When the resources in an area are not enough to support animals, the first choice for animals is to migrate. This is the case for humans and the same is true for mutant beasts.
The migration of human beings is the most obvious. Over millions of years, humans have migrated from the East African Rift Valley, occupied Asia and Europe, crossed the Bering Strait, and entered the Americas. Even Australia, which is isolated from the world, is With the distribution of savages, human migration is like a magnificent epic.
However, animal migration is a disaster in the eyes of humans, especially in the apocalypse.
After a half-day battle, Yuzhou gave a head-on blow to the mutant beasts that came down from the mountain, causing the mutant beasts to finally scatter. However, the mutant beasts could not enter the city, but they could eat crops outside the city. Yuzhou carried out several farming operations. Over the course of a month, the effect is very significant. All plain areas have been cultivated into fertile fields. When summer comes, the fields are all lush and green.
The wild boar rushed into the sky and began to dig up the soil. There were small potatoes in the field that had not grown up yet, but the wild boar did not care about this, as long as they could eat it. The corn did not even begin to pollinate, but the mutated mice ate the roots directly. After knocking the corn down, continue to eat. The corn stalks are also edible.
Other mutant animals, such as cattle, sheep, and rabbits, also gnawed on the crops in the fields. Even the grass roots were dug out and eaten. In just one day, thousands of acres of fields were destroyed by the mutant beasts.
In the conference room in Yuzhou, there was also a heated discussion on the issue of many mutant beasts. Tu Xuhuai’s meaning was very simple, that is, kill. Even if the weapons were distributed to the people, all the mutant beasts must be killed. Only by Kill all the mutant beasts, then these mutant beasts will stop destroying the farmland.
But on Zhou Xiaoxiao's side, he felt that killing mutant beasts was useless, because mutant beasts would continue to emerge from the mountains in the south. After killing one batch, there would be another batch. It was impossible to kill mutant beasts blindly. In exchange for food, the most important thing is to build a wall and deploy enough soldiers to defend the planting area to the west. You only need to repel the mutant beasts.
"If we compromise just because mutated beasts will keep appearing, won't we have to defend the farmland endlessly in the future? Soldiers are not trained to guard the farmland all the time, but to take the initiative. It will take a few years to conquer the south. Kill all the mutated beasts in the mountains, preferably extinct! If you don’t believe that the problem can’t be solved, as for these years, let’s tighten our belts first.” Tu Xuhuai said in a deep voice at this time.
As soon as he said this, everyone in the conference room began to whisper, because such an idea was too extreme and was simply inhumane.
Someone directly started to question Tu Xuhuai: "You want to kill all the animals in the mountains. Don't you think it's cruel?"
Tu Xuhuai asked coldly: "The mutated beasts are going to kill all humans. Do you think they are very kind?"
Although the strategy Tu Xuhuai is talking about now is very crude, there are many people who support it. Now that Yuzhou has finally started to farm, animals come to pick peaches. This is unbearable. It has not grown yet. The big crops have been targeted by mutant beasts, and if they are all eaten by mutant beasts, what else can everyone eat?
"The most important thing now is to guard the farmland in the plain area until the food can be harvested. Do you think these mutant beasts are enough to feed millions of people for a year? And you are saying that everyone is hungry and fighting mutant beasts? You are simply putting the cart before the horse. , we defended the farmland first, and then we can fight back." Zhou Xiaoxiao was very unconvinced, stood up and began to accuse Tu Xuhuai.
There are many people on Zhou Xiaoxiao's side who support his point of view. The simplest thing is that if you don't have a full stomach, you can't do anything. It's obviously too late to hunt down mutant beasts at this time. All that can be done now is to protect the remaining ones.
By protecting the farmland that has not been ruined and protecting the farmland in the west, this year’s food problem will be solved!
Just in time, Yang Chang, Guo Pinming, and Lu Xian returned to Yuzhou with their soldiers, and the problem of troop strength was now solved.
Zhou Xiaoxiao immediately looked at the three of them and asked directly: "You three are all the main commanders. Now, whose suggestion do you support?"
Lu Xian smiled and said: "If you support you, don't worry. Let's surround the farmland first and then talk about it."
Guo Pinming responded directly: "I support Mr. Tu's plan. In my opinion, no matter how many mutant beasts there are, as long as they endanger people's health, they must be killed. As for whether they are extinct
Species, that’s not something I can care about. Animals that are harmful to humans will have no effect if they stay!”
Lu Xian's views are more conservative, while Guo Pinming's is more radical. This is also related to their experiences. Lu Xian hid in the mountains early and escaped the worst time of the zombies. Instead, Guo Pinming's whole family
People died at the hands of zombies, which changed Guo Pinming's mentality. As long as there are evildoers, they must be eliminated. If the zombies are killed, then kill the mutant beasts!
At this time, both Lu Xian and Guo Pinming looked at Yang Chang and asked, "Whose view do you support?"
Yang Chang pondered for a moment, then suddenly looked at Chang Jianyi, who was sitting steadily above the conference room, and immediately said with a smile: "I listen to the deputy city lord! Whatever the deputy city lord decides to do, I will do it!"
After Yang Chang said this, everyone in the conference room immediately reacted. Indeed, despite the lively discussion, Chang Jianyi would only be the one to make the final decision!
Yang Chang has obviously learned to be smart and never expresses his position easily. He always follows the instructions of his superiors. This is why Shen Feng trusts him to lead many soldiers.
Suddenly, everyone set their sights on Chang Jianyi, and by the way, Chu Chaoyan also took notice. Shen Feng was not in Yuzhou, so the one who had the word was Chang Jianyi, especially since Chang Jianyi had been working for so long.
They are all guarding Yuzhou, and the important personnel were all promoted by Chang Jianyi. Now, Chang Jianyi decides on the final plan.
Chu Chaoyan whispered to Chang Jianyi: "I will propose to take people out to kill mutant beasts later, and you can just stay in the city honestly. As for these two plans, I think
They’re all good, just pick one!”
When Chang Jianyi heard what Chu Chaoyan said, she couldn't help but shake her head gently, patted her shoulder, and said: "You don't need to worry about this matter. I have already discussed this matter with Professor Chu."
, and also consulted Professor Niu.”
Immediately, Chang Jianyi stood up and said loudly to the people in the conference room: "As for the mutant beasts, our most important thing now is to eliminate them, but we must also ensure food security. Otherwise, when famine comes, everyone will
There is no good life.”
At this moment, Chang Jianyi's intention is obvious. Both Tu Xuhuai's plan and Zhou Xiaoxiao's plan must be adopted!
Chang Jianyi looked at the people in the conference room and said slowly: "Whether it is simply destroying the mutant beasts or simply defending the farmland, it is very one-sided. I decided to lead the soldiers to harvest the crops first. The most important thing now is to
The granary is filled, and as for killing the mutant beasts, that is a matter for the future! There is still half a year left, so it should be enough time to kill the mutant beasts!"
Everyone present was stunned. They all wondered if the deputy city lord was out of his mind. The crops had not grown yet, so how could they harvest them? They said that they were stupid for being pregnant for three years, and now they have not given birth to any children. The deputy city lord said:
Already stupid.
There are hundreds of thousands of people in Yuzhou City, and many of them entered the city after Yuzhou was recovered, so many people don't know what Chang Jianyi's superpower is.
But now, some insiders have remembered that Chang Jianyi's special power is to accelerate the growth of plants, whether they are trees or crops, they can accelerate ripening.
Chang Jianyi made a decision at this time and immediately gave instructions: "Immediately mobilize the people in the fields to follow me to harvest the crops. Yang Chang and Guo Pinming led the soldiers to protect us from harvesting. Lu Xian led the soldiers to keep an eye on the mutant beasts.
The trend is like this, without further ado, start taking action immediately!”
The meeting ended, and the city lord's mansion became busy instantly.
Chu Chaoyan quickly found Chang Jianyi and asked privately: "Aren't you trying to commit suicide now? You are already three months pregnant. If you go out to participate in the harvest at this time, if something unexpected happens, wouldn't you be childless?
?How will I face Shen Feng then? You should just stay in the city honestly!"
Chang Jianyi sighed helplessly, took Chu Chaoyan's hand and said: "It's not that I want to leave the city, but that I have to leave the city. It's hard to sow seeds. If I can't harvest food, won't I be hungry all year long?
, Yuzhou will be in chaos by then! After I leave Yuzhou, you stay in the city and don’t go anywhere!"
"What? How can I stay in the city? I have to protect you at all times. Shen Feng told me before he left that I must protect you and the child. If you leave the city now, I won't stop you. I won't follow you.
Who knows what will happen?" Chu Chaoyan immediately became anxious.
Chang Jianyi grabbed Chu Chaoyan's palm tightly and said seriously: "This matter can really only be entrusted to you. I might as well leave it to others. I know the relationship between you and Shen Feng. Originally,
I wanted to drive you away, but now, I can only admit your identity. Now Shen Feng is working hard outside, and I want to go out of the city to ripen the crops, and my brother is still young. Now in Yuzhou
I can only leave the side matters to you!"
Chu Chaoyan was very torn. She just wanted to protect Chang Jianyi's safety, but now that Chang Jianyi was entrusted with a big task, she suddenly felt like she was rushing to the top.
Chang Jianyi said to Chu Chaoyan seriously: "Since I regard you as my family, you have to stand up at the critical moment. Now only you can take charge of Yuzhou!"
Chu Chaoyan nodded helplessly and said, "Okay, I understand, thank you sister for taking it seriously."
When Chang Jianyi heard this title, she immediately laughed. She was actually one year older than Shen Feng and one year younger than Chu Chaoyan. As a result, Chu Chaoyan now calls herself sister. This means
It's obvious that she is now planning to admit that she is the real deal.
Chang Jianyi left the city with a hundred personal guards, while Yang Chang and Guo Pinming led 4,000 people to clear the way. If they encounter mutant beasts, they will be dealt with on the spot.
During the siege, all the mutant beasts gathered to attack, but when it came time to harm the crops, many mutant beasts immediately dispersed. If they gathered together, many animals would not be able to grab food at all, so thirty
All kinds of mutated beasts spread out directly in Yuzhou, eating crops everywhere.
Yang Chang didn't have time to rest. He just went home and met his two wives, and left the city without even having time to get intimate.
When walking on the road, Yang Chang could often see the fields on the roadside being ruined by mutant beasts, and he couldn't help but sigh.
"This is only the second year of the apocalypse. Why is the situation getting worse and worse? First there were floods, and now mutant beasts are coming to eat the food. If this continues, when will it be over?" Yang Chang complained to Guo Pinming.
In fact, Guo Pinming has been paying attention to the global situation. At this time, he could only shake his head helplessly and explained: "Didn't Yanjing say it all? It is a global change caused by the falling meteorite. The only way is to pick up the meteorite.
, only then can we hope to solve the problem of mutation."
Yang Chang shook his head and said helplessly: "It's impossible. There is a magnetic field around the meteorite and no one can get close to it. How to salvage it? I think it will be the end of the world in the future. The most important thing for everyone is to save their own lives.
"
Half a day later, Chang Jianyi led many people working in the fields to the plain area in the west. This area has not yet been harmed by mutant beasts, and the fields are planted with corn and rice.
Chang Jianyi silently used his powers, and suddenly, the plants within several square kilometers around him began to grow crazily. The rice began to ear, and the corn began to spread. In just a few minutes, the crops in the fields were ready for harvest.
However, this power also has shortcomings. Not only crops grow wildly due to the power, but also weeds and shrubs grow together, and these things will compete for nutrients in the soil.
"Start harvesting, and bring all the harvested seeds back to Yuzhou to be dried, and then put them into storage!" Luo Qing commanded beside Chang Jianyi, and now she has never left Chang Jianyi, no matter it is
If there is any danger, Luo Qing will rush over to block it as soon as possible.
Fortunately for the soldiers, many of them have seen Chang Jianyi perform his supernatural powers. Some of them have never seen or heard of it. Now that they see plants growing up with their own eyes, they can't help but start to marvel.
.
The farmers were stunned when they saw the crops in the fields growing so rapidly. When they learned that Chang Jianyi's superpower caused the situation, they even regarded Chang Jianyi as a god.
"Deputy City Lord, you are the reincarnation of Shennong. With you in Yuzhou, we will never go hungry!" Some ignorant farmers began to kneel down and worship Chang Jianyi.
Chang Jianyi immediately hid in the car. She stroked her slightly bulging belly and said to herself: "My child, you must become strong in the future. If you grow up, you can kill all the mutant beasts."
