Chapter 1421 Do you really want the end of the world to end?
City Lord's Mansion.
Everyone looked at Uncle San in horror. To kill the leader of a force from among thousands of people under tight layers of defense was nothing short of a fantasy in their eyes.
But Jackal and the others beside Third Uncle looked as normal, as if this kind of thing was not a big deal to them.
After all, they've really done it before.
If anyone else said such things, Li Yu would tell him to go away, just to brag.
But when the third uncle said such things, Li Yu knew that the third uncle never spoke big words. Since the third uncle dared to say this, it meant that the third uncle was sure that he could do it.
only......
Li Yu also knew about the previous experience of his third uncle. A long time ago, he heard Lao Qin and the others mention that in the battle in Southeast Asia, a team member died.
From the original seven-person team, it became six people, and then the superiors issued the final mission and disappeared in various places.
If it hadn't been for the arrival of this apocalypse and various coincidences, the six of them might never be able to see each other again in this life.
After so many years, Third Uncle and the others are already in their forties, and they still have to risk huge risks to carry out beheading operations...
It is possible that they will succeed, but it is also possible that Uncle San and the others will go and never come back.
Li Yu took a deep breath and said slowly:
"Don't go up to Third Uncle, I don't need you to risk beheading for the time being."
"The key now is this big boss in the northwest. From what Xu Zhi said, this big boss is not a simple person, and his thoughts are difficult to guess."
"I have no objection to talks, but even if we talk, they may still manipulate us, so we must take precautions."
"In addition, we are bound to get the meteorite from the outer space, and we must get it!"
"Let's hold our troops on hold for the time being. Da Zhangshu Base, Oil City, and the three places in the north must strengthen patrols around them. Otherwise, it will be too late when they arrive at the city..."
"That...."
The uncle asked: "Are Xu Zhi's group of people still being released? Cannon has been interrogated, and the judge has killed so many of them... I feel that there is not much meaning in releasing them again."
"let it go."
Li Yu squinted his eyes and said in a serious tone:
"If you don't put it back, how can you inform them to talk about it?"
"However, we can't put them all back. Xu Zhi will stay and the other three will be put back."
From the mouths of Liu Hong and others, they learned that Xu Zhi was a high-status person in the northwest, and that he had followed the big boss before the end of the world and was the person most familiar with the big boss.
No matter whether the boss thinks highly of Xu Zhi or not, he always has the initiative when he has a hostage in his hands.
Besides... in Li Yu's opinion, it would be a pity to kill this Xu Zhi, and keeping it in his hands might be useful in the future.
If the third uncle really went to behead him, and the northwest was leaderless... wouldn't that be an opportunity...
The things to be done immediately are almost finalized, and the long-term plan will not be clear for a while.
Facing the northwest, we will definitely need to conduct repeated communication and discussions based on the future situation.
So Li Yu said to everyone:
"Let's talk about this for now."
"three things."
"1. The Northern Territory and Oil City are under normal construction. The planting areas in the Northern Territory will still be carried out according to the original plan. We cannot interrupt our previous plans because of the emergence of the Northwest."
“2. The three places must strengthen patrol activities around them.
There used to be sentry towers around the northern border, but now they need to be gradually utilized.
Oil City can also build new sentry towers within ten or twenty kilometers of the surrounding area, and make use of the vast number of survivors. Once a strange and powerful convoy is discovered, report it immediately, and you will be rewarded for reporting it.
The Da Zhangshu Base will remain as it was before, with five satellite cities plus cooperation personnel who are out on missions, and daily patrols for maintenance."
"3. Xu Zhi will stay, and the other three will treat them. They will be given a car the day after tomorrow and asked to drive back by themselves. Let them inform their boss and meet in the West City in a month to discuss in detail."
....
"That Xu Zhi kept him, in case the big boss in the northwest was angry... would it be..." Lao Xie hesitated for a few seconds before asking.
The second uncle’s voice came faintly from the radio station:
"If you really cared so much, you wouldn't let him come."
"Forehead...."
This seems to make some sense, but it doesn't seem to be completely true.
Li Yu frowned and said:
"It doesn't matter. He has killed so many of them anyway. The anger is definitely there, but I think since he can firmly control such a powerful team, he will not lose his mind."
Everyone nodded thoughtfully.
The clock on the wall of the conference room showed that it was already half past one in the morning.
It was already ten o'clock when Da Pao came over with his voice recorder. He played for one and a half hours and recorded at 11:30, and then chatted for nearly two hours.
Starting in the evening, after Li Yu arrived here, he began to hold a reporting meeting, which lasted for several hours.
Li Yu and the others had a meeting from six o'clock in the evening until one thirty in the morning.
Lao Xie couldn't bear it anymore and yawned from time to time.
"The meeting is over, let's take a rest early."
"Second uncle, I have cut off contact."
"good."
Sizzling——
The radio station was turned off by Li Yu.
"City Lord, let's go down."
"City Lord..."
.....
Li Yu waved his hand, and Lao Xie, Dapao and others went downstairs.
Even Li Tie and Li Gang left here and went downstairs to rest.
There were only two people left in the conference room, Li Yu and his third uncle.
The third uncle glanced at Li Yu, "Are you tired? Go sit on the roof of the building?"
"Okay." Li Yu nodded and walked upstairs with his third uncle.
Although there is a shortage of electricity here in the north, the power supply to the City Lord's Mansion building can still be provided 24 hours a day without power restrictions.
The two took a helicopter to the roof of the ninth floor.
The third uncle took out a cigarette and lit it.
"Are you going to smoke?" The third uncle looked at Li Yu.
Li Yu shook his head and said, "Quit."
Watching Uncle San smoking makes me feel a little itchy.
But he has a very high level of self-discipline. He quits smoking whenever he says he wants to.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The third uncle nodded and said with emotion: "It's good to quit."
"It's better to quit."
The third uncle repeated it again, then walked to the edge of the roof, overlooking the entire northern border through the railing.
There was silence for a long time.
Li Yu didn't speak, but stood quietly beside his third uncle, watching the night view of the north with him.
A cigarette, Feng smokes half of it, and Uncle San smokes half of it.
During this period, the third uncle didn't say a word.
After smoking a cigarette, the third uncle stepped on the butt of the cigarette under his feet and rubbed it.
Half a moment.
"Do you want this apocalypse to end?"
Suddenly, the third uncle made a surprising statement and asked such a question.
Before Li Yu could speak, the third uncle continued leisurely:
"In fact, the end of the world is a disaster for most people."
"But the changes of the times are an opportunity for a very small number of people. You seized the opportunity and led the rise of Da Zhangshu Base, step by step until now."
"If the apocalypse does not end, and if the threat of zombies does not become stronger, in fact... maybe for some people with vested interests, this will be good."
"What do you think?"
The third uncle issued a soul torture.
Does Li Yu really want to develop a zombie vaccine?
After hearing this question from his third uncle, Li Yu was a little confused.
In the beginning, when the Da Zhangshu base was weak, he always thought about developing a zombie vaccine so that he could return to a peaceful world and the people in the base could live in a safe environment.
However, as the base gradually becomes bigger and stronger, the safety of the Da Zhangshu base is basically no problem.
He gradually became more ambitious...
To be honest, now that his third uncle asked him this question, he was a little frightened.
Because he does not really want the end of the world to end, and it seems that it is good to keep it that way...
However, he also hopes that the apocalypse will end.
When the apocalypse ends and the world returns to peace, can he still have his current status and strength?
uncertain.
Very strange psychology, but very realistic.
He is a kind person, but now he seems to be less kind.
He had no ability to save the world before, but he could think with peace of mind, "I want to protect my family and friends, the world is not important."
But now that he seems to have the power to change all this, he is hesitant.
One word awakens the dreamer.
Seeing that Li Yu didn't answer, the third uncle said:
"Small ponds cannot raise sharks, only the ocean can raise big fish."
"The structure will be enlarged, and how much capacity will there be to do most things?"
After the third uncle finished speaking, he walked downstairs.
Li Yu's eyes were filled with a shadow, and after a long time he raised his head.
Looking at the sky full of stars, my mind suddenly opened up.
Change the world? Save the world?
Li Yu suddenly laughed.
why not,
In fact, it does not conflict with what he wants.
He doesn't want to be a hero,
But he wants the good people to live and the bad people to die.
Since it is possible to develop a vaccine, it must be done.
Since it is possible to restore the world to its original state, why not do it?
The third uncle is right. Since you have the ability and the confidence, why don't you just go ahead and do it.
As the night grew darker, Li Yu blew the wind and sat on the roof for a long time.
The third uncle's words woke him up and made him reflect. He kept thinking and thinking. He went downstairs only after he had figured it out.
Li Yu figured it out. The moment he figured it out, his eyes suddenly became much brighter.
.....
In the building on the east side of the outer city, Xu Zhi and others were let down from the wall by guards.
There was a terrible stench in that room, and even the whole building stank.
"How the hell should I clean this room..." A combatant looked helplessly at the room. After looking at it for two more seconds, he felt like vomiting again.
"I'm afraid this room is no longer usable."
"Rinse it with a water hose tomorrow and give it a try."
.....
.....
Stayed up all night.
The next day.
The Sun Also Rises.
Since the thunderstorm disaster ended, the temperature has been getting hotter day by day.
During the day, on the outer wall of the city, security personnel took turns to be on duty on the wall, changing their posts every hour and returning to the shady sentry tower.
There are actually three doctors in the northern border, but their medical skills are relatively average.
Xu Zhi knew that the wounds of the four of them were rather complicated.
This gave these doctors a big headache, so the third uncle asked the judge to help.
But when the judge saw these four people, he was greatly surprised.
None of these people's injuries were fatal, but they were very strange.
He had no idea how these wounds were caused.
This was the most difficult injury he had ever encountered.
.....
Li Yu was in a meeting yesterday and did not conduct a careful inspection of the northern border.
The current tasks for the northwest have been clearly explained, but what needs to be done still needs to be done.
Went to the basement and saw the zombie generator being assembled.
"Old Zhou."
"City Lord."
Lao Zhou turned his head and saw the city lord coming, so he quickly put down the tools in his hands and took off his gloves.
"How long does it take to assemble these generators?"
"Well... a week or so. Now we can actually slowly catch zombies and bring them in to generate electricity."
"Can it meet the power consumption needed here in the north?"
"Okay, no problem at all. I just increased the number of zombie generators by 50% based on the power consumption here in the north."
"That's good."
After Li Yu completed a tour here, he went to the greenhouse that had been set up. He did not see Zhang Qiwu. According to other planting staff, Zhang Qiwu went to another greenhouse to cultivate crop seedlings.
There is enough food in the northern border. When we first cleared the northern border, we found a lot of food here.
Part of it was transported back to Oil City, and the rest was enough to feed the people who stayed here for the first half to a year.
After all, there are two to three thousand people from outside the city here, as well as hundreds or even thousands of reinforcements from the Oil City, so the food consumption is quite large.
If these originally affiliated members of the Northern Territory were to guard the Northern Territory here full-time and plant crops, they would definitely have to be given food. They could not just work without food.
It will take at least four or five months to produce grain on a large scale in the north, and the grain stored in the north is enough.
After walking around the inner and outer city, Li Yu came to the outer city wall.
Along the way, he saw many familiar faces that he had not seen for a long time.
Such as Guo Peng, Gongsun Jing, Niu Shoufu, Zhu Xiao, Shouhou, Ansheng, Chen Delong, Ji Zi, Zhuo Jun, Lao Huang, Xiaoye, Guifei...
"City Lord." After seeing Li Yu, the imperial concubine's eyes seemed to be shining.
"Well, you're still used to it in the north, right?"
The imperial concubine nodded quickly and said: "It's not bad. Thank you City Lord for your concern."
Li Yu smiled and said, "Concubine, you look much more capable."
“Quite impressive.”
In the past, his impression of the imperial concubine was that she was relatively strong, but her complexion was very poor, and her whole person seemed to be weak and stubborn.
But now the aura exuded by the whole person is stronger, and it seems to be stronger and fuller.
Hearing Li Yu's compliment, the imperial concubine smiled and her eyes turned into little stars.
Li Yu just chatted briefly and left. He generally treats people in the base in a gentle and down-to-earth manner.
This also makes many people in the Da Zhangshu base have a favorable impression of him.
Although the killing of Jia Tan and others left a shadow on many people, they were killed by cannons, and it was those people who deserved to die.
It does not affect everyone's recognition of the city lord.
Li Yu was on patrol today and was followed by He Chao to let him know the situation here.
When He Chao came here for the first time and saw how big the North was, his jaw dropped.
I originally thought that Oil City was already very impressive, but I didn't expect that the northern border would be so impressive.
In the past few years, how many things have the city lord and the others done outside...
Since most of the personnel stationed in the northern border here know He Chao, the personnel in the outer city of Da Zhangshu Base are under the management of He Chao when they are at the headquarters and are relatively familiar with him.
So He Chao got used to it quickly and felt a little familiar with driving.
Only those originally affiliated with the Northern Territory and now those from the outer cities of the Northern Territory, it was the first time for He Chao and these people to meet each other.
