There was a lot of discussion at the buffer city construction site.
Most areas were suppressed by guards from the Civil Armed Services Department, but there were also some construction sites where protests were particularly loud.
"Zombies climbing the wall may appear at any time. Damn it, they still let us stay at the construction site. Oil City doesn't take our lives seriously at all!"
"Yes, their senior executives in Oil City stay safe inside, but we have to take risks and work outside! It's not fair! I protest."
.....
"Stop making trouble, don't you see there are still those guards? As long as they are here, even if the wall-climbing zombies come, they will be the first to get in!"
"Shit! You sycophant, what did they give you? Speak for them. They have guns in their hands. What do we have in our hands? Are we going to kill the wall-climbing zombies with bricks?"
More and more people are caught up in emotions.
In the distance, Wu Xing, captain of the 15th Brigade of the Civil Armament Department, picked up the walkie-talkie to contact Liu Zhengming, captain of the 20th Brigade.
"Old Liu, why don't you go handle it? You have more experience."
"Okay, I'll go." Liu Zhengming's eyes were slightly cold as he looked at the workers making trouble at the construction site.
Supervisors on the construction site worked hard to maintain order.
Zhang Shi even waved his hands and shouted:
"Everyone, be quiet, stop making noise, stop making noise!"
But before he could finish speaking, a brick hit his head from behind.
thump!
Zhang Shi fell to the ground, blood pouring from his head.
But he got up immediately, "Who? Who did it?"
He looked behind him, but there were a bunch of people behind him, so he couldn't tell who had done it.
At this moment, Liu Zhengming walked over.
I saw the blood on Zhang Shi's head. The blood was slowly flowing from his head to his face.
Seeing this scene, Liu Zhengming felt gloomy and scary.
He was a support staff member who was transferred from the headquarters base a year ago and watched the trading market grow from scratch with his own eyes, building it up bit by bit.
He also climbed up from the bottom step by step to the position of captain of the Civil Armed Forces Division.
So he knows the survivors at the bottom very well because he was once one of them.
"Who did this?!"
Anger burst out in Liu Zhengming's eyes, "Say again, who did it? Come forward. If you come forward now, your life will be spared!"
The workers in front took a few steps back and lowered their heads, no one wanted to admit it.
"three!"
"two!"
"one!"
Liu Zhengming loaded the gun and laughed angrily.
"I gave you a chance but it didn't work. Now I have no chance."
Then he looked at the group of people in front and shouted:
"Surround all these people. Since you don't want to say who did it? Then lock them all up!"
Crash--
The members of the Civil Armed Forces Division behind him quickly surrounded the dozens of people in front.
The gun was pointed at them.
"No, it has nothing to do with us, he did it!" an old man pointed at a man on his right and shouted.
"Yes, he did it, I saw it."
"He did it, it has nothing to do with us."
In an instant, everyone pointed their finger at a young man.
"You." The young man looked at the old man next to him.
"Didn't you make me throw it away?"
When the old man heard this, he was so frightened that he shivered.
"I didn't, don't slander me!"
"That's you!"
"Pull them out!" Liu Zhengming shouted.
Four members of the Civil Armed Forces Division walked over and pulled them out.
The young man still wanted to resist, but a member of the Civil Armed Forces Division hit his head with a gun, causing his head to bleed, and he became honest.
Push the two of them to the ground and kneel down.
Only then did the young man feel fear, "No, no, no, it's not the commander, the leader, I, I, I did this after listening to Old Man Liu's instigation."
"You are slandering others, but I didn't say anything." the old man said angrily.
Bang!
Phew!
Liu Zhengming shot the young man in the head, and blood splashed all over the old man's face.
The old man's whole body was shaking like a sieve, and the skin on his face was more like waves, shaking in circles.
With trembling hands, he kowtowed to Liu Zhengming.
"Death is imminent, and you still don't tell the truth! It doesn't matter if you don't tell me, I have plenty of ways!" Liu Zhengming angrily scolded.
Under Liu Zhengming's roar, the old man finally confessed.
"I, I, I, I just mentioned it, but I didn't expect him to take it seriously. Please, please spare me, I still have a grandson..."
Bang!
Gunshot!
Old man, die.
The workers at the top, who were originally angry, suddenly calmed down.
Killed two people in a row.
Blood splattered all over the floor.
mob.
When a bunch of people get together, the IQ of the group will drop to an extremely low level.
They will be overwhelmed by emotions and immersed in some kind of excitement.
The most effective way to crack this emotion is to kill.
Let them see blood and live people dying in front of them.
Let them know that the result of resistance is to become a corpse.
In this way, they will calm down quickly.
Fear of death is human survival instinct.
They calmed down at this time and were suddenly frightened by the protest just now.
Liu Zhengming's eyes were threatening and deep as he looked at these workers, his sharp eyes seeming to pierce their souls.
"Take out the number plates of these two people and report them to the trading market management office to trace their immediate family members! Investigate thoroughly!"
He didn't finish the rest.
A heavy chapter in troubled times.
It is estimated that the family members of the old and the young will not escape death.
How dare you attack managers, this is the most unacceptable thing for them.
If you fight in the trading market, you will die, let alone attack the supervisors.
Although Zhang Shi was only a construction site supervisor and a fourth-level personnel, he was also a manager on the construction site.
But the workers dared to attack the managers. This is nothing to say and they will be killed.
Their family members may have done nothing wrong. Before the end of the world, if one person does something and the other is responsible, just kill him or her.
But this is in the last days. Who knows if you will hold a grudge if you kill your relatives and cause turmoil then.
In order to avoid this kind of trouble, I might as well kill them all.
In the last days, interests outweigh moral standards and human hearts.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Yes." Several members of the Civil Armed Forces Division walked over and dragged the two corpses away.
They didn't think there was anything strange about this. A few years ago, the city lord would have dealt with this matter.
It is estimated that if these two people had not been killed, none of these people would have survived.
It is better to kill by mistake than to let anyone go.
Killing is the fastest way to calm people down and restore order.
Liu Zhengming looked at this group of people and said in a solemn tone:
"Everyone who participated in this trouble will have 10 points deducted. This is an announcement, not a discussion with you."
Ten points are equivalent to the points earned by these workers for 20 days of hard work!
This is worse than killing them.
But given the lessons learned from the past, no one dared to protest.
The two pools of blood on the ground are still there.
No one dared to resist.
Liu Zhengming suddenly raised his head and looked at the other workers around him.
He shouted loudly: "Anyone who wants to quit the construction can quit now."
"If you can do it, do it. If you don't want to do it, there are plenty of people who can do it!"
Without saying a word, he turned and left.
The remaining members of the Civil Armed Forces Division stayed here to register the names and number plates of the troublemaking workers one by one, and then deducted 10 points from them.
The reason why Liu Zhengming dared to do this was because he received Lao Luo's greeting in advance.
Let him act resolutely and control the reaction on the construction site.
If necessary, some people can be killed to maintain order.
After Ju Tianrui made the broadcast, many workers on the construction site raised objections.
But I didn't dare to stop what I was doing and resist blatantly like I did just now.
For many workers, it is not easy to participate in construction projects.
So they cherish it more and don't dare to cause trouble.
People like this group just now are just a special case.
But special cases will be targeted. Under Liu Zhengming's thunderous methods, after killing two people, peace returned here.
Not far from the construction site, some workers saw this scene with their own eyes.
"Haha, I just said, don't mess around..."
"Yeah, I finally got the job at this time. Where else can I go to work if I don't work on the construction site? I'm so idle!"
They all know what it means for zombies to climb the wall during the day.
It means that once they leave the trading market,
First, there is no safe environment, and second, there is no stable source of income.
It is safest to stay in the trading market.
And, they should be grateful that the bazaar is willing to continue building.
If the buffer city wall does not continue to be built, they will not be able to obtain points and use the points to purchase food.
In the trading market, points are equivalent to money before the end of the world.
Before the end of the world, if you don't have money, it's okay. At worst, you can pick up garbage to eat. If that doesn't work, just grab and steal.
If you find out, the most you can do is go to jail. The prison also provides food, so you won't starve to death.
But now if you rob or steal in the trading market,
Once discovered, there is only death.
The construction of the buffer city wall was equivalent to giving them a way to survive.
There are many workers who want to understand this, so they know very well that they have to work here even if there are no guards to protect them.
If you don't do it, you'll end up dead, but if you do, you might be able to survive.
Therefore, the workers at the buffer city construction site quickly returned to normal order.
Of course, there are many workers on the construction site of the buffer city, and the base is large, so there are always some people who can't figure it out.
Propose to exit construction and return to the trading market.
The supervisors did not retain them or deduct their points.
After releasing them, their number tags were registered.
I was given a label of never being hired.
This means that in the future, these workers who temporarily quit construction will no longer be employed in all construction, transportation, etc. tasks in the trading market.
From now on, if this type of people want to survive in the trading market, there is only one way to go, and that is exchange.
Run out and find the scarce materials released by the trading market, and take these materials to the trading market to redeem points.
There is no other way for them to go except this way.
If you don’t have points in the trading market, you can’t survive at all.
The twists and turns on the construction site were just a small episode and passed quickly.
.......
Oil City.
Lao Luo called Ding Meng and others to deploy emergency plans one by one.
"Concerning the issue of personnel evacuation, you need to inform the Black Hand and Zheng Shiwu in the northwest."
"There are also lunatics stationed in Southern Paradise. Let the lunatics return to the trading market as soon as possible."
"Yes." Ding Meng nodded and replied.
"Also, the sentry towers around Oil City should also be notified so that they should not open the iron fences during the day."
"Over there at the mine, strengthen the defense."
.......
As emergency orders were issued one after another, departments such as the Operations Department, Civil Arms Department, Communications Department, Internal Affairs Department, etc. in the Oil City and Trading Market began to mobilize.
Each department coordinates the division of labor and cooperates.
Advance together.
At this moment, the Oil City is operating from top to bottom like a huge machine. These people are like the gears on the machine, supporting the operation of the trading market and the Oil City.
An hour later.
The exploration team led by Chen Delong successfully returned to Oil City.
And reported in person to Third Uncle, Lao Luo and others.
"Minister, look, this is the video we captured." Chen Delong handed the camera to his third uncle.
The third uncle took it and looked at the video in the camera.
Then he handed it to Lao Luo.
"You mean, it suddenly appeared?" Third Uncle asked with a faint look in his eyes.
"Yes, when we found out, those wall-climbing zombies were right behind us. If we hadn't turned on the ultraviolet lights in advance, we would have..."
"Well, I understand, let's go down."
Chen Delong nodded, turned around and left the third uncle's office with An Sheng and others.
After watching the video, Lao Luo said seriously:
"Minister, now that this matter is settled, I have put in place an emergency plan to minimize the impact of wall-climbing zombies."
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Hmm."
The third uncle nodded and said:
"I hope so. I'll give it a try from the headquarters base and ask when the ultraviolet lamps from the factory will be delivered."
"Lao Huang came over to me just now and told me that the inventory of ultraviolet lamps was running low."
"So fast? Wasn't there more than 2,000 units before?" Lao Luo asked in surprise.
Zhong Chuchu next to her explained:
"They're all sold out. After Director Ju's broadcast, the traffic in store No. 12 surged. Many people went there to buy ultraviolet lamps..."
"Okay."
Lao Luo suddenly said again:
"Minister, there is one more thing. The black hands we sent to the northwest have been unable to contact Zheng Shiwu. Moreover, they are too far away from us. It will take a long time to return..."
"Do you want us to send a helicopter to pick them up after they leave the Northwest Territory?"
If Lao Luo didn't mention them, the third uncle would have almost forgotten these two people.
After all, it had been too long, and Lao Luo had always been responsible for contacting the two of them.
Black Hand and Zheng Shiwu must come back because they took a lot of photos of the Northwest and various recorded materials.
With these materials in hand, you can have a more detailed and in-depth understanding of the Northwest.
The key is that there are wall-climbing zombies coming out during the day, so it won't be easy for the two of them to come back.
The third uncle thought for a moment and said:
"Okay, let's go to West Market to pick them up then."
"Let them retreat as soon as possible. When can we contact them?"
Lao Luo replied: "We can't contact them. In order to save power, they have turned off their radio stations. We can only wait for them to contact us."
"But I asked the Communications Department to answer the call at any time. Once I contact them, I will tell them to retreat."
"Okay." Third uncle stood up and stretched.
"Go on, everyone, I'll go to the trading market."
It's not good to stay in the oil city all the time. Besides, he is in a high position and has not been down to the grassroots. He certainly doesn't know much about the grassroots.
Therefore, almost every few days, the third uncle would simply dress up and take Lao Qin to the trading market.
As for the safety issue, it is not a problem at all with the third uncle's skill and disguise skills.
Sending someone to protect him? That would simply be an insult to his status as a military king.
