In such a natural disaster that lasted for many days, the zombie wave flooded too many bases and killed too many humans.
Those who survive are the lucky ones.
The sun shines on the earth.
They have never felt that being able to live in the sunshine is a great gift.
Such a luxurious and beautiful thing.
Many times, it is after experiencing more painful things and harsher environments that you feel that everything is so beautiful now.
This is how they think in the apocalypse.
......gather in harvest
Big camphor tree base.
This time, as the sun came out, light returned to the sky and the earth.
Then he put away the supernumerary personnel on the wall and the guns of the people in the first outer city.
In the urn city, Li Yu looked at the black ground, black walls, black buildings, and even the people in the urn city, who were all black from head to toe.
He said to them: "We have won! Next, everyone has a good rest. Non-staff personnel, this time everyone's points will be increased by ten points! And the personnel in the first outer city, everyone's points will also be increased by ten points! Thank you everyone for your hard work
, without everyone’s persistence, we might not be able to wait for victory!”
After saying that, everyone started applauding.
Everyone also applauded excitedly.
There was a chorus of cheers.
If the snow stops, it is a small stage victory.
So now that the zombies have evacuated and the sun has come out, it will be the grand victory of the final counterattack!
This is a huge victory.
Victory naturally requires celebration!
Li Yu then ordered Aunt Zhou and others to prepare food, wine and other things.
There will be a banquet the day after tomorrow.
Everyone started clearing the snow from the base.
Under the sun, this black snow looks extremely disgusting.
It was like black paint was sprayed everywhere.
There are people everywhere, holding shovels, and the sound of shoveling snow.
...
The second outer city.
After Xiao Hu and the others came down from the wall, with smiles on their faces, they said to Zhu Xiao who came down with them: "Butcher, you heard what Mr. Li said just now, our contribution points can skyrocket again this time."
gather in harvest
Zhu Xiao had some reluctance on his face. The food he had eaten these past few days was the best he had eaten since the end of the world.
"Well, hurry up and complete the mission. I want to join the Da Zhangshu Base as soon as possible. Their food is so good." Zhu Xiao said.
Xiao Hu naturally knew him very well. He shook his head and said, "Take your time. Our points have increased a lot. If we do one or two more tasks with slightly higher points, we should be able to enter the city."
Zhu Xiao nodded, with strong yearning bursting out of his eyes.
As they returned to the Second Outer City, many people in the Second Outer City came out.
Staying indoors all day is really frustrating.
He Chao and the others came over with some shovels and brooms and told them to clean up the snow on the ground and in the residential buildings, and put it all into the crops and farmland.
These volcanic ash are very fertile, and next season's crops should have a good harvest.
In the first outer city.
Lao Qin and others were also clearing the snow. They had just cleared the snow on the wall, and now they came to the first outer city to clean it.
As for the inner city, Lai Dongsheng, Ding Jiu and others were also asked to clean up.
It took a whole day of cleaning!
The entire base looked like it had a different atmosphere after the black snow was cleared away.
Happy, clean and tidy.
After cleaning up the black snow in the base, the third uncle asked him to be on duty at the gate. Li Yu couldn't resist him, so he agreed to his request.
Originally, Li Yu saw that everyone was tired these days, so he asked them all to rest, leaving ten people behind, and he could accompany them and continue to work on the wall.
Unexpectedly, the third uncle stepped forward and asked Li Yu to go back and rest.
In the end, Li Yu couldn't refuse and got down from the wall.
Although the temperature is still below zero, it gradually rises after the sun comes out.
The snow is also gradually melting, and after melting, volcanic ash is revealed.
Some of these volcanic ash were sealed in factories by Anya, most of them were piled directly in farmland, and some were moved into underground plantations.
Li Yu returned to the room, turned on the faucet, and took a hot bath.
In the past few months, Li Yu has not had time to cut his hair. His beard is unkempt and his hair is very long.
Li Yu took out a clipper and pushed it directly toward his head.
Only less than a centimeter of hair is left.
After washing his face, the bathroom floor tiles turned black. This was all the volcanic ash that stuck to his skin after the black snow on his skin melted.
The bath water slowly turned from black to colorless.
After cleaning his body, Li Yu walked out of the bathroom and felt refreshed.
Light a cigarette and sit on the windowsill.
Open the windows and let the cold air from the windows blow into the room.
The air seems to have become much fresher.
The cold wind blew, but Li Yu didn't feel too cold.
It is evening now and the sun is shining in the room.
The evening light is warm but not harsh.
Li Yu squinted his eyes and looked at the sunset outside the window, as if he hadn't seen the sunset for a long time.
.....
With the end of the zombie wave and the sky returning to normal, the survivors breathed a long sigh of relief.
In the apocalyptic world, nothing is simple. You can only endure it and endure it.
How painful it was before, how happy it will be later.
It was extremely uncomfortable, but once I got over it, I felt so comfortable.
Li Yu was in the room, watching the sunset for a full hour.
As before, he went to the dining room to eat.
Seeing Zhou Weiguo running in from the dining room, his face was filled with joy.
"Old Zhou, I'm so happy." Li Yu said to Zhou Weiguo with a smile.
When Zhou Weiguo heard Li Yu calling him, he ran over excitedly and said to Li Yu: "Three sows have given birth to more than thirty piglets."
This is good news. Just after recovery, the sow has given birth.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "That's good, good job, old Zhou." At the same table, the second uncle heard the news about Zhou Weiguo and said happily to Zhou Weiguo.
Zhou Weiguo scratched his head, with a smile on his face.
Li Yu said to Zhou Weiguo: "Okay, you go to eat."
Zhou Weiguo left immediately.
Li Yu saw his second uncle coming, so he picked up his lunch box and sat next to his second uncle.
"Second uncle, the weather has returned to normal now, and a series of arrangements in our base will continue to be advanced." Li Yu sat next to his second uncle and said.
The second uncle thought for a while and asked, "Do you mean we still want to expand the base?"
Li Yu hesitated for a moment, organized his words in his mind, and said: "This is just one aspect, the other aspect is the Western League!"
After hearing the last four words Li Yu said, the second uncle's mood also fluctuated.
Western Conference.
This is a place that has been mentioned repeatedly a few months ago.
"Xiaoyu, what do you mean?" The second uncle thought for a while and asked tentatively.
Li Yu did not hesitate and said: "Gan Gaojie was killed by me. Over at Juzizhoutou, according to Ju Tianrui and the others, that Gan Shang was also a narrow-minded person. Although it has been so long, but what happens later?
If they find out, they will cause trouble for us sooner or later, so it is better for us to solve this trouble early before they find us."
The second uncle frowned. He didn't recommend that Li Yu go out so soon.
The zombie outbreak has just ended, and the weather has only recovered for a few days.
I just don’t know what’s going on outside right now.
If you go out rashly, you might get some surprises.
"Why don't we wait?" The second uncle expressed his opinion tentatively, "After all, it has just stabilized now, at least it will take a while."
Li Yu still advised: "I think now is a good opportunity. The zombie wave has just ended, so we should take advantage of this moment to deal with them in one go. When they slow down, it will be difficult for us to deal with them."
The second uncle stopped persuading, so he said: "Then when do you plan to go over to find them?"
Li Yu counted the days and said: "This time, I plan to call Ju Tianrui and the others. After all, they are familiar with Gan Shang and there are unresolved grievances between them. It would be more appropriate to take them with me. As for
In terms of time, I think it will be a week at most.”
"Okay, let's talk to the internal discussion meeting when the time comes. If you bring this matter up, I will support you then. Also, I heard from Sister Zhou that if you ask her to prepare the ingredients, is this going to be another banquet?
"The second uncle asked, thinking that Aunt Zhou and some people were busy this morning.
Li Yu saw that the dining room was filling up with people one after another, and said to his second uncle: "Yes, I think everyone has worked hard during this period, and the mood is too depressed. It will be better if I ask everyone to relax.
Some."
The second uncle nodded and asked: "I have no objection, but I don't have a figure for how much food we still have. In addition, if a banquet is held, what will happen to the non-staff and collaborators in the Second Outer City?
?"gather in harvest
Li Yu struggled for a few seconds and said: "We moved 800 tons of grain from Luo Tianyan, plus the food I hoarded before
180 tons. Over the past year, plus the grain harvested last season, there are 200 tons in total, a total of 1,180 tons.
But in the past two years, including cooperation with people outside the base to exchange grain, a total of 150 tons of grain were consumed, and now there are 1,030 tons left. The grain is enough.
As for the non-staff and collaborators, this time they were considered honest and contributed to some extent.
I think we can lower their specifications appropriately and provide them with a meal. This can even increase the unity of the base.
And this time, Xiao Hu, Zhu Xiao, Guo Peng and others all performed very well, and some of them are about to reach their points for entering the city.
For example, Zuo Ruxue and Xiao Hu have been cooperating with the base for seven or eight months, so we can actually let them join this banquet together."
The second uncle heard the number from Li Yu's mouth.
Start thinking about it in your mind:
There are now nearly 300 people in the base in the inner and outer cities combined.
There are 160 non-staff personnel and 1,380 cooperative personnel.
The total adds up to 1840 people.
Calculated based on 400 kilograms of grain per person per year,
To feed everyone, 368 tons of grain would be consumed every year.
The food stored in the base alone is enough to last three years.
But at present, they have less than 300 people, and they only need about 40 tons of food a year. With the addition of non-staff and cooperating personnel, the annual consumption is more than ten tons.
It consumes almost 60 tons here.
Consumption of 368 tons and 60 tons.
It is enough to see the necessity of the four-level system of Dazhangshu Base.
Blind expansion will only lead to accelerated collapse.
Therefore, Li Yu has always emphasized two core points:
First, we must ensure that the annual grain output exceeds 50% of the annual grain use!
Second, we must ensure that the food in the warehouse is enough for everyone in the city inside and outside the base to last for five years!
These are two safety lines that cannot be changed.
Therefore, the base is constantly expanding and expanding the planting range.
But now due to various natural disasters, they have increased the indoor planting area to 40 acres.
The annual output of vegetables and grain can total 56 tons.
...........
Holding a banquet, nearly two thousand people, this is not a small sum of money.
Then the second uncle said: "There are so many people, and my body always feels sore."
Li Yu hesitated for a moment and then said: "Actually, we don't give them much food. We only gave them a few kilograms on credit before, but they need to work every day.
The human-powered generator alone generates more than 400 degrees of electricity for several hours a day.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! If they had not been generating electricity, when it snowed a few days ago, the wind was not strong, and the power was actually quite tight.
The electricity they generate is of great help to us. As you know, Uncle Er, the mobile knife is easy to use, but it consumes too much electricity.
Originally, the electricity we saved from photovoltaic power generation was enough for us to use for more than a month. With the addition of wind power generation, it is actually enough to last us for a long time.
But we didn't consider that moving the knife would consume so much electricity, and we used it too frequently.
Therefore, I just want to say that in fact, for those in the Second Outer City, in addition to the non-staff personnel who went to the wall to support, other cooperating personnel also made certain contributions.
We should give thanks for these contributions with a full meal, I think."
When the second uncle heard what Li Yu said, he felt that what Li Yu said was indeed reasonable.
He stopped refuting and asked, "What kind of configuration will it be?"
Li Yu thought for a while and said: "You can use sweet potatoes as the staple food. There are too many of them. In addition, you can give some vegetables to them. The most important thing is to make a pot of broth for them. That's it.
As for the First Outer City, I also need to talk about something. Those people under He Chao, such as Xu Zhen, Deng Ben, and Fu Sheng, have been working hard and making great contributions. For example, Xu Zhen, he
In terms of sewer drainage, Fusheng did an excellent job, and Fusheng also made a huge contribution in the previous cement production.
The most important thing is that they are the oldest people in the First Outer City.
Now in the entire base, apart from He Chao, there are two little girls who can enter to study, and no one else has entered.
I think that the three of them, whether in terms of loyalty, ability, or other aspects, have met the standards to enter the inner city.
Deng Ben's daughter is still studying in the base.
There must be some people in the inner city, otherwise they will lose motivation if they are too strict."
The second uncle nodded slightly when he heard the names of these people. The three of them were all people from well-off families. Although they were not particularly strong in combat like Lao Qin and others, they had outstanding abilities in other fields.
And the most important thing is that these few people are loyal enough to the base.
Deng Ben played a huge role in Luo Tianyan before, and he often traveled outside. Every time there was the latest news, he would know it from his mouth.
Be smart enough and know how to be grateful. You
Fusheng worked very hard when making cement, and he and He Chao followed Li Yu and the others to many places before, almost taking He Chao with him to Fusheng.
Xu Zhen, who has reformed and upgraded the sewers in the entire base, is also an old man who has joined the outer city. He is usually very low-key and doesn't talk much, but anyone with a discerning eye can see what he does.
In terms of loyalty, after such a long period of investigation, in Li Yu's opinion, it is reliable enough.
The second uncle then nodded and said, "Okay, let's see what their opinions are when we have a meeting. You can also see what they think."
In the base, a large regular meeting is held every week to communicate about the development and construction of the base, as well as personnel arrangements and deployment.
The people attending the meeting are currently all core personnel in the base.
Such as: Li Yu, Li Hang, Li's father, uncle, second uncle, third uncle, second uncle, fourth uncle, uncle, Li Tie, Li Gang, Li Yuan, Lai Dongsheng, Ding Jiu, Dapao, Yang Tianlong, Song Min,
Lao Lu.
The people who can participate in this meeting are the most core personnel in the base.
Of course, grandpa and grandpa have long ceased to manage things in the base.
The main members are all Li Yu's immediate family members, which is understandable. After all, the leadership in the base must be in the hands of Li Yu and others.
Li Yu nodded and replied: "Okay, I will mention it to everyone when the time comes."
The two communicated some things again and then left.
After Li Yu finished eating, he saw that it was getting dark and was about to leave the dining room and return to the room.
Then he saw Lao Lu walking towards him in a hurry.
"Mr. Li, your third uncle asked you to come over because he has something to do." Lao Lu said.
"What's the matter?" Li Yu asked.
He was a little curious as to why he didn't use a walkie-talkie to talk to him.
Lao Lu replied: "I just happened to come back to pick up the food and send it over.
As for the matter, it seems to be about the human-powered generator. Lao Qin is also on the wall, and he has someone with him. I forgot his name."
With that said, he walked towards the dining room.
Li Yu moved out of the way and said to him: "Okay, I'll go there first."
Lao Lu nodded, leaned over and left.
After he left, Li Yu walked towards the wall.
Walk a hundred steps after a meal and live to be ninety-nine.
Just after finishing the meal, it would be good to go for a walk on the wall.
....
Eight minutes later, Li Yu came to the wall.
Li Yu knew that it was definitely not an urgent matter for his third uncle to find him, otherwise he would not have asked Lao Lu to call him on the way.
So the walking speed is slower.
As soon as he walked to the wall, he heard the sound coming from the gate guard room. Li Yu was a little curious, so he stopped and listened:
"Don't worry, this can definitely solve the problem of long-term power. The energy that supports the movement of zombie bodies has not been clarified yet, but at least one thing is known now, that is, zombies can move continuously for a long time...
"A young voice said confidently.
"Bai Jie, what do you think? Can his idea be realized?" Third Uncle asked.
Huh? Why did Bai Jie come up?
Li Yu is a little strange.
"I don't know much about the operation of lathes, so I don't offer opinions or ideas on this.
Judging from the current situation of zombies, no energy code for their actions has been found so far. Although Professor Madi said that the first zombie was injected with elements extracted from extraterrestrial meteorites to develop
anti-cancer drugs.
We won't mention why for now, but they can indeed move without interruption.
The prerequisite for uninterrupted movement is that it should be in a dark space as much as possible.
Moreover, we have found through research that the more humid the environment, the faster these zombies move and their sensitivity will increase.
The most critical issue is safety.
But this can also be circumvented by pulling out the zombie's teeth and taking protective measures. There should be no problem.
In short, my idea is, I think, just from the perspective of moving zombies to generate electricity, it is feasible to generate electricity just by moving zombies!”
Li Yu listened quietly and was a little surprised when he heard this.
What a genius idea is this.
Use zombie labor to generate electricity!
Can we extend it a little bit and treat zombies as robots that don’t need to be recharged?
Tsk tsk!
What a stupid idea! No one had thought of this idea so boldly in the last days before his rebirth. At least he had never heard anyone propose this method except today.
But Li Yu also has some doubts. The current zombies have no consciousness.
They all rely on basic food needs to drive action.
When they see people or animals, or dead ones of the same kind, they will act and bite.
Normally, when I don't see anyone, I move slowly and blindly, just like I'm on standby.
How to make zombies obedient and generate electricity?
This is a big problem.
The third uncle obviously also considered this problem, so he asked him: "Even if the zombies are solved in action, how do you make the zombies listen to your words and take corresponding actions to generate electricity?"
"This is a small problem." The young man beside Lao Qin said, his face full of confidence.
"This can be done through a lathe, and then the zombies' bodies are bound. As long as a piece of meat is placed in front of the zombies, the zombies will move their feet. After the upper feet are bound, kinetic energy will be generated, and the kinetic energy can be converted into electrical energy.
At that time, all it takes is a small installation. Just like He Bing did, they used two wheels and a generator to make a human-powered generator.
I will also use a lathe and a generator. If you give me something that can hold the zombies in place, I will be able to make it.
You don’t have to worry about this at all.”
Lao Qin, who was next to him, also spoke up: "Ahem, Captain, this Zhou Ran, although he looks young, is still thirty-two years old. He is the chief expert in our factory and graduated from a famous university.
And he also has a PhD in engineering.”
The third uncle glanced at Zhou Ran in surprise. This Zhou Ran looked less than thirty years old.
So he said: "I heard it sounded pretty good. Let's wait for Xiaoyu and see what he thinks."
