Eye of the Wasteland

Chapter 45 Gradually perfect stronghold

In the next few days, the entire stronghold was still busy with work.

Originally thought that because of the Cangyan Gang, the progress of rebuilding the entire stronghold would definitely be slowed down.

But to the surprise of all the wasteland rangers, the work progress of the entire stronghold has actually accelerated.

According to all the homeless people working in the stronghold, the stronghold now has its own defense, even if it is only the most basic earthen wall, it looks like a stronghold anyway.

Whether it is seeing those earthen walls on weekdays, or sleeping more comfortably at night, these homeless people are very relieved.

In addition, the treatment provided by Wasteland Ranger is also good, everyone is refreshed every day, and they will naturally work harder.

And because of the Cangyan Gang, all the homeless working in the stronghold except those whose family members are not here need to return to other strongholds. The other homeless people have already applied to Chen Xiaojia to stay in the rebuilt stronghold.

According to their words, what happened to the Cangyan Gang let them know the difference between Wasteland Rangers and other wanderer teams, and they have a sense of belonging to this stronghold and the entire Wasteland Rangers team.

Such a situation naturally made Chen Xiaojia and other Wasteland Ranger members ecstatic.

For a long time, the Wasteland Rangers, as a small team of wanderers, could only rely on the connections accumulated by the old captain to work for Fuyuan City to earn commissions to survive.

Because of the small size of the team, the number of tasks that can be accepted is also very limited. In addition, due to the continuous loss of tasks, the size of the team is not to mention expanding, but it is fortunate that it will not shrink.

Being able to have so many homeless people who can work and work can join, for a homeless stronghold that has just been rebuilt, it means having a sufficient labor force.

Not only can you continue to expand the stronghold to recruit more homeless people, but also many facilities in the stronghold can be built in a short period of time.

At the same time, Ding Shiyang and others also told Chen Xiaojia and the other Wasteland Rangers about Wu Yunhao's past.

After learning that Wu Yunhao was a senior mercenary in Jingdong City, everyone's curiosity and doubts about him were easily resolved.

And also when they learned that Wu Yunhao had killed the son of Jing Dongcheng's tiger leader in order to avenge his brothers and sisters, everyone was somewhat shocked by this kind of thing.

It's not that everyone doesn't believe what Wu Yunhao said, but that people living in the wasteland are shocked by this kind of loyal behavior for their brothers, even at the expense of their lives.

Because people in the wasteland era can do anything to sell themselves or others in order to survive, those noble ideologies and morals have long since disappeared with the battle of doomsday.

Ask yourself, no one in the entire stronghold dares to say that when faced with the same situation as Wu Yunhao, he can make the same choice as Wu Yunhao.

So, after hearing this, everyone in the stronghold felt admiration for Wu Yunhao.

In everyone's usual after-dinner chat, this incident quickly spread through the mouths of the Wasteland Ranger team members, and quickly spread among the wanderers.

Many wanderers who can personally experience the evil of human nature in the wasteland era admire Wu Yunhao's behavior even more.

And in the future, whenever Wu Yunhao met the wasteland rangers and other wanderers in the stronghold, the other party would greet him respectfully.

Their expressions of respect and admiration made Wu Yunhao, who was completely ignorant of this situation, feel curious and even a little baffled.

It’s just that once when Wu Yunhao was helping to make wooden spears, he met Chen Xiaojia who was helping to transport the wood and asked about it. He was a little dumbfounded when he learned the truth.

But after learning that everyone just respected him, Wu Yunhao readily accepted everyone's attitude towards him.

"Come, come, everyone, use your strength, come... Let it get up!"

"One, two, three... Come on, push hard...!"

"Brothers on the other side, you have to use your strength...to pull the rope!"

Today, Wu Yunhao and several wasteland rangers are building a wooden watchtower for the corner of the earth wall near the road.

With this watchtower, if there is a vehicle coming along the road in the distance, the people on the watchtower can provide alerts for the entire stronghold faster, and it is convenient for the entire stronghold to respond.

With the concerted efforts of Wu Yunhao and a group of team members, four tall wooden stakes were erected in the foundation holes dug in advance.

Just when Wu Yunhao and others retreated to the side to take a rest, and the two master carpenters were about to continue building the watchtower through the four erected wooden piles, a team member on duty on the earthen wall not far away discovered the situation.

Picking up the binoculars he was wearing and looking towards the distance of the road, the team member then shouted at the people nearby: "Jeep, there are several jeeps approaching our stronghold."

Hearing that team member's shout, many team members who had been patrolling and on duty in the vicinity ran towards the earthen wall one after another.

At the same time, many homeless people also got up one after another, and then looked in the direction of the earthen wall.

Seeing this, Wu Yunhao followed the other team members and rushed towards the earthen wall, and soon followed the two team members to climb up the earthen wall and looked towards the distance of the road.

At this moment, the convoy approaching the stronghold has entered the end of everyone's sight.

Only through Wu Yunhao's observation, the convoy consisting of two jeeps and an old truck did not look like an attacking convoy.

Instead, this fleet configuration is more like a...trade fleet?
Soon, under the vigilant watch of many gunmen, the convoy gradually stopped on the road near the entrance of the stronghold.

The leading jeep did not stop, but drove off the road after slowing down, and slowly drove towards the stronghold along the dirt road.

When it came to a safe distance outside the stronghold, the jeep slowly stopped, and at the same time the homeless man in the back seat stood up and shouted towards the stronghold.

"Brothers from the Xinshan Village base, hello, we are homeless from the nearby Zhaofu Village base."

"I heard that you are here to rebuild the homeless stronghold. We happen to have some things that we are going to trade in Fuyuan City."

"Since we are all neighbors now, why don't we make a deal first to see what both parties need."

"Anyway, everyone will live here in the future, and it can be regarded as the first step for us to get along well in the future."

Hearing that homeless man's shout, Wu Yunhao chuckled.

Didn't expect other homeless strongholds to get the news so soon?
It seems that the Cangyan Gang is very unpopular in this area.

Then, he directed to the team members on the side: "Go and inform Captain Chen and the others that a trade convoy has been sent from a nearby base."
