Apocalypse Rebirth: 3000 million won at the beginning

Chapter 1594: Night Battle with Zombie Wolves

Big camphor tree base.

inner city.

The Ministry of Agriculture held a small meeting.

Minister of Agriculture Anya, Deputy Minister Zhang Qiwu, and Ye Shi, who is in charge of greenhouse cultivation,

The fourth uncle who is in charge of aquaculture, crop technician Yao Ji, as well as Li Peizhen, Liu Mingsheng and others were all present.

They held the meeting in Greenhouse No. 2, a fruit garden in the inner city.

Most of the trees planted in Greenhouse No. 2 are fruit trees, and the height of these fruit trees is controlled within eight meters and cannot exceed the height of the greenhouse.

In the middle of the fruit trees, there is a concrete open space with a small reservoir next to it.

They moved small stools and sat in the open space, listening to Anya's instructions regarding this headquarters water use meeting.

Anya stood in front of everyone and said to them:

"The mayor asked me to come over for a meeting an hour ago about water use. As everyone knows, it hasn't rained for three months. Now the water levels of the Shantang Reservoir and the Buffer City Reservoir have dropped by half."

"We use a huge amount of water in agriculture, so the city lord asked us to reduce some of the agricultural water use. I think we should reduce the planting of crops that require a lot of water and increase the planting of crops that require less water and have a high yield."

"In summary, we should reduce rice planting and increase planting of crops that require more water, such as sweet potatoes, potatoes, corn and wheat."

After she finished speaking, she put the notebook in her hand together.

He asked Ye Shi, "The greenhouses 1 to 10 in the third outer city are almost ripe, right?"

Ye Shi quickly stood up and replied, "Yes, we are preparing to harvest now."

"Well, when the harvest is finished, we can replace all the rice with sweet potatoes."

"alright, got it."

Anya looked at Zhang Qiwu and said:

"Master Zhang, what's going on in the North?"

After establishing a base in the north, Zhang Qiwu returned to the headquarters base.

However, the planting in the north has always been left to him.

Almost every day, I contact Xie Weishan over there through the radio station to communicate about the progress of planting in the north.

Zhang Qiwu was not only responsible for planting in the North, he also served as the chief technical director of the Ministry of Agriculture.

He is the most authoritative person on agricultural planting techniques in the entire camphor tree base.

Even Anya is not as good as him.

When Anya called his name, Zhang Qiwu also stood up and answered:
"In the north, there is a river running through it. Currently, the runoff of that river has been reduced to only one third. However, there are fewer people and industrial factories there, and most of the crops grown there are sweet potatoes, which require less water."

“So far, the water shortage problem is not serious.”

"Well, that's good." Anya nodded.

As for the planting in the oil city, there were only dozens of acres, a small-scale operation, which was completely handed over to Hu Zhen and Bai Yuzhi, two students who were sent there by Zhang Qiwu.

Anya looked at everyone and finally said:
"We don't know when it will rain. The headquarters base is currently preparing to build a water plant, but it is estimated that it will take two months to build."

"Just follow what I said just now, and everyone should adjust the planting plan later."

"Okay." Everyone answered in unison.

Three months without rain is already drought weather for the south.

For survivors in the wild, most of the places where they get water are inhabited by zombies.

This kind of water soaked by zombies must be boiled or filtered before drinking. Otherwise, drinking raw water directly will cause high fever and the fever will not go away for a long time.

So many people like to drink mountain spring water, which is cleaner.

South of Oil City, thirty kilometers away.

Zhonghuashan Forest Park.

With an altitude of nearly 900 meters, it is the highest mountain nearby.

The surrounding terrain is rugged, somewhat similar to that of Zhangjiajie.

There is a road halfway up the mountain, but if you want to continue going up, you can only reach the top through the cliff plank road.

On the top of the mountain, several houses stand.

Various crops are planted around the house, mainly corn, sweet potatoes and potatoes.

In addition, there are some vegetables, but these vegetables are a little wilted and the soil is dry. You can tell at a glance that these vegetables are lacking water.

In the yard, a group of people gathered here.

"Oh, who knew it wouldn't rain for three whole months!" Zheng Hanbing said with a sigh.

After saying this, he looked at Lin Muguang and said:
"Captain Lin, why don't we take all these vegetables to the market and sell them? That way we can have some relief. Carrying water every day is too tiring."

A man holding a plane suddenly said:

"What a pity! Some of the vegetables are not fully ripe yet."

"We can dig that well deeper so we don't have to carry water up and down the mountain."

Generally speaking, the water in the mountains is in the valley area or at the foot of the mountain, or halfway up the mountain.

The reason we chose this place was because it was safe on the top of the mountain and zombies couldn't get up.

Moreover, there is mountain spring water flowing down on the plank road halfway up the mountain.

Moreover, a well more than ten meters deep was dug in the yard on the mountain, and the well water was enough to support their daily water needs.

There is water, land, and it is safe. This place is very suitable for survival.

However, there was no rain for three consecutive months, the water halfway up the mountain stopped flowing, and the water in the well dried up. Now they can only fetch water from the small lake at the foot of the mountain for their daily use.

They inserted wood around the small lake to prevent zombies from walking into the lake.

Now they have to go up and down the mountain to fetch water every day, which is very exhausting.

They have been carrying water for a week, ever since the water supply halfway up the mountain stopped flowing and the well dried up.

Everyone was so tired that they fell asleep immediately at night.

Lin Muguang frowned and said:

"It's so dry now, and we are on the top of a mountain. If we want to get water, we have to dig very deep. By the time we get water at a certain depth, the crops will have died."

"Besides, we don't know how deep we have to dig to find water. It's full of uncertainty."

"Mr. Zheng's idea is good. Although some vegetables will be lost, at least we can still get something in return."

Zhao Dongmei looked at the vegetables outside the yard and felt a little reluctant to leave them behind.

"Captain Lin, have you sold all these vegetables? Shouldn't we keep some for ourselves?"

Lin Muguang thought for a while and said:
"That's fine. Keep one third and dry them in the sun to make dried vegetables. They can be kept for a longer time."

He saw that Xie Minghong looked unhappy and obviously wanted to continue digging the well.

Lin Muguang sighed and said:
"Old Xie, how about this? We have limited manpower, only about twenty people in total. I'll give you three people to dig the well, okay?"

Xie Minghong was delighted when he heard this and said, "Okay, no problem for me. Captain Lin, think about it. If we can dig out some well water, we won't have to go down the mountain. How convenient it is."

"Ah."

Lin Muguang nodded, and then began to assign tasks to everyone.

"Old Zheng, you will start harvesting vegetables tomorrow morning and sell them at the market to earn points. Then you can buy some daily necessities. It will probably take three or four trips to sell all the vegetables. There may be robbers outside the market. I will give you 10 people. Be careful."

"Okay, last time the trading market asked us to join them and help them with planting..." Zheng Hanbing asked after thinking about it.

Lin Muguang thought for a moment and said, "We can confirm the conditions with them. We have to ensure our basic living when we go to help them grow crops. You can talk to them again and ask them where to plant and what to plant."

"it is good."

Lin Muguang looked at his son Lin Lu again and said, "Xiaolu, you should still carry water up and down the mountain to irrigate the crops as before. I will give you 8 people. Just hold on for a few more days. Once the vegetables are sold, you will be under much less pressure."

Lin Lu felt a little embarrassed when he heard that his father only gave him eight people.

You should know that it takes an hour to go down the mountain, and two hours to go back and forth.

There are seven or eight acres of crops and four or five acres of vegetables, and I make four trips up and down the field a day.

Even if we water all the crops once, we can only do it once every three or four days.

"Okay." Lin Lu nodded with difficulty and agreed. Seeing that it was getting dark, Lin Muguang said to everyone:

"That's it, let's break up the meeting!"

Due to water shortage and drought, it is even more difficult for people like them to grow crops.

In the apocalypse, growing crops has always been difficult. In addition to frequent natural disasters, there is also the threat of zombies, so many survivors choose not to grow crops.

This avoids wasting a lot of time and energy and ending up with nothing in the end.

In the end, I can only cry without tears.

It's better to find some other way out with this time.

Night falls.

Jiayu City.

Yuquan Town.

In the north, ten kilometers away from the Northwest Base Camp, in an abandoned factory.

A faint voice was heard in the darkness.

"No, you peed on my feet." Zheng Shiwu was looking at the iron net in the distance with night vision goggles, and suddenly he felt heat on his feet.

Black Hand replied awkwardly: "Sorry, ahem, I can't turn on the light, so I didn't see it."

"I give up." Zheng Shiwu shook his legs to shake off the urine stains on his shoes.

The glass in the factory was broken, there was no basement, no windows or doors.

The cold wind howled.

In October in the northwest, the temperature is only a few degrees at night, and with strong winds, the perceived temperature will be even lower.

Zheng Shiwu was wearing warm clothes inside, a windbreaker outside, and a protective suit to protect against zombie bites. The outermost layer was the camouflage suit specially prepared for them by the Oil City.

This camouflage suit is khaki in color, close to the color of the soil here, making it easier to hide.

The vegetation in the northwest is sparse, with some green only in spring and summer. In autumn and winter, all you can see are dead trees and grass without leaves.

When the wind blows, sand is everywhere.

The two arrived in the northwestern city of Jiayu this afternoon. They parked their car at a private residence ten kilometers to the north.

The car was too big and easily exposed.

Besides, they came here this time to monitor the situation of the northwestern forces.

Zheng Shiwu saw a flashing red dot on the sentry tower on the iron net in the distance, and it was obvious that there was someone there.

He said to Black Hand in a muffled voice:

"According to the information provided to us by Oil City, the area near the Northwest Boss is surrounded by barbed wire. We can't see their walls here. We have to move to another location tomorrow."

"Okay, but there are indeed too few zombies in the northwest." Black Hand nodded.

"Put on your night vision goggles. Let's go to the cellar of the house next door and stay there for the night. Although there are fewer zombies here, what if we both fall asleep and a wall-climbing zombie comes in the middle of the night?"

"Break it!"

"Once the gunshots are heard, our mission will fail, and we won't be able to leave."

"Uh, let's go."

Thirty meters away from this factory building is a row of houses. Most of the houses in the northwest have a cellar.

This is similar to the Northeast.

When late autumn comes, every household starts to stockpile vegetables such as cabbage. These vegetables are in large quantities and are specifically for the winter.

And that cellar was the place they had found in advance in the evening.

The two of them put on night vision goggles and could see clearly even in the dark.

"You have night vision goggles but you don't use them and you peed on my feet. You are amazing."

"That wouldn't be comfortable to wear."

The two of them walked down the stairs in the darkness, as if they were the only two people in the world.

There were no insects chirping around, only the cold wind blowing.

Ding-dong-dong——

The iron sheet on the ground rubbed against the ground, making a sound.

The two men came down from the 6th floor of the factory. There were empty stairs and the corridor was deserted.

Some of the mechanical equipment in the factory should have been taken away by the people from the Northwest, leaving only garbage on the ground.

The two of them walked down from the sixth floor and arrived on the first floor.

The rotten iron door of the factory was pushed open, making a creaking sound in the dark.

Zheng Shiwu opened the door very slowly. Although there were few zombies here, that did not mean there were none.

call--

"come out."

Zheng Shiwu said to the black hand behind him.

Heishou walked out quickly, and at this moment, Heishou's pupils shrank slightly.

Several black things appeared behind Zheng Shiwu.

He got goosebumps.

"Old Zheng, there's something behind you!"

Zheng Shiwu quickly turned around and pulled out the Nepalese machete from his thigh.

The image displayed by the night vision goggles was green. The groups of things were about thirty meters away from them, just outside the door of the house they were going to.

The street is about 7 meters wide and the distance is a bit far.

These things don’t look like humans or zombies, but more like dogs.

Squeeze!
Those creatures spotted them and rushed towards them instantly.

As these creatures rushed over, with sharp fangs and long tails,

Let Zheng Shiwu see clearly what this thing is.

Wolf!
Zombie Wolf!!

There are originally many wolves in the northwest. Before the end of the world, there was a kind of wolf called the Northwest Wolf. They were adapted to long-distance migration and hunting, and liked to appear at night, so they were also called the Night Moon Wolf.

The Moon Wolf is scary enough, but it’s even more ferocious when it turns into a Zombie Wolf!

thump!
Zheng Shiwu threw the package on his back down.
Holding a dagger in his right hand, he squinted his eyes and looked at the zombie wolves.

They must go to that cellar. If they don't kill these zombie wolves now, they will never be able to enter the cellar.

Seeing this, the black hand understood that Zheng Shiwu obviously did not want to escape, but chose to fight hard.

The tacit understanding developed during this period enabled him to quickly understand Zheng Shiwu's thoughts.

He also dropped his backpack on the ground.

Boom!
He pulled his right hand from behind and a butterfly knife appeared in his hand.

With a wave of his left hand, a sharp iron stick appeared.

His eyes were sharp and his expression was cold, he was completely different from the unreliable person he was just now.

two people,

Be prepared and don't panic at all.

It's just a zombie wolf, just kill it!
"Two for each of us. I'll take care of the two on the right, and you take care of the left."

"to make."

The two of them rushed towards the zombie wolf without any further ado.
