Apocalypse Rebirth: 3000 million won at the beginning

zizi——

Liu Yu walked in front with a group of workers and used an electric saw to cut down the forest in front.

The small forest between Nanwan Lake and the ditch they built was quickly cut down by them. While they were sawing the trees, the other workers behind them were not idle either.

Help remove felled trees.

Every second counts.

This patch of forest was only a few dozen meters long and was quickly cut down.

The sound of the chainsaw was loud. A small number of zombies that had not come ashore in the lake heard the sound and rushed over. They were killed by Xia Liangfeng and others.

After this patch of forest was cut through, there was no longer any obstruction between the ditch and Nanwan Lake.

Rumble!
Two cranes drove towards the lake.

On the shore, Xia Liangfeng and others stood five meters away from the lake, pointing their guns at the lake. If any zombies appeared, they would be shot dead immediately.

A brigade has about 200 people, including two hundred armed militiamen and two hundred pairs of eyes watching closely, so they can kill the zombies immediately as soon as they emerge from the water.

The crane drove to the shore, and Liu Yu and Xie Changshan also walked here.

There are two dyed wooden stakes inserted on the shore. This is the dock construction site that Xie Changshan had found in advance.

"Bring the caisson columns over and get the crane ready!" Liu Yu used the walkie-talkie to contact the forklift behind.

Seven or eight forklifts lifted the one-ton caisson from the bottom and placed it on the side of the crane.

The crane lowered the boom and special workers fastened the boom to the caisson.

The operator inside the crane moved the boom and lowered it into the lake.

The boom was lowered into the water until the caisson rested on the lake floor.

After the caisson sank to the bottom of the lake, the crane released the buckle, the boom floated to the surface, and repeated the operation of lowering the caisson.

Seven or eight forklifts carrying caissons were transporting the hanging boxes to the lakeside without stopping.

Two cranes, one on the left and one on the right.

"There is another crane. Why don't we use them together to make things faster?" Ding Meng asked, pointing at the crane at the back after seeing the two cranes start working.

Xie Changshan shook his head and said, "The space is too small. Two cranes are enough. Another crane can only be placed in the middle, which is prone to accidents."

"Okay, but it doesn't look fast." Ding Meng frowned.

Xie Changshan thought for a moment and said, "Don't worry, as long as the caisson is built, the filling will be quick later."

Bang bang bang!
A zombie climbed up as the crane sank into the water.

The crane arm emerged from the water, and the zombie was also exposed above the water.

When Xia Liangfeng and others saw the zombie, they shot and killed it immediately.

thump!
The zombie fell into the water and sank.

Just now, after a wave of bomb attacks and the use of loudspeakers to attract attention, most of the zombies in the lake have been lured out.

This lake is very large, covering an area of ​​tens of square kilometers and 20 kilometers wide from east to west.

The area is so large that there are bound to be some zombies that haven’t come out.

Therefore, during the construction, a few zombies would be attracted by the noise from time to time and surface.

They were met with nothing but bullets.

After the crane had been operating for more than ten minutes, the caisson emerged from the water as it was stacked higher.

Each caisson is one meter long, wide and high, with a volume of one cubic meter.

The water depth near the shore was relatively low, only two meters. In just over ten minutes, they built two small docks that were five or six meters long.

"Okay, fill the dump truck with sand and stones." After seeing this scene, Xie Changshan immediately gave instructions to Liu Yu.

Dozens of dump trucks loaded with stones and sand lined up and came to the shore.

He reversed the truck and aimed the truck bed at the gap between the two small docks, dumping the stones and sand from the truck.

The caissons can prevent the sand and gravel from rolling down to other places and concentrate them in the space surrounded by the caissons on both sides.

A dump truck carries 25 cubic meters of sand and gravel, but the gap in the middle is seven or eight meters. It takes several dump trucks to dump the gap and fill it with sand and gravel.

A dock with a width of nearly ten meters is being widened step by step.

After transporting the sand and gravel on the truck, the dump truck immediately turned around and drove towards the trading market.

The trading market is always under construction, with large amounts of sand and gravel stored up.

Up to now, there is still a steady stream of transport convoys loading construction materials outside and transporting them to the trading market.

Three hours passed in the blink of an eye.

As they continued to work, Ding Meng saw with his own eyes a dock with a length of ten meters and a width of nearly ten meters appear in front of him.

During these three hours, forty dump trucks transported the soil back and forth, and each dump truck made three trips.

Thousands of tons of sand and gravel sank into the lake, and then were rolled back and forth by rollers to level the road surface, forming a small pier like this.

According to their original plan, they wanted to build an eight-meter-wide dock, but plans cannot keep up with changes, so a wider dock of ten meters would also be fine.

However, as we work deeper into the lake, the deeper we go, and the more caissons and sand and gravel we need.

Another hour passed, and it was five o'clock in the afternoon, still an hour before dark.

Ding Meng found Xie Changshan and said, "Let's stop here for today. It will be dark in an hour. Let's continue tomorrow."

Xie Changshan looked at the dock that had grown to twelve meters and nodded, "Okay, I'll have them clean it up and call it a day!"

A few minutes later, the crane stopped and several dump trucks that had transported the dirt lined up to dump the sand and gravel on their trucks into the middle of the caisson.

"Calling home, returning to base." Liu Yu kept repeating while holding the loudspeaker.

There were hundreds of zombie corpses floating on the lake, all of which were killed by Xia Liangfeng and his men.

Some zombies wanted to go ashore, but were shot dead as soon as they got ashore.

These bodies are left here and do not need to be salvaged or disposed of.

Because at night, the zombies in the lake will naturally eat all the food.

The crane retracted its boom and the driver drove the crane to the ditch.

Cranes are very expensive, and there are only a dozen of them in the entire oil city. It would be a pity to lose one.

Although it is unlikely that someone will drive away at night if I leave it here, I still want to be prepared for the possibility.

It’s not far to drive back anyway.

The dump trucks, carrying the workers, drove towards the trading market.

Xia Liangfeng, Ding Meng and other guards also went to the trading market.

Today's mission went very smoothly. After luring most of the zombies in the lake out and dealing with them, a lot of unnecessary trouble was reduced for subsequent construction.

This ensured that the terminal project proceeded extremely smoothly.

On an armored vehicle.

Xie Changshan said with a smile:

"Captain Ding, the progress is going so smoothly. What I was most worried about at the beginning was that the zombies in the lake would put pressure on the project, but I didn't expect it to go so smoothly."

"At this rate, we will be able to build the dock tomorrow and start constructing the water intake building the day after tomorrow."

Ding Meng nodded and said:
"Well, I'll lead the team back tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, and Xia Liangfeng and the others will be there behind us."

"Okay, thank you Captain Ding."

"No, I am just following orders from above."

northwest.

On the fifth floor of a factory building four kilometers away from the Northwest Base.

He rubbed his face with his hands, and clumps of dead skin fell off his face. The climate here is too dry.

After arriving in the northwest for half a month, they changed two locations and found this best observation point.

The most troublesome thing here is adding water. Every time we have to take the risk and go to the upper reaches of the Beida River to secretly fetch water.

In order to reduce the number of times they had to fetch water, they got four large barrels of more than ten liters each, and filling them with water each time could last for a month.

In order to save water, they didn't take a bath or even wash their faces in the past half month.

You should drink the mouthwash before rinsing your mouth.

"Old Zheng, so many people have come from the east and west these past two days. I guess a big meeting is about to start in the northwest."

Zheng Shiwu put away the telescope and said to Black Hand:

"Let's go, it's getting dark, we should go down."

"Okay, let's have a drink tonight?"

"No more drinking. I have to contact Oil City tonight and report what I have observed over the past two days."

"Ok."

The two men came to the door carrying small packages, looked around, and then bent over and walked downstairs.

When we arrived at the house next door, we saw that they were still living in the cellar, just like before.

The temperature difference between day and night is very large in the northwest. It is over 20 degrees during the day and only a few degrees at night.

The cellar is insulated and much warmer than outside.

They brought several batteries specifically for charging the radio.

They originally wanted to bring a solar panel, but solar panels reflect light and can be easily discovered, so they can only save electricity.

Generally, we contact the oil city once every two days, and turn off the radio when it is not in use to save power.

They moved the radio station to the entrance of the cellar and opened the baffle above the cellar to prevent it from affecting the radio station's signal.

sizzle-

"I'm Zheng Shiwu, calling Oil City."

Zheng Shiwu called several times in succession, and one minute later.

Human voices mixed with the sound of electricity came.

"Got it, this is Oil City."

After hearing the operator's voice, Zheng Shiwu quickly said:
"A lot of people came to the northwest yesterday. They all seemed to have come from other places. Black Hand and I suspected that they were plotting something."

The operator's pupils shrank slightly when he heard this.

"Okay, wait a moment, I'll ask the director and the others to come over and talk to you."

After saying that, the operator quickly looked at the person next to him and said, "Go and call Director Luo."

A few minutes later, Lao Luo hurried over.

"Any news about Zheng Shiwu and the others?" Lao Luo asked the operator as soon as he came in.

The operators at the headquarters base and the oil city are very important.

As operators, they are the first to know confidential information, so the screening and assessment standards are very high.

There is a hard core requirement for this position, which is that you must be a level 2 outer city personnel or above.

In the past, when the Dazhangshu base was not that large, there was no such position as a switchboard operator.

However, as the base develops, the influence of the Dazhangshu base spans three places, and the situation changes dynamically. Unexpected situations may occur at any time.
Communication needs to be available 24 hours a day, so this position is specially created.

After hearing what Lao Luo said, the operator quickly stood up.

"Yes, Zheng Shiwu said that there is movement in the northwest. There are many people pouring in from outside. He suspects that the northwest is plotting something again."

"Well, I see."

Lao Luo sat on the stool and turned on the play button.

"I'm Luo Sanzhang, Zheng Shiwu. You said there's a large influx of outsiders from the northwest? Can you be more specific? How many people, and from which direction?"

After hearing Director Luo's voice, Zheng Shiwu sat up straight.

"Yesterday evening, a helicopter flew in from the east. There was a man in a white coat inside the helicopter. There were also a few other people. Judging from their attire, they were probably not from the Northwest Base."

"There was a convoy coming from the west this morning, loaded with oil barrels."

"It's mainly these two groups of people. The others look like stragglers."

Lao Luo heard this and frowned in thought.

He suddenly remembered that Ma Laoliu had contacted them before and that a meeting would be held in the northwest this month.

The Northwest summoned all their affiliated forces to a meeting.

The largest affiliated force in the east of the Northwest is none other than Ma Laoliu, who is located to the west of the Northwest base. Plus, as Zheng Shiwu mentioned, there are many oil barrels, so they should be the people stationed in the Yumen Oilfield in the Northwest.

According to Ma Laoliu, the Northwest Base holds such a meeting almost every six months.

Ma Laoliu contacted me the day before yesterday and said that they would go to the Northwest Base for a meeting.

It is estimated that what Zheng Shiwu saw was this conference, where affiliated forces from all sides came.

"Okay, I get it. The one flying over from the east should be Ma Laoliu. I told you before that. The one flying over from the west should be the one stationed at Yumen Oilfield."

Lao Luo continued, "Keep an eye on it at all times and report to me at any time if there is any situation."

"Also, is everything okay over there? Are you encountering any difficulties?"

Zheng Shiwu replied: "No difficulties, everything is fine."

"Okay, thank you for your hard work. When you come back this time, I will definitely give you what I promised you!" Lao Luo gave Zheng Shiwu a shot of confidence.

"Understood. Thank you, Director Luo."

After the call ended, Heishou came over and asked, "Old Zheng, what's going on? What did Oil City say?"

Zheng Shiwu sniffed and smelled a strong smell of alcohol.

"Damn it, didn't I tell you not to drink today? Ever since you found those two jars of wine, you've been drinking every day. I'm drinking you to death!"

Black Hand was scolded and didn't say anything back.

He burped and said awkwardly:

“I thought you wouldn’t notice.”

"Shit, such a strong smell of alcohol! You can smell it as soon as you open your mouth."

"Seriously, what did they say in Oil City?" Black Hand asked seriously.

Zheng Shiwu started to tell him what Lao Luo had just said to him.

Black Hand smacked his lips and said, "This Ma Laoliu is really a Laoliu, but I think it will be difficult for him to steal meteorites in the Northwest Base."

"The defense inside the northwest wall is so strict that stealing the meteorite is harder than climbing to the sky."

Zheng Shiwu put away the radio, clapped his hands and said:
"Who cares? Let's just watch the show. Our mission is to monitor. We don't care what happens in the Northwest Base."

"That's right!" Heishou raised his head and took another sip of wine.

This wine has been stored for more than ten years and is delicious but not intoxicating.

There was nothing for the two grown men to do here. They kept watch during the day and were so bored at night that Heishou had to drink to pass the time.

"Now that I think about it, I really miss the days of the trading market, eating skewers and drinking, going to the bar to dance, and then going to Tingfeng Tower at night. Those days were so beautiful!"

Black Hand muttered, "After this mission is over, I must take a good rest. 500 points, tsk tsk! Make a fortune!"

Zheng Shiwu glanced at him and stood up. "Come here and help me close the cellar damper."
