doomsday survival

Chapter 339 Letter from Meizi
After Feng Chen finished talking about the formation of this small tribe, Shi Jian and Feng Kuang looked at each other speechlessly.

They didn't expect that these people are like people in Taoyuan, who don't know that the end of the world has already arrived, and they don't know that the Celestial Dynasty has long since ceased to exist.

How did that happen?

It turned out that before their assembly was complete, they encountered riots in the early days of the end of the world. The army responsible for escorting them to the assembly point was just a company. Fortunately, they did not mess up, otherwise, the consequences would be disastrous.

This company escorted more than [-] of them to the deep mountains and dense forests, only to completely avoid the pursuit of the mob.

The company commander told them that there are some rebellions in the society now, and they are going to suppress them. I hope these survivors can hide well and don't go out easily. One day, sooner or later, the soldiers will come to rescue them.

In this way, the soldiers left, and the survivors supported each other and lived here, relying on some supplies left by the army to survive. If not for some of them who knew how to extract salt from the saline-alkali land, they would have been unable to survive. up.

As time passed, the army never showed up, and they all thought they had been abandoned.After hiding for three months, they finally stopped hiding, but boldly walked outside.

But when they arrived at the first village, they found that it had been burned to the ground.Going forward, all I saw were ruins. Naturally, I thought that this place had experienced the flames of war, so I didn't dare to move forward, and returned to the cave where I hid in the first place.

Of course, the end of the world that the mobs were talking about made them a little suspicious, and more than 50 years passed like this, and they never dared to go out again.

As people continue to pass away, their population continues to decrease, and the survival of newborns cannot even be guaranteed. In the end, there are only 27 people left, and only the two youths were born after the end of the world, and the others are born in the old age. people.

Originally thought that Feng Chen and the others were here to rescue their army, but who would have thought that they would bring such a shocking news, how could they make these old people distraught?
It was only after Feng Chen communicated with them that he knew all this, and they also had a real understanding of the world beyond the mountain.

"Then what do you mean, there is no one outside now?" an old man asked tremblingly.

"Master, it's true that there are no more. Now humans are hiding in places where zombies can't easily reach, just like you." Feng Chen explained again.

"Then what are you?" The old man asked puzzledly.

Feng Chen told them the history of the Chang'an Tribe again, and then said: "Master, we Mr. Shi hope to gather all the surviving human beings together so that we can work together to survive the end times. What do you think?"

"As long as we have old arms and legs, you also want them?" the old man asked in surprise.

"As long as you are human beings, not the kind who only know how to kill your own kind, you are all welcome to join the Chang'an Tribe!" Feng Chen promised directly without asking for instructions.

Of course these people are willing, otherwise, the only thing that greets them is death, and they will not be able to reproduce even a single offspring.

Seeing that they agreed, Feng Chen immediately got in touch with Shi Jian, turned on the radio and heard the conversation between Shi Jian and Li Yeyue, and couldn't help but joke.

After listening to Feng Chen's description, Shi Jian and Feng Kuang sighed for a while, sighing secretly that these people's lives are good, and the old districts they encountered were all burned down.

"Boss Shi, I'm going to investigate further ahead." Feng Chen reported to Shi Jianhui.

"Okay, be careful on the road." Shi Jian agreed.

The communication was cut off, and Shi Jian was finally relieved of Feng Chen's place, but Mei Zi, who had never heard from her, still worried him.

Although he was still worried about Meizi, it did not affect his other work. Shi Jian devoted himself to work again.

Shi Jian first went to inspect the progress of the road construction.

It has been a month now. Although there are engineering vehicles to assist, the progress of the road is not too fast. So far, only a quarter of it has been repaired.

At this rate of progress, it will take another three months to get through the two bases of the cottage and the industrial park.

Of course, this is because the quality of the road did not meet the requirements of the old era. It was only a layer of soft ground above that was shoveled off, then paved with broken bricks and tiles, and then the road surface was compacted with a road roller.

If the roadbed was laid strictly according to the requirements of the old era, and then the road surface was repaired, it is estimated that only one tenth of it can be repaired now.

But this road is enough for the Chang'an tribe to transport, and it can minimize the travel time between the two places.

Because almost all of them are built around the mountain, it is much farther than the previous road. According to estimates by Shi Jian and Feng Kuang, the total length of this road will be more than 200 kilometers, less than [-] kilometers.

If the car can travel at a speed of [-] kilometers per hour, it can run back and forth in one day, which is much faster than the time it takes for red deer to walk one way in nearly two days.

Shi Jian came to the forefront of road construction in a truck transporting gravel, and Andre was directing the prisoners to work hard.

Sun Ming was also among them, and Andre didn't give him any preferential treatment, and let him and the prisoners of the wild wolf work together to pave the broken bricks and tiles that had been unloaded earlier.

Shi Jian walked up to him and stopped.

Sun Ming noticed that someone was approaching, raised his head, saw that it was Shi Jian, and hurriedly stood at attention, but he didn't dare to look up at Shi Jian.

"How are you doing recently?" Shi Jian asked, not shying away from the prisoners around him.

"It's okay." Sun Ming said in a low voice.

"Do you feel tired from this job?" Shi Jian asked again.

"Tired," Sun Ming nodded, and said, "Actually, they were really suffering. What I did was really wrong."

Shi Jian knew that the "they" that Sun Ming referred to were those wild wolf prisoners, so he was very comforted to think so, so he nodded and said, "That's right, everyone is the same person. , Why can you beat and scold him again and again? The punishment for you this time is to make you remember."

"Boss Shi, I know I was wrong, when will I be able to..." Sun Ming didn't continue, but his meaning was already obvious, he wanted to get out of hard labor.

Shi Jian thought for a while and said, "Let's do it for another month, it's just exercise."

Where did Sun Ming dare to have any objections, he hastily agreed.

Shi Jian asked the other prisoners again to see if the abuse happened again.

Fortunately, with the lessons learned by Sun Ming and the recent ideological work, no one dares to abuse the prisoners anymore.

Prisoners undergo double reformation of hard labor and ideological work, especially the thought work that is similar to brainwashing, which makes them regret what they have done in the past, and they all decide to change their past mistakes and start a new life.

Andre also ran over, stood beside Shi Jian, and introduced the current progress of the project.

While listening, Shi Jian had an illusion, as if now he was like the leaders who went deep into the grassroots in the old era, and Andre was the grassroots person in charge who was introducing him, which made him feel like a world away. a feeling of.

"Old An, how long do you think this road will take to be repaired?" Shi Jian asked after listening to Andre's introduction.

This route was explored by Andre, who knows the road conditions best. Hearing Shi Jian's question, he thought for a while, and then said: "Mr. Shi, it will be faster to go further."

"Oh? Why do you say that?" Shi Jian asked.

Andre gestured forward and said: "Mr. Shi, there is a long distance ahead with rocky ground, and there is no need for bedding."

"Is the ground level?" Shi Jian asked.

"It's relatively flat."

"That's good," Shi Jian nodded and said, "This road must be built well. This is the lifeline of our Chang'an."

It is not too much for Shi Jian to say that, as long as this road is built, the two bases will be more effectively linked together, so that no matter where there is a danger, the other side can provide support at the fastest speed .

After returning from the construction site, Shi Jian started making mortars again.

It was the most lethal weapon he could produce now, and the entire foundry and machine shop were devoted to making mortars and shells, turning the industrial complex into an arsenal.

It's not that Shi Jian doesn't produce other materials, but that in the last days, survival is always the first priority, and if you want to survive, you must have enough force to protect yourself, whether it's dealing with zombies or malicious humans, Force is indispensable, just as in the old days military was always the first application of technological development.

Half a month passed after such an ordinary and busy day, and finally Meizi also heard from her.

After receiving the news, Shi Jian ran over in a hurry, picked up the microphone and asked anxiously, "Meizi, how are you all? Are you all safe?"

Meizi was touched by Shi Jian's concerned question on the opposite side, and replied, "Mr. Shi, everything is fine with us, but we haven't found any traces of humans."

Shi Jian was somewhat disappointed when he heard Mei Zi's words, but he also knew that human survivors were not so easy to find, so he said, "It doesn't matter, if it doesn't work, you can come back, it's come so far."

"Mr. Shi, although we didn't find any human traces, we found something else," Meizi said.

"What?" Shi Jian asked.

"It looks like an airport, just like the ones seen in movies." Meizi replied.

"Airport?" Shi Jian asked in surprise.

"That's right, it's the one played in the movie, as if you said it was a fighter plane." Meizi said with certainty.

Shi Jian sighed, and said: "That thing is useless, we don't know how to open it, and we don't know how to repair it, so we don't know if it can be used now."

"But we also found some weapons at that airport, which seem to be those anti-aircraft guns." Meizi added.
