After some pleasantries, Lei Cheng went straight to the point, "I think everyone already knows. The 100,000 zombies in Shang Lin County are closing in on us. Right now, our base is at the point of life and death. I hope that everyone in the base can put down their personal grudges, and work together to overcome this crisis.
Lei Cheng spoke passionately, "As long as we humans work together, we can definitely defeat the zombies. I solemnly promise that we soldiers will fight to protect everyone. I will also fight with everyone until the last moment, and live and die together with the base! "
As soon as Lei Cheng finished his speech, there was an earth-shattering applause from the crowd.
It was no secret that the 100,000 zombies in Shang Lin County were moving towards the base. If it wasn't for the fact that the military and the government were still guarding the base, the survivors would have fled long ago.
In fact, it wasn't that the survivors didn't want to escape, but that most of them had already exhausted their strength. After entering the base, they hadn't eaten a full meal. Even if they managed to escape, they wouldn't have the strength to run too far.
In the base, all the means of transportation were in the hands of the government, the military, and the various factions. Ordinary survivors had no means of transportation, and even if they wanted to escape, they wouldn't be able to.
Lei Cheng's words made the leaders of the various factions feel a little more at ease. Lei Cheng had a battalion of soldiers, and the 8 IFVs, which was the source of their confidence.
Lei Cheng listened to the thunderous applause, and smiled, finally revealing his fangs, "In this time of crisis, we can't do things our own way, we have to work together. Only by working together can we overcome this crisis. A dragon can't be without a head, in order to exert everyone's strength, we should choose a leader to lead everyone through this crisis. "
As soon as Lei Cheng's words fell, Sky Wang immediately responded loudly, "Good! Battalion Commander Lei said it so well! Just like what Commander Lei said, if we continue to be like this, we won't be able to stop the zombie army. We have to choose a leader to lead everyone through this crisis. I propose that Commander Lei be our leader, and lead this war. "
One Blade Xue also said in a deep voice, "Commander Lei is right. We can't continue to be like this. I also agree that Commander Lei should be our leader. "
Among the crowd below, there were a dozen people who responded to Lei Cheng's words and loudly recommended him to be their leader.
The leaders of the other factions fell into silence. They knew that a unified command would be beneficial to the fight against the 100,000 zombies. However, none of them were willing to be commanded by Lei Cheng. Otherwise, even if they won, if all their subordinates died in battle, they would be left without an army. Without loyal subordinates, the leaders of their forces were nothing. Everyone had the thought of preserving their strength. It would be best if the others fought with the zombies and both sides suffered, and then they would be the fisherman that reaped the benefits.
Lei Cheng looked at the silent crowd below and frowned slightly. Then, he smiled and announced: "Since everyone is so supportive, I, Lei Cheng, will also be the leader and lead everyone through this difficult time."
Seeing that Lei Cheng had appointed himself as the leader, the leaders of the other factions looked at each other in dismay. Their eyes flashed with a strange light, but no one dared to oppose or recommend themselves.
The military that Lei Cheng represented possessed the strongest military force in the base. Not only did they have a full battalion of soldiers, but they also had affiliated militias and affiliated forces, numbering nearly a thousand people. The only one who could compete with them was Yue Zhong. If Yue Zhong did not say anything, no one was willing to stand out.
Gu Feifei anxiously looked at Yue Zhong and said: "Yue Zhong, why are you not saying anything? Only you can stop Lei Cheng now. "
Gu Feifei also knew that once all the forces were united by Lei Cheng. After this battle, Flame King Gu Zhixing's forces would be greatly weakened. It was not impossible for them to be swallowed by Lei Cheng. The only person who could stop Lei Cheng was Yue Zhong, who was sitting in front of her.
Yue Zhong looked at Lei Cheng and slowly said: "What Lei Cheng said is right. Only by unifying all the forces in the base, can we resist this zombie attack. A scattered group of people cannot stop the zombies. Didn't you see that no government officials have come out to stop this? If I did not guess wrong, they have already reached an agreement with the military, and approved of Lei Cheng's actions. Right now, our biggest enemy is still the zombies. "
Although Yue Zhong did not like Lei Cheng's character, but the only person who could unite all the forces in the base was Lei Cheng. Yue Zhong's forces were not smaller than Lei Cheng's, but he was still an outsider. The government and military would not allow him to unite all the forces in the base. In order to resist the zombie army, Yue Zhong could only watch Lei Cheng unite all the forces in the base.
Gu Yan Yi smiled bitterly, and stopped Gu Feifei who wanted to say something: "Feifei, don't say anything! Yue Zhong is right. Right now, our biggest enemy is the zombies. If the zombies break into the base, we will lose everything. Although Lei Cheng is not a good person, but he is the only one in the base who has the qualifications to unite all the forces. "
Ning Zixuan and the others fell into silence. After Lei Cheng united all the forces in Long Hai City, his forces became even more powerful. The pressure on the government was even greater. But just as Gu Yan Yi said, if the base was destroyed, they would lose everything. At the beginning of the apocalypse, the people who were fleeing for their lives appeared in front of them again.
Lei Cheng looked at Yue Zhong, and seeing that Yue Zhong had no intention of standing up for him, he smiled with satisfaction and said to everyone: "Since we are all family now, it is better to make some things clear in advance! Now is a critical moment for the base. If we are not careful, the base will be destroyed and everyone will die. If anyone dares to disobey my orders, they will be punished according to military law. Everyone, please be mentally prepared. "
Sky Wang and One Blade Xue did not dare to clash with Yue Zhong because they were worried that Yue Zhong would ruin Lei Cheng's plan. If Yue Zhong stood up and united all the forces in the base, Lei Cheng would not be able to clean up the mess.
If Lei Cheng became angry, Sky Wang and One Blade Xue could only die. There were many people in the base who wanted to be Lei Cheng's lackey. There were many people in the base who wanted to be Lei Cheng's lackey.
Listening to Lei Cheng's words, the leaders of the forces felt a chill in their hearts. But no one dared to speak. The government that could keep the military in check did not come forward, and Yue Zhong who could resist Lei Cheng also did not come forward. Naturally, they did not dare to say anything. They were very clear that the bird that sticks out will be shot.
Lei Sheng came to Yue Zhong's side, looked at Ji Qing Wu who was sitting next to Yue Zhong, and very politely invited: "Captain Yue! My father Lei Cheng wants to invite you over. "
"Excuse me!"
Yue Zhong stood up and followed Lei Sheng into the villa.
Lei Sheng led Yue Zhong to a secret room, and then retreated.
In that secret room sat the military controller, Lei Cheng, and the government controller, Chen Jianfeng.
Lei Cheng looked at Yue Zhong who was sitting in front of him, smiled and said: "You are Yue Zhong? I am Lei Cheng. "
Yue Zhong looked at Lei Cheng, eyes flashed a strange light, smiled and said: "Commander Lei, how do you do!"
Now that the two leaders of the base were sitting here, Yue Zhong only needed to stretch out his hand and he could catch them. But this was just a thought. If Lei Cheng and Chen Jianfeng were killed, the entire base would be in chaos. It would be impossible to organize people to fight against the zombie army.
Moreover, Lei Cheng and Chen Jianfeng, as the leaders of the base, must have some secret treasures in their hands. Maybe they have a life-saving treasure like the Hurricane Necklace. If Yue Zhong was unable to kill them in one strike, the base would be in chaos.
Lei Cheng looked at Yue Zhong with a kind smile, and tentatively said: "Yue Zhong, what do you think about a unified command?"
Yue Zhong thought for a moment, then said: "A unified command is a good thing. It can maximize the combat effectiveness of the troops. Commander Lei, your action of unifying the large and small forces in the base is really brilliant. During the war, they will be able to play the greatest role in your hands. "
Yue Zhong did not mention his own command, implying that he was not within the scope of Lei Cheng's command. During the war, you Lei Cheng can forget about using my troops as cannon fodder.
Lei Cheng with a serious face, righteously said: "Yue Zhong, you can bring troops to help the base, this proves that you are a hero who has the country and the people in your heart. You are willing to fight to protect the country and the people. You are very clear about the current situation, if we cannot unite, it will be very difficult to deal with the 100,000 zombies coming from Shanglin County. "
"Only with a unified command can we exert the greatest strength as a whole. I hope you can consider the big picture, and obey my command. Let us fight together to protect the people! "
Lei Cheng constantly praised Yue Zhong as a moral pacesetter, hoping that Yue Zhong would hand over the command. Lei Cheng is also very envious of the elite soldiers under Yue Zhong's command, because they are very powerful cannon fodder.
Yue Zhong ignored Lei Cheng's words, and directly asked for supplies: "3,000 tons of food, 100,000 rounds of ammunition, 30 Imitation Tang Swords, 20 novice wooden sticks, and 5 tons of fuel. If you want my troops to fight the zombies, the base must give us these supplies. If you don't give me the supplies, I will immediately take my men and leave the base. "
Lei Cheng's face became livid, and in a deep voice said: "You are looting a burning house."
Yue Zhong coldly said: "I have no relationship with the base, why should I lead my men to fight the zombies? I am just a mercenary, to help you kill the zombies is already my duty. Do I have to use my own ammunition to fight the zombies? Is there such a logic in this world? "
Lei Cheng's words are all bullshit to Yue Zhong. If he becomes the hero in Lei Cheng's words, the only result is that he will be used by Lei Cheng and thrown into the garbage. After a long time, no one will look at him again.
Yue Zhong brought his men to support the base, just for the 6000 survivors, not to die as cannon fodder. If Lei Cheng insists on using him as cannon fodder, he can only give up defending the base, and leave.
If the ammunition is exhausted, Yue Zhong's men can only fight the zombies in close combat. Even if the ordinary zombies are vulnerable, but even if 100 ordinary zombies were exchanged for one soldier, Yue Zhong would feel distressed. After the apocalypse, the population is a very valuable resource, and elite soldiers are even more valuable.
Listening to Yue Zhong's words, the atmosphere in the room dropped to a freezing point. The three people were silent, quietly looking at each other.
Chen Jianfeng broke the silence and slowly said: "Yue Zhong, the supplies you want are too much. 3,000 tons of food, I can give you the novice wooden sticks, but I can only give you 10 Imitation Tang Swords. I can give you 30,000 rounds of ammunition, and 2 tons of fuel. This is already the base's bottom line, I can't give you more supplies. "
Ammunition and fuel are precious resources after the apocalypse. 30,000 rounds of ammunition and 2 tons of fuel is already a lot, Chen Jianfeng can't give Yue Zhong more supplies before the battle with the zombies.
Yue Zhong thought for a moment, then nodded and said: "Fine! Uncle Chen, for Chen Yao's sake, I will give you this face. "
Yue Zhong agreed to stay at the base to fight the zombies, and the atmosphere in the room slightly relaxed. The three people in the room, all want to defend the base, and the general direction is the same.
After this conversation, Lei Cheng also knew that he can't directly command Yue Zhong's men. Both sides can only maintain a cooperative relationship.
Chen Jianfeng already knew that Yue Zhong had gone to scout the zombies, so he asked: "Yue Zhong, what do you think about the zombie battle?"
"Very difficult! I went to scout today. The zombies in Shang Lin County are constantly absorbing the zombies from the surrounding villages, and their numbers are getting larger and larger. After 10 days, when they arrive here, I personally estimate that their numbers will be about 120,000 or more. "
"I think we should organize all the male survivors, let them undergo basic training, and then give them weapons to fight the zombies. This way, we can defend the base. "
"In my Big Cliff Village, on average, we can produce 150 machetes and 150 shields every day. If we specialize in the production of machetes, we can produce 300 machetes a day, and 3000 machetes in 10 days. That's enough to arm 3000 survivors. If you want, I can sell them to you for 50 rounds of bullets per machete. 3000 machetes, is 150,000 rounds of bullets. "
Although Yue Zhong wants to help the base get through this difficult time, but he is not willing to provide weapons for free. After all, Big Cliff Village was fought hard by him and his men. Moreover, the production of the machetes requires a lot of steel, manpower, electricity, and coal. He can't provide them for free.
There are nearly 7000 people in the base, and more than half of them are young and strong men. After the apocalypse, men with better physical fitness are more likely to survive. As long as Chen Jianfeng and the other leaders of the base organize, they can definitely pick out 3000 male survivors as soldiers. (To be continued.
