Xia Yue smiled at Yue and said: "I hope to become a staff member of the new government, with a rank no lower than Major."
The separation of the military and the government was to ensure that those in power would not be manipulated by the military or the government. After Yue Zhong had gone through the reorganization, he had also divided the government and the military.
However, since they were in a state of war, the military rank system was also implemented on the government side. They would be allocated resources according to their military rank. In the new government, the rank of major was already a core member.
Yue Zhong frowned slightly, looked at Xia Yue and slowly said: "Miss Xia Yue, I am very grateful for your guidance in finding that military camp. But I will also give you your freedom as a reward so that you can smoothly reach Long Hai City. If you want to become a staff member of the new government, what can you offer in exchange? "
Yue knew that Xia Yue was not that kind of stupid woman, he wanted to see what she could offer in exchange for her future life.
Xia Yue pointed to Gao Ying beside her and chuckled: "Gao Ying knows how to reload bullets, and has the experience of reloading bullets. I think you need talents in this field, right? "
Yue's eyes lit up, shook his head and said: "I already have several reloading technicians. That's not enough for you to become a major. "
After gaining control of the base, the first thing Yue Zhong did was to look for talents. Among the ten thousand people, there were six who knew how to reload bullets. Of course, none of them had any practical experience.
After all, in China, reloaded bullets were only active for a while during the War of Resistance against Japan when supplies were scarce. After the new China, China, which had the ability to manufacture new bullets on a large scale, naturally did not bother to manufacture reloaded bullets. Other than some military enthusiasts among the people, no one else dabbled in such things. With Gao Ying, Yue Zhong would be able to avoid a lot of detours when reloading. He was indeed a talent that Yue Zhong needed.
Currently, Yue Zhong did not have the ability or the technology to manufacture new bullets. If he had the ability to manufacture new bullets, he would not even bother to use reloaded bullets.
Despite Yue Zhong's refusal, Xia Yue's expression didn't change. She maintained her smile and said, "Then are you interested in a large arsenal that can equip an entire regiment?"
Hearing Xia Yue's words, Yue Zhong was even more excited than seeing a peerless beauty. What he lacked the most right now was a weapon! Modern weapons. As long as he had enough weapons, the combat power of his troops could be multiplied by several times.
Yue stared at Xia Yue and slowly said: "Deal! As long as you can help me get that armory. I'll arrange for you to become a major in the new government. "
The supply of a major rank in exchange for an armory that could arm an entire division was a good deal no matter how one looked at it.
Xia Yue looked at Yue and smiled brightly. As long as Yue Zhong obtained the armory, she would be able to live a comfortable life. Although she knew the location of the arsenal, she didn't have the ability to get her hands on those firearms. Handing the Military Fire to Yue Zhong was the best choice.
The moment Gao Ying joined in the research of reloading bullets, he quickly imparted the knowledge to the 300 apprentices who were sent over to learn this. Half of the three hundred apprentices were men and women. Everyone cherished this official job very much. With this job, they would not have to starve.
However, things were not as simple as Yue Zhong had imagined. After Gao Ying had taught the apprentices how to reload bullets, After Gao Ying had taught the apprentices how to reload bullets, Yue Zhong's faction was unable to produce them on a large scale.
Due to the lack of professionals, Gao Ying could only go to the nearby steel factory and instruct them on how to produce the bullets. Things like propellants and primers also required Gao Ying to bring people to get them. Within a short period of time, it was not practical to mass reload bullets.
After arranging for Gao Ying to be in charge of reloading bullets, Yue Zhong began to make preparations to reclaim the armory.
The armory that Xia Yue mentioned was hidden deep in the mountains between Long Hai County and SY County. The large armory was about three hundred kilometers away from Qingyuan County. If it was before the apocalypse, it would only be a day's journey. However, after the apocalypse, there were traffic jams everywhere, and it was possible to encounter all sorts of accidents. Yue Zhong had to be careful and make preparations.
Not long after, a huge convoy consisting of 2 IFVs, 1 anti-aircraft machine gun vehicle, 5 Dong Feng Warriors, 20 Hummers, 15 Dong Feng trucks, 4 large modified fuel trucks, and 10 modified buses left Long Hai County. According to Xia Yue's directions, they headed towards the armory.
"Captain Yue! The road ahead is blocked by vehicles! There are also a large number of zombies wandering around. How should we handle this, please advise! "
On the highway, Yue Zhong's huge convoy stopped. About 200m in front of the convoy, there were abandoned vehicles everywhere, and a large number of zombies were wandering around.
The reason why these zombies would appear here was because they were the owners of private cars that were stuck in this area. During the apocalypse, a large number of people scrambled to get into private cars in an attempt to escape the city. It was just a traffic jam, and all of their lives were lost here.
Yue Zhong alighted from one of the Dong Feng Warriors, and looked at the tightly blocked road in front of him, and frowned. The traffic jam had wasted a lot of his time. If there were no traffic jams, the 300km journey at full speed could be completed in a day.
Attracted by the sound of the convoy's engines on the highway, the zombies that were wandering around the abandoned vehicles struggled to make their way over.
There were a total of hundreds of zombies, among which there were 10 L1s and 6 S1s.
"Liu Yan, you take the First Company and deal with them! It's best not to use guns! "Yue Zhong looked at the hundreds of zombies forming a horde, and ordered Liu Yan.
"Yes! Captain Yue! " Liu Yan pulled out the Imitation Tang Sword strapped to his waist, and shouted to the soldiers of the First Company: "Brothers, charge with me!"
"Kill!" The soldiers of the First Company uniformly pulled out the Imitation Tang Swords strapped to their waists, and with a loud roar, they fiercely charged towards the hundreds of zombies.
The First Company was formed by Yue Zhong's former close combat team 1, 2, 3, and 4, and other elite soldiers. They were extremely fierce in close combat. Soon, under Liu Yan's leadership, they rushed into the horde of zombies like tigers into a flock of sheep. They constantly waved the Imitation Tang Swords in their hands, and like mowing grass, they charged forward and beheaded the hundreds of zombies without any casualties.
To deal with ordinary zombies, the elites of the First Company didn't even need to use any skills.
"Kong Tianyu, clear the road!" Yue Zhong ordered.
"Yes! Captain Yue! "After receiving the order, Kong Tianyu shouted to the soldiers of the Second Company:" Brothers, follow me! "
After saying that, Kong Tianyu began to carefully clear the cars blocking the road. Inside the cars, there were still a lot of zombies trapped inside the cars. When they encountered those zombies, they would use the Imitation Tang Swords to behead the zombies inside the cars. After dealing with the zombies, the evolvers who had gone through Strength Enhancement worked together to drag the cars to one side. A few soldiers holding fuel suction devices would step forward to suck out the fuel from the cars, and load it into a fuel tank.
Sucking up all the fuel from the abandoned cars was a necessary procedure in the process of searching for supplies. Fuel was currently a non-renewable resource in this post-apocalyptic world, and Yue Zhong's forces were very frugal. Other than the government and military vehicles, the rest of the people did not have any vehicles to use.
Currently in Qing Yuan County, the most popular means of transportation was the bicycle. Many office workers rode bicycles to work. Bicycles had become the most popular means of transportation in Yue Zhong's forces. Many people were proud to own a bicycle.
In fact, if it was near Qing Yuan County, Big Cliff Town, or Stone Horse Town, the abandoned cars would be dismantled, and the engine and various parts would be recycled. The steel casing would be taken to the steel factory to be melted down, and the tires would be removed to be used as a backup. However, during the expedition, Yue Zhong only recycled the precious fuel, and could only ignore the rest for the time being.
One by one, the vehicles were towed away from the road, and their fuel was sucked dry.
At this moment, a 3.5-meter-tall zombie with thick arms and legs, covered in a layer of incomparably hard scales, and a pair of quick-witted eyes walked out from one of the side roads of the highway. It was a zombie that was filled with a terrifying deterrent force. On its right was half of a mutant cow's corpse, and its mouth was stained with a large amount of fresh blood.
"Level 45 Type II Power Evolved Infected L3. Possesses monstrous strength and incomparably tough scales. Possesses the skill Viral Infection, able to infect living things into infected people. "
When Yue Zhong saw the L3, this line of information flashed in his eyes.
The L3 also saw Yue Zhong's group, and casually threw the half of the mutant cow's corpse to one side. Like a tank, it strode towards Yue Zhong.
Yue Zhong looked at the L3, and with a point of his finger, a Fire Magic Array appeared out of thin air, and a fireball quickly flew out and exploded on the L3's body.
With a loud bang, the L3 was directly hit in the face by the fireball, but its body only swayed slightly, and it continued to stride towards Yue Zhong. Its face did not receive any damage from the fireball attack.
The L3 was about 3.5m tall, and with each step it took, it was close to twice that of a normal person. Its overall movement speed was actually three times faster than a S1 zombie.
"Everyone on standby!" Yue Zhong saw that the L3 actually ignored the fireball attack, and his heart sucked in a breath of cold air. After giving the order, he quickly rushed towards the L3.
