Because the supply boxes were refreshed too quickly and the water flow in this section of Fengming River was too fast, Tang Zheng could only keep up quickly.
Ji Yuntian was patrolling the surrounding area with his security squad. When he saw Tang Zheng and Ning Yuwei running out in Willis, he immediately wanted to follow them.
But Willis could only carry two people, and Ji Yuntian couldn't run to catch up, so he had to ask the soldiers to get the car.
Those motorcycles, jeeps, etc. were all parked far away, so he was destined to be late.
Willis bumped along the road and followed along the river.
Fortunately, this area has been explored, and there are no other survivors, so he can follow with confidence.
Ning Yuwei also knew that the situation was urgent. If she delayed for a while, the supply box might float far away.
Driving a Willys Jeep, the two pursued him along the river.
Soon, the vehicle followed and left the planned area of the base.
Sitting in the car, Tang Zheng discovered a problem.
That is, it is difficult to intercept the supply boxes floating along the current in the rapid current.
He could only hope that the supply box was blocked by something, and then he could go into the water to collect it.
When the supply box didn't stop by itself, Tang Zheng could only ask Ning Yuwei to drive and follow.
While driving, Ning Yuwei suddenly asked a question.
"General, when the supply box stops, should I go into the water to get it or you go into the water to get it?"
Tang Zheng took a look at Ning Yuwei's beautiful face and curvy figure, sighed and said: "When I was in school in Sanjiang, I once went diving at the beach. Because I dived too deep, my muscles cramped. There are hidden wounds on the rocks. Although it will still hurt when encountering water, the current shouldn’t trouble me, so I’ll go into the water.”
When Ning Yuwei heard this, she immediately shook her head: "That's not possible. I am your guard. My duty is to protect you. I cannot let you be in danger. I am a scout and have learned armed swimming, so I will still be me for a while. Get in the water.”
When Tang Zheng heard Ning Yuwei's fight, he could only nod calmly.
"Well, there's really nothing we can do about you."
The vehicle drove along the shore for a while, and finally stopped about four or five kilometers away from the base.
Because the supply box was blocked by a branch that reached the water, and stopped seven or eight meters away from the shore.
The two people got off the car. Tang Zheng first turned on the radar and checked to make sure there was no one around.
Ning Yuwei is ready to go into the water.
He took off his military cap and rolled up his hair on the back of his head.
He took down the sidearm, the pistol, the grenades and the saber.
Tang Zheng took the initiative to take these things.
"Leave it to me, leave it to me, and leave the clothes to me. Although I am your commander, I still have the strength. No matter how much clothes you have, I can get them."
Tang Zheng decided to do his part and help Ning Yuwei get clothes.
Moreover, Tang Zheng was a gentleman and would not watch Ning Yuwei take off her clothes.
He just stood next to Willis's vehicle, with his back to Ning Yuwei and stretched out his hand.
He didn't look at Ning Yuwei at all, just studying the structure of the vehicle.
The rearview mirror is nice...
Ning Yuwei was wearing a military uniform, so it was really inconvenient to get into the water like this.
Although there was only underwear inside, she didn't care about being seen by Tang Zheng. The soldiers of the system had unconditional trust in Tang Zheng.
Ning Yuwei unbuttoned her military uniform and prepared to take off her clothes.
"Tu tu tu tu~~~!"
The sound of vehicles rang out.
Guard squad leader Ji Yuntian finally rushed over.
In order to protect Tang Zheng in time, he didn't even have time to get on the jeep. He found a Sanbengzi and followed it. He hurriedly and slowly caught up.
Seeing Ji Yuntian's arrival, Ning Yuwei stopped taking off her clothes.
Ji Yuntian's eyes suddenly lit up when he saw the scene here.
The supply box has gone into the water!
No wonder the general chased him out eagerly. If he couldn't keep up, he would be easily lost.
Now that the supply box has been refreshed in the water, someone must go into the water to get it.
Ji Yuntian looked at the three people here and suddenly felt that his opportunity had come.
After following the general for so long, his current position is squad leader.
Ji Yuntian knew that the army was nearly full, and the general had sufficient funds, so it was not far away to upgrade to a battalion.
He doesn't want to stay in the position of squad leader forever, but there are so many people in the army, and they are all brave and good at fighting, so it is not easy for him to get ahead.
If you want to be promoted, you must perform well in front of the general.
Now is the best opportunity.
Naturally, a general cannot go into the water, and it is not appropriate for Ning Yuwei, a lesbian, to go into the water. He, Ji Yuntian, has the unshirkable responsibility in this matter.
So after getting out of the car, Ji Yuntian threw his military uniform and gun to the ground without saying a word.
Wearing a vest, we came to the water's edge.
"I'll do it, I'll do it. Just leave this kind of thing to me."
After saying that, he plunged in with a fierce thrust.
After a lot of fussing and fussing, Ji Yuntian fished out the supply box.
He came to Tang Zheng with his whole body wet and handed the supply box to Tang Zheng as if he was offering a treasure.
"General, the mission has been successfully completed!"
Tang Zheng looked at Ji Yuntian expressionlessly for a while, then patted him on the shoulder.
"You have a certain eye, kid."
"Hehe, it should be, it should be..."
Ji Yuntian received the praise and felt that all the bones in his body were lighter.
Tang Zheng didn't say another word, and returned to Willys Jeep's car with the supply box.
Ning Yuwei also returned to the driving position, started the vehicle, and returned to the base.
Ji Yuntian was also happy to drive the three-bouncer to keep up. He felt that he would be able to upgrade to a company commander in the future.
After returning to the base, Tang Zheng returned to the edge of the pool.
Tang Zheng took out the supply box and looked at it, feeling very excited in his heart.
This is the first time a supply box has appeared in the water.
And Tang Zheng had a feeling that since it was refreshed in water, the things inside might be related to water.
"What could it be?"
"If an aircraft carrier were to launch, I might not be able to fit it in this pool. It would be a bit difficult to get stranded here."
With anticipation, Tang Zheng opened the supply box.
With a flash of white light, the box disappeared, and a small bottle appeared in Tang Zheng's hand.
A light green glass bottle with some liquid inside, I don’t know what it is for.
"What is this?"
The system prompt sounds.
[Congratulations, General, for obtaining aquatic animal genetic fluid. 】
Tang Zheng was stunned for a moment: "Aquatic animal genetic fluid? I don't remember that there was this thing when I entered it into the folder?"
[General, the system has been updated. Because scientific research soldier Guo Yun has extracted a lot of animal genes and has achieved preliminary results in research, the genetic fluid has been automatically updated. 】
"Then what's the use of it?"
[This genetic fluid can be given to aquatic animals. After taking it, the animal will be like the soldiers purchased by the system, infinitely loyal to the general, and can be strengthened and upgraded to stars. Once the star is upgraded, it is equivalent to mutating once, so the general chooses aquatic animals. At this time, it is best to choose a powerful one. This kind of genetic medicine can make aquatic animals grow rapidly. 】
"Powerful aquatic animals? Those in rivers or those in the ocean?"
【Everything is OK. 】
After hearing the introduction of the system, Tang Zheng subconsciously put away the bottle of genetic medicine.
Tang Zheng was very satisfied with being able to tame a powerful aquatic animal.
He had seen mutated fish in the Bailong River, but Tang Zheng didn't think that kind of thing could meet his requirements.
It's a pity that the area he is in is a mountainous area with plains, deserts, and rivers, but it is really not easy to find large aquatic animals.
It seems that we can only try our luck.
After putting away the genetic medicine, Tang Zheng went back to the construction of the base.
That afternoon, the second convoy collecting construction materials came back.
This time, nearly a hundred heavy trucks brought back countless supplies.
Vehicles entered the resource recycling station one after another, and Tang Zheng continued to build the city wall on the other side.
The soldiers finished unloading and immediately ran for the third time.
At around nine o'clock at night, the team completed the feat of pulling goods three times a day, which also accelerated Tang Zheng's construction progress a lot.
In this day, Tang Zheng completed the construction of 2,200 meters of city wall, and almost half of the city wall outside the south gate has been built.
During this process, Tang Zheng also built a water gate across the Fengming River.
The structure of the water gate is similar to that of the land gate. The span of the entire city gate reaches fifty meters. The winch on the city wall drives a huge metal gate.
When the metal door is raised, it can reach a height of fifteen meters. This height can even pass some medium-sized ships.
Fengming River is not a big river, and large ships cannot enter it.
After the alloy door landed, it went directly into the water five meters deep.
Even if someone wanted to enter the city through the water gate, they would have to dive five meters to do so.
There was a sentry tower on the city wall, and Tang Zheng didn't believe that someone could do this under the supervision of the sentries in the sentry tower.
And during the construction process, Tang Zheng discovered that because the city walls on the west and north sides were mountainous, there was no need to build the ultimate city wall. As long as the city walls were strengthened, they would be almost on par with the south and east walls.
In this way, construction costs will be greatly reduced.
Tang Zheng estimated that in three days, he would be able to complete the construction of the city's outer wall, followed by the construction of the separation zone between the inner city and the outer city, as well as the buffer zone.
When the city wall is completed and the watchtowers and bunkers are arranged, the prototype of the entire city will be born.
Then there was the infrastructure construction. He could also notify the Fourth Platoon in Tailai Town and bring his family over.
Because at that time, there was nothing in the outer city that needed special construction, so even if survivors arrived, it wouldn't matter much.
With the city wall blocking the inner city area, people in the outer city don't know what happens in the inner city.
At that time, there will be no problem whether it is to take over the family or continue to recruit survivors.
