Tang Zheng left on a plane, and the troops behind him followed him one after another.
Although many helicopters do not yet have pilots, the scouts in the army also know how to fly aircraft, but they are not as good as professional pilots.
All the bird helicopters followed into the sky to protect the general as he left.
On the transport helicopter, many troops from the field company boarded the plane.
This transport plane can carry forty-six soldiers, while a platoon of the Light Chasing Army can carry forty-five soldiers.
Twenty transport planes can transport 900 people away, almost all the people here can be taken away.
But there are still a lot of people left to drive, and now there are armored vehicles, tanks and artillery here.
The soldiers hung the cannon on the vehicle, and then loaded some supplies collected along the way into the vehicle.
The main material is food.
With the survivors arriving in Chasing Light City one after another, the city is now quite crowded, which can almost be described as overcrowded.
There are more than 100,000 people living on every square kilometer of land. This number is very scary.
Fortunately, when the city was first built, there were almost no large bungalows in ordinary residential buildings. After all, it was the end of the world, and it would be good to have a roof over our heads.
Therefore, almost all residential buildings here are apartment-style houses with an area of 30 square meters.
There are bedrooms, bathrooms, and open kitchens, which is enough.
Therefore, there are quite a lot of residents in the residential buildings in Zhuguang City. There are seven floors above ground and basements. Each residential building has more than a thousand residents.
And this is not the most densely populated place in Zhuguang City. The most densely populated areas are the various hotels in Zhuguang City.
Hotels are all 20-square-meter rooms with two beds and one bathroom. Usually mercenaries and adventurers live in hotels, and the density of people is even greater.
With more people, the need for food has also greatly increased. There is no shortage of fresh water in Zhuguang City, but the food crisis has begun to emerge.
Tang Zheng's resource recycling station collects a lot of things every day, but the food collected is the least.
Many of these life-saving items are kept secretly by survivors and are not put on the market to allow middlemen to make the difference.
Therefore, Tang Zheng asked the Light-Zhuijun to leave other things alone when they went out, but they must take away food when they saw it.
Qingquan County has just been partially conquered and is in the stage of land reclamation. It is still quite rich in resources.
Moreover, more than a hundred days after the end of the world, most of the food can still be preserved. The Light Chasing Army has accumulated quite a lot of food in these days.
Armored personnel carriers and helicopter transport planes are now directly transformed into grain transport brigade, loading all the grain into trucks.
Even the tanks had trailers attached to them, which contained a lot of food.
In addition to food, there is another kind of commodity, and a lot of it was collected this time.
That's the television.
The TV station is about to be established, and the collection of TV sets has actually started long ago, but there has been no large-scale action and the number collected is not large.
When he came this time, Tang Zheng made an explanation, and tens of thousands of TV sets were collected accordingly.
These television sets were specially installed in several helicopters and left with the large troops.
Many soldiers directly became drivers and drove away in armored vehicles and tanks.
Helicopters also took off one after another and returned to Light Chaser City.
Tang Zheng's helicopter landed on the rooftop of the official residence, then went down the elevator and arrived at the lobby on the first floor, where Guo Yun was already waiting.
"General, fortunately, you have fulfilled your mission. The TV station's drawing is completed!"
Tang Zheng took the drawing from Guo Yun's hand and was very excited.
After completing the construction of this blueprint, he can upgrade to the group leader.
It was early July when the end of the world began, and it is now past mid-October, more than a hundred days later.
During this period of time, Tang Zheng has come a long way, which can be said to be joyful, but also a lot of hard work.
Moreover, in Tang Zheng's opinion, neither the platoon leader, the company commander, nor even the battalion commander could be regarded as senior officers.
Only when you reach the stage of regimental commander can you be considered a senior officer.
Tang Zheng suppressed his excitement and used the drawings from the TV station.
[TV station: The price is 300,000 gold. 】
Tang Zheng was quite satisfied with this price, which was slightly cheaper than banks and banknote printing factories.
"Is there any place left on the east bank of Fengming River?"
"Keep it, General. The bank to the east has not been open to survivors, just to reserve some space for the General."
Tang Zheng nodded. He also knew that the Zhuguang Army was in urgent need of land and the city was overcrowded. He still reserved a place, which made many people dissatisfied.
The current Ministry of Interior has found itself several times, hoping to open up the area on the east bank of the Fengming River.
Regarding the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Tang Zheng felt that it could only be regarded as average. In fact, this group of survivors was not bad and worked hard. Since everything was newly built and supervised by the Light-Zhuijun Army, corruption rarely happened.
But after all, it was composed of survivors. Tang Zheng felt that it was not very easy to use. At least some core things, there was no way to tell them.
The same goes for the Public Security Department. The current Director of the Public Security Department is frightened when he sees him, but his work ability is still somewhat insufficient.
At least the people from his Public Security Department didn't notice the Fengming River where the police gathered last time.
I hope that after being promoted to team leader this time, Tang Zheng's men will be able to have enough talents from all walks of life to take over these important tasks when they get the chance.
Together with Guo Yun, we came to the east bank of Fengming River, the southeast corner of the city.
This is the area reserved by Tang Zheng for building a TV station.
Now that it was getting dark, Tang Zheng came to the regional center and purchased a TV station.
Three hundred thousand funds were spent and the display was completed.
A wide and flat yard, a majestic office building, and a tall signal tower all appeared in an instant.
The power grid lines outside have been laid, and high-voltage wire towers have been erected in the wilderness, all the way into the Light Chaser City.
Countless underground optical cables are also laid under the ground of Chasing Light City, and the infrastructure work is extremely solid.
The construction of the TV station was completed, and thirty staff members were hired here.
Most of them are technicians, and there is only one leader, a young man named Li Xiaoqiang, who is the director of the TV station.
This was a non-staff member of the Light Chasing Army and was infinitely loyal to Tang Zheng. After he appeared, he greeted Tang Zheng respectfully and then introduced the situation of the TV station.
"General, our TV station is currently connected to seven surrounding survival bases, but this does not include any of the 12 alliance bases."
"Our signal coverage has actually expanded to a large extent. If it were before the end of the world, everyone across the country would be able to watch our programs, but that is not possible now. Except for us, there are few signal towers in the surrounding area that have resumed construction, so the current viewing area is still Concentrated within the 200 kilometers surrounding Zhuguang City."
Tang Zheng nodded: "Don't be impatient. This is our first construction. It's great to have such an effect. However, we are not satisfied. Next, we must continue to mobilize our strength and expand to the surrounding areas, at least to Fengcheng and Mobei." We should focus on the development of the two rivers and the two rivers. As for the alliance, we don’t need to pay attention to it. Soon, they will beg us to connect the TV lines.”
"clear!"
Patting Li Xiaoqiang's shoulder, Tang Zheng said earnestly: "As our mouthpiece, the TV station must broadcast things that are in our interests. I don't care what you usually broadcast. Movies and TV series before the end of the world, you can do whatever you want. Play, but when the stakes are high, you must think carefully.”
"Don't worry, General. I know this completely. We will always put the interests of our Light Chasing Army first in everything. If I don't do well, you can remove me from my post or shoot me."
"No, let's do our best. But TVs haven't spread to families yet. Tomorrow TV sets will be launched on the market. After ten or eight days, your TV station should become popular."
"Thank you, General. Then I will start recruiting employees tomorrow."
"Okay, you can contact Qi Zhengyang and get two million from the bank as the start-up capital of the TV station."
After giving instructions to Li Xiaoqiang, Tang Zheng left the TV station.
Now that the conditions for upgrading to group leader have been completed, Tang Zheng did not upgrade immediately. He still had one job to do.
That is to build military camps.
He currently only has one military camp that can accommodate a battalion of soldiers. If he builds a new army, he will not have a place to live.
The military camp cost 200,000 gold each, so Tang Zheng selected five at once.
The five military camps can also accommodate 12,500 people. Together with the previous one, they can accommodate a total of 15,000 people.
Of course, the size of the regiment that Tang Zheng wants to expand is larger than this, but now that he has just been promoted to the regiment leader, it is impossible to fill up the soldiers at once. The six military camps are enough for the time being.
After the construction of the military camp was completed, Tang Zheng walked around the inner city and placed everything in place.
There are them in all directions, so troops can be dispatched quickly from any direction.
After placing all the military camps, he returned to his official residence alone.
He came to the bedroom on the third floor, closed the door, and told Ning Yuwei that he would not accept any more requests from anyone tonight, and then started to upgrade the group leader.
Opening the system page, Tang Zheng saw the four conditions for upgrading the group leader, all of which had been completed.
"It's not easy. Let's upgrade now."
Tang Zheng clicked to upgrade, and the system prompt came.
[It has been detected that the upgrade conditions have been completed. Upgrading the captain requires two million funds. Will the general upgrade immediately? 】
"Upgrade now."
[Confirm upgrade. Upgrade completed! 】
After deducting the two million in funds, Tang Zheng now has 6.75 million in funds.
There is still 1.3 million in funds, which have just been used to purchase military camps and TV stations. The remaining money is purely at Tang Zheng's discretion.
The upgrade is completed and the system prompts again.
[Congratulations to the general, you have successfully upgraded to the team leader. Now please set the number of people for the team. 】
Tang Zheng took a deep breath and finally reached this step.
Thank you ~ (ε｀), you came from the clouds to express your gratitude to the two book friends for your reward.
