"Currently, most of the urban areas are still under our control, and the buildings are relatively intact. We have also arranged for soldiers to collect and transfer materials left in various shelters and warehouses." A temporary room In the opened communication room, Chen Xin was talking to the military commander in the urban area, the general he had met before, and listened to the other party's introduction to the current situation in the urban area.
"Then we now organize a group of people to return to the urban area to collect supplies. Is this plan feasible?" Chen Xin asked the general. Although he was very concerned about the supplies left in the urban area, Chen Xin would not say that he would take them. Human lives are exchanged for supplies.
If the general told him that the situation in the urban area was relatively dangerous and was not suitable for organizing manpower to recover materials, then he would not insist on carrying out this plan.
Although it is important and meaningful to recycle materials left behind in urban areas, it must be done relatively safely.
If it was like a post-apocalyptic survival movie, where collecting supplies would cost a few lives, then Chen Xin would never be willing to do such a thing.
Fortunately, the current situation in the urban area is pretty good.
According to the situation reported to him by the general, most of the urban area is still in the hands of the military. After the initial encounter, the alien creatures also appeared to be somewhat weak and did not invade the urban area on a large scale. Some areas in the lake area that were not easy to defend were voluntarily abandoned by the military and turned into occupied areas.
In addition, the penetration of the worker ants into the city, which was a headache for everyone before, is not serious. This is mainly due to the reinforced concrete. After all, although the worker ants have good digging capabilities, they do not seem to have any acid corrosion. capacity, we cannot dig reinforced concrete for the time being.
This has improved the security of the city a lot, and the feasibility of the material collection operation planned by Chen Xin has also increased a lot.
"If you want to collect supplies, I think it is feasible. As long as you operate in a relatively low-risk area, safety can still be guaranteed." After listening to Chen Xin's ideas, the general agreed to Chen Xin's plan after thinking about it for a while.
Although the war was still going on at the front, it was risky to organize manpower in the rear to carry out such a material recovery operation. However, after the general and Chen Xin made some evaluations together, they both felt that the risk was worth taking.
On the one hand, the military is currently controlling the situation and the safety of the personnel involved in the operation can be guaranteed. On the other hand, these supplies are very important to the hundreds of thousands of people temporarily placed in the dome city.
After all, these hundreds of thousands of people suddenly evacuated the city and left in a hurry. Everyone only carried their most important belongings, and not much else.
Even the city government staff prioritized relocating people at that time, and abandoned a large amount of supplies, equipment and other things that were inconvenient to move.
It was indeed a practical necessity to give up these things during the evacuation, but now that hundreds of thousands of people have been resettled, the shortage of materials they face is also an indisputable fact.
Although the country has been organizing transportation capacity to allocate materials, compared with transporting materials to the dome city from other places, the fastest way is to go directly back to the city to collect the leftover materials.
Moreover, giving up so many things like this would be a huge loss, and Chen Xin was reluctant to part with it no matter what.
Although this makes him seem a bit petty, in this day and age, save money when you can, otherwise life will be difficult.
As the old saying goes, if you are not a housekeeper, you will not know that firewood and rice are expensive. Although Chen Xin was the head of the scientific research center in the past, the housekeeper was Tang Tang, the administrative director. She would handle all the problems, and Chen Xin did not need to worry about these things.
But now, he is the actual person in charge of the Dome City. He has to answer all the questions, and all kinds of problems are suddenly placed on him.
Facing a shortage of supplies, Chen Xin could have ignored anything and reported directly to his superiors for material support, but doing so would be a bit irresponsible.
Out of a sense of responsibility, Chen Xin decided to find a way to collect the leftover materials in the city.
After discussing the specific action plan with the general, Chen Xin hung up the call and prepared to mobilize a team to return to the city to collect supplies.
This news soon became known to the hundreds of thousands of people in the dome city. Although some staff had already come and transferred part of the labor force to participate in the construction of the dome city, this was as high as the risk of returning to the city to collect supplies. Totally different.
Suddenly, very few people were willing to take the initiative to sign up.
Because it may indeed be necessary to risk one's life, Chen Xin, after discussing with the leaders of the city government, adhered to the principle of voluntariness as much as possible and did not intend to force the public to participate in this operation.
In addition to conducting publicity and persuasion as much as possible to get everyone to sign up, the city government mainly arranged for the police and city staff for this operation.
It is the duty of the police to protect the people. In addition, the SWAT team of the city police station itself has a considerable degree of firepower. It may not be able to deal with those alien creatures, but it is still better than unarmed civilians.
In the end, in addition to the SWAT team, Chen Xin also brought along some people who signed up voluntarily and some staff from the city government.
For the sake of operational safety, Chen Xin personally led the team this time, driving a white dragon as an escort.
Qin Lan also drove Zhu Luan, this time operating with his former colleagues from the SWAT team after a long absence, while Mo Qingyan drove Lu Shu as support for the two of them.
Zhu Luan's handsome and beautiful appearance and strong fighting power make his colleagues in Qin Lan's SWAT team envious. This kind of powerful equipment is more attractive to them than any peerless beauty.
Ding Ning even took advantage of her good relationship with Qin Lan to climb up into Zhu Luan's cockpit to experience it, and then pestered Chen Xin to get one for herself.
Of course Chen Xin knew that Ding Ning was just joking, but he did have some thoughts about the Police Titan at this time. However, the most important thing right now was to collect supplies, so this idea could only be put aside temporarily and did not affect Chen Xin. New focus.
"It is dangerous to go back to the city to collect supplies this time. Although the military is still controlling the situation and the area we are going to is relatively safe, the danger still exists, so everyone"
