Su Hao tried his best, but after half an hour, several government officials escorted by black-clad soldiers began to contact the residents.
Just like Qiu Yu said. They really care about image. Contrary to the force he showed when he came into contact with Su Hao, he had clearly abandoned most of the people here, but he still showed a refreshing smile and used an exciting tone to describe to the survivors a better future that was impossible to come.
Even if they want to take away all the adult males, they say that the shelter is not yet safe and needs strong people to build it first, and they will come here to pick up everyone soon. This statement won't deceive the people who stayed for long, but as long as they can be deceived now, they won't need to worry about future problems.
Qiu Yu used this half hour to unlock five more B-level and two C-level tasks. But Qiu Yu still can't be perfect, and the efficiency of other players can be imagined. There are ninety-eight single adult men leaving this place. As far as this group of people are concerned, together with the first completed part, they have only unlocked thirty-one B-levels, not even one-third.
In addition, the good news is that this time the government's unilateral robbery has been turned into a population transaction by Qiu Yu. Su Hao first paid 134 adult males, and received in return eight assault rifles, eleven military pistols, dozens of magazines and grenades. This is not a one-time transaction. When the government comes back to select the people it needs and takes away the adult males who come here in the future, it will provide some other things.
Shortly after the deal was concluded, another large transport helicopter hovered over the roof.
The helicopter's rotor diameter exceeds 25 meters and can transport more than 30 people at a time. But even with such a Big Mac, the sound it makes is not much louder than a car engine. This noise reduction technology alone can throw away the helicopters of the Zero Zero Division several blocks away. Su Hao had to re-evaluate the government's strength in this world.
Of course Qiu Yu will not be the first to leave. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Qiu Yu explained the important things to Su Hao again.
"In order to unlock future residential buildings, priority will be given to laboratories from near to far, followed by the direction of the police station. If time allows, try to unlock all C-level and above buildings. I'm afraid that when the difficulty level increases the day after tomorrow, it will be difficult to move outside. If something happens In this case, use the unlocked future residential buildings as nodes and transfer them to the laboratory."
"Transfer only the day after tomorrow? Didn't you say that just moving outside is difficult? No matter how lucky we are, there will be at least one or two hundred meters between the houses in the direction of the laboratory, right? Even with this distance, we can die now A bunch of people.”
"It won't take long for Qian Xiao to be here. If he is here, he can get everyone to the laboratory safely by running a few more times. If that doesn't work, ask him to call Jiuwei and Li Ningfeng. However, This is the place where we communicate and trade with the government. People who heard the broadcast before will continue to come here, so everyone can't leave. We can let the three of them take turns to sit here according to the situation. No need to stick to it, if even they feel If you can’t hold on any longer, then give up here completely.”
Su Hao hesitated, "If we go to the laboratory like this, we won't attract people from the government there, right?"
"Don't worry about this. There are game intelligence controls, and in their eyes they can't judge that the laboratory is superior to other buildings. After completely giving up on N75, you have to take the initiative to let them go to the laboratory to continue trading with you. etc. After all the existing unlocks are completed, you can try to ask them for people to come over, or send some players to their shelters to develop new unlocks.”
When the transport helicopter arrived for the fourth time, Qiu Yu finally reminded, "Compared with convening people, the greater value of broadcasting now is to spread information. Put in all the intelligence about unlocking and what you want to say to the players, we don't Whatever you need to worry about, as long as it’s practical. Also, if you have anything you can’t decide, you can discuss it with Qian Xiao. Don’t ever think of looking down on him.”
After the helicopter took off, there was no case of covering the windows or covering the eyes of the passengers. Qiuyu threw away the gas mask and seized this rare opportunity to observe the terrain and the movements of zombies from a height.
It's a pity that the observation time this time will not be too long. It only took twenty minutes for the helicopter to make a round trip. Excluding the time to get on and off the plane, the one-way trip from the N75 building to the shelter only took seven or eight minutes. But in fact, in less than five minutes, the helicopter began to land on the roof of a twenty-story building.
After flying closer, Qiu Yu discovered that the building was actually hollow. After the helicopter entered from the top of the building, it descended all the way inside the building. It finally descended dozens of meters above the building before stopping in an underground square the size of a football field.
The soldiers in black nearby saw that the helicopter had completely stalled and made a few gestures upward. The entrance to the roof nearly a hundred meters high was closed with the sound of humming machinery. The entire underground square is quite bright, not darkened at all because the natural light source is blocked.
Qiu Yu looked around. There are several entrances to this underground plaza. Each entrance is quite wide, making it impossible for helicopters to pass through, but large enough for tanks to pass through. Judging from the traces left on the ground, it must have been filled with quite heavy tanks not long ago.
There were several machine guns on the high platforms around the square, but no one was there to control them. I don’t know whether to say it’s a lack of urgency or a lack of staff.
"You guys, come here with me." After counting the number of people, a soldier in black led the team towards one of the entrances. Although he did not look back, perhaps because of his many experience in dealing with it, he spoke a set of words that could calm people's nervousness without being too pretentious. He spoke fluently, "From fuel to weapons, from food to There are a large number of daily necessities here. The other entrances are storage areas divided by type. You cannot approach them without authorization. The road we are taking now is to the residential area. Regardless of ordinary people, soldiers or the government The officials all live here.”
The entrance passage to the living area is not long. After more than ten meters, you can see rooms one after another on both sides of the wide driveway. Qiu Yu glanced in as he passed an open room. The depth of these rooms is quite astonishing, at least Qiu Yu couldn't see the end at a glance. The room was filled with bunk beds of the same style. Some soldiers in black were either lying on the beds to rest, or gathering in twos and threes to talk in the gaps between the beds. When they saw a group of people passing by the door, some people waved and said hello.
The soldier leading the crowd made a brief introduction, "These are army barracks. There are thirty in total, and each can accommodate a squadron."
"Then aren't there three brigades of troops here?"
Qiu Yu heard the voice was familiar, and his senses spread over it, and he found that the person who asked the question was Jabba who had just handed over the house to him with great excitement not long ago.
The soldier seemed to have been waiting for someone to ask this question. As soon as Jabba finished speaking, he immediately answered, "There are sixty barracks at the other two entrances in front of us, plus the scattered security personnel and positions. There are ten squadrons of the order, and there is a total strength of one regiment here."
The soldier's words made the aborigines beside Qiu Yu show expressions of surprise and relief.
Qiu Yu patted Jabba's shoulder and said, "Explain to me the organization of the troops here."
Recognizing Qiu Yu, Jabba's lips twitched and he said helplessly, "Twelve people make up a small team, ten small teams make up a squadron, ten squadrons make up a large team, ten large teams make up a regiment, and ten regiments make up one Legion.”
"How many actual combatants are there in that regiment?"
"Of course there are 12,000 people." Jabba woke up and realized that Qiu Yu did have a problem with his IQ. He couldn't even do such a simple arithmetic problem.
Qiu Yu frowned, "Twelve thousand people are fighting with guns? Who will do the logistics work such as medical rescue and material transportation?"
Jabba's eyes flashed with confusion, but he spoke normally, "Based on the squad, each soldier has part-time jobs such as communications, medical aid, food supply, and ammunition supply. Whether it is a legion battle or Team missions all operate in this mode."
This army model is indeed incredibly efficient. Each team can independently respond to almost any situation. And when these teams are like independent parts that form a larger machine, the machine can start running quickly without debugging.
But the problem is, maybe doctors and chefs can work part-time, but without a dedicated transportation team, we can't let the people who supply ammunition and food carry dozens or even hundreds of kilograms of stuff, right? If it is an intermediate civilization, it is estimated that it can indeed solve the problem of individual soldiers carrying weight, but it seems a bit nondescript to put the army model of an intermediate civilization here.
After passing the soldiers' barracks, independent houses appeared, with some benches and flower beds around them. If you ignore the size of the houses, this is simply a high-end residential area.
Regarding this place, the soldier only said that important personnel lived here, and then he kept speeding up to let everyone follow.
This area was much larger than the place where more than 3,000 soldiers lived. After a long time, just when everyone thought they were going to go on like this, they suddenly became empty and came to a vast but crowded space.
The houses here are all simple buildings made of iron and plastic, one after another. Walking in a narrow aisle that is not wide is like walking through a maze.
Fortunately, the lane along the way is not occupied, so you can use it as a reference no matter how you walk.
"This used to be a place where tanks and armored vehicles were parked, but now all the tanks have been driven out to deal with the zombies, so it has been changed into a residence for the survivors who were temporarily rescued. You will live here two days out of every three days in the future. .”
"What about one more day?" someone asked.
"Then it's your mission time." The back half of this space is occupied by a row of large military tents. There are still people standing guard in front of many tents. The soldier led everyone to the door of the largest tent and took a look inside. "It's just time for you, go in. The people inside will tell you what to do next."
The words of the leading soldier whetted everyone's appetite. But after entering the tent, a black-faced officer explained everything in just one sentence, "Starting from the day after tomorrow, you will carry out zombie clearing missions every three days."
This is obviously different from what was promised. A group of people ask and encourage each other with their eyes. But until the officer asked them to go to the box in the corner to collect military uniforms and weapons, no one stood up to question it.
This situation is a bit like the intimidation given to newcomers by some special forces. You don't need to question, just obey. To give you an idea, the items in the box are mostly good and bad. Those with high obedience can get the best equipment by going up first.
In order not to attract attention, Qiu Yu was not the first to go up and get something. Instead, use perceptual spread scanning after approaching a certain distance. The results he obtained forced him to readjust his thinking mode.
There is no difference in the contents of the box. They were all standard military uniforms with their epaulettes removed, as well as pitch black daggers more than twenty centimeters long.
Many people here have chopped down zombies. Except for Qiu Yu, they all know that the longer the weapon for killing zombies, the better. If we say that we are here not to do construction but to fight zombies, we can barely accept it. After all, judging from what the government has done in the past few days, no one thought they would provide protection for free. But asking yourself to fight zombies not with a gun, but with a small and short dagger is simply incomprehensible. This is really no different from directly committing suicide.
When the box was turned over and all the weapons were found to be daggers, the atmosphere in the entire tent instantly became gloomy.
The black-faced officer said loudly, "At this moment when the city is on the verge of destruction, everyone must contribute their own strength. Since you are here, you must complete the arrangements while receiving safety guarantees, whether you like it or not. A mission for you. If you don’t agree, you can leave this shelter at any time.”
Someone hid in the crowd and protested, "But you can't let us use this kind of thing to fight zombies. This is massacre in disguise."
"I said, your mission starts the day after tomorrow." The black-faced officer patted the map behind him. "This shelter has two large exits for helicopters to enter and exit, four medium-sized exits for vehicles to enter and exit, and twelve small personnel exits. Three of the small exits are near us. Any one of the three exits is connected to the most prosperous places in the city. There are not evacuation areas, supermarkets, hospitals, banks, everything, there was no such thing before us. People have moved it. Although a lot of it has been moved after several material rescues by the army, there are still a lot of good things left there. And the only ones guarding these good things are those who wandered from other places after the army cleared them. A small number of zombies have come. If you feel that the weapons in your hands are not good, if you want to eat better food, if you want your family to come here, or even live in the high-end residential area you saw on the road, you can collect them back. Something to change.”
