On the fifth day after entering the county, the number of zombies decreased significantly. By the afternoon, zombies appeared sporadically, posing no threat at all.
At night, there are even fewer zombies.
Considering that everyone's physical strength and abilities had been depleted very quickly in the past few days, and they had not had a good rest, Gu Xiaoming asked everyone to have a good rest at night, and then group up again the next morning to completely clean up the county.
There aren't many zombies that appear at night, and the night watchers can clean them up.
Jianyue also rarely had a good sleep.
It had snowed for five days, and the snow accumulated in a thick layer, about half a person's height.
The zombies have been extremely active in the past few days and have been moving around, but they have not been trapped in the same place. The snow has also been trampled and melted a little.
Early the next morning, everyone organized into groups.
The snowfall has not stopped, and the thick snow on the streets has affected movement. Each group is assigned a fire power user. Once the fireball comes out, the snow melts, and the road becomes much smoother.
It took two days to basically clean up the remaining zombies in the county. There might still be some in the corners, but they would not pose a threat.
Gu Xiaoming started asking people to clean up supplies. Zhou Youan and Chen Yun were mainly responsible for supermarkets and convenience stores, while soldiers and superpowers cleaned up all other supplies that might be used on the streets.
Households are not within the search range, there are not many supplies available inside, and it is a waste of time.
The supplies are still being cleaned here, and Gu Xiaoming has arranged for people to transport them back.
The trucks they drove before were all ordinary trucks, which could not pass through the thick snow. If they had to go, they could only let the fire power users melt the snow in front.
This move is laborious and laborious, but for the sake of supplies and the survivors in the base, the fire power users can only work hard.
After searching for supplies, Jian Yue left with the returning team. People with fire powers had been melting the snow on the road, and it was still passable, but she didn't dare to drive too fast for fear of accidents.
Before the supplies were delivered, Gu Xiaoming led a small team to stay and guard the supplies. Zhou Youan had to make a few more trips, and everyone else went home.
After nine days of this operation, there was no news from Jian Yue and others. In addition, Xie Zhang and Yan Yunjie returned injured, which made Shen Huijuan and others somewhat worried.
That afternoon, when she saw Jian Yue and others coming back, Shen Huijuan was immediately overjoyed. She glanced at the people entering the room, but didn't see Zhou You'an. Her expression suddenly changed: "Where's Xiao Zhou? Why didn't he come back?"
Tan Zhewen was amused by Shen Huijuan's reaction and hurriedly explained: "Aunt Shen, don't worry, he is fine. He is just helping the brigade to transport supplies and will not be able to come back for the time being. We are all back safely and he will be fine."
Shen Huijuan was relieved now. He was her favorite son-in-law, so nothing would happen to him!
There is currently no second person in the base who can match her daughter.
Later in the evening, Yan Min came over and made it clear that he was here for dinner and wanted to eat hot pot.
Shen Huijuan immediately agreed and decided to have hot pot at night, and asked Jianyue to call Yan Yao together.
After eating, Jian Yue and others went to bed early. First, it was too cold, and second, they were tired. There was no place as comfortable as home.
The snowstorm is still continuing, and the snow outside is getting thicker and thicker. Jianyue has no plans to go out. With sufficient supplies, being lazy in winter is not a big problem.
Zhou Youan came back two days later, covered in snowflakes.
Shen Huijuan asked for help and prepared another hot pot meal.
