E City, which has a harsh living environment, increasingly does not regard E City's labor force as human beings.
Chen Hu ordered that a city wall be built in City E, so the strong labor force going from Xiangcheng to City E began to work in the dark, day and night.
The Qu family sent additional supervisors, divided into several batches, to keep an eye on these survivors 24 hours a day.
Once a survivor was lazy, the overseer would come forward and punch and kick those survivors.
Not only that, they didn't let the survivors leave E City.
There are survivors who would rather leave City E without taking any money or food rations.
The end result was that he was stripped naked and tied to a pillar for everyone to watch.
It is said that under the leadership of Hu Yanxiang, they have collected all the [Energy Water Drops] from the survivors.
Several people died because of this.
The vendor asked curiously:
"Aren't [energy water drops] readily available in our Xiangcheng city? Are they worth dying for?"
He doesn't quite understand how the people of E City are lacking in supplies.
Because he has been staying in Xiangcheng and has never been out, he lacks the most realistic understanding of the external environment.
The vendor only knows that [Energy Water Droplets] can be seen everywhere on the construction site in the west of Xiangcheng.
As long as you participate in building the city wall, [Energy Water Drops] will be provided for free.
Chichuan didn't know how to explain it. E City was really too poor.
He could only continue,
"Because those survivors in the past did not have the supplies to escape, and they were watched very strictly by the E City base.
"So they tried to send us a message, hoping that we could reach out to rescue them."
After hearing the news from Chichuan, whether it was Cao Feng, Qin Zhen, or Hua Mi, they all frowned.
Hua Mi asked coldly, holding her stomach.
"You were so determined when you left, why are you coming back now?"
When Hu Yanxiang left with those survivors, she told these survivors.
No matter what happens in the future, Xiangcheng will no longer accept them, open the door to these survivors, and welcome them with open arms.
This is very clear, and it’s not like I haven’t said it before.
Qin Zhen nodded and said,
"Furthermore, our Xiangcheng base is currently facing internal and external troubles, and there are many things going on. Where can we find the time and energy to rescue this group of workers who have left?"
The labor force left Xiangcheng in batches. The first time Hu Yanxiang took away more than a thousand people.
One after another, it is said that when they arrived in E City, there were only a thousand people left.
Later, due to the continuous changes in the external environment of the Xiangcheng base, more and more people left the Xiangcheng base.
There are probably two to three thousand survivors in City E alone now.
To rescue these two to three thousand people from City E would require a lot of manpower and material resources.
The current Xiangcheng base has insufficient manpower.
Hua Mi refused directly.
"No, let them find their own way to get outside the Xiangcheng base. Don't go to the south and east of Xiangcheng. They have been sealed off."
"Western Xiangcheng will also be closed soon."
"If they can arrive in the west of Xiangcheng before it is closed, then the Xiangcheng base can accept them."
"If they have no way to reach the west of Xiangcheng, then so be it. Life or death is their own choice, no different than anyone else."
After saying this, Hua Mi stood up with a puffy belly. She walked up to Cao Feng, raised her hand, and patted Cao Feng's shoulder heavily.
"I know that as a garrison, it goes against your professional ethics to do nothing to save someone."
"But you have to think about what the situation is like now. Your commander is resisting the zombie wave in the north."
"He didn't bring many people to the north in the first place. Almost all the elite garrison troops in the Xiangcheng base were dragged to the north."
"And if you stay in the Xiangcheng base, you need to divide a group of people in the south, and a group of people in the east. More energy should be focused on the west. The battle in the west will be difficult to fight."
"I estimate that in less than two days, the zombies from the south will roll to the west, leaving us not much time. We should not distract our energy to help those who don't even know what they want. people."
Those survivors said they had done something wrong, and Hua Mi also felt they had done something wrong.
In the message they sent to Xiangcheng, they deeply regretted their original insistence.
And explain how they think about problems too simply and view the world too naively.
But what can you do if you realize your mistake?
Not everyone is like Hua Mi and has a chance to start over again.
You only have one life, if you make one wrong step, it will be a doomed outcome.
With today's results, these survivors who went to E City should accept their original duty without hesitation.
Everyone is like this and must pay for their own actions.
Cao Feng nodded, stood in front of Hua Mi, and whispered,
"I understand, Sister Hua, I won't act out of emotion."
Garrison is the last line of defense for mankind, and there is nothing wrong with that.
However, this is also divided into primary bottom line and secondary bottom line.
It is impossible for Cao Feng to leave such a large Xiangcheng base unprotected, and instead allocate manpower to E City to rescue people.
City E is so far away from the Xiangcheng base. After they leave, the Xiangcheng base will immediately fall into the crisis of empty defense.
No matter how thick the power grid is and how high the city wall is, there is always a risk for the Xiangcheng base.
Cao Feng would not be so stupid.
After receiving Cao Feng's assurance, Hua Mi finally felt relieved.
She looked at the busy west city wall project. She didn't know how many people there were from Chen Hu and Qu Shiheng.
According to the news Chichuan received, people enter the Xiangcheng base every day, obtain [Energy Water Drops], and then take them out of the city in batches.
Wherever this batch of [Energy Water Drops] went, there is no way to trace it.
And in this emergency situation, it is clear that E City has an evil plot against the Xiangcheng base.
She knew clearly that Chen Hu wanted her to die, but Hua Mi could not do anything.
She secretly resented it, raised her hand to caress her big belly, turned to Chichuan and said,
"If you spread the word outside, just say that before I am born, the Xiangcheng base will no longer produce [Energy Water Drops] in large quantities."
If this is the case, and someone still smuggles [Energy Water Droplets] from the Xiangcheng base to E City, it can only prove that there are indeed a lot of [Energy Water Droplets] in Xiangcheng.
People in Xiangcheng no longer cherish it.
"In addition, I will come to the west every day to inspect the progress of the project and solve everything that can be solved."
Next, Hua Mi once again told the contractor to lay out more layers of power grid and build the city wall stronger.
Time was urgent. Not long after Hua Mi finished speaking, the garrison came to report that a small group of zombies had been purged to the west.
Cao Feng raised his hand, led the garrison in the west, and hurriedly rushed towards the power grid.
The gunfire rang out, Hua Mi stood there and listened, looking very unhappy.
She turned her head and said to Qin Zhen,
"Be prepared, today's zombie flow will not be destroyed so easily."
Listening to the continuous gunshots, Hua Mi knew that there was a big problem.
Cao Feng was completely trapped in the west of Xiangcheng, and only the superpowers and ordinary survivors were left to work hard on their own.
She turned around, upgraded her factory, and refreshed the level of the garbage recycling station.
Dozens of sweeping robots came out.
Hua Mi placed all these sweeping robots in the west of Xiangcheng.
These sweeping robots will enter the zombie wave, automatically clean up the corpses of zombies, and collect crystal cores.
Those crystal nuclei will be put into Hua Mi's warehouse by robots.
and will not be used directly.
As Hua Mi said, Cao Feng was trapped by the zombies to the west. He led the team to kill them and the killing lasted until night.
By midnight, the zombies coming from the west not only showed no tendency to decrease, but were killing more and more.
One layer of the power grid was destroyed, but the contractor directed the workers to repair ten more power grids behind the last one.
The factory director also sent truckloads of jelly lime mixed with [Energy Water Drops] to the west.
The generator made a clanging sound. In Xiangcheng, electricity is sufficient.
Hua Mi returned to the rescue center. As soon as she lay down, she heard movement outside the door.
Tu Lijia, the little nurse who was specially responsible for taking care of Hua Mi, thought she was here for a ward round.
She stood up and opened the door.
Hua Mi called Tu Lijia, "Wait a moment."
As soon as he finished speaking, the door of the ward was kicked open.
The man outside the door held two guns in his hands and fired several shots into the door.
Just as the people outside the door were shooting, Hua Mi had already arrived at Tu Lijia's side and dodged the bullets all over Tu Lijia's body.
The killer outside the door put down his gun and looked at the empty bed. He was just about to find Hua Miren.
The door in front of him was slammed shut.
Hua Miren didn't know when he stood behind the killer.
She patted the killer on the shoulder with her big belly. The killer turned around and saw a bright light flashing in front of his eyes. Hua Mi held a knife and cut the killer's throat with one knife.
Her movements were crisp and neat, not like a pregnant woman who was about to give birth.
The closed door of the ward was opened, and Tu Lijia stood in the ward with a confused look on her face and asked:
"Ami, what happened?"
Before he finished speaking, a bloody gap appeared on the neck of the killer who was still standing in front of him.
Hot blood surged out from the gap and landed on Tulijia's face.
Tu Lijia's eyes widened and she fell back.
Hua Mi pushed away the killer who was still standing in front of him, reached out and held Tulijia's hand to prevent Tulijia from breaking the back of her head.
At this time, Xin Qiuru came over with a group of nurses.
When she saw the scene was in a mess, she asked nervously,
"Ami, Ami, are you okay?"
Hua Mi waved her hands to indicate that she was fine.
This morning, she deliberately spread the news that in the Xiangcheng base, [Energy Water Drops] had fallen into a crisis of shortage.
Everyone knows that there are not as many [Energy Water Drops] in Xiangcheng as before.
Then those who transport [Energy Water Droplets] from the Xiangcheng base naturally have to consider whether to meet the needs of E City first or their own needs first.
If you want to replenish the [Energy Water Drops] in the Xiangcheng base, you must kill Hua Mi first.
If Hua Mi is not killed, the [Energy Water Drop] will be stuck.
Anyway, no matter what the reason is, Hua Mi will die.
Xin Qiuru's face was full of worry. She looked at Hua Mi's big belly and asked,
"Do you want me to move to another ward?"
She couldn't understand why Hua Mi would say such things to the public?
This means that Hua Mi regards himself as a living target. Anyone who lurks in Xiangcheng and wants to obtain [Energy Drops] will want to kill Hua Mi.
In order to make the production of [Energy Water Drops] no longer subject to constraints.
After all, before Hua Mi is produced, [Energy Water Drops] will no longer be produced in large quantities.
That proves that Hua Mi can decide whether [Energy Water Drops] can be mass-produced.
She was stuck in labor and it was natural for others to want to kill her.
Hua Mi touched her big belly and explained,
"I just want to kill all the killers lurking in Xiangcheng before I die."
"Who knows if those ghosts and monsters will come to trouble me at the stall where I give birth?"
"Now, of course, we can kill as many as we can."
Seeing that Hua Mi was about to give birth, she had to kill all Chen Hu's people while she still had some strength.
Looking at the ambitious Hua Mi, Xin Qiuru had no choice. If it were an ordinary pregnant woman, she would have been frightened knowing that someone was going to kill her.
How could anyone like Hua Mi take the initiative to spread the word and use herself as a living target to attract killers to kill her?
Xin Qiuru sighed deeply and looked at Hua Mi with worry.
"Then what should I do now? You are about to give birth. Tell me, how should I protect you?"
Hua Mi waved her hand with great courage,
"I don't need your protection. I can survive and kill killers who have evil intentions at the same time."
She has the ability and the confidence.
But Xin Qiuru looked at Hua Mi with worry, was this the question she was talking about? She wasn't worried about her own safety.
Where can a woman give birth to a child and engage in a gunfight at the same time? Throughout all this time, Xin Qiuru has only seen a pregnant woman like Hua Mi operating in this way.
In sharp contrast to the tense situation in Xiangcheng, E City is obviously much more relaxed.
But this is only the relaxation of the external environment, not the relaxation of the internal survivors.
On the contrary, the survivors inside E City are now living in dire straits.
On the construction site of City E, there was a shirtless and skinny survivor squatting on the ground, asking other survivors,
"Didn't you send a signal to Xiangcheng Base a long time ago? Didn't Xiangcheng Base receive our signal? Why haven't people come to rescue us yet?"
There are currently two to three thousand people here, and there is always one person who has a charged mobile phone.
There can't be two or three thousand people, and everyone's mobile phones are out of battery.
The abuse of survivors in E City is no secret.
During this time, more than once, someone sent a message to Xiangcheng, saying how the current situation in E City was and how difficult it was to survive.
So, when can they wait for rescue from Xiangcheng?
The weather suddenly became very hot
