While Zhao Xuan was busy reorganizing the army, Yang Xingang, who was in charge of all logistics management, was also busy.
He continued to meet with professionals in house construction, pipeline design and construction, etc. recruited from survivors.
Mercenary tasks such as house construction and pipeline excavation are also constantly posted on the task bar of the City Lord's Mansion in the hotel square.
The total number of mercenaries in Yunling City is close to 50,000, and there are more than 200 registered mercenary groups. Although many mercenary groups have received initial support from the city lord's palace, they still dare not accept dangerous tasks that require going out.
At this time, house construction and pipeline excavation tasks became their favorite tasks.
The house construction and pipeline excavation tasks issued by the City Lord's Palace at this time have no quality requirements at all. As long as the houses do not collapse and the pipelines are generally smooth, it will be fine.
The houses are definitely used to house people, and the pipes are used to discharge domestic wastewater into the sea.
At the same time, the city lord's palace also designated more than two hundred mercenary groups in the inner city to set up residences, allowing them to carry out construction on their own. The city lord's palace stipulated that they only had the right to use the residence for the time being, but did not have ownership of the residence. After the initial construction of Yunling City is completed, the ownership of the residence will be arranged for them.
Fifty thousand mercenaries immediately became busy. At least 20,000 mercenaries began to build houses and excavate pipelines under the professional talents of the city lord's palace. There are about 10,000 mercenaries building their own team's houses in their respective stations. Another 20,000 mercenaries poured out of Yunling City, knocking down nearby pre-apocalyptic buildings and carrying bricks, tiles, construction steel bars, etc. back to Yunling City with simple tools or directly on their backs to hand in tasks.
After Zhao Xuan completed the reorganization of the army, what he saw was such a steaming and vigorous construction scene.
"Lao Yang, you did a good job. Thank you for your hard work." Zhao Xuan praised Yang Xingang with satisfaction.
"It's not hard work. City Lord, stimulated by the rewards of food, crystal cores, weapons, vehicles and other missions, these mercenaries have burst out with great enthusiasm for work. This is certainly a good thing, but our consumption is also huge. I I'm a little worried..." Yang Xingang said carefully without any intention of taking credit.
"Don't worry. Our army has been established. What does the army do? The army is used to expand territory and get back important supplies. Lao Yang, you must hurry up and build several large warehouses. It will take less than three days. , our supplies will pile up like a mountain. Don’t run out of room to store them then." Zhao Xuan said with confidence.
"That's good. Don't worry, City Lord, nothing will happen to you." Yang Xingang immediately turned from worry to joy.
"That's okay. You continue to work, I will lead the new army to go on an expedition."
After Zhao Xuan finished speaking, he turned around and left.
It was getting late now, and it would get dark in more than three hours. Zhao Xuan was unwilling to waste time and planned to use this time to lead the new army to capture a large food factory not far from the old Oudi Factory.
Today he was going to get all the available supplies there to replenish the rapidly depleting inventory.
The eight armies of Yunling City immediately marched out from the southwest.
This time they took a new route, preparing to go straight to the 'Zhengxing' food factory fifteen kilometers away.
A smart and bold mercenary team immediately and courageously lined up behind the army.
These mercenary teams all know that although the places carefully swept by Yunling City's regular combat forces are very safe, there are very few high-value supplies. Only when the goals of this kind of formal force are clear, they will be less interested in the supplies in high-rise buildings on the roadside.
Following them at this time, although it is necessary to clean up the remaining zombies in the high-rise buildings on the roadside, which is risky, the benefits are also great.
After the large team moved straight forward in this direction for two or three kilometers, zombies began to appear in the field of vision.
"All army commanders and deputy commanders obey the order and deploy on the spot. The distance between each army is 30 meters to 50 meters. The deployment of each army should not exceed 500 meters. Advance in a straight line. All leading cadres must pay attention to the command and minimize casualties." Zhao Xuan roughly judged the situation and immediately issued an order.
The eight armies immediately expanded one after another, and the deployment was completed 10 minutes later.
"Advance!" Zhao Xuan raised his right hand and pressed it hard.
Twenty thousand soldiers immediately took action.
"Doudou?" Seeing that all the armies had started fighting, Zhao Xuan looked at Doudou, who was riding a black cloud beside him.
"Brother, over there." Doudou pointed not far to the left.
There is a tall building there, and there are zombies with supernatural powers somewhere inside the tall building.
"Set off."
Zhao Xuan immediately flew over quickly.
Heiyun carried Doudou on his back and hurriedly followed.
"I've paid attention to them all. Pay attention to your own safety and protection, and don't be greedy for credit. Each team must protect each other, and the team leader must keep his eyes open."
Zhang Xiaocai glanced at the backs of Zhao Xuan and Doudou with envy, then turned back and focused on commanding the team.
As the commander of Yunling City's First Army, Zhang Xiaocai commanded 2,500 people.
In terms of management, Zhang Xiaocai divided the army into more than 120 squads. There are twenty-one or two people in a team. More than 120 veteran team members with rich combat experience have become squad leaders.
On a 500-meter-wide front, each team is responsible for a front of about 8 meters, and behind each team is a team responsible for supporting and collecting crystal cores.
After the front team fights for a certain period of time, the team behind will immediately attack, allowing the team in front to step back to provide support and take the opportunity to recover their physical strength.
It is worth mentioning that as soon as the big team was organized, Zhao Xuan spent a little time to let all the combatants quickly absorb the basic training techniques and simple combat skills, and let all the newcomers get an ordinary crystal core.
After issuing nearly 20,000 ordinary crystal cores, the stock of ordinary crystal cores in Zhao Xuan's hand was about to reach zero.
But Zhao Xuan is not in a hurry. If nothing unexpected happens, after this afternoon's sweep, more crystal nuclei will return to his hands.
Zhao Xuan's prediction was not wrong.
The eight new armies he had just formed only had some bumps and bruises at the beginning, and even suffered a few casualties. But as time went by, the recruits gradually overcame their fear of zombies and were able to slowly demonstrate the power of simple combat skills. Then they became more and more efficient in killing zombies, and their advancement speed became faster and faster.
The New Army's casualties were decreasing and were finally almost zero. But there are more and more ordinary crystal nuclei gathered in the hands of the eight army commanders.
Zhao Xuan walked back and forth in front of the five-kilometer-wide front for more than an hour, reaching the outer wall of the 'Zhengxing' food factory, and then returned to the large army, which was almost 10 kilometers away from him.
Looking at the time, it was already past 5 pm.
There is not enough time left.
