Zhao Xuan knows that because the apocalypse has not yet come for too long, there is still too much social wealth before the apocalypse that is in an ownerless state, waiting for someone to collect it.
Therefore, conflicts among the major forces will not occur easily unless necessary. Everyone is busy building their own basic base.
When the basic construction of each force is perfected, the previous social wealth is divided up, and the doomsday society enters a new stage of production and internal circulation, many contradictions will gradually break out.
At that time, there will continue to be disputes between various forces, and even wars will break out.
The harmonious scene where the five major civil forces sit together amicably to discuss acquiring social wealth will no longer exist.
After a while, everyone came up with a preliminary result. After returning here, each force will send a certain number of scouts to the Longcheng Gang to continue to conduct detailed reconnaissance of the Southeast Petrochemical Plant.
If no unexpected situation occurs, the five major forces will jointly launch a battle for the petrochemical plant in 10 days.
Starting at four o'clock in the afternoon, heavy transport trucks began to return for the second trip.
Due to the long distance from Yunling City, it was already five o'clock in the afternoon when the heavy transport truck returned.
There are still about 1,200 tons of grain belonging to Yunling City. Originally, the problem could be solved by returning forty heavy trucks. But all the hundreds of heavy trucks in Yunling City returned.
The extra heavy trucks will help several other private forces transport the remaining grain according to the agreement just reached.
Of course, Yunling City does not help in vain, but charges 10% of the food delivered. This ten percent of food can be paid for with energy crystal cores. One crystal core is worth forty pounds of grain.
In Yunling City, one crystal core is worth fifty pounds of grain, but this discount cannot be given to others.
As for the other four major forces, they only care about food for the time being and don't care much about energy crystal nuclei. They happily paid a certain amount of energy crystal cores as the freight for Yunling City.
At six o'clock in the afternoon, the military's transport convoy was still busy, but the civilian forces began to leave with the last batch of vehicles.
"Thank you for your help. The military will remember your friendship." Qin Kedi stood at the gate of the grain depot to bid farewell to the civilian forces.
"Easy to say, easy to say. I hope we can cooperate next time." Yan Chengfeng and others expressed their opinions one after another.
Although the cooperation between the five major civil forces and the military was not very pleasant or smooth this time, it finally ended successfully, and the outcome made both parties basically satisfied.
"Of course. I'm also looking forward to our next cooperation." Qin Kedi said sincerely.
Yan Chengfeng and others nodded with satisfaction, but Zhao Xuan secretly laughed in his heart.
If the sincerity of the military was really sufficient, they would not hide the secrets in the heart of the mountain from them.
However, after they discovered that the military alone was unable to deal with the extremely large mutant ant colony in the mountains, they would have no choice but to look back at the five major civilian forces.
After all, the only advantage of the military lies in the number of people, and the key to conquering the ant colony in the belly of the mountain is not the number of people, but the strong enough combat power.
"If nothing else happens, there will be another cooperation tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. I just don't know what the reward for the next cooperation will be? I don't know what Qin Kedi's face will be like when we get together next time?" Zhao Xuan felt a little confused. Be curious.
Zhao Xuan's curiosity was quickly confirmed.
As expected, Qin Kedi sent liaison personnel to the five major civil forces again on the afternoon of the next day and invited them to the Hongyuan Grain Depot's 'Meeting Alliance'.
The leaders of the five major forces were angry, funny and curious and agreed to the request for an 'alliance', and met at the gate of the Hongyuan Grain Depot at nine o'clock in the morning on the third day.
"Everyone, I didn't expect us to meet again so soon." Yan Chengfeng deliberately greeted the others loudly.
"Yes, this is all thanks to the military." Sikong Zhen also said deliberately.
"Well, I have to thank Commander Qin." Qiu Yun also said in a high voice.
Everyone was secretly mocking the military for being unkind. They wanted to eat alone, but after trying it, they found that they couldn't eat it, so they called back those who had been sent away earlier.
This person is really thick-skinned.
However, Qin Ke seemed to be unaware of the sarcasm in his hostile words, and he still greeted everyone as usual, as if nothing happened before.
There is a saying that goes well, no matter what you do, as long as you don't feel embarrassed, others will be embarrassed.
Qin Kedi's behavior clearly explains this sentence. The more he acted as if nothing had happened, the more speechless Yan Chengfeng and others became. In the end, they consciously stopped thinking about what happened two days ago and turned their attention to the situation in front of them.
"Captain Qin, the people you sent yesterday didn't explain clearly enough. Can you tell us what the situation is?" Yan Chengfeng said seriously.
"Everyone, now that the matter has come to this, I will no longer hide it. In fact, before the end of the world, the country not only built a Hongyuan grain depot here. The Hongyuan grain depot was only a superficial project, and a huge strategic structure was secretly built in the heart of Hongyuan Mountain. Material reserve." Qin Kedi said slowly.
When things developed to this extent, Qin Kedi knew that even if he didn't tell them, the five major forces would be able to guess something. And if he doesn't speak carefully, the five major forces may not be able to perfectly cooperate with the military in their next actions, and may even hinder the military. In this way, the military would gain more than it loses, so it would be better not to invite them.
"A giant strategic material reserve!" Yan Chengfeng and others were moved in their hearts and looked at each other several times with bright eyes.
"Are there any reserves of guns and ammunition inside?" Zhao Xuan asked immediately following Qin Kedi's words.
Yunling City is now on the right track in most aspects, but before Kuang Huayun's crystal nuclear weapons are successfully developed and popularized to a certain extent, what Yunling City most urgently needs and lacks are guns, ammunition and various cannons and small cannons.
These things are not primarily used for offense. Instead, it should be used for the defense of Yunling City.
After all, if thermal weapons do not reach a certain intensity and density of firepower, they will not have enough lethality against large groups of corpses.
The main thing Yunling City needs to defend is not humans, but zombies and other mutated creatures.
Zhao Xuan remembered that the original "Seven Mutated Kings" of Yunhai City became the current "Six Mutated Kings" because he killed a peerless rat king in advance. Five more of these six kings will make waves in the near future and madly attack the human survival bases around Yunhai City.
The reason why only the Five Kings are in rebellion is because Zombie Xiaojie, one of the zombie kings, retains human consciousness and will not take the initiative to invade humans.
To defend against the possible attack by these five kings on Yunling City, before the emergence of crystal nuclear weapons, thermal weapons, guns and ammunition played an irreplaceable role.
Zhao Xuan knew that the Five Kings would soon rebel, but he didn't know when Kuang Huayun would be able to successfully research crystal nuclear weapons.
As a result, he became filled with a strong desire for guns and weapons.
