"Dong~~!" "Dong~~!" "Dong~~!"
On the side of the road, a conscript held a wrench and struck hard on a piece of iron sheet. The sound was so loud that it startled dozens of birds in the forest.
Next to him, Zhao Yu was sitting under a tree and resting, with five mobilization soldiers holding knives standing beside him.
After a while, a mobilization soldier stepped forward and said: "Report, three alien species were found!"
Zhao Yu then stood up and turned to look at the other end of the road. Sure enough, three alien species that had heard the sound were sprinting towards him.
A smile appeared on Zhao Yu's lips, he waved his hand and said, "Take it!"
After speaking, the mobilization soldiers who were beating the gong stopped, and together with the other five people, they rushed towards the three alien species.
They worked in pairs, one holding an iron shield and standing in front to block the alien's spikes, while the other held a sharp knife and wiped it at the alien while it was entangled by his teammates.
In just five seconds, three alien species that took advantage of the opportunity were lying on the ground with their heads dislocated.
Without Zhao Yu's greeting, the six mobilization soldiers very skillfully dragged up the alien body and walked towards the direction of the base.
Zhao Yu followed and walked about two hundred meters before returning to the base.
As the three alien corpses were sent to the recycling furnace, the resource reserve increased again.
[Gold: 173 grams]
[Silver: 281 grams]
[Copper: 122 grams]
[Cloth: 8124g]
[Flesh and blood: 992 kilograms]
Three hours have passed since we went out hunting.
At the beginning, Zhao Yu led six mobilization soldiers to hunt near the county seat.
Later, after killing the alien species, I found that I still had to work hard to transport them back.
Without transportation, he could only ask his men to move it manually, which was not only laborious but also time-consuming.
Therefore, Zhao Yu thought of a way to make noise not far from the base to attract the alien species to come over on their own initiative, which would save most of the effort.
Several waves followed the same pattern, killing not only 20 but also 18 alien species.
The flesh and blood reserve is enough to produce a dozen conscripts, but it is limited by copper, so no new conscripts have been trained yet.
"copper……"
"And food!"
Zhao Yu glanced at his men. Among them, Conscript No. 002 was already in a state of exhaustion, and his three attributes had temporarily dropped a bit.
Seeing this, he said directly: "Everyone is welcome, replenish water and rest for half an hour!"
Immediately, the six people dispersed and went to the base to drink water according to their needs.
Looking at their backs in military uniforms, Zhao Yu looked at his own tattered clothes.
"I should find something to wear..."
"etc……"
He suddenly thought, since the training camp can get a set of standard uniforms for the conscripts, why can't they get a set for him too? !
With this in mind, Zhao Yu walked into the training camp and tried to control it.
As a result, I actually found an exchange option.
A set of tailor-made clothes only requires 1 kilogram of cloth.
"really……"
Zhao Yu smiled knowingly and thought, since this micro base is a castrated version of the moon base, it can produce clothes for the mobilized soldiers, which means that the training camp has a built-in production line for clothes.
"Get me a set!"
[Please select the military rank of this uniform]
On the control panel, multiple styles of military uniforms appeared, all in the same series as the conscripts.
The military uniforms worn by the conscripts are based on the system of this world, which is more pragmatic and basically has no empty duties. The military rank is linked to the position, and the military rank is directly based on the number of troops led.
Commander of the corps, commander of the chief, centurion, commander of the capital, commander of thousands, partial general, commander of ten thousand, general, etc.
"Just Centurion!"
Zhao Yu originally wanted to get a set of general's clothes, but after thinking about it, the people under his command were all big soldiers, not even those with the rank of corps commander. It would be too boring to do so.
Just in time, he remembered that both sleeves of conscript No. 002 had been used to bandage the wound, and he was still shirtless, so he got another set of corps commander's uniform and gave it to No. 002 to put on.
"This is what it looks like!"
Standing in front of the mirror and looking at himself in military uniform, Zhao Yu felt very satisfied and felt that he looked more handsome.
Then, Zhao Yu took another look at the resource data. Gold, silver, and flesh and blood were basically enough to train a dozen conscripts. Only copper and cloth were not enough.
The copper shortage is about seven or eight kilograms, and the cloth shortage is about the same.
But the biggest headache for Zhao Yu was not the resources to train the mobilization soldiers, but the food.
You can always find training resources by looking for them in the county town, but food is hard to find.
In this era, only large forces have the capital to produce food. Other small forces basically obtain food by searching old-era cities or exchanging other items with large forces.
In the past, when Zhao Yu went to the gathering place to exchange for food, he always relied on meat in exchange for some technological products that he had previously stored.
As far as he knew, the food at the gathering place was basically sourced from the county.
Regarding the exchange of food with big forces, I met Meng Xian and others later, and learned from them that Black Rock City has the ability to produce its own food.
Zhao Yu's first thought was to exchange food with Black Rock City, but the problem was that he didn't know where Black Rock City was.
After the end of the world, the old cities are basically occupied by mutant beasts, and all new cities are basically newly built. Only those who have been there know where they are.
"In an era without the Internet, information circulation became the key..."
Zhao Yu scratched his head. Trading with big forces in exchange for food would not be possible in a short period of time. Now, he could only continue to search the county to see if there was any food that had not expired.
"Silver, copper and grain, these are the most important supplies right now!"
"We must get these before the six mobilization soldiers are exhausted..."
Zhao Yu made a brief plan and felt a little hungry, so he got up and went out.
After taking a look at the conditions of the six conscripts, I saw that the (hungry) state had not appeared on each of their heads, and the (fatigue) state of conscript No. 002 had also disappeared.
Seeing this, he said: "Everyone is here, bring weapons and prepare to go!"
Immediately, the six mobilization soldiers who were resting on the spot quickly stood up, packed their equipment, and came to Zhao Yu.
"Walk!"
With six people in tow, Zhao Yu set off again, heading towards the county seat.
"You two, take a step first and go to the front to investigate the situation!" Zhao Yu casually ordered two mobilization soldiers and sent them ahead so that he would have a buffer in case of any emergencies.
After walking for about ten minutes, he didn't see a single alien species, which was normal. Most of the alien species wandering on this road were attracted to him and dealt with near the base.
Zhao Yu even thought about attracting some alien species to this road when he left the county, so that he could continue to beat gongs to attract monsters in the future.
"Report, discovered human group!"
While I was thinking wildly, a soldier suddenly ran back to report.
Zhao Yu quickly asked about the situation.
"At the fork in the road ahead, there are 11 human beings holding guns standing, arguing about something at the moment..."
Zhao Yu's expression became serious and he quickly asked: "Where is No. 005?"
"He's watching over there in the woods!"
"They didn't discover it, did they?!"
"No!"
Zhao Yu then breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Let's go, take me there, and be gentle!"
Another group of people appeared near the county seat. Zhao Yu felt a little nervous, not knowing which force they belonged to this time.
Soon, he followed the conscripts into the woods. After walking around for a while, he saw Conscript No. 005 climbing on the tree.
"You guys stay on guard here, I'll go up and take a look!"
After Zhao Yu put several people on guard, he skillfully climbed up the tree.
"Sir, there!"
After reaching a certain height, Conscript No. 005 came closer and pointed to where the crowd gathered.
Zhao Yu looked in the direction of his finger. Sure enough, at the three-way intersection, a dozen men and women, each holding a weapon, stood there and seemed to be discussing something.
Zhao Yu pricked up his ears and listened, vaguely hearing words such as "I don't want to go back", "What to eat" and "How to survive".
Squinting his eyes and seeing the clothes they were wearing, Zhao Yu seemed to understand where they came from.
"Is it the person from the shelter?!"
Zhao Yu frowned, "Why did they come out?!"
Recalling what the man and woman said before, he wondered: "Are they out to find people who know maintenance skills again?!"
Just as he was thinking this, he suddenly noticed two familiar figures in the crowd, who seemed to be the two people he traded with last time.
"What a coincidence!"
Zhao Yu hesitated for a moment, then got off the tree directly, planning to go over and take a look.
If he met another group of people with guns, he would never dare to go there, and he might be killed and eaten.
But this group of people came out of the shelter and have not been influenced by the apocalyptic environment. They still have some lawful elements in them that only people in peaceful times have.
After getting off the tree, Zhao Yu walked directly over there with six mobilization soldiers.
"one two three four!"
Waves of slogans rang out from the woods, and the crowd on the roadside was a little surprised.
"Soldier?!"
"what's the situation?!"
Just as they were wondering, seven men in military uniforms walked out of the woods.
"What a soldier..."
"what to do?!"
Everyone was talking and hesitating. There were obviously more people, and each of them was holding a gun, but they were startled by the appearance of Zhao Yu and others, and took a few steps back unconsciously.
"stand at attention!"
Zhao Yu also participated in military training when he was at Blue Star, and he still knew some basic passwords.
Following his order, the six mobilization soldiers stood in unison.
This single action was so powerful that the crowd immediately took a step back in fright.
"Who are you?!"
A man at the head of the team couldn't help but ask.
Although they had guns, they had basically never fired them. Even before entering the shelter, they were all helpless people.
It’s normal to be subconsciously afraid when you see someone in military uniform.
Zhao Yu walked out expressionlessly and asked, "Where are you from?!"
"It's you?!"
At this time, the man and woman in the crowd recognized Zhao Yu and stood up in surprise.
"Is it you?!"
Zhao Yu pretended not to know, looked at them in surprise, and asked, "Didn't you go back to the shelter?!"
Then he suddenly realized, "I asked why I haven't seen you before. I thought I had wandered over from somewhere. It turns out that you are all from the underground shelter?!"
Everyone heard that someone in their team knew each other and quickly asked about the situation.
The man and woman quickly explained: "It's the good man we met last time when we came out, the man who helped us lure away the alien species..."
"It's him!"
Everyone suddenly seemed to have heard the rumors about Zhao Yu.
This is normal. They have been underground for almost two years and are extremely curious about everything on the surface. The man and woman who came out recently are the only ones who have gone back. Naturally, their experiences are spreading wildly in the shelter.
"you're a soldier?!"
The woman stood up and asked first. Then she thought of something and said, "By the way, my name is Liu Yuan, and he is Wang Shuai. I asked you what your name was last time..."
"Zhao Yu!"
Zhao Yu nodded and didn't explain anything.
"If you are a soldier, do you know that countries around the world are still at war?!"
"What about the nuclear radiation?!"
"What's going on with those alien species?!"
Everyone started asking questions.
After Zhao Yu simply replied a few words, he said: "If you don't stay underground, what are you doing here on the ground?!"
Hearing this, the crowd seemed to have some idea, and suddenly called Liu Yuan aside. After muttering a few words, Liu Yuan came over and said:
"As I told you last time, two generators in our shelter broke down and affected a vegetable shed area, so the manager sent us out to find some parts from a nearby photovoltaic power plant..."
"I see!"
Zhao Yu nodded. He was not surprised that this underground shelter had a vegetable shed. After all, in the early stages of construction, everyone had the mentality that the war would not end in a short time.
Naturally, one must consider the possibility of living underground forever in extreme cases.
Liu Yuan looked at the six soldiers standing upright and motionless, hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Brother Zhao, we are far away from the photovoltaic power plant, and we don't know much about those monsters. I wonder if you are willing." Are you willing to help?!”
"help?!"
Zhao Yu touched his chin and said, "I can't make the decision!"
He patted the military rank on his shoulder and said: "I am just a centurion, the troops are not under my control!"
force? !
Everyone was shocked. Hearing what Zhao Yu meant, were there other soldiers behind him? !
But then, everyone felt a little happy. With the help of these soldiers, they might be able to find the equipment for power generation safely.
"Brother Zhao, can you take us to see the leader?!" Liu Yuan pretended to be pitiful and begged.
"This won't work!"
Zhao Yu shook his head and said: "The location of the camp is kept secret. I can't bring outsiders there..."
Liu Yuan was immediately disappointed.
Zhao Yu said again: "However, it is not impossible to help..."
Everyone was overjoyed.
"We are short of food in the camp. If you can trade a batch of food with us..."
"This is negotiable, we have food in the shelter!"
"That's right!"
"Let's go back now and tell the administrator..."
Seeing that everyone was about to go back in a noisy manner, Zhao Yu quickly stopped them.
"We have a mission this time. Let's do this. I'll come to the shelter to find you in three hours. How about that?!"
After hearing this, everyone was stunned for a moment, but they agreed without thinking too much.
After the group left, Zhao Yu continued to lead his men towards the county seat.
Three hours later, it happens to be the time for the daily tasks to be refreshed, and you might be able to do a task by then.
Of course, we also have to see if their shelter manager will agree to the deal.
In Zhao Yu's opinion, there is a high possibility that they will agree.
After another twenty minutes, Zhao Yu finally walked to the county town. Looking around, the streets were full of alien species. The twenty or so alien species he killed were just a drizzle in the county town, so he easily replenished them. .
"No. 3, go make some noise and pull these alien species away. Wait for us at the three-way intersection in half an hour..."
"receive!"
Soon, Conscript No. 3 led a large group of aliens out of First Street.
Upon seeing this, Zhao Yu quickly rushed in with the others, "I want gold, silver, copper and cloth. Take as much as you can. Meet here in ten minutes..."
After giving simple instructions, Zhao Yudang rushed into a shop on the roadside and started searching.
Ten minutes passed quickly. When Zhao Yu arrived at the assembly point carrying a bag of supplies, five mobilization soldiers were already in place.
Compared with him, the five conscripts carried much more things. Behind each of them was a package rolled up in sheets.
Zhao Yu's face lit up with joy and he waved his hand: "Retreat!"
The journey back to the three-way intersection was uneventful. Conscript No. 003 had already arrived here, and there were no other aliens around.
"Well done!"
Zhao Yu handed the package on his back to mobilized soldier No. 003, and then led the people towards the base.
After returning to the base and throwing all the resources into the recycling furnace, Zhao Yu had a bright smile on his face.
[Gold: 798 grams]
[Silver: 3522 grams]
[Copper: 17235 grams]
[Iron: 32423 grams]
[Tin: 13122 grams]
[Cloth: 85693 grams]
[Flesh and blood: 992 kilograms]
This wave of outings can be called a bumper harvest. Except for the flesh and blood, several other resources have increased many times.
What surprised Zhao Yu even more was that there were originally only three items: gold, silver, and copper, but this time there were more iron and tin.
After taking a look at the training camp, the resources for training conscripts have not changed, they are still the same as before.
"So, iron and tin are resources needed to exchange for other buildings?!"
Zhao Yu didn't think much about this and directly made three mobilization soldiers.
Fifteen minutes later, the moment the three mobilized soldiers came out, Zhao Yu also received a notification sound from the system.
[The number of conscripts trained has reached 10, and the exchange option for land infantry is opened. 】
"We can train infantry soldiers!"
Zhao Yu's face was filled with joy, and he quickly clicked on the attributes of the Marine Infantry to check.
【Marine Infantry】
【Strength: 8】
[Agility: 8]
[Stamina: 9]
[Weight: 70kg]
[Height: 180 cm]
[Basic skills: firearms (proficient), fighting (proficient), grappling (proficient). 】
[Required for exchange: 2 technology points, 77 kilograms of flesh and blood, 1 kilogram of cloth, 20 grams of gold, 200 grams of silver, and 1000 grams of copper. 】
[Note: When the number of Marine Infantry training reaches 10, the special forces exchange option will be opened. 】
From a numerical perspective alone, land infantry is stronger than conscripts, but the exchange price is also doubled.
Zhao Yu hesitated for a moment and chose to redeem one first to see the situation.
The training time is the same, also 5 minutes.
Zhao Yu took a look and saw that there were currently 9 conscripts, one less than enough to form two teams of corps commanders, so he simply exchanged for another conscript.
For the next resources, he wanted to wait until the land infantry was trained and see the actual situation.
five minutes later.
[Marine Infantry No. 001 is here to report! 】
A sturdy, dark-skinned soldier walked out of the training camp.
If the previous mobilization soldiers gave Zhao Yu the impression that they were ordered and well-trained, then the marine infantry gave Zhao Yu the impression of being fierce and capable of fighting.
Especially the facial contour, there is no fat at all, the skin is extremely tight, and the muscles all over the body are also very strong.
"Two people come out and fight with him!"
Under Zhao Yu's order, two mobilization soldiers stood up and started a bare-handed fight with Marine Infantry No. 001.
The two sides only fought for about ten seconds before one conscript was knocked down, followed closely by the second.
"So strong?!"
Zhao Yu was a little surprised. There was not much difference in attributes between the two sides. The strength and agility of the conscripts was 5, and the strength and agility of the marine infantry was 8. It didn't seem to be twice as much. In the end, two conscripts couldn't beat one land infantry. .
"Come on, let's try it!"
Zhao Yu became interested. He had tried to fight against the mobilization soldiers before and won easily.
"Plop~!"
The Marine infantry made a feint attack and deceived Zhao Yu. Then he threw him over his shoulder and Zhao Yu lay straight on the ground.
"Wori!"
Zhao Yu shouted stop and got up, feeling a little confused.
He fought with the conscripts, but he was able to win easily. The two conscripts and the infantry also took about ten seconds to defeat them.
How could he be killed instantly by hitting him? !
Thinking like this, Zhao Yu looked at the conscript No. 002 who had fought with him before and looked at him with something strange.
Couldn’t this damn robot have let loose before? !
But then he shook his head again, thinking it was impossible. It must be that his speed and strength were too strong and he couldn't regain his strength after being feinted, so he was easily subdued.
"sharp!"
Zhao Yu praised him, but Marine Infantryman No. 001 was expressionless, without a trace of joy or sorrow.
Zhao Yu got used to it and began to think about what kind of soldiers to train next.
Judging from the attributes alone, the two conscripts add up to 10, 10, and 12, and the price is the same as a marine infantry, but the marine infantry only has 8, 8, and 9.
But in terms of actual combat power, the Marine infantry can defeat two.
This is just a bare-handed fight. If it were replaced by a firearm...
Zhao Yu hesitated for a moment, but finally decided to let this marine infantryman serve as the corps commander, and the mobilization troops would help them.
After all, when it comes to collecting supplies, the more people the better, and no matter how powerful he is, his load will not double.
With Zhao Yu's adaptation, four marine infantrymen were trained, each with the standard rank of corps commander.
In addition, he also increased the number of mobilization troops to 16.
Just enough to form a team of four corps commanders with four Marine infantrymen.
After some consumption, Zhao Yu’s remaining resources became:
[Technology points: 32]
[Gold: 618 grams]
[Silver: 1722 grams]
[Copper: 8235 grams]
[Iron: 32423 grams]
[Tin: 13122 grams]
[Cloth: 81693 grams]
[Flesh: 18kg]
If he didn't run out of flesh and blood, he could train some more soldiers.
But now, 20 soldiers are enough!
Looking at the four rows of teams in front of him, Zhao Yu suddenly felt satisfied.
These are all his soldiers!
Except for the lack of weapons, it looks pretty good in every aspect!
"Count!"
"One, two, three, four, five!"
"There should be five people in the team, but there are actually five people. The report is complete, please give instructions!"
"Second team..."
"Team Three..."
"Team Four..."
After getting addicted to being a leader, Zhao Yu let all four teams rest.
They couldn't do it without rest, and the six conscripts who were exchanged first were exhausted again.
This shows that without food supplements, they will become exhausted easily.
It is estimated that if I come here a few more times, I will be hungry.
After the soldiers under his command rested for a while, Zhao Yu estimated that they were almost done. Then he gathered everyone together and set off towards the shelter.
