Nothing happened all night.
On a sunny morning, Li Yu got up early and started exercising at the base without hesitation.
After exercising, we still start breakfast.
The new workers who came in also knew Li Yu's parents before. When they built the base wall, in addition to their wages, they also had food included.
Now, they all live within the wall, but their mood at this time is completely different from before.
Every time it's time to eat, it's the busiest time in the base.
Porridge, some steamed buns, and some pickles are today's breakfast.
Of course, those who are younger and still growing will be given an egg.
After breakfast, Li Yu led the people in the base to open the gate and then the trees in front of the road. Trees will block the zombies ahead, so cut some down.
Not many trees were cut down, only about ten meters away. The trees themselves are nearly 30 meters away from the base wall.
The urn city built this time can be imagined like this:
The base wall is a large circle surrounding the plain and two mountains. The wall of Wengcheng is a small circle outside the big circle. The big circle and the small circle are connected.
While Li Yu and others were cutting down trees outside, there were always people on the watchtower looking around.
Li Hongyuan had a background in engineering before, so building a fence couldn't be easier for him. According to Li Hongyuan's idea, the Wengcheng was built outside the current gate. This would occupy less land in the base, and could also expand the land in the base. After increasing and decreasing, there was a lot of space.
The newly constructed fence is bounded by the gate, creating a semicircle with a radius of 20 meters. This time, the wall built was more than 3 meters wide.
Seeing that the trees have almost been cut down, many things from the time the wall was built are still left in the base. Including mixers, there is also a Ruijiang tanker, which can directly mix the cement with a machine instead of manually mixing it.
When the time comes, just lay the foundation, tie up the steel cage, and cast it directly on site, which is very fast.
There are still some steel bars in the base, but the base alone is definitely not enough, so Li Yu and Li Tie took the time to take the part-time workers to the outskirts of the county and carried some steel bars back.
When transporting steel bars, it went very smoothly. I didn't meet anyone, and there were relatively few zombies. It seemed that there were suddenly fewer zombies, as if it was the prelude to a storm.
Li Yu was very keen to see this difference. Not only was he not happy, but he was also a little worried. This was very similar to a situation he had faced many times before. This made Li Yu feel that something was not right in his heart.
The only thing that made Li Yu somewhat gratified was that after these few days of contact, these workers performed very well. This made Li Yu very satisfied, but he did not take it lightly. Instead, he increased his attention and observed these people.
The foundation for the base wall was also built within the past few days. During this period, some zombies occasionally appeared outside the wall, and then fewer and fewer zombies appeared later.
This scene gave Li Yu a feeling of déjà vu. Before rebirth, many small groups would be swept away by the zombie wave.
Often before a zombie wave arrives, the surrounding zombies will gradually become fewer and fewer as they begin to gather. Once a zombie wave forms, it will be like locusts passing through. If there is no strong wall resistance, the zombies will inevitably break through.
With this sense of anxiety, Li Yu went to his father to ask about the construction time. After the foundation was completed, the on-site pouring would be quick, but it would also take some time.
Li Hongyuan saw Li Yu's anxiety, so he asked: "Aren't there fewer and fewer zombies now? Why are you still in such a hurry?"
Li Yu thought for a while and finally said: "I feel something is not right. You remember that when the zombie wave came last time, the zombies suddenly decreased a lot. This time, I feel there will be a bigger zombie wave. We must build the urn city before the zombie wave comes, otherwise it will be very difficult for us later!"
When Li Hongyuan heard this, he suddenly became anxious when he remembered the last time the base was besieged by a zombie wave. So he said: "Now that the foundation has been laid, we can just cast in-situ and build the wall. Let's mobilize all our manpower and do it all. It will take at least five days. In addition, if the wall is completely dry, it will take at least two or three days." .”
When Li Yu heard this, he was a little nervous and didn't have enough time. According to his experience, after the number of zombies in the surrounding area gradually decreases, it can take anywhere from 7 days to 3 days before the zombie wave arrives.
This time is a bit tight, but there is no way, we must speed up the construction of the urn city.
So he said: "Let's do it as soon as possible!".
Then I found my uncle and others and chatted with them about the situation. After my uncle and others heard this, they couldn't sit still for a moment.
The decisions Li Yu led them to make in the past all verified that Li Yu was correct. Once, twice, three times, after many things, everyone believed in Li Yu's judgment. In addition, the zombies have indeed become less and less recently, and everyone has seen this situation. So, no one raised any objection.
After all, the sooner the Wengcheng is built, the sooner everyone can rest assured.
After everyone discussed it, they decided to catch up on the work at night. At the very beginning, Li Yu bought a lot of super high-beam lights. Under the illumination of 6 high-beam lights, the surrounding wall was as bright as day.
But during the construction at night, except for the wall, it was pitch black outside, which made it very intrusive.
The night is very dark.
But the sound of mixers kept ringing around the base.
Strangely enough, zombies are most active at night and are most sensitive to sounds. But even in this case, not a single zombie was seen tonight.
This made many people feel more relaxed and start to concentrate on building the wall.
In the night, the wall was built bit by bit, from one meter to two meters...
Behind the woods, there were two zombies who were not together with most of the zombies, either because they were alone or for some other reason. Instead, they were wandering alone on the edge of the national highway.
The tanker truck at the base made a loud stirring sound. The two zombies seemed to be attracted by the sound and slowly approached the base.
However, everyone in the base basically saw no zombies today, and their vigilance dropped a lot.
In the days after entering the base, those workers ate and drank with Li Yu and others, and had beds to sleep peacefully at night. With enough food and sleep, their bodies have recovered a lot and they are slowly adapting mentally.
Now we are chatting and working.
There is no way. Although building a wall is simple, it is too repetitive and can easily make you sleepy.
However, the two zombies had slowly approached the base and reached the woods.
The distance from where everyone built the urn city is less than 30 meters!
