After Uncle San and others tested it, the military radio can be used normally.
At this time, Li Yu and others who were hundreds of kilometers away could receive news from Uncle San and others.
The third uncle then told Li Yu and the others the gathering point of the Cai Guo ancient city ruins that they had encountered on the way back.
After learning the news, Li Yu looked at the time. It was already four in the afternoon. If he wanted to visit the gathering point of Cai Guo Ancient City, he probably wouldn't be able to return to Oil City Walled City tonight.
In addition, going there rashly like this can easily arouse the fear and counterattack of the ancient city of Cai State.
After some hesitation, Li Yu decided to return to Oil City Walled City first.
Anyway, Runan is still some distance away from the Oil City, and based on the observations of Third Uncle and the others, this force is not large in scale and not very strong.
As long as the well water does not interfere with the river water and their interests are not harmed, there is no need to deal with each other.
All they need to know is that there is such a place.
Therefore, Li Yu ordered the convoy not to turn around and return directly to the Oil City.
After all, Third Uncle and the others were flying in a helicopter, and there was no air route altitude control in the apocalypse, so they were walking in a straight line.
But the car Li Yu and the others drive will be affected by buildings, woods, roads, etc., so they will take some detours.
If Li Yu and the others want to go to the oil city, they must go around the G4 road.
The speed of the car is not very fast. The car is loaded with various military supplies. If the speed is too fast, the tires will be blown out easily.
Along the way, everyone could see two or three sparse survivors on the roadside. Li Yu and the others did not stop the car, and the survivors did not catch up.
There seems to be a tacit understanding between each other not to disturb each other.
In the apocalypse, people are often more afraid of strangers than zombies.
Because when a person encounters a single zombie, he can use a spear to deal with it.
But if you meet someone who doesn't know his background, it is very likely that he will want to rob you of all your supplies, even your flesh.
In the apocalypse, humans are more terrifying than zombies.
Soon, two hours later.
Li Yu and the others finally saw the oil city in the distance. They saw the oil city standing in a plain, with the high oil wells illuminated by the setting sun.
When they left, there were only a dozen cars, but when they returned, there were dozens of cars.
Among them are armored transport vehicles and infantry fighting vehicles, which look very domineering.
When Lao Luo, Xiao Jun and others who were standing on the fence saw Li Yu's vehicle, they immediately asked someone to open the gate.
Although this gate was pieced together using two trucks, it was loaded with more than ten tons of soil and was so thick that the zombies couldn't push it at all.
However, the entire wall of the oil city here needs to be repaired and reinforced. They are used to tall walls like the Da Zhangshu base, and they always feel insecure when they stay in such a rough and simple wall.
As the vehicle slowly drove into the oil city.
Except for the third uncle and others who came back early, they were still in the conference room at this time.
Others who came out, whether it was Lao Luo or Zhong Chuchu, were shocked that Li Yu and the others came back with so much supplies.
Looking at Li Yu getting out of the car, Lao Luo approached Li Yu and said, "Mr. Li, how did you get these things?"
Li Yu stretched his body, and his body felt numb all the way down.
Facing Lao Luo's question, Li Yu said with a smile: "Originally, I was looking for that military radio station, but I didn't expect to get a little windfall!"
A bit, an unexpected bonus?
Lao Luo was really regretful at this time. He should not have stayed in the Oil City Walled City, but should have gone with them.
Li Yu then asked: "Where are the third uncle and the others? Where are they now?"
Lao Luo pointed to the place they designated as a temporary meeting room. Li Yu thought for a moment and said, "If you want to know more, you can ask Lao Bi and the others. I'll go there first."
"Okay, okay, go and do your business." Lao Luo nodded, and then walked to Lao Bi in the other car.
"Come on, Lao Bi, tell me what happened on your trip. I'm so curious."
"It's Lao Luo. It's actually quite magical to say that we are actually there."
Li Yu walked straight to the place that was temporarily designated as a conference room.
As soon as I walked to the door, I heard the sound of ants inside.
"Tap, tap, oh, step back and let me come."
Li Yu stepped in and saw that in this temporary conference room, several tables were put together to form an oversized table, and then a layer of cloth was placed on top.
On the cloth, it was Ant, Cannon, Li Gang and others who were slowly unfolding the military map.
At this time, the military map has been expanded halfway.
Since Ju Tianrui had randomly stuffed it into the wooden tube when he picked it up, now that he has time, he will definitely lay out the map and repair it.
"Xiaoyu." The third uncle sitting on the chair on the right was the first to see Li Yu come in.
"Uncle Third." Li Yu walked in slowly, watching Ant and the others unfold the military map, and then tried his best to patch the map with something.
Pointing at the map, he asked, "How's it going? What can you find on this map?"
The third uncle shook his head and said: "I haven't looked at it yet. I'll look at it after they finish repairing it. By the way, you didn't encounter anything when you came back, right?"
"No, it's the ancient city of Cai. Uncle, do you think we should take the initiative to contact them?" Li Yu hesitated and said.
The third uncle thought about it for a while.
He said: "I think it's better not to use it. It's a little far away from the oil city, and it's not strong enough to pose a threat to us. And that place doesn't have any interests for us, so it's better to keep the status quo."
Li Yu nodded. He had no objection to Third Uncle's idea.
Afterwards, he left the temporary conference room.
When I came out of the conference room, I saw Lao Luo and Xiao Jun surrounding Lao Bi, listening to the experience of this trip.
Smiling and shaking his head, looking at the many vehicles parked in the current oil city, Li Yu thought to himself: It's almost time to go back after leaving Da Zhangshu Base for so long.
However, everyone has been very busy in the past week.
So Li Yu planned to let everyone rest in the oil city for two days and then go back with these things.
It’s rare to feel relaxed after being busy.
Li Yu sat on the roof of the RV, watching the sunset set little by little. The sunset was very beautiful, but it was extremely short-lived.
Suddenly, Li Yu noticed someone approaching.
Turning his head, he saw Zhong Chuchu walking towards him alone.
She immediately remembered what she had told her two days ago, asking her to make choices for the people in the former oil city. Now that she came here, she should tell herself the result.
"Mr. Li."
Li Yu jumped off the roof of the car, looked at Zhong Chuchu and said, "What's the matter?"
Zhong Chuchu said: "The two choices you asked me to talk to them about before have now come to fruition.
There are a total of 87 people, 64 of whom want to stay in Oil City Walled City, and 23 of whom want to follow us to the headquarters of Da Zhangshu Base in the South. "
When Zhong Chuchu said this, her expression was a little complicated.
She originally thought that many people would go to the south together, but to her surprise, most people wanted to stay here.
Perhaps for them, staying in a familiar place is more worthwhile than going to a distant and unfamiliar place.
After Li Yu heard this, he pondered for two seconds. The result was somewhat different from what he expected.
He originally thought that many people would follow him to the south, but he didn't expect that there would be more people staying here.
But this way, that’s fine.
At least Lao Bi and the others who will be stationed here in the future will have less pressure.
Later, the walls of the oil city will be repaired and raised, and manpower will be needed at that time. These remaining people can be put to use.
"Okay, I understand, is there anything else?" Li Yu looked at Zhong Chuchu and asked.
"Well, according to the regulations of the Da Zhangshu Base, as cooperators, only labor or materials can be exchanged for food. They took two meals worth of food before carrying it, and now they have finished it. What other tasks do we have next? Something like that?”
Zhong Chuchu hesitated for a moment and then said to Li Yu.
When Li Yu heard this, Zhong Chuchu almost forgot about this incident without reminding him.
In the past, at the Da Zhangshu Base, he didn't have to think about this matter at all, and his second uncle would naturally handle it.
Being able to maintain a large number of cooperative personnel, there are always tasks to perform, so that they can exchange for food.
After being reminded by Zhong Chuchu, Li Yu thought for a while and said: "Yes, the task will be issued tomorrow. It will be the same as the Da Zhangshu Base. You can redeem it as long as it is completed. Don't worry."
Hearing Li Yu's answer, Zhong Chuchu breathed a sigh of relief.
She understands that as long as you can have something to eat and not starve to death, it is normal to do something.
After saying this, Zhong Chuchu said something to Li Yu and then left.
After she left, Li Yu immediately found Lao Bi who was on duty on the fence.
"Mr. Li." Lao Bi saw Li Yu coming and greeted him quickly.
Li Yu didn't talk nonsense and got straight to the point:
"Lao Bi, we will return to Da Zhangshu Base from here in a few days. Then I will leave thirty-five people stationed here for you. If you have any needs, tell me as soon as possible. I will try my best to satisfy you. satisfy you.
In addition, I have just talked with Zhong Chuchu. Among the people who were taken away from the motorcycle gangs in the former oil city two days ago, more than 60 people stayed.
At that time, these people will stay here as partners of the Da Zhangshu Base, helping to operate the refining equipment and repair the walls.
Everything still follows the rules of the Da Zhangshu Base, including labor or searching for materials and supplies in exchange for food.
The only difference is that these people live in the oil city.
I want to remind you that you should be careful with these people. Even with Zhong Chuchu’s endorsement and the intimidation of the Da Zhangshu base headquarters, you are here, after all, it is far away from the Da Zhangshu base, so be careful! "
Li Yu finished the story in one breath, then took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, took out one, and then threw the remaining pack directly to Lao Bi.
Lao Bi listened carefully and thought for a long time.
He then said: "Mr. Li, I have two requests."
Li Yu blew out the smoke, looked at him and said, "Say."
"First one, add five more people to me. For weapons, I want 40 automatic rifles, 40 pistols, 20,000 rounds of ammunition, two heavy machine guns, two rocket launchers, and two mortars. There are also fixed Those explosion-proof suits and explosion-proof helmets will be provided to me."
"Okay." Li Yu replied directly without any hesitation.
Even if Lao Bi didn't say anything, Li Yu would give him these things. Without these weapons, the oil city could not be defended.
"The second request is that I want food. I've seen it in the Oil City Walled City and it can be grown. But it's already June and it's out of season. We can only build greenhouses like those at the Da Zhangshu Base.
Even if you can plant other crops, it will take time to harvest. "
Li Yu raised his eyebrows, looked at Lao Bi, and said, "How much food do you want?"
Lao Bi thought for a moment and said, "How about keeping all those seized from the motorcycle gang?"
"Why did you keep so much?" Li Yu frowned and said.
That's dozens of tons of grain, and there are more than 40 Lao Bi stationed here. Even if you include the people from the original oil city, there are only more than 100 people.
One kilogram of grain per person per day, with more than 100 people, is less than 120 kilograms per day. That’s only 21 tons a year.
This food was enough for them to eat for two full years.
Lao Bi said with some embarrassment: "There have been some natural disasters in the past two years. I am far away from the Da Zhangshu Base. I always feel unlucky and afraid of going hungry."
Li Yu shook his head and said: "I understand your mood, but there can't be so much food. I will give you food for three months at most. Now that we have a helicopter, it can travel at 260 kilometers per hour. It only takes three hours to get there from the Da Zhangshu base." .
What's more, that Mi-8 helicopter has a load capacity of 12 tons. If you are short of food here, you can send people to deliver food over there at any time.
That's it, this matter is non-negotiable. "
Even though Lao Bi has been joining the Da Zhangshu Base for a long time, Li Yu still doesn't dare to test people's hearts.
If he hadn't known that there would be a typhoon and rainstorm in the coming days, he might have only left two months' worth of food.
After all, according to his original plan.
A shift system is adopted and personnel are replaced every two months.
At that time, when the stationed personnel are replaced, it will be enough to use helicopters to bring people there and at the same time bring a few tons of food.
Even if the Oil City can achieve self-sufficiency and produce food in the future, Li Yu will still transport the food produced here back to the base.
Let the oil city always maintain a food supply of only two or three months.
The oil city is highly dependent on the Da Zhangshu base.
In the last days, he would not dare to use power to test people's hearts.
After seeing Li Yu's firm attitude, Lao Bi still wanted to fight for it.
But he was afraid of arousing Li Yu's suspicion, so he didn't dare to say anything anymore. Anyway, he would stay here for two months, and after two months, he would return to the Da Zhangshu base.
So, he nodded and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you, I have no problem."
Li Yu saw that he knew what was going on and didn't insist anymore, so he nodded with satisfaction.
Then he said: "I just mentioned that those people in the former oil city will start issuing tasks tomorrow. They also need to eat, so you have to start preparing quickly."
Lao Bi looked bitter and said helplessly: "I don't know the standard. It was your second uncle who was the internal affairs manager who did this in the past. I don't know what the judging standard is..."
Although Li Yu knew it, it took too much time to talk about it.
He knew that Li Tie and Li Gang also knew this.
So he said: "Later, you go to Li Gang and Li Tie and ask them to tell you. I remember there should be a list. They have it. They can modify some contents according to local conditions according to the oil city walled area. For example, how long can the operating equipment be in one day?" How much food can be obtained, how much can be obtained by building walls, collecting materials, and so on.
You will work it out tonight. No matter how late it is, you will take it over and check it with me, and we will start implementing it tomorrow. "
"So urgent?" Lao Bi just came back from Zheng City today. He spent a day moving things and riding in a car. To be honest, he was quite tired.
Li Yu nodded and said: "People have to eat, and those people in the former oil city are still waiting for our exchange ratio.
Although we can directly provide them with food, the rules cannot be broken and the system must be established first.
Do it quickly later, it will be much easier later. "
Lao Bi slapped his waist and said helplessly: "Okay, I'll go find them right now."
After saying that, he was about to lift his steps and walk towards Li Tie and the others.
"Wait." Li Yu stopped Lao Bi.
Lao Bi stopped in confusion and looked at Li Yu.
"The positioning of the Oil City Walled City is very simple. It is to supply stable oil to the Da Zhangshu Base. Therefore, if it is not necessary, do not leave the Oil City Walled City. Even if enemies appear, do not take the initiative to attack.
If you encounter someone who covets the oil city, you immediately use the military radio to contact the Da Zhangshu Base. Within three or four hours at most, I will send a helicopter to support you.
Do you understand this? "
Lao Bi stood up straight and said seriously: "I understand."
"Well, there are actually two things you have to do next. First, guard the oil city and lead those people to repair the wall.
Second, to stably produce oil, I will send people to pick up the oil at a fixed time. "
"I understand." Lao Bi nodded and said with a serious expression.
Li Yu stared at him for a while, and then said: "Okay, you can go find Li Tie and the others. Remember to give me a look after you have made the plan."
"Okay, so I'm going now?" Lao Bi gave Li Yu a tentative look.
Li Yu nodded.
Seeing Li Yu nod, Lao Bi took a step and ran towards the two brothers Li Tie.
I'm crying in my heart, I guess I won't be able to sleep tonight.
The establishment of the system and the discussion of the exchange ratio took the most time. He was exhausted now, but Li Yu said it would be done tonight.
so tired.
Li Yu looked at Lao Bi's leaving figure and the helicopter separated by a fence not far away, with a smile on his face.
It seems that with a helicopter, the maneuverability is much stronger.
Many things have become much more convenient.
Unfortunately, there is only one car, and there are still some minor problems that have not been repaired.
