Snowflakes fell in the sky at some point, and the ground that had been cleaned just two days ago was less crowded because of the darkness, and a thin layer of white snow soon accumulated.
The layer of fallen snow on the square in front of a small three-story building on the north side of the base was forced to mix with the soil layer on the ground under the rolling of successive vehicles, causing every arriving vehicle to sink into the mud middle.
But whether they were driving, cycling, or walking, everyone who came here didn't pay attention to the dirt on the ground. They rushed to the front of the building and stepped on it in three steps. After walking down the stairs, I ran to the door of the innermost room, then slowed down a little, took a few seconds to clean up my appearance, and quietly pushed the door in.
Although our home is a bit far from the army station in the North District, Ye Xuan and Ling Jiaze arrived relatively early because they got the news relatively early. The two of them sat in the front row of the conference room, watching the door keep opening All the officers, the base managers, and the captains of several teams of supernatural beings all looked at each other and realized that this would not be a trivial matter today.
After Xi Man came in, he looked around, sat down in a row behind Ye Xuan, called him in a low voice, and asked, "Ye Xuan, what happened today? Someone is calling, what happened?"
She was wearing a knitted hat, and there was still some moisture in the ends of her hair. It looked like she had just taken a shower, and she hurried out before she had time to dry her hair.
"I don't know, the two of us have just been called over."
"I hope it's not a big deal, let alone a bad thing. Recently, there have been people coming and going in the base, and a lot of ordinary people with supernatural powers have come. It's already a little uneasy. If something happens at this juncture, That would be a very bad day.”
"It's hard to say." A young man next to her frowned and said, "When I first came here, I saw a lot of acquaintances, all of whom were well-known leaders in the base. I guess so many people were called here in this snowy day. What a good thing."
Ye Xuan didn't know this person, so he didn't answer his words. He didn't expect to let him make it right.
…
"In the past week, with the bases in cities C and H as the main bases, supplemented by other bases in the central region, nearly 10,000 people have arrived at the bases one after another. According to them, tens of thousands of people will arrive at the bases in the future. Nine percent of them Ten of them were because of the zombie siege, they had to leave the previous base and escape here at great risk."
A huge map suddenly appeared on the big screen behind Shen Minglang. On the map, circles were drawn with red pens one by one, indicating those areas where zombie siege occurred. Numbers were marked beside the red circles, representing the The approximate number of people living in the base before.
When listening to what he said, the people here didn't feel anything, but when this map appeared and saw the red circles all over the country appear, everyone in the meeting room felt tense.
"As shown in the picture, in the past three months, zombie sieges have occurred in most parts of the country, and hundreds of small bases have been destroyed as a result, including the two medium-sized bases of City C and City H , and this is only the information we can learn."
Although it is now the third year of the last days, the transportation network connecting various regions has not been repaired by human beings with the passage of time. Because of the wanton growth of mutant plants, it was completely broken.
In addition, the communication technology has only been restored to the point where close calls can be made, and the bases can only be contacted by running errands, so even if the northwest base and the base in city b send people to communicate every three months, it still takes There is no first-hand news, let alone such small news that there is a wave of zombies in a certain place.
That is to say, in places they don't know, they don't know how many small bases have been destroyed silently, and they haven't even been able to deliver a message...
"After learning of this news, based on the news from the survivors who came to the Northwest Base in recent days, and the news from the team of supernatural beings who have recently entered and exited the base, we sent several teams to use to check the movement of nearby zombies."
The national map on the screen behind him was replaced by a new map around the Northwest Base made not long ago that combined the past map and the existing situation. It marked the recently explored zombie activity sites with red dots. The area and color of the red dots are marked in the lower left corner, and the corresponding meanings. Ye Xuan squinted his eyes and looked at the conspicuous red on the map, and murmured: "This looks a bit like a ring, no, isn't this the base Is it surrounded?"
"Damn it, this picture is real!"
"When I went out two days ago, I felt that there were a lot of zombies, but it turns out that the city is about to besieged by zombies?"
"Fake it? When did zombies have such an IQ and play siege?"
…
"Boom—" Shen Minglang knocked on the table, and after the conference room became quiet, he said, "As far as we can judge, the main reason why the zombies are going to the base surrounded by zombies is a spontaneous behavior caused by the zombies being attracted by human flesh and blood. For example Look here, the number of zombies on the east and west sides of the base is similar, which is obviously inconsistent with the population distribution before the end of the world, but considering that there is a medium-sized base in the east of the base... that is, this location can attract zombies to a certain extent, so both sides came here The question that the number of zombies is similar can be answered."
After hearing this, a middle-aged man with a red face and a strong body in the back row shouted: "There's nothing to be afraid of, isn't it just that normal zombies can't find something to eat in one place, and then Do you just follow the taste to find food? As for the heavy snow, will you find us here?"
Shen Minglang raised his eyes and glanced at him, and said without any fluctuations in his tone: "When you encounter zombies who are swayed by the wind outside, you can choose another place to rest, but what if the destination of the zombies is the base? There is nothing to be afraid of? You guys I don’t know how many small bases have been destroyed in the zombie siege in the past few months? The small base is gone, and who of you dare to say that the big base will not be afraid of the zombie siege?”
He drew a few lines on the screen with a long metal stick, and explained: "Based on the movement speed of the zombies, the earliest batch will arrive at the outskirts of the base in three days, and the latest will arrive in five days." Therefore, the base decided to strictly prohibit the residents of the base from leaving for more than one day in the next week, and the zombie siege came three days later
At that time, everyone must stay inside the base and obey the command. "
As soon as Shen Minglang finished speaking, the conference room became chaotic:
"Ah! This is not acceptable. Our base has already planned to hunt mutant animals in the mountains tomorrow morning!"
"Yes, why do you restrict our personal freedom?"
"What's enough to go out for a day? You don't need to stand here and talk without back pain!"
"No, I don't accept your request!"
"Is it enough to say one by one? There are no eggs under the nest, and you can still have the base after the base is over?"
"Didn't you make it clear when you came to the base to settle down? You must abide by the laws of the base at ordinary times, and you must obey the command at critical moments and protect the base!"
…
Ye Xuan glanced back, and most of the people who objected were the captains of some influential but not top-level supernatural teams. As for Xi Man and the leaders of several top supernatural teams, they all tacitly understood it. remained silent.
As for those who supported the base, some were the team leaders who were close to the base, and some were more clear-headed. The two groups almost knocked down the ceiling of the conference room when they talked to each other.
Ye Xuan saw that Ling Jiaze was getting a headache from being quarreled by these young birds, so he whispered in his ear, "They probably will continue to quarrel for a while, the two of us go out to catch our breath, and come back in later?"
There are entrances and exits at the front and back of the stepped meeting room, and the two of them are sitting in the first row, next to a door, which is very convenient to enter and exit.
Ling Jiaze nodded, and the two quietly got up and left their seats.
—
The sound insulation quality of the door is not bad. Standing outside, you can hear a group of people talking inside, but it is far from as noisy as before. Ling Jiaze leaned against the wall, rubbed his swollen temples, and complained: "They are too noisy, endless!"
"No way, the base has been established for more than two years. This is the first time we have encountered such a major event that requires orders to all personnel. It is normal to have a lot of friction for a while. After all, there are many captains of the supernatural team who came today, basically including all the strength of the base. The middle and upper classes have some private forces who have the right to speak, and they must be given a chance to express their personal opinions."
Whether this opinion is useful or not is another matter.
After all, the base doesn't have to listen to them, but it can't make them stop talking, right
Ling Jiaze nodded, and leaned against the wall and whispered, "That's fine. We'll get rid of all these influential teams at once, and the rest will be easy to handle."
There is no cost to register a team. Three people who have settled in the base can go to the Survivor Activity Center to register a team. There are countless new registrations and disbandment teams every year. It is obviously unrealistic to call every person in charge to discuss. , but it is not enough to leave these teams completely regardless of direct orders.
So it is necessary to call those who speak the words among these people, resolve their opinions first, and reach an agreement with them, and then let them lead the other teams in the base to obey the order.
Otherwise, just talking about a zombie siege, there is no need to call so many people from the team of supernatural beings.
And after this incident, it will be convenient for the base to issue an order if this kind of zombie siege occurs again in the future, or if there is any major event.
Thinking of this, Ye Xuan suddenly had an idea - "How about I only take care of logistics this time?"
