Rebirth in the last days: 30 million winning prizes at the beginning
Chapter 1720 Every second counts
Three o'clock in the afternoon.
Oil City.
On the wall, Lao Luo was doing his routine inspection, when suddenly there was a noise from around him.
"It's snowing!"
"Luoxue!"
He raised his head and saw the snowflakes falling slowly in the sky. In the gray sky, the snowflakes fluttered and fell on his raised face.
drop--
Within a few seconds of the snowfall, sharp whistles sounded throughout the Oil City and even the Buffer City.
Buffer outside the city.
Zhang Rufeng saw the flying snowflakes and quickly turned his head to look behind him.
Picked up the walkie-talkie and contacted Xie Changshan: "Xie Changshan, stop the construction of the wall quickly and deploy ultraviolet lights quickly!"
The people from their Civil Affairs Department cannot retreat now. They must wait until ultraviolet lights and other equipment are installed at the construction site behind them before they can retreat and seal the east gate of the buffer city.
Sizzling——
There was a commotion on the other side, and Xie Changshan's voice came from the other side, "I know, I'm making arrangements!"
Jie Changshan looked serious and took a deep breath.
He was originally under the buffer city and quickly ran towards the top of the buffer city.
While running, he picked up the walkie-talkie to contact all the supervisors on the construction site.
"Stop the construction of the wall and quickly install the ultraviolet lamps prepared before! Immediately!"
"Also, quickly have them install a temporary enclosed tower and then connect the heating pipes!"
"yes!"
"receive!"
They had reserved electrical conduits before, and now they only needed to install the ultraviolet lamps that had been prepared.
In addition, a week ago, when the buffer city was surrounded by walls, the third uncle came up with the idea of continuing to build a buffer city in the face of the ice disaster.
Save time.
This idea was recognized by the Da Zhangshu base headquarters, and since then water, electricity, and heating pipelines have been laid.
Because the buffer city is surrounded, it can resist the swarms of ordinary zombies. As for wall-climbing zombies, as long as ultraviolet lights are installed, there will be no problem.
In this way, the construction of greenhouses and other buildings in the buffer city can continue without worrying about zombies crawling in from outside the buffer city.
Therefore, they dug out from the trading market and buried the heating pipes in advance, which led to the pipes reserved in advance on the wall.
The perimeter of the buffer city wall is tens of thousands of meters, and building a guard tower of an average of 300 meters requires about 100 guard towers.
If it is to build a concrete fixed sentry tower, it will take a lot of time, but if it is a container-type closed sentry tower, you only need to lift the container up with a crane and fix it.
Installation is extremely fast.
These container-style sentry towers are actually inconvenient to see the outside situation from inside, but at least they are closed.
Keep warm!
As long as the heating pipes and electricity are connected, heating and electricity can be provided inside.
It is suitable for the guards on the buffer city who are on duty here for a long time.
It is particularly important to protect the buffer city walls and prevent wall-climbing zombies from entering the buffer city.
But the temperature is so low now, and if the temperature continues to drop later, the guards will not be able to stand in the snowstorm for a long time, several hours or even more than ten hours.
Sooner or later, he will freeze to death.
More than a hundred sentry towers can provide the guards on the buffer city with a short rest time to prevent them from being exposed to low temperature environments for a long time.
Therefore, the existence of a closed sentry tower is extremely important!
Jie Changshan quickly ran to the buffer city wall and personally directed the installation.
Although the elevator on the inside of the buffer city wall has not been installed in time, there is a walk up and there is scaffolding, so it is not difficult to go up and down the wall from the inside.
There were shouts and shouts everywhere on the construction site.
"You guys, hurry down and help, use roller skates to pull up the container!"
"Group A13, as I told you before, go up and install the ultraviolet lamp. The ultraviolet lamp is in the shed next to it..."
On the construction site, Zhang Shi touched the snowflakes on his head and twisted them into snow water.
The worker he was supervising was not assigned to install ultraviolet lights, so he shouted to the worker next to him:
"Don't run around, wait up there and help tow the container."
Under the command of many supervisors, the workers on the construction site were in chaos and orderly. They stopped the wall heightening project and tried their best to install ultraviolet lights and build temporary container-style sentry towers.
After the snowfall, the temperature did not drop immediately, and it even felt like it had risen slightly.
In addition, there is no wind at the moment, so it is not as cold as expected.
These workers include skilled workers and some are new to the job. Some of them panicked after seeing the snow.
"It's snowing, why don't you let us go back to the trading market?" asked a new worker who had only joined the company a few days ago.
"Yes, our lives are ours too. It's snowing. I want to go back to the trading market."
"It's snowing, and I'm afraid more zombies will come. Should we stay on this wall and wait to die?"
An old worker who had been working on the wall for a long time heard their low-pitched complaints, frowned and cursed:
"Stop arguing. You newcomers are really unruly. Didn't you see that the people from the Civil Armed Forces Brigade are still outside? No one has evacuated. Why should we evacuate if we stay on the wall?"
"Besides, you can only get half a day's points for withdrawing now, and it's not too cold now. If you're afraid of the cold, don't sign up for construction. It's hard to earn points now... If it gets colder later and there's no work to do, just
No points, let’s see what you do!”
After the newcomers heard what he said, worry appeared on their faces.
It's getting cold, it's snowing, and the city will be closed soon.
They stay in the trading market, and if they don't have enough points, they can only wait to die.
Or can we just run out in the wind and snow?
But running out of the trading market at this time is tantamount to courting death.
After thinking about it carefully, I feel that he is right.
"Brother Zheng, what do you think we should do now?"
"Yes, yes, I just came to the trading market and I don't understand anything. What if I have no points and can't buy food here?"
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The old worker named Zheng glanced at them and said calmly:
"What else can we do? Let's follow the arrangements and finish the work today... As for what happens next, let's see what happens. According to the urine of Oil City, since we want to defend the buffer city wall, I'm afraid we have some considerations.
of."
"Did you see the greenhouse materials over there? I guess there must be work behind it."
"That's good, as long as you have work to do." A man with curly hair patted his chest and breathed a sigh of relief.
Not far away, the supervisor shouted to them:
"What are you doing? Come here quickly and help us pull this container over!"
"Here we come!" Lao Zheng rubbed his hands and walked over there.
The supervisor stood by the wall, and a huge container was suspended in the air by a crane next to it.
This kind of container is generally 6 meters long, 2.4 meters wide and 2.4 meters high.
The buffer city wall can be placed completely. The width of the buffer city wall reaches 6 meters. If it is placed close to the wall, there is still a width of 3.6 meters on the other side of the wall for passing people.
In the snow.
The line of sight was affected. Zhang Rufeng and others who were outside the buffer city all got out of the car.
It stares straight into the distance, and when it spots a human-shaped object, it will take out a loudspeaker and shout.
"Is it a human or a zombie? If it's a human, raise your hands. If not, I'll kill you!"
Before it snows, they can still see hundreds of meters away, but once it snows and is blocked by snowflakes, they can only see tens of meters away.
The characteristics of wall-climbing zombies are relatively obvious. They like to get on all fours. Although their movements are fast, they can be recognized at a glance.
Once they recognized a wall-climbing zombie, they immediately covered it with firepower.
At this moment, they are facing the most severe test.
The sky is dark and snowflakes are falling.
Behind them, various shouts, orders, and mechanical sounds such as electric drills continued to be heard.
...
The water source of the water plant outside the oil city.
In the fixed sentry tower built on the pier, Zhong Jiuling, the water plant equipment maintenance engineer stationed here, and Zhang Wei from the first group of the third squadron of the 17th Civil Armed Forces Brigade were stationed here with eight team members.
Not long after the snow fell, they immediately received a notice asking them to return to Oil City immediately.
When they saw it was snowing, they immediately got off the watchtower and quickly got into the car.
While on the road, they received a notice asking them to withdraw.
They were stationed at Nan Van Lake and had a very hard time.
They didn't want to be stationed in such a dangerous place at all, but they caught the lot and had no choice but to come here.
The most unlucky person is Zhong Jiuling. As a water plant maintenance engineer, he has been stationed here since the dock here was built.
I live a life of fear every day.
Sometimes, zombies enter the water from the land, and there are also zombies crawling out of the water.
The time is uncertain.
Especially at night, they can see zombies rolling on the lake from the sentry tower.
Boom boom boom——
Zhang Wei stepped on the accelerator to the bottom, and the vehicle drove loudly on the icy and snowy road.
"Close the windows tightly, it's too cold!" he shouted to the co-pilot team member.
"Team leader, it's already closed." The team member said helplessly.
Swish, brush, brush!
Snowflakes were falling on the front windshield of the car.
As the vehicle was moving, the wind blew, and the wind got in through the gaps in the vehicle.
The cold made them shiver.
Zhang Wei turned on the heater and the temperature inside the car rose, making them feel better.
It is only ten kilometers from Nanwan Lake to the trading market and can be returned in ten minutes.
They are very lucky.
When they ran out of the guard tower, there happened to be no zombies around, so they were able to run so quickly to the car in the grass on the shore.
Even so, when they ran out, they still alerted some zombies in the lake, who climbed ashore and pursued them.
However, the speed of the zombies could not match the speed of the vehicles, and they successfully got rid of the zombies chasing behind them.
They had already prepared to run away in the guard tower, so when they saw it was snowing, they didn't wait for the notice from Oil City, or even packed their things. When they saw that there were no zombies on the dock, they locked the door and ran away.
If they didn't retreat in time, they might have to survive this frozen natural disaster in the guard tower.
I shudder just thinking about it.
The wind and snow hit the windshield violently.
At first it was just a few sporadic drops, and then it fell in groups, and the snowflakes were as big as goose feathers.
And it is getting worse.
Thumb, thump, thump—
They were passing through a bumpy road. The front of the car lurched forward, the body of the car was suspended in the air, and it fell heavily to the ground.
Zhang Wei in the car held the steering wheel tightly and tried his best to control the direction.
It's snowing and the roads are a little slippery.
After the vehicle became more stable, Zhang Wei slowed down a bit.
He didn't want everyone to be stuck in this place because he was driving too fast and the car rolled over.
There are still five kilometers left to the oil city. If the car overturns, it will take at least an hour to walk back.
Various accidents may occur during this hour.
.........
Buffer outside the city.
Zhang Rufeng wore a windproof hat and stared ahead with squinted eyes.
"Captain, it seems that another group of survivors has arrived." The men next to him shouted to Zhang Rufeng.
Zhang Rufeng said: "The horn reminds them!"
"good!"
Liu Cunxi picked up the loudspeaker and shouted at them:
"People in front of you, listen, if you are human, please raise your hands, otherwise you will be killed as a zombie. Repeat..."
He shouted several times in succession.
I saw that group of people raising their hands one after another.
Seeing them raise their hands, Zhang Rufeng took his finger off the trigger.
The gun almost went off.
As the group of people got closer, Zhang Rufeng and others could see clearly what they looked like.
These people were in ragged clothes, all of them were sallow and skinny, and they looked like zombies.
Especially when walking, my steps are shaky and weak.
"Ahem, cough, cough... Excuse me, is this the way to enter the trading market?" The leader, a gray-haired old man, shouted to Zhang Rufeng and others.
His hair was covered with snowflakes, blending with the white hair.
"Well, hurry in. Go in from here and walk two kilometers straight to see a door. Enter the trading market." Zhang Rufeng nodded and said.
For some reason, when Zhang Rufeng saw him, he remembered the leader of the Sanshan Village who had accepted him, and was also his father-in-law.
It's a pity that he died in that winter zombie wave.
"Thank you, cough." The old man in the lead coughed twice, covered his mouth with his hand, stretched out his hand and saw a pool of blood coughed up on his hand.
The old man clenched his fists, nodded towards Zhang Rufeng, and walked towards the buffer city with the others behind him.
This team is the most miserable-looking team that Zhang Rufeng has seen in a while.
All of them were old, weak, sick, and disabled. Although there were some healthy men, they were as skinny as ribs.
Moreover, their clothes were extremely tattered. In such a cold weather, they were only wearing a thin long sleeve, and there were even holes in the long sleeve.
Everyone's face was dirty, as if they hadn't eaten food in many days.
Moreover, they had very little luggage, which made them extremely poor at first glance.
well......
Zhang Rufeng looked at their leaving figures, sighed and shook his head.
There was nothing he could do, he couldn't help them.
However, they were lucky enough to get in before the buffer city was closed.
"I don't know when it will be done from above..." Zhang Rufeng turned to look at the wall behind him.
I saw a huge container fixed on the eight-meter-high buffer city wall.
The workers above are cutting holes in the containers and inserting heating pipes into them.
