C1063 Li Weiping's View
It wasn't because Wang Yi wanted these soldiers to know how much he cared about them. However, Wang Yi had always believed that these soldiers were the most dangerous ones.
They were different from the soldiers who were fighting on the front lines of the Huhhot City. They could clearly know where the danger was, and could also effectively organize an attack or retreat.
The soldiers that were guarding this road were very close to the Huhhot City and Ringer County, which was equivalent to passing through half of the two cities. If the two cities' corpse groups were to suddenly explode, the soldiers on both sides of the road might be able to escape, but the ones in the middle could not do anything, and could only accept their fate.
Of course, the treatment of these soldiers was also the best. Even if they were to face any danger, their families in the gathering area would all be raised by the gathering area.
Along the way, they arrived at the frontline base of the Huhhot City. It was already late at night.
Wang Yi only left for a few days. However, the headquarter had changed a lot.
The most important thing was the outer wall that Wang Yi ordered to be built.
From its original height of five meters, it had already reached an average height of seven meters tall and four meters wide.
Although it only increased the height by two meters, this wall was the longest. It was a distance of over ten kilometers. Even if one was able to increase the height by two meters, the amount of materials needed would definitely be a huge number.
Furthermore, Wang Yi's original requirement was a height of fifteen meters, corresponding to the width of the city wall, it should be at least ten meters high.
Because the wall wasn't made entirely from cement, it would weaken in strength. Therefore, they could only build it wider in order to let the wall maintain its strength and be able to resist the Giant Corpse's attacks for a certain distance.
When Wang Yi and his team arrived, the front base was still brightly lit, working overtime to build the fence.
When Xu Liqiang found out that Wang Yi had brought back a lot of engineering equipment, he immediately went up to welcome him.
"Chief Wang." Xu Liqiang's expression became excited when he saw Wang Yi.
"Old Xu, how is the construction of the wall progressing? Is there any problem? "
Wang Yi stared into the darkness at the rugged, dragon-like city wall.
The city walls were not a straight line, because they were built in a hurry. Therefore, many of the paragraphs were built using local materials and collapsed buildings.
"There weren't any big problems, but the construction of the city wall was very slow and there were not many materials sent over. According to the leader's plan, it would take at least a few months to build the wall up to fifteen meters tall."
Xu Liqiang shook his head and said.
After all, the higher the city walls were built. The more materials used, the more, and this wasn't just a wall, but three more needed to be built.
"But this time, I heard that the leader obtained quite a bit of engineering equipment in Zhuozhou City?" Xu Liqiang said as his eyes lit up.
"That's right, the equipment we got this time should be around seventy to eighty." Zhang Fei said on the side.
"That's quite a lot. Xu Liqiang nodded.
Eighty to eighty engineering equipment were almost twice as much as the ones in the gathering area now. Of course, these referred to excavator bulldozers and the like. As for those mud carts, they were excluded.
After all, these things were very common at all times, and there were at least 1,800 of them in the gathering area.
"I will give all of these engineering equipment to you. Old Xu, how long do you think it will take to build these three walls?" Wang Yi asked.
"About two months." Xu Liqiang paused and said,
In two months, adding up the length of the three walls, it would be at least twenty kilometers. Although the speed at which it was built wouldn't be much, it definitely wouldn't be considered slow if it was built to a height of fifteen meters.
"Sure."
Wang Yi nodded. In two months time, there should not be any changes to the corpses within the Huhhot City. Also, Wang Yi will have to get up and go to the capital for a meeting in two months. If he can finish repairing the wall before Wang Yi goes to the capital, then Wang Yi will be a lot more at ease.
"Oh yeah, where did Lee Weiping go?"
At this moment, Zhang Fei looked around but did not see Lee Weiping's figure. He could not help but feel puzzled.
The new division led by Lee Weiping was temporarily stationed at the frontline base. Logically speaking, since Wang Yi had come, he should have immediately come to welcome him.
"Instructor Li received news two hours ago that a small group of corpses was approaching from outside the city walls. He led the soldiers to stop the corpses."
Xu Liqiang said.
This was also Wang Yi's main task of sending troops here to stop the incoming corpses and ensure the safety of the workers who were working on the wall.
"Small corpses? "How many are there?" Wang Yi frowned and asked.
"About a thousand. They should be back soon." Xu Liqiang looked at his watch and said.
As expected, just as he finished speaking, the gate of the city wall was slowly opened by the soldiers. A team of vehicles quickly drove in.
The lead armoured vehicle stopped right in front of them.
"Bro Yi, you're back." Lee Weiping immediately got off the car and walked over when he saw Wang Yi.
"What's the situation outside?"
Wang Yi glanced at the tainted blood on the car and asked.
"The zombies in the Huhhot City have calmed down a lot these few days. It might be due to us stopping our attacks on the Huhhot City."
Lee Weiping said.
"That's good." Wang Yi nodded, looked around and said.
"Come with me, I have something to discuss with you."
"What's the matter?" Lee Weiping frowned. He had been at the forward base the past few days, so he didn't know much about what was happening at the gathering place.
The two of them walked to the side, and Wang Yi told Lee Weiping about the news from the capital.
"What!?" There's news from the capital! " As expected, Lee Weiping's eyes were filled with surprise.
"Yes, in two months, the capital will hold a meeting with the survivors. When that happens, we will invite all hundred thousand people to a gathering place. What do you think?" Wang Yi asked. Participating in this meeting was not a small matter. Wang Yi wanted to ask for more people's opinions.
"Go, leader, we must go to this meeting." Lee Weiping pondered for a moment and said.
"Why?" Wang Yi raised his eyebrows. Lee Weiping's determination surprised Wang Yi.
As for Lee Hu, Zhang Fei and even Yang Bing, they had to carefully consider before proposing their intentions to participate in this meeting. Even Lee Hu was opposed to participating in this meeting.
"The capital is, after all, the capital. It has a large population, and the equipment before the apocalypse is better preserved. Furthermore, its knowledge of the apocalypse is definitely greater than ours. More importantly …"
As Lee Weiping said this, his eyes flashed with a bright light.
"What's important?" Wang Yi asked.
"More importantly, we will be more familiar with the terrain around us than the capital!"
Lee Weiping said.
"Oh? Wang Yi raised his eyebrows and signaled for him to continue.
"Bro Yi, I'm not saying that the capital knows about the corpses around us, but rather, the gathering place for humans." Lee Weiping paused for a moment before continuing.2
The furthest we explored was the Tongshan City, which is only 200 kilometers away from where we are, and in the other directions, the furthest you guys went to is the Zhuozhou City. In the vicinity of our Grand Green Mountain gathering place, there are at least two other directions that we have not explored, but no one knows, that there is a mountain in the area around us, or perhaps in the vicinity of a city, which is a threat to us. And you said that the capital city used a transport plane to notify us, so they must have explored the entire Meng Province, or even a portion of the areas outside of the country.
"What do you mean?" A hint of thought flashed across Wang Yi's eyes. To be honest, Wang Yi had never thought of this question before.
"Leader, our goal is not to follow the management of the capital. As for the others, as long as they have a little bit of power, I believe that none of them want to listen to the commands of the capital, just like Lee Hengtai. Having a little strength, like ruling the other gathering places, like expanding our own gathering places, and we, I think we should also follow Lee Hengtai's lead."
Lee Weiping said slowly.
"You mean we should go to the capital, get news of the other gathering places, and then devour them?" Wang Yi said.
"Yes, if we want to grow stronger, if we want to survive in the apocalypse, then numbers are the key. We only have 500,000 survivors, and can't even handle the zombies in a city like Huhhot City. In the future, even if the zombies grow stronger with time, we will still have the same strength, so we are in danger."
Lee Weiping said worriedly.
"You're right." Wang Yi nodded and went to participate in the meeting in the capital. One of the most important goals of this meeting was to thoroughly understand the situation around Grand Green Mountain.
One must know that the distance that Grand Green Mountain had gathered to explore the surroundings was on average only a few dozen kilometers away, and they had only met a few places that were gathered.
"I understand what you mean. When we get to the capital, I'll bring you with me." Wang Yi said.
"Yes, leader." Lee Weiping nodded.
"Where are you going?"
At this moment, a petite figure suddenly scurried over. Wang Yi almost punched her.
"What are you doing here?" Wang Yi said helplessly as he looked at the agitated Wan'er.
"Of course I'm here to take a look. What secret are you all discussing behind my back?" Wan'er's big eyes revealed a cunning look.
"We …" Wang Yi hesitated for a moment. He didn't know whether to tell Wan'er or not. If she knew about this, she would definitely pester him to follow her.
