"...Furthermore, the most pressing issue is the lack of winter supplies. The weather is getting colder and colder, and we need to get those supplies as soon as possible..."

"Besides that, building houses and constructing traps at the lakeside camp also requires a large amount of building materials, and with the materials we currently have, we only have enough for less than a week..."

Jiang Wu nodded, looked at Wu Ming, and asked, "How's it going with the field operations battalion?"

Wu Ming said earnestly, "Chief, as you requested last time, we have recruited a reserve camp of 1,500 people, including 1,000 men and 500 women. They have been trained for four days and their bodies have been nourished with the meat of evolved beasts every day. We have also captured dozens of zombies to strengthen their will. Now all that is left is to take them out for actual combat."

After a pause, Wu Ming smiled and said, "There's another pleasant surprise. Because we have evolved beast meat to nourish our bodies every day, 16 evolved individuals have emerged from this group and have all been recruited as special forces members."

Peng Gang, sitting next to Wu Ming, had a rosy complexion.

As the commander of a reserve battalion of 1,500 men, he has been waking up laughing every day these past few days.

Before the apocalypse, he was just a small foreman; he never imagined he would have so many people under his command!

Even though he knew that once these people finished training, they would be divided into two battalions and a guard company.

But this also made him very happy.

Jiang Wu looked at Sheng Huaiqiang and asked, "Regarding the issues that Minister Li mentioned earlier, apart from the winter supplies which can be collected from prisons and villages that were previously attacked, have you gathered any intelligence on the other things?"

Sheng Huaiqiang nodded and said, "With Donghu Base as the center, the areas within a 100-kilometer radius, those easy-to-occupy places have already been thoroughly searched by the various forces in Donghu Base. Even more distant places have been searched countless times. I suggest that we directly attack those villages or towns with thousands or even tens of thousands of zombies."

Jiang Wu said calmly, "Villages and towns are too small, and the variety of supplies is too limited. We can take in small county towns with tens of thousands of people little by little, both to train our troops and to acquire enough supplies."

Sheng Huaiqiang was taken aback. He opened a large map, which was covered with many markings.
