Wei Minglun glanced at the group of reserve battalion soldiers cleaning up the battlefield, and his pupils contracted.
He hadn't expected that so many fully armed soldiers would suddenly appear at the lakeside camp.
Numerous top-tier experts, along with nearly 2,000 fully armed soldiers.
Moreover, today's battle has won over many hearts, and thinking of this, Wei Minglun is almost driven mad with anger.
He couldn't help but say coldly, "Chief Jiang is truly cunning! If this continues, does he intend to become the master of the Donghu Base?"
Wu Ming said indifferently, "Our leader does not want to fight for power and profit; he only wants to bring hope to humanity!"
Changing his tone abruptly, Wu Ming said coldly, "If our leader wants to become the master of this base, you won't be able to withstand his offensive at all. Believe it or not, we don't even need our base's top experts to be deployed; our special forces can simply behead all of you! So, don't make malicious assumptions about our leader!"
Upon hearing these words, Wei Minglun and the others were speechless.
Li Zecheng said coldly, "Chief Wei, are you trying to sow discord between us again? Our chief has said not to play any underhanded tricks!"
Pointing to the nearly one hundred trucks belonging to the Huaxi Valley base behind them, Li Zecheng said coldly, "Our leader learned that most of the survivors in the base lacked winter supplies, so he specially arranged for so many of us to go out and risk being wiped out by zombies. We paid a huge price to collect these winter supplies, just so that everyone in the base wouldn't freeze to death this winter! With such a noble cause, you still dare to question our leader?!"
"Look at how well your leaders protect your elite and trusted men, while leaving ordinary soldiers to fight against powerful zombies on the city walls, yet our leaders can't help but intervene!"
"You all know in your hearts how many of those terrifying, fast-moving zombies our leader has killed! How many people would your forces have lost if our leader hadn't intervened! He's protecting your warriors! And yet you still dare to question our leader?!"
"Humanity is facing a life-or-death crisis! And you're still thinking about scheming against each other, caring about the power you hold in your hands! How dare you question a leader who cares about all of humanity!!"
As he spoke, Li Zecheng's eyes flashed with anger, and his tone grew louder and louder.
The people at the Donghu base all had different expressions.
Most people's eyes flashed with shame.
Only a very few people, such as Wei Minglun, still looked at Li Zecheng and Wu Ming with cold eyes.
Zhang Hua's eyes were complicated. He took a deep breath and smiled, "I wonder how your organization will handle the winter supplies you have collected. We can exchange various supplies for them."
Li Zecheng regained his composure and said calmly, "This requires our statistics department staff at the Huaxi Valley base to calculate and formulate a plan."
Zhang Hua nodded quickly and said with a smile, "Chief Jiang is truly righteous!"
Seeing the soldiers at the lakeside camp collecting the crystalline objects from the heads of zombies, Zhang Hua asked curiously, "Chief of Staff Li, what are these things used for? Our base has obtained quite a few of these things, but we just don't understand what they're for."
Li Zecheng did not answer directly, but said indifferently, "If you have these things, you can bring them to exchange for supplies with our base."
How do I redeem it?
Li Zecheng pondered for a moment and said, "I need to consult the leader about this. I will tell Chief Zhang later. If there is nothing else, we will take our leave."
Apart from Wei Minglun and a few others, Zhang Hua and the others all gave Li Zecheng and Wu Ming friendly smiles.
Before long, nearly a hundred trucks of various types slowly drove into the base.
All the trucks were completely covered up, and no one knew what was inside.
However, as Commander Wu at the lakeside camp had just said, the supplies were mainly for keeping warm, so they had no doubts at the moment.
They truly experienced Chief Jiang's benevolence and righteousness today.
The leader of a powerful force, all alone, protects the warriors of other forces and guards the entire nearly 300-meter-long city wall.
They themselves, however, hid inside the bunker for fear of casualties among their elite troops.
Such behavior made them feel ashamed, but also made them admire Chief Jiang's actions even more.
Especially the leaders of those smaller factions.
The way they looked at the convoy at the lakeside campsite became increasingly friendly.
As for the soldiers who remained on the city wall, they would wave their arms and smile brightly at Jiang Wu's massive convoy from time to time.
Inside a spacious Mengshi assault vehicle, Bai Feiming glanced at the soldiers on the city wall and smiled, "Brother Wu, this time we've conquered two towns and obtained a lot of supplies and building materials. We can build up the market in the camp, including the residential area of our base, and hire more survivors from the shantytowns."
"In addition, we also went to the prisons that had been recaptured before and other towns to collect winter supplies."
Jiang Wu asked in confusion, "Including today, you've only been out for three days, and you've already done so much? Isn't that place quite far away?"
Bai Feiming smiled and said, "The road has been cleared, and we all have vehicles, so we can drive very fast. Moreover, there are nearly 2,000 people with us this time, so we can move supplies very quickly."
Jiang Wu thought for a moment and nodded, saying, "You can arrange what you just mentioned. By the way, Fei Ming, should we arrange for someone to collect the zombie corpses and turn them into fertilizer to restore the land so that we can start planting next spring, or even build greenhouses now?"
Bai Feiming pondered for a moment, then smiled and said, "Brother Wu, you are the most righteous. I think we can collect the corpse fluid first. Anyway, it will take time for the corpse fluid to ferment with human excrement and become real fertilizer."
“Recently, we have been hiring as many poor people as possible from the shantytowns, giving them food, and also using winter supplies as wages to win their hearts and minds.”
After a pause, Bai Feiming said with a hint of mockery in her eyes, "At that time, Wei Minglun and his ilk will be no threat at all."
Jiang Wu agreed, saying, "Let's do it that way. The city gate area might be preparing to burn or bury the bodies. Send someone over to negotiate and have the bodies gathered and transported to the vicinity. Then dig a large pool next to the bodies and thoroughly compact the ground. If all else fails, we can use cement."
Bai Feiming nodded, took out her walkie-talkie, and repeated it to Li Zecheng.
At the base gate, Zhang Hua and other leaders were still arranging for their men to clean up the bodies.
Li Zecheng and his entourage left in a Mengshi assault vehicle and then returned.
Seeing Li Zecheng's car pull up beside him, Zhang Hua smiled and said, "Chief of Staff Li, is there anything else?"
