Yuan Weijie wiped away his tears and choked out, "I lost my composure, Commander Peng."
Peng Gang laughed heartily and said, "It shows that General Yuan is a man of character. This is Fuxing Fortress, the front line for protecting Fuxing City. It's still several kilometers to go from here to Fuxing City. The real happiness will begin when we arrive in Fuxing City."
Looking at the towering city wall and the cannons and heavy machine guns on it, Yuan Weijie exclaimed, "Brigadier Peng, this city wall must be at least 15 meters high, right?"
Peng Gang nodded and smiled, "It's still being slowly increased, and we're preparing to add more protective netting. The initial plan is to make it 30 meters high, plus a 4-meter-high protective net. Even an M3 wouldn't be able to climb it then. Once this step is completed, we'll build another wall behind this level, planned to be 80 meters high, and finally combine the two."
After hearing Peng Gang's words, Yuan Weijie and several other senior executives next to him all gasped in shock.
An 80-meter-high city wall?
Judging by its length, it's over 400 meters long. Before the apocalypse, such a scale of infrastructure might not have been considered anything special.
But if we look at it now, it would definitely be considered a grand plan.
Peng Gang, observing the expressions of Yuan Weijie and the others, couldn't help but continue with a touch of pride: "This city will be our most important city, so naturally we must think about the future. The leader's idea is that this place must not only be able to block a sea of millions of zombies, but also those giant beasts. In addition to this city wall, we will also set up more giant traps. Once it is all completed, this city will be impregnable."
Yuan Weijie couldn't help but sigh, "The leader is the leader after all; he considers things more comprehensively."
Peng Gang sighed, "Unfortunately, we still lack large-caliber artillery. If we could deploy thousands more large-caliber artillery pieces on the city walls and around the perimeter, even if more zombies came, they would hardly pose a threat to us."
Yuan Weijie pondered for a moment and said seriously, "The military outposts in the country are relatively secretive. Places with large-caliber artillery and heavy weapons are of utmost importance. Ordinary people rarely know about them. Even though I was a major general before the apocalypse, I didn't know much. However, if we can get into the Ministry of National Defense in Beijing, we should be able to find those top-secret documents and know the specific deployment points of the troops across the country."
After a pause, Yuan Weijie continued, "Since Madam Bai possesses both a giant golden eagle mount and terrifying strength, she should be able to enter the Ministry of National Defense in the capital. I've been there a few times before and can provide more detailed blueprints, which would save a lot of search time."
Peng Gang's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but say, "Chief of Staff Li and the others have thought about this a long time ago, but they haven't been able to figure out the situation, so it's been delayed. If General Yuan knows about this, you can discuss it with Chief of Staff Li and the others!"
Yuan Weijie nodded and said, "No problem."
Four giant birds streaked across the sky, passing a hundred meters above Yuan Weijie and his companions.
Jiang Yanyan rode a giant black dog and sped forward.
The black python was not to be outdone and quickly snaked its way forward.
Even the five giant pangolins let out joyful hissing and ran around like children returning home from school.
However, they are too clumsy and much slower than giant wolves and pythons.
Meanwhile, the residents of Fuxing City at the fortress cheered even more enthusiastically.
They started discussing it amongst themselves.
"Little Black seems to have grown up again!"
"The five pangolins are still the cutest; they're so adorably clumsy!"
Yuan Weijie and the others couldn't help but laugh as they watched this harmonious scene.
They have never felt so at ease since the disaster struck.
When Yuan Weijie and his group arrived at the foot of the fortress, suddenly, thousands of reception staff dressed in red took out ceremonial cannons.
"Bang bang bang..."
Thousands of cannons roared, and countless colorful fireworks filled the sky, turning the entire Fuxing Fortress into a sea of confetti.
At the same time, as if rehearsed, tens of thousands of people shouted in unison again: "Welcome to Fuxing City, our family!"
This scene stunned all the survivors in the Survivors' Alliance.
Many people were moved to tears by this spectacular scene.
They've really made it home!
......
Fuxing City became extremely busy due to the arrival of countless supplies and more than 100,000 people.
Registration, housing allocation...
Everything is proceeding smoothly.
The main conference room of the Fuxingcheng government building.
Bai Feiming sat in the main seat, and Su Ziyu, Gan Wei, Li Qingxuan, and Nangong Wenyao sat quietly beside her.
The seats at the next lower level were occupied by Sun Dagui, Minister of Logistics; Chen Shu, Minister of Industry; Sheng Huaiqiang, Minister of Intelligence; Li Li, Minister of Agriculture; Ning Guohua, Minister of Engineering; Zhang Songyu, Minister of Education; Ding Chengde, Minister of Audit; Zhao Tian, Minister of Human Resources; and Wu Tiande, Minister of Discipline.
Only these high-ranking ministers were able to participate in this meeting.
Intelligence Minister Sheng Huaiqiang continued his report: "Ladies, we now have people in Fuxing City. Brigade Commander Peng told me that the survivor alliance has members, and 489 people have joined during the migration."
"If there are no numerical errors, the total population of our Fuxing City at this moment is [number] people, of which [number] are men aged 15 and above..."
After saying that, Sheng Huaiqiang glanced at Sun Dagui and continued, "Ladies, even if each person only consumes 1 jin of grain per day, such a large population would require more than 200 tons of grain per day. Even if we are not short of grain at the moment, such a consumption is still too terrifying."
"Our intelligence department has compiled a list of granary locations. The nearest large state-owned granary to our Fuxing City is the Guxiang Grain Storage Center, which is 200 kilometers away. According to the intelligence, it had 200,000 tons of grain stored there before the disaster."
"However, that granary is located in a county with a population of 300,000, and it passes through four other counties. It is estimated that 800,000 to 1 million zombies will need to be eliminated."
Bai Feiming nodded and said calmly, "Food is the most important thing for the people. Only the grain that ends up in our granary is real grain. Next, the focus of the Third Brigade of the Revival Army will be on recapturing this granary."
At this point, Bai Feiming looked at Chen Shu and asked, "Chen Shu, how many guns and ammunition can you produce in a month now?"
Chen Shu reported earnestly: "Madam Bai, we can currently produce about 2,500 Type 95 rifles and 8 million rounds of matching ammunition every month. In addition, we can also produce 3,000 rounds of various mortar and howitzer ammunition."
Bai Feiming shook her head and said, "This efficiency is not enough. We must do everything we can to increase production. Minister Sheng, you should also continue to look for other military factories or garrison locations."
"yes!"
