That night.
Three hundred meters underground, Anshi Military Base.
General Qian Qingyu and General Sima Nan are meeting to discuss various matters related to dealing with the cold wave.
Behind General Lin Dong Qian Qingyu, his posture was straight.
The think tanks of both armies gathered together and expressed their opinions.
"This cold wave is coming with such force that in less than three days, the temperature has dropped to -65 degrees Celsius, and it's still dropping. If it continues like this, how can people survive?"
General Qian Qingyu was worried and his hair was gray.
The end of the world is full of murderous intent. After experiencing the scorching heat and the explosion in Hai City, I moved to An City and thought it would be more stable, but the severe cold came immediately!
It's just like a child playing with ants, first burning them with fire, then pouring water on them, and then clapping and laughing with joy as he watches the ants struggle.
However, the ants here are humans.
The soldiers he brought with him were strong and could withstand the cold wave, but what about the civilians?
This is the most serious thing facing him!
"The cold is one thing, but the ice and snow on the ground won't melt, so crops can't grow. I'm afraid the food we brought won't last long. Even if they don't freeze to death, they'll starve to death!"
When Qian Qingyu thought about this, he was so worried that he couldn't sleep. His whole body felt tense and his heart ached.
Across from him, General Sima Nan was younger, with a square face and thick eyebrows. He said, "I'm afraid the temperature will continue to drop. I've already moved some people underground, and we're working hard to dig underground space to move more people in."
"Living underground?"
Qian Qingyu's eyes lit up, "That's a good idea!"
But his expression immediately darkened.
"It's too late to start digging a tunnel now. Time is too short."
Sima Nan said, "It is difficult, but the global temperature has reached polar regions, and the Earth has become a completely frozen ball. Living underground is the only option for future humans."
"How about this, I'll lend you a 100,000 yuan excavator, and you guys just do your best to dig out the underground space and transfer the people."
Qian Qingyu knew this very well. If the temperature continued to drop, humans would have to hide underground to survive and use geothermal heat to resist the cold.
"That's the best way... Thank you, old friend."
Sima Nan said sternly, "Why should we say such awkward things to each other? I still remember what we said when we joined the army."
Qian Qingyu was stunned and nodded.
“I dare not forget it at any time.”
He took a deep breath and said loudly:
"With my body, I will defend the borders of my country; with my soul, I will protect the people of my country!"
Sima Nan's eyes trembled, and he also raised his voice:
"With my body, I will defend the borders of my country; with my soul, I will protect the people of my country!"
Some of the soldiers present had already been dejected by the harsh reality. Upon hearing this, they stood up one by one and said in unison:
"With my body, I will defend the borders of my country; with my soul, I will protect the people of my country!"
This is their mission!
Sima Nan said: "Now, we have reached the most difficult time. No matter what, we must hold on. If we fall, who will our people rely on?"
General Qian Qingyu knew it very well, but he had a lot of things to deal with.
These issues are theoretically impossible to solve at present.
"Sima, I'm here this time to ask you something important... Do you have enough food?"
General Sima Nan was also in a dilemma.
"The situation here isn't ideal either, and we don't have much food left."
General Qian said, "I don't want more. Can you spare 10 million tons?"
General Sima Nan shook his head. "Old friend, it's not that I don't want to help you, but I really can't. We only have enough food to last for half a year."
"But you see, the snow is falling with no sign of stopping. I can't just sit there and watch the people under my jurisdiction starve to death."
"Let's put it this way. Five million tons of grain is the most I can give out. Any more than that won't work."
General Qian Qingyu nodded heavily and shook General Sima Nan's hand: "Thank you, old friend."
General Sima Nan said hurriedly, "I told you, no need to thank me. I can't help much either. We really need to figure out a way to provide food!"
"I wonder if someone with plant-related abilities can be born to produce food seeds that can withstand the severe cold."
Sima Nan's words were originally unintentional, but they made General Qian Qingyu's eyes light up.
"Her! I forgot about her!"
"If I were to swallow my pride and ask her for help, with her abilities, it shouldn't be difficult for her to research such a seed!"
He stood up instantly.
Sima Nan was just sighing, but seeing his old friend's reaction, it seemed like there was a chance?
He also became excited:
"Who are you talking about? Well, you're being unkind. You don't even introduce such a super talent to me!"
Lin Dong, who was standing behind Qian Qingyu, suddenly recalled the scene where he was used as bait to lure zombies and was gently cared for by the plants. His face twitched involuntarily.
General Qian apologized, "Old buddy, it's not that I don't want to tell you, but... I can't disclose her information without her consent."
"But I'll ask for you after I see her."
Sima Nan was filled with surprise. "Who on earth is she? Why is she making you so cautious? Could it be that she possesses some power that you have to be wary of? An S-class psychic?"
After asking this question, he was also amazed. "S-level esper is a super-powerful being that theoretically exists. If a plant-based esper of this level appeared and developed such a seed, it wouldn't be surprising."
