Chapter 146: Construction of a new base begins
Lu Ming snickered and climbed onto his back, hugged his neck and said happily: "It's good to have a boyfriend. Why didn't you get together with me earlier?"
Gu Chao chuckled softly, hugged her legs tightly and stood up, "My fault, I should have told you earlier. But don't some people still foolishly say they don't know what love is? If I confessed at that time, wouldn't you be scared away?"
"...How will you know if you don't try? Humph, I don't care, I'll just blame you anyway."
Lu Ming started to act like a spoiled child, resting her head on his shoulder and speaking to him.
However, Gu Chao didn't hear a word he said. He only felt Lu Ming's warm breath brushing against his ears and neck, and a strange feeling rushed to his head.
His blood boiled and his earlobes turned red.
"Hey, why are your ears red?" However, Lu Ming had no idea, and even stretched out his evil little hand and gently touched his red ears.
Gu Chao's breathing suddenly became disordered, his eyes became deep, and his pace quickened.
When he arrived at the door, he used airflow to turn the handle, walked in, then closed the door with airflow and put Luming down.
However, just when Lu Ming wanted to go in, Gu Chao suddenly turned around, grabbed her shoulders, and pressed her against the door.
"You do... well..."
Gu Chao lowered his head and kissed Lu Ming's little mouth. She was slightly startled, then obediently closed her eyes.
But this time he was not satisfied with her tender lips. Instead, he stretched out his big hand, grabbed the back of her head, pressed her towards him, then pried open her lips and teeth and went straight in.
A wonderful feeling.
His lips and tongue seemed to be poisonous, gradually confusing Lu Ming's mind. She slowly relaxed, slightly opened her red lips, and let him hold her small tongue and suck it gently.
She gradually lost her strength, her arms involuntarily wrapped around his neck, and she tilted her head slightly.
He kissed her deeper and deeper, and both of them began to breathe faster, their breaths blending together, lingering and passionate.
Lu Ming felt that he was running out of breath and pushed him gently.
Gu Chao noticed it and immediately let her go, resting his forehead on her shoulder and breathing slightly.
After a moment, he calmed down, looked at Luming who was still panting, and asked softly, "Do you like it?"
Lu Ming blushed deeply and uttered a small "hmm".
Gu Chao smiled, kissed her cheek, and pulled her inside.
The outermost part of the suite is the living room, the large room on the left is the conference room, and on the right are three separate rooms, each with its own bathroom.
Lu Ming refilled the hotel's pool with water, so the entire hotel could use water normally, but there was no hot water.
The two of them walked into two different rooms, washed up, said good night to each other at the door, and then went back to their rooms to rest.
However, whether they have all fallen asleep is hard to say...
-----------------
The next day.
All the members of Chaoyang Brigade gathered in the conference room on the second floor of the base.
"At present, our most important task is to clear the zombies and ensure the accommodation and normal life of the remaining survivors. The ice and snow period is about to arrive, and our task is very arduous. I hope everyone can manage the survivors under their command well and work together to build our Chaoyang base."
"Next, let me talk about the task allocation."
Gu Chao first arranged for half of the psychics and two hundred guards to join the zombie clearing team. They had already eliminated four-fifths of the zombies in City C before. There were not many left, and most of them were low-level. It was a good opportunity to train new guards and psychics. This task was assigned to Wan Zhengqi.
Then there is the issue of defense outside the base.
After discussion, they decided to divide the entire city of C into four areas, with the central area in the middle, which can accommodate up to 200,000 people, more than enough to accommodate the current tens of thousands of survivors.
The next three areas will continue to expand outward to accommodate more survivors, but this is not within their consideration now.
Therefore, the first thing to build is a wall that can resist the zombie tide and foreign invasion.
Gu Chao allocated 1,600 young and middle-aged male survivors, with each group of 160 people, to start construction simultaneously from different directions to save time.
This part was given to Zhang Yan, who had construction experience. He was also an earth element and could help.
With the wall, there is a need for teams to patrol, scout, and maintain order. The other half of the psychics and most of the remaining guards are mixed into a guard team, which rotates in three shifts a day and is responsible for guarding the city entrance and maintaining order within the city.
This part was given to Wu Kai and Peng Shu.
Then there is the issue of where the survivors will be accommodated.
Most of the people today have experience in moving in, so they just need to follow the procedures and slowly start cleaning up the surrounding area.
Finally, there is the very important issue of construction.
How can a city quickly get back into operation from a state of desolation?
You need people and money.
Now, we need people and supplies.
Then implement the four connections: access to roads, water, electricity, and communications.
They arranged people to check the vehicles blocking the main access roads, record the usable ones, move away the scrapped ones, and then clear away all kinds of broken limbs on the road, burn the zombie corpses and human corpses separately, and then clean up the garbage and wash away the blood and stains.
There are only about twenty water systems in the entire base, and only a few of them were used this time, which is not enough for drinking water and daily use for everyone in the base. So Datou still needs Luming. She will go to a reopened water plant to store water every day to ensure that a limited amount can be supplied to the survivors every day.
Electricity is a problem that cannot be solved for the time being. Except for the central building which has its own wind power generation device to ensure daily office needs, the rest of the place still needs to rely on traditional methods such as candles and oil lamps for lighting. The more critical places, such as the team that eliminates zombies and the team that builds the wall, are equipped with generators or high-power spotlights to ensure their safety because of the long working hours.
As for communication, since the communication base stations are all intact, but there are not many people who can operate them and there is not enough electricity, the current notifications still mainly rely on broadcasting and the improved walkie-talkies made by Li Hangyuan.
All these aspects have been taken care of, and the most important thing left is the supplies.
The food distributed to the survivors now is partly the remaining supplies of the convoy, and partly the grain, biscuits, bread, canned goods and other food products stored in Luming's space. When there are more people, Luming will also use the plants and animals grown and raised in the space. Although there are a lot, it is not enough to supply so many people in the short term, but it is not possible in the long term.
Therefore, a material collection team was set up as usual. They not only searched for food, daily necessities and fuel in City C, but also continued to search in other places when there were more people.
After the division of labor was completed, everyone received their own tasks and started to act.
The construction of Chaoyang Base began.
