MTL - Doomsday Commander-Chapter 364 Southern Beacon

Chapter 364 Southern War

 After the first anniversary of the end of the world, Han Yue entered a short period of peace.

After seeing the military power of the Light Chasing Army, countries all over the world also stopped their activities and began to develop their own strength.

Not only Tang Zheng needs this peaceful period, everyone also needs a peaceful period to develop.

 The length of this period of peace depends on how each country develops.

 After the military parade, Tang Zheng immediately sent troops into the Bulk Province and incorporated the base cities that used to belong to Dayan into the territory one by one.

Tang Zheng has already discussed with Li Wuyou where to recover. As the victor this time, they have the right to choose freely.

 The Inner Bay Area, Huijing Base City, Qianjiang Province, and the territory of the former Gaoling Empire all belong to Li Wuyou.

 Bulk Province, Dongyue Province, these two coastal provinces belong to Tang Zheng.

 In fact, according to Li Wuyou's consciousness, she only needs the inner bay side, which has an outlet to the sea.

But Tang Zheng still asked Li Wuyou to occupy more land. After all, she still represents Han Yue orthodoxy.

Furthermore, the Light Chasing Army currently has insufficient troops. It would be inappropriate to occupy too many places without troops to guard them. These two provinces are large enough, and they are both coastal, and they can be connected to the Didicui Island.

 After occupying these two provinces, Tang Zheng's territory directly exceeded three million square kilometers and was close to four million square kilometers. One task was directly completed.

After Tang Zheng sent some small naval forces to occupy several small islands, his sea area also reached five million square kilometers.

 Another mission was completed. What Tang Zheng lacked now was the number of zombie kills, two special units, and an island with an area of ​​more than 100 square kilometers.

Tang Zheng originally planned to attack Orochi and completely wipe out the country.

But Orochi also saw that the situation was not right. Except for Lianzhou, all the troops retreated back to the mainland to strengthen defense. Tang Zheng was also developing the economy now. Seeing that Orochi was not easy to fight, he temporarily gave up this plan. Intend.

 In the period that followed, Tang Zheng began a new round of busy work.

 He wants to integrate the forces within the territory, and more importantly, integrate resources.

Although he has 200 million in funds on hand, these funds need to be used to upgrade the division commander. He also needs more funds as a reserve after the upgrade. It is best that this number exceeds 300 million, otherwise the name of the division commander will be empty. A head without troops is useless.

 There are also some other resources that Tang Zheng needs to collect.

 Among them, oil and copper are two that Tang Zheng urgently needs.

The tanks of the Chasing Light Army need diesel, and warships such as aircraft carriers need heavy fuel. It has been so long since the end of the world, and most of the gas stations that can be collected have been taken over. There is no external fuel supply. Now, fuel has appeared in the Chasing Light Army. crisis.

  Hanyue itself is not a big oil country. There are not many oil fields that can be collected. Even if there are, there are not many reserves. In the past, it relied heavily on imports.

Copper is used by arsenals to produce bullets, and the demand for this is also very high. Now the Light Chasing Army is constantly killing zombies, and the daily consumption of bullets is also quite large.

 Although the bullet casings can be recovered, many bullets cannot be recovered during combat, and copper is often used in artillery shells, bombs, rockets, mines, etc. Now the copper in Tang Zheng's hand is decreasing every day.

It's just that if you don't rely on imports, there is really no good way to get this kind of thing at the moment, so Tang Zheng can only do his best to support it.

 After occupying Bulk Province and Dongyue Province, Tang Zheng became busy here.

 The engineering troops all went into battle and began to build bridges and build roads.

This is a developed province, and the original road infrastructure is very good, but some places have been damaged. It is only repaired now, which is not too difficult.

 Among them are Wudu Base City in Bulk Province and Qizhong Base City in Dongyue Province. Tang Zheng also connected railways to these two places.

 Because of the good relationship with Li Wuyou, the railway line also passed through Yuanjing, connecting this area together.

 After the railway was connected, a huge area starting from the east coast in the east and reaching the City of Chasing Light in the west was merged into one.

Although this is far less than the territory of Han Yue at its peak, the combined forces of Tang Zheng and Li Wuyou have already formed a very huge territory.

Li Wuyou is also as busy as Tang Zheng during this period. Her territory is larger. Among them, Yuanjing, Haiwei City, Huijing, and Quanting are all large base cities, and the population under her command is also explosive. With the growth of his life, there were so many things going on every day. He and Tang Zheng were basically busy with their own affairs and had no time to meet each other.

Only in the dead of night, they would occasionally talk on the phone to share their innermost thoughts and whispers.

 By mid-August, Tang Zheng had good news.

 Scientific Research Institute discovered a gold mine in Dongyue Province.

This used to be a gold mining area, but it was exhausted after being mined, and there was no more gold, so it was abandoned.

 But the Light Chasing Army explored it.

 Speaking of which, it was because of a new military unit. During this period, Guo Yun once again developed a new high-tech unit, the rocket pilot.

Rocket pilots are soldiers who wear special combat uniforms, carry individual rocket boosters on their backs, and fly in the air in this way.

Tang Zheng had seen this unit in a game, but he didn't expect it to appear in reality.

The combat effectiveness of this unit in the game is good, but it is not that easy to use in reality. After all, the soldiers flying in the air look like a living target, and you cannot fly as fast as an airplane, so it is not very useful in actual combat. big.

However, this unit of arms Guo Yun did not develop for frontal battlefields, but to perform some tasks behind enemy lines. After all, one person's target is very small and cannot be detected by radar. In some cases, it may have unexpected effects, so it was developed.

 The first rocket pilot came out for a test flight and discovered a gold mine in the mountains and forests.

　　After the first anniversary of the end of the world, the weather in the world changed. The clouds that were omnipresent in the past began to dissipate from this day, and the visibility was greatly improved. When the rocket pilots were flying at low altitude, they discovered open-pit gold mines.

This discovery made Tang Zheng very excited, and he immediately rushed to Dongyue Province. After determining the location of the gold mine, he built a small base here. The base does not accept survivors, it is used for mining.

Tang Zheng's system has a mine building. He also has a coal mine in the northern region, and he built a gold mine directly in the base.

 The mine comes with its own miners and mining vehicles, and it was put into operation immediately after purchase.

Tang Zheng stayed here for a whole day. Finally, he checked the mining income and found that it could provide him with about 80,000 to 100,000 gold every day.

 This number is actually quite large. One month’s mining income is almost equivalent to building a county town.

It's just that Tang Zheng now earns more from fighting zombies in the army, so he feels that this income is not very much.

Three days ago, Tang Zheng's troops had killed 200 million zombies, and nearly half of the area in Sanjiang Base had been cleared.

Without the command of the Zombie King, no matter how big the city is, no matter how many zombies there are, one day they will be wiped out.

With such a long period of income, Tang Zheng's funds in hand have exceeded 300 million.

It’s just that Tang Zheng feels that it’s not enough, and he still needs to find more sources of funds.

The discovery of this gold mine made him feel that it was not enough. He needed to find more gold mines.

 Throughout August, the Light Chasing Army searched for ores in various places, including gold mines, silver mines, and gem mines.

By the end of August, Tang Zheng discovered three gold mines and two silver mines within his territory, which could provide him with approximately 400,000 yuan a day.

But Tang Zheng still felt that it was not enough. Four hundred thousand dollars seemed like a lot of money, but once the war started, the money flowed out like running water, and tens of millions of dollars could be easily spent.

Now he is not far away from being upgraded to division commander. He only needs a high-tech unit and an island to upgrade.

 But what about after the upgrade?

 Funds, oil, and copper, these three issues are the main problems that trouble him.

Just when Tang Zheng was worrying about these things, he received a call from Li Wuyou.

 In the past, Tang Zheng and Li Wuyou talked on the phone at night. It was rare for her to call during the day, so Tang Zheng knew something was going on.

Sure enough, after Li Wuyou had a few words with Tang Zheng, he told Tang Zheng some news.

 “Brother Zheng, fighting is breaking out in the southwest region.”

Tang Zheng has been very busy these days, and he really didn’t know the news. Hearing this, he immediately asked, “Where did the fight start?”

“The original Second Royal Army, the Plateau Empire established by Duan Yunxiang, started fighting with the Southern Peninsula Alliance.”

Tang Zheng immediately recalled the situation in the Plateau Empire.

Some time ago, everyone thought that Tang Zheng was dead and declared war on the Light Chasing Army, including the Southwest Second Army.

 Duan Yunxiang also united with a southern city-state at that time and asked the Light-Zhuang Army to withdraw from the western Sichuan area and hand over western Sichuan to him.

 Later Tang Zheng came to life, and Duan Yunxiang deflated back without even farting, acting very cowardly.

At this time, everyone is engaged in an arms race, but the military industry base in the southwest is weak and cannot keep up with the times.

Tang Zheng cannot spare any time now. If he does, he plans to march into the southwest if he has the opportunity.

 Unexpectedly, Duan Yunxiang would start a fight with the Southern Peninsula Alliance.

 The so-called Southern Peninsula Alliance is a peninsula area in the southern part of the Eastern Continent.

The main countries in this region include Pyu, Siam, Da Nan, etc., and they are not big countries. However, during the Han Yue Civil War, they also realized that they could not fight alone, so they chose to unite. It is said that they also engaged in the integration of the peninsula. ation and has the tendency to become a great country.

 But why did they go to war with the Plateau Empire?

 Li Wuyou gave an explanation.

“It is said that because of the population, people from the Piao Kingdom came to the plateau border area to arrest people and went back to conduct experiments on armed zombies. Duan Yunxiang couldn’t stand this kind of thing, so he had a conflict with them.”

"The Peninsula Alliance was well prepared, and even armed zombies went into battle. After two consecutive large-scale battles, Duan Yunxiang's troops suffered heavy losses. They could no longer hold on, so they asked me for help. Otherwise, such a long distance, I won’t know either.”

 In Tang Zheng's mind, the situation about the Southern Peninsula began to appear.

There are two specialties there that are world-famous.

 One is a poison.

 One is jade.

 After the end of the world, the royal family there also exists in name only. The current situation is basically controlled by some big drug lords and the Jade Group.

And now there are armed zombies appearing. It seems that behind this conflict, it will definitely not be simple.

 “Emerald..”

Li Wuyou was still introducing the situation, and Tang Zheng already had a plan in mind.
