MTL - Doomsday Commander-Chapter 81 Fireworks in the world

  Chapter 81 Fireworks in the world

   Tang Zheng's jeep lined up, sitting in the car, Tang Zheng observed the surrounding situation.

   These soldiers of the alliance look like that.

  Their military uniforms are all uniform. Although they are not the style of the Imperial Royal Army, they all look quite new, unlike the shabby ones worn by people in other bases.

  The inspectors, some with pistols, and some with AKs on their backs.

  The people above the sentry tower even carried sniper rifles.

   "According to the imperial system, the Earl has a battalion of guards equipped with 98K or 56 punch weapons. The university's weapons are a bit out of line."

   "And many weapons look relatively new, where did they get them?"

   "These soldiers seem to have received military training. It seems that they have been taught by the instructors of the Royal Army, and they are still effective."

  The river under the bridge is not as clear as the Fengming River, which is probably the reason for the large number of people in the university base.

  The university base on the other side of the bridge has also been reinforced, with a height of about four meters.

   This height is enough to resist the existing zombies. As long as the zombies do not come in large numbers, the safety is basically worry-free.

  Apocalypse So far, zombies have not taken action on a large scale, so people's vigilance against zombies has dropped a lot.

  Tang Zheng planned ahead, when he built the city wall ahead of time, he always considered whether he was worrying too much, after all, building the ultimate city wall was very costly.

   But he persisted, just in case.

   After waiting for a while, Tang Zheng's car arrived.

  Ji Yuntian rolled down the car window, and a man with an AK on his back came over.

   "Is there a leader here?"

   "I am the leader." Tang Zheng said.

   "Where are you from?"

   "I come from the base of Chasing Light City."

   That person didn't ask where the City of Chasing Light is. After the end of the world, many base leaders named their bases very generously. In the first two cars, the leader's base was even called Salvation City.

   The more powerful the name, the less powerful it is.

  The guard didn't continue to ask too many questions, and checked the equipment of several people.

  Guns can be carried, but explosives cannot be carried, as the damage is too great.

   After confirming that there were no contraband in the car, the guard explained a few words.

"Let me talk about the process. You can only stay at the university base for one day. After entering the city, go to the registration office to register the number of armed forces, the number of survivors, the area, location, etc. of your base. After a while, tax officials will come to you It's verified and taxed there."

   "Registration is complete, you can go to the cafeteria of the headquarters building for lunch."

   "After lunch, Mr. Speaker will meet you in his reception room. After the meeting, the Speaker will take you to see the training situation of the alliance troops."

   "After the training, there are dinner arrangements. You can eat here or not, but you can't stay here. You must leave after dinner at most."

"During this process, you are not allowed to harass the survivors in the base, and you are not allowed to make trouble in the base. We have set up a Public Security Bureau here. If you make trouble, you will be arrested by the Public Security Bureau and put in jail. Do you understand? ?”

   Tang Zheng nodded after listening, indicating that everything was clear.

   "Well, as long as you abide by the rules, you will have a pleasant day here. After all, in this world, it is not easy to come to a place with so many people. Our base has a population of nearly 70,000."

   After finishing speaking, the guard gave Tang Zheng several people each a pass, and then moved the barbed wire barricade to let Tang Zheng and the others pass.

   Tang Zheng and the others hung the pass on their chests, and the vehicle drove over the bridge.

  After crossing the bridge, we soon came to the south gate of the university base.

  The guard here glanced at the pass sign, and then opened the gate to let them pass.

  The vehicle continued to drive, and after passing through the gate, entered the University City base.

  Entering here, Tang Zheng felt a long-lost breath of human fireworks.

  The streets are crowded with people, and the excitement is stronger than that of ordinary towns.

  Someone set up a stall on the side of the road to fry fried dough sticks, make buns, and roll noodles.

  Someone is setting up a stall to sell things, and the products they sell are even more varied.

   Necessities such as food and fuel are relatively rare, and most of them are daily necessities.

   There are clothes, there are underwear, there are pots and pans, and there are cosmetics.

"Come here! Smokers, come and have a look. There are all kinds of cigarettes here. They are only exchanged for food. For cigarettes below ten yuan, a pack of half a catty of rice, for a pack of ten yuan or more per catty of rice, thirty More than 1 yuan, a bag of two catties of rice, if there is no rice, flour can also be traded."

   "Alcohol is sold, liquor and beer are available, ice and snow beer in 500ml bottles, and Niu San Baijiu are also available. In exchange for food and anti-inflammatory drugs, one catty of wine is exchanged for half a catty of food or five anti-inflammatory drugs."

   "Why do you say that beer is as expensive as liquor? It's because beer has a short shelf life. If you don't drink it, you won't be able to drink it in the future. Rare things are more expensive."

"Several brothers, I see that you are the leaders of the base from outside. Take a look at the good products here. I have all kinds of underwear, hobby items, and this kind of essential oil. Anyone who uses it will agree. Your women are satisfied, but I only exchange bullets here, try it.”

   "The freshly fried fried dough sticks are hot! You can eat three sticks with half a catty of coarse grains."

   "Bun! The only meat bun in the east area of ​​the base, you will regret it if you don't try it."

"You said my buns are frozen meat? Nonsense, where is there any fresh meat now? I can get frozen meat in the event of a power outage, that's my skill. The meat of the mutant beast is not frozen, can you get it? "

"Several bosses have worked hard all the way, why don't you come to the small shop to take a break? We have very good welcome girls here, and they were all decent girls from a good family in the past. As long as you need it, you can change into your old clothes at any time, so that you can relive your old dreams. Please help, they are all poor people, and they only need two catties of food to experience it.”

  The cries on the streets are endless, and there are many differences from the past.

  Some things that were banned by the empire in the past, but no one cares about them here.

  Although the order looked chaotic, it made Tang Zheng feel very rare.

  In the last days, to have a safe place for people to live and settle down is the greatest ideal in the hearts of most survivors.

  Looking from a distance, some teaching buildings have been remodeled and transformed into small rooms, which are the residences of these survivors.

  Tang Zheng and the others did not stay here, they drove through the noisy street, and followed the signs to the registration office.

   There are a lot of vehicles parked here at the registration office, almost all of which are off-road vehicles.

   Parked the vehicle here, Tang Zheng and the others got out of the car and entered the grade office.

The people in the hall were different from the sallow and thin survivors outside. They all looked tougher. Most of them were carrying guns, and some even wrapped bullet chains around their bodies. .

   Tang Zheng was a little strange. Could it be that there are so many base leaders near the Northern Territory?

  Guo Yun listened for a while, then said to Tang Zheng: "General, most of the people here are not the leaders of the base, but a team of adventurers."

   "Oh! Adventurer team? What is that?"

   "This is a unique occupation in the last days, because the major bases often assign the task of collecting materials due to lack of manpower. At this time, some adventurer teams came into being."

"These people are basically old men, all of their family members are dead, and they used to have a little strength, or their health is better, or they can play with guns, so they often become adventurers. They go out to collect supplies, and they won't be able to use them. sell them to the base in exchange for firearms, vehicles, fuel, housing, etc., so that they have jobs and the people inside the base don’t have to go out to take risks, killing two birds with one stone.”

   "These adventurers also need to register. Every time they collect materials, they will be sent back here and reported here, so it seems crowded here."

   Tang Zheng looked at it silently: "This must be a high-risk occupation."

   "That's right, most adventurers are living a precarious life, but they have nothing to worry about, and life and death are indifferent. According to my observation, some of the stronger adventurers here have become mutants."

  Looking at these adventurers, Tang Zheng felt that these people might also be some unstable factors in the future.

  But there are survival rules in the last days, and this kind of occupation will be indispensable in the future.

  The outline of my own city has been established, and it is estimated that it will develop, and there will be many such people.

   Fortunately, at the leader's registration window, he was not with those adventurers, and soon it was Tang Zheng and others' turn.

"Name."

   "Tang Zheng."

   "Base armed force, population?"

   "The armed force is three hundred, and the population is less than one hundred."

   Tang Zheng’s base actually doesn’t have a single survivor right now, but when the people from Tailai Town come back in a few days, there should be dozens of people, so he said less than a hundred.

  The people registered inside looked at Tang Zheng in surprise: "Your development is a bit abnormal. Don't you need people to do your usual work? Are people who don't do basic work capable of paying taxes?"

   Tang Zheng smiled a little: "In the initial stage, it's a bit biased."

   "Okay, what's the name of the base? Where is the location?"

   "It's called the City of Chasing Light, and the location is there."

  The people inside handed Tang Zheng a map, and Tang Zheng pointed it out.

The person who registered took a look: "It's remote enough, it's almost moved to the mountains, there is no road, and our tax collectors may come to you later. Take advantage of this time to collect more For food and fuel, those who avoid taxation have gone, and you can’t pay the tax.”

   "Okay, I will as soon as possible."

   "Okay, follow this road, the tallest building is the headquarters, and the third floor is the cafeteria, you go to have lunch, someone will take you to see the speaker."

  Tang Zheng took Ji Yuntian and Guo Yun and left the crowded registration office.

  Out of here, there is a tall building in the front section. Stalls are prohibited on that section of the road, and it looks much quieter.

   Moreover, Tang Zheng discovered that the river that flows out of the base flows right under this building.

   "Let's go, go and taste the food here, and then go to meet the chairman of the alliance headquarters. I have a hunch that today will not be in vain."
