Wasteland Commander

Chapter 96 The Weaknesses of the Dawn Army

Ye Fan is currently building a base.

Following the advice of logistics officer Zhang Kunlin, he extended the walls on both sides of the base for one kilometer.

 The fence at the back is no longer needed, only the front and side walls are still needed, which is still four square kilometers.

These four square kilometers are the main urban area of ​​Shuguang Army Base.

The next four square kilometers belong to the core area and outsiders are prohibited from entering.

 The six-kilometer-long wall has been put in place.

There are five gates in total here.

Three gates on the front, including the water gate, and two gates on the side.

 There are more doors, and troops can be sent out to counterattack more quickly.

After the walls and city gates were built, Ye Fan built an independent courtyard inside and surrounded it with a three-meter wall. This was the residence he left to his parents and sister.

 Several watchtowers were built at the corners of the walls, the main entrance, and the water gate.

Above the main entrance, the flag of the Dawn Army was planted.

The huge flag, several meters long and wide, fluttered in the wind, clattering in the air, making it particularly eye-catching.

 After the construction of the four sentry towers was completed, Ye Fan's entire battalion had reached full strength.

When Nana reminded him that the number of red alert units had reached the upper limit, Ye Fan stopped the construction process.

This time the main base is really basically formed.

 It covers an area of ​​eight kilometers and is divided into two parts: the main urban area in the front and the core area in the back.

Of course, there is about ten square kilometers of land in front of the main city, which is the reserved outer city area.

However, there is no need to build walls and watchtowers here. From now on, this will be an area for ordinary survivors to move around, and they can build it by themselves.

 Looking at this heavily guarded base, Ye Fan felt a sense of pride in his heart.

 From now on, this is my home.

This base can't be said otherwise. A zombie group of less than 100,000 people can't even think of posing a threat to this base.

While patrolling the city wall, vehicles roared outside, and John's platoon returned.

The gate of the base opened, and a jeep and a dozen large trucks drove in.

 After rushing through the main city area, the gate of the core base opened again, and they entered the inner level.

The soldiers got off the vehicle and quickly unloaded the goods. Zhang Kunlin directed the engineers to collect some materials into the material recycling station.

Some supplies are piled up in a corner of the inner floor. There is no military warehouse now, so they can only be stacked in the open. It will be great when there is a warehouse, and no matter how much supplies are stored, they can be accommodated.

 Most of the materials this time are food and some are fuel. They are collected from taxes. Ordinary survivor forces cannot get good things.

 But these things are exactly what Ye Fan is in urgent need of.

With these grains in hand, there is no problem in holding on for another two months.

 At this time, the soldiers at the radar station shared the radar images with Ye Fan's portable radar.

At the riverside where he went yesterday, two blue light spots were driving a jeep up the river and were almost here.

 These are the two people Zhongjing deliberately let go, just to let them find here.

The city gate has made arrangements, and I hope these two people can take the bait.

　　************

Wang Dashan and Qingqubi got back into their broken jeep, pulled the dead driver out, and drove the car themselves. After a long time of fire, they started up the jeep and went up the river crookedly.

Originally, they were following the ruts to see where the foreign soldiers drove the heavy trucks, but the farther they went, the more chaotic the ruts became.

There seemed to be countless vehicles passing by here, and there were messy ruts everywhere, making it impossible to follow.

"It seems that we are close to the base of the Dawn Army. Judging from the ruts, we should not be far away."

The two men were driving a broken car along the bumpy road, and Wang Dashan had nowhere to vent his anger.

 He did not dare to show off his power against those foreigners, but the Shuguang Army should be from the Qin and Han Dynasties.

 Since you have a foothold here, you should know about the Survivor League.

As long as the other party knows about it, they should be afraid. If they are afraid, it will be easy to deal with.

 He has already thought about how to blackmail and intimidate the Dawn Army, because this is his old profession.

No one wants to pay taxes these days, but in the end, everyone will be honest.

 The car drove for another ten minutes, turned a corner, and finally saw the Dawn Army base.

 The car stopped two kilometers away from the base, and both of them were a little dumbfounded.

They thought that the Dawn Army was nothing more than a gathering point for survivors. It would be good to occupy a certain place, strengthen some walls, and pile up some sandbags.

But they never expected that they would see such a big city in front of them!

 At noon, the red sun is shining.

The five-meter-high wall has crenellations on it, making it difficult to tell whether it is a wall or a city wall.

 When the sun fell, the city wall was somewhat reflective, and it looked like it was made of metal.

The towering sentry tower stands behind the city wall, and soldiers patrolling can even be seen in the distance.

The metal door is closed tightly. It looks majestic and majestic from a distance, making people afraid to approach it.

 The Seven Star River flows out of the city. There is also a huge city gate there, and a huge sluice separates the river. The inside and the outside are already two worlds.

Wang Dashan opened his mouth wide and did not close it for a long time.

 If he remembered correctly, he had been here two months ago.

 The outbreak of the apocalypse has only been approaching a month ago.

 When did this big city appear?

 Is the current construction speed so fast?

Not to mention the Burning Legion, there is no such big city. Even Zhang Zhiguo, the commander-in-chief of the Huacheng Survivor Alliance and the North-watching Army, cannot reach this level.

With green mountains at its back and a river within the city, it is simply like heaven!

If you can stay here, why are you afraid of zombies?

He was stunned, and the man with the hooked nose also stayed for a long time.

 Finally he turned around and looked at Wang Dashan.

“Da Shan, why do I think this Dawn Army looks like a regular army?”

Wang Dashan picked up the telescope on the car and looked at it for a long time. Suddenly he pointed at the big flag above the city gate: "Eagle, look at that flag. I haven't seen it before. It shouldn't be a regular army."

The man with the hooked nose was called an eagle. After taking a closer look through the binoculars, he relaxed a lot and said, "Oh, it's good that he's not a regular army. I'm scared to death."

Eagle patted his chest, and then said hesitantly: "Then let's go there?"

Wang Dashan’s face muscles twitched twice: “I’ll think about it again.”

 After thinking about it for a while, he decided that he still wanted to go.

 At first I thought that the Dawn Army was just a small force that could be controlled by oneself, but now it seems that it is not that simple.

 With such a big city, it is obvious that the Dawn Army already has the strength to rival the Burning Legion.

Now he can no longer talk about being a Survivor Alliance tax officer. He also knows that his identity is unpopular. If he angers the Dawn Army, he will easily get into trouble.

 The loss of supplies is now a small matter. The big thing is to investigate clearly the details and weaknesses of the Dawn Army.

As long as some clues are found about this matter, he will be able to explain it after he returns.

He held a telescope and carefully inspected the Dawn Army's camp.

 Soon, he discovered his first weakness.

 “Eagle, from now on I tell you to record.”

 “Okay, you say.”

“The Dawn Army’s camp is tight, but there are also weaknesses that can be exploited. First of all, their water gate defense is a fatal weakness. It may be possible to pass through it underwater.”

Eagle picked up the pen and wrote it down.

 “Is there any more?”

"It's hard to tell now. You wait here and turn on the intercom. I'll pretend to be a survivor and go over there to test it out. When I talk to that person, listen carefully. When I cough, it's useful information."

 After finishing speaking, both of them turned on the intercom, Wang Dashan was holding it in his arms, and Eagle was listening all the time.

Wang Dashan took a deep breath and stepped out of the car. In order to atone for his sins, he now had the feeling that the wind is rustling and the water is cold, and that a strong man will never return once he is gone.

The Shuguang Army camp may be a dragon's pond and a tiger's den, but he still has to take the risk to observe it.

He made his clothes very tattered, grabbed a few handfuls of mud and smeared it on his face, like a refugee fleeing famine, and slowly walked towards the Dawn Army camp.

As he approached the gate, the guard in front of the gate spotted him.

 Four guards, and a figure with the rank of second lieutenant on his shoulder, who looks like a platoon leader, are leading the squad.

 “Stop, what are you doing?”

Wang Dashan panted and said: "Little brother, I am a survivor over the flower field. I really have no place to go. Can you accept people here?"

The platoon leader looked him up and down: "The people in the Dawn Army camp are not free of charge."

“Oh! What do you want? I have neither food nor weapons.”

"Is there any gold? Gold is currently circulating within the Dawn Army. Everyone who pays five hundred grams of gold, or equivalent jewelry, is eligible to enter the city."

Wang Dashan coughed, and the eagle over there immediately recorded it.

Discover the second weakness of the Dawn Army, pay attention to collecting gold, silver and jewelry, and even be able to mix in large troops.

Wang Dashan continued: "Brother, what's your surname? Can I ask who the leader of our place is? Maybe he's a fellow countryman of ours."

The platoon leader snorted: "My surname is Shen. Don't ask around about anything else. You can't know the leader's name."

 “Is that a man or a woman?”

 “Male!” Platoon Commander Shen was a little impatient.

 “How old are you?”

 “Early twenties.”

"Oh! That's really amazing. Are you married? How about I introduce someone to your leader?"

The Platoon Commander Shen suddenly sneered.

"Uncle, please save it. Our leader is not a womanizer at all, and there are several beauties around him who are indifferent. Anyone who wants to take advantage of him in this regard is just wishful thinking."

Wang Dashan stared at Platoon Commander Shen. He thought he had some ability to recognize people.

 At least it is easy to tell whether some words are true or false.

 When Platoon Commander Shen said these words, he definitely meant it sincerely.

Although he didn't quite believe that there were cats in this world who didn't steal sex, he couldn't help but not believe it at this moment.

“I really didn’t expect that there would be Liu Xiahui in this world.”

 Coughed, and the eagle over there immediately recorded it.

"Important information, the leader of the Dawn Army is not a womanizer, don't try to make a fuss about it."
