Chapter 171 Operation, Ended
Chapter 171 Operation, Ended
"Even if you have good equipment, you'll still die if you get trapped in that kind of encirclement."
He Dong remained calm, as if he were recounting something extremely ordinary.
But these words, when they reached the ears of Guo Yong and others, caused a huge uproar.
A few thousand heads would indeed be insufficient if placed in the Great Xia Dynasty.
However, with a number of less than thirty people.
Just as He Dong said.
Once they are surrounded by zombies, there is no way they can return.
At present.
Even if there were a safe way to enter, the danger to them would still be too great.
The best way.
It means giving up on entering and instead exploring other places.
In this way...
They can ensure safety while also being aware of any other dangers in the surrounding area.
If the portal can stabilize after this journey.
Those types of guns could be dealt with by sending people to carry out a large-scale cleanup after the main force arrives.
Instead of their current few dozen people, who were wiped out due to blind arrogance.
Thinking of this.
Guo Yong made up his mind almost without much thought.
That means abandoning this operation.
They then turned their attention to conquering other areas.
It's impossible that Guo Yong would lead people down to explore the processing plant knowing there were so many zombies and it was so dangerous.
That's not exploration.
That's called sending someone to their death; it shows a disregard for the lives of others.
"Dr. Su, this operation is terminated."
After Guo Yong finished speaking in a deep voice, he looked at Su Yang.
Upon hearing this, Su Yang was stunned for a moment, but quickly realized what was going on.
He immediately understood what Guo Yong was thinking.
He nodded.
Seeing this, Han Bei did not speak.
After all, the commander-in-chief has to consider many more aspects than they do.
The top priority is to ensure everyone's safety.
What He Dong just said is most likely true.
and so.
Canceling this operation is the most appropriate and optimal solution.
"We can't possibly come here and do nothing, can we?"
Han Bei frowned slightly and asked.
They've come all this way, and although they could stop their operation due to safety concerns.
But we have to do something, right?
Otherwise, wouldn't their trip have been in vain?
Upon hearing this, Guo Yong smiled and looked at He Dong.
"Look, you've got something to do?"
Upon hearing this, everyone's gaze fell upon He Dong.
And He Dong was under the watchful eyes of so many people.
I was also sweating profusely, my whole body was drenched in sweat.
Are there any deposits of ore like oilstone near the armory, or any other type of ore?
Su Yang asked He Dong.
Upon hearing this, He Dong first breathed a sigh of relief, but then quickly paused, stunned.
"Oilstone?"
As Su Yang finished speaking, he kept observing the changes in the other person's expression.
When you keenly catch that fleeting hesitation in the other person's eyes.
You'll know once you stay there.
There must be oilstone or other minerals in the vicinity of this armory.
After all, there are usually some kind of mineral deposits near the armory.
The purpose is to reduce transportation costs.
And this place, just as Su Yang estimated, should also have a mineral deposit nearby.
As for why oilstones were mentioned...
This is entirely because, as Jiang Xiaolong had previously stated, oilstone is the universal fuel of the entire Han Hai Empire.
He could then verify whether Jiang Xiaolong's words were true or false.
"There are indeed oilstone deposits nearby. However, control is held by the Giant Whale Base, which is being managed by the White Rainbow Base."
"Other survivors who want to mine can only do so by exchanging labor or other resources."
He Dong nodded and began to speak.
"The Whale Base certainly has a long reach."
Hearing He Dong's words, Han Bei felt a little surprised.
Obviously, this was unexpected.
Even though the Giant Whale Base is so far away, it can still extend its reach here and even send its underlings to control the remaining survivors in the Armory City.
This is a calculated move.
That was a brilliant play.
They didn't have to mine the oil themselves, and they could get free labor. All they had to give up was a little bit of oilstone.
For them, the oilstone reserves were still relatively abundant.
As for the other survivors, will they unite and resist?
Without a vehicle, how far can you go?
Before uniting, the survivors would weigh the consequences of doing so.
Whether they can afford it or not.
"Didn't you consider working together to overthrow it?"
Su Yang raised an eyebrow and looked at He Dong.
Even if there are very few survivors here, the total number of people, big and small, is close to seven or eight hundred.
Dealing with a White Rainbow base is almost too easy.
If they were to unite, even the Giant Whale Base might have to be wary of them.
unless.
The people at the Giant Whale Base have far superior weaponry compared to them.
The gap in weaponry.
It's no use having a large number of people.
Just like those few thousand zombies that they currently consider troublesome, if the Great Xia could send people over...
That's one way to put it.
There's not even a need to send a large force; a combined arms brigade is enough.
That's one way to put it.
There's not even a need to send a large force; a combined arms brigade is enough.
It could probably flatten all the surrounding cities, even the capital of the Han Hai Empire.
As long as there is enough ammunition.
After luring the zombies out of the capital, simply unleash wave after wave of firepower.
This is because they wanted to preserve things within the capital that were useful to them, which is why they chose this plan.
"The weapons are not on the same level, how can we fight?"
Upon hearing this, He Dong scoffed.
This armory was originally occupied by the Giant Whale Base, and most of the weapons inside are scattered around.
Almost all of them were taken by the people from the Giant Whale Base.
Otherwise, how do you think the Giant Whale Base developed into its current size?
to be honest.
This arms city serves as a springboard for the Giant Whale Base.
A springboard in a somewhat special situation.
Unlike other cities, Armory City has a large number of zombies both inside and outside its inner perimeter.
Within the entire armory, only the processing plant area had a high concentration of zombies.
The number of zombies on the outskirts is pitifully small in comparison.
After their cleanup, most of the zombies on the outskirts had disappeared.
"So, your base's weaponry might not even be as good as Baihong Base's?"
Su Yang immediately understood.
Upon hearing this, He Dong remained silent.
Even though what the other person said was correct, he couldn't just nod in agreement.
In this way.
Wouldn't that be like admitting to the other side that your base's strength is actually not that great?
In the end times.
The stronger one's outward display, the less likely other survivors will harbor ill intentions.
However, given the weapons the other side possessed, no matter how much they tried to show off, it seemed to be useless.
Thinking of this.
He Dongshi couldn't help but notice the weapons that Zhu Haotian and Yang Bowen were holding, which were the latest researched weapons that incorporated heavy iron as the raw material for bullets and guns.
A little scheme began to stir in my mind.
