Chapter 528

The cold temperature made the mind clear. Through the broken door of the laboratory, one could see the stars in the sky.

Zhang Su shook the walkie-talkie in his hand, looked at Li Zongkai and Yu Wen opposite him, and said slowly.

"This disaster must have affected many people, causing heavy losses to some camps that were already in jeopardy. It cannot be ruled out that some people will take advantage of the fire, but I am not being arrogant. With the current situation in Qincheng, no force can pose a threat to us. On the contrary, we may face passive expansion in the future."

Not to mention Tianma Island, even the former Survivor Alliance was something that many small forces could not compare to. Once they encounter danger, seeking shelter is human nature. Situations like Niuyazi will not be an isolated case.

As a major force, it is impossible to remain indifferent to the pleas for help from others in such a harsh environment. It used to be a joke to say "the continuation of human civilization depends on us," but now it is no longer an exaggeration. The real burden is pressing on everyone's shoulders.

With great power comes great responsibility, which has also become concrete.

Li Zongkai and Yu Wen both knew the intention of Zhang Su telling them these things; he needed them to provide some opinions.

"A crisis environment will make humans subconsciously huddle together for warmth. Unless someone is mentally abnormal, they will not cause destruction. In this kind of time, stability is not a problem. I think it is a good opportunity for expansion, but we must use the crisis moment to establish prestige so that it will be easy to manage after things stabilize."

Yu Wen's focus has always been on governance, and he immediately gave his opinion combined with the current situation.

After a little thought, Li Zongkai continued Yu Wen's words: "Mr. Zhang, forgive me for being blunt. In the current situation, if we continue to develop separately, I am afraid it will be even more dangerous. We may need to consider the matter of merging."

Dispersion was to avoid being targeted by zombie groups, but now the situation has changed. After the zombies were strengthened, their ability to find humans has significantly increased. If they still live and develop according to the previous plan, I am afraid that except for Tianma Island, which has the strongest strength, other places will not even have the power to resist.

"By the way, I didn't have time to tell you before."

Zhang Su pinched his forehead and pointed to the kindergarten direction: "The auto park side has been completely abandoned. The Apocalypse Group and the Little Eagle Society have completely merged. The ordinary members are all settled in the kindergarten side. More than a dozen combat personnel were left, and everyone else rushed over. After things stabilize..."

"Whistle, whistle..."

As he was speaking, a whistle broke the peace in the mall, and then a sound came from downstairs.

"A group of zombies is coming from the south, the number is unknown, about fifty."

"Quickly notify the big brothers of the Yama Legion..."

"Shut up, fifty don't need to bother the Yama Legion, we can handle it ourselves. Brothers, grab your weapons!"

Downstairs, Liu Yao immediately organized people to prepare for resistance after hearing the report.

In the past, fifty zombies could be easily handled even by unofficial combat personnel, but now it's not possible. The regular army must be dispatched, and there must be bunkers and preparations, otherwise, danger will occur...

"Zombies have become so powerful, our days ahead will be more and more difficult..."

Wu Lue poked his head out to look at the people acting below and sighed.

"Old Li, how many more people can the barracks hold?" Zhang Su asked.

Li Zongkai's eyes lit up and he said: "Mr. Zhang wants to transfer the people here to the barracks?"

"That's right."

After being attacked by zombies twice, Zhang Su felt that continuing to develop separately was by no means a wise move, but he didn't want to take everyone back to Tianma Island directly, as that would be overly crowded.

Whether out of selfishness or other considerations, he hoped that Tianma Island would be all core members, and as many as possible would be the elite of the elite!

Li Zongkai said very firmly: "The hardware facilities of the barracks are still good. It will be more than enough to hold about five hundred people. There will definitely be some incompatibility, which can be adjusted slowly later."

"Alright, as long as the hardware can meet the requirements, everything else is easy to handle. Since that's the case, let's use the time tomorrow and the day after to transfer everyone over."

"Everyone?"

"Including the people at the kindergarten side?"

Yu Wen and Li Zongkai asked at the same time. Zhang Su nodded and said: "That's right. You have all seen the situation of the zombies. Each one is like having a dog's nose, and they are much more sensitive to finding people than before. Fortunately, they don't gather in groups before launching attacks now, but even so, the harassment of these groups is also a headache. Dispersed strength will be exhausted by defense, so it is better to build a solid fortress!"

"But..." Li Zongkai paused and said: "If we are talking about building a solid camp, isn't Tianma Island more suitable?"

Tianma Island is built against the mountain, with a mountain road up and down. As long as it is slightly modified, it is a fortress pattern that is easy to defend and difficult to attack. The barracks have no advantage in front of Tianma Island.

"I also think that if we are together..."

Yu Wen hesitated for a moment, made up his mind and continued: "I think if we are together, the best choice is to take everyone back to Tianma Island. Village No. 1 and Village No. 2 still have carrying capacity. If it really doesn't work, we can enable Village No. 3 in the north. It will definitely take some effort, but it will be done once and for all."

The decision in the afternoon left everyone surrounded, which gave Yu Wen a shadow in his heart, and he became cautious when speaking.

Zhang Su pursed his lips and didn't speak, thinking about the situation around Tianma Island in his mind. After a long while, he sighed and said: "Everyone here is our own people, so I'll just say it. I feel that taking so many people back to Tianma Island at once might be overwhelming. Not to mention anything else, the supplies will be tight."

Supplies are an important part of ensuring survival. Originally, every family's supplies were very abundant. If they were all concentrated together, reasonable distribution would definitely not be a problem, but now the supplies at the auto park side have been robbed, and the Apocalypse Group originally had over a hundred people. This gap is not small! If it were before, it wouldn't be anything; searching around would be enough, but now there are such awesome zombies everywhere. The intensity of the search mission has increased, and the efficiency has decreased accordingly! "Yeah, the eating, drinking, and pooping of hundreds of people is a problem..."

"Unfortunately, it's freezing cold now, and planting can't keep up!"

Supplies are a big problem. Li Zongkai and Yu Wen started to worry together. This is something they have to rack their brains about, and they definitely won't be able to think of a solution for a while.

"Brother Su, I, that..."

Chen Hanzhou saw that the scene was quiet, walked to Zhang Su's side, and said with evasive eyes: "Can we find a place to talk for a few words?"

"You didn't go to rest? Is there something? Let's go, talk over here."

Zhang Su raised his eyebrows and pointed to Gong Chengming's simple hut.

He knew that Chen Hanzhou had been following them quietly, pretending not to know anything, but he had been keeping part of his attention on him.

"I'll go talk to Little Chen over there. You guys think about it first, and tell me if you have any ideas later."

Zhang Su gave an instruction and left.

Except for Zheng Xinyu, no one took their private conversation seriously, only thinking it was a normal exchange.

In the pitch-black room, with a snap, a firelight appeared. Zhang Su lit a cigarette, then handed one to Chen Hanzhou, and asked with a smile: "Can you still smoke?"

"Barely..."

Chen Hanzhou took the cigarette and lit it himself, then was silent for a while.

In the dark environment, Chen Hanzhou was almost blind, only barely able to see a silhouette of Zhang Su, but Zhang Su was different. Everything was like daylight in his eyes, and every subtle expression on Chen Hanzhou's face was seen clearly.

"Damn, if only I had Ju Wuying's ability. Is it because my eyesight and hearing are too good that I can't feel the emotions in other people's hearts?"

Zhang Su exhaled smoke and pondered depressedly.

"That... Brother Su, didn't you say before that if there is any abnormal reaction, tell you? I... I feel like I'm not right!"

After hesitating for a moment, Chen Hanzhou frowned and spoke.

Zhang Su felt that he might be talking about today's changes when Chen Hanzhou called him. Seeing that it was indeed the case, he was still a bit surprised, but also felt a sense of relief and peace of mind.

As long as you are willing to open your heart, that is good!
