Chapter 143 Post-War Meeting

Just as Lu Jiayi's team was gradually getting on track, the Atlanta Prison Base was also busy in full swing.

The post-war statistical work of the corpse tide lasted for a full week. This time, almost all personnel in the battle base were dispatched, and finally successfully stopped this large wave of zombies. During the summary meeting of the battle, Aji pointed at a few items angrily. The person in charge yelled. A total of 400 people were dispatched in this battle. Just these people on the city wall fired a total of 90,000 rounds of ammunition. Plus the people in the armored vehicles, there were also machine guns in the two fortresses, and tanks. of cannonballs!

This made Aji's heart bleed. You must know that the more than 100,000 rounds of bullets are close to more than half of the base's inventory!

Rick also sighed helplessly. There was nothing that could be done about it. There were too many zombies in this wave, and the preparation time was so short. There was no other way but to engage in hand-to-hand combat. Although these people had training on weekdays, they could not fire live ammunition. It's such a waste of bullets. It can only provide a small amount of bullets for everyone to practice, so the marksmanship is definitely not satisfactory.

"Aji, don't worry, we still have Piarru. Don't forget that he is a master of firearms. Making some bullets is not easy. And after the blacksmiths and carpenters in our base become proficient, they may be able to Make some simple firearms.”

Rick thought of the old man Lu Jiayi found, who seemed to have expressed that he would fully cooperate with the base to manufacture weapons.

Aji had no choice. Who asked him to be responsible for logistics? Although he knew that these ammunition could continue to be produced, he still felt distressed when he saw so many bullets used in one battle. However, what Rick said made sense. For the time being, he Suppressing the anxiety in his heart, he nodded to Rick and sat down.

Rick took a breath and looked at the people present. Since Lu Jiayi took away several main players during his trip, he had to find a few more people in charge, including Philip from Aji's team and Jacqui. Wait for a few people.

Although a lot of ammunition was indeed wasted yesterday, Aji also discovered a few people who had made rapid progress in marksmanship. Surprisingly, there were several women among these people.

Carol, Andrea, Amy, Oscar, Alex, etc., several people stood out. In order to allow them to continue to improve, Rick planned to assign these people tasks on guard tower duty and outings.

The first half of the meeting slowly ended with everyone's post-war summary. Rick picked up a document he had prepared before and said to the people present: "Next, I will arrange our tasks within half a year. "

Everyone sat upright. Not only the person in charge was present, but also some important members of the base and several representatives. After talking to these people, it was equivalent to informing everyone.

Rick picked up the information and started reading line by line.

"In the next six months, our tasks will still be very arduous. Before Lu left, he handed this information to me. I also discussed it carefully with several captains and revised some details of the information. Then I will Let me tell you the specific arrangements.”

Rick coughed twice and said slowly: "First, we plan to upgrade the security system of the base. Now there are more and more people in the base. Although we can achieve basic immunity to the virus, some arrests Injuries and bites will still have an impact on us, so we plan to set up a checkpoint at the entrance of the base. All people returning from outings must go through a series of inspections before entering the base. This checkpoint will gradually expand with the future expansion of the base. Move outward to ensure the safety of the interior of the base."

"The second is the outer wall. Aji, you need to work overtime and hurry up. We are not sure when the next zombie wave will come, so the outer wall is very important!"

Aji nodded to express his understanding, and then Rick continued: "We need to design a circle of horses around the perimeter of the fence. We also need to add some pits or other obstruction facilities outside the walls. This will not only Blocking the walking dead can also prevent some intruders.”

"Third, we need to explore the port of Atlanta as soon as possible. There is still a large amount of materials stored in the containers there. Maybe some will be damaged over time, but I believe there are still many materials that are still useful, including those nearby. There are military bases and other places where supplies can be hidden. We have many active military personnel here and are somewhat familiar with some of the large military bases in the surrounding areas. We must not let go of these places!"

"Fourth, as the population of the base continues to increase, we need to start thinking about expanding various infrastructures. The greenhouses must not only increase in size, but also add more plant species, and even plant some fruit trees, which can not only improve the living environment , and can also receive a large amount of fruit, Hershel, please use your brain more on this, we will increase our exploration of this aspect when we go out."

"fifth……"

Rick assigned tasks for all aspects of the prison, and also brought out all the details that he had previously discussed with several persons in charge.

According to several books left by Lu Jiayi, a group of people were specially arranged to practice the work of blacksmiths and carpenters.

Also look for equipment to make bullets, metal materials, gunpowder, etc.

It can be said that what Lu Jiayi left for him was a semi-finished product. During the six months since the other party was absent, Rick needed to spend a lot of time perfecting this semi-finished product and turning it into a finished product.

This process will definitely take more than half a year, but Rick plans to complete these things as much as possible.

Two consecutive zombie swarm attacks filled Rick's heart with a sense of urgency. He couldn't imagine what would happen if there was another large-scale zombie swarm, and he didn't dare to gamble, so he also made a lot of preparations. First, he moved the base The surrounding woods continue to be cleared outwards, followed by preparation of zombie masks, establishment of outposts around the outer base, etc., a series of preparations.

In the next few days, Rick's heart dropped as the outer wall was gradually completed. The entire wall is definitely incomparable to the inner city wall, but it is still three meters high. The whole wall is made of red bricks. The ultra-deep foundation makes Rick very sure of the bearing capacity of this wall.

At least Rick won't be worried if there is another zombie wave like last time. This wall is enough to withstand a large-scale zombie wave. Coupled with the anti-horse installed later, this place will look very war-like. The smell of a fortress.

Now that the development of the base is on the right track, Rick is completely relieved. The next step is to collect supplies.

…

One month later.

Rick got up very early and came to the canteen of the base. At this time, many people were already sitting in the canteen.

There was a relatively large operation today. The soldiers in the base provided the coordinates of several military bases. Rick found that several of them were a bit far away, but one was only dozens of kilometers away from the base. This distance was quite close. .

So Rick waved his hand, and here it is! And the reason why they got up so early today was precisely to rush to this base.

"Rick, here!"

Sean was sitting in a corner of the dining hall, eating breakfast, and in front of him was another plate, which was obviously food for Rick.

Rick walked over with a smile. This brother got up very early every day and helped him get a meal every time.

Rick looked at Sean while eating and said: "Sean, you don't want to go this time. I will lead the team and you stay at the base to look after the house."

Sean was stunned when he heard this. He really didn't expect Rick to let him stay.

"It's very dangerous this time. I don't trust you to go alone."

Rick explained: "Because I will bring a lot of people there this time, just focus on the base. Without you, I will be more worried about this place!"
