The Mechanical Empire of the End of the World

Chapter 49 Yingjiang Shelter

Looking past Chen Tianyou, Li Meng looked at the crowd on the street in the distance.

"Could the injured one be the Fort Master Sun Gaowu you mentioned?"

Not daring to hide it, Chen Tianyou replied: "Yes, he is Sun Gaowu, and it was he who ordered the surrender. This battle with the Governor was just a misunderstanding. Please don't blame Sun Gaowu, the Governor. He is the castle owner of Yingjiang Sanctuary." , he just did what he had to do.”

Looking away, Li Meng looked at Chen Tianyou and said calmly: "You are loyal..."

Having said this, Li Meng turned back and nodded to the imperial archers behind him.

The Imperial archers lined up at the crossroads moved into action. They moved out of the way and lined up on both sides.

Looking back at Chen Tianyou, Li Meng said: "They can leave, you stay, and the castle master..."

Hearing this, Chen Tianyou breathed a sigh of relief and quickly turned around and walked towards the crowd behind him.

Arriving in front of the crowd, Chen Tianyou said loudly: "Keep going, everyone returns to the shelter..."

Seeing those blocking the road in front of them give way, the crowd moved in response and crowded forward. For a while, the streets were noisy.

"Fortmaster, he wants to see you..."

Looking up at Li Meng at the intersection, Sun Gaowu said weakly: "Who is he?"

Chen Tianyou also turned around and looked at Li Meng in the distance, and said: "He is the Governor-General "Li Meng"..."

The expression on his face was stunned, and Sun Gaowu said calmly: "Then let's go, let's go there..."

Then, with the support of his men, Sun Gaowu and Chen Tianyou followed the flow of people and walked towards Li Meng.

At the crossroads, in front of the weapons pile, Sun Gaowu and Chen Tianyou came to Li Meng.

Looking at the man in front of him who was covered in armor, Sun Gaowu said weakly: "I am the castle master "Sun Gaowu", Lord Governor, no matter what conflicts we had before, Yingjiang Sanctuary is yours now, and I will do whatever it takes." It's up to you..."

Looking at the iron arrow stuck in Sun Gaowu's shoulder, Li Meng stepped out of the way and said calmly: "I hope you can survive..."

Hearing this, the two men who were supporting Sun Gaowu looked at each other. They supported Sun Gaowu and walked past Li Meng, gradually walking away.

After looking at Sun Gaowu's leaving figure and then at the crowds of people passing by at the intersection, Li Meng said to Chen Tianyou beside him: "From today on, you will be my assistant, responsible for managing the Yingjiang Shelter... "

Lowering his head slightly, Chen Tianyou said without changing his expression: "Mr. Governor, I am glad to serve you..."

He is a sensible person...

Turning to look at Chen Tianyou beside him, Li Meng looked back at the crowd passing by the intersection and said, "What is the population of Yingjiang Asylum?"

Looking at the snow under his feet, Chen Tianyou replied: "There are probably more than 6,000 people who can contribute labor..."

Hearing this, Li Meng's eyes lit up, and a look of joy flashed across his face.

Li Meng never expected that there would be so many people in Yingjiang Shelter. Li Meng thought that these people outside were the majority of the people in Yingjiang Shelter, but he did not expect to receive such an unexpected surprise.

etc……

Seemingly realizing something, Li Meng quickly asked: "What is the total population?"

Chen Tianyou's answer just now was the number of people who can contribute labor. In other words, the population of Yingjiang Shelter is not only more than 6,000, but also more...

"this……"

With a hesitant look on his face, Chen Tianyou said uncertainly: "It is difficult to estimate the accurate population. If we add some elderly people and children, there should be nearly 10,000 people..."

With a curious look on his face, Li Meng asked: "How do you feed so many people?"

We must know that the Qing'an shelter only has more than 700 people, and the resources required give Li Meng a headache. How huge are the resources needed for a shelter of 10,000 people?

Li Meng was very curious about how the Yingjiang shelter continued to operate. There were 10,000 people there...

Chen Tianyou lowered his head and said, "Sir, have you seen the building complex to the north? There is a food city there. All the food resources in the shelter come from the food city. So far, the resource reserves in the food city are still considerable..."

north?

Li Meng turned and looked to the north. Just a few hundred meters away, Li Meng saw a stretch of snow-capped mountains.

So that’s it…

Relying on the Food City, Yingjiang Shelter can feed so many people. No wonder...

Seeing this, Li Meng had some thoughts in his heart. If Qing'an Shelter had such a food city, the shelter's population would not have dropped to more than 700 people in just a dozen years.

With this food city, Qing'an Shelter no longer has to worry about scarcity of food resources.

Although Yingjiang Shelter is a certain distance away from Qing'an Shelter, it only takes one day to get there...

At this time, there was no crowd visible at the crossroads, and everyone except the Imperial archers had entered the shelter.

The day is almost over, the sky is getting darker and the air is getting colder.

A gust of cold wind blew through the armor, making Li Meng shiver.

"Put away all the rifles. As for the iron spears, just throw them here..."

The imperial archers at the crossroads responded, picked out rifles from the weapons pile, and hung them on their shoulders.

Turning around and looking at the entrance of the subway station not far away, Li Meng said to Chen Tianyou beside him: "Let's go in..."

Chen Tianyou naturally did not dare to say anything and led the way...

Then, Li Meng led the army into the subway station.

The stairs were covered with snow and footprints, and there was ice on the bottom, but it was not slippery...

When he turned a corner, there was a dark world ahead.

When he walked a dozen meters and turned another corner, the fire flickered, and the flames dispelled the darkness.

When he left the stairs, Li Meng led the imperial archers into a fairly wide passage.

The passage was not dark. There was a burning iron barrel every fifty meters, and the jumping flames dispelled the darkness.

After walking another fifty meters, Li Meng came to the subway platform he was familiar with.

The platform was no longer the platform Li Meng was familiar with. Although the space on the platform was wide, it was blocked by a curtain.

Behind the curtain, Li Meng saw the fire and a pair of eyes...

Is this the room?

Seeing this, Li Meng muttered in his heart.

However, it was also true that this was just a subway platform after all. The space was not large, and there was no room. In such a place, if you want to have a private space, you can only use a curtain to isolate a space that belongs to you.

This place is not very deep from the ground. Even if the power system is lost, the air should be able to circulate with the help of the ventilation shaft.

It is not a good place, but it is not a bad place either...

As for the living environment, it is the same everywhere. The living environment in Qing'an Shelter is also very bad, not good at all.

The people on the platform seemed to know what happened. They just looked at the imperial archers passing by on the main road timidly and talked in low voices.
