Zombie Crisis: Survival comes first

Chapter 969: It depends on how far the journey is

It is now the end of October and it is still a bit cool after the rain.

If clothes are wet and stick to your body, it is bound to be uncomfortable.

Although the stadium was quite empty and everyone had chosen their own areas, it wasn't anything to be afraid of.

The zombies outside couldn't get in and the door was blocked.

......

Nothing happened overnight.

The next morning, Zhang Liping came alone to the area where Chen Yu and others were resting.

There were also people on guard, but he had been informed in advance, so he was not stopped.

As soon as she approached within five meters, Chen Yu opened his eyes almost instantly and sat up.

"Good morning!" Zhang Liping greeted with a smile, then pointed to the center of the stadium, motioning for her to go over and chat.

Chen Yu nodded and followed her.

"There are a lot of zombies blocking the train, probably several hundred. The most important thing is that there are also zombies in the back carriages..." Zhang Liping said while kicking the soil on the ground.

"So many?" Chen Yu frowned slightly.

Hearing this, Zhang Liping smiled and said, "It shouldn't be difficult for you, right?"

"Why do you say that?" Chen Yu pretended not to understand.

Seeing this, Zhang Liping pointed at the group of people behind him and said, "Your men never panicked when they encountered zombies. They stared at each other's blind spots and killed them in an orderly manner with knives. This level of skill is not available in ordinary camps."

The next second, Chen Yu shook his head and said, "They are not my men."

"Oh?" Zhang Liping blinked, "You're not even the one in charge?"

"They are all my partners and teammates...even brothers." Because Zhang Liping did not look stupid, Chen Yu was willing to talk to her more.

"Lend me a few people. I should be able to clean up those zombies in a week, but I don't know where to get so much coal now."

Hearing this, Chen Yu said, "You go and deal with the train issue, and I'll take care of the coal."

"Are you sure?" Zhang Liping smiled, and she crossed her arms and said, "This is not the end of the world, where can you get it?"

Since he had never seen such a coal-burning train before, Chen Yu paused when he saw her expression and asked, "How much coal is needed to run this train?"

"Well, it depends on how far the journey is..."

Hearing this, Chen Yu thought about it and gave an answer.

"What if it's about 700 kilometers?"

"How much?!" Zhang Liping's eyes widened in disbelief, "Could it be that the Savior Gate is 700 kilometers away from us?!"

Chen Yu hesitated for a moment, but still nodded slightly.

The next second, Zhang Liping looked at the young man in front of her for a while and said, "What kind of hatred is it that makes the other party come all the way to deal with you?"

After saying this, Chen Yu put his hands in his pockets and said, "In my opinion, the two sides don't have much hatred, but I can't accept the ideology of that group of people in the doomsday. They treat pregnant women cruelly and even ask them to commit suicide after giving birth..."

At this point, Chen Yu paused, "My main concern is that they will call us in the future. It is unrealistic to travel long distances now, but no one can predict what will happen in two years or even five years."

"What's more, the location of our camp has been discovered, but we have no idea where they are. There is only a marked point on the map."

Zhang Liping listened and said, "Indeed, the enemies nowadays are not like before. They will not consider many things. In the apocalypse, if they don't like you, they will just kill you. No one will stand up for you."

"Well, that's about it. It would be nice if humans didn't kill each other."

"Haha." Zhang Liping was amused by his words and curled her lips and said, "Even in the past, humans still fought non-stop!"

"So, give me an accurate estimate of how much coal is needed."

"If it's more than 700 kilometers, it would probably take this many..."

Zhang Liping raised her right hand with her palm open.

"Five hundred kilograms?" Chen Yu tentatively said a number.

As soon as she finished speaking, Zhang Liping rolled her eyes in front of him.

"Including the return trip, I estimate you'll need to prepare 50 tons. This is only for the 700-kilometer journey. If it's a full trip, you'll need even more coal."

"So many..." Chen Yu suddenly felt a headache, "If we use a semi-trailer to pull it, we will need two, right?"

Nowadays, things are different from before. If you want to transport so much coal, you must first consider whether zombies will block the road, and secondly, you must also consider the vehicles.

"So, since it's quite far away, why not just forget about it?" Zhang Liping glanced at the others and saw that they were already preparing hot food. Then she said, "At worst, we can just move to another place."

Chen Yu did not accept Zhang Liping's idea. After thinking about it, he said, "Moving is very troublesome. We have finally developed for so long. Who has the energy to continue to move to other places?"

"What's more, some of the relatively good areas nowadays may have been occupied by others."

"That being said, there's no problem." Zhang Liping nodded and said, "Anyway, I've said almost everything I need to say. The details depend on how you solve it."

After that, she returned to her area.

After Chen Yu returned, he informed everyone of the content of the conversation.

After listening to this, everyone showed a solemn expression.

Da Zhuang turned his head and looked over there, and asked, "Could it be that this woman is trying to scare us, just to make us back down?"

Hearing this, Zhang Yin thought for a moment and said, "What good will this do for her?"

"Zhang Yin is right. There is no such thing as a quick fix without profit. The reason they formed an alliance with us is simply because resources are scarce right now, and some people do not have the means to rob other forces."

"Our appearance at this time undoubtedly gave them an opportunity."

After that, everyone fell silent.

Fifty tons of coal may not be a lot before the end of the world, but where can you find it in today's environment?

A few seconds later, Chen Yu took a bite of the cake and said, "How about this, we split into two groups. Who will lead a few people and follow that woman to deal with the zombies?"

As soon as he finished speaking, several people in front of him raised their hands.

Seeing this, Chen Yu thought for a moment and said, "Then Qi Hao, you follow Brother Xiao. Zhang Yin and Brother Dazhuang will follow me. Let's split up and look for places where there might be coal."

Are pointed at himself, "What about me?"

Hearing this, Chen Yu thought for a moment and then said: "You also follow us, but don't go too far. We will go find coal, and you go find a semi-trailer."

"Okay, that's it." Xiao Jiu nodded without any objection.

He also knew that Chen Yu asked him to follow the one-eyed man and his men most likely to keep an eye on them and prevent them from causing any trouble.

Chen Yu stood up and stretched out his hand in front of him, saying: "This is the first time we have dealt with so many people in recent times. Everyone should be careful and don't let your guard down..."
