Rebirth In The Apocalypse: Start By Building The Strongest Base

The next day.

A little after six o'clock.

The Green Source Base personnel woke up early.

They stepped out of their homes.

And once again saw the slowly brightening sunrise on the horizon.

It was still a familiar morning, the sunlight refracted from afar once again dispelling the darkness.

It's a good day.

Having experienced yesterday's acid rain, and having completed the cleaning of most of the base last night, they had basically weathered the disaster.

Today, normal work would resume.

After breakfast, everyone began various tasks under the arrangement of the managers.

The walls were still being repaired, heightened, and thickened with a dedicated workforce.

The production of bullets could not be stopped.

Yuan Mu also requested a few people for the planting department to start planting more vegetables, fruits, melons, and some grain seedlings.

The security personnel on duty began a full base safety inspection, and those off duty began to remove the waterproof tarpaulins that were still covering things, storing them away for future use.

Even Luo Dandan requested a few people, because there were simply too many supplies collected recently. Not to mention the major categories, there were countless products of the same type, and it would take a lot of time to distinguish them one by one.

They also had to pay attention to the expiration dates of each item. Some that were expired but not yet spoiled needed to be used first, while those with longer dates could be stored first.

Just checking the classification, arranging them in different areas, collecting data, and making reports, not to mention facilitating future inspection and management, were all fields of knowledge in themselves, extremely time-consuming.

It should be known that the total amount of various types of materials collected now has definitely exceeded the total amount of several large supermarkets.

Allocating only a few people was already considered a small number.

However, the base personnel were currently assigned to various tasks, so this could only be done for the time being. Anyway, this type of work could be slowed down a bit.

Qin Jin had always been very strict with the base personnel, and no one dared to bring outsiders in without his consent.

As for the manpower issue, Qin Jin had a plan in mind and would arrange it later.

On the combat team side.

Early in the morning, the squad leaders had already consciously arranged for their team members to organize their weapons and equipment. They wanted to test the situation of the zombies after the mutation in order to customize future external operations.

These details did not need Qin Jin to personally care about. After they came out with the results, someone would naturally report to him.

Anyway, he could roughly guess the result.

After all, he had dealt with zombies too many times in his previous life.

In the office building.

Qin Jin was in his office.

He had just dialed the intercom and had already summoned a few people in front of him.

They were Xia Yan, Sun Xiaolong, and Sun Xiaohu.

That's right.

They were all the people in the base besides him who could fly helicopters.

As for the purpose of him calling these people over, he had already begun to explain.

"Everyone, you might be a little curious about what I've called you here for, right? It's very simple. You are all the people in our base who can fly helicopters. I need you to select more people in the base to learn how to fly helicopters."

"Zhong Yu and Liu Qing both learned some last time, but they are not proficient enough."

"The personnel can be decided by you. I only need the result. Try to add six people who can fly independently in a month!"

"Can you do it?"

Xia Yan and the others looked at each other and then nodded to the boss.

"No problem!"

Qin Jin thought for a while and then said to them again:

"We brought back some aviation fuel from the helicopter training ground. We used some during the last family-seeking mission. I will approve another 15 tons for you. You can use it as you see fit. That should be enough, right?"

Xia Yan and the others calculated in their hearts. Although helicopters are not as fuel-guzzling as fighter jets and Airbuses, they are still big fuel consumers.

If they save a bit and have more students on the plane or operating it each time, they should be able to train them to the point where they can fly independently.

The few people nodded in agreement again.

Qin Jin finally nodded in satisfaction.

He was also helpless in his heart. He had brought back more than 150 tons of aviation fuel from the helicopter training ground before, and then consumed 25 tons in the family-seeking mission.

These are all fuel tigers!

The fuel consumption of a helicopter is about 120-260 liters per 100 kilometers, depending on the environmental wind direction, load, and speed, but it is roughly the same.

That is to say, a round trip of 1,000 kilometers requires about 1,200 liters or more of aviation kerosene!

A bit terrifying.

So the aviation kerosene brought back from the training ground seemed like a lot, but it was actually not durable at all.

In fact, there are also piston engine helicopters that can use ordinary gasoline, but unfortunately the few they found were turboshaft engines, which can only use aviation kerosene.

After being distributed to them for training, there were only 110 tons of aviation fuel left.

He had other uses for it.

"Then I have another task to give you."

"After you select the people to learn today, tomorrow you can take your respective students to the two places I will designate later."

"You need to record the road information along the way and sort out the routes directly to the two destinations. I will have great use for them later."

"After arriving at the destination, if someone drives you away, then come back quickly and don't get entangled with them."

"If there is no one there."

"Then record the information inside clearly for me. You don't need to get off the plane. You just need to circle around in detail, including all the surrounding building information."

Speaking of this, he stepped forward and patted the shoulders of the few people.

He continued.

"This mission is more important. I need you to put in 100% of your energy. Thank you for your hard work."

"Come to my place again tonight. I will give you the addresses. Go down and pick your team members first. I have already greeted the squad leaders."

The few people agreed repeatedly. They didn't dare to really express any disagreement in front of President Qin.

Everyone knew President Qin's style of saying one thing and meaning it.

He dismissed the few people.

He stayed in the office by himself.

The instructions had been given, and he was waiting for them to execute them.

Hopefully, he could successfully obtain detailed information about the two military regions, so that he could plan to go there to get some supplies.

Without any real heavy firepower, he always felt uneasy.

He didn't dare to implement many plans casually.

Perhaps he was chased by monsters too much in his previous life, and he had a fear of insufficient firepower.
