Chapter 274: Doubts (Subscription Request)
When night fell again, Wang Jin occupied Lingnan Base for a day.
Wang Jin got up from the soft big bed and slept for ten hours. He was completely recovered from the fatigue after the battle last night. After washing his face, Wang Jin walked out of the room in high spirits.
"Brother Wang! Brother Wang! Brother Wang!"
In the lobby on the first floor of the restaurant, Chen Dong, He Youxi, Murong Jun, and Jia Ding were sitting here, drinking tea and waiting for Wang Jin to wake up.
They had also looked for Wang Jin before, but were stopped by Azizada.
Anyway, it was not an important matter, just reporting the inventory of supplies. Jia Ding and others were not in a hurry, so they did not continue to disturb him, but came to the lobby to wait for Wang Jin to wake up.
Now seeing Wang Jin coming down, He Youxi and others stood up and greeted him, and asked the hotel owner next to them to pour tea quickly.
"Is the matter handled?" Wang Jin sat on a chair and looked at the four people and said.
"Brother Wang, it's done. All the material data has been counted."
Jia Ding glanced at the hotel owner, who stepped aside tactfully, leaving the space for Wang Jin and the others.
"Brother Wang, after statistics, there are currently 870,000 survivors in the Lingnan base, of which the elderly and children account for 7%, and young and middle-aged people account for 93%. The materials include 70,000 tons of food, 7,000 tons of gasoline, and brain core crystal cores. According to Brother Wang's calculation, there are a total of 3.8 million brain cores and 420,000 crystal cores."
Jia Ding held an account book and chattered continuously: "In addition, there are more than 1,000 trucks, more than 10,000 cars, and cement, clothes, engines, and machines."
After Jia Ding finished talking about all the information, he handed the account book in his hand to Wang Jin and said: "Brother Wang, look, all the detailed material conditions are recorded here, you can check it carefully."
Wang Jin took the account book, flipped through a few pages, looked at the dense numbers on it, and compared it with what Jia Ding had just said. He didn't find any mistakes, so he put it away and took a closer look when he had time.
Compared with other information, Wang Jin was most concerned about brain cores and crystal cores. Hearing the number of crystal cores and brain cores mentioned by Jia Ding, Wang Jin was even happier.
3.8 million brain cores and 420,000 crystal cores, this huge resource is enough for Wang Jin to use for a long time, and it is no problem to increase the number of Zerg from 200,000 to 300,000.
After Jia Ding finished reporting, Chen Dong also reported: "Brother Wang, after we received the weapons from the battlefield and the arsenal, we got a total of 150,000 complete guns, more than 3,000 light and heavy machine guns, 40 artillery pieces, more than 300 armored vehicles and infantry fighting vehicles, 90 tanks, 18 helicopters, and 11 fighter planes."
Chen Dong said with a sad face that after more than 100,000 troops from Lingnan Base were defeated, they only got this little weapon in the end.
Ordinary guns and ammunition are okay, but there are almost no heavy weapons left.
All this is because of Wang Jin's destruction. The previous host airdrop bombing almost blew up all the arsenals of Lingnan Base and destroyed a large number of heavy weapons.
In the subsequent battle, Wang Jin focused on the armored forces and artillery.
So the current consequences were finally caused, and very few heavy weapons were seized.
However, Wang Jin didn't care much about this. After all, Wang Jin's livelihood was still the Zerg. As long as there were Zergs in hand, hot weapons could only play a supporting role.
"Okay, the weapons are gone, so what? We have occupied the Lingnan base. Are we still afraid that there will be fewer troops in the future?"
Wang Jin smiled and comforted, asking Chen Dong not to take it to heart.
"Brother Wang, you mean to expand the army."
Chen Dong instantly became energetic, and He Youxi next to him also looked at Wang Jin with bright eyes.
Once the army is expanded, their troops will increase, and the power in their hands will also increase, becoming one of the beneficiaries, which naturally makes them very concerned.
"If nothing unexpected happens, this matter will be discussed after the Lingnan base is rectified."
Wang Jin nodded, giving Chen Dong and He Youxi a reassurance.
With an increase of more than 800,000 people, Wang Jin must increase the human army, otherwise it will be very troublesome to manage.
"Lord City Lord, we have captured a total of 53,000 soldiers and 732 mutants, including 692 level 1 mutants, 30 level 2 mutants, and 10 level 3 mutants."
Murong Jun said. Her current task is to manage the prisoners and temporarily detain them with the cooperation of the Zerg.
"It seems that there are still many people who know the current situation."
Wang Jin smiled. Most of the 1,000 mutants in Lingnan Base were captured, and almost all the high-level mutants surrendered.
Because the more powerful people are, the more reluctant they are to give up their wealth and glory.
No matter who they work for, these masters will not be treated too badly, so they are naturally unwilling to die for Liu Jun in vain.
"Detain them for the time being, wait for Lingnan Base to stabilize, and then solve their problems."
"Understood!" Murong Jun nodded, which means that the prisoners will continue to be unlucky.
Murong Jun is not a kind-hearted person. On the contrary, Murong Jun is a vicious and cruel femme fatale. Those captives must have had a hard time under her.
After everyone reported everything, Wang Jin looked at everyone and said, "Now we have the Lingnan base, but everything is not stable yet. We still have a lot to do."
"Jia Ding, have you calculated how long the 70,000 tons of food can feed the one million people in the Lingnan base and the Lishan base?"
Wang Jin turned his head and looked at Jia Ding. Although 70,000 tons of food is a lot, the population under Wang Jin has also increased greatly. It is not known whether these food will be enough.
When Jia Ding heard this, he replied with a prepared answer: "Brother Wang, the current population of our two bases is 1.1 million. According to the current distribution of two bowls of porridge to the survivors every day, 70,000 tons of food can last for five months. If the population increases like before, this time will be shortened."
Sure enough, 70,000 tons of food is only enough for five months after being divided equally, so the food is not too much.
"Is that so?" Wang Jin knocked on the table and suddenly looked up and asked, "Isn't this Lingnan Plain a good planting area? I remember that this was a large grain-producing area in the past. Why didn't Liu Jun plant grain? If grain is planted on a large scale, wouldn't it be more than enough to feed more than one million people?"
"I don't know about this. Why don't you ask someone?"
Jia Ding also felt a little strange when he heard Wang Jin say this.
The Lingnan Plain has fertile land and flat terrain, which is very conducive to planting. How could the Lingnan base not plant grain?
The same is true for others. They didn't pay attention on the way to the Lingnan base. They didn't see any grain planted in the Lingnan base on the way. Now they heard Wang Jin's words and they all became suspicious.
Any normal person would not leave this fertile land alone. Liu Jun is not a fool. Why doesn't he plant grain?
You must know that in the end times, grain is the gold of the past, and it is what every base desires.
No one has ever complained that they have too much food. Besides, as I said just now, the grain of the Lingnan base is not rich at all when divided equally among nearly one million people.
"I'll call the hotel owner over. He's a local and should know something about the situation."
Murong Jun stood up and, after getting Wang Jin's consent, went to the backstage of the hotel and brought the owner over.
Wang Jin waited here leisurely, chatting with Jia Ding and others while waiting for Murong Jun to return.
