Apocalyptic Reincarnation: Start with a 30-million Bonus

Chapter 1153: Chapter 723: Arrangements

He smiled and said, ”It’s pretty good. Since he joined, the combat strength of our base has improved again.”

Li Yu didn’t quite understand what the Second Uncle meant, so he asked, ”Second Uncle, do you mean we should let him, like the jackals and ants, transport steel to Guang City?”

Second Uncle nodded and said, ”Yes, with the merit from transportation, at least it looks a bit fairer.”

Li Yu looked outside, as the evening slowly darkened, the lights on the wall lit up.

Thinking about Third Uncle and the others having been on two consecutive trips recently, each taking nearly a week, with hardly any rest.

So he said to Second Uncle, ”Alright, but let’s let Third Uncle and the others rest for two days before setting off again, or I can send someone else to transport instead.”

Second Uncle hesitated for a moment, recalling that Third Uncle had mentioned some incidents they encountered in Guang City.

Especially knowing that someone had been following them on the road.

So he asked, ”Then who do you think should lead the team over there?”

Uncle stood up and said to Li Yu, ”Why don’t I go? I’ll take Old Lv over there, and Zhu Xiao and Guo Peng have already gone twice, we can switch to another group.”

Li Yu glanced at Uncle, thought for a moment, and said, ”Perhaps let’s let Third Uncle take a break. It’s so far, and he is more familiar with the route. You would have to get familiar all over again if you go.”

Uncle didn’t know what to say when he heard Li Yu’s words for a moment.

After all, he was also a captain of the Armed Police Force, not lacking in combat power nor organizational and management capabilities.

But most of the time, he was leading Old Lv and the others in protective work at the Big Camphor Tree, which was relatively safe, but always watching others go out for adventurous work made him somewhat uncomfortable too.

Li Yu saw Uncle suddenly fell silent, and he could guess what Uncle was thinking with just a little thought.

So, he stood in front of Uncle and said seriously, ”Uncle, this is the Doomsday, deep down, I actually don’t trust outsiders.

I can’t entrust core power to outsiders. Second Uncle controls the management of the base, Xiao Yuan handles the warehouse, my mom manages the canteen, Second Uncle handles the factory, Xiao Hang oversees the mechanical research room.......

And you, along with Third Uncle and Tiezi, hold the most crucial military power.

For the Big Camphor Tree Base, and for me, the most important are the family and friends in the Inner City.

Therefore, in terms of base protection, I can’t entrust it to outsiders, not even Old Lv.

Although Third Uncle can also do it, he is more suitable for external operations. I’m not saying that you are unsuitable; of course, you can too.

You are all very important, Uncle. Your task is important, very important.

.......”

Li Yu candidly shared all this with Uncle.

The Second Uncle next to him glanced at the door and took the initiative to close the door of the duty room.

After a few seconds, Uncle took a deep breath and said to Li Yu, ”Xiao Yu, it’s actually nothing, I understand your efforts. I just want to do more. You’re right, I haven’t thought about it that much.”

Li Yu looked into Uncle’s eyes and could see that he was sincere.

He then nodded, smilingly said, ”Uncle, if Third Uncle and I both go out, the base will rely on you. The pressure will be on you then.”

Uncle smiled, indicating that you can rest assured.

”Now I’m still leading Old Lv, He Chao, and Old Bi to simulate exercises. Should there be an external invasion, or an outbreak of the Zombie Tide, we should know how to deal with it. With all the experience we have from the Zombie Tides, we have some confidence. Don’t worry.”

At the beginning of the Doomsday, Li Yu sometimes went out with Third Uncle on missions, or when they found an arsenal, they would go out to carry items. Thanks to Uncle being there at the base, they could have peace of mind.

With this matter settled, they agreed to let Third Uncle and the others rest for two days and then lead the team out to Guang City for steel transportation on the day after tomorrow.

So, Second Uncle took out the walkie-talkie to inform Third Uncle.

Third Uncle, who happened to be with the jackals entering the residential building in the First Outer City, replied with an okay.

Then he led the jackals into the residential building, and along the way, people kept greeting Third Uncle and Old Qin.

Soon, they arrived at Old Qin’s room.

Pushing open the door, Third Uncle swept a glance over the room, feeling it wasn’t very large, roughly estimating it to be only a little over ten square meters.

There were two bunk beds, enough for four people.

At this moment, He Chao rushed over and said to Third Uncle, ”Third Uncle, just across from Old Qin’s room there’s another room, but it’s smaller than Old Qin’s. Do you want to have a look?”

Third Uncle nodded and said, ”You can arrange it as you see fit.”

So He Chao opened up the room across the way, which had two metal single beds in it.

These beds were simple to make, with four thick metal frames underneath, on top of which were ten or so thinner metal boards covered with a wooden board.

The whole room was about seven or eight square meters. With two beds in it, there was just a small table and nothing else, as the space couldn’t accommodate much more.

Third Uncle introduced He Chao to the jackals, and the jackals cupped their fists as a gesture to the man before them.

Then He Chao brought in some daily necessities, basic items like toothbrushes for the jackals.

Having been at the Big Camphor Tree Base for so long, it could be said that Li Yu was essentially in charge.

And as Third Uncle was Li Yu’s elder, as well as the General Captain of the external combat battalion, He Chao naturally treated Third Uncle with courtesy.

Therefore, as soon as the jackals and Third Uncle arrived, he had prepared the room and the necessities for them early on.

The jackals thanked He Chao, saying, ”Thank you for your trouble.”

He Chao waved it off, indicating it was nothing.

Then he said to Third Uncle, ”Third Uncle, I’ll be off then, call me if you need anything.”

Third Uncle smiled and said, ”Alright. You go ahead.”

Third Uncle took the jackals on a tour inside the residential building, showing them where to drink water, use the restroom, and take a shower.

On the way, they met Old Bi, Lao Yi, and Hua Qian, and introductions were made.

Then he brought the jackals back to the room, looked at Old Qin and the others, and said, ”Alright, jackals, you settle in here first. I’ll head back and bring some food over later. Let’s have a good get-together.”

Seeing Old Zhou in Old Qin’s room, he nodded and said with a smile, ”Old Zhou, join us for the meal. We’ll have some drinks later!”

Old Zhou, who joined as a lathe operator after retirement, was considered a core personnel in the factory, though just slightly under Old Qin, serving as a deputy.

A fan of drinking, Old Zhou was delighted at the news.

He responded with a laugh, ”That sounds great. Thank you, Director Li.”

Third Uncle waved his hand and then started heading towards the Inner City.

........

Next to Gan City.

Xiang Province, Chen City.

A voice of complaint came, ”Big brother, we’ve reached here, why are you still ordering us to go back? We’re almost at Gan City.”

”Xiao Hu, Father told us that we must be extra careful on this trip. Our Western Alliance can’t afford any more mistakes. You... sigh.”

Gan Long sighed countless times on the road.

He still remembered when his second brother came back from behind them with a sulking face.

It was truly annoying.

Annoying to death.

By the time they had discovered Second Brother, they were already halfway there.

Later, they found out it was Second Brother holding a gun and threatening two subordinates.

Truly a sin.

He wasn’t afraid of anything except his impulsive Second Brother. If he acted rashly, it would let the enemy discover them, and all would be lost.
