Chapter 109 Gold Shop

  Hearing Guo Yun's words, Tang Zheng was shocked.

  Arsenal drawing completed!

   In this way, the cost of bullets can be reduced.

  The high cost of bullets has always been Tang Zheng's heart disease, and soldiers can't give full play to their strengths in battle.

  Although there are more than 100 rounds of bullets per day, it is definitely enough under normal circumstances, even for fighting people, but it is not enough for fighting zombies.

  There are too many zombies in this world, ranging from hundreds of thousands to millions, and there are never too many bullets.

  So upon hearing Guo Yun's words, Tang Zheng returned to Zhuguang City by plane before he even had time to see the corpses in Fengcheng.

  Back to the city, it was already brightly lit night, Tang Zheng directly landed in the inner city, where Guo Yun was already waiting.

  Seeing Tang Zheng's arrival, he immediately handed over a blueprint as if offering a treasure.

   "General, this is the blueprint of the arsenal. After you use it, the building options of the arsenal will be added to the system."

   Tang Zheng didn't say much, and immediately used the blueprint.

   Sure enough, in the building page of the system, there is an option of arsenal.

  【Arsenal: The factory has three bullet production lines, which produce general-purpose bullets for pistols, general-purpose bullets for rifles and light machine guns, and general-purpose bullets for heavy machine guns and sniper rifles. It has shell production lines, rocket launcher production lines, and landmine production lines. 】

  【When producing bullets, copper supply can reduce capital cost by 60%, and gunpowder supply can reduce production cost by 30%. 】

  【The arsenal has its own 100 technicians, which do not occupy the number of troops, but they need to provide food and logistics support. The price is fifty thousand gold. 】

  Seeing the introduction about the arsenal, Tang Zheng let out a long breath.

   Finally got it, finally able to solve the problem of bullet cost.

  Currently Tang Zheng’s pistol bullets are 0.1 gold per round, and rifle and light machine gun bullets are 0.2 gold per round.

  12.7 mm bullets are 0.4 gold per round.

  This is also the reason why Tang Zheng spent too much money in fighting, as soon as the machine gun fired, he was worth ten thousand taels of gold.

  If enough copper and gunpowder are provided according to the system conditions, the cost of bullet production will be directly reduced by 90%.

  Even if the purchase of gunpowder itself costs some money, it will reduce the cost by at least 85%.

   In this way, it is tantamount to greatly improving the combat effectiveness of Tang Zheng's troops.

  Like today's battle, it can be fought almost from morning to night, and the number of zombies wiped out is definitely more than 80,000.

   Up to 200,000 is possible, and the Peace Bridge can be penetrated in two days.

  So even though Tang Zheng currently only has 80,000 gold, he took out 50,000 without hesitation and bought the arsenal.

  A military important place like an arsenal naturally needs to be built in the inner city.

   Tang Zheng also planned the inner city area long ago. Although there are only his own official residence and wind power plant here, the basic roads and facilities have been constructed.

   Arriving at the location that he had chosen long ago, Tang Zheng built an arsenal.

  After the arrangement was completed, a factory area appeared.

  Here comes a hundred staff members, there is no need for Tang Zheng to send people into production.

  The production lines, workshops, storage warehouses, etc. are all available here. The personnel are already in place, and the electricity is also connected, but there is no production because raw materials are needed.

   Tang Zheng turned on the system again and looked at the resource page.

   Although copper was not a key acquisition before, it is still an important material. Any survivor or adventurer team brings it back, and the City of Light will accept it.

  So Tang Zheng currently has more than 60 tons of copper as a material.

   "Use the more than 60 tons first, and then issue a copper purchase task on the trading floor."

   "Okay general, we are already doing it. Now some adventurer teams have gone out of the city to find copper. It is estimated that we will be able to bring some back within a day or two."

   "Okay, with copper, the cost of bullets is reduced by 60%, and then only gunpowder is needed."

  Tang Zheng bought 10,000 gold gunpowder in the system and handed it to the person in charge of the arsenal.

  With the raw materials, the arsenal began to work overtime overnight.

   Tang Zheng watched this process for a while.

  The efficiency of the workers is very high. Two hours later, the first batch, a box of 1,000 rounds of heavy machine gun bullets, has been produced and twenty boxes have been produced.

   "General, this bullet can be sent to the resource recycling station for storage, or it can be stored in reality. You can take it out of the resource recycling station at any time, and the real ones need to be carried by soldiers."

   Tang Zheng nodded: "Then put these in the recycle bin first, and just take them out when I need them."

   "Good general."

   A truck came over and started loading bullets.

  It was already midnight, and Tang Zheng couldn't rest yet. He let the plane set off again, and took advantage of the darkness to head straight for Fengcheng.

   When it was near Fengcheng, it was already dawn.

  By the light of dawn, Tang Zheng finally found the group of corpses.

  The group of corpses seems to have grown a bit bigger, and the exact number cannot be counted, but it is definitely more than before.

  And the group of corpses has already left Fengcheng for more than 100 kilometers at this moment, and they are already heading north.

  Looking down vaguely from above the plane, Tang Zheng discovered the specific changes in the group of corpses.

   That is, among this group, the number of mutated zombies has greatly increased.

  Although the group of corpses was large before, the number of mutated zombies was only between 1% and 2%.

  But it's different now. Looking down from a height, mutant zombies can be seen almost everywhere.

  In the dense crowd of corpses, there are often some big armored zombies and fast agile walking among them. Many of the mutated zombies have even evolved to a certain extent, showing signs of evolution to the second level of mutation.

  In the entire group of corpses, mutant zombies accounted for more than 5%!

   This is a very scary number. If there are one million zombies in this group of corpses, the mutated zombies will exceed 50,000.

   What's more, there are many zombies that are close to mutation. As the battle progresses, many of these things will definitely evolve again.

   And Tang Zheng was still in the team, sporadically found a few orangutan zombies and lickers.

  Although the number of these two kinds is very small, being able to find them in such a huge group of corpses proves that these two kinds of zombies are definitely not as simple as one or two.

  As for the corpse king, Tang Zheng has never discovered it. This thing is hidden so deeply that it is impossible to find it at all.

   After watching for a while, Tang Zheng ordered to return.

  There will be no accidents this time, the corpses are heading towards the City of Chasing Light, and it is estimated that they will never stop halfway.

  That is to say, after five days, this terrifying group of corpses will reach the City of Chasing Light.

   Before this group of corpses arrived, Tang Zheng still had a lot of things to do.

  First of all, he wants to take down Shuanglin County as soon as possible, and get funds from the gold store to prepare for the war.

  The other thing is that he has to settle matters on the side of the alliance, after all, the alliance still occupies the south gate of Chasing Light City.

  He didn't think about the situation on the side of the alliance for the time being. First, he had to take down Shuanglin County.

  Leaving from Fengcheng, Tang Zheng, who almost didn't sleep a night, returned to the front line again.

  Even if he was flying, it would be the morning of the next day when he came to Shuanglin County again.

   After a brief rest, the next day's battle will continue.

  The battle this time was even more intense than the first day.

  Because the Light Chasing Army has an arsenal here, the arsenal worked overtime last night to produce a large amount of ammunition.

   This immediately relieved Tang Zheng's financial pressure. Because of the raw materials, Tang Zheng basically didn't spend a penny today, and he produced better results than yesterday.

   With sufficient ammunition, most of the soldiers have been upgraded to three stars. Today, from early morning to dusk, the battle lasted for twelve hours!

  Compared to yesterday's record of annihilating 80,000 zombies, today's 180,000 were annihilated in one fell swoop!

  Fighting to the end, the corpses of the zombies almost blocked the river under the bridge, which forced Tang Zheng to end the battle, and dispatched flamethrower fighters to start burning a large number of zombie corpses.

  Thick black smoke burned for almost a night, and at the end, Tang Zheng simply asked people to pour gasoline on the corpse.

   After a lot of tossing, the river finally resumed its flow.

   This was the hardest day, but the achievements were remarkable. The number of corpses on the other side of the river had decreased significantly.

   Almost all the zombies in the vicinity of the new urban area were attracted here, and some zombies were located farther away.

  The battle on the third day was much easier than the first and second day.

  The soldiers took turns to fight for a whole morning. At noon, when the ammunition was refreshed, Tang Zheng stopped the bombardment of the cannon and began to use guns to shoot.

  The sporadic zombies died one by one under the shooting of the soldiers, and the riverside gradually became quiet.

  When the last zombie was eliminated by the sniper, the battle in Shuanglin County, which lasted for half a month, finally came to an end.

  The cement floor here has turned dark brown, and the dirty blood has seeped into the ground, and it seems that it will not disperse for a long time.

  The funds here are also not easy to collect, and there was no time to collect them on the second day, and they were simply collected on the third day. The deaths of almost 300,000 zombies in total only brought more than 20,000 gold to Tang Zheng.

  In the river under the bridge, there are still zombies surviving in the shallow water, half of their bodies are exposed on the water, still roaring feebly.

  The stomachs of the zombies that were flooded with water were all swollen like big balloons, as if they were about to explode at any time. Such zombies were basically washed away by the water later, and they didn't know where they went.

   Tang Zheng didn't have time to pay attention to the zombies in the water, even if he worked hard there, he could still collect some funds.

  His attention is now focused on the gold shop across the bridge.

  When the tank drove across the bridge full of bones and ashes, Tang Zheng finally entered the core area of ​​Shuanglin County for the first time.

   Tang Zheng is almost sure that from the end of the world until now, no civilian survivors have ever done this, that is, all the way into the core area of ​​the county with hard steel.

   But he did!

   Tang Zheng came to the gate of the gold store, and instinctively touched the back.

  Ning Yuwei understood, and handed the breaking hammer that had been on the back seat of the motorcycle to Tang Zheng.

  Tang Zheng wanted to withdraw his hand, but it was too late, so he froze for a moment, looked at the battering hammer in his hand, and looked at the eyes of thousands of soldiers around him looking at him, finally bit the bullet and got out of the car.

  Come to the door of the gold store, pick up the battering hammer, smash the door lock with one hammer, and the door will open!

  The surrounding soldiers all showed sincere admiration at this moment.

   This admiration is not adulterated at all, because they know that among all the people in the army, I am afraid that no one is more proficient in using this sledgehammer than the general.

   This is the third change, for the fifty-month ticket
