Chapter 183 Armored Train (3rd watch, make up yesterday's)

  Tang Zheng was stunned when he heard the news.

  Qinzhou Survivors Alliance? When was this established?

  Liao Yucheng actually became the chairman of the parliament, and now he accepted Liu Yibang's recruitment and became a division commander of the Fifth Army.

   Tang Zheng still clearly remembered what happened when he left Qinzhou.

  A conflict at the trading conference at the beginning killed most of the leaders of the survivors in Qinzhou, and a big reshuffle came.

  But Tang Zheng wanted to leave at that time, so he didn't stop in Qinzhou.

  In fact, the biggest beneficiaries of that conflict were three people, namely Liao Yucheng, Bai Ling, and Xie Lanlan.

  The rest of the leaders of the large and medium-sized bases were almost completely dead. These three picked up a peach that fell on the ground, taking a considerable advantage.

  They were able to have what they are today because they followed Tang Zheng closely.

  After Tang Zheng left Qinzhou, he traveled northward for nearly 2,000 kilometers, passed Fengcheng, and came to Zhuguang City to establish a base, and basically lost contact with Qinzhou.

  Actually, when Tang Zheng left, he and the three of them left contact information on the radio, but only Bai Ling from the Qinzhou Airport base contacted Tang Zheng and reported the movement of Chen Feilong's corpse group to Tang Zheng.

  Except for Bai Ling, Xie Lanlan and Liao Yucheng had no contact with Tang Zheng.

   Tang Zheng still remembers the scene of several people following him, and the scene of Liao Yucheng spreading the red carpet for him until the entrance of the trading hall is still vivid in his mind.

   Unexpectedly, the same person as the younger brother in the past has now become the marquis of the empire and even the teacher.

  Of course, according to the news, he, the division commander, just kneaded the survivors of Qinzhou together. In terms of combat effectiveness and weapon equipment, he should not be as good as the real Royal Army.

   This matter sounded like a good thing at first glance, but Tang Zheng felt something different.

  The Fifth Army had previously said that it would enter Qinzhou, Fengcheng and other places, but it was launched at this time. Not only did it take down Qinzhou through a recruiting, but it also entered Fengcheng.

  This juncture is so coincidental, it happened when I built checkpoints and kept enclosing land.

  If Liu Yibang is allowed to take Fengcheng, then his way to the south will be completely blocked.

  Liu Yibang took both the east and the south, and there was no room for him to expand, so it was completely useless to upgrade the brigade commander.

  Even if you go west by yourself, occupy a large desert area, and make up a territory of 500,000 square kilometers, this population is far from enough.

   Drain from the bottom of the pot.

   This sentence tasted in Tang Zheng's mouth for a while, and he felt that it couldn't be more appropriate.

   Things have come to this point, no matter whether the empire did it on purpose or not, they have already stood on the opposite side of Tang Zheng.

  Other things can be tolerated temporarily, but it is absolutely unbearable to hinder oneself from upgrading to brigade commander.

  Qinzhou has become Liu Yibang's sphere of influence, so Fengcheng must not be given up.

  On November 12th, Tang Zheng came to the frontline battlefield in Qingquan County.

  After ten consecutive days of fighting, the recovery of Qingquan County has reached the most critical stage.

  There were more than 4 million zombies in the entire county, and nearly one million had been killed in the early stage. In the past ten days, another 3 million zombies were wiped out by the Light Chasing Army.

  Currently, the number of zombies in the entire county is only 700,000 to 800,000 in the south-central urban area.

   This area is a commercial area in Qingquan, and there are nearly ten jewelry stores in the whole county concentrated here.

  During this period of time, the continuous construction of checkpoints and the addition of city guard battalions exhausted all the funds in Tang Zheng's hands.

  But he still didn't come to withdraw the funds from Qingquan, in order to get a big one at a time.

   Today's battle has come to an end, Tang Zheng came to Qingquan.

   Luo Fei of the First Field Battalion handed over a large sum of money to Tang Zheng.

   Continuously killing zombies and collecting jewelry stores, this sum of money is very large. Tang Zheng exchanged it in one go, and he directly harvested a huge amount of 9 million!

   And there is still a batch of funds in this county. After eliminating the last zombies, it is estimated that they can get several million.

  Tang Zheng received such a large amount of funds, and he didn't rush into the army immediately, but chose to continue to command the troops to fight.

   It will take two or three days to win the scene, let’s talk about it after it’s settled.

   Arrived at Qingquan, after two days of fighting, the number of zombies became less and less.

  At noon on the third day, after Chen Feilong controlled another group of zombies and let the light-chasing army wipe them out, there were still tens of thousands of corpses gathered in a square in the south of the city.

  After the bullets of all soldiers were refreshed, Tang Zheng commanded the troops and launched the final offensive.

  After the salvo of the artillery, the onslaught of the armored troops, and the precise bursts of the soldiers, the battle lasted for more than three hours, and finally came to an end.

   So far, the entire Qingquan County has been restored, and there are only a few sporadic zombies in the urban area, staying in the room, or stuck in the car and unable to get out.

  Tang Zheng also temporarily ignored those sporadic zombies, but commanded the troops to collect funds immediately.

  Before dark, all the jewelry shops in the county, as well as the jewelry on the zombies, came into Tang Zheng's hands.

   Another six million income!

  Tang Zheng now has as much as 15 million funds, which is more than before he was promoted to head.

  Looking at this huge number, Tang Zheng was very excited.

   With this money, his troop strength can take a big step forward.

   And at this time, Guo Yun also came to Tang Zheng's side, and handed Tang Zheng the second drawing after he was promoted to head.

  【Train station: The price is 500,000 gold. 】

  Although Tang Zheng has not yet laid the railway tracks outside the city, it is also because of the constraints of funds.

   Now that he has money in his hand, Guo Yun's drawing can be said to have come very timely.

   After getting the map, Tang Zheng asked the field troops to continue collecting supplies in Qingquan, while he himself returned to Chasing Light City by helicopter.

  Since the empire was able to contact Tang Zheng through radio waves, Tang Zheng has been under some pressure.

  If the empire came to discuss with him properly, Tang Zheng would not necessarily have to fight against the empire. After all, it is the end of the world and the land is sparsely populated, so he can live a good life no matter what.

  However, the empire did not do this, and instead used other methods to compress its own living space, which made Tang Zheng a little unbearable.

  So now that he has money, he wants to build immediately and immediately raise troops.

   Back in Chasing Light City, Tang Zheng came to the reserved seat at the train station.

  The railway station is at the northeast city gate of the inner city. This gate is specially used for trains.

  Guo Yun followed Tang Zheng and offered advice to Tang Zheng.

"General, for the construction of the railway station, it is best to build a section of railway track in advance. It is night now, and it is a good time for construction. I suggest that you start from the northeast city gate and lay a section of railway that can connect to the Taiping logging camp. That is the nearest railway to us, so that our trains can go to various railway stations in the surrounding area through this railway."

  Taiping logging camp is located southwest of Zhuguang City, only about 30 kilometers away.

  Because it is rich in wood, there is a railway passing here, which can be regarded as a small village.

  The zombies here have not been used by the light chasing army, they have already been cleaned up by the adventurer team.

  The supplies here have also been scrapped long ago, and now almost no one comes here.

  Tang Zheng immediately laid a railway according to Guo Yun's suggestion.

  The price of the railway is 10 gold per meter, and one kilometer is 10,000 gold.

  Thirty kilometers is 300,000 gold, which is a little expensive.

   But this is nothing to Tang Zheng, who now has 15 million funds, and directly buys the railway.

  Guo Yun has planned the route, and it is all along the wilderness, but a railway bridge needs to be built on the Fengming River halfway, which requires an additional 100,000 yuan of funds.

  400,000 funds were distributed, and the railway was laid.

  The farthest point has been connected to the railway of the lumber field.

  After the paving was completed, Tang Zheng spent another 500,000 gold to build the railway station.

  After placing it, a train station appeared.

  This is a train station, not a high-speed rail station, and there is no such modern waiting hall.

  The architectural style of the waiting hall is a bit more like the end of the last century, and it is mainly sturdy and practical.

  The high platform is about 1.5 meters long and a full kilometer in length.

  There are three-meter-high barbed wire guardrails on both sides, and outsiders are prohibited from entering the platform.

   There are four rails in the platform, which are brand new and white.

  One of the rails stretched beyond the northeast city gate, automatically connecting with the rails laid by Tang Zheng before.

   There is a high dome on the platform, which can shelter from wind and rain.

  The railway has an internal control room, which can control the rails to change lanes at the interchange and direct the train to run.

   At the end of the city, there is even a garage for trains, which can be stored when the train is not in use.

  Moreover, the railway also has 50 staff members who are responsible for daily work such as railway maintenance on weekdays.

   Now everything is ready, only the train is missing.

   At this time, the system prompts.

  【Congratulations to the general for completing the construction of the railway station. Now the train has been installed. Please check it out, general. 】

  Tang Zheng heard the words and opened the system page.

   Vehicle Here, there are three more vehicles.

  【Passenger train: 15 carriages, 120 kilometers per hour, priced at 300,000 gold. 】

  【Freight train: 30 carriages, 90 kilometers per hour, priced at 300,000 gold. 】

  【Armored train: ten carriages, 100 kilometers per hour, priced at 1,000,000 gold. 】

   After reading it, Tang Zheng felt that the price of buses and trains was not bad, and 300,000 gold was acceptable.

  But this armored train has only ten carriages, and the price is as high as one million gold, which is really too expensive.

  But experience told him that expensive is naturally expensive for a reason.

  So Tang Zheng still clicked and bought an armored train.

   One million funds were spent in an instant, and after a while, the armored train appeared on the rails.

  When the beast-like train appeared, Tang Zheng finally understood why this thing was so expensive.

  【Armored train: There are ten carriages and a locomotive in total. It is powered by an internal combustion engine. The whole car is covered with composite armor, which can resist any attack by any weapon with a caliber below 110 mm. 】

  【The vehicle comes with 20 train crew members who are responsible for the maintenance and driving of the train. The front of the car is equipped with a radar that can scan the situation within a radius of 50 kilometers, and the maximum battery life is 3000 kilometers. 】

  【The first and second carriages of the vehicle are artillery carriages. Each carriage is equipped with four 203mm caliber howitzers, and 160 training shells are obtained every day. Equipped with eight 25mm caliber chain cannons, 3360 training shells are obtained every day. 】

  【The third and fourth sections are missile carriages. Each train is equipped with eight Iskander short-range tactical missiles with a maximum range of 500 kilometers. Equipped with four warrior surface-to-air missiles, the maximum range is 60 kilometers and the maximum shooting height is 30 kilometers. Equipped with two rocket launching pods, with 120 rockets, the maximum range is 30 kilometers. 】

[The fifth car is a passenger car, including ordinary cabins and deluxe cabins. The ordinary cabin can carry 50 people, and the deluxe cabin can take 10 people. There is a luxurious bed that can accommodate three people to rest at the same time. There are refrigerators, Living facilities such as bathrooms and kitchens. 】

[The sixth to tenth sections are all transport carriages. The carriages are divided into upper and lower parts. Five tanks or armored vehicles can be parked in the lower part, and the upper half space can be converted into sleeping berths. It can transport 50 soldiers, and each carriage is equipped with ten 14.5 mm caliber Gatling machine gun, the machine gun is fixed on the vehicle and cannot be disassembled, and each machine gun provides 600 rounds of training ammunition per day. 】

  【Note: Armored trains are special combat units and cannot be upgraded. 】

  After reading all the data of this armored train, Tang Zheng took a deep breath.

   No wonder the price is as high as one million, this is a war behemoth.

   With this thing, Tang Zheng can break through the restrictions of the road network, and can travel through almost any city, and the corpses can no longer block his way.
