The Zerg Emperor of the End of the World - Chapter 488
c488 Weihai base
“Erbao, come here quickly, let’s go to the ditch to catch fish!”
In the planting area outside the city of Weihai Base, a group of ten-year-old children cheered and ran along the newly repaired road to the green planting area like happy deer.
“Hey, you all slow down!”
A middle-aged man with gray hair shouted. The tired and hard life after the end of the world made him look like he had entered old age early. He rode his favorite bicycle and followed the group of children.
“Uncle Keke, you are too slow. Why don’t you give me your bicycle to play with? Maybe I can carry you.”
A child said mischievously, and the other children laughed and looked at the bicycle where Uncle Keke sat with envy.
“Go away, my precious thing will be broken in a few minutes!”
Uncle Keke pressed the bell subconsciously. This bicycle was the only thing he had. He worked hard in the planting area and won the third place in the district’s full attendance award with his diligence. It was one of the extra rewards he got. The survivors around him who could only travel on foot were very envious. It was also the thing that Uncle Keke was most proud of.
When the children saw that Uncle Keke did not give up, they gave up Uncle Keke’s toys and rushed into the planting area happily. They jumped into the two-meter-wide shallow ditch with buckets and basins, and leaned over to catch the small fish and shrimps in it.
There were naturally soldiers stationed near the planting area, but Uncle Keke was one of the models of the planting area in WH City, and he had his guarantee. The children only caught some insignificant small fish and did not damage the crops, so the soldiers turned a blind eye and let these children go in!
There are some fish and shrimp fry that have escaped from the fish pond in the ditches of the planting area. They survived tenaciously here. After being caught by the farmers working here, there are not many left. Many stones need to be turned over to find some fish that have escaped.
However, it must be said that children have advantages in this regard. Many small fish and shrimps that adults cannot catch often cannot escape the small hands of these children. The muddy water in the ditch is rolling, and small shrimps and crabs are caught by the children and thrown into the bucket to be taken back to make river soup and delicious snacks.
“Lao Ke! Bring the children to beg for money again, and you are not afraid that the supervisor will fine you.”
Many farmers working nearby saw this scene and laughed and joked.
Uncle Keke laughed and said, “It’s nothing to deduct a little salary. These kids are suffering! Look at how thin they are. If we don’t give them some nutrition, our next generation will be shorter than the Japanese. Besides, the supervisor is a good man. He also instructed this, otherwise those soldiers would not be so obedient. Oh, by the way, where is the supervisor? Why can’t I see him!”
“The supervisor went out early this morning. I heard that a big shot is coming today. The supervisor went to greet him.”
“Yes, it is said that someone from above is coming.”
A farmer pointed to the sky mysteriously, his face full of awe.
“You mean the Lishan Base.”
Uncle Keke was shocked. Although WH City had been annexed by the Lishan Base for more than a month, it was fortunately preserved and not revoked, becoming a branch base of the Lishan Base in Ludong Province.
But Uncle Keke still felt the scene of the killing vividly.
WH City is located on the coastline, and it knows little about the newly emerged Lishan Base in Ludong Province. At that time, the leader of WH City chose to resist rather than surrender to the Zerg army, and was unwilling to give up the power in his hands, resulting in the destruction of the city walls of WH City, the killing of tens of thousands of soldiers, and the corpses scattered all over the beach.
This made him, a survivor who was used to seeing life and death, feel scalp tingling, and he was grateful and awed by the Lishan Base that brought them a better life.
“Well, otherwise the supervisor wouldn’t have run to greet him.”
The farmer put down the hoe in his hand, wiped the sweat from his forehead and said with emotion: “Now our lives are getting better and better, thanks to the Lishan Base. The job we are doing in the planting area is also given by the Lishan Base. The original WH city leader has never been so kind. He gave us wages and food subsidies for our work.”
“Yes, yes! Now the food we distribute for free every day has increased a lot. The leader of the Lishan Base, Wang Jin, is really a good person!”
“Also, I heard recently that a free hospital is going to be opened in the city. We won’t be afraid of dying from illness in the future.”
“A school is being built in the west of the city. It will be completed before the end of the year. At that time, these children can go to school.”
Speaking of the Lishan Base, the farmers became interested and talked about the good life under the leadership of the Lishan Base.
Uncle Keke, a native of Weihai, took a look at the bicycle he was sitting on. If it weren’t for the Lishan Base, this most precious bicycle of his would not have fallen into his hands. It can be seen that the leadership of the Lishan Base has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and its position in Ludong Province has become increasingly unshakable.
As he was talking, a convoy suddenly drove over from outside the planting area, with a mighty giant tank leading the way, and armored vehicles on alert around, protecting a Hummer in the center, and quickly entered the planting area.
Swish!
The convoy stopped in the planting area. Hundreds of soldiers carried energy rifles on their shoulders. They did not relax because of the environment. They watched every move in the planting area. It was obvious that they were elite soldiers.
Several figures also walked out of the Hummer. Uncle Keke, who had sharp eyes, saw that in addition to the supervisor he knew, there was also Mayor He who was parachuted from Lishan Base to Weihai Base as the leader. The army called him General He. It was said that he was a general with a large number of troops in Lishan Base.
However, now these two people have become supporting roles, and a cold young man is the real core figure. This person must be the big man who came from Lishan Base, Uncle Keke guessed in his heart.
The group of people stayed for a while, and seemed to notice the child catching fish in the ditch, and turned around and walked here.
“Bad!” Uncle Keke’s face changed. How could he forget about this? The planting area stipulates that outsiders are not allowed to enter.
Normally, it was nothing. The director of the planting area was familiar with him and would not offend him. Now the leader of the Lishan Base came to inspect. He was about to be caught.
Thinking of the siege battle more than a month ago and the thousands of floating corpses on the beach, Uncle Keke felt his legs tremble. If the Lishan Base really blamed him, he, the “main culprit”, would definitely be blamed.
However, these children were innocent. Looking at those lively and cute children, Uncle Keke had already made a decision in his heart.
