Chapter 222 Weapon Rental

There is a regime in the barrel of a gun. This sentence is very reasonable. Especially in troubled times, power is not as good as a gun, and some people are not as good as a soldier. Whoever controls the army has the right to speak!

The end of the world is more chaotic than in troubled times, but at the same time, the control of military power is more important!

After contact with Chen Guorong, although he didn't know much and the other party didn't care about Li Ye, Li Ye still knew a lot of information about the overall situation today.

"It seems that the real masters of this base are several leaders of the military region. Although I heard that several provincial axe leaders and M city leaders are still there, they are only responsible for the regular work of the base, and the real decision-making power is not in their hands."

When Li Ye came back from Chen Guorong, he immediately told everyone some information. First of all, the status of soldiers in this base is very high! Very high!

To put it a little hard, the survivors of A-level treatment in the base have to give up three points when they see the soldiers.

In fact, this is very normal. The base is now maintained and protected by the army. Of course, enough attention should be paid to those who protect themselves. It is abnormal to be held by several politicians like P City.

This is good news. At least in general, people in the army hold more power than those politicians.

"It seems that several leaders of the military region are not fools..." Li Luoki, who rarely expresses his opinions, occasionally comes out a few words.

After a long time, everyone also found that this middle-aged uncle seemed to have no good impression on the official people of the political axe, and even had a faint hatred.

Although I'm curious, it's not easy to ask more about this kind of thing.

"Well, for the time being, the operation of the base is normal. The military and political division is very detailed. The people of the political axe are responsible for the maintenance of the base, including all kinds of water and electricity, the distribution of food, and then appease more than 200,000 people in the base."

Those people don't know how long they have been doing these things. They are very skilled and can also see why this originally desolate town is now so lively that it can't be crowded.

And now, because of the large population, some people can be seen building new houses with some simple materials. After all, the town, which had only tens of thousands of people registered, suddenly turned into more than 200,000 people, and it must be impossible to live there. Even if you can use everything that can be used, it can't be used.

Fortunately, there is a cement factory in the town, and the survival is very sufficient. For the time being, I don't worry about raw materials. Moreover, the town has widened a large area and built a circle of walls.

Now you can see that some houses are being built in the encircle open spaces.

These are all political axe people who are responsible, but they are only responsible and have no real power. All raw materials, water plants, power plants, and more important food storage points and arsenals are under the control of the army.

These things are strictly distributed every day, and the people of the political axe are just an executor. They take as much as they give them.

Military power, food and weapons are all in the hands of the leaders of the military region. No wonder the people in charge now are not politicians. But that's good, at least don't let those fools mess up the base.

At the beginning, the materials were relatively sufficient. Although I don't know how much, from the situation of the people in the whole base, it should not have reached the end.

"But today I found a little word from Chen Guorong. Maybe our opportunity has come..."

Although the base is very stable now, the ruler of this base seems to be smart and knows the allusion of sitting in the mountains and preparing for a rainy day.

It is very difficult to maintain a small town of more than 200,000 people. Although it can't be compared with the city it used to be, and it's not even as good as a county, it's also the population of a big city in ancient times!

The daily consumption of more than 200,000 people is a huge number of problems.

Now the electricity of the whole base is supplied by a small town and a coal-fired power plant. Although it is backed by the mountains of the coal mine, the coal resources here have long been depleted.

Then there is water. I heard that it is extracted groundwater. There seems to be no problem for the time being. There is also a sewage treatment plant in the town, which is barely recycled.

And food, in the final analysis, this thing is the most difficult place now. There is no output, only consumption. Even if the resources of the whole M city were empty, there were more than 200,000 people! How long can it last?

And some people in the base are still big fish and meat, which can't take too long. There is also the consumption of military weapons. Chen Guorong didn't say anything about this, but obviously there will not be enough stock.

"Today, I saw something from Lieutenant Colonel Chen Guorong. The base has the same system as ours in P City, encouraging the survivors in the base to form their own teams to find supplies, and the recovered materials do not need to be handed in at all, and they can keep them by themselves!"

This made everyone surprised. They thought that there would be a hunting system. After all, as long as they were not idiots, they would not eat nothing.

But what you find can be kept and can't be handed over. Is the person in power here so good?

"It seems that the boss of our base is a good man?" Li Wei said in a joking tone.

"Don't be happy. At first, I thought the same as you, but after asking carefully, I realized that the truth was not what we thought."

It turned out that Li Ye knew after asking Chen Guorong that although the policy of the base was to keep what he found by himself, it was returned with his life. The political axe would not be collected and he won the hearts of the whole base.

But those survivors who go out to hunt are actually not easy, although they can more or less find some good things to come back. Food can be eaten by yourself, and some luxury goods such as tobacco, alcohol and cosmetics can be sold at some special markets in the base, or in exchange for what you need.

However, a large part of those materials have flowed directly into the hands of the authorities of the base in one way.

"Weapon rental!" Li Ye said a strange name.

Under his explanation, everyone finally knows what it means. Some survivors who go out to hunt can't go out without taking anything. Some necessary tools and weapons still need to be prepared.

And obviously, some military jeeps are the best choice for military firearms. But of course, the people in the army will not use it for you. But it can be rented.

And the rental fee is those materials! Among them, food and luxury goods are fine. As long as you follow a price list set by the army, you can even rent a Type 98 heavy tank!

Of course, that price can make people shake their heads directly...
