If it were a human being under normal conditions, after working at high intensity for so many days, he would probably be making plans to take a weekend off at 955.
But the most amazing thing about people is that when they are in a better situation, they always want to be lazy and live a more comfortable and comfortable life.
But once the situation worsens, human beings can always quickly adjust themselves and adapt to the new situation.
Even though I was living a life of 897, no one complained, and everything transitioned naturally.
At least within the Zhou family, no one has suffered a psychological breakdown because they cannot bear such a high-intensity life.
Although Zhou Lingsheng took the initiative and gave the families of yesterday's victims a day off, almost no one wanted this holiday.
After the funeral, the martyrs basically returned to their respective posts, working even crazier than others.
At nine o'clock in the morning, the Zhou family action team was restored to full strength, with a total number of 480 people. It once again divided its troops into multiple groups and took action.
The Zhou family started another busy day.
The focus of today's work has changed slightly compared to yesterday.
Yesterday, most of the members' work was focused on collecting supplies. Only two teams led by Luo Xun and Tang Dahe, led by Sun Yingjun, were responsible for sweeping the building.
Today, the relatively simple work of collecting supplies was handed over to new combat members who had only experienced last night's battle once, and the transportation work was also handed over to many new members who had just arrived at Zhou's house yesterday.
The remaining nearly 300 elites were divided into six teams, led by six other over-limits besides Zhou You, Yuan Yike and Lin Yao. Each team had nearly 50 veterans, forming
Building Sweeping Team.
Each building-sweeping brigade is supplemented by two hundred engineers.
In this way, each building-sweeping brigade formed five building-sweeping squads composed of ten veterans and forty engineers.
The task of the building sweeping team is to further improve the efficiency of building sweeping.
Zhou Lingsheng's order is that all the new areas must be swept away within today.
Tomorrow at the latest, the Zhou family's team must move into the larger old district of the county to help the county government share the pressure.
As for the execution standard of the sweep, it is necessary to ensure that no one is missed in any blind spot, and no rat is left in any blind spot.
All adult animals, such as cats, dogs, and possible weasels, are driven away with the goal of driving them out of the city. Those who cannot be driven away are killed, and all pups are captured.
During specific operations, each team must also pay attention to the combination of air and ground, and make better use of its own mechanized equipment.
Although the consumption of ammunition was extremely high last night, as the production teams on night duty worked all night long, each team still brought enough supplies, so it is important not to save ammunition in actual combat.
In addition, the Zhou family also added an improved Langya No. 2 airship.
Yesterday, Momoxin used some travel suggestions, dismantled a sports watch, found some spare parts, and added a barometric altitude meter and the corresponding PLC automatic control function to the new airship.
The intelligent navigation system cannot be installed yet.
The solar charging device that Momoxin really wanted to install has not yet been realized.
However, the airship's new automatic height-locking function has greatly reduced the difficulty of control.
Therefore, Zhou You now has two special operations teams under his command that have strong maneuverability and can complete squad-level precision delivery in a short period of time.
Zhouyou himself led one of the detachments, consisting of twenty people.
Yuan Yike led another group of 20 people.
The main mission of these two teams is no longer to search and rescue personnel, but to serve as air mobility forces, ready to land for support at any time.
Provide strong military support to ground operations forces.
The main activity area of these two teams, Zhou You and Yuan Yike, is the New District.
In short, out of the more than 2,000 people in the Zhou family, nearly 1,300 people have gone out, leaving only half of them at home.
It is not an exaggeration to say that all the people are soldiers.
After last night's battle, Lelai County indeed gained valuable time.
When the Zhou family's team began to be busy, the county government also began to take action in full swing.
As of now, almost everyone who can still communicate with the outside world has gathered in the ten large resettlement sites previously planned.
Moreover, resources have been integrated within these settlements, and new divisions of labor and cooperation have been carried out. Not only have their respective combat teams been formed, but various fortifications and checkpoints have also been set up on the periphery.
Now the combatants in various settlements have begun to take the initiative to expand the sweep area.
Previously, the county's plan was to advance reconstruction work step by step and steadily.
Although humans have become smaller in size, many of the previous production tools adapted to the original size are no longer available.
But after all, the knowledge is still there. As long as there is time, you can always slowly adapt to the new body shape, and gradually complete the transformation of the old production tools, so that society can resume operation, and it may even usher in a better golden age.
The above idea is not technically difficult to realize, and can even be said to be very simple. Even though many people will unfortunately die in the early stages of shrinkage, it is really not difficult to survive this disaster.
This was also the case with the country's plans in the beginning.
But now the situation has changed, and the previous strategy of orderly and steady advancement of social recovery has proven unfeasible.
That's why the country issued another "Announcement" today to urgently adjust its strategy.
Such adjustments are reflected in county-level administrative units, which is another emergency transformation.
In various settlements with tens of thousands of people, preliminary selections have been completed at this time, and on average, at least 2,000 standing combatants have been selected for each settlement.
In addition, the remaining thousands of people, regardless of gender, as long as they are over twelve years old and under sixty-five years old, also exist as preparatory combatants.
In terms of production management and system management, including the administrative agencies of the county government and each township, they also highly imitated the Zhou family's management model, so that all people are soldiers, all people work, and implement militarized management.
The county is currently planning a large-scale operation, the main goal of which is to completely capture the industrial park.
The process of taking over an industrial park will be divided into several steps.
The first step is to dispatch an average of 10,000 operational troops per day to conduct comprehensive sweeps of the industrial park to ensure that there are no stray cats, dogs, or large numbers of rats near the park.
The second step is to use excavators and other construction machinery that have regained their mobility to dig a complete circle of ditches around the industrial park and fill them with water to create a moat. At the same time, a lookout tower made of metal plates will be built in the moat area.
Wait for the fortifications.
The third step is to carry out large-scale engineering construction in the industrial park, with the main construction direction focusing on residential transformation.
The fourth step is to move 20,000 people from two residential areas of 10,000 people whose security construction has never fully met the standards due to limited conditions to the industrial park.
The fifth step is to transform the park into a miniature version of the county based on the 20,000 people and the existing productivity of the industrial park.
The sixth step is to gradually transfer most of the county's population to the industrial park to form a new city.
The physical location of the industrial park is not particularly good, but the advantage is that it covers a large enough area, the buildings are relatively open, and the terrain is simpler and more open.
This is the advantageous terrain of human beings now.
Although humans have shrunk in size nowadays, they still cannot compare with mice when it comes to drilling holes.
The reason is simple: humans are upright walking animals.
After millions of years of evolution, various organs and physiological functional structures of the human body are trying to adapt to walking upright.
Today's human body shape is completely different from that of our ancestors, hominids, and even primitive humans. Human beings today are really unable to crawl for long periods of time like animals.
In addition, human eyes and mouse eyes also have completely different evolutionary directions.
The human eye can see and distinguish countless colors based on the three primary colors.
Although the human eye's ability to distinguish colors is not as good as that of some strange creatures in nature, such as birds and bees, especially hummingbirds, it is also ranked quite high in nature. It can be said that it has a pair of piercing eyes.
But mice are different. Not only do mice have severe amblyopia, but they are also severely color blind. However, although mice paid a price for this evolutionary path, they have gained extremely strong photosensitivity.
Therefore, humans rely heavily on visible light during the day, while mice's dark vision is much stronger than humans.
After last night's drastic changes across the country, experts immediately began to demonstrate that the cities built by humans in the past were actually no longer suitable for the needs of miniature humans.
The city's terrain is too complex, not only crisscrossing it, but also having various underground ditch facilities, which are simply a natural transportation network for rats.
The best living condition for human beings today is to live on a relatively empty, flat concrete surface.
Then, the surroundings should be kept as open as possible to facilitate the movement of large, medium and small vehicles, and security devices such as moats, ditch traps, centralized power grids, etc. should also be arranged.
If before last night, people in all counties across the country lived in squares or playgrounds, then even if there were hundreds of thousands of rats making a head-on attack, they might not be enough to be crushed by human convoys or steamrollers.
Rat swarms can't even break through human defenses.
Unfortunately, human beings' understanding of mice can only follow the rapid evolution of mice, and it is difficult to predict.
In other words, as humans shrink, the original social structure has been shaken. If there is not enough evidence, even if some far-sighted people make new decisions, the people below may not strictly implement them.
…
High in the sky in the new district, Zhou Youzheng was looking at his mobile phone and said to his new assistant: "Now that the county has made a new decision, our task is to fully cooperate. The industrial park is not too far from Yulong Community.
, we can choose whether to go to the industrial park to join others, or of course we can choose to build an enclave in Yulong Community to support each other with the industrial park. Both options have their own benefits."
"It's a pity that small hydropower stations in relatively remote counties have to be abandoned. The lines there have been completely cut off. Even if they are taken back by force, it will be difficult to rebuild the power supply hub. But we ourselves
There are technicians from thermal power plants. There is also an abandoned thermal power station in the industrial park that was originally planned to be demolished, but has not yet been demolished and the old equipment has not been removed. There is still an opportunity to restart this small thermal power plant.
Now we are also working hard to develop small and micro thermal power generators that can use ordinary combustibles. Even if there is a complete power outage outside, we can continue to persevere for a long time."
"Many industries in the park are indeed very important. The factories of toy factories, automobile factories, metal processing factories, pharmaceutical factories, plastic parts processing factories, etc. have become important strategic resources. There is also a factory equipped with high-precision lathes.
The mechanical equipment factory is a top priority. The county has also sent a group of people out to collect raw materials such as explosives, TNT and so on. Manpower is in short supply, so as a special force, we must work under the condition of relatively insufficient troops.
, there is nothing wrong with taking on more mopping up tasks.”
The assistant who had previously been complaining that the tasks undertaken by the Zhou family were too heavy immediately felt relieved after hearing this.
At this time, the relocation work was also in full swing at the Zhou family villa.
The renovation of the club building of Yulong Community has been fully completed, and the cleaning work inside the community has also been completed.
The power grid that can be used to block the entire community has also begun operation.
So starting from today, the more than two thousand people in the Zhou family will officially move.
Of course, the Zhou family villa will not be completely abandoned, but will become an outpost supporting the residential area of Yulong Community and a placement area for mobile forces.
Another whole day passed in a busy manner. Fortunately, no emergencies occurred today.
Everything went smoothly, and no effective resistance was encountered in the sweep.
As equipment becomes more and more complete, even though humans are still quite small today, stray cats and dogs are no longer a threat, just like humans used to deal with elephants, bears, and ligers.
Even though the opponent has sharp teeth and claws, he moves quickly, his reactions are very strong, and he looks very sharp, but I only have one arrow, one javelin, one crossbow, one nail gun, and one electric high-elastic spring iron ball gun...
In short, it was knocked down at once.
If you can't knock it down at once, then fire it continuously.
If even firing is not enough, use fried ones.
In short, I am not afraid that you will die, but I am afraid that you will run away when you see someone, and it will be no fun.
As for the real threat - the rat, the battle last night did indeed cause the rat to suffer a heavy blow.
Those buried in the abandoned cotton mill last night were not just rats in the wild. Apparently, the rat king in Lelai County was also involved.
While sweeping through various target areas, although the Zhou family's operational troops occasionally encountered mouse families, the strange thing was that most of these mouse families only contained mother rats and young rats, and there were fewer stronger male rats.
Even if they occasionally encounter male rats, as soon as they come into contact with them, the combatants will immediately realize that something is not right about the rat.
To put it bluntly, he is just not smart and cunning enough, he is still as dull as before, and he even suffers from simple food baits.
The action team members were very relaxed and comfortable to deal with.
At first, when the action team members reported the matter to Zhou You, they sounded very happy. They felt that although the battle last night cost a lot of money, the results were indeed too impressive.
However, traveling around this "notorious" crow's mouth quickly wiped out everyone's fun and was very disappointing.
Zhou You believes that this further illustrates that rats have terrible management and scheduling abilities and are not particularly united.
The rats in the city and outside the city gathered together without any hindrance, without even a process of fighting for power and dividing factions.
This shows that rats do not treat black rats, white rats, Asian rats, as long as they come here, they are members of the same family.
Isn't this terrible?
We must be more careful in the future and put more effort into eradicating rats.
In short, despite all the worries of iron-blooded pessimists roaming around, the Zhou family's action team not only swept through the new district, but even expanded the scope of the sweep to a large extent into the old district.
Counting the areas previously surveyed by the government, nearly half of the area in Lelai County has been thoroughly surveyed.
It only takes two days at most to complete the sweep of the entire county.
…
Time flies, and another week has passed in the blink of an eye.
During this week, a lot of things happened in Lelai County.
A careful sweep of the entire county has been completed. Although there will inevitably be some missed corners, it is no longer necessary and we cannot expect more.
The industrial park was completely captured.
Xinlelai County has begun to take shape.
Facilities such as moats, large-scale power grids, sentinel towers, pipeline-type Unicom support networks, a rapid troop carrier support system with logistics and distribution battery vehicles as the main means of transportation in the factory area, and emergency high-power power stations with enterprise boilers as the core have all taken shape.
.
Already, 30,000 settlements have been emptied out, and all small and medium-sized settlements have been closed down.
The relocation of surviving personnel in surrounding towns and villages is also being carried out in an orderly manner.
Administrative units at the township and village levels have proven to be unsafe and unable to withstand the onslaught of the rat army.
These people who came to the city from lower-level administrative units have all been resettled in Xinlelai County.
Currently, more than 120,000 people have gathered in the industrial zone, accounting for 24% of the county's permanent population before humankind shrunk.
And this data will continue to grow, with the ultimate goal being to reach at least 300,000, which used to be 60% of the county's total population.
In addition, logistics parks, cultural e-commerce industrial parks, many wholesale shops along the street, and the warehouse areas of some companies and stores have also been emptied out.
Most of the important supplies were moved to Xinlelai County, which had been initially renovated, and a small amount was moved to Yulong Community, which had completed a comprehensive sweep.
The population size of the Zhou family has also increased significantly. Some of them took the initiative to join the Zhou family during the search and rescue process. The number of this group of people is about 5,000.
In addition, more than 3,000 people, after careful consideration, also took the initiative to sign up and apply to join when the Zhou family's recruitment team appeared in various settlements.
Today, the total number of people living in Yulong Community has exceeded 10,000.
The only scientific research base for secondary animal domestication in the county was officially established in Yulong Community.
The person in charge of this scientific research base is An Xin, who although he is only a college student, has always performed very well and was called upon to do so in a critical situation.
