This is the northernmost part of Western Sichuan Province, bordering Grassland Province to the north, Lianghe Province to the east, and Mobei Province to the west.
The towering Hailan Mountains are the natural dividing line between western Sichuan and the grasslands.
There are vast plains here, and agriculture is the main industry here.
After the survivors of Fengcheng escaped from the city, most of them went to the northern area of Fengcheng to settle down.
At this time, Tang Zheng's car had already passed Fengcheng City and was on its way north.
The matter in Qinzhou was settled, Tang Zheng went north this time, and there were four more tank trucks in the convoy.
The tanker truck was filled with fuel, which was regarded as the ransom of those people.
Tang Zheng, who decided to leave, didn't want to get into any more entanglements there. After his own efforts, there was not much money left to collect among the survivors in Qinzhou.
The car has got off the expressway and is walking on the provincial road.
In the car, Wu Di turned on the radio and was listening to the broadcast here.
Hanyue's radio station is also divided into regions. Normally, the broadcast of a channel can only be listened to within the city's area. After Tang Zheng left Qinzhou, the news from Qinzhou could not be received.
But at this time, he was still listening to the radio messages in the car with great interest.
The person speaking at this time was a person from the international base.
This is a foreigner, but he can speak fluent Chinese.
"Yong Linling! Are you crazy, you bastard? You have attacked our team collecting supplies at the international base again. This is the third time, right? Do you think you are the earl of Han Yue and I can't do anything to you?
How about it?"
On the other side of the radio, another relatively familiar voice came from Tang Zheng.
"International base, bah! It's just a chowder made up of a bunch of foreign offal. If I, Yong Linling, were afraid of you, I wouldn't even be the count anymore."
"And you still have the nerve to scold me. Have you forgotten how many bad things you have done?"
The people at the international base over there said again: "You must be mentally ill. I told you a long time ago that our international base has never done that. I guarantee it with the reputation of the Magnolia Empire."
"Fuck you Magnolia, what kind of reputation does Magnolia have as a robber country? And a few Magnolia people that day just told me the color of that old pervert Jonathan's underwear. How can this matter be false? Tell me.
You, we are not done with this!"
"You Yong Linling, you are confusing right and wrong here and talking nonsense. Do you really think we are afraid of you? I tell you not to get too complacent too early. We can find mercenaries to deal with you."
"Come on, you know what's the use of bragging? If you can come out of Fengcheng alive, your grandfather Yong doesn't know how to write the word "fear"."
The scolding on the radio was so intense that Tang Zheng was a little ashamed.
Speaking of which, the water is very deep.
The car drove for a while, then got off the provincial road and onto a rural road.
The road gradually became a little bumpy.
Tang Zheng was sitting in the car, feeling a little drowsy.
But he knew that the current road was not difficult, and there was still more than a hundred kilometers to go, which might be even more difficult.
It was already the third day of his departure. The three-day trek made him a little tired, but fortunately he was about to reach his destination today.
The car drove for more than an hour, and mountains gradually appeared in front of us.
"General, we are almost there."
The correspondent called Tang Zheng, and Tang Zheng opened his eyes.
"Oh, are we almost at the Hailan Mountains?"
"General, strictly speaking, this is just a branch of the Hailan Mountains. This mountainous area is called Guyun Mountain District, and the highest peak is called Guyan Mountain. The source of Fengming River is on Guyan Mountain."
Tang Zheng nodded slightly, it seemed that the correspondent had also done his homework.
Fengming River is a tributary of Chi River, but the purity of the water flow is far higher than that of Chi River.
It is said that the source of Fengming River is formed by the melting snow and spring water from the mountains of Guyan Mountain. The water quality is first-rate in the country.
At the beginning, Hanyue Royal Radio used to broadcast advertisements, which were made by Fengminghe Mineral Water Factory.
Tang Zheng still remembers that advertisement.
"We don't process water, we are just porters of Fengming River."
This shows how good the water quality of Fengming River is.
The water in Fengming River is mineral water, which shows that the mineral resources here are also very rich.
It is said that there used to be gold mines in the Guyun Mountain area.
This is also Tang Zheng's destination this time. He wants to come here to build a survival base of his own.
Judging from the scene on the road, I made the right choice this time.
There are almost no people or zombies on the road. Especially after entering the mountainous area, it is difficult to see even the marks of ruts. This shows that after the apocalypse, few survivors will come here.
After the car drove slowly along the hillside for more than 20 minutes, it finally stopped.
Tang Zheng opened the door and got out of the car.
As soon as he got out of the car, Tang Zheng felt a cold wind coming.
"It's a bit cold."
Next to Tang Zheng, scientific research soldier Guo Yundao said: "General, we have traveled almost 1,500 kilometers from Qinzhou to here. Another 200 kilometers to the north, we will reach the grassland province in the north of the empire. In addition, the temperature this year is higher than
It's almost ten degrees cooler than usual, so it's normal to be cold."
As he spoke, Guo Yun pointed to the distance: "General, please look, there is Guyan Mountain, and you can still see snow on the top of the mountain."
Tang Zheng looked up, and among the clouds and mist in the distance, the snow on Guyan Mountain was indeed clearly visible.
Tang Zheng tugged on his collar: "Let's go, we'll make peace when we come, and let's look for our settlement."
"General, if you are looking for settlements, I suggest searching along the river. After all, you said, we must ensure clean drinking water, so being along the river is a necessary condition."
"Okay, just do as you say."
The convoy was actually not far from the river. Tang Zheng and a group of people quickly arrived at the Fengming River.
Fengming River is a medium-sized river, about fifty meters wide, and the flow is a bit fast, mainly due to the terrain.
Tang Zheng came to the river. From the bank, he could still clearly see the bottom of the river.
Some rocks protrude from the water. After thousands of years of erosion by the river, the rocks are smooth and round.
On the water, occasionally some cold-water fish jump out of the water, and they are quite big.ωωw..net
In the last days, no one will fish anymore, these aquatic groups are getting stronger and stronger, and it seems that there will be many unprecedented species.
Tang Zheng and his party walked along the river for a long time and finally arrived at the foot of Guyun Mountain.
Further up, there are tall mountains rising from the ground.
Guyun Mountain is nearly two thousand meters above sea level, making it a veritable mountain in the plain area.
Looking at the mountain peaks that reached as steep as the clouds, Tang Zheng stopped.
"I can't walk anymore. It's too difficult to climb this mountain."
"General, what do you think of this place?"
Tang Zheng looked around and found some wild fruit trees on the hillside, which were red and bearing fruits.
Looking around, there are vast plains to the south and east.
To the north and west are the steep slopes of Guyun Mountain.
This is a natural haven. Standing here, the climate feels warmer.
"Yes, there are mountains and water, and it also forms a microclimate. How big is the area here?"
Research soldier Guo Yun looked at it for a while: "General, if you start from the Fengming River, there are about five or six square kilometers in the corners of this mountainous area. If you cross the Fengming River, this area will be
Eleven square kilometers."
Tang Zheng nodded: "Have a look at the nearby maps to see which ones are closer."
"General, I have seen that 600 kilometers to the south from where we are is Fengcheng, 800 kilometers to the east is the boundary of Lianghe Province, and it is only 1,300 kilometers away from the Jinghe County you mentioned.
distance."
"Bypassing Guyan Mountain and heading north for 220 kilometers, you will reach Lumba City in the Prairie Province. It is said that there are some survival bases there, and they are developing well."
"One hundred and fifty kilometers to the west is the Huanglong Desert in Mobei Province. If you pass through the desert, you can directly reach the Kingdom of Nahan in the west."
Tang Zheng asked again, "Where are the nearby counties and towns?"
Guo Yun obviously understood it very well, so he opened his mouth and said: "There are two counties within a hundred kilometers of us, one is Qingquan County in Fengcheng, and the other is Caiqi County in Lumba, and there are seven townships in total.
The nearest town is only thirty kilometers away, called Changling Town, and there is a railway passing there."
Tang Zheng nodded approvingly: "You did your homework well. Do you think it's appropriate for me to come to this area to establish a base?"
"It's perfect. We are backed by Guyun Mountain District, and there are mountains to the west and north as natural barriers. We are safe and worry-free. The only thing we need to watch out for is the mutant birds and beasts in the mountainous area. However, with the current scale of our army,
Those birds and beasts can no longer pose a threat."
"There is water, the climate is warm, and it is very livable. The only drawback is that the transportation is a bit inconvenient. But as long as the general expands the engineering team and acquires some large machinery, these things will not be a problem."
"Another very important point is that this place is inaccessible, especially after the end of the world. No one has been here at all, so even if the general builds a city here, it won't appear out of place. After all, no one knows what is happening here.
It means that the general needs to build the city bigger in advance, so as to avoid future expansion."
Tang Zheng also quite agreed with this point.
To establish it, you need to get it right in one step, but I don’t know if the funds you currently have are enough.
The funds Tang Zheng received at the trading conference have been exchanged, which is more than expected. He now has a total of 1.72 million funds in hand.
Moreover, most of the firearms that were originally sold were confiscated by him, and he had more than a thousand 98K unused in his mind.
This batch of firearms has also become a concern for Tang Zheng, and it seems that he will have to find an opportunity to sell them again.
If he wanted to build a base now, Tang Zheng did not plan to build a city wall first.
The first thing he wants to build is a resource recycling station.
After all, the city wall requires a huge amount of funds. With a resource recycling station and enough materials, 90% of the construction cost can be saved.
Tang Zheng thought for a while, then turned around and asked Guo Yun: "You still have the drawings there, have you done anything?"
"Yes General, I have made a new drawing here."
With that said, Guo Yun handed Tang Zheng a blueprint.
Tang Zheng took it and used it directly.
There is a new building in the system.
