Four cars rushed out of the inner ring city and into the outer ring city.
When he first entered the outer ring city, Shen Feifei saw a large area of military green tents, arranged very neatly. From a distance, he could not see the end of the tents. They seemed very neat and organized. It made people feel good. I think the base manager is a very responsible and capable person.
However, as the car went further out, Shen Feifei discovered that these neat and orderly tents gradually became rarer and disappeared.
After turning a small corner, I saw random shabby tents everywhere in front of me. There were rags and sheets hung on a few sticks to serve as tents; there were a few pieces of clothing or rags sewn together; and some were simply tents. Just hang a few plastic bags and that's all; or some people don't even have these, they just find a few handfuls of hay and lie down on the ground.
In Shen Feifei's confused eyes, the bearded team leader next to her told her that those who lived in neat military tents were the first to arrive at the base, and their tents were also given by the military. Later, the military did not have much supplies. , and it was no longer enough for itself, so the civil administration power of the outer city was assigned to the government and they were asked to find a way.
Unexpectedly, these government officials cited lack of supplies as an excuse and never sent another tent down. They were left to find their own solutions.
Now, the tents in the area close to the Central City are very neat and orderly; there are no tents in the areas close to the outside.
It is obvious that these residents of the outer ring city are somewhat malnourished. They all have sallow and thin faces, and their faces are swarthy, as if they have been exposed to the sun for a long time, and their faces feel dry and shrunken. There are very few fat people anymore. There were also a few people who were as skinny as skeletons, with their eyes buckled.
Seeing the military Humvee approaching, people in the outer ring city were so scared that they hid on the side of the road, but looked at them with anxious eyes.
The clothes, shoes and hats they wore were also shabby, with big holes and small eyes, and patches of various colors piled on top of each other.
It looked like they were either scratched or torn by weathering. Some people were wearing winter cotton-padded jackets, but they were covered in flying lint. The elderly and children were even more embarrassed, and some children simply picked them up without any clothes on. He put a torn paper bag on his body, his face was covered with dirty mud, he didn't even have shoes, and he stepped on the garbage-filled ground with his bare feet.
Seeing this, Shen Feifei frowned sadly. He remembered that the official radio broadcast said that there was sufficient water, food and clothing here. It is certain that there is not much water now. But, is it possible that there is also a shortage of clothing and food? Is it amazing? Why are these people dressed like this and still hungry like skeleton refugees in an African refugee camp?
In densely populated areas, military vehicles gradually slowed down.
Watching the military vehicle slow down a bit, many people approached with their hands stretched out, beating the door, opening and closing their chapped lips, shouting, give me something to eat, give me something to eat. If Even if the car window was closed, their hands would have reached in.
Probably because he saw that Shen Feifei was unhappy, the bearded man continued to tell her that there was no way to store clothes in the military. There was not much food, and it was handed over to the government to distribute to these refugees. They didn't know how to handle it. Too clear.
I just know that the rations for young and middle-aged people here are half of those in the inner ring city of the Central Ring City. That is, there are only three steamed buns a day and a pound of water. The elderly and children who cannot go out to look for supplies are one-half of the young and middle-aged people in the outer ring city. The ration is one and a half steamed buns and only half a catty of water. Moreover, sometimes I don’t know whether I can get it or not.
Doesn't the military care? Shen Feifei was a little angry and asked the bearded man angrily. Seeing the miserable looks of these people, Shen Feifei was really uncomfortable. Although she was now the zombie king and not a human being, she was still very uncomfortable. Sympathy for these people.
How to control it? There is no way! The bearded man spread his hands, expressing his helplessness. The military has a total of only 100,000 people, and there are also some civilian personnel and family members. The military is responsible for the defense of the base, maintaining order, and covering the collection of supplies by humans. There are not enough manpower for these tasks, so how can we manage millions of people?
Also, the civilian power of the base has been handed over to the government. It is not within their scope of authority and it is not easy for them to interfere! There are too many interests involved.
Hearing this, Shen Feifei sneered. If there is anything that is not easy to control, it is not within their scope of authority!
Although the daily food consumption of millions of people is not a small amount, it is calculated as half a catty of food per person per day. One hundred people need to eat a bag of fifty catties of food; a thousand people need to eat ten bags; and ten thousand people need one bag of food. One hundred bags; one hundred thousand people means one thousand bags; nearly two million people need to eat 20,000 bags of food. The daily consumption is the storage capacity of a small warehouse. A small base cannot support millions of people. Spend.
However, the Taicang base was originally a large base. Before the end of the world, there was a large state-owned grain depot that was famous throughout the country. It stored millions of tons of grain, or even tens of millions of tons. People continued to collect supplies and other things, and also Jiangbei also releases some supplies from time to time. Therefore, the base should not be there for the time being, and there will be no food shortage crisis.
As for saying that the food shortage is so severe that it has even reached the point of disbanding the base, it is simply a lie, or they want to keep the food but don't know what to do with it!
Therefore, the military and the government do not want to care about the life and death of these refugees at all. They just want to play football and distribute the benefits.
We should hold on to the advantages and push out the disadvantages. This is the lazy and harmful thinking that governments and military have always used before the end of the world. Unexpectedly, after the end of the world, there are many crises everywhere, and this kind of ruling thinking is still the same. No wonder so many surviving humans still have The Jiangbei government is still there, but it has made human beings passive everywhere. They are surrounded by zombies, beating them up and eating them, and their strength is gradually weakened.
Humans are really selfish animals, the same at all times. They are not as smart as these advanced zombies and understand the importance of unity.
The convoy kept driving towards the entrance of the outer ring city. Although many people wanted to gain some benefits from the soldiers, no one dared to openly block the road and intercept the military vehicles. The journey was uneventful and they soon arrived at the city gate.
Here, the car was forced to stop temporarily. At the front entrance, there were a large number of heavily armed policemen setting up obstacles for inspection. When they saw the military vehicle approaching, a senior policeman trotted over with a few people.
"We have official business. Hurry up and move the roadblocks and get out of the way!" Xiao Yi opened the car window and shouted impatiently at the leading policeman with a fat face.
This group of policemen were dressed in black, with two pieces of white cloth stained on the left and right sides of their necks. They wore large-brimmed hats, but most of them were worn crookedly, and their armed belts were tied loosely, like trouser pockets. , even the gun on his body was dragged behind his butt.
At first glance, these people look like a group of ruffian police officers without any discipline, much like the white-dog policemen who used to be called "scratching the Democratic Party."
