I have a space station

"Mayor Xu, I have an idea, but I don't know if it's feasible," a doctor said.

"Tell me quickly!" Mayor Xu saw a glimmer of hope.

"We can set up an isolation zone of about 10 meters on the outside of the wall," the doctor replied.

"How to set it up?" Mayor Xu asked.

"Remove all the weeds and shrubs nearby and spread them on the ground. Then mix in some dry wood, plastic, and rubber, and pour gasoline on top and ignite it. Extinguish it with water when it's halfway burned. This way, the remnants that are not completely burned will emit a strong odor. As long as the distance is wide enough, it should provide some protection," the doctor explained.

After hearing this, Mayor Xu began to think carefully.

There were several difficulties:

First: Mobilizing the masses to clear weeds outside the city is risky. If ants attack at this time, the workers may be in danger.

Second: There is no ready-made supply of things like plastic and rubber; we can only collect them from house to house. How much we can collect in the end is still unknown.

Third: The gasoline reserves are limited. If we want to build a 10-meter wide isolation zone on the south side of the city wall, the amount of gasoline needed will not be small. The inventory in the resettlement area may have to be used up all at once.

If this method doesn't work, the days ahead will be even harder.

"How confident are you?" Mayor Xu asked.

"This… Mayor Xu, to be honest, I'm not confident," the doctor said somewhat awkwardly.

Hearing this, Mayor Xu's heart immediately sank.

If there's no confidence, the risk is not worth taking.

"Mayor Xu, I have a suggestion," Team Leader Fan said.

"Oh? Tell me!" Mayor Xu looked at Team Leader Fan.

"I think the safest method is to retreat to the north of the Yangtze River and then arrange for people to defend the Changjing Bridge. Defending a city is too long a battle line and consumes too much, but defending a bridge shortens the battle line significantly," Team Leader Fan said.

Mayor Xu's eyes lit up upon hearing this suggestion.

This method is good.

"Okay! Time is of the essence! Go and make arrangements now, mobilize everyone to transfer through the North Gate towards the Changjing Bridge. I'll go back to Jiangbei now and arrange a new resettlement area for you," Mayor Xu instructed.

There are many industrial parks in Jiangbei, all of which have been abandoned. Therefore, finding a suitable location to set up a new resettlement area is not too difficult.

"Okay!" Team Leader Fan accepted the order and left in a hurry.

It is now 18:10. In this season, the sun sets in the Hanzhong area around 20:40. There are only two and a half hours of safe time left for outdoor activities.

Once the sun sets, the zombies will come out, and if the transfer is not completed by then, the risk factor will greatly increase.

Mayor Xu was struggling with whether to wait one night.

The current situation is that sticking your head out might get you killed, and hiding your head might also get you killed. It's a dilemma.

But thinking about it the other way, this area belongs to the suburbs of Jingmen City, with a low population density, and the possibility of encountering zombies is not high. But if we stay here, once the ants attack the city, it will definitely be a dead end. Weighing the options, retreating to Jiangbei is more proactive and safer.

So, Mayor Xu stopped hesitating and quickly headed towards Jiangbei.

Today is a race against time.

The Baisha Resettlement Area where Mayor Xu is located is also one of the first 20 resettlement areas to cooperate with the Huatong Chamber of Commerce.

Three days ago, Qu Zhengping had arranged for five Holy Envoys to come to Jingmen City.

Also coming were five Tier 3 zombies controlled by the Holy Envoys.

These five Tier 3 zombies were newly controlled through the heavily modified Spirit Summoning Technique.

To improve efficiency, Holy Envoys without Tier 3 zombies were all unified in Mozhou to complete the Spirit Summoning Technique. Then, Qu Zhengping arranged for planes to transport them to the cities where the 20 cooperating resettlement areas were located.

For the past three days, these five Holy Envoys have been searching for and gathering low-level zombies in the urban area of Jingmen City.

However, there are not many zombies left in Jingmen City.

This is because Pengjiawan, 50 kilometers west of Jingmen City, has a military sub-district of the Southwest Military Region: the Jingmen Military Sub-district.

In the past few months, they have carried out many hunting missions in Jingmen, killing most of the zombies.

Of course, after all, Jingmen City was also a mega-city in the past, with a population of over 20 million. Even if most of the zombies have been eliminated, it is still possible to gather tens of thousands of zombies with a little effort.

By last night, the five Holy Envoys had almost gathered about 10,000 zombies each, planning to launch a feigned attack on the Baisha Resettlement Area tonight.

This night will be a headache for Mayor Xu.

At around six o'clock in the afternoon, the North Gate of the Changjing Resettlement Area on the south bank of the Yangtze River was wide open, and the people, carrying large and small bags, poured out of the city and ran towards the Changjing Bridge.

Looking from a distance, the crowd had formed a twisting dragon, winding north along the main road.

"Guardian, I have a situation to report," a Holy Envoy contacted Qu Zhengping through the second-generation bone microphone.

Since joining the Red Lotus Sect, these Holy Envoys have also undergone a significant upgrade in equipment.
