"Surely the North will become our backyard!" Zheng Yifan emphasized this point as soon as the meeting began.
His words were filled with confidence.
The people around Zheng Yifan looked at him, unsure of what he meant.
"You may not know this, but the Southern Zombies are gradually approaching the coast. There are formidable Zombies, but they are all engaged in battles with the Sea Beasts along the shore. To us humans, the Zombies are like a band of marauders, a swarm of inconspicuous ants that can be easily eliminated at any moment. Therefore, they ignore us. However, this presents us with our best opportunity. As long as we seize it and control a vast amount of land, we can gather more people and form more teams. By neutralizing the potential of those Zombies, we will eventually be able to fight against the coastal Zombies. Once we drain their potential, we can organize a significant development along the coastline, completely fortifying it and establishing an impregnable fortress using reinforced concrete to eliminate the Sea Beasts' might." Zheng Yifan gradually shared his insights.
He had some understanding of the characteristics of the Sea Beasts. Aside from a few exceptionally unique Sea Beasts, most lacked the ability to fight on land; their speed onshore was slow, rendering their combat prowess ineffective. The battle between Zombies and Sea Beasts was still in its simplest form—merely blocking the Zombies at the shore and gradually clearing them out. The powerful Zombies could even venture into the sea to fish out and eliminate Sea Beasts.
Zheng Yifan's group could not do that; after all, humans were still too few in number compared to the trillions of Sea Beasts. They represented the largest force in the world but remained primarily within the ocean, rarely coming ashore.
The Sea Beasts near the shore were not originally deep-sea creatures.
Now Zheng Yifan's focus was on the North—unifying their rear. He aimed to treat the entire northern land area as his stronghold. With ample war potential, he would make both Zombies and Sea Beasts pay dearly.
"Leader, it's not that I doubt you, but there are many government troops in the North. They are no pushovers. Even if our Superpowered Individuals are slightly weaker, with Post-Apocalypse weaponry in their hands, we would clearly be at a disadvantage against them. We don’t even know what kind of power has emerged that allows them to use Firearms now," Left Guard remarked with a cigarette dangling from his mouth.
His concerns were quite practical. With Firearms in play, humanity's strength had become formidable. The forces at Hope Gathering Place were simply insufficient against Firearms; even in the past, they feared modern armies equipped with Zombie Crystal s that enabled them to fight with Firearms. Hope Gathering Place was currently in such a situation; the emergence of Firearms had noticeably narrowed the gap between Superpowered Individuals and ordinary people.
Of course, Superpowered Individuals wielding Firearms were even more intimidating; they utilized Firearms in diverse ways that surpassed Post-Apocalypse limits.
Almost every Superpowered Individual was a Perfect Accuracy Sharpshooter because their control over their bodies was extraordinarily strong.
Zheng Yifan smiled lightly.
"Don't worry, the Firearms can be used because I placed some important items around the Gathering Place, forming a barrier. It can block the rules of Vital Energy from the outside, but once we step out of our range, those Firearms will still be unusable. As for others' weapons, since we can use ours, it's only natural that they can use theirs as well. The main thing is whether we can succeed in battle; if we can recruit them, we will, and if not, we'll forcefully recruit them. We must take bold steps. A great person once said that we should strategically underestimate our enemies while tactically taking them seriously. The Hope Gathering Place has reached a bottleneck in its development; we can only expand to the outskirts of Deep City in the south. The gathering of humanity is nearly complete, but the population is still low. Next, we need to gradually spread westward, bypassing the Ushumar Mountains to the north. Crossing the river to the east means entering the entire eastern and northern regions, where the Northeast has the highest population and is gradually moving away from the coast. That area is suitable for recruiting manpower," Zheng Yifan gradually explained.
The Ushumar Mountains in the north blocked a vast area, but beyond them lay three other provinces with a population in the billions. Not to mention that northeastward there was still more than half a country waiting for Zheng Yifan and his companions to conquer with their iron hooves.
That was what truly needed Zheng Yifan's attention.
After Zheng Yifan finished speaking, a free discussion began below. Everyone was calculating in their hearts whether it was feasible to launch such a grand battle. After all, conquering the entire Northeast would be quite challenging; their current position was close to the coast, and the threat of Sea Beasts could be severe.
However, since Zheng Yifan had set the strategy, everyone began preparing for the upcoming battle.
The meeting still hadn't concluded; most of the remaining time was spent discussing how to capture these various directions. The number of Zombies was still too great; a team of hundreds of thousands could easily be diluted within moments.
Thus, their destination was various military bases that had already been documented and ammunition storage points.
Gathering necessary supplies and military resources was now their primary concern. If they wanted to fight against Sea Beasts, they would inevitably need Firearms. The most crucial item at present was Zheng Yifan's newly developed equipment—the Vitality Sphere—which was excellent for use with Firearms. One Vitality Sphere could power a Firearm for a week and could also be recharged.
This meant it could be reused; bringing along several Vitality Spheres would allow them to embark on expeditions. Now vehicles could be used as long as there were enough Vitality Spheres; humanity's restoration of civilization was just around the corner.
Zheng Yifan had another task added to his shoulders: to quickly develop the Vital Energy Charger. He could only grit his teeth and agree.
In fact, there were already enough Zombie Crystal s within Hope Gathering Place, thanks to what seemed like a treasure map that recorded the locations of Treasure Earthworms. Those creatures were known for their high yield of Zombie Crystal s. A team led by Zhou Rui had spent over a month searching and finally discovered four or five Treasure Earthworms. While no other treasures were found, they had amassed over thirty million Zombie Crystal s, safely secured once again. Zheng Yifan could now exchange for a Vital Energy Charger and then see what technological advancements lay ahead.
He knew that the increasingly improved Exchange List was an important tool for rapid development. Humanity's progress could not be separated from technology, and the treasures left behind from the First Vitality Era needed Zheng Yifan to unlock them himself. Those secrets would become the cornerstone of humanity's future development. (To be continued)
