Doomsday rat

"My mother... run, run to the south, who has the gun? Let them come and gather... Damn, you don't have fucking eyes, where are you going to hit!"

In fact, there was no need for Zhu Zhenrong to analyze it anymore. Looking east from where he was standing, with the light of lightning, he could already see dense figures shaking.Sun Ning let out a strange cry, and immediately followed suit and made the right choice.

But it’s useless for just one or two people to understand. On a dark rainy night, suddenly letting a group of mobs change their pre-arranged plans, from seeing others’ bad luck to their own bad luck, is as difficult as commanding the Dunkirk retreat. One-tenth of the command is well-trained.

Shouting, yelling, and running, it was a mess, unable to go to the east, and turned to the west and south. At this time, the carriages blocked in the streets and alleys became a burden again, and they blocked themselves instead of blocking the enemy.

Some people were still sober and planned to move the carriage.But some people can't wait, especially those who are left behind. Although the zombies haven't caught up yet, they still feel that their backs are cold and the front is blocked. They should just climb the wall!

Everyone climbed the wall, jumped the yard and fled. The man who moved the carriage saw it and said, "Fuck, you all ran away. We can't be fools if we stay here. Come on, let's run too."

On the way, I met people who rushed back from the middle of the village for reinforcements, and they refused to let anyone on either side, blocking several narrow streets and alleys.After explaining the situation in a hurry, the figure of the zombie had already appeared a hundred meters away.

"Bang, bang, bang... Oh, hit her mother, look at people..." Someone fired immediately, but almost no one hit the target, and the panic caused was real.The crowd driven by the zombies kept rushing forward regardless of whether the road was blocked or not.

The people in front were pushed to the ground before they could move the chariots and horses. The fatal ones were stepped on a few times without injury, and the backs were bitten before the zombies bit them. Basically, they only had half their lives left.

"It's started on the other side..." As soon as the gunshot rang out, there was movement in the army camp on the south bank of the river. Not only did Jiang Ping not act immediately, he even took off his coat, pretending to have just woken up.

"You two go and gather the people in the platoon, don't rush across the river, and send two squads to check the situation first, the large troops are waiting for orders!"

After the sentinel reported what he had discovered, Jiang Ping went to the map in a decent manner to plan his strategy, did all the scenes, and delayed as much time as possible within a reasonable range. The platoon leader put the troops on the defensive.

But it is still not possible to send troops immediately. We must first send a small group of troops to conduct investigations, and only after we have fully figured out the situation on the other side of the river can we formulate the next move. It is too prudent and has the demeanor of a general!

No matter where it goes, this reaction is very normal and reasonable, even some military officers will give it a steady evaluation, and it is in line with all the regulations in the military drills, and it is beyond reproach.

Chapter 814

"Damn... You guys are so good at biting me that I won't mention it, why are you still stepping on people, can you be a little polite, I'm in your group now!"

On the grassland a few hundred meters away from the east of the village on the north bank of the river, Hong Tao was limping and struggling.He led the group of zombies around in a big circle, from the west side of the village to the east side, then threw off his clothes and rushed into the group of zombies without hesitation, causing someone among them to grab a hand on the back and become a reserve soldier again zombies.

The zombies suddenly lost their target, and they stood still in place stupidly.But Hong Tao was not stupid. He crawled forward for more than 200 meters, found the coachman guarding the horses, knocked one unconscious and carried him back.

The coachman became the guiding light for the zombies. When he saw a group of zombies rushing towards him, his first reaction was to run to the village.It's a pity that he was stabbed in the leg and couldn't run fast, only screaming.

This shout was amazing, it woke up all the zombies, it turned out that there were still people over there!Brothers, rush, rush to have children... Oh, no, rush to carry on the family...

Hong Tao's shout was miserable. He had never played like this before, and he didn't know that zombies would be so crazy.After the zombies rushed over, they realized that they had nowhere to run, and they didn't dare to get up and run, in case someone with a gun found out that the bullets didn't look good.

Just like that, he was stepped on by the big feet of a dozen zombies, almost stepping on his intestines.Only after all the zombies rushed into the village did they dare to get up and walk back.

A chaotic night, a weird night, a bloody night, a tragic night... When Battalion Commander Jiang received the squad leader's report that hundreds of zombies had attacked the village, he did not hesitate any longer and immediately led a company of guards to the village. Attack on the north bank of the river, and at the same time report to Commander Yang for support.

Commander Yang knew roughly what was going to happen, but he really didn't know how and to what extent. When he heard that a group of zombies attacked the transport team's station, he didn't dare to delay immediately, and immediately ordered the two battalions stationed near the airport to move forward lightly. , Rapid reinforcements.

At this time, he was reporting to the deputy chief of staff on how to overcome road problems in rainy days with the regiment commander and battalion commander of the 7th regiment guarding the airport, as well as the squadron leader and engineering regiment commander transferred from the Air Force.Hearing the news, Zhang Ke immediately became anxious, and immediately ordered all the armored battalion stationed at the airport to dispatch, and he personally commanded it.

But no matter whether it was really rushing to rescue or pretending to be late, all remedial measures were too late.The absolute speed of zombies is not fast, but they are persistent. As long as they find living humans, no matter what kind of hardships they face, they will always move forward indomitable.

Facing the group charge of zombies, only intensive firepower and favorable terrain can stop it, such as an organized army, or a river that happens to exist.But there are neither of these in Xidaizhuang, only the dark environment, congested streets and chauffeurs.

Those who were lucky enough to jump into the river were out of ten, and even fewer were lucky enough to make it to the west of the village.Most of the coachmen were bitten and scratched by zombies on the road, and then turned into zombies again, and soon joined the ranks of chasing and biting their companions.

Of course, some people who lived in the village that night were more fortunate, such as the driver of the Ping An Transportation Company.They happened to live on the west side of the village, and they had good leaders and relatively strong discipline.

After hearing gunshots and finding zombies entering the village, these coachmen followed the leaders and ran south without hesitation. There was no confusion in the process, and they ran to the river smoothly.

Regardless of whether they can swim or not, they all jumped in, helping each other to start swimming.In the end, except for two people whose feet were stabbed by unknown objects, all of them arrived at the south bank smoothly.

When the army arrived, they sat on the south bank and ate the dry food they carried with them. Looking at the village illuminated by lights and fires as if it were daytime, listening to the intermittent gunfire, they were dazed in a daze.

Most of the coachmen haven't figured out what happened so far, let alone where so many zombies came out in a good way. Apart from secretly congratulating themselves for their good fortune and good fortune, there are also a few piles of soil and a few sticks. After lighting a cigarette, I prayed for the driver on the other side of the river who did not run out.

What a deep hatred, no, everyone is a survivor, a refugee, a poor person, just for someone to have an extra bite of food.The matter has come to a critical point, and maybe they will really fight each other, but watching their own kind being slaughtered by zombies, I can't bear it, and I feel a little bit sad.

"Brother Zhou, what the hell is going on!"

Wang Gang was one of them. If there was a gang fight with the drivers of other transport teams, he would definitely take the lead in the charge. No matter whether he was holding a machete or a mace, he would never hesitate to strike.But at this time, he couldn't bear it. Seeing that Hong Tao had to swim across the river alone after a long time, he immediately had doubts.

"How the hell did I know! Hearing the chaos in the village and gunshots, I thought you guys were fighting with them. I ran from the north to the south, only to find that it was not people fighting, but zombies. My mother Leh, I almost ran to my death...

Recently, the zombies are only a few meters away... I said Wang Gang, you are not a thing, you don't even tell me to retreat.Fortunately, I am not going to stand guard, but to be a fucking news tree! "

When he was caught face to face, Hong Tao could tell that he was mistaken, and now that he had no pictures or the truth, it would be difficult to get the truth out of him.After confirming with the stupid pig's eyes that he didn't talk too much, he completely shook off the spout, and almost forced Wang Gang to swim over to fight the zombies to prove his innocence.

"Brother Mouse, did they attract the zombies?" Wang Gang left feeling very guilty, but it was true, he had indeed forgotten that there was a guard post in the north of the village when he ran, and he didn't feel wronged after being scolded.But Bungy knew how unjust this scolding was, but he still couldn't figure out many details.

"Well, they came from the west... It's not easy to do this job! They obviously have collusion with the garrison here, otherwise they would be able to accurately find the group of zombies when they first came, which doesn't make sense at all."

Hong Tao didn't pretend to speak dark words in front of the wise. Some things had to be known to his subordinates so that he could be more vigilant or better understand what he was doing.

"Xiao Ma and Lazy Dog both said that the senior officer was good and reasonable, and he specially protected us along the way and prevented the two sides from contacting each other. He is a senior official from above, and he should be different from the officers here. This matter Can I talk to him about it?"

Bungy thought it was right, but he didn't want to guard against the army, let alone being black-handed again. He planned to solve this problem completely, and the solution came from Zhang Ke.

"Even if he doesn't know, he won't turn against the army here, and it's impossible to investigate. If it's what you said, he and we don't know, then he can't ask the fart by himself, and he will tell us exposed.

At the very least, it was a person who refused to save and refused to report what he knew. Not a few people died, but dozens or even hundreds of people.This is a military area, and it belongs to the battlefield. The military law is ruthless. If you kill, you will be killed. There is no way to complain. "

But Hong Tao didn't think so. If Bao Qingtian was expected to uphold justice, he shouldn't have led the zombies to the east of the village in the first place, so his side would still be just.Now that you have been killed, you want to be a good citizen who abides by the law and put aside your moral burden. How can there be such a good thing.

"...What should I do if I can do it!" Bungy nodded, agreeing not to report it, but still worried about the future situation.This is not a job to deliver a batch of goods and leave. You have to hang around with the army for more than a month.If you have formed an enemy from the moment we met, and you are not afraid of thieves stealing, you are afraid of thieves thinking about it, and you will suffer a big loss sooner or later.

"Don't worry, at least the army won't move their minds until the clean-up operation is over. It's not my guess, it's necessary. You count, how many coachmen are left on the opposite side? How many carriages can still move? We have a grudge against us." It was Sun Changzhong and his group, the army was just doing favors, success or failure had nothing to do with them.

And they still have to count on us to provide logistical supplies. The high-level executives of the refugee car driver alliance may not strictly investigate or even know about the death of dozens of people. I can figure it out. "

Hong Tao really didn't worry that the army here would retaliate. If the control of the alliance military was so weak, there would have been warlord separatism and the like, and today would not be the case.In fact, even worrying is useless. Could it be possible to leave the front line without authorization and return?That's really looking for death.

Chapter 815

I don’t know if it’s because God couldn’t bear to watch too many tragedies in the world, and wept all my tears. When the army arrived, the heavy rain gradually subsided, and it stopped altogether when the sky became bright.

At this time, the action of collecting zombies in Xidai Village was basically coming to an end. With the advance of hundreds of soldiers in full armor, the zombies that were originally blocking people and killing Buddhas suddenly became vulnerable.

"Several, don't you think this is a bit strange?"

Zhang Ke arrived with the armored battalion guarding the airport. When he arrived, the army had already entered the village, and the scene of the zombies chasing and killing the coachman was basically not seen.But he had heard all the news that came out from time to time, and he had a rough picture in his mind, which outlined the relationship between the migrant coachman, the zombie group, and the army.

Thinking about it now, he still didn't want to understand how these zombies came here.If it is said to come from the east, it is impossible. One kilometer to the east is the highway, and the east of the road is the military camp.The zombies had no reason to avoid the barracks, and they specifically picked the village where the coachman lived.

If they came from the west or north, it is possible. Due to the shortage of manpower, the garrison only cleaned up the large villages and towns near the airport, and did not take care of the ones a little farther away.But here comes the question, why do the zombies go around at least half a circle and enter the village from the east?

"Chief of staff, our regiment has preliminarily cleaned up the area within 3 kilometers of the airport according to the order of the staff department. Due to the tight task of repairing the bridge, all the outer areas will be investigated by the Air Force. After excluding the existence of living corpses, it has not been cleaned up for the time being. .”

Hearing Zhang Ke's question, the head of the 7th regiment who arrived earlier immediately gave an answer.What he meant was obvious, the 7th regiment had followed the order and had no responsibility.As for where the zombies came from, it's not up to him to ask the Air Force.

"Chief of Staff, our department has conducted three consecutive low-altitude reconnaissances of the area with a radius of 70 kilometers from the airport, using night vision devices and thermal imagers, and found no trace of living corpses." Pick it up clean.

This is completely in line with the regulations of the staff department. Since there are no living corpses, there is no need to kill all the zombies through a sieve. That is not the main task of the vanguard, but the work of the follow-up troops.

"The station chosen by Battalion Commander Jiang meets the needs... It's just that these zombies come here too strangely!" Seeing that the two colleagues had cleared their responsibilities, Yang Ming was not far behind. Also wipe it clean.

When the army and the refugees were mixed to carry out the clean-up mission, there was indeed a case of bombing the camp in the middle of the night.Moreover, the discipline of the refugees is relatively loose, drinking, fighting, and gambling are very serious, and there are examples of sneaking into the army garrison with firearms and ammunition.

In order not to interfere with each other, the Ministry of Armed Forces clearly stipulated a few years ago that no matter what kind of missions are assigned in the future, the refugee camps must be far away from the frontline battlefields, and must not be too close to the army garrisons.

"I'm not looking for responsibility, I just want to hear everyone's views on the zombies attacking the village. As we all know, the zombies will not take the initiative to expand the search range without the living zombies leading them. Today is a rainy night, and their detection range should have been greatly reduced. How could it appear here suddenly?"

If it were Wang Jian, he would definitely be impatient with this way of busy clearing up responsibilities without talking about the matter.But Zhang Ke won't, he has long been used to it, even since he was a child, he has been exposed to these tricks between adults all day long, and he doesn't feel bored at all.

"It stands to reason that it shouldn't have appeared..." The head of the 7th regiment scratched his head. He really didn't know why a large group of zombies suddenly appeared within 5 kilometers of the airport.

"I have ordered the reconnaissance plane to stand by. Do you need to search this direction immediately to see if there are any living corpses?" The Air Force is basically not responsible for this matter, except for the presence of living corpses.For this reason, the squadron leader planned to take a risky night flight to thoroughly confirm whether there were any living corpses nearby.

"...Well, it's okay, let the pilot pay attention to safety, and turn around in the north, northwest, and west directions. But don't fly too far, 20 kilometers is enough."

Zhang Ke thinks this suggestion is very good, if there are living corpses wandering around, there will be big trouble.If you don't kill it, let alone the vagrant coachman, the two regiments and two squadrons stationed here will all face annihilation.

"Report, the zombies have been cleaned up, and we have no casualties. A total of 381 zombies were killed, of which 74 were recently infected. According to preliminary statistics, 81 people from Changfeng and Zhongyi transportation companies are missing, including 51 from Changfeng and Zhongyi. The company has 30 people.

There are also 47 wounded, all of whom have been isolated and monitored in the village. No abnormality has been found for the time being. It is expected that the military doctor will enter in an hour. "While speaking, a regiment staff officer ran over, held up the notebook in his hand, and began to report the battle situation and battle damage.

"Why are there no statistics from Ping An Transportation Company?" Zhang Ke listened carefully and immediately raised a question.

"Report to the Chief of Staff. The Ping An Company has also counted. They have no missing persons. Only two drivers' feet were stabbed while crossing the river. After the military doctor's diagnosis, it was indeed a normal trauma. The bandage has been completed and all the staff are resting on the south bank of the river. !"

When the junior staff officer saw the senior staff officer, his expression was a little nervous, but his brain and articulation did not stretch his hips, and he answered the officer's question clearly and clearly, then saluted, and waited for the next order.

"Go and invite the team leaders and persons in charge of the three transportation companies over here! Pay attention, they have just experienced life and death, and their emotions may be agitated, so your attitude should be better!" Zhang Ke returned the salute and warned a few more words, The little staff officer was sent away.

"It's a heavy loss... If they can't carry out the logistics tasks, then I may become the first officer who has not completed the cleanup task since the establishment of the Union Army.

Guess how I feel at this moment?That's right, it's a little frustrating and regretful, but more of a curiosity.Of the three transport companies, two of them lost more than half, and the other was unscathed.Commander Yang, do you still remember the precautions I mentioned to your battalion commander when we first met yesterday? "

When the little staff officer walked away, the smile on Zhang Kepang's face disappeared immediately.Nearly a hundred coachmen were killed or injured in one night. The reason was that a self-righteous officer did not pay enough attention to the warning he gave.Although it is impossible to shift the responsibility to someone now, it must be mentioned.

"... Battalion Commander Jiang arranged the station on the other side of the river, which is also in line with..." Hearing this, Yang Ming's heart twitched. What's the matter, this is to push the responsibility on the 8th regiment's head!That's impossible. Don't look at you as the deputy chief of staff. Whoever comes has to be reasonable. Which order did Jiang Ping violate?

"Yes, he did not violate the order, but he did not execute the order 100%. What did I say at the time? I clearly told him that there were conflicts among the three transportation companies. How did he answer me? He said he would make Corresponding arrangements, it seems that a company was specially sent to closely monitor, right?

Come, come, tell me, would you feel irresponsible if the officers under you carried out orders like this on the battlefield?How about I send a telegram to Wang Yingan right away, asking if he also trains officers according to his responsibilities! "

It has come to this moment, but Zhang Ke is still busy shirking responsibility, which makes Zhang Ke very annoyed.Could it be that being a soldier and fighting a war is the same as sitting in an office, as long as you clear all the responsibilities, you can hang on to nothing and have nothing to do with yourself!

"..." As the saying goes, senior officials crush people to death. Seeing the young deputy chief of staff really get angry, the two army regiment chiefs and one air force squadron leader could only stand at attention and listen to the training, and no longer dared to talk back casually.

How to talk about this matter, if you have to say who should be responsible, or go to a military court, it is really difficult to define.But when it comes to a certain issue, it is really not well done.

Unlike civilians, the army can still convict people according to the terms of the law.Not completing the task assigned by the above is a big mistake in itself, there is no need to talk about anything, as long as you hold on to this one, it will be enough for everyone present to drink a pot.

Coincidentally, the deputy chief of staff in front of me, who is younger than many platoon leaders, just has the ability to make matters worse.Now everyone can only pray that he calms down quickly, and hope that the injured coachmen are not seriously injured and can continue to participate in the clean-up operation.

Chapter 816

"I've made it very clear that now is not the time to discuss responsibility, but to clarify the matter. If it slides over without knowing why, and you don't even know how the zombies came, then this cleanup operation must be stopped. God knows if after crossing the river and really entering the zombie-controlled area, it will come again!"

Zhang Ke didn't really want to make matters worse. Not only would he lose face, but he would also cause Jiao Qiao a lot of trouble, and let people in the government make sarcastic remarks.

No matter how factions are divided within the army, and no matter how inconsistent their thinking is, at least for now it seems that they can basically be consistent with the outside world.This threat only made the chief officers of the battlefield put away their little thoughts and focus on the business.

"Chief of Staff, I'll go gather the team right away and ask the matter clearly!"

Hearing that the chief of staff did not want to be held accountable, the stone in Yang Ming's heart finally fell to the ground.As for the investigation to be clear, he also thought, and now he is also wondering, how can the unlucky one not die, but the murderer is crying all over the place.

"Well, Commander Gao, immediately send someone to search the area within 3 kilometers, focusing on looking for traces of zombies. It rained heavily last night, so there should be footprints. In addition, we will send troops to cooperate with the Air Force to conduct a search within 5 kilometers. Do an investigation in the villages and towns in the country to ensure that this kind of incident does not happen again!"

Just asking the soldiers who were on duty by the river last night, Zhang Ke felt that it was not enough, and he had to cast a wider net.There is no need to do anything now, including rushing to repair the bridge, stop immediately, call everyone back, and find out the whole story as soon as possible, otherwise there is really no way to cross the river.

With an order, everything flying in the sky and running on the ground became busy, and the entire airport immediately became a frontline base.The army put up heavy machine guns and mortars, and the air force also launched light infantry combat vehicles specially used to guard the airport, and distributed them around as fixed firepower points.

Compared with the soldiers with loaded guns and drawn knives, last night's protagonists, the coachmen, have become spectators at this time.After being questioned by Zhang Ke, the coachmen of the three companies were taken over by two troops respectively. They put on horses and carts, some of them went to rest at the army station on the east side of the expressway, and some went directly to the airport to be received by the Air Force.

When asked what Zhang Ke had asked, Wang Gang’s answer was to ask everything. He wanted to start with what he did in the old world and who was in his family. It was not like an interrogation at all, but more like a chat over drinking.

Then how did he answer it? There is no need to worry too much about this. The refugees who have survived to this day are all nonsense, and they understand what can be said and what cannot be said.

Coupled with Hong Tao's ear-to-eye instruction, any open and secret infighting between transportation companies must be readily admitted, and they must be scolded face-to-face, showing full of resentment.But last night's situation was that I didn't know what to ask, and I had to fall asleep after a day of exhaustion, except for the night watch who didn't even know that it was raining heavily.

Why do you run so neatly? You can brag at this time.It must be that the leaders are well-trained, well-trained and experienced at ordinary times. When they go out, they all sleep in their clothes. When they hear the gunshot, they immediately carry their small bags and pull each other's clothes corners, and run away following the captain's yelling.

Without knowing what was going on, the captain ran when told to run, climbed when asked, and entered the water when asked, without asking too many questions or delaying.Without this basic quality, you are not worthy of driving a cart in Ping An Transportation Company!

Then why do you know to run south as soon as you come up?Wang Gang smiled and pointed to the guard next to him.The soldiers were encamped in the south, and the airport was also in the south. There were gunshots outside, and there were people in the dark. It was definitely safer to run in the direction of the barracks than to run around blindly.This is also the wisdom of life, it doesn't need to be pondered hard at all, it has already been integrated into the bone marrow.

As for what the two companies Changfeng and Zhongyi said, Wang Gang didn't know. They were not sitting together, but were called into the tent alone for questioning, and they didn't even see each other when they left.

"Sun Changzhong is going to cry this time, hahaha... Brother Zhou, guess what? I didn't see Jin Yonghui and Zhu Zhenrong among the people who went to see the high officials. There was only Sun Ning, with one arm still hanging and his face full They were all bruised and purple, not to mention how miserable they looked.

Three sworn brothers came out, and he went back alone. Hey, this time I will see how he confesses to Sun Changzhong.It's really a turn of events, they also have this day!

Oh yes, Brother Zhou, you have to be experienced in this matter, and you have asked the brothers to clean up all the soft and soft things early on.If you are not prepared, the sudden desire to run in the middle of the night is enough! "Blowing it up in front of the high officials, and being praised severely, Wang Gang was a little flustered again.

He thinks that the fact that the coachmen can save their lives is indeed related to his leadership and training.Of course, I haven't dared to enjoy the rich experience alone, so I gave Hong Tao some credit.

"If you want to go back alive, listen to my advice. First, drink less alcohol, let alone get drunk; second, treat everyone as an enemy except us, and be vigilant at all times; third, There are a lot of cheap ones, so don't rush to grab them first, carefully check if there is any danger nearby, and then find a way out before moving.

Go to sleep, we didn't close our eyes last night, not only are we tired, but everyone is also frightened, so we should sleep more... Don't forget to arrange someone to keep watch and watch what the soldiers are doing! "

Hong Tao really wanted to slap him in the face, but he was ashamed to show his merit.If it weren't for you and Populus euphratica, I wouldn't have to run so far to be tricked, and let the zombie's big feet step on me, my back still hurts now!

To say that human life in the last days is really worthless, even the East Asian Alliance government, which always talks about improving the treatment of refugees, does not care much about the life and death of refugees in their bones. As long as it does not affect the overall situation, they will die if they die.

Two days later, the drivers of the three transportation companies were brought to the river by the army to attend the funeral of the dead drivers.Dozens of corpses were stacked layer by layer on the pile of firewood. Most of them could no longer be identified. Their heads were wrapped in military uniforms, and they were doused with gasoline and turned into fireballs.

Zhang Ke delivered a eulogy to the dead coachmen on behalf of the Union army and the government. There was nothing new about it.

The only meaningful thing is to announce that the deceased will be compensated according to the standards of the employees of the freight company. In this way, the family members of each deceased can get more pensions, and those without family members and wills will belong to the company.

Before the fire is lit, a representative from each company places offerings on it.Wang Gang presented a small wreath. After hearing about the ceremony the first night, he temporarily picked some wild flowers near the airport.
