Doomsday rat

"I hope you don't get in there when the time comes. If you don't take advantage, you will lose Qingqing's life." Hong Tao stopped smiling and walked slowly towards the cabin until his short and puffy back disappeared completely through the gate of the cafeteria area.

He doesn't have much affection for this Manager Wang, but he doesn't dislike him either. He's just a very ordinary little guy, a little greedy but timid, a little calculating but short-sighted.Most people may be so happy with the situation, and it is really unbearable to blow them up together.

But if Zhao Bin is not killed, in addition to being difficult to calm down the resentment in his heart, more people may die, such as the upcoming war.At this time, it was tantamount to doing the multiple-choice question of turning the switch. Hong Tao still resolutely chose to let the train drive on the track with fewer people.

"Damn it, let's wait and see..." After returning to the hut, he did not prepare the fish, but pried open a floor and took out a cannonball from below, and slowly screwed on the fuze.

This is a high-explosive bomb painted with yellow paint, with a charge of more than 2 kilograms, and the bomb body is made of rare earth ductile iron.According to the instruction manual, the killing radius is as high as 17 meters, and the coverage area can be as large as two basketball courts.

However, judging from Hong Tao’s test firing experience, this number should be measured under the most ideal conditions. It is comparable to the minimum fuel consumption of fuel vehicles marked by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology. It only exists in theory, and it will be greatly discounted in practice.

Anyway, there is still a radius of ten meters.In addition to shrapnel, there are also various sundries that were blown up and splashed, and the lethality in the building must be considerable.

As long as no one disturbs me, all 2 high-explosive bombs here can be fired in about 12 minutes.Assuming that the roof of the hall can block the bombardment of three shells, there should be nine more shells that can enter the interior and explode, and the probability of killing Zhao Bin is quite high.

Even if he is not killed or injured, more than half of the high-level officials among the hundreds of redeemers in this room will have to be scrapped.Without their help, no matter how powerful Zhao Bin is, he will be seriously injured. Not only will he not be able to launch the southward war in a short period of time, but his dominance over the base will also be affected.

As for whether he could hit the roof of the auditorium with one shot, Hong Tao felt that it was not a big problem.During the recuperation period, I was not idle, and spent most of my time practicing artillery observation and aiming skills.Too far to dare to say, the range of about 3 kilometers is still a bit small.

Of course, I have to thank Mr. Wang, if he is not greedy for petty gain, he is not willing to spend money to hire someone, so that he can go to the roof of the building to repair the awning damaged by the strong wind for free, and he will not have the opportunity to use the distance measurement function of the telescope to reduce the error. to the meter level.

Chapter 599 The Plan Can't Keep Up With Changes

"Tat, ta, ta, bang, bang, bang... Chow Tai Fook, Chow Tai Fook!" Just as the fuzes of the 8 high-explosive bombs were screwed on and a proper amount of propellant was installed, the sound of footsteps coming from far and near came to my ears.Soon there was a heavy knock on the door of the room, and Mr. Wang's slightly shrill voice sounded anxious.

Before the knock on the door sounded, Hong Tao had already fastened the floor and placed a dirty vat specially used to hold fish viscera.When he opened the door, he was wearing a dirty leather apron, carrying a knife in one hand and live fish in the other, as if he was slaughtering.

"Wang... Manager, this is..." Just as he was about to call out to the director, he swallowed the second half of it back.Director Wang was not alone, and a nun in a red robe followed behind her.

"Quick, quick, pick the fattest fish, and bring the fish slaughterer with me!" Director Wang urged anxiously without any introduction.

"Good thing... I mentioned your matter to President Jiang. He is in a good mood today. I heard that you can kill the fish without opening it. I want to see it with my own eyes. By the way, I will cut two plates of raw fish I ate the meal first, and the banquet in the evening is said to be a meal, but it is actually a social gathering, and if you are not busy enough, there is no time to really eat."

"Don't be stage-frightened, kid, maybe you'll be fine if you take care of this ID card! Speaking of which, you're really lucky. You don't need to take anything to get the identity that others have been thinking about for several years."

It wasn't until Hong Tao got on the tricycle outside with a copper basin and a fresh fish that he had just caught, and Director Wang himself pedaled carefully behind the red-robed nun's bicycle to drive deep into the base, that he didn't know where he was going and what to see. people.

"It's not that you think about me, I will always remember this kind of heart, and there must be due thanks."

After hearing these words, Hong Tao was completely relieved. He still had a flattering smile on his face, and his mouth was also very sensible. Off-center chances are stuffed into the corner sack pile.

This tricycle is what I usually use to pick up fish from the south side of the bridge. It is full of fishy fish scales and blood, and generally no one will move it.The shiny green thing is a grenade. If one's identity is found out, and one cannot run away, one can only pull it off, and must not fall into the hands of others.

It’s not that there are any secrets that need to be guarded, but the main reason is that they are afraid of pain and can’t bear the torture. Once the real identity is revealed, whether it’s Zhao Bin or Sun Dacheng, they will definitely not let it go. One death to one hundred.

Manager Wang and the tricycle were not allowed to enter the courtyard gate of the headquarters at all. Hong Tao had no choice but to follow behind the red-robed nun with a copper basin in his hand. The other contraband was brought into this Soviet-style building by a gray-robed judge.

Chairman Jiang Yang's office is on the second floor, less than 200 meters away from the auditorium where the banquet is held in the evening.The titular leader of the Redeemer was well-groomed, with gray hair, and was no older than 50.

When Hong Tao was brought into the room by the red-robed nun, he was holding a book on the recliner. He didn't get up when he saw anyone coming, but he just waved his hand and tapped the floor in front of the desk, which probably meant that he could just perform there. .

But Hong Tao didn't dare to pick up the knife and kill the fish. Instead, he explained to the red-robed nun that the scales of the fish would fly around.

"Very well, take him to find a raincoat to spread, and bring the food along with him... Oh yes, go and ask the bishop if he needs sashimi, I can't finish eating such a large fish alone. "Jiang Yang expressed his satisfaction with this suggestion. He has a strong northwest accent and speaks slowly.

Hong Tao is really good at slaughtering fish. He can use a pair of chopsticks to turn out the gills and internal organs of the fish.

It's not that I learned how to cook with someone, but that I fished when I had nothing to do during the Sailimu Lake. After I caught it, I could only think about cooking and eating it except drying the fish.As the saying goes, practice makes perfect, if you always play with these things every day, if you use your brain a little, you can still learn without being taught.

However, his craftsmanship did not get Jiang Yang's approval. He was a master who had eaten and seen it before. Even if he called the Michelin chef, he could still cut out any flowers.So when the two plates of sashimi were cut, Hong Tao, together with the copper basin containing fish bones and offal, and the raincoat on the carpet, were immediately invited out of the room.

If nothing else happened, he would be escorted out of the building by the adjudicator soon, and return to the cabin by the river to continue tinkering with shells, preparing to come to the heavenly girl to scatter flowers when night fell.Taking advantage of the chaos to escape from the ruins of the city, at most leaving behind Yoro's nameplate and legend.

But the reason why it is called an accident is something that cannot be predicted by calculation alone.Just when the gray-robed adjudicator was about to go down the stairs, his mouth was suddenly covered by a big hand, and a sharp knife with a cow's ear was placed on his neck. There were traces of blood and a strong fishy smell on the cold blade.

"Knock on the door. If anyone asks, just say that President Jiang sent you. If you dare to say a wrong word or speak in a messy tone, this knife will 100% penetrate your neck before I am killed!" Then there was a whisper of gritted teeth, which also carried a fishy smell.

"Come in..." Facts have proved that the gray-robed adjudicator is not loyal to his beliefs. He immediately forgot about the gods when he was held deadly by a sharp knife. Naturally, he would not remember who is the spokesperson of the gods. The door announced his name and purpose of coming, and he was quickly allowed.

"Click... bang... ah... puff!" The door was gently pushed open, and before the people inside could clearly see the face of the visitor, the body of the gray-robed adjudicator rushed in.

This is an inner and outer room. There is only one man and one woman. The man is tall and burly, wearing a straight military uniform and standing by the door of the inner room. .

But he was still half a second behind Hong Tao. Just as the pistol was out of the holster and before the muzzle was raised, the blood column on his neck sprayed out obliquely, creating an abstract painting on the wall.

The woman was wearing a red robe without a hood, she was very young and had a pretty face.But the reaction was a little slow. The officer's bloody painting was almost finished before she thought of shouting and pulling the drawer.

It's a pity that the ox ear sharp knife flew straight over, pierced the hard skull through the forehead without any effort, not only killed her, but also blocked most of the exclamation in her throat.

At the same time as he threw the throwing knife, Hong Tao turned around and looked at the adjudicator who had just got up from the officer's body, his head and face were sprayed with hot blood, and he punched him in the stomach, bending him like a shrimp , with his mouth open and retching.

"Crack..." Seeing that the adjudicator had temporarily lost the ability to resist, Hong Tao bent down and picked up the pistol from the officer's hand. He checked the magazine to make sure it was live ammunition, then grabbed the adjudicator's neck and twisted it. Inside door handle.

"Bang bang bang..." No lock!It's still the same old way, open the door and kick the adjudicator who is still retching.Gunshots rang out immediately, and the forward momentum of the adjudicator was immediately curbed, and he fell crookedly to the right.

"Bang..." In less than a second, Hong Tao squatted down and pulled the trigger.He was quite sure when shooting at a fixed target at a distance of three to four meters. This shot just hit the right arm of the man huddled behind the desk with only half of his head exposed, and the smoking pistol fell to the table. superior.

"If you don't want to die, don't be stupid... I don't need to teach you what to say later, right!" Before the man behind the desk could hold the gun with his left hand, Hong Tao jumped up on the table and pointed the gun condescendingly. The men's hairline is somewhat ebbing.

"...Jiang Yang sent you here? You can ignore his promise at all. Even if I die, he won't get any military power. Do you think it's reliable for a usurper without a gun?"

The middle-aged man sitting behind the table with his left hand covering his right forearm stopped resisting under the threat of the gun, but apart from the pain of the wound making the muscles on his face twitch slightly, he didn't have much panic or timidity. He didn't even ask for mercy, but talked about the power distribution structure of the Redeemer.

Chapter 600 Old Rival

"...Remember what I said, if you dare to play tricks or let anyone come in, we will die in the same year, the same month, and the same day." After just one glance, Hong Tao was 100% sure that this guy was Sun Dacheng.

It's not about remembering the appearance, nor the scars on the face, the two of them only met once and it was at night, how can they see so clearly, the main thing is the eyes, the eyes like a trapped beast are so similar to those back then.

But the other party didn't recognize who he was, which was somewhat surprising.But the sound of footsteps coming from the corridor gave him not much time to discuss this issue. He jumped off the table and stood behind the door, and opened the door halfway.

"If I waited for your protection, I would have died several times, idiot! I'm fine... drag the corpse away, and let someone guard the door. No one is allowed to enter without an order!"

Sun Dacheng was quite stubborn, clutching his wound and saying nothing, leaning on the back of the chair and posing in a comfortable position.After someone rushed into the outer room and saw his situation clearly, he drove him away with a neither high nor low, neither fast nor slow tone and speed, without giving any explanation.

"There should be a first-aid kit here, right? Take it out and clean the wound yourself..." The people outside didn't dare to ask a word, so they backed out full of doubts, and closed the door of the outer room.

From this we can see how domineering the Lord Bishop, or the higher-ups of the Redeemer usually are, they don't need to explain why and certainly don't need to be held accountable for killing two subordinates casually.

"You speak Mandarin very well..." Sun Dacheng slowly opened the bottom drawer on the right with his left hand, took out the first aid kit to treat the wound, and asked casually.

"Hehehe... We are old acquaintances, so we don't need to pretend we don't know each other. That's right, you guessed it right, I'm from the capital, and my surname is Hong and Tao. I was the one who led people to kill your subordinates back then. I was the one who had to run away.”

But Hong Tao didn't take this sentence as a casual question. Since he came in, he didn't need to pretend anymore, and even his accent was restored.The purpose is to remind this guy that there are very few people in Xinjiang who talk about Beijing movies, maybe none of them, but Sun Dacheng is definitely no stranger.

"... You have cheated your death for so many years just for today?!" Even though Sun Dacheng had an extremely firm mind and was considered well-informed, at this time he had to feel a little chilled from the bottom of his heart.

It must be a lot of hatred for this person to abandon the power he has obtained and willingly go to Xinjiang to trouble him.Could it be that his wife or daughter was among the women who were harmed back then?Then I am afraid that death today will be light.

"Don't be so sentimental, think about how powerful you are, and whether it's worth it. I threw away my family and business and came here to trouble you... Hey, hey, chatting is chatting, don't move your left hand. Why don't you just do this Well, in order to avoid accidental injury, please raise your left hand behind your head, it’s better to be tired than dead.”

Hearing Sun Dacheng's question, Hong Tao directly turned his mouth to the base of his ears, his face full of disdain except disdain.What a narcissistic person must be to ask such a disgusting question.

"Don't think about it, I'm not here today because of the previous grievances. But we must have had a festival in the previous life, otherwise it wouldn't be such a coincidence that we would become enemies again after going around." Seeing Sun Dacheng obediently raised a With only one hand, Hong Tao lowered the muzzle of the gun slightly.

"...Chairman Hong, I really don't understand why I offended you again. If you want this place, I am willing to give it to you..." Sun Dacheng has not understood the purpose of this person until now, if it is not for Personal enmity, is it a public matter?

In fact, it is not very reliable to think so. There are so many spies and agents in the East Asian Alliance. No matter how you take the lead, it is impossible for the top leader to become an assassin.But if you can't figure it out, you have to talk, otherwise you will die faster and more confused.

"Your people killed a man and a woman in Sailimu Lake, right? You also forced Yuro to jump into the glacier and nearly freeze to death, right? Those shepherds are my friends. You are not wronged, right?" Although Sun Dacheng was already under control and could be killed at any time, Hong Tao had to spend a few more words.

If I hadn't come out of Jiangyang House to get a raincoat from the utility room at the end of the corridor, and saw the red-robed nun knocking on the door of this room, I wouldn't have known that Zhao Bin's office was here.

Now Chong has rushed in, and he has indeed caught someone alive. There is no need to wait for the night to bombard a large area with shells, but how should he get out?The guards inside this building are not too strict, but the outside is really three steps, one post, five steps and one sentry, and if you charge hard, you will definitely be beaten into a sieve.

"Yu, Yuluo is your man!" If Sun Dacheng was able to show a calm demeanor just now, he is really a little panicked now.

He couldn't figure out why Hong Tao came back from the dead, let alone the relationship between this legendary figure and Yu Luo.If you are just kidnapped by the enemy, as long as you don't kill yourself as soon as you come up, you will definitely be able to get out through negotiations.

But faced with a lot of unknowns and question marks, I really don't know what to do. There must be a breakthrough in bargaining, so just choose what you like.But why this person in front of him came and what he wanted, he had no idea at all.

"Can't I be Yuluo? Take a closer look, do I look like a messenger of justice!"

If anyone wants to say that Jiao San is Yu Luo, Hong Tao will never believe it.In the same way, except for myself, no one would believe that the leader of a survivor team would fake his death for eight years in order to become a hero. This is not a hero, but a psychopath.

"... You already knew I was here?" Sun Dacheng certainly didn't believe it either.

"If I had known earlier, what came here would not be one person, but an army. Speaking of which, you have been the emperor here for seven or eight years, and you should have had enough addiction. To be a man, you must be content. You can't hold on to good things all the time. Let it go, it will shorten your life."

Hong Tao has no obligation to explain to Sun Dacheng, but listening to the movement in the corridor and the outer room, he knows that the gunshots just now have alarmed the people in the building. No matter how they judge what happened in the room, he cannot easily leave this place. building.Simply close the curtains first, so as not to let the snipers take advantage.

Right now, it is necessary not to make Sun Dacheng feel too desperate, but also not to let him see through his true thoughts.This guy is also a ruthless person, as long as he finds the hope of life, he might take risks.

"Now that you have recognized me, let's just say it, what do you want? If anyone wants me to step down, there must be a suitable replacement. Otherwise, I will leave one day, and the next day will be here." It will be of no benefit to anyone if it can become a battlefield."

Just like what Hong Tao thought, after a few minutes of panic, Sun Dacheng's ruthlessness from the bottom of his bones was revealed again, and he still didn't want to admit cowardice in the face of the black hole of the gun.His success is indeed not entirely a coincidence, character and experience accounted for a large proportion.

"Hey, in this way, the tens of thousands of people in the refugee ghetto and the people you cleaned up should thank you for not killing them. Oh yes, and those nuns who are used as reproductive machines... I sometimes It's hard to understand why weird things happen wherever you are. Are you abnormal, or are everyone abnormal?"

Faced with Sun Dacheng's eloquent talk, Hong Tao's answer was to kick the injured arm.Let you talk back!Let you quibble!It is really hopeless to shirk responsibility without thinking about repentance.

"Hey... I'm telling the truth, you may not understand. When I first came here, I didn't think so much. I didn't even know if I could survive. I just wanted to find a place to survive. Everything I saw made me have to Think about it, do you know what the survivors were like at that time?"

It would be nonsense to say that Sun Dacheng is not afraid of death.It's just that his way of survival is not to cry bitterly, nor is it to beg bitterly, but to try to reason and convince people with reason.

"Hmph, you seem to have studied my character specifically... Congratulations, you are on the right track. Come on, tell me what good deeds you have done for the survivors. If it is true, I might really forgive you One life."

Hong Tao saw through the other party's intention in an instant, but he didn't stop him. He even pulled over a chair and sat two meters away from Sun Dacheng, putting on a posture of listening attentively.Of course, the muzzle still has to be held.

601 Old Rival 2

"At that time, there were only four of us, and we felt something was wrong when we first arrived in Urumqi. The survivors here, like the rescue team, the Flying Tigers and the Peaceful Refugees, each had their own territory and guarded against each other. Or it's the ethnic group that differentiates interests. From Chairman Hong's point of view, you should be able to imagine what the state of such groups will be like?"

Facing the black muzzle of the gun and the ferocious face without any expression, Sun Dacheng really held his breath. Not only did he say it, but he also said it very provocatively. Meaning of fool.

"... Those nuns are also for fusion?!" Hong Tao was silent, did not pull the trigger, and did not kick Sun Dacheng's injured arm.

What Sun Dacheng said may be true. Fang Wenlin also talked about this issue when he talked with himself about the separation and reunion of survivor groups in Xinjiang Province, and it was more detailed and there were specific examples.

The reason why I don't have this feeling is not that I have contacted few survivors of various races, but that I have been wandering around busy building a backup base for the past two or three years, and I didn't pay attention at all.

The Redeemer had been established for several years when it really started interacting with outsiders. Under the constraints of more extreme rules, the barriers between the various ethnic groups were basically subdued, and they were no longer the main contradiction.

If anything, it might be the battle between the Redeemer and the Rebels, two groups that represent two completely different governance models.

The former chose to use extreme means to force the integration, and whoever is unwilling will be eliminated from the spirit to the body.The latter is more willing to maintain the status quo, and through continuous communication and cooperation, subtly change the inherent customs and habits.

Which side is right and which side is wrong?Hong Tao was also unable to make a clear judgment.Although the rules of the Redeemer are not very humane, they are effective quickly and thoroughly. As long as they persist for more than ten years, at most decades, there will be basically no ethnic distinctions in this land.

The rebels' method is more tolerant, but the effect is not significant, and it is uncertain whether they will succeed in the end.If you have to evaluate which is higher or lower, you can only use different environments as the criterion.

If it is placed in the early stage of the outbreak of the zombie disease, life and death are the primary contradictions, and the method of the redeemer is better, which can quickly unite people to form a joint force.But after entering a period of steady development, the concept of the rebel army is more suitable, so as not to over-concentrate power and cause abuse.

Now the problem of the Redeemer is this. No matter how Sun Dacheng justifies and beautifies, he is actually a feudal king, who speaks his word and says what he says.The development trend of the group depends entirely on his one-sidedness. In the long run, it is too unstable and too easy to go to extremes.

Moreover, the gap between the rich and the poor is too large, and the high-level officials occupy almost all the means of production and live a life of luxury and lust.The middle and lower levels are the worker bees and ants, who are busy all day long but can't get farts.The refugees simply became livestock, and their lives could not be guaranteed.

"You underestimate the problem of intermarriage. The most important thing is to completely solve the integration between ethnic groups. The East Asian Alliance also canceled free love and changed it to a combination of lottery. I was inspired by it and went a step further. .”

Seeing that Hong Tao's attitude eased, Sun Dacheng calmly intensified his verbal offensive, trying to gain a foothold in reason first, and this was the only chance he thought he could get out of the predicament.

"Oh, leave all the young and beautiful women for yourself and the higher-ups to enjoy, and you also learned from the East Asian Union!" Hong Tao's eyes immediately turned into triangles when he heard that someone dared to slander the group marriage method he advocated in disguise.

"Uh... People are always selfish. If there is no benefit at all, no one would be willing to think about others all day. In fact, the fertility rate has been increasing in recent years. In the current situation, the number of the next generation should be the most important parameter. Other issues can be put aside, and it will not be too late to consider other issues when the population base rises to a certain level.”

Sun Dacheng did not flinch, and continued to talk about the rationality of his establishment of this set of rules, while also admitting some selfishness.This sounds easier to gain recognition, after all, you are not facing ordinary people, and it would be too fake to just talk about the advantages.

"It's too late. In some things, besides achieving the goal, you have to stick to the bottom line. There is no doubt that you have the ability, but the only thing you lack is the bottom line. I want to give you a few suggestions, maybe it can be saved. Your own life and the lives of many people, do you want to try it?"

It can be said that the two have known each other for a long time, but it was the first time they had a face-to-face detailed talk.Before, Sun Dacheng was always treated as a beast and killed quickly, without considering other issues.

Through this close contact, Hong Tao suddenly felt that this person was not all a heinous villain, he still had some ideas and vision, but he was too pursuing the result and neglecting the process too much.

Such people are not uncommon in history, but they can always be seen in troubled times.Some succeeded, some failed.Measured only in terms of brutal methods and the number of murders, Sun Dacheng is relatively restrained, not even ranked.

As far as the group of the Redeemer alone is concerned, there are merits from a macro perspective.At least it has effectively integrated a large number of ethnic groups that contradict each other from the bottom of their hearts, avoiding the situation of attacking each other while fighting against zombies.

If we can make a slight change on this basis, it may not be worse than taking over the management of the East Asian Union, and it may be even better.The management method I created is really not a universal truth that can be used anywhere, at least it will not have much effect in a short period of time in Xinjiang Province, and it may be even worse.

The most troublesome thing is that there may not be much time to slowly adjust by trial and error. If the zombie disease really produces a new variant that can infect animals and then infect humans, then the top priority for human survivors is to compete for population, Resources and territory, turn back to how to fight new diseases.

In this short period of time, no one is sure to do better than Sun Dacheng.It's easy to kill him, as soon as you move your finger, it's gone, but who should lead the tens of thousands of survivors here?Once a new power struggle breaks out, the outcome may be worse than it is now.

"Are you a lobbyist for the East Asian Union? I am puzzled. Back then, you were in a firm position and had a high reputation. Why did you use the plane crash as an excuse to disappear without a trace, and why did you come here? coming?"

As soon as he heard that he didn't have to die, even though Sun Dacheng tried his best not to show too much surprise, his body and expression still responded.The mood has changed drastically, and even curiosity is just around the corner.

"Ah..." But the severe pain in his arm immediately made him straighten his mind, grinning his teeth and holding back not daring to scream, his eyes involuntarily glanced at the muzzle of the gun.

"I don't have time to chat with you. Listen carefully, there are three things in total. First, abolish the nun system as soon as possible, and I have no objection to forced marriage to increase the birth rate, but don't use this method."

"They are human beings too. What you do is treating people as livestock. This is what I call the bottom line!" Hong Tao retracted his foot from Sun Dacheng's injured arm and stretched out a finger.
