Volume 3 Chapter 1554
Chapter 1554 You die
In the cold city, countless high-rise buildings stand like a forest. The prosperous provincial capital city before the end of the world is like a dying monster. It can't even exert any strength to struggle. It can only wait quietly to lose the last breath and slowly rot. Knowing to turn into wreck-like ruins.
The centerline of the street is as clean as most cities in China. Except for the mounds of garbage piled up on both sides, the ground in the centerline of the street has been wiped clean by zombies with the soles of their feet. No grass grows in any wide places. Planting is occupied.
Cracks are the most common in the city, whether it is the road or the floor, more or less there are some, collapsed street lamps, collapsed metal garbage cans, and fire hydrants spraying water, patches of water are all over the city On every corner of the street, some even formed lakes in the low-lying areas. Most of the parks and flower clusters were full of greenery, with occasional spots of black, which were zombies stuck inside and unable to get out.
A few kilometers from the entrance of the city, a street appears alive with depressing rigor. To be precise, the center of the street, which is more than 500 meters long, has become an artificial military cordon.
On both sides of the clean street, there are all kinds of front doors with signboards. Most of the floor-to-ceiling windows of the front doors have been broken, and the shattered glass is broken into sand-like particles on the sidewalk. Countless crystal sands are evenly linear. Pile up in the corner, but the zombies wandered unconsciously, smashing the glass and kicking it aside.
The dilapidated storefronts on both sides stretched all the way, and were blocked by various obstacles at the end of the street. The empty-shell cars with only iron sheets were pushed together, with thick sandbags piled on them, and the rifles stood motionless on the sandbags. , behind the muzzle of the gun, a pair of cold eyes stared fixedly at another similar-looking fortification five hundred meters away.
Behind the confronting troops on both sides is another look. Various vehicles found from the underground garage were pushed to the open space outside for maintenance. Various tools and oil cans were neatly arranged behind the vehicles. The year the car was restarted.
There was an endless stream of people coming in and out of the doors and windows of each store. These people were like a group of robbers, kicking open the gate, rushing into the house, killing everything that could move inside, and transporting all kinds of materials found inside to pile up outside.
Li Zhi stood beside the mountains of supplies and frowned, feeling agitated. He knew that today was the eighth day, and according to his promise, he should have delivered the first batch of weapons and ammunition to China as early as five days ago. The front line, but until now they are still pinned down here, the only thing they can do is to squeeze out most of the wrong ammunition and send them over. Sending these ammunition can only express his heart, but it cannot get Huang Quan's approval, because the front line needs more.
Although a lot of people's livelihood materials were found, not many guns and ammunition were found. Three police stations, one public security bureau, and one armed police squadron found less than 200 Type 95 rifles and 20,000 rounds of ammunition in total. In addition, more than a hundred 9mm revolver police pistols and Type 77 police pistols were found, as well as some shotguns and 85 sniper rifles. To get any extra points for him, what Huang Quan needs are millions of bullets and a lot of firearms.
The army on the opposite side delayed him for a full five days. The huge city was like a piece of cream cake without any packaging. Neither side wanted to let it go, and neither side allowed others to do it.
It is said that such a large city can provide a place for tens of millions of people to live. Even if the manpower on both sides is combined, it will not be used up for a hundred years. The proposal was conditional. They had to hand over all the weapons and ammunition they found, and they could only take away what they could.
In this way, the whole city belongs to the army, and Li Zhi will never agree. The whole city was bought by their comrades in arms. The army doesn't pay anything, just want to get them to fight hard for eight days and consume a lot of supplies and ammunition A city that was just vacated? This cannot be promised in any case.
"Captain, Captain, there is news from the commander in chief..."
The signal soldier came running from behind him with an order briefing in his hand. Hearing the call from the signal soldier behind him, Li Zhifei was not happy, and his heart sank to the bottom of the sea.
"Is Huang Quan imprisoning me, or making me commit suicide?"
Li Zhi's stiff cheeks were similar to those of a zombie, his whole body seemed to be covered by dark clouds, his eyes lost focus, like a terminally ill patient who was dying, with a hint of resignation, and some unwillingness in his words.
"Neither...none of them, the commander-in-chief ordered our department to be ready, let us cooperate with attack helicopters to defeat them after the failure to persuade them to surrender..."
"What?"
Li Zhi jumped up suddenly, grabbed the communication soldier by the neckline, the communication soldier was frightened by Li Zhi's appearance, tremblingly said the order again, and was pushed away by Li Zhi, the whole person seemed to be resurrected, He danced around in circles, and after three circles, he stopped, turned around, and shouted at the people behind him:
"Prepare me a white flag..."
Li Zhi was carrying a two-meter-high flagpole, crossed the fortifications with a huge white sheet on his back, and walked towards the opposite side. Under the yelling of the officer, prepare for the battle.
Li Zhi, who was carrying the white flag, was not very scared. His previous hesitation was because the front line was fighting fiercely, and he had no time to take care of his partial army. Now that he had support, it was the most powerful air support, and his confidence was different. The army on the opposite side In his eyes, he has become a chicken dog. Does he have to be afraid of a group of chickens?
Li Zhi carelessly walked towards the opposite side, and as he gradually approached, his calves began to tremble, and the urge to urinate made him want to turn around all the time, not because he was awake, but because more than a hundred rifles and three heavy machine guns were aimed at him, What if, what if that guy's fingers trembled?
At the end, Li Zhi insisted on walking to the opposite sandbag, opened his mouth and shouted loudly:
"I'm an emissary, I'm an emissary, don't open the insurance, wait until I get in... Li Zhi, who was so stiff, couldn't remember how he got in. In front of the sandbags, the muzzles of more than a hundred rifles were dark Only after making gestures did I realize that zombies are not the scariest thing, but the enemy's bullet holes.
After Li Zhi came in, he was also in a daze. He walked in front of the highest officer of the army, a young-looking officer with snow-white temples.
"Are you ready to surrender? Our backup troops are coming soon. By that time, our troops will be four times yours. It's not enough for you to have more than a thousand people..."
The officer was very confident, and his strong voice carried an irresistible magnetic voice. Hearing these majestic words, Li Zhi couldn't help but nodded. Suddenly, Huang Quan's warning glance before he left flashed in his mind. , suddenly the whole person was sober, and he shook his head again and again, but the officer's eyebrows were raised, and a mocking sneer was split at the corner of his mouth.
"Until the Yellow River, my heart will never die..."
The officer followed up with a sarcasm, which immediately made Li Zhi's anxiety in an unfamiliar environment disappear. Why can't he use this sentence on the military? Li Zhi seemed to be a different person in an instant, he straightened his slightly stooped back, his eyes stopped dodging, he stared at the officer's eyes, and for the first time looked at the officer in front of him head-on.
Although the officer has white sideburns, his complexion is not old, and his shiny skin has no wrinkles. If one ignores his hair color, this man is not yet thirty, and his bright eyes, with whom others When they looked at each other, they involuntarily shone with a bright light, and their eyes were fixed and not scattered, unlike Li Zhi, who would still involuntarily drift even if he stared at others.
"I..., we are just a small army..."
Li Zhi finally spoke, his voice was not as strong and powerful as that of the officer, his tone was a little floating, and his speech was a little stuttering, but as he gradually calmed down, the timidity just now gradually disappeared.
"You can enter the city not because you are strong enough, but because you took advantage of it... We tried to get out of the city all the zombies gathered in the city, otherwise you would not be able to..."
"What are zombies?"
The sneer at the corner of the officer's mouth disappeared, and his eyes became serious. Although he didn't believe Li Zhi's words, he knew about the disappearance of millions of zombies. If it wasn't for the disappearance of the zombies, they might not be able to enter the city.
"It's the living dead wandering around the streets. They used to be human, but they are no longer human after being infected by the virus. You should be very clear about these things. Only the head is the key to their whole body. It is similar to the zombies in the previous Resident Evil movies. Although it doesn’t look like…”
Li Zhi explained to the officer that the officer rolled his eyes and didn't listen carefully. He asked on purpose. His purpose was to know whether Li Zhi and the others had more knowledge than them. After the end of the world, all intelligence and technical support were cut off. , their own military strength is also greatly depleted, everything depends on themselves, and they can survive until today on the basis of their previous capital. If their capital is not exhausted, they will not find ways to enter the city, and it is impossible for them to enter the city as soon as the zombies leave. City.
So he deliberately asked Li Zhi some questions about zombies. He didn't believe that it was true that as Li Zhi said, tens of millions of zombies were drawn out of the city. He didn't think it could be done by manpower. He wanted to know The most important thing is whether there are other people and troops behind Li Zhi. Unexpectedly, following Li Zhi's narration, the officer's face turned serious with surprise.
"Sit down in my office and talk, there are some things to talk about slowly..."
When Li Zhi talked about the general distribution of zombies in Hubei and the number of zombies left in Wuhan so far, the officers suddenly felt a little uneasy. It is impossible for them to support the unit reserve warehouse until now. Even so, they still do not have the confidence to fight a large-scale battle. Although there is no shortage of bullets, there is a shortage of well-trained soldiers and professional sergeants who can master technical weapons.
All kinds of shortages made this army of 18,000 people and 4,000 troops shrink back. They could only carefully clean up the scattered zombies, and did not dare to take the initiative to attack the city. Now that he heard Li Zhi's detailed description, he began to suspect that maybe Li Zhi What Zhi said may not be all lies.
"What is your purpose for coming to us?"
The officer suddenly interrupted Li Zhi's narration, Li Zhi was stunned, and said involuntarily:
"Our commander-in-chief is angry at your actions, and asked me to come over to persuade you to surrender. If you still stand against us, wait for our support forces to come..."
"Oh? You want to hurt both of us?"
The officer interrupted Li Zhi's words, and the sneer and ridicule floated on the corner of his mouth again, but Li Zhi shook his head and said:
"It's not that both sides are hurting, it's you who live and die..."
"Hahahahaha!!!"
The officer leaned back and laughed, halfway through the smile, the joyless laughter stopped abruptly, and asked coldly:
"Why?"
"It's because of the 100,000 people behind us, the tens of thousands of troops, the tens of thousands of battle-tested troops, and the millions of zombies who died in their hands..."
"enough……"
The officer yelled loudly, got up and walked to the window, looking at the soldiers lined up outside the window, the boredom in his heart suddenly subsided, and suddenly he laughed, the chuckle turned into a big laugh, he could hardly stand still, he held the window and turned his head Staring at Li Zhi:
"Let me see your army..."
"Ha! Haha..., you will see each other in two hours..."
Li Zhi made a haha, turned around and walked out the door. The officer stood in the room and watched him go out. There was no need for the two sides to talk anymore. They both thought they were the most powerful, but at the same time they didn't understand each other. Naturally, he wouldn't compromise on his real strength. If it was another time, Huang Quan wouldn't be able to talk to the people in the army slowly, but right now, they don't have the patience.
