Chapter 371: Burning the Zombie Tide
In a rainstorm, zombies will be greatly strengthened.
So.
Survivors are sometimes afraid of dark clouds, because dark clouds sometimes mean rain.
This rain lasted for more than a week.
From the initial drizzle, to the later moderate rain, and now the downpour.
In the heavy rain, the zombies, like crazy and tireless beasts, constantly attack the base wall.
These zombies are so crazy that they keep poking the concrete wall with their hands.
Under the scouring of rain, some walls were poked out of a small hole by these zombies.
But after all, it is made of reinforced concrete.
The width of the hole is several dozen centimeters, but the depth is only one or two centimeters.
After poking inside, it becomes more and more difficult for the zombies to open it, because a lot of steel bars and stones are poured inside.
This is the effect that these zombies can achieve day and night for more than a week.
It’s just that the width of the wall has reached more than 4 meters after several widenings.
That is to say, it is equal to more than 400 centimeters. According to the speed of these zombies, it will take at least seven or eight years to open the wall if it keeps raining.
Li Yu also saw these zombies knocking on the wall while standing on the wall, but he was not too worried about it.
It's just that there are more and more zombie corpses under the wall now, and some have piled up into a small hill.
Especially at the gate.
Li Yu thought about it, so he took out the walkie-talkie and said to Li Hang:
"Xiao Hang, you and Da Pao go to the oil depot and get a barrel of gasoline. There are too many zombie corpses now, let's burn them."
Li Hang said on the walkie-talkie: "Okay. I'll go now."
He had wanted to use gasoline to burn these zombies for a long time.
The gasoline was connected in a piece, and it was very exciting to think about burning these zombies.
The rain was pouring.
The sky was leaking.
The rain soaked Li Yu's clothes, and also wet the cigarettes in his pocket.
So he put the cigarettes in the duty room, one by one on the table, waiting for natural drying.
As soon as I came out of the duty room, I saw Li Hang and Da Pao carrying a bucket of gasoline.
Li Yu nodded and said, "Use the sprayer to spray the largest pile of zombies. Remember to spray evenly."
Then he turned his head and looked at He Chao and others who were in the city.
Although the people who stayed in the city were in a relatively safe place these days, there were zombies less than 5 meters away from the wall.
Moreover, these zombies kept roaring all day long, making them feel that they were always in a pile of zombies.
The big iron gate would be hit by zombies from time to time, making a bang bang bang sound.
However, after so many days, they have adapted a lot.
Li Yu saw that there was no movement in the city, so he retracted his gaze and turned around to see that Da Pao and the others had already sprinkled gasoline.
He was looking forward to Li Yu giving orders.
Li Yu nodded and said, "When I light the fire later, you try to stand back. You don't have gasoline on you, right?"
Da Pao and the others shook their heads, with a hint of expectation in their eyes.
They also wanted to see how the zombies would burn them to death after this big barrel of gasoline went down.
Li Yu lit the torch he had just prepared in his hand. The torch was also soaked with gasoline. He watched the rain fall on the torch.
Not only did the torch not get wet, but the flames became even more vigorous.
Crackling.
Li Yu turned around and said to the two people: "Gasoline is much lighter than water, and fire will flow on water.
And when gasoline burns, the more water there is, the bigger the fire will be. Water is hydrogen and oxygen. Water cannot extinguish fire, but will only help the oil fire burn. If it is not handled properly, it may explode easily.
I will stay away later. You two should not go forward to watch. In addition, let the people around leave the wall quickly.
We just sprinkled so much gasoline. If it is not handled properly, it may burn our own people. Go quickly."
After speaking, he slowly stood on the wall.
He had used this method in his previous life, but he did not use it much in this life.
Soon, around the gate, people standing on the wall were warned to move away. They stood at the place closest to the inside of the wall.
Li Yu walked forward slowly, and a strong smell of gasoline came over.
These two losers have used up the whole bucket, right?
So, Li Yu threw the torch in his hand directly to the place where Da Pao and the other two had sprayed gasoline just now.
Boom!!!
In the zombie corpse that was more than two meters high, it suddenly burned.
And it spread at a very fast speed.
Puff puff puff ~
The flames were like an arrow, igniting madly in the zombie group.
Soon, all the zombies within a hundred meters around were burned.
Li Yu looked back at Da Pao and the other two. He didn't expect that the two could spray so many zombies.
These zombies, when they encounter fire, will catch fire.
Boom!
Under the wall, the place with the most zombies, because Da Pao and the other two sprayed the most gasoline, it was under heavy rain at this time.
Exploded!
The gasoline that exploded, sparks flew everywhere.
Some of them even exploded onto the wall, but they refused to go out. As long as the gasoline was not completely burned, the flame would not go out.
Under the wall, there was a sea of fire.
Zombies would not cry out in pain, or perhaps they did not know pain, they could only scream, but they also jumped around.
As these zombies ran around, the fire also grew as they ran around, and more zombies were burned.
In the explosion and the flames, the people in the city didn't know what happened until the air occasionally smelled some burning gasoline.
There was also a smell of burning corpses, which made people want to vomit.
On the wall.
Li Yu saw a zombie running towards the woods and thought it was not good.
He picked up a crossbow in his hand and shot at the zombie.
Puff!
The zombie with fire all over his body fell to the ground.
The flames on his body still did not go out and burned.
After burning for a while, everyone on the wall began to walk towards the wall.
As soon as they approached, a wave of hot air rushed towards them.
The fire reflected people's faces, making them warm, but the expressions on their faces were shocked.
Just now they all saw Li Hang and Da Pao carrying a large bucket of gasoline, but they didn't expect it to be so powerful.
This wave of fire killed at least thousands of zombies.
And this number is still increasing. Among these zombies running around randomly, the zombies are too close to each other, so many of them die.
Li Yu looked at the shocked eyes of the crowd and explained: "These zombies have all kinds of oils on their bodies, and there are many rotten substances inside their bodies. These things are extremely flammable."
Everyone nodded, and Li Yu smiled and said: "You can try this trick again in the future. Zombies have flammable substances on their bodies. This was discovered by Bai Jie and deserves praise."
In the crowd, Bai Jie was praised by Li Yu, and her eyes were full of joy.
In the previous life, although Li Yu knew that zombies were extremely easy to ignite, he didn't know the specific reasons, but now Bai Jie explained it clearly.
I hope Bai Jie can give him more surprises in the future.
Li Yu nodded at Bai Jie, and Bai Jie blinked secretly.
This fire has been burning for more than ten hours.
Even following the same pattern, they also used some of the higher places of zombie bodies in other places.
They all achieved good results, but the gasoline used was much less than the first time.
The heavy rain fell, fueling the flames.
The faces of everyone were illuminated in the sea of zombie fire.
Their eyes were full of hope.
And confidence.
The resistance against zombies for so long, fighting day and night, made them extremely tired.
This fire seemed to give them encouragement.
