Doomsday rat

Chapter 400 All People Are Soldiers
Hong Tao certainly didn't expect that Lin Na and Zhou Yuan could join forces to investigate him behind the scenes, and he didn't have time to think about these brain-consuming questions.The next morning, Schultz brought back bad news. He and Seebeck took off in Hong Tao's Falcon 7X and conducted visual reconnaissance in the south and east directions.

It turned out that Jinan's zombie army had passed the front line of Dezhou and was crossing the Majia River and continuing to advance north.Since jets can't fly at very low speeds, the numbers are hard to track.

But just based on their feelings, both of them said that the number of zombies was more than that seen besieging the Jinan camp the day before yesterday, and they were roughly divided into four parts, with an interval of more than ten kilometers.

Their observations were confirmed that afternoon. Seven convoys of survivors fleeing northward in a hurry crashed into the Fifth Ring Road and were caught by the Revival Alliance, which was building fortifications.

They themselves said they were from Dezhou and Wuqiao. Those two places were raided by zombies in the early morning. Fortunately, the people on duty at midnight were alert, otherwise none of the sleeping survivors could escape.

After Hong Tao learned of the situation, he ordered the field team to detain these 30 people without saying a word, and they were first assigned to the logistics department to help repair the fortifications, but their vehicles and supplies did not move at all.

Then send someone to tell them that those who are willing to stay can resist together, and those who don't want to stay can drive and continue running when the zombie army arrives.Oil, supplies, including light weapons and ammunition can be provided free of charge, even if it is paid.

"If similar situations happen again, we should deal with them accordingly, but don't disperse the temporary personnel too much, and try to concentrate them on one or two construction sites, so that they will have less contact with our people."

But in private, Hong Tao told the person in charge of the construction site a principle that panic and timidity are contagious diseases, which can be transmitted to each other through language and demeanor.The most important thing right now is not to mess up, otherwise it will be useless to have many supervising teams.

"Depending on the situation, the advancing speed of the zombies is a little slower than we expected, and there are at least two days to prepare." Randy, with a pair of panda eyes, did not forget to listen to the wall while working.

Like Hong Tao, he also stayed up all night. With the cooperation of the two helicopter pilots, he finally got a Robinson R44 light helicopter, and now he is installing thermal imaging equipment on it.

"If Jiao Si is still alive, I can keep them from entering the Sixth Ring Road for at least a week... Let's work, two days is not much time!" As soon as he talked about the zombie siege, Hong Tao felt depressed, and he wanted to put that The one surnamed Zhao was rescued again.

"Why don't you go and rest for a while..." Randy is also not very used to Hong Tao who has not said a few words for a long time. creepy.

Looking at Randy's panda eyes, Hong Tao really wanted to comment.Caucasians, especially white people with green eyes, if they stay up too late, their eye circles will turn red instead of black, and if they have a few strands of blond hair drooping, they will be like dead perverts in movies.

"One plane is not enough...the longer the delay in the sky, the greater the pressure on the ground. Let Schultz and the others stop flying, and go with me to Pinggu Airport to try our luck."

But looking at the small plane next to him, Hong Tao didn't feel sleepy or tired at all.The load capacity of this sightseeing helicopter is too small. Even if all the detachable parts are removed, it cannot carry too many weapons except for two pilots and a bombardier.And a plane is too unsafe, there must be a backup.

In fact, it is not difficult to find usable planes, but there are really not many usable helicopters.When Hong Tao was cleaning the airport, he didn't pay much attention to helicopters, because he couldn't drive them well.

It may be that most of the helicopters are relatively delicate. They have lost the necessary maintenance and maintenance. After being exposed to wind, rain, sun, and freezing for a year, most of them have malfunctioned.

There are a few fixed-wing aircraft that can still fly, and there are some in Xishan Airport, but jets cannot.At this time, the fast speed has become a disadvantage. You must find a slow speed, a long time in the air, a large load, and a good view.

In this way, only propeller planes are available, but they can't be too big, and they can't be too small.It's too big, like C130, one or two people can't play it at all.It is too small, such as a single-engine small aircraft, and the load capacity is too low. It is inefficient to go back and forth only to take off and land to replenish ammunition.

Time passed quickly in a hurry, and two days passed in the blink of an eye, and the army of zombies seemed to be calm and unhurried, advancing northward little by little according to the inherent speed, constantly attacking cities and pulling out villages along the way. Slowly approaching the defense line of the Revival Alliance.

The defense line of human survivors is also changing day by day. On the South Fifth Ring Road, from Nanyuan Airport in the west to Wufang Bridge in the east, more than a dozen major traffic intersections along the way are all blocked by vehicles. In order to prevent being pushed away by zombies, many vehicles All welded together.

A trench 3 meters deep and 4 meters wide was dug along the outside of the ring road, and it was filled with water.This is the result of more than 20 hook machines digging non-stop day and night for more than two days. Now the hook machines are still digging outside the third ring road. Even if the zombies come, they will still dig in the front after the battle. The third ring road has been dug. Then dig the second ring.

Don't be too slow, this is already the best result of multi-party cooperation.The three reservoirs of Guanting, Huairou, and Miyun have not stopped water for nearly four days, and finally turned the West Fourth Ring Road and the East Fifth Ring Road into Zeguo.

Even if some places were not completely submerged, the zombies would not choose to detour from the east and west sides.This greatly shortened the width of the frontal defense, otherwise even 20 hook machines would not be able to dig such a long trench.

Except that the excavation work is relatively slow, other preparations in the plan have all been in place.Every few hundred meters on the Fifth Ring Road, there are three or four self-propelled anti-aircraft guns, infantry fighting vehicles, tanks, ammunition vehicles, and oil tankers waiting.

For most of them, they may not have experienced a large-scale battle between humans and zombies. Although it sounds scary, it is difficult to completely scare away their courage, and they are even a little eager to try.

Of course, it's a different story after a real fight. For people who grew up in peacetime, war is not really terrible, and they often talk about it and look extremely heroic.

But when their fantasies are shattered by reality, they immediately become extremely frightened again, and would rather be killed than stay on the battlefield for one more minute.But this time, whether they want to or not, they must take up their guns and fight.

According to Zhou Yuan and Lin Na's arrangement, each firepower point will have a small group of military police.These people with white cloth belts on their arms will drive the tanks equipped with the firepower to participate in the battle, but most of their energy is focused on the comrades around them.

Whoever dares to retreat without authorization, whoever does not obey orders, this tank that is not effective in fighting zombies will become a machine for harvesting life.There is no warning, no consolation, and no need to ask anyone for instructions. You can shoot and shoot directly.

"Run one to kill one, run two to kill one pair, run to kill all, even if there is no firepower, the entire defense line collapses, and no one is allowed to leave alive. Those who do not want to go to the front line can now report to their respective captains Put it forward, I allow you to leave this city on your own..."

This is the pre-war mobilization that Hong Tao did. There is no logistics and no second line. Except for the communication center and the kindergarten, all the members of the alliance, from the elderly in their 70s and [-] years old, to the children in their teens, have all been in place. .

Those who know how to shoot and have reliable marksmanship are sitting behind a makeshift bunker with a gun, grenade and medicine roll; those who are more proficient in handling heavy weapons also drive self-propelled artillery, infantry fighting vehicles, and light and heavy machine guns The trucks are ready for battle.

Others stood by the ammunition cart a few hundred meters away, pressing bullets into the magazine and shells into the belt.Those who didn't even have the strength to do so took tape to tie four pieces of soap together, stuffed a fire rib tube in the middle, and carefully put them into a wooden box for later use.

There were several large trucks parked not far away, filled with larger wooden boxes.Some have been opened, and they are full of various gun barrels and gun barrels.Li Xiang and the backbone of the electromechanical team have already mounted the simple maintenance machine on one of the trucks, ready to repair and replace the front-line firearms and cannons at any time.

Every five kilometers, there will be such a logistics supply point to support the front-line combatants, but there are no medical staff in white clothes.

It's not that Hong Tao forgot. He also rushed the doctors and nurses from the medical department to the front line. Those who could hold guns took them, and those who couldn't carried ammunition.Fighting zombies does not require medical treatment at all. If you are injured, you will die. If you want to survive, you can only use bullets to block the zombies from approaching. If you want to die, don't do anything.
