#144 - Chapter 144: Dispatching in Batches
Brother Chen stood beside the wall.
The Wan City Shelter had erected many scaffolds near the inner side of the wall to fight against zombies, allowing people to climb up and push down zombies scaling the wall.
Today's daylight had ended, and the sky was completely dark.
It was time for their night watch team to work again.
The shelter had somehow found some storage batteries and generators and strung some energy-saving LED light strips on the wall, illuminating the area not far ahead so that the night watchmen didn't have to fumble around in the dark.
Brother Chen stood on the scaffold and glanced outside the wall.
It was still early in the night, and the zombies hadn't yet gathered under the wall.
Without them piling up, there was more freedom.
If interested, one could use a long stick to poke the zombies' heads, but the chance of killing them this way was small.
These 7-meter-long iron rods were rare, and only a few people in the night watch team had them. They were found from somewhere and sharpened at one end to kill zombies.
Most of the night watch team only had 2-3 meter long iron rods sharpened at one end, and they could only kill zombies when they climbed higher.
Brother Chen didn't have this kind of long weapon.
With nothing to do, he squatted down, using the wall's height above the scaffold to shield himself from the cold night wind.
He rubbed his slightly red hands and then exhaled forcefully.
Feeling the stiffness in his fingers relieved a little, he hid his hands back in his sleeves to keep warm.
This damn weather.
He couldn't remember the last time he felt this cold.
It seemed like it was when he returned to his hometown for the New Year several years ago.
It snowed in his hometown then.
He didn't expect it to freeze below zero here in the south.
Life is really hard.
This damn apocalypse.
"Everyone, get ready, there are more zombies outside, time to work!"
At this time, a loud voice rang out next to him, it was their captain.
Although everyone knew that the sound would attract zombies, the "smell of meat" in the shelter was so strong that it didn't matter. Anyway, they all wanted to come in and eat meat.
"Let's work, let's work."
The veterans of the night watch team also echoed, picking up their long weapons and starting to resist the approaching zombies.
Brother Chen stopped hiding, stood up, and looked at the already familiar situation under the wall.
He saw individual bodies intertwined, pushing and stepping on each other, constantly emitting ear-piercing roars towards the night watchmen on the wall.
Even though he had seen it many times recently, his pupils still contracted and his hairs stood on end every time he saw this scene.
Who would have thought that people like himself would turn into these monsters.
Brother Chen didn't sigh for too long and picked up the iron rod next to him.
The coldness on it felt "scalding" the moment he touched it.
The heat that his hands had accumulated with great difficulty was quickly absorbed.
Ignoring this, he aimed at a zombie with a torn chin and thrust the iron rod down with force!
The night watch work had officially begun again.
The night in the apocalypse.
Either there are few people, so you can hide in buildings to avoid zombies, and if the location is good, you can even get a good night's sleep.
Or you can hide far enough away that there are few zombies, but you don't know how long this good life can last.
If there are many people, you can only rely on the terrain to carefully resist the zombies' attacks.
Like Wan City Shelter, Yang City Shelter, or Guo Chunrui's smaller shelters.
People everywhere are surviving in their own ways.
There are still many nights in the apocalypse.
————————————————
The next day.
6:30 AM.
The sky wasn't completely bright yet.
It seemed to be a cloudy day.
Inside the gate of the Green Source Base.
A huge convoy had already gathered here!
Sabertooths, modified explosion-proof vehicles, armored vehicles, military heavy trucks, tankers, and transport flatbeds!
A full twenty vehicles!
Qin Jin stood in the open space, looked at the personnel who were ready, and looked around, there were 36 people!
Zhang Tiankai from the combat team and another team member were still injured. Even though Zhang Tiankai repeatedly requested, Qin Jin still did not agree to him participating in this operation and let them stay in the base to recuperate.
The people added this time were selected from the defense team, with 8 people supplementing them.
Now the base has obtained a variety of heavy weapons, and many have been deployed on the gate and walls.
Relying on the walls and terrain, as long as there are no enemies with heavy weapons, ordinary people are not a threat.
No matter how many people come, it's useless.
Under absolute firepower, human lives will only become a cold number.
Even if there are enemies with heavy weapons, they will be dumbfounded when they see the Green Source Base's walls, not to mention that there are helicopters in the base, possessing air supremacy.
The defense personnel have also trained two people who have helicopter piloting skills, and they will continue to increase the number of training personnel in the future.
Seeing that the sky was almost right, Qin Jin had the gate opened.
All the vehicles drove out of the base in order and soon left under the gaze of Qin's father and other managers.
They still chose to take the highway to Yang City this time.
The modification and upgrade of the vehicles were very good. On the national highway, according to the usual situation, some zombies should have been attracted long ago.
But this time it only happened once!
It was possible that this zombie was originally staying by the door of a building and was attracted by the sound.
The zombies deeper inside basically couldn't hear the sound of the noise-reduced heavy trucks!
The effect was excellent!
But no one was happy about this.
Because everyone knew what they were going out to do today.
Eliminate the enemy!
Still hundreds of people!
How to deal with dozens of people against hundreds of people?
Even though the boss, Qin Jin, had already told them the method.
They were still nervous.
That was a force many times greater than their own base.
Everyone also knew what happened.
The people from their base killed the daughter of the leader of the other base.
The hatred of killing a daughter!
Can this kind of hatred be let go!?
No one knew whether the other party could let it go.
Nor did anyone know how to resolve this contradiction between the two sides.
The method the boss told them was very simple.
Since you don't know how to resolve it.
Then solve the person who caused the hatred.
All of them.
He didn't know if the leader of that base had any other relatives and important people.
Killing a leader alone is simple.
But it's not safe.
Then use the safest method.
No one objected to Qin Zong's method, even if they felt reluctant, they also knew that this was the best way.
After the convoy got on the highway, the speed increased to 80-90 mph.
They had run this highway several times, and even just the day before yesterday they had dragged military supplies home.
They were very familiar with the road conditions.
According to the address spat out by Fang Tianqing, it was about 280 kilometers away from the Green Source Base, much closer than going to Zhu City.
Including the dozen or so kilometers of national highway to run after getting off the highway in Yang City.
Qin Jin estimated that he would arrive between 10:30 and 11:00!
Inside the Green Source Base.
A majestic armed helicopter was already parked at the take-off and landing position.
There were several figures next to it checking and waiting for something.
One of them was Sun Xiaolong!
He didn't go with the convoy!
Qin Zong told him to keep an eye on the time and set off for that shelter in Yang City at 9:50!
Act in batches!
This time, air power will be deployed!
