Chapter 154: Octopus Ghost Spider
When Chen Ning returned to the place where the Black Legion was encamped, Kan Jing had already settled the entire legion in an orderly manner, hundreds of logistics personnel were busy cooking and tinkering with necessary supplies, and it was estimated that the smoke of cooking was rising in the entire Qingxiu City.
Even though it was night, countless pairs of green eyes quietly appeared around, these were hungry and crazy city citizens, obviously they were sensitive to the smell of cooking, and they all gathered around.
These people began to run out of food half a month ago, and most of them have not eaten for at least a week.
People will never survive a week without water to drink, but when there is water to drink and no food to eat, it depends on the resilience of each person's life, and some human beings can live for 40 days even if there is no food when there is enough water.
These people are already skinny one by one, and they are dying, but when they smell the smell of cooking, their eyes glow green.
Even, a large number of people have ignored the dissuasion and warnings of the sentries of the Black Legion, and are approaching the camp of the Black Legion step by step, obviously showing signs of attacking the barracks, after all, people who have been hungry for a week can do anything, let alone storm the barracks.
"What do they have to eat here?"
"Didn't you say that the defenders were also out of food, these liars!"
"Rush in and grab the food!"
Most of the townspeople did not speak, and the occasional shout from the crowd seemed to represent the voices of the hungry townspeople, and their footsteps continued to advance.
Chen Ning and Kan Jing came out with a group of lieutenants, and at the same time there were hundreds of Black Legion soldiers who came out, and Kan Jing saw the scene in front of him, frowned and said, "What's the matter with these people?"
Chen Ning had just returned to the barracks and taken a shower, but he hadn't had time to tell Kan Qin and them in detail about the situation in Qingxiu City, so Kan Jing didn't know that these people were here for food. Chen Ning lowered his voice and said: "The residents of Qingxiu City have been out of food one after another half a month ago, and the defenders have completely run out of food yesterday, these people are probably hungry and crazy, smelling the fragrance of our cooking here, they want to attack us here." ”
When Kan Jing and the others heard this, they suddenly felt like they were facing a great enemy, and the soldiers behind them also raised their bee stinging assault guns, and the muzzles of hundreds of black holes were aimed at the hungry people who were approaching step by step outside.
Chen Ning motioned to everyone not to act rashly, he took two steps forward, and said in a deep voice: "I am Chen Ning, the commander of the Black Legion, I came to rescue Qingxiu City on the order of the Grand Governor, I just arrived here tonight, my brothers just assisted your Qingxiu City defenders, kill the zombies, and now you haven't eaten, you are coming to attack the barracks?"
Chen Ning's words made those hungry residents stop one by one.
Some people are even starting to talk about it......
"It turns out that they are the rescue force that appeared at a critical moment tonight to help the emergency South Gate resolve the crisis. ”
"They turned out to be new reinforcements, no wonder they still have food. ”
"Brothers and sisters, we have been trapped for two and a half months, and there have been no reinforcements to rescue us, and this small unit is the only team that has passed through the war zone and come to our rescue. And they just came here, so we have saved us from a catastrophe tonight, even if we starve to death, we can't rob them of food!"
"But if we don't rob it, we're all going to starve to death!"
They only have more than 1,000 people, how much food can they have, and we have hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians in Qingxiu City, and we have robbed all the food of his troops, and we can't eat a bowl of full food. Even if we rob them of their food and can eat a full meal, but what about the next meal, tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, if the empire does not come to the rescue, our fate will be death after all. Since we are all going to die in the end, even their troops who came to our rescue will not escape in the end. Since everyone is going to die after all, why can't we people in Qingxiu City die with backbone? At least we can't chill Lieutenant Colonel Chen's hearts, and we can't let people in other places look down on our people in Qingxiu City after knowing the deeds of Qingxiu City, everyone says yes?"
Qingxiu City and Suzaku City, before the outbreak of the apocalyptic era, were called Liangguang, one Qingxiu City in the west and the other Suzaku City in the east.
But in the history of Vermilion Bird City, development has always crushed Qingxiu City, and the people in the jurisdiction of Vermilion Bird City have always looked down on the people in the jurisdiction of Qingxiu City, after all, there is a gap between the rich and the poor.
Later, the apocalyptic era came, the dynasty changed, and finally Liangguang was unified as a southern province, and the capital was Suzaku Castle.
Although the people of Qingxiu City are relatively poor, and their stature is generally not as tall and mighty as the people in the northern provinces, their temper and personality are very strong. In the eyes of the people here, power and money are not the first thing in their hearts, what they value most is dignity. It is often because of a few verbal insults, and then immediately escalates to the point of a bloody case.
Therefore, at this time, after hearing what someone said, the hungry people fell silent one by one, and no one took another half step, after all, they also agreed with this point of view, since they were going to die in the end, then why not die with dignity?
At last, the hungry people turned away silently, just as they had come at a low tide, and left as quickly and quietly as they had come.
Chen Ning looked at Kan Jing and the others, and Kan Jing lowered his voice and said, "These have been hungry for so long, everyone is skinny, but they still have such a high level of consciousness. ”
At this moment, Wei Min hurried over with a group of soldiers.
It turned out that Wei Min had received news that a large number of city residents were going to attack Chen Ning's military camp, and as soon as he heard this, he hurriedly came over.
But he didn't expect that when he came here, the city's citizens had already woken up and consciously retreated, he was greatly relieved, and also told Chen Ning a few words, hoping that Chen Ning could forgive these people's outrageous behavior.
Chen Ning said lightly that he understood, then turned to the adjutant Bull Demon King and said, "Take out half of our grain and give it to General Wei." ”
The Bull Demon King's face changed drastically: "Brother, we only have ten days of food, if we take out half of it......"
Chen Ning said in a deep voice: "Do as I tell you!"
"Yes!"
Chen Ning said to Wei Min: "General, we don't have much food, and taking out half of it is also a drop in the bucket for the soldiers and civilians of the entire Qingxiu City, you can watch and deal with it." ”
Wei Min nodded: "Thank you Lieutenant Colonel Chen Ning!"
Wei Min didn't say anything polite to Chen Ning, and asked his subordinates to take away a batch of grain that the Bull Demon King and they had brought out.
Chen Ning and Wei Min both understand that Qingxiu City is likely to not last long, and now everyone can't care about things that are so long, staying up for a day is a day, if Qingxiu City is breached, there will be eggs under the nest, which is also the reason why Chen Ning is not stingy to distribute general food to Wei Min, Wei Min is a spiritual pillar, he can't fall.
……
At this time, the Abomination Lord was also discussing with Ji Shuixian to re-attack Qingxiu City.
Although the Abomination Lord and Ji Shuixian are both level 10 zombies, even if everyone is a lord, their strength is also high, and the Abomination Lord thinks that he is not the opponent of this Ji Shuixian, so he is quite polite to Ji Shuixian: "Ji Shuixian, the Corpse Emperor asked you to reinforce me here, how many helpers did you bring here?"
Ji Shuixian said lightly: "I didn't bring any helpers, so I brought my hundred eight-clawed ghost spiders over." ”
The octopus-clawed ghost spider is also a zombie, but it does not belong to the common traditional zombies, this is a group of zombie subordinates that Ji Shuixian himself used zombie virus research and drumming. These octopusal spiders are huge, the size of a human armored vehicle, with six legs, two hands, razor-sharp fangs, and a human-like grimace on their backs, known as octopus.
Not only are these octopus spiders large, but they are also fast-moving, highly defensive, and immune to bullets. They walk on six legs and can use heavy weapons such as tomahawks with their hands, which is incredibly lethal. The combat power of each octopusal ghost spider is equivalent to a blade wolf ride.
The Abomination Lord said: "I also have more than a hundred blade wolf riders and more than sixty demon apostles here, there are hundreds of Titans, as for Frieza and countless low-level zombies, plus the hundred eight-clawed ghost spiders you brought with you, it should be able to deal with the three tenth-level generals in Qingxiu City." ”
Ji Shuixian said with a smile: "Then tomorrow, take Qingxiu City before sunset, you have dragged on here for too long, and the Corpse Emperor is already unhappy." ”
Abomination Lord: "Good!"
