Chapter 553: It's all on paper

"Let's listen to Mr. Yao continue, I want to hear Mr. Yao, an expert in the end of the world, on the different performances of civilians and the military in dealing with the zombie crisis after the outbreak of the zombie virus. Wang Qian did not respond to everyone's ridicule of him.

"I've always been interested in zombie games, movies, and TV, so after Mr. Wang raised this topic, I deliberately sorted out my thoughts in this regard. Yao Chengzhou said a few words modestly.

"You are not an expert, who else is an expert? If the zombie virus breaks out, Mr. Yao must be the last person to live. Others don't buy Mr. Yao's modesty much.

"Okay, then I'll continue with the topic I just talked about. As I mentioned earlier, the most difficult thing for civilians is to execute the wounded immediately, so among civilians, especially in densely populated large cities, zombies are bound to go viral and quickly kill most of the civilians, converting some of them. Due to the collapse of the modern life order, the survivors will face the threat of supplies, diseases, and sudden accidents and have to leave their own relatively safe shelters, which causes secondary casualties after the collapse. ”

"In many works that describe the post-collapse world, we will find some survivor camps formed by civilians, generally set up in locations that are difficult for a large number of zombies to access, with fortifications and armaments, a stable supply of water and food, a strict management system for outsiders, and no acceptance of foreign survivors or an isolation and observation system, this kind of camp can exist for a long time in the last days, unless it is crushed by the crossing of a million-level zombie army. ”

"In terms of regular armies, we don't discuss strategic-level weapons, because for one city and one place, even if a strategic nuclear bomb destroys the zombie cluster, the human race itself cannot afford such a price. Because of its organization and armament, the probability of surviving the zombie crisis is very high, including high-level government departments that will be prioritized by the army. ”

"Even if the frontal battlefield is lost, it is very feasible for the army to move to military bases, nuclear fortifications, and ocean-going fleets with sufficient supplies and tight protection, and hold on until five or six years later, when the zombies disintegrate and return to the mainland. ”

"But the aforementioned advantage is based on the premise of abandoning the protection of civilians, and if the military chooses to save civilians, it will be much more difficult." Military forts are not capable of containing most civilians on their own, so the protection of civilians is generally to resist on the spot in populated areas or at established assembly points. ”

"In terms of tactical defense, if the army does not get early warning, it is too late to fully equip the special combat equipment against zombies, and the first problem of the army is that the weapons in their hands are against the living rather than the zombies. Even if kinetic ammunition can tear the body of a zombie apart, it does not reduce its harmfulness, and accurate headshots at a distance of several hundred meters are not an ability that most modern soldiers do not have, because they do not pursue this aspect in tactical training. ”

"The impact of fragmentation weapons on zombies is negligible...... The setting of the zombie is that as long as the brain is not completely destroyed, the injury to the body will not cause its death, will not bleed, will not pain, will not lose combat effectiveness due to the loss of important organs, and now the fragmentation explosion weapon of the anti-personnel will not affect its harmfulness even if the zombie is beaten into a sieve, so there is no effect on human beings like a grenade with a radius of tens of meters without a living thing, but only a zombie that can knock down the explosion near the point, some of them may still get up, and the efficiency is very low。 ”

"Flamethrowers and incendiary grenades are perfect weapons, but the former is not universally equipped, and the latter brings up the second problem of the army's frontal zombie army: fire sustaining and replenishment. ”

"Whether it is a barrage to smash zombies or incendiary bombs to wash the ground, it is necessary to consume a lot of ammunition, but it will take time to reload after consumption, and at the same time, the ammunition on the battlefield needs to be constantly replenished, which creates an inevitable firepower vacuum, so as long as there are enough zombies, it is only a matter of time before they pile up the defense line. ”

"At the same time as the ammunition vacuum problem, the physical strength of the soldiers is also being consumed at a high speed, the zombie army is tireless and will not be afraid, it may be that a battle requires the front-line soldiers to fight non-stop for several days and nights, and whether the soldiers still have the physical strength to hold the line of defense in the later stage of the battle has become a problem. ”

"The greater the number of civilians to be protected, the larger the combat area, the greater the pressure on ammunition replenishment and personnel fatigue. China has a population of 1.4 billion and an army of about 2.5 million, while Mi has a population of 300 million and a local army of about 500,000. Even if there is a temporary mobilization, because the war situation is directly within the core of the country, the mobilization capacity will be greatly reduced...... Because the reservists you have called up may already be on their way to fleeing for their lives. ”

"In the face of the zombie crisis, if the national organization still has the ability to mobilize the reserves, it generally means that the zombie crisis is still in the initial stage of development, manifested as an ordinary public security incident, the situation is controllable and does not need to be mobilized. ”

"With this military-civilian ratio, the army has to shrink its line of defense and abandon a large part of the civilian population. The army also does not have enough manpower to deal with the large number of wounded and non-infected civilians, and the greater the number of civilians, the more serious the danger. The end result was that the army was largely preserved and the civilian casualties were heavy. ”

"And a large part of these casualties of civilians will be replenished to the zombie army. ”

"To sum up, according to most of the zombie settings in movies, television, games, and movies, the result of the outbreak of Resident Evil is that civilian society is largely destroyed, while armed groups are preserved to the greatest extent and return to the world after the war to begin rebuilding work. ”

"That's what I think about civilians and the military in the face of a post-apocalyptic crisis caused by zombies. Yao Chengzhou ended his story.

"Teacher Xu, you seem to have something to say?" Wang Qian stretched out his hand to signal to Xu Jichao.

"Actually, most of my views are very different from Mr. Yao's. Xu Jichao smiled.

"It's normal to be different! It's not normal to be the same, I just said nonsense, Mr. Xu, you can say anything you think, this is just a symposium." Yao Chengzhou said a few words to Xu Jichao.

"I think it's okay, the force value of the zombies themselves is very average, most of the zombies in movies, TV, and movies are slow, and a small number of zombies do not exceed the limit of human physical strength even if they are agile. ”

"Theoretically, a sealed piece of steel armor can make zombies helpless. You must know that human teeth are not good at biting, and simple steel armor is not difficult to build, and it can be mass-produced and installed with a few mouse clicks. ”

"Unless the outbreak to the end of the world is a simultaneous outbreak in all cities around the world, large and small, and the duration is only a few days, you can safely experience the real-life version of the zombie elimination mini-game by wearing a closed armor and holding an axe or something. ”

"Large-scale corpse tides always seem invincible in movies, television, and games, but in fact, this large-scale corpse tide lacks strategic planning and tactical coordination, and is not at all an opponent of a formed army. The armies in movies, TV, and games are all using small arms to face zombies, which can only be said to be purely for the needs of the plot, in order to look better and more exciting. ”

"When the army in reality really encountered such a situation, it was not stupid enough to casually lead a large-scale corpse tide to a certain flat ground and gather it, and then the large-caliber artillery exploded to ashes. No matter how bad it is, there is no problem with a row of tanks running over it. ”

"The easier way is to bury it alive, isn't there a lot of underground fortifications now, underground airfields or something, directly use a few living people to attract a large number of zombies into the underground fortifications, wait until the hole is full, and then the two ends of the hole will be blown up and filled, and it will be done in an instant. ”

"So I think that one day in the world caused by zombies, the main thing is not how high the attack power of the zombies themselves is, but the super high transmission rate and conversion rate of the zombie virus. and the cannibalism between humans in the struggle for survival resources after the collapse of the social order. ”

"When it comes to the characteristics of this zombie virus, there is really no such virus at present, and the infectious bacteria known to us in human society are often opposite in terms of transmission range and fatality rate. ”

"If a virus has a high lethality rate, it is not widely transmitted because the host that is the vector of the virus dies too quickly to infect too many people, such as a virulent virus like Ebola. ”

"If the infection is widespread, the fatality rate is definitely not high, such as cold viruses. Therefore, the key to dealing with the virus is to find antibodies, due to the differences in the human body, large-scale infection will definitely appear immunized, and immunized people can make immune serum. ”

"The second is to block the route of infection, and Europe relied on clean water, exterminating rats, and isolating patients to eradicate the Black Death. But the zombie virus in movies, TV, and movies is different, and the bull fork of the zombie virus is that it is contagious quickly, has a high transformation, and has no cure, which is actually not realistic. ”

"I just argued with Mr. Yao about the problem of uninhabitable cities after the zombie outbreak, and after thinking about it, I feel that Mr. Yao is indeed very reasonable, the spread of this virus in densely populated areas is unstoppable, on the other hand, the ecosystem of big cities is indeed beyond imagination, completely dependent on the surrounding areas for sustenance. ”

"Clogged sewers can make cities uninhabitable, and once zombies break out, blocking the delivery of food and water, coupled with power and gas outages, the existing food and water will run out quickly, and within three days, the rest of the people will have to start killing each other for food. At that time, the living are more dangerous than zombies. ”

"Most of the living people are probably killed by the living, so I said, movies, TV, do overestimate the power of zombies, maybe in the city the zombie virus will be quickly contagious, forming a dead city, but after leaving the densely populated area, there is no rapid way to infect, the virus is difficult to spread quickly, because not all people live in the city. ”

"From a global perspective, most people still live in the vast countryside, so the transmission route set by zombie movies is actually not very scientific. In view of the fact that not everyone lives in the city, most of the rural areas, mountainous areas, desert areas, islands, and sparsely populated areas are not only difficult to transport, but also difficult to meet the density of the infected population, and can be completely closed and self-sufficient, and it is difficult to infect a large area. ”

"For example, every time I go back to my hometown, it takes more than ten hours to take the car, high-speed rail plus long-distance bus and short-distance bus, and finally walk on my feet. I'll just quietly see if the zombies don't take the car, only walk with their feet, and when and what month will they be able to walk to my hometown. ”

"In addition, not all areas are connected to airplanes, like Asian, African and Latin American countries, like African tribes, not to mention airplanes, not even many trucks, relying on human bites alone to infect, maybe zombies on the road are rotten toes and have not yet reached the place where there are people!"

"Therefore, if there is a real outbreak of the zombie virus, at most at the beginning, the city residents will be exterminated, and then the armed forces will withdraw from the city when there is no hope of resistance, and the vast and sparsely populated rural areas will be difficult to spread the virus on a large scale because of the inconvenient transportation, and then they will form a military fortress dotted with troops stationed in the army. ”

"After installing various anti-tearing armor or developing vaccines, and digging a big pit, take the initiative to lure the zombie army in the city to the predetermined area, and then burn it, bombard it, bury it alive, in short, all kinds of zombie legions that are so easy to explode and crush the brainless zombie army. Xu Jichao ended his story.

"I heard Mr. Yao talk about zombies just now, and I thought zombies were terrible, but now when I hear Mr. Xu say this, I feel that there is nothing terrible. Zhang Mengdi expressed her opinion.

"Zombies are not terrible, what is the real situation, I think practice is the only criterion for testing the truth, what is said here is all on paper, whether Mr. Xu is right, or Mr. Yao is right, or wait until the zombie crisis breaks out to know. However, if Mr. Wang is interested, we can cooperate in filming a zombie movie, and when the time comes, Mr. Yao and Mr. Xu will be invited to do technical guidance. Liu Xiaomei also opened her mouth.

Just when everyone was speaking enthusiastically, a staff member who was responsible for delivering tea suddenly rushed into the venue with a black face and a mouth full of blood, she was drooling, and her eyes were staring at all the guests in the venue like hungry wolves, as if looking for a target to attack.

"Who gave this makeup, it's too similar, right?" Xu Jichao praised.

"This look and body movements are also very professional, very much like a real zombie. Yao Chengzhou also nodded.
