Chapter 171: Zhou Beichen's Wish
After five days and five nights of fierce fighting, the southern suburbs base was finally successfully defended. ↑Sanjiang Pavilion,
On Fuhua Road in front of the base gate, every inch of the ground was covered with blackened blood and traces of fire, and the last few charred cars were still billowing smoke. The zombie corpses were stacked almost half a meter thick in the circle closest to the base, and it took two rescue teams more than an hour to clean up the battlefield.
Regiment Commander Chen walked out of the base as soon as the battle ended and expressed his gratitude to the heads of the two rescue teams. As the three teams led by Qin Qin, Zhang Hao and Zhang Ming, who never left the base, took the initiative to help the base ask for help and had outstanding performance in the battle, they were also sincerely thanked by Commander Chen.
Qin Qin, who had only seen Commander Chen once a few months ago, had barely recognized the supreme commander of the base, his original resolute face had turned into haggard, and his thick eyebrows and big eyes had turned into a pair of tired eyes covered with big dark circles and bloodshots. His hair stood on end greasy, his face was covered with blood, and his clothes were crumpled and crumpled, and he could see that he hadn't rested in days.
"I won't say more polite words, from now on the southern suburbs base will be your most loyal ally. If you need help, feel free to contact us, I guarantee in my name, the southern suburbs base will be on call. We're in a mess here right now, so I won't be polite to you, and after collecting the crystal nucleus, the team leaders should also take the team back to rest as soon as possible, and the promised materials will be sent over tomorrow to ensure that they will not be treated badly. Head Chen patted the shoulders of the two responsible persons vigorously and said to the two rescue teams with a solemn face.
Qin Qin stepped into the gate of the base with emotion, and did not return in just five days, but what greeted him was no longer the familiar scene of the past. Since the entire battle was largely kept outside the base, the environment inside the base was largely not badly damaged. Except for the main entrance and a few gaps, which were covered with blood and corpses like the gates, only scattered remnants of the battle could be seen.
It's just that the atmosphere of sadness and depression that pervades the base can't be ignored. The bodies of the victims were hastily placed on the side of the road, surrounded by grieving family members and friends. Injuries of varying severity surrounded the medical station, and the sound of moans and cries of pain was uncomfortable.
As a squad that only returned to the base after the battle, the three teams received a variety of emotional stares, from envy to jealousy, and some even with a hint of hatred. The ordinary residents of the base did not know the contribution of the three teams to the base, nor did they know that they had been fighting bloodily in the past few days of fighting, and had never flinched.
In their view, it was their own group that worked hard to hold the base, and many relatives and friends around them even lost their lives as a result. And these people were very lucky to avoid this battle, but they returned to the base with a cheeky face as soon as the battle ended, which is really disgraceful.
In the midst of the many chaotic sights, the three teams could only walk briskly back to the apartment. Although they think they have a clear conscience, in the face of so many pairs of questioning eyes, they can't run forward one by one to explain that they are not deserters. And to be honest, the casualty rate of people trapped in the base is indeed quite high, especially the squads that were sent to guard the gate and a few gaps, and almost every team had a lot of dead and wounded.
With all kinds of complicated emotions, the three teams spent a sleepless night, and Zhou Beichen and Qin Qin also officially proposed to their teammates at breakfast the next day that they wanted to go to the capital base.
"To the capital base? It's so far from the capital, why? Dou Le was the first to raise his doubts.
"If you are worried that staying at the southern suburbs base will be misunderstood, then just let the base management post a statement, we don't need to leave for this." Lin Ziyao's head had always turned quickly, and he had felt that disturbing atmosphere as early as yesterday when he entered the base, so he immediately thought about it.
"It has nothing to do with that misunderstanding, I suggested leaving here a long time ago. It wasn't long after I arrived at the base when I overheard the capital base's external announcements while fiddling with the radio. In the broadcast, they briefly explained the key things to pay attention to when dealing with zombies, as well as the location of several large bases in the country. But the radio passed quickly, and I didn't have time to call anyone else to listen to it, and I couldn't find it again. Zhou Beichen pretended to sigh regretfully.
"Unlike the southern suburbs base, which is only built in a small community, the capital base directly occupies a satellite city near the original capital city. Although it was a small town before the end of the world, it is now the largest city in the country. I suggest that everyone go and live there, on the one hand, because the level of security there is much higher than here, and at least there will be no situation where you will not be able to deal with the zombie siege due to the lack of troops. On the other hand, it is also because it was once the capital, the political center of the country, and one of the most economically and culturally developed cities. If social reconstruction is to be carried out in the future, the capital will also be the first city to rise. And our team, it can basically be said that we don't have to worry about eating and drinking now, but if we want a better life and want to live a normal life like before the end of the world, going to the capital base is also an inevitable choice. Zhou Beichen continued to analyze seriously.
Zhou Beichen's words made everyone in the team fall silent, as he said, the capital base may indeed be many times stronger than the southern suburbs base. But getting to the base of the capital is not as easy as it was before the end of the world, and it is now a three- or five-day drive that used to take six or seven hours, and you have to hope that there will not be too many dangers on the road. In the event of an accident, a delay of more than 10 days and half a month is light, and the most frightening thing is the possible casualties.
Seeing that everyone was silent, Zhou Beichen and Qin Qin glanced at each other, and Qin Qin smiled at Zhou Beichen comfortingly. Both of them understood that if they didn't want to live a boring life of fighting zombies and searching for supplies every day like this in a few years, then going to the capital base was the only option.
Although in the last life, Zhou Beichen's memory appeared at the end of a large spaceship shrouded in the sky over the capital base, he would never stop because of the fear in his heart, hiding in a small remote base and surviving. He is determined to go to the capital base again like in the previous life, but unlike the previous life, this time he will fight side by side with Qin Qin, trying to make himself and the team stronger, strong enough to stand out in the capital base, strong enough to know many unknown secrets, and even finally obtain some of the advice and decision-making power of the capital base. You must know that the capital base will implement a parliamentary system in the future, and the captains of the powerful mercenary teams are qualified to become councilors. Only then can he use the memories of his previous life to better help his country complete the reconstruction, so that everyone can be confident and prepared to deal with those spaceships that will appear sooner or later.
This is his greatest wish in this life except to stay with Qin Qin for the rest of his life. Baidu search "Sanjiang Pavilion" to see the latest and most complete!
