Chapter 27: Change or Decline

"The minister's new study has arrived. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info" The secretary pushed the door and entered, and what he saw was Shi Mingqiang, rubbing his temples and his body sunk deep in the leather seat.

"Bring it to me, there's nothing more important at the moment." Shi Mingqiang cheered up and took the report and couldn't wait to read it.

The secretary stood in the office and looked around, this office was originally a room for the leaders of the mining area to receive VIPs, and it was extremely luxuriously decorated, with portraits of nude men and women in European style on the walls, large chandeliers with luxurious Roskey crystals hanging from the ceiling, and tables and chairs all made of mahogany. Now that the room has been taken over by their department, it has been greatly transformed into an operational intelligence center, with nude oil paintings replaced with real-time monitoring screens, and elegant European-style tables and chairs replaced with cold computers.

Every day, people come in and out of this room, constantly aggregating information from all over the world. Even late at night, the lights never go out.

Taking a deep puff of his cigarette, Shi Mingqiang pressed the cigarette butt into the ashtray that was piled up like a hill and stood up: "Hasn't there been any good news in the past few days, this report... This report was immediately distributed to all security units, and at the same time, we have to assist the daily management department of the camp to make a record of every survivor." If, as the report says, a large part of the survivors will become like those cannibals after being injured by zombies, then the camp is like a powder keg, which could explode at any moment! ”

"Yes, I'll do it right away." The secretary realized the seriousness of the matter as soon as he saw the report.

Flipping through the report again, the words in it were imprinted into Shi Mingqiang's head like a soldering iron: the cell structure of X cells is different from that of all existing organisms on Earth, and after they entered the host, the structure has changed so far, so that when the host comes into contact with the survivor's body wounds, the special alienated tissue in the X cells will immediately start to invade the new host, And complete the complete destruction of the host's original body tissues and organs and the reorganization with their own characteristics within tens of minutes・・・・・・ there are also a small number of individuals in animals will be sent by X cells, but the changes in animals are not the same as humans・・・・・・ and there is no case where plants are affected by X cells・・・・・・

"Send a copy of the information we get to all the points that can be contacted, and do our part." Shi Mingqiang reminded the secretary who turned around to leave.

When noon came, he didn't have much of the heart to eat, only asked the guards to deliver a box of meals to the office, these days the cafeteria is too "lively", as soon as you enter, there are some survivors noisy, and the soldiers are constantly arguing over the distribution of food.

"Brother Shi, don't you know that the cafeteria is lively today, the group of survivors are arguing that we discriminate against them and not give them meat, and there is a leader in the fight today, which is called a chicken flying dog jumping. As a result, the management did not severely punish those troublemakers, but only persuaded them to do the same. The guard Wang Sitong seemed to be still watching the farce, and his expression was extremely exciting. Strictly speaking, he is not Shi Mingqiang's guard, he was also a member of the Thunder Special Service Team under the Operations Department of the Military Intelligence Department, and Shi Mingqiang and Ye Quan are all members of the same group.

After the outbreak of the catastrophe, he temporarily served as Shi Mingqiang's guard and assistant, so the tone of speech between him and Shi Mingqiang was not as blunt as that of outsiders.

"The management of the camp must be standardized, and those survivors can't be the masters, but this troubled water ship can't be mixed with us, just let the management department do it, what are you idle boy."

"Brother Shi, you are wrong, now there are more than 100,000 people in the entire camp, and there are only 30,000 or 40,000 people who are really us, and the rest are ordinary people who have followed all the way, and they all know the situation of the fall of the country, and we now have no deterrent effect in their opinion, and secretly I have received a lot of news, and many people are a little impatient."

"When the is this, there are still people thinking about this, you tell me the specific situation." Shi Mingqiang began to pay attention to the situation inside the camp through Wang Sitong's words.

"There are a lot of survivor gangs in the camp now, and they are asking us to give them weapons, to allow them to come and go freely in the camp, and some of them are hooking up with our insiders to steal our strategic supplies, and now there is no time to take care of them." Wang Sitong said.

"It's only been a few days, can't we still guess what they want to do, but they just want to take this opportunity to make a fortune in the country, or to occupy the mountain, when is the damn thing, survival is the most important thing now, these guys don't understand how cruel the outside world is." Shi Mingqiang slapped the table angrily.

"What I mean now is that we have to not only guard against the outside, but also take measures from the inside, to unite them so that they can truly be who we are. Of course, it is necessary to be ruthless when it comes to thunderous measures. Wang Sitong believes that the current guardians should indeed change some ideas at this time, and cannot expect these hundreds of thousands of people to honestly meet the safety brought to them by the guardians. Or use them together and become a whole. After all, they are not the only forces in the camp, maybe others have seen the hidden power of these people, even if the outside affairs are important, but the stability of the camp must also be guaranteed.

"I also know this, but we can't control this, let's set up an internal monitoring channel first, this should not be too difficult for us to do, and keep an eye on the wind and grass in the camp at any time." Shi Mingqiang thought about it for a while and said.

Wang Sitong is not good to talk about, he can only discuss the establishment and planning of internal supervision with Shi Mingqiang, he is actually very worried that he will continue to follow the current laissez-faire thinking, but he is afraid that the camp will be unstable, because the guardian is currently in an awkward position, he is not the guardian saint here, but he has no ability to restore orthodoxy, and nominally he is subject to some jurisdiction of the management office composed of non-governmental people, but even Shi Mingqiang is unwilling to join him, and he is even less capable of participating in the decision-making of the upper level.

While the two were discussing in the office, the air raid sirens went off. The soldiers in the camp ran out of the building and assembled in a square that had just been leveled after hearing the alarm. The people of the entire camp curiously put down what they were doing and looked around. This alarm was arranged at the beginning of Baiyun Obo, in order to prevent the invasion of mutant monsters, but generally when encountering a lone zombie or mutant monster on the grassland, it will not make such a big move.

Some ordinary people began to be inexplicably nervous, and this atmosphere reminded them of the time when they fled the capital, the deafening artillery fire, the splashing of flesh and blood, the tide of zombies, and those hellish scenes were coming again.

"Let's go out and have a look, it's been a long time, and there's nothing to do here." Shi Mingqiang lived in a Type 95 assault rifle and dragged Wang Heitong to rush out.

In the assembled square, the officer shouted with a loudspeaker: "The small unmanned reconnaissance aircraft in front have detected a group of mutant animals, and thousands of them are rushing towards the camp, and the entire A Division has entered the eastern defensive position, ready to meet the enemy!" Other units defended defensive positions beyond the east. Until the crisis is resolved, everyone is allowed to stay where they are and not leave without permission! ”

Soon, trucks were transporting soldiers in the direction of the enemy's attack. Helicopter gunships, armored vehicles also drove out from all over the camp and headed for predetermined positions. The onlookers at the base didn't understand why the military was so nervous with just a few thousand animals.

Shi Mingqiang understands this very well, he has seen the mutant steppe rat that attacked him with his own eyes, and he knows that these guys are very difficult to entangle. It's just that these ordinary people, who more or less withdrew from Beijing under the protection of the military, and did not face the difficult survival after the catastrophe, so they still have a lot of luck thoughts.

Shi Mingqiang and Wang Sitong got on a paratrooper assault car and arrived at the defensive position first. Taking out the binoculars, you can see that it is just four or five miles away, dusty, a large group of monsters with a golden metallic color, and a body length of nearly three meters appear in the line of sight, after adjusting the focus, Shi Mingqiang can see more clearly, the top of these monsters is full of sharp horns, and there are at least four or five. After careful observation, he determined that this was a yellow sheep, a yellow sheep on the grassland.

"Yellow sheep?" Wang Sitong took the telescope suspiciously, and when he saw the scene in the distance, he smacked his lips: "Yellow sheep generally don't move in this latitude in summer, let alone now it seems that they are going to attack us collectively." ”

"Anyway, let's take a look first. Can they be broken up with a counterattack?" Shi Mingqiang is still very confident in the modern army.

The gunners on the position have already begun to prepare, "mortar preparation, 3000 meters, 2500 meters, open fire!" "Yellow sheep itself is a good running animal, the maximum speed can reach nearly 90 kilometers per hour, not to mention after the mutation, that speed is simply difficult to explain, if it is not for the terrain restrictions of the grassland, and there are many ways to break the front hooves if they run too fast, their speed has already exceeded 200 kilometers per hour.

Of course, the crowd that ran out of the camp to watch the battle behind the position was surprised, in their eyes, the burst of yellow dust was originally on the left and right of the horizon, who knew that it didn't take much effort to come to a very close position. The pitch-black sharp horns of thousands of mutant yellow sheep are like a forest of knives and halberds in the dazzling sunlight of the plateau, refracting dazzling light, which is terrifying.

With the sound of the cannon,A small number of remote-controlled semi-intelligent sentinel machine guns laid at a distance of about 2000 meters also began to fire,This is the result of scientific research in recent years,With a certain automatic identification function,It may not be practical on the battlefield and is susceptible to various interferences,The recognition function is not very sensitive to people,But now after modifying the data, they have become very suitable for the monster's body attributes that are different from humans,Unfortunately, it was not intended to be installed,The number is very limited。

12。 The 7-mm shore defense heavy machine gun began to spit out tongues of fire, and even from a kilometer away, bullets could be seen flying out of the muzzle like a ball of flame.

The battle unfolded, and despite the terrifying appearance of the Yellow Sheep, the people still believed in their army, with modern weapons and powerful heavy firepower, no matter what kind of creatures on Earth would not be a match for human technology after all. And the yellow sheep used to be a docile national protected animal, and today they have sharpened their teeth to charge humans, which means that from now on mutant animals and humans are completely opposed, and they are mortal enemies of humans like zombies.

On this grassland, on a sunny afternoon, the world's first population collision between humans and mutant beasts took place, and no one expected that this casual confrontation would leave so many marks on the future. The higher-ups of the camp did not pay much attention to the matter, and the soldiers were only mobilized to increase their vigilance and show their muscles to the people in the camp, who thought that the afternoon would be spent after a bustle of all afternoons, in a state of unaccustomed to the grassland.
