117 departure
The patrol team of the base needs to be included in the establishment, and only those with a certain number of points can meet the needs of the team leader, and this time, perhaps because of the addition of a new group of survivors, and the Gu family's convoy, the scale is far larger than the previous patrol scale, and a group of people in clusters occupy near the exit of the base, but that's all.
Although there are many survivors who have joined the patrol in order to get more supplies, however, the team that is temporarily combined in this way can be just a rabble, and even the tools that can be used are the survivors used before, and before that, the survivors who can serve this mission have already signed a life and death contract, but whether they can come back alive or not, they can get a certain number of points in exchange for supplies, and there are many survivors who are desperate to fight to the death are also doing this.
No, in fact, the last time Su Xiaobai saw the food provided by the E layer is already the best, not so two or three days later, there is basically only such a porridge, no, it is more appropriate to say that it is rice water, or there are not many meters of rice water, in this case, it is impossible to survive at all by relying on the base alone, the survivors on the E layer, not occasionally the survivors of other layers help occasionally, the mortality rate will be even higher, but these mortality rates are concealed by the base.
Not only the E layer, but even the situation of the other layers is not much better, and the survivors who can barely say that they can eat half full are only the survivors of the two layers A and B, and the survivors of the C and D layers look a little better than the E layer, but due to the large number of people. The base doesn't have so many supplies, so most of the survivors on these two floors rely on the accumulated points to obtain supplies, just. As the supply of materials becomes more and more scarce, the points required to exchange for materials are also increasing, and the points obtained from the zombie removal tasks around the base that are usually less dangerous are far from enough to exchange for such a full meal.
This large-scale patrol operation, even if the danger is unknown, but because of the high points of temptation/confusion, most people would expect a surprisingly large number of people in this operation. It's just that when Li Jia and the others followed Song Ji to the scene, they saw such uneven combat effectiveness, but their faces were not very good. No, or maybe Li Jia didn't understand the meaning of this large-scale operation?
Li Jia naturally knows that the materials in the base are in short supply, but when is the base not in short supply. It's almost every three or five times. Among them, they all led all kinds of good hands to explore outside one after another, and although they didn't gain much, they also brought back a lot one after another, and from her point of view, there was no need for such large-scale action.
Zombies are not human beings, and they can't be crushed by numbers alone, if so, there won't be so many sacrifices in the last days. With effective coordination and appropriate policies, more supplies can be captured with the least sacrifice. That's right, for so long in the end of the world, every time the patrol team acts, there will basically be people who are infected, sacrificed, and abandoned, and it is very likely that the person who is still smiling with you in the last second will be the person who pushes you into the zombie horde the next second.
However, this action was determined by the base commander and Song Ji together, although Li Jia didn't understand it very well, he could only bury such a slight doubt in his heart, but even so, looking at some of the survivors who were just carrying farm tools like hoes, Li Jia couldn't help frowning slightly, and said in a low voice, "Team Song, it's just a search for supplies, so many people need to be used, and the number of people is not as much as possible, only those who can become combat effectiveness can be effective, Did you tell me that yourself? ”
Song Ji's footsteps paused for two moments, and an indistinguishable look flashed in his eyes for a moment, and after a while, he slowly exhaled a breath, "Xiao Jia, of course I only have plans, although the people in this operation are mixed, they have been used in my plan, you don't have to worry too much, just follow the previous action orders, besides, it is not their ...... that our operation this time really has combat effectiveness."
Song Ji's words had just fallen, but the noisy sound on the scene suddenly fell, in such a short period of time, he very consciously lowered his voice, closed his mouth, and several well-trained convoys gradually drove into everyone's sight, obviously just a vehicle that was a little cleaner than other vehicles, but in the other party's actions, it was so solemn in his life, whether he had seen it or had not seen it, he was suddenly pulled away from all his sight at the first time.
This is the Gu family team, even if their Gu family has always been low-key, basically only people within the army have heard of the Gu family's name, but at the moment they appeared, they would unconsciously pull away all their attention, just such a first glance, no one dared to doubt the strength of this team, and other temporary teams composed of miscellaneous teams suddenly breathed a few sighs of relief, at least, with such a team, the survival rate will be improved a lot.
Just listened to the 'squeak' a few times one after another, the convoy stopped steadily and orderly, and saw that Song Ji and the others were not far from the front, Wang Jie walked down from the front vehicle, nodded, and said, "Our convoy has already arrived, let me make sure again, the search target of the base is the nearest resort?" ”
"Yes, that's true," Song Ji nodded, and said, "I'll tell you the truth, we intended to use the resort as a base before, compared to the current base, the supplies in that resort will be more sufficient, but then we had to give up because the resort couldn't set up defenses, and used the current base instead." ”
"But in that case, can you still send someone to search for supplies after the base is set up?"
"That's right, our base commander also had such an idea in the first place, and when the base was almost stable, we also tried to send people to search for those supplies, but ......"
Speaking of which. Song Ji's words stopped, and there was a faint sense that he didn't want to continue, for a long time. Only then did he exhale deeply, and suddenly lowered his voice, "That time, we had already lost nearly half of our manpower in less than a third of the position, let alone searching for supplies, if we left so late." I guess none of our people will be able to leave......"
"What's there, a horde of zombies or a mutant?"
"That's the scariest thing, we still don't know what we encountered. No, no, it can't be said that it was encountered, it should be said that we didn't see anything. One after another, some members died. ”
Said here. Song Ji stopped talking, judging from his expression, it seemed that he had no intention of going on, but he just turned around and raised his hand to Gu Ying, who was half-leaning on the car, said hello, and left the arrangement team.
However, at this moment, Gu Ying just glanced at Song Ji one more time. He didn't move, although his face didn't show much emotion. But Wang Jie, who was close to Gu Ying, could see that he was in a bad mood, Wang Jie looked at it, and said the general situation of the destination of this operation search, and only then did Wang Jie tentatively move his lips more, "Gu Ying, those two people haven't ...... yet." Arrive? ”
As soon as Wang Jie said this, Gu Ying couldn't help but kick it violently, making a 'bang' sound, not to mention that the two people were okay, when it came to those two people, Gu Ying, who could still control his complexion, finally couldn't help but sink down suddenly, just gritted his teeth for a while, "I didn't expect it, my Gu Ying really had a day when someone picked it up for nothing, I was really blind, I actually believed in those two rabbit cubs, and I couldn't find anyone in those few days. But after such a while, I can't see anyone! Hey, Wang Jie, you say, where can those two people go?! ”
It's not what Gu Ying said, this is not only Gu Ying, even Wang Jie wants to know, not only the E layer, but even the other layers, Wang Jie has deliberately spent a lot of energy to investigate, but the two people with such obvious characteristics have not disappeared at all, and they can't help but pause, and only said that sentence in a 'squeak', "Maybe...... Did you forget ......? ”
It's just that as soon as the words came out, even Wang Jie himself couldn't help but slap himself, how could he say such brainless words, really! However, as soon as Wang Jie's words fell, a slightly familiar female voice suddenly appeared, which made the two people in the team suddenly stunned, and as soon as they turned their heads, they could meet Su Xiaobai's pair of inky black eyes, and said very lightly, "I haven't forgotten, we have already come." ”
"Coming? Why didn't we see it just now? ”
"Oh, we were just on the roof of the car."
"On the roof?!"
"Well, one accidentally fell asleep...... Su Xiaobai said calmly, but when he said the last, his eyes couldn't help but be a little fluttering, and the next moment, as if he was verifying something, a figure jumped off the roof of the car immediately after him, his movements were so chic and neat, but from David's indifferent face without much expression, he had to make Gu Ying and Wang Jie believe that the guy who couldn't find anyone just now was indeed on the roof of his car...... Asleep!!
It's just that Gu Ying's face couldn't help but be a little dark, and his lips trembled with anger for a while, but in the end he didn't say anything and held back his words.
Of course, Su Xiaobai doesn't care about this, for her, this time is more like some kind of transaction, as long as she and David reach the goal of the transaction, and other favors are not taken to heart.
Of course, Su Xiaobai didn't fall asleep on the roof of the car on purpose, but after returning from that small dense forest, because of the high-intensity continuous training, her spirit and body and mind were extremely tired, although it was not impossible to continue to act like this, but when the other patrols were not fully concentrated, once the time was free, Su Xiaobai couldn't bear Xiaoxiao for a while, until Song Ji and Wang Jie were talking, she gradually woke up, I have to say, she rested very comfortably, David was by her side, She wouldn't let anything else bother her at all, and after resting for a while, Su Xiaobai's spirit was much better.
After thinking about it, Su Xiaobai suddenly seemed to remember something, and stretched out his hand and pointed to the vehicle behind, "By the way, Gu Ying, did you let your woman get on the convoy?" Why don't you put it around? I just saw her in the car behind her. ”
"...... woman?" As soon as Su Xiaobai's words came out, Gu Ying and Wang Jie couldn't help but be slightly stunned, as if they couldn't remember it all of a sudden, for a while, it seemed that they finally remembered who it was, Wang Jie's face sank a little, and a burst of annoyance flashed in his eyes, and Gu Ying's face didn't look good.
Seeing the expressions of these two people, Su Xiaobai probably understood that he was talking too much, it seemed that Gu Ying's action this time did not bring the woman over, and the woman named He Na probably sneaked into the car by herself.
Hawkers, this matter has nothing to do with her, after a few glances, Su Xiaobai and David finally felt that it was better to sit back on the roof of the car, compared to the small squeezing in the car, and the unfamiliar breath of life, David seemed to prefer to stay on the roof of the car, and Su Xiaobai did not have most opinions, although the gale was a little painful when it hung on his face, but the field of vision was indeed quite broad.
From here, I saw from a distance that there were members of Gu Ying's convoy looking for that woman, Su Xiaobai was indeed not mistaken, the one who sneaked into the back carriage was the beautiful woman she had seen before, after being brought to Gu Ying, she lowered her head slightly, and her face looked even more aggrieved and guilty, almost without pear blossoms with rain, as far as Su Xiaobai looked at it like this, he couldn't help but feel heartache.
Thinking like this, Su Xiaobai couldn't help but look at David's still slightly sluggish expression, with an unmoved look, which made her can't help but recall the scorching and gentle mark that fell lightly in her palm before, and the corners of her mouth were a little uncontrollably hooked up twice.
After a while, this large army finally set off under the command of Song Ji and other old members of the base, the scale of the entire large army was huge, Gu Ying's convoy was still relatively high, looking at the back, there were still a large number of people, so that Song Ji was divided into four groups, and each group was led by a team leader recommended by his own team, and Gu Ying's convoy, together with Su Xiaobai and David, was included in the first group. (To be continued......)
