Chapter 54: Running for Survival
As soon as Li Nan's words fell, Hu Sanniang quickly opened the door of the RV and jumped down, and deftly got into the Hummer.
The two cars fled one after the other, Li Nan saw the surging zombie tide through the rearview mirror, tearing apart all the survivors and American GIs who blocked the way, and the buildings on both sides of the bridge were also cleaned by the zombies, and all the survivors who hid inside and did not escape were all killed.
The worse news is that the zombie giant with his broken leg is back on his feet and striding after him.
With the dozen or so tanks on the road, it made the cars behind a lot more comfortable, but it was clear that the zombies didn't want to let a single survivor go.
It's very difficult to break through a steel fortress like a tank, but it's not impossible for zombie insects that can fly and are not very large.
After searching the speeding tank for a while, the zombie insects quickly found a passage ---- cannon barrel where they could enter.
Many tanks in the Soviet Union and other European countries used automatic loaders, but it is a pity that the main tanks of the United States are all manually loaded, and after the fierce battle just now, the more than 10 tanks that are retreating, the gun bolts connecting the barrels to the hulls have not been closed.
What happens when a flexible and flying zombie flying insect burrows into a sealed iron box? The answer is obvious, it is a catastrophe!
Although the soldiers in the tank used their fastest speed to eliminate the flying insects and pull down the bolts, it was too late.
The soldiers who were bitten and stabbed by flying insects quickly turned into zombies, and then attacked the other soldiers, and it could be seen that half of the dozen or so tanks that were driving smoothly on the bridge over the Verrazzano Strait Bridge broke the steel cables on the side of the bridge and fell into the sea, and the rest also collided violently with each other, blocking the entire bridge deck.
The survivor who drove first and the RV driven by Gary both stopped in front of the tank blocking the road, and Li Nan, who was driving the Humvee behind him, stepped on the brakes and jumped down and shouted at his own people: "Run!" Come on! Leave the damn car alone! ”
Gary helped his wife and daughter climb over and shout at Li Nan, "Is there a satellite phone in the Humvee, I need it!" ”
casually threw a satellite phone in the car to Gary, Li Nan took out the gasoline drums stored in the RV in advance, and while spilling them on all the vehicles and tanks, he shouted to Hu Sanniang, who was still shooting zombies with a machine gun: "Bing'er, run, there's no time!" ”
The overwhelming zombies are getting closer and closer, and at this moment everyone is running with all their strength, Li Nan, who has been observing the situation in the rear, saw the zombie group coming to the vicinity of the tank, and hurriedly turned around and shot.
The bullets struck the tanks' armor and a clanging spark ignited the gasoline in an instant, and the blazing flames engulfed the tanks and several cars.
Li Nan didn't dare to stop, holding Hu Sanniang's little hand and running quickly, more than ten seconds later, the fuel tank of the car, the ammunition stored in the RV and the tank began to explode violently, countless zombies were blown into ashes, and the zombies who were still chasing their prey were also ignited by the raging fire......
"Wow!" Gary, who was running with his daughter in his arms, saw the scene behind him and gave Li Nan a thumbs up: "Great! You've probably killed thousands of zombies at once. ”
"Kill those bitches!"
"Cool!"
"You're a hero!"
The rest ......of the survivors who escaped praised Li Nan loudly, and at the same time applauded him in unison, and Du Xing and the other armor guards also applauded with everyone.
Seeing the actions of these Fanbang people, although she didn't understand what they said, Hu Sanniang knew that everyone was praising Li Nan, and her heart was suddenly sweet, if it weren't for the fact that there were many people here, she would definitely hug the man in front of her tightly.
Li Nan didn't pay attention to the words of the Americans praising him, but stared at the bridge deck shrouded in raging flames, and when he saw a huge figure burning with flames appear, he immediately shouted at everyone with an ugly face: "Run!" The giant zombies are rushing over! ”
The panic enveloped everyone again, looking at the terrifying huge zombies and the endless zombies that rushed over later, there was only one word in everyone's minds: "Run!" ”
Originally, according to the movement speed of the giant zombie, these survivors would have died here, but fortunately, the giant zombie was also seriously injured in the explosion just now.
Its left foot was blown away entirely, and now it is running with its calf bone on the ground, so it limps when it runs, and the huge arm on its right side is gone, but as it continues to grab the ordinary zombies around it to eat, these injuries are getting better little by little, and it won't be long before the gradually tired survivors will be chased and eaten by the zombies.
Gary ran to Li Nan's side with his daughter in his arms: "Can you help me hug my daughter?" I need to make a call for help. ”
Although Li Nan didn't know if Gary's distress call was useful, it was better than being chased to death by zombies, so at least he could give it a try.
Reaching out to pick up six or seven-year-old Connie, Gary who was free of hand, quickly took out his satellite phone and pressed the number as he ran.
The phone was quickly connected, and Gary said happily when he heard a voice coming from the microphone, "Larry, oh, thank God, you're still alive!" ”
Seeing Li Nan's curious gaze, Gary pressed the hands-free button.
A Larry's excited voice came from the phone: "Wren, I'll send a plane to pick you up now, where are you?" ”
Gary smiled bitterly: "We are on the Verrazzano Strait Bridge, rushing towards the west, there is an eight-meter-tall zombie giant and countless zombies chasing after us, if you still want to see me, I hope the plane you sent can come over as soon as possible." ”
As if calculating the distance, Larry said after a few seconds: "You're lucky, the command ship of the United Nations, the Argus, is more than two hundred miles east of New York, but the plane will take some time in the past, and I hope you can hold on a little longer." ”
Gary, who hung up the phone, said to Li Nan, who was holding Connie, "The good news is that we are saved, and the bad news is that we will hold on for at least a while." ”
looked at the tireless and desperate zombie group behind him, as well as the giant zombie who kept devouring zombies and became faster and faster.
Li Nan frowned and thought for a few seconds, then said to Gary: "You first accelerate to the front to find the car, otherwise we will all be dead ends if we continue to run like this." ”
"No!" Gary hugged his breathless wife, Karen, who had already run, and shook his head in disagreement: "I will never leave them!" ”
Li Nan persuaded: "Now only the two of us can drive, and I will personally protect them, Karen can't run anymore, do you want to see everyone being eaten by those ghost things behind?" ”
Gary looked at his wife, who was constantly wheezing and running hard, and said stubbornly: "Then you go to the front to find the car, and I will stay behind to take care of them." ”
