One hundred and thirty security patrols
We went back to school with food and water from the grocery store and medicines and milk powder from the pharmacy to solve the problem of eating and drinking, but it took a lot of things for so many people to get together. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info nothing else, fuel alone is indispensable. So we went out again under the leadership of Marley and others to look for daily necessities, and by the way, drove away the sporadic thugs who were still looting nearby. But Ben and his juniors were left in school by me. After all, people still can't be killed casually, and if they want to kill, they can't be killed on the street. I'm afraid they'll get everyone in trouble.
We went out a few times and a lot of people saw us. Everywhere we went, many of the people who had been affected by the disaster saw that the school was a single-family house in a barley field that they did not share with others. This time, thanks to him, the two families used an automatic pistol to scare off the looting mobs, but the mob threw Molotov cocktails on the roof of the house to vent their anger and burned the house.
As a result, there were more and more people in the school, and we were even more stretched thin on the already scarce supplies.
Before dark, I contacted Malone on a walkie-talkie and learned that the situation at the base was calm, and that a few fugitives had been driven away, so that I could stay in the barley field with peace of mind. I discussed with Uncle Biao: "You see that there are already so many people here, they all need to eat and drink, and we can't cope with it with just 30 of us." And the nearby shops have been robbed, and there is not much left. Soon these people will starve. I wonder if we should organize a more permanent team to control this area, so that we can get everything we can get back. If it doesn't work, you have to look for supplies outside the barley fields. ”
Uncle Biao looked embarrassed: "Everyone is afraid of going out and encountering a large number of bandits, and there are not many people who are willing to help." ”
The Chinese are not good at all, sometimes even if the gun is pointed in the face, they still want to steal peace. But now I want to make some people understand the situation. I said, "Then you gather all the young men who can use weapons, and I'll talk to them and see if I can get a few people out to help." There are also those who come out to help, when distributing materials, priority should be given, and the number should be larger, and others should wait for these people to distribute the materials before distribution. Can you handle this? ”
Uncle Biao thought for a while and said, "Okay." I have a few apprentices, and it's a little useful to speak. So that everyone doesn't go hungry, I'll take care of this. I'm going to call everybody. ”
More than ten minutes later, more than fifty men gathered in the square in front of the school building, and I didn't talk nonsense, standing on the steps of the main gate and saying loudly: "I won't talk nonsense." All I want is to say that now your family has no food and clothing, and you need more food, more water, more bedding and fuel. The army does not yet know when it will arrive. If you don't act, your family will starve and freeze! ”
Looking at the reactions of those people, some were listening carefully, some were flashing their eyes, and some looked dazed. I continued: "It's almost evening. The mob will be more ferocious at night, and they may come back. Even if we can keep the mob out of the school, tomorrow more people like you will come here to seek refuge, and we will not have enough food to eat. Would you like to see such an outcome? ”
Billy. Hu also stood at the foot of the steps, and he shouted, "What then?"
This Billy is very eye-catching, I remember him.
I continued, "So we need to organize a patrol to not only collect all kinds of supplies, but also to drive the mob away!" How? Are you afraid of the thugs? But don't forget that you have guns, too! Today we beat the mob to the ground. As long as we are not afraid of them, they will have to flee! Well, who wants to join? ”
Seeing that many people were hesitating, I threw out the preferential policy for material distribution that I discussed with Uncle Biao: "The person I decided to join is for everyone's welfare, and his relatives have priority in the distribution of materials, and the number will be more." Others are post-assigned. ”
A voice came from below: "Why? ”
Big-eyed said arrogantly, "We got all these things back!" Just because we're here to protect! Who has an opinion can leave! ”
There are no more objections. I said, "Okay! Everybody gets the idea, right? Those who are willing to join stand on my left! ”
Marley, Billy. Hu and Bill. Dong took the lead to stand to my left, followed by more than 30 people. I looked with contempt at the twenty people who did not move, they did not dare to let go in this situation, they were really hopeless.
Eight more people stood in quick succession under my disdainful gaze. I said, "Okay." So I appointed Marley, Billy, and Bill each with a squad. You choose your own team members. ”
Ben, Shaw, Boehner, and Wood ran out of the building and shouted, "Why didn't you call us?" You know we're going to shoot. ”
Well, how is Ben's head like a pig's head? Ben noticed my strange gaze and gritted his teeth and glanced at his father. It seems that Uncle Biao's method of educating children is a bit rough.
I said, "You're not yet an adult!" ”
To be honest, thanks to the high-calorie food in the United States, Wood is taller and wider than me, so it's no wonder they don't accept my reasoning. And Ben gives a reason that I can't argue: "The thugs shot at us regardless of whether we were adults or not." ”
Uncle Biao, who was standing on the side, took a breath and said, "You just let Ben join." Now that his wings are stiff, I can't take care of it! When he said this, I noticed that an eighteen or nineteen-year-old girl who ran behind me just now, probably Uncle Biao's daughter, looked helpless.
It seems that the father and son have made a lot of trouble. I grinned at Ben and said, "Okay, then you can join." But you can't kill people casually, and all actions must be up to me. ”
Ben said, "Okay." But you'll have to get me a new gun. I'll get another one and I'll put it on for you. ”
I spread my hands and said, "I don't have any extra guns for you right now." Before he finished speaking, Big Eye had already put a Smith. Wei Sen's Model 629 pistol was handed over and said, "I happen to have more than one, you can use it first!" ”
Although this gun is a revolver, it is huge in size and powerful, and it is said to be able to kill elephants. In order to suppress the muzzle jump during firing, a counterweight is added under the barrel, so the shape design is extremely domineering. Big Eyes was going to keep it when he took it from the thug who had been killed, but since he was willing to give it to Ben, it means that he saw Ben right. I glared at me and said, "Okay! Now the task for the four of you is to go up to the roof and guard the surroundings from there. If there's a danger, alert you in time, you know? ”
"Huh?" I just got such a good gun, gritted my teeth, and I didn't know who I wanted to kill, and my face was as black as the bottom of a pot. But I ignored him and walked straight to Marley's side to see how they were grouped.
We divided the members of the patrol into three groups and adjusted the weapons so that each group leader had a balanced combination of short guns. Then I had one group serve as the school guard, one group to rest, and the third group was led by our men to patrol the west side of the school while collecting supplies that could be used. When the group returns, I'll lead the group that was resting out on patrol.
The evening turned out exactly as I expected. Before it got dark, many thugs entered the barley fields in an attempt to make a profit, but they were driven away by our resolute fire. In the chaos of darkness, a stray bullet hit one of our volunteers. However, as the scope of our patrols expanded, more victims gathered in schools, and the number of patrols increased further. In addition, more than a dozen Chinese Americans with weapons volunteered to join our patrol overnight, which made me very optimistic about the future of this community.
During the day, the thugs were a little quieter. Probably yesterday day and night they were all hit, so no one who didn't have long eyes came to find it uncomfortable again. Although gunshots could still be heard in the distance, the whole barley field was as dead silent, and except for a few lost dogs, we were almost the only living creatures moving in the streets. This allowed me to have a manager and someone to expand the search to commercial facilities outside the barley fields, to get everything that could be used to supply the people in the school, to clean up the corpses everywhere and concentrate them, and to set up a few barricades with cars at the intersections around the school to expand the control area. The quietness has even attracted some Chinese from the surrounding communities to the barley fields. From the news they brought, riots and looting continued outside the barley fields.
There was a rare calm, and I was going to give everyone a little rest these days, but when I spoke to Garand, he told me bad news: "The Russians say that the army has entered the eastern cities of Ukneun, Boston, and other cities to suppress the riots, but it will take a day or two before they can enter the western and central cities." Due to the destruction of water supply in many cities, the Russians speculated that over time some areas of the city would run out of water, even if they still had food, and that competition for drinking water could exacerbate the chaos in the cities. Not many people are paying attention to our base for the time being, but you better be careful. ”
