Chapter 245: Into the City
"It's really strange that you came to us and asked us, if this had been a different place, you would have been dead a long time ago."
The man raised his eyes and glanced twice, Ma Tao, who was wearing protective clothes, and then scratched the pus on his body with his hand, and a stream of pus flowed out of the scratching part, looking very disgusting.
"You should be the ones who die"
Ma Tao frowned, then glanced back at Xiao Jinzi, stretched out his hand to him, raised his voice and said loudly, "Do you know who this person next to me is!" I tell you, he is the son of your Seoul Standing Committee member Jin Bang Jinbao! β
After Ma Tao said this, Xiao Jinzi took a step forward very cooperatively, but no one applauded at the scene, let alone cheered, except for the people brought by Qian Santai who made some sounds when they moved the corpses, there was no sound.
"Commissar Jin is not a general, he can't control us, besides, he is just the son of Commissar Jin, he doesn't even have an official position, what can he do"
The man who had spoken before glanced at Xiao Jinzi, who was also wearing a protective suit, and didn't think he was anything special.
Gao Han knew that these soldiers would not obey Ma Tao's words at all, they didn't know Ma Tao, a person they didn't know, what he did, no identity, no popularity, what people they said might be believed, but it had little effect.
"It's time for you to say something..."
Gao Han approached Xiao Jinzi and said.
At this time, almost all the focus is on Xiao Jinzi's face, although he is wearing a protective suit and a protective shield on his face, people with good eyesight can still see Xiao Jinzi's face.
"I'm Jinbao, the son of Seoul Commissioner Kim Bang, I just want to ask you one thing now, do you want to continue to live"
There was no grandiose opening remark, and Xiao Jinzi came up and asked a very simple but thorough question.
"What do you mean by that? Who doesn't want to live well, but look at us, how many days can we live like we are now? I'm afraid it won't be long before there won't be a single person here."
The man snorted coldly, amused by Little Gold's question.
"We have medicine to treat you"
Xiao Jinzi's next sentence was the beginning of an uproar, and the plague patients gathered here instantly boiled, and then everyone's eyes looked at the big trucks.
Ma Tao suddenly noticed a hint of something wrong, this is also Xiao Jinzi has no experience in dealing with this kind of occasion, he said this, undoubtedly equivalent to telling those people that there is life-saving medicine in their cars, which is definitely the greatest hope for those who have been tortured by the plague and are about to give up, this kind of thing is nothing if there are few people who can control it, but now, it is obvious that the other party is overwhelmed, and Party B has less than 100 people, if these guys really come up and snatch it like a swarm, not to mention how much will be robbed, The losses caused in the robbery alone are immeasurable, thinking of this, Ma Tao subconsciously turned his head to look at Qian Santai, after all, these medicines are his, and it is he who was robbed and lost.
Obviously, Qian Santai also frowned when he heard Xiao Jinzi's words, but there was no way, everything that should be said and what should not be said had already been said, the matter had happened, and it was irreparable, and Boss Qian could already see the scene of the imminent riot from the eyes of these plague patients.
Everyone doesn't want to die, even if there is only a trace of it, everyone wants to live, especially when they can predict their own death, even a second more life is precious, and those truckloads of materials are obviously the best hope for them to survive.
"Brothers! Snatched those goods! β
Finally! Before the choice of life and death, under the choice of human nature, the Seoul garrison guarding the city was almost like bandits, accompanied by a shout from a garrison covered in sores, and these people who were already mad from the plague rushed over to the location of the truck where Ma Tao and the others were located with red eyes.
As the saying goes, there are 100 people, all kinds of people, 1,000 people, boundless, more than 10,000 people, it is completely even the sky, at this moment, these still alive garrisons are about 3,000 even if they are at least, so old people rush over together, the visual shock is still very large, especially this is still a large group of faces and facial features like hungry ghosts in hell, Qian Santai's hundred or so subordinates almost immediately put down the work in their hands, and instantly planted the weapons on their bodies, but these garrisons who rushed over are not vegetarians, It's not that I'm scared, these were all regular soldiers before, how could they be afraid of the weapons of this hundred or so people, and they didn't stop at all and continue to rush over.
Facing the black crowd, Gao Han directly opened the safety of the flame gun, and the orange flames instantly began to burn in the muzzle of the flame gun, Su Lanyu also pulled out the knife behind his back, and all those who had weapons showed their weapons, vigilant against the crowd that was getting closer and closer.
There is no way, the number of opponents is too much, and if there are people with ulterior motives who take the opportunity to attack, they only need to tear off their protective clothing to maximize the danger to them, so at this time, the most believed thing is the weapon in hand, and no one is allowed to get close to him.
Xiao Jinzi didn't think that it would cause this kind of result, and he didn't think that these well-trained garrisons that he had watched since he was a child would rob things like bandits.
Seeing that these hundreds of people were about to come into contact with these thousands of people, and seeing that everyone had already clenched the weapons in their hands and were about to start fighting in the next second, the crisis was very ten, but Qian Santai was the calmest.
"Protect yourself!! Let them grab! They won't match the potions, and if they rob them, they will rob them for nothing!! β
Qian Santai's words were shouted by him as if he was desperate, because of the extreme pull of his vocal cords, the words he shouted were more or less hoarse, but this voice was enough for the hundred or so people who were not too far away to hear it clearly.
In an instant, the subordinates brought by Qian Santai immediately began to act, two in a group, in a group of three, back to back, holding weapons, they didn't look at the plague patients who rushed straight to the truck, and paid full attention to the people who ran by, guarding against their sudden moves, obviously, their actions in such a unified and standardized way were all trained, looking at their submachine guns, there is no need to guess, Qian Santai has worked them.
Because this method is good, Ma Tao also did the same, and quickly took people away from the truck, and together with Qian Santai, they formed a circle on the side.
Soon, the plague garrison who rushed to the truck first tore the tarpaulin from the car like crazy, and then they were all stunned.
More and more people rushed into the truck, but no one grabbed the things on the truck, because the medicines on these dozen trucks, whether they were bottles or cans, did not have any names, and many of them even had colorful solutions inside, and no one knew what was in them or how to use them.
But there is no shortage of courage at any time, a garrison with rotten meat can't care so much, directly picked up a bottle that can have 200 milliliters of light yellow, opened the lid, and drank a few large mouthfuls of the light yellow liquid at the mouth of the bottle, at first there was no reaction, the garrison with rotten meat also looked at the little light yellow liquid left in his hand, but then, less than five seconds later, I saw that the expression on this person's face was extremely painful, covering his throat and taking a few steps back, his eyes widened, Fell from the truck with a bang, and when he landed, the bottle containing the pale yellow liquid in his hand smashed on a stone and shattered with a click, and the liquid inside flowed out, as soon as it touched the ground, streams of white foam came out in an instant, looking at the man, desperately scratching his throat with his hands, and had scratched the skin that was already somewhat rotten outside, and after a few clicks, his fingers were buckled into the flesh, but he was still digging his throat desperately as if he didn't feel any pain, After more than ten seconds, the person finally stopped grabbing his throat, and when he looked at it again, he was already out of breath, with a bloody piece on his neck, and even his trachea was grabbed out by himself, and his death was extremely terrifying.
Of course, the impulsive can't be just this one, a group of people in another truck also opened a bottle of liquid, it smelled pretty good, so he didn't hesitate to take a sip, the people around him naturally didn't want to see him enjoying it alone, and just about to drink it after taking it, he saw him foaming at the mouth, rolling his eyes, and falling into the car with convulsions.
Another group also opened a bottle, which was filled with gas, and several of them died in the space of three or four meters around him.
In an instant, all the infected garrisons who rushed around the truck froze there, and no one dared to move these inconspicuous-looking bottles and cans on the truck, and it was these people who died so quickly that everyone was frightened.
Although they were infected with the virus of the Black Death, they did not have the virus in their minds, they could tell the difference between early and late death, and the purpose of rushing into this truck was to find hope to live, but now, this is obviously dying faster.
"I've already said that those potions need to be blended, and if you use them indiscriminately, you will die!"
The garrison that had been infected with the plague rushed to the truck, and Qian Santai's subordinates regrouped together when they saw that there was no danger, and protected Qian Santai and Ma Tao together in the middle of the circle, Qian Santai looked at the few people who were already cold, and smiled again.
Ma Tao looked at Qian Santai, who was strictly protected by his subordinates, while paying attention to the garrison that was infected with the Black Death, I have to say that this businessman is very good at both doing business and winning over people, otherwise he would not have gathered such a group of subordinates who were willing to go to the soup for him, thinking about the chariot just now, 40,000G, maybe he was also his target.
"Now you keep grabbing! Destroy all those medicines, and destroy your hope of survival, come on, do it!! β
It seems that it is he Qian Santai himself who is robbing the medicine, Qian Santai is very proud at the moment, with this, he believes that he can handle thousands of people without a temper.
"See, you should really learn from Boss Qian"
Turning to the side and glancing at the little gold, Ma Tao whispered to him.
"It's just a businessman, what's there to learn..."
Xiao Jinzi held the rifle in his hand, and said unconvinced.
"I mean the way you deal with problems"
Ma Tao was speechless, maybe Xiao Jinzi was not born to be a leader, if you let him study the chariot, do some theories to ensure that he can give you the head of the way, but you let him deal with this kind of thing, don't even think about it, absolutely give you the whole sparse, born not this material, I don't know how this kid inherited his father's genes, Commissar Jin's strategy, calm and deep, he didn't inherit it at all, and there is even a diametrically opposite trend.
"What the hell are you trying to save us!"
The man from before stepped forward again.
"You haven't told me who you are or what your position is,"
Ma Tao still remembers this person's previous arrogance.
The man glanced at Ma Tao, and then said, "My name is Xia Shiren, and I am the commander of the second company under the command of the current supreme commander of the garrison, Commander Wei."
"Company commander?"
Ma Tao lowered his head and muttered, and glanced twice at the body of the self-proclaimed Xia Shiren.
A company commander is indeed a little too small in terms of official position.
"I know what you think, but here I am the biggest, there is no doubt that those who are taller than me are already dead, you are a few days late, I guess you can't see me"
seemed to see the unsharpening in Ma Tao's eyes, and this Xia Lian Commander did not shy away from these, and after saying it with some self-deprecation, he smiled bitterly first.
The biggest officer is only one company commander left?
This news made Ma Tao quite surprised, looking at Qian Santai, obviously he was also a little surprised, there were just the two of them plus a small gold who was familiar with the mechanism and strength of the garrison before, and now they actually died so much, it is conceivable how many lives were taken by the Black Death, which is simply more terrifying than the number of people lost in a big war.
"How many more people do you have?"
Qian Santai asked.
"Except for the camp, everything that can't even move is here."
Saying this, Lian Chang Xia looked around at the brothers like him around him, and a feeling of sadness that couldn't help but arise from his heart.
"How?"
Speaking of which, Qian Santai looked at Ma Tao.
"Your medicine should be enough to save these thousands of people, right?"
Ma Tao asked rhetorically.
"Don't worry, there are more than mistakes"
The corners of Qian Santai's eyes narrowed slightly and said.
Ma Tao nodded, but saving people must be saved, and it can't be saved in vain, especially at this time.
"That Xia Lian Commander, to be honest, just now, I didn't even use this batch of medicines to save you people, do you know why?"
Speaking of this, Ma Tao glanced at all the garrisons in the camp and continued, "Because you don't have the appearance of a soldier at all!" You call the garrison! What to keep! What to prepare! You are guarding the safety of Seoul, and you are guarding against the power that may appear at any time, but just now, you asked yourself what you have done! As a garrison, he plans to rob things like bandits! Is this what the garrison can do? Is it! β
The birds were silent, everyone was looking at Ma Tao, almost forgetting how long it had been since no one mentioned the three words of the garrison, and now when they heard Ma Tao mention it, a trace of shame couldn't help but appear in their hearts, as soldiers, they are not afraid of death, but they don't want to die like this, such a death is too worthless, soldiers, death will also die on the battlefield, death is vigorous, like this kind of torture by the virus is simply the biggest insult to them, but there is nothing to do.
"Just tell us what you want us to do!"
Finally, there are still smart people, and from Ma Tao's words, they can hear the extraneous sound.
Ma Tao looked at the person who spoke, a severely ill patient who needed to rely on crutches to stand up.
"I don't need anything, I just hope that the garrison can revitalize the function of the garrison, and we will be your backing, what I want is to revive the prosperity of Seoul!"
Inspiration depends on how to flicker, Ma Tao's flickering works, and the next thing is much simpler.
The people brought by Qian Santai were only responsible for preparing medicines to restrain the plague, and as for cleaning up the corpses, they were left to these active garrisons to deal with.
In the camp of more than 10,000 people, more than 3,000 people survived, on average, one person needs to carry away four corpses is enough, so the workload is not strong, the only thing that is more difficult is the time it takes to bury and burn the corpses.
Since ancient times, the East has paid attention to the peace of the earth, and the war is cruel, but the cruel war still does not lose the "courtesy" side, so the ancients usually buried the dead in battle, but the way is simple, burying the body into a deep pit.
This method of treatment is called "pit killing", also known as "killing by stinging". Pit killing is not about burying alive, but about disposing of corpses.
Of course, there is also the phenomenon of burying the opponent's soldiers alive in the "pit killing". According to the "Historical Records", the Qin army defeated the Zhao army in the Battle of Changping, and the commander of the Qin army, Bai Qi, could not handle as many as hundreds of thousands of prisoners of war, so he "trapped" 400,000 Zhao troops. However, according to the analysis of historical data, most of the 400,000 Zhao troops were the corpses of the war dead, and there were also captured Zhao soldiers, not all of whom were alive
There are too many corpses on the battlefield, and it is very troublesome to deal with. Not only is there a lot of work, but there are also problems of pollution and plague caused by the decomposition of corpses. A more rational way to deal with it is to burn it.
If thousands of corpses were buried in the ground, what a pit would have to be dug.
In the camp, there is no shortage of fuel, so the corpses are piled up, poured with fuel, and then the fire is over, and then the burned area is turned over and buried.
The whole camp is busy, Ma Tao didn't forget the call with his sister, nor did he forget the two-day agreement, now, Qian Santai has come with medicine, and today is the next day.
Ma Tao's watch vibrated for a while, and his sister's message arrived.
Looking for a place where no one was, Ma Tao took a look, the information was very simple, there were only two messages that could be clear, one was that Ankang had fully recovered after taking ginseng medicine, and the other was that there was a shortage of food, and Ma Tao was urgently needed to bring some food and water to them.
After a simple tidying up, Ma Tao took Xiao Jinzi, An Ruo and Qian Santai, carried enough food and water, and drove the No. 2 jeep straight to the city.
Speaking of Seoul.
Sister R has been at No. 1018 in the South District for the past two days, one is waiting for Ma Tao, the other is to observe whether the ginseng medicine can cure An Ruo's parents and brothers, and the third is worried about the situation of Xiao Jinzi's father in the command post, but judging from Ma Tao's previous agreement, there should be no problem in a short time.
The effect of the ginseng medicine on An Ruo's younger brother Ankang is very obvious, and at this moment, there is no major problem in his physical condition or mental condition, which is mainly due to the fact that the virus has not yet reached a certain level of damage to his body.
However, the top priority is still the problem of food, and Ankang wants to leave to the street to see if he can find something to eat, but is stopped by Sister R.
Just kidding, if you can find food outside now, then you won't experience a scene at the city gate before, let Ankang go out to find food, he goes out, it is likely that he himself will become eaten by others, as a last resort, Sister R had to use her watch to inform Ma Tao of the problem of food and drinking water, hoping that he could see it.
An Ruo's parents also took ginseng medicine, but it seemed that the recovery was very slow, but they could see that new flesh was growing on the skin on their faces and hands, but they were still in a coma, and from the breathing point of view, their cardiopulmonary function was recovering little by little, which could be known from the longer and calmer breathing of the two of them.
Because there was no food, Ankang could only replenish them with more water, but fortunately, there was water stored in the house before, and it could be used for a while, after boiling the water, Ankang found a small spoon and began to feed his parents one bite at a time.
Although they are all in a coma, people can still do it for subconscious behavior, for example, if you touch the eyelids of a comatose person with your fingers, he will still subconsciously shake it, this situation is called a knee-jerk reaction, and it is also a nervous reaction, which is a conditioned reflex formed by the body without brain control, so Ankang still knows to drink when he feeds his parents water with a spoon, but he drinks very slowly, but after all, he is drinking water, you can't always point to a person who is in a coma and can swallow, that's unrealistic.
The No. 02 jeep was driven by Ma Tao, and after entering the city, he went straight to No. 1018, where his sister was located, because Ma Tao needed to go to his sister first to find out the specific situation.
In the car, Ma Tao finally told Xiao Jinzi what Sister R told him about the fact that Xiao Jinzi's parents were likely to be controlledγγγγγγγγγγγγ???????????????????????????????????????????????
