Chapter Twenty-Seven: Accidents on the Highway
On the highway, a convoy of vehicles is racing, they stretch for three kilometers, neat and orderly, no one rushes to the road, and the first is a black-painted explosion-proof car.
In the dark night, it was like a swimming dragon shuttling.
At this time, the convoy is passing through the core urban area, and through the high-speed green barrier, you can see a scene of brilliant lights in the vast city.
Binhe City is a sub-provincial city, and the prosperity and vastness of its urban area are more attractive than a general provincial capital city, and in Dongfang Province, only Quanting City, which is also a sub-provincial city and the capital of Dongfang Province, has the qualification to compete with it!
Of course, the prosperity and pride of the past are a thing of the past, and when the zombie virus broke out, all this has come to naught!
Looking at the bustling city below the viaduct through the barrier, the bright lights now leave endless fear and sorrow, and those who are trapped in the city are facing the most desperate time in their lives.
In the explosion-proof car, Zhang Wenming reacted from his unexpected emotions, and he didn't expect that the two sisters Su Ziyan and Su Ziling in front of him would be the daughters of his old head Su Changhe! Thinking of the old regiment commander who had not been in contact for many years after he was discharged from the army, his chest suddenly swelled with the blood of the time when he was in the army.
He vaguely remembered the regretful expression of the old regiment commander who wanted to train him as a battalion commander after learning that he was injured, and it was the old regiment commander who personally sent him out of the barracks, and he would never forget that scene for the rest of his life, and he couldn't help but have a pool of tears flowing in his eyes.
If it weren't for the accidental wound that year, he would not have left the army at all. Maybe he was still a soldier under the old regiment commander at this time.
Of course, there are not so many assumptions about everything.
"Tell me quickly, how is Captain Su doing now?" Zhang Wenming suddenly said enthusiastically, "Speaking of which, I haven't been in touch with him for several years, I don't know if he still remembers the sharpshooter under him back then!" ”
"I don't know if our father remembers you as a sharpshooter, but my father is in good health, and he is no longer the head of the regiment......" Su Ziyan said with a slight smile.
Zhang Wenming said: "Oh? So the old head of the regiment has been promoted? ”
Su Ziyan nodded and said, "Yes, that was five years ago, five years ago, my father was no longer the commander of the First Mechanized Infantry Regiment, but was transferred to the deputy chief of staff of the first division, and then promoted to chief of staff." Two years ago, he was transferred to the Western Theater and served as the deputy division commander for half a year, and before the outbreak of the zombie virus, he was also the commander of an army division in the Western Theater, and now I don't know which mountainous corner it is nested in, and whether it has been affected! ”
Su Ziyan called her father before, but she couldn't get through, and now that she thinks about it, the situation shouldn't be too good.
Zhang Wenming didn't expect that the former regiment commander was now the division commander, seeing Su Ziyan's worried look, he thought about it, and could only comfort: "You don't have to worry, the old regiment commander Jiren has his own natural appearance, and besides, it is better in the army than outside, if there are guns in the army, even if it will be chaotic for a while at the beginning, it can be quickly pacified." ”
"I understand this!" Su Ziyan nodded slightly.
In fact, if you want to talk about safety, there is no place to be safer than the army, as long as you survive the first wave of zombie mutation and do not become zombies, then with the deployment of weapons and the restoration of the system, the army has become an oasis in the end times.
The only thing Su Ziyan is worried about is whether her father Su Changhe can carry it in the first wave!
But now I think that these are all in vain, Su Changhe's division is stationed in the Qinling Mountains, about 1,200 kilometers away from here, such a distance is very far away even before the zombie virus broke out, not to mention that after the outbreak of the virus, it has become extremely difficult to travel between cities, even if her father is still alive, they don't know if they can see each other.
Speaking of which, water is still far from quenching thirst! The other people in the carriage originally thought that Su Ziyan's father had some say in the army and should be a good support, but they didn't expect to serve in the far western theater, which was thousands of kilometers away from here, and the hope that arose in their hearts at this moment was disappointed, and they couldn't help but be a little disappointed.
There was silence for the ensuing, and no one in the carriage spoke again.
Due to the tiredness of the night, everyone was a little sleepy, so except for the driver Liu Haihao and Zhang Wenming, who was in charge of the lookout guard, everyone leaned on the carriage and rested.
Su Ziling shrunk in Su Ziyan's arms, like a sleepy cat finding a comfortable position to squint and sleep, while Su Ziyan leaned on the back of the driver's seat, wrapping her sister with both hands, and the two of them snuggled up to each other.
On the other side, the white-collar beauty queen Le'er also leaned on Jiang Yan's shoulder, and she didn't care about the difference between men and women at this time.
The car drove steadily, and the sleeping bugs spread in the carriage, but the occasional terrible shouts from outside were like a nightmare, disturbing everyone's rest from time to time, so that they who had just experienced danger and were in a sleepiness woke up from time to time.
Su Ziyan slept very lightly, or wanted to sleep, but couldn't sleep.
Everything that happened today was still lingering in her mind, because she was too concerned about external things, she didn't have the heart to think about the changes that happened to her, but now she was at peace, and all kinds of thoughts suddenly came to her mind.
This feeling is like a complex line that is constantly changing, sometimes tangible, sometimes messy, constantly filling the brain's mind and teaching people to be restless.
Inexplicable transformation!
An apocalyptic crisis that is out of control!
A normal and peaceful life seems to have left her.
Although she did feel tired at this time, she couldn't sleep anyway, and all kinds of thoughts and speculations were constantly swirling in her mind.
The car swayed like a hypnotic shaker, and the car with the lights off was dim, only the barrel of oil in the car swayed slightly. She opened her eyes, listened to the rustling of vehicles outside and the strange screams that sounded from time to time, and couldn't help but tighten the Type 95 assault rifle in her hand, and then sighed faintly.
I don't know how long it took, in a drowsy state, Su Ziyan felt that the car seemed to be turning, she woke up and found that she was actually asleep, and at this time she saw signs on both sides of the highway through the front window, showing that they had turned into the coastal highway.
"Where have we been?" She asked the driver in a whisper.
Liu Haihao replied: "It's already on the first sea-crossing bridge of the Binhai Expressway, you can sleep for a while, and we can get off the highway in more than an hour." ”
"I don't sleep." Su Ziyan shook her head. She roughly knew that the Coastal Highway would pass through three sea-crossing bridges, and now it was the first, which meant that if there was an irresistible obstacle ahead, they would have no choice but to go back the way they came.
At this time, it was a dark sea outside, and the sound of the sea lapping could not be heard, but the waves could be seen churning in the moonlight.
"Brother Zhang, why don't I change it with you, and you can rest for a while?" Su Ziyan said to Zhang Wenming, who had been on guard.
"No, when I was conducting reconnaissance in the army, I tried it for a few days and nights without closing my eyes, and now it's a pediatric!" Zhang Wenming smiled, looking at the situation outside without blinking, with a focused expression.
Su Ziyan heard him say this, so she didn't insist anymore, she took out her mobile phone and was about to check the latest developments on the Internet, but after swiping it several times in a row, she found that the network was no longer connected, and when she looked at the mobile phone signal again, she didn't even have a call signal.
"It's useless, I've tried it before, the signal transmission of the mobile phone needs to be transmitted through the ground base station, I think there should be a problem with the ground base station now, maybe there is a problem with the power grid."
Su Ziyan was stunned, and couldn't help but put the phone back in her pocket weakly.
She should have expected these things a long time ago, and she also had some preparation in this regard, but when the mobile phone really lost its function, she was a little confused.
People who are accustomed to scientific and technological means once they get out of modern tools, many aspects will become at a loss, such as mobile phones, without mobile phones, they basically return to the stage of "communication by roaring", to find a person or contact a person, it is no different from looking for a needle in a haystack!
Fortunately, now Su Ziyan and they don't really have to rely on yelling, at least they still have a few walkie-talkies in their hands, and there is no problem with communication within a certain distance.
At this moment, the high beam in front of him flashed, and suddenly there was a trace of abnormality.
"Slow down and stop!" Zhang Wenming reacted and hurriedly shouted.
In fact, there was no need for him to remind him, the driver Liu Haihao also found the abnormality in front, and as an experienced driver, he started braking as soon as possible.
When the vehicles in front slowed down and stopped, the vehicles behind also stepped on the brakes.
