Chapter 397: Xiu's scalp is numb
Half a month after the world touched.
On the edge of a small city in India, a few young men and women with guns cautiously shuttled through the streets.
They climbed over the chaotic driveway, others took cover in the corners, and one of the girls slowly climbed to the top of a small, half-collapsed building.
The town was not a touch zone, but it was desolate and silent, with no civilians or troops in sight.
"It stinks in here... What a disgusting feeling... Amira, do you see anything?"
The girl, known as Amira, held her sniper rifle and used her sniper scope as a telescope, looking into the distance.
Her focus is on several shops and a medium-sized clinic facility.
Her face was covered with fine beads of sweat, and in the sniper scope, there were blood stains everywhere on the walls, the floor, and many places.
Perhaps it was because she hadn't come down for too long, so another woman climbed up and whispered about the situation.
"I didn't see anything! ”
The girl glanced at the man and her nervous-looking companion below, then climbed down.
These people did not pass on military uniforms, but they had rifles and other weapons because they were originally Indian soldiers.
But not a trained regular army, but a temporary mass conscription of recruits in various states across the country.
Although India is a world power in terms of population and area, it is obvious that it is not even in the second echelon in terms of the response capability of the state apparatus, and it may even be worse.
The only advantage is the demographic dividend, which quickly pulled up a large number of troops under the global wave of conscription.
However, there is a serious disconnect in the building of high-quality officers, and there is a general shortage of middle- and low-level officers with educational standards in the original army, and the construction of new recruits in the later ranks is even more chaotic.
This leads to a very strange phenomenon.
India, which has reluctantly joined the World League, has formulated its own sophisticated strategic layout in accordance with the defense plan commonly adopted in the World League.
However, they have too high a vision and ignore their own weak foundation, and their mature military system is not enough to support the strategic plan to accurately control a population of more than a billion.
The original million veterans are uneven, and illiteracy and old age are simply the norm.
In order to allow the newly recruited millions of troops to quickly form combat effectiveness, they have reduced the original veterans to pieces and inserted them into various recruit corps, preparing to use the old to lead the new and improve the combat effectiveness of the entire army.
The idea is good, but the veterans originally lacked quality basic officers, and all these veterans were inserted into the single officers of the recruit corps.
In the apocalyptic atmosphere, the chaos of the people looting supplies, the violent law enforcement of the police, and the chaos of the supply of Wanguo brand military supplies have made the panic of the Indian recruits even worse.
In the eyes of observers of the World League, the overall military system is not only a shock to the major powers of the World League, but also scares some Indian generals enough.
At the level of the World League Convention, it issued a warning to India through observers, and cooperated with the reformers of insight in India to remedy the situation.
There are still a lot of people who really understand, and at the critical moment, with the president as the core, there are military high-level officials who were originally in charge of the time of chaos to stand up and set things right.
Some of the re-recruited older veterans will be mixed with the active duty troops, and then some new recruits will be transferred to supplement the part, while maintaining the 800,000 regular army on active duty, and in the form of new recruits, the number of active duty troops will be expanded by 30 per cent in squads.
This retains a certain amount of combat effectiveness at the military level, but the consequence is that units with a real mix of recruits are even more inefficient.
At the same time, due to the sheer size of the country and population, these armies had to be prepared to go to the front after simple training, plus the early arrival of the dark tide.
In addition to the stability of the main areas of the first wave of contact warfare, the situation in the fringe battles often saw a serious collapse in the morale of recruits, and it was not uncommon for them to break up and flee the front.
India's commotion has made the scalps of the countries of the World Alliance tingle, especially China, which is its main neighbor, and is waiting for it on the border front.
From the head of the Central Committee and the special security group to the grassroots troops, they no longer have pinned their hopes on India to hold back the monsters within its borders, and the situation of some small countries on the fringes of the two powers may even be worse than that of India.
At this moment, these young people outside the city of Garo are the deserters of the collapse of India.
Amira and her companion cautiously climbed down the stairs and approached their companion.
"It's noon, and maybe those monsters really don't like the sun. ”
"It's also possible that they've left here to engage the regulars... After all, it'...... here."
Another man interjected.
"After all, the people here should have died if they didn't escape..."
This is the price of the army's slow reaction speed, and the leaked monsters are large and small and powerful to weird, and it is difficult for ordinary people to contend with them.
However, with reference to a series of strategic plans shared by the World Union, they do not have the ability to implement them accurately, because military literacy, weapons and equipment, and even infrastructure transportation capacity are not rooted.
When it comes to these heavy topics, several people are a little depressed.
"There are two supermarkets over there, and a clinic, shall we go to the medicine first or go to the supermarket first?"
"Supermarket!" "Supermarket..."
Seven or eight people all chose to go to the supermarket first.
Soon, they arrived at a broken supermarket in front of their house, and several of them tightened their guns, and they could see the nervous looks of their companions in each other.
"Let's go... Be careful!"
One step at a time, he tiptoed inside, his eyes constantly sweeping around.
Several shelves in the supermarket had collapsed, and the goods scattered on the floor had few of the food they wanted, as they had been looted in turn before the tide of darkness fell.
A lot of places are rendered in dark red.
"There's blood everywhere..."
Amira's words made everyone's breathing rapid, and suddenly, she paused, and the saliva in her mouth couldn't stop secreting.
"Bread and luncheon meat!!"
This sound quickly attracted everyone, and several people rushed to the shelves like crazy to tear the packaging, and then stuffed it into their mouths, not caring whether the bread was past its expiration date.
"Don't worry about eating, pack a bag!!"
Amira stuffed a loaf of bread, breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly called out, and then her companions unloaded their backpacks and unzipped them, and stuffed things into it.
"Roar~~~~"
The roar of a beast was heard in the distance, and everyone's movements froze.
The vegetation system around the world is now exaggerated, the small town itself has no high-rise buildings, and with the weakening of human activity, a large part of the forest has come into contact with the forest in just half a month.
"It's okay, it's okay, don't be a passing beast. ”
As soon as one of the men finished this sentence comfortingly, everyone heard more beast roars, and they became more and more noisy.
A few people are not veterans with military literacy, and they have seen the cruelty of the front line, and they have long become frightened birds, which will make their faces a little pale with fright.
"No, it doesn't have to be the monsters, there are a lot of Earth beasts in them..."
However, there were also various strange screams in the town of Kung Fu in a few words, most of which were sharp and abnormal, and some sounded like terrible cries, which were creepy.
"Hide! Find a place to hide!!"
Now it was clearly inappropriate to go out, so they chose to rush into a door on the side of the supermarket, then block it with debris inside, and then go up the stairs.
This building has about four or five floors, and the height of the floor is not low, except for the supermarket on the first floor, I don't know what the function is.
There were many rooms on the second, third and fourth floors, and I didn't know if it was a hotel or an apartment, but the bloodstains that could be seen everywhere in the corridor made a few people dare not stay, but went directly to the fifth floor of the top floor.
Above is a place like an entertainment room, which looks unobstructed, there are no small rooms and no suspicious dead ends, except for some mess, there is no bloodstain.
A few people breathed a sigh of relief, at least there were no monsters.
After securing the entrance door, Amira carefully leaned on the window of the activity room and looked out.
This is a commanding height of the town, and the companions are slowly approaching.
Cold sweat flowed down several people.
The town seemed to come back to life, and many strange humanoid objects escaped from the houses in many places.
Judging by the torn clothing, it is likely that they were once human, but now they are a little deformed.
Some of them are on all fours, some of them are jumping forward, and the same is that the deformed fingers are often very thick, many have claws, and most of the heads are much larger than ordinary people, and the mouth seems to be open to the chin, and the teeth and mouth are hideous.
From some collapsed and dilapidated houses, from some intact homes, from certain shops, and even from the clinic they had looked for before.
The monsters were fast, as if stimulated by the roars of those beasts, they rushed out of their hidden places.
Even though the doors and windows on the 5th floor were locked, everyone still felt that with the appearance of these monsters, the stench in the city became even stronger.
"So the smell is their..."
"Shh!!!h
Amira's breath was a little short, and the others who saw some of the details from the sniper scopes that were passed in turn weren't much better.
"What are these things..."
"No, I don't know... But some of them were dressed and some were humanoids..."
"Zombies?"
A bespectacled man swallows and wipes his sweat with his cuffs.
"No, I read a profile on the Internet... These could be, mutant ghouls!"
In the forests outside, countless beasts roared, and herds migrated through the woodlands around several cities.
If you look at it from the sky, not only Garo City, but also some villages, towns, and cities outside the nearby forests are flooded with ghouls.
Some have human forms, others have changed to resemble twisted giants or rickety monsters.
The smoke and dust they kicked up converged into the surrounding forest from several directions, and the one in Garo City was only a small part of it.
Two J-scouts skimmed through the air.
"Click......"
High-speed cameras and camcorders work constantly.
The distance between each other is less than 50 meters to ensure the efficiency of ultra-short wave communication.
In this day and age, the concept of airspace has become very vague, and places beyond India's control are naturally unable to provide shared intelligence, but China will not relax its surveillance here.
"Number One, what's down there?"
The driver looked at the ground through the driver's window, and they felt bad about the stuff that was scurrying out of the surrounding towns.
"Ghouls, but what are they doing?"
"We don't know much about their habits, but I feel like I'm in... Hunting?"
The fighters flew back and forth in the air a few times, and finally the two planes gave up the plan to attack the ground with warheads, on the one hand, carrying weapons had little effect on the tide of monsters of this scale, and it was easy to startle snakes.
On the other hand, after all, this is not our own territory, and the difference between reconnaissance and strike is very large, and there is no way to contact the command headquarters from a distance, and an air force major and an air force captain do not dare to make such a decision privately.
"Woo~~~~"
The sound of the plane passing by at low altitude also alarmed several people who were trembling in the civil war in Garo Town, and Amira could even see the logo on the Chinese fighter plane through the sniper scope.
