Chapter 56: Preparations Before Parting
The total population of Lincheng City is about 3 million, and in just two days, there are only 700,000 people left in the whole city, so you can see how lucky the people who are still alive are!
He Shuguang rode the army's war horse and galloped wildly on the street, and the tragic scenes on the street remained in his mind like purgatory on earth.
It was a scene even more brutal than war, a one-sided massacre! Human flesh rotted on the road and was ruthlessly trampled until it became a puddle of flesh, and a river running through the entire city was filled with many corpses, including men and women, female college students who were still in their youth, and old women who should have enjoyed the joy of family a long time ago, and their bodies were soaked in the river until they were blistered and turned into a pile of flocculents.
He Shuguang has been in the army for twenty years, and he watched the delicate Zhuxi enter the military system at the age of twenty, and then sat in the position of commander-in-chief of Lincheng step by step, just like looking at his daughter, he was so relieved that he is still a small non-commissioned officer. But he didn't regret it, he was an orphan, and it was the army that took him in, gave him safe shelter and didn't let him go hungry again...... So even if the youngest person who has been a soldier with him over the years has become a battalion commander, he has no regrets! He admires Nagisa Xi in his heart, a girl who is weak on the outside but strong on the inside, which is why he chose to stay by Nagisa's side.
He did it, Nagisa Xi has been in the army for eight years, from twenty to twenty-eight years old, if it weren't for this disaster, she could have climbed higher with the help of her family, but her right-hand man has always been only He Shuguang and He Shuhuan, two brothers, but He Shuhuan died honorably in a battle a few years ago, so the only person who Zhu Xi can trust now is He Shuguang who takes care of her like a father, which is one of the reasons why Zhu Xi is so extreme.
Having said that, every time He Shuguang passes by, someone will commits suicide because he can't stand the change, as a soldier, he should have rescued the people, but the soldier should take obeying orders as his first duty! Therefore, despite his ability to help, He Shuguang still did not waste a penny of time. The same is true of the few soldiers behind him!
Soldiers have it their duty to carry out orders! Despite being in the last days, as the last combat institution in China, they still have no choice!
When He Shuguang rode a war horse to the gate of Lincheng University, the sky was gradually darkening, He Shuguang glanced at the clockwork he was carrying, and said to several soldiers behind him:
"Time is pressing, act separately, take Cui Yu back to the barracks immediately after finding out, no need to meet again, we will see you directly in the barracks."
After speaking, several soldiers with loaded guns went to look for Cui Yu in different directions.
The direction He Shuguang went to was the teaching building where Cui Yu was, and Cui Yu was eating with his sister at this time, which might really be the last meal they had in Lincheng.
A few people sit around the middle of the boiler and put the vegetables and meat, which are still fresh, into the butter hot pot. Even though the last meal was hearty, several people couldn't laugh.
Although the conference room was very large, the students were all sent out to prepare supplies, so there were only Cui Yu, Wu Ruonan, Cui Yu and Gu Long, who was still awkward with Cui Yusheng, in the conference room.
"After this meal, let's get ready to go out of the city."
Cui Yu took a piece of plum blossom meat out of the pot and put it in his mouth. Plum blossom meat is the upper shoulder meat of the pig, that is, the position of the back of the neck, because of the relationship between the regular activity of that part, the whole is lean, but the lean meat is sandwiched with reticulated fat, and the overall shape resembles plum blossom is named plum blossom meat.
But plum blossom meat shabu hot pot is definitely not a good choice, because the plum blossom meat is generally thin, it will taste very chai, but Cui Yu can't care so much, swallow it in one bite, and drink a sip of Coke. Cold Coke makes people feel a little permeable in the cold winter.
"The materials have been prepared, now there are about 1,500 people left in Lincheng University, each person brings 20 catties of dry food, it will take about ten days to reach Star City from here, and each person can barely reach Star City according to the consumption of six taels per meal."
It was Wu Ruonan who said this, at this time, she was still worried about her classmates who were about to flee, maybe she was the only one who could be so kind among the more than 300 teachers in Linjiang University.
"Six taels is not enough for a person who has traveled through mountains and rivers to eat, but this can't be blamed on you, it is not easy to collect so much food in just a few days, and besides, you have to keep some food just in case."
Cui Yu didn't say anything, there was still a cold storage of food in his summoning space, so he didn't worry about his own food, the only thing that worried him was whether Wu Ruonan would give his food to others if he was so kind?
"There are also bedding, clothes, some medicine and bicycles ready."
"Alright, let's eat quickly, it's six o'clock soon, and we'll leave at nine o'clock."
Everyone was speechless, looking a little listless, they all knew in their hearts that this escape was likely to be nine deaths, but as long as there was hope for life, then someone would work hard for it, and Cui Yu was no exception.
Cui Yu looked at the people with their heads bowed and said encouragingly:
"You don't have to be depressed, you are lucky enough compared to those who have died, if you are lucky, after tonight, there will be a large number of people who will become the Acquired Awakened, although the strength is not as good as the congenital, but it is better than nothing, which will greatly increase our combat effectiveness and hope of survival!"
After listening to Cui Yu's words, the people present finally saw a glimmer of hope, and suddenly starved to death eating the food in front of them, and even Wu Ruonan, who had always been a lady, gnawed on the steak in front of her like a vent, as if this steak was her punching bag.
After such an apocalypse, the pressure on anyone will be great, especially Wu Ruonan is still the leader of the school, and her every decision is related to the life and death of the whole school.
Thinking of this, Cui Yu felt a little distressed for Zhuxi, who was also a commander, and the burden on her body was not much lighter than that of Wu Ruonan.
At the same time, He Shuguang met Wang Mingliang, vice president of Lincheng University, at the door of the teaching building, Wang Mingliang became extremely enthusiastic when he saw this soldier with a loaded gun, and when he learned that this soldier was coming to find Cui Yu, Wang Mingliang smiled and said:
"I'll take you to find it, speaking of this Cui Yu, it's really evil, please comrade soldiers must bring him to justice."
Then he added fuel and vinegar to how Cui Yu disrespected the principal and kicked him out, and told He Shuguang to listen.
He Shuguang didn't say anything when he heard it, and even his expression was extremely indifferent, but he just said lightly:
"Lead the way!"
Although Wang Mingliang was a little confused, he still obediently did so. He couldn't guess what the soldier was going to do. When he arrived at the door of the conference room, he heard the sound of pushing the cup and changing the lamp inside, and the sound of staggering and staggering, he was angry, he kicked the door open suddenly, and shouted:
"What about Cui Yu? Come forth, you terrible sinner, and the army of the people will judge you! ”
However, He Shuguang did not come to question Cui Yu's guilt, on the contrary, He Shuguang bowed very politely and said:
"Our commander is invited, and I also ask Cui Yu to go with me."
Cui Yu's face was a little not good, although he didn't want to have too much contact with Zhu Xi anymore, but fate always seemed to come to find Cui Yu as a joke.
Cui Yu waved his hand and said:
"Go back, I won't go to see Nagisa."
However, He Shuguang approached Cui Yu's ear and said a word in a voice that only two people could hear, Cui Yu suddenly turned pale and said loudly:
"Take me to her, hurry."
Then, regardless of the surprised gazes of everyone behind him, especially the puzzled gaze of his sister Cui Yu, he summoned Postiga and flew in the direction He Shuguang pointed.
