A tide of tens of millions of corpses.

The mere stench of decay produced has caused such a severe plague.

A large number of soldiers also began to cough, most of the soldiers were not yet evolutionaries, and the bodies of ordinary people were exposed to the air full of germs for a long time, and their physical fitness began to decline significantly......

People are panicked, and rumors are spreading.

Many people rumored that many soldiers tore off a few rags and soaked some water on their faces to use as masks, and after a few hours, the leaking masks would appear a layer of brownish mucus, which looked disgusting.

Sick.

The panic in their hearts and the physical discomfort caused many soldiers to have signs of fever and illness, and the large corpse tide had not yet launched an attack, and the interior of the Iwayama base was already in chaos.

Bad.

It's really not good.

But the worst thing is that even now, the generals are still chattering and arguing at the Iwayama base.

"Mr. Wu Ze, take a sip of hot soup."

"You observe the tide of corpses here every day, which is not good for your health, and the upper echelons have prepared gas masks for you." The guards guarding Wu Ze's side brought today's food, and at the same time took out a biochemical gas mask, which can be regarded as a special "care" service.

You must know that the current conditions of the Iwayama base can only produce a large number of inferior masks at most, and how important the biochemical gas masks that can purify toxic gases and nuclear radiation contamination are that only high-level personnel have the right to use.

"Gas masks??"

Wu Ze smiled lightly and shook his head.

His gaze swept to the city walls, where the soldiers in the ravines were shivering in the cold wind.

From this height and angle, the soldiers were clustered together like ants, accompanied only by cold, swarthy guns and boxes of oil-stained yellow bullets.

Many young people have only a hollow in their eyes.

In the void, you can see fear and despair, but more often than not, confusion.

For some reason, Wu Ze felt a chill in his heart, pushed off the gas mask and jumped down, jumping to the vicinity of the ravine dozens of meters below amid the exclamations of the surrounding soldiers.

"Whew~~"

One of the soldiers rubbed his hands together and warmed them up with a little air to make sure his fingers weren't too stiff.

Syllable.

A large hand patted him on the shoulder.

I don't know when, Wu Ze appeared behind him silently, and said with a faint smile on his face: "It's hard work." ”

"Ahem, ahem!!"

The soldier almost choked on his own saliva, and immediately stood up and gave a military salute: "Hello sir." ”

Obviously......

He regarded Wu Ze as a certain chief who came to condole.

Wu Ze nodded, his body slipped and he got into the ravine, opened the ammunition box and checked it, and then carefully checked the heavy machine gun that was level with the horizon, he was very familiar with these as a soldier, and he was extremely skilled in disassembling the heavy machine gun into parts and checking every detail.

"Sir, don't worry!!"

"We have checked all the guns many times, and they are maintained in strict accordance with the regulations, and there will be no problems at critical moments."

The soldier's face was very nervous, for fear that the commander in front of him would detect some flaws, but he was so confident in his gun that he took more time touching it than he did touching his wife.

"Good."

Wu Ze nodded, the basic quality of these fighters is still very strong: "On the battlefield, weapons are your lives." ”

"Yes!!"

Several soldiers saluted again, they were quite experienced, although they had not experienced the terrifying large corpse tide, but the small corpse group had also encountered a few times.

"I'll ask a question."

Wu Ze looked at a few young soldiers and asked, "What do you think you're fighting for?" ”

Why fight??

It couldn't be simpler.

A slightly older soldier immediately replied: "It is the duty of a soldier to obey orders, and the commander must obey any order!" ”

Oh, yes.

Obey orders.

Even if it is sent to death, even if it is to resist on the front line of the battle, even if it is a character who bears the "cannon fodder" like those rotting corpses, it must be done without hesitation.

"That's not what you really think."

Wu Ze's hand was placed on another slightly younger soldier: "Tell me the truth." ”

Truth?

The soldier couldn't tell the truth.

Because he didn't know why he was here, he was just following orders......

In order to obey orders, he had to overcome his fears.

In order to obey orders, he had to endure cold and hunger here, and be ready to sacrifice at any time.

All this, for what??

At this moment, an even younger soldier stepped forward.

His face was full of immaturity, and he looked only fourteen or fifteen years old, and he was probably still in junior high school before the end of the world.

This immature soldier seems to be on the battlefield for the first time, but in that eye you can see a different light, not buried by killing and blood, almost pure "innocence". ”

"To protect important people, of course."

"My sister, and my former table mates, are behind the walls!!"

The young man's somewhat immature voice shocked people, but Wu Ze made fun of him: "At the same table?? You're lucky to have your classmates alive, that table mate should be a girl, right? ”

Hearing Wu Ze say this, the young man's face turned red, and everyone has experienced the period of the beginning of love, just like the song "You at the same table", which has set off countless people's good memories of their first love.

Although it was the first time for the boy to go to the battlefield, he had a lot of enthusiasm.

He didn't quite understand what it meant to "obey orders as a vocation", but in this immature body, there was a tenacious soul that protected his sister and the girl he liked the most, which was why he appeared here to be a soldier.

Many people, having experienced countless killings, have long forgotten what the "original intention" is.

It's often that simple.

In addition to orders, there are important things that must be protected within the walls.

Loved ones, lovers, brothers, partners, favorite girls...... You can even be a stranger, as long as those things are important to you.

Many veterans on the battlefield, listening to the young man's words, the confusion in their eyes was swept away, but gradually burned with a scorching fire, as if they remembered something.

Wu Ze seemed to have heard the answer he wanted.

Oh, yes.

Behind the walls, it's not just resources, it's not just the number of human lives.

Behind the city wall, there is hope and the most important protection of countless people.

Countless soldiers stick here to protect this soft and fragile and extremely tough thing.

They didn't think about how to get the most out of their power, how to keep their power, like the generals in the conference room, chattering and arguing like flies.

"Thank you for your answer."

"Looks like I'm going to the Commander's Boardroom."
