Chapter 29: Back to the Supermarket
However, this mission does not need many people, I just need elite soldiers and people who can be trusted, these people I don't dare to use casually before I have reviewed their combat effectiveness, after all, this mission can be big or small.
"Guo Shan, how many trucks can we use now?" I asked.
"Big brother, I took someone to tinker with it yesterday, plus the five you drove back, and now there are fourteen big trucks." Guo Shan said.
"Tan Jingwen, the eldest seven of your people stay." I said.
"Long Jiu, your brother left three." I said.
"Chen Zhuo, Ding Wei, Lin Wen, the three of you will also stay." I said.
"Wu Jun, among this group of young people, you pick eleven bold ones." I said.
"The others, stay and guard the city, and wait for us to come back." I said to the crowd.
Seeing that the new and old team members were about to raise objections, their eyes were full of complaints, complaining that I wouldn't take them there, so I waved my hand directly and said: "This is an order, the state has national laws, and the family has family rules, don't talk to me now, task first, safety first." ”
Presumably the new team members have also heard my legend, as soon as I said this, the new and old team members did not dare to say anything more, and the people who stayed consciously pushed out the hall, and Wu Jun began to select people.
I calculated that there were 30 people on this trip, and in order to ensure communication, the command vehicle would definitely go, that is, fifteen vehicles, two people per car, and the vehicles and manpower to move things should be enough.
As for Wu Jun and Wang Qiang, I also considered leaving one in the city, but I don't trust these people they rescued, they can also help me watch a little, there are new and old team members in the city to watch, and there should be no problems with such fortifications.
It was still the truck we had modified before, and there were all big trucks behind it, my command car was at the end of the team, Wu Jun was at the head of the team, Wang Qiang was in the team, and as for the eleven young men picked out by Wu Jun, I arranged for one of our team members to be with them in case there was a change.
Long Jiu wants to be my driver, and I can't resist him, so I can only fulfill his wish.
"Long Jiu, why are you willing to follow me?" I asked Long Jiu, who was driving seriously.
"Big brother, do you want to hear the truth or lie?" Long Jiu asked.
"Your uncle, of course you listen to the truth, there are only two of me in this car, will Xiao Huang tell the truth?" After saying that, I also glanced at Xiao Huang, who was sleeping comfortably in the back seat.
"That's right, it doesn't speak." Long Jiu said.
"Originally, I admired you for being ruthless enough, and then I admired your ability, whether it was dealing with zombies or people, you always had a way to deal with it, and then look at the three sisters-in-law around you, they are not ordinary people, beautiful and capable, they are all willing to accompany you to death with all their hearts, I must be right to follow you." Long Jiu continued.
"I can't see that you look thick and leafy, and your heart is quite thin." I said with a smile.
"Big brother, don't laugh at me, I've been on the rivers and lakes for many years, I don't have a head and a face, I can be regarded as reading countless people, I can't be wrong to look at people, you will definitely have great achievements in the future, and you will definitely have a future with you." Long Jiu said very seriously.
I didn't speak again, but lit a cigarette and handed it to Long Jiu, which can be regarded as my recognition of this brother, I don't know if I will do anything big, but I know that I rarely look at people, because before the end of the world, I have seen through the warmth and coldness of people.
Because we set off late, it was completely dark before we arrived at the destination, and now I don't know the situation in the city, I didn't dare to rush forward, the convoy was set up in a relatively hidden place, and I took Long Jiu and Wu Jun to the city on foot.
After walking for nearly an hour, we arrived at the edge of the city, because when we fled before, there were many zombies chasing behind our convoy, and I was afraid that those zombies were still gathering on this road, but along the way, we only encountered a few sporadic ones.
"Did someone get ahead of the curve?" Long Jiu counted.
"Shut your crow's mouth, you still drag the idiom for me, and take a good look at the situation near the supermarket." I said to Long Jiu.
After saying that, the three of us dispersed, each holding a telescope with night vision function, and each found a suitable position, so that we could see the situation in several directions of the supermarket, and Xiao Huang sat next to me.
I'm looking at the main gate, there are indeed very few zombies in the direction of the main gate, not only the main gate, the zombies in the whole city seem to have disappeared, there were tens of thousands of zombies before, and now I can see more than 100 in this position.
"How's it going over there?" I pulled out my walkie-talkie and asked.
"Report to the eldest brother, there are only more than ten zombies on this side of the back door, and there are very few zombies in the city." Long Jiu said.
"Report to the eldest brother, there are only seven or eight zombies on the side gate, and there are only a few dozen zombies in the city."
It's really a hell of a sight, tens of thousands of zombies are gone if they don't see it? Did you run back? It should be very possible, maybe someone entered the city not long after we left the city, and when they found that there were too many zombies in the city, they led the zombies out, and as for the zombies chasing us, there are so many small roads on this road, and it is normal to be led away by something.
"Big brother, do you want to attack it directly?" Long Jiu's voice came from the walkie-talkie.
"The situation is unknown, return to the convoy, and in the early hours of the morning, we sneak into the supermarket to have a look." I said into the intercom.
The three of us returned to the convoy and beckoned everyone to rest quickly, I personally drew ten people to prepare to enter the city with me in the early hours of the morning, basically I personally recruited team members, the kind that can kill zombies, and then drew ten more people, two people in groups of two to guard on the roof of the car at night, and the remaining ten people were left for maneuvering.
I asked the sentry to wake me up at three o'clock in the morning, and if there was someone else in the supermarket, we would have quickened up a little faster and be able to get to the supermarket by four o'clock in the morning, which is the most difficult time for us to move.
"Pack your weapons and gear and go." When the time came, I said to the ten people in front of me.
"Wu Jun, you have followed me to survey the terrain, you stay to manage the team, and you are ready to drive to meet us at any time." Before leaving, I said to Wu Jun.
Eleven of us and a dog, trotting towards the city, Long Jiu and I ran in front, this road we are more familiar with than anyone else, Wang Qiang followed at the end of the team, in order to deal with emergencies, because I was worried that there were people in the supermarket, I was reluctant to let Xiao Huang explore the way.
In less than an hour, we came to the vicinity of the supermarket, I still decided to sneak in from the supermarket, this time I brought some more arrows, just in order to be able to fight quickly, the zombies in the distance were solved by me and Wang Qiang with bows and arrows, and the nearby ones were handed over to the brothers, although Wang Qiang's archery skills were not as good as Xiaoyu, but it was no problem to shoot zombies at this distance.
It seems that after going back, we still have to pay attention to the production of weapons, train everyone to use bows and arrows, always close combat is always too risky, although this is a basic skill that must be mastered, but it is enough to master it, and the most important thing is to ensure the safety of personnel.
We came to the back door under the water pipe as usual, climbed to the roof of the supermarket one by one, and quietly sneaked into the supermarket to search around, there were no ghosts in the supermarket, and the materials were also intact in place.
"Wu Jun, enter the city and drive the car directly to the underground parking lot of the supermarket." I took out the walkie-talkie and said.
"Roger." Wu Jun said.
"Turn on the flashlight, work in pairs, and start moving things." I said to the crowd.
"Yes." The crowd replied.
Everyone went to the underground parking lot to carry supplies, and I came to the gate of the underground parking lot, observing the surrounding situation, and it didn't take long for the convoy to appear in my line of sight, Wu Jun was also more experienced, and when he was close to the city, he commanded the convoy to slow down and turn off the lights, and move forward by the moonlight.
All the personnel arrived, fourteen trucks lined up in the underground parking lot, everyone worked hard to carry supplies to the car, I came to the door of the underground parking lot, lit a cigarette for the brothers to sentry, Xiao Huang ran directly to the food area, I don't know what to look for to eat.
It wasn't until six o'clock in the afternoon that the fourteen trucks were loaded, although everyone also rested a few times in the middle, but there were too many things, everyone was really tired, even so, there was still more than half of the supplies in the supermarket, but now the rest are some dispensable things, and our task this time is half completed.
"Brothers have worked hard, today I will have a good night's rest here, eat whatever you want, drink whatever you want, but you still have to leave ten people to sentry, I will come first at the first sentry, two hours later two people will change me, and we will return tomorrow morning." I said to the crowd.
In the surprised eyes of everyone, I walked towards the roof of the supermarket, although I was lazy and didn't move things, but I can still make a contribution to the sentry, if I don't do anything, the brothers should have opinions, I took the initiative to stand sentry, which can be regarded as a sentry to win people's hearts.
It's not dark yet, and everything around me can't escape my eyes, and the situation in this city is indeed much better than before, but unfortunately we are understaffed, and there are not enough cars, and everyone is really tired, otherwise we can definitely find a lot of good things in this city, and it seems that we still have to continue to grow the team.
Two hours passed quickly, and the two brothers came to exchange for me with weapons and binoculars, and indeed as I thought, the fact that I took the initiative to stand guard made everyone admire me a little more.
Anyway, I'm not tired, I came to the women's clothing store that Xiaoyu and Ruonan liked before, I told the brothers not to move in this store, I kept in mind the size of the three wives, according to their clothing taste, I directly picked out three bags of clothes and threw them on the command car.
At this time, it was already late at night, and the brothers who had been tired for a day had already gone to sleep, it was really a trouble to pick clothes, and it was also a trouble to have many wives, and they had to have a bag for each person, otherwise they would have to quarrel again.
After thinking about it, I came to the jewelry store again and picked out some jewelry, and then the jewelry store, the watch store, the shoe store, and the trunk of the command car couldn't fit in, and it was dawn at this time, which really hurt me.
