Chapter 55: Resistance
"Kill!"
In the face of the zombies surrounding the streets and alleys, everyone only had this simple but firm word in their hearts. In a world where humans and zombies are opposed, either you die or I die. They want to escape, and they have been fleeing, but now, the survivor camp in Five Rivers Town is their last retreat. There may be friends and family of some of them.
Most of the people who participated in the battle were young and middle-aged, and women, children, and the elderly had long since been moved to the roof of the hotel. The zombies were first attracted by the people standing on the eaves, stretching out their arms and roaring with their teeth open. Those standing on the roof, taking advantage of the geographical advantage, waved the sharpened bamboo poles in their hands and stabbed the zombies in the heads and chests.
The tall and emaciated man, Chen Hua, his eyes were like torches, he held the bamboo pole with both hands, squinted and aimed at a male zombie in uniform, he first took a deep breath, and then gathered his strength to poke down. The bamboo pole sank into the zombie's skin, and when it touched the bones, I felt a trace of resistance. He tried to pull the bamboo pole out again, but found that the zombie reached out and grabbed the bamboo pole. You must know that holding a bamboo pole of this length, and attacking zombies from top to bottom, it is not easy to grasp the accurate head.
The explosive power of the zombie is very strong, and when the zombie grabbed the bamboo pole, Chen Hua felt a force pulling. Do you let go or continue to tug of war with zombies? Although he was very thin, he had a lot of strength, and he gritted his teeth and decided to pull the bamboo pole back.
His pole pierced the zombie's chest, and the bamboo pole was fifty or sixty centimeters in, probably stuck by the zombie's ribs. There was a stalemate for more than twenty seconds, and the rod seemed to show no signs of being pulled out. Chen Hua suddenly became nervous, if he continued like this, he would probably lose this bamboo pole.
Just when Chen Hua was at a loss, suddenly there were two muffled noises around him, and two balls of black blood erupted on the zombie's chest, and the bamboo pole was also pulled out along the black blood.
A fat old man with gray hair nodded at him, and then took out two zombies with a gun.
"There's a gun!" Many people were attracted by this scene and looked this way. For ordinary people, firearms are undoubtedly a safer guarantee. There are guns in the camp of humanity, and more people are full of confidence.
The person who shot was Lao Wang, Wang Qiang. After the zombie attack, he and Zhang Zhao quickly joined the human battle camp. Lao Wang killed more than a dozen zombies in a row, and then said to Chen Hua: "I don't have many bullets, I'll cover you." ”
With Lao Wang's assistance from the side, Chen Hua's movements in his hands were more open, and in the face of the dense group of corpses, he no longer aimed and stabbed down indiscriminately. Then he called four or five people and stabbed at the zombies in an area. In this way, it seems that it will consume more physical strength, but in fact, it is much easier for individuals. Because it can be aimed, not only should the strength in the hand be grasped very well, but the bamboo pole should be stalemate to look for opportunities, which is also a kind of loss to the human spirit.
Those zombies who seemed to have more tenacious vitality were shot in the head by Lao Wang. More than an hour has passed, and more than 100 zombies have been lying at the entrance that Chen Hua and the others are sticking to. The corpses of zombies were piled up more than a meter high in the narrow alley.
The other entrances were in a similar situation, with waves of zombies attacking, most of them dying in the alley. Occasionally, those who rushed to the obstacle were also stabbed to death by the bamboo pole sticking out of it. Except for Lao Wang, the rest of Zhang Zhao's team basically couldn't help. They also only stood guard at the entrance, just in case a zombie broke through.
The battle lasted about three hours, and the power of the zombie attack gradually faded. Occasionally, three or five zombies would be accompanied by three or five zombies, trying to climb on the corpses of the same kind and climb over them, but they were also killed by the sharp bamboo poles that followed. The zombies in the dangerous area have been cleared, and the zombies in the alleys and streets are only a few wandering. Once the corpse group is destroyed, those scattered zombies will not be able to organize into an effective attack force at all.
Wang Ying came out of nowhere, his body was black and red zombie blood, he habitually raised his arm to smell it, and then said with a smile: "I'll just say, these zombies haven't come once or twice, except for the first few casualties, there are almost no injuries after that." ”
Chen Hua and Lao Wang also came down from the roof, the scale of the zombie attack today was much more intense than the last time, but overall, Chen Hua felt relaxed. "Wang Ying, the zombies have all retreated, it seems that this time, we can rest assured for a while." Generally, such a large-scale corpse attack will occur once in half a month or so.
Wang Ying is an optimist who immediately returns to his pre-battle state after a fierce battle. He nodded, "Well, organize the manpower and clean up the corpses of the zombies in the next few days to avoid other lesions." ”
After every zombie attack, some corpses are piled up outside the camp, and in such hot weather, the corpses are easy to rot and stink. After the zombie attack, there will still be many zombies lurking in the streets and alleys outside, in order to prevent zombie invasion when carrying the corpse, so it is necessary to observe for two to three days, and then make sure that there is no danger.
Today, Chen Hua's location was assisted by Lao Wang, allowing him to see the power of firearms up close. For a long time, firearms appeared in Rivers Town, except when the first rescue troops arrived. The survivors after that are all using the things they have in their hands as weapons. And that group of rescue troops, after holding out for three days, left in a hurry. They abandoned the town of Croiss, and they gave up the survivors who survived. But everyone knows that they paid a terrible price, and at that time they only held out for three days, and they were almost completely wiped out. The number of zombies is always more than that of humans, and under the overwhelming attacks again and again, the human body can no longer compete with the tireless zombies.
The number of zombies attacking is about five thousand, and every time they resist, they will leave behind seven or eight hundred zombie corpses. These zombies also need to be transported to a place far away from the center of the town. Now I don't care if it destroys the environment, all in all, the whole world has changed since the outbreak of the zombie virus.
Although Wang Ying is the temporary leader of the survivor camp in Five Rivers Town, unlike other camp leaders, he is personally considered for survivors, and he does the most dangerous and tiring work himself. Most of the survivors of Five Rivers also have a high regard for him. After explaining some things, Wang Ying led Zhang Zhao and them into the hotel.
The hotel is not big, with a cash register right in the middle of the entrance, two elevators on the right, and a secure passage and stairs on the left. There were twenty or thirty people gathered in the hall at this moment, each holding a variety of weapons in their hands, and when they saw Wang Ying coming in, they all greeted him warmly.
"I'll arrange accommodation for you first." Wang Ying talked to a young man at the cash register for a few words before turning around and saying, "At present, I can only vacate two standard rooms, you can see how to arrange it appropriately." ”
Zhang Zhao and the others have not had a good night's sleep since this time, and now they have a comfortable room and a soft bed, and they are relatively safe here, where will they be picky. Zhang Zhao said gratefully: "It's very satisfying to have a place to rest, thank you." ”
Donna, Anna Park and Li Zhizhi sleep in a standard room, which is relatively spacious. And Zhang Zhao, Guo Rong, Lu Yang, and Wang's father and son were crammed into one room, which was more crowded. I asked the person in charge of managing the hotel for a few quilts and spread them on the ground, which was finally more comfortable.
Now there are only Zhang Zhao and them in the room, Lao Wang saw that there was no one else in the corridor, so he returned to the room and said, "This place seems to be safe, but in fact, there are many hidden dangers. "After all, a city built of reinforced concrete has been attacked by zombies in a short period of time, and although the buildings here can also resist zombies, the biggest problem is resources. After all, there are more than a thousand survivors living in this crowded environment.
Wang Ying also regularly organizes people to go out to find food, but most of the shops in this town still sell handicrafts, unlike Pucheng Town, where there will be vegetable farms, grain and oil shops, etc. Some time ago, I could easily find food in the nearby streets, but slowly, every time I went out to search for resources, the things I brought back were in short supply. At present, the people in the camp do not have enough sense of crisis. Every time the zombies attacked, they always took advantage of the geographical advantage to win, and they did not suffer from hunger and fighting. Many people don't take being besieged by zombies yet, and they can easily be satisfied with just a little victory.
If one day, when the search party can no longer find food, more people will go hungry. People can do anything in a state of hunger and cold, and most of the changes in history are caused by the lack of food and clothing for the people.
Even if Lao Wang doesn't say it, many of the reasons for this are clear to everyone. Zhang Zhao lit a cigarette and looked at the busy crowd downstairs, "Wang Ying may not be unaware of these problems, but it seems that there is no better way at the moment, maybe it won't be long before the interior will fall apart without being surrounded by zombies." "I heard Wang Ying say that the courtyard was inhabited by local residents, and since Zhang Zhao and the others entered the camp, during this time, even if the zombies attacked in a big way, I didn't see them come out to help.
Sooner or later, there will be fierce battles between foreign and local survivors. It seems to be stable here, but in fact, if a camp is managed in such a way, there are no rules that say no one, and sooner or later it will be chaotic.
Everyone took out the food and were about to call Donna next door to come over and eat some together, when they heard someone in the corridor shouting, as if there was a heated argument.
"What happened?" Zhang Zhao took the lead in opening the door and walked out.
