Chapter 25: Guo Rong Disappears
Because of the previous gunshots, the zombies in the vicinity were attracted. Seeing that the zombies were slowly gathering towards the park, Zhang Zhao beckoned Guo Rong and Lu Yang and hurriedly rode away.
In this city, there are still many survivors, some who organize people to help each other, and ordinary small teams like themselves who are trying to survive. There are even more like rotten oranges, who take the opportunity to be evil. Perhaps, Rotten Orange would choose such a place on the outskirts of the city to do this kind of thing, just because he was afraid that the other survivor teams would see it. Discarding the elderly, for them, means discarding some people who have no labor force and combat effectiveness, and never relieving the burden of food consumption. The most tragic side of the apocalypse, as in many novels and TV dramas.
Soon, the three of them returned to the mall. As soon as he entered the door, Guo Rong dropped his backpack and hurriedly went upstairs. Everyone looked at each other, not knowing what was happening.
Zhang Zhao roughly told everyone about the things he encountered along the way, as well as what the Rotten Orange gang did. The faces of all the women turned pale with fright, and even people like Donna frowned, showing a little anger.
Although Guo Rong has a wild temperament, he is also short-tempered. But in his heart, he is actually a very kind person. Seeing this kind of thing, he has undoubtedly broken through the last bottom line in his heart, and if he has this ability, he may kill that group of beasts on the spot.
This incident also reminds everyone that no matter where you are, you can't completely relax, and you should always be vigilant. In this man's team, there were only four men and seven women among the adults. Zhang Zhao suggested that every woman should wear her hair tied up and a hat. Don't let outsiders see that most of your team are women. Otherwise, it is inevitable that there will be people with evil intentions who will beat the idea of their own group.
And every team should have a mature and stable leader who can think things through. Although everyone has always regarded Zhang Zhao silently as a leader. But he knew in his heart that he was not a qualified leader. After Zhang Zhao's proposal and everyone's voting, Li Zijing was officially elected as the captain and Zhang Zhao as the vice captain.
And in the team, the division of labor of each person is also clear. Zhang Zhao, Li Zijing, Lu Yang, Guo Rong, and four men are mobile personnel. That is, in addition to fighting, collecting supplies and vigils, everything else must be helped, depending on the situation. Song Qing, Han Yue, and Li Yan are logistics personnel, responsible for material sorting and food arrangement. He Miaomiao, Qianqian, and Konishi formed an auxiliary combat team, which was temporarily led and trained by Donna.
Because, when they arrived at the camp in the East China Sea Islands, Donna would be separated from them, and there was no need to plan her for the time being. Donna, an active regular soldier, should be the most combat-ready in the entire team, and she still needs to deal with many things. During the time he was in the camp in the East China Sea Islands, Zhang Zhao didn't ask Donna to train the few of them to be fierce characters like the knife girl in the walking dead, at least to be able to protect himself in times of crisis.
Assisting the combat squad means that they don't have to worry about things like lighting a fire and cooking every day. At first, He Miaomiao was not very happy, but after Zhang Zhao's persuasion with an incorruptible tongue, she gladly accepted it. Zhang Zhao couldn't figure it out, doing housework, even before the end of the world, most of the men and women were reluctant to do it. Why after the apocalypse, it has become a hot job.
To capture a man's heart, you must first take care of his stomach. At least that's what Li Yan thought, and when she was arranged as the team leader of the logistics team, she was happy to blossom. After the meeting, there were good conductors Song Qing and Han Yue to sort out the materials, and she herself was extremely diligent.
And right now, in addition to the problem of going out of the city, there is also the problem of food. The most important thing is weapons. Seeing that the team of more than 100 people in Rotten Orange had so many hot weapons today, Zhang Zhao was anxious and afraid. Now in his own ranks, there are not even decent guns. In addition to himself, there are also Guo Rong and Li Zijing who have sharp knives, and the rest of the people almost use whatever they get.
When he was in N City before, Zhang Zhao gave Song Qing and Han Yue a short katana each, but all along, the two didn't pay much attention to it, and almost always put it in the car. And Li Yan has a short dagger, which can barely be used when encountering a small number of zombies. If you encounter other situations, you can't actually deal with them.
Sternly reminded Song Qing and Han Yue that in any situation, even when sleeping, they should carry a katana with them. Li Yan did this much better than the two of them, and for convenience, she kept tying the long dagger to her right leg. It's not a way to get the weapons that are separated, everyone needs them. Zhang Zhao gave his dagger to Lu Yang, plus the baseball bat he found himself, which could barely be used.
The best cold weapon against zombies is lightweight, sharp, and durable. It's best to kill a zombie with one hit, either by piercing his head or cutting off his head. Only these two actions can make zombies die in an instant. Like axes, shovels, and all kinds of domineering weapons, although they seem to be extremely lethal, they consume a lot of physical strength. And it's not very convenient to use and carry. For example, if you finally slash the zombie's body with an axe, and finally find that the axe can't be pulled out in time, then, the next second, you will become food for the zombie.
Fortunately, these weapons that Zhang Zhao found were all of the highest quality. In all respects, it almost surpasses military knives. This is also a craft that has been passed down for thousands of years, and it is not in vain.
Although cold weapons are the best life-saving weapons, who doesn't want a few firearms that can take the head of a zombie from hundreds of meters or kilometers away? With powerful firearms, you don't need to get close to zombies at all. Whether it's breaking through or defending, it's all very effective. It also greatly improves the safety of people, if you can fight, you can fight, if you can't fight, you can escape, with the knife to use, when you encounter ordinary zombies, you don't need to worry too much at all.
In close combat, any miss can be fatal. Just like Zhang Zhao cut off half of the head of a zombie some time ago, but he didn't expect it to be completely dead. The zombie who lost half of his head pounced on his body by inertia, fortunately Guo Rong made up for it in time, otherwise that time, he would definitely not be able to escape the mouth of the zombie.
Now in the entire team, except for Li Zijing, who has an air gun, there is only Donna's invincible weapon-Type 33 assault gun. But her gun requires identity fingerprint verification. Unless you go to the complicated unlocking and re-entry, even if you give it to you, you can't use it.
All afternoon, Zhang Zhao thought about it. Rotten Orange's powerful spear team has been hovering in his head. If you want to survive in the apocalyptic world, it is not only a struggle between humans and zombies, but also a competition between people. Resources are only going to get dwindle, and there are scrambles all over the world every day. So, you have to make yourself strong and make the whole team strong.
This world, under the rule of man, lasted for thousands of years. And today, 80% of the world's 10 billion people are either dead or turned into zombies. This will only continue. The only thing that should be fortunate is that after the continuous resistance of human beings, there will be fewer and fewer zombies. Although the remaining humans are likely to produce death and be transformed into zombies. But as long as we persevere, humanity can still reproduce and rebuild the human world. As for zombies, although the virus can spread, the good thing is that zombies can't reproduce in other ways.
Seeing the tragic scene during the day today, everyone's mood was relatively heavy. Guo Rong, who is usually active, also ran upstairs alone to rest after dinner. Han Yue wanted to try to comfort him, but Guo Rong only said a few words intentionally or unintentionally.
The small meeting at night, only Guo Rong is missing. Others don't know his character, but Zhang Zhao still does. Don't look at Guo Rong's usual grinning and crazy madness, in fact, he still has an emotional side in his heart. To put it bluntly, the heart is relatively straight, and whoever is good to him, he will be good to whom. Whoever makes him unhappy, he will not swallow his anger.
The cigarettes he had collected before were almost exhausted, so Zhang Zhao took out half of the cigarettes he had smoked after the meal very economically, lit them and took a deep breath. Since there was no entertainment, the nights were still relatively empty, except for the occasional chat, basically sleeping.
For today's yes, it is just a mention, and saying too much will have an impact on everyone's mood. Zhang Zhao told him about what he was thinking about this afternoon, that is, the issue of armament. It's not enough to have cold weapons, the world in reality is more cruel than in film and television dramas. In the entire team, only Donna drinks Li Zijing who really knows how to use firearms, so I still have to listen to their opinions more.
"Zhang Zhao is right, without thermal weapons, if we are surrounded by a large group of zombies, we will not have any life at all. The situation with firearms in China is different from that in foreign countries, and it is impossible for ordinary people to have such things in their homes. This journey to the East China Sea Islands is a dangerous road, not only will you encounter zombies, but you may also encounter guys like Rotten Orange. Zombies are not afraid, we can hide, we can escape, but people are still extremely dangerous. Li Zijing frowned.
Since being rescued by Zhang Zhao and Guo Rong, he and Linlin have been able to be here completely at this time, and this matter has always maintained the psychology of repaying gratitude in his heart. Although he was elected captain, it did not make him forget what he should do. In his opinion, the identity of the leader was also given to him by Zhang Zhao. Li Zijing, who has a great sense of responsibility, will be very thoughtful about everything.
He continued: "It seems that there are still some people who have obtained weapons through certain channels. But where do we go to find such things? "That's the point, and no matter how much you think about it, it's useless to have no resources.
Everyone turned their attention to Donna, who was a member of the Global Security Alliance, and had some solutions. The tacit understanding between Zhang Zhao and Li Zijing had just formed, and the two inadvertently looked at each other and smiled.
Donna saw that everyone was looking at her, and these two guys took a big circle of questions and finally threw them at her. In desperation, she said: "You see that I am useless, guns are available in every police station, every unit has them, and after the catastrophic destruction, there may not be a single bullet left." ”
Zhang Zhao smiled: "Team Tang, you must have a way." Don't you have the most advanced weapons and technology, how can you not get a few guns? ”
Donna definitely knows where to get weapons, but these secret locations require a certain level to know. At this point, Zhang Zhao is completely sure. His father was also a member of the Global Security Alliance, and so was Li Zijing. Although Li Zijing was only a small soldier before, he still knew some of the secrets. It was also what he and Zhang Zhao said, about the secret location of the Security Alliance. The two of them deliberately did not focus on the matter of mentioning firearms, and every member of the team signed a confidentiality agreement, which may also be the reason why Donna deliberately played Tai Chi.
Seeing that Donna is very determined, it is estimated that she will not let go easily. Zhang Zhao said solemnly: "Team Tang, now is not a matter of secrecy or secrecy, your institution is in danger, haven't you thought about it, if one day the security alliance can't hold on, then how can we ordinary people survive." The focus now is not on ourselves, but on the survival of humanity. Now that you are here, will we be able to reach the East China Sea Islands safely by your ability alone? Those guys in Rotten Orange today, the people who just went out, are dozens of guns, and those who are in the camp? There may be hundreds. If we meet such people, we don't even have a chance to resist. ”
The more he talked, the more angry he became, a person like Donna had very firm principles. Unlike other people who have been in the social ladder, the ability to adapt to problems is too different. Principle is a lethal factor.
Donna didn't respond positively, and the party ended in unhappiness. That night, Donna leaned on a recliner on the highest building, looked at the starlight through the roof, and thought about Zhang Zhao's words.
Early the next morning, Zhang Zhao got up early to exercise, and he couldn't go out, just trotting up and down in the mall.
"Strange, where's the pot?" went around the mall, but Guo Rong was never seen, this kid hadn't seen it since he had dinner last night.
"Have you seen Guo Rong?" Seeing that everyone was up, Zhang Zhao shouted upstairs.
"I didn't see it, what's wrong?"
"Not good! Something is going to happen. Zhang Zhao nervously ran down from the stairs and went to check the door. The doors are hidden, and there is one less electric car parked outside to charge.
