Chapter 59: Moses the Woman of the East Verse 10
The red tide rushed from the horizon, and the boundless fiery red obscured the fields, the mountains, and the wooded slopes! Everywhere you look, there is a sea of red!
Countless mutated animals, large birds and wild birds panicked out of their hiding place, screaming like madness and running into the distance, the lucky ones could naturally escape the terrible predators behind them, but some of the unlucky ghosts only ran out of a dozen meters, and fell down with a wail, struggling and spasmodizing in pain on the ground, the death roar did not last long, before it died, crawling all over its body, two swarm of ants the size of a thumb were desperately biting every piece of flesh that had been intact on its body! Wave after wave of death, the tide of death crawled over the dead animals that had collapsed on the ant colony road, and it didn't take long for the bones to become the signposts for this sweeping army!
Liu Xuetang's distorted face is terrified, everyone knows the marching ants in the South American jungle, the animal world vividly shows the horror of their sweeping land to audiences all over the world, this time, Liu Xuetang is fortunate to witness a new round of wonders in the apocalypse on the land of Shenzhou - an almost endless, annihilating army composed of local mutant varieties of ants! Needless to say, the goal of this army must be Dongcheng District, R County!
was beaten countless times before, even if he was crying, Liu Xuetang didn't leave many tears, and this time, seeing the miserable end that his siblings were about to face, Liu Xuetang, this guy who can be called a tough guy, lost the last shred of reason, and cried like a child who lost his beloved toy!
"You can't do that.... I beg you... I... Please... You.... Those masses are innocent, let them live... Live... Go down... Go... You.. No... Yes, no..... can't ..... "sobbing and choking, Liu Xuetang snorted and cried, crying like an angry little daughter-in-law who has no pain and no one cares for her every day except for being beaten and scolded by her in-laws, he is a traditional, authentic Chinese, political differences can be put aside, but for the care of his own people, he is no worse than anyone else! "Venerable Holy Daughter... Please, open the net.... If you do this, it hurts heaven! With trembling hands pleading, the same sorrow stretched out to the hostess who was fearful, and every word Liu Xuetang confided carried a sense of mourning like cuckoo crying blood.
"Do you know why your organization lost the battle ahead?" The saint looked at the ant colony under her control, her heart was surging, how many days of planning, she worked hard to do everything herself, and now, it was finally time to reap the results she wanted.
Liu Xuetang raised his head tremblingly and looked at his heroine with scarlet eyes.
"You are too weak! You have no idea what kind of tyrant you are up against! Yang Feifei played with a huge object in his hand - a milky white head that was the size of a human head: "I begged that proud, arrogant, self-proclaimed chosen son, but he rejected me, as arrogant as ever, and no one in his eyes!" ”
Liu Xuetang was attracted by her rhetoric.
"He rejected my proposal in cold blood..."Yang Feifei continued to tell me: "What about you? By a righteous name? Successor to the state? Hehe, will he promise to let your declining organization take over? Just by virtue of the glory of the past? ”
Liu Xuetang pulled down his face, but he had no reason to refute.
"I have done everything that I have to do, and soon his people will persecute him, and his army will persecute him, and he will do what I ask!" "And all this is just the beginning!!!! ”
Liu Xuetang was stunned!
Panic was staged in R County, the attack of the ant colony came covertly without warning, in the east of the river, the people had already evacuated somewhere, because the wells on the flat land had long since dried up, and the river was almost cut off, it was normal, they all withdrew into the cool and comfortable Hexi Mountains - where there are a large number of karst caves and underground water sources, sufficient and cool! But where is a unit still stationed in the east of the river, the 5th garrison brigade!
To be exact, this is a battalion-level unit under the Fifth Garrison Brigade, with a small number of more than 300 people.
The arrival of the ant colony came almost without warning, but swift and unforgiving, and before the crowd even knew it was being attacked, the battalion was already in the middle of a sea of ant colonies!
Early in the morning, Tao Liang, the guy who had just become the platoon leader, climbed the high watchtower, to enjoy the rare cool in the morning, it is not surprising, under the hot sun for days, only a little breeze at midnight and in the morning also brings the pleasure of relieving the heat, he does not hurry up to blow for a while, waiting for the sun to rise three poles, and he does not dare to stay on the top of the fifteen-story building and wait to be exposed to dried fish.
"Tao Tou, are you up?" Lying on the ground softly, squinting at the guy who had just flashed the sun in the sky, he first noticed the arrival of his top boss, and a flattering smile appeared on his thin face: "Brothers have been bored for a night, just waiting for you to come to check the post!" ”
"It's hard work, there's no movement, right?" Walking around the fence, Tao Liang took out a few yellow sticks and threw them over.
The whole county of R was shrouded in the rising sun, quiet and peaceful, and the occasional hustle and bustle was just the sound of the soldiers who had just blown their bugles below.
"It's okay all night, you see, our realm is arranged like a spider's web, even if those cannibals come, they won't be pleased?" The soldier who took the cigarette pointed to the field below and looked at the past, because the millions of zombies in front of him went north, and several army leaders together arranged huge fortifications in the suburbs and urban areas of Hedong, and more than five trenches were dug in the trenches that were more than ten meters deep, all around the key points of the city. And those overlapping high and low floors are also all arranged according to the fortress level, with three layers of barbed wire inside and three layers outside, crash piles, and a large number of cement permanent fortresses without cost, and various load-bearing sandbag walls mixed with container wall panels. Finally, spike piles made of various materials - from scrap steel to ordinary wood, and even tempered glass have been cut into sharp shapes and arranged in front of various positions as passive damage barriers, so as to wear down the forces of the invading enemy.
Overall, when you look at it from a high place, the entire Hedong area is like a huge hedgehog, and your eyes hurt just by looking at it!
Even Yan Wanshan, the original military advisor, couldn't help but nod his head after looking at this "Maginot Line" comparable to the new century: "I am the commander of the zombies, and I will choose to take a detour!" It's too much to lose by capturing here! ”
Tao Liang, who nodded, also lit a cigarette and enjoyed it leisurely for a while, and suddenly, his attention was attracted by a puff of smoke and dust in the distance, which was flying up, but with a slightly unsettling scene, when did the soldiers of the cavalry company hesitate to do so? Hearing the commander's surprised voice, with doubts, several soldiers who had been lying on the ground for a short rest jumped up, dressed up, picked up their weapons, and ran to their platoon commanders to watch together.
Visually, this group of guys flying the banner of the R County cavalry about two miles away from here are indeed their own people, why do they run like they are being chased by a group of mad dogs? Have you ever seen them whip their horses so ferociously? Usually, this group of cavalry doesn't spoil their war horses like their own wives, and they take them out to the river every once in a while to wash them! Now it seems that the frequency of whipping is not a joke, coupled with the urging of the horse's special foot object - the spur, the white foam in the mouths of those tall war horses is already faintly visible in the telescope, and even the white mist of their jets is extremely rapid!
Tao Liang wiped his eyes, as if he couldn't believe it, he continued to stare at the telescope for a while, and suddenly, his face became extremely pale! He saw clearly something that made him tremble so that his hands and feet were cold, among the cavalry who were galloping wildly, one of the fastest horses didn't know if it was because of the loss of strength or for some reason, and suddenly fell to the ground, throwing the soldiers on his body far away, and the other cavalry didn't even seem to have the kung fu to take a look back, so they rushed straight through! The fallen war horse screamed, its front hooves were probably broken, and it couldn't stand up immediately, but the fallen warrior quickly came to his senses, and even ran forward a few steps with a roll, but after he heard the wailing of his beloved horse, he only hesitated slightly, and immediately turned around and ran back, trying to pull his war horse!
When a man and a horse were trying to stand up, a red ant colony like an angry wave appeared less than 100 meters behind them! Tao Liang and the soldiers standing guard all looked at this terrifying scene in amazement, no one thought of what to do, they were already completely attracted by the fate that this cavalry in front of them was about to face!
"Damn it, go, go! Ignore it, let's go! The shouts of the soldiers on duty on the upper floors set off a chain reaction, and the sleepy-eyed warriors on all floors paid attention, and soon the sight of the unfortunate cavalry was seen by all the soldiers on high ground! The shouts of hundreds of people were unanimous: "Let's go!! Ignore it!! Come on!! "This wave of voices is so anxious, so uniform, the actions of an ordinary soldier have touched the hearts of thousands of comrades!
The mutated horse weighs more than a ton and a half, and no warrior can lift it up on his own!
In the time they worked hard, the ant colony was already approaching fifty meters!
Under the concerned gaze of the crowd, the cavalryman made a distressing but helpless move. He hugged the horse's head tightly, gently rubbed its neck for a while, and his mouth seemed to be whispering something, and finally, after the warrior looked at it affectionately, he released the belt of the riding gun behind his back, and aimed five or six semi-automatic at the forehead of the horse! All the warriors could not bear to see this sad scene, the cavalry did not cut the horses, and the warriors did not kill the military dogs....... In the past, no one could afford to fight with his comrades, but now it is different, rather than let it be devoured by thousands of ants and die in great pain, it is better to give it a good time!
The cavalryman turned his head and pulled the trigger! A long gunshot rang out in the wasteland, taking away a good comrade-in-arms who was loyal and always believed in his master,
The galloping horses in front of them heard the gunshots, and the other horse turned its head, and a few scurriers quickly came to the side of the cavalryman who had killed their mount, and extended a helping hand.
Although reluctant, but the ant colony was one step closer, without the slightest hesitation, the cavalryman turned over on the mount of his comrade, one horse and two people, and sped away from the bleeding horse! In a short time, at a speed visible to the naked eye, countless red ant tides covered the boundary.
"Ant colony! Ant colony! The terrible shouts finally broke out in the crowd, and the eastern "Maginot Line", which even zombies could not break, completely fell in less than ten minutes!
The cavalry group did not directly enter the fortress block, they ran straight to the north, and behind them, there was a terrible roar! The ant colony seems to smell their favorite thing – flesh and blood! Speeding up, they quickly easily crossed the seemingly complicated fortifications, and one by one poured in and surrounded the humans who were still guarding inside!
The Yakovs who received the report happened to be near the bridgehead to the west of the river, and when he ordered all the fighters to evacuate east of the river, he saw that the bridge was already crowded with fighters of the 5th Garrison Brigade who were fleeing for their lives! All the personnel are pushed and shoved, completely ignoring the feelings of the original comrades-in-arms, some red-eyed guys even began to shoot the personnel in front of them, and the others who arrived later were also firmly dominated by the fear of death, scrambling to squeeze onto the only road that could survive - the bridge! The roars of the raging gunfire, the shouts of the fratricidal warriors, the screams and groans of the dying fallen on the ground, all filled this small territory, and the order of the soldiers was gone in front of this frightened army!
The red wave is imminent, followed by these soldiers who have lost their fighting spirit is an army of terrible little reptiles, looking at the ant colonies that are more efficient than zombies gathered on the opposite high-rise buildings and roads, Yakov is like falling into the freezing point! Why, why is this the case, veterans are so unlucky every time, always encountering these natural disasters that cannot be stopped by human beings?
The staff officers next to him were also all colorless, and their experience was no richer than that of veterans, and this situation was beyond the scope of their imagination.
There are at least a thousand soldiers who are congested there, and if they can't properly restore order, it is estimated that none of them will be able to get out of danger! Yakov's face was red, if those soldiers were allowed to come, the ant colony would definitely be able to catch up with them and come together in the crowd! There are still nearly 10,000 people in the east of the river who have not entered the mountains, once the ant colony is allowed to come, these old and weak women and children will not be able to move as quickly as soldiers to get rid of it, in the choice between life and death, Yakov has figured it out!
With a resolute iron-blue face, he decisively walked to the guards guarding the bridgehead in Hexi, and gave an order that he had never issued in his life: "Immediately pull the drawbridge!" Abandon all fighters who try to cross the bridge....."
