Chapter 47: A New Goal
Due to the delay in voting, most of the morning has passed. Under the command of Chu Zhaonan, everyone had a hasty meal, and then began to get busy again.
Like yesterday, Zhang Long and Cui Shu each led a search convoy to set off, and today the search scope will be further expanded, and women have been added to the team, I don't know if this method is used to counter Niu Meng's "woman uselessness theory".
Other people also have their own division of labor, and even yesterday's victim Su Qiaoyi also arranged work. On the contrary, Zhang Zifeng and the other four people have become the most idle-Chu Zhaonan's power does not cover the direct subordinates of the big boss.
Seeing the search team leave, Zhang Zifeng was thoughtful.
Niu Meng's departure did not bring everyone a happy feeling, but made everyone become preoccupied.
Although the others are gone, the words spoken are clearly heard by everyone. In particular, there are eight people who disagree with him leaving, doesn't it mean that they agree with Niu Meng's theory? In other words, not satisfied with the way the team is currently managed, these potential risks will one day explode.
After arranging everything, Chu Zhaonan walked over to Zhang Zifeng, his face not looking very good. In fact, he hasn't seen a smile on his face since he came out of the chicken farm. Even leading a small group of more than thirty people is not an easy task.
When Zhang Zifeng saw his appearance, he suddenly had an illusion: he was the most powerful person to speak, and an important reason for authorizing Chu Zhaonan to manage the survivor team was to let everyone "voluntarily" supply their own blood, so what was the difference between Qiao Sen and Niu Tiancong's relationship?
These days, some blood bags have been quietly sent to the small courtyard - for this kind of thing, everyone has tacitly chosen to keep a low profile, which is enough for Zhang Zifeng to drink for a while.
Now Chu Zhaonan's face is ugly, it can't be because there is one less person who can draw blood.
"Is it really okay?" Zhang Zifeng pointed to the distant search team and said, "I don't think everyone's interest is high, so there won't be any chaos if you send it out like this." ”
Chu Zhaonan waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, Zhang Long and Cui Shu will restrain them." And it is precisely because everyone has something on their minds that they must find something to do, so that they have no time to think. Once people are idle, they will think crankily and do some messy things. ”
Zhang Zifeng is right to think about it. If it weren't for the relaxation of yesterday's ball, there would have been no bullish incident at all.
Chu Zhaonan continued: "Regarding Niu Meng's matter, there are more than 30 of us in total, and the loss of him, a sturdy man, is definitely a loss, but it is also something that cannot be helped. If he doesn't leave, the women led by Xu Hong will definitely shake their morale, and it is likely to cause a big split. The lesser of the two powers is the only way to do this. ”
Is this a debriefing? Why do you feel that Chu Zhaonan feels a little self-blamed? Zhang Zifeng hurriedly said: "I understand. ”
He changed his words and said, "I have a suggestion, now that everyone gets along together, there are no clear rules, and they act casually. Is it clear that some things that must not be done, such as not harming compatriots, not being too selfish, not cooperating with the chosen one, etc., and then matching the corresponding punishment methods, so that it is clear and clear, and it can also give a strong deterrent to those who plan to do wrong. ”
In the final analysis, Zhang Zifeng still has some mind about losing someone. He believed that if Niu Meng knew in advance that this would be the end, he should have dispelled the idea of insulting Su Qiaoyi.
Chu Zhaonan smiled bitterly and said, "How can it be clear, is it like the previous legal provisions, one, two, three, four are written clearly?" ”
"It's a good idea." Zhang Zifeng said.
Chu Zhaonan shook his head and said, "This is not easy to do. The rules are simple, there must be omissions, and in the end it becomes a matter of discussion; If we want to make it complete, there are more than 30 of us in total, and we have to eat and guard against zombies, where do we have the energy to fix these things. ”
He paused for a moment, then continued: "And the most important point is that the previous law worked because there was a strong enforcement department of the public procuratorate. Now that these don't exist, what's the use of making rules? ”
"Isn't it me?" Zhang Zifeng said. He is confident in his current position in everyone's minds. "You're in charge of making the rules, and I'll take care of it."
Chu Zhaonan laughed again and said, "You are indeed in a transcendent position, so why bother making rules, what you say is the rules, is there anyone who wants to resist?" ”
Zhang Zifeng was stunned for a moment, thinking about it, this is really the case. Only you can control the field, and even if the specific rules are formulated, it will reflect your own will - this is exactly the same logic as Qiao Sen in the chicken farm.
Chu Zhaonan continued: "And everyone's thoughts are also changing at any time. I believe that when a problem arises, it is the most efficient and least controversial way to discuss specific issues like today. People are separated from each other, we can't make everyone satisfied, like now, to become a complete organization, with a certain combat effectiveness and execution, is already a victory. ”
Zhang Zifeng nodded, Chu Zhaonan's age and experience are stronger than himself, and he can see problems more deeply. It is a good choice to interfere with daily decision-making as little as possible and let him take care of it. ”
"By the way, there's one more thing." Zhang Zifeng told Chu Zhaonan about the situation of the corpse tide. After weighing it repeatedly, he believed that Chu Zhaonan, as the supreme leader of the team, should have some understanding of the outside to avoid major mistakes in decision-making.
Not seeing the surprised expression in his imagination, Chu Zhaonan laughed self-deprecatingly and said, "None of this matters. Now the strength of this team is still very weak, if there is another Qiao Sen, if you don't make a move, we will also be caught back in the chicken farm and become a meal on the plate. What does it matter if it is replaced by such a powerful corpse tide? The ending is the same anyway. Much of our survival is a matter of luck. Of course, the main thing is your protection. ”
Niu Meng was actually not afraid of leaving this group, but leaving Zhang Zifeng.
"Isn't there a gun?" Zhang Zifeng said. Zhang Long's steel gun was quite powerful, even if it was a mutated cellar zombie, two shots could be solved.
"The power of the gun is really good, but what about the bullet? There were a total of five rounds of ammunition in that gun, one of which was used up in the earlier experiment, and two more rounds were consumed to fight zombies, and now there are actually only two rounds left, and there is no source of supply. Zhang Long looks majestic with a gun on his back, but in fact he is strong on the outside and dry in the middle. As for the shotgun in Zhao Hu's hand, in addition to the lack of bullets, there is also the problem of insufficient power. Two guns are more just a little more reassuring to everyone. ”
As the supreme leader, Zhang Long's true situation was no secret to Chu Zhaonan. Although the two people sometimes have some differences in philosophy, as influential people, it is more of a partnership.
"What about Molotov cocktails? It seems that the last experiment worked well. ”
"That thing is also very limited. It needs oil, and it is needed for driving and power generation, and it is a scarce material; It can't be made in large quantities for later use, it is too dangerous, and it will spontaneously combust or even explode if you are not careful. Another disadvantage is that the throwing distance is too close and prone to accidents. ”
Zhang Zifeng remembered the situation during the training, the burning zombies rushed into the crowd, if he hadn't shot in time, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Chu Zhaonan said: "It's not realistic to rely on cars alone. The fundamental way out for us to survive is to expand the scale, unite more survivors, and gain capital to fight zombies. ”
Zhang Zifeng was silent. Not only did he find more people, but he also left one today, no wonder Chu Zhaonan was so depressed.
"We can't hide in this village for a lifetime, especially when you just said the formation of the corpse tide, the zombies are not only becoming stronger and stronger, but also more organized, bursting out with powerful combat power, our threat is increasing day by day, and if we don't advance against the current, we will retreat! And living in this small place all the time will wear down everyone's fighting spirit, and it is inevitable that more events like today's will occur. It can be seen that Chu Zhaonan regrets organizing last night's dance very much, especially wine, which can be fun or bad.
"So I don't think I'll spend the winter here, and after a few days, when we are almost ready, we will organize a convoy to leave, find people, find food, find weapons, and gain the ability to gain a foothold in this world as soon as possible!"
The more Chu Zhaonan spoke, the more excited he became, which made Zhang Zifeng surprised for a while, it was rare to see him so impassioned and steady, and even his own emotions were infected by him.
Chu Zhaonan's arm pointed to the southeast and said, "As far as I know, there is a military camp about a hundred kilometers away from here in that country, and I want to be our first destination. If you're lucky, you should be able to find enough weapons, and even better if you can even meet the surviving soldiers! ”
Zhang Zifeng hesitated in his heart, that direction was the location of Tang City where he had escaped. It sits between the village and the barracks, and a huge tide of corpses is heading towards it. If you walk straight over, you'll probably encounter a tide of corpses.
In fact, when he escaped with Xiong Xianming and Ren Fei, he knew the general direction of the barracks, but in the end he decided to move towards the countryside.
As if seeing Zhang Zifeng's worry, Chu Zhaonan said: "Of course we won't rush over directly, we will bypass densely populated places." It doesn't matter if the road is farther, it shouldn't take too much time to get around by car. "Dense crowding means that there are a lot of zombies, and the danger level will rise dramatically.
Chu Zhaonan said as he took out a map from his arms, on which the route of the convoy had been marked. Obviously, this idea was not immediate.
"It's all up to you." Zhang Zifeng said. Chu Zhaonan has thought about it in such detail, what else is he doing? He continued: "I just want to know, when will we be ready to leave for the barracks?" ”
Chu Zhaonan said meaningfully: "It is impossible to be perfectly prepared at any time, but we can't delay any longer." In three days at most, we'll go! ”
Right here, there were two crisp sounds of "pop-" in the distance, making the faces of the two people change at the same time.
Although the sound was not loud, it was still possible to distinguish that it was the sound of Zhang Long's steel gun. A few days ago, he had shot and killed a cellar zombie under the noses of two people.
The only two remaining bullets have been used up, and Zhang Long's side is obviously in danger!
