“…… At 9 o'clock yesterday morning, the newly formed Second Air Assault Battalion of the People's Liberation Army (PLA) landed at Xi'an Xianyang International Airport. After six hours of fierce fighting, the airfield was successfully controlled. As soon as the battle ended, the unit immediately dispatched helicopters to carry out search and rescue work near the airport, and rescued 14 trapped people on the same day. Here's what the reporter just sent back. ”

Xiao Lin and I glanced at each other, and we both saw a look of joy in each other's eyes———— sure enough, there were still troops left, and they had already begun a counterattack.

"How many people are in a battalion?" I couldn't help but ask Xiao Lin.

"Four or five hundred!"

I'm slightly disappointed, there are thousands of zombies at every turn, and four or five hundred people are so good to do!

The following is a conversation between the reporter and several people who have just been rescued, who have just been rescued and are terrified, and who are still a little stumbling in the face of the reporter's questions, but they are all vying to express their gratitude. I envy them from the bottom of my heart, they have attained true security; With the protection of regular troops, you don't have to be afraid of zombies anymore. How glad I would be if there was a helicopter here at this time!

Finally, the commander of the unit made a speech, saying that the success of this operation fully proved that the "leapfrog" tactic was feasible and would continue to be used in the future. And said on the spot: Tomorrow the follow-up troops and a large number of supplies will arrive one after another, and the search area will be expanded at that time, and strive to rescue all the trapped people within a radius of 200 kilometers.

"What is a 'frog jump'?" I asked Xiao Lin again.

Xiao Lin really knew: "The 'frog jump' tactic is the predecessor of non-linear warfare, and it is a tactic used by the US military in the Pacific theater during World War II. After the surprise attack on Pearl Harbor, Japan occupied thousands of islands in the Pacific Ocean, and if the US military regained them one by one, it would pay a huge price. Therefore, when the US forces counterattacked, the commander-in-chief, General MacArthur, proposed the 'leapfrog' tactic: only select some strategically important islands, build airfields on them after capturing them, and use fighter planes to suppress the Japanese troops on the nearby islands; This tactic is like a frog jump, so it is called a 'frog jump'. This tactic greatly accelerated the process of ending the Pacific War. ”

"I see!" I understood: the military must have wanted to take control of the airfield first, and then send helicopters to rescue the survivors who had not yet reached the safe zone! This method is good, avoiding confrontation with large-scale zombies, and saving a lot of manpower and material resources to concentrate on saving people. If they control all the airports in the country, it doesn't matter if they can't get rid of all the zombies at once. As long as the trapped people are rescued first, it will be completed, and it will take some time for the 1.3 billion zombies to be wiped out.

There was a map of China on the wall, and I walked over to it and quickly found Xi'an: the journey was a third shorter than going to Lanzhou. Great, if they continue to "frog jump", maybe they won't even have to go to Xi'an.

After the news was over, it was music time, and the radio was filled with melodious piano music, Beethoven's "To Alice". The notes, like cute elves, slip through the deepest part of people's hearts playfully, making people's hearts flutter with them, as if bringing people back to the era before the outbreak of the virus. Xiao Lin put the radio in the pocket of her combat vest and prepared to continue her search. I asked, "Isn't there a radio on the car, why didn't I see you listening?" ”

Xiao Lin replied: "The radio on Wuling has long been broken, and the Volkswagen has also broken down, probably crashed!" "The fourth floor is the president's office, the fifth floor is the gym, and the sixth floor is nothing. We continued our search, but unfortunately we never found anything too useful.

The radio is constantly imparting information about survival in the wild, such as how to make bows and arrows or spears for self-defense, how to identify edible plants in the wild, how to catch fish and shrimp, and how to dig traps. There is also about zombies, those terrains are easy to get rid of them, how to save yourself when you are trapped. As for how to set up a temporary safe zone, what impressed me the most was the establishment of a crematorium: a rectangular wall next to the safe zone with a gate, open the gate to bring in the zombies, and try to close the gate when the zombies are full. Then a fire burned all the zombies inside. This is said to be the most economical and efficient way to get rid of zombies.

Sometimes there are other things on the radio: the situation in the rear, motivational speeches, beautiful concerts, and funny cross talk sketches from the past. In short, it keeps sending us a message———— don't give up, we will save you sooner or later.

With food, cars, and the news that troops were moving eastward, Xiao Lin and I were greatly confident. happily returned to the first floor with the materials he found, rested on the bed in the dormitory of the law hall, and returned to the outpost as soon as the zombies on the highway passed. Then we will set out on the road to Xi'an Airport!

Lying on the bed, eating biscuits, bread and ham, drinking milk, Xiao Lin also drank a little wine! Compared to yesterday, today is really a heaven and an earth. The only fly in the ointment is that there are more and more zombies standing outside the gate and not leaving.

It shouldn't have been on the first floor, but here you can only see the zombies at the gate who can't leave, and you can't monitor the surrounding situation, let alone look into the distance. But only on the first floor there were a few beds in the dormitory, and Xiao Lin and I were still willing to lie on the beds. So it was agreed that every hour, go upstairs to make rounds.

The radio was on all the time, but there was no news to broadcast, so Xiao Lin got up and said, "The battery is limited." "Click" to turn off the radio.

"Hey, what are you doing? I need to learn something! "I protested that the radio was teaching the art of digging traps to catch wild beasts.

Xiao Lin lay on the bed opposite her and said, "I will know these things, and I will teach you when I go back, which is much more detailed than what I said above, and they didn't talk about many methods." She folded her hands behind her head and stretched out a big lazy waist, and the two peaks pointed defiantly to the sky, holding her black shirt tightly.

I asked, "Who did you learn this skill from?" As if you won't! "Except in the movie, I have never seen someone as powerful as Xiao Lin, she is a fan to me.

"My father taught me something." Xiao Lin replied briefly.

I turned over and looked at Xiao Lin and asked, "What does he do, he must be a very powerful person, right?" ”

"He's in the business of intelligence." Xiao Lin replied.

It turned out to be a 007! My heart was lifted, this kind of work is very mysterious to us ordinary people, so I want to know more about it. "Where is he now?" As soon as the words came out, I regretted it, now that the environment is sinister, judging by the probability, Xiao Lin's father should also be more auspicious, wouldn't asking such a question arouse her sadness.

But Xiao Lin was very calm, and did not show any uneasiness or worry: "I don't know where he is, I haven't seen him for a long time. Besides, he is rarely at home. ”

I then asked, "What is your father's job like, can you tell me about it?" ”

"He does analytical work and sits in the office every day."

"Analyze what?" I'm curious about this work.

"A lot of things, mainly in agriculture. Based on legal information such as local weather, newspapers, and television, we can calculate the local crop harvest and the prospects for the development of agriculture-related industries. That's all this stuff, it's boring, in fact, most of the intelligence is collected like this, not crazy and exaggerated like on TV! ”

"I see," I was disappointed, as it was a far cry from the work of an intelligence officer in my mind: "And what about your mother, she must be a very powerful person, right?" ”

"My mom is a housewife who knows everything and loves me very much."

Xiao Lin's words made me feel a little melancholy, she has a complete home, and I am one person to feed the whole family and not hungry. I forced a smile and said, "The last sentence is redundant, how can a mother not love her child!" ”

Xiao Lin was stunned for a moment, and involuntarily repeated: "Yes, how can there be a mother who doesn't love her children!" It was strange that her answer did not match the preface. I was about to continue asking, but Xiao Lin turned over, turned her back to me and said, "I'll sleep for a while, you watch carefully!" And he spoke no more. I had to stop the conversation, staring at her round body, and a crooked thought suddenly came to me: if I could jump up and ravage to my heart's content, I don't know what it would like, and I would definitely find teeth all over the ground, and then be thrown into the zombie crowd outside the door.

I half-lay on the bed and looked at the zombies at the door for a while, disassembled and reloaded the pistol, and gestured a few times to what Xiao Lin taught me. Boredom, he thought it was time to go upstairs to spy on the zombies, so he came to the hallway with a gun. Suddenly, I noticed a figure at the end of the hallway.

Zombie!? I was shocked to find out that it was a woman, and it was impossible for a zombie to be so neatly dressed. And the figure looks very familiar, as if I've seen it somewhere. "Who?" I quickly pointed a gun at him.

The person slowly walked out of the dark shadow, and I was surprised when I saw her face clearly: "Tang Rui! How did you end up here? ”

Tang Rui's beautiful face was rippling with a smile, but I felt eerie: "Hmph, if you escape to the ends of the earth, I will also find you and kill you!" ”

My heart was pounding: "You...... Are you really going to kill me? ”

Tang Rui smiled: "Of course, why are you pointing a gun at me?" Do you want to kill me? ”

I put down my pistol and stammered, "No, no, I won't hurt you!" ”

"Won't hurt me? You seem to have been hurt! Tang Rui walked forward slowly, and his right hand, which had been hidden behind his back, was exposed, and he was also holding a three-edged military thorn in his hand. I was so frightened that I gritted my teeth and stood still. Tang Rui came to me, she smiled fiercely, and slowly stretched out her left hand to pinch my neck: "Go to death!" "The thorn slammed into my eyes.

I closed my eyes and screamed, and when I opened my eyes again, Tang Rui was gone, and there was indeed a hand around her neck, but it was Xiao Lin's. She shook my body anxiously and shouted, "Wake up, wake up, the zombies are coming!" ”

I asked in a daze, "What, Tang Rui, you won't kill me?" ”

Xiao Lin hurriedly said: "Kill you!" Hurry up, the zombies are in the building! ”
