Chapter 41: The Heart of Death
Underground Hidden Base.
The original alloy electric control door has been replaced with a sliding door, and behind the heavy alloy door is a road leading to the bottom.
At the entrance, in addition to a dozen rifle soldiers armed with reloaded bayonets on duty, there is a five-step post and a ten-step sentry on the road extending downward, and the guards are extremely tight.
And because of the disappearance of electricity, it is lit by burning torches.
At the bottom of the base, in an operations staff room, the original computers and screens had been discarded and pushed aside, and only a sand table containing most of the surrounding area of the outer valley was left on the empty table.
Brigade commander Lin Chongshan, chief of staff Huo Jianguo, and regiment commanders and battalion commanders of various regiments are all here.
Looking at the sand table in front of him, Lin Chongshan said in a deep voice: "Presumably everyone already knows the situation outside, although we retreated here in time, but those mutant beasts outside did not leave, they obviously regarded us as food!" ”
"It stands to reason that we could stay here forever, but because of the rush to retreat, a lot of food was left outside, and the food and water stored here could only last us for ten days."
"After ten days, we will face a crisis of water and food shortage, let's talk about what to do!"
Listening to Lin Chongshan's words, Chief of Staff Huo Jianguo frowned, and after thinking for a moment, he said: "Brigade Commander Lin, what you said is not unreasonable, but no matter how powerful those mutant beasts outside are, they are still beasts after all. ”
"I think as long as we hold on for a few days, before we can do it, I'm afraid they will be the first to cannibalize each other!"
"Chief of Staff Lin is right, in this way, we can also avoid unnecessary casualties, after all, now we have lost contact with our superiors, and now any soldier is a valuable resource in this last days!"
As Huo Jianguo spoke, the other staff officers also nodded in agreement.
It's just that after Lin Chongshan listened to it, he obviously felt that Huo Jianguo's proposal was a little conservative, but he still nodded, and then looked at the other two regiment commanders besides Zhou Ying.
"Head Wu, Head Chen, what do you think?"
The commander of the second regiment is called Wu Ke, who is burly and has a big bald head, and looks very fierce; Of course, his strength is not weak, and he has been promoted to the quadruple of the day after tomorrow.
And the commanders of the third regiment, Chen Xin, like Wu Ke, are both acquired quadruple strength, and they are relatively calm.
But at this moment, hearing the brigade commander's inquiry, the two of them glanced at each other, and said with resolute expressions: "Brigade commander, we suggest that all the strongest soldiers in the army be gathered together, and then go out to fight those mutant beasts!" ”
"Because whether it is the brigade commander or the chief of staff, you should have heard that mysterious voice say, if we want to continue to live, we must improve our strength!"
"There will be death when fighting mutant beasts, but this is inevitable, and the temporary sacrifice is for a better life in the future! I believe that neither me, Regiment Commander Chen, nor other battalion commanders and soldiers are willing to stay here and wait for death! ”
"Mutant beasts are getting stronger and stronger, and if we humans don't realize this, we will be eliminated sooner or later!"
At this moment, Wu Ke and Chen Xin suddenly burst out with a strong fighting intent, and they looked at Lin Chongshan, Huo Jianguo and the other staff officers with burning eyes.
"The soldiers of the third battalion of my 1st Regiment ask to join the war!"
"The soldiers of the first battalion of my second regiment are asking to join the battle!"
"The soldiers of the second battalion of my third regiment ask to join the war!"
……
Not only that, but the other battalion commanders who came to attend the meeting also took a step forward and stood in a military posture, shouting with their heads held high.
Feeling the strong fighting spirit and determination of Wu Ke and other officers, Lin Chongshan, as a brigade commander, was very pleased, nodded and said: "Yes, as a soldier, the battlefield is our destination. Retreat is not the style of our soldiers! ”
"Those outside are just a group of beasts that are a little more powerful, if the guns can't be used, we can use knives, if the cannons can't be used, we can make crossbows, can't we even beat a group of beasts?"
"The brigade commander is right, in the past, our ancestors were able to defeat the enemy's aircraft artillery with millet plus rifles, and now we can still defeat the enemy!"
Huo Jianguo, who was originally a little conservative, was also enthusiastic at the moment, and said with a fist.
All of a sudden, the atmosphere in the war room was completely burned to the top.
Then the chief of staff Huo Jianguo drafted the plan, and the staff officers jointly formulated the battle plan, and finally the brigade commander Lin Chongshan directly decided, and a plan called "the strongest fire" was suddenly generated.
After the plan was arranged, the soldiers of the entire underground base were immediately busy, and one after another soldiers who passed after strict review were selected one after another.
Preparations for the counteroffensive are in full swing.
It's just that what everyone doesn't know is that at the mouth of the valley of the open-air camp outside, a group of people also quietly appeared.
These people are none other than Du Yun and more than a thousand survivors who have only arrived here after leaving the Fozhong community at full speed.
Because he found that there were no soldiers on duty at the mouth of the valley, Zhou Ying was shocked and quickly stopped the team, and at the same time asked everyone not to make too much noise.
"What's wrong?" Seeing Zhou Ying's solemn face, Du Yun asked.
"Something must have happened inside!" Zhou Ying wasn't too sure.
And at this time, Du Miao, who was acting as a scout and was responsible for exploring the way in front, and the other five Wuhuan riders came down from the slopes on both sides of the hill and quickly came to Du Yun.
"My lord, a large number of mutant wild wolves, wild boars and mutant snakes have been found in the valley, the number is no less than three hundred, and the preliminary judgment is that the strength is above the fifth level of the day after tomorrow."
"Actually attacked by a mutant monster?" Hearing Du Miao's return, Du Yun frowned, he didn't expect this to be the result.
And Zhou Ying was even more surprised, and asked in great panic: "Then...... Apart from those mutant beasts, do you see any other living people inside? ”
"Probably not!" Du Miao shook her head and said.
"Nope! Impossible! There are so many people in the barracks, how can they not defeat a group of beasts! No, I'm going to go in and have a look! Lin Zihan, who was sitting in front of Du Yun, turned pale for a while, and forced the tears in his eyes to struggle to get off the horse.
Du Yun put Lin Zihan down, but he opened his mouth to persuade him: "Don't worry, there are four or five thousand people in such a large military camp, it is impossible that no one is alive; Perhaps, there are other hiding places in the barracks! ”
"Hey, I almost forgot about it! There is indeed an underground base in the barracks, maybe the brigade commanders have all retreated there by now! ”
After Du Yun's reminder, Zhou Ying, who was originally anxious, suddenly slapped his forehead and said with a wry smile.
"So what do we do next?"
Although Lin Zihan believed what Zhou Ying said, he still looked at Du Yun with worried eyes.
At the same time, Zhou Ying and the other soldiers present also moved their eyes to Du Yun's body, and their eyes revealed anticipation and nervousness.
