Chapter 88: News from the Governor
Zhang Qiru and Brother Leopard captured a total of nine evolved goats, five for Zhang Qiru and four for Brother Leopard - the leader sheep was killed by Zhang Qiru, so it can't be counted. Of course, in the end, Zhang Qiru won, and Brother Leopard lost another meal. However, Zhang Qiru did not let Brother Leopard pay it back, his goal has been achieved, and there is no need to let Brother Leopard break the bank.
And Brother Leopard, there is already a strong admiration in his heart. Zhang Qiru is not only superior in strength, but also quite good at appeasing his subordinates, and the soul hunting team seems to be very united. In contrast, their own people are not good, the military spirit is weak, and there is no cohesion. In fact, since Zhang Qiru came to Xiacheng Prison, Brother Leopard has been working hard and changed his management style, but he has never reached the level of the soul hunting team - he didn't expect that he would handle the death of Leopard Er a little poorly. Although in his opinion, Leopard Er was shameless, ruthless and treacherous, and even killed his biological parents, but he didn't expect that his subordinates would not think so! is so vicious to his own brother, let alone ordinary subordinates?
Both groups cleaned up the goats they had hunted. Zhang Qiru ordered Aunt Li to store all the goat's meat in the freezer of the material truck - as the strongest brain group, of course, it was planned to install a freezer in the material car! Of course, Brother Leopard is relatively simple, they directly wrapped it in plastic sheeting and threw it on the car......
In order to avoid the smell of goat's blood from attracting zombies, Zhang Qiru and Brother Leopard set off again.
It was getting dark, and the convoy was moving forward in the darkness with the lights on. The drone has been hovering in the air, scouting the surrounding situation.
"Brother Ru! There are lights about ten kilometers ahead! Yang Xiaoqi said suddenly.
"Lights? Can you determine where it is? Zhang Qiru asked.
"It's the Delta of Shanghe City!" Yang Xiaoqi replied.
"Upper River Delta?" Zhang Qiru thought for a while, and then remembered something, "Is that the film and television base?" Known as the Venice of the Central Plains, in fact, there are only 25 hectares of tourist attractions? ”
"Yes, it looks like there are quite a few people!" Yang Xiaoqi looked at the picture transmitted by the drone and said.
"Check it out!" Zhang Qiru thinks the delta should be a good place to spend the night.
Ten kilometers were quickly passed, and Zhang Qiru and his party came to the only bridge in the delta. However, the bridge has been blocked by several large trucks, which have built a defensive wall more than 10 meters high, and there are people with guns patrolling the wall.
"What do you guys do?" The patrolling soldier asked.
"Passing by here, spend the night!" Zhang Qiru replied.
"Wait a minute, I'll ask the leader!" The soldier said that he could not call the shots and that he had to listen to the leader.
Zhang Qiru pursed his lips. Ask the leader? Lao Tzu's headlights can be seen hundreds of meters away, are you all blind? However, Zhang Qiru did not want to conflict with these people yet.
"The leader said that it is okay to stay overnight, but there is a fee! Moreover, the weapon must be handed over! After a while, the patrolling soldiers returned.
"Then you go and ask him again, if Lao Tzu's car brakes badly and crashes your gate, how to pay!" Of course, Zhang Qiru would not let anyone slaughter him, so he said to the soldiers without hesitation.
"What did you say!" The soldiers on patrol were very angry and took out their guns and pointed them at Zhang Qiru, and the rest of the people also took out their guns.
"Give you three minutes, open the door! Otherwise, you're welcome! Zhang Qiru was a little angry, why are there so many warlords?
"MD, is the gun in Lao Tzu's hand an ornament?" The patrol angrily fired a shot into the air, indicating that he really had a gun.
Zhang Qiru didn't answer, picked up the 81 bar in his hand and shot at the sky, but it was half a shuttle.
"Are you joking with you when you say Lao Tzu?" Zhang Qiru sneered, "Machine gun car, prepare!" ”
Two machine-gun wagons were pointed at the gate.
"At the last minute, if you don't open the door, Lao Tzu will blow up your broken iron door!"
"Rampant! Attracted zombies, see who is unlucky! A man who looked like a leader appeared on the wall and said in a cold voice.
"The last thirty seconds!" Zhang Qiru didn't pay attention to it at all.
"Huh! When the zombies come, cry! The leader's voice was still cold, as if there was no one standing underneath, and if he died, he would die.
"Five, four, three, two, one, fire!" Zhang Qiru did not hesitate to order the fire.
The machine-gun car immediately spat out tongues of fire, firing more than 30 rounds in a row, and the large iron gate was directly penetrated, bursting out with beautiful sparks. Zhang Qiru didn't give these people some color to see, they still wanted to bully themselves!
"What for! It's not open yet! Another loud voice came, and the door slowly opened.
A middle-aged man greeted him, smiling all over his face.
"Sir, don't be surprised, child, you don't know the rules! Inside please! ”
The middle-aged man looked like an old bustard, pulling the guest's clothes and saying, "Uncle, please inside!" Zhang Qiru felt a little disgusted by that flattering appearance.
"Get in the car!" Zhang Qiru drove into the delta with the convoy.
After some searching, Zhang Qiru chose a parking lot to station. It's a big area, but it's leaky on all sides, it's very cold, and no one wants to stay in this place. Zhang Qiru turned the front of the car and was ready to leave at any time. The reason why he dared to drive in was that he was not afraid of not being able to get out, and there was nothing to stop their convoy, and as for blowing up the bridge, no one could do it here.
The convoy rested quietly for the night, and the gunfire at the door did not attract zombies.
In the morning, Zhang Qiru took Li Xiaorou to go around to see if he could find more pots and stew mutton to eat. Zhang Qiru carried a gun and walked around the street, and he noticed that the people here did not seem to be short of food.
"Uncle, what are you eating?" Zhang Qiru saw an uncle on the side of the road and stepped forward to ask.
"Sir, you're new, aren't you? We all eat fish here to satisfy our hunger. The old man raised the remaining half of the fish in his hand and said.
"Fish? Did you catch it in the river? Zhang Qiru asked.
"Yes! Shanghe City already produces fish, and now the fish grows very big, and you can only eat one for a long time. I'm small! The uncle said and took another bite of fish.
"Uncle, don't you have any zombies here? The river is frozen, and there are no zombies running over? Zhang Qiru was curious about this question yesterday.
"Nope! You don't know, sir, there are a lot of big fish in this river, especially big! They broke the ice in the river so that the fish could breathe, so the zombies couldn't get by! Uncle explained.
"I see! Uncle, how long have you been here? Zhang Qiru continued to ask.
"It's been more than two months!" The old man said.
"How many people are there on this island?"
"More than 20,000, right? I can't remember. At first, there were only more than 10,000 people here, but later a large number came, as if they came from some city, it seems to be from Hedong Province! The old man thought for a while and said.
"From Amagi?" Zhang Qiru said subconsciously, but he didn't expect the uncle to be grateful.
"Well, yes, it's Amagi! Saying that the city was breached, and they migrated. The old man struggled to remember.
"Do you know where they live?" Zhang Qiru thought that these people might know the news of the governor.
"I mainly live in the south, and there are a lot of houses there, you can see it at once!" Uncle said that he would continue to eat fish.
"The Celestial City Resettlement Camp, so coincidentally? Could the Governor you are talking about be there too? Li Xiaorou said.
"No, it won't. There are only 10,000 people here, and the Governor has more than 20,000 soldiers alone, and they will not all be here, and besides, the Governor has armored vehicles, and it seems that there is no one here except for the guards who have guns. Zhang Qiru analyzed.
"Then let's go and ask if there's any news of the Governor." Li Xiaorou took Zhang Qiru's hand and walked forward.
At the southernmost tip of the delta is a cinema that is large enough to accommodate a large number of refugees. Zhang Qiru was walking in the cinema, and the seats in the screening hall had long been removed, and now the ground was full of sleeping refugees. Hundreds of people are crammed into a screening room, and despite the fact that the screening room is thousands of square meters, the combination of strong smells is still unbearable. Li Xiaorou kept covering her nose.
"Hey, fellow, are you from Celestial City?" Zhang Qiru grabbed a young man and asked.
The young man looked at Zhang Qiru and was stunned for a while, before he said in surprise: "You are the little hunter Zhang!" ”
"Uh...... Be! You remember me! Zhang Qiru didn't expect to be so famous.
"Of course I do! You're a big celebrity in Amagi! The young man said.
"Can I ask you a few things?" Zhang Qiru also tried his best to speak politely, they are all from Tiancheng, and they can be regarded as fellow countrymen.
"Just ask!" Relatives seem very friendly.
"Why are you here? Didn't the Governor plan to go to Camp L.A.? Zhang Qiru asked.
"Plans can't keep up with the changes! We were moving too slowly, and we were attacked by zombies along the way, losing a lot of people. Food and water supplies could not keep up, and they could only advance less than 60 kilometers a day. Not long after I left, winter came again, which directly caused many people to freeze to death, and seriously slowed down the migration speed. The young man said.
"Did you make it to the Los Angeles camp at the end?" Zhang Qiru asked, this is what he cares about the most.
"Most of the people arrived, and we were left behind!" The young man said.
"Left behind? What do you mean? Zhang Qiru asked.
"The governor took 500,000 men with him, and he lost more than 200,000 in total by removing those who died in the middle, those who fell behind, and those who left on their own! When we came to Shanghe City, there were only a little more than 250,000 left, but we were attacked by corpses here, and the team was broken up again, and the large army had now arrived at the Los Angeles camp, and those of us who were scattered could only hide on the spot, so we stayed on the island. The young man said.
"And how many men did the Governor bring to Camp L.A."
"According to the radio, there are 200,000!"
"What about He Jianguo?"
"Dead!? How did he die? ”
"The zombies raided, and later the governor took over He Jianguo's troops."
Zhang Qiru was stunned, he didn't expect He Jianguo to die inexplicably! If the Governor takes over He Jianguo's troops, then the Governor's current strength may be enough to compete with the number one leader of the Los Angeles battalion, right?
