Chapter 46 Responsibilities

"This is the end of this documentary. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" Li Jing is no longer nervous at the beginning when facing the camera, "After that, if conditions permit, we will continue to shoot the next issue and broadcast it." ”

"The content of the survival manual dropped by the helicopter before is completely true, please keep the content in mind, and if you have received multiple manuals, please spread the content of the manual or the manual to as many people as possible, after all, the resources are limited, and the scope of the airdrop is limited, maybe you can save people's lives with a single effort."

"Next, I will broadcast the contents of the manual, and if you are in front of the TV, if you can't get it, please take out a pen and paper to record it immediately. After the broadcast, we will repeat the previous content in a loop. Stay tuned for our follow-up coverage. Li Jing took out the manual and began to broadcast.

Yang Xiaoqian raised his hand to turn off the TV, and the smoke cloud in the room added a little thicker.

"Is the army really in full control of the situation?" Yang Yan opened his mouth to break the long silence.

Wang Li shook his head pessimistically and responded: "They didn't mention the mutant from beginning to end, I'm afraid they don't know anything about the mutant at all, and once they encounter the mutant without warning, they will definitely suffer heavy losses." ”

Wang Hai, who has rich experience in the army, disagreed, and immediately retorted: "The most important thing in combat is information collection, and it is impossible for the 258th Brigade not to know about mutants, unless they have never encountered a mutant until now." ”

"It's not impossible." Yang Yan began to play with a stack of playing cards in his hand, and the fancy cutting cards was dizzying, "Zombies need to eat a sufficient amount of flesh and blood to evolve into mutants, look at the documentary, the army has so far mainly exterminated the corpse tide in major hospitals, there are too many zombies there, and it is not strange that there are no mutants among them - the two mutants we met before have eaten more than a dozen cars or even more people." ”

Wang Hai shook his head again and denied: "It's not strange that there are no mutants in the corpse tide of major hospitals, but the 258 Brigade also sent troops to search and rescue nearby residents, there is no reason why not a single mutant can be touched, right?" ”

"If you know about the mutants, why don't you say it in the documentary just now? Is it secrecy for the sake of stabilizing people's hearts? Wang Li knocked on the table, and a lot of soot shook out of the ashtray, "But the mutants are so harmful, how can they hide it and not report it?" From the beginning of the leaflet to the current broadcast of the documentary, it shows that the 258th Brigade has no intention of concealing the news, and I don't think they will know about it. ”

"It's possible to not report it." Yang Xiaoqian, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke, "The harmfulness of zombies is not at the same level as the harmfulness of mutants. ”

"Remember those two mutants we encountered? The one that evolved a long tongue and mouthparts is nothing, and it is still a vulnerable cannon fodder in front of the army, but the mutant that can disguise itself as a normal person......" Yang Xiaoqian pursed his lips, "Just imagine, what would happen if one of these mutants managed to sneak into the temporary shelter?" ”

"In that case, it is more important to inform everyone, rather than not reporting it." Father Yang Yan put down the cards, unable to understand his son's inconsistent statement.

However, Wang Li has experience in managing large companies, so he understood the meaning at a point, and said: "No, if it is broadcast on TV, everyone will no longer trust others." Once this seed of doubt is planted, it is difficult for the survivors to work together and can only trust themselves, but for most ordinary people, walking alone often means death. ”

Yang Xiaoqian gave Wang Li an appreciative look, nodded and said: "Therefore, the 258 Brigade may have encountered mutants, but for some considerations, the news was blocked within the army and not spread outside, presumably they will also have to do a physical examination when they collect refugees, but I don't know if they have mastered an effective way to distinguish mutants with camouflage ability." ”

"Probably not, if you know how to distinguish it, why hide it?" Wang Hai asked.

"It's hard to say, it's also possible that the 258th Brigade has indeed not seen any mutants until now, but we bumped into the big luck and ran into two of them once." Yang Xiaoqian patted the table and signaled Wang Li and Wang Hai to stop arguing, "Okay, don't continue this topic, we have more important issues to pay attention to." ”

"Boss Wang, no one else on the island has seen this documentary, right?" Yang Xiaoqian asked.

"Just call me by name." Wang Li nodded and replied, "According to your instructions, all unnecessary electrical appliances have been turned off to save energy, so only we can watch TV." ”

"It's good, don't let anyone else know anything about it until the time comes, or even those who keep them won't be able to keep their hearts." Yang Xiaoqian continued to ask, "What about food?" How long can the existing reserves last? ”

"If you keep the number of people the same, up to a month." Wang Li reported the answer that had been prepared for a long time.

"It's only been a month? I didn't let you eat and drink three meals a day, and I didn't give them enough food. ”

"Yes, I understand. But it can only last for a month at most. Wang Li explained, "The staple food reserves of Paradise Island are generally fresh, and fresh dishes are replaced on time, there is basically no dry food, and there is not much inventory of non-staple foods. Before, the food you brought was procured according to the number of people in the squad, and if it was only a few people, it would last a few years, but now you have to feed three or four hundred people, even if you tighten your belt, you can only supply for a month. And ......"

Wang Li glanced at Wang Hai and said, "Captain Wang trains the crossbow team, don't look at the fact that there are only twelve people, and they eat more than fifty or sixty people. ”

Yang Xiaoqian turned his eyes to look at Wang Hai, Wang Hai obviously hadn't recovered from the shock of the documentary just now, and was stunned for a while before replying: "To train qualified troops, it's not enough to teach to aim and shoot with crossbows, their physical strength is too poor, and they also lack combat quality, and they need a lot of drills every day to hone them, so there is no way to consume a lot." ”

Yang Xiaoqian nodded in approval, they can't expect them to be able to train into a strong army by eating a little instant noodle biscuits every day, if the nutritional supply can't keep up, strong training will only collapse their bodies.

"Let's figure out what to do with the food. Three days later at the latest, Yu Qian and I will lead the team back to the city, Wang Li Wang Hai, please prepare well. Yang Xiaoqian clapped his hands and nodded at a few people in the room, "Hard work, Dad, let's talk." ”

followed Yang Xiaoqian back to the suite, and Yang Yan persuaded him in the first sentence: "Xiaoqian, I think you should not go, Yu Qian wants to collect some awakened people, just let him go by himself." ”

Yang Xiaoqian poured a cup of warm water for his father and handed it to Yang Yan.

"Dad, staying here can certainly keep you safe for a while, but this security is only temporary." Yang Xiaoqian's brows tightened, and his tone was low, "The documentary just now was a combat mobilization at all, don't you see it?" ”

"What?" Yang Yan was stunned, then stood up and closed the door, and asked in a low voice, "What do you mean?" ”

"Forget it, it's nothing." Yang Xiaoqian rubbed his eyebrows, wiping out the folds on it, "In short, the situation is critical, I must follow Yu Qian to lead the team to the city." ”

"Why?" finally had a safe place to stay, where could Yang Yan rest assured that his only son was in danger again.

"Yu Qian's elm head, how many awakened people can you find? And with his character, he will definitely not save ordinary people when they see death, and if they don't do it, they will clash with the army. Of course, none of this is important, the important thing is that Yu Qian will definitely not contact the 258 Brigade or other government departments. Yang Xiaoqian sighed, it can't be said that Yu Qian's pattern is not enough, it's just that more than ten years of imprisonment have made it difficult for him to trust others.

"Only if I go can I find a way to contact the 258th Brigade or other units, pass on the information we know, and help the soldiers on the front line of the Anti-Japanese War." Yang Xiaoqian looked at the vista outside the floor-to-ceiling window and said, "This is the duty to be done." ”

"Don't be stupid, Xiaoqian!" Yang Yan was so anxious that he stomped his feet, pointed at Yang Xiaoqian's nose and shouted, "You still think you are a child, what kind of heroism are you playing!" There are so many people in Yuanjiang, much stronger than you and more powerful than you, what can you do! ”

"No, Dad." Yang Xiaoqian gently patted Yang Yan's hand and said softly, "Wang Hai said something that I think is quite right: if everyone who has the ability to participate in the war thinks so, how long can the 258 Brigade fight alone?" ”

"Dad, I'm not going to pick up the corpse tide alone, I'm just trying to find a way to contact the troops, if we can establish effective cooperation, it will also be a good thing for us."

"No, no, I don't agree." Yang Yan is still stubborn, "What kind of cooperation do you talk about with others, where does the capital come from?" ”

"I myself am the capital, whether you agree or not, this matter is decided." Yang Xiaoqian knew that he couldn't convince a father who was worried about his son's safety, so he simply ended the topic.

"Your wings are stiff." Yang Yan threw down this sentence, got up and left angrily, and shook the door to the sky.

Looking at the back of his father's departure, Yang Xiaoqian had the heart to apologize but didn't want to have another dispute, so he stood for a long time, sighed and fell on the bed.
