Chapter 579 The journey is dangerous
"Lao Xu, try to transfer people from the Dongtan International Conference Center?" Jiang Yongsheng patted his head and suddenly came up with an idea.
"What about the security of the convention center?" Xu Yueming asked.
"It's not that all the security personnel inside are transferred out, and it's only for this night, just let them help control the situation, and when the morning dawns, the army will come and take over." Jiang Yongsheng's idea is a good idea, and he has also thought it through.
"That's all it takes," Xu Yueming nodded, and he said to Da Fei, "Gao Pengfei, you go with me to the Dongtan International Conference Center." ”
"Old Jiang, the Armed Forces Department has worked hard for you to sit and plan here," Xu Yueming explained to Jiang Yongsheng, and then took Da Fei and left the Armed Forces Department.
"Don't worry," waiting for Xu Yueming and Da Fei to go out of the door, Jiang Yongsheng took his gaze back and turned to land on the map on the wall. After a short time, I saw him pick up the communicator again, and prepare to start arranging his troops according to the plan he had just determined.
The last time there was a zombie incident in Lixin Village, more than 200 people were dispatched from the entire Dongtan side, including regular soldiers sent by the disaster relief headquarters and local security forces. This time the situation was much more severe than the last one, not only to stop the corpses from moving south, but also to control their spread as much as possible.
Ling Shidong's soldiers have been transferred to Changxing, and this time Jiang Yongsheng can only rely on the local security forces in his hands.
The people of Dongtan and Yingdong were mobilized, Xu Yueming also rushed to the International Conference Center to transfer people, and many places on Chongming Island in the middle of the night suddenly became noisy.
"What, corpses?" Meng Jie was woken up by Wu Wu when he was sleeping soundly, and the person who was woken up with him was Wu Zhe.
"What's going on, Master Wu?" Wu Zhe also looked confused, and did not react to this amazing news at all.
"Yes, I'm also surprised, but the leader of the Dongtan Armed Forces Department has now come over, and he plans to transfer people from the International Conference Center to assist in the defense of Chongming Island, and I think we should go and help them."
"Okay," Meng Jie and Wu Zhe nodded, neither of them having any objections.
"Prepare right now, and follow me to meet their leaders." Since Liu Jiajun was injured, the only people in Wu Wu's department who can be sent out are Meng Jie and Wu Zhe, and he has not expanded his department before, on the one hand, because the internal security pressure of the international conference center is not great, and on the other hand, considering that there are few reliable people, in line with the principle of preferring shortage to excess, he did not rush to let people in.
The three of them came to the hall downstairs, and there were already many people here who responded to Xu Yueming's call, and everyone brought weapons and prepared to set off to meet the corpses according to the instructions of the leader of the armed forces.
Meng Jie saw Da Fei beside Xu Yueming, this tall man he was very familiar with, and knew that it was Chen Bin and their people.
Meng Jie walked over to say hello to Da Fei and asked him inadvertently, "What about the rest of you?" ”
"The people in our team have already set off, and now they should be assisting the people threatened by the corpses to evacuate, and there are two companions who drove the car to lure most of the zombies back to the danger zone, so as to relieve the pressure of our Dongtan side of the shortage of manpower," Da Fei said and began to worry about the safety of Chen Bin and Chen Ting again.
"Into the danger zone? Which two people? Meng Jie was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect that there was such a bold guy in Da Fei and his group.
"Chen Bin, and Chen Ting."
"What?" Meng Jie screamed in surprise when he heard Chen Ting go to the danger zone. The people next to him didn't know what was going on with him, and they all looked at him.
Meng Jie didn't care about the surprised eyes of others, he pulled Da Fei aside, "Chen Ting also went to the danger zone?" How did you get a woman to follow up? ”
"It's hard to explain," Da Fei didn't know how to explain to him.
"Everyone follow Comrade Gao Pengfei of our Armed Forces Department, he will take you to the place where the accident occurred, and after that, you must do your best to prevent the corpses from spreading, because except for the people who have been sent out and you, we have no soldiers in Dongtan." Xu Yueming began to mobilize, "We are the last reliance of Chongming's fathers, everyone, let's go." ”
There were many vehicles outside the building, and Xu Yueming mobilized more than 40 people at the International Conference Center. After everyone came outside and got into the car, the convoy formed a long line and headed north.
Because there are more vehicles, the speed of the convoy has been slowed down a lot. Meng Jie drove the car, and his heart became more and more anxious.
"Brother, our speed of action is too slow, I don't have time to move with the big army," Meng Jie said to Wu Zhe, "I have to go first." ”
"How?" Wu Zhe didn't understand what Meng Jie meant, "You don't want to act with us?" ”
"Well, it doesn't matter if there is more of me and less of me in the army, but Miss Chen Ting went to the danger zone, I can't rest assured, I have to find her." Meng Jie was very worried about Chen Ting's safety at the moment, because the action of using himself as a bait to lure the corpses back to the danger zone was too dangerous, and ordinary people who performed this kind of task could basically be regarded as outcasts.
Moreover, Meng Jie had also experienced the corpse group attacking the base in the Jilong Mountain Shelter, and he knew very well what kind of destructive power the assembled zombies would have.
"Are you doing it alone? Now it's dark outside, and you've never been in the danger zone, how can you find someone? Not to mention saving people. Wu Zhe disagreed with his plan and was about to open his mouth to continue persuading him, but Meng Jie waved his hand to interrupt him.
"Brother, I only want to ask you one thing, if Zhu Xi's girl is now in the situation of Miss Chen Ting, how do you choose?" Meng Jie looked at Wu Zhe, and he was speechless when he said this.
Meng Jie patted him on the shoulder, "Don't worry, we are from the field army, and we didn't do much about marching in the middle of the night before, but these eyes are bright." ”
"Besides, my wife is in danger now, can I not save her?" Meng Jie said cheekily.
"I'll go with you," Wu Zhe knew that he couldn't persuade him, but he didn't worry about him going into the danger zone alone to find someone.
"I'll just go alone," Meng Jie said, "If we both act privately halfway, it will be difficult for Master Wu to explain to the people in the Armed Forces Department, you follow the team and help me do my part for the Dongtan side." ”
"Then you be careful, otherwise Lao Tzu won't have any paper to burn for you during the Qingming Festival," Wu Zhe nodded, knowing that he was right, so he had to laugh and scold. He pulled his hand to the car door and asked Meng Jie to pull over and stop the car.
"I'll go to Da Fei's car," Wu Zhe said, he looked at Meng Jie and solemnly admonished, "You must be careful." ”
Meng Jie nodded, and after Wu Zhe got out of the car, he drove the car away from the route of the convoy. He saw through the glass that Wu Zhe ran all the way to catch up with the flying car in front of him, and then he withdrew his gaze, and the relaxed gesture he had deliberately made on his face before also dispersed, replaced by a resolute and solemn face.
"Where are we?" Chen Ting asked.
Chen Bin shook his head, it was pitch black outside the car window, and when they came all the way, although they could barely hold the corpses behind the car, they encountered many zombies along the way.
These zombies were all left behind when the corpses went to the defense line before, and now Chen Bin led the corpses back, and collided with these guys who fell behind.
He carefully controlled the car, trying to keep it as steady as possible in the dark night.
There was no suitable reference nearby, and Chen Bin didn't know how to answer Chen Ting's question.
"Are you afraid?" Chen Bin asked, he just noticed that Chen Ting was leaning back in the chair and shrunk her neck slightly.
"Don't be afraid," Chen Ting responded with a smile, as if encouraging Chen Bin and comforting herself.
"I'll do my best to keep you safe, and you'll be okay until I have an accident," Mr. Chen said. Chen Ting chased after the car because he didn't expect it before, but it was a foregone conclusion, and he could only give up. It's just that the situation faced by the two tonight is very grim, and Chen Bin himself is not sure that he will be able to escape.
All he can do is give Chen Ting a promise and do his best for this promise.
In the middle of the night, the abandoned cars on the side of the road caused a lot of trouble for Chen Bin and Chen Ting, and on several occasions they had to drive under the roadbed because the road was blocked, so that their cars were at risk of sinking into canals and dirt pits.
"Be careful," Chen Ting was also helping Chen Bin observe the road conditions and the group of corpses on the back of the car.
After avoiding obstacles across the road again, Chen Bin drove the car back onto the road. He suddenly heard a noise coming from the back of the pickup truck, as if something was hitting it.
Chen Bin glanced back at the rear windshield, and found that the corpses were still hanging behind the car not far away, he stopped the car, ready to check the fuel tank and chassis before the corpses came over, the knocking sound just now gave him the illusion that the car was scraped by something.
As soon as the car stopped, Chen Bin stretched out his hand to open the door, when suddenly a hideous face appeared on the window glass.
Chen Bin was startled by the zombie that suddenly appeared outside the car window, and his hand that was about to pull the car door retracted. The zombie was pulling on the window glass, the long hair on its head and the scalp had fallen out a lot, and under the light in the car, Chen Bin saw that its white face and facial features were mutilated.
One of the zombie's eye sockets was hollow, the eyeball inside had long since disappeared, its nose had collapsed, and a large piece of flesh on its upper and lower lips had been missing. The bloody teeth were exposed, and the corners of one side of the mouth were even cracked in the direction of the root of the ear.
Just when the attention of both of them was attracted by the zombies outside the window on the side of the cab, there was also a "bang" on the door next to the passenger seat where Chen Ting was.
