One-three-one ambush
Out of caution, Zhao Xinghua led the team to evacuate a distance of two kilometers along the highway, and the captured zombie was also tethered to the horse and dragged over.
"I don't know how many of these zombies will be in the tunnel ahead, it's not realistic to rush through like this, it's too dark in the tunnel and we don't have an advantage. Do you think there is any other way? ”
Zhao Xinghua had no clue for a while, and asked everyone for advice.
"I don't think the number of thermal weapons we carry is enough to fight this kind of annihilation war, if there are really more than 200 of these zombies, it will be very difficult to fight, their teeth and claws can hurt the licker, and they can resist the slashing of the knife, and it must be very dangerous to use cold weapons in close combat."
Ma Jincheng analyzed.
"Another thing we don't know about the intelligence of these things, zombies are not scary, I'm afraid that they will think, the corpse characteristics on their bodies are not obvious, the eyes are still moist, the joints are not hard, I don't know if they still retain the ability to think, if there is, it will be tricky."
Ning Yue voiced her concerns.
"I think it's better for us to take a different path, we didn't plan to encounter this kind of zombie at the beginning, if it's an ordinary S-type or D-type zombie, we have two lickers, plus our own combat power, these are not a problem, and now that this new type of group combat zombie has appeared, it is not easy to deal with. And this is only the entrance to the Dayao Mountain Tunnel, which is the longest tunnel group in Guangdong Province, with a total mileage of 24 kilometers, and we have to go through a long dark environment and unknown creatures to fight, which is indeed a bit difficult. ”
Gao Liexiong also voiced his concerns.
When Zhao Xinghua decided to give up this place and take a detour, and even thought about whether to go back to Colonel Gao to transfer the cannon for a long-range bombardment, Fan Yao's voice came into his ears.
"You see, the color of this zombie's body has changed a lot from just now, and its skin is also festering, and its spirit is not as vigorous as it was just now. It looks like it's dying. ”
Only then did everyone turn their attention back to the zombies on the ground.
Sure enough, the color of the original pale green zombie almost turned gray-white, the skin was festering, and the whole body was gradually shrinking and shriveled, the original face could still be seen to be human, and now the skin on the cheeks gradually became gray, stiff and cracked, and the eyes were also dissipating, and the fierce light was replaced by a painful look.
"What's going on?"
"They're afraid of the sun, which is why the zombies in the tunnels didn't rush out just now."
"Yes, it should be after the solar storm, the strong ultraviolet radiation is extremely destructive to the newly mutated cells of this creature, the nuclear protein and deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) of the cell strongly absorb the energy of ultraviolet rays, and the chains between them are opened and broken, so that the mutated cells die, and the hospital's ultraviolet sterilization and anti-virus lamp is the same, this mutated zombie cell structure is not stable, and it is easily destroyed by the radiation emitted by the sun."
Liang Hanba, a pseudo-medical officer, continued to express his opinions.
"Hehe, let's go find some mirrors and refract the sunlight into the tunnel, I don't know if it's okay?"
Yang Hao thought he was smart and said what he thought.
"Using mirrors is called reflection, find so many mirrors there, and this section of the tunnel is hundreds of meters long, they just run to the second section of the tunnel to the other exit, we can't move a big mirror to chase it, not to mention that it will take a long time for such a strong sunlight to dry them like this, or it is reliable to lead them out."
After that, Ning Yue aimed at Liang Hanba with his eyes, this uncle-in-law who didn't seem to be very reliable lost his mind by the evolutionary zombies who had been lured twice in Xiaohu Island and Guancheng, and it should be no problem to lure these little green men.
"That's it, we now have to think about the specific implementation steps."
Zhao Xinghua made a decision before Liang Hanba expressed his opinion.
……
Twenty minutes later, the zombie on the ground completely turned into a stiff dry corpse, which was accidentally bumped by a horse's hoof and broken into several pieces. No one paid any attention to it, and the horses around it roared away, and a gust of wind blew, rolling a broken corpse into the ditch by the side of the road, and then a pale green arm stretched out from the ditch and quickly grabbed the fragment, and quickly ducked back into the dark shadow of the ditch more than a meter deep.
……
On the eve of dawn, the two riders of the oolong horse cautiously walked in the direction of the tunnel, these days are around the thirtieth lunar calendar, there is no moonlight in the sky, and the surroundings are pitch black, if it is not for the improvement of eyesight after evolution, Gao Lie Xiong and Liang Hanba both can't discern the direction at this moment.
If you walk forward for about a kilometer, you can reach the entrance of the tunnel, Gao Liexiong issued an order to stop in advance, and Liang Hanba was very puzzled,
"It's too far from the entrance of the cave for me to pass the smell of blood over that distance?"
"It's not right, the night should be the time for these zombies to move, the sun will rise in another hour, they should rush back to the cave one after another at this moment, we haven't seen any of them all the way."
"Maybe they're coming in and out from the other direction?"
"They're only going to come in and out of this direction, and it's only a few kilometers away from the city, and they're going to come back over the hill."
"You're saying there's an ambush ahead?"
"I'm not sure, it's important to be careful to save your life, even if you don't attract zombies, the captain won't say anything when you go back."
"What you say makes sense, why don't I try it here?"
"Wait a minute, let's turn the horse's head back first."
"Xiao Gao, you are too careful, who will say that you are honest and I am in a hurry."
"Meow!"
The big black cat that followed the two of them suddenly let out a scream, and when they looked over, they only saw something pulling the black cat's tail and falling into the ditch on the side of the road.
"Run!"
Gao Lie Bear shouted, rushed to the black cat's side and swung his long knife at the same time, cutting off the black cat's tail with a single sword.
Dark shadows appeared on the road in front of and behind them, some jumping down the hillside on the side of the mountain, some burrowing out of the roadside drain, and some climbing up from under the viaduct. Fortunately, the two did not go deep into the tunnel entrance, and there were not many zombies behind them.
When the two of them hit the horses, they ran the same way, and the big black cat was also frightened, ignoring the injury of the tail, and rushed to the two zombies in front of the two horses.
The two horses also understood that they were surrounded by the enemy, and at the same time, the four hooves rushed in the direction they came from, and a tall zombie jumped from the dark hillside to the side of the two horses, and punched the abdomen of the war horse ridden by the high fierce bear on the right, and the war horse let out a wail, and the speed did not decrease before rushing forward for a few hundred meters before falling to the ground. After landing, Gao Liexiong didn't have time to check the injury of the war horse, and shouted to Liang Hanba, who stopped in front and looked back at his side,
"Let's go, I have a way to get out!"
With that, he turned around and ran towards the railing on the left, and in the blink of an eye, he turned over and jumped off the viaduct, and his figure disappeared into the darkness. A few of the zombies swarming from behind pounced on the fallen and twitching horses and began to gnaw. More of them rushed in the direction of Liang Hanba, who stopped not far away, and Liang Hanba could only beat his horse again and walk quickly. Although the speed of the zombies that followed behind them is not as perverted as the oolong horse, the endurance is also very strong, and unlike those S-type zombies, they do not run on all fours, but also run on both feet in the same way as humans. Seeing this, Liang Hanba's heart moved, and for the first time on horseback, he used his brainwave amplification ability to transmit the bloody smell on the black cat's tail, and in an instant, the group of corpses behind him let out an excited roar. The largest zombie suddenly accelerated and rushed towards evil, and gradually narrowed the distance between him and Liang Hanba.
Liang Hanba deliberately controlled the horse's speed, for fear of throwing the zombies behind him too far away to keep up. Now he is a little complaining about General Zhao Xinghua. The ambush location was chosen too far, what if these zombies gave up halfway through and didn't come with them?
Fortunately, the problem that Liang Hanba was worried about did not appear, and the zombies behind him were still chasing after him.
It's just that Liang Hanba is still very depressed at this time, Zhao Xinghua sent Gao Liexiong to lead the way, the two are not familiar with the road conditions at night, and the ambush location is also temporarily arranged, now Gao Liexiong is missing, no one shows him the way, he can't remember how far he has run, which intersection should get off the highway, without moonlight, he can't see the name on the highway sign a few meters above the ground.
In desperation, he took the time to pick up the Type 95 rifle from his horse and pulled the trigger in the air, hoping that his comrades in ambush in the distance would understand his intentions.
As he was trying to remember the prominent landmarks he had passed as he had come, gunshots rang out a few miles behind him.
"It's over, it's over!"
