With a loud bang, the door of the rooftop was kicked open by a scorpion, and Vincent and the others rushed out.
On the rooftop, there were 6 people wearing air force camouflage uniforms standing at the door looking at them excitedly, and the lynx and the others did not let their guard down, but pointed their guns at them and asked, "Which part are you from?" ”
A man in his 30s in the middle spoke: "We are from the 046th Airborne Division of the 11th Army of the Air Force, I am their regiment commander, my name is Gong Jihui, our helicopter broke down, and then we were forced to land on this platform." ”
As he spoke, he turned around and pointed to an abandoned military helicopter not far behind him, and continued: "Fortunately, there is a canteen on the third floor, and a lot of food has been stored in it to keep us up to now." We want to rush down, but you should have noticed that there are too many zombies in this building, and I heard that you fought all the way up, and the firefight was fierce, so you must have seen it. We tried three times, each time we failed, and when we ran out of ammunition, we had to stay on it and wait for help. Just now one of us saw your convoy outside the city with a telescope, so we used the last three bullets to get your attention, but fortunately, although it has been over three years there, one bullet has finally been fired, and you are actually here. ”
Vincent motioned for them to put down their guns and said with a smile: "We can take you away, but we have our own team, if you go with us, you must listen to me, and we will take you away if you agree to this condition." ”
Gong Jihui did not hesitate, and immediately agreed: "No problem, anyway, now that the country is gone, who doesn't listen to it?" We are all soldiers and will obey your orders. Vincent nodded, told them to pack up their belongings, and hurried down as quickly as they could, while the zombies had not dispersed.
The downstairs was very smooth, except for a few sporadic zombies, there was no large army, and the ruthless methods of killing zombies with their bare hands provoked the group of airborne soldiers who followed them with a burst of amazement. After everyone arrived downstairs, they didn't say much, and after Gong Jihui and the others got into an empty troop carrier driven by Ma Yongjun, the expanded convoy embarked on a new journey again.
It was getting dark, and by a small river at the foot of the mountain, the convoy stopped and set up camp. Today's weather is not very good, since the convoy left Zhengcheng, the light rain has been falling non-stop. Fortunately, there were no zombies outside on a rainy day, at least everyone could sleep well at night, and the convoy surrounded the city in a big circle.
Now Vincent's fleet is quite large, with a total of 5 off-road vehicles, 2 fuel tankers, 2 trucks, 2 personnel carriers and 1 communication vehicle, a full 12 vehicles. At this time, Vincent found a new problem, that is, the tents were not enough, although some people slept in the car, and some women slept with their men, but there was still a lot of difference, especially today there were 6 new people, so he had to arrange two men to sleep in a tent, and then squeezed out three tents to distribute to the new airborne troops.
Ma Erkui and Li Yonghua dug a not very deep drainage ditch along the perimeter of the convoy in less than half an hour, and everyone lit a bonfire, no matter how strong the wind and rain outside, at least the camp was full of warmth.
After tidying up the camp, the group sat around the campfire, waiting for the meal to start and discussing the next move. Vincent looked around and saw that everyone was looking at him, this was a habit that had been cultivated for so long, it had always been Vincent who took the idea, they discussed and implemented it, and finally Vincent made a decision.
So he smiled and said, "After we came out of Wujiang City, we have been walking north, and we have deviated from our pre-set route. The next step is to go back to the original route, and tomorrow we will go all the way east, into the northern part of Jiangnan Province, and then turn around and go south again to open up a place to settle in the southern part of Jiangnan Province. ”
Everyone nodded after hearing this, this was originally their original plan, but at this time, Gong Jihui, who had just joined, suddenly said: "I object, Jiangnan Province has dense cities and a large population, and it is too dangerous to settle there, we will go all the way to the north, to the northern prairie, where the land is sparsely populated, and there are definitely not many zombies, when the time comes, we can graze, we can plant, and it is the most ideal place to settle there." ”
Hearing that someone objected, Vincent was secretly annoyed, but because he was a newcomer, Vincent was embarrassed to accuse him, he forcibly suppressed his annoyance and said calmly: "It is everyone's unanimous decision to go to Jiangnan Province, where there are dense waterways, as long as we pick a place facing the river, blow up the excess bridges, and only leave us in and out, and then clean up the zombies in that area, it will be a happy land." Moreover, there are many cities in the southern part of the Yangtze River, and they are also very densely distributed, so we have more hope of saving more survivors. ”
Gong Jihui shook his head and said, "You imagine it's beautiful, but what about reality?" So how long does it take to clear a large area of zombies? 1 month? 3 months? Or 1 year? Can you guarantee that there will be no casualties during the cleanup? ”
Vincent was slightly angry after hearing this: "You can't be too selfish, that's right, we people went to the prairie, and we can indeed live with peace of mind with our force, but what about those survivors who are waiting for rescue like you?" Don't go to save them? If we are so selfish, how can you sit here and drink hot coffee and eat barbecue to argue with me about this? ”
Wen Sen's words directly made Gong Jihui choked on a word, he pointed at Wen Sen for a long time before he spoke: "Okay, you are the boss here, I don't fight with you, but I reserve my opinion, I just want to say, now is a democratic society, either you are a dictator, or you want to be a dictator, but please don't use the lives of your subordinates to satisfy your selfish desires." I'm waiting to see what kind of face you look at when you encounter casualties during your so-called cleanup. Hum! ”
After saying that, he stopped talking and ate the dinner that had just been prepared on his plate. The group was all silent, and it was the first time that the convoy had been established to have a quarrel of this magnitude, which made everyone who were accustomed to obeying Vincent's orders a little overwhelmed for a while, and everyone's mood seemed to change as if it was the weather outside. Although Vincent didn't speak again, the bruised tendons on his clenched right hand betrayed his inner thoughts.
