Chapter 162: Drawbacks

All morning, Don Ji read in the living room as usual, because there was nothing special, he read quickly, the books that Kim gave him last time had been finished, and now he read all the books he found in the library himself.

Of course, Tang Ji doesn't read books to pass the time, he reads books to learn, learn how to train dogs, learn how to disassemble and repair various firearms, learn to drive flying cars, etc., of course, these are currently in the theoretical stage, because his injuries are not completely healed, and the conditions are not completely allowed, he has to stuff all this knowledge into his mind first, memorize all these complicated things, and when he starts to carry out actual training, then he will achieve the desired goal in his heart very quickly.

At noon, Don Guy left the room and went to Hillary's room in the middle of the library alone to have lunch with Hillary.

While waiting for the meal, the two discussed some construction plans, all of them asked and answered, the atmosphere seemed very weird, and when it was time to eat, the two of them stopped talking, and the atmosphere changed directly from weird to depressed, both of them had their own thoughts, and they both chose to be silent.

In Hillary's room, in the small living room, lunch was coming to an end.

Tang Ji, who was sitting opposite Hillary, put down the knife and fork in his hand, took out a tissue and wiped his hands, then picked up the juice, glanced at Hillary, who agreed to finish eating soon, raised his head and drank a big sip of juice, and after putting the cup down, Tang Ji said: "I'll go first, thank you for your lunch." ”

"You're welcome." Hillary lowered her head in response, picked up the last piece of beef on her plate, and put it in her mouth, without looking at Tanji.

"Boss, monitor the thirteenth report, there is a zombie group approaching 2.5 kilometers north of the headquarters." Hillary's walkie-talkie suddenly rang, and a thick man's voice came from inside.

Don Ji, who had already stood up, immediately sat back on the sofa and looked at Hillary, who glanced at him, quickly put down the knife and fork, took off the walkie-talkie from his waist, put it to his mouth and said, "Quantity!" ”

"The number of zombies in the No. 3 zombie group is conservatively estimated to be 150,000." Quick reply on the intercom.

"They're wandering?" Clinton asked quickly.

"The preliminary estimate should be, for the detection of any man-made signs." The other party replied.

"Whew...... That's good, you wait. Hillary breathed a sigh of relief, stood up as she spoke, walked quickly to the wall on the north side of the living room, and looked up at the very large map of Manhattan hanging on the wall, which drew a lot of messy things on the map, all of which were drawn by Hillary when she was thinking about the plan, and others couldn't understand what she was drawing. ”

"Understood!" The other replied, and there was no more sound.

Hillary put away the walkie-talkie, walked to the coffee table and sat down, picked up the cup and seemed to want to drink the orange juice inside, but after thinking about it, she put it down again, obviously suddenly out of mood, with her arms on her chest, she leaned back on the back of the sofa, tilted her head to look elsewhere, not knowing what she was thinking.

"Zombie Group Three? Explosion point six? Tang Ji, who was sitting opposite, crossed his hands and put them on the coffee table, leaned over slightly to look at Hillary, and asked in a deep voice, "What are those?" ”

In fact, there are many things here that Don Ji doesn't know very well, all he knows is what Hillary mentioned when he talked to him, after all, he is not the boss, he doesn't need to know everything, and Hillary doesn't need to tell him everything, here, there is only one person who knows everything, and that is Hillary!

Hillary turned her head, looked at Tang Ji for a pause and said: "According to the size of the zombie group, we have numbered the zombie group, the first zombie group is the largest, the second is the second, and so on, now the largest zombie group is south of Manhattan, that is, there were many explosions around the Chrysler Building, and the zombie group formed by luring, and the number of zombies in that zombie group has been close to 500,000...... The explosion point is a means of defense, and we have buried enough explosives in various parts of Manhattan to detonate the explosion point if a large zombie horde is close to it, so as to attract the zombies away. ”

Hillary didn't hide anything from Don Ji in this regard, this is not a particularly secret thing, since Don Ji asked, of course she has to say it briefly, after all, although the relationship between the two is very strange now, Tang Ji is still helping her, and he is still a friend and a helper.

"You can't do this often, have you thought about the consequences of doing this?" Don Guy thought for a moment and asked, ordinary people definitely don't understand why Don Guy asked like this, but Hillary understands, because the disadvantages of doing so have been revealed.

"I thought about it, I saw the consequences, zombie groups, bigger zombie groups, and more zombies." Hillary shook her head slightly and said, as if she was a little helpless, she paused and said: "I can't help it, sound attraction is the most effective, at least it can get us out of the threat temporarily, as for the rest, we can only take one step at a time." ”

Explosions can indeed lure away zombies, but they also have obvious drawbacks, the first is that explosions will cause several zombies to gather together and become a larger zombie group, which will become more threatening.

The second is......

Manhattan Island is elongated and surrounded by the East River, less than a kilometer wide on the East River, slightly wider but less than two kilometers on the West River, and on the east side of Manhattan Island is New York's Queens and Brooklyn boroughs, and to the west of Manhattan Island, New Jersey.

Standing on the shore of Manhattan Island, you can see the city across the river on the opposite side, which is really close.

There are many bridges and tunnels connecting Manhattan with the cities on both sides, there is a violent explosion on Manhattan Island, zombies are attracted, and they can enter Manhattan Island through various bridges or tunnels, Hillary has no plans to blow up the bridges and tunnels, because then it will be very inconvenient for her convoy to collect supplies and survivors to return to Manhattan Island, whether it is supplies or survivors, they can only rely on ships to transport.

It's the end of the world, the zombie-infested apocalypse, they are everywhere, Hillary has demarcated a separation zone here, and it's only two kilometers, and the exploration convoy that goes out, there is no safe area like a quarantine zone around it, it's in danger all the time, if there is no bridge or tunnel, the process of returning to Manhattan Island will become complicated, and the delay at the dock is enough for them to be surrounded and engulfed by zombies!

This is one of the reasons why Hillary has not blown up bridges and tunnels, but not all, there is another reason that makes her dare not make a decision, that is, since zombies can come to Manhattan Island through bridges and tunnels, they can naturally leave through bridges and tunnels, and zombies can be lured away, but there are too many things to take into account to lure away zombies on the entire island, there need to be enough explosives, suitable road conditions are needed to facilitate the evacuation of enforcement personnel, and of course, the safety of survivors must be ensured.

With the materials that Hillary now has, she can't carry out such a big operation, and as long as she doesn't decide to blow up the bridge, she can't do that, because if she succeeds in luring the zombies away, but can't blow up the bridge and tunnel, then the zombie herd can still come back.

At this time, Manhattan, because of several violent explosions, has caused some zombies in New Jersey, Brooklyn, Queens and other places to pour into Manhattan Island.

At noon that day, not long after Hillary Clinton gave the order, a violent explosion occurred in a skyscraper eight kilometers north of the United Nations headquarters, and the survivors living in the United Nations headquarters heard the explosion, but the sound was already very low, and they did not know what was happening.

For the use of sound to attract zombies, Hillary has tried many methods, only the attraction of the explosion sound is the strongest, and the other methods are very poor, and some even have no effect at all, for example, the air defense siren that people are most likely to think of, Hillary has tried, the speaker needs to be erected on the top of a tall building to effectively spread the sound, and it needs to be equipped with enough electricity, but the sound propagation distance is only three kilometers at most, and the zombies cannot identify the source of the sound at all, The whole sky is filled with the sound of air defense sirens, they do not know where the sound is coming from, they will become more confused.
