Chapter 54: Hardhearted
The siege of the city is indeed a mess of porridge, in the case of the important people in the siege have left the city, the strong command has been lost, the people besieging the city will only be like scattered sand, and like headless flies, some people fled, some people went to fight the fire, the scene was out of control.
The only person who is currently the tallest in the siege is Ding Baozhong, and at this time he dispatched all the soldiers and warriors he could use to put out the fire with all his might.
Thinking about it with your toes, you also know what it means to have an explosion and fire in a warehouse.
The car climbed the slope and was not blocked at the city gates, and there was not a single soldier on the tall walls, empty.
After Lan Xi drove the car into the city gate, Zhou Hongqiang said loudly: "Go back to the courtyard." ”
The car turned around and drove in the direction of the courtyard. Along the way, you can see some panicked people from time to time, they are running through the streets, some people are holding buckets and basins, shouting to each other to go to fight the fire, in the face of this catastrophe, it is a matter of survival, they have to huddle together.
Zhou Zheng was a little unbearable and said, "Father, are we ......?"
"Go home!"
Zhou Hongqiang seemed to turn a blind eye, and then closed his eyes.
Who could be more heartbroken and angry with him?
The siege was built by him, and the sadness and hardship at the beginning were unimaginable to outsiders. With those who survived, he fought day and night, building the siege from scratch, brick by brick. Not only that, but also take time to sweep away the strange beasts near the besieged city, kill the strange beasts that pose a threat to humans, and expel them.
Countless days and nights of fighting, from the establishment of this city to the reclamation of tens of thousands of acres of farmland, which point has not penetrated his hard work?
But now, the appearance of the betrayer has forcibly destroyed this qiē.
Zhou Hongqiang's heartache, how can outsiders understand? It was dripping blood, and it seemed that there were countless knives on his body, cutting one by one.
Soon, the car was parked in front of the courtyard.
Zhou Zheng carried Zhou Hongqiang down, the guards on the courtyard were still there, and when he saw Zhou Hongqiang covered in blood, he immediately greeted him: "Leader, how are you, leader?" Zhou Hongqiang said lightly: "It's okay, you continue your work." ”
Entering the courtyard, Huber was informed and rushed out.
"Master, you're back, this ...... What's going on? Seeing Zhou Hongqiang's tragic situation, Hu Bo was shocked and his face was pale, and his heart, which had just become a mess, intensified. The current siege is completely out of control, he thought that Zhou Hongqiang would be able to stabilize the situation when he came back, but now he is afraid that it will fail.
Once the people outside know that the leader is seriously injured, I am afraid that the scene will get even more out of control.
Zhou Hongqiang smiled lightly, "Uncle Hu, I'm fine." You go down first. ”
The latter sentence was addressed to Lancey and the maids who came around.
After the maids all retreated, Zhou Hongqiang's face suddenly became stern, and he said to Hu Bo: "Hu Bo, prepare the helicopter." ”
Hearing this, Huber had a dull look on his face.
Even Zhou Zheng was stunned on his face, he didn't know that there were helicopters in the siege at all. You must know that in the new world, a slow, loud flying machine like a helicopter is completely a live target in front of mutated flying alien beasts, and it can't fly far at all.
From Zhou Hongqiang's expression, it seemed that only he and Hu Bo knew about this helicopter.
"Master, is there really no way to recover the situation? We can completely extinguish the fire, and the remaining food will be enough to last until the autumn harvest. The grain outside the city can be harvested in a month, and the residents have some surplus grain in their homes. Huber spoke quickly.
Zhou Hongqiang shook his head, "Uncle Hu, you don't understand, the situation is not as simple as you see, Yu Jianzhong and Yan Chuan betrayed the besieged city, they attracted a huge group of poisonous corpses, and Yan Chuan was on the verge of death, destroying the food in the besieged city." Originally, there was food for the siege, and with the topography of the siege, the group of poisonous corpses was powerful, but we at least had a chance. ”
Sighing, Zhou Hongqiang's face appeared haggard: "But now that the grain is ruined, do you think that under the impact and trampling of the poisonous corpse, the wheat at the foot of the mountain will still be saved?" ”
The food consumption of tens of thousands of people is definitely a terrible number, and the remaining food simply cannot provide so many people.
What Zhou Hongqiang didn't say was that the poisonous corpses were far more terrifying than he imagined, and from the telescope, you could see some giant high-level poisonous corpses, and their combat effectiveness, Zhou Hongqiang was the most experienced. A high-level poisonous corpse is enough to give people a headache, their strength, more than ten meters high siege, is not enough for them to collide a few times, and they will collapse.
In the entire besieged city, only the warriors of the fifth stage barely managed to resist them.
But among the poisonous corpses, there are even more terrible poisonous corpses...... How to stop them?
Maybe Yu Jianzhong and Yan Chuan didn't know that from the moment the poisonous corpse arrived, the fate of the siege was doomed. In the face of such a powerful force, the siege is just a small settlement, the number of warriors is limited, and the number of high-ranking warriors is even less, what can be done to stop them?
In their plan, it was enough to attract only a small number of ordinary poisonous corpses to lure Zhou Hongqiang out of the city.
I really didn't expect that what they attracted was ruin.
Hu Bo didn't say anything more, gritted his teeth: "Master, I'll go right away, and I can take off in half an hour at most." ”
Zhou Hongqiang closed his eyes and nodded, and sighed heavily.
Zhou Zheng seemed to realize something, and his eyes widened: "Father, you ...... Do you want to give up the siege? But...... But the tens of thousands of residents here, they ...... What do they do? "Zhou Zheng, who was just an otaku in his previous life, can be ruthless to the enemy, but when faced with such a big decision, he still feels dizzy.
"What if you don't give up, will you be ruined with it?"
With endless vicissitudes of life, Zhou Hongqiang seemed to have aged ten years all of a sudden, "You can also prepare." ”
……
In the room, Zhou Zheng was sitting in front of the balcony, his head was in chaos, and his whole body seemed to be drained.
Zhou Zheng, whose predecessor was just an otaku, suddenly faced with this situation involving tens of thousands of people, it was simply unacceptable.
The huge impact challenged his bottom line of human nature, which was more like an interrogation.
This is a catastrophe that could have been avoided, a catastrophe of man-made making. Could it be that a person's heart of rights can really make them ignore a single life? The madness of Yu Jianzhong and Yan Chuan is driven by huge ambitions. In particular, Yan Chuan's final madness is the fundamental reason for the real qiē.
"I shouldn't have killed Yan Baixun."
Endless regret, Zhou Zheng knew that this was a straw that crushed Yan Chuan's madness, if Yan Baixun was still alive, or Yan Chuan would not be so crazy, he detonated the explosives in the siege.
The food is still there, and there is still hope for the siege.
Now that the food has been blown up, the impact on the besieging residents is huge and desperate. Once the poisonous corpse arrives in the city, how can people who have lost the spirit of resistance be able to resist it?
There was a knock at the door, and a maid pushed it in, carrying a glass of boiling water.
"Young master, drink water."
The maid put the water down, and Zhou Zheng moved his dry throat and picked up the water glass.
Still in the midst of Zhou Zheng's sorrow, he suddenly felt a strong drowsiness hitting his head, allowing him to insist on cleaning up, but this instantaneous strong drowsiness made him irresistible, and when he stood up, he staggered, rushed to the bed in a few steps, and fell into a state of sleep.
Downstairs.
Zhou Hongqiang muttered: "Zheng'er, don't blame your father. ”
What he was fiddling with in his hand was a bottle of sleeping pills, and the amount he put in Zhou Zheng's cup would only allow him to sleep well without causing harm.
Throwing the bottle into the trash, Zhou Hongqiang leaned on his crutches, stood up, and limped out of the room.
