Chapter Seventy-Five: Custer's Education

"yes, let me see." Shen Chao took out his FIVE-SEVEN pistol, returned the magazine and handed it to him. The skinny boy picked up the gun, did an aiming motion, and then changed a magazine at Shen Chao's request. Shen Chao took a look, although it was not standard, but the child in front of him did know how to use a pistol.

Although, in the strict sense of the word, the child in front of him does not know how to use a pistol "correctly". But fighting a dozen zombies who move slowly and can't maneuver greatly is enough to buy himself time to escape.

It is a little-known fact that 90 percent of the world's people who use handguns do so in the wrong or partially wrong way. The methods used by most people with pistols have a wide variety of tactical flaws. Grip posture, aiming method, correct way to change magazines...... There are so many things that can go wrong.

I think that when Shen Chao was in the third echelon, Fisher spent two days of course just to teach them the correct way to use various pistols. A group of elites were embarrassed to find that they themselves did not know how to use their pistols correctly.

That's why Shen Chao knew as soon as he looked at the movements of the boy in front of him that the person who taught him to shoot was probably also a layman who didn't know much about guns, although the boy used the posture of holding the gun with both hands, but the method of combining the two hands was completely wrong, and it could not control the recoil at all. And the way he changed the magazine was full of mistakes. But again: at least he will use it, and he will not let the bullet hit him. This is enough for Shen Chao and them.

"Listen carefully, kids, we'll soon be setting up a safe zone here to receive a group of survivors. And now, you are the only survivors in this stadium. So when we leave, you're in charge of guarding the stadium. What's the problem now? Shen Chao felt that there was no problem with his expression, so when he asked this, he actually didn't expect the few half-grown children in front of him to ask questions.

However, he apparently forgot about the curiosity and intellectual curiosity of children of this age and, of course, more importantly, military literacy.

"You're leaving, what are we going to do?" The kid who got the pistol asked, and his question was fairly normal. But that's not the case with other kids.

"When are we going to eat?" We haven't had lunch yet, have we? The tall girl from earlier asked.

"What about these zombies, can't you move them somewhere else?" A chubby child next to him who didn't have any sense of zài asked. Shen Chao was thundered by these two questions, while Custer was even more crisp, he was enraged.

"Listen up, kids. We're not your damn parents, so if there's a problem, we'll figure it out ourselves. "Custer really can't stand such a pampered child, he is not like Shen Chao, there was a short period of secondary adolescence, he was an elite who grew up in the military school, and he is not used to seeing this delicate flower of the democratic and free world.

"Alright, Custer, you're scaring them. You are angry, this is not Russia, these are not your compatriots, you can't be angry. Shen Chao persuaded that he understood the thinking of a pure soldier like Custer, but he didn't fully agree with it. Children will always make all kinds of secondary two behaviors and ask strange questions. But that's not always their fault.

"And you, kids. We don't have time to solve your current problems, there are still many people out there who need our help, and we will bring them and other supplies before we can start eating. Until then, you'll have to figure it out for yourselves. Shen Chao patiently explained, although he instinctively wanted to get out of here quickly, carry out the next step of the plan, and find Alice early. But there is still a little bit of conscience in his heart, which requires him to at least tell these children what to do before leaving. …,

"Don't you have any food with you?" The tall girl continued.

"Yes, but why should we give it to you?" Custer replied angrily, and as he spoke, he took out a pack of Russian officer's version of portable rations that he bought in Shen Chao's world.

......The girl didn't know what to say, but her eyes were fixed on the rations in Custer's hand, and her action made Shen Chao think that this little girl might not even have eaten breakfast.

"It's okay to want my food, but you need to do something for us." Custer said and took out a few more packets of rations.

"What's the matter?" "The children's attention is captivated.

"See the dead zombies outside, carry them to the grass, pile them together, and burn them." "Custer didn't feel at all that there was anything wrong with his request.

"What, those corpses? "When the kids heard this, they stopped doing it.

"They were too heavy for us to lift. ”

"It's disgusting, I ......" The children expressed their opinions, and none of them were willing to carry the corpse.

"You can do it yourself, and it will take at least two or three hours for us to come back." Until then, it's up to you to decide what to do with the corpses. Custer didn't persuade him again, and then he put the portable rations in his backpack in front of the children.

Finally, the girl couldn't resist the temptation and agreed to help him move the bodies. Half an hour later, looking at the fire composed of dozens of corpses in front of him, and the tired children next to him, Shen Chao couldn't help but admire Custer in his heart, he didn't know that his partner was so good at dealing with children.

Before leaving, Shen Chao told the children in front of him some precautions, such as keeping quiet, such as turning on the lights in the gymnasium before nightfall. However, he sadly found that the children were all focused on Custer with the food.

"When will you be back, sir?" The tall girl asked, having just received a pack of portable rations from Custer.

"If we are a qiē shun lì, we will be able to come back before dark, but if we don't, we may not be back until after nightfall." Until then, you'll have to take care of each other......" Custer explained surprisingly not impatiently.

"What if someone else wants to come in?" The boy with the pistol asked.

"Leave them alone, it's too dangerous to open the door before we get back, and you don't have the keys." Custer was telling the truth, the chains they used to lock the doors were from the SUV they found, and it looked like the type used to load and unload heavy loads. It has the thickness of a baby's arm and is quite strong.

"Alright, that's all, we'll be back in a few hours." After saying this, Custer and Shen Chao left the stadium. The children followed his instructions to eat lunch in the locker room where they were. They also locked the door to the gymnasium outside.

"Where did you learn how to deal with children?" Shen Chao asked as he got into the car.

"If you spend 10 years in a military school, you can easily keep the children's attention," Custer said, getting into the driver's seat.

Soon, they drove to the most densely populated residential area in Raccoon City. It's on the edge of Raccoon City, and many of the people who lived here have left the city.

Looking at the empty street in front of them, the two could only listen to the police's channel, trying to find some clues, but I don't know if they expected them to listen, the police in Raccoon City adjusted the frequency to several different channels, which somewhat interfered with the monitoring of the two, but they still got some useful information. …,

For example, the army had arrived, a whole airborne division had arrived in the vicinity two hours earlier, and all access out of the city had been blocked an hour earlier. Also, Matt, who was fooled before, is now also under house arrest in the police station by his "men". Now the command of the police is chaotic, and the various squads are scattered all over the city, almost fighting separately to deal with the growing number of zombies.

After getting the news, they listened to the channel of the US military again. The electronic warfare capability of the US military in this era is not strong, and it is completely powerless in the face of cutting-edge surveillance technology twenty years later. Soon they intercepted a lot of information about the army's deployment, and marked their location on the electronic map on their HUD.

Finally, they recorded an interesting command. Both men thought that this order would significantly increase the success rate of their operation.

The two drove around the nearby city to an army blockade not far from here, where residents from all over the city were stopped, numbering thousands, a small number of whom had been bitten or scratched and infected with the virus. Gunshots rang out from time to time in the crowd, and a dozen or so police officers were here trying to maintain order and eliminate those who had been transformed into zombies. The scene was chaotic.

If it weren't for the fact that it's still afternoon, and there are no walls around, barbed wire, or anything, it would have looked a bit like a scene from the movie Gen 2.

However, the army is the army, and although they received orders to kill trespassers, these soldiers wearing chemical protective suits and gas masks are still very responsible. They were reluctant to shoot at the crowd, and when they received the order, they simply parked their tanks and armored vehicles in the middle of the road and formed two human walls in front of them to block the passage of the crowd.

To calm the crowd, an army major stood on a tank and announced the president's quarantine order into the crowd with a megaphone. And asked people to return to the city and wait for rescue.

Of course, his words have no effect, because people always think about things according to their own subjective assumptions. This is especially true in stressful environments. As direct victims of this crisis, the residents of Raccoon City are reluctant to return to the city.
