Chapter 118: Survivor besieged by zombies
On the third day after arriving at the gold mining base, all the villages and towns, gas stations, and rest stations within a radius of more than ten kilometers were all cleaned by the soldiers.
Of course, there were not many materials collected, but under the command of Shen Bai, these looted buildings were converted into outposts by the soldiers.
After the surrounding area was basically all searched, Shen Bai shifted his attention to the urban area of Penglai City.
As a county-level city in Dongshan Province, although the population of Penglai City is far less than that of a provincial capital like Nanxi City, the resident population is close to one million, and the scale of the entire urban area is still very good.
Even if the end of the world has broken out for more than a month, there must be still a lot of material resources that can be scavenged in the urban area, and there will be many survivors.
Although the urban area was only more than 50 kilometers away from the Zhangjia Gold Mine, where Shen Bai was currently located, Shen Bai set off with his soldiers to Penglai City to search for supplies.
After all, the urban area is different from the sparsely populated countryside, with tens of thousands of corpses, highly evolved T2 and T3 zombies, and all kinds of powerful mutant beasts, even the soldiers, there is no way to guarantee that they can face these monsters without damage.
Although Shen Bai is a commander, after all, he has been injected with genetic drugs, coupled with the Type 10 anti-materiel sniper rifle, his combat effectiveness can be regarded as the ceiling level, and with him accompanying him, he can effectively avoid casualties among the soldiers.
There were about 100 troops who went out with Shen Bai, and the rest stayed at the base, while Ida Wang sat in the base to coordinate the overall situation instead of Shen Bai.
More than a dozen off-road vehicles, several Dongfeng heavy trucks and fuel tankers composed of a convoy of vehicles drove towards the city.
Entering the urban area, for Shen Bai and the soldiers, is already familiar with the old rules, the off-road vehicle in front of the road to explore the road, found that there are a large number of abandoned vehicles blocking the road and cannot pass, or there are a large number of corpses, so they notify the heavy trucks and other large vehicles in the rear, and drive around the road.
The off-road convoy detoured two main roads and finally made its way into the city, but passed several supermarkets along the way to nothing.
These small, medium-sized supermarket stores are basically in a state of being looted, which also proves that there are survivors in Penglai City, and there are quite a few of them.
"Bang! Bang! Bang! ”
A burst of gunfire rang out from the street in the distance, attracting Shen Bai's attention.
"It's the sound of a pistol shooting! And it's not just a pistol. Shen Bai looked at the direction the voice came from, his eyes narrowed slightly.
Normally, survivors in the city will not shoot easily, because the movement of gunfire tends to attract more zombies. Unless, unless, the situation is critical and urgent.
Judging from the intensity of the gunshots, Shen Bai could tell that those survivors should be in trouble.
"The first team, the second team, follow me on foot to see the situation, and the other troops are on standby."
Shen Bai thought for a moment and said to the soldiers beside him.
Judging from the sound of gunshots, the location of the other party is not far from them, at most there are only a few streets, and the movement of driving is relatively large, and it is more appropriate to walk.
In just a dozen seconds, Shen Bai and the soldiers crossed several streets and came to the location where the gunshots rang out.
Stopping, Yuyu turned the corner, and Shen Bai saw a large number of zombies on the street.
There are really a lot of zombies on this street, Shen Bai glanced at it, and there were four or five hundred, and the zombies were besieging a store on the side of the street.
Shen Bai couldn't see the situation over there, but the sound of gunfire came from inside the store, and the zombies were all moving in that direction.
Four or five hundred zombies, for ordinary survivors, may be quite a large number, but for the soldier troops, it is nothing at all.
Shen Bai thought for a moment before making a decision.
"Whew!"
"Brother Yan! I'm running out of bullets!"
"I'm out of ammo here! What should I do?"
The anxious screams of his partner hiding behind the container of the pharmacy made Li Yan's heart sink.
Finished! It's completely over!
Trapped in this kind of pharmacy, all the zombies outside, and there is not much ammunition left, no matter how you look at it, this is already a situation of ten deaths!
The current situation was something he had never expected before!
"Damn! If I had known, I shouldn't have taken this risk!"
Before the outbreak of the apocalypse, Li Yan was a security captain who worked as a security guard in a high-end community, and it was precisely because of this job that he had better judgment and physical fitness than ordinary people, and survived the zombie virus outbreak for the first time.
Since then, he has struggled to survive in the apocalypse, slowly meeting some other survivors, and forming a small survivor camp of more than a dozen people.
Originally, they had always strictly followed the code of action of being cautious and never taking risks, and they had never encountered much danger, and basically they would not venture to this kind of street with more zombies.
However, there is a small child in the camp who has a sudden acute meningitis and a high fever that does not go away, and if he is left alone, his life is likely to be in danger! In order to save people, Li Yan had to set his sights on this street where there were many zombies, because this was the place where he could find a few pharmacies that had not yet been looted.
Medicine, in the last days, there is usually no food, weapons are important, but once you are sick, the lack of medicine is much worse than starvation!
In order to successfully obtain medicine for this operation, Li Yan made a very rigorous plan, first asking other survivors to lure away the zombies on the street, then using tools to break down the doors and windows to enter the pharmacy, and finally quickly collecting drugs for the treatment of meningitis and then immediately withdrawing.
Plans are seamless, but plans often don't keep up with changes.
Li Yan didn't expect that such a small pharmacy on the downtown street would also install an anti-theft alarm system, and the moment the door was broken, the piercing alarm bell rang throughout the street!
When Li Yan and the others reacted and quickly dismantled the alarm system, it was too late.
Hearing the sound of the corpses returning, Li Yan and the others had no choice but to lock the door of the pharmacy and then hide in the pharmacy, hoping to wait for the partners outside to lure away the zombies again and then wait for an opportunity to escape.
But something worse happened!
In the small warehouse of the pharmacy, there is actually a zombie!
Originally, because the pharmacy was locked, Li Yan and the others didn't expect that there would be zombies inside, and they couldn't prevent the next partner from being bitten! In order to save this companion, Li Yan was forced to shoot the zombie, but his location was completely exposed.
The zombies began to frantically attack the doors and windows of the pharmacy, and Li Yan and the others could only shoot back to delay time.
But in fact, Li Yan's heart knew that they were just barely surviving at this time, and even if they delayed for a long time, it would be meaningless, because there would be no reinforcements at all.
There are only a few people outside who are responsible for attracting zombies, and there are no decent weapons, these four or five hundred zombies are not something they can deal with at all!
Bang!
Finally, the sturdy anti-theft door couldn't withstand the endless stream of zombies, and the door bolt was broken alive! Fortunately, Li Yan and the others had blocked all the containers in the pharmacy at the door in advance, and the zombies could only stretch their arms in for a while, scratching indiscriminately.
