104 Expressing Opinions 2 (Silver League Plus 17)
"Captain Hong, try mine......" Seeing that there was no excitement to see, and there was not much time to rest, everyone dispersed, those who should eat eat, and those who should find shade to lie down will be. But one person didn't leave, but came to Hong Tao's side and handed over the cigarette case.
"Yo, Landi, you have a lot of research on Chinese culture, and you know how to smoke. But your choice of cigarette is not my appetite, and I am bored. Say, what do you want to do? Hong Tao looked at the cigarette case, but he didn't pick it up, it was a thin stick, and he didn't like to smoke. But Landi's efforts to follow the local customs are not in vain, and it can be regarded as an encouragement.
"I have just listened to your speeches, and I am deeply touched, and I also want to ask about this matter." Randy didn't smoke originally, but there were more smokers in the rescue team, especially the high-level basically smoked, and he took out the cigarette and sent it out first, and he could only smoke it for the convenience of communication.
In fact, not only did he learn, but several female members also started smoking. It's not to cater to the habits of leaders, it's just to relieve loneliness and fear of the unknown.
“…… No need to go around in circles, keep going! As soon as he heard this topic, Hong Tao quickly took the cigarette. The two Chinese treasures I took from the Qiaotou commissary are not complete, and the thin ones are not good to smoke and are better than smoking fake cigarettes.
"I wonder how the rescue team will work in the future...... Don't get me wrong, I'm not against you leading the way. Yes, I am an American, but the American system has also been improved step by step, and it was not like this at first. ”
After all, it's not the original goods that have been nurtured since childhood, Lan Di learns quite similarly, but he can't help but run into an old slippery head, and he leaked the bottom in a word, and he didn't even do the second temptation.
"If this is a true expression of intent, then I congratulate you on the convergence of our views on this subject. But don't be happy just yet, I can't answer your question right now. The reason is also to tell you, it is too big and too far, I can't see what lies ahead, and I can't determine the direction. The only thing we can do at the moment is to keep everyone alive and expand the team as much as possible, and only after we have figured out what is going on and what the world is like in general will we be able to answer your question. ”
Hong Tao basically told the truth, in the eyes of outsiders, he is a leader, leading dozens of people, he dare not say that he is also majestic and majestic. It seems that everything is known, everything can be solved, and everything is difficult.
In fact, most of them are illusions, he is essentially no different from the other survivors, they are all lucky, they are all in a state of confusion, they all need to find the right path, and they all need to live.
The reason for the superficial illusion is nothing more than that he is bolder, easier to use, knows more life skills, and has a deeper understanding of human nature, nothing more.
Compared with the judgment of the future, the same is unaware, and the same is helpless, and can only take one step at a time. This is a statement of high emotional intelligence, in other words, it is resigned to fate, and whether you can survive depends on whether God rewards your face or not.
There doesn't need to be much frustration and suffering, as long as these sources of infection that can turn people into monsters mutate and mutate a little, and then spread through the air, he can only watch his companions die one by one, and he can't be infected faster than others.
“…… Things may not be as pessimistic as you think. Indeed, when the disaster first happened, I also despaired, as if it was the end of the world, and I could turn into a monster at any moment. But through my observation these days, I feel that the monsters are not so scary, as long as the survivors can unite like us, it is likely that the final victory will be humans! ”
But these truths are too pessimistic to hear to Landi's ears, he is not an optimist, and he is generally more rational. Because of this, I feel that it is entirely possible that the future days will be better day by day.
It's not that I think it's a conclusion made through observation and logical analysis. That's right, the number of zombies is huge, and almost all the survivors can be described as thousands of miles compared to them.
But zombies have no intelligence, not even ordinary mammals, and are completely dominated by some kind of instinct. Even if they can use solar energy for energy, they don't need to eat or drink, and they can even live forever. But as long as their IQ doesn't improve by leaps and bounds, sooner or later they will be wiped out by humans, and this time will not be too long.
At present, there are only more than 30 people in the rescue team, half of whom are women and children, but they can already trap and kill hundreds of zombies in a planned and targeted manner, and they are unscathed. If you can continue to expand this group, when the number of members reaches hundreds or more, the speed of cleaning up zombies will be faster.
At the same time, having enough people is equivalent to having a variety of skills. When the time comes, it is certainly not a dream to use existing resources to restore part of the power and then small-scale production, nor is it a dream to completely occupy cities or some important factories and mining enterprises, and long-distance sports are not yet a dream.
If this is the case, it is certainly not a dream for mankind to restore the army, the government, and order from a little bit to a single area, and from several pieces to a region.
In the face of modern armies and weapons, the numerical superiority of zombies seems to be gone. There are so many arsenals and so many weapons of mass destruction in the world, and any random point is enough for a zombie to drink a pot.
It doesn't need to be too high-end, get an airplane to lay mines, use minefields to tighten the encirclement of zombies step by step, and then have a World War II-level carpet bombing, and you can quickly clear out more areas.
At that time, the difference is nothing more than the earth with a population of 7 billion and the earth with a population of 10 million, and the recovery rate will definitely take decades, but human civilization will basically not be affected, or even regress, and the word temporary stagnation is more appropriate.
"Well, you're quite optimistic, I hope it......" Hong Tao originally thought that this well-informed visa officer could say something different, but he didn't expect to be the same as Zhang Tao and Pan Wenxiang.
The ancients didn't speculate for more than half a sentence, and they couldn't come up with any evidence anyway, so it didn't make sense to just talk about fiction and fiction. Even if your mouth is itchy, that's what you need to talk about after dinner.
"What are you worried about? Was there anything I didn't expect? "Lan Di is not Zhang Tao, he is very sensitive to the perfunctory perception of Hong Tao.
"Whew...... It's simple, for example. If you arrive at the embassy and you suddenly find that there is a group of survivors looking for weapons. The two sides are about the same strength, and they don't want to join us, and we don't want to join them because we don't understand. What should you do in such a situation? ”
Hong Tao smoked the thin cigarette with only three puffs, and it was not that he finished sucking, but that the filter was deflated, and there was a strong smell of tar. I wanted to end this conversation, but seeing Lan Di's serious discussion, I felt that it was too perfunctory and a little disrespectful, so I had to take out another box of Chinese in my pocket again, unpack it, and put it on. Fake cigarettes are fake cigarettes, it's better than a cigarette with no strength at all.
"It's simple, the two sides divide the weapons equally!" Randy gave the answer without even thinking about it, and shrugged his shoulders, expressing disdain for the question.
"I'm not happy, I'm not happy to get half of the weapons after so many days of effort. So I took advantage of the unpreparedness of the men, and fired at them, killing some of them, and killing some of the prisoners, and all the weapons were mine, and the men were mine. ”
As a spicy taste rushed into his throat, Hong Tao felt much better under the influence of nicotine, at least he didn't think about the guy who ate people and ran away, and then grinned and continued to ask questions to Randy.
“…… This, this...... Why? Looking at the face of the man in front of him with crooked lips, one high and one low, laughing instead of laughing, crying but no tears, Lan Di suddenly felt very strange.
Although they have known each other for less than half a month, this man has never shown such an evil expression before. Yes, it was evil, and it was clear from the smile that all the assumptions he said could become true.
"Why? Think about it...... Because I need manpower, because I need weapons, because I don't have enough to eat in the morning, because I'm in a bad mood because I have hemorrhoids...... Why is it important? Even if I don't do it, can you guarantee that the other party won't? If you can't, then I'll have to. I can't put my life and that of my companions on the promises of strangers. Don't forget, there's no place to reason now, and there's no restraint. They won't even say sorry after they beat me to death, and they have to spit if they can't keep me, and they will scold stupid! ”
One why, let Hong Tao's opinion of Landi be lowered by another notch. This military service is considered to be in vain, and the visa officer has also been trained in vain, how can it be as simple as the Boy Scouts, no wonder it is so optimistic.
If the survivors of the world can be like him, not to mention that one in ten thousand humans survives, even if it is one in 100,000, then it is human beings who will win in the end. But the question is, is this possible? If possible, there is no need to wait until now, human beings have already established a global village, and they have rushed to the sea of stars without any worries.
“…… Oops, I'm still not quite used to the current situation! Yes, you're right, how to reach agreement is a huge problem. Is there a solution other than killing? ”
Hearing Hong Tao's answer, Randy immediately fell into deep thought, and hit the back of his head with his fist while pondering. He was a bachelor, admitting his mistakes was smoother than gasping, and then lit a cigarette and continued to ask questions.
“…… It may be easier to merge with a disadvantaged group, but the chances are not high, and the team that can survive and develop in the moment will not be too weak. Do you guess that when a few strangers with special abilities get together, is there a greater chance of uniting or a greater chance of guarding against each other? I think it's very assertive and hard to convince anyone who is strong, and the chances of uniting are very low unless there is a great crisis! ”
Hong Tao could feel that Lan Di was not asking casually, he was really planning for the future, whether it was for his own interests or not, it was worth saying a few more words. Compared to him, many people in the rescue team haven't even thought carefully about this kind of question, don't ask, they just can't think that far ahead, it's too annoying, and so on.
