1157 The Rise of New Forces
Roughly calculated, this road will take more than 2,000 kilometers, most of which is mountainous, and it will not be able to walk for three months on just two feet. But in fact, Hong Tao, Juma and Alixie have hardly traveled in person since Yesanpo except for moving their bodies and taking a walk every day.
There are zombies here, who still walks by themselves. Hong Tao first tied a back frame with a tree branch and let the zombies carry him on his back. But after using it for a day, I found that my face always had to rush back, which affected my vision and felt uncomfortable.
Simply found a steel pipe and a sofa from the village and tied it together as a sliding rod, and sat on it for the zombies to carry away. The sofa was still a double seat, he sat with Juma, and Alikshay sat on his own.
The weight of 100 kilograms is a little bit of pressure for zombies, but it can be overcome, and a group of four walks briskly on the mountain road, changing every hour, without affecting physical fitness and travel speed at all.
When more and more blue devils were discovered, the palanquin drivers were all replaced by these blue and quiet guys. They are tougher than mules and horses, two can do the work of four zombies, and they only need to be changed once a day, twenty-four hours a day. If the sun is sufficient, you don't need to change shifts for two or three days in a row, and you can still walk like a fly.
After crossing the Yellow River, Hong Tao rested for a few days at the car factory in SY City. I found two SUV shells with intact glass and no serious rust, welded to the girders of the off-road vehicles, and carried by four blue devils.
This sliding rod has been changed to move the palace, the wind can't blow and the rain can't get wet, eating, drinking and living can be done in the carriage, and you can also engage in strenuous exercise with Juma while moving forward.
No matter how rough the road is, there is the Blue Devil's intelligent adaptive shock absorption system, which is more stable than nitrogen shock absorption, electromagnetic levitation, and complete lighting, sound, and wipers!
Of course, it's not all about enjoying the fun along the way, Juma and Alexei are figuring out the skills to control the zombies every day, and have conducted preliminary training on more and more zombie teams, mainly in formation.
Horizontal columns, stragglers, one-word long snake formations, two dragons out of the water formation, heaven and earth three talent formations, four doors to the bottom of the formation, plum blossom formation, mandarin duck formation, anyway, the ancient marching formation method he remembered in his mind was practiced one by one.
The zombies don't know how to be annoyed, and they don't feel bitter, with the active cooperation of the living corpse dogs, the formation change is becoming more and more familiar, and there is a small success before entering the zombie control area. It is more than ten times stronger than any honor guard in the world in terms of changing formation speed, uniformity, and prohibition, as long as you think of it, you can basically do it!
For the remaining two months, Hong Tao has been fishing in a resort near Damao Mountain on the west bank of Taihu Lake, but Juma and Alexei are hardly idle.
The two of them led dozens of blue devils and living corpse dogs respectively, and went to Hangzhou and Shanghai in the palace, with only one purpose, to gather local zombies, how much can be controlled, first go to Nanjing and Zhenjiang to train nearby, and wait for the opportunity to cross the river.
What time to wait? Of course, the two encirclement and suppression groups in the north and south are in place. Hong Tao has always maintained radio contact with Zhou Yuan on the road, and there are also radio stations that can receive the clear-code messages of the Human Survivors Alliance, basically grasping the changes in the past few months.
For Gao Tianyi's plan to draw salary from the bottom of the kettle, he admired it from the bottom of his heart, it was too ruthless and too thorough. As soon as this trick came out, it basically cut off his own way of life, and completely cut off the hope of sympathy and supporters.
Justification? If the justification could be useful, Saddam Hussein and Gaddafi would not have been abandoned by the whole world. The Human Survivors Alliance must believe in the rhetoric of the new chairman of the Asian region, even if he has doubts, knowing that Gao Tianyi is doing **** when he says this, he will not stand up and say even half a word of justice for himself.
The reason is very simple, the East Asian Alliance is under the control of Gao Tianyi, which is more advantageous to support him and support himself, except for fools, no one can't tell the difference.
Justice? Axiom? The truth...... These terms are just rhetoric invented by those in power to deceive the bottom, but as long as one word works, 90 percent of the wars and contradictions in human society will be easily solved.
In this case, no matter how much you spit on Xingzi, not only will it not work, but you will also be subjected to all kinds of cynicism and swearing. Alien is different, mutant is mutant, the only thing in this world that can change Zhou Yuan's situation is not reason, but fists.
As long as the fist is hard enough, let the chairmen of the continents kneel on the ground and shout that they are kissing their father, and they will not hesitate. As long as the East Asian Alliance can be taken back from Gao Tianyi's hands, no one will worry about whether Zhou Yuan and their group are mutants.
At that time, it only needs to make another statement, and Gao Tianyi and his accomplices will soon become mutants again, saying that they will be infected with whatever they infect, which is also an indefatigable fact. Even if everyone knows in their hearts that it's not, they have to say yes, and after a long time, they feel yes in their hearts!
Of course, the title of mutant on his head will definitely not be eliminated for a lifetime, and it will be further confirmed. No matter how big the fist is and how many people shout Dad, as long as there is a chance, there will still be countless people who will find a way to resist.
So I don't plan to wash my reputation and return to the human community. What happened to the zombies? Compared with humans, they didn't even bother to kill themselves once, let alone fight to the death for leadership.
In this respect, the virus should be more civilized. Since their birth, they have had a strict distribution of ranks, and those in high positions do not trample on the interests of the bottom at will, and those at the bottom do not think about how to break the rules and the upper positions, and each has its own responsibilities, closely cooperates, and needs each other.
Speaking of the grade of the virus, it is another research result of Alexei in the past three months. This guy's understanding of the virus has been increasing day by day since the mutation, and he is no longer limited to studying the properties in a narrow sense, but has begun to understand it comprehensively from a macro perspective.
He believes that among the substances discovered so far, the mysterious substance in Hong Tao's body has the highest level, but this substance and viruses are obviously not in the same category and belong to surreal existences.
The next thing is that the virus in Juma's body has the highest level of evolution, which is manifested in the strength of consciousness. If two people give different instructions together, the zombies they receive will not hesitate for a moment, and immediately execute Juma's, ignoring themselves, even if they are closer.
Further down is the virus in his own body, followed by the living corpses, living corpses, blue devils, and normal zombies. But there is a hierarchy difference between living corpses and living corpses, and there is also such a relationship between living corpses and living corpses. The principle, he can't give accurate data at the moment, and can only guess based on the phenomenon that it is related to the evolutionary level of the virus.
Hong Tao doesn't care too much about the attributes of the virus, anyway, no matter how he studies himself, he is an outlier. But he can use the level of the virus to serve himself, for example, when forming an army of zombies, the original hierarchical relationship will play a big role.
If it was all up to Juma and Alexei to command with consciousness, the maximum range of the zombie army would only be about two kilometers in radius, and the number could not be too many. But with the hierarchy, this problem is perfectly solved.
Juma and Alexei don't need to personally control each zombie, they only need to control the living corpse dogs, and these guys will pass orders to the living corpses, so that the range and number of controllable ones will be infinitely superimposed, forming an effective command system.
To put it bluntly, Hong Tao is a low-level commander who uses living corpse dogs and living corpses, and regards the evolution level of the virus as a military rank and position. Juma and Alexei should be considered the commanders of the group army, and he himself is the nominal commander of the three armies, the largest and most wasteful officer, and a zombie cannot command.
But a commander is a commander, standing tall and seeing far. He felt that the domestication of the living dog was a bit long, and the target on the battlefield was relatively large, and the demand for food was also higher, and too many of them would increase the pressure on logistics and supplies.
So the Supreme Commander took his head to heart, and easily invented the living corpse cat and the living corpse mouse. Especially the latter, the amount is simply inexhaustible, and the amount of blood required and the difficulty of domestication are much smaller than that of living corpse dogs, and a lot can be made in half a day.
Even if the control range is not as large as that of the living corpse dog, and the speed of action is not as fast as the living corpse dog, it will not be able to support the large number, the most important thing is that there is no need to prepare any supplies, and the rats will not starve to death wherever they go.
They are the company and platoon-level commanders in the zombie army, no matter how much ability they have, they can control the zombies within a radius of 100 meters. Always active on the front line, it doesn't matter if you die, the adjacent living corpse rats immediately make up for it, and there is no trace of the connection.
