Chapter Ninety-Eight: Wounded

After listening to Peggy's report, Leon's footsteps paused, he patted the girl's head, and then said as he continued walking:

"Tell Andrea to let her hold them off first, I don't have time to deal with these little things for a while, and in about a week, we'll go see the Trojan Mutual Aid guys again."

Peggy nodded, showed Leon a video from her notebook, and said:

"Boss, that Captain Frank you asked me to keep an eye on, today, it seems like there is another battle inside their outpost."

Leon was a little puzzled, watched the video, he has not relaxed his surveillance of Frank, it stands to reason that on the second day of the iron wolf Frank's return, they should have succeeded in seizing power, how could there be another battle?

"Have you noticed what is going on inside them? Is Iron Wolf Frank dead? ”

Peggy shook her head and said:

"The scouts there are too guarded, and our reconnaissance drones can't get too close, and they don't observe very clearly."

"However, Captain Frank seems to have been wounded only slightly, and his troops did not suffer many casualties."

He breathed a sigh of relief, as long as Frank wasn't dead and could control the situation, there was nothing to worry about.

Leon smiled gently, since there was a reconnaissance aircraft and drone, the Peggy siblings have almost taken on all the reconnaissance and intelligence work, and have an irreplaceable position, he took Peggy's hand and asked:

"It's okay, don't worry about him, is dinner ready? I'm already hungry. ”

Peggy smiled and narrowed her eyes, and said happily:

"Ms. Andrea has sent a few chickens and a sheep, and I'm about to make roast chicken and lamb chops, just waiting for you to come back, boss."

It's been a long time since he has eaten fresh ingredients, Leon admits that he is a little greedy, and leaves the cute little Clermanting and Lao Li for dinner together, and orders the newly found Jasmine and other survivors to arrange for Lily and Kenny to live in the place where they live temporarily, and without treatment, Leon and the others enjoy a rare delicacy again.

That night, the red-haired girl Kevela accompanied Leon and Peggy to play a fun three-player game, and the next day she set off home in a Black Hawk helicopter that Leon had given her.

Before leaving, Leon also asked her if she wanted to go back with Clementine, but the red-haired girl shook her head and said lightly:

"Me and her, in the final analysis, can only be regarded as acquaintances, the middle-aged black man named Li is the relative who really cares about her, let the two of them live together."

Since Kevela said so, Leon was not reluctant, and the next day, he began to officially empty the zombies in the Fort Benning military base.

At present, in addition to commercial and residential areas and the main fortified complex of Fort Benning, there are a number of separate buildings and public buildings such as gardens, exhibition halls and libraries throughout the military base.

However, at the time of the disaster, there were not too many people inside these public buildings, Leon divided two teams, and let the two brothers Daryl and Moore take people to spend half a day to clean up all the zombies in these buildings, and the number was not much, about 2,000 zombies.

Counting the 200,000 zombies that were cleaned up at the beginning, there are about 100,000 zombies left in the entire base, all of which are distributed in the three places of Fort Benning, the residential area and the residential commercial center.

If the residential area and commercial area are left alone for the time being, that is to say, their mission this time is about to deal with thirty or forty thousand zombies.

And according to Iron Wolf Frank's intelligence, the Fort Benning military base is roughly divided into three floors above ground and five floors underground, and a large part of the zombies in it are various staff members in the original base.

At the beginning of the disaster, due to the complexity of the environment inside and the number of zombies inside, the surviving soldiers and officers gave up the idea of cleaning up the zombies in the ground buildings of the fortress, entered the underground base from another hidden survival passage, opened some warehouses, and obtained some weapons and equipment.

However, the officers and soldiers who knew about this secret passage were long dead, and they could not find the location of the secret passage or how to open it, and the only way to enter the underground shelter was to break through from the ground structure, layer by layer, head-on.

Leon thought about Frank's information, the environment in the fortress is too complicated, and there are too many zombies, so in this case, it is still more dangerous to fight hard.

He thought about it, and sure enough, he still had to rely on the method of luring the snake out of the hole, and he had to solve part of it first.

Soon, a thought came to him, in his mind.

He immediately informed the more than 100 logistics personnel in the canning factory, as well as the combat team of the Mordaril brothers, and took the local survivors, Rie and his wife, to the town of Troy to find a large number of steel pipes and plates, and carry them to the entrance of the Benlingbao fortress.

He's going to build a fortification here that can deal with the zombies inside the building without harm.

Time passed quickly, Leon's team was busy at the gate of the fortress in the dark, and the zombies in the fortress heard the sound and kept banging on the strong gate of the fortress, trying to run out and have a full meal.

Two days later, when Iron Wolf Frank and his troops arrived at Fort Benning, they immediately discovered the huge device at the entrance of the fortress.

A strip four or five meters wide and three or four meters high, with steel plates laid at the bottom, on which many steel pipes are welded horizontally and vertically, and a metal passage like an iron cage extends from the gate of the fortress to a place of more than a hundred meters.

He squinted and walked over to Leon's side, and asked in a somewhat hoarse voice:

"Is this the way you came up with it?"

"Lure the zombies inside into this iron cage of more than 100 meters, and then kill them?"

Leon looked at Frank with a smile and explained:

"How? It's both safe and practical. ”

"However, it's not that simple, I set up a gate every 20 meters that can be pulled up and down, and even if a part of it is damaged, we can cut off this part of the passage in time, and then the workers will repair it."

"When we closed the first gate, the zombies in the fortress were blocked by us and couldn't rush out, we could directly drive a pickup truck in and remove all the corpses inside, which would not affect the follow-up work."

"With such a passage, we can easily deal with thousands of zombies every time, whether with guns or bayonets, without directly fighting those monsters."

"It only takes twenty or thirty repetitions to basically empty the zombies inside the fortress."

He patted Frank on the shoulder, and was about to say something, when he suddenly saw some traces of blood oozing out of Frank's abdomen, and he frowned and asked:

"Why are you injured, were you shot in the abdomen?"

Hearing this, Iron Wolf Frank pulled up his military uniform expressionlessly, revealing his abdomen full of muscles, and under his ribs, wrapped in a thick bandage, a ball of bright red blood was slowly oozing out of the bandage through the wound.

Leon frowned, and asked a little speechlessly:

"You haven't even had stitches, don't you have a medic in your team?"

Frank still didn't change his face, and said directly to Leon:

"I tried to burn it with a red-hot dagger, but the wound was a little bigger, and it broke open again, and the military doctor in the team was killed by me, he was actually a die-hard member of the previous leader, and the day before yesterday he colluded with some people to try to assassinate me."

"Is there a doctor in your camp now?"

Leon shrugged his shoulders, took a medical bag from the thoughtful Peggy, pointed to a recliner on the side, and said:

"I'm the doctor, you go and lie there, I'll help you stitch it up, lest you wait, before you see your sister, you've already lost too much blood, go to God."

Iron wolf Frank glanced at Leon with some surprise, he had always thought that this handsome man who looked very powerful was a special forces soldier or an officer, but he didn't expect him to be a well-mannered-sounding doctor.

Frank was cooperative, lying on a recliner, and it took Leon only a few minutes to help Frank stitch up his wound before continuing to tell him the battle plan.

"The task of killing zombies and carrying zombies can be left to my people."

"But this plan also needs some people to carry out a more dangerous mission."

"This was originally your request, so this task needs to be carried out by your people."

Frank glanced at Leon expressionlessly, squinted his eyes slightly and asked:

"What task?"

Leon patted him on the shoulder and said:

"Don't worry, although there is a little danger, there is no need to fight the zombies directly."

"I need you to use the method of flesh and blood camouflage to enter the fortress, and control and guide the number of zombies pouring out each time by controlling the door or passage gate."

"I don't need you to do the bait mission, I will lure out those mobile zombies by arming the mechanical dogs."

Frank thought about the plan for a few minutes, then looked him in the eye and said:

"I will carry out your plan, and I hope you don't let us down."

Leon shook his head and reminded Frank, who wanted to stand up.

"You can't carry out this task in person, the zombies have a very sensitive sense of smell, and the smell of blood on your body is likely to not be able to hide from them."

Iron wolf Frank looked at the wounds on his body, thought about it for dozens of seconds, and finally said to Leon:

"No, you'll have to find a way to hide the smell of me."

"I promised my soldiers that even if they encountered the most dangerous missions, I would take the lead in carrying them out."

"I'm not going to break my promise."

Leon was in a somewhat complicated mood when he heard this, he didn't expect this Iron Wolf Captain to keep his promise and be so brave.

He sighed and said:

"I'll help you figure it out, but you must not do strenuous exercise, if the wound is opened, then the smell of blood will be irrepressible."

"You're sure to be spotted by the zombies."
