Chapter 192 [West Gate] (Part 2)
Yan Tuojiang drove through the city gate. Before he was about to reach the city gate, something suddenly fell from above. He reacted instinctively and stepped on the brakes. The black object hit their hood, and blood splattered everywhere. Ma Yongqing was so scared that he screamed loudly. A corpse fell down, which was thrown from the city tower nearly ten feet high, smashed onto the hood of the car, and then fell to the ground. He was probably unable to survive.
Yan Tuojiang was also shocked by the sudden appearance. He first fell a little distance back and saw clearly the person lying in a pool of blood. Judging from his clothes, he should be a soldier under his command. But he didn't understand why the soldier jumped off the city tower? Before Yan Tuojiang could come back to his senses, three more corpses fell from the city tower one after another.
The corpse that landed first began to react. First, his hands and feet twitched for a while, then he slowly climbed up from the ground, raised his twisted arms and straightened his head that was tilted to the side. Ma Yongqing thought he was dreaming, so she blinked her eyes hard. When she saw clearly that everything that was happening in front of her was reality, she screamed: "Zombies...they are zombies..."
Zombies one after another climbed up from the ground. The soldiers who were originally responsible for the guards on both sides of the city gate hurriedly raised their guns. The pedestrians who found that the situation was not right were frightened and fled everywhere. Gunshots continued to sound. The guards aimed at the bodies of several zombies. The zombies were hit by bullets and staggered constantly, but they did not stop moving forward. In the huge shadow of the city tower, a zombie rushed towards a guard who was changing magazines, opened his bloody mouth and bit his neck.
The guard struggled to fall to the ground, and his companions hurriedly came to respond. They shot at the zombie's head, smashing the zombie's head, and working together to rescue the injured companion from under the zombie. Unexpectedly, this was the beginning of another nightmare. The injured soldier hugged his comrades frantically, biting their flesh and blood like crazy.
Seeing such a scene, Yan Tuojiang was shocked. In just a moment, the road ahead had been blocked by several zombies. What was even more troublesome was that the city gate was closed at this time. Yan Tuojiang almost immediately determined that this matter had nothing to do with Ma Yongping, and the Xinman Camp was experiencing an unprecedented terrifying crisis.
Yan Tuojiang decided to change the route. He cut the gear into reverse gear, stepped on the accelerator and slowly retreated backwards, hoping not to attract the attention of the zombies. The bloody scene made Ma Yongqing vomit. She turned her face and never thought that a person with blood on his face rushed towards the car from the side, and his ugly and terrifying face was heavily pressed against the glass window.
Ma Yongqing was so scared that he screamed at the top of his lungs. Yan Tuojiang turned suddenly and used the body of the car to hit the zombie who was trying to attack the car heavily. Then he skillfully turned the front of the car, stepped on the accelerator and drove backwards.
Luo Lie walked up the fish scale slope, and Yan Tianxin, who had already arrived here, handed him the telescope in his hand. Luo Lie used the telescope to look at the direction of Xinman Camp. Although it was far apart, he could still see the sky in Xinman Camp vaguely flashing red light.
Luo Liedao: "There is a fire exchange?"
Yan Tianxin nodded.
Tan Tiande walked up from the campground below with a cane and whispered: "Maybe someone is setting off fireworks."
Luo Liedao: "Didn't it mean that there are fifteen infected people locked in the dungeons in the city?"
Tan Tiande said: "Ma Yongping is not a fool. He must know the seriousness of the situation and will not take it lightly." After saying that, he paused and said: "But if it were me, kill those disgusting guys first to avoid long nights of dreams."
There were laughter and sounds of boxing sounds coming from below. Tan Tiande's subordinates did not know what kind of mission they would perform tomorrow. In addition, they were all bandits, so their discipline was naturally not as strict as the army. After camping, they started drinking and playing with boxing. Some even started gambling temporarily.
Luo Lie was attracted by the movement below and looked at it for a while and said, "Didn't Mr. Tan tell them about our mission?"
Tan Tiande shook his head and said, "I originally wanted to say it, but after thinking about it, it's better not to say it. If they know the truth, they may run away before dawn tomorrow, and then I will become the commander of the bare feet."
Luo Lie couldn't help laughing. Although Tan Tiande had a bad reputation, this person was able to stay and deal with the mutated zombies, which proved that he still had a big view.
Yan Tianxin said: "You can leave here, why should you stay?" In fact, this is what Luo Lie wanted to ask.
Tan Tiande said: "It's hard to leave your hometown!" After saying that, he felt that such a statement could not deceive people at all. He sighed and said: "I changed my mind after seeing those strange birds from Hei Shui Temple. If I don't kill these monsters, I'm afraid that we will all face a catastrophe in the near future. If we don't have long-term plans, we will have immediate worries."
Luo Lie nodded and said, "I admire the old man's pattern."
Tan Tiande chuckled and said, "Don't talk about any pattern, wait until the matter is solved before considering other things."
Yan Tianxin heard what he meant. Other things Tan Tiande said also included his own grudges. Letting go now does not mean letting go forever.
Luo Lie walked towards the fish scale slope at this time. He widened his eyes and looked into the distance at the place where the western world intersected. Although nightfall was falling, the night was still not strong enough, and his eyes could still see that it was far away. Luo Lie saw something squirming in the distance. He raised his telescope and saw more clearly. There was indeed movement at the horizon. It should be that a large team was approaching their position quickly.
Luo Lie suddenly became nervous, and he immediately told Tan Tiande and Yan Tianxin about this situation.
Tan Tiande and Yan Tianxin were not as good as Luo Lie. They took the telescope and looked for a while before they saw the changes that Luo Lie said. Tan Tiande said: "It may not be the zombie you mentioned."
Yan Tianxin said: "Whether it is those zombies or not, we must be prepared."
Luo Lie nodded and said, "The terrain here is empty and it is not suitable to defend. We should transfer as soon as possible to avoid head-on conflicts with them."
Yan Tianxin said: "Not bad!"
Tan Tiande quickly called his son over and asked him to send orders. All his subordinates immediately sorted out and must get in the bus within five minutes.
The bandits were exposed to the sun for a day and finally got a rest. They were all in the mood. They heard that they were about to set off, and they were full of complaints, but due to Tan Tiande's majesty, no one dared to disobey. They began to pack up and prepare to leave Yulin Slope.
But after all, the discipline of these bandits was scattered. Tan Tiande gave five minutes to them and they could not do it at all. The delay has not been completely sorted out.
Luo Lie stood on the fish scale slope and monitored the movement of the team in the distance. The speed of the team was extremely amazing. Luo Lie began to deny the possibility of being a zombie. After all, he once witnessed the zombie's movement speed with his own eyes. As the opponent continued to get closer, Luo Lie gradually saw clearly that it was a team of horses that were approaching their camp.
Within five minutes, the horse team shortened the distance between them to half. The knights had a deep metal reflection. Luo Lie inferred that their bodies should be wearing armor, which made him even more puzzled. Nowadays, few soldiers are wearing armor to fight. Where does this cavalry team come from?
Yan Tianxin's voice sounded in his ears: "Luo Lie, it's time to leave!"
Luo Lie nodded and quickly came to their camp. Their camp was above the Yulin Slope Slope, away from the bandits, in order to avoid the group of bandits being unfavorable to them. Yan Tianxin had packed her bags, and Luo Lie turned over to the motorcycle. Yan Tianxin sat down behind him, hugged his waist and abdomen with his left hand, and held a powerful shotgun in his right hand.
Tan Zicong stood on the convertible off-road vehicle and shouted to them: "Let's drive south, and there is a stone city about ten miles south. I hope to get rid of them in advance." Tan Zicong was very familiar with the surrounding terrain. After discussing with his father, he decided to give up and continue to go deep into the Gobi. As for whether to attack Laoyingpan or not, he would just get rid of the mysterious cavalry team first, and then consider other things.
After everyone got on the car, the convoy drove south. Tan Zicong had enough confidence in getting rid of the cavalry team behind him. After all, this is the Gobi Desert, and the ground is hard enough for vehicles to walk. Under such terrain conditions, horses cannot catch up with cars, not to mention that with fish scale slopes, the team may not be able to find them. Even if they see them, the other party may not be coming for them.
Tan Tiande was not as optimistic as his son. His body kept bumping while the vehicle was driving, and he smiled bitterly: "My old bones are almost dispersed."
Tan Zicong said to his father: "Don't worry, they can't catch up."
Tan Tiande sighed and said, "I have turned around and ran away before I can see what the enemy is like. I have never been so cowardly in my life." But I thought to myself, if that team is really a zombie cavalry team, it would be better if this battle is not fought, after all, it is in the dark. According to Luo Lie, the attack power of those zombies at night is several times stronger than that during the day.
Luo Lie drove forward, and the speed did not increase to the maximum, and he kept moving side by side with the bandits' convoy. Yan Tianxin looked back from time to time to watch the movement of the cavalry team in the rear, and felt that Luo Lie's speed suddenly slowed down. She wanted to remind Luo Lie to speed up because the cavalry team in the rear had discovered them and was chasing them desperately in the rear.
Luo Lie felt an ominous premonition in his heart, which was why he slowed down his vehicle.
