Section 166 Small Town
The reason why I agreed to Wang Jundi's bloody revenge was entirely out of shock.
There are still many people living in this city.
Among them, there are many people like Chen Dongbo.
Su Hao had no time and no interest in finding them out one by one from their hiding corners.
The fat man's moves very much, and Cao Rui sent a lot of people to help him.
This is actually a disguised publicity.
Su Hao wants to let more people know that he has the ability to help them. Whether it is vendetta or various disputes, he can be responsible for resolving them. At the same time, he also warns those guys with ulterior motives to be content with their own will. If he is unwilling to stand on his side, the ending and outcome will undoubtedly be clear.
Su Hao is about to leave the city, but it does not mean that he will give up everything———————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————
There is a large amount of rotten hormones stored in the basement of the "Castle". This is Su Hao's biggest trump card.
He needs a stable rear, providing continuous resources and various help.
Su Hao took only four people away—Xinyan, Tang Zi and Wang Jundi. Of course, Yang Lulu.
If there are many people, the goal will be greater.
According to the initial plan, only Xinyan and Yang Lulu followed Su Hao to Chengdu.
Although the "castle" has strong protection capabilities, its safety is not as good as the large bases guarded by heavy troops. Moreover, Yang Lulu has long reached the age of going to school. If the school in the Chengdu base can accept her, it means that Su Hao can send more children to them and receive education in a safe environment.
Tang Zi always called Xinyan "sister". No matter how she persuaded her, she made up her mind to leave with Xinyan.
As for Wang Jundi... the situation was a bit special. The two encounters before and after made the fat man feel extremely strongly admired Su Hao. He bluntly said that he was willing to do anything for Su Hao. That kind of fanatic spirit was no different from those of the believers. The crazy sense of faith caused the black particles injected into his body to increase sharply. Twenty-four hours later, Zhou Chen conducted the first blood sample test on the fat man and found that the number of black particles in his body had reached the "7th" standard.
As long as you meet the "5th" standard, you are already a "worker bee".
He smashed the last steel drill into the ground and looked coldly at the bloodless and wailing object of revenge under his feet. Wang Jundi breathed a sigh of relief, wiped his sweat, turned around, and strode towards the convoy waiting for him.
The rain followed the convoys that drove out of the city until the evening when the weather gradually turned clear.
Su Hao refused the farewell ceremony of Lao Song, Du Tianhao and others - this is just going to another city and will come back eventually. Moreover, the connection between the two places will not be interrupted. There is no need to make a separation from life and death.
If the snoop discovered the relationship between the "castle" and several other teams due to a meaningless ritual, it would be really not worth the effort.
The road from the city to the toll station outside the country has long been cleared, and there is a spacious enough direction to be used for passage. As many as a thousand abandoned vehicles were pushed to the side of the road and arranged in a single column. They have been specially selected, and the vehicles are in good condition and are ready for use by team members. As for those dilapidated cars, they are all pushed under the roadbed, allowing them to be rusted silently and moldy.
After getting on the highway, the originally dense vehicle obstacles gradually became sparse. They still remained in the early stage of the virus outbreak and were forced to be abandoned for various reasons. Many cars collided with each other. The rubber friction marks on the ground showed that many out-of-control vehicles were thrown out of the lane by inertia due to their speed too fast, crashed into the guardrail and fell off the roadbed... Judging from the direction of the vehicles, they all wanted to escape from the city, but were abandoned by their respective owners due to lack of oil, mechanical failure, panic, and chaos.
Corpse can be seen in many carriages. Human limbs are scattered in many places on the road. Most of them are left with bones, and a small part of them are windy, making them blackened on the surface.
When the convoy passed a "Magotan", Su Hao saw a zombie sitting in the car opposite through the window.
It was a man with a seat belt tied on his body.
He may have been bitten by zombies before getting on the car, and then drove out of the chaotic city in a panic. The window of the Magotan was closed and the door bolts were pressed to the bottom. The beautiful streamlined body was squeezed in the middle by two crashed trucks and could not move. The entire body had been obviously deformed.
If it is a human, he will definitely release his seat belt and escape from the cab.
However, the zombie has no wisdom and relies entirely on biological instincts. It has been tied there. It saw the Su Hao convoy passing by. The hungry zombies' eyes were red and they opened their mouths and howled in the sealed carriage. The gray and membrane-covered eyes had several fat white maggots crawling around on it, and the pair of hands that kept waving and wanted to smash the glass, but could only hit the empty sound of "bang bang" back and forth... It reminded people of the angry monkey.
The speed limit sign on the roadside shows that the maximum speed does not exceed 120 kilometers per hour.
The actual speed of the convoy can only be maintained at about 60 to 80 kilometers. There are too many abandoned vehicles blocking the middle of the road, or several consecutive vehicles colliding, completely blocking the road. In this case, Su Hao and his teammates can only stop the car and clear obstacles one by one.
They are reinforcers.
It is not difficult to unplug the brakes and drag a vehicle weighing several tons, but it will take a lot of time.
At six o'clock in the afternoon, the convoy drove off the highway and slowly stopped in a small town not far from Yuanmou.
This is a brand new town and its name cannot be found on the map.
Like the "castle", there are rivers and large areas of cultivated land next to the town, and several newly built buildings are also solid triangular structures. The area here covers about one-twentieth the "castle", and the outer wall is in a tense construction stage.
Here is "Xinyuanmou". There are only forty-six garrisons. They all received Su Hao's blood injection and the black particle concentration reached the "5th" standard. These people have a considerable number of weapons and equipment, sufficient ammunition, and strengthen their physique, so they can protect themselves.
Zhou Chen has a very profound research on black particles. He found that even if someone has met Su Hao, as long as he has a sense of identity with him, the dominant consciousness can still play a role. Just like those new outsiders in the "castle" led by Lao Song, you only need to constantly instill Su Hao's image as a leader in the other party's mind, even if you have never met Su Hao himself, you can still become a real "working bee".
The "castle" and the bank building are stocked with the blood drawn by Su Hao in advance. As early as half a year ago, he selected more than ten team members with a black particle concentration of more than the "U" standard, and each led 20 to 50 "working bees" to Dali, Zhaotong, Yuanmou, Panzhihua and other places.
The wealthy consortiums are gathering refugees. Su Hao does not intend to let them grow their power in vain. Since he has obtained the prototype potion, possesses the ontological consciousness and black particles, he has become the "Queen Bee". Su Hao naturally wants to get more.
Small teams assigned to various places will establish new bases as soon as possible to attract local refugees.
This way of gathering population is completely different from the forced searches by the wealthy consortium. They will be more friendly to outsiders and have clearer boundaries between enemies and us. Without slaves, there can be some collaborators, or they can coexist with other survivor teams through material exchange. However, the cohesion within the entire team is extremely strong.
They are reinforcement people and "worker bees".
The next morning, the convoy continued to move towards Chengdu.
Panzhihua, Xichang, Ya'an... The journey of hundreds of kilometers was not reached until the afternoon of the third day. There were a total of four team strongholds along the way, all of which were set up in the suburbs not far from the city. Among them, the "Xinya'an" stronghold "worker bees" had the largest number, reaching 116.
All strongholds are marked by black flags. Of course, it is not a substantial flag. It is a rectangle painted black and horizontally arranged. They either appear outside the small building of the stronghold or directly above the outer wall. The area is very small and the location is difficult to attract attention. Only the "worker bees" recognized by the team understand the true meaning of this kind of pattern similar to children drawing casually.
From Kunming to Ya'an, Su Hao has established a coherent transportation line.
The meaning of the existence of these strongholds will gradually be revealed over time.
People have obtained a large number of communication equipment from the city and set up a smooth radio network between the strongholds. Although the daily communication content is just a few fixed greetings, it is enough for people to feel the warmth.
We are not alone.
We have many people, a united group.
Relying on this line, although Su Hao left Kunming, he still maintained control over the entire team. The materials, information and personnel needed can be replenished to the designated area in a short period of time.
Now, Su Hao is heading to Chengdu to make up a crucial link for this invisible line.
When Li Daoyuan entrusted Wu Guoguang to transfer the order, he once stated that he could use the KD03 helicopter to send Su Hao and others directly to Chengdu.
Su Hao refused Li Daoyuan's kindness.
He wants to take the route he set himself and see the development status of each stronghold with his own eyes.
At first, when various construction teams were sent, Xinyan once joked: "This is like a dandelion. When the wind blows, the seeds fall in all directions and take roots and sprout."
Su Hao felt that this was right.
The seeds scattered at that time are now deeply rooted. They will continue to grow, bloom, and produce beautiful plants like white pompoons. The wind blows again, and there will be more and more small parachutes flying and scattering, densely packed.
As for their names, Su Hao is a little lazy—no matter what new strongholds are built in any area, they will be added with the word "new" in front of the old local name.
The convoy parked on the side of the road.
Su Hao stood on the roof of the truck, holding the telescope in both hands, and looking at the dark giant city on the horizon in the distance.
There are many tall buildings there, with lights on the windows. On the road connecting to the surrounding areas, vehicles can be seen flowing through the flow. A large number of fortifications and obstacles are set up around the city, and the shadow of large-diameter direct-sighted artillery can be seen at the top of the city wall. Helicopters and jets often appear in the sky. They take off and land frequently in the city. This means that air routes do have advantages that cannot be matched by ground transportation—at least, mutated creatures have failed to evolve their wings.
"Are you sure we're going in?"
Without looking back, Su Hao knew that Xinyan was talking. He put down the telescope and responded lightly: "Since you have made a choice, there is no reason to avoid it anymore.
He could have not used it to ignore the order issued by the Army Command.
Su Hao has the status of a researcher. He can use this to make excuses and continue to stay in Kunming under the excuses of "scientific research".
If it were the early stage of escape that had just completed the time and space landing, Su Hao would have done so without hesitation.
However, he obtained the prototype potion and knew the future direction of the world. When he found that to some extent, he could manipulate the direction and development of events, Su Hao's ambition naturally expanded without restraint.
This is not his fault.
People have desires.
The convoy slowly drove towards the huge base city.
A cordon guarded by armed soldiers was set up about five hundred meters away from the city wall.
As many as thousands of refugees are crowded at the intersection.
Under the command of the soldiers, they lined up in a long line.
Many of the refugees are walking, carrying bags, kettles, and various indispensable daily necessities and equipment. Almost all of them have sticks and steel bars in their hands, and weapons such as axes or long knives are inserted diagonally inside and outside the backpack. The refugees are unkempt and dirty, and their clothes are worn and dirty. You can smell an indescribable odor when you walk three to five meters away.
There is a large open space outside the city to the middle of the cordon. There is a barbed wire fence on the edge, and there is also a power grid more than three meters high near the city wall. The outermost cordon is sprinkled with lime, most of which is already dim. There are a large number of triangular warning signs inserted outside the line. Most of the contents are skeletons with the meaning of death, and the striking words "Beware of mines".
Walking refugees were arranged to be inspected in sequence from the left side of the highway. On the right is a vehicle passage, which also blocked hundreds of vehicles driven by refugees. In addition to the soldiers responsible for the inspection, six fortresses facing outwards were built on the inside of the checkpoint. There were machine guns and dozens of fully armed soldiers.
Su Hao's identity as a lieutenant performed the effect he deserved———He did not queue up and drove the car closer to the checkpoint. The soldiers only conducted rough inspections on the two cars without making any trouble.
After careful observation of Xinyan, Tang Zi, Wang Jundi and Yang Lulu, there was no sign of mutation, a young corporal smiled and handed him back the army order and officer certificate presented by Su Hao.
"It's really far from Kunming."
The corporal who has checked all kinds of documents is kind. He took the cigarette handed over by Su Hao and said seriously: "According to the order, soldiers can enter and exit the base city freely. However, your companions have to trouble - they must re-enter the information and apply for a new ID card and residence permit."
Su Hao smiled: "What procedures are needed?"
The corporal turned his body and pointed to the huge sign on the checkpoint platform, explaining patiently: "All civilians entering the base city must pay a crystal stone, or ten milligrams of silver bones. With these things, you can get a half-year residence right. The newly processed ID card will automatically enter the cumulative amount of materials paid. This is equivalent to personal credit. If you reach a certain amount, you can get a discount for things like weapons and food. Of course, if you have world yuan, it can also be used as equal payment."
Su Hao nodded, took out a stack of banknotes from his top pocket, and asked: "What is the exchange rate?"
"The above requires that silver bones and crystals be pegged to currency. One milligram of silver bones is equivalent to ten yuan, and one crystal is exchanged for one hundred yuan."
The corporal counted Xinyan and others who were standing behind Su Hao: "Three adults and one child, a total of four hundred yuan."
Su Hao handed it to the corporal before counting enough, and laughed and joked: "Why, can't children buy half-price tickets?"
The corporal shook his head, shrugged his shoulders, and lowered his voice, "Sorry, even babies, they also need to pay. This is the order of the Army Headquarters. I have always suspected that the senior officers who made the rules may suffer from sexual dysfunction. They may have insufficient sperm vitality and are incapable of getting pregnant with their wives. If they cannot get rid of offspring, they will be jealous of other people's babies. Therefore, they will create these unkind and perverted rules. Please forgive me for their responsibilities."
As he said that, the corporal turned around and looked at the refugees waiting for inspection on the roadside, sighed heavily: "It is really difficult to do this kind of inspection work. Many people ignored these regulations and just kept asking to enter the city. No matter how we dissuaded them, they did not listen. The collective card-breaking incident happened almost every day. I don't want to use violence, but I have to maintain order. Some people who fled only handed over a very small amount of silver bones, but asked the whole family to go in. The superiors allowed us to shoot and kill those who did not obey orders... Last week, more than 200 refugees drove the card and killed more than a dozen people on the spot. Most of the remaining refugees fled. Some people wanted to pass through the minefields at night and directly enter the base. As a result, all of them were bombed to death..."
Su Hao was silent for a moment, reached out and took out two packs of "Hongtashan" from the back seat of the off-road vehicle and stuffed them to the corporal. Then he patted the other party's shoulder and comforted him: "We are all working hard. Things will always get better."
The corporal smiled bitterly and nodded: "I hope so."
The convoy passed the checkpoint and approached the base city gate.
The height of the city wall is more than 100 meters, and its thickness is almost twice the height. This steel-concrete structure is actually an unforesaid fortification. It carries a large number of automatic weapons, and its density and firepower are astonishingly high.
This is a major feature of the base city and the greatest safety guarantee for all residents.
At the entrance of the city, the convoy was stopped again.
Chapter completed!
