Doomsday rat

His feelings at this time were similar to those of Commander Yang. He never expected that the alliance would use domesticated living corpses to participate in rescue operations, and he never expected that tactics that had basically disappeared would be re-used.

At a distance of about one kilometer to the north, as the smoke and dust raised by the shells gradually drifted away, apart from the large kangs and ruined walls, a strange scene was revealed.

At least tens of thousands of zombies are striding forward to the south, with a width of nearly half a kilometer from east to west, and the darkness behind them must be hundreds of meters deep.Compared with them, the group of zombies that had just been baptized by large-caliber shells looked much thinner, and basically they would be crushed without a trace as long as they got close.

The momentum is overwhelming!The army of zombies marching south is like falling from the sky. The group of zombies that were besieged here were scattered, crushed, and engulfed in a rotten way.

If you want to ask where this army of zombies came from and who is controlling it, it is obvious that the infantry chariot that follows is the answer.Although it is impossible to see the faces of the people on the top of the car from this distance, Hong Tao can be 100% sure that there is at least one of them that is similar to Jiao Si.

In the beginning, apart from being a little startled, Hong Tao felt a lot more relaxed.With the help of Jiao Jiao Si's living corpses, coupled with the military's heavy artillery and assault troops, opening a gap in a short period of time, and breaking out with a team of less than a hundred people is obviously not too difficult an operation.

But after watching it for less than 5 minutes, the heart that had just let go was raised again, and it was even higher than before going down.I don't dare to say that I understand better than anyone else how powerful the Jiaojiao four living zombies are, what characteristics they have, and how to control zombies on the battlefield, and I should be considered to have a deep understanding.

The army of zombies heading south now seems to be the same as Jiao Si's control method back then. They are all area-covering, and any zombies that enter its brainwave or sensing radius will be controlled.It's just that the range of Jiaosi-like living corpses this time is much larger than that of Jiaosi back then, and the number of them is also more.

This is not surprising. If Jiao Si belonged to the first batch of living corpses, then the current Jiao Si-like living corpses should be in the nth batch.According to the evolution law of species, the more descendants should be stronger than the ancestors, otherwise the population will soon perish due to degeneration.

However, compared with the army of zombies controlled by the four living zombies like Jiaojiao, the group of zombies that were originally besieged here was a bit too weak.They didn't rush forward to fight against the traitors without hesitation at all, nor did they gather in a planned way. Instead, they were more like a bunch of zombies that were not controlled at all, and they didn't resist the impact of the same kind at all.

Could it be that the living corpses saw the failure of the siege and gave up the zombie group under them and fled first?Faced with this situation, Hong Tao naturally thought of another possibility.But when he turned his head to look south, west, and east, he immediately denied his previous judgment.

Except for the zombie swarm in the north, the zombie swarms in the west, south, and east are not only not out of control, but are still moving very regularly!They were traveling from south to east, and the dark stream of zombies walked quietly in the streets, ruins, and wilderness without any hesitation.

Going east... Hong Tao didn't need to look at the map to know what the consequences would be if the zombie swarms moved eastward on a large scale.This is another roundabout outflanking, which is how the coachman and the soldiers of the 8th regiment were made dumplings a few days ago.It's good now, the living corpses are going to repeat their old tricks!

"It's so fucking evil, how did these guys manage to communicate and coordinate quickly while hiding in the building!" If this inference is true, Hong Tao probably understands the reason why the rescue operation went so smoothly after it started.

It wasn't the coalition air force and the heavy artillery group's effective firepower coverage, nor the coalition army's sharp new tactics, nor was it the appearance of the coke-like four zombies that caught the enemy by surprise.

All the previous performances were illusions, smoke bombs used by the living corpses to confuse human beings.They may have known from the very beginning that more humans would cross the river to rescue trapped humans, and then used the 8th Regiment and themselves as bait to gradually lead the human reinforcements deeper.

When the time is right, the living corpses will suddenly encircle from the northwest and southeast to the northeast to form a siege, encircling all the human survivors who have crossed the Huai River on the south bank.

When is the time considered ripe?Hong Tao looked up at the sky, his face was ashen!At this time, the sky is even more cloudy. Even if you don't touch your back, as long as your eyes are not blind, you should be able to tell that there is not much time until dark, and there is a possibility of heavy rain.

The night is the time of day for zombies. Although they don't like cloudy days and rain, they just don't like it, far from being afraid.On the other hand, the human survivors, who evacuated for a long distance in the heavy rain, were obviously more affected than the zombies.Comparing the hatchback, yes, the zombies still have a big advantage!

"Zhang Ke, I suggest ordering a breakout immediately, or asking the rescue force to retreat immediately. The behavior of the zombies is very abnormal. If I guess correctly, they are making a large-scale detour, encircling from the east and northwest directions."

Thinking of this, Hong Tao didn't have time to carefully figure out the strategic intentions of the living corpses, so he immediately picked up his mobile phone and called Zhang Ke, telling him the anomalies and inferences he found concisely, plus his own suggestions.

"...Wait a minute, I'll check with the headquarters right away!" Zhang Ke understood it, and immediately reacted, without daring to be careless at all.

"Grandpa Hong, the headquarters has grasped the general movement of the zombie group, but they don't think they are encircling. Even if there is such a possibility, don't worry, team X...

Oh, that is the blue and white infantry chariot. They have the ability to control zombies. After breaking through the siege, they can protect us and break through to the south bank of the Huaihe River, where there are naval gunboats to respond.

By the way, I have good news for you. The main force of the 8th Regiment and the coachman led by Wang Gang have successfully escaped the encirclement. They are currently marching along the expressway to the north. It is basically safe! "

A few minutes later, Zhang Ke's voice sounded much more relaxed than before.Obviously, most of him agreed with the judgment of the headquarters, that is, most of them denied his own speculation.

"What is Team X?" Hearing that Wang Gang and the others escaped from danger, Hong Tao was also happy.But it didn't make him optimistic, and he was still struggling with the situation on the battlefield.

"...Uh...it seems to be a medical institution that has been engaged in the research of secret projects. Its level of secrecy is very high, and I don't know the specifics. I only heard from Uncle Jiao that their commander is He Wanjun, no It is under the control of the military, it seems that it should be directly led by Auntie Chu!"

This question caught Zhang Ke. It is said that the little fat man was originally engaged in military intelligence work, and he was a veteran of the alliance.But he really knew very little about Group X, if Jiao Qiao hadn't revealed a few words, it would have been almost zero.

"...Is Chu Xia still alive?" After a few seconds of silence, Hong Tao suddenly asked a very withdrawn and unpopular question.

"Auntie Chu, Chuqiu's younger sister?" Zhang Ke didn't have these materials in his mind for a while, and was very unsure if it was that person.

"Yes, it used to be locked in the west room in my yard, but later moved to the fasting palace in Ditan Park."

"It should be... It seems that it was handed over to Alexei. I really don't know the specific situation!"

"Let's make a bet, the chief researcher and specific leader of this X team is probably Alexei. Chuqiu, Chuqiu, you are such a good sister, I will never forget it!"

As soon as Alexey was mentioned, Hong Tao felt that he might have guessed right again.As the saying goes, a husband and wife can be kind for a hundred days, and I and Chu Qiu must be more than one day. Apart from the kindness, I must know a lot about the character, especially my understanding of her.

The character of this woman can be divided into two stages.The first stage was before the injury. Although I was a little narrow-minded, there was no major problem with my overall personality.But since her arm was amputated, the joy of marriage did not dilute her withdrawn personality, and she often likes to go to extremes when thinking about problems.

After she took over her position and gained power, it's not too strange to set up a research team for public benefit and try to revive Chu Xia.When she didn't leave the alliance, she made this suggestion privately in the name of the medical team.

Chapter 877 Was tricked by the living corpse!

Alexey is also a very extreme guy, and he even loves zombies and living corpses more than himself.If no one stopped him, as long as there was a [-]% possibility, he would very likely try the feeling of becoming a living corpse.

If these two pieces of material are put together, the burst of research power is simply at the level of nuclear fission, and there are almost no dares to do it in order to achieve the goal.History has also proved that it is often this kind of people who are more likely to succeed, because they are really devoted and do not consider any consequences.

"Hey hey..." Hearing Hong Tao's comment on Chu Qiu, Zhang Ke didn't dare to talk nonsense anymore, and could only use a dry laugh to prove that he heard it.

"Smile, little fat man, I suggest that you be mentally prepared to continue to hold on until the position is lost. Whether it will be effective or not, we will see the result in half an hour at most!"

Since the chairman of the alliance also participated in this rescue operation and revealed her hidden secret, Hong Tao didn't expect to be able to persuade Jiao Qiao to change his plan.Don't say that it was just Zhang Ke who conveyed it on his behalf, even if I talked with him personally, it shouldn't change much.

Now is not the era of the rescue team, a few leaders can overturn all previous decisions by making a general statement.Once the rules have formed a scale, they will restrict everyone, including the makers. Without this effect, it is not a rule.

It's useless to say any more after the matter has come to this point, Hong Tao threw down a scene sentence viciously, put down the walkie-talkie and took out the thermal imaging scope from his pocket, looked at the compass on the watch, starting from 270 degrees due west, moving counterclockwise Carefully search for all heat sources that can be captured.

"Boom boom boom... buzz..." Following a shocking explosion, three big-bellied transport planes slowly pulled up, turned around under the clouds in the south, and slowly flew towards the north.

This was the last batch of bombers of the Alliance Air Force to cooperate with the attack. Due to the weather, they had to return early. The crude equipment was not enough for all-weather combat, and the remaining work could only be handed over to the army and the heavy artillery group.

At this time, the army of zombies commanded by Lei Jiao Si Zombie was less than 300 meters away from the community, and the four people on the roof of the infantry vehicle could be seen without binoculars, especially the two child-like zombies.

One of them was pressing his temples with both hands, staring at his big white eyes, using a very special way to control all the nearby zombies to move southward like a snowball.The other seemed to be resting. It seemed that one was enough to control a zombie army of this size.Very relaxed look.

Zhang Ke had already received the notification from Niu Dafu, and he just waited for the army of zombies to sweep through the community, and immediately came down from the top of the building to break through to the northeast.The headquarters has found signs of abnormal movement of the zombie swarms, and temporarily changed the direction of the breakout, so that even if they are being chased, they can use their speed to get rid of most of them.

"Here we come! Look at 165 degrees, that's the zombie dog I said. This time it should be a general attack, at least 10, and there are many blue devils! Hurry up and tell Brigadier Niu to let him strengthen the defense in the southeast. Don't let the Blue Devil get close to Team X's infantry vehicles!"

Almost at the moment when the transport fleet flew into the clouds, Hong Tao also found something in the thermal imaging sight.A group of heat sources in the shape of animals are running at high speed. From the direction of view, they are not coming towards me, it should be the infantry chariot!

"I see... Brigadier Niu is being notified. As long as the zombie group can slightly block the speed of the blue devil, they should not cause harm to Team X!"

Zhang Ke also held up the thermal imaging scope and looked around. Although he mostly agreed with the judgment of the headquarters, he was not sure that Grandpa Hong's worries were unfounded.It's a pity that he doesn't have command authority. The only thing he can do is to also take out the thermal imaging sight and scan in a clockwise direction.

"Look southwest again, about 190 degrees... Silly boy, I have to say, the zombies I encountered this time may be smarter than you, at least they know how to endure and give up. Seeing that a large number of subordinates were killed, they kept silent and showed weakness until You have used all means to find the right opportunity to launch a counterattack."

Hong Tao didn't think this was the killer's weapon of the living corpse. He still held the thermal imaging scope and slowly turned his body, and soon made a new discovery.The other wave of corpse dogs had more, presumably leading more blue devils.

They were passing through the west side of the zombie army controlled by the four living zombies at a high speed. Obviously, this was to cut off the retreat route of the special operations group to the north.And the batch of zombie dogs attacking in the southeast is attracting the attention of human beings, and they are slamming east and west in a standard manner.

Now the special operations regiment is faced with a choice, whether to continue to advance south or defend in situ, or to retreat quickly before the back road is cut off.It is difficult to stop this special force trained to hunt zombies only by living corpse dogs and blue devils.

But no matter how you choose, it seems that it is too late. Just as Zhang Ke, Niu Dafu, and the headquarters were conducting emergency consultations, the zombie army controlled by the four living zombies like Jiaojiao suddenly appeared in chaos.

The front line that was originally pressing southward was stagnant. The zombies behind were still rushing forward under control, but the zombies in front stopped in place and did not move.It was very similar to the scene when Team X had just entered the arena. Some of the zombies were disturbed again and lost control!

What made people even more dumbfounded and accompanied by despair was not the loss of control of the zombie group, but the madness of the two little living corpses on the infantry chariot.That's right, it was madness. The two of them suddenly let out an extremely shrill scream, covered their heads with their hands and kept twisting their bodies, even the two adults behind couldn't fully control them.

"Damn it!" Hong Tao naturally also saw this scene, and lightly uttered three words, and he lost even the interest in calling Zhang Ke on the walkie-talkie.It's useless to call out. In this battle of wits and courage, human beings were completely defeated by the living corpses. Even I couldn't think of how to turn the tide.

From the beginning to the end, maybe half a year ago, the living corpses here realized that humans were about to appear on a large scale through the reconnaissance planes that kept appearing in the sky, and then they chose a strategic retreat, taking a large number of zombies to the south, leaving an empty city.

But they didn't intend to surrender completely, but they used some method to keep observing the trajectory of the human survivors' activities, and set a huge trap when the 8th regiment crossed the Huaihe River.

They made full use of the arrogance and habitual cognition of human survivors, first showed weakness to lure the enemy to go deep, and then carried out surprise attacks in suitable areas, encircling the main force of the 8 regiments in one fell swoop.

However, the living corpses did not choose to attack in a hurry, but used this trick again, luring more humans into the ambush circle again, and then launched a big counterattack while it was dark, preparing for a thorough annihilation battle !

In fact, it is not without some flaws. Since the siege, the zombies have not attacked for a day to reach the intensity of the capital defense battle. The scene of falling down layer by layer and immediately coming up layer by layer, regardless of day or night. , almost never appeared.

But including Hong Tao himself, everyone didn't realize that the living corpses were playing tricks. They just habitually thought that they were not so smart, and that they didn't attack by force because of the unfavorable terrain, or simply because there were not enough of them.

In history, there are countless human generals who have been defeated because they underestimated the enemy, but it is probably the first time that human beings have been defeated by living corpses, and it probably won't be the last time.

Of course, everything must be viewed dialectically.The failure of humans this time is not meaningless, at least it proves one thing, the IQ of living corpses is rapidly improving, and animals infected with zombie viruses are no longer a special case, so we must be highly vigilant!

"Zhongnanle... yes, I'm calling you!"

But shouldn't it just sit and wait?Of course not, Hong Tao has never been a person who can quietly wait for his fate to come, even if it seems hopeless, he still has to struggle.

He believes in the concept of doing one's best and obeying the destiny. No matter what can or cannot be done, as long as there is no way out in the face of desperation, what should be done is still to be done. Whether it can be successful is another question.

"Brother Mouse...the form doesn't seem very good!"

Bungy seldom hears heroes call his name, so he was a little surprised for a while, and at the same time, he also noticed the changes on the battlefield and was anxious in his heart.It seems that you can escape from the sky, but why you are going to fall into the abyss again, I can't figure it out!

Chapter 878

"It's not good to remove the seem! But with me, there is still a glimmer of hope. If you persist, don't give up too easily. Go downstairs and find some burnt firewood. The more carbonized the better, use the fastest Spend!"

Hong Tao didn't try to comfort Bumblebee's emotions. Everything he said now was nonsense. As long as he wasn't blind or foolish, he would soon find that the impasse was getting closer and closer.Rather than talking, do it, and give others a little encouragement with practical actions.

"Come on, paint me all black!" Bumblebee was very fast, there was no shortage of burnt wood in the building, and he quickly picked up a pile of it with his clothes.At this time, Hong Tao had already stripped off, only wearing a pair of shorts, and stood there with his arms open.

"Little fat man, if you are lucky enough not to die today, remember to go back and help me spread the word. Don't say anything now, listen to me. It should take a while for the zombies to completely encircle. You can use the thermal imaging scope to stare at about one kilometer to the south. The area from 165 degrees to 185 degrees guides me.

If my luck is good enough... No, your luck is good enough, maybe you can let me succeed.When you are lucky enough to sit in a high position in the future, if you still have the heart, think about everyone's interests before making a decision every time, and don't patronize yourself to seize power, it will be the greatest reward for me.

Be a man, don't be too narrow-minded, learn to grasp the big and let go of the small, don't take care of everything, otherwise you won't be able to take care of everything. "

While enjoying Benzhu's full-body smear service, he called Zhang Ke on the walkie-talkie.This trip is not the same as before, and it is very likely that we will never see each other again, and I still want to babble about some things.

"...Grandpa Hong, what are you doing here?"

Zhang Ke really didn't know what Hong Tao was doing. Ever since the great changes occurred on the battlefield, he held up his binoculars and faced the north, keeping an eye on the front line all the time.Suddenly received such a passage, turned around and looked, good guy, almost drew his gun and shot.On the top of the opposite building stood a dark humanoid monster, looking like a zombie.

"Of course it's to find the living corpse. You already know that. I'm not afraid of the zombie virus, and only I can get close to it. But you have to guide the direction clearly. Whether it's successful or not depends on the hammer."

Seeing Zhang Ke's astonished expression, Hong Tao was very relieved, which showed that his makeup skills were still effective.So he turned around and showed the other side that hadn't been painted with carbon black.

"Catch... catch the living corpses! But, how do you know where they are hidden?"

Zhang Ke really didn't expect this step. Apart from being surprised, he still had doubts.The Alliance Air Force has been scanning for several days without finding any trace of the living corpse. Could it be that this Grandpa Hong is not afraid of the zombie virus, but also can sense the location of the living corpse!

"...Observation, silly boy, the more critical the moment is, the more you need to be clear-headed. If you just focus on the present and panic like others, how can you lead others?

Did you pay attention to the area where the corpse dog appeared just now?Look, it's not negligent, it shouldn't be.Fortunately, I saw that they suddenly appeared around 165 degrees to the southeast and 190 degrees to the southwest, and the distance was not more than one kilometer.

During the preparatory meeting at the airport before crossing the river, Wang Gang got a city planning map. I also read it, but I didn’t find any large-scale subways or air-raid shelters under the city, which means that there are large-scale underground bunkers. The possibility is very small.

Calculating in this way, the place where the zombie dogs appeared should not be far from the place where the zombies hide.They should be hidden in the basement of a building near us these days. There are not many high-rise buildings in this area, so it should not be difficult to find.If you move quickly, you might be able to catch up! "

Hong Tao pointed to his head. His focus was indeed different from that of most people, or he had seen too many things, and most of the accidents could not distract him.

He had this kind of suspicion when the zombie dogs suddenly appeared. When the Jiaosi-like zombies of the X team were disturbed, he immediately came to a judgment. The signal will not have such a high intensity, and then the suspected area will come out.

"... But finding a living corpse should be useless, right?"

Zhang Ke nodded in agreement with this analysis, but he still didn't want Grandpa Hong to take risks among the zombies. Who can be sure that the living corpses only develop their heads but not their bodies.Even among human beings, Hong Tao is not considered a very powerful individual, and he will be killed by the horse if he fails to keep all the living corpses that have evolved for ten years.

"Well, now we can only use a dead horse as a living horse doctor. I guess that the one who controls the zombie tide this time is probably not a group of living corpses, at most there will be no more than two. If there are too many, there will be communication and communication between them." Coordination problem. As for the control range, it is easy to solve, it can increase the control area through the corpse dog.

Regardless of whether this guess is correct or not, killing the nearest one will definitely affect the actions of the zombie group. It will take time for other living zombies to recover, so you have a chance to rush out during this gap.Alright, let me empty my mind first, and help me point out the direction wholeheartedly. I will discuss other issues later. "

While talking, Bungy Pig has already completed the graffiti work. Although he is black and fat, and there is no artistic atmosphere all over his body, but this carbon black body is painted with priority, and there are even changes in the light in some places, which looks different. It looks a bit like a zombie.

"Brother Rat..." When Hong Tao tied a rope around his waist and was about to descend from the window on the 6th floor to the pile of corpses below, Bungy finally couldn't help it, and stretched out his hand to grab Hong Tao's wrist with great strength.

"Zhong Nanle, you have a talent for being a soldier, and this time you showed it off in front of the deputy chief of staff. Go find him after you get back. Don't be a coachman, join the army for a few years, maybe you can get along well The little officer should be right.

There is no feast that lasts forever, think about it, we were enemies back then, if it weren't for Iszawi, you might have died in my hands.People will meet many passers-by in their life, some can help you and some will harm you.

But no matter what role they play, they are still passers-by. They will not accompany you forever for the rest of your life. Sooner or later, you will be separated. This is fate!After going back, tell Hu Yang that it is a blessing to be together in this life, don’t be sad, you don’t understand the world of heroes, and you are not used to being heroes in the world, so let’s just leave it and do it for yourself!

If you still miss me, then keep your mouth shut, and don't tell anyone how I got there, just say that there will be no one in a blink of an eye.No matter what other people say, don't judge!Come on, send me down with your own hands, and give everyone a chance to survive.Hurry up, a hero may not be afraid of zombies, but he can't stand falling! "

Looking at the dark, fat and bearded face, and making a reluctant expression, Hong Tao's fear of seeing off syndrome reappeared.Not only did he not feel touched but also a little irritated, he stretched out his other hand, and opened Bunzhu's fingers one by one, climbed out of the window while talking, gestured an OK gesture, and never looked at it again.

It was windy, and there was still a little damp smell in the wind.The ancients said that the clouds and rain are about to come and the wind is all over the building. This may be what they said.But Hong Tao didn't brew any poetry, just cold.Although the skin was painted black, it was really not as good as the zombie's natural black skin, and it was cold all over.

"I'm down... oops! Fuck, where to bite, this is a fucking ass!"

Just as he stepped on his feet, he untied the rope around his waist and reported his progress to Zhang Ke through the walkie-talkie.But before finishing a sentence, there was a sharp pain in the buttocks. The zombies are really dedicated, they didn't let their makeup fool them, they came up without any hesitation and just took a bite!

"Grandpa Hong, Grandpa Hong, Grandpa Hong!" Zhang Ke's voice came from the walkie-talkie. He had never been bitten by a zombie before, so it was hard to imagine such a scene.

"Hush...don't shout, these things can distinguish human voices. Calm down, remember what I said, grasp the big and let go of the small. Now my life and death are small, whether I can break through is the big, and all decisions must be based on the big .Okay, I'll go to the 170-degree area first, and if it deviates, you can correct it for me with a hand stand!"

The failure of the make-up did not disappoint Hong Tao, his attire was not intended to confuse the zombies.This kind of monster doesn't rely on eyes to feel the outside world at all. Even if he finds the best painter in the league and dresses up as a blue devil, he still can't fool them.

This makeup is for zombie dogs. They seem to rely on vision as an important sense. As long as they are not too close, they should, maybe, probably be able to avoid them.It's really impossible, don't you still have two pistols on your thighs!

Chapter 879 Approved

"Grandpa Hong, Aunt Zhou wants to talk to you!" Before walking a hundred meters away, Zhang Ke called again in the headset. The child seemed disobedient, and told Zhou Yuan of his movements, intending to stop him suicidal behavior.

"Don't answer! Let me say it one last time. If it's not about the location, don't call again. Don't think that I will get lost without your guidance!" Hong Tao rejected the proposal without even thinking about it. It was useless to persuade him. It's the hero Yuluo, and he must have the demeanor of a hero.

Who has ever heard of heroes watching ordinary people suffer indifferently?Besides, among these people there are partners who have been fighting with him for a long time. They are 100% dead when they are surrounded by zombies, and he still has a good chance of surviving.
