The two captains looked at each other, and they both saw obvious uneasiness in each other's eyes. To be honest, they were not afraid of the enemy's fierce attack. After all, there were hundreds of people in the base. And each one was an awakened person, and they would do something openly.
No matter how you frame it, it will always be clear.
What they fear is this kind of mysterious attack, which is completely confusing.
We clearly heard the sound of enemy attack sentries on alert over there, but could they escape from the battlefield and rush to that side for reinforcements? Obviously not.
Their defense zone is here, and they must stick to it and not leave it at all.
After their defense area is attacked, they are always suspicious. They always feel that there are countless enemies lurking at the end of the invisible field of vision, and they may launch a general attack on the base at any time.
This is the biggest weakness of Xie Chun's gang. They have no experience in hard battles and almost no scientific daily training. Once they encounter a war, their unprofessionalism and lack of discipline will be obvious.
The whistles of enemy attacks came one after another, which created an illusion in other areas of the base. Enemy attacks came from all directions. Are we surrounded?
Is the military and official forces dispatched together to destroy the base?
Within the base, there was a lack of overall scheduling and communication. At this time, Xie Chun's disadvantage of not being in the base became apparent.
If Xie Chun was in charge at the base, he would personally take action, arrange for the guards battalions to move around and share information with each battalion as soon as possible to appease people and at least make the entire base less nervous.
But Xie Chun's substitute obviously doesn't have the ability or the responsibility.
He himself is a substitute, a sculpture for worship, and he can never come out to appear. Once he comes out to appear, he will not be able to work, and may even be exposed on the spot.
Sometimes, decisions at critical moments, as well as personal aura and demeanor, even the most perfect stand-in with a flawless image cannot imitate the charm of temperament.
As a result, the base fell into great chaos.
Fortunately, the structure Xie Chun set for the base is still there, and everyone at least knows what they should do even if a battle breaks out. Even if people are panic-stricken, the entire base has not completely exploded.
However, with people in panic, if this situation is allowed to run unchecked and this sense of crisis is shrouded, a collapse will happen sooner or later.
The leaders of several battalions would naturally not let this happen.
Mr. Dao from the Blade Camp was the first to react. He led a few personal followers and immediately arrived at the defense area at the base gate.
When the two team captains saw Mr. Dao coming, it was as if they saw the backbone, and they suddenly became much more stable.
"What's going on? Did the first wave of enemy attack sentries come from your side? Why is there no movement here? Who is the enemy? What's the background?" Master Dao asked several questions in one breath.
The supporting team leader subconsciously stepped back half a step, looked at Qingzi, and motioned for him to answer.
Qingzi also felt very angry in his heart, but he did not dare to be careless when facing Mr. Dao, and he had no choice but to briefly state what happened just now.
After all, Master Dao is the second-in-command, so he still has some mental qualities.
After hearing this, he did not lose his temper too much. He walked to the two piles of meat and looked at them for a while, then frowned and said, "This must be a trick of the enemy, deliberately creating panic through a terrorist attack."
"Master Dao is wise." Naturally, the two team captains could not deny Master Dao's judgment.
"Everyone, cheer up and keep an eye on your respective defense zones. Try not to let any brothers be left alone," Master Dao ordered.
This is not difficult, these people naturally obey and do what Master Dao tells them.
"Master Dao, how can the enemy be so weird? Could it be that he is really an evil ghost?" Qingzi had some psychological shadow and couldn't help but ask.
"Where do so many evil monsters come from? It would be easier to deal with evil monsters. We are all awakened, ghosts should be afraid of us!" Master Dao said coldly.
"Yes, but the method of killing is too hidden. The murderer has to be found out. Otherwise, if they are allowed to create panic like this, I'm afraid there will be a lot of chaos this night." Qingzi couldn't help but say a few more words.
.
"Hmph, you just need to guard the defense zone. Master Xie and I will naturally make plans for these things. These are mostly tricks played by the enemy to deliberately test our background." Mr. Dao made this conclusion.
"Yes, we can't mess up our position." Another team leader agreed, "If they really had the ability to attack our base, they wouldn't engage in these shameful little tricks. The more they engage in these little tricks, the more they prove that they are not capable of attacking our base.
With this ability, you can only use this disgusting method to disgust people."
Master Dao did not answer the question. He was calm and would not make wrong judgments based on his subordinates' words.
After some encouragement at the scene and a shot of chicken blood for everyone present, Mr. Dao did not stay long. Instead, he ordered a few of his elite men to patrol around the base to collect intelligence from everywhere and provide accurate intelligence.
Arriving everywhere quickly makes people panic.
As long as each defense zone defends its position without making any mistakes, even if there is an intruder, it may not cause much trouble.
The most urgent thing now is not to find and destroy the enemy, but to stabilize the interior, appease people's hearts, and prevent the interior from collapsing due to terror first.
Master Dao is different from Xie Chun. He has always been more down-to-earth, and has a deeper understanding of the conditions of each battalion than Xie Chun, and he knows the specific conditions of each battalion better.
In this current situation, Master Dao naturally knows better what to do.
Master Dao didn't even check the next place where the enemy attack alarm was issued, but went straight to Xie Chun's residence. At this time, when he saw Master Xie, he asked him for an idea, or even came forward to reassure people.
Urgent matter.
As for the enemy attack alarm, Mr. Dao guessed that the situation at the main entrance of the base was probably similar. There should have been a small-scale sneak attack, with some casualties.
The casualties caused by such a sneak attack are currently acceptable to the base.
Master Dao quickly arrived at Master Xie's residence, but was stopped by people from the guard camp.
"Master Dao, Master Xie has already rested. You'd better not disturb him at this point, right?"
Master Dao stared in disbelief: "Do you know what you said? You don't have ears? The enemy attack alarm was not mentioned or something? The enemies have all come to the base, can Master Xie sleep?"
Others may be afraid of the Guards Battalion, but who is Master Dao? He is the second-in-command of the base. No matter how strong the elite of the Guards Battalion is, they cannot openly contradict Master Dao.
The guard was hesitant: "Master Dao, as you know, it is our duty to protect Master Xie. How about you give us a report later?"
Master Dao waved his hand angrily: "Hurry up, hurry up, it's so urgent, why do you still care about this?"
After a while, the guard returned: "Master Dao, Master Xie has spoken, asking you to organize your manpower and deploy all your strength. He has other important matters tonight and is unable to come forward."
Master Dao was in disbelief: "Are you sure these are Master Xie's original words?"
The guard smiled bitterly and said: "Master Dao, even if I have a few brains, I don't dare to spread the word randomly. It must be Master Xie's original words. Master Xie also said that the team has not encountered any test before, and tonight he is...
We need to test the performance of each battalion to see if the brothers he has raised can handle the task."
test?
Mr. Dao is a little hesitant. Is this a test of the brothers in each battalion, or is it a test of my old sword?
But Mr. Xie has already spoken. As the second-in-command, can Mr. Dao still force his way in? After all, he is the second-in-command, and Mr. Xie’s authority cannot be challenged. If he forces his way in, his nature will change. And the two of them
The relationship between them will become very difficult to handle in the future.
Although he was full of doubts, Master Dao was not stubborn after all. Although he was angry when he didn't see Xie Chun, he still left with a dark face.
Since Mr. Xie has spoken and asked Lao Dao to take charge of the overall situation, it would be a bit pretentious for him to shirk it. Speaking of his understanding of each battalion and commanding the battle, Mr. Dao indeed feels that he is doing his part.
No matter what Xie Chun thinks, Master Dao feels that he has a clear conscience. Since you asked me to do it, then I will do it.
An order was issued immediately, and all battalion teams waiting for shift change were on standby and entered combat status.
All lights in the base are turned on, so there is no need to worry about energy consumption.
Non-combatants must stay in the house and are not allowed to leave the house without permission.
Inside the base, a state of martial law has been entered.
As orders were issued one after another, the panic in the base was relieved a lot.
But the sense of security that the house can provide is actually limited. What can give them a sense of security is the war outside the base and specific enemy attack intelligence.
But no one can provide this specific information.
Because the whistles of enemy attacks have appeared in three places so far. And the number of people attacked has been close to ten.
Some of them were cut into pieces, some were completely black and miserable, some were swollen like purple balloons, some had their lower body chopped to pieces, and some were hanged directly from a high place...
Every way of death seems very tragic.
Each of these dead people is an awakened person, and more or less has some awakening skills. Although they are not the top combat power of the base, they are definitely not the kind of existence that is just a fake.
But without exception, they all died violent deaths.
How they died, who the murderer was, and how the murderer did it, there is no solid evidence until now. It feels like they died inexplicably and in an unclear way.
A kind of psychology spreads panic in the base.
When something cannot be explained scientifically, it is naturally inevitable to be associated with ghosts and gods. Especially in this weird world, evil ghosts do indeed exist.
As for the combatants at the base, which one of them didn’t kill anyone? Which one of them didn’t have the ghosts of grievances or ghosts under them?
Could it be that the wronged souls who were killed by them before evolved into resentful ghosts and came to seek revenge on them?
This simple concept of karma and retribution is still a relatively popular way of thinking in the minds of the people at the bottom.
As this fear continues to spread, this thinking will continue to expand.
At first, it was just some ordinary soldiers who thought so. Later, some squad leaders were also affected and inevitably had some doubts.
Isn't it really the revenge of a resentful ghost? If so, then I don't know how this trouble will end. Although in the weird era, the deterrence of ghosts is not as scary as in the sunny era, but if it can't be dealt with, it will be harmful to everyone.
The psychological deterrent is still huge.
Especially the soldiers in each battalion who had seen the tragic conditions of the deceased were even more deeply affected.
Fortunately, Dao Ye's order was issued in time, and he personally inspected each defense area, gave lectures to each defense area, and boosted morale.
Let me tell you, the base has strong troops and geographical advantages, so it is not afraid of a battle. As long as the respective defense areas are well defended, these little tricks are not a big deal.
He also promised that he, Master Dao, would personally come to the front line and fight together with the brothers, and would never hide behind and let the brothers charge into the battle.
Dao Ye personally took action, and this psychological comfort was still very important. At least the uneasy and anxious mood of each camp was greatly relieved.
But tonight is destined to be anything but peaceful.
Just after the situation became a little calmer, bad news suddenly came from the defense area. It was said that some strange bugs appeared in a certain defense area of the Vulture Camp. They were specially designed to attack people's necks. Their bites were severe and painful. It was suspected that there were
It is highly poisonous. The brothers who were bitten have very strong symptoms and now need medical assistance.
The worst condition at the base is in the medical area.
After all, they are in the countryside, and the largest medical institution they can raid is a health center in a township.
How many medical equipment can a health center in a remote rural area have? The medicine reserves are also pitiful.
The most critical thing is that there is a serious shortage of medical manpower. The strange era was not formed in a day or two. Before the disaster, the entire society had actually slowly lost its normal functioning structure.
Although there are people at the health center who are always on duty, most doctors and nurses are no longer able to come to work.
Therefore, even if Xie Chun and others raided the health center, they could only get very few medical professionals, not to mention some who were bullied to death by them.
When more and more patients are bitten by strange bugs, this medical aid is obviously far from enough.
The most important thing is that even the doctors arrested by the health center can't do anything about this kind of weird wound. After all, physicians have a fixed set of rules for treating patients. They are not good at treating mosquito bites and insect bites, and it is not their responsibility.
Specialize in areas.
In addition, this is a strange era, and the wounds bitten by strange insects are obviously different from those in the sunny era, which makes it even more out of line.
The two doctors at the base stared at the scary purple wound like spider silk, which was enlarging and turning black at a speed visible to the naked eye. After many years of medical experience, they already had a premonition that this was a highly poisonous wound.
It is spreading, and there is no way to deal with it without the right medicine.
And the speed at which the poison develops means that even if treatment is carried out on site, it will be too late.
The battalion officer of the Vulture Battalion is the bald man. He is the most anxious when he sees his brothers being bitten constantly.
He could barely accept the death of one or two people, but they fell one by one, and in just a short time, more than a dozen fell, which made him unable to sit still at all. He felt that he had to find a way with Mr. Xie.
