Looking at the dozens of people in front of him, Yu Beichuan's depression was written on his face. He felt really heavy. After this battle, he didn't know how many people would be able to stand here.
"Leader, don't worry, as long as we rescue the tribe, we will die without regrets." Wei Shihai, an old man, saw through Yu Beichuan's mind at a glance. If there is a battle, there will be casualties. He knows this very well.
"Chief, I'm not afraid of death. I've lived for decades and I'm good enough," a middle-aged man said loudly. One of his children was still waiting for them to rescue him above the Heping Shopping Mall.
"Chief, I'm not afraid either..."
"As long as I can save people, it doesn't matter if I die again."
…
Everyone expressed their determination, "They are really a group of bloody people!" Yu Beichuan put himself in Yiyu's shoes and thought that he would do the same thing when Yiyu encountered this situation.
"Then let's start a war!" Yu Beichuan shouted. Since there is no choice, let's fight the zombies.
"Yes, start a war, save people..." Everyone was furious.
The small town of Akoslay was small, and due to space constraints, after some on-site inspections, Yubeichuan and the others decided that the battlefield would be on the street that was cleaned up in the afternoon.
"I'm going to inform the crowd in the shopping mall first." After setting the location for the war, Liang Ziqian reported in a low voice.
Until now, when she faced Yubeichuan, she still felt a little uncomfortable.
In any case, the leader agreed to go to war to save people. This is great news, and the tribesmen in the mall must know it.
"Okay, you go ahead," Yu Beichuan didn't notice the change in Liang Ziqian's expression. He also hoped that Liang Ziqian could communicate well with the people in the mall, so as to avoid something unexpected happening if people in the mall didn't understand the situation after the war started.
Liang Ziqian went alone, carrying a shoulder-high long bow, and quickly disappeared at the end of the street.
As the main battlefield, the street would definitely be destroyed after the war, but no one present objected. In their view, it didn't matter if the houses were gone. As long as there were people, there would be homes everywhere.
Around one o'clock in the morning, something unexpected happened. Two mutated wild dogs as big as calves suddenly appeared from behind a building and broke into the battlefield being set up.
A ferocious wild dog killed a middle-aged woman's throat in one fell swoop. Another mutated wild dog had its throat sealed with a sword by Yu Beichuan, who came for questioning, before it even launched an attack.
"Ugh..." The mutated wild dog that was killing the middle-aged woman put down the food in its mouth, raised its hair and rushed towards Yubeichuan. Yubeichuan used a head-on approach and hit it with punches and kicks. The wild dog didn't even have a chance to resist.
None, he fell to the ground motionless.
Looking at the middle-aged woman who was still twitching slightly on the ground, "It's hopeless..." Yu Beichuan shook his head, fate was like this, and it was hard to guard against bad luck.
One person was killed first in the final battle, which did not dampen the morale of everyone. To be honest, they had already ignored life and death before they came.
The middle-aged woman was a member of Wei Shihai's tribe. He was so distraught and helpless that he found a mat to cover the body and squatted aside, "Third Aunt, have a good trip..."
"Wei Shihai, bring a few people to collect dog blood." Yu Beichuan waited until Wei Shihai stood up before giving him this task.
"Don't worry, chief!" Wei Shihai agreed immediately. He had entered the role of his subordinate and fully recognized Yubeichuan.
The death of the middle-aged woman made everyone present hold their breath, and their actions became more efficient.
Soon, they collected three large pots full of dog blood. The blood was used as bait for the zombies, which happened to save them the trouble of going up the Yubeichuan Mountains to look for wild beasts to collect blood.
Chongqing
Beichuan walked forward alone, guarded the intersection, and killed no less than fifty zombies that crossed the border. He did not want the tragedy just now to happen again.
Everyone was busy until two o'clock in the morning when the battlefield was basically set up.
At about three o'clock in the morning, Zhang Tieniu's group also returned safely, and unexpectedly drove back an oil tanker.
On both sides of the street, which is about 700 to 800 meters long, quilts, clothes, wood and other flammable items are densely piled up. Plastic bags filled with gasoline are sealed and hung on them.
When everything was ready, Yubeichuan asked most of the people to evacuate to the end of the battlefield. At the end, a stone wall was built with bricks and stones to prevent zombies from escaping.
The oil tanker drove to the entrance and stopped. This vehicle served to prevent the zombies from retreating.
A middle-aged man is responsible for detonating the vehicle alone. Once all the zombies enter the preset battlefield, he will detonate the vehicle. This is a life-or-death mission.
The middle-aged man had a calm face and cold eyes. All his family members were killed in the mouth of zombies, and Yubeichuan had no reason to reject him.
Yubeichuan carefully placed small basins and buckets of mutated wild dog's blood along the street, and the strong smell of blood filled the entire street.
"Let's begin," Yu Beichuan rushed to the edge of the mall, poured a pot of mutated wild dog blood on the zombies, and immediately retreated. Zhang Tieniu followed beside him, beating the gong and shouting loudly.
Hearing the sound, the zombies besieging the mall turned around and most of them staggered toward Yu Beichuan and Zhang Tieniu. About a few hundred zombies remained unmoved, which was expected.
Yubeichuan slowly retreated step by step, kicking the blood on the ground from time to time. Zhang Tieniu followed beside him, beating gongs and drums and jumping around. Guided by the smell of blood and sounds, groups of zombies staggered over.
Seen from a distance, Yu Beichuan and Zhang Tieniu look like two unscrupulous Taoists... they are dancing to a great master.
Liang Ziqian led three archers selected from the family to stand on the roof of the tallest house. The small bucket next to it was filled with about a hundred rockets soaked in fuel. This was also following the practice of the ancient sages.
After all the zombies enter the preset encirclement, their role is to assist in igniting the fire.
The strong smell of blood made the zombies go crazy. Around five o'clock in the morning, the last zombie staggered over and entered the preset battlefield on the street.
"Start the war!" Yubeichuan shouted.
"Start the war..."
"Start the war!" A loud shout followed, with a sense of desolation and determination that would never return, making people seem to have returned to the era of bloody battles by their ancestors.
"Pi..." A loud arrow roared into the air, breaking the silence of the blood-red night sky. That was Liang Ziqian's signal for the sudden start of the war.
"Boom!" With the loud noise that shook the sky and the earth, the oil tanker exploded at the entrance of the battlefield street. Scarlet fireballs mixed with billowing smoke rose into the sky. The huge fireballs were as dazzling as fireworks.
A fiery red light pierced the sky and broke through the dark night...
Fiery waves were raging everywhere like turbulent waves, and the surrounding houses collapsed one after another. Broken reinforced concrete flew and fell like a meteor shower, and the entire town of Akosre was crumbling.
"Chichi..." One after another, the flying arrows with flames shot out mercilessly, shooting at the flammable objects in the street.
The plastic bag filled with gasoline burst, and the flames followed the gasoline everywhere, and the whole street began to burn...
The zombies on the street are scurrying around like headless flies with flames on their bodies, unable to escape.
The fire burned ragingly for more than three hours and was slowly extinguished until about eight o'clock in the morning.
Yubeichuan stands in the building in the distance,
At a glance, all the zombies that entered the battlefield should be completely destroyed according to his observation.
According to incomplete statistics by Liang Ziqian and others, more than 3,000 zombies were killed in the flames. Except for one person lost before the war, a middle-aged man who volunteered to die heroically during the battle, the others were unscathed.
"We succeeded!" The crowd shouted wildly, with tears in their eyes.
"The leader is mighty!" Wei Shihai shouted from the bottom of his heart.
"Chief, chief..." The adoring crowd surrounded Yubeichuan, and Yubeichuan felt a little embarrassed with their grateful gazes.
There was still smoke on the battlefield, and the smell of burnt meat lingered in the air. "Let's take a look together," Yu Beichuan waved his hand and eagerly led everyone to the battlefield to view the results of the battle.
After several hours of raging fire, the entire street was burned down to only a fragment of broken eaves and broken walls. The surrounding ground was covered with a thick layer of ashes. From time to time, charred zombie corpses could be seen curled up into a ball.
There was a burning smell in the air, mixed with the smell of corpses.
"Chief, it's too hot, we can't stand it..."
"You guys go back first," Yu Beichuan himself felt a wave of heat. Even though the evolved body was more powerful, large beads of sweat fell like raindrops on his forehead.
"Let's go out..." Everyone retreated, and Yu Beichuan and Zhang Tieniu continued to move forward.
The fire was merciless, and there were still several bodies that looked like third-level zombies on the ground. It seemed that they, as evolved zombies, had nowhere to escape in the fire.
Think about it, under the continuous high temperature in the fire scene, the brains of the zombies are boiling and cooked, and the skin is gone, and the hair is barely attached, so how can microorganisms escape?
At the street entrance to the scene, a huge black pit was formed after the explosion of the oil tanker. There was nothing in it. There was once a living life there.
Yu Beichuan stood in front of the pit, standing solemnly and mourning, "Brother, thank you, have a good journey..."
"Have a good trip..." Zhang Tieniu followed and consciously bowed in the direction of Dakeng.
Looking from here, the zombies around Heping Mall are extremely quiet, as if they were frightened by last night's incident. Not a single zombie has the courage to approach this place.
The air was filled with the smell of roasting meat. It was the same no matter where you went, and your whole sense of smell was greatly affected. This gave Yubeichuan another good idea.
"Chief, what do you think this is?" A battle completely changed Liang Ziqian's view. She obviously respects and sincerely admires this man who is much younger than herself.
Holding a small stone in his hand, it was gray and shining with light. Yubeichuan was ecstatic, and the zombies crystallized!
"Hey, where did you find this thing?" Yu Beichuan couldn't suppress the joy in his heart.
"In the battlefield, on the ground, a clan member accidentally found it from the head of a zombie." Liang Ziqian replied. She couldn't understand why the leader would be so excited when he saw this small stone.
After a fire, the zombie crystals were not burned and were all preserved intact. These are resources for cultivation.
"What great news!" Yu Beichuan thought excitedly in his heart. Zombie crystals are not afraid of fire and can be preserved.
"Ziqian, quickly gather all your clan members and go all out to find these small stones. Remember to search carefully and don't let go of any one!" Yu Beichuan looked at the zombie crystal in his hand.
It's a good thing that can improve your strength.
"Okay, leader, resolutely complete the task." Liang Ziqian didn't ask the reason. There was a reason for the leader's order. She just acted boldly and carried it out to the end.
