You must know that in order to ensure the safety of the reconnaissance team, each reconnaissance team is equipped with two teams. Although not all of the six field members of the reconnaissance team are from the gospel team, the two team leaders are experienced foreigners.
Qin, how could it be possible that it would be gone just like that?
Maria then told Egger that according to the oral accounts of these mountain people who had a chance to escape, the infected did not take the road. They walked directly through the mountain forest. When they discovered a wave of infected people, they were already surrounded.
Subsequently, the encirclement shrank smaller and smaller. Just when these mountain people were desperate and prepared to fight to the death, the infected group suddenly went offline.
The astonished mountain people naturally did not miss this opportunity. They rolled and crawled out of the dense forest of infected people, and then fled onto the road.
Homeless, with no way to go, and no solution, this group of people suddenly thought of Jixi Town. They could report this extremely important information to Jixi Town, and maybe they could get the gospel team to protect them.
So, these guys walked from yesterday until this morning, and then they reached Wasa Town. They were escorted by the Wasa Town convoy, and then they arrived at Jixi Town.
After hearing Maria's description, Egg fell into thinking.
Why Iger didn't advocate using a mid-way interception first was because he considered whether infected people would not take the road.
After the battle in Puduo City, it took almost another month for Puduo County to completely eliminate those infected people who had wandered into the wild.
Biological evolution is driven by profit.
The infected people initially moved along the road, which was not a sign of wisdom, but purely because the human body moved faster on the road.
However, as field teams continue to intercept and kill infected people moving on the road, moving on the road has become an inefficient behavior. At this time, the infected people will abandon the road and choose to walk in the wild.
According to Maria's story, Egger probably understood that the wave of infected people coming from Rama City did not follow the winding mountain road this time. They followed a straight line.
After the wave of infected people set off from Rama City, under the command of the Blood Plague Brain, they directly drew a straight line to Puduo County, and then crossed the mountains and ridges along the straight line.
Perhaps climbing over mountains and ridges is a bit unbelievable to survivors, but human climbing ability is actually very strong. With the use of hands and feet and regardless of pain, with unlimited physical strength, humans can climb almost all the cliffs and mountain canyons on foot.
most of the mountains.
Even if they accidentally fall down, it is not a serious injury to the infected. Besides, even if a few hundred people are killed by the fall, compared to the tide of hundreds of thousands of infected people, it is simply negligible.
Having said this, Egg also understood why there was no reconnaissance team.
The reconnaissance team had vehicles, so they must be conducting reconnaissance along the road, and the wave of infected people was moving in the forest. By the time they discovered it, the infected people had already blocked them in front, back, left and right.
When going out in the field, you need to have enough confidence in the car, the crystallization of human technology, but don't have too much confidence in the car.
Even Egg had heard of the survivors who were surrounded by infected people while driving in their cars no less than ten times, so it was not inconceivable that the field reconnaissance team was wiped out.
The most important thing for people is to be prepared for danger in times of peace and avoid various risks in advance, rather than trying to escape by relying on clever operations when the risks are already coming.
Although the reconnaissance team leader was experienced, he was not flexible enough in key areas, which caused the entire reconnaissance team to fall into a trap.
If Egg were the leader of the investigation, he would lead the team to rush directly in front of the infected, get close to investigate, and slowly retreat as the tide of infected moves, while observing the movement patterns of the infected and calculating their movement speed.
Wait until it gets dark, retreat 20 kilometers to set up camp, and get up early the next morning to see where the infected people have gone.
Without even thinking about it, the investigation leader this time adopted the most conventional approach. He probably just found a place with a good view to look out, and stupidly waited for the wave of infected people to arrive.
After Maria told Egger the news, she waited for Egger to make up his mind.
Egg banged his spoon on the dinner plate. After thinking for a while, he said to Maria: "First, in the past few days, broadcast the news about the incoming wave of infected people through the radio to remind the other three
The reconnaissance team needs to be alert, don't let the infected take a backseat.
Second, according to the content of the meeting that day, gather the team and materials. The materials and personnel on my side will arrive in Jixi Town as soon as the afternoon.
Third, I haven’t thought about the third yet, I’ll talk about it when I get here.”
After Iger hung up the phone, he pushed the dining table away, then got out of bed, put on the priest's clothes hanging on the hanger, and finally hung the wooden cross on his chest seriously.
The more battles occur, the more calm the coach must be, or at least pretend to be calm, so as to give others confidence.
After Iger went out, he walked directly to the bell tower and rang the bell in the bell tower.
The melodious bells sounded from the bell tower of Ross Town Cathedral, and those who heard the bells could not help but count silently: "One, two, three..."
After counting to three, without any further thought, everyone dropped what they were doing and ran towards the cathedral.
Iger imitated the appearance of Father Locke in his mind. He stood upright on the steps of the cathedral. The team was quickly assembled, and Iger ordered Sister Catherine to turn off the bells.
"Members of the reclamation regiment, the war is about to begin." Egg held a loudspeaker and said to the neatly arranged team, "The combat plan will be implemented in accordance with the plan issued a few days ago.
Allen, you lead the first brigade to count and assemble supplies, and set off to Jixi Town before 3 p.m.
Nicholas, Bill, you two will lead the second brigade and go to Rama City from the main road. Don’t rush too fast. Not all infected people may have taken the mountain road. Your first priority is to raid Rama City and search for it.
And destroy the Heart of Blood Plague.
Note that the Blood Plague Heart will spray poisonous gas and destroy it from a distance. Also, after attacking the Blood Plague Heart, pay attention to the counterattack of the infected people.
As for the wave of infected people on the road, you should act accordingly.
Erica, the third team and Rose Town will be left to you, keep an eye on it and wait for us to return victoriously."
After he finished speaking, Iger saw that everyone was still looking at him blankly. He was also stunned for a moment, and then he came to his senses.
"God is with you.
Amen"
Egger blessed his team members loudly.
"Amen" everyone responded in unison, their voices loud and firm.
Okay, pre-war mobilization and adding buffs have been completed. Egger has found Joanna, and the two of them have to go to Jixi Town first.
…
There is a saying: when the house leaks, it rains continuously all night, and when the boat is late, there is a strong wind.
I just danced like crazy yesterday, and Iger is still in a terrible weak state. As a result, I am about to go to Jixi Town to formulate a detailed battle plan, and then lead the team to fight.
This is like staying up all night playing games on the weekend, and suddenly you realize it's dawn, so you turn off the game and get ready for a good night's sleep, only to receive a call from your superior saying there's urgent work, come to the company immediately
work overtime.
Iger sat in the passenger seat and kept rubbing his head while Joanna was driving.
Joanna has always held the title of Assistant to the Chairman. On days when she was not working in the field, she was helping Shandora with internal affairs. When she was working in the field, she was still partnering with Iger.
The atmosphere in the car was very dull today, and neither of them spoke.
In the past, no matter what kind of field trip they were on, as soon as they got in the car, Iger and Joanna would talk about everything.
Now, Iger had no extra thought or energy to pay attention to Joanna. The sorrow in his heart was like the dark clouds in the sky.
However, the silence between Iger and Joanna is not just a day or two. Since Iger became a priest, Joanna and Iger have spent much less time together. Sometimes even when they are together, Joanna always feels that there is an invisible gap.
Between the two of them, Joanna felt that Egger was gradually moving away from her.
Joanna, who was driving, gritted her teeth when she saw an unfamiliar fork in the road ahead, so she turned the steering wheel and the pickup truck turned onto this dirt road.
"Where are you going?" Egg saw the car veered off the main road, so he asked Joanna.
"Front." Joanna only replied. Although Iger felt a little confused, he didn't ask any more questions.
After driving two or three kilometers off the road, there was a small settlement with five or six houses in front of her. Joanna parked the pickup truck behind a house. She opened the door and got out of the car. She pulled out the battery and inserted it into the driver's seat.
shotgun.
Seeing Joanna pick up the shotgun, Egger naturally got out of the car and followed her. He pulled out his M17.
The two of them walked forward in silence. Joanna led Iger to a two-story residential house. Iger nodded to her, then reached out and pushed open the door.
The house was empty, and Egg quickly observed with a gun. Most of the things here had been looted, perhaps by people from Ross Town. Except for a small amount of furniture, there was only thick dust here.
Egger glanced at the dust on the ground. Judging from the thickness and traces of the dust, no one had been here for at least two or three months.
Egger turned his head and glanced at Joanna in confusion. Joanna pointed her eyes at Egger upstairs. Egger nodded. Then he held a gun in both hands and walked up the creaking wooden stairs with caution.
building.
Study room, empty.
The toilet is empty.
Storage room, empty.
Master bedroom, empty.
Iger put down the gun in his hand and turned around in confusion. At this time, he saw Joanna closing the door and locking it.
"What are you doing?" Egger was completely confused. He didn't know what Joanna meant by raiding here.
Joanna walked up to Iger in a few steps. She grabbed the gun in Iger's hand and threw it on the ground. Then she pulled Iger to the bed where only the mattress was left. She reached out and pushed Iger on the mattress.
"puff"
As soon as Iger fell down, countless dust was thrown up by him. Iger was choked by the dust. He coughed twice first, and then sneezed.
Before Iger could come to his senses, Joanna suddenly threw herself on the bed and pressed her body against him.
In surprise, Iger was about to reach out and push Joanna away, only to hear Joanna say in his ear: "Don't reject me."
Iger's outstretched hand stopped in mid-air, and then he hugged Joanna tightly.
