Chapter 557 Arsenal Survivors Meeting White Phosphorus Bomb
Chapter 557 Arsenal Survivors Meeting White Phosphorus Bomb
"Captain, the corn is gone, we can continue to plant, or we can expand the search area and look for supplies! We have guns and ammunition, what are we afraid of?" someone continued to console him.
The man known as the group leader shook his head and said, "It's already September. In another month, the weather will turn colder. It's too late to plant again at this time! And the supplies in the town and surrounding villages have been plundered by us.
Once it is clean, if we expand the search area... there will be a lot of casualties. Today's zombies and other evolved creatures are not the same as last year!"
As he spoke, the faces of the people around him became serious.
Luffy and the others also understood and agreed with what the leader said.
Last year, the level of zombies and other evolved creatures was not high, and soldiers skilled in using firearms could still pose a great threat to them. However, nowadays, the strength of zombies and evolved creatures has generally improved, and a large number of third-level or even fourth-level evolved creatures have appeared.
In this way, the effectiveness of firearms will be much smaller. If we continue the operation last year, the casualties will definitely be much greater.
Therefore, the leader's concerns are not unreasonable.
"Let's go!" The leader sighed and called to the people around him, "Let's think of another way. If it doesn't work, we can only continue to expand the search area regardless of casualties. Oh, I'm so worried..."
The others still followed their leader with solemn expressions and left.
Luffy waved his hand to follow them.
After passing through a grassland, Luffy followed the group of people onto an asphalt road. This was an asphalt road that was wider than the provincial highway. The weeds on both sides of the road were already very high. Maybe in a few years, the weeds would disappear.
It will destroy the entire asphalt road and slowly erase the traces of pre-apocalyptic civilization.
They entered Dongshan along the asphalt road. The asphalt road wound through the mountains and went deeper and deeper into the mountains.
This is consistent with the route of the arsenal in the map provided by New World. It seems that the end of this asphalt road is the arsenal.
Sure enough, after traveling for a while, two military green off-road vehicles were parked on the roadside.
Soon, Luffy and others watched as the group got into the military vehicle, turned around and drove away.
Luffy and the others were left looking at each other in confusion.
Luffy shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly, "Let's go."
They walked on this asphalt road for more than an hour before they saw the so-called arsenal.
The arsenal was built in a bulldozed mountainous area. It has a high wall made of red bricks, which has a sense of the times. The gate is very majestic. There are only a few words on it, "Factory 508".
The name also echoes the characteristics of the era. There was a time when military industries like this were strictly confidential. Names were only coded with numbers. Only insiders within the military knew what each codename meant.
For example, the "504 Nuclear Industrial Base" that Shuguang once visited was once just called the "504 Factory", and was later renamed the 504 He Industrial Base.
"Big boss, boss, there are four people standing guard lurking inside the gate."
Li Jipeng issued an early warning.
Ignoring it, several people walked around the city wall for a short distance and climbed over the wall one after another.
According to Luffy's opinion, the behavior of these survivors determines Dawn's attitude towards them.
How can we get the most objective picture of the survivors? The only way is to see it with our own eyes and listen to it with our own ears.
"Squad Leader Wang, can you smell where that group of people is?"
After entering the factory, Luffy looked at the numerous workshops and houses of various sizes in the factory and asked.
"Okay, but it will take some time."
After getting Luffy's consent, Wang Zhaocai began to sniff. His nose, which was more sensitive than a dog, kept moving. After a while, he waved to Luffy and others to follow.
They kept walking through the factory rooms full of age, and soon came to a building that was built in recent years.
Wang Zhaocai pointed to the building and said, "They just entered this building. The smell inside is so mixed that it's hard to distinguish!"
"It doesn't matter, as long as you know they are in the building!" Luffy said, leading the way into the building.
As soon as they entered the building, they met the survivors. They saw the survivors walking in a hurry. As they walked, they talked to the people next to them, "I wonder what the head of the group has called for a meeting?"
The three hurried survivors, dressed in military uniforms, were on the second floor in the blink of an eye.
"Follow up!"
Immediately, Luffy and others followed the three survivors to the fifth floor, the highest floor, and saw the door of the conference room where many people were already seated open. Sitting inside was the group from before, and the leader was sitting in the conference room.
On the main seat of the room.
"It seems they are going to hold a meeting." Ruan Sisi whispered.
"Then listen to what issues they want to discuss."
Luffy gave the order, and several people stood quietly at the door.
After everyone inside was seated, the meeting began.
The first person to speak was the group leader, who said, "You all must know that the corn field we have worked hard for several months has been lost to a group of pigs, so we want to use this batch of corn for the winter.
It failed. Now if we want to survive the winter safely, we must find another way. Now everyone is thinking about what we should do? How can we safely obtain winter supplies."
After he finished speaking, the conference room became quiet.
Decisions involving life and death are not so easy for people to talk about.
Even if they have something in mind, no one wants to be the first to speak.
Seeing this, the regiment leader said again, "Let's all talk and brainstorm. Maybe your ideas can solve the big problems in our base? It doesn't matter if it's not good or immature."
After receiving encouragement from the group leader, some people began to be eager to give it a try. A man said, "Captain, if you want to obtain a large amount of supplies now, you must recover a village or even a town. After all, it has been more than a year, and most of the supplies have been
After spoilage, only a few parts can still be eaten, but it is impossible for more than 20 of us to do it. Otherwise, if we give them guns, I don’t believe that we can’t conquer a village if we work together as one?"
"No! They are all civilians. How can we let them participate in the battle? They have no experience fighting zombies at all. They will definitely not escape death on the battlefield! Besides, they have never touched a gun at all. Even if
Giving them guns is a waste of bullets."
Luffy heard the captain's decisive refusal.
"We are all soldiers. In times of crisis, we should stand up and protect the people instead of thinking of using them as cannon fodder. Such thoughts must not occur again."
The leader's voice came again.
"Then I have no choice. With two hundred people and two hundred mouths, the daily consumption is not a small amount." The person who had previously expressed the opinion fell silent after speaking.
At this time, someone else said, "Otherwise, let's cut the supply in half! If we try to get some supplies, the suffering will be over."
"No, the supply is already very low. We can no longer fill our stomachs. If we reduce it any more, people may starve to death." The group leader rejected another person's suggestion.
"Captain, I remember there are several batches of weapons in Dongshan's warehouse. We can use them!" Someone else suggested, "If we use it well, we can wipe out all the zombies in a town, let alone a village."
All."
"You mean those batches of white phosphorus incendiary bombs and ground-penetrating bombs?" the regiment leader said quietly.
"That's right!"
"No, once those incendiary bombs are used, all kinds of materials will be burned, and we will get nothing." Someone objected.
"Hey, I'm talking about proper use. What does proper use mean? Of course, we don't launch it into the town. As long as we choose a place in advance, set up the incendiary bombs, and then attract the zombies in the town, it will be fine. It's just this plan
It’s also very troublesome. The nearest YH town is 20 kilometers away from us. These 20 kilometers are still a big difficulty for us.”
"That's right. Nowadays, you may encounter danger when you leave the factory. It's frustrating. I have weapons but can't use them. It's really frustrating!"
Hearing this, Luffy and others' eyes lit up.
The ant nest in the Stone Forest Scenic Area has not been solved yet. Isn't there a solution?
This is a weapon known as "Hellfire" and "Anti-Humanity"
