Chapter 1653 The calamity of the dead is power after all
With a huge question mark on Wang Sihan's head, the off-road vehicle finally returned to the Dingbian gathering place.
"Solanta, you get out of the car and check the traces of the zombies. Wang Sihan drives the car into the city and hides it. Lao Hei gets out of the car and climbs the city wall with me."
Liu Shiba took Lao Hei out of the car while assigning tasks.
By this time, the thick fog had dissipated and the sky was bright. The entire gathering place was as quiet as a dead city within the visual range.
Standing on the city wall, Liu Shiba looked far into the distance and discovered an extremely wide walking route trampled by zombies. After bypassing the wall of the gathering place, it extended further away...
The direction in which the zombies were extending was indeed the gathering point of the Wang family on the edge of the primeval forest.
This Hou Mubai is indeed not a normal person. This guy has taken the four words of killing and selling goods to the extreme!
In his eyes, grabbing equipment may be a trivial matter, but driving zombies to massacre the city is his greatest pleasure.
From the mouth of the man who was killed earlier, we learned that this group of people, or rather this gathering place in Panlong Mountain, had engaged in similar transactions of killing people and selling goods for as many as thirteen times.
Thirteen gathering places were attacked and destroyed by zombie waves without any precautions. The largest one had a population of 300,000, the medium-sized ones had a population of hundreds of thousands or 700,000 or 80,000, and the smallest one had only 10,000 people.
This is an astonishing number. You can easily calculate that this gathering place on Panlong Mountain killed millions of survivors in just a few years.
It is very likely that, except for the larger and stronger gathering places within a radius of two to three thousand miles, most of them have been affected by rice seedlings.
Not only is Hou Mubai himself a murderous devil, but the father behind him, the Panlong Mountain City Lord, is probably even more of a devil among devils.
Without his own father's instructions, Hou Mubai wouldn't be so unscrupulous in massacring the city, right? He is not yet invincible in the world.
As for the Panlong Mountain gathering place that Zhao Guohai is familiar with, its strength may not be what it used to be.
The population gathered there is probably far more than the 200,000 people known many years ago, and is probably 300,000, or even 400,000...
And those who can still stay in Panlong's gathering place are probably used to enjoying the huge dividends brought by robbery. What better way to survive than robbery?
This is a huge cancer!
As long as this cancer exists for a day, there will never be peace or security within a thousand miles!
————————
Liu Shiba looked into the distance and thought quietly.
At this time, Solanta and Wang Sihan also climbed up the city wall and stood next to him, while Lao Hei ran far away around the city wall, as if planning to circle around the city wall.
"Boss!"
Solanta gave a low cry.
Liu Shiba came back from his trance and responded:
"Hmm? How's the situation?"
Solanta nodded and said:
"I've seen it, and there's no sign of the zombies entering the city at all. Maybe they found that the city was deserted, and the zombies were driven near the city wall. They had no more power, so they turned towards the Wang family."
Liu Shiba nodded and said:
“It’s pretty much what I thought, there must be prerequisites to drive zombies away from the city and rob it.
That is the front, and there must be something that the zombies are interested in. This guide can only guide them in the direction they are going, but it cannot drive them to bite people.
It is an unrealistic idea to drive zombies to bite people when there is no one to bite them."
Wang Sihan's eyes bulged when he heard this, and couldn't help but interject:
"Could it be said that those thirteen people in the gathering place who were destroyed by zombies all died in vain?"
Solanta said in a deep voice:
"According to the analysis I have observed, it is very likely that their death was in vain, if they had abandoned the city wall and everything like they did in the Dingbian gathering place from the beginning.
If you only take weapons and rations to escape, it is very likely that no one will die. No matter how fast the zombies move, except for a very few high-level zombies, most of them will not be able to run fast."
Liu Shiba shook his head and said:
"It's not absolute, because most of them attacked late at night, and many city gathering places were captured at night.
After discovering that he was surrounded by a wave of zombies, he couldn't escape even if he wanted to, and could only coexist and die with the city.
Another factor is people's love for home. After staying in a place for a long time, you will have a house to live in, a business, and even power.
A person with power can only talk about power if he controls most of the population within the city walls.
If a wave of corpses comes and the person in power lets everyone escape to escape, then the power he possesses will be worthless."
Wang Sihan understood now and recalled:
"No wonder! Commander Zhao's first reaction when he learned that a million corpses were coming was not to evacuate the entire city, but to mobilize the entire city's strength to resist..."
Liu Shiba nodded and said:
"Not only Commander Zhao, but also the thirteen gathering places that were destroyed. The first reaction of the people in power in each gathering place was to call everyone to resist with all their strength, so they perished..."
Solanta smiled at this time and said:
"Hahaha! And this Dingbian gathering place is probably the only one Hou Mubai has ever seen who ran away without fighting.
No one resisted, no one fired a shot, so he was left with an empty city, and the heavy equipment in the city could only be seen but not moved away. It was really annoying..."
Liu Shiba also thought of the situation in the early morning of that day. The night was dark and windy, the fog was thick, and the cold was biting. Mr. Hou worked hard all the way, leading millions of zombies to attack the city and find stakes over a long distance...
Mr. Hou did not expect that when he arrived, the zombies were too lazy to move. The city was completely dark, and it was quiet outside the city. Not to mention living people, not even a living mouse could be seen...
Wang Sihan also thought of this funny scene, but she said worriedly:
"The lunatic was so furious that he would definitely not be willing to lead a wave of millions of corpses to the Wang family's place.
He must have thought that everyone in the Dingbian gathering area had fled there, so he was so angry that he had to catch up to see what happened.
You said that zombies are not driven to bite things that don't exist. I believe that.
But don’t forget, there must be people on the top of the Wang family’s mountain. There are nearly 13,000 people including the Wang family, which is enough to attract those zombies to attack madly.”
Liu Shiba and Solanta looked at each other, and finally Solanta smiled bitterly and said:
"This is what we meant when we asked you just now how many bullet reserves the Wang family has."
Wang Sihan stared at her beautiful eyes and said angrily:
"What do you mean? Explain clearly?"
Liu Shiba waved his hand and said:
"It's nothing! I just estimated that with millions of ammunition reserves, if we resist with all our strength on the top of the mountain, how long can we last at most?
The longer the mountaintop side holds out, the more the remaining four people will be attracted to this side. They will return here one by one to check the situation, and finally it will be Hou Mubai's turn..."
Speaking of this, Liu Shiba raised his watch-like guide and said:
"They must be reluctant to throw away these things, so as long as Hou Mubai brings Biao back here, the siege of the corpse tide will naturally be lifted."
Wang Sihan bulged his eyes and said:
"Don't tell me, are you waiting again?"
Liu Shiba nodded carefully and said:
"That's right! My solution is to wait, especially to wait for Mu Bai. Only in the wasteland area of Dingbian gathering place can we be sure to kill him."
At this time, Solanta looked far away, turned to Liu Shiba and said:
"Zhao Guohai brought his people back, and the transportation team's dozens of large trucks also all drove back."
Liu Shiba's eyes turned cold and he immediately said to Solanta:
"Go quickly, tell the convoy not to enter the city, turn around at the city gate, make a mock-up of the city, leave 3,000 people behind, and then all the rest will hide in the city and wait.
Then you yourself, find a shelter outside the city, wait for the man in green outside to come and shoot him down, no matter whether you live or die..."
Solanta smiled far away and said:
"Selling ointment! This is what I like..."
