End of the World
Chapter 46 Before Action
The three men were not fools and knew what this meant. The fact that the new regiment was leading the operation proved that the shelter's top brass were probably recruiting soldiers to form a cannon fodder force. The veteran troops suffered heavy losses when they took the lead, let alone the new recruits.
"How can this be? It's so unfair!" Qiao Xinghua suddenly felt extremely resistant to being a soldier. He could go to the battlefield, where life and death were left to fate, but being cannon fodder was extremely despicable. Who would want to commit suicide?
The same was true for Wu Bin and Dafeng. They were very upset when they learned that they might be cannon fodder. It turned out that where there are classes there is exploitation.
"Don't tell anyone else, otherwise no one can bear the consequences!" Chen Guangjun warned. Zhu Zhenguo was taking a huge risk by asking him to tell Wu Bin.
The three of them nodded slowly, knowing clearly what was important and what was not. They could not implicate Lao Zhu in this matter. The three of them secretly decided in their hearts that if the situation was not right, they would leave immediately, no matter what the mission was. If they were unkind, they should not blame themselves for being unjust.
Chen Guangjun saw what the three were thinking and sighed. People are selfish, but this selfishness cannot be blamed. They all live for the people they love most. Besides, Chen Guangjun also despised the actions of the top leaders. They did not take the lives of ordinary people seriously and were doomed to end up in a dead end.
Chen Guangjun had limited time, so he simply said a few words and left. He couldn’t finish talking about his own affairs in a short time, so he would talk about it later!
The three of them returned to the tent with heavy hearts, and the others thought that they were criticized by White!
"You three come here!" Before Wu Bin and the other two could even sit down, White walked into the tent.
The three of them were depressed. What else did White have to do? Or did he know something?
White led the three people into his special tent and said directly to Dafeng: "How is your artillery skill?"
"?" Dafeng was confused. What did that mean? Even Wu Bin and Qiao Xinghua were stunned. Could it be that White had some special hobby? The two thought evilly.
When White saw the expressions of Wu Bin and Qiao Xinghua, he knew that the two of them had wrong ideas. He coughed lightly and said, "I want to form a firepower team. The three of you are in the same group. The number is just right!"
So that's how it is. Dafeng didn't know why White asked him and turned his eyes to Wu Bin.
Wu Bin was helpless, he was not the boss here, and Dafeng didn't care what he did.
"I will resolutely obey the organization's arrangements!" Wu Bin said loudly. He didn't think the three had a chance to choose. Hesitation would only make White unhappy. Dafeng and Qiao Xinghua reacted and expressed their obedience.
White took a deep look at Wu Bin and found that he had a good understanding. Not to mention that it was quite to his liking.
"Okay! Then I'll assign you to the rocket launcher group. Follow me!" White brought the three people to the equipment department and distributed new heavy equipment.
"This is your new equipment. Take it with you during training!" White opened three boxes. Inside the boxes lay a rocket launcher. The other two boxes were filled with rockets.
The three tried it and found the equipment was quite heavy, especially for Wu Bin and Qiao Xinghua, who could hardly bear the weight of the ammunition box.
White emphasized to the two men that the ammunition must be handled with care. For safety reasons, heavier iron blocks would be placed in the box to train the two men during training.
When they returned to the tent, the others looked at the three people in surprise. They were actually going to get new equipment. Everyone was a little envious. White followed and selected a dozen other people to go out, probably to choose equipment.
At first, the people who received the new equipment were very happy, but they couldn't smile during the afternoon training. It was extremely difficult to train with such a heavy thing on their shoulders. Even Dafeng, who was very comfortable with training, couldn't stand it. The rocket launcher was impressive, but it was too heavy.
Wu Bin and Qiao Xinghua were even worse off. An accident happened during training and the box fell to the ground, with the iron blocks inside falling out. White was so angry that he pointed at the two men's noses and cursed. If it had been a real fight, the two of them would have been wiped out long ago.
The rest of the heavy equipment groups were not much stronger. Someone suggested that the firepower group could not use their guns. White said that in principle he had no objection if the equipment was too heavy. Some people from the firepower group handed in their guns on the spot. Wu Bin and the other two just watched from afar, silently carried their equipment and gritted their teeth to persevere. Handing in their guns and going outside was seeking death. Those guys who handed in their guns obviously had never experienced the cruelty of the outside world and thought they were safe following the army.
White watched as almost all the fire groups surrendered their guns and shook his head slightly. They were still too young, and this was equivalent to tying their lives to others.
The training is still going on. As the days go by, the instructors of the new regiment become more and more serious. As the day of action approaches, almost everyone can feel the tense atmosphere before the war.
The shelter has made full preparations for the operation, especially the artillery and the Army Aviation Regiment. This operation will rely heavily on these two arms. According to the plan, the Army Aviation helicopter will conduct preliminary reconnaissance before the operation begins. The artillery will bombard the target area based on the reconnaissance report to eliminate the zombies gathered near the target.
After half a month of training, the four newly formed regiments regrouped and gathered together again. The officer who gave the speech on the first day gave a speech. However, their ranks and insignia could not be clearly seen due to the distance.
"I'm glad that all of you have basically met our training standards." The officer began by encouraging everyone.
"But for us, the battle has just begun. On the first day, your battalion commander told you that you will participate in an important operation, so I hope that everyone can exert 120% of their combat effectiveness, complete the mission, and come back alive!" The officer saluted everyone solemnly.
All the members of the four new regiments saluted back. Half a month's training seemed to have given them a solemn and murderous aura.
After the summary meeting, the new group members have a day off to go back and see their families. The shelter is intended to let them relax and relieve the stress before the action.
After the meeting, Wu Bin and the other two couldn't wait to return to the RV camp. No one expected that the three would come back at this time, and they were overjoyed, especially He Yuxin and Meng Zihan, who were almost falling in love with each other.
Looking at the two couples hugging each other, Dafeng felt a little embarrassed, and the atmosphere was eased only when other people came over to express their condolences.
"You look so smart in your military uniform!" He Yuxin helped Wu Bin tidy up his clothes. Half a month is not a long time, but it made Wu Bin's figure more upright. The military camp is really a place that changes people.
Wu Bin smiled and didn't want to talk more about the military camp. He asked, "Has anyone come to cause trouble again during this period of time?"
"No, after the last turmoil, the shelter has strengthened its security management!"
"That's good!" Wu Bin was relieved. What he was most worried about in the military camp was that there would be someone like Brother Guang coming to blackmail him again.
The three of them tacitly agreed not to say a word about participating in the action. In fact, they didn't know what the action was, and they were the last to know as the executing unit.
While the new regiment members were leaving the barracks to go home to visit, the artillery position was bustling with activity. Ammunition trucks were pulling shells into the position, logistics personnel were unloading the shells from the trucks and carrying them to the cannons, and gunners were checking the cannons and preparing for firing.
When the reconnaissance intelligence from the Army Aviation helicopter arrived, the gunner adjusted the firing angle of the artillery, fed the shells into the barrel, closed the bolt, and everything was ready.
"All guns ready, set, fire!" The flag bearer received the instructions, shouted loudly, and waved the red flag in his hand suddenly.
"Boom boom boom!" The artillery roared, and high-explosive ammunition was ejected from the muzzle at high speed, smashing hard into the target area.
"Hey~~"
There was a sound of breaking wind in the sky. The zombies in the target area looked up in shock, their white pupils filled with confusion. They had no memory of what that sound was.
"Boom!" The zombies didn't react until the shells landed. This was too weird for them.
The 155 high-explosive bomb is very powerful. With one shot, all zombies within a five-meter radius will be torn apart, and the shrapnel will cause damage to zombies farther away.
The Army Aviation helicopters in the sky are observing the effects of the bombardment and feeding the results back to the artillery units. The helicopter pilots must not only observe the zombies, but also pay attention to the corpse moths that pose a threat to the helicopters. Shelters for these mutant insects have been allocated, and experts have been recruited to conduct research. I believe there will be results soon.
The artillery fire on the position rumbled, dust filled the air, and the 155mm howitzers were firing shells into the zombie swarm at a steady rate. The shelter was equipped with enough ammunition for each artillery piece, which could last for several hours at the current firing rate.
The people who heard the gunfire were full of confusion. Could it be that another group of zombies was attacking the shelter? No, why didn't the shelter sound the alarm?
"Why are the artillery firing at this time?" At the RV camp, everyone heard the familiar sound of artillery and was as confused as everyone else.
Wu Bin and the other two remained silent. They certainly knew why the artillery fired. It would be their turn after the bombardment ended. Although they didn't know the specific target of the action yet, the fact that the shelter used artillery to continuously bombard the target location proved that there were a lot of zombies at the target location. They hoped that the bombardment could eliminate most of the zombies.
"Never mind, let's eat first. The alarm in the shelter isn't going off anyway!" Dafeng covered it up very well as usual, and even Wu Bin almost believed his words.
"Yes, yes, I haven't eaten at home for a long time!" Qiao Xinghua agreed. It was obvious that the expedition had to be kept secret.
"Well! Eat more!" He Yuxin was very happy and she took the initiative to help Wu Bin pick up some food.
Wu Bin smiled, put aside all other worries and enjoyed this moment. Perhaps there would be no chance in the future. Thinking of his promise to He Yuxin, he felt very heavy. What if she couldn't come back?
The same is true for Qiao Xinghua. He can't let go of Meng Zihan the most. The two have been in love for more than three years. That sincere emotion cannot be expressed in words. For the two of them, no one can separate them. Qiao Xinghua dare not imagine what will happen if he can't come back to Meng Zihan? Will she go crazy? But now he dare not tell the truth, so he can only lie cruelly.
Dafeng is fine. Unlike Wu Bin and Qiao Xinghua, he doesn't have anyone he can't let go of, so he feels at ease. The only thing that makes him unhappy is that he feels like he's being used as a gun.
The three of them quietly enjoyed the silence for a few hours until it was time to return to the team. The three of them hid very well and did not leak any information. Everyone saw them off. They didn't know that this time they were going back to carry out a life-threatening mission.
