End of the World

"Brother Bin, I didn't expect there were survivors nearby!" At daybreak, Qiao Xinghua jumped down from the tree. This was the second time he spent the night on the tree. It was really uncomfortable.

"Yeah, now I'm a little curious about why they cleared that section of the road." Wu Bin started a fire, put the lunch box on the table, and used the fire to cook the food inside as breakfast.

"Is it for this?" Dafeng handed the Molotov cocktail to Wu Bin. There might not be much in the fuel tank of an abandoned car on the roadside, but if they were collected together, there would be a lot.

Wu Bin took it, took a look and said, "Maybe it's just one of them, but these people are not stupid, they don't all use gasoline to make Molotov cocktails!"

"Oh?" Qiao Xinghua took the Molotov cocktail from Wu Bin: "They actually added water to it!"

"The two have different densities and cannot be dissolved in each other, and water also gives them fluidity, which means that after they are smashed open, the fire will flow because of the water!" Wu Bin said, seeing the purpose of their adding water.

"What if there is a violent shaking?" Dafeng asked.

"..., maybe it's just like when you make soup, there is oily sheen on the water surface. It's related to the ratio of oil to water. Who knows!" Wu Bin rolled his eyes. Dafeng really likes to nitpick, but he is a weakling in science and can't explain it at all.

"Brothers, there is a fire over there!" Qiao Xinghua stood up and pointed in the direction of the highway.

"It seems that the gang didn't put out the fire!" Wu Bin knew that it was Dafeng who caused the fire. The firewood he threw out ignited the hay.

The three of them ate breakfast while looking in the direction of the fire, as if admiring it. After eating and drinking, it was time to hit the road. Oh no, it should be time to hurry on.

Knowing that there were other survivors near the highway, the three of them deliberately took a detour. Who knows if they will be attacked again? Thinking back to when they were in the factory, everyone hoped to meet other survivors, but now they are deliberately avoiding them. It has to be said that the difference is huge.

"This is……!"

The three abandoned the highway and took the national road instead, where they discovered an incredible scene: the national road was littered with corpses, many of which were broken into pieces and emitted a huge stench.

"The zombies were smashed to pieces by machine guns!" Qiao Xinghua picked up two large bullet casings from the ground. He recognized the shells as being from a 12.7mm machine gun.

"Look, what kind of shell is this?" Dafeng found a bigger one.

"It should be a 30mm machine gun!" Wu Bin said after taking a look.

"30mm machine gun? Does that mean it was left behind by the troops passing through here?" Qiao Xinghua was surprised.

"That should be the case. Let's follow the road and maybe we'll find something." Wu Bin identified the direction and led the way.

Along the way, the three people were frightened by the corpses on both sides. There were so many zombies piled up one after another. No wonder there are so few zombies in this area. They are all here!

After walking for a while, the three made a discovery. They found very obvious track marks on the side of the road. At that time, the tracked vehicle should have driven out of the road. Following the marks, they saw that the tracked vehicle had passed through several buildings directly. So the tracked vehicle should be a tank.

Wu Bin speculated that the tanks suddenly drove off the road because it was blocked. If the road was blocked, the tanks could have easily crashed through it, but they didn't do so, which proved that the vehicles blocking the road ahead were the army's vehicles. The fact that all the vehicles were blocked on the road indicated that the troops retreating from the airport were passing through here, and they must have encountered big trouble ahead.

"Let's go! Let's take a look ahead!" Wu Bin believed that there would be greater discoveries.

The three of them walked along the road for a while and still did not encounter any zombies, but they found two military trucks. One had been completely burned, leaving only the frame, and the other had overturned on the side of the road.

The three men checked the overturned military truck and found nothing except bloodstains in the cab. The cabin was empty.

However, the further they went, the more obvious the signs of fierce fighting became. It seemed that the retreating troops were not having an easy time either, as they engaged in a large-scale battle with zombies.

But Wu Bin was puzzled as to why the large number of zombie troops appeared here and rushed in. Although they were protected by tanks and armored vehicles, there were still many trucks with weak defenses in the convoy.

Sure enough, the more damaged trucks we saw, the more we saw. Most of these trucks were severely damaged, with the truck bodies covered with a layer of red or black that covered the paint. It was obvious how tragic the situation was at that time.

"It seems that the troops were attacked by a group of zombies!" Qiao Xinghua said after seeing the tragedy around him.

"I wonder why the troops are so eager to leave here? Why are they so eager to get to the shelter?" Wu Bin expressed his doubts. What made the troops willing to take such a risk? It was strange to suddenly evacuate the airport.

Qiao Xinghua and Dafeng looked at each other and shook their heads.

"Maybe something happened in the shelter!"

Forget it. I’ll just stop thinking about things I can’t figure out and go back to the shelter to figure them out.

Several gunshots were heard in the distance, and the three immediately hid behind the damaged military vehicle.

"The gunshots came from the front. Are there any army survivors?" Dafeng stretched his head to look in the direction of the sound, but saw nothing.

"No, the sound is like that of a single shot gun, nor like that of a sniper rifle!" Qiao Xinghua denied it. After being in the army for such a long time, he could distinguish the different gunshots.

"Let's go! We'll sneak over there!" Wu Bin didn't care about the gunshots, he would know once he got over there.

The three of them sneaked past the side, luckily there were no zombies here. Of course, the gunshots would attract the zombies over, so the three of them didn't need to worry too much.

There happened to be a small slope on the side of the road, so the three of them lay on it and observed secretly.

"Oh my god! Is that a tank?" Dafeng Rourou checked to make sure she was not seeing things.

That's right. For some reason, a tank crashed into a building and stopped halfway. There were five people next to it who seemed to be refueling the tank. Those five people were not soldiers, but survivors outside.

"Are they working on tanks?" Qiao Xinghua also widened his eyes.

"Brother Bin, shall we do it?" Dafeng was a little excited and wanted to snatch the tank away. It was a tank!

"Are these people the same group that attacked us last night?" Wu Bin asked without making a decision.

"That should be it!" Qiao Xinghua felt that this place was not far from that place, and it was very likely that there was a group of people. There was such a loud noise when the troops passed by, there was no way they didn't know.

"Whoosh!"

As the three were talking, a bullet flew overhead and was spotted.

"Where did the bullets come from?" Wu Bin asked as the three men immediately crouched down.

"It seems to be on the fourth floor of the building to the right of the tank!" At that moment, Qiao Xinghua seemed to see a fire there from the corner of his eye.

Wu Bin immediately took off his helmet and slowly lifted it up with a wooden stick: "Look more carefully!"

"clang!"

As soon as the helmet was raised, a bullet hit it, causing the helmet to fly away and fall off.

"Yes, that's right! It's on the fourth floor on the right, with a sniper rifle!" Qiao Xinghua lay down.

"Dafeng, find a way to use your cannon to bombard him!" Wu Bin shouted. We haven't even decided to launch a sneak attack yet, but you guys took action first. You can't blame us then.

"Okay!" After Qiao Xinghua helped Dafeng load the bullets, he carried the rocket launcher and slid down the small slope, changing positions.

"Let's cover Dafeng!" Wu Bin induced the sniper rifle to fire again and shot towards the fourth floor. The distance was too far and only a few stray bullets hit the wall, posing no threat to the sniper.

But this was enough. Dafeng saw the sniper shoot two more shots at Wu Bin, and appeared on the other side. He aimed the rocket launcher at the fourth-floor window and pressed the fire button without hesitation.

A rocket, trailing fireworks, rushed straight towards the fourth floor. The sniper was a few beats slow to react and only managed to run to the door when the rocket arrived.

"boom!"

With an explosion, the fourth floor was engulfed in flames. The sniper was blown away by the air wave, hit the wall heavily, and fell to the ground, not knowing whether he was dead or alive.

The rocket attack frightened the five people near the tank, and they immediately climbed onto the tank and tried to get inside.

Wu Bin and Qiao Xinghua were well prepared. They stood up and fired in the direction of the tank, successfully hitting two people, but three more people got into the tank.

Wu Bin and Qiao Xinghua immediately ran towards the tank. If they succeeded in launching it, the three of them would be in trouble.

"Da da da!"

After a burst of machine gun fire, a truck from the opposite side heard the news and rushed over. They found a machine gun from somewhere and mounted it on the truck.

Wu Bin and Qiao Xinghua jumped down, rolled a few times, and hid behind an abandoned vehicle. They didn't expect that the opponent had such strong firepower and even had machine guns.

Fortunately, the truck did not discover Dafeng. Dafeng originally wanted to load rockets to blow up the truck, but then he thought that there was no one around the truck, so he could launch a sneak attack to avoid wasting rockets.

Wu Bin was waiting for Dafeng to blow up the truck, but he saw this guy sneaking past the back of the truck. He was really brave.

Qiao Xinghua was also worried about Dafeng. He hoped to hurry up, but a few guys got into the tank.

Dafeng approached the truck and secretly glanced at the car. There were two people, one of whom was operating a machine gun.

"Let you have a taste of this!" Dafeng lit a Molotov cocktail and threw it between the two men.

The Molotov cocktail hit the front fender of the car, and the flammable liquid in it splashed onto the two men. The flames ignited the gasoline, and they were instantly engulfed by the flames. They then rolled around in the car in pain, screaming in agony.

The driver noticed the movement in the car and had a bad feeling. As the car started, a big hand smashed the window glass and grabbed his neck. He was not wearing a seat belt and was pulled out of the window and thrown to the ground. Before he could react, Dafeng hit him with a brick and he became silent.

Dafeng signaled to Wu Bin and Qiao Xinghua, then rushed towards the tank.

As luck would have it, the man who knew how to start the tank was knocked down by a bullet. It was not until Wu Bin and the other two climbed into the tank that they successfully started the tank.

Hearing the roar of the tank engine, the three men quickly grabbed the handles outside the tank.

The tank shifted into reverse gear and the people inside were excited. The tank finally moved, but when they wanted to look for the enemy, they found that the enemy was gone.

One of them was a fool who opened the commander's hatch, and when he came out he saw three men who had already climbed out of the tank, and he shouted.

Dafeng took a brick from the car body, swung it over and knocked him down.

"They're outside!" another person inside shouted.

"What should we do if there are two more people?" asked Qiao Xinghua.

Wu Bin looked at the periscope and said, "Hurry up and cover the glass mirrors with sand bricks so they can't see anything!"

The three men took action immediately, and soon the driver's mirror, commander's mirror, gunner's mirror and other mirrors were all blocked with sand and dust. The two people in the car lost all vision. The tank driver accelerated, trying to get rid of Wu Bin and the other two.
