End of the World
Chapter 90: Breaking into the Interior
Under the city wall, the logistics troops delivered the last batch of air-dropped white phosphorus bombs. After tonight, there would be no incendiary bombs available in the shelter.
It would be more effective if there was a suitable platform that could carry white phosphorus bombs. It is really a waste to use such an old thing as a catapult.
The time soon came to past nine o'clock in the evening. According to convention, the corpse moths should be coming soon at this time, but the sky was silent, without any movement. The searchlight shone back and forth at the sky, and the observer looked at it nervously. If he saw the corpse moths, he would press the alarm immediately.
The corpse moths did not appear, and the soldiers on the city wall breathed a sigh of relief and concentrated on shooting the zombies under the city wall. Without the threat from the sky, it was quite easy to deal with ordinary zombies by relying on fortifications. They only relied on their thousands of times more numbers and would be smashed to pieces in front of the fortifications.
The logistics personnel recruited a group of ordinary people to transport ammunition to the city walls, and they traveled back and forth between various ammunition points.
The largest consumption in defense is machine gun bullets, followed by various small and medium caliber artillery shells. Rifle ammunition consumes the least. After all, rifles can only effectively kill zombies within three or four hundred meters, and rifles are not suitable for large-scale defensive operations.
Each ammunition point is filled with various types of ammunition, which will be quickly consumed when the battle is intense, so the logistics will be piled up desperately when the battle slows down.
In the shelter warehouse, more than 10,000 people were crowded together. The warehouse exhaust fans were desperately replacing the air inside and outside, but the air was still turbid and filled with various odors.
People have long been accustomed to these smells. Except for the patrolling soldiers passing by from time to time, few people are walking around. Everyone sits on the ground. Everyone is listless and has long been numb to the rumbling of artillery outside.
In the warehouse on the other side, there are only more than a thousand people, so the space seems more empty. All those here are powerful nobles. Before the doomsday, they possessed billions of wealth and were extremely powerful. After the doomsday, they are even more powerful than others. Without legal constraints, they are even more wanton and absorb nutrients by riding on everyone's heads.
While ordinary people are still worrying about having enough to eat, they are thinking about having fun and spending money extravagantly. When cannons roar outside and soldiers are fighting bloody battles, they complain that the noise is too loud and disturbs their rest. In short, they think that everyone should sacrifice for them.
"Miss Xu, would you please do me a favor?" A fat man with a greasy hair stretched out his hand to invite a beautiful woman.
Miss Xu glanced at the fat man with disgust in her eyes, but she didn't show it. Miss Xu's name was Xu Yunyun. Before the end of the world, she was an internationally famous superstar. She had met countless young talents, and this fat man was obviously not to her liking.
Seeing that Xu Yunyun didn't take it, the greasy-haired fat man withdrew his hand, turned around and sneered, "Ha, isn't it just a relationship? One day, I will make this damn bitch get under my arm obediently."
It wasn't just the fat guy with the greasy hair who coveted Xu Yunyun's beauty. Almost every man on the field had evil thoughts. However, Xu Yunyun had some connections in the Government Affairs Department and the military, so she was not just a female star, otherwise a group of hungry wolves would have been unable to restrain themselves long ago.
"When can we get out!" Xu Yunyun was already fed up with waiting, and her mood was getting worse and worse.
"Xiao Yun, stay calm, the army is doing their best!" Xu Yunyun's agent is a woman in her forties named Liao Mei.
"It's really useless. It's been so long!" Xu Yunyun muttered in dissatisfaction.
"The army has its own difficulties too!" Liao Mei could only comfort Xu Yunyun.
"Help, let me go!"
A sudden cry for help sounded in the warehouse, attracting everyone's attention. It turned out that two men could not bear the loneliness and sneaked into the civilian warehouse and snatched a beautiful girl back.
Many people just took a look and ignored the girl's cry for help. This is a very normal thing. The rich people just think it is human nature. Everyone has physiological needs.
A few men stepped forward not to stop it, but to join the ranks of the beasts.
"Brother, can you lend it to us for fun?"
The two men looked at each other and raised a finger: "This price!"
"Okay, let's be friends!" The men handed over a pack of cigarettes.
The girl despaired instantly. She was only worth a pack of cigarettes. She wanted to struggle but was too weak to do anything. She could only watch as several men dragged her into the room. The men threw her onto the bed and ripped her clothes off.
"All men deserve to die!" Xu Yunyun said. She had no intention of taking action, as the girl had nothing to do with her.
The man finished quickly and went out to call his companions. His companions said he was efficient. They waited for two minutes before the two men ran out. Their companions were stunned, thinking that this was a bit too fast. They all smiled in a way that only men could understand.
The second man's face flushed, and he pointed inside in panic: "She's not clean, she has a rash on her body!"
Several people looked dazed. Rash? Then they looked at the first man. The first man was shocked. Isn't the rash a symptom of the plague? It's over!
"Are you... sure?" The man spoke with a trembling voice. He was still young and he didn't want to die!
"If you don't believe me, go and see for yourself!"
"Forget it, let's call a doctor!" The first man ran out without even putting on his clothes, and the others scattered like birds and beasts. It was so damn unlucky.
Ten minutes later, the doctor arrived and carried the poor girl away. Except for the doctor, no one present felt sorry.
After examining the girl, the doctor found that it was not a rash, but just redness of the skin due to being squeezed. The girl was not infected with the plague, but her spirit was severely traumatized. I hope she can think more positively.
But the man said he might have been infected with the plague, so the doctor immediately took him to an isolation ward for observation, and then he really got the plague.
By the early hours of the morning, everyone was exhausted, but the corpse moth had not appeared yet. No one knew whether it had gone on vacation or had forgotten about it.
The logistics department has delivered a lot of ammunition, enough to sustain the troops for a while, so they can rest first.
"Tom!"
The rhythmic firing of the mortars and the repetitive movements made people very tired and their joints ached.
When everyone relaxed, the air raid alarm suddenly sounded.
“Woo~ woo~”
Everyone was shocked and looked up at the night sky, but it was empty. Not to mention corpse moths, there were not even mosquitoes.
"Is the sentry asleep? Where are the bugs?" Everyone turned around and looked at the observer on the high tower. Isn't this entertaining?
The observer was also confused, because he was not the one who sounded the alarm!
"False alarm!" Not seeing the corpse moths, commanders at all levels signaled to ignore it and continue attacking the zombies on the ground.
Soon, loud gunshots were heard in the shelter. Everyone turned around and saw insect shadows flying all over the sky. Oh no, the corpse moths had actually attacked the inside, and they might have come from other directions.
The artillery positions were harassed by corpse moths and the shelling stopped. Without artillery support, the pressure on the city walls increased.
"Come back for support, quickly!" The main force was basically at the west wall, and the commander immediately responded by sending out the reserve troops.
Most of the people had been evacuated in the early stages, so the corpse moths did not cause many civilian casualties.
The guys isolated in the tent area have learned their lesson. When the corpse moths come over, they all tacitly stop fighting and hide themselves.
The sky in the direction of the military camp was full of corpse moths and gunshots were heard one after another. He Yuxin felt that this might be an opportunity.
"Will it be too risky?"
When He Yuxin expressed her thoughts, everyone frowned slightly.
"There is definitely danger, but we have no other choice. The only way to save people is to break into the prison!" He Yuxin tried her best to persuade everyone. If everyone opposed it, she would go alone. She knew very well that this might be the last chance. The longer Wu Bin stayed in there, the more danger he would be in.
Everyone was silent. The chaos caused by the corpse moths was the best opportunity to get Wu Bin and Dafeng out, but the military camp was a place with tight security.
"I'm not objecting. Suppose we really rescue the people, what should we do next? How can we avoid the army's pursuit?" Zhao Bofeng spoke. He was older and more stable.
The others also nodded. The real trouble would come afterwards. As long as Wu Bin and the others were still in the shelter, it would be difficult to hide.
"Okay, I understand!" He Yuxin was a little disappointed. She was well aware of everyone's concerns, but she was more worried about Wu Bin.
He Yuxin returned to the RV, covered her head and cried. Fang Xiaoyun followed her in and touched He Yuxin's head.
"Yuxin, no matter what others think, I will support you!"
"Really?" He Yuxin looked up and looked at Fang Xiaoyun.
"Sometimes people have to try harder and have faith in their hearts. Only by doing it can you know what is right and what is wrong. Follow your heart!" Fang Xiaoyun knew that He Yuxin would not give up easily, so she simply supported her.
"Thank you, Sister Yun!" He Yuxin hugged Fang Xiaoyun and burst into tears. She wanted to release all the depression that she had been holding back for so many days. What she wanted was understanding and support.
"Have you decided yet?"
"Yes! I won't implicate anyone!" He Yuxin nodded firmly.
"Was what I said just now a bit too much!" Zhao Bofeng thought of He Yuxin's disappointed expression in Qiao Xinghua's RV.
"She will understand. We should indeed consider her proposal carefully!" Qiao Xinghua said in a deep voice.
"Then what should we do...?" Before Li Xun could finish his words, the sound of a car was heard outside.
He Yuxin started the vehicle, turned the steering wheel with one hand, stepped on the accelerator to the bottom, and drove the MAN eight-wheel drive RV towards the isolation wall.
"Yuxin!"
Everyone ran out of the car and only saw the taillights of the car going away.
"Get in the car quickly, zombies are coming!" The remaining people returned to the car.
"Yuxin, calm down first. We didn't say we won't save you!" Qiao Xinghua called on the intercom.
On the other side, He Yuxin directly turned off the power of the walkie-talkie.
"Uncle Zhao, let's drive and catch up!" Qiao Xinghua couldn't contact He Yuxin.
"Sister Yuxin is too anxious!" Lu Qiqi sat in her seat and fastened her seat belt.
"Maybe she is disappointed in us!" Meng Zihan can understand He Yuxin. Qiao Xinghua is back, but Wu Bin is still locked up. How can she not be anxious?
The two RVs started and followed the traces of the car in front, but He Yuxin was driving so fast that they could no longer see the taillights of the car in front.
