chapter 11 escape

Come on, get on, get on, get on, get on, get on.

Lei Cheng felt that the blood in his body was about to boil. The pleasure brought by the instant increase in speed made him as excited as if he had smoked marijuana. What's more, he was desperate and gambling. If he was not careful, he would end up with a car destroyed and a person killed.

The roaring off-road vehicle was close to the intersection at a terrible speed, and the bloody scene also came into the eyes of the passengers. Lei Cheng guessed that the dry corpses lying across the road were actually monsters that feed on people. Like the skeletons he had encountered, these zombies were also holding shiny long swords in their hands and slashing at the crowds that were scattering everywhere.

Perhaps the sudden appearance of the car gave the desperate people a glimmer of hope. Several men who were slamming the board machine at the monster ran to the middle of the road in surprise, waved their hands desperately towards the speeding off-road vehicle, and shouted loudly for help. However, what puzzled them was that the car had no intention of slowing down at all, but instead increased its horsepower and rushed towards it.

"court death!"

A cold grin flashed across Lei Cheng's face, and the accelerator under his feet seemed to be stuck at the bottom. With a muffled "bang", the man blocking the road seemed to hit the bumper in front of the car. Without even having time to hum, he flew out of the middle of the road and collapsed on the roadside like mud.

Press the button of the wiper and sweep the blood and flesh in front of the car window to the side. Lei Cheng drove over the body of the man blocking the road and rushed towards the narrow exit not far away.

Perhaps the man's experience gave everyone a warning, and they avoided the crazy off-road vehicle, cursed and cried in the most vicious language, retreated towards their own way. At this time, how much they wished they could be one of the passengers in that car. Why is it so unfair that they actually let those people live and they have to die?

Several "corpses" holding long swords rushed forward and cut them down suddenly at the front of the car. However, the huge inertia brought by the extremely fast body pulled them under the wheels. After a violent crush, Lei Cheng was very happy to hear the sound of shattering under the car.

The intersection is right in front.

At this moment, Lei Cheng suddenly saw that a few zombies were desperately pushing down a miniature car with only half of the remaining one. Looking at the crumbling momentum, at most, the road leading out of the city would be completely closed in just a few seconds.

The accelerator has reached its maximum, and the number on the speedometer has reached its limit. The only thing that can be done now is praying...

"boom--"

The moment the miniature car fell, the off-road vehicle rushed out of the road entrance. It was only the fallen vehicle and slightly hit its tail, leaving a shallow mark.

"I finally escaped."

Listening to the screams coming from behind, Lei Cheng felt relieved. The feeling of fatigue caused by the instant relaxation from the nervous state made him tremble all over, and the accelerator under his feet slowly relaxed. After about five or six kilometers after rushing out of the intersection, the crazy vehicle finally stopped slowly on the side of the road.

"I can't save them. If we don't do this, we will all die."

Facing the two old men who gradually calmed down from their excitement, Lei Cheng only felt that he should explain it. But he also knew clearly that doing so was of no use at all.

"I understand!" The old man unscrewed the kettle and took a sip, saying with a lonely expression: "I am a soldier and I have participated in the self-defense counterattack against the American Federation decades ago. At that time, I would make a shot on their chests for comrades who were seriously injured on the line of fire but could not be transported..."

The sunset is as red as blood...

When Lei Cheng drove to the southern base, it was noon the next day.

Several armored vehicles were waiting for the battle to block the middle of the intersection, and the large-caliber machine guns set up on the roof pointed tightly at the direction of their origin. In the temporary ring fortifications made of sandbags and concrete slabs, there were 75mm straight-no-recoil-free direct aiming guns. The monster corpses gathered around the base like hills, which already illustrate the heavy casualties they suffered in it.

"It's rare that you can escape from Kunming City."

An officer carrying the major badge on his shoulders received them. As usual, this type of business was usually received by ordinary soldiers. However, when the old man took out a small red notebook with a five-pointed star from his chest and handed it over, everything changed.

Lei Cheng never dreamed that the old man who had been regarded as a burden by him and had considered abandoning him in an emergency would be a pair of retired senior officers. He even served as the captain of this defensive force.

"He saved us."

Just such a simple sentence made the soldiers present look at him with admiration. There were probably not many civilians who could be praised by the old man.

"The situation here is very bad." After arranging everyone to sit down, the major said with a serious expression: "Based on the existing fortifications, we have been here for seven months. In order to accommodate as many refugees as possible, we will then transfer them collectively to the garrison of the Forty-first Army in the north, and the upper military personnel will decide whether these civilians will stay or not."

"It is not a solution to defend the enemy." Lei Cheng said slowly: "Almost all the civilians in the city were killed by monsters. When they had nothing to eat, they would definitely focus here. Then..."

"In fact, the monster's large-scale attack on the base has begun last week." The major said calmly: "If the base fortifications were not very strong and the defense firepower was extremely strong, it would have been captured here long ago. Despite this, the casualties on the personnel could not be compensated. As a last resort, I could only order all the reserve troops in the surrounding areas of Kunming to gather here. But I didn't expect that the reserve armed personnel who could receive orders and execute smoothly were less than 10% of the estimated number."

Lei Cheng didn't say anything, nor did he express any opinions on what the major said. He knew that if it were not for the old man's special identity, as a civilian, he would not be qualified to know these things at all. However, even if he knew all the situations and secrets, he would not be able to change anything. When facing thousands of tides of monsters, a person's power was really small.

"Do you... still lack people?" After hesitating for a long time, Lei Cheng finally expressed his thoughts: "I want to join the army."

"Join the Army?" The major and the old man were stunned, and Xuan said as usual: "Why?"

"Avenge!" Lei Cheng faintly spitted out these two simple words from his mouth. He could never forget the scene when his friends and lovers were torn to pieces by monsters.

The reasons are sufficient and the requirements are reasonable. In addition, the army is indeed lacking in manpower at present. Half an hour later, a new protective suit embroidered with the rank of corporal was sent to Lei Cheng by the military officer.

"I need an officer." Looking at Lei Cheng who was quite surprised, the major said bluntly: "You have rich practical experience and can lead a small team to fight independently. Don't expect me to assign the most elite soldiers to you. Even if you have saved the life of the old captain, there is no negotiation at all. In the army, prestige and dignity must be obtained by your own strength."

Lei Cheng nodded silently. Although he is already a soldier, he has not received any relevant training from the system. Naturally, he does not know that in such occasions, he must answer loudly and salute his superiors.

Looking at him thinking, the major couldn't help but smile and shook his head. Over the past period of time, a large number of civilian youths have been recruited into the army. In a hurry, there was no time to train these recruits. Even the basic response to the necessary commands was taught by veterans step by step in their spare time in battle. Even some recruits, who were about sixteen or seven years old, did not salute and respectfully call themselves "supervisor" when they first met themselves, but kept talking about "uncle".

There were nine people in the squad belonging to Lei Cheng, which was the standard staffing configuration of the federal army. Looking at the young man in front of him who was about the same age as him and had only a red "V"-shaped private logo on his shoulder, Lei Cheng couldn't help but feel like he wanted to smile bitterly.

The major was right. The ones he assigned to Lei Cheng were indeed all newly enlisted recruits. It can even be said that these people were not considered soldiers at all, at most they were just a group of civilians who could shoot.

Training begins in such a tense and helpless atmosphere. Physical strength, Q&A, salute... Although these things are boring to learn, they are the only recognized standards in the army.

Due to the limitations of venue and time, the training subjects of the recruits are certainly impossible to complete according to normal requirements. Despite this, the high-intensity physical exhaustion also makes these young people who have just joined the army complain. Naturally, Lei Cheng, who has a strong body and endurance, has become a role model in the eyes of the training officers and teammates. However, Lei Cheng did not feel any happiness because of this.

He was used to seeing blood, but he really didn't want to see anyone around him die again.

Although these recruits are not very familiar with them, they are their nominal subordinates and comrades who must cooperate with them. If they are strong, then their chances of survival will naturally be greater in future battles.

Lei Cheng can kill people. This has the clearest answer from his treatment of those who betray him. Similarly, he also cherishes his partners who can live and die with him. However, there are not many people who can be recognized as "partners" by him.

The strength of two people is always stronger than that of one person. Cooperation is the primary condition for the entire team to survive.

Short-term training cannot provide great help in physical strength. Faced with a possible monster attack at any time, Lei Cheng can only use the simplest method to pass on the various experiences he has exchanged with his blood to his teammates one by one. He hopes that this method can be used to allow them to save their life that is useful to them when possible.

Calmness lasted only six days.

The individual spiral aircraft is a low-altitude flight equipment that was installed in the army more than 20 years ago. Using a small hydrogen-oxygen separator as power, this machine can carry objects with a weight of no more than 150 kilograms and fly for five hours at a maximum speed of 120 kilometers per hour. In the two-year-old local war between the Russian Federation and the European Union, this weapon once played a huge advantage. All countries have also led it to be one of the essential products of the army. Even the American Federation Army, which was known as the number one military force at the time, used it to form two entire individual pivotal divisions. However, with the comprehensive improvement of satellite technology, the emergence of a large number of space-making weapons against the ground, and the machinery itself has high noise and low load-bearing factors, this has led to the individual spiral aircraft gradually withdrawing from the list of essential weapons of the military and becoming a waste of dust in the warehouse for a long time.

As a Class B unit, the infantry regiment stationed at the base lacks enough large aerial combat machinery and can only make up for its weakness with this sealed old equipment. Moreover, using it for daily vigilance and reconnaissance is also a very good choice.

"A large number of four-legged monsters were found twelve kilometers south. The number is estimated to be more than one thousand, and they are currently coming towards the base."

This was the information sent back by the air guards a few minutes ago. As orders were issued from the combat command, the entire base was also immersed in a busy and tense atmosphere.

In an irregular rectangular military area, three lines of defense are arranged in staves.

The reinforced concrete walls, which are one meter thick, are re-watered on the original foundation. In between, they are combined with low firepower groups with mixed round shapes. The main weapons are machine guns and small-diameter straight-aising cannons, becoming the primary defense line at the outermost edge of the entire base.

The trenches behind the gun seat lead to dozens of tall warning towers. The condescending firepower is combined with the firepower group below to form a standard line of death. With the large-caliber heavy artillery equipped inside the base, even if the first line of defense is lost, the monsters must suffer heavy casualties under the tower.

As for the final line of defense, it is an assault force composed of four "057" tanks and seventeen armored personnel carriers. This is also all the mobile assault forces in the entire base.

Lei Cheng's team was assigned to a bunker at the forefront. Two "War Fire III" multi-barrel rapid-fire machine guns, and a 75mm recoil-free cannon, which are the most powerful weapons they can rely on.

The recruits who were in battle for the first time all showed an inexplicable excitement and tension. Especially when they saw the row of terrifying monsters running towards the distance, their hands holding the guns tightly began to tremble slightly.

Lei Cheng was holding a G180S sniper rifle equipped with a high-power launcher, carefully aiming at the head of the monster that was gradually growing in the camera, waiting for the most suitable shooting moment to come.

A violent roar came from the rear of the position. After ten seconds, the surging tide ahead suddenly exploded with red and black flowers of death. The hot flames wrapped around the thick smoke, and at the end of the distant horizon, an insurmountable wall of hell was lit.

The huge vibration spread rapidly from the explosion point. Although the concrete layer that built the fortress was quite thick, it was difficult to resist the terrible shaking from the surface of the earth. As the scattered greystone on the top of the fort fell one after another, the people stationed in the bunker also patted each other and took out these little things that were rippling out of their clothes.

"Don't be confused and keep your position."

Before Lei Cheng finished speaking, the sniper rifle bullet in his hand had already escaped from the chamber, and he drilled straight into the opposite side to avoid the attack of artillery fire, and had already swept the head of the strange dark horse in front of the formation. It swayed its body tilted, and finally it still squirted with blood foam and fell heavily between the dust, and could no longer get up.

The effect of artillery fire cover is quite obvious. Large pieces of corpses of monsters that were killed were stacked at the landing point of the shells. The scattered limbs and flowing blood mixed the soil into an inexplicable object. However, the monsters who rushed to the front of the bunker group before they were damaged were also wailed and shawned in the dense rain of machine guns and were beaten to pieces.

How could this be a war? It was simply a massacre without any suspense.

Not to mention a thousand such monsters, even if they are tens of thousands, they will never be able to break through the strong defense line of the base.

Looking at the extremely excited teammates beside him, Lei Cheng felt a very bad premonition in his heart.

Winning is so easy. It's a bit unacceptable.

(The habit of keeping tickets and not throwing them is not good! It is not easy to explain to your wife if you have tickets in your pocket when you go home. Everyone should be kind and throw them to Lao Hei!)
