There is nothing more pressing than time, and it is a matter of making a choice between advancement and retreat when the lives of many people are at stake.
Lao Xu is in a very difficult situation. No matter whether he is advancing or retreating, he is involved in the current situation.
At this moment, Huabiao behind him issued a warning: "100 meters ahead, be careful to engage the enemy."
After the words fell, Lao Xu gathered his thoughts and raised his eyebrows. Sure enough, there were two shaking figures a hundred meters away.
Although there were only two, he could not be careless at all. Huo Yuankai drew out the Tang Dao from his back with his backhand and prepared a splitting stance.
As everyone got closer to the two zombies, the number of black shadows suddenly increased, from two to four, then seven, and finally to more than ten.
There is no doubt that this is a small refugee group.
"Attention, everyone! Don't mess up the formation! Each one searches for the enemy! Xiao Hu, you are on alert!"
"clear!"
The tactical system has been practiced dozens of times in actual combat. No need for Lao Xu to talk nonsense, everyone drew their weapons and prepared to fight.
Hu Xiaodong fully drew the bowstring and shot an arrow at the nearest zombie.
The arrow stably penetrated the animal's skull. After hunting for so long, Hu Xiaodong's archery skills became more and more perfect.
The uncomfortable reaction caused by shooting the human body has long been eliminated. Archery is a sport that requires no distracting thoughts. Without other thoughts, it is naturally accurate.
After the leading zombie was knocked down, the remaining zombies were all attracted to the scene and immediately became excited when they looked up.
You can imagine the excitement of encountering a feast of plump and fresh human meat on such a lonely railway line.
The corpses immediately quickened their pace, swaying unsteadily and excitedly rushing toward the survivors.
Hu Xiaodong killed him with one blow. He immediately put on his bow and pulled the string. When the string sounded behind him, another one fell down.
Relying on his long-range sniping, when the zombies rushed into the range, seven or eighty-eight had been killed, and only eight or nine were left in the team of ten people.
At close range, Hu Xiaodong's mission was completed. He consciously retreated to the back of the formation and began to guard the surroundings in case beasts such as runners and jumpers suddenly appeared in other places.
As for the remaining zombies, other team members will have to deal with them.
Huo Yuankai took the lead, and he performed superbly with the Tang Dao in his hand. Even the simplest stabbing, cutting and other movements all contained strength, and the murderous zombies were like cutting into tofu.
Basically, as long as the guards are available, he will be a human flesh-cutting machine among the zombies. With his skillful sword skills and the excellent edge of the Tang Dao, no zombies can get into him.
In the blink of an eye, three zombies fell to the ground one after another.
Immediately afterwards, Wei Dazhuang, Wang Qiang, Hua Biao, and Lao Xu entered the battle one after another. After a battle, this small zombie team that had been wandering for unknown months returned to where they should go.
Standing in the middle of the corpse, Huo Yuankai shook off the blood on the blade of Tang's sword. Zombie corpses with mutilated limbs and severed brains lay scattered around his body.
Hu Xiaodong stepped forward and quickly checked the corpse's clothes and put all the available supplies into his bag. This was something he didn't even have to think about in the past.
But now and then, the survivors, who were looking for no supply points, could only use every opportunity to collect supplies, especially from disgusting zombies.
Taking advantage of the team members' opportunity to search him, Lao Xu walked to the relatively high railway line.
The sudden appearance of this group of zombies caught his attention. You must know that he encountered many similar situations along the way.
But this is the first time such a large group of zombies has gathered together.
This could not help but rekindle his almost extinguished hope.
Maybe there is a team nearby looking for a target!
With expectations, Lao Xu moved the telescope into the distance, and soon he discovered something strange on the horizon.
He simply adjusted the focal length, and then a slight arc gradually appeared on his solemn face.
After packing up his things, Hua Biao jumped onto the railway line in the center of the road: "Company Commander, the investigation has been completed and you can leave."
no answer.
When Hua Biao saw this, he was a little curious. He glanced at Lao Xu and saw a smile on his lips.
As a good brother who lives and fights with Xu Renjie, Hua Biao is very familiar with some of Xu's tiny actions.
He knew that Lao Xu was usually stern, especially in urgent battles.
He usually has a serious look on his face, but if he smiles during this period, it will definitely be a huge turn in the war situation, and it will be beneficial to his side.
Until now... Thinking of a certain possibility, Hua Biao suppressed his excitement and asked: "Company Commander, have you discovered anything?"
Yes! Lao Xu discovered something.
Putting down the telescope, Lao Xu waved his hand to Hua Biao to follow him.
After returning to the team, the remaining team members also heard Huabiao's question, and they all showed suspicious expressions.
Lao Xu didn't waste any time and went straight to the point and said to everyone: "Through the observation just now, I found some scattered packages at the end of the horizon ahead. If the judgment is correct, we are not far from the target location."
In fact, there was one thing that Lao Xu didn't say, which was that the package appeared in the small group of zombies he had just killed, which showed that his choice of heading west was right.
Because if the destination is in the east, the animals should not move from west to east, but in the opposite direction.
After hearing what Lao Xu said, all the team members looked obviously happy.
This is absolutely exciting news, and it is equivalent to giving a free injection to the team members who have been hiking for more than 2 hours.
"Then don't say anything, let's get on the road quickly!"
With hope, the tired body began to gain momentum. The movement speed of the survivor collection team increased significantly. Everyone was high in fighting spirit, as if they were right in front of the supplies distribution center.
But this is not the case, their journey is still not much different from before.
Still haven't encountered any stop, stationed train.
But the confidence of the team members is increasing.
Why, you ask? Because I didn’t encounter any promising goals along the way.
The number and frequency of zombie encounters continues to increase.
What does this mean? It means that there must be an area where humans gather around here, at least in the past. Otherwise, how could there be so many zombies in this wilderness?
As far as the current railway line is concerned, so many humans can be gathered to mutate. Apart from the stops along the railway line, the only thing left is the train itself.
Either way, these two means supply places for the survivors.
So you say the survivor team members can not be excited and have motivation?
Still swinging the knife to shake off the blood on the blade, the survivor's food search team had just finished killing another small group of enemies.
This is the fourth wave of zombies they have exterminated since they discovered the first zombie team of more than ten people.
Hua Biao and others were still cleaning the battlefield. It was not easy to go out and they didn't want to miss any opportunity to search for supplies.
At this moment, Wang Qiang from the team suddenly greeted in a deep voice: "Hey, everyone, come here."
When everyone heard this, they all looked sideways, and then they all moved towards Wang Qiang. (To be continued.)
