Doomsday rat

"...Next time, let's talk about business first and then ask questions! Be careful, I may have seen a drone, very small, flying very low, hovering over the edge of the building in the community, from that position, Maybe I can see your shadow behind the window too!"

Hearing this, Hong Tao almost cursed out loud, who are these people, if there is a situation, don't tell me, report it quickly, if you are in a mood to talk nonsense.But now I can't continue to criticize in person, and I have made new discoveries.

"Although I am serving in the ground service, I have also received very professional training!" Randy was not too happy. Hong Tao was sometimes too meticulous, as if he was coaxing a child. Although it was harmless, it was extremely insulting.

"Okay, Comrade Randy, you are the most powerful soldier in the U.S. Army...Come on! Forget about the title, I need you to go to the gate of the courtyard to find a car to ignite, and avoid the area between Building 2 and Building 4 perspective, can it be done?"

Hong Tao himself is well aware of this problem, even if he is old, he can't get over it, he always feels that others are not doing things as safely as he does.But it’s clear to be clear, it’s impossible to admit mistakes, huh, the topic changed when I turned a corner.

Chapter 129 High Tech vs High Tech

"...As ordered..." Randy replied lazily from the earphones.

Hong Tao didn't know how Randy avoided the vision of the drone in the west, and how he set the car on fire. Anyway, after waiting for more than ten minutes, there was smoke slowly rising near the gate of the courtyard. It was relatively light at first, and soon disappeared. It became thicker, and the black smoke rolled and wrapped in dust, circling up like a giant dragon, accompanied by crackling and crackling sounds.

Why would you want to order a car when it's all right?This is called beating the grass to scare the snake.Since there are many big poplar trees planted in the community, which are taller than the buildings, even with a military-grade binoculars, Hong Tao still cannot be sure that the little thing is a drone.

How to do it?Gotta find a way to get it moving.Making noise and luring zombies are not the most ideal methods. If you are too small, you will not attract attention, but if you are too big, you will expose yourself.Only setting the car on fire can attract the attention of the other party without being too suspicious.

Speaking of the day since the outbreak of the disease, various fires and explosions are indispensable in the city every day.So far, there are still two buildings outside Dongzhimen that are billowing with black smoke. They have been burning for at least four or five days, and the bungalow area to the west of the bell tower has been burned to ruins.

Fortunately, there have been no large-scale fires in Houhai, but who can say for sure.On a hot day, if you don’t make sure that the temperature in the car is high, it will catch fire. It is not too difficult to ignite nearby trees and houses.So moving in advance is a wiser choice in every respect.

"Don't poke your head, it's here, it's really a drone..." The little trick worked, and shortly after the smoke column rose into the sky, the suspected drone finally moved, and flew to the place with its probe The top of the tree, looking at this side across half of the community.

"It's the first time I've seen such a small drone, why can't I hear the sound..." Pan Wenxiang must have obediently stayed in the elevator without obeying the order.

"Now? With it staying up there, we can't go anywhere. If they come here to search, they will find out soon!" Randy thought more than Pan Wenxiang.

"Master, go to Chongnan's room on the second floor, don't go near the window, take off your backpack, and do as I tell you..." In order to prevent anyone from taking pictures, Hong Tao didn't even lie down on the door. Quickly climbed down the ladder and ran downstairs, commanding while running.

"I made you disobey orders...I made you unable to bear it..." When I ran to the second floor, I happened to meet Pan Wenxiang who was running up in front of me. Needless to say, let's kick my ass first!

"Play high-tech with me, okay? If you succeed, let's see who is higher!" The feeling of meeting an opponent often does not make people retreat, but it inspires fighting spirit.Fighting people face to face with a sharp knife in hand is not Hong Tao's forte. In his bones, he likes to hide in the dark and use his brain and technical means to fight through the air.

When he came to the first floor, Hong Tao glanced in the direction of the courtyard door, then shrank behind the front desk, put the pistol and rifle on the ground, and opened the safety.From here, you can see the courtyard door through the open building door. As long as you guard the first floor, Randy and Pan Wenxiang will not be attacked.

"Master, can you use the channel scanning function?" Hong Tao continued to give orders after filling in the loophole caused by Pan Wenxiang.

"...I probably know, no, never used it!" Ever since Pan Wenxiang discovered the human body radar, every time Hong Tao took him out to perform missions, he handed him the backpack containing the multimedia command center.

"Simple, do you see the button with the yellow mark on it? It is to adjust the band, press it to change a band. The green button on the right is the search button, press it to start automatic scanning, and quickly press it twice for manual scanning. Press it once, Let it scan automatically, and it will automatically stop when it scans a signal. Just scan, first scan the 400-480MHz and 450-470MHz of the U-band, and when someone is talking, press the red button to memorize the band, and then call me! By the way, When we call between us, remember to change the group back, don't shout all over the world!"

The device found from the embassy is very powerful. Although many functions cannot be activated due to the lack of plug-ins, the basic functions are still problematic, such as encrypting group communication when the communication center is used.

In addition, it has a more powerful function similar to shortwave radio, full frequency band scanning!Use the built-in high-sensitivity antenna to capture all nearby carrier signals, and then identify them.

In layman's terms, this thing is like the kind of listening station in the movie, which can listen to nearby radio signals.But it is more powerful than ordinary listening stations, it can scan the whole band, and then use the built-in algorithm to crack part of the encrypted data.

As for what can be cracked and what can't be cracked, it seems that additional plug-in assistance is needed.At present, Hong Tao has not found a similar plug-in, let alone what this plug-in looks like and how to use it.

But it doesn't matter, its functions are designed for the battlefield, and the imaginary enemy should be some countries in the world.Now is the end of the world, and the imaginary enemy should no longer exist. In the face of civilian radio communication equipment, even if it is not a connector, the military level has to crush the civilian standard.

After talking for a long time, what exactly does Hong Tao want to use it for?Two words, monitor!

Who is listening?Naturally, it is the person who monitors and releases the drone.Since everyone can think of using drones for monitoring, there should be no lack of communication equipment. It is impossible for the drones to find out the situation and then communicate with each other by shouting.

If there are no special circumstances, these people are unlikely to find a military radio, and they are likely to be using car radios and hand radios.All civilian car stations and mobile stations have relatively fixed communication frequency bands. Even if they have frequency hopping function, they are only for anti-interference, and they should not be able to escape the capture of military technology.

Facts have proved that military use is all-round crushing of civilian use. The little fat man played this function for the first time. Even after fumbling and practicing, in less than 5 minutes, the other party's communication frequency was caught before the first frequency band was scanned.

Of course, it’s also thanks to the environment of the end times. If it was in the past, the frequency band was full of people, and it would be easy to catch them, but it would be troublesome to distinguish the content of the call. You have to listen to each one to see if it is the person you are looking for.

Compared with Hong Tao's group, the other party obviously had a large number of people. In the channel alone, there were at least seven people speaking, six men and one woman.The male Hong Tao didn't know who it was, but this woman should be the pretty face, devilish figure, and sweet voice that Jiao San talked about.

"It's the most poisonous woman's heart..." But Hong Tao's sweet voice was more uncomfortable than Sun Dacheng's hoarse cry. Find out, and those who follow her will prosper, and those who oppose her will perish!

The other party must not know that all mobile phone calls have been monitored, and they are discussing how the car started, whether the ambush circle has been discovered, and what to do next.

"They want to raid our base! God, this is crazy. We don't even know each other, we haven't even met and spoken, why?"

Randy couldn't listen anymore. He couldn't figure out why the two groups of survivors were hostile to each other as soon as they came up, and they fought each other. They didn't even go through the stage of negotiation and bargaining.

"The reason is very simple. They need a lot of labor to consolidate the base and expand the search area. This reason is very good. Didn't I say that if the number of human survivors is too small, then people will become the most valuable...commodity on earth! "

This may be a cultural difference. Westerners like to talk about everything first, put forward their own opinions, and bargain with each other.Talk about it as long as you can, if you really can't cooperate, it's not too late to fight again.

But in Chinese culture, the right way is to act first to be strong and then to suffer disaster, to attack by surprise and attack by surprise, and the winner is king, especially the last one, which fully expounds the theory that if you want to succeed, you have to win by any means.

They will use all means, and they must stop calling if they can't say hello.We are all survivors, whoever is the leader is not the leader, maybe my subordinates can play a greater role.Eliminating you is not about fighting for power, but for the progress of all mankind, for the development of productivity, for...

"...Then do you also want to destroy them, grab all the valuable goods, and become a victorious king?" Randy obviously disagrees with Hong Tao's explanation. The essence of millennium culture can only be understood literally.

Chapter 130 Promoting Peace Through War

"It's not sure yet. If you have any good way to prevent me and everyone in the rescue team from being caught as commodities, just say it quickly. Anger, disappointment, or cynicism won't do anything."

There was an argument on this issue two days ago, and Hong Tao didn't want to do it again.Two people with completely different worldviews and ideologies cannot unify their thoughts in a short period of time. It is useless to talk too much.

"...Pan, what's your opinion?" Randy hesitated for a while. There should be no good solution, but he still didn't give up and wanted to mobilize the masses.

"I have no idea. Anyway, I don't want to be a prisoner. The rescue team is very good, and Captain Hong treats me... very well. I will listen to him!" Pan Wenxiang responded immediately, but he had one sentence It was obvious that he didn't mean what he said, but no matter how choking he was, he finally said it out, very resolutely.

"...Can we talk about it first, maybe we can have a better result." Without support, Randy lacked momentum.

"Of course, I never said we can't talk about it. But there is a difficult problem that can't be solved, who can we talk about?" Hong Tao showed a smile, who can't talk cheaply, who can't sing high-profile, stand up Who wouldn't take the moral high ground!I want to see if you say one thing and do another, or if you really care about all mankind!

"...I am willing to be a representative, but I need authorization, not just someone's mouthpiece!" Taking a deep breath, Randy was finally blocked.

There are only two paths in front of him now, either admit the failure of his ideas, completely overthrow the previous worldview, and rebuild it again, or stand up and practice his ideas.

"I think so. Neither you nor I have the right to represent anyone. The rescue team is not the government. It has no coercive power. Decisions about everyone's fate must be implemented after everyone's consent. So I cannot and have no right to give you Any authorization can only mean that I agree with your suggestion in principle, but the details of the specific operation need to be carefully considered. Don't forget, you are also a member of the rescue team, and you can't put everyone's safety at risk just for your own ideas .In that case, what is the difference between you and the winner?"

It's a pity that even if Randy is willing to come forward, this matter still won't work.And it wasn't Hong Tao's intentional embarrassment, but according to Randy's logic, he rashly came forward to negotiate with the other party, and it was as unreasonable to kill each other after meeting two survivor teams.

"...I can't convince you for the time being, but I reserve my point of view!" Surprisingly, Randy didn't get angry or quarrel. After thinking for a while, after confirming that Hong Tao's theory could not be defeated, he voluntarily chose to back down.

"Master, do you see that our team leader Lan is very rational, he is willing to speak the truth and lead by example, this is called do unto others as you would have them do to you." So far, Hong Tao has a general understanding of Randy. Temperament, and secretly give a thumbs up.

Think about it in another place. If you were in Randy's position, I'm afraid it would not be so easy to give up.There is also theoretical support. Didn't the ancients say that those who achieve great things do not care about small details.

"Then what should we do? They are discussing setting up an ambush to capture Brother Jiao, and they are going to find our base!" Pan Wenxiang became a little impatient, and tried to remind Hong Tao to do something serious by summarizing the conversations he heard.

There are a bunch of people outside who are thinking hard about how to rob houses and catch young men, but you are a captain and a team leader, but you are talking nonsense here.The talk was so hype, but there was no shit.Comparing the two, it seems that the opposite leader is more capable.

Hong Tao could hear the call content of the other party in the helmet without the little fat man reminding him.At this time, the drone has left the treetops, slowly lowered its altitude, and slowly disappeared from the field of vision.The frequency of those people's calls also gradually decreased, obviously feeling that the ambush might fail this time, and they were preparing to evacuate.

"I also tend to talk on both sides. Even if they can't become one, they can still coexist peacefully. Now there are endless supplies and the premise of competing for basic necessities of life does not exist. Everyone can develop freely, even in some areas. To complement each other, having one more friend is not a bad thing, what do you think?"

Hong Tao didn't delay in thinking when he was colliding with Randy.He didn't think about the problems of all human beings at all, but thought about how to give the other party a pot on the premise of protecting himself.

But after thinking for a long time and designing N plans, I finally found that none of them could achieve the goal unscathed.It's not that he is too incompetent, but that the other party is also very strong.

From the content of the call just now, it is known that the other party must have firearms, and the number, power, and training level are unknown.Although I have high-power standard equipment on my side, and there are a lot of them, the training is basically equal to none, and there are no more than four that can really be used.Others don't say whether they can hit accurately or not, whether they will accidentally injure their companions is a problem, and the two sides are considered a tie.

In terms of personnel composition, the opponent should have a slight advantage. These few people sound like that, with online IQ and not afraid of fighting.Of course, there must be a discount between saying and doing.

Looking at the rescue team, only myself, Ran Di, Jiao San, and Sun Jianshe can stand on the front line, and Zhang Tao, Hu Ran, and Zhang Fengwu can also be counted as those who can make do with the wind. Pan Wenxiang.

But among these people, the only ones who really dared to shoot at strangers were themselves, Jiao San and Sun Jianshe.It's not that Randy didn't dare, but he was uncertain about his attitude. For the time being, there are only four people, and the rest have a high probability of failing.

Weapons and personnel are not superior, so can we rely on terrain to gain an advantage?Rao is Hong Tao, who claims to be a living map, but after thinking about it, he still didn't realize that his small courtyard has the temperament of one man being in charge of the other.

The actual situation is that the terrain is not dominant, and there are winds leaking from all directions in the southeast, northwest, and the enemy can monitor from the other side of the lake at any time, and then attack from all directions after discovering weaknesses.Needless to say, two or three Molotov cocktails can solve most of the resistance, and if they don't come out to be a target for others, they will have to be burned to death.

The weather... They are all in the same city, only a few kilometers apart, and there is a cloud above their heads, so the weather can be ignored.Then the weather, the right place, the harmony of people, plus a weapon and equipment, it’s all right, shouldn’t it be time to raise your hands and surrender!

No, if the comparison of strength on paper alone can determine the outcome of the two sides, human beings will not have to fight again and again.Individuals from both sides hold poker cards and compare each other's size to save trouble.

"That's it?" Pan Wenxiang was very disappointed. Even if he was impulsive and clamored to fight the opponent to the death, or if he was a little obscene and found a place to hide, he was more like a leader than a repeater.

"...I'd like to..." Randy was also puzzled. Could it be that the captain is suffering from Alzheimer's disease? Why did he speak upside down? He didn't agree a minute ago, but now he made the same suggestion.

"Wait, don't be willing or unwilling. Now is not the time to talk. I want them to sit at the negotiating table calmly. Don't hold any unrealistic fantasies. It's useless to just talk. You have to show Show our strength and prove that we are qualified to sit on an equal footing with them, so that we can talk more pragmatically."

Hong Tao interrupted Randy's self-introduction, and lit a cigarette while expressing his opinion.The drone has already left, and even if the opponent does not withdraw, they will have to rearrange the ambush circle. Will they search everywhere for a while.

"Then what are you going to do? Do you have to use force? Didn't you say that survivors are the most precious resources, and once a conflict occurs between the two sides, no one can control the casualties!"

Randy just doesn't want to see the survivors kill each other, so he is willing to take the risk of negotiating.But he also understood that he didn't have the ability, so he had to convince the leader of the rescue team.

"Our ancestors left a saying that the lesser of two evils. It probably means that if the loss is unavoidable, choose the way with the least loss. Don't interrupt, listen to me. I will give them a chance to choose , if we don’t take the initiative to attack, then we won’t attack either. Anyway, we have to move. With the increase of the buffer zone, it may be a month or more before we meet again. Maybe the situation will change. If they take the initiative to attack us, In order to avoid greater losses, I can only choose a smaller loss to make them stop their stupid actions, and it is best to sit down at the negotiating table and have a good talk. How is it, is my solution reasonable?" A few puffs of cigarettes Going down, Hong Tao felt that the speed of his brain seemed to be a little higher, his thoughts became clearer, and his expression became more and more wretched.

"Yes, if people don't attack me, I won't attack people. If people attack me, I will definitely attack people!" Pan Wenxiang interjected before Randy could make up his mind.

Bloodshed is the last thing he wants to see. With so much food, drink and clothing, he is almost rich in material resources. Why do you have to fight and kill? Even if you don’t want to get together to play, you can live your own life Well.

When playing games before, he likes to shrink in a corner and develop slowly, rarely provoking.But things backfired, the more dull the development, the easier it is to be attacked by other players.What I just said just hit the bottom of my heart. If Captain Hong can lead everyone along this way, he will be supported by 1 people.

"Can I hear your plan first?" Randy is not as easy to fool as Pan Wenxiang. What is a small loss? How small is it?

"Hey hey... I'll talk to you later, suspend the call, I want to contact my family first!" Seeing that Randy didn't refuse, Hong Tao was very relieved.

Although this foreigner came late, he was of great help to the team. It's a pity to drive him away like this.It's all right now, as long as he is willing to let go of his obsession and think about the problem along his own line of thought, the differences will become smaller and smaller.

If he doesn't want to, that's okay, he can take risks, but he can't stay in the rescue team anymore.It has nothing to do with being a nation or a country.The team protects you, so you have to contribute to protecting the team. Such a simple truth applies everywhere.

Chapter 131 Gao Tianyi

There is a wedding photo on the table. The bride is wearing a white wedding dress and is held in the arms of the groom. Both of them have sincere smiles on their faces, which makes people yearn for a better life when they see it.

"Rest in peace, Xiaomei, I will live a good life. Not only do I want to live, but I also want to create a great career!" Suddenly a hand stretched out and pushed the photo frame down on the table.

The owner of the hand is a strong man, with a sharp face, fair skin, and delicate eyebrows and eyes, but he doesn't look too quiet, on the contrary, he has a heroic spirit.If you stand up the photo frame, you can find that he looks very similar to the groom in the photo.

That's right, he is the official groom in the photo, named Gao Tianyi, who happens to be 35 years old this year, and his birthday was just over a month ago.Speaking of this month, it's like a disaster movie, with joys and sorrows, ups and downs, and almost all the negative emotions in the world.

Gao Tianyi has a very happy family. His father is an officer of the General C, and his rank is not low. His mother is also a soldier and works in the General H.As the only son in his family, he received a relatively orthodox military family education since he was a child, and his parents had high expectations. They always wanted him to join the army and continue the family tradition.

But Gao Tianyi, like many children, always betrayed his childhood ideals when he was young.This time he did not follow his parents' advice to apply for the military academy, but chose to study abroad together with his high school classmates.

When I returned to China five years later, I had already become an architect. Of course, I did not have any formal works.The high school classmate who studied abroad with him became his bride, that is, the woman in the wedding dress in the photo.

The parents were a little disappointed with his choice, but they did not object to the child taking his own life path. When the son returned to China, they still tried their best to support him to enter the planning and design unit.

I don't know if it's because of his talent or the support of his parents, or both. Gao Tianyi's work went very smoothly, and he was promoted to the deputy director of the department in less than five years. I got it too, and became the youngest deputy director in the entire system.

According to this path of development, in the early forties, there is a chance to win the title of director of the department.If you catch up with the opportunity and get appreciated, your future is limitless.

As the old saying goes, if a person is unlucky, drinking cold water will clog his teeth.As the old saying goes again, when luck comes, it cannot be stopped.On the day of his birthday, ten years of marriage finally came to fruition, and his wife became pregnant!Double happiness is not enough to describe the feeling at that time, solid three happiness!

The ancients had to come out and speak at this time, what things flourish and decline, extreme joy begets sorrow, and things must be reversed when extreme.

Two days later, when Gao Tian went to his subordinate unit to inspect the work, the leader of the unit had a good personal relationship with him, so he insisted on celebrating, but when he was happy, he drank too much and became unconscious.

The leader of that unit also had good intentions. He was afraid of going home in the middle of the night and causing trouble, so he called his home and simply sent him back to his unit's office to make do with the bed on duty.

Then... when he woke up with dry mouth and tongue, he found that the world had changed.The office building was full of noise, and there were strange things outside the building chasing and biting people, as if in a dream.

After calming down for a while, Gao Tian made sure that he was not dreaming. His mobile phone and landline were all disconnected, and the electricity was also cut off. Everything was very similar to the plot in the zombie movie.

After understanding his situation, Gao Tianyi did not despair, but launched active self-help.Relying on the physical fitness and flexibility gained from years of exercise and participating in amateur boxing and fighting, he successfully knocked to death two zombies in the corridor on the third floor with only a steel armrest removed from the swivel chair, one of which was sent to the hospital. The friend he came back from.

After getting the fire ax in the fire box in the corridor, he became more courageous. He went all the way downstairs, closed the shutter door, and started to clean up one by one, and rescued two survivors on the second floor.

They are all employees of this unit, they are not very old, because they have been watching the construction site all the year round, they are both strong and ruthless.The three of them discussed together that this is an office building, and there is nothing they need except bottled water. It is not an ideal place to stick to and wait for help. They must be transferred to the engineering team dormitory at the back, because there is a canteen there.

To put it simply, the three of them, each with a fire axe, covered each other out of the office building, fought a bloody path among the zombies that kept surrounding them, and finally arrived at the dormitory building hundreds of meters away, and occupied the cafeteria .

For four whole days, the three of them had been waiting for rescue from outside, but they couldn't wait for the left and right.During the period, they heard cries for help from the nearby construction site shaft, and rescued a pair of brothers from it.

They are the engineering team who built the subway tunnel. They work in three shifts. Most of them turned into zombies, and a small number of people changed after being bitten by zombies. Only the two of them climbed up the shaft first. The one who landed on the ground carried it for two days before being rescued.

Seeing that the hope of getting rescue is getting slimmer and the food in the cafeteria is getting less and less, Gao Tianyi decides that he can't sit still, but must find a way to save himself.But there are more and more zombies outside, and five people with cold weapons can't kill them all.

At this time, the two brothers suddenly spoke. Another shaft not far away was specially used for transporting earthwork. Logically speaking, there should be muck trucks there.As long as you can get the car, it is not impossible to rush out from here.

Gao Tian made a quick decision, no matter what the price was, he had to rush over to have a look.The other four people firstly had no better way, secondly, they wanted to thank their life-saving grace, and thirdly, they were used to obeying orders from their leaders.Here, Gao Tianyi has the highest official position, and the five-member team was organized without much effort.

In order to boost morale, Gao Tianyi also worked hard, and took the initiative to rush to open the way for everyone.As the saying goes, a soldier loves a general, and with leaders and saviors taking the lead, everyone showed their strength to break through the siege of zombies and enter the fence of the subway construction site.

There are not only cars, but two!Only the drivers have changed.The five people who had killed red eyes didn't say a word, went up and opened the drivers, and the driver was chopped into pieces by a few big axes before his feet hit the ground.

With two muck trucks, it is not difficult to rush out of the unit compound, and the zombies on the road will certainly not be able to stop them, but where should we go next?At this time, the other four people had already regarded Gao Tianyi as the backbone, and they all expressed that they would let him make up their minds.

Gao Tian calmed down and thought about it, and finally remembered a place.Not far from the construction site is the official garden. Others may not know much about the underground buildings there. He is a planner, and he went there himself two years ago. There is really no other suitable shelter than there.

So five people and two cars installed a lot of steel pipe scaffolding, two diesel generators, four barrels of diesel oil, and several bundles of wires from the construction site, rushed out of the fence, and arrived at the official garden smoothly all the way east.

How to open the gate and how to clean up the sporadic zombies inside is not exhausting. The five of them not only occupied the huge courtyard unscathed, but also rescued two surviving security guards inside.

With a truck and a safe shelter, after going through the period of fear and hesitation, after eating and drinking enough, Wu Tianyi began to think about how to go home and have a look.In fact, with his judgment and observation, he could easily come to the same judgment as Hong Tao.But like Hong Tao, he was unwilling to go back and have a look.
