I am in the last days, I can connect to reality
Chapter 290 The Madness of Mutual Destruction
"Major Yan, I think what Second Lieutenant Li said makes sense. We're trapped here. If we don't find a solution, we're going to die. If that happens, won't we still fail the mission?"
Just when everyone was silent, a man in his early thirties spoke again. He had the rank of captain, only one level lower than Major Yan, but he was also a lot younger.
If it were before the end of the world, this man's future would definitely be much brighter than that of Major Yan. Although it is difficult to make the leap from lieutenant to colonel, as long as he has perseverance, he still has a chance.
What's more, this young captain, with his gentle appearance and wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, should be different from Major Yan. He should be a highly intellectual in the army.
It is no secret that in modern armies, with the advancement of technology, highly educated people have easier access to promotion opportunities!
"Huh, who said we didn't think of a solution? Haven't we been calling our superiors?"
Major Yan's voice was harsh and incomparably cold, causing the young captain to flinch. He also felt a little dispirited, but he glanced at his colleagues with flickering eyes and said, "But we've been calling out for the past few months, but there's been no response from above. Perhaps they've already..."
Following the young captain's words, Major Yan's tall and burly body shook violently, and a look of pain appeared on his face, but it quickly disappeared.
Major Yan took a deep breath, slowly glanced at his colleagues gathered around him, and said, "Even so, we are wearing this uniform and should shoulder our responsibilities. Our superiors gave us the final order to hold our ground. Can we just watch these unidentified guys steal all the supplies from the base?"
The young captain's face was bitter as he whispered, "Well, what do you say we should do? If we can break out, we won't be trapped here to death. Besides, even if we can break out, can we drive them away with just a dozen or so pistols?"
"Oh, we don't have to go out, we just need to do one thing." After Major Yan said this, he seemed to be relieved, and a relieved smile appeared on his face.
Hearing what Major Yan said, the faces of the soldiers around him turned pale, and everyone's eyes were filled with panic and helplessness.
"Woooooooo..."
A low, sobbing female voice came from the corner. It was the young Lieutenant Li who had spoken at the beginning. She covered her mouth with her hands, but two lines of tears still slid down her fair cheeks.
Beside her, there were two female soldiers, hugging each other and crying softly. They seemed to know what Major Yan was talking about.
After glancing at the three crying female soldiers, Major Yan looked at the people around him with a burning gaze. Their expressions varied. Some didn't dare to look him in the eye, but simply lowered their heads...
Some people straightened their backs and looked at Major Yan with firm eyes, their faces revealing a sense of determination.
"Comrades, we who wear this uniform carry the military spirit passed down by our predecessors. Even though we are now in this humble room, it cannot stop our unwavering will! Rest assured, our country will not forget our sacrifices, and our deeds will surely be passed down like those of our ancestors..."
……
"No! No! I don't agree. Country? What country is there? We are a top-secret unit. Ever since Wang Boshen led his men to the Magic City, how long has it been since we lost contact with our superiors?
At this moment, the young captain suddenly became emotional. He loudly refuted the major's words and shouted heartbreakingly: "Yan Shikai, you are a fucking lunatic. If you want to die, don't involve us..."
As the young captain loudly refuted Major Yan's words, hesitation flickered on the faces of some people. They had been holding on here for too long, so long that they were even a little desperate...
They stayed in this small monitoring room for five whole months, five months that felt like being in prison!
You know, the space here is small. To save electricity, they can't use the air conditioner to ventilate the room. To save water, they can't shower. Every day, they sit in front of the communicator, mumbling to themselves like idiots, calling for their superiors...
But even though they called for five months, they did not receive any response from their superiors. Two months ago, they would occasionally hear the same cries for help from survivors of other bases on some non-top-secret channels.
But in the past two months, this sound has disappeared, as if they have been abandoned by the whole world. Moreover, as the food here gradually decreases, they don’t even know how long they can hold on.
Originally, they hoped that Wang Boshen, who led the troops to the Magic City, would come back in time to rescue them, but as time passed, this hope was gradually shattered!
Until today, when Qin Zhong cautiously came to the big iron gate and opened it with the words written on it, the monitoring room was filled with celebration, and everyone's eyes were filled with the joy of being reborn.
But this celebration was instantly suppressed by Major Yan's stern voice. He pointed at Qin Zhong on the surveillance screen and scolded him, "How can you be sure that this person is not deceiving us?"
"If he is really Wang Boshen's friend, why didn't Wang Boshen come?"
"Besides, even if Wang Boshen came, he is only a lieutenant. What right does he have to bring people into the base? This is a top-level confidential unit!"
After Major Yan said this, everyone hesitated. After all, what he was talking about was the security clauses of the base, and there was no problem with it.
Major Yan then ordered the soldiers at the console to start the automatic artillery and resolutely resist the invaders. The young captain raised objections, but was seriously rejected by Major Yan.
Who knew that after opening fire, Qin Zhong's ghostly speed would shock everyone!
For a moment, everyone's emotions were agitated. Seeing Qin Zhong's ghostly speed, most people couldn't help but think of seeking his help. After all, they had been trapped in the underground monitoring room for too long!
If there were no external forces, they would be dead. If this seemingly extraordinary man helped them, perhaps they would still have a chance to survive.
Contrary to these people's ideas, there is a minority of staunch factions headed by Major Yan. He and his supporters are determined to executor orders. When they saw Qin Zhong break through the machine gun blockade in front of the door and force his way into the base, they were worried that the base would be occupied by Qin Zhong.
The best way to solve this situation is the one proposed by Major Yan. Maybe this method is not the best solution, but it is the best and only solution at the moment!
"Have you forgotten your identities? Who are you? You are soldiers... From the moment you put on this uniform, your life is no longer your own, it belongs to the nation. Now the nation demands your death, and you must obey!"
After Major Yan said these words expressionlessly, the monitoring room became even quieter. Everyone lowered their heads in thought. They were soldiers, modern soldiers, soldiers who had never experienced war.
Now that we have entered the end of the world, most of their colleagues have turned into man-eating monsters, and now it is their turn to decide their own destiny.
But this choice is really too difficult to make!
