Corrupted Nation

Maya made her own decision and said: "The railway bridge base is almost developed. There is basically no worries. I can go with you." This means that I will send one person and you will send two.

Lin Wu disagreed: "No, our guns don't have bullets yet." He looked at Nightmare.

Nightmare didn't know what Lin Wu meant and laughed angrily: "We still have more than 60 rifle bullets and 50 pistol bullets."

Lin Wu was startled: "How can I fight with such a small amount of weapons?" It's not enough for me to rip off.

Nightmare explained: "We are going for a sneak attack."

At this time, Xue Meng said: "Why don't we cooperate with the veteran base? Let them provide people and bullets?"

Maya thinks it's feasible: "The Veterans Base wants to take revenge, and also wants to prevent the bandit group from taking over the Veterans Club. After all, from the perspective of the Veterans Base, the arms in the vault in the basement of the Veterans Club belong to them."

"We will send two people each." Xue Meng looked at Lin Wu and said, "You must want to go."

"I don't want to go, I don't even want to move now."

Xue Meng grinned: "Sister, I owe you a favor. After arriving on Earth, I can grant you a very excessive wish."

Lin Wu said firmly: "My wish is not to go with you."

Nightmare said: "We will put the base here temporarily. After it is completed, we will help you complete a task. You know my credibility."

Lin Wu thought for a while, then slapped him: "Five."

"one."

Lin Wu said: "Not even one of them can do it, but I have already bid. I can't get off the stage if you do this."

Nightmare was speechless: "Two?"

"Okay." These tasks are very difficult and I need help. However, in addition to the difficulty of the task, it was also highly dangerous. Lin Wu did not want to take risks with his accomplices. In addition, the reason for agreeing is as what the nightmare said. Although she has a bad temper, although she is ugly, and although she is scheming, she is indeed quite trustworthy. Of course there are other reasons, such as Lin Wu not liking Nightmare, being able to help Maya, and being bored.

Taking inventory of the equipment, Lin Wu took the M4 and Maya took the Aka rifle. The rifle did not have many bullets and each of them only took one magazine. Each person has one pistol and only one magazine. The weapon resources on Nightmare's side are not much better than those of Lin Wu and others. Fortunately, Nightmare has night vision goggles, and everyone has one. In addition, everyone has a walkie-talkie with a headset left at the east base.

Since it's summer, we don't bring warm clothes. Each person has ten cans, 3 liters of water, and basic medicines. Maya brought a recurve bow made of small meat and 20 arrows. Finally, there is a crowbar, two daggers, a camera and a laptop for each person.

The meeting gift given to the veterans at the base was four bottles of liquor, including two bottles of whiskey and two bottles of tequila. There is a prohibition on alcohol at the railway bridge base, and everyone is not very interested in alcohol, so they only drink one or two bottles of beer on summer nights.

Tonight's dinner of instant noodles with vegetables, during which we talked about this time, Xuedan, Xiaodao, Lin Meng and Xiaowu all wanted to go out together, but Maya refused and let them live well.

After the meal, the four of them set off from the Railway Bridge Base. Based on the route found by the nightmare computer, the team headed for the Veterans Base.

After getting off the rickshaw, the four people put down their night vision goggles and walked less than a hundred meters before spotting zombies. As the team continued to move forward, the density of zombies began to increase. The team did not enter the train forest, but walked south along the railroad tracks.

The lower logistics park is right next to the railway tracks. It is a place similar to a distribution center, but there are only three railway tracks. Two are main railway tracks and one is the railway track that turns to the logistics park. After the transport train arrives at the logistics park, workers empty the carriages and put the goods to be transported into designated carriages.

The goods are automatically scanned and delivered through crawler tracks. All small goods are classified according to the delivery location. Finally, they are taken away by trucks, small trucks or even three-wheelers, and delivered to every express delivery point in the city, and then delivered by couriers. .

There is a row of open factories on the side of the Lower Logistics Park facing the railway tracks. The factories have electric fence gates. Now the fence gates are all closed. A banner was hung on the platform from the fence gate to the railway track, which read: Veterans Base, no entry unless required.

You can't enter from the front, you can only enter from the side road. Maya asked everyone to hide under the platform, climbed up the platform, walked to the highway and stood there. It could be seen that there were several cars and several vans parked on the side of the highway. Maya looked up at the flashing monitor on the telephone pole, raised her left hand flashlight to shine on the monitor, pressed it a few times, turned off the flashlight and waited quietly in the darkness.

About a minute or so, a bearded man wearing camouflage uniform appeared on the road, and there seemed to be people following him. Big Beard walked to Maya's position three meters away. After the two exchanged a few words, Maya put the weapon on the ground and left with Big Beard.

About ten minutes later, Maya came back and said, "Come in." She took back the weapons on the ground.

Lin Wu and the others got on the road, walked 50 meters and then turned left into the parking lot of the logistics park. Trucks that transport express delivery and small items are usually parked here. Now there are also many trucks, and there is also a monster truck parked on one side. .

The structure of the logistics park is U-shaped, surrounded by buildings and with a parking lot in the middle. There are many internal facilities, including an inspection department, a shipping department, etc. Goods to be transported by rail must first be inspected, tagged, and delivered to the loading and unloading dock via crawlers. Loaders put goods with different destinations into different carriages.

Most of the U-shaped buildings are factories, and some of them are long three-story buildings, which are mainly administrative work areas, rest areas for drivers and workers, changing rooms, etc.

There is light on the third floor of the administrative building, and there is only so much light in the huge logistics park. Maya led people to the stairs of the administrative building. A girl was waiting here. The girl also wore camouflage uniforms and led everyone to the third floor. However, instead of going to the bright room, she knocked on the door outside a dark room.

The door opened and the black curtain was pushed aside, revealing a bright light inside. In addition to the bearded man whom Maya met before, there were two other people in the room. There is a curtain at the end of the room, and behind the curtain is an iron frame bed. It is obvious that this is not only their main base, but also a place for them to rest and eat. Judging from the details, it can be speculated that there are about 7 people in the veterans base, which is inconsistent with the 5 people he introduced in the previous broadcast. Maybe he wanted to pretend to be a pig and eat the tiger, or maybe he was a member who was recruited later.

Lin Wu was very curious in his heart as to why the veteran base was willing to let everyone enter its core command headquarters and living area with guns. Maya told Lin Wu that she was a survivor of the railway bridge base. After the other party asked a few questions related to the railway bridge, she was relieved.

After sitting down and chatting, I found out that the veteran base had already conducted reconnaissance on the railway bridge base nearest to them. Not only did they dispatch scouts, but they also used drones to monitor them for two days. Judging from the feedback, they identified the railway bridge base as a friendly and capable base.

Trust also comes from the conversation between Beard and Maya, and also represents the goodwill of the veteran base.

After hearing Maya explain the purpose of the trip, Huzi immediately announced the meeting through the intercom, and then asked everyone to wait here. All four of them left the room and went to their exclusive conference room. Obviously there are limits to trust. Later, Lin Wu learned that the Veterans Base had eleven members at that time. After they entered the logistics park, at least four secret sentries were responsible for keeping an eye on them.

About 20 minutes later, Huzi and the girl returned to the room. They first apologized for leaving, then sat down and said, "We can provide a batch of ammunition, provided that the two of us join the team and I serve as the team leader."

Maya said: "You don't know them."

Huzi said: "You don't understand us either."

Lin Wu said: "Your name is Xiao Hu, and her name is Xiaonv."

Huzi smiled and said seriously: "I have a twelve-year military career, seven of which were the captain of the special forces. She has a beast-like sense of smell and can smell danger from the air."

Maya looked at Lin Wu, Lin Wu didn't care, the worst he could do was quit. Nightmare, on behalf of Blood Dream, nodded, indicating that it was okay. Maya said: "Okay, we agree."

Huzi said: "If you are willing, you can give the gun to me. We have professional gunsmiths who can help you modify the gun and install accessories."

Nightmare asked: "When will we set off?"

Huzi replied: "Is it okay to leave tomorrow evening?"

Maya said: "I want to hear your plan first."

The little girl brought the map and Huzi said: "We already know that the bandit group is active in this area, and we also know that they have two bases, one base is a community library, and the other base is a truck. They go out to investigate and rob When the time comes, he will drive out in a truck with a motorcycle, bedding and some food and water in the truck.”

Maya said: "A truck?"

Huzi said: "I know what you mean. Theoretically, due to traffic restrictions, the scope of movement of trucks is very limited. But I don't know whether it is man-made or other reasons. Look at this road. This road is called Heishan Road, with a total length of 10 kilometers. It runs through many streets and alleys. The exits and entrances of Heishan Road are connected to the Northwest Ring Road. Their trucks can move freely on Heishan Road and this section of the Northwest Ring Road."

Beard said: "There are basically no survivors in this area. They have been using sound and fire to eliminate the zombies in the area. It can be said that they have established a 7 square kilometer base through the library base and the truck base. .There were more than 25 of them."

Nightmare: "Sorry, let me interrupt. I think I have reason to question, why do you know such details?"

Huzi hesitated for a moment and said: "Do you know about the East Base? You may not know that there have been some deserters in the East Base in the past ten days. One of the deserters was once my subordinate, and he and the other two deserters joined the bandits. group. Four days ago, he heard our broadcast and contacted me via satellite phone to introduce and explain the situation."

Maya asked: "What is his purpose?"

Huzi replied: "The Beicheng Base is a base established by some young veterans from the Veterans Club, the new recruits who retired after two years of military service. In the attack by the bandits at the Beicheng Base, all personnel died, and one of them was his sister. He He didn't plan to take revenge, and he knew he didn't have the power. But he didn't expect to meet the bandit group and recruit them."

Beard said: "His current job is to search for fuel near the library base. He doesn't know much about the bandit group's truck base, and he has only met the leader once. The leader's name is Nightmare, and he is mainly responsible for robbing and cleaning up zombies. The deputy leader’s name is Starlight, she is a woman, and she is responsible for all the work and personnel deployment of the library base.”

"Starlight?" Several people asked in surprise. It would be interesting if the sawmill base personnel were the core of the bandit group. Strictly speaking, whether it was Xingguang, Peanut, or Cuiyu, Lin Wu still regarded them as ordinary friends, and his relationship with Peanut was not bad. As for Xingguang, Lin Wu made no comment on it, but Lin Wu knew that Xingguang, a woman, was quite powerful in reality.

In this way, it also explains why the lone demon Nightmare formed a bandit group.

"Do you know Xingguang?" Huzi asked.

"I know her, she's an amazing woman." Maya asked, "Are there any people named Peanut and Cuiyu?"

"That's not clear." Huzi observed the expressions of several people and asked: "Should the leader of the bandit group be this woman named Starlight, not the man named Nightmare?"

Maya nodded.

Lin Wu said: "I am interested in killing Nightmare, but not in killing Starlight."

Nightmare: "I can do it."

Maya said: "Our position is to get rid of Nightmare first. As for Starlight... To be honest, we were friends before, but later we parted ways because of different ideas, but we never turned against each other."

Beard is a soldier, and there is a distinction between black and white in action, while Maya and the others say that there are friends in the black, which involves personal emotions. Huzi asked: "Maya, Lin Wu, do you mean you won't take the initiative to shoot at Xingguang?"

Maya nodded: "But it won't stop you from shooting."

Huzi nodded: "Very good, I like to put villains first and gentlemen first. Everyone should explain things clearly first, which is conducive to our cooperation."

After knowing that Huzi had a lot of information, Maya said: "It's less than twelve o'clock in the evening. If it's convenient, you can leave now. There's no need to wait until tomorrow night."

Huzi looked at the girl, who nodded, indicating that she was fine. Huzi said: "Okay." After that, he pulled out the walkie-talkie and asked someone to bring up the bullets.

Maya speculated that the veteran base's ammunition reserve was quite sufficient. After all, if Beard said a word, someone would send 500 rounds of rifle bullets and 500 rounds of pistol bullets. Huzi and the girl began to prepare, and Huzi explained some things about the base to the visitor.

At 12:30, the team set off.

At 7 o'clock in the morning, the team arrived near the upper distribution center and camped under a canal bridge. During the march last night, my little girl was the vanguard, killing zombies along the way, with skillful movements and light steps. The most awesome thing is that she can even break the zombie's neck with her hands without using a dagger.

After setting up camp, two people were put on duty. One person on duty flew a drone and the other guarded against zombies. Lin Wu chose to be on the same shift as his little girl, and he asked her for advice on neck-twisting techniques. Lin Wu didn't think that twisting the neck was more practical than executing with a dagger. The key was that he was handsome.

The other four cleared the protruding stones on both sides of the channel, spread sleeping bags on them, and then lay down to rest.

At five o'clock in the afternoon, after everyone ate canned biscuits and drank water, the team continued to set off. Tonight's target is the community where the bandit group's library base is located. We can't determine where we will end up at the moment, we can only tell when the time comes.

The team marched in silence, with little chatter during the day to avoid disturbing others' rest. Although there is not much verbal communication, it can be seen that Huzi is quite satisfied with the performance of everyone in the team.
