doomsday lamb

In the third year of the Cataclysm, it was May 9th.

The army of zombies attacked Liangzhou City and killed 100,000 people.

Afterwards, the zombie army divided into two groups, one of which went north along the eastern foot of Daliang Mountain.

The other branch first went eastward to reach the coast of the river, and then went straight along the river.

From May 10th to 14th, the corpse tide swept through many gathering places along the way.

From Yuexi and Ganluo in the north to Shaojue in the east,

Wherever the zombie tide goes, they are invincible, and massacres of cities are not uncommon.

After hearing the news, the entire southern Sichuan region was in chaos.

The gathering place on the marching route of the zombie wave was in panic.

Countless people fled with their families and families to safer areas in the north.

Crowds of people fleeing for their lives hung up and down the road, stretching for dozens of miles, blocking traffic.

There were so many people there that you couldn't even see the side.

Jincheng learned the news and hurriedly sent troops south to stop the corpse tide.

However, after the entire army withdrew westward in the first year of the Doomsday, there were not many troops left in the Tianfu garrison area.

Its main battle units are now mainly guarding local military factories in Deyang and Mianyang, north of Jincheng.

The mountains are high and the roads are far away. From here, there are still three to four hundred miles away, so there is no time to rescue.

At this time, stationed in southern Sichuan were second-line troops recruited from several independent regiments of the original 752 Division by Jincheng after the disaster.

Although there are many people, they are poorly trained, the personnel are mixed, and the equipment is in short supply.

At that time, a brigade-level team under the New 752 Department was ordered to garrison the Jiang Defense Front.

On the morning of May 12th, they encountered a wave of corpses on the East Road at Yongshan Pass and had a fierce battle.

As a result, under the attack of the zombie tide, the New 1st Brigade was completely defeated and had to abandon its baggage and retreat northward.

In this way, there will no longer be any obstacles on the way forward for the corpse tide on the east road.

Just after the evening of that day, Jincheng received news that the zombie wave had captured Laojun Mountain.

The tide of corpses travels more than a hundred miles a day, and this speed is not unpleasant.

If we continue to let it go eastwards at this time,

If you can't stop it when you reach the Minjiang River section,

The tide of corpses may cross the river and threaten the Bayu region to the east.

It will even drive straight along the low hills and hills on the eastern edge of the basin, deep into the Central Plains.

For this reason, He Qiliang sent a distress message to Qinchuan and Chang'an.

The former has not replied yet, but Zhao Shifeng, who did not want to be in Chang'an, refused.

He saw that the corpse group had the posture of entering the pass from the east,

Instead of reinforcements, they hoarded heavy troops at the intersection of the two forces and built many forts on the spot.

Pretend to be watching the fire from the other side.

"Zhao Shifeng, this old ghost! He used to blow up bridges when the zombies in the south of the Yangtze River were in trouble, but now it's better and he actually built the Great Wall!"

In the Jincheng Defense Hall, He Qiliang was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot.

He looked at the latest news he had obtained, and the anger in his heart could not help but burst out.

"Southern Sichuan is in an emergency. What is he doing by ordering people to guard and defend the front line of Bashan? Don't you know the truth of death and coldness?"

One of the staff officers said: "Sir, the Central Plains garrison is standing guard in Bashan, hoping to suppress the activities of the zombie tide in the Tianfu area. They want to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, and let us fight with the zombie tide to consume them first. If they act like this,

You will definitely bring shame on yourself!"

"That's right." Another person said, "The Zhao family has been coveting our Bazhong area for a long time, and Bao Buqi is planning to drive away the tiger and devour the wolf.

Sir, since Zhao Shifeng is so short-sighted, I think it is better to just let the tide of corpses pass by and let them fight with the Zhao family to the death of both sides. Let these guys taste the pain we have suffered during this time!"

"No!" He Qiliang waved his hand to interrupt the advice of the staff, "Not to mention there are millions of survivors in the East Sichuan Basin, even if there is no one there, we cannot allow the zombie tide to approach our rear. Otherwise, it will be really difficult if we are attacked from both sides.

The heavens and the earth should not be called together.”

For a moment, the staff officers were speechless. They looked at each other, you looked at me and I looked at you, but an older adjutant mustered up the courage to report to He Qi:

"Sir, it's not that the brothers are forcing you to be the bad guy. It's really the situation that forces you to do it. There's no other way. You don't know, right? The other zombie wave moved very fast, and our troops couldn't stop it at Ebian.

They, they are almost at Jiazhou City now."

After passing Jiazhou and another two hundred miles away, we will reach Jincheng.

"Why so fast?" He Qiliang was a little surprised for a while.

"I don't dare to lie to you. Now the tide of corpses is as strong as a rainbow. There are millions of people on the west route alone. Ordinary troops cannot stop it at all. The current plan is to mobilize troops from the east to return reinforcements.

The whole Sichuan force will defend our base camp. If we don’t make a decision soon, Liangshan will serve as a warning to Jincheng!"

Jincheng is the core area of ​​the Tianfu garrison area after the disaster. There are countless supplies stored here and there are millions of survivors, so there must be no loss.

】

How could He Qiliang not understand this truth?

But if the zombie tide is allowed to advance eastward, although Jincheng may survive, it will mean abandoning millions of survivors in eastern Sichuan.

But if we look at it the other way around, once Jincheng is lost and the Tianfu garrison completely collapses, the zombie wave will still sweep through the entire Tianfu, killing everyone living here.

At this difficult moment, the pressure on He Qiliang's shoulders is so heavy that ordinary people can hardly imagine it.

In the end, it is time to abandon the pawn and save the chariot, and actively and rationally be the sinner of history.

Still holding on for dear life, putting the safety of the entire Sichuan at risk for the sake of an illusory sense of honor.

For He Qiliang, who had just turned 30 when the disaster occurred, the test at this moment was too heavy.

"Sir, we really can't wait any longer..."

At this time, the staff members wanted to give one or two more words of advice, but someone came to report that the Secretary-General of the Self-Government Commission, Chu Feng, who flew from Yubei, had arrived.

"Sir, Mr. Chu is here."

He Qiliang frowned hard and waved the others away.

"Okay, I understand. You all go down."

…

In the third year of the disaster, it was May 13th.

A piece of news spread from the Internet detonated the entire Jiazhou City.

"A wave of millions of corpses is rampaging across southern Sichuan and will soon reach the gates of Jiazhou City."

Since the corpse tide broke through Liangshan and moved north and east, the Minjiang River, which flows from northwest to southeast and spans the entire southern Sichuan, has become the key to whether it can stop the corpse tide.

Jiazhou City is an important transportation hub in the northern section of the Minjiang River, and the people in the city are undoubtedly in the midst of a storm.

Most of these people are Tianfu's local defense forces, with only one exception - Lang Hua.

He and Chu Mingrui came here from Jiangfang Camp a few days ago, and they never rested since then.

Lang Hua understood better than anyone else that the battle in Jiazhou would be extremely critical.

If the tide of corpses can be stopped on the west bank of the Minjiang River and make up for the mistakes made by the coalition forces in western Guizhou, it will be not too late to make amends.

If the zombie wave really breaks through from here, rushing out of Tianfu and radiating all over the country, it will inevitably bring about extremely serious chain reactions.

In the last three years, especially at this time, if the war between humans and corpses is allowed to continue to escalate, it will usher in the same ending as in the previous life.

This is also the ending that Lang Hua least expected to see.

The temporary headquarters of Jiazhou City was established in a compound in the city.

Chu Mingrui ran in from the dusty outside. Without even glancing at Lang Hua, he picked up the teapot and drank a gulp of it.

After he finished sipping, Lang Hua asked: "Mingrui, how are the three lines of defense outside the city being arranged?"

Unexpectedly, the other party said: "No, there are still not enough people. Our troops are now sent out to receive refugees, and there is no manpower to set up a defense line."

"Is it okay to mobilize the people in the city? The reward set by the coalition forces can be doubled."

"Pull it down, you won't be able to fix it even if you increase it ten times. City Lord Lang, you don't know. Now everyone in the city is thinking about running away. Who will stay with you and die for that crystal core?"

"What should we do? Mingrui, how long will it take for the main German and foreign forces that your parents said will arrive?"

"That's not certain. I heard the news yesterday that they haven't passed Jincheng yet. I think it will take two days at the earliest. What, do you have an idea?"

"Yeah. I think the plan for now is to use the word 'drag'. It's not about fighting the zombies head-on, but about spending time with them."

Chu Mingrui's eyes lit up and he became interested. He urged: "Tell me more specifically."

"Come and see." Lang Hua unfolded a map and pointed at a point on it with his finger. "As long as the ten thousand people from Qilipo are transferred back and a new defense line is built in the river bend area in front of Jiazhou, we can rely on the water depth.

The fast-flowing Dadu River delayed the tide of corpses as much as possible.

According to this principle, the defense line outside Jiazhou City was also set up at the river bend. Change the three to one, concentrate the superior forces to block the enemy, and then the remaining people will act as a commando team to fight in roundabout ways, interspersed operations, and disrupt their combat deployment...
