Doomsday rat

Hong Tao didn't explain too much. After the drone flew up, everyone looked at the surveillance screen and compared the map, and soon found a suitable ambush location. It was at the entrance of Xingang No. 3 Highway, which was less than [-] kilometers away from the Jishugang Bridge. .

Above is the viaduct of Qinbin Expressway, and it is very concealed to hide the large truck underneath.3 kilometers further south along Highway [-] is the bulk terminal where zombies gather. The road is wide and motorcycles can be enjoyed casually.

"Dagui, you take the people there yourself, and follow Captain Hong's command when you move and when you withdraw!" Gao Tianyi didn't say anything else, this arrangement is not difficult for the Pingnan Army, and he came out with a big truck to deal with the large group As for the zombies, if you want to say that you have never been persuaded to fight face to face.

"Captain Yan, you have to find a brave and careful brother to lure monsters. There is still a lot of ice on the road, so be careful!" Just having a big truck is not enough, someone needs to lure the zombies out.At this time, saber-toothed tigers and Mercedes-Benz big Gs are useless, and the best thing to use is a flexible motorcycle.

"Hahaha, I don't feel at ease when others do this! Come on, come on, my brother is a professional off-road player, this little trouble is nothing to worry about!" Yan Qiang has no worries about this relatively dangerous job. Care, smiled and beckoned a thin young man, who hadn't done anything before blowing.

It's not just bragging, Hong Tao thought it was professional when he saw someone pushing the motorcycle off the back of the pickup truck.Unlike the rest of the Flying Tigers, it wasn't a road race bike or a big Harley, but an off-road bike that didn't even have fenders and had snow chains wrapped around its tires.

"Let's go lower...fly slower..." The monster attractors and monster hunters have been arranged, and the next step is to let the thieves sneak over to see the number, type and distribution of monsters.This is the experience Hong Tao gained from playing games, and it is similar in reality, except that the thieves are replaced by drones.

"Good guy, you're so old and young... I don't think you can fight if you can, let the brothers take turns to go up and run a few more times, and lure them to other places!"

When the real-time video came back, the team leaders around Pan Wenxiang shook their heads and grinned unanimously.There are too many, it is not impossible to clean up, but it is too troublesome.Yan Qiang simply suggested changing the plan, turning killing into pulling a train.

"Captain Yan is right. I think this side is pretty good. The place is big, there are no buildings, and the road conditions are good. It's easy to get in and out." Gao Tian didn't feel so stubborn after seeing the dark crowd of zombies. The big truck It is strong, but it is not a tank after all. Once it breaks down, the driver will be in trouble.

"Well, I agree, let's try it first to see the effect. Captain Yan, let the brothers get familiar with the road first, and then start after a few laps. We don't lack those few 10 minutes."

Hong Tao definitely has no problem with the suggestions of these two. It is best to lure them away. The area Gao Tianyi chose is indeed suitable.There should be a stockyard over there. The roads are built like a checkerboard, extending in all directions. As long as you bring the zombies there, you can escape at high speed at any time.

However, what he really paid attention to was not how to lure zombies, but the picture sent back by the drone, his small eyes were narrowed into slits, and he was staring at the screen desperately looking for it.

"Hey, why is it gone!" Looking at it, the screen suddenly went black.

"The battery is out... What are you looking for? Tell me, four eyes are better than two!" Pan Wenxiang pointed to Peng Hao opposite, indicating that another drone was already in place. .

"Do you still remember that thing that almost killed you in the embassy?" Hong Tao looked around, and lowered his voice when there was no one else but Peng Hao.

"Ah! It, it's still alive!" Pan Wenxiang's fat face trembled violently. It seemed that he also had a deep memory of that distress.

"It must be dead, I have a feeling of déjà vu... I just can't help but think of it..." Hong Tao tried his best to put on a smile that he thought was relatively relaxed, not wanting to make the young man too nervous.

"Is it the sixth sense?! I'm familiar with this. It is said that people have supernatural abilities, but they will only be stimulated in critical moments..."

Pan Wenxiang was going to be nervous at first, but after hearing Hong Tao's narration, he immediately forgot the nervousness, and started to play with his mysterious theory again, just like when he was just rescued, he was beaming when he talked about the great mage look.

"Hush... just remember, let's find together... come to Peng Hao, you go and change the battery." Hong Tao quickly interrupted the little fat man's imagination.But it's a good thing for many people who have seen that kind of monster to help me find it together, as the eyes are more powerful.

To be honest, it is really difficult to find a zombie with no obvious difference among thousands of zombies.Most of their clothes are still there, and there are many port workers in work clothes. They can't see the color of their skin at all. As long as they don't look up, they can't find the difference in their eyes.

"Fuck... what's going on here!" Just as Hong Tao asked Pan Wenxiang to lower the height of the drone, trying to see if he could find subtle differences in the skin color of his ears and neck, the group of zombies suddenly went into a commotion.

"They have started to act, and they are using motorcycles to lure monsters. You nodded when I called you just now!" Peng Hao pointed to Gao Tianyi and Yan Qiang, who were standing on the roof of the car with a handheld platform and binoculars.

"Oh... Pull up the camera, don't look for it, it's blinding!" Hong Tao knew that he was too serious just now, and he didn't hear what he was saying, so he subconsciously agreed.

It's ridiculous to think about it, what a sixth sense, it's purely to scare myself.Now that the other two have already started to take action, don't think about it blindly, just smoke a cigarette to change your mind, and you may have to fight in person later, you can't let others do all the work.

"Captain Hong...come over and have a look...they seem to have gone back again!" Pan Wenxiang called again just as he took out the cigarette before lighting it up.

Hong Tao walked over to take a look, and sure enough, the rioting zombie group had calmed down, and the hundreds of zombies chasing the rider seemed to have lost their target, and walked back unsteadily.

The riders of the Flying Tigers didn't understand what went wrong, so they had to approach again, and then slowly speed up after being spotted by the zombies rushing towards them.But the stunned scene appeared again, the zombies suddenly stopped chasing after them, turned around and walked back.

"Captain Yan, what's the situation at the pier?" Hong Tao was sure that the rider did nothing wrong, 100% attracted the attention of the zombies, and controlled the speed and distance well.Why did you suddenly break away from contact? I can’t find the answer just by looking at the screen. I must listen to what the person concerned said.

"...It shouldn't be...it's not the first time we've played this trick..." Yan Qiang also looked confused, the rider had already explained the situation ahead, and he couldn't figure it out.

"Let my people try! Dagui, find a car to attract monsters. I don't believe it, the zombies in the capital are more stupid than the ones in Jinmen!" Gao Tianyi neither watched the screen nor listened to the report of the person involved, and had no intuition Impression, I still feel that the people of the Flying Tigers are not skilled enough, so they sent the task without any explanation.

To say that these main players of the Pingnan Army are really strong in their hands-on ability, they are also surprisingly courageous, and they are taking the path of opening and closing.

They drove the big silver G like a tiger, and rushed towards the group of zombies.After approaching, he didn't slow down much, but played a game of drift and tail flick, directly bumped his rear butt into the group of zombies, then kicked the accelerator and rushed out, and stopped more than ten meters away, waiting to be chased.

"Is this Master Dagui going to battle in person?" Hong Tao felt that there was a strong element of acting in this approach. Thinking about it, it fit Niu Dagui's style very well.

"Hehehe, both of their brothers have such a temperament, they are crazy... Hey, hey... Hey, what is this called, why did they go back after a few steps... Chairman Hong, you are just watching, there is nothing wrong with you ..."

Gao Tianyi was very satisfied with his subordinate's appearance. This was not only to deal with the zombies, but also to show the strength of the other two teams.But before he finished speaking, the faint smile disappeared, his face was full of disbelief, and he asked Hong Tao to testify.

Chapter 276 A Possibility

"...There is nothing wrong with it, Captain Yan, Commander Gao, let the brothers stop first, there must be something wrong here, it is best not to let the brothers risk their lives before they figure it out!" Even if Gao Tianyi didn't shout Hong Tao would not say that the Pingnan Army was perfunctory, but no matter where the problem was, he could not try again, it was too abnormal!

The people withdrew, but the drone did not. In order to make the battery life longer, the speaker was simply removed, and the two switched to patrol the sky above the pier, together with Randy on the customs building as eyes.

It is said that three cobblers can beat Zhuge Liang. Six or seven cobblers from the Rescue Team, Pingnan Army, and Flying Tigers got together to discuss for more than two hours. Not to mention Zhuge Liang, even Sima Yi didn't get it out.On the contrary, many people clamored to give up the rescue altogether, and it would be more cost-effective to continue searching for survivors instead.

Seeing that the sun was high, he decided to eat first. Hong Tao handed over the team to Sun Jianshe, and he and the Flying Tigers borrowed a motorcycle and ran to the roof of the customs building.He was not willing to return home like this, and had to see the scene on the pier with his own eyes.

"Hey... You said that if you had joined the navy back then, you would be able to sail across the water now!"

After holding up the binoculars and looking at it for more than half an hour, my eyes are a little dazzled, but I still can't see any clues.Thinking of having to give up the 20 or so people on the boat, I feel extremely annoyed. Look at Zhong Wei on the left, forget it, let's vent my anger on Randy.

"I should be in the Air Force and specialize in flying helicopters, so I can airborne!" Randy is already familiar with this tone, knowing that if he doesn't speak, he will get nagged less, so he just said it.

As soon as Hong Tao mentioned the plane, he regretted it a bit. In fact, he can fly a helicopter. He fiddled a lot on the Mouse Superman back then, but the technology was not good, and he rarely flew alone.If I had worked harder and learned more back then, it would have really helped.

"Oh, what are you doing with it in broad daylight? Do you know how much this thing costs? You can't even afford it if you sell it!" But he is a leader, and he can't be speechless by his subordinates. He happened to see Zhong Wei put the helmet on Pull down the night vision goggles on the phone, well, it's you!

"Tch, what's so good, it doesn't even have a thermal imaging function!" Zhong Wei is not easy to mess with, she doesn't like this at all.

"...Thermal imaging... yes! Thermal imaging is good... Hahaha, girl, you have done a good job, and I will save you from hitting you a few times after I go back!" Hong Tao was depressed and kept silent. But the eyeballs were not idle, they turned around, suddenly slapped Zhong Wei on the shoulder, and smiled again.

"Crazy!" Zhong Wei was not only taken aback, but her shoulders still hurt, but she dared not speak out, and could only curse in a low voice.

"Hey, Captain Bai, ask the team members who knows where there is a thermal imaging equipment nearby... yes, the kind used at night... okay, I'm waiting... what? There are... oh oh oh in the cold storage , I understand! Captain Bai, don’t worry, the zombies here are indeed not easy to deal with. We are trying to find a way, and tomorrow will be the earliest... Okay, let’s stop talking, I’ll go find a thermal imager!"

Hong Tao didn't care about Zhong Wei's attitude, picked up the mobile phone, switched to the agreed channel, and chatted with the survivors on the bulk cargo ship. Know what this guy is going to do.

There will be thermal imaging equipment in the cold storage?It was also the first time Hong Tao had heard of it.However, there is a person on board who works in the cold storage. He said that large cold storages generally have this kind of equipment, which is used to find places where the cold storage leaks.

Hong Tao thought about it, and it seemed to make sense. Although it is called thermal imaging, it can also find out where the temperature is low.As for where is the cold storage, hehe, coincidence, the southeast corner of Jishugang Bridge is a large cold chain logistics company, a large cold storage!

I won’t go into details about the process of finding a thermal imager. In fact, Gao Tianyi and Yan Qiang didn’t want to give up the 20 people who were at their fingertips, but they were willing to try if they had a way.

Hearing that Hong Tao had a solution, he immediately sent someone to follow Pan Wenxiang to find equipment in the cold storage. The zombies nearby were really not enough for a dozen young men to kill.Soon he came back with three aluminum alloy suitcases. As soon as he opened the lids, he knew who was using them. It smelled very fishy.

The next step is the work of Hong Tao and Sun Jianshe, and others can only watch.The two of them used the tools carried in the car to dismantle two aluminum alloy boxes as materials. After drilling, cutting and hammering, they tossed for more than two hours to get out a few circles, and then put the thermal imager Fixed it under the drone.

"Captain Hong, are you going to use it to see zombies?" Most people didn't understand what Hong Tao was going to do, but Lu Yejiangnan seemed to have noticed something.

"Well, this set of equipment is of average grade, with low resolution, so you can't see it clearly during the daytime, so wait until it gets dark!" Hong Tao nodded, and he didn't stop, and gave another aluminum alloy case of the thermal imager to the camera. Disassembled, it seems that there is something to do again.

"This, I'm afraid it's not very useful... Daxia Yun has a set. It's useless to watch zombies. Those guys don't seem to heat themselves, and the temperature is about the same as the surrounding environment."

To say that Lu Yejiangnan is quite good at being a man, in order not to embarrass Hong Tao, he purposely moved closer to his side, and took the opportunity of passing a cigarette to light the fire, muttering in a low voice, for fear of being overheard by others.

"...Oh, you guys have done this experiment? Why didn't you say it before? This is also a characteristic of zombies, and you can get points!" Hong Tao listened to it, but he continued to work without stopping.

"...then you still want to go?" Lu Yejiangnan would never want to be underestimated if he was a human again, so I kindly reminded you, take my words as fart!

"The test is definitely not 100% successful, but as long as there is a 100% possibility, you have to make 10% efforts... In this way, you call Commander Gao and Captain Yan together and say that I have Announcement... about [-] minutes, I'm almost done here. Don't worry, you'll know what I'm going to do in a while!"

Hong Tao could also hear the change in his tone, but he was still reluctant to stop what he was doing, but he finally raised his head, made a mysterious arrangement, and pouted and winked at Lu Yejiangnan .

Living corpse!Twenty minutes later, in front of Gao Tianyi, Niu Dagui, Yu Fanqing, Yan Qiang, and Lu Yejiangnan, Hong Tao recounted in detail what happened to him at the Indian embassy, ​​focusing on the half-human, half-zombie monster. Given a name.

"...My mother, there is such a thing! It, it really eats human flesh?" Niu Dagui is worthy of a violent temper, as long as he hears about anything, he must be the first to express his opinion.It's just that the focus is usually different and particularly crooked.

"You mean there are living corpses on the pier, and it can command zombies!" Gao Tianyi was much smarter, and immediately understood what Hong Tao was thinking.In fact, he is indeed quite smart, otherwise he would not be able to balance the few materials he has.It is a little narrow-minded, which seriously affects the vision and thinking mode.

"No way... Then, wouldn't we be too dangerous!" On the surface, Yan Qiang looks rough and unshaven, but in fact he is very handsome and a very meticulous person.

The first thing he considered was safety. If this kind of thing called living corpse by Hong Tao could command the zombies, then with a howl, the zombies in half the city would rush over. Basically explained it!

"Brother Hong should have a way to deal with it, right?" Lu Yejiangnan is best at guessing people's hearts, and he has already seen that Hong Tao's hard work will not be in vain.

"I don't know whether it is a living corpse or not. It's just a guess. After dark, I will first use the drone to find its traces. If I can find it, I must kill it!"

"Everyone, it's not that I have a personal enmity with it. I really can't keep it. A few months ago, it just coexisted with zombies, but now it can command thousands of zombies. If it is allowed to develop freely, it will soon not be us who can We can handle it, no one wants to be suddenly surrounded by thousands of zombies, right!"

Regarding this matter, Hong Tao must first emphasize right and wrong, unify his thinking, don't really find out the target, some people want to run away and others want to stay, it would be too troublesome to quarrel among themselves.

"Fuck, fight with me!" Niu Dagui finally got to the point, and it seemed that he could figure out important issues.

Chapter 277 Bomber

"Let's go, what are you going to do with thousands of zombies? Chairman Hong and Captain Yan are not talking about the Pingnan Army's frustration. If that thing can really command zombies, it won't be effective even if we run out of bullets with our little manpower. .I think it’s better to send someone back to call for reinforcements, mainly to bring more bullets and guns. As long as the number of zombies on the pier does not increase, there is still hope.”

It's a pity that he has to be criticized if he is right. On the surface, Gao Tianyi does not object to killing living corpses, but he does not approve of going all out.In other words, he doesn't really believe Hong Tao's words. If it's just a story, the purpose is to let all the families fight out their manpower here, and the one who loses the most will be the Pingnan Army.

If there is such a possibility, who can say well.Looking at Hong Tao's consistent behavior style, it is definitely appropriate to describe him as scheming and extremely deep. When working with this kind of person, he must not let his guard down at all times.If you want to work hard, you can do it, everyone puts out all their wealth and fights together!

"Uh... Commander Gao is not unreasonable to be worried, this time the Flying Tigers didn't bring too much ammunition..."

Fortunately, Hong Tao had been vaccinated in advance, and Yan Qiang didn't really want to go all out for possible danger now.In other words, he didn't quite believe the possibility Hong Tao described, but he didn't want to object directly because of face.

"You two, don't be so nervous. What I just said is only if there is a high possibility that there are no living corpses. In that case, we have to find another way. Let's make a conclusion tomorrow morning whether there are any living corpses. One night to search carefully."

This kind of reaction, including Yan Qiang's shoulder slump, was expected by Hong Tao.Put yourself in their shoes, if you were in their shoes, you would probably be less likely to believe other people's unfounded stories.They are the leaders of a group, if they let the team members work hard casually, it would be too unqualified.

In fact, even Hong Tao himself didn't intend to really go all out, he just wanted to warm up, let everyone have a mental preparation first, don't make up your mind again after discovering the living corpse.As for how to find the living corpse and how to kill it, it depends on tonight.

Throughout the afternoon, Hong Tao kept torturing the logistics drone. First, he removed the camera from the gimbal and installed it on a strange-shaped aluminum alloy frame.Then I was still not satisfied, so I simply disassembled the three-axis gimbal, leaving only the control circuit and drive motor.

Gao Tian didn't have much interest in drones. He had been arranging people to explore nearby, marking the situation of each road on the map.And arranged a few long-range surveillance posts to closely monitor the movements of the nearby zombies, fearing that they would be surrounded by living zombies who could command the actions of the zombies.Although he didn't believe everything Hong Tao said, he didn't dare not believe it completely.

The Flying Tigers did not sing against the Peaceful Army this time, and actively invested in exploration and remote control work for their own safety.Relying on the advantages of motorcycles, he explored farther and faster, and even sent a pickup truck and three men to drive back along the high speed when they came, always paying attention to the safety of the back road.

"Jiangnan, can you see what he's doing?" But Yan Qiang and Lu Yejiangnan didn't leave, they kept staring at the drone and Hong Tao.

"He is using the driving motor as a winding shaft to retract the shoelace. I really don't know why the shelf below is used. It may be related to the thermal imager." The reason why Lu Yejiangnan became the Flying Tigers The logistics supervisor, in addition to having a set of management, also has a set of weak electricity.

The motorbike circuit in the team is faulty, and as long as there are spare parts, it can basically be repaired.The UAV modified by Hong Tao is not complicated. In principle, he can understand the principle at a glance, but he can't figure out what to use it for.

"Daxia Yun has played with this thing. I heard him say that thermal imaging infrared waves are useless to zombies. Those things don't even have body temperature, and it's hard to distinguish them from the surrounding environment. It's better to use a flashlight to take a clear picture. I guess the shelf below It’s not for installing a thermal imaging camera, so many reinforcement ribs have been reinforced back and forth, and the things to be installed must not be light.”

Yan Qiang inherited his father's craftsmanship, and is best at mechanical maintenance. Although he can't understand what the drone can do, he can calculate the weight of the goods only from the sturdiness of the aluminum alloy frame.

"Bomber!" Before dinner, the two of them finally exclaimed in unison, their eyes staring like buns.

The drone transformation project was finally completed. Hong Tao got into the saber-toothed tiger, and came out holding a cardboard box after a while. He squatted next to the drone, took out a green ball from the cardboard box, and fixed it on the aluminum alloy shelf... …

What is this small ball? Most people can recognize it at a glance, grenade!It is exactly the same as the two grenades hanging on the chests of the members of the rescue team, and there are eight of them, which happen to be stuck in the eight gaps of the aluminum alloy bracket, and then wrapped with iron wire to fix them.

Apparently, Hong Tao transformed this heavy-duty drone into a bomber, and planned to remotely control it to rush into the zombie crowd with eight grenades, and launch a fatal blow to the designated target.

As for the effect, as long as it can really make the grenade explode, the effect must be good.Unless the opponent is Monkey King, the explosive power of the eight grenades is enough to tear apart any kind of creature, and the elephant has to be brought down on the spot.

"Bah..." At this time, Hong Tao picked up the remote control again and moved the handle.The drive motor of the gimbal immediately rotated, driving a small aluminum alloy stick to rotate, and the shoelaces connected to the stick became shorter and shorter.

"do not……"

"Stop..." Yan Qiang and Lu Yejiangnan rushed out like rabbits in an instant, and they all rushed to the back of the saber-toothed tiger at the same time. Their movements must be called crisp and neat.

"Wow..." Just as the two of them landed on the ground and hadn't finished rolling sideways, there were a few light metal friction sounds in their ears.

"Brother Hong, next time you want to play this game, you'd better say hello in advance..." A few seconds later, the two came out from the back of the car helplessly, and made a serious protest while dusting off their clothes .

"Hey hey... as long as I find it, don't even try to run away! People can't get in, we still have planes, bombing drones!" There was no explosion as expected, and Hong Tao was snapping out the insurances one by one plug it back in.

Whether the driving motor can pull out the safety pin of the grenade is the key issue. In order to do this test, Hong Tao simply used live ammunition.But it doesn't matter, this kind of M67 grenade has double insurance, if you don't remove the wire clip, you can pull out the safety pin and it won't explode.

As soon as it got dark, Pan Wenxiang and Peng Hao flew two logistics drones at the same time, and the target was not the pier but the customs building.Hong Tao is on his way to the roof, this time he will be on the front line to direct the beheading operation.

The first drone to fly to the pier was a drone equipped with a night vision device. Due to the hasty modification and no suitable equipment and parts could be found, the night vision device had to be fixed directly below the camera of the drone. Send back the images from the night vision device.

The clarity is definitely not great, but it's more or less adequate.Hong Tao didn't want to carefully distinguish the appearance of zombies and living corpses. As long as he found a humanoid target with thermal energy, he didn't have to ask what it was. The bombing drone would fall from the sky in a few minutes.

Can night vision goggles be used to find living corpses?Theoretically, it should be possible. This is not Hong Tao's random guess, but the scientific appraisal result given by Dr. Fan and Engineer Wang.

They have carefully studied the tissue samples of living corpses brought back from the Indian embassy, ​​and have already obtained preliminary results.First of all, the body tissues of living corpses and zombies are completely different. The former is more like human beings. To put it bluntly, it has flesh and blood; the latter is simply fibrosis, but it is definitely not dead. It is more like some kind of plant tissue.

Secondly, according to normal reasoning, the living corpse should rely on food for energy intake, but its blood and tissues contain a component that the human body does not have, which is similar to, but not identical to, the components in the zombie's brain and nerve center.

As for what kind of ingredient this ingredient belongs to, a virus, a bacterium, or some kind of organism?The two experts are not sure yet, and more research is needed over time.

In the end, the two experts came to the conclusion with certainty that the culprit of human mutations was this ingredient. They reproduced very fast, and the drugs that could be found in the research institute had no effect on them.

At present, the two experts are looking for more drugs to investigate, and trying to find out what this ingredient is through genetic means, and then target it.

Chapter 278 Air Force Commander

Hong Tao made his judgment based on the research results of experts, and felt that the living corpse should have a body temperature.Since it has body temperature, it can be clearly distinguished from other zombies in front of the thermal imager.

"Damn it, that's it, this bastard really knows how to hide!" Facts have proved that relying on science is still very reliable. Just after the drone searched the central area of ​​the zombie group, there was an orange-yellow human silhouette on the screen. He was squatting on the ground, and he was very different from the blue-purple zombies around him.

"Captain Bai, Captain Bai, please answer..." When Hong Tao saw this figure, he immediately cursed through gritted teeth, and then picked up the walkie-talkie to call the people on the bulk ship.
