End of the World
Chapter 176 Ambush
Cameras can be used for duty, but since they come in a variety of styles, they do not have the ability to capture dynamic objects.
Lan Yuxuan spent a lot of time and effort writing a program, but the result was not very ideal. The program gave the camera a certain dynamic capture capability, but it was somewhat useless.
Because the camera does not have this function, the image is transmitted back to the computer for judgment by the program, and Lan Yuxuan is not an expert in this area.
Wu Bin knew that she had done her best and he had not assigned her such a task, so it was already very good that she could complete it on her own.
Placing the cameras outside can reduce a lot of personnel burden, which makes the staff on duty very happy.
There is no problem with the size of the vehicles. Zhao Bofeng designed the front plows of all vehicles to be adjustable and wrapped all the wheels with anti-skid chains, which took some time.
Nothing happened in the past two days, nothing unusual happened, and we didn't see those people again. Everything was normal nearby, and everyone was worried.
They will never give up, they must be planning something.
The good news is that we can leave tomorrow and the convoy will continue to head north. It will depend on the situation at that time. It would be great if we can reach the destination directly.
In the evening, Chen Haitao took the lead in keeping watch. After so many days, everyone had basically adapted to the weather, and everyone went into their warm beds early.
The winter night was very dark, and being on duty was not a pleasant thing, and several people were yawning.
It was almost midnight, and the sleepiness began to attack them madly. Making up for sleep during the day would definitely not be as comfortable as sleeping at night.
"Did you hear anything?" Chen Haitao seemed to sense movement in the darkness.
Qiao Xinghua's hearing was still good. After listening for a while, he did hear some sound.
"Jingle Bell!"
The north wind was howling, and the tripwire set up outside was triggered by something, making a crisp sound, most likely a zombie coming.
"You stay here, we'll go out and take a look!" Chen Haitao said to Li Xun, winked at Qiao Xinghua, took out his gun and walked out.
The night was very dark, and the two of them turned on their flashlights, otherwise they would not be able to see the road clearly.
"Wait!" Chen Haitao suddenly stopped, he sensed danger.
"What's wrong?" Qiao Xinghua immediately shone the flashlight around, but saw nothing.
There was a whistling sound from overhead, and when the light shone through, I saw a few large insects flapping their wings.
"Get down!" Chen Haitao shouted and pushed Qiao Xinghua to the other side.
The bugs launched an attack and sprayed acidic liquid onto the white snow, which couldn't withstand it and dissolved into a pit.
Qiao Xinghua felt grateful when he saw this, otherwise the thing would have flown directly over his head.
"Tu Tu Tu!"
The sound of gunfire broke the silence, and almost everyone was awakened from their dreams. They reflexively jumped out of bed and grabbed their guns.
"What's wrong?" Wu Bin ran down from the RV and asked Li Xun.
At this time, there were more gunshots. Without caring too much, they all ran out and saw two people shooting at the struggling corpse moth on the ground.
The growls of zombies could be heard from outside the city wall, and judging from the noise, there were quite a few of them.
Not knowing whether there were still corpse moths in the sky, no one dared to climb up the city wall.
"Let's go to the city wall and take a look!" Chen Guangjun and Chen Haitao volunteered.
"Okay, be careful!" Wu Bin led the others back.
"It was fine during the day, why are there so many zombies?" Dafeng said.
"I'm afraid it's those people who are causing trouble!" said Qiao Xinghua.
"Get ready to start!" Wu Bin said to Zhao Bofeng, he might not be able to survive tonight.
Zhao Bofeng and Wang Zhong then retreated to prepare for the journey.
"If possible, I would rather wait until daybreak before leaving!"
Everyone nodded in agreement that driving at midnight was too dangerous and who knows, those people might block the road.
There were more gunshots outside, definitely the two of them were exchanging fire with the bugs.
After a while, the two men came back in a slightly embarrassed state.
"I don't know where these zombies came from, they're almost filling up the ditch!"
Chen Guangjun's words made the atmosphere tense. There were nearly ten thousand zombies that could fill the ditch.
"And there are also mutated zombies!" Chen Haitao said, this is the most troublesome thing.
There are corpse moths in the sky, so we cannot climb up the city walls to stop the zombies.
"Bugs are troublesome, but if used well they can provide us with cover!"
"cover?"
After hearing Wu Bin's words, everyone was confused. Where did this come from?
"The bugs don't distinguish between friend and foe. I guess they didn't expect this. This should be an unexpected factor!" Wu Bin said.
Chen Guangjun reacted and understood Wu Bin's idea. If they retreated, they would probably be ambushed by those people. Maybe they had calculated this step.
"You're right. When we're in the car, the threat posed by insects is very limited!" Chen Guangjun agreed.
Even whether they can retreat safely depends on the performance of the bugs. If those people really ambush them halfway, the bugs can effectively restrain them, even if they cannot destroy them.
"Each car must follow the car in front closely. The other side has guns. Be careful to protect yourself!" Wu Bin gave repeated instructions. There were too many zombies and it became meaningless to hold on.
There were too many vehicles in the convoy, and the luxury of having one vehicle for each person meant that covering fire was impossible.
Everyone returned to their cars, and the first car started up. The roar of the car echoed in the greenhouse, and the others started up soon after, and the sound finally spread outside.
The silence of the night was completely broken by the sound of the car, causing a commotion among the zombies, who were temporarily blocked by the ice wall.
Led by the infantry fighting vehicles, the gate was a temporary iron fence, which the infantry fighting vehicles easily knocked away. The camp was close to the highway, and they rushed onto the highway through the gap one after another.
The zombies besieging the camp turned around one after another. Except for the mutated zombies, ordinary zombies could hardly keep up with the speed of the convoy.
There was snow and ice on the highway, so the convoy dared not drive fast. Fortunately, all the heavy vehicles were equipped with anti-skid chains, so they were able to drive normally.
Light vehicles, such as ambulances, have some slipping wheels and can only follow the ruts of the vehicle in front.
The corpse moths in the night sky followed the convoy closely and circled overhead. Wu Bin was afraid that they would not follow, so he modified and reinforced the vehicles.
On the highway late at night, there were many swaying figures towards the lights. Wu Bin was very sure that there was no large group of zombies nearby, and he didn't know where so many of them came from.
"Boom!"
There were constant dull noises coming from the car body, and almost every second a zombie came into close contact with the vehicle.
"Each vehicle reports the situation!"
"The lead car is normal!"
"The tail car is normal!"
The convoy's speed was about 30 to 40 km/h, which was considered fast in the dark night. The infantry fighting vehicles accelerated and rushed to a place not far ahead of the convoy.
There were more and more zombies, and the infantry fighting vehicle brought back bad news: the road ahead was blocked and two trailers overturned in the middle of the road.
According to Chen Guangjun's observation, there were new traces around, which must have been done intentionally by someone for revenge.
There are also many zombies on the highway, so it is unrealistic to unload the excavator.
"The road is blocked, turn around immediately!"
After receiving the signal from the infantry fighting vehicle, the convoy slowed down.
"Brother Bin, I see a road next to the highway. If we can break through the guardrail!" Qiao Xinghua grabbed the walkie-talkie and said.
Wu Bin didn't say anything, but Chen Guangjun's voice came.
"I feel like there's something fishy going on. Maybe it's deliberate!"
"Is there any better way?" Wu Bin asked after a moment of silence. The trucks in the convoy were all large and inflexible, and they couldn't turn around on the highway.
"Attention all cars, we are rushing down!"
The Manka RV adjusted its angle and used the shovel plow modified on the front of the car to impact the guardrail. The highway guardrail was not very strong and a gap was soon created by it.
"Wait, I'll get off first!" The infantry fighting vehicle rushed to the front.
There is a height difference of nearly three meters between the highway and this road. The infantry fighting vehicle went down easily, but it was difficult for the three tractors with carriages attached in the team.
Scania tried it first. Its carriage was the lightest, and although it looked heart-wrenching, it was relatively easy to drive down.
Following them was a tanker semi-trailer driven by Li Xun. The truck was too heavy, carrying thirty or forty tons of diesel. Plus, Li Xun was a novice, so it was the perfect combination.
The trailer was driving down from above at an angle. There was ice and snow on the ground. When the rear wheels of the trailer reached the small slope, they slid sideways. Li Xun immediately did not dare to move.
The car slid to the curb and stopped. Fortunately, it was only a small slope of two or three meters, so it did not overturn.
The last one was Wang Zhong’s excavator carrier truck. Everyone was nervous because although the excavator was fixed on it, its center of gravity was higher than the previous two trucks.
The car body also slid down, but fortunately it did not roll over. Even the most difficult car was able to go down, and it was even easier for other cars to go down the slope.
The convoy turned onto the small road, which meant there was no turning back and they didn't know what traps lay ahead.
Chen Guangjun, who was driving the infantry fighting vehicle, was very cautious. All the reconnaissance or sensors on the vehicle were turned on and he received feedback quickly.
The instrument detected human heat sources on both sides of the road ahead, several hundred meters away.
It's winter, the temperature around is below zero, and the zombies' body temperature is also close to zero. In this environment, thermal imaging equipment is particularly sensitive.
The infantry fighting vehicle stopped with a squeak, and Chen Guangjun turned to the turret. There were still some machine gun shells left, but he had been reluctant to use them.
"Captain, there's something going on. There should be an ambush ahead!"
The convoy changed its formation, and except for the Sabretooth Tiger, all other hard vehicles rushed to the front.
Wu Bin knew it was time to ditch a vehicle, and it could only be the Sinotruk HOWO fire truck he was driving.
"Yuxin, stop for a moment, you can go to Jun brother later!"
He Yuxin opened the door and let Wu Bin get in. She nodded. She was more familiar with the operation of the infantry fighting vehicle, otherwise Wu Bin would have gone by himself.
"Boom-boom-boom!"
The infantry fighting vehicles opened fire, the shells whizzed away, and screams were immediately heard. They did not expect to be exposed so quickly.
There was fire counterattack on both sides of the road, but it had little effect. The ones engaging in the firefight were infantry fighting vehicles.
"call out-"
There was a sound from the sky, and a huge object fell down with a "clang". It turned out to be a liquefied gas tank.
"boom!"
The liquefied gas tank had been tampered with by them and exploded within seconds of landing. A huge fireball rose up and the surroundings became as bright as day in an instant.
Chen Guangjun on the infantry fighting vehicle was slightly shaken, fortunately they missed the target, but they still heard fragments hitting the body of the vehicle.
These people are also very powerful. They have wrapped a lot of steel balls or steel nails, and even porcelain pieces, around the gas tank. When the gas tank explodes, it will be a huge fragmentation bomb.
Whether it is a human or a zombie, it can have an excellent killing effect.
