During the next period, Ruan Wenchang felt like he lived like a walking zombie, without any soul.

Fighting every day, ranging from dozens to hundreds of people. The military distributed weapons and ammunition to the refugees, and the soldiers drove trucks to drive armed refugees to attack the abandoned cities. No matter how many troops were invested, the ending was always failed. Those zombies who were originally humans did not know what pain was, and the bullets were at all unconscious. They were a group of unyielding monsters. The remaining creatures instincts were to eat people, but they just hugged other living creatures and bit them at all costs.

It was not until a long time later that Ruan Wenchang realized that the only weakness of zombies is the head.

Compared with zombies, the military's high-pressure policy is truly unbearable pain. Every day, refugees who refuse to obey orders are killed, and broken corpses are everywhere inside and outside the barracks. They are dressed in rags and die miserably. Due to the hot weather, the corpses rot quickly, and the air is filled with strong stench. The corpses that are unrestrained are abandoned at will. They are quickly occupied by mosquitoes and flies, and the surface of the remains of the corpse is covered with dense white fat maggots. The number of them is so large that it makes people's scalp numb, and even the birds who like insects are far away from them.

Ruan Wenchang saw with his own eyes that a gluttonous crow accidentally tripped by a maggot climbing along his feet because he flew close to a rotten corpse and pecked at the maggots. The poor crow was immediately submerged by hundreds of maggots. The fat, white and greasy insects arched on the crow's body, and their soft mouths could not chew on the crow's body. However, they pressed the crow down with an extremely large number and suffocated. Then, they silently waited for the black bird to rot and become their new meat.

If we just fight against zombies, the cruel and harsh environment can barely endure it. However, the enemies that refugees need to face are not only viruses, but also soldiers who should have protected themselves but stood opposite to disasters and deaths.

The number of soldiers in the military camp was not large, about nearly a thousand. They ruled tens of thousands of refugees. There was very little food and water distributed, and many women were summoned to the camp for fun every day. Because the refugees were all marshalled and supervised each other in a joint manner, once someone fled, the remaining members of the same group would be punished. In this case, the situation could only get worse and worse, and people gradually lost confidence in topics such as "victory".

The reason for the riot was caused by a captain's abuse of a pregnant woman after drinking. He drove into the refugee camp in a drunken manner, found a pregnant woman, broke through the abdomen with a dagger, picked out a six- or seven-month-old baby, and then drove away excitedly.

This brutal and cruel practice completely shocked the onlookers nearby. The refugees inquired and spread the news, and through their own different channels, they finally confirmed that the captain's practice was actually intentional - he drank with others that day, but did not have enough food to serve. In boredom, he suddenly had the idea of ​​braised baby meat. It is said that a total of six soldiers participated in the party that day. They shared the pot of fresh stewed meat. No one felt uncomfortable, and no one vomited, but they agreed that the pot of meat was delicious and delicious.

The pregnant woman's husband brought a lot of large pieces of firewood, put it into a corpse burning rack, and placed the body of his wife with a hole in her belly on the firewood pile. During this process, as many as tens of thousands of refugees gathered from all directions. People stood around, watching the silent man lit the firewood pile with a torch, and watched the unrecognizable corpse burned to charred deep in the flames, and the oil overflowed from the surface of the corpse to the surface of the burning firewood, making a "sizzling" sound.

No one took the lead, nor did they make excitement. When the husband of the deceased picked up the assault rifle and walked slowly to the barracks with a godless face, almost all the refugees followed. People held weapons in their hands and pulled the trigger at every target they thought was worth shooting and hated.

In this way, in just one night, the seemingly solid rule completely collapsed.

Nguyen Wenchang escaped near Wenqing and built a simple shack beside the Red River. His previous nightmare experience left him no longer thinking of seeking refuge in the northern powers. After all, Nguyen Wenchang received higher education. He analyzed the known situations and believed that this was a global disaster, not a crisis specifically targeting a country in Vietnam. In this case, staying here may be safer than going to a foreign country. At least, I am very familiar with my hometown and don’t have to worry about food and water.

Gradually, more and more refugees settled by the river. In addition to the fugitives in their own country, there are also some strangers who are emphasized by foreign countries in the north. They are very friendly and everyone has great skills in troubled times. Next to Ruan Wenchang's shack, there is a pair of brothers speaking Chinese. The older brother is a doctor and the younger brother is a skilled mechanical repairman. With a few simple daily conversations, they quickly integrated into the huge refugee group and gradually became indispensable. They were gradually recognized and even respected by many refugees.

Ruan Wenchang once suspected that these two people might be Chinese spies. Later, he found that his idea was wrong. The other party had never promoted anything about national sovereignty. Like ordinary refugees, they were busy with food and clothing every day. The doctors treated patients with herbs, and simple surgical bandages were OK, but major surgery was absolutely not possible. Due to the lack of medical equipment, the doctor even used a kitchen knife to perform a cesarean section on a patient who diagnosed acute appendicitis. Although no human life was caused, Ruan Wenchang was the party secretary in the hospital for half a year. With his eyes, it was not difficult to see that the patient actually suffered from gastroenteritis and did not need to be removed in vain.

They are very enthusiastic about the refugees around them.

Gradually, more and more Chinese speakers began to appear. This surprised Nguyen Van Chang. Because those people, like themselves, were once Vietnamese citizens. Nguyen Van Chang subconsciously believed that they were language learning to deepen their understanding. It was not until one day when the doctor found himself and took out a tube of injection with a smile that Nguyen Van Chang's world really changed.

Only the "worker bees" will actively learn Chinese. When they are members of the same ethnic group, the speed of language assimilation is extremely fast and not as difficult as imagined.

Liao Qiu is the highest commander of Xin'an Pei Base City. Of course, the name "Xin'an Pei" is currently only found in the confidential archives of the 505th Army. There are no similar records at home or abroad.

Starting from the initial decision to send "worker bees" to build a "new bees", more than 700 "worker bees" entered Vietnam. The special strengthening of physique allows them to protect themselves when they encounter danger, and close contact can support each other in difficult times. Instead of choosing large cities with dense populations, these advanced "worker bees" have established a development base with vast villages, and attracted a sufficient number of refugees with food, drinking water and safety, and then gradually transformed their consciousness.

This is a process of doubling at a geometric speed. Especially after the conversion of Vietnamese civilians like Nguyen Wenchang reaches a certain number, the expansion progress of the newly built "bee swarm" will also increase rapidly. By the time Liao Qiu led the newly formed 70 Pei across the border, the railway line between the important city Yuechi and the domestic railway line was unobstructed. Nguyen Wenchang even formed an engineering team of more than 20,000 people and began to build the city wall near the scheduled Xin'an Pei base. When Liao Qiu's troops arrived, complete primary defense fortifications had been established in just one week.

Ruan Wenchang does not think that his behavior is treason. He does not want to die, he must live. Subconsciously, Ruan Wenchang, who became a "worker bee", has already developed a strong sense of identity with the "Queen Bee". In the face of this kind of indoctrination of thinking that is simply dominated by biological information, many inherent ideas of human beings collapsed. Instead, it is an unprecedented strong collective consciousness and an individual's desire to contribute to the collective.

There are more and more refugees gathering near the Xin'an Pei Base. According to statistics in a week, the number of new refugees has exceeded 60,000. How to deal with these people has become the primary problem that Ruan Wenchang and Liao Qiu must solve.

"Let them move to the north as much as possible."

Liao Qiu threw away the banana peel in his hand, stood up, paced back and forth in the room, and said seriously: "In the Mengdong and Qinghu (Vietnam city), there are two base cities under construction. With sufficient job opportunities, the speed of consciousness will be changed faster. In addition, we must strengthen the screening of these people, and resolutely eliminate those who resist too strongly, so there is no need to waste time on them."

Ruan Wenchang nodded and said with concern: "We manage the people differently from your country. Although they are all military forces, we require civilians to absolutely obey the military's orders and everyone must be incorporated into the armed forces. This kind of paramilitary management has great restrictions on the personal freedom of refugees. The stationed troops are actually residential areas. If you want to get more refugees, you must exchange fire with the army, and may even trigger war."

"war?"

These words made Liao Qiu laugh: "Isn't it the war now? The war between humans and viruses, biological warfare."

Ruan Wenchang also laughed awkwardly. After all, he is a Vietnamese. Although he has been transformed into a "worker bee", some of his consciousness remains in the past, and he still has the limitation of fixed thinking to consider problems.

"Conflict is inevitable. Our purpose is to expand. Of course, to apply specific terms in peacetime, it is aggression."

Liao Qiu smiled faintly, his face was always full of confidence: "There are not many defensive facilities around Hanoi, so we can open the railway to Haipong in a short period of time. If the progress goes well, maybe we can also reach Danang."

In Myanmar, west of Myitkyina, close to the Chindun River.

More than a dozen trucks covered in dirt and dust came from a distance. Although they were driving on the road, the asphalt road was already broken due to the long-term unmanaged roads, and many locations were bumpy, and even low-grade dirt roads paved with earth and rocks were not as good as those of the low-grade dirt roads. The tires rolled over the hard surface of the stones, which always emitted a tiny-scausing friction. The engine was wailing in constant bumps, like a dying asthma patient.

Through the dense bushes, outside a newly built town with tall walls, the convoy slowly stopped

Dozens of fully armed soldiers jumped out of the car. They were wearing very shabby gray-green military uniforms on the upper body, and underneath were military shorts that had not yet reached their knees. The shoes on their feet were varied and all kinds of brands. At first glance, they looked very strange, not like soldiers, but like a group of armed refugees.

A tall middle-aged man jumped out of the cab of the truck in the lead. Judging from the style of the military uniform and the epaulette, he should be an officer and the leader of this group of people. The high-intensity sunlight made his skin dark and there was a lot of greasy dirt on the surface. However, his muscles were quite strong, with blocky chest muscles exposed in the middle of the collar of the military uniform, and the joints of the knees and hands were extremely thick, full of intimidating power.

They are all soldiers from Myanmar.

The town in front of me is obviously different from other places. The walls more than five meters high surround the entire town, and the middle and lower sections of the walls are surrounded by dense wire mesh. There are sand turrets in the corner next to the city gate, and powerful joint cannons are built inside. This thing has a terrible caliber, which can smash people into two pieces with just one shot. No veterans are willing to approach, and they have never had the idea of ​​becoming enemies with those who are stationed in the town.

The weather is so hot.

The officer wiped sweat from his forehead, took off his coat a few times, and bared his upper body. Perhaps he felt that doing so would indeed lose his identity, so he thought for a moment, and put on his coat, but he didn't tie the buttons. At the same time, he took out a pack of wrinkled cigarettes from his shirt pocket, took out one to light it, and sucked it in big mouthfuls.

The city gate in the distance opened, and about twenty or thirty people walked out. Judging from the clothes they were wearing, they should be all civilians. They held assault rifles in their hands and walked slowly towards the position where the convoy was parked.

A virus crisis also broke out in Myanmar. The officers and their soldiers were survivors. They took advantage of the chaos to transport a lot of weapons and supplies from military warehouses and established new strongholds in the field. At that time, there were more than 100 officers under them.

It is said that it is a stronghold, but it is actually a sparsely populated village. After one-third of his subordinates, the officer finally killed dozens of zombies in the village. Due to the lack of building materials, he could only use the simplest method to dig a trench along the village to prevent zombies. Those damn mutant creatures will not run or jump. When encountering obstacles such as ditches and pits, they will only fall in a foolish way. Although they will not fall to death, they cannot climb out. By dawn, the patrol personnel found out that they would shoot the head and be done.

These happened two years ago.

Zombies have evolved into mutated creatures. They never leave abandoned cities. As long as people don’t go in to harass them, they will not take the initiative to run out to eat people. The balance between humans and monsters becomes subtle. However, whenever the moon is full or on the New Year Festival, many refugees, including officers, will silently look towards the abandoned city in the distance, Myitkyina.

The regime of Myanmar still exists. As long as you keep going south, there is a huge base city to the southwest of the capital Mandalay, between the abandoned cities of Minjian and Taung Chi.

Of course the officer has a name, his name is Sonai.

Among the many fugitives, Sonai was considered a very eye-catching figure. He established defenses near the village and built a radio station with existing equipment. Just the second month after the outbreak of the virus, Sonai's troops received information from the New Mandalay base city.

It was a very short communication. The content was just to ask people and troops scattered around to report their respective locations and to move closer to the base city to the south.

In the eyes of Sono at that time, this mission was undoubtedly impossible to carry out. He only had more than a hundred soldiers, and his weapons and ammunition were barely enough. Once he encountered zombies in the wild, he would commit suicide.

Sono refused the order from the base city. He roared in the microphone and vented his anger. At that time, Sono didn't know that this was a global disaster, and only thought that the government was messing with biological experiments and created so many human-eating monsters.

From then on, Sona's troops were completely removed from the list of "military strongholds" of the Myanmar military. It was not until a year later that he learned from several exiled soldiers that if he had gone to the New Mandalay base as ordered at that time, he would have become a formally recognized soldier. The most important thing was to obtain first-level fortification potion.

The agent is not unique to China. In order to deal with the global virus disaster, the core countries had agreed to disclose the formula of first-level enhancement agents and immune agents after the outbreak of the virus. Of course, the production of other countries, the specific distribution situation, and the daily ration of civilians, etc. are the issues that each company cares about.

The people who walked out of the town were getting closer and closer, and they could see the other person's face clearly.

The leader is a thin and tall man. He doesn't seem to laugh and always keeps a cold and rigid look.

Sonai knew very well that these people were not their Burmese compatriots at all. They were aliens outside the eastern country. Although they were both yellow-skinned and dark-eyed, they spoke Chinese, but they spoke Chinese in the local language of Shan State in Burmese.

Although the other party was wearing civilian clothes, it was obvious from his walking and various movements that they were all soldiers. For example, now, they have always maintained a scattered line since they left the town. Two or three people were in a group, and they always rely on various obstacles to form a cover between marching. Usually, these traces can only be seen in veterans and elite troops.

In addition, the weapon in the other party's hand is the best proof.

Sonai had never seen a 9mm assault rifle. He was a soldier and knew very well what the enlarged weapon caliber meant. The most terrifying thing was that those assault rifles were obviously not privately modified goods, but mass-produced standard weapons.

In addition, there is one of the most obvious features.

They are all reinforcers.
