After getting off the wall, Li Yu twisted his neck, which felt a bit sore but satisfying, and it made cracking sounds.
Li Yu saw Da Pao, who had also gotten off the wall, making the same movement, and the two of them exchanged smiles.
The heavy rain wasn't falling in just one place, nor was the zombie horde only on Li Yu's side.
You should know that the more people there are, the larger the zombie horde.
Generally, there would be more supplies in a county town, but similarly, there would be more zombies in a county town than in the wild.
To the north of the base, in the City Center, there was an organization of several hundred people. Li Yu and the others had visited this organization before and even found his second uncle and others there.
Liberation City, at the Liberation City gate.
Below that large iron gate were densely packed zombies. It was only because the gate was built very sturdily when they first made it that it could withstand these zombies.
However, their Liberation City was originally built in the City Center. Normally, without heavy rain, it was fine, and there weren't many zombies.
But this Liberation City wasn't completely sealed by walls; there were still gaps in many small corners.
Specifically, at the back gate, because it was close to the river, zombies were not afraid of water and crossed directly from the river.
At this moment, Director Zhang stood on the rooftop, his face full of worry, looking at the zombies downstairs. Everyone was standing on the second floor, behind the large iron gate, constantly stabbing and killing zombies through the gaps. But this large iron gate, after countless reinforcements, had just been feared to be breached. They even parked two cars to block the gate.
However, this gate still looked like it wouldn't hold out for much longer.
When it rains, it pours. Just as he was at his wit's end, bang!
The door was suddenly pushed open, and a person entered, completely drenched, with a look of panic and unease.
"Director Zhang, we have a large wave of zombies, about a hundred of them, pouring out from the back gate. They came from the back gate, and we can't block them anymore!"
"What!? Where are Captain Lü and his people? Where are they? Weren't they watching over there?"
"Captain Lü, Captain Lü is still resisting the zombies at the back gate, but there are simply too many zombies, and we can't hold them back anymore."
The feeling of irritation in Director Zhang's heart grew stronger. Among the forces on his side, although there were several hundred people, when these people were allowed in, no one was considered; they could simply enter without any conditions.
Although the population increased, the team was mixed with various types of people, and their intentions varied. It was difficult to unite them, and even when facing such a heavy rain and zombie horde, many couldn't be called to resist.
You should know that if the main gate is breached, everyone will die!
Even facing this situation, many people were still waiting for others to go first. They hid behind, everyone waiting for someone else, which led to a very slow mobilization speed.
This formed a situation where three monks had no water to drink.
Even with several hundred people, the usable force was still less than 80 people.
People are selfish, and on Director Zhang's side, there were even some slackers.
Bang!
Another sound of a door being pushed open. It seemed that due to the heavy rain and the pressure of the zombie siege, no one dared to knock on the door; they all just barged directly into Director Zhang's room.
"Director Zhang, in the left district, at Building 2, a fight broke out because some people were snatching food from others, and now a fight has erupted! They've started fighting! And some men ran into the women's area and started... Really, everything is in chaos, in chaos!" The person who entered, looking flustered and drenched in rain, rushed to tell Director Zhang.
"They've started fighting? What time is it now!!! Damn it! Are they really full?" Director Zhang's anger was uncontrollable. He had always believed in fairness and creating a relaxed group environment, so his management was not too strict.
He never expected that at such a critical moment of life and death, some people would still be fighting, and some would even think that the base definitely couldn't be held, so they might as well have some fun before dying.
Director Zhang, hearing this news, swayed where he stood.
He felt dizzy and lightheaded.
He had not expected that with the arrival of the zombie horde, their team would become so disorganized.
Suddenly, Director Zhang's heart hardened. He saw the long knife on the wall, so he called a few people who were still around, gathered twenty people, and walked towards the left district.
This time, he was going to clean up.
If these people had so much energy, then he would send them to fight the zombies, to be at the very front.
In Liberation City, some people at the front gate had been resisting for 14 hours, but no one had come to relieve them. Everything seemed chaotic and disorganized.
Meanwhile, at the back gate, Captain Lü was leading nearly 40 people, resisting the zombies that had surged up from the river outside the back gate. However, during this resistance, several people were directly bitten in the neck by zombies.
But Captain Lü's people had, after all, survived in the apocalypse for a long time, and their experience in killing zombies was relatively rich. Although their numbers were not as great as the zombies, they still showed an overwhelming advantage.
Some people had no protection, and if they weren't careful, they would be bitten and infected by zombies.
This was a brutal battle.
It's unknown how much longer Director Zhang and his team can hold out in this battle.
And here, at Li Yu's base.
Thanks to the strength of the walls, the convenience of equipment, and the unity of the personnel.
Although they also faced the impact of zombies, everything was orderly.
Everyone was using their strength to maintain the normal operation of the base and protect it!
Rules and regulations were clear, tasks were assigned by person, positions were rotated, and everything was fair and just.
They worked in three shifts, with everyone having time to rest. The most commendable thing was that, even in this situation facing a zombie horde,
Li Yu and his team were still eating hot meals!
This rain was very heavy. After Li Hang finished dealing with the hydroelectric generator, he returned to the villa.
Li Yu was eating with Da Pao. Since the food was cooked by his aunt and grandmother, the taste was relatively light and nourishing.
As Li Yu ate, he suddenly remembered that there was some Hubang chili sauce in the warehouse, so he asked Li Hang to go down and get two jars. Eating spicy food made the meal more enjoyable.
Feeling a slight twitch in his brow, Li Yu felt that his sleep had indeed been much worse recently. Seeing Da Pao across from him, gnawing on corn, an idea came to him.
He took out half a catty of loose white liquor from the cabinet. It was raining heavily, the temperature was dropping, and he had exerted a lot of physical effort, making his muscles sore all over.
Drinking a bit would help him sleep later.
Sometimes, a slightly tipsy state makes it easier to fall asleep.
Da Pao saw Li Yu take out the loose white liquor, and his mouth spread into a smile as he said, "Let's have a couple of drinks. I'll take a shower and go to sleep later. I've used up too much energy today."
Li Yu nodded.
He poured the liquor, drawing a line of alcohol, and clinked glasses with Da Pao.
A sip, a smack, a sigh.
Refreshing!
He ate two more bites of sour and crispy shredded cabbage, which was fresh, tender, and smooth.
The richness of the white liquor combined with the taste of the dish, forming a unique delicacy.
A feast for the taste buds, this was a rare enjoyment in life, stealing a moment of leisure in the midst of busyness, drinking two cups of wine.
With this back and forth, Li Yu and Da Pao finished the half catty of loose white liquor.
A quantity of two or three liang, just a hint of drunkenness, slightly tipsy.
After drinking, Li Yu went upstairs, his body feeling slightly warm. He took a shower, washing away the chill he had unknowingly accumulated from being drenched in rain for several hours today.
His body also relaxed, and he felt lazy all over.
Then he comfortably lay down in the cool, dry, and suitably warm covers.
He quickly fell into a dream.
