Before Zhao Yu could take action, a burst of gunfire rang out in the village.
Immediately afterwards, the two off-road vehicles in the front row were beaten into pieces.
"Retreat!"
Zhao Yu shouted quickly.
The entire convoy quickly retreated, retreated more than a hundred meters to a gentle slope, avoiding the opponent's fire zone, and then stopped.
After some counting, five people were injured and no one died.
"Damn, before I even took action, they shot first!"
Zhao Yu didn't expect that the people in this village were so courageous. He even ripped off the tiger skin of Luwei Group, and the other party dared to shoot.
This taught him a lesson. In the wilderness, the reputation of a powerful force is not easy to use, and there are mobs everywhere.
Zhao Yu took out the 16x scope and observed the stockade again. He found that the protective walls outside the stockade were all built by cutting down trees on the spot.
There are some gaps between the wood and the wood. It is through here that the people in the village stick out their guns and shoot outward.
Looking at the stockade built against the mountain in the distance, Zhao Yu ordered a few soldiers and ordered them to look around to see if there were any other routes into the stockade.
Immediately afterwards, he called for a special forces soldier, Xiaolong, and asked: "At this distance, can you shoot down those two people?"
Xiaolong looked in the direction of his finger. On the two towers inside the village gate, two gunmen were aiming condescendingly at this side. They kept firing, and bullets would explode where they were hiding from time to time. p>
"Report, the distance is too far, if you have a sniper rifle, you can do it..."
Sniper rifle...
Zhao Yu was stunned for a moment. In the arsenal of the base, sniper rifles could already be redeemed, but he never thought about it and never redeemed one.
On the contrary, he made a lot of multiple scopes for sniper rifles and used them as telescopes on weekdays.
Zhao Yu raised the 16x scope in his hand and said, "Can I add a 16x scope to the rifle?"
"Sir, the barrel of the rifle we use is too short..."
After hearing Xiaolong's explanation, Zhao Yu realized that the rifle could also be used as a sniper rifle, but it had to use old-style rifles, such as Mauser 98k, m1903 rifles, etc. During World War II, these weapons had to be removed from the sight.
A scope is a rifle, and a scope is a sniper rifle.
But correspondingly, being able to use it dually also means that it is not specialized enough, and its power, accuracy and stability are lacking.
The rifles used by his soldiers are all specialized rifles and were not designed to be used as sniper rifles.
Zhao Yu frowned, looking at the closed village gate in the distance, he could still hear bursts of ridicule.
"If there were cannons, it would be easier to shoot..."
Zhao Yu never thought that one day he would go to war with human forces. All arms and weapons were designed to deal with alien species, zombies and other monsters.
This made him secretly determined that when he went back in the future, he must develop some arms and weapons in all aspects.
After thinking for a moment, he didn't think of how to attack the village. The most powerful weapon he was carrying at the moment was a machine gun, but it seemed useless against the thick wooden walls.
After a while, several soldiers who went out for reconnaissance returned and told Zhao Yu some bad news.
This village is surrounded by mountains on three sides and is easy to defend but difficult to attack. If you want to enter, you can only enter from the front.
"It seems that some sacrifices have to be made!"
After thinking about it, the only way Zhao Yu could think of was to abandon some soldiers and a few off-road vehicles and rush in directly.
Seeing this, he no longer hesitated and quickly ordered six conscripts to drive up to the front in off-road vehicles, while the others followed behind the five vehicles.
"Forward!"
Although the six mobilized soldiers were not afraid of death, under Zhao Yu's instructions, they still leaned down and hid their heads in the passenger seat to prevent premature headshots.
Soon, the six cars began to rush forward, and correspondingly, the village also began to fiercely attack.
There was a loud crackling sound, the windows of the six off-road vehicles were shattered all over the floor, and everything in the vehicles was also shattered.
Several conscripts in the driver's seat were also shot several times in the hail of bullets, but fortunately, they held the gun in front of their heads, which meant that they could continue to execute the mission even if the chips in their heads were not exploded.
Command.
"No. 1, step on the accelerator and rush in!"
Zhao Yu stayed in the crowd and listened to the burst of gunfire, especially the soldiers on the periphery who were shot constantly. If they had not felt pain, they would have started screaming.
Suddenly, an off-road vehicle nearby increased its speed and rushed towards the village.
At the same time, the gunfire coming from the direction of the village became more intense, and the mobilization soldiers on the No. 1 car were riddled with holes. However, he carried out Zhao Yu's orders meticulously, and successfully escaped before his head was blown.
Knocked open the village gate.
Zhao Yu suddenly felt the pressure around him lighten, "Speed up and charge!"
The five cars in front of me also accelerated at the same time.
He regretted a little at this moment. He would have stayed behind if he had known earlier, but now he had no way out and could only rush in.
He didn't know what was going on ahead, and he didn't dare to look up, but orders had been given to the soldiers in advance to kill all enemies.
"Peng~!" "Peng~!" "Peng~!" After several collisions, all five off-road vehicles crashed into the wall of the village.
Zhao Yu leaned closely behind the car and ordered: "Charge, fight in!"
As the soldiers rushed into the village, the pressure around Zhao Yu suddenly eased, and no one fired in his direction.
This made him breathe a sigh of relief, took out the mirror, and took a look at the situation inside the village through reflection.
Fire was flying everywhere, people kept falling down, and the scene was more chaotic than imagined.
"Menghu, you go and remove the machine gun from the car and go in to support..."
Zhao Yu was worried that his side would not win, so he directly asked four special forces Menghu to go in with machine guns to support.
Until now, Zhao Yu was a little surprised and had doubts about his commanding ability.
If it were a professional person, maybe he could be more organized?!
Zhao Yu shook his head. He was just an ordinary person. He had no experience in such a war, but he should be fine next time.
If there is a next time, he will definitely use firepower to clear the way. All kinds of mortars and rocket launchers are arranged, and he will never risk going to the front line himself.
"Crazy!"
"They are all crazy!"
In the stockade, Li Dazhuang hid behind a bunker and looked at the soldiers rushing in from the door. He felt that these people were all madmen.
He saw with his own eyes that several soldiers were shot several times, but they continued to fight back as if they couldn't feel the pain.
What made him even more dizzy was that after one of his men was shot, he basically lost his combat power and lay on the ground wailing.
But the person on the other side continued to attack after being injured.
In just a few dozen seconds, seventy or eighty people fell on his side, and only a dozen people on the opposite side were actually lying on the ground completely motionless.
The rest of the people, no matter how many times they were shot, were still resisting, and every shot was extremely accurate.
"Damn, there's something wrong with these people, they're definitely in trouble!"
Until now, Li Dazhuang still doesn't understand that the soldiers on the other side are not ordinary soldiers, and all of them are brave and unafraid of death.
"Brother, I can't do it anymore, run away..."
The dog-headed military advisor made a short observation and came to the conclusion that although they had many people, they would definitely lose in the end.
"Withdraw!"
Li Dazhuang no longer cared about his dignity, and hurriedly retreated under the cover of a few confidants.
The bosses all retreated. Seeing this, the others naturally lost their intention to resist. Many people immediately dropped their weapons and shouted to surrender.
Upon hearing the movement, Zhao Yu quickly ordered, "Those who surrender and put down their weapons will not be killed!"
He still understands this basic art of war. If he kills even those who surrender, isn't that forcing them to fight to the death?!
Sure enough, as this order was issued, more and more people could no longer bear it and immediately dropped their weapons and surrendered.
The gunfire inside the stockade gradually died down. After a while, after it was confirmed that the soldiers had the situation under control, Zhao Yu showed up.
Walking into the village, the first thing you see is corpses lying everywhere, but more of them are injured people lying on the ground wailing.
On the other hand, not many of his soldiers were intact, most of them were damaged, but everyone still performed their tasks meticulously.
Zhao Yu did not dare to go too deep, fearing that someone would hide and shoot him. He walked behind the No. 1 off-road vehicle that was still smoking after being beaten, and then he pulled an uninjured person over for questioning.
After some questioning, Zhao Yu learned that there were not many real gunmen in the village, only about a hundred, and most of them were given guns today. There were only more than thirty who could really be considered combatants.<
/p>
Those who hold guns today are usually coolies, working in a mine near the village.
"There is a mine in your village?!"
"Yes, there is an iron mine. We can survive by trading food from these mines with other forces..."
Zhao Yu suddenly realized that this village could feed three to four hundred people. It turned out that there was an iron mine that could be traded with others.
After a brief investigation, he found that the boss of the village had run away. Zhao Yu thought about it and asked people to tie up all the prisoners.
Immediately afterwards, he took inventory of his soldiers.
On this expedition, he took a total of 70 people, 11 of whom died, and the rest were basically injured. The only ones who were not injured were the few Cheetah Special Forces soldiers who were protecting Zhao Yu.
Zhao Yu quickly asked people to start bandaging the wounds, first treating his own people one by one, and then treating the injured prisoners among them.
After doing this, Zhao Yu led the people towards the depths of the village.
It took a lot of effort to finally clarify the situation in the village.
The leader of the village, Li Dazhuang, escaped with his henchmen. They lowered the rope from behind the village and escaped. There were about seven or eight people in total.
The remaining residents, or slaves, were all summoned by Zhao Yu to the large open space near the village gate.
There were more than 300 people standing in front of Zhao Yu, all of them were sallow and thin, with skinny bodies and very numb eyes.
It can be seen that they live a normal life under Li Dazhuang.
In addition to these ragged people, there are more than twenty fair and clean women, all of them are graceful and graceful, and they are trembling and crowded together at this moment.
"Sir, they are all Li Dazhuang's women..."
"So many?!" Zhao Yu was a little surprised. The leader of the village was so good at playing, and there were more than twenty women.
"Not only his, these women play with them..." The speaker was a fairly smart young man named Hu Bo.
This man seemed to have seen an opportunity. Not only was he the first to surrender, he was also the first to reveal the situation in the village, and he volunteered to lead Zhao Yu's men to drive the rest of the village here to receive a lecture.
Looking at the two waves of people in front of him, Zhao Yu was surprised for a while. He didn't expect that only a few years after the end of the world, there would be slavery in these places.
According to Hu Bo, these people are all slaves of Li Dazhuang.
"Won't they resist being slaves?!" Zhao Yu was a little confused. After all, they were all people from modern society, and they just did it when others asked them to be slaves?!
Hu Bo pursed his lips, shook his head and said: "Those who resisted are dead. Li Dazhuang used to like to torture people, and he also liked to let everyone watch..."
"The more you see and hear the more screams, the more no one dares to resist..."
Zhao Yu did not dwell on this topic and directly asked Hu Bo about the gene potion.
Hu Bo thought for a while and said: "When Li Dazhuang escaped, he took a box with him. It's so big. I wonder if the things you want are in his box..."
He is very clever. Although he is not Li Dazhuang's confidant, when the war started, he fished in troubled waters not far from Li Dazhuang and others.
He was also the first to see Li Dazhuang and others escaping, so he surrendered.
"Took away..."
Zhao Yu glanced at the task panel, which showed that the task had not been completed yet.
Looking at it this way, this mission is quite complicated. Breaking the stronghold is not enough, but we also have to chase Li Dazhuang and others.
But where will these people go?!
Zhao Yu is in trouble.
Hu Bo on the side had been looking at Zhao Yu attentively. When he noticed that his brows were wrinkled, he quickly said:
"Sir, don't you know where Li Dazhuang has gone?"
"You know?!" Zhao Yu glanced back at this person.
"I don't know..."
Before Zhao Yu could get angry, Hu Bo quickly said: "But that woman knows!"
Following the direction of his finger, Zhao Yu looked and saw that among the more than twenty Yingying Yanyan, there was a woman surrounded by other women.
This is a naturally charming woman, and her every move is full of temptation and very eye-catching. Especially after seeing Zhao Yu looking at her, she looked away lustfully, as if she was shy.
"She is the wife of the village leader. Li Dazhuang's other women have all been shared with his younger brother, but he is the only one who can use this woman..."
"Hmm!"
Zhao Yu nodded and led the people over.
Seeing the soldiers approaching, there was a commotion among the women, and many people subconsciously took a few steps back, not daring to look at Zhao Yu and others.
Only the wife of the village leader did not retreat, but took a few steps forward, "Dear military lords, our village has changed its owner?!"
Zhao Yu was stunned when he heard this, "What's wrong with changing the leader of the village?"
"I want to be the wife of the village master, anyone can do it..." The woman smiled, with a rare hint of melancholy in her eyes, but it quickly disappeared.
Zhao Yu was too lazy to care about her mental activities and asked directly: "Let me ask you, if Li Dazhuang ran away, where would he most likely go?!"
"Black Rock City!"
The village owner's wife said without hesitation: "He has been to Black Rock City many times, and every time he comes back, he misses it so much. He has said many times that he would like to become a resident of Black Rock City if he has the opportunity..."
Zhao Yu couldn't help but be a little confused and said: "This village looks good. He is the master of the village when he stays here. Why does he want to go to Blackstone City to become a resident?!"
"The mine is empty. If he doesn't run away, he won't be able to support so many people. When those slaves don't even have anything to eat, what else can they do if they don't rebel?!"
"Empty?!"
Zhao Yu couldn't help but feel a little regretful. He was so happy that the mine was so empty.
"Well, it's empty!"
The wife of the village owner smiled and said: "If you search this village, there are not many valuable things. Every time he goes to Black Rock City to exchange supplies, he deposits most of his money there..."
】
She curled her lips, seeming a little disappointed, but then she looked like she had already looked away, "I knew he wanted to run away, but I didn't expect that he didn't take me with him!"
Zhao Yu had no time to chatter with her, so he turned to look at Hu Bo and asked him if he knew the way to Blackstone City from the mountain behind the village.
Hu Bo quickly said: "I know, I went several times with the team escorting the iron ore to Black Rock City..."
Upon seeing this, Zhao Yu directly sent 20 people to be led by Hu Bo to chase Li Dazhuang.
Immediately afterwards, he asked the village owner's wife where all the supplies were.
After getting a positive answer, he sent someone to count the supplies.
There is a lot of food, more than 20 tons, and more than 100 other types of guns. There is plenty of ammunition, about 40,000 to 50,000 rounds.
Zhao Yu thought about it for a while and found that there were still 9 intact cars. The remaining five had been repaired and were basically still usable, but they might break down at some point.
Then, he asked people to take away more than 30,000 rounds of ammunition, and kept the remaining 10,000 rounds. The food was limited by the transportation capacity, and only a small amount, about two or three tons, could be taken away.
The rest was all left to the people of these villages.
While counting the supplies, Zhao Yu's mind rang with the reminder that the task had been completed.
This shows that Hu Bo has successfully caught up with Li Dazhuang.
Sure enough, after another ten minutes or so, the people who went out to track came back, killed three mobilization soldiers, and completely wiped out the enemy.
"Sir, look what I brought back..."
Hu Bo quietly found Zhao Yu and handed him a card.
Zhao Yu took it and took a look. It was similar to the bank card before the apocalypse, but it was obviously newly made. The icon style and bank name were related to Black Rock City.
"This is Li Dazhuang's bank card in Black Rock City. There must be a lot of money in it..."
Zhao Yu put away his bank card, nodded, and said: "Well done!"
Hu Bo wanted to be greedy, but he didn't dare. After all, there were twenty soldiers accompanying him.
"Sir, do you want to leave?!"
Hu Bo couldn't help but ask when he saw two cars filled with food and ammunition.
"Hmm!"
"Then our village..."
Zhao Yu turned his head and looked around. The remaining three hundred people were still standing there numbly as before, like cattle and sheep, ready to be slaughtered.
He couldn't help but shook his head and asked: "What do you think?!"
Hu Bo scratched his head and said: "If I can follow you, sir..."
"Impossible!"
Zhao Yu refused directly. What did he want these people to do? They were not as loyal as his own soldiers, and they had to spend money and energy to support them.
Hu Bo also felt that he was out of his mind. The other party was a soldier of the Luwei Group, and he would go back after completing the mission.
He thought for a while and said: "I plan to transform this place into a harmonious gathering place for survivors..."
"I came here not long ago. I was at another survivor gathering place before, and everyone got along very well..."
"Okay, you can do it yourself!"
After achieving his goal, Zhao Yu didn’t want to stay any longer.
Just when he was about to leave, the village owner's wife hurriedly blocked the way.
"Sir, please take me away!"
There were tears on her face and she looked pitiful, "If you just leave like this, I might..."
"Get out!"
If he hadn't seen her as a woman, Zhao Yu should have killed her.
She can feel at ease and follow Li Dazhuang to enjoy a life of exploiting other people, but she must bear the consequences.
As for whether the remaining people would forgive her, he didn't want to care or know, that was their own business.
Sure enough, when Zhao Yu was about to leave, he had already heard the voices of several people with lively personalities discussing how to deal with these women.
"They have all enjoyed the blessings of Li Dazhuang and others, so they should be killed..."
"It would be a pity to kill him..."
"Renovate and transform, maybe you can become our good brothers and sisters..."
"That's right, according to Brother Bo, we want to become a harmonious and friendly tribe..."
Obviously, Hu Bo has ambitions, but he does not have the strength to become a dictator. He can only find a way to make a big pot of rice and make himself the person who shares the rice.
The sound gradually dispersed with the wind, and Zhao Yu led the convoy towards the base.
There were 71 people on this trip when we left, and only 57 people were left when we returned.
Fourteen mobilized soldiers stayed here. This time, Zhao Yu could not take them all back. Before leaving, he could only arrange for Hu Bo to throw these people into the wild together with the corpses in the village to be recycled by nature.
.
Zhao Yu benefited a lot from this trip, especially in terms of leading troops to fight. He felt that he had too few types of troops and weapons.
"After we go back, we should have some from each branch of the military. If we encounter this kind of situation again, maybe it will be easier to deal with..."
