Suddenly there was the roar of heavy machine guns downstairs, mixed with the roar of someone and the roar of monsters. Li Lei's nerves were completely numb at this time. He watched blankly as the fourth platoon leader rushed down with his men. It took him a long time to react. The gunfire downstairs became more intense, the sound of heavy machine guns stopped, and they could hear screams coming from the fourth floor, interspersed with the sound of grenades exploding. After a while, people began to escape one after another. The platoon leader and a few people placed machine guns at the entrance of the stairs and prepared all grenades. Li Lei¡¯s gun had been thrown in the toilet, so he took the grenade he was carrying and stood at the top of the stairs. The number of people in the fourth row was reduced by one-third, but they finally brought up the company commander who was covered in blood. Several soldiers in armed police uniforms followed closely behind them. They should be the crew of the armored vehicle. "Shoot! Shoot quickly!" The fourth platoon leader shouted loudly. Li Lei and the others had already seen the monsters following them. The machine gun passed through the crowd and hit the monster group, but it did not delay their actions at all. "Throw the grenade!" the platoon leader said through gritted teeth. There were still four or five people at the bottom of the stairs, but the monster had already followed. ??The continuous explosions finally stopped the monster's attack. Taking advantage of this moment, those who had escaped before pushed all the counters in the hall and threw them downstairs, finally blocking the entire staircase. "What happened?" Looking at the shocked soldiers, Li Lei couldn't help but ask. "There are too many of them," one soldier replied. "Just in the blink of an eye, they appeared out of nowhere." "Where are the others?" the platoon leader asked. The soldier shook his head. The pile of things blocking the stairs suddenly began to shake, and a monster's cry came from the third floor. They looked at each other, and ran to push down all the remaining counters. "You won't last long like this," someone said. But they have no better way. "Company Commander!" The voices of the four platoon commanders came from behind, and they gathered around. Something made a big gash in the company commander's abdomen, which was dripping with blood and his internal organs were exposed. He clutched his arms tightly, as if he wanted to say something, but when he opened his mouth, only a lot of black blood poured out, and he died within a short time. His eyes were wide open, and the fourth platoon leader held back his tears and used his hands to open them twice before closing them. "What should we do?" someone asked. Everyone looked at the platoon leader and the fourth platoon leader. They looked at each other and smiled bitterly. ¡°First, count the number of people, weapons and ammunition, and then hold a meeting with cadres above the squad leader and party members.¡± The fourth platoon leader looked at the platoon leader inquiringly and said, and the platoon leader nodded. There are now only sixty-one people left in the entire company, and there are no wounded. There are forty-four automatic rifles, with an average of one hundred and twenty bullets per gun; five shotguns, with an average of only twelve bullets per gun; there are only twenty grenades left, and six rocket launchers, two of which It was empty, a grenade launcher with four remaining grenades inside. The ammunition was all in the armored vehicle and I didn¡¯t have time to get it. Just now, the giant was still circling the building looking for them. It would open a big hole with its fist from time to time, and then poke its head over. In order to avoid attracting its attention, they turned off their headlights and hid behind the pillars. Weak light filtered in from the holes all around, allowing them to barely see what was going on around them. "Have you just contacted your superiors?" the fourth platoon leader asked first. "The regiment headquarters was also attacked, and the division headquarters was not contacted." An armored vehicle driver replied. "What orders do they have?" "Let us stay close and wait for reinforcements, but as soon as we started carrying ammunition, those monsters rushed over." A squad leader in the first row replied. He closed his eyes, as if he didn't want to think about it. The situation just now. "Have all other comrades died?" the fourth platoon leader continued to ask. He nodded silently. ¡°Our current ammunition is only enough to support a low-intensity battle.¡± A party member whispered. "Those obstacles are not safe either. We have to find another way." As if to confirm his words, the cabinets at the stairway made another shattering sound, and the whole thing fell a few centimeters. ¡°But we have nowhere to move,¡± another person said. "The next level up is the rooftop." "Without food and water, we can't last more than a few days." Everyone was silent. They were facing an almost desperate situation. "We will all die here." The platoon leader suddenly said. Li Lei wanted to punch him in the face. "Fight them!" said an impulsive soldier, but no one supported him. "We have to believe in the organization, they will definitely find a way to save us." The fourth platoon leader whispered, but it was obvious that he believed his own words. "Even if monsters charge forward, we must die in the battle instead of losing our lives in vain!" His voice suddenly became firm. "How many veterans and how many new recruits are there?" asked a squad leader. "Weapons should be given priority to veterans, so that they can achieve some results." Everyone nodded in agreement, and the only result of the meeting was the adoption of this resolution. ¡°There is no sure path, we must believe that we will survive.¡± The fourth platoon leader finally said. They scattered around to find a way out. Li Lei remembered a movie he had seen in which the heroine escaped from a heavily guarded room through a vent, so he excitedly looked around for the vent, but in the end he regretfully found that , the ventilation duct in the mall is connected to the central air conditioner and is simply not large enough for adults to pass. The monsters downstairs continued to destroy those things that stood between them. They looked around for things that could be used to block the stairs. They even took down the partition walls and partitions that decorated the shop, but the pile of debris was still there. It was slowly shaking and falling, as if it would collapse at any time. ? ****** Liang Jin suddenly barged in, startling Lin Chuan who was sleeping on the bed. "What are you doing?" he protested loudly. "Clean up, we need to evacuate immediately." Liang Jin replied expressionlessly. "What's wrong?" Lin Chuan felt that the atmosphere was extremely tense. Two soldiers were watching them outside the door. "It's raining." Liang Jin replied in a bad mood. Although she had predicted such a situation, she would rather she never got it right. The subway system has just been renovated in less than 24 hours. Many basic functions are not yet in place. Most supplies have not yet been shipped. Ventilation and drainage facilities have not even returned to normal functions. Water is still accumulating in many places. "It would be a crime to move people inside at this time. Many people would die from suffocation, infection, thirst and starvation, but she believed there was no better way. News just came from the Jinhui Building observation point. A large number of monsters are taking advantage of the heavy rain to pour into the river and sea from the west. The forwards have almost reached a place less than 500 meters away from the inner city. The troops of the First Mixed Division have been completely trapped in the city and are fighting on their own. It is only a matter of time before they are destroyed. The troops on the northern and southern defense lines have abandoned their positions and are rushing towards the inner city. They have abandoned the artillery installed on the roof, and they only carry mortars and self-propelled artillery. No matter how you look at it, defending the inner city is an impossible task. The wall, which has not yet been completed and has gaps everywhere, cannot stop the monsters from moving forward. We can only evacuate underground first. No matter how big the sacrifice is, at least some people can survive. As long as you can live, there is hope. Lin Chuan couldn't understand the relationship between rain and evacuation, but he could tell that Liang Jin was in a very bad mood. ¡°Am I still going to be locked up like this?¡± he finally asked. Liang Jin ignored him, turned and walked out of the room.
