Chapter 20: The Crisis of Falling Behind
Tang Zheng carried a backpack of more than fifty pounds, held a rifle, and after stepping on the asphalt road, he did not rush to run, but looked around, and waited for others to come down by the way.
"Big brother driver, bring me the map." Tang Zheng didn't have the ability to forget, and after just taking a look, he remembered more than ordinary people, and at this time, facing the criss-crossing cities, he also needed to re-determine the route, "Others hurry up." ”
Liu Guohao is not a stupid person, when he got out of the car, he didn't forget to take the map, ran over and handed it to Tang Zheng, and stopped talking.
"Do you want bullets? Take it yourself! "Tang Zheng can't fight so much for the time being, and giving some away not only gives him a favor, but also reduces some weight.
"Thank you, little brother." Liu Guohao is not good at talking, he is really grateful for Tang Zheng's generosity, and after speaking, he squatted down and unzipped it and stuffed the bullet into his pocket.
As Dong Zixuan and Uncle Wang took the lead, the police got out of the car, and the other newcomers also knew that they had no choice but to run down in a hurry, and it was crowded again, and some of the grumpy ones started scolding again.
"Shut up and get off the bus." Dong Zixuan maintained order, but unfortunately it had little effect.
"Guohao." A woman in her thirties stumbled over and threw herself into Liu Guohao's arms, her eyes were full of tears, red and red, and she was panting so hard that she seemed to be suffocating.
"What's wrong?" Liu Guohao was taken aback, Huixin had a heart attack.
"Who bullied? Tell me. Tang Zheng decided to woo Liu Guohao, looking at his worried appearance, he knew that he had a lot to do with this woman with a good face and a very neat dress.
"No, no." Li Huixin didn't want to cause trouble for her husband, so she couldn't help crying, and when she got out of the car just now, the long-faced donkey friend who had been beaten by Tang Zheng took advantage of the crowd. Twisted her hips and grabbed her boobs.
"Which bastard?" Liu Guohao is tough. The face of the national character. Angry, there is also a momentum, he is the driver of the truck, this time he took his wife out to travel and relax. I didn't expect this to happen.
"Come on, I don't want some scum to mix in the team." Tang Zheng's voice just fell. A young woman screamed and shook her face hard.
"Hooligans." The girl clutched her chest and angrily accused Long Face. This is a Lord who does not suffer.
"You're a hooligan. It was just a stumbling touch. Long Face saw a few newcomers looking at him, and immediately retorted, he didn't want to bear this kind of reputation.
"Nima!" Liu Guohao saw his wife glaring at Long Face dissatisfied, and knew what was going on, strode Meteor over, and smashed a fist into Long Face's chest.
"Hey!" Tang Zheng followed. Sighing, this man is obviously not good at dry fighting. If you hit the chest, what is the use, there is no way to form a deterrent at all, but it will make the war stalemate and make a mess.
"What are you?" That punch made Chang Yan sullen at most, he didn't care about people like Liu Guohao, and immediately rushed up to fight, all of which were fists in the head.
"Hu Hong, the third brother is on it together, cut this goods." Long Face yelled and asked the three travelers to help.
"Get out of the way, don't move." Tang Zheng rushed over, burst into a shout, and then picked up the butt of the shotgun and smashed it on the cheek of the long face.
Poof, the long face spat out a mouthful of blood, which was mixed with a few teeth, and he couldn't help but let go of Liu Guohao and staggered to the side.
Tang Zheng took two steps forward, made up another kick, and kicked on his lower abdomen.
Liu Guohao, who had a long face and a little blue in the corners of his eyes, rushed over and kicked his fleshy stomach violently, but he still didn't dare to kill him.
"Look for a chance to kill this restless long face." Tang Zheng didn't know what punishment would be for killing the newcomer in this battle, so he was a little timid, otherwise he would have killed him a long time ago, "Listen, now that the disaster is at hand, everyone has to twist into a rope, who is bullying their own people, don't blame me for being unkind." ”…,
Most of the newcomers are very cold, only concerned about their own safety, and do not have an aversion to long faces, and it is not them who are being molested anyway.
"Scum, it's all because of you, and you delayed everyone for three minutes." Tang Zheng is not satisfied with this status quo and inciting everyone's emotions, as long as they are a little dissatisfied with Long Face, in the following days, they will continue to exaggerate, and he wants to make Long Face have no place in the team.
"You guys are good, it's a pity that you made a garbage friend who everyone is on and eats meat, don't be deceived by him." Tang Zheng didn't move Hu Hong and the others, and wanted to divide this group of four donkey friends with words.
Hu Hong and the three of them were all young people, and they were worried that others would say that they were not righteous, and they were indifferent and despised when they watched their friends being beaten, but when they heard Tang Zheng's words, they suddenly felt a lot better, and they had a legitimate reason to shirk.
"Pay attention, let's go, don't be left behind." Tang Zheng picked up his backpack and trotted forward, taking advantage of everyone's physical strength and wanting to walk more.
At this time, most of Chicago has been in chaos, the highway is full of citizens with their families, hurrying to escape the city, of course, there are some people who are too afraid of zombies, hiding in their homes, waiting for rescue, but such people have already handed over the initiative, and in a few days, they will face greater difficulties.
Although there are no zombies on this section of the road for the time being, they are still panicked, the cars are congested into a long line, the horns are loud and sounding, and they keep hitting the eardrums, because of the rush to the road, there have been more than a dozen traffic accidents, and the driver curses, rising from a quarrel to a brawl.
There were too many people dragging their families, and the children were frightened and kept crying, and of course there were some obedient ones who helped their parents with the salute.
Tang Zheng doesn't have to worry about their weapons, after all, this is the United States where guns can be legally held, and those local citizens also carry weapons for safety, and all kinds of modified firearms are available, and he even saw a white young man in his twenties wearing a ranger's Sansha military uniform, carrying a few grenades, and holding an M240 machine gun.
Young George's father, a retired soldier, taught him a lot of combat skills, he carried a backpack of weapons and ammunition, pulled his girlfriend, was running wild in the streets, some people probably thought it was safe to follow him, so they spontaneously chased after him, and gathered about twenty people.
George was very enthusiastic and shouted to the people nearby to follow him, he originally had a Humvee, but unfortunately the traffic jam had to be left behind.
"Tang Zheng, someone has fallen behind." Dong Zixuan shouted and reminded Tang Zheng.
After only fifteen minutes of walking, the line of more than a hundred people had become loose, and the women with children could still hold on, but the five old men were all left behind.
Tang Zheng put down his backpack, glanced back, and while resting, he thought of a way, he couldn't pretend not to hear, otherwise others would say that he was cold-blooded, and it would be difficult to lead the group in the future.
In fact, even if he is a fool, he knows that the old man will fall behind, after so many cruel games, his heart is already very hard, for the useless old man, Tang Zheng doesn't want to help, pretend not to know, just ignore it, but unfortunately Dong Zixuan mentioned it, he can only bite the bullet, but for this, he is already thinking of a way.
"Please, help me." An old man was tired enough, and when he saw the team stop, he was hit to the ground by falling nearly fifty meters, and shouted loudly for people to go back to help him.
Although the other three old men were not as unbearable as him, their walking movements were significantly slower, and only one of them was still gritting his teeth and hurrying at full speed.
"Captain, you don't want to leave them behind, do you?" Cao Rongxuan deliberately called the head of the regiment very loudly and squeezed Tang Zheng.
"Rong Xuan, don't say that, everyone is a classmate." Cao Rongxuan's subtext can be heard as long as he is not a fool, Jing Lan doesn't want the two classmates to have a stiff fight, and wants to make a round, but unfortunately he was scolded...,
"What the hell is going on with you?" Cao Rongxuan saw that Tang Zheng could still run in the first place with dozens of pounds of luggage on his back, he didn't take a breath of air, he was envious and jealous to death, and his uncontrolled life in the past few years made his body very weak, "Hmph, don't speak?" You're also a hypocrite, don't you think about yourself? ”
"You're not hypocritical, so go help them." Since the other party doesn't talk about classmate friendship, then there is no need to be polite, Tang Zheng has a lot of time, if he is stumped by these little things, it will be too embarrassing.
"I'm sorry, I'm not the head of the regiment, and I'm not in his position." Cao Rongxuan refused very simply, just to make Tang Zheng ugly, and he was blind about it, and he didn't know what to do.
"Cao Rongxuan, how do you speak? Believe it or not, I pumped you? Zhao Dongtao was annoyed and wanted to fight.
"Am I afraid of you? Wait for Lao Tzu to go back, you just wait to be unemployed, I see who dares to use you. Cao Rongxuan intimidated Zhao Dongtao domineeringly.
"What are you guys making a fuss about?" Song was so anxious that he almost cried, "Everyone is a classmate, can't we work together?" ”
"If you admit to being Brother Rong Xuan's girlfriend, let's ignore the past suspicions and let Tang Zheng go this time." Zheng Sheng is Cao Rongxuan's friend, so he naturally came forward to help at this time.
"Tang Zheng, you can't even put your own backyard in the same way, are you embarrassed to lead others?" Li Wenbo deliberately provoked trouble, and a sentence in the backyard could make a gap in the hearts of arrogant people like Cao Rongxuan.
"I never thought of who to lead, I just thought about everyone cooperating, fewer deaths, and clearing the game." Tang Zheng stared at Cao Rongxuan, "Since you have a way to save the old man, you should be the head of the regiment." ”
"I don't do it, if you're in trouble, you're not stupid." Cao Rongxuan is not fooled, five useless old guys, he wishes they would have died sooner.
"Can't you say less? Shame is thrown abroad. Dong Zixuan was furious and roared, and those foreigners saw them arguing, and they all turned their eyes over.
"Whoever has a way to solve the problem will be the head of the regiment!" Tang Zheng's fierce gaze swept over the newcomers, "If you have one, stand up!" ”
No one answered, because of the zombies, everyone was anxious, and it was a problem to calm down, let alone think about it.
"Don't say I didn't give you a chance, since you can't think of a way, just shut up for me and listen to my arrangement!" Tang Zheng suddenly pulled the trigger towards a couple passing by a few meters away.
