"Have you heard? There is an opportunity to join the army today." A man excitedly spread the news he heard.
"Have you heard about the conscription?"
"Nonsense! Of course I know. Look at the situation now. Those soldiers are doing dangerous work. The casualties are bound to be high."
"Son, I'm warning you, don't join the army, or I'll disown you."
"I want to join the army. I've been waiting for this day for a long time."
“Where can I sign up?”
In a plain area, tens of thousands of people knew the news sent by Captain Yang. At noon, everyone, whether they wanted to join the army or came to inquire about the news and wait and see, gathered here.
Xu Xuening looked at Captain Yang and nodded.
Captain Yang stood up and looked at the people in front of him and the soldiers around him.
He didn't bring many soldiers with him. If he really wanted to escort these civilians to Huacheng and encountered a large group of zombies, they would probably be killed here.
If they want to reach Huacheng alive, they must be able to protect themselves.
Otherwise, few of these tens of thousands of people would be able to reach Huacheng.
Thinking of this, for the sake of these people's lives, he walked out.
"Ahem" a sound coming from a loudspeaker attracted the attention of everyone in the audience.
Everyone stopped talking and looked up at Captain Yang who was standing on a slope in front of them.
Everyone knows what the leading regiment commander wants to say at this time, and whether he really wants to recruit people into the army.
"Without further ado, I'm sure everyone is aware of the current situation. Because of that unknown virus, we've encountered the most difficult period in human history. The current virus, due to widespread infection, has seriously threatened our survival. I believe everyone risked their lives when they chose to set out for Hwaseong. Leaving the city means leaving the area most threatened by the virus, but this doesn't mean we're safe. On the contrary, we'll face even more unknown difficulties on the road ahead."
Captain Yang looked at the restless people below and continued, "I think everyone already knows what we've encountered since we left. We have to find a way to get food ourselves. We also have to overcome the zombies. However, this isn't just a matter for one person. If any one of you gets infected, it could endanger the entire team. Right now, we're facing the most serious problem."
"Yesterday, many people saw new members joining our team, and they brought us an important news."
After hearing what Captain Yang said, the people underground began to ask each other.
"What's going on? Old Yang isn't talking about conscription anymore?"
"Don't be impatient yet, listen to what that person says. Maybe this matter is difficult to handle, so Lao Yang pushed it out."
"Who is that person? He didn't say anything when he spoke to us yesterday?"
Xie Yan looked at Xu Xuening, and she shook her head slightly.
Xie Yan knew that Xu Xuening had no intention of speaking out. She hadn't even dared to raise her hand to speak in elementary school, and now, in front of tens of thousands of people, she felt even less confident. Even though she knew what she was saying was important, she just wanted to do her job well.
Xie Yan stood up and looked at the people in the audience, looking at their curious eyes.
There is disdain, suspicion, but more of curiosity and some expectations.
That’s right, expectations.
Xie Yan has given countless speeches, from starting a business in college to giving graduation speeches to the entire school, from the company's annual meeting to the shareholders' meeting. He has experienced all kinds of scenes, but in no other speech has the audience's eyes been as full of expectations as today.
That's a look of hope.
Those were longing eyes that had crawled out of despair.
They have lost their mobile phones, TV broadcasts, and all electronic devices these days.
All the news was cut off, and they were suddenly returned to the past. They had no idea what was happening in the world.
Even though some people tried every possible means to get some information from Captain Yang every day, the news that came quietly was always bad news.
Gaoning City seeks rescue
Haichang City seeks rescue
Naqi County seeks rescue
xx City seeks rescue
…
Every day, such news came in like pieces of paper, but I never heard a single piece of news that could comfort me. At this time, I didn't even hear a single falsehood.
No one came to comfort them anymore, and no news came from any TV station.
Panic has already permeated everyone's heart, but no one dares to speak out.
Can't say
Can't say
Sadness is contagious. When they lost control of their emotions for the first time, a large number of people fell into sadness. Despair almost drove the entire team, and it was out of control.
Some people fall asleep exhausted with tears streaming down their faces, only to see the dead figures of their companions the next morning.
That night became a pain in their hearts.
Many people silently chose death, which took away their lives and also brought zombies around them.
There was no time to bury the bodies of their companions, and they were almost wiped out by the zombies that arrived.
Finally, they resorted to the oldest method, forming groups of ten people to divide the area and comfort each other.
Encourage everyone to support each other and face difficulties together.
This eased the feeling of terror.
Someone once mentioned that the mental state of modern people is deteriorating day by day and requires urgent attention.
