So when the two sides met, Zhang Qingshan saw Jiang Li and his six companions, with Wu Shu and the others tied up with ropes.
Zhang Qingming and the others had never met Gu Jin and his group before, and were initially wary of them. However, seeing that they were helping Wu Shu and his group, they did not take any action for the time being.
Seeing the disheveled state of Zhang Qingshan and the others, Gu Jin knew that they must have just finished a battle and were still bleeding. He stepped forward and said.
"Since we've run into Captain Zhang, you can take care of these people."
After saying that, he handed the rope to Zhang Qingshan, who took it and said...
"Thank you, and I'm very sorry that our situation has dragged you into this."
When Zhang Qingshan saw Wu Shu and the others, he understood that he must have dragged them down. They had just arrived at the base and he had already caused them trouble, so he felt somewhat guilty.
"You're welcome. I believe this is not what Captain Zhang intended either."
Gu Jin said in a friendly manner.
Seeing that Jiang Li and the others were carrying backpacks, Zhang Qingshan spoke up.
"Are you leaving already? The base is stable now, you can stay a while longer without any problem. I haven't had a chance to properly thank you yet."
Gu Jin shook her head and said.
"No, our temporary ID cards expire tonight."
Seeing that his older brother recognized these people, Zhang Qingming spoke up.
"That's alright, I'll get you another one with no time limit."
Zhang Qingshan also spoke up.
"Yes, now that Li Ding and his group have fallen, this kind of uniform should be abolished. Everyone is the same, there's no need to differentiate between ranks. Besides, you'll be spending the night in the wild anyway, so you should stay at the base for a while."
Gu Jin glanced at Jiang Li and the others, then turned and said.
"Then I'll have to trouble Captain Zhang."
So in the end, Captain Zhang found someone to take Jiang Li and the others to apply for new base cards. Captain Zhang also wanted to find houses for Jiang Li and the others to live in, but Jiang Li and the others refused. They hadn't done anything, so they couldn't accept the benefits without having done anything.
In the end, Captain Zhang had no choice but to go with them, and promised to treat them to a meal in a few days, which Jiang Li and the others agreed to.
After thanking the person who brought them to get their base cards, Jiang Li and Gu Jin rented a temporary house at the base. Since they were already there and had nothing else to do, they decided to stay for a while.
When they came out of the hotel, they found that the owner and the other two had been knocked unconscious. Fortunately, they were not in any danger. Jiang Li and the others left some food for them, as they had indeed been dragged down by them.
After settling Zhang Huaimin and the other injured people, Zhang Qingshan returned to the conference room. Looking at the people in the conference room who had been with him and his two sons through thick and thin, Zhang Qingshan knelt down with a thud.
"Dear uncles and elders, thank you for standing firmly behind my father from beginning to end. Thanks to your perseverance, we were able to overcome those villains in the end. If you ever need my help in the future, please don't hesitate to ask. I will do my best to repay you all!"
The men readily agreed and hurriedly helped Zhang Qingshan up.
"Qingshan, nothing else matters right now. The main thing is that your father has been unconscious for a long time, and I'm afraid something bad will happen if we delay any longer!"
The speaker was an elderly man with gray hair, who spoke with great sorrow, thinking of Zhang Huaimin who was still in a coma, and gave Zhang Qingshan his instructions.
"Yes, I've already had the doctor take my dad to see the doctors myself. I hope he recovers soon."
Now, besides dealing with his own father's affairs, he also has to resolve the problems left behind by Li Ding.
A few days later, Jiang Li and the others still hadn't seen Captain Zhang. Many of the base's policies had been changed and made more humane. As they walked around the base, they could clearly feel that the atmosphere had changed; it seemed more relaxed. It seemed that Captain Zhang and his team were very popular.
Zhang Qingshan did not disappoint everyone's expectations. After several days of reorganization, he finally stabilized the people in the base who had been injured to varying degrees within half a month. The daily production and various industries in the base also underwent new changes, which were of course good.
Afterwards, Captain Zhang treated Jiang Li and the others to a meal. Because Jiang Li had been involved in the conflict before, Captain Zhang had prepared a very thoughtful meal, which included dishes that were not available at the First Base. The others didn't know, but Jiang Li seemed to enjoy the meal.
After dinner, Jiang Li and the others returned to their routine from when they were at the first base, and they basically didn't go out until this day.
Gu Jin and Jiang Li returned from outside and were just changing their shoes when they heard a sharp alarm suddenly sounding in the base, along with a clicking sound coming from somewhere.
The alarm sounded for almost 15 minutes before someone could be heard loudly explaining through a loudspeaker.
"Urgent Notice! A strange bird is attacking. Please return to your rooms immediately. If there is no time, please find the nearest shelter. The base will notify you once the crisis is over. Please be sure to pay attention to your personal safety."
The announcement was repeated three times before it finally stopped, along with the piercing alarm.
"Ah! Ah! Ah!"
Shortly after the alarm was turned off, strange bird calls appeared over the base.
Suddenly a scream rang out, accompanied by the cry of a strange bird and the sound of its wings flapping, and chaos erupted outside once again.
The base had sounded the alarm early on and warned everyone, but some people just wouldn't listen and continued to wander around the base, completely disregarding the current situation.
The screams, the sounds of running, and the eerie cries of the strange birds echoed throughout the base. People outside ran around in a panic, but where could they possibly run to under the attack of so many strange birds?
Jiang Li could see these strange birds outside through the window. They were enormous, four or five times the size of a normal eagle, with hard beaks and sharp claws, along with jet-black feathers and large, rolling eyes. Just looking at them made him feel a sense of oppression.
The bird's claws are incredibly sharp, capable of easily tearing through thick human clothing and skin. Its wings are covered with sharp barbs, and with a flap of its large wings, the powerful wind it generates causes people to retreat step by step. If one is unlucky enough to be caught by a barb, its sharp beak can immediately snatch one's head off!
"Bang bang bang"
Jiang Li and Gu Jin's courtyard gate was knocked on, and cries for help came from all sides.
"Open the door! Please open the door! I know there are people inside, please, please open the door, I'm really going to die out here!"
"Damn it, open the door right now! Otherwise, you'll be in big trouble if I break it down!"
"Is anyone there? Is anyone there? Open the door quickly! There's a huge bird outside eating people's eyes!"
"..."
All sorts of people were at the door, men, women, and children screaming pitifully. Some were desperately pleading for help, while others were threatening and bribing. Jiang Li and Gu Jin exchanged glances but had no intention of going out.
None of them had ever experienced such a bizarre bird attack on the base before, and none of them wanted to go out and take risks while they were still figuring out the situation.
