Since the arrival of polar night, more than 300 people have committed suicide at the Huaijiang base, bringing the death toll to 256, including several cases of collective suicide by jumping from buildings.
Xia Huaifeng had already sent people to provide psychological counseling to the residents, but it was of no use at all.
If this continues, the atmosphere in the base will only get worse.
So many people have died and there is no fresh blood in the base. What's the point of him being the base commander? Is he just a commander without any troops?
Xia Huaifeng was extremely anxious, but he couldn't find any way to ease the current situation.
The subordinate beside him mustered up the courage and whispered, "Base Commander, I think we can ask Shuguang Supermarket for help.
As long as there is hope, the suicide rate will definitely go down."
The four words "Shuguang Supermarket" made Xia Huaifeng and Jiang Shuyue's faces change at the same time.
"Absolutely not!" Jiang Shuyue rejected it without even thinking.
The subordinate was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously asked, "Why? The suicide rates at those bases outside that have joined the Dawn Supply Station are really low."
Jiang Shuyue turned around and glared at him, "If you envy others so much, go join another base instead of staying in Huaijiang."
Whenever something related to Jiang He came up, she was like a lit firecracker, so angry that she didn't take anyone seriously.
Xia Huaifeng tilted his head towards his subordinate, signaling him to go out first.
After watching the door close, he walked over and sat down next to Jiang Shuyue.
"Yueyue, you need to change your temper. Even if you hate Jiang He, at least pretend to be nice in front of outsiders."
Jiang Shuyue was so angry that her eyes turned red and she turned her head away deliberately.
"My temper is indeed not as good as those beautiful girls around you, so you can go find them."
Xia Huaifeng was choked for a moment, and immediately took her hand and said calmly:
"Nonsense, I don't have any beautiful women. You are the only one by my side forever."
Hearing this, Jiang Shuyue's expression softened a bit. "Anyway, I just don't want to see anything related to that bitch."
Xia Huaifeng felt a little regretful that he did not establish a good relationship with Jiang He when he was at the Nanyang base.
In that case, he wouldn't even have to say anything, and Shuguang Supermarket would come to the Huaijiang base frequently.
It’s a pity that there is no way to go back to the past.
He had offended Jiang He before, so it was definitely impossible for him to ask someone to do something for him.
"Yueyue, don't cry. I agree to everything you said."
Jiang Shuyue raised her head with tears in her eyes, "Really?"
As she spoke, she hugged the man's arm, her voice particularly soft, "Brother Huaifeng, how are you going to solve the problem of the base?
Is there anything I can do to help?”
Xia Huaifeng touched her head, his eyes gentle, "I'll find a way, you just need to be the base commander's wife, don't worry about these things."
Jiang Shuyue buried herself in his arms, moved, "Brother Huaifeng, you are so kind."
…
Huaijiang Base, civilian area.
Sheng Yu, Zhao Gang and others gathered in the dormitory to discuss tonight's actions.
Half a month ago, on the third day of the polar night, they sneaked into the Huaijiang base.
This place was founded by the Sheng family, and there are many residents who loyally follow the Sheng family.
However, they did not know the truth behind the Sheng family's extermination, which was related to the current base commander, so they worked for Xia Huaifeng.
Zhao Gang and the captain of the guard team at the gate of the base are good brothers who are willing to die for each other. After they disguised themselves and came in, the first person they tried to win over was Captain Feng Chong.
Over the following period of time, Sheng Yu gradually brought together several small groups and now formed a small-scale team.
Too many people have died in the base recently. Sheng Yu doesn't want to leave it alone any longer, so he decides to take action tonight and try to regain the management of the base in one fell swoop.
However, they planned everything perfectly, but they did not expect to encounter a beast tide besieging the base.
Xia Huaifeng had learned the news long before them.
Just a second ago, I was still worried about the suicide rate in the base. Now, the beast tide is coming and no one can survive.
With the strength of the Huaijiang base, it is definitely not able to withstand so many mutant beasts outside.
Nothing good will come of staying here.
The best choice is to abandon the base, take the supplies and leave immediately.
The core materials of the base have always been kept in Xia Huaifeng's space, including those hot weapons.
Since there is no possibility of victory, it would be a waste to use firearms.
Xia Huaifeng took away all the useful things, and finally went to find Jiang Shuyue and took her to evacuate by helicopter.
Seeing a helicopter parked on the roof and about to take off, Sheng Yu's face was so gloomy that it seemed as if water could drip out.
There is no doubt that it is prepared for the leaders of the base.
They planned to abandon the residents of the base and fly alone to a safe place.
At this time, if he rushed forward directly, with the gun in his hand, there was a high chance that he could avenge the dozens of people in the Sheng family who had died.
However, the beasts outside are trying to break through the wall. Once a hole is opened, the base will soon fall.
By then, countless residents of the base will be killed or injured.
Sheng Yu retracted his gaze and said to Zhao Gang and the others, "Let's go to the gate of the base."
If his enemy ran away, he still had a chance to find him again, but if the base was destroyed and he went underground, how would he explain to his father?
Zhao Gang and the others understood Sheng Yu's decision and, as always, chose to follow him unconditionally.
Let’s put revenge aside for now.
Right now, the most important thing is to defend the base!
…
Jiang He drove the RV and had a smooth journey until he arrived near the Huaijiang base, where he found groups of mutant beasts blocking the road ahead.
It seems that she has encountered a tide of beasts again.
The RV didn't slow down at all and kept charging through the herd of animals.
Mutated cows, mutant horses, mutant sheep...flying all over the sky.
At the same time, Jiang He summoned all the unemployed workers.
"Run faster and clear out the mutant beasts outside the base first."
"Yes, Master!"
Little Dumpling stepped on the back of a mutant rhinoceros, using it as a stepping stone, and quickly rushed towards the Huaijiang base.
Looking at the densely packed mutant beasts outside the wall, Sheng Yu had no intention of retreating.
This is where his father founded the place and it is also the home he is most familiar with.
Even if he dies, he will fight to the last moment.
Zhao Gang, He Yu and others are also willing to sacrifice their lives for the Linsheng Base.
They were orphans who were unwanted by everyone. If it weren't for Mr. Sheng's support and cultivation, they would have died somewhere now.
As long as they are still breathing, no mutant beasts will ever set foot in the base!
Sheng Yu led his team and kept shooting the mutant beasts outside the wall.
What made them feel powerless was that the mutant beasts were so numerous that even when they ran out of bullets, they only managed to kill less than one-tenth of the mutant beasts.
At this desperate moment, a black and white figure appeared in their sight.
Zhao Gang paused, his eyes brightening, "Great! It's the divine beast from Shuguang Supermarket. We're saved!"
