Chapter 241 Refugee Riot
The outings every three days continued, but there were now occasional transactions with the Brothers and Sisters Chamber of Commerce.
At the base, a water truck would still deliver some water to them before dawn every day.
The amount of water left in the water truck is not fixed each day.
Sometimes there are one or two hundred liters, and sometimes only a few dozen liters.
The two will share some of the water with the two families in 1208.
In the past few days, Han Ying and Lu Yuan also asked Liu Hefeng about the reasons why the base was taking those big actions, but Liu Hefeng said he didn't know either.
Since Liu Hefeng said so, it means that this matter is a secret to the base.
So the two of them gave up the idea of asking Gu Yuanping to avoid embarrassing him.
The Lantern Festival.
While Han Ying and Lu Yuan were making Yuanxiao dumplings, several armed soldiers were guarding the shopping mall outside the base diligently.
In the past, shopping malls would send a few armed soldiers to guard outside for fear of trouble.
There were also several soldiers guarding the mall.
But the total number will not exceed ten.
But these days, there have been more than a dozen people with guns guarding inside and outside the mall.
Tonight it was the turn of the second row where the Erhua brothers were. There were 30 people in total, 20 outside and 10 inside.
Zhuang Xinghe and Zhuang Erhua, both armed with guns, stood guard around the mall with other comrades.
Many people who originally wanted to go into the mall to buy things became scared when they saw so many soldiers guarding outside. They kept watching from a distance and did not dare to enter the mall.
Some people saw so many soldiers guarding the mall and thought it was safer, so they bought more things.
Erhua and another comrade patrolled to the back of the mall, and the two stood there chatting.
"Erhua, you're close to the company commander, do you know why there are so many extra people guarding the mall recently? It looks no different than before?"
Although everyone obeyed the order, there was still some curiosity in their hearts.
"How can I know something you don't know? Although I am close to the company commander, who is our company commander? He won't reveal a word that he shouldn't say."
Erhua kept her eyes fixed on the dark road in the distance.
Although Captain Liu did not tell them the reason, he told them to be careful when patrolling.
You must be fully prepared!
"Forget it, let's just follow orders."
He hadn't had much hope in the first place.
“I think…”
Just as Erhua was about to say something, a gust of hot wind suddenly blew towards her.
The hot wind almost made Erhua vomit.
Just when Erhua was about to swear, she suddenly realized something and her face almost changed color.
The company commander pressed the alarm that he had carried with him, and immediately a shrill "woooo" sound echoed behind the mall.
When other comrades heard the alarm, they immediately took precautions.
Erhua ran into the mall and found the platoon leader. "Report! We found a large number of people coming towards the mall. Requesting instructions from the platoon leader!"
The hot wind just now was mixed with a disgusting sour smell.
When Erhua almost vomited, he suddenly thought that the hot wind would only have such a strong smell when it swept through a large number of people with foul odors.
"Take two people with you and move all the people in the mall to the third floor. Close the mall door if necessary. Everyone else follow me out. If anything goes wrong, shoot immediately!"
After the platoon leader gave the order, he led his men out of the mall.
Just as they walked out of the mall door, they heard bursts of collisions and gunshots outside!
In the darkness, there was a large group of refugees in tattered clothes, each holding various protective equipment in one hand and a brick in the other.
Without saying a word, he threw a brick at the soldiers.
When the soldiers saw these people, they did not shoot at first, because after all, the situation was unclear and these people did not show any intention of doing anything evil.
So in just a few seconds of hesitation, the refugees were already approaching them.
"Stop immediately or I will...!"
The 19 soldiers on guard outside saw that the approaching refugees had no intention of stopping and immediately pointed their guns at them.
But the next moment, before they could finish their words, the refugees suddenly threw hundreds of bricks at them, smashing the soldiers' heads and causing them to bleed.
And as they opened fire, a new round of bricks was thrown at them.
With blood all over their heads, the soldiers fired at the refugees who were pouring in like a tide.
But after the first group of refugees fell down, the refugees behind them trampled them to the ground and continued to throw bricks at them.
Most of the soldiers were hit on the head and blood was all over the ground.
When the platoon leader and his men came out, seven or eight of their comrades had already fallen to the ground and were unable to get up.
The refugees came in a fierce manner, leaving no room for negotiation. It was obvious that they came here to occupy the shopping mall.
"Everyone return to the mall immediately! Everyone return to the mall immediately!"
There were so many refugees that they had surrounded the entire shopping mall.
They were fearless and threw bricks at them again and again. After one group died, another group would come up.
Even though they had used up all their bullets, they still couldn't stop the refugees from pouring in.
The few soldiers who were still standing used their backs to block the bricks thrown at them and dragged their fallen comrades into the mall.
The door of the mall closed instantly.
At this time, Han Ying and Lu Yuan at the base had already made the Yuanxiao balls.
I collected a batch and stored it in the basement, left some for myself, and gave some to the two families in 1208.
The dog that was originally curled up at Han Ying's feet suddenly pricked up its ears and then stood up abruptly.
"What's the matter?"
Seeing Tangyuan's movements, Han Ying put down the Yuanxiao yuan in her hand and looked over there.
Just as I asked, bursts of dense banging sounds suddenly came from a distance.
The sound is not loud, and if you don't listen carefully, you can't tell what it is.
However, the two people who occasionally practiced shooting in the space were still able to tell that it was the sound of gunfire.
And the gunshots were very dense, the sound of many people shooting at the same time.
Judging from the volume of the sound, it definitely wasn't coming from inside the base, but outside the base.
Neither Han Ying nor Lu Yuan could tell exactly where it was.
The intensive gunfire did not last long.
The two came out of the villa and stood on the balcony looking outside.
They couldn't see anything at all, and just when the two were about to go in, they heard a shrill alarm coming from the entire base.
Patrol cars shuttled through various districts. "Everyone go home immediately. Do not stay outside. Go home immediately and close the doors and windows! Go home immediately and close the doors and windows!"
Standing on the balcony, the two saw many people running out from the office building.
The base ended get off work early and asked everyone to return to their homes.
No one except the officials knew what happened.
The two were still standing on the balcony when Han Ying's cell phone rang.
