356, Mutant 19

The war lasted for one day and two nights, and the casualty rate of the female regiment reached its highest on the second night, because by this time the female soldiers were very tired, the power plant was destroyed, and the darkness provided a natural camouflage for the mutants. The mutants are undoubtedly smart. They carry out raids. It stands to reason that although the safe zone can detect them in advance before they approach the safe zone, in such a short time, no matter how comprehensive the arrangement is, it is impossible. At that time, those who fail to make arrangements in time will be their prey.

They didn't expect to capture the safe zone in one fell swoop. Their original plan was to fish in troubled waters and eat their fill, and finally entered the city. They were met with swords, guns and artillery fire, and they seemed to have prepared knives and forks. But they didn't care. They didn't find out until they got inside, damn it! It’s hard to even touch the hair! It was completely unexpected that all the houses were empty.

This kind of mobility was beyond their expectation, and the prey was hidden too quickly! Then the more he attacks, the more he discovers that it belongs to his grandma! The South China Sea Safety Zone is really a dragnet. There are traps everywhere. Mines will explode as soon as you step on them. If you step back, bullets will hit the concrete slab where you were standing.

Looking at the situation, where are the emergency measures?

But after finally gathering so many people, where does it say that retreat can be done? So they continued to fight without hesitation, and the troops in the safe zone also gritted their teeth and fought back. In the end, the scattered temporary alliance of mutants was defeated, and they could not get the huge amount of prey they expected. The mutants were already a little tired of fighting. Especially after the shadow capture device in the safe area captured four black shadows, the mutant attack collapsed even more severely.

At two o'clock in the night, the mutants retreated. Among the mutants receding like a tide, a tall figure looked back, clutching his stomach. Yu Heng threw away the blunt knife, looked suspiciously at the direction in which the mutants were retreating, and then squatted down to help his injured comrade.

The mutants retreated, but the army could not rest. First, power was restored to the entire city, and then all city gates were closed again.

After sending the injured to receive treatment, he asked the female soldiers to rest on the spot and keep vigil.

"Let's do the rest until dawn tomorrow. Don't open the air-raid shelter yet. Wait until the safe area is cleaned tomorrow and make sure there are no mutants hiding in it before letting everyone out."

He also visited the camp and finally went to the temporary medical station at the entrance of the air raid shelter to visit the injured female soldiers. Listening to the painful gasps in his ears, he sighed and asked, "Has the food been ready for them?"

"It's almost ready. I'll take you to see it." Seeing Yu Heng's expression, the adjutant took the initiative to take him to the logistics cooking class. They had not eaten since noon the day before yesterday. After receiving the order from their superiors, they urgently ordered troops to cook. Ben only brought ready-to-eat compressed food. Now we cook some liquid food, mainly for the injured.

Yu Heng read them all carefully, stirred them with a spoon a few times, and nodded with satisfaction: "That's all we can do for the time being. Please write it down for me. When the safe area is cleared tomorrow, send the wounded back to the barracks first, and I'll start. Just a note, you ask the cooking team to go directly to the canteen to get the materials, and we will make nutritious meals for the wounded ourselves. "

Chen Wei nodded: "Don't worry, I've written it down."

Back in his car, Yu Heng also ate his belated lunch and dinner and late night snacks. The compressed biscuits were not delicious. He swallowed them with Leng Baikai. When he was halfway through eating, Chen Wei came and said, "The porridge has been delivered." Go down."

He felt more relieved. He added powdered moonflower dew and immortality pills to the porridge, hoping that it would help the injuries of the female soldiers and save the lives of the seriously injured ones.

The night was very long. He took a nap and was woken up again. He had to patrol the camp again and again, and then contacted the female soldiers in other air-raid shelters. Only when it got dark did everyone really breathe a sigh of relief. Dawn came. .

At seven o'clock, Yu Heng organized manpower to start cleaning the safe area. The cleaning areas of different corps were different, and the cutting ranges were separated. The speed was faster. The cleaning was completed before noon. After settling the wounded, he was busy opening the Air-raid shelters allow residents to go home individually. Some survivors still need to be picked up and dropped off, so vehicles have to be transferred.

I won’t go into details about the specific hustle and bustle. He couldn’t stop until the evening. Mr. Lu Andong held an impromptu meeting and invited the South China Sea Security Zone government management and military generals to participate. They said that they were striking while the iron was hot, summarizing some of the war situation, and then discussing the post-war tasks. Make a characterization and segmentation.

He had no choice but to take a hurried shower, but fortunately his hair was short, so he could put his hat back on after just wiping it after washing.

On the large round table, the comrades were slumped in their chairs, and the smell of blood and gunpowder smoke lingered in their noses.

"We survived, okay, okay, everyone, please be more energetic. If your soldiers see you lying down like this, you will laugh to death."

"Smile! If you dare to laugh at me, I will beat him into a softer noodle man!"

"Stop arguing, Sister Zheng is here, let her see and laugh at you."

"Hey, Sister Zheng is still as charming as ever! Unlike our brothers, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look! She has aged twenty years after staying up for two nights."

"Hahaha……"

Yu Heng also laughed when the topic came up. Many men are like this. It would be better to chat a little at this time. It would be better if it was seasoned with some color. The only female generals present were him and another female corps commander. There were also ladies from the government. , but they are all ladies of a certain age, and they are not easy targets for jokes. He is the youngest, so it is normal for them to be talked about, and he is used to it.

If you really care about it, you will be called unattractive and cowardly. He responded casually, "I don't mind. We are all brothers and sisters. We have to pay so much attention to everything we do. My little sister is also very happy for today's big victory. When the meeting ends later, the brothers and sisters will reward you." I’ll invite you all to have a meal at the Ping An Hotel.” She lowered her voice and said, “I’ve hidden a lot of wine and I’ll give it to you today.”

"Okay!" The generals on the round table smiled kindly and cheered.

The meeting has not officially started, and Lu Andong has not arrived yet. The atmosphere at the round table is lively. Yu Heng smiles and looks around the conference room casually. He turns around and sees a young man among the minutes taking the meeting staring at him. He glances at the clothes. And hanging on the name tag, it is clear that it is a reporter from the Comprehensive Daily newspaper in the safety zone. This newspaper is the only designated official newspaper in the safety zone, and its partners include the military and the safety zone government. Moreover, he had some impression of this reporter. He had been interviewed by him two years ago, so he nodded slightly and looked back.

What he didn't know was that after he turned his head, the pen in the young reporter's hand fell off the table.

Guang Hailu hurriedly picked up the pen, and the senior whispered: "Be careful and steady!" "Yes! Yes!" This was his first time to participate in such a big occasion. If it weren't for this mutant attack, during the retreat, Some of the seniors were injured, and the meeting was in a hurry. He happened to return to the newspaper office after leaving the air-raid shelter (in fact, he wanted to develop the photo of Captain Zheng), and he got this precious opportunity. "Don't worry."

Suppressing his heartbeat and shyness, Guang Hailu couldn't help but take another sneak peek. Captain Zheng was still so young and beautiful. He had interviewed her before. Zheng Hengman was the first candidate to graduate from the combat school. At that time, when he first saw her, she stood in the middle of the other seven male students and accepted During the interview, stand up straight and look directly into the camera. She is not like an ordinary woman. She exudes a kind of strength, a strength that refuses to admit defeat and is better than many men.

How old was she at that time? I heard that at only nineteen years old, he is already showing off his sharp edge. Then only two years later, she was already the leader of the female soldier corps. Such rapid advancement was eye-catching. On the day of the award, he followed his senior for an interview again. He admired and admired such a powerful woman, but he was a little timid and did not dare to approach her.

When I thought about that day in front of the air-raid shelter, Captain Zheng picked him up and pushed him to the air-raid shelter, and I felt very embarrassed. I thought that I would have to make time for fitness in the future...

"The meeting has begun, get ready."

"Yes!" Guang Hailu recovered his thoughts, held a pen in one hand and opened the recorder with the other. What he and his colleagues have to do is to realistically and artistically write the performance of the generals after the war, showing their positive, optimistic and courageous mental outlook, thereby encouraging the survivors in the safe zone to face life again after the war.

Oh, and one more thing, this meeting also named this battle so that newspapers would have a good name to promote it.

The meeting began, and Lu Andong, the government representative and the person in charge of actual power, spoke: "Let's name this battle first. I propose that this battle be named a decisive battle of life and death. This is the first battle we have encountered since the establishment of the safety zone. This is the first large-scale mutant invasion, and it is also the first time that the Black Shadow has invaded the safe zone. "The Black Shadow is the cause of the destruction of the safe zone in the dream. In the dream, he escorts the experts and professors of the institute and other survivors with his remaining troops. Those who move to the safe zone of the sea of ​​clouds, but in other people's places, where is better than your own safe zone?

This victory is worth remembering.

"What do you think?"

Yu Heng looked at Lu Andong with a smile. This person...he had always suspected that he was the same person as Zheng Henli. He nodded: "I think it's very good. It's very exciting when I hear it."

"Okay, just call it that!"

"I also agree..."

It was passed unanimously, simply and directly.

At the meeting, naming this appetizer was followed by lengthy reports and work arrangements, focusing on a series of detailed discussions on post-war reconstruction and relief, army management and expansion, merit awards and subsidies, safety zone security, etc. All these will be recorded in clear and detailed terms (except for confidentiality), printed into newspapers and sent to every corner of the safety zone to let the public know that the safety zone is still there and the hope for the future is still there.

Regarding the meeting on that day, different generals mentioned it in their later memoirs. Professors also did a lot of research and agreed that those measures were very timely.

"The South China Sea Safety Zone has been prepared for danger in times of peace. During the construction process, it has never ignored the enemies outside. The athletes who have sharpened their swords for ten years and guarded the city wall day and night have stood up like javelins in the wind and rain. The first shot of the decisive battle of life and death. From then on, It started on the city wall. It lasted for one day and two nights, and the soldiers refused to retreat and suffered numerous casualties. They finally won and captured four black shadows alive, thus ending the decisive battle. "

Countless future generations of students looked at this period of history and all felt deep pride and glory. The South China Sea Safety Zone also began to become famous during that battle, and the shadow capture device also appeared for the first time. In the next few decades, the confrontation between humans and mutants will continue. Played an important role in the war of resistance against Japan.

In the history examination, the decisive battle of life and death is definitely the focus of the examination, and the round table meeting after the decisive battle is equally important. The leaders worked hard and held meetings all night. It is said that when the orderlies cleaned the room the next day, they found that the conference room was thickly caked with wax. layer.

But in fact, during the meeting that year, the lights in the conference room were on, and the power supply had been restored to normal. The meeting did not last all night. It ended at about four o'clock in the evening. Yu Heng really invited other generals to the Peace Hotel for a meal, which was considered a midnight snack and breakfast.

At the dinner table, everyone drank unbridled, singing and dancing, reciting poems and drinking... Alcohol stimulated the nerves, and the tense nerves were stretched. They were still alive! Alive! Fighting for life, every time you fight, you win by surviving!

"Drink!"

The wine glasses clinked, and the wine spilled on the table, splashing clear water droplets.

Dawn came again. Yu Heng squatted at the door and turned on the faucet to wash her face. She looked up and glanced to the east, stood up and walked in: "Sister Li, cook two pots of white porridge!"

In the houses and collective dormitories, the residents who had been huddled all night poked their heads out from under the beds, in the cabinets, and in the pots, extending their tentacles like snails to explore.

"Beep, beep--" The whistle sounded in the streets and alleys, and in every household. This was the morning whistle, which meant that everyone should get up and go to work. Half an hour after the whistle, the canteen would open for lunch.

"Really, it's safe?"

"The mutants are really gone!"

"Ahhh!! We are really safe!"

In the distance, smoke was rising from the canteen, and breakfast was about to be ready. A new day had arrived.
