Chapter 991 The second night, the miserable Qingang Shelter!(2/2)
But it's a pity.
He is a commander and a soldier at the same time, and the greatest rule of a soldier is to obey orders.
The senior management of the shelter unanimously decided to protect the remaining factory buildings or to prevent these undead from trampling on the reputation of Sunny Harbor Shelter and becoming a joke in the entire city.
They shouted the slogan: If you can kill them once or twice, why can't you kill them a hundred or a thousand times.
So stupid!
After Edmund gave the order, he couldn't help but curse secretly in his heart.
These old antiques have not been exposed to a truly cruel war for too long. Although they have vision and knowledge that ordinary people cannot match, these undead.
This thing is beyond the scope of what normal people can understand?!
Edmund made a rough calculation.
If the attack of the undead tonight remains the same as yesterday, then it will cost at least three thousand people to defend it.
The consumption of weapons and ammunition is even greater, which must be sufficient for a team of at least 20,000 people.
How many people are there in the entire industrial zone defense team?
About thirty thousand people.
Yesterday we paid the price of 5,000 people, and today we gained another 3,000 people.
Even if the team is full of iron men, it is absolutely impossible to turn a blind eye to a loss rate of more than 25%.
As for holding on today, what should we do tomorrow, and what should we do the day after tomorrow?
To be honest, Edmund hadn't thought about it at all.
Because after tonight, as long as there is even the slightest sign of the undead reviving, the entire defense line will definitely fall immediately.
Forcibly suppressed fear will spread throughout the camps like a super contagion.
"I'll go find the manager. If there's a fight, you can take command."
After assigning work to the deputy commander, Edmund walked down the city wall and walked into the industrial area.
As the most powerful force in the entire Qinggang City, the entrance and exit to the underground shelter are naturally not as secretive as other places.
Soon, Edmund came to a rectangular building like a bunker.
The exterior wall of the building is about thirty meters long and twelve meters high. On the front is an oversized alloy gate that is five meters thick, with a sci-fi gear pattern painted on it.
Starting from the 100 meters in front of the gate, inspection checkpoints were arranged one after another.
Many residents who fled from the industrial area yesterday gathered here, either setting up simple tents or sitting directly on the cold ground.
They were unable to obtain permission to return underground, probably because of the pedantic rules set by the old antique managers who were afraid that the undead would take the opportunity to invade the underground shelter.
"Commander Edmund, why are you back?!"
"Um"
Edmund pinched the badge on his chest and straightened it.
He did not answer the guard captain's question, but kept walking through the checkpoints with his head held high.
It wasn't until he reached the last level that he said softly:
"Has Master Hades left the laboratory? I want to report to him on the latest city defense situation!"
"Not yet. Not yet."
The guard captain in the sentry box quickly stood up and replied with a respectful expression.
Upon hearing this unexpected answer, Edmund felt a hint of disappointment on his face.
But this time, he did not choose to go back directly like before.
"Open the door, I want to go down and hold a referendum meeting."
"No, Lord Edmund, the deputy manager, Lord Tang En, said that in wartime, no one can pass through the downward passage."
Recognizing the face of the highest boss on the ground, the guard captain looked frightened when he refused.
They say that when gods fight, little devils suffer.
One is the commander of the entire industrial zone, and the other is the deputy manager of the underground shelter.
Before Master Hades came out of the laboratory, the two of them usually went about their own business and never interfered with each other.
But this unexpected attack by the undead broke this tacit understanding.
Edmund can be held responsible for the undead invading the underground, because the lightning wall has already been lost once, and the undead once invaded the industrial area last night and gained the upper hand. Those damn plunderers have trampled the Clear Harbor refuge.
So face.
But Tang En.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that he is not willing to take any responsibility for such a major "mistake."
Even if the neutralizing hydrogen bomb was secretly brought into the industrial zone because he wanted to hold a meeting.
"I want to convene a referendum meeting, and I don't need his consent."
"No, Lord Edmund, this is the unanimous request of all underground managers and every minister."
"What?"
Edmund held the pistol at his waist, and his small eyes narrowed into a line because of anger.
"Are they willing to take responsibility for my dead soldiers?!"
Completely remove the pot and divide the above ground and underground into two parts.
Are these guys crazy?
Aren't they afraid that the lightning wall will fall and the undead will blow up an entire industrial area before breaking into the ground?
All the tactical nuclear weapons that can be used within the authority have been thrown out, and the rest must be approved by Master Hades.
Before the "experiment" is over
This attitude will mean that the entire above-ground part will not receive the slightest support!
"This is the intention of the managers, and it is also the referendum opinion of every underground resident. The underground part has held a referendum from last night to today. 92% of the people chose to block the door, and only 8% chose to open the door."
"Edmund, you were also born underground. I believe you should know what this means."
"If you have other ideas, we will be responsible for conveying them."
As he spoke, the guard captain took out a tablet from the cabinet, which displayed two lines of data.
As he said, the red closing parties accounted for almost all the shares, and not all of the remaining 8% chose to open. Many people chose to abstain.
"Damn, what a bunch of old foxes who only think about themselves!"
"Master Hades will punish them, I promise, I promise!"
A rude roar echoed in front of the alloy gate, and all the nearby guards looked over, expressions flashing on their faces.
At this moment, Edmund had already imagined the group of people sitting in front of the screen, watching his helpless and angry appearance.
But they would never have thought of it.
Since you don’t want to play, then everyone should stop playing.
"Send my order to open the lightning wall and let those bastard wanderers in!"
"Yes, tell them."
Chapter completed!
