Chapter 88: Recruitment

Xie Tian stared at the middle-aged foreigner with a puzzled look on his face. After confirming that the e2 was dead, he hurriedly ran towards the foreigner. When he arrived, he saw how big the sniper rifle he was holding was, at least 1...4 meters long, and it was obvious that it was not an ordinary sniper rifle.

"Thank you for the shot at the critical moment just now." Xie Tian reached out to the other party, and the other party shook hands politely. Xie Tian asked in confusion: "Are you an American soldier?"

"Yes." The other party nodded and smiled: "I am a Marine. The fleet was supposed to carry out missions near the Taiwan Strait. After the zombies broke out, our fleet suffered a catastrophe. I docked in Shantou with my lifeboat, so I escaped all the way."

Xie Tian suddenly realized it. After thanking him again, he introduced himself. The Marine was very polite and said, "My name is Eric."

Xie Tian stared at the sniper rifle in the other party's hand and kept watching. Eric handed the sniper rifle to Xie Tian very politely and said, "Barrett m82a1 sniper rifle, the best anti-equipment rifle in the Marine Corps standard equipment."

"No wonder..." Xie Tian was shocked. This sniper rifle was very powerful and had a much larger caliber than an ordinary gun. Only such guns that can deal with armor can kill e2 with one shot.

Eric said lightly: "I originally thought this gun was very unpractical under the current situation, so I kept dismantling it and putting it in the gun box. It took some time to assemble it temporarily, otherwise, I should have shot the zombie earlier. However, I was really powerless to die the two soldiers, so everything happened too quickly."

Xie Tian nodded to express his understanding and said, "When these zombies are solved, I will definitely give you two drinks!" After that, the man had already rushed to the shooting tower where the accident happened before, and dealt with the corpse on the tower, and then someone carried the soldier with the injured leg to Qiao's medical room.

Du Yuewei stood there without any movement. She raised her gun and had already raised her hand, staring at E2 lying on the ground not far in front of her. Xie Tian had no time to care about her. She commanded the other soldiers to fight back bravely, and arranged Eric to the roof of the General Control Building to guard against the wall. Although Eric was not under Xie Tian's management, she agreed very readily.

At this time, more incendiary bombs were made. The soldiers threw incendiary bombs and turned the entire outer sea of ​​fire into a sea of ​​fire. With precise point shooting, the zombies could no longer make any waves. Soon, the gunshots became more and more sparse, and fewer and fewer zombies were alive. In the end, after several hours, Xie Tian and the others solved all these zombies.

Due to the huge movement just now, the zombies in the entire industrial area were basically attracted, and the zombies that came out of the city were all solved. The blocking battle lasted for several hours and finally came to an end.

During the entire battle, only two soldiers were lost in the safety zone, and two other soldiers had broken their legs, and thousands of zombies were wiped out. The results were very significant, which also allowed everyone to see the power plant's defense ability when facing zombies.

The entire battle consumed a lot of bullets and gasoline. All the gasoline in Du Yuewei's convoy was consumed almost all, and most of the ammunition, which was not much in the army, was used up in this battle. Shunzi did not report this situation to Xie Tian, ​​but to the Saiyans. Xie Tian knew the importance of ammunition. If the bullets were consumed, then for another zombie siege, hundreds of people in the safe area could only face the zombies with machetes. So he immediately decided to organize a search operation as soon as possible and go to the city to find the ammunition and medicine left by the armed police and the police.

This time, there were more than 120 survivors entering the safe zone. It is said that these people all came here from near Shantou. However, when they were in Fuzhou, they were exploring and moving forward all the way, so they went off the direction and arrived in the south of Fengcheng. They happened to find the beacon of the power plant, so they determined that there was a safe zone here and rushed over.

Xie Tian was very glad that these survivors were very united and dared to take risks. The scene where those people were reluctant to enter the power plant just now made Xie Tian highly appreciate these people. Having such a team joined was a great thing for Xie Tian himself and the newly established safety zone.

It was already dark, and it was a bit cloudy, so Xie Tian invited these people to the staff cafeteria lobby in the dormitory area. Xie Tian needed to communicate with them briefly, tell the other party openly about the situation in the safe area, and then see if the other party is willing to join.

Xie Tian asked Li Yang to provide lighting and electricity to the canteen through the walkie-talkie. Because there was only coal burning, they had never opened the staff canteen. However, the lobby on the first floor of the staff canteen was large and could accommodate at least a thousand people, so it was most appropriate to talk to these people there, otherwise they would not even be able to see the faces outside and could not tell any clues.

Li Yang and several engineers took flashlights to connect the lighting circuit of the canteen to the power supply cable of the generator. Then, the entire first-floor lobby was clear. Xie Tian called Xie Xiaofei and instructed: "Take all these people to the canteen and sit for a while. I forgot that there are a lot of cigarettes in our place. I took out a few good cigarettes to entertain. I went to wash the blood stains on my body. They were all made when I moved the corpse just now. They were fishy and smelly."

Xie Xiaofei nodded quickly and said, "Brother Xie, just leave these to me. You can do it first."

"Yes." Xie Tian smiled helplessly and said, "Let Du Yuewei and others go there too, they have just arrived."

"good."

Xie Tian changed into work clothes from the coal mine, then wiped the blood stains on his body, and then returned to the cafeteria. At this time, two groups of people who arrived at the safety zone one after another had already sat down in the cafeteria. Xie Tian walked in, looked around for a week, and said, "After the fierce battle just now, welcoming you on behalf of the three hundred people in the safety zone."

"Thank you..." Suddenly someone called Xie Tian in surprise. Xie Tian looked up and was shocked.

The person who called her was a girl. Although she looked a little sloppy, Xie Tian could still recognize her. Chen Jing, who had been with her girlfriend for two years in college, both of them went to school in Yangcheng, but they were not in the same school. She met after a friend. After two years of love, the two were once passionate, dull, and boring. In the end, she broke up peacefully because her personality was really inappropriate. No one was sorry, and no one was in a quarrel. She never met again after the breakup, but she didn't expect that she would meet here today.

Xie Tian once wondered in his heart that since the end of the world, for so long, he has never met a former acquaintance. Today he met it, and he has such an embarrassing identity. This coincidence is better than not.

But the other party had already recognized him and should have responded with politeness, so Xie Tian gritted his teeth and waved his hand easily, saying, "Chen Jing, what a coincidence."

"Yes." Chen Jing smiled sweetly and said happily: "I really didn't expect to see you here."

Xie Tian was a little embarrassed at first, but seeing the other party's calm appearance, he knew that he had thought too much. After breaking up for so long, the girl didn't feel embarrassed. Why did he, a big man, get shy?

Xie Tian smiled self-deprecatingly, exchanged some greetings with Chen Jing casually, then walked to the front of the canteen and said to everyone: "There is something I need to emphasize that this safe area is not controlled by the government and the military, but was spontaneously formed by us..."

Immediately, Xie Tian repeated what he said to Du Yuewei. When nearly 120 people heard about the management of Nanchang Security Zone today, they all seemed unbelievable. Du Yuewei stood up and said loudly: "We came here the day before you. We went to Nanchang Security Zone before. The situation there was indeed as Xie Tian said. The management was very harsh. We were going to bypass Nanchang and continued north. By chance, we arrived here and felt that it was fair and humane to treat survivors here, so we decided to stay here. There was no lie in what I said. If you doubt it, you can go to Nanchang to take a look. Then you will know if what I said is true."

Chen Jing stood up, shook her hands constantly, and said with a smile: "I believe Xie Tian, ​​he is still very sincere. Xie Tian, ​​I chose to stay, but for the sake of your old friend, you must take care of me more."

"Old friend..." Xie Tian suddenly felt relieved in his heart. Yes, it was not easy to meet again with fate. In addition, the two of them had fallen in love with each other, but had never hurt each other. This friendship, coupled with the current end-of-life environment, is naturally considered an old friend. Xie Tian laughed and said, "Chen Jing, because you are my old friend, you can't be special. Otherwise, what I just said was fairness and justice, wouldn't it be a slap in the face?"

The jokes between the two made the others feel a lot more relaxed. A middle-aged man sitting next to Eric stood up and said to Xie Tian: "Our team has always helped and supported each other, so there is no leader who said that although my personal decision cannot represent everyone's decision, I decided to stay."

Eric muttered for a moment with an English-speaking young man beside him, raised his hand and said in English: "I'll stay too!"

"And me!"
