Chapter 280

Seeing the gun barrels aimed at them, the few people in front immediately cowered. Helplessly, they picked up the guns on the ground and, under the gaze of the gun barrels, walked to the side of the iron cage.

Watching those dense, rotting arms reaching in through the gaps in the steel pipes, these newcomers were immediately filled with regret. Why did they believe the other party's nonsense?

And the rebels looked gratefully at the prince who was sitting on the side, closing his eyes and resting. Fortunately, the prince opposed it; otherwise, they were afraid they would also have to face the zombies directly. If they were accidentally scratched by a zombie, their lives would be over.

With the addition of close-combat personnel, the current situation was much better. The zombies outside were constantly being shot, but the consequence was that everyone was left with only small pistols.

The soldiers looked at each other. By this time, everyone understood that it was time for bayonet fighting, but the few newcomers from before had all, without exception, been scratched by zombies.

So they all held their pistols and slowed down their rate of fire, fearing that the next person to engage in close combat with the zombies would be themselves.

Watching the crowd with no fighting spirit left, the commander was also at his wit's end. Although there weren't many zombies left outside, there were enough to give everyone a hard time.

Just at this moment, Prince Anthony opened his eyes. The gunfire in front had become sparse, clearly indicating that the ammunition had run out.

Anthony looked at the rebels surrounding him and said:

"It's time. We should go up and eliminate those soldiers. Levin, you take a team to incite the crowd, and the rest of you come with me to kill those soldiers."

"Prince, why don't I lead the team? Gunfire has no eyes; you are taking too much of a risk."

Anthony smiled: "I want to collect some interest from the Teutons first. You can go ahead with peace of mind!"

Seeing the prince say this, Levin, as his personal guard, couldn't say anything more. Instead, he took a few of the sharper rebels into the crowd and began to spread the news.

Anthony lifted the hood of his cloak. The moonlight spilled onto his resolute face, which did not soften the sharp angles of his features but instead added a touch of murderous intent.

Anthony looked around at the rebels and said:

"My people, we have finally taken the first step toward restoring our country. In our previous hiding, we have paid too much in blood and lives. Now is the time to make the enemy pay in blood. Charge forward bravely and slaughter the enemy; I am with you!"

The rebels suppressed their excitement and didn't shout out loud. With hearts full of hot blood, they quietly approached the soldiers in front with Prince Anthony.

Just at this moment, a loud shout came from the crowd.

"They have no bullets! If we kill them, we will be free!"

More and more people in the crowd responded, and this was like a signal. The rebels charged up first, and the followers behind followed closely.

The soldiers in front hadn't even reacted before they were pressed to the ground, and what awaited them was total darkness before their eyes.

And when the commander heard the shouting in the crowd, he knew something was wrong and hurriedly hid toward the door.

The remaining soldiers who couldn't dodge in time were soon submerged by the agitated crowd. At this time, people in the crowd were constantly recounting the hardships of being forced to build the base these days, as well as the pain of friends and family members losing their lives because of these soldiers.

People's anger was constantly being provoked. Even the crowd that had been rational before followed the crowd and rushed up. Without weapons and without technique, several people directly tackled one soldier, and others kept piling up behind them. The soldiers underneath were directly crushed to death.

At this time, the soldiers who had reacted picked up their pistols to fight back, but the ones in the lead were the fearless rebels. The charge did not stop, and the agitated crowd behind followed in response.

Even the captain led his crew to follow behind, howling as they charged forward, wanting to avenge the crew members who died at the banquet.

The commander looked at the crowd that had gone crazy and fired two shots, but found it didn't work, so he roared:

"Stop! You bunch of scum! If you don't stop, I'll open the door and let the zombies in. When that happens, none of us will survive."

But the commander's threat only provoked more people's anger. The crowd rushed forward without hesitation. The commander looked at the people with bulging veins and even felt that they were more terrifying than the zombies!

At this moment, the commander suddenly felt a pain in his back, and his face turned pale instantly. Frightened by the momentum of the crowd just now, he had actually retreated to the door.

The commander's face also became distorted. Since you won't let me live, then let's all die together!

Enduring the pain of the zombies' scratching, the pain in his heart was even worse. The commander angrily opened the gate of the iron cage. The zombies surged in like a tide.

The commander was the first to be hit by the zombies and was directly torn to pieces alive by the zombies' sharp claws. Even in death, a distorted smile hung on his face.

The soldiers heard the screams behind them, and when they turned back, they saw the incoming zombies. By then, it was too late to dodge, and there was no space to retreat.

Seeing the influx of zombies, everyone became panicked, and their hot blood was also cooled by the influx of zombies.

At this time, Prince Anthony, who was charging in the front, was the first to see the scene before him and hurriedly shouted:

"Close the door quickly! If we let more zombies in, we'll all die!"

But because there was still a group of soldiers in the way, trying to rush over to close the door was simply wishful thinking. At this time, David, who was among the soldiers, also saw this scene and hurriedly said:

"Let's put aside personal grudges for now and drive the zombies out first, otherwise everyone will die here.........."

"All soldiers who have been bitten, squeeze up and close the door. Other soldiers, attack the zombies that have come in. If we can survive, we will definitely help you take care of your families."

David's appearance gave the soldiers a backbone. The soldiers who had been bitten went against the flow. The few in the front were torn to pieces alive by the zombies, and blood was spilled all over the ground.

One after another, the remaining two soldiers rushed toward the door, but the gate was being pushed by the zombies, and to close it, they needed to push the zombies out.

But the strength of the two was no different from a mantis trying to stop a chariot in front of the zombie horde. Until the flesh and blood on their bodies were hollowed out, the two had only closed half of the gate.

The crowd behind felt their hearts go cold when they saw this scene. They didn't expect the zombies in this base to be so ferocious. Looking at it, they seemed to have evolved.

Having missed the opportunity, it was impossible to close the door again. Facing the zombies' attacks, everyone could only fight and retreat.

Just at this moment, a roar of an engine sounded in the night, and two headlights pierced the darkness and shone over.

The huge roar obviously attracted the attention of the zombies, and not just the zombies' attention, but also the attention of the surviving crowd.

Hearing the rapidly approaching roar, everyone saw hope on their faces. Soon, the vehicle arrived in front of the iron cage and blocked the door, preventing the zombies from surging in.
