Chapter 644: Wide spread
The aftermath of the camp on the mountain is certainly important, and the rescue of the satellite village down the mountain is also urgent.
Compared to Tianma Mountain, the situation in the satellite village is much worse!
The houses in the village are not all newly built concrete structures. There are also some old earth-brick houses, and those houses almost suffered serious damage...
Fortunately, no one hid in that kind of broken house, and no one chose to use the earth-brick house as a residence. At most, it was used to store some unimportant debris, not even a warehouse.
But the broken door panels, window frames, tiles, and bricks caused no small damage to other houses and people...
The satellite village is not just a mess. The speed of the shock wave is quite fast. Many people didn't even receive the news, let alone hide. Many people were bruised and bleeding, some were smashed and fainted on the spot, and some had broken arms and legs. The wailing sound rose one after another...
The zombie group attack is certainly dangerous, but this kind of disaster, which doesn't know whether it is a natural disaster or a man-made disaster, is not much better. Blood splashed on the broken walls, people who didn't know whether they were dead or alive fell in the ruins and rubble, and the crying of children drifted in the village...
Fortunately, the stock of zombie thalamus is sufficient. The task of the Yama Legion crowd is to send medicine to the seriously injured at the first time. This is not only a rescue but also an opportunity to stabilize the hearts of the people.
When people know that the Yama Legion has miraculous medicine that can save lives and heal wounds, their sense of belonging to Tianma Mountain is further improved.
Treating the wounded is only part of the aftermath work. There are many other things to deal with. Dinner is definitely not going to be eaten. Everyone is busy in a tight schedule.
The darkness on Tianma Mountain didn't last long, and it regained light in less than an hour. The lighting equipment was a bit rough, but it was enough.
The location of the zombie generator was very lucky and was not completely damaged. The zombies were out of track due to the shock wave, and they could return to work after a slight adjustment. But re-setting the lines was a very cumbersome process. Jia Shiqin directly connected several high-power lighting lamps next to the generator.
The lamp post was as thick as a thigh, almost illuminating the entire Tianma Mountain, even the Jingxinyuan at the highest point was shrouded in light, and even the backlit places dissipated the darkness because of the diffraction of light.
The satellite village was not as lucky as Tianma Mountain. The production of the zombie generators behind was relatively rough, and none of them withstood this round of shock wave. Not only were they broken, but the zombies pulling the power generation were also released. Fortunately, Zhang Su reminded them in time, and someone killed the zombies at the first time, otherwise the consequences would be simply unimaginable.
The zombie generator is gone, and there are fuel generators. Temporary use is not under pressure.
Humans need light. Working in the dark is always stumbling and makes people feel great pressure, but after having light, the situation turns for the better, and the whole situation is much better.
The leaders of several branches were not injured in this shock wave, only because they were the people who received the news at the first time. As beneficiaries, these people were also at the forefront of the aftermath work.
Whether it was a former leader or a combat pillar, after seeing Zhang Su personally go down the mountain to participate in the rescue, no one dared to stand by and watch.
Zhang Su is not the kind of leader who only holds a big megaphone. He not only works in the rescue work but also uses his brain. While doing things on his hands, he issues instructions to arrange the tasks of other personnel, and both muscles and brain are working.
Facts have proved how important a good brain is in a major accident! Many people are confused in a noisy and chaotic environment. They haven't lost their ability to act, they just temporarily lost their ability to think. As long as someone gives accurate instructions, they can perform tasks well.
Until nine o'clock in the evening, after four or five hours of aftermath, Tianma Mountain has gradually become quiet, and the satellite village has also restored order.
"This disaster caused 128 seriously injured people, 275 slightly injured, and 2 deaths. Both were elderly people. When they were found, they had no breath. The seriously injured all took medicine. Considering physical factors, some slightly injured members were also distributed medicine. The gold content of scientific research is still rising. If there is no help from medicine, the number of deaths will soar!"
Tianma Mountain parking lot, in the shadow of the fire-breathing zombie box truck, Yu Wen is reporting the situation to Zhang Su. The two are sitting on crooked and damaged chairs, each holding a cigarette.
According to several people with medical experience, if there was no medicine provided by the Yama Legion to save the wounded tonight, at least fifty people would die, and many people would gradually wither away because they couldn't survive in the future...
For a camp with a total population of nearly 800, the death of 50 people is absolutely a shocking number!
Yu Wen saw Zhang Su just smoking and not talking, so he continued: "The loss of supplies has not been counted yet, but judging from the visual situation, the loss of food will not exceed 5%. It is gratifying. As for materials in other aspects, the degree of damage ranges from 5% to 20%, all within the acceptable range."
"But there is one thing that is very annoying. The zombie corpses piled down the mountain were scattered. Some flew hundreds of meters away and fell to the opposite farmland. Re-piling is a process that consumes manpower." "In addition, 36 houses in No. 1 village suffered varying degrees of damage, of which 10 sets cannot live for the time being. The situation in No. 2 village is better, 25 sets are damaged, and 5 sets cannot live.
No. 3 village is the most serious because of geographical factors. More than 50 farmhouses were damaged, and the number of houses that cannot be lived in is 32. These do not calculate old earth-brick houses. Those earth-brick houses are not one in ten."
"Whew!"
Zhang Su exhaled a puff of smoke, looked at the companions who were still busy between the houses
"There's no need to worry about that. Originally, each village could house about two thousand people. Even if some houses were damaged, there's still more than enough room to settle over two hundred people. Besides, I've already led people to handle it, though I haven't had time to re-register them yet. Also..."
"The newly installed intercom relay station has also run into problems. The guards returning from Xidaying Village brought news that there were no casualties on their side, but the river channel has piled up with quite a bit of trash. The collapse of the houses isn't serious; it's likely because Xidaying Village has better economic conditions, so the materials used for building were more solid."
"The situation on the way back was a bit bad. Some trees were blocking the road, so we had to walk through the fields..."
"The situation at several guard posts isn't optimistic, especially the guard tower on the east side..."
Yu Wen collected information from all directions, reporting it one by one.
"You've worked hard, old Yu!"
Zhang Su waited for Yu Wen to finish speaking, patted him on the shoulder, looked toward the east, and murmured in a low voice: "Today's explosion was too terrifying."
"It must have been that thing that exploded, right?"
Yu Wen closed his notebook and also lit a cigarette. As a core high-level member of the camp, he hadn't participated in the research but still knew some secrets.
"Yeah! The thing we feared most finally happened. You must have smelled it too; the shockwave carried that unique, faint fragrance. That's the smell of the raw venom!"
"I smelled it. I really don't know which unlucky bastard set a venom zombie on fire. Ignorance is fearless."
Yu Wen sighed powerlessly.
After learning that zombies become like they are possessed by gods when set on fire, Tianmayu basically banned the use of fire attacks against zombies. Later, they even discovered that mutant zombies could be used to extract explosives, further reinforcing the Yanluo Legion members' principle of not using fire attacks.
It's just a pity that not everyone is like them. There are still people who think using fire to burn zombies is very easy. Even if the zombies go crazy after catching fire, as long as some traps are set in advance, the danger can still be avoided.
Under normal circumstances, there is indeed no problem, but abnormal situations always arise! Now look at this...
A large purple flower bloomed brilliantly in the sky, not only killing itself but also causing damage to other survivor camps several kilometers away...
It wasn't just Tianmayu that was affected. In Qincheng, only the survivors from the North City District evacuated to Tianmayu. There were other survivor camps in the central and south city. The inexplicable shaking of the earth and mountains, followed by the shockwave, shattered the window glass directly, and people were left numb.
Further south, other counties and districts also felt it to varying degrees. The shockwave was weakened by the urban buildings, and by the time it reached the south, its power was greatly reduced, causing no damage to those camps, but it inevitably led to endless speculation among the people.
The biggest problem is Putao Valley!
The massive zombie horde, which was originally in a delicate balance, became obviously restless after the shockwave swept through. The survivor forces that received the news were in a state of distress.
