Chapter 1 Slaughter After the Gunfire Stopped

After the gunfire stopped, the mountain manor was silent. Everyone, whether soldiers or survivors, was staring at the battlefield piled with flesh and blood!

It was the corpses of tens of thousands of people, appearing before their eyes. Among them were some wounded who hadn't died, and some lucky ones whose bodies weren't shattered, who had turned into zombies.

This kind of scene, probably no one had ever seen before, and they were watching these people scurrying around the battlefield like headless flies. In the end, they were either trampled to death or beaten to death...

Witnessing the deaths of tens of thousands of people before their very eyes, the impact was something ordinary people couldn't withstand. Even the soldiers couldn't help but tremble.

"Everyone! You've all seen it, right? Lin Qiang can even annihilate those who surrender to him, and even some of his own soldiers are among them!"

Seeing the fear and trembling in the soldiers' eyes, Duan Lei picked up the loudspeaker and said to them:

"So, once we are defeated, what you are seeing now will be our ending. Do you want that? Do you want your families to become pieces of meat mixed together with you?"

"Never!!!"

A soldier roared, his eyes bloodshot.

"Never!!!"

The other soldiers also roared!

"Then… fight to the death!"

Duan Lei pointed to Lin Qiang's army and shouted!

"Fight to the death! Fight to the death! Fight to the death!!!"

All the soldiers shouted together, raising their weapons, their voices like thunder rolling across the sky...

"Not bad! The people on the other side are very powerful! If only they could be used by me!"

Listening to the roar coming from the distance, Lin Qiang narrowed his eyes and muttered to himself.

The reason he ordered the annihilation of all who surrendered was partly to discard these useless people, and partly to intimidate.

In his opinion, the opposite side was a base ruled by women. Seeing so many people being brutally murdered in front of them, they would definitely be scared out of their wits, and might not even be able to pick up their weapons.

At that time, as long as he moved the mortars forward and fired a round of shells at the mountain manor, he could remind them of the tragic deaths of those people, instantly losing their fighting spirit, and the mountain manor base would be easily obtained.

But now it seemed that his goal had not been achieved. At least, judging from the roar coming from the distance, the people in the mountain manor had not lost their fighting spirit.

This was definitely not something a woman could do. Just the slaughterhouse in front of them, as if it was Shura hell, was enough to make that woman lose her mind. It would be good enough if she didn't go crazy, where would she have the energy to boost morale?

"It seems that the intelligence wasn't good enough!"

Lin Qiang frowned, tapping his fingers on the armrest of the chair. He suddenly regretted that he had given the order to kill all the surrendering people, including those soldiers.

Killing them was meant to deter the people in the mountain manor base, to achieve the goal of easily taking down the mountain manor base, but since that goal hadn't been achieved, he should have let those who surrendered pass by and watch from behind.

That way, those soldiers wouldn't have to die, and could still be used as cannon fodder, letting them charge towards the mountain manor base first, and there would be no need to waste the previous ammunition.

Now, with one miscalculation, he had lost both his wife and his army. Not only had he killed the soldiers who could have been used as cannon fodder, but he had also wasted a lot of ammunition!

Actually, this couldn't be blamed on Lin Qiang's intelligence system. His intelligence system was actually very good. At least, Lin Qiang knew all about Duan Lei's movements.

But before this, Duan Lei was just taking Duan Xue, Tian Ya, and Fatty, these four people, to hunt zombies in the city, and had no chance to show his talent at all, so those who monitored them naturally couldn't see anything.

Especially since Duan Lei was a mental ability user, he rarely took action, and mostly used firearms for long-range shooting, so they didn't know Duan Lei's abilities at all. Even in the intelligence sent to Lin Qiang, Duan Lei was just the most insignificant existence in the team.

Lin Qiang wasn't fooled by this information, because the information stated very clearly that the other three all followed Duan Lei's lead. If this young guy really didn't have any ability, would others listen to him?

However, Duan Lei was too young after all, so even if Lin Qiang thought that he shouldn't be that simple, he didn't take it too seriously. And now, Lin Qiang finally realized that all of this might be because of the little guy that he hadn't paid attention to!!!

"Mortars, move forward, the target is the gate of the mountain manor. Be careful not to blow up that car!"

After figuring it out, a hint of ruthlessness flashed in Lin Qiang's eyes, and he gave the order.

Even now, he still wanted to grab that war chariot. To him, that war chariot was even more important than the mountain manor base. After all, his initial goal was the war chariot.

His subordinates had seen with their own eyes that after Duan Lei and the others cleaned up a shopping mall, they moved most of the goods in the mall into that car.

Therefore, even without going inside to see, Lin Qiang could guess that this car must have internal space, just like the space rings in fantasy novels.

In the apocalypse, what a huge portable space represented, no one couldn't imagine. And if Lin Qiang also knew that there were many rooms in this space war chariot, he probably wouldn't even want the mountain manor base.

And now, although the rhythm of the attack was not quite the same as he had expected, since the war had already started, it couldn't be half-hearted. No matter what, he had to take down the mountain manor, seize that car and this base!

"President Lin, are you wanting that car?"

Hearing Lin Qiang's order, Zhao Dahai asked carefully.

"Yes! That car is strange, I want to study it!"

Lin Qiang nodded, not hiding his purpose.

"Then we can do this, don't launch an attack first, just send someone over to tell them that our purpose is not the mountain manor base, but that car. As long as they are willing to give us that car, we will leave immediately!"

Zhao Dahai said:

"As long as we send the message, whether they are willing to give us the car or not, it will be beneficial to us! If they give us the car happily, after we receive the car, we can continue to attack the mountain manor completely.

Moreover, at that time, because the car is already in our hands, we have no scruples at all, and we can even directly use shells to flatten the opponent's walls!"

"Then... what if they don't want to give us the car? What benefits will it bring us?"

Lin Qiang seemed to be a little interested in Zhao Dahai's words, turned his head and looked at him, asking...
