Chapter 54: The Road to Revival
"Haha, how dare I neglect General Li's instructions? The First Army of 2,000 cyborgs has been assembled. All of them are transformed from mutants and divided into four parts: Mechanical Legion, Insect Legion, Orc Legion, and Strengthened Legion. After memory cleansing and transformation, they have extremely strong combat effectiveness and are immune to the T virus. They only obey orders and have no human emotions. They are perfect killing tools!" Wu Qiang said with a laugh, as if he did not see Li Zhenhui's actions.
Li Zhenhui nodded with satisfaction, and smiled warmly again, saying, "That's good. If we can accomplish this, we will be the heroes of all mankind, and the glorious revival of the Red Star Republic is just around the corner. How can the technological power of mankind be resisted by those monsters?"
Wu Qiang also smiled and said, "What the general said is true. The reason why humans suffered heavy losses before was entirely because the virus infected them too quickly and caught them off guard. Now that the surviving humans have recovered, what we need to do next is to use our powerful war machines to kill all those monsters and take back our home."
"But..." Wu Qiang rubbed his hands and said, "The number of mutants as the vanguard is still too small. Although a lot of mutants have been captured through secret channels, the number is still not enough because the test loss rate is more than half. What's more, the gene optimization project serving the leaders requires more test subjects..."
Li Zhenhui waved his hand and said, "That's not a problem at all. Immediately announce the news in all fortresses, saying that mutants are not immune to the virus, but the onset of the T virus is delayed. After the onset, they will become more powerful zombies. In order to prevent it from happening, all mutants must contact the government for treatment. Those who disobey the order will be killed without mercy ! In addition, if anyone identifies or captures the mutants who disobey the order and hide, there will be a generous reward."
Hearing this, Wu Qiang said again: "If the President stops us..."
"Hmph, what president? Zhou Tianmin is just a temporary president. There's no need to be afraid of him. Without the army, what big waves can he make? Just go ahead and do it. The military will support you with all its strength!" After Li Zhenhui finished speaking, he smoothed his black hair and smiled grimly.
"That's good, that's good. Thank you General Li for your support. The general is dedicated to the country and the people and is not afraid of power. He is truly a real man! I would like to thank the general on behalf of the 80 million surviving people of the Red Star Republic!" Wu Qiang smiled flatteringly.
"For the future of mankind, this little thing doesn't matter." Li Zhenhui curled his lips and said, "Then I'll leave these things to Mr. Wu." After that, he turned around and walked out.
Wu Qiang looked at Li Zhenhui's receding back, and his flattering face gradually changed into a grim smile. He pressed a button on the table, and a holographic image of a human body immediately appeared. The person in the image was Li Zhenhui! However, in this perspective image, there seemed to be groups of filamentous parasites on Li Zhenhui's brain, spine, and limbs, slowly wriggling inside!
"Black Snake, how did this good-for-nothing become the top person in the military and control the entire Red Star Provisional Government? However, being an idiot also has its advantages. At least, I don't have to worry about test subjects in the future. The mutants that are captured continuously should be enough for me to play with for a long time..." Wu Qiang chuckled and said to the screen in front of him, "Oh, and there's this kid..."
As he said this, he casually clicked on the holographic screen, and Lifeng's photo was immediately called up. This photo was taken by Lifeng at the Steel City Biological Research Institute that day. Between his eyebrows, one can see his almost crazy anger! Then, the artificial intelligence "Black Snake" automatically made a wanted order with Lifeng's photo, and sent it to the world through the well-connected information network!
All human fortresses and survivor shelters will receive this information.
On the wanted poster, under Lifeng's photo, it was noted: "Extremely dangerous, intelligent zombie, disguised as a human and haunting various places. Anyone who provides clues will be promoted to the rank of major in the Republic, battalion commander. Anyone who captures him alone will be promoted to the rank of colonel in the Republic, division commander. Anyone who kills him will be promoted to the rank of lieutenant colonel in the Republic, regiment commander."
"Now, what will happen to the toys?" Wu Qiang thought excitedly as he leaned back in his chair comfortably.
This day was a day of joy for the surviving people of the Red Star Republic. The government finally decided to use the strongest combat power to eliminate those hateful zombies and take back their original homeland!
For mutants, this day marks the beginning of their suffering!
Moreover, for ordinary people, the mutants that they originally feared and hated have now been exposed. It turns out that these guys are actually potential zombies! Who knows when they will turn into zombies and suddenly eat up the people around them? It is too dangerous!
For a time, the mutants who were once envied and envied became the rats that everyone wanted to kill. A large number of mutants were picked out and sent to the fortress governments in various places. And those mutants who were hiding were constantly reported, caught like criminals, and sent to the government army. Especially after the government's reward policy was introduced, there were even bounty hunters who specialized in catching mutants!
At the same time as the large-scale capture operation was launched, humans launched a fierce offensive against zombies.
After getting a respite and re-establishing order, humans pulled all kinds of heavy weapons that had been silent for a long time back to the front line, swept the zombies wandering in the wilderness, and at the same time began to launch a fierce attack on the city ruins occupied by zombies!
Missiles, long-range artillery, rocket launchers, bombers, etc., all the heavy firepower that could still be used were pulled out.
When the outskirts of a city were covered by artillery fire and air strikes, an army of modified humans would immediately rush in for the final cleanup. In just three days, in the tentative attack, the zombie hordes on the outskirts of three cities had been wiped out, and the zombies in the city did not react violently.
What surprised and relieved humans was that, according to satellite monitoring, the zombies in these cities were no longer organizing counterattacks. Instead, they gathered together in the cities, and no one knew what they were doing.
These zombies were basically eliminated without any resistance.
What really gave humanity the upper hand in the counterattack were the artificial satellites in orbit that could still be controlled!
The most timely and comprehensive enemy dynamics allow humans to avoid the activities of large groups of super zombies in time and launch devastating attacks. In large-scale wars, the role of information is self-evident.
For a time, the Red Star Republic's Revival Army was unstoppable!
