Doomsday Mechs: Starting with a Manufacturing Army

Yuncheng City.

Within the headquarters.

Commander Wu also received a call from the Army Headquarters in the Capital Region while in the operations room.

After listening to the content.

He nodded.

"Understood, I'll get started right away."

After hanging up the phone.

Commander Wu immediately relayed the order.

"Deploy all available heavy firepower units to the Lotus District to cooperate with Chen Dasheng and the others. We must rescue Jiang Yi unharmed!"

"If anything happens to you, don't bother coming back!"

"yes!"

"..."

The original purpose of rescuing talents in various important fields was to build up the country's reconstruction, rescue, and military capabilities.

However, as the rescue efforts of the Yuncheng Military Region commenced.

Jiang Yi's message was relayed to the higher-ups by Fei Bozhong.

At this moment, the 19th Bureau of National Security and the Army have begun to mobilize as many resources as possible to rescue this AI robot engineer whose abilities are nothing short of freakish.

In a short time.

On the streets of Yuncheng City.

Countless people saw tanks, armored vehicles, and helicopters constantly passing by their neighborhoods.

Fighter jets even flew overhead.

At this point, nearly half of the urban residential areas in Yuncheng City had been cleared and rescue operations were underway.

But half of them are still in dire straits.

Many people were shocked by what they saw.

He thought they were there to rescue him, but when he saw they were just passing by, he couldn't help but start cursing.

"Damn it! A bunch of corrupt officials! The people are all dying, don't they know how to save them?"

"With so many troops, are we just supposed to wait to die?"

"..."

"Heavens above! Why, why was I born in this country?"

Many people even took out their phones and started recording videos with background music.

"May I ask about the celestial palace? I wonder when we will meet again?"

"My heart yearns to return home, and I will fly over mountains and passes..."

"..."

Then, accompanied by a poignant and sarcastic caption, it was posted online.

Suddenly, the internet was filled with talk of impending collapse.

Within the headquarters.

When Commander Wu learned that public opinion was starting to spread online, he was immediately overwhelmed with a headache.

"Are these people just bored and have nothing better to do? The rescue time and plan have already been announced, why are they rushing us like this?"

As the current commander-in-chief of the rescue efforts in Yuncheng, he immediately gave orders to those around him.

"Restrict those statements and find a reason to publicly explain."

"But... Commander, won't they say we're not free to speak?"

"Bullshit!"

Commander Wu angrily rebuked the female soldier who was holding the folder.

"What kind of time is this? There are idiots who believe such outrageous statements, and you call that freedom? This is to prevent these moronic remarks from spreading and causing panic! Go now!"

"Yes."

The capable female soldier nodded and immediately went down to contact the relevant departments to impose restrictions.

Looking at the various large screens in the command center, Commander Wu sighed.

The reason I didn't say it earlier was to save Jiang Yi.

This is not only to prevent Jiang Yi's information from being investigated by those with ulterior motives, thus preventing certain forces from discovering anything amiss.

This was also to avoid causing a greater public outcry.

After all, it takes so many people to save one person, especially someone who has been in a mental hospital.

It's hard to say that some kind of "Celestial Dragon" rhetoric will appear online again.

Although during this period, due to the sudden arrival of the apocalypse, there was indeed no time to deal with some corrupt people.

However, when it comes to things like stirring up trouble, the public has always been extremely skeptical, basically regardless of whether it's true or false.

……

Inside the residential community.

Although Company Commander Chen also received the message to protect Jiang Yi with all his might.

But they were just ordinary troops, and in such an extreme environment, their role was really limited.

Therefore, it can only protect ordinary residents who hide inside apartment buildings.

In front of the main entrance on the first floor of the apartment building.

"Company Commander Chen, you must protect them. As long as I can get out, I will make sure my husband gives you money."

"Okay, okay."

Company Commander Chen, holding his gun, moved to the side with a hint of disgust.

"You should go back inside right away, lest something bad happen."

This woman, who reeks of stench, is actually Jiang Yi's ex-wife?

After a brief questioning, Company Commander Chen learned Xu Qingqing's identity.

For Jiang Yi's sake, he also planned to take better care of Xu Qingqing, the family member of the mission target.

After all, the child in this woman's arms was Jiang Yi's.

It was because it was too dark, and Company Commander Chen and his men were wearing night vision goggles.

If he takes out a flashlight and shines it on, he will find out.

Xu Qingqing was holding a black man in her arms.

at this time.

Of the more than seventy men led by Company Commander Chen, only forty-odd remained, and nearly half of them had run out of ammunition, leaving them with only daggers or makeshift weapons like shovels and long sticks.

"ah!!!"

At that moment, a scream rang out.

A riot suddenly broke out inside the building.

Immediately afterwards, the building began to shake, and countless people desperately ran downstairs, resulting in numerous stampedes.

"Zombies! Zombies!!"

"Someone has been infected!!"

Upon hearing this, Company Commander Chen and his men's pupils constricted.

"Oh no! Close the door quickly!"

"Go and close the back door!"

As he spoke, he pulled Xu Qingqing out and quickly joined the others in using tools to close the first-floor door.

"If these people come out, we won't have enough bullets. They'll just be waiting to die anyway. This neighborhood can't be allowed to descend into chaos."

"Our energy is limited, and our top priority is to prevent the situation from deteriorating further."

Before long, Company Commander Chen and his men locked the gate.

"Damn it! Open the door!!"

"Open the door! Open the door!!"

"Waaaaah! Open the door!!"

The sounds of men and women begging for mercy and cursing rang out.

Looking at those people who were in despair, Company Commander Chen bowed heavily.

"I'm sorry, I will voluntarily go to court for trial later, but you really can't come out."

"Something terrible has happened!"

At this moment, one of the five people responsible for closing the back door came tumbling back, shouting in a tearful voice.

"The back door was breached! They're all dead!"

Company Commander Chen's pupils contracted, and he immediately gave the order, "Go to the back door!"

"What should I do?"

Xu Qingqing, who was holding a baby in one arm, suddenly grabbed Chen, the company commander who was about to face his death, and said anxiously.

"I'm Jiang Yi's ex-wife, you have to protect me!"

"you……"

Company Commander Chen wanted to curse.

However, considering the other party's status, he swallowed his words and said with some resentment.

"Take this and find a place to hide. Be careful."

He handed over his pistol, which had three bullets left.

Then he led his men to the back of the building, intending to block the back door and force the zombies back, trapping them inside.

Xu Qingqing looked at the gun in her hand, hesitated for a moment, and then followed.

She's going to die sooner or later on her own, so she might as well use Jiang Yi's name to get these soldiers to protect her.

Anyway, all the grievances she's suffered these past few days are owed to her by Jiang Yi.
