Bring Interstellar to the end of the world

Chapter 16
The gunfire outside became increasingly sparse, and the sound of explosions also advanced toward the rear of the base.

There was a rumbling sound, the front door of the fence was opened by the invaders, and the armed vehicles drove into the base.

"Hey, that kid named Li Xiang, are you going to spend the night behind the container?"

Tang Yan got up from behind the container after hearing this, only to find that Zeng Hua had left the parts room to contact the people who had invaded the base, while Sanpao stayed to take care of him.

"Where are the Black Saints people?"

Sanpao looked north and said, "Run away."

The base of the Black Saints was transformed from a sanatorium built on a mountain, with several hills behind it. If they wanted to escape in the dark, the Pandaren Legion and the people from Gem City would have no way to wipe out the enemy.

As Sanpao walked out, he said proudly: "The base fell and a lot of key supplies were lost. Even if those guys can escape, they have lost the chance to make a comeback."

When Tang Yan came out of the accessories room, he saw a group of people wearing black combat uniforms, wearing tactical helmets, and holding assault rifles that had been modified to varying degrees in their hands. They got off a military transport truck at extremely fast speeds and headed towards the north. The battlefield rushes past.

It's hard to see clearly the characteristics of their equipment and weapon models in the darkness, but judging from their pace, appearance, and mode of action, they give people a very capable and professional feeling, which is completely incomparable to a ragtag group like the Black Saints.

"Are they... people from Gem City?"

Sanpao looked at him with surprise on his face: "You don't know who they are?"

Tang Yan said: "I'm a scavenger from Toyoshima."

The information he downloaded from Vault 1001 included a map of the mainland, and he knew that there was an inhabited island called Teshima 10 nautical miles south of the nearest coastline.

"That's a member of the Black Hand Mercenary Group." Zeng Hua walked over from the side and answered his question with a sullen face: "It is also the most elite mercenary organization within a radius of more than 100 kilometers of the Jewel City. The guards of the city, and bought these people at a high price, just to destroy the black saints in one fell swoop."

Tang Yan nodded, indicating that he understood.

It can be seen from Zeng Hua's words that the relationship between the Pandaren Legion and the Black Hand Mercenary Group is not harmonious...after all, there is a business conflict.

The Pandaren Legion is a half-gangster, half-mercenary model. Compared with a professional and elite group like the Black Hand Mercenary Corps, it is still inferior in terms of combat effectiveness.

"I have already told the legion commander about you, but unfortunately he is with the deputy governor of Gem City and does not have time to see you."

Tang Yan shook his head calmly.

Zeng Hua thought he was a little disappointed and felt neglected, so he explained from the side: "Don't worry, I'm in charge of everything."

Tang Yan felt that Zeng Hua's mature personality on the way to the Black Saints base was not entirely fake, but he was indeed a warm-hearted person.

At this time, a modified off-road vehicle drove in from the outside. A middle-aged man wearing a Chinese tunic suit and a bulletproof vest got out of the car. He glanced at the flames that suddenly rose from the northern hillside, and asked a person who was walking towards him. Said: "How?"

The man tapped the assistant computer on his left wrist a few times, shook his head and said, "I have searched all the computers in the base, but I have not found any usable information."

Tang Yan took a look at the personal health assistant phone that Han Xin gave him and found that it was exactly the same as the assistant phone of the man in front of him. He thought that this man with eyes might have come out of the shelter.

Thinking about it carefully, the refuge has a very complete teaching system and a wealth of knowledge reserves, and it is the most likely place in this wasteland to cultivate outstanding talents.

People who come out of the refuge will seek refuge in Gem City, and it is naturally a normal thing to be used by the governor.

But I don't know where Fan Chang, who caused the destruction of Vault 1001, was found, and whether he also joined Gem City.

Sanpao noticed the personal health assistant on his wrist and raised his eyebrows slightly.

Tang Yan glanced at the change in his expression and patted the outer shell of the personal health assistant: "I often wonder...if I picked up a broken assistant. Even so, it is my most valuable possession."

Cracks are clearly visible on the personal health assistant's outer screen.

It was the result of the bite of the mutated dog, but for San Pao and Zeng Hua, they took it for granted that it was a precious item found by scavengers walking in the wasteland.

Sanpao recovered his thoughts and looked at the Gem City executives and technical staff, but because of the distance, he could not see what was displayed on the PDA screen.

"What are they looking for?"

Zeng Hua said, "Who knows..."

Tang Yan felt that those people in Gem City should be looking for a way for the Prophet to trade with the outside world.

The reason why the Pandaren Legion attacked the Black Saints base was very simple. One was to expand the territory and kill the competitors.The second is to resolve past grudges.They must have done things like looting the properties of Gaojiazhuang by the Black Saints before, and they would undoubtedly offend the Pandaren Legion.

As the leader of Gemstone City, the governor has a bigger structure.

The Black Saints have robbed and killed many merchants in Gem City, and also invaded the governor's farm and stole the wife of a senior manager. However, this would neither break bones nor muscles in Gem City.

What the governor really cares about is how the black saints bypass the gem city to trade with the outside world.

The Black Saints are currently small and can be controlled easily. Once they are allowed to grow, there is no guarantee that the Prophet will not create another trade market within Gem City’s sphere of influence and end Gem City’s dominance in the peninsula. There is no doubt that it will It has had a great impact on the interest groups headed by the Governor.

In Tang Yan's view, this is the root cause of the governor's determination to eradicate the black saints.

After he entered the base of the Black Saints, he found that the weapons used by the bandits, the drinks they drank, and the values ​​of the prophets were not products of this continent, but seemed to come from overseas.

This has to make people suspect that the Prophet has interactions with overseas forces. For example, the Black Saints trade with organizations that own ocean-going ships.

If Gem City can defeat the Black Saints in one fell swoop and find relevant information, whether it is setting up an ambush to kill the ocean-going ships of overseas forces or opening up a maritime corridor, it will be beneficial and harmless to the development of Gem City.

Just when the three of them were thinking about their own thoughts, a burst of gunfire rang out.

It came not from the hillside where the Black Saints retreated to the north, but from outside the main entrance of the base.

Zeng Hua's face darkened, wondering whether he had been ambushed by the Black Saints, attacked from two sides by the enemy, or had he encountered a change in the situation where the mantis stalked the cicada and the oriole stalked behind him?

Soon, someone shouted from the front door.

It was hard to hear clearly under the cover of gunfire, but I still had a general idea of ​​what was happening outside the base.

They are living corpses, many living corpses...

The assault force composed of the Gem City guards, the black hand mercenaries, and the Pandaren Legion, let alone dozens of living corpses, even hundreds of living corpses are not a threat, but judging from the reaction of the guards at the gate, it is absolutely It's not the concept of one or two hundred living corpses.

The commotion continued at the front door, with rattling gunshots and occasional rumbles as grenades exploded outside the base.

The problem facing the vice-governor and the head of the pandaren army now is whether to close the gates and rely on the Black Saints base facilities to fight against the tide of living corpses, or to evacuate as soon as possible.

In just a few breaths, the signal flare representing the retreat order rose into the night sky.

The guards of Gem City quickly evacuated the base, and the roar of motorcycle engines and intensive gunfire could be heard outside the door.

Several modified pickup trucks belonging to the Pandaren Legion circled on the ground, ignoring the calls of Zeng Hua and Sanpao, and drove out of the base gate, leaving them behind.

"Damn it, we were abandoned." San Pao cursed while jumping on his feet.
