The Scavengers

July 10th noon

Before Shangguanru and the others found out Xue Lihong's identity, they discovered something even more irritating.

Under Xue Lihong's little suggestion, Major General Zhang left two tanks behind, one with the muzzle aimed at the supplies they brought out, and one parked behind the supplies, with the muzzle aimed at the city wall of the base.

And many of Major General Zhang’s materials are ammunition, and these ammunition are all displayed now, telling some people clearly: come and grab it, as long as you dare to grab it, I will dare to blow it up, anyway, I can’t get you Don't even think about it.

This hob-like method of keeping money made Shangguan Ru and the others so angry that they wanted to vomit blood.

If there were no tanks, even if Major General Zhang used the same method, he would only be destroying this batch of supplies, but with tanks it would be different. They could not only destroy supplies, but also attack the base!

Are base walls well built?Are the people at the base willing to sacrifice?

Even if there are supernatural beings who can attack tanks, with the current level of supernatural beings, it is not easy to kill the manipulator hiding in the tank in one go.And as long as they act recklessly, I believe that the tanks aiming at the city wall will never hesitate.

In order to prevent the earth-type supernatural being from digging a pit from below and sinking the tank, Zhang Hua asked the soil-type supernatural being brought by Lei Bing to bury a batch of bombs under the supplies before leading people to do the task. If the tank fell, The tank soldiers inside will press the bomb's remote control button for the first time.

Zhang Hua completed all these actions in front of Shangguanru and others, and it was nearly twelve noon when they officially set off.

It is conceivable how depressed and irritable the Shangguanru and the trustworthy Brigadier General Lu Zhiguo felt when they saw all this, and the things that were so easy to grasp were suddenly reversed like this!

Lu Zhiguo was so angry that he made a phone call to the Zhongshan base, and complained to General Qiu: "I said, Mr. Qiu, what does Zhang Hua have to do with you? You want you to protect him like this? His father-in-law seems to have the same relationship with you." Isn't it very good, I heard that last time I asked you to trouble you about Commander Yang?"

Qiu Feng didn't know, so he laughed first, "So it's Xiao Lu, long time no see, how are you?"

Lu Zhiguo: ...Damn it, I'm seven or eight years younger than you. Calling you a vengeance is always giving you face. You really dare to call me Xiaolu.

However, one level of official rank crushes people, not to mention that Qiu Feng's level is two levels higher than him. With the overall structure of the country still in existence, he does not want to offend this powerful man with land, manpower, and arsenal. Will.

So Lu Zhiguo could only endure his anger and replied: "I am in good health, but not in a good mood."

"What's the matter? The young couple quarreled? Haha, Xiao Lu, I'm not talking about you. People say that military marriage is not easy. Many soldiers are not very good-tempered. When this couple gets along, they should pay attention to mutual tolerance..."

"Old Qiu!" Lu Zhiguo couldn't bear to interrupt Qiu Feng, and said quickly: "If you ask Lei Bing to help Zhang Hua, I won't say anything. After all, he was originally from this military region. Although I worked hard to build the base Well, I worked so hard to dig him out of the ground. He wanted to pick peaches as soon as he came. It’s not a fucking thing, but my lord doesn’t care about him in large numbers. But you put all the manpower and supplies for support, don’t you? A little out of place?"

Qiu Feng wondered what the hell you were, and dared to come and accuse me, "Oh, you mean that your base refused to help rescue the survivors in the underground until my people sent me a request for help. , I had to cross more than 500 kilometers, and I specially sent Lei Bing and others to rescue people, and in order to express my gratitude to the people who took care of me, Major General Zhang, did you give him some support?"

Lu Zhiguo thought to himself, you can just make up a reason, I don't believe that you can really send so many people to take such a big risk for a few subordinates!Unless your son is with Zhang Hua.

Thinking this way in his heart, of course he couldn't say that with his mouth, Lu Zhiguo said in an aggrieved tone: "I didn't say I wouldn't help save people, but our base was also under construction at the time, and there was a shortage of people, and the poisonous gas over City H hadn't dissipated yet. Don’t worry, I can’t ignore the lives of other soldiers and survivors just to save Zhang Hua, can I? When Lei Bing came to save people, didn’t our base help? Forget it, if you insist that I don’t have the heart to save people, I will There is no way to argue with you, as long as the survivors of the base know my heart for the people. Qiu Lao, I want to know now, do you have any extra tanks and chariots in your hands, and I don’t want to support them like you Zhang Hua’s products are all new products, as long as they are [-]% new, I will be satisfied.”

Qiu Feng: What about a tank?I asked Lei Bing to bring all kinds of technical soldiers in addition to supernatural fighters. Although there are all tank soldiers and flying soldiers, they are just training their soldiers according to Zhang Hua's requirements, and they will return in the future. When will they return? Have a vehicle?Still brand new?

"I don't know what you're talking about." Qiu Feng said very honestly.

But can Lu Zhiguo believe it?He also followed suit, "Since Mr. Qiu is unwilling to help in private, I can only make a formal report and apply to the higher authorities. Some bases can't have everything and have extras, while some bases can only pick up junk. , and use one less, and see that there will be problems in the base!"

Lu Zhiguo hung up the phone angrily. He didn't make this call because he really wanted to get anything, and he didn't expect anything. He just wanted to vent his anger.

As for worrying about tearing his face, will the other party play tricks on him in the future?Isn't this kind of thing obvious?Anyway, as long as there is a faction dispute, everyone will be torn into a sea of ​​​​blood and blood, but no matter how they stab each other behind their backs, they are still harmonious on the surface.

Don't you see that the Supreme Council often fights upside down?Throwing shoes, smashing water glasses and tearing hair are all common things.When there is a need, the enemy still sits down, shakes hands and continues to cooperate.These days, what counts is whether you have value, not grievances.

Lu Zhiguo hung up the phone, and General Qiu couldn't sit still, so he immediately called Lei Bing.

Let's talk about Lei Bing's side. After setting off, Lei Bing felt itchy. He knew that the chariots and tanks had nothing to do with him and the Zhongshan base, so where these vehicles came from became a mystery.

He just asked those little bastards under him, and those little bastards replied to him laughingly: "Captain, didn't you order it? Deputy Xue said that you know everything."

"Yeah, I'm still surprised that the big boss asked us to come here to train people. How can we train without a car? It turns out that you have already prepared it. They are all new cars, and they are comfortable to touch!"

Lei Bing: ...Actually, I really don't know anything!

Lei Bing couldn't bear it anymore, he found a reason to sit in the back compartment by himself, and quietly harassed Xiao Mo with the walkie-talkie.

"Thor called Scavengers No. 1, Boss Xiao, did you hear that?"

Xiao Mo, who was absorbing the recovery ability of the energy crystal in the base vehicle, opened his eyes, picked up the communicator on the table and opened it, "I heard. What's the matter?"

At this time, Xue Lihong was driving in front, and Cheng Zai sat in the passenger seat to learn about the communication system in the car.

Old Wu was resting in the back, and his wife took care of him.Lin Xiaofei took Wu Xiaoyuan to visit the entire vehicle.

Old Wu came up in a semi-conscious state, not knowing anything, but Yuan Yuan fainted after entering the base vehicle, and couldn't keep her mouth shut when she saw everything.

The little boy Wu Xiaoyuan has become a gourd, with a fierce light that does not belong to a child flashing in his eyes from time to time. If Lin Xiaofei hadn't been dragging him, he would have been sitting there without moving.

"Where did those cars come from? Please don't hide it." Lei Bing went straight to the point.

Xiao Mo paused slightly, "It's just the cars in the junkyard. I found a few to restore."

Lei Bing: "...Brother, please tell the truth! It's no problem to exchange materials. Have you found a hidden arsenal? Is there any goods in it? Please share!"

Xiao Mo wanted to answer that what he said was the truth, Xue Lihong, who was driving over there, had already intercepted the signal: "Just to share with you, do you have enough manpower to drive back?"

Lei Bing in the other car grabbed the walkie-talkie and took a closer look: Is it broken?It was actually inserted.

After re-tuning the channel, Lei Bing continued: "Boss Xiao, brother Xiao, let's continue what we just said. It's not good to steal state property. If you share half with me, I can pretend that I don't know."

Xue Lihong: "An angel was found looking for food one kilometer ahead, and the whole team is preparing to enter a state of silence."

Lei Bing knocked on the walkie-talkie in disbelief, "Damn, it's broken?" At the same time, he muttered: "You know there's an angel from such a distance? What kind of look is that!"

Xiao Mo, who heard all the conversations, silently grabbed an energy crystal and continued to absorb it.

At this time, General Qiu called.The communications soldier asked Lei Bing to answer the phone quickly.

Lei Bing had no choice but to serve his big boss, and at the same time tell the whole team about Xue Lihong's discovery.But there is no need for him to tell, Cheng Zai has already issued a reminder to the entire team.

The minions of angels and level [-] mutant rats are very powerful. Tanks can resist for a while with their bodies, but chariots and military trucks are different, and they can't last long.

The whole convoy stopped two kilometers away from the town of LX.

"I'm going to adopt a booby trap method. Divide into two teams, one team attracts angels and mutant rats, and kills them from a distance. The other team quietly enters the town to search for supplies. According to the agreement, whoever finds the supplies will belong to them." Zhang Hua's last sentence The words were mainly for Xiao Mo and the others' consideration. He and Lei Bing counted as one, no matter how much supplies the soldiers collected, Lei Bing only took [-]%.

Xiao Mo had no objection, and Xue Lihong had no objection either.Lei Bing expressed his support.

Seeing that everyone agreed, Zhang Hua continued, "Then let's allocate half of the staff..."

"There is no need to do this." Xiao Mo said, their team had already discussed in advance, "We will stay here to lure the enemy, and Major General Zhang and Captain Lei will enter the town to collect supplies."

Knowing that it is more dangerous to lure the enemy, Zhang Hua hurriedly said: "No, we should stay to lure the enemy. Once the cannon fires, all those angels will be attracted. It is too dangerous for you to stay."

After Lei Bing and Qiu Feng finished talking, they came over and interjected: "I will bring ordinary soldiers and Boss Xiao and the others in to carry things, and all the supernatural fighters will be left behind as mobile guard vehicles and to lure the enemy. Bombardment. You don’t need to fire cannons to attract the angels at the beginning, you can lure them one by one with speed abilities, and then use silent mortars to deal with them. When the kill is almost the same, then fire ordinary cannons to kill the rest elicit."

Zhang Hua is preparing to make a decision, and this arrangement is indeed the most appropriate. He suggested that half of the staff should be allocated to the family because he was afraid that everyone would have opinions.

"It's too troublesome." Xue Lihong's emotionless voice sounded, "How long will you kill a little bit? Are you planning to spend a few days here? You have that spare time, we don't. And even if all the angels are killed, There are also groups of mutant rats."

Xiao Mo was afraid that Xue Lihong's blunt remarks would offend people, so he quickly took over the conversation: "Don't worry about us, since we dared to lure out the angels and mutant rats, we naturally have a way to protect ourselves. And if you delay here for too long, sorry The camp is not good either, and Major General Zhang can make everyone feel at ease when he returns earlier."

Zhang Hua wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Lei Bing, "Since Boss Xiao said so, they must be sure, Major General Zhang, let's not refuse their kindness. Besides, we have other tasks, and we really can't do it here." Delayed for several days."

Major General Zhang thought about it, so he had to admit his feelings again, "Okay, I will take advantage of this shamelessly. Xiao Xiao is responsible for luring the enemy, and Captain Lei and I will lead people in to collect supplies. According to the information provided by Shangguanru, If they didn't give false information, the townspeople of this town left relatively hastily, and no one entered the town later, and the supplies are relatively rich. We can go to the largest supermarket in the town first, and then go to their wholesale grain and oil Center. All the materials obtained will be shared equally.”

"Finally, I wish the comrades safety and success, and everyone will come out safely. Life-saving comes first!"

"Safety first!" Slogans sounded in the convoy at the same time.

Xiao Mole couldn't help reminding everyone: "If anyone is injured, remember to bring them back even if they still have a breath."

"Oh! Thank you, Boss Xiao!" There were voices of thanks and teasing in the audio.

Everyone's mood is nervous with optimism, whether it's a baby daddy or a super daddy who comes out to do tasks, the mood is different.

in the base vehicle.

Cheng Zai was still a little worried, "We are responsible for luring the enemy, what will happen when the angels swarm up? Can our cars resist?"

Xue Lihong pressed a few buttons, "You can become invisible."

Cheng Zai opened his mouth wide, it turned out that he still has this trick, no wonder!

Xue Lihong didn't look sideways, "This car has many functions, and you have to learn some of them. Today, you should figure out the communication system and weapon system first, and I will give you two days for the rest."

Cheng Zaidihan, the system of this car is completely different from the ones he has been in contact with. The difficulty is only higher than that of a fighter plane, not lower than it. He even suspects that the satellite operating system is not as good as this base car. Think about it. How long does it take astronauts to learn to actually operate the machine?And he only has three days!

Xiao Mo is no less stressed than Cheng Zai, Cheng Zai only needs to know how to use it, and he has to memorize the structure of the whole car, and Xiao Hong inhumanely asked him to operate all the functions of the base car proficiently within a week.If he hadn't restored the car himself, he really couldn't have done it!

Xue Lihong asked Cheng Zai to use satellites to call up a detailed map of the town.

Cheng Zai operated in a hurry for a long time, and finally called it out.

Xue Lihong calmly ordered: "Turn on the GPS, the satellite will help you navigate."

Cheng Zai wiped his sweat and quickly recalled the operation interface: "Yes."

Xue Lihong: "Boss, reload!"

Xiao Mo: "It's already filled out."

Xue Lihong: "No, you didn't fill in the automatic machine gun."

Xiao Mo was dizzy, "I don't know that."

Xue Lihong clicked her tongue softly, "You drive the car, I'll take care of it."

Xiao Mo hurried over to exchange with him.

Before driving, Major General Zhang distributed a batch of ammunition, food and other materials to them according to the agreement.Xue Lihong didn't kill him hard. Although he asked for one-third of the ammunition, one-third of the food and one-third of other supplies, he agreed to Major General Zhang to pay in installments. If the supplies were not enough, he could use alloy particles or monster corpses. Instead, the interest rate is not high, only 1% per annum.

At that time, Major General Zhang thought that he had mistakenly heard the monthly interest rate as the annual interest rate, and after repeated confirmation, he regarded Xue Lihong as a good person.

Xue Lihong: If it wasn't for my boss being too verbose...

When the adults were busy, Lin Xiaofei opened a display screen in the living room and pointed to show it to Wu Xiaoyuan.

"Look, this is our base car. What we see now is the model display of the surveillance video. Do you know what a model display is? It is all expressed in data, without a factual image. For example, if you look at these green dots in the car, These are us. If it is an enemy, it will be displayed in red. Those who enter the vehicle without permission are red dots, and they will be caught by the captain. So you don’t have to worry about monsters coming to take you away. We are in the car It's safe."

"Can you kill the red dot?" Wu Xiaoyuan asked suddenly.

"Ah? It should be... okay, wait a minute, let me ask the team... the deputy team! If there are monsters sneaking in, can we kill them?" Lin Xiaofei asked loudly when he saw Xue Lihong passing by.

Xue Lihong didn't turn her head back: "Yes, not only monsters, as long as they are red spots, they can be killed."

Xiao Mo heard earlier: Hey, you can't teach children like this.

Lin Xiaofei heard it, and said to Wu Xiaoyuan very seriously: "The deputy team said, kill the red dots at will."

Wu Xiaoyuan nodded heavily.

Xiao Mo: "..."

Classmate Lin Xiaofei taught Wu Xiaoyuan again: "If you want to see who these green and red dots are and what they look like, you can click on them, and the real appearance will appear next to them, so you don't have to worry about making mistakes. I will tell you below. How do you kill the red dot? You see, these display screens are actually operation panels, which are found in various places in the car, and they are marked with the ∞ symbol. You click on this symbol, and the operation panel will pop up.”

Lin Xiaofei retracted the screen and asked Wu Xiaoyuan to try it.

Wu Xiaoyuan stretched out his little finger and poked on the infinity symbol.

The screen pops up.The kid's eyes lit up.

Lin Xiaofei continued the class: "Then look at the operation panel, does this look like a game interface? Oh, you haven't played online games yet, right? It's very simple, for example, you want to kill this red dot... Pretend that I am the red dot, you finger Click me, and then click the attack button below. There are various forms of attack. This row is full of electric current, ranging from [-] volts to [-] volts. The first button in the lower row is a prison, and the second is a gun. , you can tell by the pattern on the button, this is poisonous gas that makes people stunned, this is pepper water, and lime..."

Xiao Mo was dripping sweat in front: What did Xue Lihong teach the children when she looked at them in the morning?

And those attack methods, why didn't he know?When was it installed?

Lin Xiaofei became more and more excited as he spoke, "There are also group attack methods. For example, if the car is surrounded by monsters, we can do this first and then do that..."

The two children were studying how to kill people... no, killing monsters, and they were very happy to study.

Xue Lihong bounced back, patted the heads of the two children, and said, "Everyone's safety depends on you."

"Yes!" Lin Xiaofei stood up straight and replied loudly.

Wu Xiaoyuan was a step slower, but he imitated Lin Xiaofei and straightened his chest.The child's eyes sparkled, and he couldn't wait for the monster to appear, so that he could play all the attack methods on the operation panel.

The convoy set off again and approached to the outskirts of the town.

"Get ready for the team!" Major General Zhang's voice sounded from the audio in the car, "Waiting for instructions."

Because the angels have the characteristic of gathering when they hear the sound, this time Major General Zhang mainly carried silent mortars.This shell is silent, lightless and smokeless, and is the most suitable weapon for attacking angels.

Major General Zhang was also cruel this time, and Tete brought out a batch of white phosphorus bombs.

If this kind of ammunition is used in war, it will be scolded to death by public opinion.Without him, people who are stained with white phosphorous will be very miserable. This thing is very difficult to put out, and the only way to get stained is to dig the flesh, and it may not be too late.

However, white phosphorous bombs combined with silent shell technology are extremely effective against angels and mutated rats.

However, because angels and mutant rats will run around after being hit by white phosphorous bombs, they will injure themselves [-] times if they are not careful, and it is easy to cause urban fires. Generally, it is not a last resort or in very open areas, and the military dare not use them at will.

So the white phosphorus bomb will not be used from the beginning, this thing will only be used when breaking away and wanting to die together.

After entering the town, they will only use ordinary silent grenades for the time being, as long as the aim is good enough, it is enough to cause great damage to the angel.

But now it depends on how the scavenger team lures the enemy.

Xiao Mo's voice came: "Squad! You go from the left. After 5 minutes, most of the angels and mutant mice will be lured from our side. Good luck to everyone!"

Zhang Hua still couldn't figure out how Xiao Mo and the others could escape from the siege of the angels and destroy them.However, he didn't ask for details, Xiao Mo and Xue Lihong had too many secrets, and he could protect them better if he knew less.

Since Lei Bing talked with Qiu Feng, he has strengthened his belief: even if he dies, he must send Xiao Mo and Xue Lihong back to Zhongshan base intact!

Five minutes later, the convoy of soldiers had just approached the town, and the angels who came out to look for food seemed to have spotted them.

"Prepare to bomb silently!" Lei Bing shouted softly.

At the same time as Lei Bing's voice fell, "Boom!" A huge explosion sounded, and the angel flying towards their convoy turned into a ball of sparks in the sky—Xiao Mo and the others made a move!

The quiet town is like cold water being poured into hot oil, and a large number of angels fly out of the town with wings flapping.

Just as the angels were looking for the direction of the sound, another violent explosion sounded.

An angel screamed and fell from the sky.

alright!The angels found their target, and all rushed out of the town in a rage.

There are also some angels with higher IQs who have called out a large number of mutant mice first.

These mutated rats were ordered, and even if they passed by the convoy, none of the rats stopped.

Zhang Hua, Lei Bing and other soldiers just sat in the car, watching a large number of mutated rats rush past the body and bottom of the car like black waves.

Zhang Hua wanted to speak, but held back.

The young soldiers covered their mouths because they were afraid that they would not be calm enough.

The angels found the murderer of their compatriots, and flew over the base vehicle that fired the shells one after another, just as they were about to pounce on the roof of the vehicle with their sharp claws and grab the food inside.

That not-so-small car actually disappeared!

The angels are confused: where is the car?What about food?

An angel lowered the altitude and flew to where the base vehicle should be.

"Sting—!" Ten thousand volts of current passed through.

The angels didn't even utter a scream, and all fell down covered in black smoke.But in this way, they are still not completely dead, and some of them are still twitching.

"Wow!" All the angels who did not fall screamed angrily.

More groups of mutant rats rushed out of the town.
