Doomsday rat

Chapter 688

"I just threw one in there without saying a word, it's so fucking scary! They all have automatic rifles, which look more powerful than Union soldiers, and the magazines are so long!" It was another coachman who answered. The expressive ability is relatively strong, in addition to verbal description, there are gestures and expressions.

"Old uncle, old uncle... where is old uncle?" Brother Gang understood, but he didn't have any ideas in his mind. He turned to look for the old man, but he called twice and saw no one.

"Brother Gang, the old man went there..." A driver pointed in the direction of the reeds, and there was a little light flickering inside.

"Uncle, it's..." Brother Gang also took out the flashlight from his arms and walked towards the reeds, before he ran into the old man.

"Well, it looks like... the third child, have you seen the grenade clearly?" The old man's expression was serious, he waved his hand at Brother Gang, and walked slowly to the four drivers blocking the way and asked in a low voice.

"What about the gun?"

"Okay, put the wheels on. Don't make any publicity about what happened today, just keep your mouth shut!" After listening to the descriptions of the coachmen, the old man waved his hands and walked towards the convoy behind with his hands behind his back.

"Oh yes, old man, they also said to let the head of the family go and talk about it. What is the albatross transport team called in the three-story building opposite the Xiushan apartment in the fifth district of the south of the city!" Words are not brought.

"Uncle, what do you think?" The old man didn't turn his head, and Brother Gang followed behind without saying anything, and only asked in a low voice when he got on the shaft.

"We kicked on the iron plate...Maybe there will be big trouble!" The old man took out the copper pipe pot again.

"What do you mean?" Brother Gang was a little surprised. Since the establishment of the Limin Transport Team, there have been many bumps and bumps. No matter how difficult it is, the old man has never shown weakness like this.

"The thing that the third child is talking about is not a grenade, it should be a grenade. Green, oval, with a silver cylinder at the top, and there are seams in the middle of the smooth surface. It is very similar to the grenade of the former Soviet Union. I forgot the specific model, but there is no such thing in China."

"I don't have any impression of those rifles. They don't look like domestic ones, and they don't look like American equipment, but they must be standard weapons. Maybe they came from the north. You said we offended the people with standard weapons, trouble Isn't it too big?"

The old man seems to have a lot of research on military equipment. Although he can't tell the model, he can rely on other people's descriptions to tell the general origin, and then related to his age, he may not have a military background before.

"Damn it, we have more people and more guns, how about fighting one?" Brother Gang was a little panicked, but his choice was extreme, and he wanted to rely on the number of people to make up for the gap in equipment.

"... Gangzi, do you know what we are in the eyes of the army? It doesn't take much, three people can kill us all! These people are likely to have served as soldiers, and it is not brave to choose to fight recklessly before finding out the details. Call it a tiger!" The old man shook his head, a hint of disappointment flashed in his eyes.

This nephew, who has no blood relationship, is his promising successor. He thought that he would be considered a good young man with brains, courage and courage among the refugees, but he was almost meaningless when it came to the critical moment.

"Then, what should we do then? The grudge is settled. We have many people this time. If we meet on the road in the future, maybe they should attack first. We can't just sit back and wait for losses!" Brother Gang thought for a while, I still feel that being beaten passively is worse than taking the initiative.

"Didn't the third brother say that, they want to talk. Judging from today's performance, they don't intend to make a vengeance. They are just bluffing and scaring us so that we can retreat. I will go for a walk after I go back and see what they say!"

"I can't let you go, I'll shrink back! If you want to go together, you can't believe you can eat me!" This made Brother Gang blush a little, and he had to hold on even if he felt a little guilty.

"Uncle, why don't I ride a horse and take a small path to go back and ask my acquaintances in the south of the city safety zone, and find out the details of this group of people?" But the past is too passive with such a black eye, what do you say when you meet?
"Hehe, Gangzi, you've made progress! Go ahead, let the fifth child walk with you, and be careful on the road." The old man smiled, and this sentence made him feel the most reliable all night.People gradually mature through one thing, as long as they make progress, there is still hope.

Unlike the albatross convoy, there are two horses in this convoy that don't pull the cart, and have been tied behind the cart for a walk.They are not workhorses ready to be replaced, but mounts dedicated to delivering messages.

Using radio communication... It has been more than ten years since the outbreak of the zombie disease. The survivor forces of all parties have been trying to restore the level of technological production in the old world, but the effect is not ideal. Many things are still unavailable, such as batteries and All kinds of electronic products, including radio communication equipment.

It's not that radio communication equipment can't be used anymore, but it needs to have relatively high maintenance and repair capabilities, and it can no longer be used just like the old world, and the cost is much higher.

Most of the small transportation teams formed by refugees do not have this ability, nor can they afford to maintain such expensive equipment. Short-distance communication may be solved by low-power walkie-talkies sold in the market. Long-distance communication can only be done by horses. It is achieved by running on four legs.

To put it less positively, if batteries cannot be mass-produced in a few years, even the East Asian Union will lose the ability to use many portable devices and can only use lead-acid batteries instead.

At that time, it will be the same as before liberation. Everywhere you go, you will carry a radio on your back, and you will have to bring heavy lead-acid batteries or hand-cranked or foot-operated generators.In terms of means of communication, most people have to go back to the first half of the nineteenth century. They send telegrams and write letters when they are in a hurry, and rely on a small number of train lines and horse-drawn carriages to deliver.

Brother Gang and Lao Wu ran away on two horses, but Hong Tao really didn't notice it at all.This is also a matter of experience. In the future, if you run a few more times and get to know more coachmen, you don’t need to experience it yourself. You will know that there are still many small roads to go back to the capital, but vehicles cannot pass, and riding and walking are no problem at all.

In fact, even if they were aware of it, they didn’t have the time to take care of it. An hour later, when the convoy arrived at the entrance of the West Outer Ring Expressway, it was stopped by the sudden increase of checkpoints.All the guards were Union soldiers, and there was an armored vehicle with a machine gun.The muzzle of the black hole pointed at the middle of the road, as if reminding some people that they had better be safe.

"Sir, we're not going into the city, we're just passing by..."

Faced with such a big battle, Hong Tao still handed over the cigarettes with a smile on his face. Whether he smokes or not is someone else's business.Even if my heart skips a beat, there are still automatic rifles and grenades hidden in the hidden groove under the car deck!
"Are these things going to take you on the road in the middle of the night?" The soldiers who came for the inspection had the rank of sergeant. goods, and raised a very reasonable question.

"Hey, if there is a place to live, who would like to run this broken road at night. This is not an urgent job sent by the company. Dozens of cars came at once, and the hotel was full. Sleeping outside in this weather is too painful , I thought I might as well go back sooner. Look behind, not only us, but also those who can't find a place to live!"

Don't be afraid of doubts, Hong Tao is best at turning doubts into reasonable ones.At this time, the convoy that is always hanging 1 km away is the best proof. In the dark night, the red lanterns on each car are very eye-catching and imposing. From a distance, it seems that dozens of cars are moving slowly. .

The sergeant carefully looked in the direction of Hong Tao's finger and believed it.Still did not let go immediately, but walked towards the armored vehicle, as if to ask the companions inside to ask their superiors for instructions by radio.

"...Little brother, what's the matter? We were fine when we came here!" Taking advantage of this opportunity, Hong Tao tried his best to send a warm spring breeze to the soldiers beside him.

"There was a murder case in the industrial zone. It was a major case. I heard that many people died." The private soldier was relatively young, and felt that he was facing a transport team from Caofeidian, which had nothing to do with the case in the Jinmen Industrial Zone, so he relaxed. alert.

"Ah! We were fine when we came here. When did this happen?" Hong Tao's face immediately showed great surprise and confusion.

"It seems like it was noon yesterday. We received an order to close the road in the afternoon..." The little private shrank his neck, and he didn't know the details.
