Chapter 364 [Self-Inflicted]

When he was back on the road, Chen Xiaolian's boat was still unhurriedly mixed in the middle of the fleet. That is, it will not be too far forward, nor will it be behind. It's just that the other ships around him, as if consciously or unconsciously, kept some distance from him.

At noon. The flotilla stopped to rest, this time on a wide river beach.

But Hans ordered everyone not to get off the ship, and to rest on the ship.

Soon, Hans sent Weinstein to call Chen Xiaolian over to discuss the matter.

"We were a lot slower than expected. ”

On Hans's ship, the German man looked a little worried.

Chen Xiaolian shrugged his shoulders, this is simply too normal.

A group of refugees fled, and most of the distance had to rely on physical paddling, so the speed was naturally not fast.

In fact, according to Hans's calculations, there are two dilemmas now: the first is that the team is moving at a slower pace. The second is that the consumption of diesel fuel is higher than expected.

"According to our calculations, at most tonight, we will run out of diesel. But there is still a third of the way to go. Hans frowned: "But this third of the way, the situation of the waterway is a little more complicated. Even...... It may be tougher than the previous section. ”

Chen Xiaolian expressed understanding.

Walking on the waterway is not the same as walking on land.

On the map, the distance to the Congolese border is only one-third of the distance. But the waterway is not a straight line, but a zigzag, and even if you calculate carefully, the remaining one-third of the distance, I am afraid that the length of the waterway is much longer!

"Maybe there's a way. Hans glanced at Chen Xiaolian: "Let's discuss a proposal." ”

Chen Xiaolian looked at the German calmly.

"We detachment, concentrating a part of the diesel fuel, to a boat. Send someone on this boat, go full speed, reach the Congolese border as fast as possible, and then contact the person who responds...... Came back with diesel to pick us up. ”

Chen Xiaolian didn't speak, just turned his head to look at the other people on the boat.

On this boat, Hans and other volunteers looked at them with expectant eyes.

Furthermore. Randall and two mercenaries were also on board, and the guy's eyes were gloomy.

Chen Xiaolian sighed: "Who are you going to let serve as this advance team?"

Hans looked at Chen Xiaolian: "I want to ...... Please help. ”

Chen Xiaolian smiled.

He looked at Hans, "You trust me so much?"

Randall said coldly on the side, "Hans, your trust in an outsider has exceeded the boundary. I'm not going to put my life and death on a strange boy. ”

"The advance team consisted of five people. Hans said coldly: "Randall, you can send two people, and I'll send two." So, who I choose, it doesn't matter to you. ”

Chen Xiaolian suddenly interjected: "Five people, two mercenaries, plus two you assigned." So who's the fifth person?"

"It's Schneider. Weinstein snorted as he hung his arms from the side.

Chen Xiaolian nodded.

It seemed that the UN official was still more afraid of death than he imagined, and when he heard that there was a chance to leave first, he had to let him go first.

"I'm not interested. Chen Xiaolian shook his head.

Hans's face was a little ugly, and he glanced at Chen Xiaolian deeply.

Suddenly, the German man took a deep breath: "I need to talk to him alone." ”

Weinstein and the others walked away with great interest, while Randall looked at Hans coldly, until Hans's face was not good, and Randall deliberately smiled: "Hurry up and decide! I'm waiting to get on the road!"

The leader of the mercenaries left with his own men.

Chen Xiaolian was pulled to the side of the boat by Hans. The German looked into Chen Xiaolian's eyes: "I need your help." ”

"Why me?" said Chen Xiaolian with a playful smile.

"Because I don't dare trust Randall. Hans sighed: "Schneider wants to leave with the advance team, and I have to agree." Randall, this guy...... Also go. So...... I'm worried that once these guys get to the Congo, they'll run away on their own, and they won't even come back to save us.

We have deeply offended them, and the slightest deliberate delay would be a great danger to us! I dare not take that risk.

I can only find the one with the most ability. And people I can trust to go. ”

Hans looked at Chen Xiaolian: "I think you are the most suitable." If they're, maybe ...... There are a few things you can help with. ”

Chen Xiaolian thought for a while: "I think your idea is terrible. ”

"What?"

Chen Xiaolian turned his head, pointed to the fleet behind him, and sneered: "These people are becoming more and more desperate and anxious in their hearts! Now they suddenly ask everyone to concentrate the diesel fuel. There is a boat that can leave here first and quickly escape to the Congo......

Hans, guess what the people in the team will think when they hear the news?

They don't understand that this is an advance team, a small detachment calling for help. They don't understand it that way! They just think that whoever gets on the boat first and leaves will be safe immediately! And those who stay will ......

Do you understand? They will only take the place on the ship of the advance team as a hope for life!

This team is already scattered, and the morale of the team is low!

I bet that as soon as you announce this decision, the team will collapse instantly!

Hans, you yourself know very well how selfish these guys are. ”

Hans's face turned pale.

"If someone makes a fuss, or is unwilling to hand over the diesel, Hans, can you be ruthless and use strong means?" Chen Xiaolian sneered and looked at the Germans.

Hans took a deep breath: "No way...... I had to be ruthless. What if I could? Would you grant me this request?"

"It's not enough. Chen Xiaolian shook his head: "Even if you can ruthlessly suppress the disobedient people in the team, but...... The ranks have dispersed. With the selfishness of the human heart, I am afraid that some people will not appreciate your kindness in bringing them out of Kabuka at all, but will hate you for making them hand over diesel fuel to the advance team.

Trust me, everything I've seen along the way has left me with no expectations for these guys.

The team that remains is equal to ...... You have a group of refugees who hate you with you.

I will go to the advance team, but what will happen to the people who will stay? What will Lin Leyan do? I will not rest assured that she will be left in such a team. ”

Chen Xiaolian said. looked at Hans and said lightly: "Hans, you understand very well that if it weren't for Lin Leyan, I would have left your team." I went to the advance team and left Lin Leyan behind. I'm sorry, I won't accept that. Unless you can agree, I'll leave first with Lin Leyan. ”

Hans shook his head: "No, I will send another person in charge to contact the Congolese authorities for help." Lin Leyan went to no avail. ”

"But what about those mercenaries?" Chen Xiaolian frowned: "Why did Randall send someone to occupy two places?"

"I chose the smallest boat, which was the most fuel-efficient, and could only seat five people on board. Hans shook his head: "Randall must send someone to join, he has a reason I can't refute." He could send someone to contact their mercenary organization's colleagues in Congo and call for help. In case there is any delay from the Congolese authorities, we can still count on mercenaries to come to the rescue. ”

Chen Xiaolian nodded: "Then I'm sorry, I can't go." I want to stay here with Lin Leyan, I am with this team, and my greatest interest is to protect her, outside for the first time,...... Hans, in this team. I don't care about the lives of those refugees. ”

Hans: "I beg you to ......"

Chen Xiaolian shook his head: "I'm sorry." It's useless to plead, Hans, remember, from the time we know that you owe it to me, and I saved you. Helped you. You can't keep you in debt to me, can you? I don't expect you to pay anything back, but if you ask me to do anything, I have the right to refuse. ”

After speaking, Chen Xiaolian stopped talking to Hans and went back to his ship directly.

He was a little disappointed with Hans.

In Chen Xiaolian's opinion. Over the past two days, he has become more and more disgusted with some of the refugees in this team!

In his opinion, Hans's approach, to take these guys out of Kabka City, was enough.

Enough has been done!

But when you get out of Kabuka City, you have to continue to flee with these people all the way, which is simply asking for your own hardship.

A group of selfish guys, running away with such people, and thinking of themselves as gods, worry about how to protect everyone......

Chen Xiaolian didn't have the interest to do such a noble thing anyway.

Chen Xiaolian returned to his boat, and he did not tell Lin Leyan about Hans's request.

However, after resting for a few minutes, Chen Xiaolian suddenly heard several boats in front of him gathered together, and then, some of the boats made a noise of noise!

As if there was a quarrel.

Chen Xiaolian sneered.

Standing on the side of the boat, he could hear several refugees roaring angrily with the volunteers on a boat not far away.

Presumably, the content of the roar is that the refugees refuse to hand over the diesel fuel on their boats.

Some refugees even attacked the volunteers, saying, "They just want to steal our diesel fuel and escape on their own!"

Chen Xiaolian didn't get involved in these things, he just sneered and listened quietly to those quarrels.

In the midst of the chaos, suddenly there was the sound of gunfire.

Hans finally made a decisive decision.

He stepped forward and fired a warning shot, forcing back the refugees who were clamoring to besiege them.

The gunfire frightened some people away, but Chen Xiaolian noticed that many of these refugees really showed hatred and resentment in their eyes when they stared at Hans and other volunteers.

Hans fired a crackdown, and then sent people to collect diesel fuel boat by boat, and finally gathered enough weight for the advance team.

The team was surprisingly quiet, deadly silent.

Chen Xiaolian looked at this group of refugees and always felt that they were staring into the eyes of the volunteers, just like ......

Wolves.

Chen Xiaolian sighed.

People, indeed, are selfish.

Ascend Mien, fight Mi Qiu.

Hum!
