Section 73 Retreat
It's like this accident just now. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 Info Although it was only a trivial overturn, it dragged down the whole team.
It would have been nice to have another situation, but now they are refugees, and they are the ones who have withdrawn from the defeat. In other words, for each additional delay, the likelihood of being attacked by the enemy increases by one point. Who knows when the enemy will catch up?
Even a fool can see that this kind of army, which has only been trained for one day and is of ultra-low quality, carries so many burdens, and is attacked on a plain where there is no danger to defend, it is impossible to win at all. On the contrary, if you leave behind these burdensome old and weak women and children, the speed will be more than one or two points faster. Life is more important than official positions - not to mention this kind of garbage army, this "captain" has very limited gold content.
Lu Wu now knew that the temporarily formed army had a great possibility of being disbanded after the war, and it was the kind of dissolution from top to bottom. In other words, the "former" captain could command a thousand or so men before, but maybe in the blink of an eye he would become a squad leader or something, and it was not impossible to even become an ordinary soldier.
The Supreme Commander himself has taken the lead, so what else is there to say? All this happened as a matter of course. Although there was no attack along the way, in just a few days, the entire escort force had completely collapsed and the establishment no longer existed. Of the 1,000 theoretically people, there are now only 60 or 70 people headed by Lu Wu - because among the rest of the people, Lu Wu has the highest official rank - sixty or seventy people. The reason why they did not run was not because they were PLA fighters surnamed Lei, but because their own families, parents, brothers, relatives and friends, were in this fleeing team. They are "child soldiers", and they can't leave their family and friends to run if they want to.
Lu Wu now knew that the old and weak women and children here were mainly from a few remote towns on the border, and they had withdrawn before they were attacked. On the other hand, young men (i.e., those who had been forcibly conscripted) came from all over the world, and were basically surrounded and captured by the enemy. Let's not talk about whether the old and weak women and children themselves can escape from the encirclement and attack, even if they escape, surviving in the wild is not as easy as imagined. Without carrying enough equipment and lacking expertise, small human groups are not very capable of surviving in the wild. Not to mention the treacherous terrain or wild beasts, in fact, even a single rain can make people sick and eventually die. Young adults who are not physically strong simply can't persevere all the way.
Although these young adults have a temporary shelter because they are cared for by these people, it is not enough for them to choose to fight for them. In fact, it's pretty good that there haven't been any looting or such vicious cases. Lu Wu felt that this was mainly due to the fact that there was no gold and silver to loot at all. The world's currency (called Belica) has been digitized, and when refugees escape, they carry with them all kinds of machinery necessary for life and production. Although these things have a lot of significance, they are now a burden to the standard and not worth plundering.
"Captain!" a young man in a military uniform hurried over. Although Lu Wu is not very old, he can't stand this guy being younger. According to the standards of the earth, this guy is probably only a high school or junior high school student, but in this world, in the current situation, they are already qualified to wear military uniforms and go to war. In front of him, even Lu Wu can pretend to be a "senior".
"How's the back?" Lu Wu asked.
"There was a minor accident, a child got lost and someone was being sent to look for it. The young man reported.
The entire army is no longer organized, so what squads, squadrons, brigades, and so on before is meaningless. In short, there are now dozens of people left in military uniforms, led by Lu Wu. They are not so much an army with the responsibility of protecting refugees as they are part of it.
Unconsciously, Lu Wu found that his small group of people had taken on the task of helping the entire team solve the trouble. Vehicle damage, injuries to people, and so on. Over the past few days, there have been thousands of small troubles, such as a lost child. And every trouble means a drag on the speed of the whole team.
However, this is also the only thing Lu Wu can do now. It has to be said that without them, the entire refugee contingent would have been even slower.
"Use the loudspeaker, call the whole team, look for the child. Lu Wu sighed. The original plan was that they should have arrived at their destination ten days before, but it turned out that the people who had made the plan certainly did not know how slow a group of refugees with large quantities of goods could be. Now Lu Wu has only walked three-quarters of the way.
In particular, as the Supreme Commander took the lead in the flight, they had completely lost contact with the other forces. In other words, Lu Wu now has no idea what happened behind the scenes, nor does he know what the situation is at the destination. All he could do was move forward with the troops.
Before it got dark, they finally found the lost child. But when he was camping, Lu Wu was depressed and found that the distance ahead today was actually only a handful, far lower than the predetermined plan. Fortunately, it is a plain, so you can camp on the spot, and there is no need to set up a camp or anything, otherwise, if you add the time to set up the camp and clean up the camp, it is estimated that you will not be able to walk much in a day.
When it gets dark, the whole grassland is lit up. To say that the technological level of this world is indeed higher than that of the earth, at least it can ensure the light source problem of such a large number of people. With the light, the beast did not dare to approach. Otherwise, I'm afraid that just dealing with beasts is not a problem that dozens of people like Lu Wu can solve.
As for the enemy or something, Lu Wu didn't even think about it. If any enemy really attacks, they have no chance of winning, and they can only resign themselves to their fate.
Of course, for Lu Wuren, the situation is not so bad. Because if nothing else, at least one good thing is that his badge has been restored very well. According to the masters, if something unexpected happens, it can be used right now. Of course, it's best to wait for it to be fully charged and completely regenerate itself. Because the "excess" uses its power to cause irreparable damage to it. This time coming from the earth to Vage itself was an injury to it, but fortunately the damage was not great.
When it got dark, Lu Wu was lying in his tent. If there's one good thing about the refugee workforce as a whole, it's that there is no need to worry about food and water. Their food (i.e., the ones that Lu Wu ate before) still has very, very much room for improvement in terms of taste, but at least in other aspects it has reached a very good height. Just a small amount is enough for a person for a day.
Lu Wu lay in the tent, using his own officer user terminal. It's a small machine made with the technology of this world, close in size to a learning machine on Earth (hard to carry around, but at least fit in a backpack). At this time, the privilege of the officer, in fact, Lu Wu originally did not have this thing, but the captain who became a deserter threw it away as a burden, and then fell into Lu Wu's hands.
This stuff is a real burden for the captain. Its main function is to communicate and store data - naturally, in this age of war, the former is close to none. Because in war, jamming the enemy's communications is an indispensable action in itself (and has been since time immemorial). In the era of cold weapons, intercepting enemy scouts and messengers was an important job, and in the high-tech era it became electronic jamming). That is, the most basic functions of this thing are wasted, no wonder it is abandoned.
But for Lu Wu, the situation is different, because there are a lot of books hidden in this terminal. All kinds of books that are common in this world.
If there's one way to integrate into a strange world as quickly as possible, it's reading. I think that when Amber came to Earth, after initially mastering the language of the Earth, she also tried her best to find books to read and surf the Internet. Through this method, she added enough common sense in a very short period of time.
Now Lu Wu is the same. To say that he is indeed not a genius like Amber, but he is a most diligent student.
"It turns out that this world is so vast......" Lu Wu looked at the map information provided by the terminal and sighed softly.
"That's right, according to the standards of the earth, the area of the Banshee's Gate alone is 600 million square kilometers, which is even more than the area of the earth. The master replied. "And the Banshee's Gate is just one of the most remote and inconspicuous areas in this world. In the same level, there are more than 200,000. ”
Lu Wu still thought it was incredible. The world is so vast that it is impossible to exaggerate even the "astronomical figures". There are eight billion people on the planet, and the world ...... 10,000 times more than the earth is still a small amount. However, at least Lu Wu understood why even if there was a disaster such as the collapse of time and space, the human race in this world was still in full swing. And the people on the earth faced the threat of a nuclear winter, and they simply died down and did not dare to make a big move. This is not to say that the lower limit of human discipline in this world is lower, or that there is more of a destructive element in nature, but simply because for such a vast world, this "small-scale" disintegration of time and space is indeed too insignificant at the moment.
This little trouble will not stop anything compared to the established hatred between the two sides.
Lu Wu turned off the geography book—which was supposed to be a popular science book aimed at elementary school readers—and replaced it with another book. A book about the internal material management of the army, marching, reconnaissance and a few other details. Lu Wu believed that there were similar books on the earth, but he had not had the opportunity to contact such books in the past, and there was no need.
Speaking of which, the technological level of the two worlds can barely be regarded as a level, so there are always many similarities in human warfare. At least, the basic principles and methods of war are always the same. Both worlds are human, and humans, as we all know, have just climbed down from a tree and already know how to fight.
"Today we are a third slower than scheduled," Lu Wu opened the map of the Banshee's Gate (this thing is in the terminal) and said to the master.
"But it's five percent faster than yesterday. Not to mention that we crossed a river today, which took a lot of time. The master replied.
