Chapter 322: Farewell to the Old and Welcome to the New (Medium)
Arriving at a safe house on the outskirts of Ryazan, the four Anna sisters were found locked in a small room, but there was no sign of Lyudmina and the agents protecting them. Chu Tianjiang was secretly surprised, and Nichole and the others immediately understood, immediately put down their backpacks, and went outside to search for others.
"Clara, you and Andre stay outside." Chu Tianjiang gave Andre another look.
Andre nodded, indicating that he understood what Chu Tianjiang meant, that is, to protect Clara, not to let Clara enter the house, and not to let her go somewhere else.
Twisting the door lock, Chu Tianjiang entered the room, and then closed the door.
"Who?" Anna stood up, a small fruit knife in both hands, looking very panicked, her three younger sisters huddled in the corner.
"Anna, it's me."
"Joseph, yes...... Is that you? ”
"Yes, it's me."
There were no electric lights or candles in the room, and it looked more like a prison cell.
"Joseph......" Anna threw away the fruit knife, her body went limp, and she fell.
Chu Tianjiang's eyes were quick, and he stepped forward with an arrow and hugged Anna. She was cold, pale, and her pulse and heartbeat were weak. Chu Tianjiang dared to hesitate, immediately pinched Anna's acupoint, and then wrapped Anna with an energy body to gradually warm up.
At this point, Nichole rushed back, but did not enter the room.
"Husband, there is no one nearby, Lyudmina has not been found, and no one else has been found."
"Zhilu Dao, you accompany Clara outside, and let Andre and them go to the perimeter to guard." Chu Tianjiang also answered Nicol through consciousness.
"Anna, are they all right?"
"It's okay, it's all alive. When Rachel and the others returned, she asked them to stand guard nearby. ”
After ending the consciousness exchange, Chu Tianjiang walked to the corner with Anna in his arms, and found that Ajelina, Diana, and Vera had very low body temperatures and weak snorting. Chu Tianjiang didn't think much about it, and immediately unfolded his energy body, wrapped the other three sisters as well, and let their questions return to normal first.
Luckily, the light in the room was dim.
After a while, Anna woke up.
"Joseph, really...... Is it really you? ”
"Anna, it's me." Chu Tianjiang hugged Anna tightly, "Don't be afraid, I'm here, I'll take you away and take you home later." ”
"Joseph ......"
"Anna, why are there only four of you here?"
"I ...... I don't know what to do. Anna shuddered a few times. Ajelina they ......"
"They're all here, they're all right." Chu Tianjiang sighed secretly and said, "Anna, what the hell is going on, what about Lyudmina and the others?" ”
"I don't know what to do, we all fainted......"
Soon after Chu Tianjiang sent the four Anna sisters to a hiding place on the outskirts of Moscow, Zhang Xiaogang's men arrived and brought them here. During dinner, the female agent in charge of protecting them mentioned that the large group was about to arrive, and then left the place. The four sisters, Lyudmina and Anna, were very happy and had a very good appetite. Just shortly after dinner, Anna became dizzy. When she woke up, she was already in this room, and her three younger sisters were in this room. It didn't take long for Chu Tianjiang to rush over.
Could it be that the two female agents kept them here? Chu Tianjiang was secretly startled, and immediately asked, "Before falling asleep, did you notice anything wrong?" ”
"This ...... Before dinner, the fat one left for a while, and when he came back, he didn't look very good. ”
Could it be that Zhang Xiaogang and they had an accident? Chu Tianjiang found it difficult to understand. Neither of the female agents could have mutinied, and the only reason they left the four Anna sisters behind was that the large army led by Zhang Xiaogang had not arrived, and their first task was to protect Lyudmina. Since there were only two of them, they had to flee with Lyudmina. If you take the four Anna sisters, they won't be able to escape.
With Zhang Xiaogang's characteristics, he must have given a special order to the two female agents, that is, when the situation was critical, he would leave the four Anna sisters and only take Lyudmina away. If Zhang Xiaogang had thought more long-term, he would have even asked the two female agents to return to China directly with Lyudmina.
The critical situation meant that the large forces could not reach smoothly.
Zhang Xiaogang: Something must have happened to them!
"Joseph ......"
"Alright, it's okay now." Chu Tianjiang withdrew the energy body wrapped in Ajelina and the three, picked up Anna, and walked out of the room. "Nichol, you go to the other rooms and see if there are warm clothes and food, and if there is no hot food, at least cooked food."
Nichole didn't dwell on it, and immediately went in search of clothing and food.
Subsequently, Chu Tianjiang hugged Ajelina, Diana and Vera out. Nichol also brought warm clothing, including a fur coat, a down jacket, thermal underwear, polar boots, thick wool socks, and a fur hat. Apparently, the others walked in a panic and did not take a lot of their luggage with them.
Because she had already been seen by Chu Tianjiang, and Clara was a woman, the four Anna sisters did not avoid it, and directly changed their clothes and pants in the corridor.
Nichole then brought a few cans.
Chu Tianjiang took the can and directly heated the can with an energy body.
"Joseph ......" saw Chu Tianjiang heating the cans with his hands, and Anna was very surprised.
"You know, I'm not Joseph."
"Actually, he's ......"
Chu Tianjiang glared at Clara, and then said to Anna: "It doesn't matter who I am, anyway, I will send you back to the Sakha Republic." It's just that Lyudmina is gone, so I can't guarantee that your brother will be able to marry the princess. Hurry up and eat, we still have to hurry. ”
Anna and the others were also hungry, and the people who were cold were hungry very quickly.
After eating a can, Anna asked for one.
It was also at this time that Chu Tianjiang and Nichol's brows jumped a few times at the same time.
"What's wrong?" Clara had been keeping an eye on Chu Tianjiang.
"It's okay, Rachel and they're coming back." Chu Tianjiang let out a long sigh and said to Nichol, "Go find some more food and bring it later." ”
Sure enough, Rachel quickly returned, and Maya and the others returned.
"There was an army coming from Ryazan, less than twenty kilometers from here."
"Go and call Andre and them back."
"We're back." Andrei arrived first, followed by his two younger brothers. "We are almost surrounded, only to the northeast there is no enemy yet."
"How many enemies are there?"
"Many, I'm afraid thousands, tanks and heavy artillery, even helicopters."
At this time, Nichole rushed back with a bag of canned goods.
"Husband, what should I do?"
Rachel called Chu Tianjiang her "husband", and Anna immediately looked at her with wide eyes, and then at Chu Tianjiang, as if she felt that she had begun to mishear.
"Doesn't she know what to do?" Rachel noticed the change in Anna's expression.
"Joseph, she...... She's ......"
"As I said, I'm not Joseph." Chu Tianjiang was thinking about it, and his mood was a little irritable.
Clara knew how to observe words and feelings, and immediately pulled Anna away and whispered a few words in her ear, probably the relationship between Nicol and Chu Tianjiang.
"First of all, we have to get out of here, and as fast as we can. The enemy's dispatch of troops against us shows that our strength is not yet clear. However, the whereabouts of Alexei's large force are unknown, and the possibility that the enemy will dispatch mutants cannot be ruled out. "Chu Tianjiang has already thought about it." Andrei, you three brothers take care of Ajelina, Diana, and Vera. It's up to you to decide how much you want to carry in your backpack, provided you have to keep up with me. Nichol takes care of Snap, Rachel takes care of Clara, and give me all your backpacks. ”
"What's that?" Andrei asked Nichol.
"Canned."
"There's no need to bring food, we can hunt."
"This ......"
Only then did Chu Tianjiang think that the three Andre brothers were all hunters, so he nodded and said, "Just leave the food and bring enough warm clothes." ”
Nicol didn't say anything, and dropped the bag with the can.
Five minutes later, Chu Tianjiang left the safe house with the team. This time, Maya and Chloe led the way, with Isabella, Michelle and Kelly in charge.
According to Andrei's reconnaissance, the team headed in a northeasterly direction.
Fortunately, it was not yet dawn.
In winter Russia, the nights are long and the days are short, from less than 6 p.m. to 7 a.m. the next morning, and the night is almost 14 hours. Further north, for example, in St. Petersburg, the days are shortened to less than eight hours in early January.
Under the cover of night, the crowd fled before the enemy formed a siege.
When he broke out of the encirclement, Chu Tianjiang heard the roar of the beast, and the others also heard it. Obviously, there are quite a few mutants among the enemies who came to deal with them, and there are even some third mutants. If it weren't for Chu Tianjiang, they were traveling very fast, and I am afraid they would have been surrounded.
After marching more than 200 kilometers and confirming that the enemy had not caught up and would not be able to catch up for a while, Chu Tianjiang asked the team to stop.
Subsequently, Chu Tianjiang adopted Andrei's suggestion and continued to march north.
According to Andrei's analysis, the enemy will make a big move, and will definitely not let them go easily, so they will fortify the Volga to the east. Without the four sisters, Clara and Anna, they could easily cross the Volga, but with five ordinary women, it would not be so easy. Only by continuing north, reaching the far north and then advancing eastward, it will be possible to get rid of the pursuing enemy.
In Andrei's words, even the Beast Legion could not catch up with them as long as they entered the Far North.
When the team set off again, Chu Tianjiang asked the three Andre brothers to take turns to lead the way in front, and he took Maya and others to the back to be responsible for clearing the traces of the team's march.
By the time the sun rose, the team was already about 800 kilometers north of Ryazan.
