Three days later, Andrei brought Valentin and sent fifty sets of warm clothes and pants and fifty pairs of women's leather shoes, and according to Chu Tianjiang's instructions, he brought five sets of tights that Nicol and the others wore. Because this kind of tights is specially made, in addition to strong shaping ability, with a certain bulletproof and stab-proof function, it also has a very good warmth effect, much better than the previous tights.

These five outfits were for Connie and the others.

Because before coming to the United States, Zhang Xiaogang prepared several sets for Nicol and the others, so when Chu Tianjiang proposed to divide them into five sets, Nicole and the others did not object.

It took another three days for Chu Tianjiang to lead his team to the rendezvous point two hundred kilometers north of Las Vegas.

Because arrangements were made in advance to let Connie and the others sleep during the day and recuperate their spirits, Chu Tianjiang led the team on the road after dinner.

Traveling at night is a little more troublesome, but it's safer.

The patrols sent by the Las Vegas white group mainly protect the caravans within their reach, and because the caravans are rarely active at night, the patrols usually return to Las Vegas before sunset. Of course, no one wants to leave the city at night.

The only things to watch out for at night are cougars and wolves.

Of course, to Chu Tianjiang, these beasts were not a threat at all.

In the past six days, in the first two days, Chu Tianjiang asked Connie and the others to focus on mastering the skills of using firearms, as well as some basic tactical skills, such as suppressing the enemy with crossfire, alternating cover advances in pairs, and so on. In the next two days, Chu Tianjiang fully mobilized Nichol and them, focusing on martial arts skills training, which also made Connie and the others taste enough hardships, and left a lot of bruises on their bodies. In the last two days, they will focus on physical training, through which they will improve their running, jumping and climbing skills. As for the endurance training that Chu Tianjiang valued the most, because the time was limited and the activity area was restricted, there was no way to carry it out for the time being.

Although it was only six days, Chu Tianjiang believed that Connie and the others would at least not drag the caravan back.

Perhaps, their individual abilities are far inferior to those free mercenaries, but their will to fight is definitely above that of free mercenaries. If they encounter an enemy, even if they can't fight like a warrior, they can only protect themselves, and they will never be slaughtered. Compared with the maids in the caravan, they are not only truly free people, but also free people with the ability to protect themselves.

Because the agreed rendezvous time was the evening of the next day, and the caravan would depart the next morning and arrive at the rendezvous point in the evening, Chu Tianjiang did not rush to leave, and took this opportunity to teach Connie and them some ways to remove traces, such as how to cleverly camouflage the wheel prints left by the vehicle.

Of course, long marches are also an effective way to build endurance.

Before dawn, when Connie and the others were too tired to walk, Chu Tianjiang asked the team to stop, and then asked Nichol and the others to distribute the food.

It's just that Chu Tianjiang didn't let the team stay long.

After resting for less than an hour, that is, after all fifty women had breakfast and solved the internal urgency, Chu Tianjiang took the team on the road again.

The key to endurance training is to push your limits and consolidate after that breakthrough.

Chu Tianjiang has a deep understanding of this. In the past, when he conducted physical training in the Tiger Brigade, whenever he thought that he could no longer hold on, Liu Zhanbo and Wu Haiyuan would encourage him, and even spur him on, so that he could persevere, and as long as he persevered, his physical limit would be greatly improved. This method is not only applicable to men, but also to women, and it is more effective. You must know that women's physiological tolerance is inherently stronger than that of men. For example, in the event of a lack of water, adult males can survive for up to fifteen days, while adult females can survive for twenty-one days.

By noon, the procession stopped for the second time.

This time, in addition to eating, Chu Tianjiang let Connie and the others rest for an hour and a half, and the team stayed for a total of two hours.

What surprised Chu Tianjiang was that Connie and the others had not complained, and none of the fifty women complained, they all just silently followed Chu Tianjiang and Nichol. Maybe it's because of Nichol, because Connie and the others don't know about Nichol's situation. Losing to Chu Tianjiang, fifty women have nothing to complain about, but compared with Nichol and others, who are also women in their eyes, Connie and the others will naturally not admit defeat. In order to earn a respectable position in the team, they are even more reluctant to admit defeat. What made Chu Tianjiang even more incomprehensible was that Nicol and the others were also little women, knowing that Dao Connie and the others were ordinary people, and they did not have a body composed of energy bodies like them, but they refused to back down in the slightest, but instead led the team to move forward quickly. If it weren't for Chu Tianjiang pressing the formation in the middle and controlling the speed of advancement, I'm afraid that before dawn, all fifty women would be tired and crawl down.

Thinking of this, Chu Tianjiang really didn't know what to say.

Clara is right, Chu Tianjiang is very good at liking women, but he doesn't understand women at all, especially women's unique minds.

In the evening, the team arrived at the rendezvous point.

It's two hundred kilometers from Las Vegas, almost on the edge of the white group's power range, and daytime patrols have to return to Las Vegas before dark, or to the town south by four.

At this time, night is about to fall, and there will definitely be no patrols within a radius of several tens of kilometers.

Before sunset, Andrei, who led the team in front, arrived first.

According to Chu Tianjiang's instructions, Connie and the others hid about two kilometers away from the road. When the caravan arrives and sets up camp here, Nicole and the others will bring them over. That way, it won't be noticed by the hired guards. Regarding Connie's identity, Chu Tianjiang also made a special arrangement, that is, let them mix in the female slaves bought by Stewart first, and after arriving in Salt Lake City, let Connie come forward to form a mercenary army, and then Stuart officially hired them to protect the caravan.

A short time later, the advance escort arrived and began to set up the camp.

When the caravan arrived, it was already past eight o'clock in the evening.

Seeing Stewart, Chu Tianjiang knew that he had a good life in the past few days, maybe he took a small advantage when buying slaves, otherwise he wouldn't be so happy.

"Lao Chu, I really admire you so much."

"Admire me?"

"Yes, not only did he dare to drop Perez and snatch his slave girl, but he didn't leave any traces, so that the Denver Chamber of Commerce had no way to take us."

"Stewart, it's still far from Houston."

"Afraid of what?" Stuart Haruha smiled and said, "If you do this, I'm also famous in Las Vegas." The Chamber of Commerce has sent word that a convoy has been sent to Denver to pick me up and take me back to Houston. In addition, the President has formally invited you to Houston. ”

"You know, I'm only going to Denver, not to Houston."

"I said so, but the president still invited you to Houston." Stuart sighed and said, "As for whether to go or not, it's your business, I'm just bringing the words to." ”

"Let me think about it and I'll get back to you when I get to Denver."

Stewart nodded, and then went into detail about what had happened in the past few days.

On the day Perez fled Las Vegas, his deacon sent the slave girl he had bought to the trading floor for auction over six days. Stewart bribed a staff member at the trading floor, got the news in advance, and delayed it for an additional six days. Many other slave traders left Las Vegas before the auction began, and most of the other slave traders who stayed to compete with Stewart were scalpers. Obviously, a scalpers would never buy a slave girl at a high price and then wait until the next large-scale auction to sell it. As a result, over the course of six consecutive days of auctions, Stewart had bought all the slaves at a relatively low price.

Because of his generosity, Stewart was also invited to a dinner hosted by the president of the Las Vegas White Group, a powerful person in charge of business and trade.

Like other large separatist powers, the Las Vegas white group has three powerful men in charge of armed power, commerce and trade, and intelligence and diplomacy. Of course, these three magnates are not called the same in various separatist powers, and in Las Vegas they are called "Governor", "President" and "Commander-in-Chief" respectively. These three magnates control the entire separatist force, and they are also the core of the entire separatist force.

Stewart paints a vivid picture of the dinner party and mentions the blood diamond. According to him, the president also specifically mentioned the matter of colored diamonds, suggesting that if there is a better colored diamond, he can go directly to him, and there is no need to take it to another place to redeem.

It's just that Chu Tianjiang has no interest in this topic.

To put it bluntly, if the president knew that Clara's neck was not stained glass, but a fifty-carat blood diamond and dozens of ten-carat blue diamonds, I am afraid that the Las Vegas white group would send out all the legions to wipe out Stewart's caravan in one fell swoop.

Showing wealth when the strength is not strong enough, if not killing yourself, is also asking for trouble.

After Stewart finished happily, Chu Tianjiang understood something. Stewart has been highly valued by the Houston Chamber of Commerce, and the key is not how much wealth Stuart squandered in Las Vegas, but Chu Tianjiang, who helped Stuart expand the size of his caravan. To put it bluntly, the Houston Chamber of Commerce attaches great importance to Chu Tianjiang. In this way, not only can Stuart not be allowed to return to Houston with a bag of diamonds, but he must stay in Salt Lake City for a few days, let him buy some slaves, that is, let him return with a full load, maybe Chu Tianjiang will have to go to Houston himself. If you want to unite with the Houston Chamber of Commerce and let the Houston Chamber of Commerce cooperate with Lakewood's Asian American group to assist the Asian American group in dealing with the Jewish group, it is even more necessary for Chu Tianjiang to go to Houston in person.

Chu Tianjiang was a little big, because it meant that it would take more time.

However, having come this far, we can only continue to move forward. Even if we don't consider the fate of Connie and the more than 2,000 slaves, changing course now will only make all the previous efforts go to waste, and then spend more time trying to get the support and assistance of the Asian American community.
