Chapter 264: Ice and Snow (I)

When the transport plane began to slow down and reduce its flight altitude, Chu Tianjiang and the others were already ready to parachute. Because all the people involved in the operation were X Doomsday soldiers, Chu Tianjiang and Nichol didn't need to say much, so Zhang Xiaogang did not prepare a high-altitude parachuting suit.

Chu Tianjiang took off his civilian clothes and changed into a set of tight-fitting parachuting suits.

Nicol and the others were no exception, and in order to facilitate parachuting, they all changed into tight skydiving suits.

Zhang Xiaogang first arranged for the X Doomsday Warrior to parachute off the plane, followed by Chu Tianjiang and Nichol, and Zhang Xiaogang himself jumped out of the cabin after the last.

According to the arrangement, the transport aircraft will then turn back to home.

By this time, it was already getting dark.

Chu Tianjiang first caught up with Nichol, then Rachel, Maya and others, and finally Kelly, and then the eight of them formed a huge "garland" in the air.

The altitude from the plane was less than 5,000 meters, and it took two minutes to reach the altitude of the parachute.

The eight of them hugged each other, and the falling speed was much slower. It didn't take long for Zhang Xiaogang to pass them, and the X-Doomsday Warrior, who was the first to leave the plane, had already opened his parachute.

Chu Tianjiang felt that Nicol and the others were very excited.

Although they had skyjumped before, they had never done a skydive, let alone played tricks while skydiving, as they do now.

When there were still a thousand meters above the ground, Chu Tianjiang first let go of Nichole and Kelly, and then gestured for them to open the umbrella.

As the "garland" spread, the distance expanded to about a hundred meters, and eight people pulled their parachutes at the same time.

When Chu Tianjiang and the others stepped on the ground, everyone else had already landed, and some had even packed their parachutes. Zhang Xiaogang happened to be near Chu Tianjiang's landing site, he smiled at Chu Tianjiang and shook his head, as if he felt that Chu Tianjiang was too fond of showing off, and he had to play a trick when he parachuted.

When Chu Tianjiang and the others packed their parachutes, Zhang Xiaogang asked a few X Future Warriors to lead the team on the road.

Half an hour later, the group came to a parking lot next to a road. To be precise, it's a rest area on a highway with a gas station, grocery stores, restaurants, public restrooms, and a passenger rest center with parking for hundreds of vehicles.

In a short time, the X-Doomsday Warriors had more than a dozen vehicles ready.

Most of them are civilian off-road vehicles, although they are all "luxury cars" such as Land Rover, Mercedes-Benz, BMW and Audi, but there is nothing special about them. The most striking thing is the other four vehicles, three of which are BTR-90 wheeled armored vehicles, and the other is a 39-seater bus.

This bus is very special, the body is reinforced with steel plates, all the windows are sealed with steel plates, replaced with run-flat tires with central air pressure regulation, the engine is also replaced with a military turbocharged diesel engine with a greater success rate and torque, which can use various fuels, and an exhaust pipe extending to the roof is installed, and bulletproof glass with a thickness of 15 centimeters is installed on the windshield.

"This is for us?"

"You guys?" Zhang Xiaogang glanced at Chu Tianjiang and said with a smile, "You think too beautifully, this is specially prepared for Alexei and Polina, and the BTR-90 over there is your family's car." Don't forget, your current identity is Joseph. ”

Chu Tianjiang was stunned for a moment, and then smiled bitterly.

"However, I can lend it to you now."

"Just borrow it."

"You're going to let Nicole and the others change their clothes in the open dam?"

Chu Tianjiang rolled his eyes and said, "Do you still need to change your clothes?" ”

"Of course, I prepared a few special clothes for them. It's made of materials from the Doomsday Warrior system, and it's dyed black to their liking. Although there is no central control system, it is easy to put on and take off, and it is more conducive to moving at night. ”

Chu Tianjiang knew that this was a good thing, so he didn't ramble anymore, called Nicol and the others over, and asked them to get in the car and change their clothes.

When the seven "flower butterflies" got off the bus, they all put on a fur coat. Although Nicol and the others are not afraid of the cold, and the tights that Zhang Xiaogang prepared for them have a strong ability to keep them warm, the female agent dressed as Polina deliberately asked them to wear fur coats. The reason is that it is now late November, and the harsh winter in Russia has arrived, with the maximum temperature during the day at minus 15 degrees Celsius, and the minimum temperature at night can drop to minus 35 degrees Celsius.

Although the fur coat was a bit cumbersome, Nikol and the others wore it like a Russian noblewoman.

After getting ready, Zhang Xiaogang beckoned everyone to get in the car.

The BTR-90 can accommodate ten people, namely the commander, the gun commander and the driver, as well as seven passengers. Zhang Xiaogang arranged a driver, but Chu Tianjiang felt that there was no need for this, he would drive this kind of wheeled armored vehicle that was heavily equipped by the Russian army, and Nicol and the others could also learn it.

Zhang Xiaogang did not object, and arranged the BTR-90 driven by Chu Tianjiang in the middle of the convoy, in front of the bus.

Soon, the convoy was on the road. The BTR-90 was open and the other was broken, and the twelve off-road vehicles were divided into two teams, with the BTR-90 driven by Chu Tianjiang and the bus in which Zhang Xiaogang was riding in the center. Because the roads were covered with snow, some sections were icy, and the buses were too heavy, the speed of the convoy was controlled at about 60 kilometers per hour. In case of damaged road sections, you have to pass at a low speed.

This speed is not even comparable to the speed of this army's march on foot.

It's just that the preparation is well done.

For example, the BTR-90 piloted by Chu Tianjiang not only has a standard 30 mm machine gun, a 7.62 mm parallel machine gun, a 30 mm automatic grenade launcher and an AT-5 anti-tank missile launcher, and a base ammunition, but also a full set of individual equipment for a seven-person infantry squad in the crew compartment, including a general-purpose machine gun, two light machine guns and three assault rifles, as well as thousands of rounds of ammunition and two individual rocket launchers. In addition, half a ton of food was loaded. On the roof of the car, tents and other camping items are carried.

According to Zhang Xiaogang's arrangement, there were twelve X Doomsday Warriors on each BTR-90 wheeled combat vehicle, three X Doomsday Warriors on each off-road vehicle, and in addition to him and the female agent dressed as Polina, there were two men, two women, and four X Doomsday Warriors on the bus.

Counting Chu Tianjiang, Nicol and others, there are a total of sixty-two people in this team.

Chu Tianjiang didn't ask about those female X Doomsday Warriors. Even if she hadn't tuned women into X-Warriors by adding an invisible Y chromosome, as Natasha and Kelly did, there's a good chance Melanie would have found other solutions after being transformed by the invaders. Those female agents are all X-Doom Warriors without exception, so the technique of concocting female X-Warriors should have been applied on a large scale.

In this world where there are more women than men, making full use of women's value is the main way to strengthen the country.

Heading west, there was no trouble except for a few places where landslides or mudslides blocked the road, and a few collapsed bridges.

Half an hour before dark, the team set up camp on an open plain less than a kilometer from the road.

Because of the availability of vehicles, it is not possible to camp in a difficult place. One of the advantages of camping on an open plain is that it can detect approaching enemies in time.

Shortly after dark, the X-Doomsday Warriors, who had gone out to investigate the situation, returned one after another.

No settlements have been found within a radius of 20 kilometres, and the only two villages have long since been abandoned, with the nearest town more than 30 kilometres away.

The pathfinders also made the discovery that a few kilometers to the north, there was a natural hot spring.

Obviously, except for Chu Tianjiang and Nicole, no one wanted to go to the hot springs. After a day of traveling, it took a lot of effort to cross the river and pass through the blocked sections, and even the X-Doomsday Warriors were exhausted, and they had to take turns guarding at night, and everyone wanted to rest early.

After dinner, Chu Tianjiang took Nicol and the others out of the camp and went to the hot springs.

Zhang Xiaogang didn't care about them, and he couldn't care about them. As for their safety, there is no need to worry about it, no one in this world can deal with Chu Tianjiang.

For Chu Tianjiang, there is little point in soaking in hot springs. Although soaking in the hot springs made him feel comfortable, it did not help to restore his strength and boost his energy. Chu Tianjiang is mainly for Nichol and them, or to satisfy their hobby of having fun.

The spring is on the nearby hillside, forming a small stream and a large pond in the depression below the hillside. The water temperature at the spring is above 60 degrees Celsius, and when it flows into the pond, it drops to about 50 degrees Celsius, which is a suitable temperature.

Due to the hot springs, there is no snow near the pond.

Although no one would come here, Chu Tianjiang still used his energy body to set up a cordon five hundred meters away.

By the time he returned, Nicol and the others were already in the pond. The fur coat hung from a nearby tree, and the tights were thrown by the pool.

Chu Tianjiang didn't plan to rush into the water, but he was dragged down by Rachel.

After a while, the Mayans lay on their backs, their bodies soaked in the water, rested their heads on the rocks by the pond, and fell asleep.

Nichol and Rachel frolicked with Chu Tianjiang for a while before falling asleep on Chu Tianjiang's shoulder.

Thinking of building such a hot spring pool in the river valley home, and thinking of being able to soak in hot springs like this in the future, Chu Tianjiang felt very comfortable. As long as the world is stable, there is no longer a need to run around, work hard for the country, the nation, and human civilization, Chu Tianjiang hopes that every night in winter can be like this. Even if you don't do anything, just watch your wife sleep sweetly, it's a very happy thing.

Not long after, Chu Tianjiang also fell asleep in a drowsy state.

Although Chu Tianjiang didn't need to sleep for a long time, as long as he had the opportunity, he would also fall asleep and enjoy the happiness that could only be obtained in his dreams.

For many people, in this turbulent world, a dream is simply a luxury.

It's a kind of happiness to be able to dream.

It's just that even after falling asleep, Chu Tianjiang is still awake and vigilant.

In the second half of the night, when the energy body on the cordon was touched, Chu Tianjiang immediately woke up, and immediately got up, vigilantly watching the direction where the danger was coming.
