Chapter 247: What's the Matter?

They have taken a long and winding road.

The road was easy to walk in the first two days, but then it was all plateau and mountains, and there were many sections of the road closed by heavy snow, and most of the roads were above 4,000 meters above sea level.

The road was difficult and supplies were in short supply, so in order to save fuel, Gao Yuan had to abandon a car very early, leaving only a military truck, so that fuel could be saved by at least one-third.

The off-road vehicle can't pull supplies, and it can't squeeze 14 people, so two cars and one car can only be squeezed into the truck.

Of course the feeling on the road is not pleasant, bumps, cold, altitude sickness, the road is really difficult.

But walking this plateau road, I didn't meet anyone along the way, and the speed was slow but safe.

Later, the highway was along the Taji-Afghanistan border, and the highway was basically parallel to the Taji-Afghanistan border, and the road condition of this section of the road was actually okay, but it was more difficult to walk.

Because the highlands seem to be much less harmed by the virus, the number of survivors has increased dramatically.

The dramatic increase in the number of survivors meant that instead of being safe, the road became extremely dangerous, and they were attacked twice after walking a short distance of about 60 kilometers.

The original sparsely populated place now seems to have become a paradise for human beings to survive, but the place of Afuhan has been in war all year round, and the materials are not short of two words, and these surviving people want to grab everything they see.

So for the sake of safety, they had to travel at night.

Without turning on the lights, night vision devices are used all the time, and on-board thermal imaging can detect no one on the road in advance.

In this way, we made it all the way to the westernmost point of the Wakhan Corridor, a place called Ishkassim.

The whole journey was at high altitude, and the heavy snow would not melt until June, July, or August or three months, and they were ready to abandon the car and walk, but they miraculously drove the car to the Wakhan Corridor.

When they arrived at the Wakhan Corridor, there were only a few dozen kilometers left from Pakistan, but the Wakhan Corridor was originally a canyon between the mountains, so when they entered the Wakhan Corridor, they could not directly enter the border of Pakistan.

Because there is still a mountain range blocking the way, if you want to enter the border of Pakistan, you must either go more than 200 kilometers east along the Wakhan Corridor, where to enter the border of Pakistan, or you will have to go all the way south in Afghanistan and walk more than 200 kilometers, and you will have to bypass the impassable mountains anyway.

Gao Yuan and the others chose to go east, and finally turned south into Bucky when they were less than a hundred kilometers away from Shenzhou.

After walking for more than a month and sparing thousands of kilometers, I just arrived at the westernmost point of China.

If it weren't for the fact that there were still a lot of remaining supplies, Gao Yuan and each of them would have just wanted to go back to Shenzhou to replenish them.

But on a sunny afternoon, the truck pulled into Pakistan along the Wakhan corridor.

Bucky had a large garrison here in the Wakhan Corridor, and when they entered Bucky through the Creek Pass, there was also a sizable military station.

But there was no one, Zhao Qiang thought that he would establish contact with the Pakistani side when he entered the country, but no, the Pakistani border was empty, and Gao Yuan didn't even meet anyone, and they crossed the border easily.

After walking thirty or forty kilometers into Bucky, Zhao Qiang finally said: "It seems that Bucky has given up here, think about it, the altitude here is too high, and you can only maintain your life by transporting supplies from the rear, and the defenders here should still not be able to hold on, so they have all withdrawn." ”

The altitude was still high, and the road was still extremely difficult, but they came along.

Now it's Kashmi.

"We have to walk in the valley along this road, and there are many small villages and towns along the way, and we can't detour on the road in this high mountain valley, but looking at the situation along the way, this high-altitude area is very little affected by the virus, maybe the villages we pass along the way will be fine."

Gao Yuan was still very optimistic, he also licked his lips and said with a smile: "Maybe I can have a serious meal." ”

No one laughed this time because it had been a long, long time since they had eaten a meal that could be called a meal.

"The street sign shows that there is a small town called Cahabad more than 120 kilometers ahead."

Zhao Qiang doesn't care about eating, he only cares about safety, and he always only cares about safety.

"Although the relationship between the two countries is good, and the emotional foundation of the people is also very good, but now is an extraordinary period, we still need to be vigilant, if, if there is really no harm from the virus, then we should not contact the local people, so as not to infect them."

Gao Yuan nodded a little depressedly.

If the places you pass on the way are full of zombies, then you can only fight over, which will be very troublesome, but if the places you pass through are not affected by the virus and there are no zombies, then you have to stay away from the crowd, and it is best not to contact them at all, so as not to spread the virus to the local area.

So no matter what, Gao Yuan and they can't have a good meal and find a bed to sleep well.

It's too difficult to go this way, but as long as you go down the plateau, there will be big cities, and as long as you get near the big cities, you should be able to get supplies, it's nothing more than the difference between finding yourself from the city occupied by zombies or being supplemented by the local government.

"There's someone ahead!"

The car was still moving slowly, but its speed suddenly slowed down and then stopped completely.

Liu Deguang, who was driving, turned his head and shouted out of the window, although the sound was not loud, but the sleepy people in the rear compartment immediately woke up.

Finally, there's finally someone!

Crucially, this is on the territory of Pakistan.

Zhao Qiang took a long breath, and then he said loudly: "I'll go to the front to negotiate, how far is the distance." ”

"Less than four hundred meters, it's a sentry post, a machine-gun position, I see someone."

Zhao Qiang perked up and said, "Let's go, go over and negotiate, Gao Yuan, Li Yang, you come with me." ”

Yu Shunzhou said excitedly: "I'll go too, I'll go too." ”

Without waiting for Zhao Qiang to speak, Gao Yuan said, "What are you going to do?" Do you understand what people say, stay in the car honestly. ”

Gao Yuan was the first to jump out of the car, and after a look outside, he immediately shouted: "This terrain is so scary, you should all come down, you should move your body here." ”

Zhao Qiang also jumped out of the car, he glanced forward, but then frowned, and said, "Don't get out of the car, Deguang, reverse the car." ”

The road in the mountain canyon, how can it be very straight, the sentry post in front is at a turning point, and the sandbags block the entire road, if they hadn't seen the sandbags exposed, Liu Deguang and they wouldn't have found anyone.

Gao Yuan was puzzled and said, "Not really, right?" Falling back, doesn't it seem a little hostile? ”

Zhao Qiang hesitated for a moment, and then he still said: "Safety first, and then go up two hundred meters." ”

It stands to reason that when it comes to a friendly country, when you meet someone, even if you are a soldier, the first thing you should do is to negotiate, not to retreat a few hundred meters first.

Zhao Qiang took a breath and said: "I'm not sure, no one can say what will happen at this time, the car is falling backwards, and the personnel are farther away, and I don't have any hostility when I go forward to negotiate, and the other party should understand." ”

Li Yang got out of the driver's seat, Li Yang also got out of the driver's seat, and then he said in a low voice: "It's Bucky's flag, I saw people just now, it's Bucky's military uniform, but after seeing us, there was no movement, and the people who stayed on the machine gun position ran backwards, which is a bit strange." ”

Li Yang looked at the national flag on the front of the car and said, "Seeing our national flag, it shouldn't be this reaction, but maybe it's a report later." ”

Zhao Qiang thought for a moment, then he waved his hand and said, "Li Yang will negotiate with me, you may need to speak Pashto, Gao Yuan......"

Gao Yuan hurriedly said: "I'd better go, shall we bring weapons?" ”

Zhao Qiang hesitated for a moment, and said: "Don't bring the spear, you bring the cold weapon, the cold weapon is not too conspicuous, everyone else should pay attention, let's go over." ”

The car began to fall backwards, and Zhao Qiang, Li Yang, and Gao Yuan began to move forward.

At this time, I could see several people on the machine-gun position in front of which the road was completely blocked.

"Seven people, no obvious hostility, but this situation ...... Not quite right. ”

Li Yang looked a little puzzled, his pace slowed down a little, then he looked at Zhao Qiang, and said in a low voice: "Boss, they take the initiative to come over to greet them, even if the situation is special now, someone should always come over and shout." ”

Zhao Qiang thought for a moment and said, "It's just that the situation is special, maybe I'm worried about being infected, let's talk away and see the situation." ”

When we were less than a hundred meters away from the machine-gun position, someone on the opposite side finally shouted: "Who are you!" ”

Zhao Qiang and Li Yang glanced at each other, and then they looked at Gao Yuan together.

Li Yang immediately shouted in Pashto: "We are from China, hello." ”

There was some commotion on the opposite side, but so far everything was normal.

Now is a special period, the whole world is in a state of apocalypse, the virus is raging, even if the relationship between the two countries is good, people do not dare to get too close out of the mentality of self-preservation, this is understandable.

There was some confusion in the position, and then several people quickly retreated, but two officers were left in place, and then the officer continued to shout in Pashto: "Shenzhou? Come on, you ...... Come first, come first. ”

The officer looked very enthusiastic, although he was still dozens of meters away, but looking at the smile on the officer's face, Gao Yuan's heart was suddenly relieved.

The officer came out from behind the bunker, stood in front of the machine-gun emplacement, and said loudly: "Welcome, my friends." ”

When there were still about 20 meters away, Li Yang stopped and said, "We may have a virus on us, let's talk from a distance, why is there a checkpoint here?" Any questions? ”

"It's just to prevent any accidents, it's hard to talk about the current situation, please come here, we all have antibodies."

As soon as he said that there were antibodies, Li Yang was relieved, he nodded at Zhao Qiang, and then the three of them continued to walk forward.

The officer didn't hug Li Yang, but he took the initiative to stretch out his hand, and then shook hands with Gao Yuan and the three of them in turn, and then the officer stretched out his hand back and said, "Why didn't the car come, please come here, come here." ”

Gao Yuan took a few steps forward and entered the machine gun position, and at this time he could see the situation behind.

It's a big makeshift barracks, and the tents are densely packed.

There were dozens of soldiers in front, looking at the three of them, but the look on their faces was a little strange, and even some soldiers were still in the machine gun emplacement made of sandbags and did not come out.

The two officers sandwiched Gao Yuan and the three of them on the left and right, all of this could be said to be reasonable, and it looked normal, but when he walked forward, Zhao Qiang suddenly smiled and said: "These people are not right, I think they are three seals, give it a try, Xiao Gao is ready to retreat, don't ask or think, let you withdraw and you will run." ”

Li Yang also smiled and turned his head to Zhao Qiang and said, "It's not right, there is a problem with the gun, I don't think there is a need to try." ”

Gao Yuan was very confused, but he also knew that he said in a very calm and relaxed tone: "What is the situation!" ”
