Chapter 170: The Spy
"It's so cool!" Yang Muqin stared excitedly at Liu Yeqiang, who was debugging the radio station. Although the power of this radio station is not high, it is now located on the top of the highest mountain in the vicinity, and the new world is subject to zero radio interference, so this radio station is now able to successfully communicate directly with the port of the East, which is 1,500 kilometers away.
The morning sun is hanging in the air at the moment, warming the top of the mountain, and now the weather in the interior of the Wu Dynasty has become very cold, whether it is the patriarchs or the naturalized people and captives in the camp under the mountain, they are all staying in the place where there is the sun at the moment. There was smoke in the corners of many camps at the moment, and it was obvious that they were all lighting fires to keep warm.
The three patriarchs are sitting on stones basking in the sun on a small open space cleared out of the top of the mountain at the moment, and there is also a fire in the middle of them, Liu Yeqiang has his back to the fire, facing a big stone placed behind him, and there is a radio on the stone, and at this moment the three patriarchs are holding their mobile phones to check the news. Liu Yeqiang adjusted something from time to time according to the message on his mobile phone.
There was a tree higher up next to them, and an iron antenna could be faintly seen poking it into the treetops. Under the tree is a makeshift nest, the roof is covered with thick branches and dead leaves, and the branches and leaves of the roof are gently swaying with the mountain breeze. There was a rhythmic sound of machinery coming from inside the room, a Stirling engine removed from a wrecked truck, and it was working tirelessly to drive a generator to power the radio transceiver in the den.
In fact, two hours ago, Liu Yeqiang had already told Yang Muqin that a receiver had captured the radio signal of this station, but Yang Muqin still sat next to him with great interest and watched him adjust the radio station from time to time, and Yang Muqin still looked up at the south at every turn, as if an airship would appear in the sky at any time.
"Don't keep looking at it like this," Liu Yeqiang didn't raise his head, he was basically too lazy to look at the excited and inexplicable Yang Muqin, "This is not a Didi taxi, do you think that a car will come to pick it up immediately if you press it?" That's about 1,500 kilometers! Yuan Zhenli had already sent a message just now, the speed of the airship was only about thirty-five kilometers per hour, which was already the highest at the current level, and it was necessary to pay attention to the terrain and strong winds along the way. Saying that, Liu Yeqiang opened his mobile phone and looked at the information on it, "It's already a miracle that they can come here in three days, and it's definitely in vain if you look up and look at it now!" ”
Yang Muqin smiled embarrassedly, "Haven't you never felt such a thrill?" Something that can fly will come and pick me up! ”
"What is this?" Liu Yeqiang laughed, "In fact, the design of the airship was completed during the Chinese New Year, but the chemical plant had not been put into operation at that time, and there was not enough hydrogen, otherwise it would have been built at that time." ”
"Hydrogen? Isn't that easy to catch fire? Yang Mu Qin was stunned for a moment, "If there is a fire, how can we escape?" ”
"Escape?" Liu Yeqiang shrugged his shoulders, "You think beautifully, do you think we will have enough parachutes?" And hydrogen gas is a big piece of burning gas, which can ignite everything, even if you have a parachute, you can only jump down with a fire, which is meaningless. I suggest that you better keep a bullet for your pistol, and that it is better to shoot yourself in the head when it catches fire than to follow the wreckage of the airship and crash to the ground. ”
"Don't be so alarmist, okay?" Yang Muqin was a little discouraged, "If it's so dangerous, the Senate won't allow the airship to come out!" ”
Sun Ke is not a ghost, an enemy, hateful, lonely, and cold
"This is a duck on the shelf," Lu Qi said helplessly on the side, "You must know that the situation of the northbound detachment is quite critical now, and our existing grain stock is less than two weeks, even if we send people to hunt around, it will last for a month at most." With our existing defense forces, there is no way to go out to procure food, so we can only wait for the rear to come and respond. In consideration of these circumstances, the Executive Committee had no choice but to use such a dangerous method as an airship to transport us back to the port of Vostochny. ”
"They can send a convoy to pick them up, aren't we just from the convoy?" Yang Muqin said a little unhappily, Liu Yeqiang shook his head and said, "The current traffic situation is not as accessible as in the old world, and we have been competing with bandits and robbers along the way all the way here. Compared to us and the convoys that might come, these bandits and robbers are familiar with the terrain and the favorable environment. The reason why we have been exterminating or killing and injuring a large number of bandits who are following us every 200 kilometers or so is to knock on the mountains and shock the tigers, so that those bandits and robbers will not come to attack our ideas, in fact, if they really keep attacking us all the way, we are still very likely to suffer serious losses. ”
"And voila! Aren't we suffering heavy losses now? Lu Qi said and pointed to the location of his wound, "Although we have been attacked because of the expansion of our confidence this time, we are also the proud soldiers who have never been defeated along the way, and we always think that the natives of this Wu Dynasty are all second-class goods, and they can move freely regardless of their existence." ”
"It's not bandits this time," Yang Muqin was a little unhappy, "This time it was that group of damned eunuchs who took advantage of the bandits' offensive to distract us, and the sneak attack was successful." ”
"Speaking of which, I really think it's strange, how can this group of eunuchs know our entire itinerary?" Lu Qi completely ignored Yang Muqin's protest, turned to Liu Yeqiang and said, "Not only did they follow us all the way out of Guangxi, but they never lost them, which cannot but be said to be very strange." ”
"I actually suspected this matter," Liu Yeqiang put down the matter at hand, turned around and threw a piece of firewood into the fire, and continued, "It stands to reason that the people in our northbound detachment are all politically competent characters selected from the naturalized people, and they are also protected by the special investigation team, so there should be no foreign hidden piles, but now with the posture of this group of chasing soldiers all the way, there must be someone among us who has reported and guided them along the way." ”
"There's nothing unusual about this matter," Yang Muqin pursed his lips, "Didn't you interrogate this matter when you interrogated?" ”
"Nonsense, of course," Ruch couldn't help but glance at him, "they have a strict internal hierarchy, and their subordinates have only complete obedience to their superiors, and their leader was killed by a machine gun in the middle of the battle when he led the charge...... And the people below don't know how they are chasing us, so we don't have any information. ”
"But I have a strange feeling that this enemy lurking among us must be someone we know very well." As he spoke, Liu Yeqiang tore a small piece of chopping wood in his hand along the gap and threw it into the fire. "This person is very hidden, I can feel it, but I don't know who it is."
With the sound of knocking over something, the three of them hurriedly looked over, and a gray figure disappeared in a panic near the nest. Liu Yeqiang hurriedly lay down on the ground, while Yang Muqin took out the revolver on his waist, broke the revolver and checked it, there were still two bullets in it. Lu Qi hurriedly lay down on the ground and did not dare to move again, his injuries did not allow him to make any tactical moves, just don't add to the chaos.
The only grandson of the department hated to be lonely
Yang Mu Qin rushed forward, what was knocked over just now was an iron soup pot that he was lazy and put next to the nest before, because he didn't pay attention to it when he put it, so it was randomly placed on the stone, waiting for the naturalized people below to send water to clean it, and the person who came should have accidentally knocked it down before making a sound. He kicked away the mostly withered weeds twice, and a string of trampled footprints appeared on the overgrown ground. Yang Muqin couldn't help but be stunned, this footprint seemed a little strange, from the imprint, it was clearly the footprints left by the Senate's combat canvas boots, but weren't the soldiers wearing combat boots all soldiers of the special reconnaissance team? Why do you want to run away when you see yourself?
"There's something wrong with this man!" Liu Yeqiang's voice suddenly sounded in his ears, "Look at this shoe print, the force is uneven, the same is this foot, some are deeper on the left, and some are deeper on the right." Saying that, Liu Yeqiang also pointed to two shoe prints not far apart and said, "It's obviously caused by small feet wearing big shoes!" ”
"That must be a spy!" Lu Qi also heard Liu Yeqiang's analysis, and he didn't care that he was still lying on the ground, so he hurriedly shouted, "Go and chase it!" Tell the people below to pay attention to the blocking! ”
The shout of "catch the spies" suddenly sounded on the mountain, and then the soldiers in charge of guarding halfway up the mountain immediately repeated the order loudly after hearing it, and soon the people in the camp at the bottom of the mountain also moved, and the militiamen ran to their respective battle positions, spears in their hands, and looked nervously in the direction they were responsible for. The special investigators halfway up the mountain were also holding bows and arrows in their hands at this moment, guarding on the way up and down the mountain.
"Who? Hold it! With the shouting of the command in front of him, "Password! "Fighting cocks and ......" Ye Yu couldn't help but say timidly, she actually didn't remember today's password, but vaguely seemed to remember that the chief said such a word, as for whether it was pronounced like this, she couldn't figure it out, so she could only say it at the moment to see if she could get by.
At this moment, two people came out of the bushes on the side of the road, these two men were wearing green combat uniforms and camouflage nets, the one on the left was holding a carbine, and the one on the right was holding a bow and arrow. The eyes of the person holding the gun were slightly distant, just looking up and down Ye Yu's body, the carbine hammer in his hand was not opened, and he was not ready to shoot at first glance. Now the ammunition reserves in the northbound detachment have reached an absolute warning value, and it is absolutely forbidden to shoot unless forced to do so. The special investigator on the right is different from the gunner, his hand is in a position of drawing the bow and ready to fire, holding two arrows in his right hand, one of which is already on the bowstring and the other is half on his right arm, so that he can quickly prepare for fire after firing if needed.
"What cockfighting is it for?" The person on the left laughed, "It turned out to be a small leaf!" Why are you here? ”
"What are you doing here?" The player on the right is obviously very vigilant, "There is a spy on it, do you see it?" ”
"I ...... I ......" Ye Yu couldn't help but shake her head in horror and said, "The little woman didn't see it." ”
At this moment, Ye Yu was wearing a slightly large "work clothes", a pair of canvas combat boots on his feet, and no hat on his head, just a headscarf. She has been staying in the Beishang detachment since the beginning of Beihai, and when she was in Mingzhou, Liu Yeqiang once wanted her to return to Dongfang Port with the transport fleet of Dongfang Port, but she never refused, so she came here with her. Due to her long-term malnutrition, her body is relatively thin, even if she has supplemented a lot of nutrients during the period of following the northbound detachment, her physical defects still cannot be made up in a short time. Therefore, Ye Yu is the thinnest person in the entire northbound detachment, no matter whose hat it is, the empty brim of the hat will hang down to cover the sight when it is buckled on Ye Yu's head, so Ye Yu has no choice but to wrap a headscarf on his head.
Ye Yu had already shaved his head when he was in Beihai, and he originally had a layer of fluffy hair on his head when he was in Mingzhou, but he shaved it again because of parasites. But when I got here, lice and fleas became popular again, so the entire northbound detachment now gave up shaving her head, and at this moment, a thick layer of hair was exposed next to Ye Yu's headscarf, which had grown almost three or four centimeters long in the past few months. But now she is not tall, her hair is not long, and her figure is not fully reflected under the cover of standard overalls, she looks like a tomboy at first glance, and the entire northbound detachment likes to call her "Little Yezi".
"Okay," said the player on the left, "today's password is to be high-spirited, not to fight cocks, remember, don't mess around." ”
Knot far away from the ghost ship ball cold side of the enemy
"Uh-huh," Ye Yu hurriedly repeated, "the cockfight is high-spirited." The two special investigators laughed, and the man on the right shook his head helplessly, "You just can't change that accent all at once, and when you return to Oriental Harbor, the chiefs will send you to school, and then you will have any accent corrected." ”
"Going to school?" Ye Yu shook his head a little embarrassed, "I'm a girl, and I'm going to get married when the time comes, what's the use of learning so many things?" As long as you count and know how to count the money, you won't be cheated by the traffickers of the money. ”
"Hehe, it's not the same," a member of the team interrupted her with a smile, "I remember that the chief instructor who trained us said that women are the foundation of the country, if you can't train good women, it will be even more difficult to train children in the future. ”
