Chapter 252: Yunchuan's Root Festival
After the old man went back, the old town of Yunchuan, which had been in chaos, quickly settled down again. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Everything seems to be back to the way it was before Ornes came to town.
The scattered soldiers returned to their original positions, and there were vendors and pedestrians in the streets outside.
Although there was still no governor in the city, it was only natural that Ornes made it his office.
Since the 1st Parachute Squadron is still fighting, the battle in Yunchuan has not subsided.
As for the rebels who fled into the jungle, Barrett did not let his men continue the pursuit, and he ordered all but the twelve squads that had built a defensive line and routinely cleared the battle, and the other troops entered the city to carry out repair operations.
It may seem like there is no attack intensity, but only the soldiers fighting on the front line understand how difficult it is to endure in this swampy jungle, which is full of dangers.
The intensity of the battle encountered by the 2nd Parachute Squadron was not much higher than that of the Army.
But the injury rate is over 40 percent, which is a very dangerous number.
The main reason is, of course, the extremely poor environment in the jungle, where there are poisonous needle plants everywhere, and all kinds of poisonous insects and demonic beasts are also important reasons for the danger.
After two days of recuperation, the soldiers again went to the jungle to replace their comrades who had been fighting there for two whole days.
Before leaving, Major Paize also came to find Barrett.
"Then it's a matter of time, but I don't know if the above will send us to the new city for reinforcements, and the first squadron is not going well."
It's not that he doesn't want to end the battle quickly, but going to reinforce the first squadron at this time is likely to make the rebels in the jungle regroup.
Although the leader of the rebels is dead, the clones are not robots scattered without a leader, and they possess considerable self-adaptability.
Just as people can inspire a very strong will to survive in a desperate situation, these clones also have such things, so Barrett didn't dare to send a team into the forest to clear them at will, but chose to encroach on them and surround them.
But the people above don't necessarily think so, they just want to quickly solve these guys, but the casualties of the soldiers, does it make sense?
It's just a line of data in an electronic document......
"No way, just wait for the order from above." Patting him on the shoulder and comforting him, Barrett watched him leave the city.
War is not a game, and for the 2nd squadron, such a hasty transfer can be described as meaningless.
But for the 1st Squadron, this may be what they desperately need.
After all, no one wants to die of their own people, which is the basic condition of every qualified commander.
The old man didn't make any movement in the past two days, as if nothing had happened.
Strange to say, the old man lived in a mansion near the city walls, but this mansion did not come in and out every day except for a car that went out in the morning.
I go in the morning and go back in the evening, and the location I go to is also very fixed, which is the Chamber of Commerce Hall in the old city of Yunchuan.
This is actually the hall of the Mozhu Chamber of Commerce in the past, but since the old man passed the position of president to his apprentice Mr. Wang Hui, the hall here has been demolished.
There was nothing to hang up, just a storefront placed there, and there was only one young man looking boredly at his phone behind the paulownia wooden table.
Because of Paize's reminder, Barrett was a little anxious.
Since the old man didn't come to him, he had to take the initiative, so he was standing at the door of the Chamber of Commerce's storefront now.
"Do you have something? Why don't you come in and talk about it? "When the young man saw Barrett in military uniform, he still knew the gray uniform of the Air Force.
Although the guild hall is no longer in business, it still needs to see people, so he got up and asked.
"I'm here to ......" Halfway through his words, Barrett suddenly remembered that he didn't know the old man's name at all, he just knew that it was Mr. Wang Hui's master.
Scratching his head, he could only bite the bullet and say, "I'm here to find your old lady." ”
The young man was stunned for a moment, frowning slightly.
But since the visitor was a guest, he couldn't just stand like this, so he let Barrett in and asked cautiously, "Our old lady?" Our old man is not a guest. ”
He was right, the old man was in his nineties, and he couldn't be seen by anyone.
"Well, I'm sorry for you to report it, even if the old man really doesn't see me." Barrett didn't have a problem, he could only continue, if the old man really didn't see him, he could only leave.
The young man thought about it for a moment, got up and went into the inner room, and soon a little girl came out with a teapot and served Barrett tea.
The little girl looked at Barrett with interest, but did not speak.
Just stood aside and looked at him, and then smiled softly.
Barrett was a little embarrassed to look at, but it was really difficult for a girl to open his mouth to speak first.
He could only pretend not to see it, and he was fighting with the tea stalk in the teacup.
After a while, the young man came out of the room.
"I'm sorry that the old man is gone." The young man shook his head and said, but he slowed down and continued: "But the old man asked me to ask, what kind of identity are you?" ”
Barrett was a little confused, and he could only reply, "Identity? I was the deputy captain of the battleship with the rank of colonel. ”
How do you know that the young man shook his head with a smile and said, "It's not your position, but what kind of identity you are." In the southern star region, above this cloud river. ”
Speaking of this, Barrett knew what the old man meant, no matter how dull he was, but he couldn't answer.
Can it be said that it is the same thing, this matter was all arranged by Nopro, and there was no affirmative answer from Erie's side at all.
As for Doroniel, she herself has nothing to do with Yun Chuan, and Barrett really doesn't know how to explain it.
Seeing that he was embarrassed and thought for a long time, the young man said, "You better go back and think about it carefully, and it's not too late to come back when there is a result." Of course, this is the old man's statement. ”
He also made a point of emphasizing that these were all told to him by the old man, and it seemed that the old man had expected Barrett's reaction......
Barrett opened his mouth to say something, but finally held back, stood up and said goodbye.
Out of the Chamber of Commerce, Barrett walked to City Hall.
It's not that simple! The old man is shrewd......
In the Chamber of Commerce, although the little girl didn't say a word from beginning to end, it didn't mean that she couldn't understand.
When Barrett walked away, she asked, "Senior brother~ This person is the apprentice of Master Zu?" Why have you never seen him before? ”
The young man turned his head to look at her before replying, "He is your master's brother, so he speaks in a measured manner." ”
After speaking, he sat back behind the table, took out his mobile phone and continued to click, but his mouth was not idle: "Go back and serve the old man, it's another day of playing with birds." I don't know when this one will figure it out. ”
The little girl was not angry, and turned around and went back to the inner room, with a strange smile on her little face.
Seeing her leave, the young man muttered, "If you don't learn business from your master, you have to learn martial arts...... Alas......"
