"Are you ready?" Ford, who was holding a beer, looked slightly sideways at Will on the side, and said in a low voice, "When will you do it?" ”

Young Will drank his beer a little greedily, he hadn't tasted the wonderful taste of alcohol in some time. Since the beginning www.biquge.info of the war, the standard of living of all people has been declining rapidly, and as time went on, as the news of the defeat continued to come, life has dropped all the way to the present time when it is almost difficult to eat.

"It's ready." Will poured the whole glass of beer into his stomach in one gulp before whispering, "Tomorrow night there will be a train transporting troops that will pass the bridge at half past one o'clock in the evening." I'm ready to get my hands dirty at that time. ”

"Hiss~~~" Even when he was a police officer, he did a lot of bad things, but after hearing Will's plan, Ford was taken aback. If the train transporting troops really happened, it would cause a very terrible situation. I really didn't expect this young man to be so ruthless, even more ruthless than himself.

In fact, because Ford spent a year in prison, he didn't know that the whole world situation had changed dramatically in that year. In order to continue the war, the United States, which had been completely defeated, had to desperately scrape up all kinds of domestic potentials to continue the war.

Because there are no colonies and allies, the Americans can only put their ideas on the heads of their own people. Many vicious tax collectors with police officers broke into houses at gunpoint and looted goods, for which I don't know how many violent clashes have occurred and how many people shed blood. Later, the Americans even sent troops to collect everything, and almost all the people hated it.

"Are you sure?" Ford asked with some concern.

"No problem." After the beer was down, Will's feeling came up. My hands are no longer shaking, my legs are no longer cramping, and my face is flushed, "I have already brought all the explosives in when I was maintaining the bridge. Just set the time for the timed detonator tomorrow night and bring it in and put it away. ”

"Good." Ford is also a ruthless person, and he recovered quickly after the shock, squinted his eyes and patted Will on the shoulder and said, "You did a good job, and when the matter is completed, the bonus that belongs to you will definitely not be less." Rest assured. ”

"That's it." Will may be young, but he's not an idiot who doesn't know anything. He hurriedly said, "It is my honor to serve the Empire. When will I be able to see my boss? ”

"Don't worry." Ford narrowed his eyes and said with a smile, "You'll have a chance when you're done." ”

In fact, Ford knew that Will didn't ask to see the agents in order to catch Daming, and he knew very well in his heart that Will just wanted to impress Daming's agents. At this time in the war, everyone already knows that there is no suspense about the outcome of the war, and now it depends on when Daming will sweep the entire United States.

At such times when the wall falls and the tree falls. Everybody wants to climb up on someone else's body, whether it's Will or Ford.

"This bastard." Young Will lowered his gaze and scolded himself in his heart: "After Lao Tzu has made a great contribution, see how you still stand in my way." When the empire rules the whole world in the future, I will have to turn over. We can't let the children continue to build the railway day and night in the future! ”

"Idiot." At this moment, Ford, who was sitting on the side, was also secretly scolding Will in his heart, "Do you really think that if you do something big, you will be able to soar?" What an idiot! You blew up the railroad bridge and blew up the train transporting the troops, and making Tokyo this big will definitely attract a hunt from all sides, do you think you will live long enough to receive the reward? Dream! ”

The bartender soon brought two more beers, and the two men with their own thoughts looked at each other with their glasses, their eyes full of affection. After smiling at each other, the two of them raised their glasses at the same time and began to drink.

"Hi, Will. Coming so early today? When Will, dressed in overalls and carrying a toolbox, approached the target railroad bridge, a familiar local National Guard soldier smiled and greeted him.

"yes, I want to finish it early today and go home to sleep." Will, who looked a little nervous, set his belongings aside for the soldiers to inspect. His face was a little ugly, and his fingers were slightly shaking. However, the hazy darkness of the night became the best disguise, and Will's abnormal reaction was not noticed by the soldiers.

In fact, Will would come here almost every day to repair the bridge, and the soldiers were unusually familiar with him. The so-called inspection is more of a formality. After briefly flipping through Will's toolbox and canvas bag, the soldier in charge of the inspection did not look any further. I closed the lid casually.

"Huh~~~" Although he knew that it was almost impossible to be discovered, after seeing the toolbox closed, Will couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Will's huge toolbox was filled with tools. But the real secret is that there is a not-so-large mezzanine underneath the toolbox. Originally, Will made this mezzanine to facilitate himself to steal things and sell them, but after he decided to do things for Daming, this mezzanine became a tool for transporting high military explosives again and again. And tonight, it's a detonation and timing device.

"Henry." After being let go, Will suddenly stopped after taking two steps, turned his head to look at the young soldier whose hairs on the corners of his mouth had not yet faded, and said in a low voice, "When are you changing the guard today?" ”

"I'm on the night shift, and I won't be on until tomorrow morning. What's wrong? The young soldier asked in confusion as he didn't mean Will.

"Nothing." Will smiled and said, "I just see that your face is a little unpleasant, if you can, you'd better go back and rest early." ”

Once on the bridge, there would be no one but Will for at least an hour, except for a patrol patrolling the bridge every ten minutes. You can rest assured to do your own thing.

As the bridge's conservator, Will is perhaps the most knowledgeable person besides the engineers about the bridge's weaknesses. He first went around checking and maintaining as before, and waited until the patrol had passed before coming to the place where the explosives were pre-planted.

Cautiously looking at his surroundings, Will removed the detonator and timer from the mezzanine of the toolbox, and installed the concealed explosives. It all had to be done in ten minutes. While patrols don't usually come to see what Will is up to, if anything, he's done.

Will, who was nervous and sweating profusely, listened to the footsteps of the patrol not far away, and his whole body was about to stiffen. Fortunately, the patrol only walked on the other side of the railway bridge, and no one came to see what the familiar maintainer was doing.

After the patrol left again, Will let out a long sigh of relief, and then stabilized his mind and finished all the work at hand. In fact, as a maintenance worker, Will, who had received simple training when he got his hands on them, was not uncomfortable with handling them.

The things the agents use are all custom-made, ranging from complex to simple. It is clear that such explosive devices are of the simple type. Will quickly set up the explosive device, carefully inspected and re-concealed it, and then hurriedly fled the soon-to-be-destroyed railway bridge.

"Quick, pack your things, let's go!" Upon returning home, Will hurriedly packed up a few simple things with his family and fled to the nearby woods, where he had been there as a child and knew that there were cabins in the woods where he could live.

At half past one o'clock the next morning, several Ming agents, accompanied by Ford, hid in a small forest not far from the target railway bridge, waiting to see the results.

A long train pulled into the railway bridge, and an agent looked down at his watch, "The time is just right, the Americans are still on time." ”

"It's a time of war, who dares not to be on time?" The other agent on the side smiled and nodded.

"Boom !!"

There was a loud bang, and halfway through the train, the railway bridge suddenly exploded. Several cars derailed, and several fell into the river.

"Alright. You're doing a good job this time. Agent Daming nodded with satisfaction as he looked at the chaotic scene in the distance, and handed a bag to Ford on the side, "This is your reward." ”

After opening the bag and seeing the gold inside, the excited Ford thanked him again and again, and said that he was willing to go to the soup for Daming. For these people, the Ming agents didn't care very much. Now there are people in the United States who are willing to do things for the Ming Dynasty.

The explosions continued to block the railway line and caused heavy casualties among hundreds of soldiers. The local garrison and police went around arresting Ming spies, and a lot of various people were arrested, but none of the major participants were caught.

Ford got the gold and ran away, not giving it to Will, who was hiding in the woods. They didn't meet again until the Ming army invaded here. By then, however, Ford had re-established himself as the local vigilante, and Will had received nothing.

Reluctantly, Will went to the occupying authorities to report the situation, and after checking with the intelligence services, the occupying forces repaid him and arranged for him to re-enter the railroad service. Of course, after returning to the railroad department, Will has become a small boss.

This kind of thing has happened many times in this era, and countless people have stomped on it when America is about to collapse. Thus gaining a ticket for himself to have a good life after the war. (To be continued.) )
