The caravan was loaded with special products purchased from all over the south, such as the furs of the Black Mountain beasts, the sour plums, and the blood-sucking mosquitoes...... Talking along the way, Simon learned that the Iron and Steel City has a resident population of more than 100,000, which is certainly not worth mentioning compared to the pre-war period, but in the new era, the settlement of more than 1,000 people has the courage to call it a city, not to mention the "dense" population of the Great Lakes Industrial Zone, which has unlimited opportunities?

"Four of the six water purification plants were controlled by the Dewey family, which were provided for irrigation crops in the area around the lake." Simon was talking to a caravan guard, the road was calm and boring, and under the protection of dozens of M16s and bikers, no blind force dared to attack the caravan with the emblem of the Iron City. Simon smoked a few cigarettes, and the guard spoke freely.

As if seeing Simon's doubts, the guard disdainfully flicked off the soot, and the middle finger of his index finger was scorched, "Every outsider who hears this verse thinks that we can use it to water the crops if we can't drink all the water, hehe, phew!" ”

"The pure-bloods of the Black Wall don't have to worry about eating and drinking, and they refuse to give water to the civilians when they are used for farming!" The guard spat indignantly, and Simon asked rhetorically, "What about the citizens?" ”

"Citizens?" The guard seemed to have heard some big joke, his face was full of surprise, and the flame burned to the cigarette butt and did not drop it, and said: "The people of the black wall are citizens!" Including the first student, we are all residents, yes, Steel City is free, democratic and open, coin pure water everywhere, we are the stars of the north! ”

There was a slight commotion in front of the team, a communication flag was erected, and the guard hurriedly threw down his cigarette butt and said, "Forget it, man, I won't destroy your good faith in Steel City for the time being, remember, the road ahead is promising." ”

"There's a long way to go." Simon casually crumpled the empty cigarette case, sadly to find that he was about to lose his cigarettes, a box of inferior cigarettes 50 coins, but it was very important for the difficult world to slightly paralyze his senses, Simon tightened his collar and quickened his pace.

"Blood Cross." Adolfina hid her face in her cloak and said, in the telescope Gilpin saw a sign standing steadily on the side of the road in the distance, and every caravan heading north along the Southern Interstate Highway to Steel City would tacitly guarantee its maintenance, and the white arrow read "Steel City, 100 kilometers." "But the horizontal and vertical red cross adds a bit of hideousness.

Gilpin's face was gloomy and he said, "Lads, open the safety and load the bullets." Adolfina raised her index finger, and her white finger was stained with some dry red paint.

"I've tasted it, it's not blood, it's red paint."

Gilpin was so relieved that he climbed on the two-headed ox and shouted, "Go according to the old rules, and leave the Crusaders money to buy the road under the street signs!" Lads! Move fast! Move fast! ”

"Da-da." Gilpin snapped his fingers twice and motioned to his assistant: "You look at the street signs, after everyone passes, you will paint the blood cross again!" Remember, it must be everyone! ”

The caravan untied the containers, methodically but cursingly took out one-fifth of the various goods and placed them neatly on the side of the road, Simon asked Jonathan, "What happened?" ”

"Blood Cross." Jonathan said, the giant man's hand holding the shotgun bloomed with green tendons, snorting and panting, Peter hurriedly fed his father a few anti-radiant Ning, which gradually calmed down his anger, Peter put his hands in the pockets of his trench coat, quite indifferent: "Anyone who has a street sign with a blood crusade insignia must leave one-fifth of their belongings, otherwise the crusaders will personally come to take your money and life." ”

"It's a hundred kilometers away from the Iron City district!" Simon couldn't believe it, he clearly saw that the caravan was equipped with several heavy locomotives, and no matter how slow the Iron City army reacted, it could catch up with the support!

Peter pulled out his gun, checked the full magazine, and reminded, "One hundred and a half ninety." ”

Adolfina floated around behind Simon at some point, and Simon could hear her deliberately indifferent tone mixed with some uneasiness, "Come with me?" I don't believe in the Crusaders. ”

Simon looked around, the vast field was undulating, Adolfina was good at disguise, it was her home field, so Simon shook his head and refused: "I believe in myself." The continued distrust did not move Adolfina, and she took off her hood, stood on tiptoe and whispered, "You are my personal property." Before her prey could get angry, she disappeared again.

After Gilpin broke off with a few guards, he saw the last person in the caravan pass the street sign and sighed: "One-fifth of the profit, let's go!" Erase the cross! The assistant threw a tall white cloth with all his might, covering the vertical blood cross.

"Bang dang." The sound of heavy objects falling from the street sign railing. "Did I deduct your rations? Stand! Gilpin turned his head and said, but the assistant stared at him with an extra red eye on his forehead.

"Wait." Simon stretched out his hand to stop Peter, "Listen......" He listened carefully to the chaotic wind with his ears, and then his face changed greatly, Simon screamed: "Lie down!" He slammed Peter's back by the neck, and the two of them smashed into the yellow sand together.

"Woo~" The airflow disturbed the mortar's tail bell, and the fuse was lifted in the rapid rotation, cutting out a sound like a witch's scream, and the 380g high-explosive / medicine set off an overwhelming sandstorm, and the continuous shells fell in the caravan queue in a row, in just a moment,

Giant hands tore the caravan to pieces, and two-headed oxen weighing tons were thrown into the air, crushing several people who could not escape into a pulp amid the howls of animals and people.

A round of shelling was like a desert shower, coming and going quickly, Simon knew that it must be a violent attack of the enemy army immediately after the shelling, he continued to pull Peter, who was crazy and wanted to stand up, the sand and blood sauce stuck to the young man's face, Simon said hoarsely: "Get down, get down!" If you don't want to die, follow me! ”

Simon crawled to the clumping corpse of the two-headed cow before taking a deep breath, coldly pulled off the M16 of a guard beside him who had been shaved off by shrapnel, stuffed it to Pete, and said, "Rip this man's armed belt off!" Don't pull the trigger! He didn't feel embarrassed when he heard the howl, and Simon tore off the muzzle strip of the M110 gun in two and two and set it between the two corbels, looking for the enemy who would emerge from the wilderness in the next moment.

"Whole team, whole team!" Gilpin was lucky enough to scratch only a little skin, and he quickly walked through the chaotic crowd, and when he met the stunned caravan guard, he woke up with an old fist and shouted: "Build a defensive line!" Rings! Gilpin grabbed the headless fly-like locomotive driver and woke him up, "Drive away, go to the city to bring rescuers!" Go! ”

The driver trembled and lifted the locomotive that had fallen to the ground, and hung the throttle several times before starting, obviously the shelling scared everyone a lot, the locomotive just drove out of the caravan everywhere, and immediately rolled on its side, Gilpin hated the palm of his hand, grabbed the cow corpse and gathered it, and shouted: "Sniper! Stoop! ”

The scorching wilderness distorted one's distant vision, but a red shadow roared out of the horizon, the convoy was painted blood red, the windows were covered with white crosses on the outside of the armor, and the vehicle at the head was a wheeled chariot! The attacker stepped on the accelerator and black smoke billowed out.

"Hell it." SIMON SPOTTED THE RAIDING CONVOY BEFORE ANYONE ELSE, THE SCOPE CROSSHAIRS WERE STARING AT THE 20MM CANNON ON THE ROOF OF THE INFANTRY TANK, AND HE EVEN SAW THE MUZZLE FLARE BRAKES, HOW COULD THESE CRUDE BUNKERS AT THE MOMENT WITHSTAND THE SHELLS AS THICK AS A CHILD'S ARM? If it was in the old days when he was fully armed, Simon could still deceive himself into throwing anti-tank grenades, but now, how to fight! How to fight!

Attacked, return fire, this is the Creed of the Rangers, and it is also Simon's Creed, the sniper silently removed the barrel of the M110, and pulled out a 50 caliber barrel from his backpack, Simon withdrew the magazine and handed it to Pete, saying: "Withdraw the bullets, replace them with new ones." The boy was stunned, and then relieved.

With the aftermath of the shelling, the blood-colored convoy quickly approached the side of the caravan, and the guards' unremarkable bullets found nothing but sparks in vain, and at the end, they dropped their guns in despair.

The convoy lay beside the roadbed without firing a shot, from left to right, a water of Humvees, how many vehicles represent how many machine guns, Gilpin raised his hands, walked to the infantry chariot, and shouted: "Crusaders! We left the passage fee according to the rules! It's only 100 kilometers from the Steel City! Do you want to provoke a war? ”

The door was kicked open, and a megaphone was handed out, and the tone was brutal: "I admit that you have obeyed the rules of the Crusaders, but obeying the rules is a blank sheet of paper that only the weak regard as a talisman. ”

"You slaughtered the Steel S3 caravan! Do you think the master behind you can keep you before the Iron Thirteen Councils! Crusade! Gil straightened his back, not knowing if he was introverted or if he was really afraid.

A low, continuous laugh came over the loudspeaker, "Hey, I want to ask you a question." ”

"Didn't your mother teach you to be respectful and humble in front of adults with guns, especially big guns?"

"Besides, the Scarlet Crusaders, the most desired."

"War!" The megaphone popped out "WAR! The word has led the diatonic frenzy, and each sonorous 12.7mm machine gun bullet is a musical note, and the explosion of flesh into a fog is a footnote, the musical scale, and the scale is climbing steadily! However, in the absence of the most passionate paragraph.

The barrel of the 20mm cannon was blown to one side, and it was disconnected diagonally, as if it was a branch that had been repeatedly broken off by a naughty boy, and the loudspeaker stretched out angrily, and roared violently: "Who broke my cannon!" Run out of bullets! Kill them all! ”

Despite the cushioning of the shoulder socket and the strong recoil brought by the supercharger, Simon felt that a hammer had smashed his bones from the inside out, but this was not the time to care about the pain or not, Simon retreated to the other side of the roadbed with his gun, the M2 machine gun spat out several tongues of fire and swept across the caravan on the road, and the caravan guards who had just lost their leader were lying in the yellow sand, they were still waiting, they came from the Steel City, the largest city in the north, the industrial city, the brightest human star in the north.

Simon slipped his index finger into the frag grenade collar, and for some reason, Adolfina's face came into view, along with her fangs.
