Old Testament Chapter 185. There are no mild winters
The dance music was gone, and then there was a mess, and the guards of the various servants helped up the drunk-looking chief, and many of them still had beautiful maids in their arms, but the squinting of the semen in the gap did not mean that they were really unconscious.
As soon as he walked out of the sunny day, the drunken man who had just returned to his disheveled clothes immediately sobered up, took the military uniform and put it on, stepped through the slimy mud with his high military boots, and headed towards Xicheng. "Would you like to meet your old friend?" The Thousand Faces said.
"The Iron Soldiers are loyal to the knights, and it is taboo to contact the commander of the troops, I think you are more taboo than I am on this point." Simon replied, the twelve steel soldiers are the last guarantee of the knights, with Simon's current authority, at least he can know the knight's daily routine and general location, and it is really necessary to have a subordinate to launch an armed seizure of power, and the benefits of having a personal soldier inside line are self-evident.
"The Black Flag Armored Corps belongs directly to the knights, no one will take this matter to heart, you just go back before the next shift." The Man with a Thousand Faces wore a military hat crookedly, squeezed his eyebrows, and said, "You yourself admit to being a pimp, why do you care so much, let alone that you like to be a crusader." โ
The faint blood pressure emanated from the body of the Thousand Faces, which was naturally harmless for ordinary people, and it was definitely the most serious deterrent to Simon who had the blood of the mutant, and it was all at this point, Simon had no way to refuse, nodded helplessly, and said, "I think it's time to meet." โ
The West City of Mandsville is an underground grain store in the city, and there are many winter reserves needed to maintain the normal operation of a city with a population of tens of thousands, not to mention the harsh climate and poor soil of the post-war federal wasteland, which is not suitable for agricultural development. Mandesville's food supply was similar to that of other neutral city-states. The first is to set aside a relatively flat and fertile land outside the city, and send troops to protect agricultural workers to plant and ensure a minimum grain output. The second is to purchase materials from the Montenegro Free Zone.
The direct effect of latitude is the average annual temperature, the effects of nuclear winter have not yet passed, the winter in the Great Lakes is as low as minus thirty or forty degrees, the snow is particularly deep, it is impossible to sow a round of winter wheat, thanks to the proximity of the Great Lakes industrial area to the Great Lakes to catch fish in the summer, and the pre-war stockpiles of dried meat and honey are also an important source. The refuge's soilless gardens and man-made food production lines are all part of that weak lifeline.
The three continents of Mississippi, Alabama and Georgia in the old Union are the main parts of the Montenegro Free Zone, and although the winter is still very cold, fishermen living near Half Moon Bay also need to break the sea ice when they go to sea in winter, but it is far less difficult to move than in the north. The day of the nuclear explosion destroyed almost all of the road systems in the territory of the old Union. Road, Rail, Airport...... Massive tunnel collapses have disrupted inter-regional traffic for decades.
The first generation of survivors who came out of the vault had to deal with hordes of mutated flora and fauna, explore ruined cities, and clear basic roads as pioneers tried to restore old civilizations. After a whole generation of efforts, negotiations, wars, and repairs, four years ago, it ended in Steel City and started in Gordon City, in the free zone of Montenegro, with a total length of 61
The three-mile new Interstate 77 was successfully completed, but it was enough for large-scale commercial activity between the two sides. Ammunition, rifles, cannons, trucks, and even machinery from the Great Lakes Industrial Zone were continuously transported to the Montenegrin Free Zone by two-headed cattle caravans in exchange for rice, plums, sugar cane, Montenegrin meat, and Half Moon Bay fish produced in Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, and Florida in the old Union states. The two sides even jointly invited mercenaries to control the bandits along the road by force. The famous Longfor International is the protection of Highway 77, and Simon's Wyatt Company, which was previously working in Montenegro, is one of many small companies that have partnered with Longfor.
Since Mandsville did not join the Great Lakes Industrial Zone, it did not get the preferential grain quota of the member cities, and the winter reserves either competed for the grain coupons sold by the Steel City, and organized its own fleet transportation, even the meat jerky and carp scraps with the minimum minimum shelf life that the Steel City wanted to eliminate were valuable grains that other cities had squeezed their heads. Either buy from the past business travelers at a high price, every late autumn, it is the peak of the entire wasteland world business travel, as long as it is a large amount of materials, Mandsville is never picky eater, whether he is a large lake privateer without a fishing and hunting license, or the Black Mountain Rust Demon Gang, the rebels on the east coast of the empire, and the cannibal from the western desert. Fortunately, the western city of Mandsville is close to the Okeo River, and where there is water, there is life, and where there is life, there is food. Coupled with the combination of various means, it is barely possible to avoid famine.
Perhaps Mandsville had a vision of one kind or another, and when the Crusaders came, everything came to naught.
The frozen creek outside the West City was completely covered by the wind and snow, and it was completely different from the snowfield, and the Iron Pro-Soldier was not allowed to wear a power exoskeleton, but the sensible Crusader veteran could recognize at a glance the M5 rifle behind Simon's shoulder, and the six black polymer magazines hanging from his chest. In this way, no one will shout for a fist fight without opening their eyes.
The treatment of the Black Flag armored soldiers was naturally very different from that of the big-headed soldiers, and ordinary crusaders could only be stationed in the limited area demarcated by their subordinates, huddled in collapsed houses, looking for all furniture, burning wood for warmth. However, the Black Flag soldiers can drive the servants to cut wood outside the city, wrap up windproof tents, and live better than people with heavy vehicles, and stop in semi-underground trenches and cover them with camouflage tarpaulin. From time to time, there were black flag soldiers hiding in twos and threes, using gasoline cans as bonfires.
Simon glanced at the varnish painted on the newly built wooden house, and it was rare to exude a smell of logs, the Black Flag armored soldiers were directly under the control of the Gunfire Knights, and only had a deputy position, and the Thousand Faces were one of the three deputy positions, in charge of logistics and maintenance, so it was only natural that the Thousand Faces set up their headquarters in the underground grain depot.
Needless to say, the quality of the Black Flag soldiers is not to mention, it is an extremely remarkable thing to be able to achieve close infantry coordination in this era, although there are more than forty tanks in the parking lot here, including more than half of the old M60 tanks, and the concentrated engine tanks are specially parked in the city hall fortress building, those three are really the heart of the gunfire knights, and no one else can touch them. Although they were in a state of rest at this time, there were still patrols wearing red armbands, and the crews, maintenance personnel, and co-infantrymen of their respective vehicles were given their own winter houses, which only needed to be ordered by the knights to be quickly and immediately removed.
The sentry guard looked at it several times
Simon recognized that this was Simon, who had just been promoted to the Iron Soldier, and hurriedly turned sideways and saluted. "Look, the identity I picked for you is still somewhat useful." The One with a Thousand Faces nodded gracefully to the passing soldiers.
"May I ask?" Ever since he was reprimanded by the Thousand Faces at his private shelter in Mandsville, Simon has said nothing more than his daily conversation. He found that there were so many black flag soldiers, but not one of them was left alone, and if they were out of the camp, at least three of them were loaded with guns, as if they were not their brothers but enemies.
"Say." The Man with a Thousand Faces replied, and a chariot drove on, and the outside of the car was densely covered with a layer of barbed wire, and the net was filled with sandbags.
"Why do you want me to dispose of the knight instead?" Simon could see that Hydra of the Thousand Faces had the ability to change his appearance and even his voice, quietly disguised himself as the captain of the guard, Essens, and it was easy to assassinate the gun knight in his sleep and then change his face and escape, where did Simon come from this ability to single-handedly pick up an entire army? Not to mention the army, just the three personal soldiers of the knight are enough to choke.
"Look, your friends." The Man of Thousand Faces lifted his chin and nodded to the side, and Simon followed his gaze to see that a burly Jonathan was helping Ramirez carry the shell box, while Marco pouted and dug into the trench to melt the mud. So he saw Simon through his crotch.
The three of them looked at each other, and Ramirez stopped Marco, who was about to shout, and raised his hand in motion. What to do then, it looks like they were servants of a tank crew. "The Gun-Knights will personally inspect the crew of each tank, so it's right for you to abandon the tank at that point, otherwise the Chopper will be happy to sew an apron with four more arms." The Thousand Faces are not in a hurry to answer questions.
"A former T3 mercenary from Longhu, a former Imperial Legion soldier, since he ran to Steel City, I guess it should be a member of the Raven Army who defected from the formation, and an old fritter who has been in the backstreets for decades, and the expedition team you recruited is very mixed." The Thousand Faces said.
"It's clear that there are Hydra reserve members who can form a team together, and you have to put a lot of effort into subduing this group of mortals, you are really ...... An atypical hydra. Without waiting for Simon to reply, the One with a Thousand Faces said to himself: "Forget it, that's your private matter, I'm not interested in knowing." โ
The entrance to the granary was in ruins, and Simon had only been to Westtown once before Mandsville was occupied, and it was vaguely a long apartment building that was home to the wealthy class of Mandsville. The Black Flag soldiers used a bulldozer modified from the tank chassis to dig the way, and several infantry combat vehicles were parked at the entrance, and the circular defensive position with light and heavy firepower was an extremely dangerous thing to attack here.
The guards opened the iron door, and a cold air rushed in, and the gradually sloping tunnel exposed the pipes and steam pipes, and the man with a thousand faces lit a cigarette. "Smoke one?" He handed over the cigarette case, Simon took one, the Zhibao alloy steel lighter had long since disappeared in the flames, Simon used three loaves of bread, from the hands of an illiterate crusader in exchange for an ordinary Zhibao kerosene lighter, and took his own saber and engraved "Sยท Hโใ
"Thank you." Simon replied.
"Hydrari has no thanks." The cigarette butts of the two were glowing red.
