Chapter 53: How to Walk
"But we didn't get any news that the target location was here!"
Su Tong objected.
"yes, I've never heard anything like that. All we were given was the task of clearing and probing the desert for the plague variants. ”
Li Xiang also felt that something was wrong at this time.
"In other words, they knew the news, but they didn't tell us, so what was it for?"
Xu Yufeng scratched his head, very puzzled.
"What are the Elite Squad going to do again?"
Xu Yutang opened his mouth rarely, the danger of this mission theory should be said to be extremely high, if it wasn't for Zhou Yang, they wouldn't even be able to go deep here.
Even if you are lucky enough to go deeper, you will not be able to get out alive.
"Ahhh
Su Tong's mind was about to explode, and he couldn't guess the specific thoughts of the Lord of Yang City.
In this mission, they did not see the elite team, nor did they get the specific location of the mission target, and everything seemed to be full of mysteries.
"Let's assume this."
Speculate boldly and verify carefully. Li Xiang suddenly had a flash of inspiration at this time, and thought of a possibility, a possibility with the highest probability.
"How to assume?"
Su Tong raised his head and asked suspiciously.
"First of all, let's say that the purpose of the lord sending us ordinary squads is to attract the attention of the plague variants in the desert."
Li Xiang said his guess, and then looked at everyone.
"At this time, the elite team should set off from another path and go directly to the target location of this mission."
Xu Yutang raised his head and began to make bold assumptions.
"But there's a catch. If the lord just wants us to be bait, he can just say it and execute the bait plan in a better way. ”
Su Tong shook his head, feeling that Li Xiang and Xu Yutang's assumptions had a lot of loopholes. The purpose alone cannot be explained.
"Then to think about it differently, if the lord doesn't want us to be bait, then it means that the news sent back by Captain Zhang and the others has not reached the lord's hands. Assuming that the lord didn't know, someone was carrying him behind his back. ”
Li Xiang boldly put forward another speculation.
"But it doesn't work either, the people in the lord's mansion are all carefully selected by the lord. The person in charge of intelligence is the lord's henchman, so it shouldn't be possible to betray the lord, right? ”
Su Tong still shook her head, she couldn't imagine at all that there was a problem inside the Lord's Mansion.
In this world, once the highest authority was the Alliance, which was made up of several empires, and the empire was made up of lords large and small, all of whom revered the emperor.
Therefore, it has evolved into a modern world that is obviously in Zhou Yang's view, but what continues is the title of lord emperor and corps.
However, after Zhou Yang read a lot of books, he also found that there is no so-called prince and boy in this world, and the difference is only based on the name of the city.
Some lords have built a city under their command into a big city, and their strength has also increased, but Yang City is actually just a small city in the entire empire.
But this world is very big!
"People are all changing, and the interior of the lord's mansion may have been infiltrated, if the lord doesn't know about this matter, and everything is done according to the emergency operation, the orders we received will be able to be explained."
Xu Yutang asserted.
The reason he always didn't like to talk was because he didn't like to talk nonsense, but now that the stakes are high, he doesn't mind saying what he thinks.
"Both hypotheses are possible, bold assumptions, careful verification, of course, the facts may be different from what we guessed, and there may be a third answer that is not accurate."
Li Xiang closed the map and gave up conjecture.
While they continue to speculate, the more likely they are to get closer to the truth as the evidence mounts.
But at the same time, they may also guess wrong, adding to some annoyance. Li Xiang deeply understands that sometimes it is because of excessive thinking that things will change unpredictably.
Thinking too much is not necessarily a good thing, but it can be a bad thing.
"I'd rather the truth be the second, I still remember what the lord did when he took in refugees, and I don't want to destroy the lord in my impression."
Su Tong shook her head, after fleeing to Yangcheng, it was the relief of the lord that gave her a glimmer of life.
So for the lord, for Yangcheng, Su Tong has his own insistence. But if they are really given up by the lord and used as bait, then all the previous impressions will collapse in an instant.
"No one wants it to be the first one, let's wait for Captain Zhang to wake up, and then discuss the next plan. Now, it's still early, but everyone can rest. ”
Li Xiang looked at the time and said to everyone.
The Captain Zhang in his mouth is Zhang Ya, but compared with Zhang Ya, not only is there a gap in ability, but also the number of people in the team is completely incomparable.
Zhang Ya's team has three cars and more than a dozen people, while his team only has one pickup truck and only a few people. At this time, Li Xiang thought of the other people in the seventh squad who did not come back, and a trace of worry flashed in his heart.
Those people should have come back a long time ago, but there has been no news, and the pickup truck that drove out has never returned, and that little fuel can't support much at all.
……
Zhou Yang woke up, the time had come to night, everyone fell asleep in different positions in the tent, and he struggled to sit up and looked out of the door.
There seemed to be someone there, and he could feel a breath of life there.
But he couldn't even sit up, let alone get out of the tent to see who the people outside the tent were.
After a while, the people outside the tent returned to the tent.
Through the not-so-bright light, Zhou Yang successfully saw that the person who walked into the room was none other than the captain of the seventh squad.
"You're awake."
Walking into the house, Li Xiang, who found Zhou Yang awake, said softly in a small voice.
"Hmm."
Zhou Yang nodded and replied in the same low voice.
Everyone in the tent was sleeping soundly at this time, and neither he nor Li Xiang wanted to make too much noise and disturb everyone's rest.
"This tent was borrowed from the reconnaissance team."
Seeing that Zhou Yang had been staring at the tent, Li Xiang took a puff of cigarette, and then replied softly.
"What's on your mind?"
It was the first time to see Zhou Yang, who saw Li Xiang smoking, and asked subconsciously. He remembered that Li Xiang was not an old smoker, and he rarely smoked in front of everyone.
"I don't have anything to worry about, it's just a headache, and the next road is not very easy to walk."
Talking to Zhou Yang, Li Xiang didn't hide anything, he was reluctant to make his concerns public, but Zhou Yang might be able to give him some suggestions and ideas.
