CHAPTER XVI. Tucker Base 16

This heavily armed soldier attacked himself relentlessly, and even grabbed his own hair! Li Jie was furious!

As soon as the muscles of his body tightened, one hand pinched the soldier's wrist bone from above, and slammed it hard!

At the same time, the other elbow poked back!

Li Jie's strength is already beyond ordinary people at this moment!

The ability of the mobile phone has subtly changed his physical fitness, and he has long found that his strength, endurance, and recovery are more than a little stronger than before!

Li Jie, who broke out with all his strength at this moment, was beyond the soldier's expectations!

He only felt that the hand that grabbed Li Jie's hair seemed to be pinched by pliers! Under the huge grip force, the pain is unbearable!

As soon as he felt the pain, there was a sharp pain under his ribs, which was a severe pain that ordinary people couldn't bear, and he only felt that it was suddenly dark in front of him! Immediately afterward, a feeling of weightlessness was born!

Bang!

was grabbed by Li Jie's hand, thrown out violently, and smashed heavily on several soldiers 5 meters away!!

This well-trained professional soldier, who is nearly 1.8 meters tall and weighs at least 130 pounds, has no room for resistance, and was thrown out 5 meters by Li Jie!

This scene was beyond everyone's expectations.

"Don't move!! Otherwise, I would have shot!! The 7/8 soldiers nearby reacted instantly, as if they were facing a great enemy, and all the guns were aimed at Li Jie and the others!!

"Misunderstanding! It's all a misunderstanding! We are from the 1st Garrison Division and 1st Order, and I have my documents in my pocket! This is Major General Li Jie Lee! Misunderstand! Please put down the gun, misunderstanding!! Seeing that the situation was uncontrollable, Ma Xiaodong couldn't care about anything else, and shouted at these soldiers!

"We are Major General Li's guards, this is a misunderstanding!" Cao Siyuan also shouted loudly at the soldiers.

Several soldiers around hesitated a little when they heard this, one of them tilted his head to the person next to him, and the other soldier accepted the order, cautiously walked up to Ma Xiaodong with a gun, and took out his ID from his pocket.

The document was handed over to the soldier who gave the order, he took it and looked at it, no problem, then picked up his mobile phone, scanned the barcode on the document, and soon, Ma Xiaodong's identity was determined.

"This is my ID, do you want to check it?" Li Jie stood aside and shouted angrily at the leader.

"Smack!" A military salute, the soldier did not pick up the documents in Li Jie's hand, but hurriedly stood up and saluted a military salute!

Although Li Jie may not be in the same part as him, Li Jie's rank of major general is probably true, so it is only right to salute and apologize first!

"Report! No! This, Major General Li, please forgive me, we are also on a mission! The captain explained with some embarrassment and some uneasiness.

"...... forget it, you carry out your mission." Li Jie looked at the still chaotic scene around him, took a deep breath, forcibly held back the evil fire in his heart, waved his hand to signal that it was over, and then glared at the soldier who was helped up by his comrades, and turned to leave.

……

Just left the People's Square, which had been heavily surrounded, Li Jie walked on the road with a gloomy face, during which he just told Ma Xiaodong to ask him to ask someone to drive the car, and then he didn't say a word, Ma Xiaodong and Cao Siyuan in the back glanced at each other, probably understanding that Li Jie was angry.

However, in fact, Li Jie is indeed in a bad mood at the moment, and the reason is not because of the misunderstanding just now.

In what happened just now, Li Jie saw the anger in everyone's hearts.

Whether it was Li Shijian, who was making a lot of nonsense, or the ordinary people who attached to him, or even the army who came to maintain order, everyone's heart was full of anger.

Li Shijian's dissatisfaction lies in the fact that he feels the gap between his quality of life and social status before and after the apocalypse, coupled with everything he has suffered since the apocalypse, which makes him explode.

And the rest of the people who echoed him were the same, working 8 hours a day, basically manual labor, and the remuneration they received could only be exchanged for basic food and water.

All this, when they first came to Tucker City, they were grateful, and as time passed, this gratitude slowly faded and gradually disappeared, and what remained was dissatisfaction with life.

As for the soldiers, their actions cannot be described as decisive, however, the tension and ruthlessness contained in this decisiveness are what make Li Jie shudder.

At this time, Li Jie suddenly had the illusion that this seemingly orderly Tucker City was sitting on a volcanic crater!

The prospect of infection at any time, and the shortage of supplies in the desert, all make the city's survivors seem so vulnerable.

……

In April, the biggest problem facing the Tucker base, in addition to infection, is sandstorms.

Yes, sandstorms!

In the civilized period, people will draw water from the ground, even if these water sources are not suitable for drinking, but can add water to the windbreak and sand fixation forest belt, to ensure their growth, at the same time, under the leadership of the political axe, many enterprises are also trying their best to manage, green the Tak Desert, many reasons, make the Tucker Desert sand and dust not so unacceptable.

However, now, these human means of restraining the desert have disappeared, and the sharp weakening of human civilization activities around the world has led to climate change, which has further strengthened the power of sandstorms!

The consequence of all this is that every inch of the city is covered with a thin layer of sand every morning, and in some places it can even accumulate half a meter of sand.

On April 20th, when Li Jie came to the Chinese Academy of Sciences against a sandstorm, he received a notice from Qin Huanian: he was going to resurrect about 3 people, just two days later. The identities of these three people, one of them was the commander of the first military region of the military and the absolute feudal official, and the other was the son of this commander. The third person is a virology expert from the Bald Eagle Country!

The three of them were infected for various reasons, and now Li Jie needs to resurrect them.

Cooperating with the Chinese Academy of Sciences to treat infected patients is not a big deal. But Li Jie hesitated.

According to the previous agreement, his task is to resurrect 10 people every month, and the purpose of resurrecting these 10 people is mainly for the people of the 501 Institute to study their internal mechanism, and deduce as much as possible ways and means to make vaccines or treat infected people.

As for these 10 experimental subjects, the specific identity of Li Jie is unknown, but if there are some personal contacts, Li Jie said that it is not incomprehensible, anyway, it does not matter to Li Jie who is resurrected.

But now, this rule, which has only been in place for a month and a half, seems to be about to be broken.

Of the 10 places in April, 8 have been used up so far!

These 8 people are all the researchers in a laboratory under the 501 Institute!

In the process of researching germs, they inadvertently cultivated an infinitely weakened virus population, much to their delight! In this way, it means that it is very willing to weaken this bacterium countless times, but it still has the characteristics of the mother plant, once implanted in the human body, it is very likely to make the human immune system resistant to it, which means that a vaccine may be born!!

Unfortunately, in the laboratory observation, the infinitely weakened virus was accidentally leaked, and the so-called leak was only exposed to the air for a short period of 10 seconds, but no one thought that in just 30 seconds, it infected 8 members of the entire laboratory! It was so violent, rapid, and so contagious that it shocked all those in the know!

If the virus evolves like this, the consequences will be unimaginable!!

It is imperative that these people be resurrected and find out what happened in the lab! What experiments did they do to make a virus that would have been much less contagious in a dry environment so terrifying?

This is the news that Li Jie got, for this reason, he fought for a night in a row, and finally gathered the materials for the resurrection of 8 people!

And Li Jie resurrected these 8 people according to the agreement, and there are only 2 people left in the resurrection quota in April!

Now, he was given the order to prepare supplies and resurrect the three people who were about to arrive at the base.

They will take a special plane and arrive in the city of Tucker.

There was no discussion, no inquiry, but directly in the form of written orders and electronic commands in the mobile phone, which were simultaneously transmitted to his own hands.

What does this mean?

Li Jie looked at the big red chapter of the 1st Ministry of Defense of Huaguo at the end of the document, and his brows furrowed tightly.

Sitting on the sofa in his office, Li Jie tilted his head, and all kinds of thoughts in his mind surfaced one by one.

It is not simply a matter of resurrection, or non-resurrection.

If these 3 people are included, then the number of resurrected people this month becomes 11. But you know, it's only been a month and a half since I came to Tucker City!

Isn't the original 10-person agreement signed in vain?

If you can add one person today, then you can add another one tomorrow!

Moreover, there is no negotiable meaning!

Is this an oversight on the part of the military?

No, certainly not, so important to the point that something could they be negligent? Although Li Jie didn't know how various forces competed for these 10 resurrection places, he could imagine that this was definitely not a trivial matter.

So, either negligence, or they are deliberately testing their bottom line?

Why?

Are 10 people not satisfied and want to add more places? But then things will get completely out of control!

With this exception, there is a next time, and with a next time, there is a next time! With this obedience to the order, there will be more orders next time!

Even, as the number of resurrected people increases, more and more people will know about it, so countless important people in Tucker City may give orders or pass on requests to themselves through the military!

This is not acceptable!!

I drank cup after cup of tea water, and the time was from 9 o'clock to 12 o'clock in the morning, and it was time for lunch.

Li Jie raised his head abruptly and said to Ma Xiaodong, who was sitting on the other side and didn't dare to say anything for a long time: "Go and tell Director Qin Huanian that I have no objection to the new order I have received, and I don't plan to carry it out." At the same time, help me give me upward feedback. Li Jie said lightly.

"Huh? This...... Be! Ma Xiaodong was shocked when he heard this, but he didn't know what kind of order Li Jie had gotten.

Although it is not clear, you can directly refuse to carry out the above order, what does this mean, but Ma Xiaodong understands it very well! Looking at Li Jie, he hesitated for a long time, but he didn't know what to say.

"Report it truthfully!" Li Jie glanced at him, said lightly, turned around and left.

“... Be. ”

On this day, Li Jie did not eat at the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and did not plan to continue to work in the afternoon, but drove home directly.

……

Early the next morning, Li Jie's mobile phone rang "oh", Li Jie picked it up and looked at it, but it was a text message, the content of the text message was, let him go to the Tucker City Military Region, the 1st National Security Department directly under the Ministry of National 1 Defense to report!

"Hey!" Li Jie sneered! The efficiency is very fast!

Without any hesitation, at half past one in the afternoon, Li Jie arrived on time at the office building of the Ministry of National Defense of the People's Republic of China, which is located in the military administration area of Tucker City.

Looking at this inconspicuous five-story building, no one could have imagined that this was the highest power center of the Chinese military.

Li Jie has only been here once in the past month and a half, and it was when he was secretly awarded. At that time, only five people participated in his awarding ceremony......

Shaking his head and not thinking about these inconsequential things, Li Jie got on the elevator under the guidance of Ma Xiaodong, and the elevator stopped on the 3rd floor.

When I got off the elevator, I immediately saw a 30-year-old, heroic female soldier standing upright at the elevator entrance, and when she saw Li Jie, she immediately gave a beautiful military salute, and then said: "Major General Li Jie!" Hello! ”

Li Jie's eyes lit up, and he secretly praised it, then nodded and responded with a smile: "Hello! ”

"I'm afraid you're not familiar with here, Minister Sun arranged for me to wait for you here, please come with me!" Then, with a slight hand, he motioned to follow her.

Although the office building of the Ministry of National Defense is only 5 floors, it covers an area that is not small, and Li Jie walked around for a while before he arrived in an office under the leadership of Meng Cong.

In the office, there is no "XX office", but only a house number of 3015.

Meng Cong signaled: "Major General Li Jie, please come in!" ”

Li Jie nodded, and Ma Xiaodong and Cao Siyuan, who came with him, stood outside the door with Meng Cong, and did not have the right to enter together.

Li Jie coughed lightly, secretly calmed down, and opened the door and walked in.

To say Li Jie, he is very nervous at the moment. After all, the one who is about to face must be the military bigwigs, and he enlisted in the army and was directly awarded the rank of major general, and it has only been a little more than a month to this day.

This time, he directly refused the order, although it was in accordance with the content of the agreement, and it was justified, but after all, he refused the military order, and he was still a little apprehensive in his heart, and he didn't know what he was going to face.

Entering the door and looking at the scene in front of him, Li Jie was slightly stunned, and a burst of dissatisfaction suddenly rose in his heart!

It was an empty room, the walls were not even whitewashed, they were still the color of concrete, and although the sunlight was pouring in through the windows, the blue-gray cement color still made the room feel oppressive.

And at the innermost side of the room, there is a row of tables, and three military leaders in military uniforms are impressively present.

Six guards were scattered around the room!

A chair was empty, and it was left alone opposite the three military leaders!

What is this for!?

Interrogators?

Dismounted!?

PS: I was a little uncomfortable yesterday and didn't have the energy to write, sorry.
