Chapter 48: Fear of Color
It's not very accurate to say that it was a fortification, but it was a camp.
Four square towers more than 100 meters high stand at the four corners of the camp, the towers are from the bottom to the top, and there are dense cold iron pipes of different sizes like hedgehogs everywhere, in addition, almost every ten minutes, a fighter plane breaks through the air and circles in the field to reconnoitre.
There are bomb craters everywhere, and even the air is filled with a faint smell of gunsmoke, making it feel like a battle could happen at any time.
Whenever the muffled sound of the plane sounded, there was a commotion in the distant jungle, like a gust of wind blowing. Even if he didn't see it, he could imagine that the countless mutant beasts in this forest were running in terror.
"There are more than 20 such forward bases in Hedong City, and here is the most recent one." Qian Dakui was used to seeing this kind of scene, and he was not surprised, he turned back to Luo Yuan and said, "Now let's go through the formalities first, and then rent some weapons!" ”
Luo Yuan came back to his senses: "Any weapon can be rented?" ”
"As long as you can move and have enough food stamps!" Yang Dawei smiled and made a gesture to count the money: "Rifles, sniper rifles, heavy machine guns, and grenades can all be rented, and they also know that if there is no such powerful weapon, they can only be sent to death when they go to the field." ”
A few people got out of the car, and Qian Dakui opened the back box, where some cold weapons were placed.
"But sometimes cold weapons are more useful, the guns are too loud, and it is easy to attract a large number of mutant beasts." Zhang Chao said lightly, then picked up a recurved folding crossbow, skillfully checked it, and picked up a military thorn and rubbed it on his trouser leg, the movement was very crisp and neat.
Yang Dawei picked a Nepalese scimitar. Qian Dakui took a dagger, stuck it in his waist, and then closed the trunk. Seeing Luo Yuan's strange face, he suddenly explained with some embarrassment: "Don't look at me like that, I'm mainly a machine gunner now, there are too many things, no matter how much physical strength I can't bear." ”
"No need to explain, I didn't laugh at you!" Luo Yuan said with a smile.
At this time, another car came over and stopped directly next to the Jinbei car. The car door opened, and five people came out, and as soon as they got out of the car, they looked this way, and Qian Dakui's faces quickly sank.
The two pairs looked at each other and looked away, obviously not wanting to clash in front of the barracks.
"Who are these?" After the group of people left, Luo Yuan asked.
Qian Dakui's face was gloomy and he didn't speak.
"I don't know Lu Dao, I only know that Lu Dao is from Hedong City, and he is not quite right with us, and there have been several conflicts before." Yang Dawei said with some embarrassment.
Luo Yuan felt that Yang Dawei was a little insincere, but after thinking about it, he didn't ask any more.
Under the inspection of several soldiers, several men entered the heavily guarded camp and entered a small building with even the masonry exposed. On the first floor is an unusually simple hall, and those few people from Hedong City are going through the formalities at a counter in front of them.
Seeing them coming, one of them glanced at this side defiantly and made a throat-slitting gesture, while the rest of them immediately laughed.
Qian Dakui's face turned red and white, and his teeth rattled. Just when Luo Yuan thought that a conflict was inevitable, he didn't expect him to take a deep breath after the most reluctance, and he couldn't help it!
The atmosphere was a little depressing, not only Qian Dakui, but also Zhang Chao and Yang Dawei all dared to be angry and did not dare to speak, their faces were as black as the bottom of the pot, in addition, Luo Yuan keenly found that there seemed to be a trace of fear hidden in the eyes of these three people.
There is definitely something strange in this, Luo Yuan looked at the five people carefully. One of them sensed something, and suddenly glanced back at Luo Yuan, a smile of unknown meaning appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Good perception is already extremely acute for ordinary people, and it seems that the person who makes the three of them jealous should be him.
But...... It's not quite like it, he looks too ordinary, without the slightest temperament of a strong man, he belongs to the kind of people who can't be found if they are lost in the crowd, even if they stand there, there is a feeling that people can't help but ignore.
And the leader is obviously not him, but looks like a marginal figure.
Wacky, so weird!
Luo Yuan frowned slightly, and looked pensive.
When the five of them left, Luo Yuan felt that Qian Dakui and the three of them breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, and the atmosphere relaxed slightly.
After paying a hundred catties of food stamps, Luo Yuan received a piece of paper stamped with the seal of the 7th Battalion of the 16th Regiment, and then came to the office next to an arms warehouse.
A middle-aged man dressed in a slightly fat figure sat loosely in the office, looking more like a businessman despite wearing a military uniform. Seeing Luo Yuan and a few people coming in, a smile appeared on his face: "What do you need?" ”
Yang Dawei was in charge of logistics and asked Luo Yuan what weapon he wanted. Luo Yuan waved his hand, it was enough to say that he had a knife, even if he gave him a gun, he couldn't hit it accurately.
Yang Dawei hesitated, glanced at Qian Dakui, and saw that Qian Dakui made a face to him, so he didn't ask any more, and turned to face the middle-aged officer and said: "Director Huang, just like you before, we want a Type 56 light machine gun, a Type 88 sniper rifle, and a Type 81 rifle with a grenade launcher, won't the price rise again?" ”
"It's still the old price, but it may rise in the near future, after all, the daily consumption of our military region is a big amount." The middle-aged officer didn't raise his eyelids, took out a calculator, and pressed it for a while: "What kind of bullets do you want for a deposit of 12,000 catties of food stamps?" ”
Yang Dawei pursed his lips in disbelief, but there was a way to think of it, even if the other party immediately raised the price, he could only grit his teeth and continue: "Twenty armor-piercing bullets, one thousand general-purpose bullets, five grenades, and eight grenades!" ”
The middle-aged officer quickly calculated: "A total of 16,850 catties of food stamps." ”
Yang Dawei took out a leather bag and quickly paid the bill, and the middle-aged officer's face suddenly showed a standard salesman's smile: "Do you want mortars?" ”
Yang Dawei was a little suspicious: "What model?" ”
"The Type 60 mortar is very well maintained, it is the same as new, and the power is also good!" The middle-aged officer said with a smile.
Yang Dawei discussed with a few people, shook his head and said, "Forget it, the movement is too big!" ”
"That's a shame." The middle-aged officer smiled.
Although Luo Yuan is not a military fan, he can also see that most of the weapons provided by the military are some obsolete goods, and many of them are not even used by the militia.
However, it is normal to think about it, and instead of continuing to be stored in strategic reserve warehouses, these weapons should be used as waste, which can not only greatly increase income, but also slightly reduce the pressure on the military in Hedong City.
Next, the three of them took the approval slips, received their weapons in the military warehouse, and left here directly.
After passing through the last checkpoint, the Jinbei car tossed and turned for five minutes on the potholed ground due to repeated artillery bombardment, and finally stopped in front of a jungle.
