In the center of the venue, a black-faced general with the rank of lieutenant general was playing with the white jade handle in his hand. Hearing the lieutenant colonel's report, the lieutenant general commanded in a low voice: "Immediately dispatch the reconnaissance company to find the location of the main force of the Huangquan mercenary group, and if there is an accident, report it immediately." ”

The general did not look very old, and the wars and disasters had caused the post-apocalyptic generations to mature prematurely. From time to time, the general's body exudes a strong killing aura, which is a temperament that can only be found after a long battle. The bright eyes under the black face are as sharp as a falcon, and every time the eyes scan everyone, they can make people feel the illusion of seeping.

This black-faced general is none other than Zhao Jupeng, who is known as the contemporary Wu Mu, and is also the brother of Zhao Junhou, the commander-in-chief of the Northern Army Group.

If you want to talk about the Demon Spine Zhao family, you can trace a long history.

Long before the end of the world, the Demon Spine Zhao family was the wang clan of Province Z. The Zhao family, during the Red Age, produced more than 20 generals and more than 10 provincial and ministerial-level senior officials, including many central officials who were in charge of the world. This century-old clan was entrenched in Z Province before the end of the world, and it was already a deep-rooted behemoth in the local area. The reputation of the Zhao gate valve in Province Z, even the central government at that time could not intervene in Province Z.

After the end of the world, because Province Z is located in the south-central part of the country, the terrain is mountainous and watery, and the early zombies could not form a large corpse tide in Province Z, which also gave the people of Province Z the opportunity to eliminate zombies and establish defenses. In a series of tragic wars against zombies, the rich and soldier Zhao family quickly stood out from the chaos of the division of the heroes!

By the time the generation of Zhao Junhou and Zhao Jupeng was in charge, the Demon Spine Zhao family was already one of the five major lords of the Southern Alliance who controlled the territory of the Central Command.

But in the last days, unlike any other time before, the greater the power, the greater the responsibility! The 400,000 Zhao family army held the thousand-mile defense line in the north of the alliance, and their fame went immediately, and their fame was left on the battlefield through the ages.

Illustrious background, profound heritage, thunderous military management methods, and brave combat ability combined with the responsibility of the Gaomen clan have cast Zhao Jupeng's iron-blooded and resolute character.

The 13th Special Warfare Division has been in the army for eight years, and Zhao Jupeng started as a lieutenant and achieved the position of lieutenant general and division commander in eight years.

Although there are some family-style supports, in the Northland, a land of blood-stained black landscapes, personal ability always comes first, and wealthy families are no exception.

Division Commander Zhao Jupeng spoke, and the lieutenant colonel intelligence officer immediately issued an order, and the reconnaissance company was ordered to be dispatched, braving the night rain, to move to Luohammer Mountain in the east to find the Huangquan mercenary group.

"The Huangquan Mercenary Regiment has not overdue, what should be done according to the Northern Military Law?" Zhao Jupeng asked.

An officer with the rank of major stood up from the last seat of the meeting hall and said loudly: "Report to the general, if the military plane is not delayed if the time is overdue, depending on the seriousness of the situation, the general should be deprived of the command and escorted to the military headquarters for disposal, and this order treats the mercenary regiment under the combat agreement equally." ”

The previously solemn atmosphere in the venue was condensed with the Major's briefing, and it was very breathless. I asked Zhao Jupeng how strict he was in governing the army, and it was to the point of being harsh, this time it seems that the Huangquan mercenary group is bad!

At this time, a thin middle-aged man in a dark red combat uniform sitting next to Zhao Jupeng spoke out of place: "Brother Jupeng, if you say something not very nice, don't blame the old brother for splashing you with cold water." You can't do that!"

This thin middle-aged man has a sallow complexion, seems to be seriously ill, and his speech is weak, and his voice seems to be far and near, which makes people sound uncomfortable.

The middle-aged man talked to himself, and he didn't care about the nearly half of the Northern Army generals in black uniforms in the venue, and he wanted to teach Zhao Jupeng a lesson!

However, the generals and colonels of the Northern Army present were all very calm, and several officers at the level of major generals close to the front seat also sat upright and listened attentively, as if what the middle-aged man wanted to say must be some kind of golden and jade good words.

Zhao Jupeng looked good, and cautiously clenched his fists to the middle-aged man sitting beside him and asked: "Mr. Zou, I don't know if there is any advice, please speak up, Pengju orders are forbidden, what's wrong?" This time, my brother has specially explained that everything should be based on Mr. Zou's opinion. ”

This Mr. Zou, who is not good-looking and seems to have a sick appearance, is none other than the head of the Agni Flame Mercenary Group, Zou Lieyang, known as Agni King Kong.

When Zou Lieyang heard the compliment, his expression moved slightly, and he said softly: "The military marquis is to promote me, and I dare not be it." But this time, I want to help Luo Huangquan ask for a favor. Although the generals and commanders are in the three armies abroad, Luo Huangquan should be held accountable for delaying the military plane. But I know Luo Huangquan very well, not only can he fight well but also be very responsible, the Huangquan mercenary group is also a well-known righteous teacher in the mercenary world, if you humiliate Luo Huangquan like this, I am afraid that the mercenary world will not help you Zhao Jupeng in the future. ”

When Zhao Jupeng heard this, his mouth suddenly opened, and all the military academies in the audience nodded in agreement. But Zhao Jupeng still asked: "But Mr. Zou, the big war is imminent, and the Huangquan mercenary group can't be contacted, what should I do?" Zhao has always been strict in governing the army, and it is inconvenient to break military discipline for this. ”

"Hehe, since that's the case, the account of the Huangquan Mercenary Group should be counted on Zou's head." Zou Lieyang shook his head and said with a wry smile.

Then Mr. Zou turned his head to an officer of the Flame Mercenary Regiment with a long beard and a red face sitting in the fifth seat behind him and said, "Yan Huang, you lead your two thousand sons and immediately rush to Luohammer Mountain to set up a defensive line. The battle plan on the eastern flank of Luohammer Mountain, the military department has a tactical record, and acts in accordance with the record. By the way, the whole mission should end with the Huangquan Mercenary Group taking over the defense. ”

The officer named Yan Huang lowered his voice to accept the order, but also quietly asked: "Big brother, what if the Huangquan mercenary group doesn't come?" ”

"If the Huangquan Mercenary Regiment doesn't come, you will defend until the Battle of Falling Hammer Town is over!" Zou Lieyang commanded.

Yan Huang took the order and left, and after a while, the locomotive roared outside the door, the people shouted orders, and the sound of the troops was pulling.

"Mr. Zou, I'm afraid it's not okay for you to do this?" Zhao Jupeng protested slightly.

"It's okay, the two thousand people taken away are a new army formed and trained by the Agni Mercenary Regiment in Demon Spine City, and they have not reported to the military department, and they are not subject to the agreement on this mission." Zou Lieyang's eyelids replied.

Zhao Jupeng immediately extinguished his entangled thoughts when he heard this, Jiang is still old and spicy, and Mr. Zou is really a famous Song Gongming on the rivers and lakes.

As the battlefield was cleaned up, night rain began to fall in the sky.

The Huangquan Mercenary Regiment gave the first order, and all battalions and teams lit up the illuminations one after another. Equipped with night searchlight sticks provided by the military, the troops still could not move fast.

The wilderness hills are densely forested, and the mountain trees that have not been cut down for decades have grown to a considerable extent, and among the dense forests, I don't know how many bloodthirsty creatures are lurking, grinding their teeth and waiting for dinner.

Although the road was fluorescent with a searchlight stick, the mountain soil wet from the night rain was muddy, and every few steps I took, the boots were covered in mud.

It's hard to walk, it's too hard to walk.

It is not uncommon to see people slipping to the ground, and even some people accidentally fall off the cliffs, and the screams echo through the valley.

Wang Qiang watched as the searchlight stick as bright as fireflies shone on the mountain road, and a long dragon winded and circled until it was nowhere in the distance.

It can't go on like this, Wang Qiang thought.

"Fei Fei, I remember you brought a long rope and used it." Wang Qiang said to Zhang Feifei.

When Zhang Feifei heard this, she took out a nylon rope from her bag, which was originally used to make tripping ropes in the wild.

Wang Qiang took the nylon rope and tied it around Fei Fei's waist, then asked Zhang Xiaomei and Xiaosan to tie it up, and then passed it to Chen Dabeard and the remaining four teammates. In the end, Wang Qiang tied himself up, and nine people led the rope and began to climb forward on the muddy slope with a deep foot and a shallow foot.

Occasionally, someone in the team couldn't see the road under their feet clearly, and they fell off the cliff with one step, Wang Qiang thought about it for a long time, and decided to tie everyone together with a rope, if something happened, it would be good to have a response.

Seeing this, the Yunfei team traveling beside them also did the same, and they all knotted each other in order to coexist.

Wang Qiang raised his head and walked in front, and suddenly, Zhang Xiaomei, who was behind him, stepped into the air, stood unsteadily, and rolled off the cliff! Zhang Xiaosan, who was behind Zhang Xiaomei, was also floating under his feet and was brought down by gravity and rolled down against the cliff. Fortunately, Chen Dabeard and Wang Qiang reacted very quickly, reaching out to pull the rope around their waists, and the others reacted and pulled the two back from the cliff with all their strength.

Zhang Xiaomei climbed up the mountain again, the bags on her back and shoulders had fallen down the mountain, and the guns in her hands were also lost. After a while of persuasion, everyone restarted the road and walked the mountain road.

At this time, Zhang Feifei cried behind Wang Qiang.

"What's wrong, Fifi?" Wang Qiang asked.

"It's all my fault, wouldn't it be nice if I didn't take on the ghost mission? I don't know when it's going to end up like this. Fei Fei cried reproachfully.

When Wang Qiang heard this, he persuaded him: "It's not your fault, who would know this?" Since bypassing the national highway, there has only been one way to climb the mountain, and the zombie tide has also appeared inexplicably, as well as this damn night rain. But it's gone quickly, hey, look at the searchlight ahead, the team is already on the straight! ”

After climbing the most difficult mountain road, the team finally set foot on the boundary of Falling Hammer Mountain. Luo Huangquan, who was at the forefront of the team, looked at the mechanical watch in his hand and shook his head a little uncomfortably, the team was already six hours late from the time required by the military combat meeting!

Suddenly, there was a slight sound on the nearby left and right slopes! Luo Huangquan's ears were sharp, and he slammed the scythe of death on the side of the hill, and roared fiercely in his mouth: "Enemy attack!" ”

Gunshots thundered and a scuffle broke out on the hillside.

Wang Qiang saw the flickering barrage of bullets in front of him, hurriedly untied the rope, and ordered behind him: "Find a place to hide, I don't know what the situation is, I actually encountered an ambush here!" If not, everyone runs for their lives along the same route. ”

The firefight came and went quickly. There was news from the front, and it turned out that it was a friendly army that came to meet under the Falling Hammer Mountain.

Wang Qiang learned from the sniper camp that the force that helped the Huangquan mercenary group to hold the defensive line was the Agni mercenary group that was supposed to cooperate with the 13th Division to attack Falling Hammer Town.

Wang Qiang himself didn't know about the Agni Mercenary Group, but seeing that many people around him, including Zhang Feifei and Chen Dabeard, showed a look of admiration, Wang Qiang guessed that this Agni Mercenary Group should be very strong.

The Huangquan mercenary group reached the defense line and began to arrange the mission non-stop. In accordance with the pre-set setting, the 24 strategic fulcrums were occupied in an orderly manner. Wang Qiang's Feifei squad also went to the strategic fulcrum codenamed E according to the prior arrangement, accompanied by the Yuntian squad and 30 soldiers of the C Company of the sniper battalion, and the rest of the Metal Slug Team and the C Company were assigned to Point F, which was 100 meters away from the E point.

Finally arrived at the destination, completed the topographic survey, and everyone went their own way, starting to set up tents, digging earthen stoves, and boiling water with the help of solid fuel.

The soldier surnamed Lu, the leader of the sniper battalion team, took the initiative to take over the duty task, and the Feifei team had a chance to take a good rest.
