Chapter VII Night Grain Storage
At this point, we have to go to this mission, and we have to go if we don't go.
Because we have a weakness, once we are restrained, we cannot be free from coercion.
"Don't worry, you will be well prepared for the ammunition, and you must be prepared for a tough battle." Seeing our acquiescence, General Pi continued, confident.
"When to go?" General Pi pressed forward step by step.
Zhu Hong took a deep breath, "Early tomorrow morning." ”
"Okay, let's prepare today, in addition to ammunition, vehicles, what else is needed, just mention. The task must be successfully completed, and if the grain depot is not seized, there will be big problems in the Chengdu base. General Pi accentuated his tone again.
"General Pi, relying on the grain reserves in the grain depot is not a long-term solution, and this winter is like this. At the beginning of spring, should we consider breaking the ground and returning the land to the base to engage in agricultural production? I asked.
General Pi nodded, "If you think about it for a long time, you must grow food within the walls, and I will leave this matter to the people with weak combat effectiveness." ”
After a pause, he slowly explained, "I know that you will feel uncomfortable when you are assigned a dangerous task such as seizing the grain depot. Please think about it carefully, those people with poor combat effectiveness are sent to death to reduce the labor force of the base, and the hundred soldiers under my command are responsible for the safety of the entire base, and there is no way to transfer them all. At the moment, it seems that the best place to storm the depot is your strong team, and there are enough of you. Hope you understand! You must know that your merits are imprinted on my heart! ”
"In addition, I am very sorry for the fact that you moved out of the institute building, at that time, in order to calm the hearts of all the people, I had to reluctantly cut your love and let you live in a peripheral building with poor conditions, but now that the water and electricity are all connected, everyone's mood is also peaceful, especially thank you for taking the initiative to move out of the building at that time, to be honest, if you insist on not moving, I will not force you to move out."
We nodded speechlessly, General Pi was able to change his simple and clear communication style, and said so many words to us, which can be regarded as a kind of reassurance, although this reassurance has no effect on us.
Leaving the building, we returned to Lily Park and saw our loved family and friends busy taking care of the fat and strong livestock, children running and playing on the dirt of the park, some elderly people with long scissors repairing bushes and weeds, and laughter everywhere.
They have cared for this place as their future home, renovated it, and moved many times, which made them extremely eager to settle down, and now the four towering concrete walls like buildings have finally put them at ease.
And what does it matter if we, as protectors, can continue to live happily in this safe environment?
Instead of going home, we sat around a large gazebo in the park and chatted.
"It's always been on our own, isn't it? It's like going to get food for your family, it's nothing. "Thunderstorm was indifferent to the task he was forced to accept.
"The truth is this, it's just that doing it actively and passively doing it is very different in my heart." Zhang Xiaomei smiled, he was a proud person, and General Pi's combination of soft and hard made him angry.
"Don't be angry, brother." Luo Han sat next to Zhang Xiaomei, "I think it's a kind of luck to kidnap us in the name of love, let's just accept it." You must know how many lonely people are there in these last days who have no concerns? The person who can make them endure the threat no longer exists, and although they are chic, they are lonely. ”
"Big Bear, after you got married, you became a literary young man? I'm really impressed. Zhang Xiaomei was soothed by Luohan's words, and couldn't help smiling.
Luo Han scratched his chin proudly, "The Sprinkle family has both ability and political integrity~"
Zhu Hong remained silent, squinting at the scenery in the distance, not knowing what she was thinking.
"Lao Zhu, can't you still get that energy?" Thunderstorm touched Zhu Hong with his elbow, "The tough guy was coerced, and he was sulking in his heart, right?" ”
Zhu Hong shook her head slightly, looked at us and said, "Do you think the Chengdu base will become our future home?" ”
This question suddenly quieted everyone down, after returning to Chengdu, has been noisy and busy, everyone did not think about anything else, although moving out of the research institute building feels very nesty, but not to be angry and want to change places, the ship is difficult to turn around, our group of people is like a snowball, rolling bigger and bigger, plus the spring manmei town and the seven star townspeople, almost to reach thousands of people, how can it be said that you can move? So when we suffer some grievances, we just digest them ourselves.
And this passive acceptance of the task, on the surface, was coerced to accept, after thinking about it, General Pi is right, the institute is not obliged to support everyone all the time, if we rely on our own food, the only way out at present is really to go to the grain depot to replenish.
Zhu Hong shook his head after listening to us, "I'm not gambling on the moment, I think about these truths very openly, but I like to plan ahead and think about problems in the long term." For now, the Chengdu base is still the most suitable for us to settle down, because it is safe enough! In this regard, no other place can compare. ”
"I'm just reminding you to always be mentally prepared, the last days are chaotic, there is no eternal safe, and I don't want the day when things change, you will fall into depression because of the destruction of your beautiful home. Remember, we're always on the road. ”
Zhu Hong's words are like a wake-up call, let us re-examine everything in front of us, yes, everyone loves and relies too much on this new home, it is easy to move, and psychological frustration is fatal.
"I understand, after everyone goes back, the family is subtly prepared for it." I sighed and nodded, that's what Zhu Hong meant.
He looked at the joyful people, and feared that one day the joy would be gone, and people's hearts would be seriously broken.
The opponent of the national grain depot is strong, we have almost all the partners with combat effectiveness on this trip, General Pi has prepared military off-road vehicles for us, and there are sufficient weapons, he has invested a lot of money this time, in addition to sniper rifles, light and heavy machine guns, and bazookas, his instructions are that the problems that can be solved quickly should not be delayed, to prevent unnecessary personnel loss.
We naturally won't use heavy weapons, so these weapons with the greatest lethality are concentrated in the hands of Zhang Xiaomei, Zhu Hong and Thunderstorm.
According to the guidance of the map, our group set off towards the grain depot early the next morning.
In the afternoon of the same day, we arrived at the location of the granary, looking at the tall and stout granaries from a distance, we were both excited and apprehensive, this is a treasure land, entrenched in it, will not be a good stubble.
The location of this national grain reserve is very remote, after passing a small village there is a direct road in the direction of the mountains, only five kilometers to the end, the grain depot is built on the mountain, directly opposite the road is a thick and tall wall, the atmosphere is as strict as a military secret base.
We stopped the convoy from a distance, observed the situation of the grain depot with binoculars, and found that on the wall of the grain depot, there was a machine gun, and there was a figure shaking on the wall.
This form is very unfavorable to us, they have a wall as a cover, and we are sent forward like this, purely as a live target, although the windshield of the military off-road has a bulletproof function, but if we can't hurt the other side in the slightest, what's the point of killing them like this?
After some discussion, it was decided to conceal the convoy, which required a long distance back, and then waited.
Wait until it gets dark.
The group of people who came last time were beaten up by the other party, and when they came back alive, they didn't know what they were doing, the strength of the other party, the number of people, and the origin, they couldn't say anything, and the only thing they could say was how many people they died.
It is impossible for us to come forward and fight hard, the rocket launcher is launched, and the wall is completely destroyed, which is not what we want, because the reserves in this grain depot are abundant, and we can only transport back a small part, and destroying the periphery of the grain depot is tantamount to killing chickens and taking eggs.
Our purpose is very simple, to protect the grain depot, destroy the enemy, and make long-term plans.
The night was dark, we turned off the headlights and quietly drove to the grain depot not far away, the fence was dark, and the grain depot had no electricity at night.
We turned off the fire and stopped, everyone carried weapons on their backs, like a line of lurking night cats, sneaked under the wall, we waited outside the wall first, only Zhu Hong, Lei Storm, Zhang Xiaomei and Luo Han climbed up little by little.
When they climbed the wall, Thunderstorm and Zhu Hong knocked out the guards who were napping with machine guns, and the alarm was lifted, and they went down to the inner entrance of the grain depot, and found that there was no one guarding the door, and no human voices could be heard nearby, so they opened the small side door of the grain depot and let us all in.
"You killed the guards?" Tang Xiao whispered about the thunderstorm again.
"It's tied up, and my mouth is blocked, and I can't move even if I wake up." Thunderstorm replied, "How can you go on a killing spree before you know who the other party is?" ”
"They killed the people from our base."
"Let's see."
The country's grain depot was staggeringly large, and the huge granary looked like a herd of crouching monsters in the night, giving me the illusion that these were all spaceships about to fly into the sky, ready to emerge at any moment of alien horror creatures.
Gradually walking along the granary into the hinterland of the granary, I finally heard the human voice and saw the light.
We thought it was a dormitory building, and there must have been a lot of staff stationed in such a large grain depot for many years.
Ambushed outside the building and listened carefully, there were a lot of people, but not all men's voices, but also women's voices!
They all seemed to be gathered in a hall on the second floor, from where the light was coming from, they were discussing something, and the voices were noisy.
It's hard to hear you outside the building, but now is a good time to get started.
Everyone quickly put the gun in their hands, lowered their bodies to find the entrance of the building, the door opened as soon as they pushed it, the first floor was very dark, and they rushed up to the second floor along the stairs like lightning, and it was indeed a large activity room, crowded with thirty or forty people.
