Chapter Ninety-Three: The Soldiers (I)
"As you can see, the condition of the troops themselves is also very bad right now......"
In the early morning, in the diffuse sunshine and morning mist, Jiang He accompanied Lin Xi and the others in the camp before they set off slowly.
The nature of a soldier is to worship the strong, and after an unscrupulous temptation, Lin Xi's position in this army has been completely consolidated.
Of course, this solidity doesn't mean that he can fit in, but at least no one will deliberately provoke him without opening his eyes.
"I can see it."
Lin Xi glanced at the military uniform on Jiang He's body.
Although he has deliberately maintained a straight posture in this camouflage combat uniform, the scorch marks and tears on the hem and cuffs still unabashedly illustrate the fierceness of the previous battle, and even the lenses of his gold-rimmed glasses have left a clear crack.
"Hmm."
Jiang He smiled bitterly.
Then the eyes of the two wandered around the camp together.
The atmosphere of new defeat also permeates every detail of this camp:
Although those who can carry out tasks in the city after the catastrophe must be the most elite soldiers in the army, and the retreat work is also carried out in an orderly manner on the surface, Lin Xi can still see a deeply hidden frustration and grief in the eyes of every soldier, like a suppressed flame.
Almost everyone had blood on their bodies, and Lin Xi couldn't tell which ones were his own and which ones were splashed from the corpses of their comrades or enemies.
Obviously, this large force has also encountered very fierce battles before.
Although it is not like the company responsible for rescuing Lin Xi and them, after the first battle, there are not many survivors, but it is true that as Jiang He said, their current situation is also very unfavorable, the death rate is close to a quarter, and there are a lot of serious injuries, because of such heavy casualties, so soldiers who are not too seriously injured like Jiezi before now have to be lightly injured and continue to be on duty with injuries.
"Didi-"
Military vehicles drove past Lin Xi, and their bodies were covered with claw marks and bloodstains.
The glass windows of many vehicles seem to have been hit by key attacks, they have been shattered, the carriages are covered with glass slag and residual blood, and the soldiers are crowded in the middle of the mess, even if they don't need to probe in, Lin Xi can smell that there is a bad smell inside.
It was a strange mixture of medicine, gunsmoke, sweat acid, blood, and animal stench.
Lin Xi snorted and asked, "You guys got involved with the beast tide?" ”
"the beast tide?"
Major Jiang He smiled bitterly, and behind the crack of the spectacle lens, a look of fear suddenly flashed,
"You think too highly of us, just with our little manpower, if it weren't for the fact that the beast tide didn't chase and kill at that time, the whole army might have been wiped out a long time ago, and it is estimated that none of the people here will survive."
After listening to Major Jianghe's narration, Lin Xi understood that it turned out that not long after the giant took away a company, they were attacked from both sides by the beast tide and the corpse tide, although they were very lucky not to encounter overwhelming combat power such as bloody zombies, and they were barely able to support it, but they also suffered heavy losses, and they could only fight and retreat, and were chased into dogs, but fortunately, both corpse beasts retreated at the same time, and they were able to survive, otherwise they were afraid that it would be really as Jiang He said, none of them would survive.
In the face of the overwhelming tide of corpses and beasts, they are not even a small pebble at all, and they will be swallowed up cleanly without a bubbling after they are thrown in.
"Hey, you're in luck."
Lin Xi patted Jiang He's shoulder with affection, and then told the story of the dragon wolf fighting the corpse king.
In the process of his narration, Jiang He's face changed several times, and it was cloudy and uncertain.
It wasn't until long after Lin Xi finished telling that the major, who had experienced a lot of killings, still maintained a silent posture.
After a long while, he let out a long breath, shook his head with a wry smile, and said, "I can't imagine that we are fighting here to live and die, but in fact, it is just the aftermath of a serious battle." ”
Thinking of this, he suddenly beckoned and beckoned to his adjutant, "You go to my command car and bring that red document bag." ”
The adjutant left as he said, while Lin Xi stood by and watched all this, without saying a word.
Soon, a bag of documents that seemed to have been soaked in blood was delivered to the two of them.
Jiang He opened the file bag, flipped through the thick pile of documents, and then took out a photo and handed it to Lin Xi, "Is this the corpse king you saw?" ”
Lin Xi looked down and immediately felt a strong fierce aura rushing towards him!
The photograph is black and white, and the picture above shows a tall giant roaring in the sky, with a hideous face, which occupies almost 80% of the entire picture.
The sun, which couldn't tell whether it was the rising sun or the setting sun, shone from behind him, reflecting him so that he could only see most of the gray and black silhouettes.
However, unlike normal people, this guy is wrapped in thick white bone armor all over his body, and there are sharp and narrow bone spurs growing out of the joints.
Even if it's just a photo, there's a boundless breath of anger coming out.
The white bone giant in this photo is vivid and lifelike, as if it will tear out of the paper at any time and kill everyone present!
"Shhh
Lin Xi gasped.
He squinted his eyes and stared at the photo for a long time before pushing Jiang He's hand back and said slowly, "It was too far away at that time, and I couldn't be 100% sure, but it should be eight or nine...... Is this the indispensable bone? ”
"Yes." Jiang He nodded affirmatively, but his eyes suddenly revealed a thick sadness and remembrance, "You should be glad that you are far enough away, and there are mutant birds and beasts that attract firepower for you, otherwise you probably won't be able to stand here and talk to me now, you are the only lucky person we know of who can come back alive after witnessing the immortal bones." In order to take this photo, we paid the most expensive reconnaissance equipment in the regiment, and a scout at the peak of the Inhuman, he ...... It's my brother. ”
After a pause, as if he was worried that Lin Xi didn't understand the doorway, the major who had sacrificed his loved ones added,
"Just ten minutes after this photo was sent back, he was discovered by the bones, and he was at least two kilometers away from the bones, you may not know, our instrument zoom function is excellent, under normal circumstances, even if it is shot from a few kilometers apart, there is no problem, and it is not a direct observation, it is an optical image capture, and then displayed on the computer screen, logically speaking, this way, it will never cause the perception of the bones......"
"But obviously," Lin Xi interrupted, "this guy is not a reasonable guy!" ”
After a pause, he added, "Condolences." ”
Jiang He was stunned for a moment, and then began to smile bitterly again, as if he only had such an expression left, "Yes, you are right......"
"This guy can't be said logically, this world is ...... It's a world that doesn't make sense! ”
In the last sentence, even this polite guy finally couldn't help but burst into a foul language.
