The night was a thrilling one, as there was no damage to the KH599 road specified by Borg, and even though the detectable range of the troop carrier was always limited to 50 meters, Hunter still drove it until the sky was bright, of course, Zhao Yu can bet that more than half of the time it was autopilot.

Zhao Yu rubbed his eyes and straightened up from his seat, his muscles did not have any discomfort except for a slight soreness, which once again made him feel the value of health.

Borg had woken up a long time ago, still without a helmet, and he opened a car window, rested his cheek with one hand, and looked out the window in a daze. And the scenery outside the window, as always, is nothing to see, only dull stones and shrubs, and low dark clouds that seem to never go away.

Gabriel was still sitting in place, wearing a helmet and a face mask, and Zhao Yu couldn't even tell if he was awake or napping.

"Awake?" Borg looked at Zhao Yu, "How do you feel?" ”

"It's okay, I'm just a little hungry." Speaking of which, I haven't eaten for almost a day.

"Me too...... I specifically instructed the people at the base to bring some food when they evacuated, hoping that they would remember. Borg sighed.

At this time, Hunter spoke in the driver's seat in front of him, "Sergeant, I received a contact signal from Sergeant Hartman. ”

"Oh, looks like we're at our destination." Borg put on his helmet, "I'm Sergeant Borg, please speak." ”

Zhao Yu also put on his helmet again, the communication channel was not encrypted, and the conversation between the two was transmitted word for word.

"Sergeant Borg, it's good to hear you." Hartman was the commander of the other MF1, "I'm sending you the coordinates of our current position, please meet us at this location." ”

Borg was silent for a moment, apparently checking the map: "This is not Hudick?" ”

"It's about five kilometers south of Hubdick, and it's here that we've joined up with another friendly army."

"Huh? Do we still have allies? ”

"Some brothers of the 472 Mecha Regiment, like us, are reluctant to surrender and plan to go to the Fifth War Zone." Hartman's voice sounded very excited, "We're going to make it!" ”

"That's great news...... But why don't we meet directly in the town of Hudick? ”

"That town...... We are a little uncertain, the people of the 472nd regiment heard about the old man and wanted to see if it was reliable. ”

Zhao Yu didn't expect that he would be shot just by listening, and couldn't help but interject: "There's something wrong with that Hudick Town?" ”

"We don't know if there's a problem, it's only been two hours since we joined the 472nd regiment, and we've just arrived here, but there's something unusual in that town...... Anyway, you can come over first, and then we'll talk about it in detail. ”

Borg turned off the communication channel and shrugged at Zhao Yu: "We still have to wait for us to discuss...... Look at this efficiency, only those who can beat the alliance army have ghosts! ”

Although he said mean words, ten minutes later, Borg took the lead in putting on a sunny smile, jumped out of the car and hugged Sergeant Hartman warmly, and slapped the other man on the back vigorously, like a reunion of friends who had not seen him for many years.

"Old Charles often said that if it were in peacetime, our sergeant could at least be a senator." Hunter muttered to himself as he watched the scene.

Zhao Yu and the other two also got out of the car, and a strong and burly man who looked like a professional wrestler came up to him, and the power armor couldn't restrain his muscles: "Brothers, it's great to see you come back!" ”

"Corporal Batalha, if you don't let go, our combat uniforms will be scrapped......"

Zhao Yu looked around, it was the edge of a hill, he saw four MF1s and a heavy shield, and at least a hundred mecha infantrymen, almost all of the soldiers had taken off their helmets, apparently resting, while Borg and Hartman were chatting with an officer.

"That's Lieutenant Tony Lee, from the 472nd Regiment," Batalha introduced, "with more than a hundred brothers." ”

"Li ......?" Zhao Yu narrowed his eyes and looked over, and finally regrettably determined that the other party was just surnamed more like his compatriots, and from the perspective of blood, he may have nothing to do with the Chinese since the founding of the United States, and he is an absolutely pure white man, "By the way, the state of those chariots doesn't seem to be very good?" ”

"The 472nd Regiment is not as easy to talk to as the old guys of our regiment, and Lieutenant Li led people all the way out of the base." Batalha explained.

"So ruthless? The 472nd Regiment did not send pursuers? ”

"After chasing more than ten kilometers, I gave up, and the 472nd Regiment wanted to prepare for surrender as a whole team." Batalha shook his head as he spoke, "We are the only ones who have been chased and killed all the way. ”

"It's amazing." Zhao Yu sighed.

At this time, a mecha infantry came over: "Hey, Zhao Yu, you are still alive!" What happened to the injury on my left hand? ”

There are not many people who know Zhao Yu's name, and are willing to call this name instead of calling the nickname "old man", only one to be exact, but this person was wearing a helmet before, so Zhao Yu was also stunned for a moment before reacting: "...... Private Christine Sanchez? ”

"Remember my full name, I'm so touched, come and hug!"

Christine walked up with a smile on her face as she spoke, wrapped her hands around Zhao Yu's neck and hugged her hard, and several soldiers around her whistled maliciously.

Zhao Yu's body stiffened for a moment, but finally hugged Christine and patted him gently. The other party's black hair brushed his face, with a faint scent, making him feel that all this was a little unreal.

Why didn't anyone tell me that Christine Sanchez was a woman!

"You did a great job yesterday, and the enemy's attack was paralyzed at once, so we had a chance to escape......" Christine finally let go of Zhao Yu, "Wow, your face is a little red, haven't you been hugged by a young girl before?" ”

Zhao Yu could only sigh again: "No, there have been...... But that was more than a hundred years ago. ”

Speaking of this time, Zhao Yu himself felt ridiculous - after learning the nature of his illness, the girl disappeared without leaving a word, and Zhao Yu did not blame her, because even he himself was desperate at that time. But today, Zhao Yu is still standing here alive, his whole body exuding the vitality of a young man, and that girl ...... It has long disappeared from this world, and it may not even be possible to find a tombstone.

Christine didn't know what Zhao Yu was feeling in his heart, and showed an apologetic expression: "I'm sorry, did it remind you of something bad in the past?" ”

Zhao Yu shrugged: "It's okay, it's all over." ”

"That'...... I'll go back to me first, and remember to find me if you have something! ”

Christine walked away, and Hunter stabbed Zhao Yu in the waist: "Old man, I am impressed with you...... How long have you been with her? Ten minutes? Fifteen minutes? Is this the 21st century pickle cheats? Can you teach me? ”

Zhao Yu glanced at him: "It's simple, you can sleep for two or three hundred years, and then you can brag that you are a person with a story." ”

"Oh, I don't want to sleep until two or three hundred years, and it would be so frustrating if I woke up and the countdown to death was still there!" Hunter touched his chin and continued to look at Christine in the distance, "Old man, this girl is very tasteful, if you are not interested, I will go for it." ”

"You don't expect the captain to take you to Las Vegas for a day of drinking?"

"Hahaha, I'll test you, and sure enough, you're tempted!" Hunter smiled and gave Zhao Yu a punch, and walked away by himself, "Then hurry up, old man, the way to pursue girls in this era may be very different from your time, you have to practice!" ”

"This era?" Zhao Yu exhaled, "I still have to take the time to get to know each other." ”

In all fairness, Christine is pretty good-looking. She is clearly of Latino descent, with slightly curly black hair, slightly brown skin, dark pupils, and she doesn't look very old, maybe in her early twenties, and her legs are still very long - if it was the beginning of the 21st century, she would have no problem going to Hollywood, but this is the middle of the 22nd century, most people are genetically modified, and there are also a lot of hands and feet on the face, and it is really not easy to find an ugly one, and her advantage is not so obvious.

Thinking of this, Zhao Yu looked at the people around him again, the United States is worthy of being a country of immigrants, even if the country does not exist, there are still all kinds of ethnic groups living on this land, among the more than 100 people standing here, blacks account for about one-third, whites from blonde to black-haired, and Latinos like Christine also see seven or eight, and even two seem to be Arabs, but what makes Zhao Yu puzzled is that there is no yellow-skinned and black-haired East Asian except himself, even if he is suspected of Southeast Asian ancestry.

What the hell? Isn't it said that there are a lot of Asians on the West Coast of the United States? What has happened in the last hundred years? Even if it is a "big eruption", it will not just make the Chinese disappear, right?

Zhao Yu was thinking about finding someone to ask about this topic, and Borg had already returned.

"I communicated with Lieutenant Li and them, and it seems that they don't need our help for the time being, old man, we can sit on the side and watch the play."

"Watching a play? What the hell is going on? ”

Borg motioned for Zhao Yu to follow him to the edge of the hill, pointed to the distance and said, "That's the town of Hudick, can you see it?" ”

"Absolutely."

It was a massacre of dull gray-and-white houses, with few more than five floors, and no features, and it could accommodate about twenty or thirty thousand people in terms of size.

"The town of Hudick is supposed to have residents, but we couldn't contact them, and the whole town was dead silent," Borg explained, "and Lieutenant Lee and they watched for two hours and found nothing. ”

"So you're going to meet us up and have a look?" Zhao Yu couldn't help but ask another question, "But why do we have to care about the affairs of Woody Town?" There's still a big number of chasing soldiers behind, and it's hard to get ahead of them for a night, so there's no reason to waste it here, right? ”

"Oh, I didn't make it clear to you, the town of Huddick used to be used as a military base, and it only began to gradually change to civilian use more than ten years ago." Borg replied, "You also know that we don't have enough supplies, and we have to replenish them, and the town of Hubdick is our last possible supply point - as for Lieutenant Lee, he had accidentally received an information when he was in the 472nd Regiment that he was secretly conducting research on weapons in the town, and he wanted to get that as a welcome gift to the Fifth War Zone. ”

"It sounds like it's the beginning of a group of people dying and releasing monsters in a vulgar story......"

"But we can't stop him." Borg clasped his hands to his chest, "Ah, Lieutenant Lee's men are leaving. ”

An MF1 and a squad of mech infantry left the hill and headed for the town below.

"Very cautious." Zhao Yu said unexpectedly, "Is he planning to rely on this person to search the town?" It got dark, right? ”

"No, he just plans to send someone in to see what is going on first, after all, there should be at least tens of thousands of people in this town, and now he can't see any of them, it's not normal after all...... If it's sure that there is no one, the main force left here should probably be mobilized. ”

Zhao Yu frowned and looked at the team of scouts.

Both the mecha infantry and the battle spider were very fast, and within a few minutes they had reached the entrance of the town, and the battle spider slowed down and stepped onto the road at the entrance of the town with the coordination of several infantrymen, and then disappeared.

For the next half hour, everyone who remained on the hill had nothing to do, and Zhao Yu took the opportunity to ask for something to eat in Batalha, and finally recovered a little strength. Just when Zhao Yu was about to go to chat with Christine, there was a sudden commotion on the side of the 472nd regiment.

"What's going on?" Zhao Yu saw Lieutenant Li give some orders to his subordinates with a serious face, and then put on his helmets, the mecha infantry stood up one after another, and the guns on their backs were raised, and the two MF1s and heavy shields were launched together, looking like they were about to go on the expedition, "The advance team has sent a report of safety?" ”

"It's the opposite." Hunter walked over, "I heard that the advance team suddenly lost contact...... It's weird! That's twenty mech infantrymen and an MF1! Even if there is an ambush in the town, it won't be so bad that they won't even have time to warn! ”

There was not a single man left in the 472nd Regiment, and hundreds of people rushed down the hill and headed straight for the town of Hudick.

==========================

Well, after sorting out the outline, I found that it might be a lot shorter than the previous book...... It's okay, anyway, I just want to write a story I want to write, and I'm happy, right?

With a different way of thinking, the possibility of completing the book has also been greatly improved!
