Chapter 18: The Second Spring of Gunpowder (Part II)

(PS: I'm going home tomorrow, and I'm in a cold mood.) Everyone's flowers and tickets that? Rock me hard. The rumbling sound resounded through the heavens and the earth, and in the smoke and dust, the hideous-looking tanks revealed their shapes.

"Please stop and show your ID." In front of the checkpoint of the approach bridge of the Jinling Yangtze River Bridge, a sentry with a rifle on his back fearlessly stopped the entire army led by tanks.

With the sound of the sentry, the heavy cannons and individual anti-tank missiles on the level were all aimed at the huge convoy, and they did not let their guard down in the slightest because they had the same black unicorn logo on a red background as on their armbands.

Sequoia, who was sitting in a command car, looked curiously at the situation outside the car that was strictly inspecting the tanks preparing to cross the bridge, and turned to Vincent and wondered: "Aren't you the leader of this country?" Why do you have to be subjected to such a strict inspection? ”

Redsleeves, who was sitting next to Vincent, looked at Vincent with the same curiosity, waiting for him to clear the doubt in his heart, Vincent smiled and did not answer Sequoia's question.

Gunpowder, who was sitting opposite Vincent, saw this opportunity, and immediately took the opportunity to show off: "You don't understand this, the north of our country takes the Yangtze River as the national border, and after crossing the Yangtze River Bridge, you will reach the territory of our country, which is equivalent to the border checkpoint in the civilized period, and we are now going to enter the country, even if they know that it is their own people, they dare not be sloppy in the slightest." The army outside the border does not need to be subject to such strict inspections, but if you enter, it is troublesome, in addition to checking the identity of each soldier to prevent hostile forces from sneaking in, and also to check the body of each soldier to prevent infection with the plague while on a mission outside. ”

"Oh......" Sequoia nodded incomprehensibly, maybe she had a great talent for military affairs, but in other ways, her experience was no different from that of an ordinary little girl, or she was just a natural idiot.

The red sleeves on the side looked out thoughtfully, and muttered: "Some unknown details can be seen from small things, it seems that our country is really gone, and now it is their time." ”

Vincent on the side suddenly raised his head and glanced meaningfully at the sentimental red sleeves, but the smile on the corner of his mouth became deeper.

After an hour-and-a-half-long inspection, the large group finally crossed the Jinling Yangtze River Bridge.

Curious baby Sequoia is really eye-opening now, for four years, accustomed to a vision full of ruins and zombies, accustomed to constantly struggling on the lifeline in order to survive. Suddenly entering a bustling metropolis, there were no zombies on the streets, no ruins of the city, no sense of urgency to survive, all the pedestrians on the streets seemed so leisurely, calm and happy, she felt like she had traveled back to the civilized period before the outbreak of the plague.

She looked out of the car window at the bustling streets, the crowds, and the endless flow of electric vehicles on the streets. She tugged at the gunpowder beside her and shouted, "Hey, Black Wood, is this your country?" It's so bustling, I've almost forgotten the feeling of a big city, is every city like this? Can I go shopping? Why do they all drive electric cars? ”

Gunpowder looked at the surprised redwoods on the side, and explained a little proudly: "This is just Jinling, and this area near the Yangtze River Bridge is a safe area, where more than 30,000 people live. You feel prosperous, so if you go to Xijing, the capital of our Chinese People's Free Federation, then what should you do? But rest assured, our destination is Xijing, the most prosperous and populous city in our country, the political, cultural and economic center. ”

Perhaps it was the first time that he had said so many words in one breath, but after a slight pause, he continued: "But if you want to go shopping, you have to be rich, and the Huaxia coins we use now are different from the currencies of the civilization period." However, my salary is still quite high, and I don't usually spend much money, so I have a decent amount of savings that should be enough for your usual expenses. As for why they are all electric vehicles, because of the fuel shortage now, all fuel vehicles can only be used by the military and a few important government departments, and the civilian and most government departments can only use electric vehicles. ”

"Oh......" Sequoia deliberately stretched his voice in response, and said coquettishly: "Then you will give me money when you get off the car, I will go shopping, I will buy clothes, I will buy jewelry, in short, I will buy a lot of things." I haven't been shopping for 4 years, and I'm suffocated, miss, don't you say? ”

Hearing Sequoia's question, Redsleeves didn't answer immediately, but turned his face to look at Vinson fixedly, with an expression of "you can do it".

Vincent looked at the sweet and cute appearance of the red sleeves, smiled a little, and said softly: "You can do whatever you want, the place that needs to spend money is all counted in my account, although I don't have a salary, but I have a mint." ”

Redsleeves smugly lifted her cute head, waved her little fist at Vincent, and then turned to look outside.

When they arrived in Jinling, all the tanks and vehicles were loaded onto the train and drove to Xijing, and before the sun set, Vincent walked out of the Xijing railway station with his troops.
