Chapter 2 Harvest II
"Stop!" The battle went so fast that by the time Leigh shouted with all her might, the two sides had already exchanged fire.
Sue's eyes were deep, and he moved sideways again, his rifle always pointed at the Roxerland warrior at the top of the hill, but it didn't fire. Leigh's voice was penetrating enough to reach the commanders of the various groups through the walkie-talkie, which stopped the Roxerland warriors who were still trying to fire.
Sue slowly stood up, the muzzle of the gun falling point by point, and then looked at Leigh. Leigh grabbed her hair hard, but her beautiful short chestnut hair was clotted with blood, and she cursed in pain.
Seeing the inconspicuous mark on the shoulder of the Soviet combat uniform, he let out a "huh", looked at it carefully with a small binocular, and said, "Hey, it turns out that this guy has become a big man!" Liz, our spring is coming! ”
Rei looked at Rigolei with some confusion, but Rigolei didn't answer her question, but yelled at the walkie-talkie on his collar: "Why don't you guys put down your guns quickly, do you want to fucking die?!" ”
The scolded Roxyserland warrior put down his gun. It's not that they deliberately want to disobey orders, the soldiers who can move now are veterans of many battles, and of course they know the importance of orders. The reason why they didn't dare to lower their guns was because they were instinctively afraid, afraid that they would be killed by Su the moment they lowered their guns. They originally had an absolute terrain advantage, and Su even looked a little weak, but in the feeling of these veterans who already had an instinctive sense of danger to the crisis, they were surrounded by a fierce beast that they could never deal with.
It was getting dark quickly.
The surviving Roxyserland warriors lit bonfires in the valley and set up marching tents. A clearing was carved out of the valley on which nearly a hundred body bags were piled up. Before dark, the soldiers of Roxserland managed to recover as many of their comrades as they could, and the cost was heavy, as two men died under the undetonated in-flight mines.
The corpses of the Blue Scorpion warriors were placed in a separate pile. All their clothing and equipment were removed, and the bodies were placed in sealed body bags and infused with embalming gas.
Someone had already driven back to Pendulum City overnight. It's too far away from Pendulum City, beyond the distance of wireless communication, and people can only go back and call more trucks. The few existing personnel carriers could not carry such a large number of corpses. It is estimated that it will be dawn for trucks to arrive here, and it will be only then that they will be able to evacuate the battlefield.
With the exception of a handful of large corporations, most of the people who survive in the wilderness will rot in place if they die on the battlefield. After Leigh became the commander of the Roxerland forces, he made a military rule that if he could, he must bring back the corpses of his comrades.
At the top of a hill to the north, Su, Leigh, and Rigore sat around. They were here to spy on the Blue Scorpion, after all, two chariots had escaped back, and no one knew when they would return. Only two things are certain, and that is that they will come again, and it will be more difficult to deal with when they do.
The blue scorpion's mobility is too strong, ordinary sentinels are completely useless, only people with high abilities like Su, Li, and Rigolei are likely to detect them in advance, so the three of them sit on the top of this hill with an excellent view, guarding against possible attacks.
Li looked at the busy warriors in the valley below, she was not good at perception, let alone Su Zai, she didn't need to perceive anything at all. She sat with her knees crossed, her head tilted, looking at the thick darkness in the night sky, and said, "That is, you are here just so that we can be your servants?" ”
They had been sitting on the top of the mountain for a while, and Sue, who was not good at eloquence, finally revealed all his intentions. Of course, the encounter with the blue scorpion was indeed a coincidence.
Su thought for a moment and said calmly, "That's true. Now Pendulum City has become very unsafe, and Roxerland's skill level is simply not able to compete with the Blue Scorpion, and only the Dark Dragoon can resist the Blue Scorpion. ”
"If we don't rely on the Dark Dragoon, we will definitely die?" Rei remained in her original position, still looking up at the sky.
"Yes. Unless you abandon Pendulum City and retreat to headquarters. In Sue's view, the answer to this question is very obvious. Judging from the size and equipment of this Blue Scorpion, it is most likely a reconnaissance detachment with enhanced firepower. Just a reconnaissance detachment almost wiped out the armament of the Roxserland Division, and the results after the arrival of the follow-up troops are self-evident.
"I'm not leaving. This land is the result of several years of construction and cannot be given to anyone. Leigh's voice was soft, but very resolute.
Su frowned, and in his opinion, Leigh's insistence seemed very strange. Compared to the vast wilderness, there are very few people. Although Pendulum City is well built, the buildings of 99 are still abandoned. And the traffic location of Pendulum City is good, but there are not many resources around. It only takes a year for a company like Roxerland, which has water treatment technology and equipment, to build a better base than Pendulum City.
The plot of the homeland has long been buried under the ruins of the old era with the rising radiation clouds.
Li suddenly turned her head, stared at Su with shining eyes, and said, "If we don't obey, you won't care about the blue scorpion anymore, right?" ”
Su was stunned for a moment, thought about it carefully, and then said, "The blue scorpion was an accident. In fact, it's too close to the Dark Dragoon. And there is no better supply point in this area than Pendulum City for the time being, so even if the blue scorpion doesn't come, sooner or later, there will be a dark dragoon or a certain family who will take a fancy to this place. ”
"Obey, obey. If you're a servant, you'll have to protect us, right? Leigh asked. There was something strange on her face, as if it were disappointed as well as relieved.
Su replied seriously: "It is the obligation and responsibility of the dragoon to protect the subordinates, and attacking the servants is no different from attacking the dragoons themselves. Here's the details, you can take a look. ”
Sue took out a booklet and handed it to Leigh. Li quickly glanced at it, said "It was a slave contract", and threw it to Rigore. Rigore began to look at it seriously.
Leigh stretched her body, lay back on the ground, looked up at the night sky without stars and moons, and said, "Okay, be a slave!" But let's talk about the price. Tell me, how much money are you going to give me, and these soldiers under my command will have to be taken with me, and as for the matter of compensating Roxerland, you will take care of it. Finally, how often are you going to sleep with me? ”
Although there is a tactical mask to cover, it can still be seen that Sue's expression has become very exciting. He hummed a few times before saying, "Your fixed remuneration is only 100 yuan per month now, and it will be slowly increased in the future." Because I'm poor now......"
"Have you ever been rich?!" Leigh unceremoniously interrupted Sue, and she remembered the coin that had once flown in the air.
For such a sharp question, Su was silent, and then honestly said: "No, and now it is poorer." I owe a lot of money to others. ”
"You're asking us to work for you so you can pay it back?" Leigh asked sharply.
Sue was silent again, sounding as if that was the whole thing.
"Okay, it's okay to work hard. What about my people? Once again, Leigh threw Sue an unsolvable problem.
"They have no choice but to be your mercenaries. Not everyone can be a servant ......"
Su was halfway through speaking, but was interrupted by Li: "I know! What other registration fees do you have, you can't pay them, can you? ”
"Yes." Su has nothing to hide about this matter, "The registration fee for each servant is 10,000, so now I only have your and Rigore's quota ready." ”
"Wait, she's her, I'm me, I have nothing to do with her, the price between us has to be negotiated separately!" Rigore said hurriedly.
At this time, Sue's tactical board suddenly flashed, and as soon as he pressed the edge of the tactical board, the screen lit up. There is a message in it, the Dark Dragoon Headquarters attaches great importance to the Blue Scorpion, and estimates the value of their invasion information, the corpses of 9 Blue Scorpion warriors, and the captured equipment and ammunition at 110,000, and pays 80,000 to Su's account in advance, and if the corpses and equipment can provide more valuable information, the reward can be added. After Su brings these things back to headquarters, he can receive the rest of the payment.
According to the rules of the wilderness, Sue won the battle almost alone, so the vast majority of the spoils should be distributed. This time Su was not polite, and Rigore and Li were also very happy, and Roxerland only needed the body and equipment of one of the warriors to go back for research, and the rest was given to Sue. This kind of advanced weapon is useless because of the limited ammunition, in fact, it is useless to take too much.
Su didn't expect that there would be so much honorarium for this unexpected mission. It looks like the Blue Scorpion is a newly discovered enemy for the Dark Dragoon, and that's the most valuable part. As for the corpses and equipment of the warriors, the value of the reference is more than the value of the test. The experts at the headquarters can deduce the technical level and combat concept of the blue scorpion from the evolution of their physical body and the equipment used, so as to formulate specific tactics and even develop new types of equipment.
From Li's point of view, she could just peek at the content on Su's screen, she immediately snorted and sneered, "What is this?" It seems that you just received 80,000 yuan, but you are only willing to pay me 100 yuan a month? ”
After Su replied to the confirmation message, he patiently explained: "Hu Cong's equipment and upgrade costs are all borne by the dragoon. In other words, not only you, but even the equipment of your soldiers will have to be prepared. You feel like 80,000 yuan is a lot, yes, it's a lot, and the Dark Dragoon is worth a lot more than the Ascend Coins in the wilderness. But I need to prepare you with a full set of combat equipment, as well as a life support and medical kit. And in order to deal with the next attack of the Blue Scorpion, we need something that can deal with the chariot, and the price of such things will be unexpectedly expensive. So this time, the money will be used to replenish equipment. ”
Li sneered a few times, and just wanted to say something, Li Gaolei, who was reading the manual with a hard head on the side, suddenly laughed a few times, interrupting the increasingly soured negotiation between Su and Li: "Okay, okay, Hu Cong is actually similar to a servant who sold his body!" Therefore, if we become subordinates, we are not qualified to dictate how the master distributes funds. Of course, I'm sure Sue will have a good arrangement. ”
"Come, Su, it's time for us to have a good talk, you know that I have never been a demanding person, money, power, beautiful women and safety, only have it, I am your person!" As he spoke, he stood up, pulled Sue far away, and spoke in a whisper.
Leigh pricked up her ears, but she could barely hear what they were saying, and she was so angry that she grabbed her hair in anger and grunted herself in pain. In desperation, she stared at the night sky viciously, but she couldn't see anything.
It hadn't been five minutes before Rigore and Su walked back with a smile on his face.
"From now on, Second Lieutenant Su will be our master!" Rigoray announced. Leigh immediately bounced up from the ground and shouted, "You explain the word "us!" ”
"We mean me and you." Rigore was succinct and to the point.
"But......" Rei tried to protest, but she didn't seem angry enough.
"Nothing, that's it. When have you come forward to negotiate and have not messed things up? "Rigore ruthlessly debunked Leigh.
"But......" Leigh's voice was much quieter, and finally fell silent.
Su breathed a sigh of relief, just when he was almost about to give up, he didn't expect things to turn so quickly. Li Gaolei sighed and scolded in a low voice: "It seems that as long as these two fools get together, they can talk about anything!" ”
At dawn, the convoy from Pendulum City finally reached the valley. Sue loaded all the loot onto one of the fastest heavy transport trucks and said goodbye to Leigh and Rigore. Before leaving, he left Sgera, who still had more than forty rounds of ammunition, to Rigore, and taught him how to use it. The Sgra in Su's hand has been readjusted, and the bullets it carries are also special charges, which are 30 more powerful than ordinary Sgra. The price of great power is that Su estimated that if Rigolei fired three shots in a row, with his roughly only two-order strengthened strength, most of his wrists would be broken.
After a brief goodbye, Sue was eager to leave. He had to rush back to Dragon City as quickly as possible, hand over the mission, and collect the supplies.
While waiting, Quinn sent a message. Penny has been admitted to Persephone's private hospital and has begun pre-operative care. Quinn has already completed all the formalities for registration and paid the corresponding fees. This surprises the young girl who is in charge of the registration of the dragoon, who asks about Quinn's origin from the side throughout the registration process. Because in her experience, she has never had to go through the registration procedures and pay the fee herself, especially from Quinn's words, the money is still from him.
The registration fee of 10,000 yuan is a small amount for the Dark Dragoon, but it is an astronomical amount for ordinary people. Because the easiest way to make money is to go out with missions, which can be completed by the Dark Dragoon, but for small and medium-sized companies, and even some large companies, these are death missions.
Before Su left, Li suddenly walked up to him and said in a deliberately low and stiff voice, "Thank you, the one who didn't kill me this time." ”
Su smiled, boarded the transport car, and walked away. http:///
