Chapter XXVI Tactical Thinking Against the T-1000
Several people sat together, and only T800 stood by to stand on guard. Shen Chao wanted to discuss the itinerary first and calculate the ammunition or something. But Sara had other plans.
"We need to talk about people. Sara said and looked at the two soy sauce crowds next to him and looked at Shen Chao again, Shen Chao thought about it for a while and understood, Sara probably thought the two of them were cumbersome, and wanted to find a place to leave them, reduce the goal, and travel lightly. Shen Chao looked at her and nodded, indicating that he also agreed with her point of view, it really didn't take too many people to protect John.
"Todd, Jenny, you are no longer in danger, for the other terminator, you are no longer important, as long as you find a place to hide for a while, and then change your identity, you can come back to live......" Shen Chao gave such a proposal after a little organization of language. However, after all, he was a field agent, and his skills were not strong enough, and Todd was anxious when he heard him say this.
"Hey, don't leave us behind. Jenny and I can help too, we can help you with chores or something" The bald Todd, who was a little bald, was not slow in his brain, and immediately reacted when he heard this, this was to leave the two of them and run away by himself. hurriedly opened his mouth and begged Shen Chao.
"Don't be afraid, Todd. We will take you to a safe place first, and then leave you with some necessary supplies and money before leaving. You know, we have to find a way to get rid of the Terminator eventually. You won't be able to help when the time comes......" After some explanation, Shen Chao and Sara persuaded together, and successfully ignored the little savior who wanted to say something, and finally persuaded the two to part ways at the next stop.
"Hey, how can we do this, Mommy ......" Until the end, the little savior still asked. It seems that he still doesn't quite understand why he had to leave his adoptive parents behind. Although he didn't like his adoptive parents, he didn't want to see them in distress either.
"John, you are the number one target of the T-1000, they are not. In the end, it was T800 who persuaded the little savior to stop asking.
With the question of whether the two non-combatants are left or not, Shen Chao and Sara are ready to discuss their next move.
"The first thing we need to do is to find a place to replenish ammunition, preferably with some heavy weapons. Shen Chao sat on an old chair pulled from the corner of the wall. His construction was quickly recognized by Sara and the T-800.
"I know a place where we can get there very quickly just by crossing the border. Sara said confidently. Shen Chao knew that the place she wanted to go was probably the one in the plot of the movie, and indeed, there were a lot of weapons there.
However, there are no full-fledged directed-energy weapons in this era, there are no aviation thermite bombs, there are no EMP generators. No matter how you look at it, you can't kill the T1000. After all, they can't call for an air strike, otherwise if a bomb goes down, any kind of terminator will have to become scum.
"Is it possible to resupply conventional ammunition at the place you are talking about?" I have already used up half of the ammunition I prepared in my haste today. Although Shen Chao had a lot of questions in his heart, he only asked this one question in the end.
"Yes, I have prepared a lot of arms outside the country. Sara replied. He had just seen the firepower that Shen Chao was carrying, and the continuous shooting of the rifle could completely hinder that terrifying machine. It also reminded her of the large amount of weapons and ammunition she had stored near the border on the road just now.
"Alright, we should rush over as much as we can." Shen Chao briefly concluded. Although it was a day before the group encountered the T1000 again in the movie, Shen Chao still hoped to replenish ammunition and strengthen firepower as much as possible.
After finalizing the destination, several people spent a few minutes arranging the route and travel interval, Shen Chao looked at it, there were no safety hazards, so he arranged for Todd and Jenny to get in the car and prepare. Following the little savior to collect the gasoline in the two cars, Shen Chao went out and stole two more cars. Finally, ten minutes later, everyone was on the road again, but this time on the road was different from the previous one, Sara didn't know what to think, insisted on taking John and Shen Chao to sit in a car, and let the terminator and the two guys who had been scared for a day open the road in front. It seems that she still doesn't trust the Terminator who saved John. …,
"Can you identify yourself now, sir?" Taking advantage of the night, Sara asked from the back seat. Shen Chao was munching gum and driving in the driver's seat, and he just smiled when he heard Sarah's question.
"I don't have any official status for the time being, and you won't find my deposit zài in any official documents." So, my name, my codename, or whatever's experience is really heavy? Shen Chao continued to chew gum and follow the car in front.
"Then why are you helping us?" Aren't you afraid of those machines? Sara asked curiously. Usually when people hear her say Terminator or something, they either think of her as a madman, or they ignore her completely, and she has never seen Shen Chao who is willing to believe her without saying a word and take the risk to help her.
"Scared? Now it's a little bit. After all, I've never met an opponent who has been shot dozens of times in a row and can still get up and attack. But wasn't he fighting before, how could he be scared at that time? Shen Chao is telling the truth, when he was a novice in the early years, he would be nervous before every time he carried out the task of the third echelon, and he would be afraid later.
But these instincts have long been honed by him in the missions he has carried out again and again. Now, no matter what the situation is, he will not mess up in battle. Just like when he blocked the T1000 in the hospital just now, although he obviously couldn't beat the enemy, the recovery speed of the T1000 was a little faster than he expected, but he still calmly escaped according to the pre-made plan.
"Now, instead of guessing who I am, let's think about what to do with that T1000. ”
"My Terminator says he can't take out that T1000, what can you do?" The little savior next to Sara asked. The tone was rather skeptical.
"Quite simply, we create a local extreme environment. Use ultra-high or ultra-low temperatures to deal with it. Let it turn into a puddle of molten steel or a popsicle. Shen Chao directly said the best plan to deal with T1000.
"How?" Sara next to her said strangely that she was not a professional soldier, and she was not a convenient life in the Internet age. So for a while, I couldn't think of any weapons or tactical arrangements that matched Shen Chao's description.
"Thermite bombs or whole bottles of liquid nitrogen, it's best to get both." Shen Chao briefly introduced that he had used small thermite bombs before. Therefore, he has a lot of trust in the power of this weapon.
"What do those things do?" Sara wondered.
"A standard small thermite bomb can create an absolute killing range of 2-3 meters in diameter and 900-1200 degrees Celsius at the time of explosion. We know that the T1000 is made of liquid metal, so I don't expect it to be able to withstand such extreme heat. Shen Chao avoided basic chemical knowledge and directly explained the actual killing effect of thermite bombs.
"As for liquid nitrogen, it's even simpler. The boiling point of nitrogen is minus 196 degrees Celsius, and if we can successfully pour a large tank of liquid nitrogen on the T1000, we can quickly turn it into a static sculpture. Shen Chao said calmly, as if the T1000 had turned into a harmless big ice sculpture.
"Are you sure that's going to work?" Sara asked after listening to Shen Chao's explanation, looking at her appearance, she should still be skeptical.
"Absolutely, the T1000 can't defy the laws of physics. Shen Chao said categorically, he had seen the movie, and of course he knew that at least the second idea was absolutely effective.
"However, both methods have flaws. He continued. Speaking of this, Sara next to her showed a "sure enough" expression.
"Liquid nitrogen evaporates very quickly at room temperature. So it's not easy to transport and use, so I personally recommend using it as an alternative or escape solution. And thermite is a bit dangerous, especially if we don't have a professional chemical laboratory. Shen Chao thought for a moment and added. …,
"Do you know where to get the stuff you said?" Sara asked, after a moment's thought.
"Of course, but since these things are controlled items, you can't buy them. Shen Chao didn't care how wonderful Sarah's face suddenly became, so he said.
"So what's the use of saying that?" The little savior was immediately anxious, and Sarah, who was next to her, seemed to be a little angry.
"If you can't buy the finished product, you can make it yourself, are you Americans, why don't you have any DIY spirit at all?" "Shen Chao is also very strange, he has been in the third echelon for too long, and he has long been accustomed to joining a battle where he is at a firepower weak. And use all kinds of existing things around you to create favorable conditions for yourself. So he still has a lot of experience in making homemade improvised weapons and equipment.
"Tomorrow we'll go to the University of California and get some aluminum powder, white phosphorus, iron powder, and magnesium bars, and I'll show you." Shen Chao said with a relaxed face, as if he was saying that there was no security guard at the University of California, and the police officers were also on vacation.
"As for liquid nitrogen, it's even simpler, and it's impossible for the Department of Physics to do high-energy laser real without it." Let's just go and bring two bottles. Shen Chao said as a matter of course, he has done too much black work of infiltration and theft over the years, so that he doesn't think there is anything wrong with such behavior.
Sara next to her looked at the lawless person sitting in the front seat, and didn't know what to say. But when the little savior next to him heard it, he looked eager to try.
Of course, the thermite bomb is not so easy to make, but Shen Chao also understands that this is not the time to pursue quality, it can be used, as long as the killing effect can be guaranteed, and the other steps can be simplified.
After talking about the tactics of the T-1000, several people started talking about other things, with Sara telling the story of her early encounter with John's father and the encounter with the first Terminator. The little savior talked about how he modified his motorcycle and stole spare money from other people's credit cards...... Shen Chao listened carefully in front, comparing his vague memories of several Terminator movies.
"So, how did you know my story?" I mean about Skynet? Sara asked, seemingly unintentionally. Shen Chao glanced at her, as if he had expected her to ask this question a long time ago.
"Would you believe me if I said that I was just someone who happened to be passing by and happened to know your story?" Shen Chao asked.
"Forget it, you obviously have a lot of secrets. Sara looked at him, snapped out, and sat aside.
"Try to get some sleep, you two, we're two hours away from our destination." Shen Chao said after checking his weapon again.
