Volume 1 Section 179 Refuge

The new head of logistics is a tall, lanky middle-aged man with a smile on his face, as if that is his eternal sign.

In another month and a half, the recruit training period will be over. Su Hao knew better than anyone the role of these new weapons on the battlefield, and he could not tolerate the exchange of human lives for mutant creatures before the equipment was complete. Therefore, for almost a month, he spent almost a month in the office of the logistics department, constantly asking the new director to give priority to his own equipment.

In order to achieve his goal, Su Hao asked the commander Xu Renjie for a warrant twice before and after, and even pulled Ren Yijiang, the owner of the information office, to help him find someone to help.

"Human affection" is one of the indispensable and important resources of modern society. Even in the world after the Black Age, it is also particularly important. The new head of the Logistics Service, while not an insatiable veteran bureaucrat, understands the difference between acquaintances and strangers. With Ren Yijiang's extensive network of contacts that are no different from lubricating oil, plus more than a dozen fresh pheasants, hares, and voles from outside the city, the new director, who has always been accustomed to pushing with a smiling face, can no longer wipe off his face, and after pouring several large cups of special "Wuliangye" in a row, he finally confided the truth to Su Hao with drunkenness.

"Brother, it's not that I don't help you, it's that this matter is really troublesome. The two types of equipment you want are produced in very small quantities, and according to the relevant regulations, priority must be given to the supply of front-line combat units. Last month, the Wanxian base accepted the 399 Infantry Division, which had returned from the Eastern Front to rest and recuperate, and they had just replenished a batch of new soldiers, and there was still a 4.6 percent shortage of new weapons. If you satisfy them, you will not be satisfied, and the Eleventh Independent Force will have to wait a little longer."

"Shortfall of 4.6%?"

This number surprised Su Hao a little.

He poured wine for the new chief and said rather strangely: "The 399th Infantry Division has been resting since last month. It stands to reason that their weapons and equipment should be uniformly provoked by the Eastern Front Headquarters, how can it be ......"

"The front-line headquarters is only responsible for maintaining the basic aggregate, and part of the shortfall is usually replenished by the rest base where it is located.

The new director chewed a piece of braised rabbit meat and said unhurriedly: "Under normal circumstances, it is not surprising that the level of replenishment of individual weapons should reach 120 or 150 percent, or even 200 or 300 percent. The attrition rate of these weapons is very large, and now there is no artillery support in the operation, and those guys in the air force don't know what they are doing, and they are always nowhere to be seen. In such cases, the level of attrition of light weapons and ammunition is at least four to five times more than the average probability. The base city has a limited number of heavy-duty workshops, and the new production line will not be available until next month. I won't hide it from you, your batch of equipment will have to be pushed back a little bit, at least next month, before it can be replenished by 50%. ”

Although he had expected this outcome, Su Hao was still surprised by the words of the new director.

He was a little puzzled: "Does 39 Pei have to complete the supply at the Wanxian base?" I have read the relevant supplementary regulations, they belong to the first class troops, and they can completely replenish the missing soldiers, and then return to the front headquarters to receive the corresponding weapon quota. The logistics department of the group army does not need to bear all the supply pressure in this regard, in fact, ......"

"No, no, no, it's not as simple as you think."

The new director put down his chopsticks, looked at Su Hao with sympathy, hugged his shoulder behind him, raised his right index finger to the ceiling, lowered his voice, and said mysteriously: "The main thing is that someone is pressing you above." ”

"Who?"

"Chief of Staff Chen Yanlin."

The new chief finally told the truth: "He ordered me to delay the supply of the 11th Independent Army as much as possible. Of course, not 100% refusal, but to find ways to delay under various pretexts. Even when supplies are sufficient, priority must be given to replenishing other units. "The Eleventh Separate Army must be at the bottom of the list," were his exact words. You know that there are many subordinate units of the 71 Group, and if they come one by one, no matter how many materials they have, they will be carved up. It's not like it used to be, and now it's lacking everything. ”

Stunned, shocked, angry......

After a short conflict of thoughts, Su Hao took out a stack of blue coins from his pocket and stuffed them into the hands of the new director. The latter pushed the money back and said seriously: "Don't do this, you are also fighting with your heads raised." Lieutenant Colonel Su, I've heard something about you, no matter which side you're on, you've always had a real deal with the monsters outside the city. Do me a favor β€”β€”β€”β€” kill as many as you can, preferably by killing them completely. ”

The new commissioner stared at the wine glass, his eyes welling with a faint sadness and pain.

"My father failed the physical fitness test. He is "Category B". Trained at the Xijing base! At that time, I sold everything in the house and left him enough money and a long letter. In the letter, I told him not to think too much, to try to spend all the money, and to live happily. I don't know if he understood the meaning of the letter. At that time, the address I left for correspondence was here. After the training, I found dozens of letters he wrote to me in the base city, along with a remittance slip attached. The numbers above are the ...... I left him at the beginning."

Su Hao did not comment on the man's story. From the future world to the present, Su Hao has seen and heard too many similar stories.

At the moment, he can only act as a silent listener.

The new commissioner slowly sipped the spirits, as if talking to himself.

"The materials that come out of the production workshop every month are almost fixed. Normally, they are stored in warehouses south of the military control zone. Although the Eleventh Independent Force is at the end of the sequence on the supply table, no one can deny and refuse to replenish you. Coupled with the commander's own warrant, as long as you act fast enough to get it before the rest of the units, no one can find fault with it. Hehe...... This is completely in line with the rules, but it is not very reasonable. ”

Without waiting for Su Hao to answer, the slightly drunk new director added another sentence.

"Remember we didn't meet tonight, we didn't eat together. That's it. ”

The process of receiving the new equipment was much smoother than Su Hao expected.

When Su Hao reported his name, position, and unit number, the other party just nodded slightly, handed over a register of densely packed unit names, and told him: "Find out your unit number from above, and then sign it." ”

There are no fights, no disputes, and the whole process is as simple as ordering food and paying the bill in a restaurant.

Su Hao was not a fool, he quickly figured out the reason.

If I am not mistaken, this should be a contest between Xu Renjie, commander of the group army, and Chen Yanlin, chief of staff.

Of course, contradictions and disputes will never be in plain sight. Doing so will only make outsiders feel that there is an opportunity to take advantage of it, and at the same time, it will be regarded as "fighting in a nest" by the top brass of the military department.

Otherwise, the officer on duty at the warehouse would not have given himself the full amount of supplies so easily.

However, there is nothing wrong with his movements, after all, all the procedures are in accordance with the rules, Su Hao just came earlier than others, and there was no queue, that's all.

Su Hao has never been interested in power struggles, let alone the level of Xu Renjie and Chen Yanlin.

He only cares about the specific amount of equipment, the expansion progress of the "swarm", and the "worker bees" in the 11th Independent Army.

This is a chaotic world, a world that has completely lost its fixed framework and moral norms. The politics of power has been largely weakened, and trickery and stratagem must give way to absolute strength. If you look at the comparison between the two alone, it is actually similar to the era of peace, except that because of mutated organisms and viruses, humans are forced to shrink in the area occupied by the earth's surface and curl up around each base city to continue their activities.

Unfortunately, many of the big names still maintain old stereotypes. They never face reality and are more stubborn than anyone else.

The underground part of the military control zone of the new Chengdu base city is extremely large. It is divided into different areas according to the specific use function. Among them, the service area used to receive outsiders is the most luxuriously decorated, but the protection has not weakened in the slightest.

Yuan Hao stood in the center of the platform of the fitness venue, casually looking at the more than ten sparring opponents standing around.

These men are all specially selected strong men. They are more than two meters tall, their muscles as hard as steel, and the blood vessels that bulge from under their skin are like tendons around their bodies, and they are fierce and strong enough to be like the exaggerated barbarians in the game's promotional posters.

In contrast, Yuan Hao, who also has a red upper body, looks slightly thinner. Although his height and physique are not much different from those of his opponents, he is not as burly, and his muscles are only moderately expanded, which makes him look more flexible, supple and resilient, but nowhere near the same level of strength as his opponents.

Six against one, the number of contrasts is absolutely huge.

However, the eyes of all the besiegers were invariably full of fear and timidity, their steps were obviously a little vain, and their tower-like bodies were trembling slightly.

If possible, they would prefer to turn around and run away rather than stay in this kind of place and pounce on Yuan Hao to fight hard.

Run away......

After all, this is just a fantasy in my mindβ€”β€”β€”β€” this venue is a special area, with high-power laser generators in the corners and ceilings, and as many as twenty-four electronic alarms in the lower part of the surrounding walls. This thing is actually a computer-controlled weapon platform. Six 20 mm electronically controlled cannons were installed on each platform, which could fire at the interior of the stadium from all directions.

The identities of the six brawny men in charge of sparring were all entered into the computer. Without Yuan Hao's permission, the computer will not be unlocked. The various weapons set up in the gym were already aimed at these people, and thousands of bullets were immediately sprayed as soon as they left the yellow line that was used as a guard at the edge of the gym.

These strong men in charge of sparring are all prisoners who have committed serious crimes.

Viral storms have caused mass infections and deaths among humans, and the survivors who survived have gradually adapted to a chaotic world with no laws or rules. They survive by robbing and killing violently, but this brutal practice is not recognized by the base city. The prisons of the 71st Army, large and small, were almost full of people, and the so-called "reform education" was nothing more than being filled into front-line hand-to-hand combat units, or sent to research institutes to be used as experimental materials.

Such an approach would certainly be regarded as an explosive news story of extreme tyranny and inhumanity in peacetime. Now, however, there is no such thing as meanness and moral decay. The Judge Advocate General's Office never arrests people for no reason, and the inmates who are imprisoned are guilty of unforgivable felonies. buying and selling people, dismembering corpses and food, and looting military supplies...... In the simplest example, a large number of the gangsters in Base City who were implicated in the He Qun incident were arrested. Although they are civilians, they are not innocent.

The six prisoners of Yuan Hao, who were surrounded, were all reformed. They were injected with special genes and second-order enhancement potions, and received a certain degree of combat training through computer simulation, not to provide reinforcements to the front line, but to improve their abilities as actual combat sparring opponents for high-ranking officers.

Extravagance and particularity may be a stain that human society can never erase. If he just needed sparring, Yuan Hao could enter the abandoned city and find enough mutated creatures to fight. However, the problem is hereβ€”β€”β€”β€” Yuan Hao's identity is quite noble, including him, many people with similar identities feel that this is a right they should enjoy. Just as during the Great Famine, officials could buy genuine precious medicinal materials for 100 yuan, while ordinary people could only buy high-priced medicines from black-hearted manufacturers to treat their illnesses even if they spent ten times as much...... Such are the benefits that come with power and identity, and they will never give it up.

The prisoners are well aware of what the so-called "sparring" is all about. It was a very fatal business, and many of his companions had been taken away in the same name and never returned.

The stalemate made Yuan Hao feel very impatient.

He gripped the knuckles of his fingers with a frightening crackling sound, a sinister smile on his face, and looked around in a low voice.

"Come on, there are six of you, and I only have one. Win me, and you'll get out alive. ”

The last sentence was poured into the minds of all prisoners like a heart booster.

Finally, a prisoner with a particularly strong physique and fierce appearance could no longer suppress his temperament. He quickly looked to the left and right, glanced at his companion, roared angrily, and his legs suddenly exerted force, rushing towards Yuan Hao, who had a cold face, like a cannonball.

This was a signal, and the other five prisoners burst out at the same time, attacking the lethal parts of Yuan Hao's body from different directions.

There is no dead end, and Yuan Hao, who is standing in the center, will definitely die.

At least it seems.

With an evil grin on his face, he rushed back in the direction of the prisoner who pounced first, stretched out his hand as hard as a steel drill, grabbed the opponent's wrist, and pulled him over from the side. Before the prisoner who had lost his balance could react, Yuan Hao had already raised his right fist high and smashed it into the prisoner's head like a steel hammer.

The force of this punch was so great that the entire skull collapsed on the spot, like an upside-down bowl being smashed raw from the bottom and dented to the bottom. The huge force squeezed the two eyeballs out of their sockets alive and sprayed them several meters away, splashing a piece of sticky white brain with a hot temperature in the air.

The series of actions took less than two seconds.

Yuan Hao threw down the corpse that was still twitching in his hand, turned his head and flashed over another prisoner who had already pounced in front of him, raised his arm to reflexively overwhelm the other party, opened the five fingers of his left hand, and slammed into the prisoner's eyes and nostrils, with the tyranny and ferocity of an enraged wild bear, in the terrible wail, roared and broke the nose and cheekbones, and kneaded the whole face into a blur.

The air was suddenly filled with thick blood, which stimulated Yuan Hao to kill the remaining prisoners frantically with even more cruel methods.

It's not training at all, it's his game.

The fifth-order enhancers versus the second-order enhancers, although there were as many as six opponents, they were still naked slaughter

Just like a butcher who doesn't kill a pig for a long time will have itchy hands, and if he doesn't fight for a while, Yuan Hao will also feel uncomfortable and uncomfortable.

Xincheng is not Xinlanzhou, and if you enter the abandoned city without absolute security, God knows what you will encounter.

Killing people in a fitness gym has a similar effect.

From the death of the first prisoner to the tearing of the fifth prisoner in half, it took Yuan Hao less than five seconds.

He stood proudly in the middle of the field, covered in blood. Yuan Hao kept licking the plasma on the surface of his fingers, and coldly looked at the last prisoner who was shrinking on the opposite side. The guy was obviously frightened by such a ferocious fight, his legs trembled desperately, and his face was as pale as paper. Far away, Yuan Hao's enhanced hearing could still distinguish the "dede" sound of the prisoner's teeth chattering.

"Spare me, please spare me......"

The poor prisoner refused to come up. He felt like he was going crazyβ€”β€”β€”β€” he was going to die, and he was going to die standing here, the difference was that he might survive for a few more minutes, but it was meaningless.

Suddenly, he turned around abruptly and ran wildly in the direction of the gate with astonishing speed and madness.

The high-power laser generator installed in the corner of the wall reacted immediately, and a blinding white light flashed from the corresponding angle, piercing the prisoner's head on the spot, and in full view of everyone, the poor man disappeared from the neck in an instant, leaving a neat black scarf. Then, as if he had lost his balance, he took a few steps back and forth on the ground and fell hard.

"Guts idiot, I hate this weak and damn guyβ€”β€”β€”β€”"

Spat at the corpse that was still twisting and squirming on the ground, Yuan Hao walked out of the platform, and two young women in military uniforms immediately greeted him, draped the wet towel with just enough moisture on his shoulders, and wiped the blood stains on his body flexibly and quickly.

Yuan Hao walked to the chair placed on the wall and sat down, reached out and picked up the drink on the table and took a few sips, and exhaled a long breath.

"Tell me, what do you want to tell me? I hope you can hear something interesting enough from your mouth, and not waste time talking about boring content. ”
