The battle was uninterrupted, and the sharp blade of the axe split the dog-man in half, the neatly cut edges smoother than a scalpel.

Su Hao strode over, stretched his somewhat sour body, looked at the humanoid corpse lying on the ground and kept twitching, bent down, took the silver bone from it, and grabbed the dogman's broken head to look at it, still facing the side in disappointment.

"It's bad luck, this guy hasn't produced a hedron in his head yet. No wonder he was so stupid, he didn't know how to escape, and he had to bump into it stupidly. It's no wonder that if they're smart enough, it's us who are unlucky......"

Gao Liquan grabbed a rag scattered on the ground, wiped the blood on the axe vigorously, admired it, and asked with doubts: "At such a distance, can you still aim so accurately...... How exactly do you do that? ”

Su Hao smiled and said: "Actually, it's very simple, although the eyes are easily misled by light and shadows, and have the illusion of actual objects and distances, as long as they are supplemented by consciousness fluctuations, they can firmly lock the position of the other party." Pay attention to the speed at which they travel and the pace of their running, and it will not be difficult to seize the moment to kill them with one hit. It's like hitting a fly with a slapstick. It may be a little difficult to get used to at first, but it will become easy and easy to contact a few times. ”

Gao Liquan nodded silently.

Everyone is a strong person, and what Su Hao just said is actually very easy to understand. However, saying it from someone else's mouth is not the same thing as actually mastering it yourself. What's more, this kind of skill can only be comprehended from actual combat. From this, you can imagine what kind of tragic battle Su Hao has experienced?

Looking at the brand-new brigadier badge on Su Hao's shoulder, Gao Liquan only felt an unusual emotion in his heart

These days, he has heard many rumors about Su Hao———— the army's unique "all-excellent" actual combat assessment results, the special understanding of mutant creatures, and various convincing achievements...... The most surprising thing is that Su Hao is actually an official researcher of the Academy of Sciences. In the eyes of many soldiers and junior officers, this is simply a combination of a scholar and a warrior.

Because of this, Gao Liquan felt that it was a wise decision for him to choose to follow Su Hao. Even if you go back in time and return to the moment you met on the road, you will still make the same choice.

He rose step by step from a civilian to a general. The tactics that he was familiar with were all proposed by Su Hao first. Being familiar with mutant creatures is an advantage that others cannot match. This means that knowing the weaknesses of the monsters can be eliminated more effectively and faster.

All this is an advantage that the generals who sit in the office and give orders cannot compare with. With such a person, at least he will not die inexplicably, let alone be discarded like garbage.

Su Hao's methods of dealing with the lurkers of the Eleventh Independent Force were very covert. No one noticed, and no one found, the bodies that had been executed en masse in the underground base. Including Gao Liquan, they only saw the tacit cooperation between the "worker bee" and Su Hao, the intimate attitude, and the fact that they believed in each other...... For soldiers who have just experienced defeat and survived the battlefield, these things are precious and cannot be replaced by any material thing.

Coupled with the minutes of the meeting of the military department disseminated by Su Hao through the public channel, people no longer believed the orders issued by the military department. Even in the neighboring theater of operations, many officers and men questioned the military headquarters.

Glancing at the direction of Xinnanyang, where dense smoke was rising, Gao Liquan retracted his gaze, shifted to Su Hao, and asked seriously: "Do you have any plans for the future?" ”

"There is no detailed planning for the time being. But in general, it can be summed up in two things. ”

Su Hao sorted out the equipment on his body, and said casually as he took a step: "First of all, get rid of those monsters as much as possible." Secondly, live well. ”

These words sound empty, but they are the basis for solving all problems.

In a few minutes, the two men had already caught up with the guard convoy.

Looking at the highway full of vehicles and people, Gao Liquan suddenly had another idea.

"General, where are you going to take us?"

Su Hao pondered for a moment and said a place name that was both unfamiliar and familiar to Gao Liquan.

"Guiyang".

Yuan Zhicheng stood in front of the huge electronic analog stereogram, watching the live situation of the Xinnanyang battlefield transmitted back by the early warning plane, and was silent. All kinds of light reflected off his face from the platform, creating a daunting shadow on the surface of the layers of wrinkles and puffy skin.

This city, which Zhang Shengfei had painstakingly managed for a long time, finally fell.

On the three-dimensional screen, hideous mutated creatures continue to pour into the city. Whether it is the streets inside the city or the wilderness outside the city, there are explosions everywhere, and dazzling fires and smoke are constantly rising, as if you can smell the smoke and blood in the air from a long distance.

Mines and bombs do not have a large blast range, but the lethality of scattered metal fragments is still strong. Even if he retreated, Su Hao did not use weapons in violation of regulations. Because he wasn't sure if doing so would lead to some kind of unknowable and terrible consequences.

Sparks kept coming out of the walls and the windows of the buildings, and it was the defenders and civilians who were struggling to resist. No matter what they do, mutated creatures will soon be able to take over the city. The Battle of Hefei has ended, no reinforcements will come, and communication with Xinnanyang has been cut off. Those who remain will be killed in battle and become corpses

Yuan Zhicheng has never had any interest in things that have become a foregone conclusion. His gaze quickly shifted to the south of the city, and as his fingers typed on the keyboard, the three-dimensional map switched to the highway connecting to the southwest.

The whole road was crowded with people and cars, and the speed of movement was simply slower than that of a snail. Under the monitoring of the AWACS aircraft, some civilians began to fight with each other, and the cause of the conflict seemed to be food, but this was not important, and it was not Yuan Zhicheng's concern.

According to the relevant agreements before the outbreak of the virus, the air force was divided into various regions and placed under the jurisdiction of different theaters. Since most of the military forces are concentrated in the north, the military strength in the south is naturally weak, and the air monitoring of the new Nanyang and Hefei battlefields is not so strict.

Since last week, the military department has been ordering the Xincheng base to send early warning planes to monitor the highway south of Xinnanyang and report the movements of the 11th Independent Unit in a timely manner.

However, Xu Renjie, an old mongrel, is simply a violation of yang and yin. Instead of outright refusing orders, he repeatedly delayed with aircraft maintenance, thick fog over the airport, and lack of visibility. It was not until the early hours of this morning that an old reconnaissance plane was sent in tow.

The comparison of the functions of the old reconnaissance aircraft and the early warning aircraft is fundamentally different. Not to mention the short flight time, it is not possible to conduct a detailed and comprehensive information search on the ground, and even the on-board cameras are more than ten years old, and the images transmitted back are very blurry, there is no terrain monitoring data, and there are no detailed analysis reports of people and vehicles. Apart from a few vague coordinates, there is nothing superfluous.

Speaking of which, Yuan Zhicheng still admires Xu Renjie a little———— that old bastard still keeps such an old antique. Yes, that old reconnaissance aircraft belongs to the type that should have been phased out a long time ago, fully in line with the concept of "antique". If it had known that the attitude of the new Chengdu side in Ludao was so perfunctory, the military headquarters would have mobilized early warning planes from other bases to conduct comprehensive monitoring of the movements of Su Hao's troops. However, it was too late, and Xu Renjie's attitude towards accepting the order was very resolute, but he carried it out very slowly, wasting time in vain...... Now, Su Hao's troops and the refugee group have entered the territory of Guizhou. Judging from the direction of travel, their destination is likely to be the Guiyang area.

Yuan Zhicheng has been paying attention to Su Hao. This sudden rise of young man gave him too many surprises and shocks. In terms of attitude towards Su Hao, Yuan Zhicheng's thoughts are actually similar to Zhao Zhikai's, and they all feel that Su Hao's appearance is not quite in line with common sense. Such an outstanding talent is not an individual cultivated by the Academy of Sciences, the Military Department, the Hao Consortium, or a large group, but just ordinary people.

This is obviously not logical, but Su Hao's own files and experience can't find any fault.

The military department really believes in Xu Renjie too much.

Or should it be said that it is the rigid and rigid damn regulations of the military department that have caused today's difficult situation.

The delay in Xincheng has caused a huge gap in the air force's information collection of Su Hao's troops. From the beginning of the Hefei Campaign to the rout of the front line and the complete collapse of the 3rd Southeast Theater, the 11th Independent Army stationed in Xinnanyang was in a state of unsupervised. No one knows what happened to Su Hao during that time. Perhaps, he has already dismantled the new Nanyang base and loaded all the valuables and transported them away

This thought only flashed in Yuan Zhicheng's mind. Immediately, he vetoed it.

What are you kidding, it's only a few days before and after, and you want to demolish a base?

Construction is difficult, and dismantling is equally not simple.

This involves a series of issues such as personnel allocation, vehicle transportation, road control, and area selection. Before his death, Zhang Shengfei handed over the computer code of the new Nanyang base city to Su Hao, and this matter was made public at the meeting of the military department. But even then, there were simply not enough people and vehicles to complete the relocation. Even if it has tens of thousands of trucks, it can only transport a small part of the new Nanyang base. Of course, Su Hao can choose the most valuable and important core components. But what about people and road arrangements? Since the outbreak of the virus, the road traffic in the whole world has been completely paralyzed, and there is no speed of transportation without sending personnel and heavy machinery to clear the obstacles along the way in advance.

From the beginning of the campaign to the collapse of the war zone, there were only a few days before and after. Yuan Zhicheng asked himself, even if it was him, with the strength and personnel advantages of the Yuan family, he would not be able to do it.

Time is the biggest problem. Transporting those supplies as quickly as possible requires close cooperation between various departments, and there must be no mistakes, involving tens of thousands, if not more. If it is a few hundred or thousands of people, it is easy to say, but when there are many people, the problem becomes complicated. Anything else is left to chance, and daily food consumption and supplies are a problem. In the event of an accident, the entire transport line is immediately interrupted. If that's the case, even Xu Renjie can't help Su Hao hide it.

However, thinking of Su Hao's performance at the video conference of the military department, Yuan Zhicheng's slightly stretched brows furrowed again, and he shook slowly and imperceptibly.

Irritating the deputy chairman of the military department with harsh and cold words is absolutely deliberate.

Aside from the fact that the idiot was almost not pissed off, the reason why Su Hao made such a move at that time must have a purpose.

What was he thinking?

Self-inflatement?

Or is it through the situation of the public meeting to gain the understanding of ordinary officers and soldiers?

Either way, Yuan Zhicheng felt stupid.

Self-improvement is useful. Without a military rank promotion order issued by the military department, no one can increase the rank without authorization. Even if you have the talent to become a general, without a document from the military department, you will always be a soldier.

As for gaining the recognition of other officers and soldiers, it is even more ridiculous.

This is not peacetime, and without the media and the Internet, things like unconventionality and self-promotion can't have a shocking effect. Only half of humanity on Earth is dead, and the rest of the people have to struggle for food and survival, who cares if hell is good or evil? Even if someone's whole family is raped and insulted and then thrown into the wilderness, it will not attract the slightest public attention.

Of course, soldiers belong to a relatively special group, and Su Hao's imposing words are easy to resonate. But what about resonance? Could it be that they will break away from the current troop establishment and take the initiative to take refuge under your Su Hao? What kind of friendship between comrades-in-arms, friends of life and death worthy of relying on each other, is not bullshit in front of a can. This is not an unfounded speculation, except for retreating from the front line and retreating along the road to New Nanyang, which happened to be received by Su Hao, there are no more people to join the Eleventh Independent Army. Even those who have already arrived in Xinnanyang have some chosen to leave.

Yuan Zhicheng didn't understand, could this be Su Hao's purpose?

Not quite like ...... According to Su Hao's past performance, he is a very smart and calculating guy. At the cost of offending the military department, and possibly even killing a vice chairman of the military department, only a few thousand officers and men supported him were supported, and this was obviously an unequal exchange. What's more, these people are not of much value to him. Instead of gathering a group of routs, recruit from among the civilian population, who are much more loyal and cohesive. But for what, he still has to do this?

Just as Yuan Zhicheng was contemplating, the red communication light on the right side of the three-dimensional screen suddenly lit up. Immediately, a young and beautiful female officer appeared on the screen.

It was Yuan Zhicheng's personal secretary, and her voice was sweet and gentle: "General, Major Sibo has come, and he is outside." ”

Yuan Zhicheng nodded, and casually pressed the pass button: "Let him in." ”

Sibo's steps were very light, and his pupils had the restlessness and restlessness peculiar to young people, but his expression was extraordinarily quiet.

Compared to the last time Su Hao met, he had changed to a new set of major epaulettes.

"Here, look at this."

In front of Sibo, Yuan Zhicheng behaved extremely generously and gently, without the usual majesty and fierceness, and he was a kind elder.

Si Bo slightly bowed, with due etiquette, and walked to the stereoscopic screen. He looked at the base city that had just switched to the base city that had been captured by mutated creatures, and asked suspiciously, "This is Xinnanyang?" ”

Yuan Zhicheng casually "hmm", and then switched the stereoscopic image to the highway leading to the southwest.

"Zhang Shengfei left us with a mess. As the last person left behind, Su Hao obviously didn't have the consciousness to help Zhang Shengfei wipe his ass. He gave up all this and left with his men and equipment. ”

Sibo smiled faintly: "Is it just leaving?" Hehe, I don't think so. ”

Yuan Zhicheng stood still and looked at him: "Tell me your opinion." ”

"Su Hao is a very scheming guy. I carefully studied all his movements after arriving in the 3rd Theater of Operations in the Southeast. ”

Sibo did not have the fear of ordinary soldiers when they faced Yuan Zhicheng, he was very flat, and his words did not have strong emotional fluctuations: "Since the Battle of Lujiang, he has been fighting steadily. We all know that the Battle of Hefei is actually a copy of the Battle of Lujiang. Zhang Shengfei wanted to replicate the results, but it was self-defeating. Su Hao once strongly opposed this plan. I think it is likely that it was from that time that he began to secretly brew the next series of actions. ”

Yuan Zhicheng nodded, did not speak, smiled, and gave Sibo an encouraging look.

"Since the Battle of Zhilu Dao will definitely fail, it is not surprising that Su Hao has laid out the layout in advance. In the midst of chaos, the fastest and safest way to rush supplies is by rail and air. There is no large airport at the new Nanyang base, so the possibility of air freight is naturally reduced to a minimum. I checked the military transportation timetable during that period, and a total of 500 wagons of transportation capacity were concentrated in Xinnanyang in advance. There is no doubt that this was obviously obtained by Su Hao through the upper route. But instead of using these trains for material transportation, he rushed most of the civilians in the city of New Nanyang, as well as the logistics management system of the 184th Group Army, in the event of the collapse of the Hefei front.

Yuan Zhicheng commented with a light smile: "Su Hao is very selfless, a Lei Feng-style character, isn't it."

Sibo glanced at the old man, and he knew that this kind of evaluation was just a joke, not Yuan Zhicheng's real conclusion

"It's all a disguise."

Sibo shook his head and said, "At present, all railway transportation plans are controlled by the General Administration of Military Transportation. Under full surveillance, loading and unloading locations cannot be kept private. Even if it is temporarily unloaded and then transferred by road, there are too many traces to be found. The reason why Su Hao laid out in advance was to use refugees as a cover, coupled with the cover of General Xu Renjie, commander of the 74th Group Army, so as to achieve the purpose of quietly transporting a large amount of materials without being noticed. He did it very successfully, and the whole plan worked cleverly and was closely connected. By the time the military department discovered the loophole in the aerial surveillance, he had already done a good job of hiding it, and there was no trace to follow. ”
