But no matter how you pretend it, there is one thing that can't be pretended, and that is reaction speed. Everyone, along with the soldiers and coachmen, was divided into almost three groups. The first group was the unhesitating faction represented by the soldiers and Hong Tao's group.

When they heard the gunshots, they reacted almost instinctively, not looking for where the gunshots were coming from, and the first action was to find cover, and only then to find guns and give warnings to the people around them.

The second group was relatively large, such as Wang Gang and some of the coachmen, who had an obvious stunned stage after hearing the gunshots, but it was very short, and they could react immediately, and then go to find a gun and then a cover.

The third group was the largest and included most of the drivers. The reactions of these people after hearing the gunshots were varied, some of them craned their necks and searched around, some of them covered their heads and climbed into the carriage, and some of them ran under the road. Some people can remember to take a gun, and some people simply forget about it, and the chaos is so lively.

"Don't panic, don't panic, it's our people! Pull the carriage and don't let the horses start! ”

Before all these headless flies could find suitable cover and hide, the squad leader who led the team put down his binoculars and stood out from the back of the carriage, clasped his hands to his lips and shouted in circles.

At this time, the road is already a bit chaotic, not only people but also horses. Many horses may not have been trained in this way, and the guns are not too loud, but the panic of the people seriously affects them, so the people shout and neigh.

"Brother Mouse, do you see that?" The place where the stupid pig hid was safer than Hong Tao, he got under the car and hid between the two wheels. In order to fear that the horses would be frightened, the cart was pulled away, and the wheels were pushed to death with triangular wooden blocks.

"In the village about 2,000 meters in front of the right...... Hong Tao's first action after getting out of the car was to take out his binoculars, half-squat, and search the approximate direction of the gun through the gap between the carriage and the horse's buttocks.

This location is very particular and is a great spot to hide from enemy snipers. Why? Because the horse's tail will constantly swing back and forth, it seriously interferes with the accuracy of long-distance snooping, making it difficult to judge whether there is activity or not.

Similar to the position chosen by Hong Tao, Zhang Ke also hid his body behind the front wheel, his head was exposed behind the horse's buttocks, and he was holding a telescope and touching it blindly. But he has one thing that is not as good as Hong Tao, eyes! He has been short-sighted since he was a child, and when he grew up, his degree did not decrease and increased, and he didn't see anything for a long time.

"Chief of Staff, Chief of Staff, got in touch...... It's a company of the 8th Regiment of the 3rd Brigade stationed at the airport, and they're cleaning up zombies from nearby villages! "But people are officials, and there are subordinates who can call them. No, in less than two minutes, the soldiers of the Air Service Regiment with the radio on their backs solved the problem.

In less than fifteen minutes, three horses galloped from the south, crossed the dozens of carriages in front of them, and stopped in front of the black carriage of the General Staff. An officer jumped off his horse and gave a military salute to Zhang Ke, who had already changed into a military uniform.

"Company Commander Zhang, are there still zombies near the airport that haven't been cleaned up?" Zhang Ke does not always show people with a smiling face, and he can also put on a straight face and pretend to be majestic when he is in the unit and at work. Now he was very serious, with his hands behind his back.

“…… In the past six months, the main thing is to clean up Minggang Town in the southwest of the airport, there are more than 100,000 people in the local area, as well as Xinyang Iron and Steel Plant and many supporting plants, plus the maintenance of the Huaihe Bridge, our troops are a little insufficient! ”

Company Commander Zhang is much older than Zhang Ke, he looks about 40 years old, he is not humble or arrogant when he speaks, and there is no flattery or panic on his face.

"Oh...... So your cleanup today is just for us...... Has the area been cleaned up? But in Zhang Ke's ears, most of these words are nonsense and lies.

The staff department has a work report on each base every week, just in time for him, the deputy chief of staff, who is very concerned about this kind of information, and he has done his homework for more than half a month before coming, so he can't say that he has mastered all the details, and he can also understand a lot of specific work progress, such as cleaning up zombies.

According to the report, the 7th Regiment of the 3rd Brigade was stationed at the Minggang Airport, plus an engineer regiment of the Air Force. It has been half a year since the two regiments arrived here, and they have been cleaned up one after another, and they have also replenished ammunition during the Spring Festival, not to mention 100,000 zombies, and another 100,000 should be gone, on average, each person has less than one zombie per day.

But he didn't start questioning right away, and he didn't easily blame others for their work until they fully understood the situation, which was taught from an early age. It's not that I'm afraid of being embarrassed by saying the wrong thing, but it's easy to wronged people by doing so. You said you were happy, patted your ass and left, and the officers stationed here might have to take responsibility.

In addition, after so many years in the coalition government, he knows how to see through the world without explaining it. He is not a real commander, his high rank is useless, and he meddles in other people's work casually, especially pointing fingers and picking and choosing, which not only causes annoyance but also hatred.

Yes, let alone the company commander, even if the brigade commander of the third brigade comes, he has to be polite when he sees himself. But being polite on the surface and scolding in the heart will not be of any benefit to future work. In the final analysis, when I came to inspect the front-line work, I had to rely on the cooperation of the local officers to go smoothly.

"Report to the Chief of Staff, we were just transferred from Xuchang ten days ago, and we don't know the specific arrangements!" Company Commander Zhang's answer was still so concise and to the point, without any delay, which meant that he didn't say anything.

"Do you know where the convoy is stationed?" Sure enough, Zhang Ke was secretly glad that he didn't rashly accuse just now. They are not garrisons here at all, but troops that cooperate with expeditionary operations, and it is both reasonable and reasonable to ask three questions.

"Report to the chief of staff, I have sent someone to inform the regiment commander, he is on his way to come, he should ......be there soon" Company Commander Zhang still didn't say anything, his mouth was really strict enough.

"Nacheng, you go get busy, we'll wait here. Tell everyone to pay attention to safety, do a good job of investigation, and don't rush for speed! Seeing this, Zhang Ke didn't plan to ask, so he gave a few words of advice without saltiness, and ended the conversation with a casual salute.

There are 5 brigades of the standing army of the alliance with a total of 13 regiments, and one brigade is stationed in Chang'an and Changchun, but it is not yet in formation, and there are only 2 regiments. A full-fledged brigade was stationed in the capital and Jinmen Port, and the remaining two brigades were basically in the south, and a small number were distributed along the roads and railways, as well as in key factories, power plants, reservoirs, and other places.

Wang Ying'an, the commander of the Third Brigade, is an old acquaintance who joined the rescue team when he was a veteran, and this brigade commander who was a chef is very brave in battle, and he usually pays close attention to training, but his personal reputation is very average, and he is more greedy for pleasure.

In particular, he was very close to Zhang Tao, deputy minister of the Ministry of Armed Forces in charge of the army, and Zhang Tao was a clear supporter of the reformers, so he did not move around with them very much.

Human affection is a thing, if it is not maintained for a long time, it will be indifferent, and if it is different, it will become an enemy. Now that the two of them meet, they can't talk about each other, and they don't have anything to talk about, just nodding and smiling.

"Chief of Staff, it's the Air Force's Type 2000 infantry combat vehicle...... Company Commander Zhang had just walked for less than twenty minutes when there was movement on the south side of the highway. But this time it was not a team of horses, but two armored vehicles. The soldiers of the air service regiment stood on the carriage and looked at it with binoculars, and immediately gave the specific model number, and also distinguished the friend and foe.

"Let's go to the front to greet ......" Zhang Ke looked at the drivers who were staring at the front and back, left and right, and decided to leave the convoy first, some things are better not to say in front of the people.

"Chief of Staff, Yang Ming, commander of the 8th Regiment of the 3rd Brigade, Zhao Baoyi, commander of the 1st Battalion, and Jiang Ping, commander of the 2nd Battalion, report to you!" The two infantry chariots drove closer, and Zhang Ke's carriage also happened to come to the front of the line, and three officers walked out of the first infantry chariot and stepped forward to salute.

"Oh, Commander Yang, the last time we met was in Beidaying, I still haven't seen fat after nearly two years of absence, how is my body?"

In the face of the three officers, who were all older than him, Zhang Ke had no fear, he had long been accustomed to working with various uncles and uncles, and he was also very comfortable with it. The Lala who knows each other is homely, and those who don't know each other can talk about their superiors, and there are so many people in total, and they can always find someone who is familiar to both parties.

In recent days, there have been a lot of epidemics near my home, and if I don't update one day, I will be taken away for quarantine, which is force majeure!
