Chapter 103: Harvest
It is unknown how many people are still alive and how many have died after the disaster.
With the loss of almost all buildings and facilities in space and on the surface, the entire wasteland can be described as a giant tomb.
There are still a few remnants of the underground structure, where they are, whether there are people in them, no one can give a reliable answer.
The remnants of the New Republic are inside, like antiques that have been dug up continuously, although they are buried on the same day, but the time when they are dug out of the ground may differ by days, years, or even decades.
And all the aborigines of the hill camp are just such a group of "old antiques". They unearthed about fourteen years ago, when a scavenger who had been hit by mistake touched the emergency refuge switch that had been breached, and fell asleep without knowing it, and was awakened without knowing it.
When they reopened their eyes and came to the ground, they found that the world had changed.
Prosperity and power have vanished, civilization and order have become a thing of the past, and only the ruins and desolations remain, and the compatriots who want to make them a reserve of food at all times.
And due to the improper way of awakening, the team of 5,000 people frozen in the shelter, including more than 4,000 artificial special soldiers and hundreds of scientific research assistants who were about to be assigned to various places, finally survived less than 1,500 people, and after 14 years, this number has plummeted to more than 900.
So far, there are only 863 yellow-faced and skinny artificial special soldiers, and 76 scientific researchers who have survived with great difficulty.
Perhaps, according to this development, in another three or four years, there may be no one left in this land, as if they never existed.
Just thinking about it, Shi Jing felt that this way of dying was extremely terrifying.
If she could, she still wanted to live as long as possible, and although it should not be possible to win the highest award for scientific research in the Republic of China for the rest of her life, it was okay to have the opportunity to understand the reasons for the great changes in the world.
In the cold wind, she pulled the collar of her thin clothes, pushed the short hair floating in front of her eyes to her ears, and looked at the solemn and neat team in the darkness calmly, showing a hint of happiness on her face.
Although the companions who came out for various reasons had various situations, they still helped them in the dark.
Just as her thoughts drifted, the award began.
"Start awarding!"
With the announcement, Shen Sen stretched out his hand, took out a stamped medal on the square iron plate held by the guard, walked to the position of the first person on the left, and solemnly clasped it on his chest.
"Congratulations!"
"Thank you, sir!"
The first person was Zhang Ting, who tried his best to control his joy and excitement and saluted Shen Sen, but when Shen Sen stretched out his hand to shake hands with him at the next moment, the fanaticism and reverence on Zhang Ting's face could no longer be suppressed, and at this moment he felt that his life had never been so glorious as this moment.
This book is made up of [], read the book and receive a cash red envelope!
Not only him, but basically every soldier who stood out and received this honor from Shen Sen felt that they had reached the pinnacle of their lives today.
Although everyone had told themselves before starting that they must show their best in front of their most admired chief, when Shen Sen actually walked in front of them, everyone trembled, trembling as they watched as their chief bestowed them with honors, and then shook hands.
Even starting from the third person, Li Xin, as if he was infected, everyone was in the cold wind, with red eyes, trying their best to keep their tears from falling.
Because they remembered that the commander had told them that real soldiers had always shed only blood and no tears.
This scene was both funny and funny, but when everyone present saw it, none of them laughed, but the atmosphere became more and more solemn, and they felt that their rotten hearts, which had become gradually numb, seemed to have been touched in a place, and wished that one of the thirty people standing at the front was themselves.
Sour, really sour!
Envy is also real envy!
Xiao Liuzi, a young corporal wearing a helmet and standing upright in the crowd, looked at the captain who had always prided himself on disliking shape, and his eyes were red at this moment, and he cut lightly.
"You are like this, you really don't look like an officer, you can take pictures of your embarrassment without equipment, and when I award the medal in the future, I will let you see my demeanor!"
Thinking of this, he looked at the newcomer chief who was like a bright star in the night, and his eyes couldn't help but show a look of expectation.
After a long time, when the last soldier finished awarding the medal, Shen Sen walked straight to the middle of the team, clenched his fist heavily to the thirty soldiers who were lucky enough to obtain the first batch of mechas, and slapped it on his left chest, completing the last procedure.
"Loyalty!"
In an instant, the frenzied shouts were like a landslide and tsunami!
"Loyalty!"
"Loyalty!"
"Loyalty!"
The high-pitched and passionate cheers resounded through the mountains and rivers in the dark night, and the snow on the shaking mountains shook slightly.
The sense of honor is something that cannot be seen or touched, but human beings have always pursued it throughout their lives, and even paid for it with their lives.
When it can be filled, it can be said that the people of the wasteland need it more than before, they need a new meaning, a new purpose.
Shen Sen understood this feeling, because to some extent, he was also pursuing honor, but his honor might only be given to him after the universe changed color.
After a full three or four minutes, Shen Sen waved his hand to stop the long-lasting cheers and issued a new order to the more than 1,000 people present.
"Silence, all of them!"
"After disbanding, straighten out your equipment and prepare to leave in half an hour!"
After the order was given, the gathered teams quickly separated, began to move according to the arrangements of their respective commanders, and began to pack their bags in an orderly manner.
In order to facilitate management in a short period of time, Shen Sen did not interrupt the team, but asked Captain Zhou to continue to be in charge of the command of the hill camp for the time being, and waited until he returned to the camp to prepare to mix the team.
In this way, the party that needs to pack things is mainly the team of the hill camp, and they have a lot of things, and it takes a little time to pick and choose.
From the departure of the camp to the annexation of the hill camp without danger, Shen Sen spent a total of five days. The happy thing is that the first thirty mech soldiers have been selected, and on top of that, the hill camp has brought him a much bigger surprise than he imagined.
There are more than 900 people in the hill camp, including 863 artificial special soldiers who have been trained in high-standard military skills, and 76 scientific research experts in various fields of the artificial soldier training program.
It can be said that what Shen Sen wanted at the beginning was just a few hundred people gathered together, but he didn't expect that it would be like a lottery, and almost all of them were elites.
First of all, these more than 800 artificial special soldiers are all "perfect" human beings who have been cultivated through complex and rigorous genetic engineering and thousands of selections, and basically every one of them belongs to the best among human beings.
Whether it is physical fitness or thinking logic, it surpasses the human beings who have been randomly matched by nature.
If you put them on the earth in their previous lives, they are basically the king of soldiers among the special forces kings with a graduate level, and they are the kind that can fight ten.
As for the training they received, not to mention, more than ten years of military training have carved every skill into their bones, and it can be said that any one of them is the most standard perfect soldier.
What's more, they have received general training in mecha piloting techniques, as long as they go out to familiarize themselves with it for a period of time and recover, it is estimated that it will not take long to drive the mecha directly to the battlefield, and it is the kind that has tactical cooperation.
In addition, due to the fact that they were undergoing military training when they were buried in underground shelters, they were able to retain some of their equipment.
Thirteen years later, when Captain Zhou Shan reported to Shen Sen, the rest still frightened him.
There are 48 electromagnetic twin machine guns, 2,300 electromagnetic rifles of various types, 20 single-person energy missile launchers, 16 hummingbird detection drones, and 6 Pioneer assault vehicles.
These are only in good condition now, in addition to a large number of "rags" that cannot be repaired due to various malfunctions and damage, thrown in the cave warehouse, no one cares.
It's all good stuff, the only problem is that the wasteland that has lost its industrial base and subsequent supplies can't be maintained by the average scavenger camp, let alone used at high frequency.
Zhou Shan brought these things out, and it didn't take long for them to lie down because of energy and supply problems, and now there are basically only a few rifles left and a little bullet and energy battery to continue their lives.
Even the combat uniforms they wore were now in a half-dead state, and there was not enough energy to use, and the combat uniforms were only left with the function of keeping warm and covering the body.
The tactical helmet attached to the combat uniform can be used in the daylight, and it is at most an ornament in the cold winter.
However, now they are all under Shen Sen.
As long as it falls into his hands, even if some of them can't move now, one day, they will move, and in the thousands.
The things left behind are precious, but what Shen Sen values most is the technology contained in them, as long as they are clear and clear, one day the production line of these weapons and equipment will reappear in this world.
Technology is the most valuable, and the people who create it are the most important thing.
In addition to the ones just mentioned, there are seventy-six scientific research experts in various fields comparable to the existence of giant pandas.
According to Zhou Shan, there used to be more than 100 people, but in the past few years, due to various reasons, only 76 remained.
Most of them are scholars working around the artificial special soldier project, half of them are experts in biology, and a few are experts at the intersection of medicine and science and engineering.
Faced with this harvest, Shen Sen knew for the first time what it was like to be full.
