Chapter Twenty-Six: Upgrading the Platoon Commander
After watching the group chat, Sun Meng put down his mobile phone and asked the person who reported the news.
"What are those people like?"
"There were seven people in total, six of them were equipped with rifles, the specific model was not clear, and there were two military dogs, both of which were wearing body armor and looked well equipped."
"That's right."
Sun Meng laughed and said to a few people around him: "Our business is here." ”
The person next to him hurriedly asked, "Boss Sun, what good happened?" ”
"Sanjiang Baron Song Yinghao wanted a few runaway soldiers and killed people on the Sanjiang side, but I didn't expect to come here, it's really embarrassing for them, they actually traveled 8,000 kilometers in ten days, and they really had two hits."
Among the few people around him were members of his personal guard, as well as people in Imperial Sheriff's uniforms, and even two security guards in escort company clothes.
These people were all people who survived the outbreak of the end times, ran to Sun Meng's side, and were taken in by him.
Hearing Sun Meng's words, several people hesitated.
"Boss Sun, these people have guns, it is estimated that they will not be so easy to deal with, and Song Yinghao's title is the same as yours, it is nothing if you don't give him this face."
Sun Meng waved his hand: "You don't understand, don't look at our title, but think about it, what kind of world is it now?" There are too many people who have died, no matter how high the title is, it is useless to die, our group originally had more than 200 people, and now there are more than 30 people left, and when the situation is stable in the future, can we continue to be barons? ”
The people around suddenly realized: "Yes, so many people have died, and there are too many vacancies for this title, I estimate that it is possible for the boss to be promoted to an earl in the future." ”
"Huh! The viscount has 100 percent, the earl..... Look at luck, maybe you will need someone else's help when the time comes, so I help Song Yinghao, and it can be regarded as investing in advance, after all, there is still a marquis alive on the other side of Sanjiang, and that is Song Yinghao's master. ”
Sun Meng continued: "As for those deserters, it is easy to deal with, they can run so far in ten days, they must have transportation, but now that we are guarding the intersection of the highway, can they still abandon the car and go into the wilderness?" That would be a self-defeating event, and if they wanted to go west, they would have to pass through us, and they would have to agree to any of our requests. ”
"What's more, these people are already suspected of rebels, Song Yinghao of Sanjiang alone doesn't count, but if I say it again, they will really become rebel deserters, I don't believe they are not afraid."
Saying that, Sun Meng said to the messenger: "Go and tell that Tang Zheng, let him hand over all the rifles, the pistols can be kept for him, I will give him a passage, otherwise let him go back where he came from, a deserter wanted criminal, he is not qualified to make a request, just click to kill the lord's relatives, it is enough for him to take off his military uniform." ”
"What if Tang Zheng doesn't agree?" The person who reported the news was a little worried.
"Then give him some color." Sun Meng has a fearless way.
After receiving Sun Meng's orders, his subordinates had confidence in their hearts and turned to leave.
Sun Meng looked at the people around him: "Today's luck is good, what is missing, we are short of guns here, so someone sent guns, and after taking Tang Zheng's guns, the strength of our team will go up a notch." ”
His tone was still full of arrogance and arrogance, as if the end of the world had not happened.
This is also a common state of the imperial aristocracy, for a long time, they are above the common people, and for a long time, they have developed the habit of seeing no one in their eyes.
Especially these people who survived the last days, because of the private guard, have more or less some strength.
This made the nobles feel that their opportunity had come, and that it was time for them to rise up in troubled times.
However, their biggest shortcoming is that their weapons are not good.
Although the Empire allowed nobles to have personal guards, there were strict standards for the distribution of weapons.
This kind of baron, a platoon of personal guards, the best weapon is a light machine gun, and it is also the old-fashioned kind.
Really good weapons are in the hands of the royal troops.
Therefore, after the end of the world, if they want to strengthen themselves, they are also limited by the uselessness of weapons.
Especially after the end of the world, due to the influence of acid rain and acidic substances in the air, most weapons can no longer be used.
Sun Meng's situation here is similar to that of Song Yinghao, only one well-maintained machine gun and five or six miscellaneous guns can be used.
This also includes shotguns for two security guards and a pistol for a vigilante.
The arrival of this group of deserters is undoubtedly the best opportunity.
He didn't even bother to use any calculations, so he directly put forward a request, as long as he kept the toll station, he didn't worry about Tang Zheng and them not complying.
......
The messenger returned to the toll booth and made Sun Meng's request.
At this moment, Tang Zheng almost suspected that he had heard it wrong.
He didn't expect Sun Meng to make such a request, and he didn't expect that he would be wanted by the nobles.
Although it is the end of the world now, and the nobles' wanted is not very strong, Tang Zheng still finds it a little difficult to accept.
Zhao Boxiong's father was not killed by him, why did he want himself?
These aristocrats take their identities too seriously.
With anger surging in his heart, Tang Zheng spoke: "What if I don't agree? ”
"Whoa, whoa!"
Inside the bunker above the toll booth, there was the sound of a gun bolt pulling.
The guard inside said loudly: "The surname Tang, don't know what to do, refuse the request of the nobles, the person who dares to refuse the request of our baron here has not yet been born, are you deserters tired of being crooked?" ”
Seeing the aggressive appearance of raising a gun in the bunker, Tang Zheng was angry in his heart.
But he didn't have any impulses, squinted at the bunker in front of him, and asked, "Can we take this bunker?" ”
Luo Fei and the others looked at the door-shaped building and shook their heads slightly.
"General, they are guarding in the bunker, guarding with geographical advantages, it is very difficult for a few of us alone, unless there is one more squad of troops, flanking the front and rear, but it will also cost some casualties to take it."
Tang Zheng took a deep breath: "Let's go, let's go back." ”
Watching Tang Zheng and his party retreat, the guards in the bunker laughed.
They had been aristocratic privates before, and had never had the audacity to laugh at the royal troops.
This time, it's a bull X.
......
Tang Zheng and several people returned to the Flower Hotel of Nanhu.
After coming back, Tang Zheng didn't get angry, it was just a sign of incompetence.
To deal with such people, it is necessary to retaliate with a tooth for a tooth.
"Ready, let's clean up the zombies here, even if it wastes three days, we have to collect a wave of funds, upgrade to a platoon leader, and then come and settle accounts with these people."
The warriors didn't stay long when they returned, and they prepared to set out to hunt the zombies.
Xu Jingqiu just came out after cooking lunch, and when she saw Tang Zheng and them coming back and going out again, she took the initiative to ask, "Brother Tang, why are you going?" ”
Tang Zheng glanced at Xu Jingqiu and said, "I want to collect some gold and silver, and the troops have a demand." ”
Xu Jingqiu immediately said: "This is a tourist spot, next to the service hall, there is a silverware shop, but the scale is very small, only selling some silver souvenir ornaments or something, if you can go over, you can go there to see." ”
"Silverware!"
Tang Zheng's eyes lit up instantly.
He knows that in many tourist areas, there will be some people who sell silver and jade for profit, and those tour guides will also take tourists to take the initiative to enter the store and get some commissions or something.
I just didn't expect that there would be a silverware store in one of the service areas.
Although the scale of the silverware shop here is not too large, it is also what Tang Zheng urgently needs at present.
After determining the location of the silverware shop, Tang Zheng had dinner and set off again.
Or take a detour from the wilderness until you reach the back of the service hall and climb up again.
"General, the one with an iron fence in the window should be a silversmith store."
Tang Zheng glanced inside through the window.
There are two columns on the left and right, with a total of six counters.
At this moment, most of the counters are broken and in a mess, and there are no zombies in the room.
But no one took those silver zodiac cards, silverfish pendants, silver cups and so on.
After the end of the world, everyone needed food, medicine and other materials, and these gold and silver seemed to be completely forgotten.
"Great, if it weren't for this special circumstance, I wouldn't have known there was a silverware shop here."
"In the rest of the places, the silversmith shop is in a crowded place, and it is usually impossible to get close to it, and only this kind of silversmith shop close to the wilderness can be obtained by me."
"Be gentle, don't make a fuss."
Several soldiers stepped forward, not using a hammer, but with a few found sticks to pry the iron fence.
After priing off a few screws underneath, several soldiers worked together to bend the loose iron fence to reveal a gap that could be passed.
"Get in!"
Pushing open the window, the group entered the silversmith shop.
There were occasional zombies roaming outside the window of the main entrance, but Tang Zheng and his party were not found.
Needless to say, collect as fast as you can.
Several soldiers acted together, and the silverware in the store was continuously delivered to Tang Zheng's hands.
No matter what kind of silverware it was, when it came to Tang Zheng's hands, it would be immediately converted into system funds.
[Successfully exchanged, get 3.8 gold.] 】
[Successfully exchanged, get 2.7 gold.] 】
[Successfully exchanged, get 5.5 gold.] 】
There are not too many at once, but the victory lies in the large number, and the cumulative number is close to two thousand.
After about twenty minutes, the small silversmith shop was ransacked.
Tang Zheng glanced at the system funds.
Before, he only had less than 500 gold in his hand, but now he has 5,280 gold!
With the funds in place, Tang Zheng took people out of the silverware store and chose to upgrade at the back of the store.
[Kill 100 zombies requirement, completed.] 】
[The next squad is full, completed.] 】
[Funding of one thousand, completed.] 】
[The three requirements have been met, and the promotion conditions have been met, will the general be promoted immediately?] 】
"Upgrade now."
[The upgrade is complete, congratulations to the general, unlock the platoon commander medal.] 】
[Please make a choice, the headquarters is an ordinary platoon?] Orchestration? Or a reinforced platoon? 】
"Is there any difference between the three?" Tang Zheng was also a little puzzled.
[According to the military system, the number of an ordinary platoon is 25 people, a reorganized platoon is 35 people, and a reinforced platoon is 45 people. 】
Tang Zheng did not hesitate and directly chose to strengthen the platoon.
Now that the platoon commander has just been promoted, it is estimated that it is still far away to upgrade the company commander in the future, and the more people there are, the better.
[Determine the choice, the headquarters is a reinforced platoon, the maximum number of people is 45 people, and the upgrade is complete!] 】
[The platoon commander's purchase permission has been unlocked, please check it out with the general!] 】
