Ten off-road vehicles set off from Barrier 111. Qing Zhen asked Qing Yi to select ten people, in order to let them take ten different roads to ensure that news from the southwest could be accurately sent to the northwest.
At this time, the more dispersed they are, the higher the chance of success in delivering the message.
These soldiers don't know much.
They didn’t know that it was not Qing Zhen himself who was going to the Central Plains.
They don’t know the purpose of sending news to the northwest.
They didn’t even know that they might die during this trip to the northwest.
They only know that even if they die, they must pass the news of the peace talks on Wall 61 to the Northwest Army.
Perhaps it would be fair to them to hide it from them, but Qing Zhen must guard against Ling.
If these soldiers were intercepted on the way and then had their memories stolen by zero-sized nanobots, then there would be no secrets left in this plan.
So Qing Zhen must hide it from them and watch them calmly die.
After Luo Lan and Xu Hao left the Ginkgo Manor, no one was allowed to approach it, not even the soldiers of the Qing family.
There are only two people in this huge manor, Qing Zhen and Qing Yi.
It’s not that the Qing family has no one they can trust anymore, but that Qing Zhen wants to avoid any accidents.
Qing Zhen sat on the black lake and stared at the distant mountains. Qing Yi spent a long time in the kitchen and finally made two bowls of fried rice.
Qing Yi sat on the floor next to Qing Zhen with fried rice: "Second brother, my skills are too bad, so you have to make do with it."
The fried rice was a bit burnt. It seems that Qingyi has never cooked with his own hands. Qingzhen took the fried rice and smiled: "It's really embarrassing for you."
Qingyi took two bites of fried rice and went to get some wine. It wasn't that he wanted to drink, it was just that the fried rice was too unpalatable and made him choke.
Qing Yi took two sips of wine and sighed: "If those old men knew that I served their Tibetan wine with fried rice, they would be so angry that they would crawl out of the ground."
"They couldn't climb out," Qing Zhen shook his head: "My brother heard that they made me walk more than 20 kilometers on snowy roads barefoot, and he secretly scattered their ashes before the burial. So at that funeral, All the urns are actually empty."
Qing Yi: "..."
Although Qing Zhen and the others killed them, those old men were the face of the Qing family after all. , so Qingzhen still held a funeral for them.
However, Luo Lan has never been a stickler for rules. How could he watch those old men enter the Qing family's ancestral grave?
In Luo Lan’s words, how terrible is it that after their old man dies, he still has to be buried with these people?
Qing Zhen smiled: "He has always been such a vicious person, right? He has been like this since he was a child. My brother's viciousness has never changed, he has just restrained it. Since I Start being a shadow for the Qing family."
"Why restrain yourself?" Qing Yi asked curiously.
“I also asked him why, and he said carelessly at that time, if I want to seize the Qing family, I must first unite all the forces that can be united, and I cannot let everyone be afraid of me or hostile to me. ," Qing Zhen explained with a smile: "So, he and I are often regarded as a whole, so naturally he can't do anything to discredit me."
Qing Zhen continued: "But in fact, I have always wanted to. Tell him that I'm not afraid of him smearing me. I told him before that I used him as a role model but he didn't believe me, but that's what I thought in my heart."
When I was young. , Luo Lan took him to Ginkgo Mountain to steal ginkgo fruits and sell them. After selling them and exchanging money, the two of them were reluctant to buy meat because they had to exchange money for the old man's medical treatment.
So most of the time, Luo Lan would choose relatively cheaper eggs to replenish Qing Zhen’s body.
After the old man fell ill, Luo Lan had to cook for Qing Zhen and wash clothes for Qing Zhen. Luo Lan almost did all the heavy, dirty and tiring work at home alone. Dry.
The fat man who was always careless had put the responsibility of the entire family on his shoulders from the beginning.
Perhaps to others, Luo Lan is now the powerful second person in the Qing family, but to Qing Zhen, he is just his elder brother.
The bowl of egg fried rice made by Qing Yi brought back many memories in Qing Zhen, because Qing Zhen remembered that the first time Luo Lan made egg fried rice for him, it was also cooked.
But no one was sad at all at that time. Even the old man, who had always had little energy and appetite, ate a whole bowl.
At this time, a question from Qing Yi brought Qing Zhen back from his thoughts: "Second brother, do the ten soldiers who went to the northwest this time have a chance to come back alive?"
Qing Zhen thought for a long time, then sighed and shook his head.
Qing Yi looked a little sad: "Among them, there are also those who followed you to kill Ginkgo Mountain, but now they know there is danger, but they still go there without hesitation."
"Ayi," Qingzhen said, "write down all their names. If you and I are still alive after this disaster, then someone needs to commemorate them."
"Well," Qingyi Nod.
"Get some rest, you haven't slept for a long time," Qing Zhen said.
"Then I'll take a nap. If you need anything, brother, call me." Qing Yi pulled out a pistol from the holster under his ribs. He checked the yellow bullets in the magazine. Then I lay down on the marble floor with a little peace of mind and fell asleep with the pillow on my head.
There are only two people in the huge Ginkgo Manor, which makes Qingyi feel like he has returned to the time when he was young and followed Luo Lan and Qing Zhen to fight on the streets.
There are no subordinates, soldiers or troops. The eldest brother rushes in front and the second brother makes suggestions.
At that time, as now, the only people they could really rely on were them.
It wasn’t until this moment that Qing Yi finally understood that there was indeed something more powerful than power in this world.More important.
......
After ten off-road vehicles left Barrier 111, they immediately divided into ten routes and disappeared into the wilderness.
Nowadays, the southwest highway has just been built, and the road condition is excellent. Moreover, there are few people who own vehicles and travel between the various barriers, so these ten vehicles are speeding along the way.
Earlier, Luo Lan went to Fortress 178 to establish trade relations with Zhang Jinglin, so the entire northwest-southwest highway was jointly built, making it smooth all the way.
They packed all the oil drums in the trunk, so that they could drive to the 144th barrier self-sufficiently.
Based on distance calculation, the distance between barrier 111 and barrier 144 is almost 800 kilometers. If we drive at full speed, we might arrive in the middle of the night if we set out in the evening.
Everyone actually knew in their hearts that this task was not that simple, but when Qingyi asked everyone if they were willing to go, everyone said yes.
Zhang Yuge, when Qing Zhen ascended Ginkgo Mountain to mutiny, he remembered his name. The former officer even remembered that his mother was in poor health.
Zhang Yuge survived after the Qing family changed hands. He originally thought that life would return to normal, just like other ordinary soldiers.
Not long after, someone from the Qing family took his mother to the best hospital in Wall 111, and the Qing family consortium paid for all the medical expenses.
One day when Zhang Yuge went to the hospital to take care of his mother with his lunch box, he opened the ward door and saw Qing Zhen sitting next to his mother's bed.
The unreachable officer was smiling and saying to his mother: Zhang Yuge is an excellent soldier, no one is better than him, and he is the glory of the Qing army.
After that, Zhang Yuge’s mother would happily mention this to her patients every day. He believed that this was probably the happiest time for his mother.
Later, his mother passed away because of a terminal illness. Before leaving, her mother told Zhang Yuge not to let down the high expectations of his superiors.
Later on, Zhang Yuge was promoted from corporal to staff sergeant, and then from staff sergeant to lieutenant. If things like today had not happened, he might have been able to continue to advance in the army.
But Zhang Yuge feels that none of these are actually important. What is important is that you treat me as a national scholar, and I will repay you as a national scholar.
On the road, Zhang Yuge always felt as if he was being spied on while driving.
The off-road vehicle went all the way north, and just when he was about to leave the territory of the Qing family, Zhang Yuge suddenly saw more and more sparrows on the branches by the roadside, and... those sparrows were all silent looked at him.
In the night, these sparrows stand on the branches, looking like a dark and scary place.
Although sparrows in this era are huge, they will not attack you as long as you don’t attack them. Therefore, people usually don’t worry much even if they see sparrows. After all, these creatures eat. Still vegetarian.
However, at this moment, Zhang Yuge suddenly felt a sense of fear in his heart. He had never imagined that sparrows could be so terrifying.
Zhang Yuge turned on the high beam, and in an instant he saw sparrows standing on the branches on both sides of the road ahead. When the car lights shone on their eyes, a strange silver light was reflected.
"Where did so many sparrows come from?" Zhang Yuge was secretly shocked in the car.
Base 012 was attacked by sparrows before. This matter has been reported internally in the army, so Zhang Yuge's mood has slowly begun to sink.
But now is not the time to retreat. He is very clear about the mission of this trip: if he encounters the enemy, there is no need to escape, because there will be no escape. At this time, there is only one thing he needs to do, which is to help others on the road. Comrades draw firepower.
As long as one of the ten of them can send the message to the northwest, it will be the collective glory of the ten of them.
Success does not have to be mine.
Zhang Yuge looked at the black group of sparrows standing on the branches one after another, even the branches of the sycamore tree were bent down, but he no longer had fear in his heart, but instead felt a sense of courage.
Suddenly, the sparrows flew away from the branches one by one, and they slowly gathered into whirlpools in the sky, their wings as sharp as blades.
In this dangerous night, Zhang Yuge kicked the accelerator and the black off-road vehicle began to break through like a beast.
The ferocious metal machine was covered in tight muscles. What Zhang Yuge was driving was not a mass-market vehicle, but the most powerful military off-road vehicle within the Qing family.
Only people like Qing Yi, Qing Zhen, and Luo Lan can ride in this kind of car.
Although Qing Zhen knew that the people who wanted to deliver the message would die, he still wanted to leave the best life-saving tools to them. Whether they could survive or not was a matter for the soldiers. Do you want these soldiers to survive? It was his Qingzhen's business to come down.
Death is a choice that everyone has no retreat in this era, but before that, life must be full and enjoyable!
The engine roared, and the eight-cylinder turbocharged engine squeezed its potential to the extreme in an instant. Zhang Yuge in the car felt a huge force coming from the rollers of the car, and his back was tightened. Pressed tightly against the car seat.
The full-time four-wheel drive transmission system makes the off-road vehicle tires more capable of gripping the road, and the wide wheels are like the strong and powerful limbs of a beast.
Zhang Yuge started to roar excitedly in the car, and the black metal beast unexpectedly broke out from among the circling sparrows, like a destroyer in the ocean rushing out of the whirlpool!
The sparrows rushed against the windshield one by one, using their sharp beaks to try to break open the window. However, the violent pecks could only leave a small white spot on the glass.
If it were an ordinary vehicle, the glass would have been broken long ago, but these ten off-road vehicles are different. Their glass is all bulletproof.
At this time, Zhang Yuge was already focused on nothing else., he just stepped on the accelerator and ran towards the north. As for where he could go, it all depended on his fate.
The dark clouds formed by sparrows always follow closely. They no longer attack, as if they are waiting for something.
This was not in line with biological instinct. Zhang Yuge felt that there seemed to be something behind those sparrows directing them, making their actions more calculated.
Without a blind attack, the sparrow suddenly transformed into a cheetah and crawled down, waiting to deliver a fatal blow to its prey.
Although the metal beast is ferocious, there are times when it is exhausted.
Zhang Yuge glanced at the scale on the right side of the instrument panel, which represented the fuel tank. He could drive up to 200 kilometers more, and by that time the metal beast would gradually stop.
He couldn't get out of the car to refuel, so he could only sit in the car and become an island.
More than an hour later, the scale on the dashboard gradually turned red, and the black off-road vehicle gradually slowed down and parked on the side of the road.
There will be no reinforcements. Zhang Yuge knows that there will be no comrades behind him this time.
Until then, he had the intention to sit in the car and light a cigarette. Gray smoke instantly filled the car.
Zhang Yuge lowered the car window a little, and the sparrow beside him tried desperately to get in through the gap, but was stuck.
He seemed to have not seen those sparrows, and was just smoking one puff after another.
Facing the enemy with a fearless look is the psychological quality that a qualified Qing soldier should have. But if someone really asked Zhang Yuge if he was afraid at this time, he would laugh and curse and answer: What the hell If you say you're not afraid, it's definitely a lie. Aren't you afraid that you can try it?
At this time, the sparrows suddenly no longer blindly tried to squeeze in through the gap, but lined up in the sky, and then hit the front windshield head-on.
Zhang Yuge suddenly discovered that the beaks of these sparrows landed at the same point every time, as if they had been accurately calculated.
"Damn it, is this a sperm?" Zhang Yuge said in confusion.
But he didn't look any further. Instead, he lit another cigarette and turned on the music player in the car. The LCD screen displayed the music list in the car.
"One Step Away"
"Sorrow"
"Ah, Goodbye, Friends"
Zhang Yuge muttered: "This is nothing. Song, I don’t know whose car this car used to be, but the song titles are very suitable for the occasion, maybe on purpose..."
He clicked on "Goodbye, friend," and the long accordion, The piano intro suddenly floated out.
Ah, if I were here, I would die in battle.
Ah, goodbye, my friend, goodbye, goodbye.
Ah, every time people walk by here.
Ah, goodbye, my friend, goodbye, goodbye.
The cracks on the front windshield are getting bigger and bigger, and Zhang Yuge’s thoughts seem to have returned to the snowAt night, Qing Zhen, wearing a white suit, walked up to him and said softly: "I remember you. Your name is Zhang Yuge. You used to be a soldier under me. You made meritorious service when you killed the Fire Company."
Then Zhang Yuge watched the figure climb the mountain with his back straight.
Qing Zhen taught him ten words that night: be proud and neutral, and never bend the knee under all difficulties. This is Qing’s new soul after his rebirth.
Zhang Yuge looked at the dark sparrows outside the window, and then at the cracks that were about to burst on the windshield.
"Sitting back and waiting for death is not the Qing family's style. My name is Zhang Yuge, and I have made great contributions to the Qing family."
He smiled and picked up his automatic car from the passenger seat. Rifle, Zhang Yuge skillfully pulled the bolt, turned the music in the car to the maximum, then pushed the door and got out of the car and fired into the sky.
Then he was overwhelmed by countless sparrows.
The music in the car continued to play, and the singing became more and more passionate.
Ah, if I were here, I would die in battle.
Ah, goodbye, my friend, goodbye, goodbye.
