When Mada rushed up to question Han Shu, Tianyang was surrounded by a group of newcomers.
They were full of longing, hoping to gain experience and grow quickly here at Tianyang. But they didn't know that there was no shortcut to growth, and they didn't know what Tianyang had exchanged for everything he had now.
When they learned from Xu Qing that this young lieutenant was also a Templar, and that the dazzling Sword of Morning Light was an equipment produced by the church.
These young people began to take an interest in the church, and suddenly Tianyang began to understand why the church wanted to develop flashy equipment like 'Dawn'.
In this way, every time someone uses Chenxi, it indirectly promotes the church, especially young and ambitious people like the one in front of him.
After being blinded by the 'morning light' just now, he is likely to blindly worship the church, and in the future, he may become the new blood of the church.
While letting the group of newcomers discuss, Tianyang focused his attention on Han Shu.
Tianyang noticed what Mada said at that time and the situation of the tank.
From Han Shu's perspective, the boy didn't think there was anything wrong with the captain's order.
The enemies were numerous and it was difficult to clear out their long-range firepower and kill the Red Tyrant, creating good conditions for the convoy to break out.
If we go to rescue people at this time, we may miss the chance to break out. After all, no one can guarantee that there are only those gunners among the black people, and there will not be strong black people like the Red Tyrant who can intercept the team.
Furthermore.
Even if we go to rescue them, are the people in the car still alive
If they are rescued, are they still human
At that time, the black people gathered together and piled up a small hill on the cart.
It was obvious that even if there were still people alive inside, their protective suits had been damaged. The pheromones had leaked, so the black people could sense it and huddled together in the car.
If the protective suit is damaged for more than three minutes, ordinary people will die or turn into monsters under the invasion of black fog.
In this case, rescue would be meaningless.
In this situation, should we risk missing the chance to break out and save a few mechanics who we don't know if they can be saved, or should we abandon those people and give others a chance to break out
Anyone with a bit of common sense would choose the latter.
So Tianyang felt that his captain had done nothing wrong.
Of course, there’s nothing wrong with the motor either.
As the foreman of the mechanics, he was responsible for his men, so there was nothing wrong with that.
No one is wrong in this matter.
It’s just that their positions are different, so their considerations are also different.
After Mada questioned him again, Han Shu finally stopped being silent and pushed him away.
"You're worried about your men."
"Can I let my team members take risks?"
"The black people gathered together, obviously attracted by pheromones. How could the pheromones be leaked? Don't you have any idea about it?"
"I am the person in charge of this mission, Commander! I am responsible for the personnel of the entire convoy, and even more so for the mission!"
"When necessary, I must give up. I am cruel. Yes, the adversity is so cruel! If you can't bear it, you can go back now!"
"But if you still decide to carry out the mission, then shut up and learn to adapt to it!"
Ma Da was gasping for breath and wanted to rush up to argue with Han Shu, but in the end he was carried away by other mechanics.
Han Shu quickly adjusted his mood. He stopped yelling and became terrifyingly calm.
Just sitting there, smoking a cigarette.
He didn't let out a breath until he finished smoking: "Eat!"
The supplies rationed to the special team are quite good, including food.
In the past, when the team was on a mission, they could only drink water and eat high-energy food bars. The soldiers were even worse off, because it was inconvenient to wear protective clothing, so they could only put liquid food into the supply slot and then suck it with the food straw in the helmet.
it's good now.
Once the isolation light tent is set up, the soldiers can eat and rest inside.
As for the night walkers, they set up a long table, ate stew and bread, and drank a special drink rich in water and nutrition.
Both the Tianjian and Huayu teams benefited from this and didn’t have to eat dry food bars.
After eating, Tianyang patted his stomach and said, "I'm going on patrol."
Han Shu nodded slightly to show his agreement.
The boy strolled around the camp and took a turn. When he passed a strange rock, he found the motor sitting behind the rock.
If Tianyang had discovered this in advance, he would not have come here. It would only be more embarrassing to retreat after bumping into him.
He simply walked over and asked calmly: "Have you eaten?"
Motor raised his head from his helmet and tapped the food supply slot on his belt. "Just ate."
Tianyang squatted down beside him: "Aren't you also an ascender? Why are you wearing a protective suit?"
In fact, he had wanted to ask this question for a long time.
Ma Da hesitated, then said, "Before I became an Ascendant, my protective suit was torn in the Reverse Realm. The black fog invaded and I almost exceeded the three-minute limit."
"I was very scared at the time, but I was still sober and tried my best to patch up my protective suit, thus surviving."
"But after that, this incident left a shadow on me. Even though I became an ascender, I still had to wear a protective suit before I dared to enter the world of rebellion."
He paused and looked in the direction of the camp: "I've been through that kind of thing, so I know what it feels like to be desperate."
"In fact, I know that Captain Han Shu did nothing wrong. I also know that when I yelled at him, I was actually venting my cowardice."
"If I really cared so much about their lives, I should have gone to save them myself instead of blaming Captain Han Shu afterwards."
Tian Yang looked at him, without expressing his opinion, but patted his shoulder gently: "Don't be too harsh on yourself."
Ma Da was a little surprised. He glanced at Tian Yang and then squeezed out two words: "Thank you."
After they rested in the camp for six hours, the convoy continued on its journey.
More than thirty hours later, the convoy arrived near the small town called 'Nantong'.
"This town has only recently begun to be explored."
Han Shu smoked a cigarette, looking into the distance which was completely invisible, and said in a deep and heavy voice: "The town is not big, but it has a permanent population of tens of thousands, which is equivalent to the total population of our fortress."
"Two black dens have been discovered in the town. Since no valuable mineral deposits or recyclables have been found, the town has now been opened to gold diggers."
"If nothing unexpected happens, there are several gold prospecting teams and one or two nightcrawler teams in the town, exploring in depth."
Han Shu scratched his messy hair and said, "Although I think this is a bit of an overreaction, let's still follow the procedure."
"Cangdu, take your people into the town to check out the situation first. The rest of the people will stay on standby. We will pass through only after we confirm that the route is safe."
Cang Du's calm voice rang out from the car communicator: "Received."
So the two Falcon vehicles left the convoy and drove along the road towards the town in the distance. Soon, they disappeared into the wilderness shrouded in black fog.
After a moment of silence, the sound of a motor rang out in the public channel: "Captain Han Shu... I was too impulsive just now and said something without thinking. I hope you don't take it to heart."
Tianyang in the car raised his head with some surprise.
Han Shu, who was in another car, smiled faintly: "It's okay."
Ma Da hummed, and the communicator fell silent again.
Not long after, I received a report from Cangdu: "Captain, we have entered the town and everything is normal. However, I received a distress signal."
Han Shu asked casually: "What distress signal?"
Cang Du responded: "From the code of the signal, it was sent by a team called 'White Oriole'. I just used our internal system to check and found that this team is indeed active in the town."
"Report the situation to the base and let Four Eyes designate a rescue team. We don't have time to waste." Han Shu made a quick decision.
Cang Du obviously hesitated, then said: "The coordinates of the signal are exactly on our route."
"so?"
Han Shu thought for a moment and said, "Then go and take a look. Be careful."
"clear."
In the battle vehicle of the Tianjian team, Cang Du switched to the team communication mode: "Head to the rescue site, everyone be careful. We have encountered a kind of black people before, who can disguise as a distress broadcast."
"Although the signal sent this time was electronic and the signal code was verified, we still cannot take it lightly."
Soon, the team arrived at the signal coordinates. This was a main road in the town, and not far ahead, in the center of the road, there was a Falcon tank lying on its side.
When the lights were turned on, the chariot was seen to be covered with scars and many traces of battle remained on the hull, and even the Xingsu heavy artillery had been dismantled.
It looked like it had been through a war.
Perhaps it noticed the headlights, a head popped out of the car and then propped up half of its body.
It's a woman.
Wearing the Night Walker uniform, she shouted: "Help me, I am injured and cannot move. I have two more wounded people here who need to be transferred to a safe place urgently."
The car door opened, and Cang Du responded loudly: "We are the Tianjian team, I am the captain Cang Du. Don't worry, we will be here right now."
After jumping off the chariot with his equipment, Cangdu quickly ordered: "Soldiers, prepare stretchers and emergency medicines. Xu Qing, Lian Chuan, follow me."
"Xiaobai, A'Ke, you stay here and protect the vehicle."
Under Cangdu's arrangement, the soldiers quickly took out two simple stretchers, carried the first aid kit, and followed Cangdu and two team members to the scrapped tank.
When he took a few steps closer, Cangdu suddenly stepped on something, making a clanging sound.
When he lifted his foot, he found that he had stepped on a real missile, but for some reason, the missile did not explode. The missile body was intact, with only fine friction marks on the surface.
Looking at the missile, Cangdu raised his head again and carefully observed the chariot, especially the traces of battle left on the chariot body.
These marks are caused by bullet holes, burn marks, and some sharp objects...
