The large army in the distance advanced slowly. When the first military vehicle arrived at the bridge, the entire convoy stopped in place, seemingly preparing to check whether the surrounding environment was safe and whether it could cross the bridge.
After a while, a fully armed soldier stepped out of the leading military vehicle, followed by two companions. All three of them held a dark rifle in their hands and walked slowly towards the bridge. .
"Master Ma Long, what should we do? Do you want to get off the car?"
All this was naturally seen by everyone in the car, but Xu Xiaoxiao, who had been strengthened by the virus, had better eyesight and could see more clearly, so he was the first to ask.
"Lao Zhang, I'll get out of the car and you wait in the car with them."
Ma Long glanced at Zhang Jike in the back seat and whispered, as if he was asking for advice or giving an order.
"Well, be more careful."
After hesitating for a few seconds, Zhang Jike raised his drooped eyelids and spoke slowly.
Although it has not yet reached the time agreed with Lao Xu, it seems that there should be no problem, and the equipment worn by those soldiers is also very familiar, so there is no doubt that they are a large army of comrades.
The reason why he warned Ma Long to be careful was mainly to prevent attacks from zombies or mutated creatures.
After carefully observing the surrounding situation and confirming that there were no zombies around, Ma Long gently opened the car door and walked quickly towards the bridge.
Soon, Malone stepped onto the bridge and walked towards the three soldiers. In order to prevent the other party from mistakenly killing him as a zombie, he raised his hands while moving forward and shouted loudly.
"I am Ma Long, a member of the Chinese Air Rescue Force and a member of the temporary rescue team. Please don't shoot, please don't shoot!"
Ma Long did not shout with all his strength, but shouted with a voice that the other party could just hear, so as to attract the other party's attention without attracting the zombies lurking around him.
"Stand where you are and don't move! Tell me your unit number! And the name of your rescue team leader!"
The three soldiers who had just stepped onto the bridge immediately spotted Ma Long. When they raised their rifles and aimed ahead, and were about to shoot, they suddenly heard Ma Long's shouts. Then they became confused and used The same restrained voice shouted and asked.
"Unit No. 22, the leader of our rescue team is Zhang Jike."
Ma Long stopped honestly and stood on the spot and spoke word by word. Although he was extremely excited, as a soldier, he knew the necessity of asking questions, so he answered very cooperatively and did not act rashly.
Just as he finished speaking, the door of a car in the motorcade parked at the other end of the bridge opened with a clang, and a tall figure jumped out.
"It's really a pony! Brothers, it's okay, we are our own people!"
The soldier trotting all the way out of the car was Xu Xin, who had had two phone calls with Zhang Jike and the others before!
The three leading soldiers were startled when they heard the words. They all turned sideways and looked at Xu Xin behind them. After hearing his words, they all showed expressions of realization. They lowered the rifles in their hands, pointed the muzzles toward the ground, and waved to the other side. Malone came over to talk.
Ma Long, who raised his hands high, saw a tall man running out of the car on the opposite side. He looked familiar. He subconsciously took a closer look. After a while, a long-lost smile appeared on his face. When he saw the other person lowered his gun, When he waved to himself, he completely put his uneasy heart back into his stomach and walked forward with big steps.

"Pony! It's really you. It's great that you're okay hahahaha..."
Xu Xin seemed to be unable to wait for Ma Long to come over, so she trotted forward and hugged Ma Long in a bear hug, her deep voice trembling slightly with joy.
"Lao Xu, you are moving at a pretty good speed. There is still half an hour before the agreed time. This has to be put aside during the usual rally training. You are going to take first place again."
Ma Long couldn't hold back the joy on his face. He gently patted Xu Xin's generous back and made a small joke.
"Hey, why are you so strong now? These few blows can cause internal injuries to me."
The tall Xu Xin held Ma Long in surprise and looked at him carefully, as if she wanted to see some changes in him.
Facing Xu Xin's doubts, Ma Long just smiled and said without explaining anything.
"Lao Zhang and the others are at the bridgehead, and there are four survivors. After you cross the bridge in a moment, we will follow the large army and go to the Siming Mountain shelter with you."
"Great, this is the best, but the plan of the large army has changed. Now we are not going directly to the Siming Mountain shelter..."
When Xu Xin heard this, she was happy at first, but before it lasted long, the joy on her face was replaced by a touch of worry.
"What? Has the plan of the large army changed? Has it changed its route?"
After sniffing, Ma Long asked with some confusion.
Judging from the current situation, the military forces above should be concentrated in the shelter to resist the zombie attack. Why would they suddenly change the route of the large army? What important task is it trying to accomplish?
"Yes, we have received temporary instructions from above and need to head to another military station on the way to the Siming Mountain shelter."
Xu Xin glanced at the three officers standing aside and lowered her voice intentionally or unintentionally.
"What mission? It actually requires a large force to change its marching route. Shouldn't the team focus on preserving their strength now?"
"Hahahaha, great, little pony, our troops will cross the bridge in a moment, just follow the team behind them!"
The confusion on Ma Long's face became more intense, and he hurriedly asked, but Xu Xin suddenly seemed to be a different person, laughed slightly exaggeratedly, and reached out to pat Ma Long on the shoulder, forcibly ending the conversation. .
Before Ma Long could react, three soldiers who were some distance away from them stepped forward with guns in hand and asked with some urging.
"What's the situation on the other side of the bridge? Is it safe to cross?"
The leading soldier spoke in a very cold tone, which gave Ma Long the first impression that he was asking an insignificant passerby rather than a comrade with a common belief.
But Ma Long is not an impulsive person, and he will not question the other party's attitude. He will just answer the soldiers' questions cooperatively.
"The situation on the other side of the bridge is temporarily safe. There was a melee between zombie groups and mutated creatures in the river before. Now both sides have been harmed. They are all dead. There is no threat."
After finishing speaking, Ma Long silently stepped aside and made way for the three soldiers to move forward.
I saw the leading soldier winking at the two people behind him, and the three of them took steps forward and two back, striding toward the other end of the bridge. It seemed that they wanted to personally confirm the situation on the other side of the bridge.
But the three of them had not taken a few steps when the corpse of a giant turtle lying on the bank of the river appeared.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
In front of them, a body like a hill was leaning diagonally on the road, with two flippers the size of a car fastened to the concrete floor, and the thick and long neck, limp and motionless on the ground.
One of the soldiers raised the rifle in his hand and used the magnifying glass on the barrel as a telescope. After observing the turtle carcass in the distance, he whispered a few words to the leading soldier, and they turned around and headed towards where Ma Long was. The direction came back.
"Unable to determine whether the mutated creature is alive or not, the entire team turned around, moved along the river bank, and passed through the next bridge."
The leading soldier seemed to be talking to Ma Long and Xu Xin, and seemed to be talking to himself. After saying these words, he walked quickly towards the position of the leading car, apparently preparing to leave here.
"But that giant turtle should be dead already. Wouldn't it be better to just cross the bridge? That way you don't have to take a detour..."
Hearing the order from the leading soldier, Ma Long was a little surprised. Although the main task of the large army was to protect itself, it was too cautious. He just observed it from a distance and gave the order to avoid it.
But his muttering to himself did not attract the attention of the leading soldier. In other words, the other party heard it but ignored it.
Xu Xin glanced at Ma Long helplessly, patted his shoulder, and said nothing more, just followed the three soldiers back to the convoy.
After being stunned for two seconds, Ma Long immediately took off and ran towards the bridge. When he started, the low roar of car engines could be heard again in the convoy. The convoy was about to start again, and there was no one waiting for them to join. mean.
"What the hell is going on..."
With confusion, Ma Long quickly returned to the pure black Tesla. As soon as he opened the door, all questioning eyes were thrown at him, but Ma Long was not in the mood to answer, and just gave faint instructions.
"Yan Hanben, drive, let's cross the bridge and keep up with the large army."
Zhang Jike, who was sitting in the back seat, immediately noticed something strange on Ma Long's face. He slightly raised his heavy eyelids, and a glimmer of light flashed in his deep eyes, as if he was thinking about something.
"Oh, let's cross the bridge, right?"
As soon as Yan Yanben heard Ma Long's instructions, he quickly started the car. He was naturally curious about the content of the conversation between Ma Long and the other party, but as a temporary driver, after receiving the instructions to set off, he still suppressed his curiosity.
Out of trust in the army, Yan Hanben believed that as long as he kept up with the large army, their safety would be basically guaranteed. Therefore, he was particularly active and focused in following the car. After all, it was about his own little life. Fate, anyone would care about it.
The pure black Tesla car drove onto the bridge quietly. When a group of them passed the bridge, more than half of the large convoy had already driven out, and only a few small trucks were still parked. They seemed to be in the convoy. Specially responsible for the rear.
Originally, according to Xu Xin, their car should follow the end of the convoy. Although this could not guarantee the greatest degree of safety, it could at least provide some shelter. After all, the focus of the large force was not to rescue survivors, so it was possible to do so. What you do is the utmost benevolence and righteousness.
But while Yan Hanben and his party were waiting in the middle of the road, the second-to-last truck at the end of the convoy suddenly leaned half of its body out of the cab and waved vigorously towards them, signaling for the car to cross into the queue. , the truck came to the rear.
Yan Hanben did not hesitate. As soon as he stepped on the accelerator, the black car quickly inserted into the convoy like a flexible hamster and drove smoothly according to the speed of the convoy...
