"Brother Xiaoma, you and Captain Zhang are really awesome. The two of you can single-handedly lead four survivors out of the city. I admire you!"
After a short exchange, Hu Teng had a general understanding of the experiences of Ma Long and others. He gave thumbs up and exclaimed and praised them repeatedly.
"It's just good luck that I happened to meet a civilian who had a lot of supplies at home..."
Recalling everything that had happened before, Ma Long couldn't help but feel a little emotional. Although the result was successful survival, only those who had experienced it could understand the life and death crisis he encountered.
Seeing Ma Long and Hu Tengye chatting happily, Xu Xiaoxiao, who was having a fart at the side, also cautiously approached.
At first, she just stood aside obediently and eavesdropped, but seeing that the two of them didn't seem to shy away from her, they couldn't help but let go of their courage and started communicating with the bearded soldier.
"Big Beard, where are you going with this large army? Why did it suddenly change its route?"
Facing the curious girl's question, Hu Teng also changed his expression, but he did not avoid talking like the soldier who received Ma Long before. Instead, he looked around nervously to make sure there was no one else. He spoke in a low voice that only three people could hear.
"Originally, we were indeed going to the Siming Mountain Refuge to meet up with the local main force, but we received an order from our superiors to go to Yunlong Town first, so we changed our original route."
"Yunlong Town? Is that a small town on the edge of the Siming Mountains?"
Ma Long obviously knew about Yunlong Town that Hu Teng also mentioned. Seeing that Xu Xiaoxiao had found out the information he wanted to know, he suppressed his excitement and asked patiently.
"Yes, it's that small town with a population of less than 150,000."
Hu Teng also smashed his mouth, and his big beard trembled as he moved his chin.
"Why are you going there? In a town with such a small population density, is there someone important there who needs to be taken care of?"
Ma Long continued to ask, but Hu Teng also shook his head, saying that he did not know the details of the mission and was just following the team.
"Then how long will it take?"
Xu Xiaoxiao's head rarely grasped the key point and raised the biggest question facing the team.
"If we go to Yunlong Town from here, if we don't encounter any emergencies on the way, we will probably arrive early tomorrow morning by car. Of course, this takes into account the time to clear obstacles on the road."
Stretching out a stubby index finger to touch his thickly bearded chin, Hu Teng, a Jilaishu soldier, thought for a moment and gave the answer in his mind.
"One night is not long, but this is based on the fact that there are no emergencies..."
Ma Long thought to himself, his eyes drifted to Xu Xiaoxiao, indicating for her to continue asking questions.
Xu Xiaoxiao then asked the other party about food, hoping to get some supplies from the army so that she could offer sacrifices to her five internal organs temple.
But after learning that the large army's food reserves were also supplied in quotas, the girl looked like an eggplant beaten by frost, with disappointment written all over her fair face.
"Master Ma Long, do we really want to follow the large army to Yunlong Town first? If there is any emergency and we are delayed, the food in the car will not be very enough..."
Xu Xiaoxiao touched his flat belly, as if he had imagined what it would look like when he was hungry.
"Well, it seems that at present
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
This is all we can do for now..."
Ma Long was slightly startled, obviously thinking about the problem of insufficient food reserves, but if he left the large army at this time, he would lose the protection of the army. Going to the Siming Mountain shelter alone would greatly increase the risk.
"Little girl, are you hungry? I have two compressed biscuits over there for you to eat..."
Hu Teng on the side also saw Xu Xiaoxiao touching his belly and thought that the other party had not eaten.
"But bearded man, your food is also allocated in quotas. If you give it to me, what will you eat? I don't want it, I don't want it..."
Although she was not full, the girl was too embarrassed to take up other people's food shares and waved her hands to refuse. However, the familiar Hu Teng did not seem to give her a chance to refuse. He had already walked quickly to the side of the military vehicle, half-length He reached into the cab of the military vehicle.
When he returned to Xu Xiaoxiao, he already had two packs of compressed biscuits that had not yet been split.
"Here, it's just compressed biscuits, but it's quite filling. My usual job is to drive, so I won't be hungry. You can eat them all!"
Before the girl could say anything, Hu Teng forced the cookie into Xu Xiaoxiao's hand and smiled honestly.
"this……"
Facing the soldier's enthusiasm, Xu Xiaoxiao seemed a little at a loss for a while, and turned his eyes to Ma Long beside him for help.
"Brother Hu, we still have some food reserves to last a few days. You'd better take this back first..."
Ma Long spoke, took the compressed biscuit from the girl's hand, and wanted to return it to Hu Tengye's hand.
"Stop talking nonsense, look at the little girl. She is such a strong doll, but her little face has become thin due to hunger. Hurry up and eat it. This is an order! Hahahaha..."
The bearded man pretended to be angry and gave the order to Ma Long with a straight face.
Although the two met for the first time, and the military rank was not clear, there is an unwritten rule in the army. When recruits first join the army, they are told to respect veterans who are older than themselves, and recruits often call them " These veterans serve as squad leaders.
As long as you are called squad leader, you will be your lifelong superior from a sentimental point of view.
Even if a recruit's military rank is higher than that of a veteran, when he sees someone older than him, he still has to call him "Squad Leader" in private.
At this time, the bearded man pretended to be angry and issued an "order" to Ma Long, which was exactly the meaning of "relying on his old age and selling his old age".
"yes!"
Ma Long immediately stood at attention and gave Hu Teng a standard military salute. Then he smiled helplessly at Xu Xiaoxiao and motioned for her to accept the cookie.
"Then just accept it, thank you, Brother Hu."
Since Hu Tengye's words have reached this point, it would be pretentious for Xu Xiaoxiao to shirk it anymore, so he simply unpacked the compressed biscuits and gnawed them in front of the two of them.
The chaos at the head of the convoy has subsided. Two soldiers put the soldier on the ground in a body bag and carried it outside, apparently intending to throw away the body.
"By the way, who is the commander-in-chief of the team now? Is he the one who received me at the beginning?"
Ma Long looked at the backs of the two soldiers carrying the corpse and said.
"Alas, the original commander died, and now Qiu Qianjun is the commander-in-chief of the team."
"Sacrificed?"
Ma Long was stunned for a moment, but then he figured it out.

joints.
In this apocalyptic environment, death is unavoidable. Ordinary people have encountered huge changes, let alone their group of soldiers who carry guns and face danger.
"Brother Ma, you don't know something. Our team looks like a whole, but it is actually composed of several remaining troops. Although the command of the team is in the hands of one person on the surface, in fact no one is convinced in private. who."
"Although Qiu Qianjun is the commander-in-chief of the team on the surface, he has to communicate with two other people to give any orders in private. Otherwise, the mission cannot be carried out at all. Everyone is doing their own thing, and the team is barely cohesive."
Having said this, Hu Teng also sighed, seeming to be very worried about the current situation of the large army.
"One unit, three leaders? How could this happen? Don't they act according to their military ranks?"
Ma Long was surprised. In his impression, the quality of the army did not seem to be so low. When faced with special situations, the army should take special measures.
"Oh, you don't know something..."
Hu Teng also sighed and was about to explain, but unexpectedly, a shout came from afar, interrupting what he was about to say.
"Ma Long!"
A tall soldier trotted towards the rear, calling Ma Long's name.
"Old Xu? You came just in time. I have something to ask you..."
When Ma Long saw it was Xu Xin, he immediately greeted him. Although Hu Teng, whom he knew well, seemed easy to get along with, and he should be able to get a lot of useful information from him.
But in the final analysis, when it comes to important things like asking for information, he still trusts his old comrades who spend time with him day and night.
Mainly because I heard that there are currently three talkers in the army. If Hu Tengye's boss and Ma Long's boss don't wear a pair of trousers, the accuracy of the information obtained can be imagined.
As Ma Long's old comrade-in-arms, Xu Xin should still be on the same ship of interests as Ma Long and others, even if their powers are dispersed.
"I know what you want to ask. Go to the car and I'll tell you slowly."
Xu Xin seemed to know Ma Long's doubts, waved her hand, lowered her voice and signaled to go to the car to communicate.
"Well..." Ma Long nodded and glanced at Hu Tengye aside intentionally or unintentionally.
"Brother Hu is one of our own, don't worry, go and talk in the car."
While speaking, Xu Xin nodded to Hu Teng who was not far away. The three of them entered the cab of the military vehicle, one in front and two in back, leaving Xu Xiaoxiao alone outside.
The girl saw that Ma Long and others had no intention of bringing her with them, and she didn't think there was anything wrong. After all, the soldiers were discussing important matters, and she, a little civilian, couldn't help much if she got in there.
After finishing the compressed biscuits in my hands in a few times, I felt that my mouth was a little dry, so I quickly returned to the car to get a bottle of water and drank it. Only then did I feel that some energy was injected into my empty stomach.
"There is no way to go on like this. My appetite is getting bigger and bigger..."
For ordinary people, one piece of military compressed biscuit can fill a meal, but for Xu Xiaoxiao, it only gave him a slight feeling of fullness.
"I don't know if Uncle Ni and the others have finished their food. If not, maybe I can still get some..."
The girl murmured to herself, a hint of cleverness flashed in her eyes...
