One after another, using the traction rope that comes with the truck, Luo Baochun carefully pulled the three vehicles closer to the village.
After finishing this task, another hour and a half passed.
At this point, the traces left by the battle outside have been basically eliminated. As long as the bandits don't go out to investigate, Lao Xu can be sure that they will not see any clues.
Just kidding, Hua Zi and Lei Tong even picked up all the eggshells they shot down during the fierce battle on the roadside.
Faced with such a deliberate design by the survivor team, it would be really difficult for the remaining gangsters to detect it.
After returning to the village, Lao Xu first asked Luo Baochun to go back and rest.
The fat man's struggle just now consumed a lot of mental energy. Unless there were special circumstances, Lao Xu was not going to order him to take on the duty.
After sending Luo Baochun away, Lao Xu then inspected various stations. After understanding, he reconvened Wang Zhongyu and others who were resting.
"Let me tell you, take advantage of the time now, Xiao Wang, take the lead, and unload all the usable things from the three cars. As for the rest, what can be cut and cut can be unified. I will see how to deal with it later."
The three cars are definitely good things. Although they are abandoned and unusable due to various accidents, they are full of treasures.
First of all, tires, engines, and related spare parts are all natural materials.
Secondly, after the car body plates are cut, they are of great use whether they are used as garrison armor or as materials for large-scale construction in the future.
Finally, it is also possible to cut the car window glass appropriately and renovate the house.
That's why Lao Xu didn't hesitate to use a pickup truck to pull the three cars back even after calling Luo Baochun out.
"No problem, Lao Xu, leave this to me."
"Oh, and that... Jianghuai who just transported the body, please clean it up."
Jianghuai is the main force in collecting supplies when the station is out, and Lao Xu doesn't want to be ruined because of corpse contamination.
After hearing this, Hu Xiaodong waved his hand: "No need, Uncle Zhao, Weiyang and the others are already cleaning up behind."
After returning, Hu Xiaodong went back to his house, and happened to bump into Zhao Yunhai and others who were washing the car on the way.
Fortunately, it rained heavily last night, otherwise the water source for the car wash would have been a problem again.
After finishing this work, the station started working in full swing again.
Despite this, everyone can't relax.
There is no way, the threat of the remaining bandits is there after all, it is something that cannot be avoided.
Fortunately, now there are various signs from Ye Hao that they are not with the bandits.
This finally allowed Lao Xu to focus less on worrying about them.
But this does not mean that Lao Xu completely accepted the other party. Ye Hao and the others completed a life-and-death defense together with the survivor station.
In Lao Xu's eyes, Ye Hao and others are still a source of instability.
If they want to change this view, it may not be possible without a certain amount of time.
After all, what happened at the Yuhuan Gymnasium was there. Even though it had been so long, the past scenes had never left Lao Xu’s mind. It was like a nightmare that lingered around Lao Xu, reminding him of what he had committed. mistake.
Time passed by every second in this intense busyness and vigilance.
One day, two days, three days, the bandits never took any action. They seemed not to care about their own team.
Early that morning, everyone who had just finished their shift gathered in the village room.
Wei Dazhuang drank the porridge and cursed with some displeasure: "Damn! These **** are so fucking stupid. They haven't reacted at all after so many days!"
Hu Xiaodong nodded: "In terms of time, their people have not gone back for such a long time, so they should be aware of it."
"Hehe, in my opinion, they probably think that the people they sent have successfully convinced us that the people who are popular and drink spicy food here will be the masters."
"Well, Xiao Wen, I agree with this. The way those guys are arrogant, they are so confident out of ten." Wu agreed.
Lao Xu didn't speak, just drank the porridge from the bowl.
Seeing this, Lao Zhao smiled and said, "Let's not care what the other party thinks. We should follow our own ideas, remain unchanged in the face of changes, and do our daily guarding work."
After his voice fell, Lao Xu said: "That's right! As the saying goes, a war never tires of deceit. Xiao Wen just said that the enemy may feel that we have lost a corner and have relaxed their vigilance. But there is another possibility, that is, the other party is giving in to lust. , deliberately pretending to be indifferent, making us think that they will not attack, and wait until we are really relaxed before attacking with the whole family. So as Lao Zhao said, we should not guess the other party's intentions. Just do our job well. !”
"Oh, I also understand this. It's just that... holding it in like this makes me feel uncomfortable! Besides, we can't just stay here and spend time with them. According to my wishes, we will keep the two prisoners in the room. You can go directly to their base camp and start working."
"Well, that's a good idea. If they don't dare to come, let's go directly." Wenquan Xin held up the chopsticks in his hand, eager to try.
After hearing this, Lao Xu smiled involuntarily.
Seeing Xu Renjie laughing, Wenquan Xin and Wei Dazhuang looked at each other and then said in unison: "Hey, Old Xu, what are you laughing at?"
"You guys think I'm laughing. I ask you, let's go attack someone else's nest now. How are you going to attack? I won't say anything else. I'll just talk about you, Xiao Wen. How are you using 95 now? Can your 100-meter hit rate be good? How much?"
"I..." Dumb said on the spot.
"Waging a war does not rely solely on courage. The older generation had no choice but to rely on numbers during the war. What about us? Can we pile up? Have you ever experienced the feeling of a bullet grazing your scalp? What is the opponent's hand now? We still don’t know how much equipment there is. It’s too risky to kill them like this.”
If the safety of the station is not considered, Lao Xu can try to raid the enemy's base camp with a group of Ganjian Dao Company brothers.
But now, can he leave a whole family of brothers and sisters alone?
What if the enemy attacks from somewhere else as soon as he takes his men away?
Killing is not the purpose! General Xu is not a plunderer. Everything he does is to protect his team.
If the team members are gone, what's the point of killing everyone in the bandits' base camp?
After listening to Lao Xu's series of questions, Wenquan Xin and Wei Dazhuang stopped talking.
Although there is still a lot of resentment in my heart, the facts are unquestionable.
yes! Do you really have the courage to face the hail of bullets?
Wenquan Xin and Wei Dazhuang are currently unable to answer this question.
If they had not experienced the actual battle a few days ago, they might be like most ordinary people and think it was nothing.
But after actually fighting with bullets flying across the battlefield, they felt the "thrill", which is definitely not something you can overcome by talking or thinking in your heart.
On the battlefield, whether killing or being killed, it has a great shock to a person's heart.
This is why there are psychological wounds caused by war. To be continued.
