Catastrophe

The transit base of No. 83 of the Dark Horse Company was set up next to the hospital in the rear.

Inside the tent at the transit base, Lao Zhao handed Ning Zhe a cup of hot water: "Minister Ning, you also saw that the conditions here are poor, and we are on the edge of the war zone. The environment is a little worse, so you should be more concerned."

"It's alright, we've all gone through hard times." Ning Zhe smiled, listening to the screams coming from the tents next door, and asked casually, "Manager Zhao, I just walked all the way. Come on, I found that the environment of the field hospital next door is very simple, and many wounded soldiers have only been simply bandaged, can this really save people?"

"Minister Ning doesn't know that the medical center next door to us is temporarily established, and for this reason, we have also occupied more than a dozen tents on our side!"

Old Zhao pursed his lips: "I heard that in order to fight this war, the Pei family has invested more than 60,000 troops. Every day, soldiers from major fortresses rushed to the front line, and there were also trucks of wounded soldiers. And the corpse was transported, and the seriously injured would be sent to the hospital inside the fortress first for emergency treatment, but the hospital in the city was already overcrowded! As a last resort, Mr. Pei could only establish many such temporary medical points, which can be regarded as one if one can be saved. Bar."

Ning Zhe heard that the hospital in the fortress was full of people, and then heard the mourning and cursing from time to time from the adjacent battlefield hospital: "I didn't expect the situation here to be so cruel."

"In wars, it's not just using human lives to divide the winners and losers!" Lao Zhao sighed: "We have an old employee in our branch, and his son is a company commander of a certain Pei's army. He was sent to the front more than half a month ago. , at that time, while the troops were gathering on No. 83, I came to see his father early in the morning. I have seen that young man, a very energetic and polite child, and he was on the battlefield less than two hours, and he was notified of his death. The book is down.

It is said that their troops were hit by rockets and artillery on the way to the position. A company of more than 100 people was killed in a few seconds, and there were not even a few whole corpses. The child's father could not accept this fact, saying that the child's body has not been seen, which means that the person is not dead!

I only comforted him at noon. He secretly drove to Qiongling in the afternoon, trying to find his son, but as soon as he entered the mountain, he drove into a minefield. After a day of work, the two of them were gone... No In two months' time, Pei's army had killed more than 20,000 people, all of whom were children in their prime! Many of the dolls that were sent to the battlefield didn't even grow their beards, and they were all fluffy. Alas... a sin! "

Ning Zhe has not witnessed the war with his own eyes, so it is difficult to understand the concept of more than 20,000 people killed in action, and the market town where he lived at the time only had a total of only 30,000 people.

Seeing that Ningzhe was silent, Lao Zhao thought he was frightened by his own words, and immediately changed the subject: "But Minister Ning, don't worry too much, our dark horse company has trade relations with the four clans, and the transportation team passes through Qiongling. If there are formal procedures, the troops of the chaebols of several parties will not trouble us, and the convoy will not be affected by the war. We have passed the news that the convoy is preparing to cross Qiongling to the headquarters of the four clans, except for the Jing family. In addition, the other three companies have responded, and as long as the approval from Jing's side is completed, you can leave early tomorrow morning."

Ning Zhe nodded: "Now the four clans are fighting, what is the situation?"

"Things on the front line are all military intelligence, and you will lose your head if you want to inquire! But I usually chat with the wounded soldiers at the medical point next door, and I also get some news. It is said that the front line is currently quite chaotic, and it has been changed from the initial melee to When the coalition forces started, Pei and Jing wanted to unite against the most powerful Xiahou clan, but Xiahou clan was tied to Lu clan again.

As the largest chaebol in Beihuang, Xiahou's army can be said to be the strongest in combat. There are several independent heavy artillery regiments under his command, as well as artillery divisions with mixed equipment such as cannons and howitzers, and the most powerful in Beihuang. The tank unit was also the party that dispatched the most tanks in this battle. It is said that more than 100 vehicles came.

In addition to the tanks, I heard that the Xiahou Clan is also equipped with a small amount of electromagnetic guns. The sound is low, the precision is high, and the range is long. There are rumors that the Jing Clan sent an admiral to inspect the battlefield, but the spy found the location. , and sent it back to my hometown in one shot! Now that the combined forces of Xiahou and the Lu clan are making great strides on the battlefield, the one who suffers the most is our Pei clan! "

After Lao Zhao said this, he smiled: "Of course, what I'm talking about is the news revealed by the soldiers at the bottom, it's just a talk, it's true or false, it's impossible to tell, but looking at this posture, if there is no After a year and a half, it is estimated that this war will be difficult to end."

After listening to Lao Zhao's words, Ning Zhe suddenly thought of Lu Meng. According to Lu Meng, after the Spring Festival, he will end his career as a diplomat, and there is a high probability that he will join the army, but in his identity as Lu Meng. , it is estimated that even if it is really sent to the battlefield, it is only gilded, and it is impossible to face any huge risks like front-line soldiers.

When Ning Zhe first met Zhang Duo, he had guessed that the Lu family would be involved in the battle, and that they must have allies, but they did not expect their allies to be the most powerful Xiahou family among the four chaebols.

The reply from Jing's side was not communicated until the afternoon. After the departure date was determined, the team began to supply and prepare materials.

In the transit base, the rumbling sounds of cannons from Qiongling could be heard all day long, and even at night it did not stop, because there was an experience of being attacked at the timber transit station before~www.readwn.com~ So Ning Zhe refused. After taking the tent arranged by Lao Zhao, he still lives in the land fortress.

After dinner, Ning Zhe pushed open the door of Jiao Baldzi's room and found that he was chanting sutras there with a string of Buddhist beads, and immediately grinned: "You flower monk, you have been vulgar for so many years, why are you doing your old job again? ?"

"The wine and meat have passed through the intestines, and the Buddha has it in his heart!" Jiao Baldzi bared his teeth happily: "Tomorrow we have to cross the battlefield. I'm not talking to the Buddha, asking him to bless me tomorrow to avoid some cannonballs!"

"Haha." Ning Zhe was delighted when he heard the words, and asked, "You are from Mobei, have you been to Qiongling before?"

"No!" Jiao Baldzi shook his head: "I'm a refugee, how do I know the geographical location? Because of the plague in the village back then, in order to survive, I made a mistake and went out for a walk, and finally I went all the way to Fort No. 88. When I met Wu Hao and Li Lin, I didn't even know how I got to Pei's site from Mobei, and I couldn't remember how long it took."

Ning Zhe handed over a cigarette: "Then how much do you know about the gangs in Mobei?"

Jiao Baldzi pondered for a moment: "How can I say that, the bandits in Mobei, the ones I've seen in Beihuang, are not the same!"
