Chapter 1072: Precursor of Disarray (5)

There were also a lot of corpses around, the people who rescued Charros, and the people who intercepted them mixed together.

"It's not like the Kingdom of Bollanton. Wolfe crouched down next to a relatively intact corpse and said, "It doesn't fit the character of the Poletonians, or it doesn't fit the general area." As a native of the area, Wolfe's judgment is no less convincing.

"I didn't see Charros's body either. Vettel walked over from the side and added, "I should have escaped without incident, but I don't know what so many people from the Kingdom of Bollanton are chasing him for." With thought, Vettel had a lot of curiosity about the matter. Charros was a prominent figure in the region, and was associated with a high-ranking official in Bolandon. Even Vettel's company asked him for help when it set up a supply depot here. Everything changed in just one night. The disparity between those who had been sitting on power and wealth became criminals that a country would send a regular army to hunt down, and that was indeed interesting enough.

Kasia glanced closely at the interceptors, looking for some kind of distinctive mark on their clothes or bodies. But there was nothing, and the other side was so concerned about identity that Kasia didn't get any valid information.

After staying here for about ten minutes, the four of them each wrote down what they wanted, and then stood together to negotiate.

Encountering the corpse means that Charros fled in this direction. The few of them didn't want to be involved in this unclear situation, so they all agreed to change their destination and changed their route temporarily. It would take hours to detour, but compared to the possible risks, Vettel and the others felt that it didn't matter.

At 2 p.m. the next day, the four of them were already sitting in a small city restaurant, eating hot food. It was raining lightly outside, which made it appear that there was not enough light. Having experienced, the four did not immediately go to the station in the city, but chose to wait and see for a while.

Until the evening, there was no newspaper report on the town, except for a brief mention of a fire in the town of Filoka that had been burned down by unscrupulous manufacturers. Even though it is a small kingdom, this kind of control over mainstream information still makes the four of them realize that the individual is indeed very small compared to the structure of the state.

Going to the station in the evening, Vettel took some time to contact the company's headquarters to briefly explain the situation, which can be regarded as clarifying the instructions of the company's top management for the next work. Wolf stayed here for the time being, and two more people were sent from here, a driver and one like Sebastian Vettel, to protect the cargo.

A total of five men, armed with weapons and vehicles in the extra storage of supplies in the small city, set off at 10 p.m. It drove away from a pickup truck with reinforced steel plates and bulletproof composite materials inside the compartment and a triple heavy machine gun. The small problems encountered on the road can probably be solved under the suppression of its firepower.

Kasia and the new contender stayed in the crate. Every hour, Vettel opens a window directly from the cab to the cargo box to report on the current journey.

It was probably the events in the town of Filoca that affected Vettel's company, and the stations in each town did their best to help the pickup truck on the route. From the supply of materials for various needs, to the identity and convenience of entering and exiting the borders of various countries, almost all of them are green lights. The only time I was stuck for a little bit was because of internal factors in the country I was in at the time. Everything went well, so to speak, except that the weather has not improved.

The rainy weather came as soon as it was said, and it was unwilling to leave, and it has been hovering over a large area. As a result, the temperature has dropped by a few degrees, and it feels like late autumn and winter.

On this day, it was less than a day's journey to the border of the Kingdom of Chir. The vehicle is a finely paved gravel road, and there are bumps from time to time. It was caused by the indentations that were run over by heavy vehicles on the road. Approaching the Kingdom of Chir, the news of the war heard more and more during the break, and the sights along the way also felt like ruins.

It can't be said that craters are everywhere, but at least the frequency of occurrence does not make the eye forget the last time it was seen. It was also at this time that Kasia saw a fresh vehicle in a resting town. Like an armored car, but with thicker steel plates and various guards, and instead of rubber tires, he has tracks connected to steel. It is also much larger than an armored car, with one or two barrels that fire shells. I haven't seen the real power, but it's not hard to tell from the craters and the wreckage of houses that you see from time to time along the way.

Vettel told Cassia that it could be seen as an upgrade of the armored car, something called a "tank".

"It is very common in these countries, and even many countries use it as a major weapon of war on land, with well-trained soldiers, or in separate formations, with great attack power and marching speed. ”

"But on the Empire's side, as far as I know, the Far Sea Commons and the Flame Alliance all stopped developing it a long time ago. I guess I gave up on this kind of thing and didn't use it anymore. So on the other hand, a lot of the 'tank' technology in these countries is obtained from the three giant countries. It will no longer be developed and no longer used, and its technology will naturally no longer be a secret, and it will gradually be sold here, which is also a predictable thing, I think. ”

The nature of Vettel's work meant that he had traveled among these countries for many years, and he knew a few things well: "It's not for nothing that the empire has eliminated them, it's just that I don't know." As far as the information is concerned, among the vehicles of the Webley Arms Company, any mid-level limousine can be compared with the main battle tanks of these countries. If the level is a little higher, not to mention the power, and even in defense, it will not fall. On the one hand, they only know the thickness of the steel plate, or make a sandwich, whether it is hard ceramics, bulletproof materials, or reactive armor, and the other side is committed to the research of new materials, alloys with stronger performance, and so on. It can't be compared, as far as everyone is familiar with meteorite copper, the most common metal material on the post-phase continent, many countries around us have not fully understood, not to mention other high-grade alloys with complex processes and proportions. ”

"I also read books sometimes, and I remember one thing very clearly. Probably more than a hundred years ago, for some unknown reason, the empire sent troops to attack a kingdom. It took less than a week before and after the battle to end completely. Of course, it's not that the troops of the empire fought with the army of that kingdom for a week, it was just that it took so long to get from the empire to that country. Remember that the Empire sent only a standard fleet of airships, and it took seven days to reach the skies over the hostile country, and two or three hours later, that country announced its surrender. From beginning to end, all that kingdom saw was the shadow of the Imperial Airship Fleet in the depths of the sky, and as for what the soldiers on it looked like, perhaps no one could say. ”
