Chapter 1145: Darker Than Night
The sky outside the sentry post had gradually darkened, but the lights inside the sentry post were not on.
Since it is far away from human settlements, energy is scarce. Although there are street lights on the streets, none of them are lit. As a result, the entire road, including the sentry post, appears very dark.
When Xiao Jian turned off the lights of the car, Xiaolou was almost in darkness before, and only the little light transmitted from the door of Xiaolou illuminated the way forward.
"Mr. Lin, you wait for us in the car for a while, and when we hand in the task, let's go to the dormitory. Fu Ze said to the Lin brothers and sisters in the back seat: "It may take a little longer, please wait with peace of mind." ”
"Well, no problem. Lin Erha and Lin Xue'er rubbed their sleepy eyes, they were both sleeping all the way, so even after entering the sentry post, they had been sleeping soundly.
Fu Ze saw that there was nothing wrong with these two people, so he nodded at the Tiger team members who had been following Yuanbing 008: "Come on." ”
In the night, An Hao's blue eyes flashed with a little starlight, and he nodded, he finally arrived at the sentry post, and this is also the end of his mission, right?
"Stop, please show your ID. The guards pointed their guns at the crowd as soon as they spotted the snow leopards entering the building.
An Hao, who followed the Snow Leopard Team, walked up first, and after he showed his expedition badge and ID, the guard looked at it carefully, and then asked, "What are you doing here?"
"See General Gong Yi and deliver the previous task. Fu Ze stuck out his head from behind An Hao and replied simply.
"Please wait in the lounge for a while, General Gong Yi is in a meeting. The guard opened a small door next to it, and the group entered, but the small door was immediately shut.
Huo Chi listened carefully to the sound of the door closing, and found that the door was not locked, so he sat down on the sofa with peace of mind
After a day of running, everyone was actually tired and hungry, so they all closed their eyes and collapsed on the sofa, seizing the time to rest.
The frosted glass door of the conference room on the third floor of the small building revealed a dim light, and General Gong Yi was indeed in a meeting.
Several army officers from Huaxia, officers of the special forces directly under them, and high-ranking officials of the expedition team were all crowded into this small conference room for some reason.
At the end of the table sat a man with silver hair, who looked to be at least seventy years old, but who, despite his age, seemed to be in good spirits.
The white-haired man's face was already covered with traces of time, and he touched his face with the same vicissitudes of life, and when he put down his hand, his slightly cloudy eyes became sharp: "A few of you can't think of any other way?
When an army officer heard this, he immediately replied impassionedly: "No, General, I guarantee with my personality that even if all the soldiers have no food to eat and no bullets, we will absolutely not disgrace the motherland, and we, even if we eat monsters, will definitely not withdraw from the second outpost!"
"Hmph. When the general heard this, he shook his head slightly: "Don't shout slogans with me, the rations can last a few days now, you give me an accurate number!"
"If each person's daily ration is reduced to only one meal, it should be able to last for three to four days. The officer's face was obviously not very good, and he subconsciously touched his stomach, in fact, he had not eaten a grain of rice since the morning.
"Smack!" the old general was furious when he heard this, and he couldn't help but slap the table with his palm, which was so powerful that it almost shook the teacup in his hand.
However, although the teacup was still safely placed on the coaster, the officers present felt that their hearts were also shocked by this palm.
Only General Gong Yi of the Huaxia expedition team was very calm and picked up the water cup and took a sip of water. Well, this tea is good, it is a product of the ruins, and the taste is far away and clear, and it is by no means comparable to the broken leaves of those subcontinents.
He sniffed the fragrance of tea in the teacup, and couldn't help but take another sip, and the expression on his face became more and more indifferent with the fragrance of tea.
"Can only last three days, or can you only eat one meal a day! You just rely on this to let the soldiers hold on to the second outpost? When the time comes, there will be no food to eat, and it will cause a mutiny in the army, and I will see how you can clean it up." The old general spoke the worst possibility, and the wrinkles on his face became more and more profound.
"No, our soldiers will not mutiny. The officer's face changed slightly when he heard this, and he muttered: "Our soldiers are not the loose guys of the White Eagle, but they only eat one meal a day, and I think their combat effectiveness will indeed be damaged." ”
"Alas, have you found the gang that specializes in robbing our baggage?" the old general's eyes were blazing, and he looked directly at the representative of the index special forces, hoping to get the answer he wanted.
"Report, it's still under investigation, we've lost some investigators, so we're rebuilding our network now, and we're going to have to wait a little longer to get to the bottom of what happened. "The direct special forces informed the general of the current situation.
"Wait, wait, wait. You guys are the most paid among us, and you have the best benefits in the whole army, but you always make us wait!" The old general felt that this group of direct special forces was really incompetent than he imagined.
"Report, please calm the general's anger, we have done our best, because we have been deliberately sabotaged by the enemy, our operation is indeed a little difficult, the soldiers in front have sacrificed from time to time, and please be merciful to the general. The direct special forces did not flinch and further informed the general of the current situation.
"I really don't understand why the supplies that have just arrived at the second outpost can disappear overnight, and I don't understand why a company of soldiers escorting supplies can still be snatched away!"
"General, we will definitely find the culprit. ”
"General, please give us some more time. ”
When everyone heard this, they comforted the general again, but they also immediately said that they were still trying.
"Okay, okay, the first problem can't be solved, so let's talk about the second, which of you can find supplies quickly, even if it's just for a month, as long as we last another month, new supplies can come with the big army, so, I only need a month's supply, what can you do?" the general glanced at everyone.
However, this question seems to be more difficult than the previous one, and the few guys who dared to speak just now are now all silent.
"Army, can you solve it yourself?" The old general saw that all the eyes of the group were lowered, and he had to look at the army officer.
