Although it was not an enemy attack, the people who were training had stopped training.
The security team, led by Peter, assembled their weapons, while the others sat in groups to rest.
Egger quickly ran to the bottom of the bell tower and shouted to the bell tower: "What's going on?"
After a while, a woman's voice came from the bell tower. She said loudly: "There is a convoy of two cars coming towards us along the highway, with small green flags on the cars."
Green flag?
It's easy to understand if it's other colors, but what's going on with the green color? Is it a friendly force or a coincidence?
Iger often didn't listen to Lily's radio broadcasts, so he didn't know that Lily had promoted it many times on the radio. As long as he saw the green "safe", he would enter the safe zone of the gospel group.
The reclamation team also set up a safety zone. There is no car wall in this safety zone. Instead, a huge green "safe" is spray-painted directly on the large wall of a roadside farmhouse.
This convoy was obviously well-prepared. Before entering the safe zone, they flew a green flag to prevent being shot by sentries.
Since that big retreat, this was the second time Egg saw the survivor team. He was sitting on a long wooden bench at the door of the church, ready to communicate with the outside team and collect some outside intelligence.
As a result, they did not stop the car and drove directly past the church.
what's going on?
Are people so arrogant nowadays?
Egger was confused.
This is natural.
People come all the way here just to join the gospel team, but Ross Town, a place like this, looks shabby.
What's more, before entering the town, I saw a group of prisoners wearing the same clothes working hard under the surveillance of armed guards. Who dared to stop the car?
Of course, the gospel team has promised to be friendly to outsiders.
We have entered the safe zone, happiness is just ahead, and the roar of the survivor team's cars reveals excitement and happiness.
"Pide, Pide!" Iger shouted at the top of his lungs. After hearing the sound, Pide ran over at a trot.
"Captain, what's the matter?" Pide asked Iger.
Different people call Egger differently. This is a habit, and it also carries a slight distinction between intimacy and distance.
People who came out of the field team, such as Erica, still habitually call Iger "captain", and the members who joined later are all called Iger "leader".
At first, some people felt that Iger was too young, so they called him "Grand Leader" out of fun. Now, the Grand Leader is still the Grand Leader, but here, there is less ridicule and more respect and admiration.
too much.
Since forming the reclamation regiment, Egger has led the team on three missions.
The first time he sniped and killed the infected brains and blood epidemic hearts entrenched in Puduo City; the second time he rescued the trapped field team members; the third time, good guys, killed the infected people in Puduo City.
The city of Putuo was destroyed as well.
Putting aside the scheduling process, just looking at the results of each field trip, it is simply amazing.
Pide ran over quickly. He didn't do much electrician work. He usually focused on the security team's affairs.
When Erica left Ross Town, the security team was led by Peter.
"Piede." Egg said to Piede, "I have a hunch that Lily probably reported on the radio that we captured Puduo City.
I was too busy yesterday and forgot that my original plan was to evacuate the Nancheng Building and then ask Lily to report. As a result, she yelled, and I don’t know how many people were going to come over."
Upon hearing this, Pi De understood what Iger meant.
"I know, Grand Commander. I will strengthen the security team's vigilance and patrol work." Pide said to Egg.
"Hey, by the way, remember to tell the team members that when you meet strangers, you must speak in a gentle tone. Everyone who comes is a guest." Egg said to Pide: "Go to Maria and get all the police equipment.
Come out. When the patrol team is patrolling, all personnel, including the driver, must put on body armor and riot helmets. Don't be too hot, and no one is allowed to take them off without permission."
The reclamation regiment is still a team of four. During joint field operations, it was changed to a three-person team to take care of the gospel team.
The security team has 5 teams with a total of 20 people.
Although the police station in Ross Town is small, it does have a lot of equipment. Egg learned that this has something to do with the employment of police officers in America.
That is to say, everyone feels that public security is no longer good and needs to be strengthened, so more police officers are recruited. Everyone feels that police funding is too high and needs to be reduced, and then some police officers are fired.
As for equipment, those things become fixed assets after being purchased, and they will not rot when piled there. Therefore, the number of police equipment far exceeds the number of police officers.
The patrols of the security team are equipped according to the firepower of the field team. Each team has a pickup truck, equipped with 4 pistols, plus 3 ARs and 1 shotgun. Now Egg has added heavy-duty anti-riot suits to them. As long as they do not encounter
Equipped with a 12.7mm heavy machine gun and an RPG, this equipment can not only crush the enemy, but can at least escape intact.
The principle of the security team is not to fight to the death with the enemy. When encountering the enemy, flee immediately, flee back first, and then organize dozens of people to find a place. However, the equipment of these guys who run away from the enemy is unknown.
How many other teams do you have to crush?
After Ige gave the order to strengthen patrols, Pide went to make arrangements. He changed the patrol from once a day to twice a day.
Ross Town is surrounded by wide plains on all sides. In order to have enough buffer time, the safety zone of Ross Town is particularly large, and its jurisdiction area far exceeds that of Jixi Town.
The only good news now is that the west side does not need to be taken care of, and only the three sides need to be patrolled. Then, three security patrols armed to the teeth set off, and what happened next proved that Iger's arrangement was indeed correct.
Puduo County has a C-shaped structure. Regardless of the road transportation network of a country that extends in all directions, in sparsely populated areas, there are basically single-line connections between cities.
Jixi Town is exactly the only way to enter the C-shaped hinterland. If Jixi Town is the throat, Ross Town and Vassar Town, which was destroyed by fire, are the lips and teeth.
In the past few days, many people have been migrating toward Puduo County along the state highway. The security team simply set up a temporary sentry point at the border of the safety zone. If there is a team entering the safety zone, they will come to them in a friendly manner.
Say hello in front of them, and then tell them some things that need to be paid attention to. In simple words: This is my territory, please restrain yourself.
The heavily armed security personnel were very persuasive, and all the survivors obeyed their persuasion.
Survivors who can survive from the outbreak of the blood epidemic to the present, you say how clean their hands are, it's not that there are none, but it is difficult to find a few. But when it comes to decisive killing and super strong action like Lao Cui, you still don't listen.
There was no advice.
Anyone who didn't listen to the advice would have been killed long ago.
Some of the teams that entered the safe zone were in relatively good condition. For example, the team on the first day didn't look down on Ross Town at all, so they passed by in a flash.
Some of them were in a worse situation. They brought a lot of pots and pans with them, including the old, the weak, the sick, the disabled and pregnant women. They were all thin and frail, with disheveled faces, and they looked very much like refugees wandering around in a caravan.
Yes, these are actually refugees.
The worst situation was for a group of four people. After they arrived at the outpost, they came crying and asking for help.
Egg happened to be there that day, and after hearing their cries, he learned that there was another member of the group waiting for them to go back for rescue at a safe point in the distance. However, they had no ammunition, water, food, and fuel. The entire team was already gone.
It's reached the point where the oil is exhausted.
A woman cried and knelt on the ground begging Egger to save her companions.
After Iger reached out to help the woman, he spoke to her in a gentle manner. We will not provide any help beyond our capabilities. To put it simply, if you want to save people, do it yourself.
If you don’t have supplies, you can trade supplies. If you don’t have anything, you can also sign a pledge contract. For example, if there are four of you, you can pledge three people to work here.
Egger opposed slavery, but still agreed with bonded labor.
Although the landlord's family has no surplus food at the moment, but out of morality and the rivers and lakes are trying to save the people, they can't just ignore the situation.
For some people who don't have much money, they really can't think of any other way besides relying on labor to pay off their debts.
Besides, this is not a permanent contract. You can terminate the contract as long as you earn enough contract money. Just like Guo Furong, as long as she works peacefully for shopkeeper Tong, she can always pay off her debt.
As a result, after Iger patiently talked a lot, the woman stopped crying. Iger's words inspired their awareness.
I saw these people put their heads together and discussed for a while. After that, they took out all their items of trade value and replaced them with fuel.
Afterwards, precious fuel was filled into the car. Full of hope, the car drove towards Jixi Town.
