"Why did it come so fast?" Zhou Zhi couldn't help but was stunned, "Didn't the train leave at midnight?"
"We have no choice, we have to climb up!" Naruko Asahara stood up and planned to lean towards the bridge, "Zhang, come with me!"
Damn it! Zhang Zhiyuan knew that Naruko's judgment was right. In fifteen seconds at most, the train would pass through the ambush area, and it would be impossible to catch up with the target with two legs. Their only choice now was to do it as soon as possible
Rush under the bridge, then climb up the short bridge to find a chance to catch the train!
But he also saw that this was no ordinary steam train - they actually had gun posts on the roof, which meant that if one was not careful in climbing, he would be exposed to the other party's gunfire.
"Spread out and get down! Get down, everyone!"
Just then, a familiar voice came from the fog.
That slightly tongue-twisting style instantly identifies him as Anthony!
As soon as he finished speaking, a bright flame suddenly bloomed on the short bridge, like the rising sun in the morning——
Boom!
Then there were three loud noises in a row!
Flames shot up one after another, as if to see off the train. The strong blast wind blew the bushes in the depressions topsy-turvy, and the shattered wooden planks fell like raindrops.
Buzz————————!
Once the bridge deck loses its stability, the first thing to suffer is the rails laid on it.
The steel bar made a dull trembling sound, which was when it could no longer support the train and deformed violently. The right side of the steel behemoth sank suddenly, as if it had sunk into the bridge deck, but its inertia did not allow it to stop.
The heavy car body continued to move forward until the derailed car was completely squeezed out of the low bridge.
Everything happens in a flash of lightning!
Following the afterglow of the explosion, the huge car rushed off the bridge first and plunged into the depression. A large amount of soil and shrubs were shoveled up, forming a rare fountain.
Then comes the body.
Their situation is slightly better. Due to the limited height of the bridge, only two or three carriages fell off the bridge following the front of the car, and the rest still stayed on the bridge. This made besides the original wooden bridge, there was another carriage in the depression.
Twisted steel bridge.
When the train came to a complete standstill, the fog swept in, completely covering its outline in the blink of an eye.
Apparently, the light used to disperse the fog on the front of the car was smashed.
"Suka Bule, do you see, this is my craft, hahahaha!" The Russian suddenly rushed out of the fog and shouted loudly at the other four people.
"Where's your light?" Only then did Zhang Zhiyuan realize that there was almost no light on his teammates.
"I smashed it."
"Ah?" The three of them were greatly surprised.
"How did I know that the exchange list didn't even have a live thing!" Anthony spread his hands, "I wanted to make a short-circuit detonation device, but in the end I could only use gunpowder to lay a detonation line, and the detonation distance was ten meters. It's amazing.
Fortunately, the black powder burns slowly, otherwise I would have no choice but to die along with the railroad tracks! Think about it, I have to stay by the railroad bridge all the time. If I don't smash the lantern, wouldn't it be exposing my whereabouts?"
That's why they couldn't find any trace of the Russians...
It turned out that after the other party set up the explosives, they had been squatting in place, waiting for the moment the train appeared.
"Now that everyone is here, let's go!" Naruko Asahara took off the automatic rifle from her back and specifically told Elodie, "If you don't know how to use a gun, stay away from everyone. Remember when you hear gunshots.
Always take cover."
"That's right, bullets don't have eyes!" Anthony said impatiently, "The next moment is what I'm most looking forward to!"
The four people crossed the paralyzed low bridge and came to the carriage that had fallen off the bridge. The Russians took the lead, kicked open the carriage door, and rushed into the carriage first.
An unpleasant odor hit my face.
"Fuck, they're transporting slaves!"
I saw that there were rows of iron bars in the carriage, separating three-quarters of the space. On the left was the walkway, and on the right was the cage. The cages contained all skinny ordinary people, most of whom were seafarers.
The guards and slave workers obviously had not recovered from the impact just now. They staggered and lay on the ground. When they saw the "players" who broke in, their eyes were filled with fear.
"Who are you...?" A man who looked like a guard asked inarticulately, covering his bleeding forehead. In addition to a leather whip, there were also several empty wine bottles scattered at his feet.
Without saying a word, Anthony stepped forward and knocked the other man to the ground with the butt of his gun. "He should know which carriage the money is in."
"What to do with these people?" Zhou Zhi asked.
"Let them go and create more trouble for Gaotian Mining." Zhang Zhiyuan immediately decided, "Let's look for it. The key should be nearby."
Soon, the key was found by Naruko Asahara.
However, what surprised everyone was that even if the iron door was opened, no one dared to come out. The two sides stared at each other through the railings, and the atmosphere was a little tense for a while.
"Run quickly, why are you all so stupid?" Zhang Zhiyuan urged.
But the scolding made the prisoner shrink back, with a hint of fear on his face.
"Let me do it."
Suddenly Elodie spoke.
She glanced at everyone for a while, then stepped into a cage.
Naruko Asahara frowned and wanted to follow, but she stopped her with her hand.
"What does she want to do?" Zhou Zhi couldn't help but asked in a low voice.
Zhang Zhiyuan shook his head, realizing that he really couldn't see through this girl who looked to be only sixteen or seventeen years old.
I saw Elodie stop in front of an equally young Tritonian, and reached out to touch his head, "I know you are a brave person, but I was panicked for a moment and didn't know what to do, so
I will help you - you have two choices now, one is to take everyone out of danger, and the other is to do nothing and watch everyone miss this only opportunity. So tell me,
What are your options?"
Elodie's voice was not loud, but everyone could hear it clearly. Moreover, there seemed to be a magical power in the girl's words, which made people feel relaxed and peaceful.
Even Anthony's movements of hitting people were a bit slow.
After a few seconds of silence, the Triton spoke for the first time, "Can you really escape?"
"Go back along the railway, and when the fog clears, turn west - there's a beach there where you can escape back to the city."
The boy stared at her for a moment, as if he had made up his mind. Then he whistled three times, waved his arms to the people in the cage, and said, "Everyone, follow me!"
An incredible thing happened. The slave workers who were huddled just now suddenly seemed to have a backbone and began to move closer to the prison door. Under the leadership of the boy, they ran out of the prison one by one. Although they looked at Zhang Zhiyuan and others.
There was still fear in his eyes, but he was no longer as guarded as before.
"How...how did you do it?" Zhou Zhi asked in surprise.
"I have spent some time in the slums before, and I have had deeper contact with the people there." Elodie whispered back, "The more people who have nothing gather together, the easier it is for a leader to emerge. As long as you find this
If you negotiate with people, you will get twice the result with half the effort. Of course... the leaders are not necessarily fierce and aggressive people. The specific situation must be dealt with in detail. For example, for the Triton boy just now, it would be better to comfort first and then encourage.
Effect."
Zhou Zhi was stunned for a while after hearing this, "You are too awesome!"
"Why is it that the more you have nothing, the easier it is for a leader to emerge?" Naruko Asahara expressed confusion.
"...Because they are already very weak," Elodie murmured as she looked at the people who were escaping from the carriage. "They are just like a flock of sheep in danger. If they don't get together, they will die."
At this time, Anthony dragged the guard with his face covered in blood to the four of them, "I asked, the captain's room is in the eighth car, and we have to move forward four cars."
"Hurry up, we don't have much time." Zhang Zhiyuan nodded.
"That's right." Anthony raised the corner of his mouth, then pulled out the dagger and inserted it into the guard's heart!
