In the logistics and transportation system that Logan is responsible for maintaining, a convoy is heading from Fort Collins, Colorado to Salt Lake City. The convoy consists of more than a dozen large heavy-duty trucks, speeding westward on Interstate 80, surrounded by
Vast stretches of wilderness.
The hinterland of the United States often has endless flat terrain, with highways extending in all directions, and the feeling of driving at high speed is indeed refreshing. This convoy carries the goods purchased by the Aurora Legion from Fort Collins, and will be transported to Salt Lake City for transfer to Seattle for shipment.
More than a dozen trucks opened a distance of more than one kilometer. The leader was a light armored vehicle. The 20mm machine gun on the vehicle was enough to scare the average kid. Inside the armored vehicle, Wen Tianyu, who was fully armed, felt hot and irritated, but there was nothing he could do about it.
.
As a Chinese who followed Zhou Qingfeng from Africa to Cuba, Wen Tianyu has always been unknown in the Aurora Corps. Unlike Liu Meng who suddenly became the commander of the missile brigade after arriving in the Corps, he has been responsible for the training of new recruits as a veteran.
Wen Tianyu was transferred from his military training post until the end of the world when the local flower cultivation country transferred a large number of manpower to Mexico to support Zhou Qingfeng. He wanted to continue to follow Zhou Qingfeng out, but he was assigned to work as an armed escort in North America.
"This is such a fucking job. It's boring, boring, and extremely uncomfortable." Wen Tianyu speaks good English and leads a group of escort team members with mixed races, including white, black and Latin Americans. Public security in North America is not very good, and he
The mission is to safely transport all kinds of goods needed by the legion.
The space in the armored vehicle was limited, and the escort team members were crowded together and were covered in sweat and odor. Some people couldn't bear it and simply took off their body armor to feel more relaxed. Wen Tianyu also wanted to take it off, but he was the captain after all, so it would be bad if he was too casual.
"Put on your body armor." Wen Tianyu ordered, "We may be in danger at any time."
The person who took off the bulletproof vest was a white man. He was usually careless and a bit disobedient. Especially after arriving in the United States, he felt more at home. He didn't bother to listen to Tianyu's order and asked instead: "Wen, why do you want to transport those electronic waste away?"
?Do you need those things?"
More than a dozen trucks contained damaged supercomputer components. It was unknown where they were obtained. They looked shabby and worthless, but the Legion still paid a high price to acquire them.
This matter seems very silly to many Americans, but Wen Tianyu knows that this is the plan formulated by his boss - no high-tech products will be left behind, not even the wreckage.
Because technology needs to be passed down, if there is no inheritance, there still has to be a reference. Now the 'inheritance' and 'reference' have all been moved away.
Wen Tianyu did not explain, but ordered again: "We need it. I say again, put on your body armor, this will save your life."
The white man laughed loudly, wanting to say that Wen Tianyu was making too much of a fuss. But before his laughter ended, the armored car suddenly shook violently, and Wen Tianyu felt his body fly into the air and hit the roof of the car.
The seat belt on the seat pulled Wen Tianyu's body, but the violent impact still made him rock back and forth like a boat in a stormy sea. The pulling of the seat belt caused severe pain in his chest, and his internal organs were oppressed, and his breath
The discomfort caused him to faint.
Outside the armored vehicle, a roadside bomb exploded. The air wave lifted up the vehicle body, which weighed more than ten tons, causing it to fly up like a toy, crash down, and roll over, leaving more than 20 meters of traces on the ground.
Wrapped in smoke and dust.
When the explosion occurred, the convoy trucks behind were immediately panicked. More than a dozen truck drivers either twisted the steering wheel to avoid it, braked to stop, or turned around and ran away. The violent movements of the vehicle body often caused imbalance, and some trucks overturned and overturned.
The ground is rolling.
In the vast wind and sand, the entire convoy suddenly became a mess.
A few minutes after the explosion, Wen Tianyu felt someone pouring water on his face. He opened his eyes and saw a black man giving him first aid. He himself had been removed from the body of the armored vehicle and was lying on the sand.
"How many people are still alive?" Don't think too much, it was an attack. As soon as Wen Tianyu spoke, he felt pain in his chest, and his mouth was filled with the smell of blood. He must have been injured in the chest and abdomen and vomited blood.
"The driver's neck was twisted in the roll, the deputy captain's head was smashed, and the others had different injuries. Boss, you were the most seriously injured, probably a broken rib. We are worried that moving you will cause more damage.
I can only let you lie flat on your back." The black subordinate said.
The scene after the explosion was very quiet, with only the sound of wind in the wilderness. The enemy did not know where he was, and the danger had not left. Wen Tianyu knew that he could not move casually because his ribs were broken, otherwise he would just wait until the broken ribs were inserted into his chest.
I can wait to die.
"Report to the data center and ask for support." Wen Tianyu said.
"The message has been sent," the black man said.
"Go find other survivors and gather the convoy members together." Wen Tianyu ordered again.
"I've already sent someone there." The black man nodded again.
Wen Tianyu was so conscious after being bombed, which made Wen Tianyu look at his black subordinates with admiration. He finally said: "Give me a dose of therapeutic injection, I don't want to die yet. What is your name?"
"Durant."
"Durant, you performed very well. Come and take over my command."
The treatment did not have a very good effect on Wen Tianyu's fracture, but at least it relieved his internal bleeding. He could only lie on the ground and watch the black man commanding the team to wait for help.
The white subordinate who had taken off his body armor also regained his composure. He didn't seem to want to accept an order from a black man, so he stood up and argued for a few words. A bullet fired from a distance and hit him directly in the chest, killing him on the spot.
.
The body fell down, and everyone in the convoy immediately held their heads and looked for cover. Wen Tianyu listened to the time when the gunfire came, and silently calculated the distance of the enemy shooter. He looked at the bleeding chest of the white subordinate, and silently cursed: "Bullet
It flew from at least 500 meters away, and you might still be able to survive wearing a body armor."
Obviously, the ambushing enemy had snipers. The remaining members of the convoy could only hide behind trucks and armored vehicles one after another, and occasionally took a look without daring to stay too long.
Too passive...
However, although Wen Tianyu was caught off guard by the bombing, the black man was quite smart and used the walkie-talkie to contact the entire convoy to form defensive firepower and withstood multiple attacks from unknown enemies.
In the wilderness, there are many silhouettes of people hundreds of meters away, and occasionally you can see a few enemies running back and forth. However, the opponent has no other offensive tactics except planting roadside bombs, and the fight is not determined. After several exchanges of fire, the opponent himself
I was scared first.
Two hours later, several CV-22 tilt-wing aircraft from Salt Lake City arrived at the incident site and picked up the remaining members of the convoy and the bodies of the victims.
At this time, there was really only the sound of wind in the entire wilderness. A few guys with telescopes appeared from behind a hill in the distance. One of them cursed loudly: "Tony Parker, this is what you said can make us make a fortune."
Legion convoy? What they transport is just a bunch of junk."
‘Little bastard’ Tony Parker also observed with binoculars from behind the hill. After confirming that all the convoy members had evacuated, he personally rode an off-road motorcycle to an overturned truck.
A container pulled by a truck fell to the ground and fell apart, revealing the goods inside. Tony Parker tore open the iron sheet of the container, flipped through a pile of useless electronic devices inside, and frowned, "Damn it.
Victor Hugo, what is he doing collecting all this garbage?”
