On a late autumn night, the temperature dropped so much that even if you put on thick autumn clothes, you couldn't stop the cold wind from blowing into your neck. The troops who withdrew from the city during the day finally re-entered the city after the sun went down.
The dark night caused the boxer ants to lurk underground, and the troops marched into the occupied areas without any hindrance, mobilizing the residents who had not yet left to evacuate as soon as possible.
Private cars, buses and trucks continued to drive out of the city, forming a southbound traffic flow.
At midnight, the temperature dropped below freezing. The harsh weather greatly reduced the efficiency of the soldiers. Despite the military's best efforts, it still took two nights to evacuate the remaining occupied areas.
Boxer ants rule the day during the day, and the military can only enter the occupied areas after dark, search for residents stranded there, and try their best to get the residents out of the occupied areas.
In just two days, more than 40,000 innocent people lost their lives. If the action had been taken three to five days earlier, none of this would have happened.
The military has tried its best, and the shells fired alone weigh several hundred tons. However, manpower is sometimes scarce, and the only thing the military can do is to rescue survivors as much as possible.
In the early morning of the third day, there was still some time before sunrise, and the sky and earth were dark. The last batch of residents organized by the military evacuated the city and arrived at a temporary camp in the southern suburbs of Linyi.
It was still early in the sky and only the stars were twinkling in the sky, but Minister Xiao directly issued the order to evacuate without saying a word.
In the past two days, many troops originally stationed near Linyi had withdrawn in advance, leaving only the necessary manpower to organize the evacuation.
After receiving the order, the troops left behind immediately gathered their personnel and equipment, divided them into waves, and retreated in an orderly manner.
When the headquarters was about to evacuate, Ye Han received a new task: to protect the convoy leaving Linyi heading south!
The headquarters was originally built in the command cabin, and the retreat could be completed as long as the personnel were gathered and the vehicles were driven away, but other troops were far from having such a smooth retreat.
Let’s just talk about the tracked self-propelled artillery that has made great achievements in recent days. This thing is based on a tank chassis. Its total weight is more than forty tons, which is only about ten tons lighter than the main battle tank. If such a heavy cannon is allowed to operate on the road by itself
If you run, not only will you not be able to run fast, but the tracks will also damage the road surface.
Only when maneuvering over short distances, tracked military vehicles will run on their own. When it comes to long-distance maneuvers, they will either use railway transportation or use tank transporters. Only in extreme circumstances will tanks be allowed to run on their own.
Dozens of self-propelled artillery vehicles were evacuated from their positions and then carefully driven onto transport vehicles. They could not be evacuated until they were all loaded, which was not as quick as the command headquarters' evacuation.
Even before the headquarters evacuated, the off-road vehicle commanded by Ye Han hung on the tail of the southbound convoy and left Linyi with the convoy.
When the off-road vehicle drove onto the road, the morning star jumped out of the east. In the distant sky in the east, a ray of light had already dispelled the darkness of the night.
The night is about to pass, and dawn is right in front of us. In the morning light, the convoy hurriedly escaping from home slowly drives onto the highway.
However, as soon as the red sun jumped over the horizon, a thin layer of fog appeared around the evacuating convoy. The surrounding visibility dropped rapidly, and the convoy had to lower its altitude and increase the distance between vehicles for safety.
Suddenly there was a harsh sound of tires screeching in the morning fog, followed by a muffled sound of impact.
Ye Han cleverly opened his eyes and stared uneasily at the fog in front of him: "What happened?"
"I don't know." Qiao Hai, who was driving, shook his head.
The red brake light suddenly came on at the rear of the car in front, and Qiao Hai quickly stepped on the brakes.
Xiao Yuan, who was napping in the back, bumped into Zhuo Haoran, held his helmet and raised his head: "Why did you stop?"
Qiao Hai pointed to the front and said nothing. Zhuo Haoran looked around a few times: "Did the fog cause a rear-end collision?"
The visibility at this time is only 50 to 60 meters. If the car in front brakes suddenly, the reaction of the car behind will be slightly slower and a rear-end collision will occur.
"Really." Xiao Yuan leaned back, put the helmet on his face and continued to take a nap.
After a while, the car in front restarted, but at a slower speed. Qiao Hai followed patiently without being impatient.
After driving about a hundred meters, a white car with a severely deformed front appeared in front of everyone, and its two taillights were still flashing.
"Look, what I said!" Zhuo Haoran said proudly.
"I'm really afraid of what will happen." Ye Han whispered.
The off-road vehicle slowly passed around the basically scrapped car. The front windshield had already been hit with two abnormal spider web cracks. There was a motionless person in the front and passenger seats of the car, and their faces were stained red with blood.
, their faces could not be seen clearly, and there were broken glass stained with blood everywhere inside and outside the car.
"Are they dead?" Mo Wen asked anxiously.
"It should be." Ye Han said.
"Do you need to go down and take a look?" Zhuo Haoran asked.
Ye Han hesitated for a moment, nodded and said: "Stop!"
The evacuated convoys were all strangers who had been put together temporarily, and they were survivors who had struggled for a long time under the gangsters' poison and endured the ravages of boxer ants for several days. They had already smoothed their edges in the face of the ruthless reality and hoped to
Such a group of people helping each other through difficulties is simply delusional.
It's not unusual to leave two injured strangers on the side of the road.
The off-road vehicle stopped, and Ye Han and others jumped out. Mo Wen walked carefully to the side of the car, stretched out his fingers and pressed on the side of the driver's neck. After a few seconds, he turned back, looked at everyone and shook his head.
Ye Han pointed to the other side of the car. While looking around, he suddenly saw two obvious brake marks on the back of the car. He turned around and looked back. There were some irregular yellow debris and a pool of unknown liquid on the left and right of the marks.
Some doubts suddenly arose in his mind. The brake marks extended all the way to the bottom of the white car's tires. The braking sound obviously originated from this car. Could it be that the car in front suddenly braked, and the white car couldn't avoid it, and then rear-ended the car after braking suddenly?
Could it be that the car in front of me ran away without even farting?
Ye Han couldn't help but feel an evil fire in his heart. People who had nothing to do with him could just watch indifferently...
"Company commander, look here!" Mo Wen's exclamation interrupted Ye Han. He immediately looked at Mo Wen, only to see Mo Wen stretching his arm and pointing at the front of the car.
"What's going on?" Ye Han jumped over in two steps, and others gathered around him curiously.
Everyone's eyes were focused on the front of the car, and they saw that half of a forearm's thickness was stuck in the grille of the car's face, and it was yellow in color, like a dead branch.
But anyone who has come into contact with a giant locust cannot admit that it is a broken grasshopper leg!
Are there giant insects?
Like a basin of ice water being poured down on his head, Ye Han shivered smartly and shouted at the top of his lungs: "Get in the car, get in the car quickly." To be continued.
