The two chatted and turned several turns. A brand new road appeared in front of them, which led directly to a valley. The valley was not deep, and they could see the bottom at a glance. There was a huge entrance to the mountainside, and there was a team of people.
There is a huge sign next to the sentry post.
What is written above is not the New Brissan Tractor Terminal, but an important military area. No one is allowed to enter.
If Bud hadn't led the way, Jason would never have thought of the station.
Jason couldn't help but widen his eyes and said: "The tractor terminal is not in the middle of the mountain, right? I have passed by here twice just now."
"Have you passed by twice?" Bud also widened his eyes, "Didn't you see the sentry there? Why didn't you go and ask?"
"Ahem...isn't this embarrassing?" Jason showed a shy smile, "If I don't meet the superior and come around next time, I might have to ask."
"I didn't expect that brother still has the temperament of asking for nothing." Bud pointed at the other party and said with a thumbs up, "This kind of temperament is definitely beneficial when engaging in scientific research that is rooted in the ground, but running outside is more difficult than
Ordinary people spend too much energy. We are all comrades serving the people, so what is there to be embarrassed about? Efficiency is the first priority."
"Sir, what you taught me is that I will pay attention to it next time." Jason looked like he was following the instructions carefully.
"It's just speaking from experience, but I prefer your kind of personality that doesn't ask for anything from others." Jason laughed loudly, "Because I have the same temperament myself, and I understand all the principles, but when it comes to actually doing it, I still do it the same way.
"
A sentry came up to greet the two men and asked: "Are the two comrades going to take the tractor to the northern fortress?"
Bud took out his corresponding documents with ease, and at the same time kindly reminded Jason: "ID card, work certificate and letter of introduction to work in the northern fortress, these three are necessary for riding a magic tractor. Don't tell me you forgot
It’s very troublesome to bring anything less.”
"Oh..." Jason nodded repeatedly and replied while hurriedly taking out his ID, "I haven't forgotten this. Before I left, the teacher told me that it will be used in many places. How dare you forget?"
In addition to the three major documents, Captain Bud also handed over small notebooks.
Jensen noticed that after the guard took the small notebook, his expression changed slightly. Even the speed of reviewing Captain Bader's corresponding documents was much faster, and the focus of the review was obviously on his own relevant information.
After reviewing it, the sentry solemnly stamped a red seal on Captain Bader's notebook before handing it back.
When Jason received it, he found that there was not only a small notebook identical to Captain Bud's on the information, but also a brown paper bag.
Although Jason was full of questions, he didn't ask any more questions.
The sentry gave them a standard military salute and said: "Captain Bader, Second Lieutenant Johnson, welcome to take the special train from New Brissan to the Northern Fortress. The train will start at half past two. Please take your seats in time and don't miss it."
Got the train.”
"Thank you." Captain Bud returned a standard military salute and said with a smile, "When will a sign be put up here at the terminal? People who take the bus for the first time will always find it easy to lose their way."
"You two are not traveling together?" The staff at the tractor terminal immediately reacted and said apologetically to Jason, "I'm sorry, I thought the two were traveling together. In this case, here are some precautions for riding a tractor
, I also need to emphasize this to the second lieutenant."
"It doesn't matter." Captain Bud said with a smile, "Although we didn't come together, we have the same destination. I can just explain these issues to him on the way."
"Then I'll trouble you, Captain." The sentry replied with a smile to Bud's previous question, "The signs for the tractor terminal will naturally be set up after they are put into formal operation. For now, safety and confidentiality are the top priority. After all, outside
The situation is very tense, especially when our battleship's cannon fired on the Jacob River, everyone in the alliance became red-eyed and sent rats frantically into our territory. Our tractor is not as important as the cannon.
There should still be confidentiality measures in place, don’t you think so?”
"This is also the reason. These mice are really annoying. Now they not only want to peek at our high-end technologies such as artillery and tractors, but they even make it difficult to farm the land. If you ask me, they are just a bunch of cheap guys. We are using those things.
Those taught openly by First International College must use those sneaky methods." Captain Bud nodded in agreement.
The sentry couldn't help but said in awe: "I didn't expect the captain to be a top student from the academy. I'm disrespectful. So, do you mean there are more rats on the Danube Plain?"
"It's no longer a matter of too much or too little, but overflowing." A hint of gloom flashed across Captain Bud's face, "There are still some natural barriers blocking the mountain. Over there on the Donau Plain, there are holes everywhere. In addition, recently,
In the past two years, the number of students from other military leaders in the First International Academy has increased significantly. Most of them are noble children who do not know whether they are real or fake. They often bring more than a dozen slaves here. Who knows how many of them are spies sent from other territories. If
It's okay to say that those slaves will be chopped off if caught. What's more troublesome is the noble children. Even though they know they have problems, for the sake of the overall situation, they have to be sent back."
"They just underestimated our capacity and didn't believe that what was taught in First International College was indistinguishable. We had to see it with our own eyes." Second Lieutenant Johnson on the side couldn't help but interjected.
"Maybe!" Captain Bader shrugged.
"I agree with what my captain said," the sentry said with a smile, "We call this the troubles of happiness."
"The troubles of happiness? How to talk about it?" Bud looked interested.
"For others to peek at us, it means that we are strong enough and our technology is advanced enough. If we blindly peek at others through eagle eyes, it means that we are far behind others. Sir, do you want other territories to peek at us, or do we?
To peek into other territories?" the sentry imitated a mature tone.
"It makes sense, it makes so damn sense. This is indeed the trouble of happiness. Let's just be surrounded by this trouble!" Captain Bud laughed and said, "By the way, what do you call brother? What are your parents?
What do you call him? If you have a chance, you have to pay a visit to such an interesting person."
"Rolis, Sergeant Rolis has met your commander." The sentry saluted again and said, "My commander is Lieutenant Colbert. If we can meet a knowledgeable person like our commander, our lieutenant will be very happy."
"It's getting late, we still have to catch the tractor, so I won't bother you. When I come back from the northern fortress, I will definitely pay a visit if it's convenient." Bud said with a smile.
"Please, sirs." Luo Lisi made a letting go gesture and made way for the two of them.
The underground passage is not as dark as imagined. Magic lamps are inlaid at the top of the tunnel in an orderly manner, illuminating the place as if it were daytime.
After passing the guard post, Jensen breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I didn't expect the inspection of tractor-trailers to be so strict."
"It's normal. After all, the tractor is another secret weapon of our military leader." Bud shrugged and said, "The news has been particularly tight recently. I heard that a month ago, someone sneaked in and wanted to secretly sabotage the tractor. Fortunately, he was
If we see through it, otherwise we don’t know what kind of tragedy it will lead to!”
"Is there such a thing?" Lieutenant Jensen looked surprised. "How did those saboteurs get in? Where did they get their ID cards, work certificates and letters of introduction?"
"A big tree attracts the wind." Bud shrugged and said, "Many forces are eyeing us, not from our military exercises on the Jacob River, but when we overthrew the Kingsley family on the Donau River.
Let’s start. Our territory has integrated so many races over the years. It is inevitable that there will be omissions, which will allow them to take advantage of them and plant their seeds among us. These people are not the most hateful.”
"Aren't these people hateful? They are all trying to steal the secrets of our military leaders." Second Lieutenant Jensen said indignantly, "If you ask me, if you catch such people, every one of them will be chopped off.
It’s the easiest thing to do.”
"I said these people are not the most hateful. Of course I have my own reasons. After all, they come with a purpose. They are people from other territories and have objects of allegiance. The two sides have been enemies from the beginning, but their fighting methods are different.
"Bard gritted his teeth and said, "What I hate most are those bastards who grew up eating the food of military leaders, but in order to satisfy their own desires, they betrayed their compatriots and military leaders. Secondly, those bastards who remain servile.
, the Andis people, even though their own race has risen, still work hard for others.”
"Sir, when you say this, the latter two are more hateful." Jason smiled and changed the subject, "Let's not discuss such a heavy topic. I still have two things to ask, sir."
"I'm sorry, I lost my composure and unknowingly went too deep into this topic." Captain Bader calmed down and said, "If you have any questions, just ask."
"That's it. What's the use of it?" Jason asked, holding up his new little red book.
"This is a tractor license. It briefly records personal information and the number of times the tractor has been used. Although this thing can be thrown away as a one-time thing, I personally recommend keeping it until the next use, because this change of direction
Proof, good proof that you've been on a tractor-trailer before, the entry and exit review will be a lot easier," Bud explained.
"No wonder." Jason suddenly realized it and pointed at the brown paper bag and said, "What is this for? Why didn't they prepare it for the commander?"
"That's a vomit bag." Bud replied, "Not everyone can adapt to the speed of a tractor-trailer as soon as they get on, especially some first-time passengers who can't stand vomiting. This is prepared for this situation.
, it would be best if it can be used. If it cannot be used, someone will recycle it after arriving at the station. I have riding experience and have not had any reactions in this regard. Naturally, there is no need to prepare. This is the benefit of the old tractor license. Arrive at the station.
Someone will check the record for you later. Next time you ride, you only need to show your old certificate and it will be clear at a glance without asking any questions."
"It's really thoughtful." Jason sighed.
"This is natural." Bud smiled proudly.
After passing the underground tunnel, which was only less than ten meters away, Jason felt his eyes light up. A huge space appeared in front of them. They could see that the place was full of people, and countless people and carriages were coming in and out. Large quantities of goods are loaded onto the steel behemoth that is tens of meters long.
That steel behemoth was like a legless centipede, lying on the track segment by segment. The cargo hauled by more than a dozen horse-drawn carriages could not even fill one carriage.
There are dozens of Kentana barbarians who are unusual in stature and are engaged in loading and unloading work.
As expected of a race famous for its strength, ordinary people would carry a bag with one hand and throw it onto the tractor very easily.
Second Lieutenant Jensen exclaimed: "This is the New Bressan Tractor Station. I didn't expect that the entire mountain was hollowed out."
"Shocking, right?" Bud laughed loudly, "I was really shocked when I came here for the first time, but what was even more shocking was the fact that our military leaders not only hollowed out the belly of a mountain, but also Countless seats have been hollowed out, let's go, the goods will be loaded soon, and the tractor will leave on time and won't wait for us."
"Okay! Okay! Okay!" Second Lieutenant Jensen nodded repeatedly, "Thankfully I met the commander this time, otherwise I don't know what kind of chaos we would have been in!"
"It will be fine once you make more trips and get familiar with it." Bud said in a tone like someone who has experienced it before.
"I'm afraid it will be difficult." Lieutenant Jensen shook his head and said, "My job is to be stationed at the farm on the Donau Plain to conduct experiments on the promotion of magic crops in normal land. Unless I go to the magic manor here in the Northern Fortress to inspect new Seeds, otherwise there would be no chance of coming here, let alone frequent tractor-trailer rides.”
"Who said you have to go to the Northern Fortress to take a tractor? I believe it won't be long before tractors will be opened from Brothers Harbor to New Brissan, Green City to Brothers Harbor, or Green City directly to New Brissan or the Northern Fortress. It is possible that it will become the most common tool in the future." Bud boldly guessed,
"The most common tool? Is this possible?" Jason felt like he was listening to a fairy tale.
"What's impossible? Since the first one can be built, the second one can be built naturally. Even if it fails this year, what about next year or the year after that? Our military leaders have made every effort, but it will only take eighteen years, not to mention the eighteenth year. Years ago, let's say ten years ago, could you have imagined what you saw today?" Bud was talking enthusiastically, and his words were full of pride.
"No." Jason shook his head.
"Then can you imagine what it will be like ten years from now?" Bud asked again.
"No." Jason shook his head again. He could not imagine what the Yong Ye Army Leader would develop into in five years, let alone ten years.
"That's it." Bud chuckled, "According to the development of our military leadership, we can't imagine it even if we exhaust our imagination. Why not set our expectations a little higher?"
"I've learned a lesson." Lieutenant Jensen looked like he had gained a lot, which made Bud's conversation even more interesting.
The two boarded the train together, not feeling the passage of time at all, until a sweet female voice came from the loudspeaker, "The 103 tractor train from New Brissan to the Northern Fortress has ten minutes to go. Please work." Personnel are conducting final inspections, and passengers taking the train are asked to board the train as soon as possible."
