"Excellence" Hong Tao ran over to pick up the trash without interest, sat up and took out a cigarette, but couldn't find his lips after a few times of sticking.
These swarms of black bees are too insignificant, looking for soft places to sting. Now I can no longer feel the existence of my lips and eyelids. My face, neck, wrists, and scalp are hot and painful as if they were on fire.
? When Maitijiang and Xu Xiaoman arrived carrying a stretcher, Hong Tao got off the ancient plank road, ran to the valley to wash his face with ice water, and then pushed the stretcher up to the small platform of the jade mine.
No wonder Zhang Weiping rushed to the mining hut regardless of the black bee sting. The number of seizures this time is indeed considerable. In addition to the whole box of bullets, grenades, military coats, compressed biscuits, and 15 camels. In fact, there are more than 20 peaks, but during the exchange of fire, 3 peaks were killed and injured, and several peaks were scared away.
Now it's all right, if you tie all the luggage on the back of the camel, it will be rich for one person to ride another. But I can't go right away, because it's getting dark, and even with camels to travel, it's a risky job to drive overnight in the mountains.
If the danger of encountering the adjudicator is included, even Zhang Weiping, who was eager to go back, had to agree to rest in the mining hut for the night.
But Maitijiang was not idle. He insisted on taking three camels back to the southern tip of the glacier overnight to bring back the weapons and equipment discarded last night. It seems that the logistical supply of the rebel army is indeed very tight. Using things is worse than killing them.
Hong Tao didn't stop him, he could do as much as he could, as long as he didn't let himself run errands back and forth. Anyway, there will be camels for transportation during the day tomorrow, and it will not affect a few hours of sleep.
"Mr. Zhang, do you think these adjudicators are normal?" However, he has some doubts about the adjudicators he met this time. If the adjudicators in southern Xinjiang are so elite and have sufficient supplies and sharp weapons, the rebel army may not be able to survive today. All must be exterminated.
"Did the Redeemer build the Duku Highway?" Hearing this question, Zhang Weiping, who was still immersed in the mood of the poor getting rich, finally calmed down a bit, thought about it, and gave a wild guess, and finished. Even he himself didn't quite believe it.
"As far as I know, the Redeemer has no plan to clean up the Duku Highway!" The person who is most qualified to answer this question is neither Zhang Weiping nor Hong Tao, nor Xu Xiaoman, but Zhu Ma. After seeing Hong Tao's questioning eyes, she immediately gave an affirmative answer.
"Well, I've been to that road. Just clearing the snow requires a lot of construction machinery. If there is a plan, it shouldn't be implemented in winter. This batch of adjudicators is very different from what you usually encounter. There is a bit too much equipment and luggage. Right?"
With Zhuma's commentary, Hong Tao felt more confident. The number of times he met Cheng Jian's judges was not many, and this time it was only three or four times. Rich Zhang Weiping and Xu Xiaoman.
"It is indeed a bit too much. The base of the judges in southern Xinjiang is in Qiuci. In fact, their supplies are not very abundant. Most of the time they have to go to the ruins of the city to fight against zombies to search for usable items. Birzes Uncle, do you think there is something weird here?"
Xu Xiaoman and Zhang Weiping looked at each other, and she nodded to admit the judgment, but she didn't understand the intention of specifically mentioning this abnormal phenomenon. Wouldn't it be better to seize more luggage?
"They are likely to be a special task force, and it is not accidental that they are here" Hong Tao would not pay attention to these rags, except for the hand grenades that are still useful, the rest will not be given away.
What he was thinking about was another question. Normally, Xu Xiaoman's response team's actions should be carried out in secret, and he would definitely not let the adjudicator know with great fanfare. Even if it is accidentally exposed, the adjudicator will not have time to organize such a well-equipped and well-supplied army.
Judging from the amount of supplies carried by the three Judgment teams, they are prepared to be stationed for a long time. In other words, did Xu Xiaoman and others show up? These adjudicators are all ready to take root in the valley, and they will live for at least half a month. Why is this?
"Since we can calculate the approximate time for you to cross the Tianshan Mountains, the Redeemer should also be able to calculate it." Zhang Weiping felt that this problem was not a problem, so he took a special look at Zhuma to remind Hong Tao not to forget this woman identity of.
"When did you enter the river valley?" Hong Tao nodded thoughtfully, as if accepting the possibility, but he still didn't quite give up.
"Today isthe 15th. We set off from Baishui City on the 11th and entered the river valley at noon on the 12th. We first stayed in the quarry below for 2 nights. We didn't wait for you before walking up for another day. We planned to go to the glacier Take a look around." Although Zhang Weiping didn't quite understand the intention of asking, he still calculated the exact time with his fingers.
"That is to say, this group of adjudicators will not enter the river valley until the 14th at the earliest, right?"
Hong Tao took out the map drawn by Crimea and calculated roughly. It is more than 40 kilometers from the southern end of the glacier to the south exit of the Murzat River Valley, and it is a full 35 kilometers from the quarry that Zhang Weiping just mentioned.
If you come early, you will definitely meet at the quarry; if you come late, there will be no encounter at the southern tip of the glacier. These adjudicators were quite well prepared, and they didn't look like patrols that appeared by chance, they should have come prepared.
"It's about the same in terms of distance. They travel faster with camels, and they can cover this distance in half a day." Zhang Weiping stretched out his head and leaned over to look at the map, affirming Hong Tao's calculation results.
"But they came late If it is calculated according to this time, they will not be able to block us 100%." ??Being affirmed by others should be something to be happy about, but Hong Tao started shaking his head again, and curled his lips.
"" Zhang Weiping looked at Xu Xiaoman in puzzlement, who also frowned and looked puzzled, and then turned his gaze to Hong Tao together.
"It's really wrong. The Redeemer didn't know that Teacher Fang and I were injured. According to the original plan, they would leave the valley before the 12th at the latest. You came at a more suitable time, and you will meet us at the exit of the valley, but they were late for a whole day More than a day."
As the saying goes, the onlooker knows the truth. Xu Xiaoman and Zhang Weiping did not understand the purpose of Hong Tao's analysis, but Zhuma, who had been listening to the story, suddenly interrupted and revealed the answer with the simplest description.
"Very few people travel this road, they must have miscalculated" Zhang Weiping still didn't understand, and was still struggling with the distance.
"Uncle, do you suspect that they came with us?" Xu Xiaoman was worthy of being a spy, and his mind was relatively flexible, so he finally figured out something.
"You shouldn't use the word follow. To be precise, it's chasing. They came here after knowing your whereabouts!" Hong Tao began to nod, but he was not satisfied with Xu Xiaoman's wording, so he changed the word.
"Look, it is less than 200 kilometers from Qiuci City to the exit of the river valley, and less than 90 kilometers from Baishui City to the exit of the river valley. You depart from Baishui City on the 11th and arrive on the 12th. They depart from Qiuci City on the 12th and arrive on the 14th. a perfect fit!"
Seeing that the eyes of the two rebel members were still unclear, Hong Tao didn't need to ask questions to enlighten him, so he broke them apart and said clearly. Compared with them, Zhang Ke, Zhou Yuan, and Lin Na's brains that can draw inferences from one instance to another are really rare.
"What do you mean?" Zhang Weiping still didn't understand, as if it was intended to make Hong Tao miss his old friend even more, but seeing Xu Xiaoman biting his lip and nodding slightly, he couldn't help asking.
"The news has leaked out. It's from within usit's from the top!" Xu Xiaoman first glanced at Hong Tao apologetically, then put away the helplessness in his eyes, and turned his head to explain seriously.
"But" Zhang Weiping finally understood, but he didn't believe it, and wanted to talk about it with his eyes wide open.
"Mr. Zhang, I won't discuss this matter beforehand. I will report the details to the headquarters in person after I go back. Uncle Bizes, thank you very much for your reminder. What should we do next?"
Xu Xiaoman obviously doesn't want to make too many excuses on this issue, maybe she already has a suspicious candidate in her heart, but it is inconvenient for outsiders to reveal too many details of the high-level rebel army, maybe she is going to ask her superiors or Zhou Yuan for instructions to make a statement
