Chapter 1239 "Lighting" Fuel (23)
"How long does it take?" The convoy opened the distance halfway. Grant looked at the window and asked casually.
"It will take a day to go on the road without stopping. I think it will be a day and a half later when I actually arrived there." The soft voice seemed very well-behaved at this time. With the lights in the armored car, she was still studying the information provided by Osiris.
"Then please inform the remaining members of the team of Vroe, so that they can follow closely. If necessary, they can launch an attack to delay the team's pace. Don't wait until we pass, and we are completely disconnected from each team. But I think the team organized by the Light will not do this, and will definitely keep itself at a suitable distance from other teams. Don't worry about this." As he said, Grant had chosen a comfortable position to lean on the armored vehicle and closed his eyes. "Remember to call me when I rest halfway through, and there are news about the Flame Tribe, or other tribes, please notify me as soon as possible."
"I know, Lord Grant." After that, there was no movement in the armored vehicle, and the friction between the engine and the tires gradually rose, covering them.
In the early morning, a convoy that seemed to have been traveling for a long time was parked at a station on the side of the road. In late summer and autumn approached, it was already cold in the morning. A few steam pipes as thick as an arm were pulled out and connected to the gift car. Behind the station, a few chimneys made of red bricks were surrounded by a few light gray mist, and the dark smoke was surging out from it, even with some unextinguished Mars.
Dudler took the food and water he bought from the station and walked towards the merry car he was riding in with a serious face.
Handing some of the water and food to Tinna, Dudler tore the wrapping paper and ate the fragrant things, but he didn't feel any smell after actually entering it. The only function of the food at this time is to fill their stomachs and ensure that the body's function will not decline when needed.
"No?" Tinna took a sip of water and glanced at the chimneys with black smoke. The black smoke had dyed a small piece of the sky light gray. The lifeless plants around the station wet the coal ash because of the condensed water in the morning, and the color was not so impressive.
Dudler let out a breath and shook his head, "Only this matter was not taken into consideration. Who would have thought that the steam reserves and pressure at this station were not enough to make up for the power of less than ten cars at once. He took the identity of the King of the Kingdom of Chil and asked the highest person in charge of the station staff. He had no choice but to turn on all the stoves and burn them. It is expected that he would have to wait for about two hours. There is really no way, so he can't hurry up."
"When the time comes, let the truck and a team leave first. You lead the team, I will stay here and wait." Tinna said after hearing this, "It has been confirmed that one team has been defeated and is joining the other team. The Thunder Wolf Tribe is moving very quickly, and we have to find a way after we get here, otherwise the pressure will come to the fourth team, and I am afraid that there will always be times when I can't hold on."
As he finished his food, Tinna drank the water he bought and let out a breath, then took the pistol and dagger, "I'll go outside to guard me, you can stay here at the station." As he said that, before Dudler could speak, Tinna had already got out of the car and walked towards the road he came.
"The speed is too slow." In Cassia's eyes, the surrounding scenery is like changing photos in her eyes. Without special observation, she can find their details at the speed of the car at this moment. "The car is still too heavy, should I throw something down?" In the end, she gave up the idea. Cassia was waiting for the enemy to catch up in the back, or saw traces of battle along the way. At that time, it was a good decision to track the enemy.
But the slow speed did make Cassia unable to bear it. Perhaps it was because she was used to her own vehicles on weekdays. Although it was not a high-end product, it was definitely considered a luxury and extremely excellent performance in the world of ordinary people. She did not hike quickly and fell a lot. When she got on the road in the early morning, Cassia judged it.
But he was still patient. He was indeed moving forward at an even speed, and Cassia kept reminding himself.
In the border area, the roads are not good, and there are almost no vehicles coming and going. By 9:30 in the morning, Cassia had not seen anyone else driving the road besides herself. Because there were few vehicles on the road and there was no strong wind recently, Cassia could tell where Tinna and her team were heading.
If there were enemies behind him, he would probably rely on this method to pursue the team. Cassia himself had no good way to clear these traces, so she didn't think about it. At 11 o'clock in the morning, a little angry finally appeared in front of him. A roadside station, several chimneys and small coal smoke were rising out, and several merchandise trucks were filling up steam. What a familiar scene, Cassia sighed, but at this moment it was only limited to sighing, but thought of regret and helpless things.
The sound pulse swept over, not the person in the team.
Cassia did a moment of trimming here, observing the surroundings, and from the traces found, it was determined that the convoy should have stayed here. And there should be no cars passing by here for a long time, but the chimneys were emitting black smoke, which could explain something.
"At least I did not follow the wrong one." Cassia thought. Soon after, he continued to drive forward, and stopped by the roadside at 1:00 in the afternoon.
The artillery shattered half of the road, and there were several artillery craters in the wasteland next to the road. Many warheads were embedded in concrete and looked into the wilderness hundreds of meters away on both sides. You could clearly see an oval brown land. It was the scene caused by bullets smashing the weeds and then hitting the ground and turning up soil.
After getting off the car, Cassia walked over to check it out as if she was walking. More than a dozen corpses were piled on one side, and a layer of weed was simply covered with weeds. Most of them were gunshot wounds, but there were also some traces caused by sharp and cold weapons. After a brief look, they should be mercenaries and bounty hunters. The people on the Fire Alliance, their physical characteristics such as skin and hair, are still somewhat different from those in the small country.
I don’t know how the losses of the organization team were, so it shouldn’t be very serious. Cassia looked at the bullet holes on the ground and dug out a few bullets. From the inclination and direction of the bullet holes, the battle was caused by Tinna and the others to take the initiative to attack, or to discover the enemy first and then attack immediately.
