518 The ruthless water and fire

In fact, Tian Yu doesn't think there is anything evil in setting fire to the mountains. It is more kind to burn the enemy to death than to tie him to a telegraph pole and burn him to death after being caught. If a person can't cherish his own life, how can he value others?

Woolen cloth.

The words I just said to irritate Zhang Ke were just out of envy and jealousy, and there should be no hatred. Young officials like Zhang Ke are not uncommon in the East Asia Alliance, but they are favored by senior officials for training in their early twenties, and they also serve as founding veterans.

Yes, it’s really the only time a scorpion poops!

But this guy is a bit aloof, he doesn't usually hang out in social circles, and he is extremely picky about women. Except for some scandals with Lan Ling'er a few years ago, he seems to have never set his sights on any other unmarried girl.

She will inevitably have some opinions.

"...Do you smell it? There seems to be a fragrance..." Seeing that Zhang Ke didn't follow his topic, Tian Yu simply raised his nose and looked like he was sniffing around. Not to mention, this female spy is quite fun to be cute.

Yes, his facial expression is very much like that of a prairie dog.

"Hahaha..." Both men were amused by Tian Yu's appearance and laughed together.

"It seems to smell like pine oil...Buddha, mountain fire...Look, there is smoke over there!" But as soon as the laughter left his lips, Kawahaya's smile froze on his face, he also shrugged his nose and turned around.

And he stared behind him with a weird expression.

"Fuck...I'm so open-mouthed! Wacker, President Wacker...quickly, you two take our people and retreat quickly, I'll notify Wacker!" Zhang Ke followed Kawahao's eyes and turned his head.

, his expression froze immediately. After a few seconds, he suddenly came to life, shouting, screaming, jumping and running forward like crazy.

"No, you can't go back the same way. You can never outrun the wildfire on the windward slope with just two legs. Go up the ridge and climb over the ridge to the leeward slope as quickly as possible. Only then can you survive!"

Kawazao grabbed Zhang Ke and raised doubts about the order just given. Zhang Ke is the person in charge of the observation team. If he does not change the order, no one can lead the team to change the route without authorization. If something goes wrong if you disobey the order, you will be fully responsible.

Even if nothing happens, you will have to go to court-martial.

"Okay, the observation group is under your command for the time being. Run quickly, I will catch up later!" Zhang Ke really doesn't have much experience in mountain warfare, but he has one advantage: he is willing to listen to the advice of professionals, even in front of his subordinates.

There is no shame in face.

Immediately, he clearly handed over the command to Kazuo Kawahaya, and then ran forward while shouting. Unfortunately, none of the judges in gray robes were willing to listen to him, and they were still marching at the speed of a rapid march.

It was a rout, a huge rout. There was not a single enemy behind them, but dozens of adjudicators and a few soldiers in black ran faster than rabbits. It was no longer necessary to describe them as being able to escape, they were simply rolling and crawling.

In order to increase the speed of climbing the mountain, I threw away all the weapons and ammunition, drinking water, food, and cold-weather clothing. I used my hands and feet to run up the mountain and forest as hard as I could. While running, I looked up through the gaps in the trees to see the distant skyline.

, as long as you climb over the winding ridge, you can avoid the fire dragon sweeping behind you!

In less than ten minutes from the time Kawahaya Kazuo noticed a wisp of smoke rising from the southwest to the time Wacker gave the order for all troops to retreat, the wisp of smoke had already turned into a black smoke column.

After half an hour, the smoke column that originally had only two points became a line. Although the flames were not yet visible, the mountain wind blowing from the southwest had become warm, and burning ashes fell from the sky from time to time.

An hour and a half later, the smoke sweeping in from bottom to top was already making people cough and unable to keep their eyes open. The winding lines of fire were devouring the tall fir trees one by one. The thick branches were licked by tongues of flames.

Then it was like a thin match, burned into a black stick in a few dozen seconds, with no branches or leaves.

The most terrifying thing is the violent wind caused by negative pressure. The air is heated to several hundred degrees by the fire and then rises rapidly. The surrounding air sweeps in at almost the same speed to fill the gap, causing the originally small wind force to increase several times in an instant.

The wind borrowed the power of the fire, and the fire borrowed the power of the wind! When the sky was getting dark, the fire had already licked the ridgeline, and then slowed down slightly. The increase in altitude lowered the temperature, the sparse forest reduced the combustibles, and the wind weakened, so it lost its momentum.

However, the fire heading eastward along the hillside did not slow down. Under the dark night, it was bright and dim, and it took only one cigarette to cross a valley and climb up the other side of the hillside.

Compared with the arbiter who was escaping in a hurry, Hong Tao and the others had much more free time. At the moment, they were eating dinner outside a village near the border between China and Kazakhstan. There were traces of zombie activity in the village, and Hong Tao had no intention of going in. There happened to be a village in the north of the village.

The yards at border posts and the like were left empty and were simply requisitioned temporarily.

"Biges, if there is a strong wind at night, the fire may burn across the Yizhao Highway to Bagua City. There are pastures over there!"

After eating and drinking, he leaned back on the wooden bed and rested his legs fully. The kind gene in Fang Wenlin's body was also ready to activate, and he began to think about issues beyond the scope of personal survival.

Hong Tao was not satisfied with eating dry food every day. It was best to save those easy-to-carry foods for actual mountain climbing, so he caught two prairie dogs and roasted them while he was going down the mountain. He was sipping the meat while eating it.

Drinking by yourself.

What, you can't light a fire at night for fear of being discovered by the enemy? No more, at least tonight you can light a fire casually. Unless the enemies are wearing fireproof bricks, they won't care about the light of the fire.

However, Fang Wenlin and Zhumabai didn't eat a bite of meat, and they both said in unison that this kind of animal was easily infected with pneumonic plague, the Black Death that almost wiped out Europe, and advised Hong Tao not to eat it.

Can it be done? Hong Tao has been in Xinjiang Province for eight years. He has tasted almost every wild animal he can meet, including snow leopards, black bears and golden eagles. Then he summed up a recipe. The most delicious meat is often not what it looks like on the surface.

The animals that look very majestic are actually very inconspicuous marmots and badgers.

"Hey...ha...yeah, what have I done to save you from being such a burden? Why do you blame me for being the first savior when it doesn't work? Bah!"

He spit out a bone from his mouth and drank up the bottle cap in one gulp. Well, that's about it for today, one, two, five, and I'll keep the rest for later. I only gave verbal criticism to Fang Wenlin for his nonsense.

This lame college teacher performed very well today and only rested three or four times more on the way over the mountains. Although sometimes his words were not pleasant to the ears, it was fair to say that neither reward nor punishment was equal to the merits and demerits.

"They broke one of my legs and wanted to kidnap Camilla to be a nun. How could I sympathize with those people? But didn't you say that they were getting farther and farther away from us and couldn't catch up? The pasture north of Bagua City

There are shepherds like you here, so why would they die inexplicably?"

Fang Wenlin did not deny the life-saving grace at all, nor did he think that he was nitpicking. He just couldn't understand Hong Tao's behavior and his murderous intent. Those who could have been injured would definitely be beaten to death, and those who could have been stunned would still be beaten.

die.

This is no different from the top management of the Redeemer who treat the refugees as non-human beings, maybe even worse. He risked his life and lurked in the ghetto just to wait for an opportunity to overthrow those domineering guys. If the savior

Wouldn't it be a joke?

"If someone like you were put under my command... forget it, let's not talk about this first, let's talk about business. Girl, you always ask me where I am going, but you never mentioned why I want to escape. You

As soon as I left, the new nun invalidated all my special passes. It will be very difficult to get another one in the future, and it will be a huge loss!"

Listening to Fang Wenlin speak with his eyes closed reminds Hong Tao of Randy, who was just rescued ten years ago. Although they are not of the same race and have different cultures, their compassionate tones are similar.

But now he no longer has the enthusiasm that he had when he and Randy argued and bickered all day long, trying to use facts to educate people and change their perceptions all the time. He is even a little insensitive when facing the suffering in the world.

If you can't stand me, just don't watch. If you don't want to interfere, I'll kill you with one shot. I don't care if you are a redeemer or a rebel, and I won't let you go just because of Camilla or Yu Jia. But there is one thing
