Chapter 226: : Walking with Snow

At night, the edges of the mountains are brightly lit and a busy scene. ㈧㈠ 中 Δ┡ 文 网 WWW. 8⒈Ｚw. Com
The soldiers who used the dinner took over the work in the hands of their companions, and the shifts assaulted on food as if fighting. In the area divided by functions, some people are busy cleaning up the site, some people are camping, some people are installing and debugging equipment, and of course, others are armed with patrols to prevent possible accidents.
Taniguchi is the place where the atmosphere is most intense and tense. During the shouting or roaring of the officers, the organic shells are constantly transported out of the valley and sent to the maintenance area to check whether they can be used. At the other end of the camp, hospitals and cells are prioritized over the barracks, next to each other. When people pass by, they will hear moans on both sides. The difference is that there is a medic treating the wounded soldier and trying to restore the wounded body to normal. But next door, someone is using various methods to destroy others' bodies. As for those prisoners who have been "persuaded", they are working hard at the muzzle, dismantling the unrepairable mecha into parts, and stacking them neatly according to the classification.
According to Niuben's request, everyone must have something to do, and even if he sleeps, he must seriously complete the task of restoring physical strength instead of rest in the usual sense. Throughout the camp, thousands of soldiers are constantly busy, and often see the shape of a child, gesticulate and shout at the people who are working.
"Marco, you are exactly ten minutes late!"
"Hu big mouth, don't patronize bragging, take care of your people."
"You guys, why haven't you eat yet? Don't think you have extra time to make up."
"Tap, stupid! That scanner is a medical device for surgery. Do you want to kill your comrades?"
The work of thousands of people in the camp, all assigned by this child, the tasks are accurate to the individual. He knows what everyone is good at, what they should do, what they are doing, and how much time it will take. Not only that, he also grouped different people to accomplish things that originally required more people to complete.
During the hours of getting along, the soldiers have deeply realized the terribleness of the child, and have learned a lot about his cruelty and ruthlessness. He doesn't allow people to be lazy or deliberate, but also pays attention to maintaining the physical strength of the soldiers, but not through rest, but through rotation between different jobs to complete recovery.
For example, he banned mecha soldiers from working for two hours in a row, and at the end they would send them to the maintenance department to help observe the data.
At first, frequent changes made the soldiers extremely uncomfortable, and repeated complaints were made. Not only because everyone is afraid of trouble, but also because they are not working in the most familiar positions, they are worried about making mistakes. However, over time, people's actual results are not bad, even better than expected, only gradually accepted, until finally convinced. Even during the period, there was a little bit of trouble, and he accepted the reality under high pressure.
Niu Er is not easy to mess with, not only because of his identity, but also the giant bear-like figure that often appears around him. More importantly, it is not a good stubble in itself. Some soldiers had provoked before. As a result, they were knocked to the ground by a sturdy flying leg, and then assigned to the demolition department to work with the captives.
After only two or three round trips, the self-righteous brave soldiers who were self-righteous in the past were cobbled together by a child. The entire camp gradually operated like a machine, complicated and efficient. At this time, people couldn't help but be shocked and amazed by the child's ability.
Thousands of people, countless things, frequent and complicated changes and adjustments, this is not a simple pipeline operation, and it is not possible to obtain correct results with calculations. If the child is a machine, the intelligence is absolutely extraordinary, if he is a real person ... even more terrible.
Amazed, guessed, busy, people will not know. For Master Niu Er, these things are just a piece of cake. They are used to practice and even play.
"If the Hualong Federation is entrusted to me, it will definitely become the first power of Thomas Starfield in 20 years."
This is what Blessing said to Niuben in private. Niuben did not consider certain possibilities, but in the end he decided not to do so, at least not for the time being.
...
...
Deep in the wilderness, Niuben sat alone on the slope, with his back to the noisy wave of thoughts.
Thirty-eighth division officers and soldiers are the best soldiers in the world, and their blessing is even more unique. With them, Niuben is almost the most worry-free division commander on the planet, and he is not as busy as he used to maintain mechs in military schools in the past. For example, at a critical moment like today, Niuben doesn't need to keep an eye on everything. After arranging the general direction, he can rest and relax his nervous body and spirit. In the night, Niuben got up, ate meals, replenished energy, and then came to a quieter place outside to refresh his thoughts, thinking about what he should do after entering the city, such as what to do and how to do it.
Niuben was pleasantly surprised during this period, and the vitality in his body was increasing again.
The thrill of fighting can help the growth of qi. Niuben has already shown this, except when encountering the level. Since all came to the front, Niu Ben ’s practice has stalled, stuck at the last level before Xiao Zhoutian ’s completion; after that, he has been repeatedly stimulated, but the barrier is still strong. Today, he feels that the level is showing signs of looseness , I ca n’t be excited.
Passing through this important obstacle means leaving the category of "ordinary people" and entering the ranks of "people." To what extent, as there is no precedent to refer to, I can only imagine it in my mind.
Years of cultivation will be successful, and this temptation can not help but look forward to it. Even if Niuben has a calm temper that has been tempered forever, he can't help shaking his heart. Whenever this happens, Debuff always disdains and warns that practice is like sailing against the water, as if climbing to the top of the mountain. Every time you go forward, you can always see a higher and larger world. There is no end. Xiao Zhoutian is just the first step on the way, even just getting started, which is worth the excitement.
Niu Ben knew that this was to warn him not to be complacent, and he was also impressed with it in his heart. He was only a small Sunday and he began to practice hard from eight to twenty years old. Now he only sees the signs. After that, there were also customs such as Da Zhoutian, Juding Chaoyuan, and completeness, for fear that it would be difficult to see the results for life. He knew that he was already very different from ordinary people. He could take things in the air. How strong would he be when he really cultivated to that extent?
Fei Yan walks the wall, picks leaves and flowers, fights bulls across the mountains, King Kong is not bad ... things like this in the past can't be imagined, now it seems within reach, if you go on, will you kill yourself in ten steps, the sword A thousand miles?
Immortal ... If there is such a great skill now, why not worry about Sauvol's trip, he can crush it as much as possible.
"What are you thinking?"
The sudden voice disrupted my thoughts. Looking back, Andrei, Han Lin'er, Lin Jie, and others came together, and three hundred steel warriors behind them were ready to act, like a group of Sky God of War.
"Come and ask the leader before leaving, if there are any instructions."
Sit down next to Niu Ben, and Andre greeted everyone like the host: "Come and come, sit and listen to the teacher's instructions."
Han Lin'er grinned, Lin Jie stood up like a javelin, Mo Fan's face was overcast, Liu Yunyang's expression was serious, and he didn't do what he said.
Niuben frowned slightly, feeling some unusual breath.
"Everyone is a little nervous."
With his shoulders running up, Andrea said, "Surely not with us?"
Niu Ben shook his head and replied, "I'll walk down the river bank and see what's happening on both sides."
"Long-term vision, long-term vision." Han Liner casually sent a horse.
Andre gave him a glance and turned back to Niuben and said, "The captain is no longer in charge of the helm ... What are you talking about?"
Indeed, as Andrei said, the people here lead the troops. It is absolutely deceptive to say that not being nervous, whether it is Lin Jie who is unruly or Han Liner who is full of bad brains, he is a little bit sad; even Mo Fan, Liu Yanyang was sweating inwardly. As classmates, they are the targets of Lin and Han's reliance. Even if they are not directly instructed, they still feel a great responsibility.
Andre couldn't relax more, not only because he was alone, but also because of his identity different from everyone else. In a sense, he represented the face of the Brazilian runner-up.
Many things are like this. When I do n’t do it, I feel like
these things are okay, but I might not be able to do it
. When I really do it, my heart suddenly feels like a big mountain, dreads, and loses ground. There have been too many such examples in the past. They performed well in military academies and were completely confused when they really led the army. Especially now, leading an lone army to wander between the enemy's slits, survival is not easy, let alone threaten the enemy. To say the wrong thing, if it was not for the previous series of events, everyone would think that Niuben had deliberately let these military academy puppets eat, and even wanted to kill everyone.
Worry is written on the face and can be seen without much care.
Niu Ben turned his head and looked around, saying, "Kill the enemy, save yourself."
"Uh ..." Andre frowned, and said, "That's it?"
"Essential and concise, hit the point." Han Liner took out a small book and made a note of it.
"You ..." Lin Jie looked at him scornfully, sighed, and turned to Niuben, "then?"
Niu Ben thought for a while and said, "Flexible maneuver, avoid hard fight."
Andrea said helplessly, "What else?"
Niu Ben thought about it again and said, "Always pay attention to the material supply. When encountering large households and strongholds, those who can rob and those who can bury, don't be soft-hearted, nor waste extravagantly."
"We are regular army, want to learn Star Thief?" Mo Fan inserted a sentence next to it.
Liu Yeyang also had questions, but didn't say them.
That is why they were not appointed. In contrast, although Lin Jie is a child, he has long understood the principle of being strong. As for Han Lin'er ... seeing his excitement, there must be a robber gene in his blood.
"Not to learn, but to do it." Niu Ben corrected seriously: "People should try to kill as little as possible, and they must grab more material. You must not only take care of yourself, but also gather the soldiers who cross the river. Everything they need depends on you to prepare."
"Be more greedy than Star Thief!" Han Liner shouted.
The voice was too loud, and there was a laugh behind him.
"It's more fierce than the star thief." Now Niuben didn't mean to blame, Han Liner became more shameless.
It is wonderful to say that after such an exchange, the burden on everyone's hearts was reduced a lot, and their expressions became relaxed. Especially when we heard the "robbery" section, everyone laughed and had a bit of pride while thinking about it. No longer was how difficult the future was, but to invigorate the spirit and be sure to do better than Star Thief.
If you think about it, no star thief has ever been so luxurious, commanding the most elite warriors, and driving the most advanced mechs.
"You are systematically and professionally trained officers. It is your duty and duty to lead a war. It is necessary to adapt to local conditions on the battlefield and adapt to the situation. These simple truths do not need to be said at all. As for tactics, you know more than I do. So just let it go. "
There was no smile on Niu Ben's face, and he said lightly, "That's it, just get ready."
In the last paragraph, when Niu Ben said, his voice was dull and his eyes were not sharp, but everyone could feel his will and unwillingness to change, raising his chest unknowingly.
"Yes!"
In other words, Lin Jie and others turned around one after another, Han Liner blinked at Andre, and walked towards his own team. Only Andre still lay beside Niu Ben, and the asked mysteriously: "Ahem, in addition to listening to the teachings, I want to ask you something."
"What?" Niu Ben frowned slightly, feeling that there would be a problem.
...
...
"The soldiers are soldiers of the 38th Division, but it is us."
Two hundred mechas were set behind, and the hustle and bustle obscured all human voices. Near the camp, a nest of wild boars driven by hunger probed their heads, and screamed in horror and ran away.
Andre glanced over there, seeing that no one was eavesdropping, then turned around again, and said sneakily, "Why did you do that?"
Niu Ben replied: "They have more potential than ordinary officers. As for you ..."
"I understand all these reasons." Andre waved and stared at Niu Ben's eyes and asked: "At least for now, we are not as good as the original officers, the command is not handy. As far as the situation is concerned, I don't think you have the capital to squander. I want to ask, are you willing to take such a big risk?
Niu Ben calmly said: "It's not enough to train generals for the country?"
"It's so nice." Andre sneered. "Lin Shaowu, little fox, why not let them go together?"
Niu Ben explained: "Xiao Wu knows a lot of languages, and I want to take him into the city; Fang Fang is a girl, and she was hurt ... well, well, I admit that I have selfishness and don't want them Both ventured with you, satisfied? "
"This isn't okay at all. How could you be embarrassed?" Andre cried and laughed, but said helplessly: "Maybe I should ask like this, are you preparing or preventing something?"
After hearing these words, Niu Ben's eyes narrowed into a dangerous line, and he did not immediately respond.
Andrei did not budge, saying: "Having potential doesn't mean that you will be able to become successful right away. Training needs to be done step by step. Not everyone is as good at fighting as you are, and not everyone can call on the army to persecute Huo Qing. It ’s hard to convince and inexperienced, and no one can say what will happen.

Niu Ben countered: "I don't know how to fight and I haven't learned it."
Andre said scornfully, "But you played well ... don't force me to praise you, it's boring."
Niu Ben calmly said: "The most powerful people in the world have told me that fighting and fighting have the same reason, but in the final analysis, there are only two points: the use of power and the collision of will. All I have done is to simplify the war and find the advantage of the power. Time to fight for victory with the strongest will. "
"Well, it's so easy to talk." Andrei didn't mean to hear it, and said slightly, "The two most powerful people, oh ... the of war never said that. Can you tell Which two of you, me? "
Niu Ben quietly looked at Andre and said, "During the day, you said I wanted to win the hearts of the people, and now I talk about these again. Why?"
"Why? Why?"
"You are Brazilian and we are passers-by to you. At best they are just friends. Why are you so interested in me?"
"Well ... shouldn't friends care about each other?"
Niu Ben turned around and looked at him more lazily.
"Don't, you really are!"
Andre reached out and grabbed Niuben's shoulders, his expression turned solemnly: "Okay, okay. It's important that I tell you something."
"I'm listening," Niu Ben said lightly.
"Someday in the future, if you feel ... I mean if."
"Well, if." Niuben looked helpless.
Andre said: "If you feel you can't stay in the Hualong Federation, or don't want to stay, or something else ... In short, if you encounter a similar situation, remember to notify me first."
"inform you?"
"I help you, settle down, find a job, marry a daughter-in-law." Andre patted his chest: "I guarantee everything to your satisfaction."
"I see." Niu Ben smiled rarely, turned and said lightly, "Thank you. So are you."
"What?" Andre didn't know what he meant.
"If you have no choice, remember to notify me." Niu Ben said without turning back: "I help you to settle the road, settle down, find a job, marry a wife, give birth to a baby ... Sorry, there is no way to do this help."
After hearing only half of it, Andrea stood up angrily. "I don't appreciate it, right? Right, right? ... When you regret it!"
The left and right have already spoken the most important words, and the effect is only to look slowly in the future. Andre returned to the camp with a look of shame and anger, and drove the team out.
Niu Ben left alone in the same place, looking at the dark darkness in the distance for a long time, and suddenly felt that his forehead was slightly cold, and he couldn't help raising his head.
In the dark night sky, the lights are shining, and a little bit of crystal is floating, like thousands of elves falling silently. The change of the Cape of Good Hope during the cloud tide proves that the weather just passed was sunny, and it even snowed at night.
Niuben was not the first person to snow. When he looked up at the sky with emotion, someone in the camp already exclaimed, accompanied by more urging voices.
On the side of the hillside, Niuben shook his head silently and whispered.
"When is it? I thought about it."
...
...
Snow fell, and the banks of the Seine gradually became white, and the ground was covered with a layer within a few days. Strangely, snowflake condensation took away a large number of particles, and also made the fog lighter, and the horizon was clearer than usual. Looking down from the air, the ground is white, the turbulent current is surging and surging, like a yellow dragon meandering forward, the scene is spectacular.
At the beginning of winter, life was lurking, and most of the area along the river gradually became silent. However, in one place, there were people on both sides of the bank, and the roar was deafening. Looking closer, countless figures on both sides were busy in the snow and snow, and all they did was fill the soil with water.
"Give way, give way!"
On the east bank, a transport team consisting of mecha and vehicles travels to and from Mercedes-Benz, connecting the nearest hill to the river channel, and extending towards the center of the river channel over time. With the call, a lot of mud and stones were poured into the water, and piles of wood were rammed into the ground. There were huge iron cages made of steel bars in the front. Foundation is built in river water.
"Be faster."
Several generals patrolled the shore, and after checking the progress, they agreed. At the current pace alone, the dam cannot be completed before the Seine freezes. Once the river water surface freezes, it will be necessary to carry out the construction while icing, and the difficulty will undoubtedly increase greatly.
"Or else, just let it freeze?"
Knowing that the best efforts have been made, some people have proposed: "When the ice freezes, the troops can cross the river."
"No." Lei Ming shook his head and said, "Anyone can, but a machine may not pass."
This is a question that cannot be ignored. The Cape of Good Hope has frequent geothermal activities. Before seeing it in person, no one knows how thick the ice layer can be. Even the indigenous people who have lived in the local area can't determine what will happen this year. Dozens of tons of military equipment are at stake, and it is unwise to pin hopes on God.
Taking a step back, even if God gives face, who knows when it will be reached? For the federal army, the stakes have now been placed on the crossing, and there is no room for long delays.
In addition, we need to consider the opposite bank. The purpose of this interception is not only to cross the river, but also to force the river to spread and flood all the teams that deploy on the other bank.
Thinking of this, everyone stopped speaking and could only watch the earthen mention slowly extend.
The effect has come out. The water surface above the river embankment has obviously widened, but I don't know how long it will take to get through.
"Is there any news from Niutong?"
"Not yet. Someone has been sent to see the ghost, and it's time to return."
"Can't wait. You can't put all your hopes there."
In the snowstorm, Thunder shook his hand vigorously and said, "Order, let everything else go down, and all the idle people in the barracks will all come out to make the embankment."
Someone by the side said: "But there are so many machines, people have been out of flight ..."
Before he could finish speaking, Lei Ming interrupted: "Move by hand, carry by your shoulders. If you ca n’t lift the road, repair the road, if you ca n’t repair the road, fill the pit, clear the snow, and in short, do something. Each person moves an extra bag of sand and soil. An extra stone will always improve the degree. "
With this order, the hustle and bustle of the barracks was already hustle and bustle, tens of thousands of people against the wind and snow, in the most primitive way to join the industry.
In the age of science and technology, this is an unseen scene. There is another kind of sadness in the hot steam. On the other side of the river, everything that was heard was panic, and the effect of the Hualong Federation desperately stopping the flow had begun to appear.
"It collapsed, it collapsed again!"
In the shout, the bank of the river lifted again, and the raging river rushed into the snow, rushed into the position, and rushed to the foot. The panicked people shouted, busy with sandbags to prevent floods ... The problem has not been solved, and there are more calls from upstream.
"Sheung Shui, come quickly!"
The interruption of the Seine is relatively flat, both good and bad. Each time the dam in the river is extended, the water level naturally rises, and the bank along the river needs to be reinforced by a distance of 100 meters; moreover, as the water level continues to rise, the degree of bank elongation becomes higher and more difficult. pack.
"No, I can't stop it sooner or later!"
In order to block the river, a long lift should be built on the shore to compete with the other side, and there must be no gaps. For unprepared troops, this task is almost impossible. However, if this is not done, the defense line along the river will naturally collapse, and the army on the other side will not need to release a shot, and the river will naturally drive all people away. The most annoying, here knows exactly what the other party is doing, but there is no way to stop it.
The only thing worthy of comfort now is also an important factor in supporting the belief: the impact of the interception is the same for both parties, although the opposite side is slightly higher, but it is also facing wider water, making it more and more difficult to improve.
It depends on who can't stand it now.
"His adam, hurry up! Don't be lazy. You can't fight, but you lose if you don't believe it."
The officers waved their whip in their hands, cursed in their mouths, and sometimes looked up at the sky and prayed sincerely.
"It's changed, it's better to freeze them to death."
It responded in time, and the snowstorm intensified. After all, there was a gap from the frozen dead. During the snowstorm, when officers and soldiers on both sides of the straits were competing for alternatives around the direction of the river, some things were quietly happening inside and outside the city of Sauvol.
Compared with the storm in the sky and the cross-strait waters, it is not inferior.
...
... (To be continued.)
