Chapter 279: Border of dense forest (day +154)

Bai Liu subconsciously wanted to push away the spades, but from the corner of his eyes, Guy, who was smiling and watching the show, and Alex who was embarrassed to turn his face away, immediately became sober.
He lowered his head as if shyly, and put his head on the collarbone of the spade, putting his head on the collarbone of the and burying it in the arms of the spade.
Bai Liu's breathing was a little quick, his fingers curled into a fist, and two lower lips were pressed. When he spoke, his voice was already very calm.
"Before doing this kind of thing next time, tell me first."
The hands of Spades placed on Bai Liu's shoulders folded, he hummed very softly, and then as if aware of Bai Liu's emotions, he said afterwards, "Should I ask you this time?"
"I'm sorry." He apologized sincerely, "Will you be angry?"
Bai Liu laughed suddenly, he looked up at the spades, his eyes paused.
Enthusiasm filled the dark eyes, bright and bright but not clear, and there was a vague self hidden in those eyes, and it seemed that there was a person Bai Liu was missing.
Bai Liu put his head against Spade's heart, and he could still smell the blood remaining here.
He just emptied two mags at the spades and dug out his heart.
The rising mood slowly dropped again.
Bai Liu closed his eyes and let out a sigh of relief. There was still a loose smile on his face. "You haven't changed that. I'll apologize for what you did."
When Sheta stayed with him, the most spoken word was I'm sorry.
This person has an inexplicable desire to survive. Every time he can keenly detect the signs of Bai Liu's rising anger and apologize in time.
Then dare to go next time.
"Forget it this time." Bai Liu got up from the arms of the spades, smiled and nodded to Gay and Alex, and glanced at the spades next to him lightly, smiling very friendly, "but I hope no more chance."
Spades ""
I always feel that I have done something wrong again.
The two followed Guy and walked to the base camp in the back, and they had to take a train ride in the process.
But this is a very strange railway, only dozens of miles away, and it can only travel between the front line and the small town behind.
Sitting in the carriage, Guy explained helplessly to Bai Liu and the others, "It's strange that there are few such railways, but because this war has been fought for a year and a half, it has been stuck in this position and cannot be advanced. Later, in order to facilitate the transportation of soldiers. And the materials built such a strange railway."
Bai Liu's gaze was retracted from the dense jungle outside the car window to build such a railway in such a damp area. It was not an easy task.
The effort spent on repairing such a route only shows that the commander of this battle is not small.
Bai Liu looked at Guy "Why got stuck here for a year and a half"
Guy sighed and sighed for a long time, "Because there is a very important strategic location, Lake Pluto, more than 20 kilometers ahead."
Bai Liu raised his eyebrows, "Pluto, why is this lake named Pluto in Roman mythology?"
Gay explained, "This place has a lot of rainfall in summer, and the average annual precipitation can reach tens of thousands of millimeters at the most."
"In the summer, this lake, which is at the lowest point of the entire region, will rise rapidly due to a lot of precipitation, causing mountain torrents and drowning many residents living nearby. Therefore, people here call this lake. The Grim Reaper who was angry in the summer named Pluto."
"Not only that." Alex added solemnly, "Once Pluto's water surface rises, its lake will overflow, automatically filling in many surrounding river channels, and automatically forming a picture centered on Pluto in this dense rain forest. Yes, the criss-crossing river network."
Guy took a deep breath. "In this kind of rain forest where it is difficult to build transportation channels, the river is a natural railway. Once whoever occupies Pluto before the rainy season, whoever can use the river and boats to transport a large amount of around this area Materials, weapons and soldiers occupy a powerful war advantage."
Bai Liu understood, "In other words, whoever occupies Pluto before the rainy season is likely to win this war."
"But if this is the case, you have stayed here for a year and a half, and have experienced at least two rainy seasons." Bai Liu asked thoughtfully, "have you not distinguished between the two rainy seasons?"
Guy smiled bitterly and shook his head. "We occupied Pluto the year before, but there was not much precipitation in that rainy season, and the transportation range formed by the river was quite narrow."
"We lost our battlefield advantage during the rainy season and let the people on the opposite side occupy Pluto. Just in case, our side expanded the conscription that year."
Guy looked at Alex with complicated eyes, "Alex came to the front at that time."
Alex nodded, his expression dimmed. "Last year’s rainy season was Pluto occupied by the enemy, and the amount of precipitation was also considerable. Their battlefield advantage continued until this year. We are losing ground every day, just fighting stubbornly, and on the battlefield every day. There are more corpses received than the previous day"
"The superiors continue to increase the recruitment of troops to the front line, so that we must never lose, we must win."
Guy patted Alex on the shoulder and sighed, "This kind of thing, no matter how we dominate it."
He smiled like a happy smile, "On the battlefield, the only thing we can do is to die."
Alex lowered his head, his voice was low, "I sometimes think that if we lose, it will be enough to end the war."
Guy's expression condensed, he looked around, and knocked Alex on the head helplessly. "Don't say this on the train. If you hear it, you will be punished."
Alex still kept his head down, his fists on his knees clenched tightly and did not speak.
Guy hugged his shoulders hard and pressed his chin against Alex's head, his tone was light and gentle, "It's okay, the war must be over after the rainy season."
Alex squeezed Guy's hand silently.
"The war must be over after this rainy season. Why do you say that?" Bai Liu raised his eyes to look at Guy.
Guy was quiet for a moment, "You'll understand when you join the army."
After saying this, Guy looked out of the train in a daze, his hands holding Alex tightened tighter and tighter, and the shaking green shade and the flames of war reflected in his eyes.
"There is a proverb in my hometown that the time spent with lovers is more precious than gold." Guy murmured.
He smiled and turned his head to look at the white willows and spades, the war and the green shade in his eyes faded, there was only a moving and humid light like old photos, and the smile on his face was an unstoppable envy and proud happiness. .
Guy laughed heartily, "Then when the four of us stay together, aren't we the richest person in the world"
Bailiu and his group, who jumped off the train, saw the crowded military joining point from a distance.
Someone was standing on the table holding a loudspeaker and shouting angrily, someone holding a recruitment poster chanting and distributing it, and someone was lying on the ground with a dirty ballpoint pen that didn’t know where they were filling in and was stepped on. Entry form for feet.
The whole scene is chaotic like a pot of porridge.
"It seems that there are a lot of new recruits who are here to report today." Guy tutted twice. "It's not easy to get two registration forms in this kind of scene."
"It's time for us to fulfill the friendship of the landlords." Guy took the hand of Alex who hadn't reacted, blew a pleasant whistle, and rushed into the crowd, "I'll help you get it. Registration Form"
Ten minutes later, Alex, who was so squeezed that his face was deformed, sat on the ground and gasped, and Guy excitedly waved the registration form to Bai Liu and the others, "I got it."
Guy drew two pens from his pocket, placed the registration form in front of the white willows and spades, and guided them with a smile.
When Bai Liu just got the registration form, he noticed that there was something wrong with the option that had been crossed in advance.
It's obvious who hit this fork.
Bai Liu looked at Guy, he clicked the cross with a pen, "Can't I choose what is this?"
The smile on Gay's face diminished a little. "This ah, this option is whether you want to join the commando."
"Commando" Alex's puzzled voice came from behind Guy, "Is there a recent raid, why didn't I receive a notification?"
The person holding the loudspeaker on the table raised his voice abruptly, "Everyone, our general has assembled thousands of heavy artillery to this town, and will continue to be sent to the front line today."
The man was very emotional, spitting and waving his arms.
"I believe we all know that if we lose this rainy season, we will be ruined in the hands of Pruto, the of death. The two days of heavy rain have already signaled that the enemy is likely to have a huge advantage in this rainy season."
The noisy crowd below quieted down, and everyone turned to look at the man standing on the table.
He continued with grief, "Are we just losing this war of glory and giving the free land that belongs to us to the shameless and unsatisfied slaves on the other side of the lake?"
"Are we not giving them enough rights?"
"Employing them from poor and backward areas, paying daily wages and including three meals, they actually require themselves to own property, demand that they use their labor in exchange for land, and demand that they become superior people like us."
"This group of people who depend on us for food, dare to say that these people who rely on us to develop their wealth originally belonged to them, and they want us to return them.
"Shameless" the man shouted sternly, full of anger, "They really have to be spine. When we first started to help them develop, why didn't they open their mouths to drive us out"
"After we signed an agreement and obtained their consent to own these lands and make these lands extremely rich, these greedy guys will drive us out under the banner of ownership."
Guy whispered to Bai Liu, "This rainforest has a lot of timber, minerals, and water resources, but the residents living there are very poor. So the officials who found the land at the beginning signed an agreement with these residents for the next 100 years. Give them work, property, so that they can eat every day, and get permanent ownership of this land."
Bai Liu paused delicately.
He felt that his work was dark enough, and he did not expect that there would be even darker people in exchange for the land they already had in exchange for cheaper labor.
This is no longer a huge profit, this is a huge profit.
Guy sighed, "You can see that this is a bad check, but the indigenous people didn't realize it at first, and they really didn't have enough to eat, so they all agreed."
"They built a large number of factories here, and gained a lot of wealth by relying on the land and these labors. However, the wages that the factories provide to the residents are getting lower and lower, and the working hours are getting longer and longer. For one thing, even trampling and making fun of these residents as slaves, disputes broke out."
"During the quarrel, an indigenous resident killed a factory director. In order to vent their anger, the factory director’s friends and relatives detained all the indigenous people involved in the dispute in an abandoned factory and burned to death."
Gay was silent for a long time. "A week later, the war broke out."
"At that time, everyone did not expect that these indigenous people knew the local terrain well for so long, and many relevant people in the world were assisting them, saying that this was a real war of liberation and freedom, and there were many other countries. Of volunteers joined them."
Guy smiled lonely, "Hey, you might not believe it, I wanted to be their volunteer army, but before I signed up, my family sent me here first."
Bai Liu's gaze stopped at the person who was still standing on the desktop and narrating impassionedly. "There is another version of this story, right? The cause of the war I saw in the conscription advertisement is not the same."
"Yes." Guy looked at Bai Liu appreciatively. "The official version used by the domestic government for propaganda is that they selflessly help the residents here to escape poverty and gain civilization, democracy and freedom, but they were first attacked by these insatiable and backward indigenous people. In the dispute, he killed a factory director who had selflessly helped them."
Guy looked at the recruitment advertisement posters scattered on the ground and exhaled, "Do you know what the most complicated situation is like? This recruitment advertisement does not tell lies. The factory director is indeed innocent."
"That's a very good man." Gay said nostalgic. "Although he was born as a nobleman, but after coming here to see the situation, he wanted to help these people build their own factories and get rid of the so-called The control of the superior."
"He mined with these indigenous people, went bankrupt to help them, and even refused to stop being opposed by his family and friends."
"But some natives didn't believe him, and felt that his hypocritical behavior was to further squeeze them. So in the dispute, this person was shot to death by a native who had always resented and doubted him. ."
"Domestic hype about this matter, many people feel angry and angry because of him who came to this battlefield, and feel that such a good person should not die like this, including Alex."
"They have a good heart, but a little naive. They thought they came here just to apologize, but the war is far more cruel than they thought."
Guy said it was quiet.
Bai Liu glanced at him, "You know this factory director, don't you?"
"I can tell you, but this is the little secret between us. You can't let Alex know that he will be jealous." Guy blinked and laughed, but there was a smile on his face. The sadness that cannot be concealed, "He is my first love."
"I'm lucky, both boyfriends are so great."
The people on the desktop shouted loudly, overwhelming Guy’s voice. "In order to end this war that lasted for a year and a half, sanction the greedy and inferior enemy forces before the rainy season comes. Two days later, we organized a For this reason, we selected the best veterans and formed an elite assault team."
"They will take on the most dangerous assault charge after the shelling in two days. Let us applaud the brave soldiers in these assault teams."
He took out a long list, and every time a name was spoken, a soldier climbed onto the high platform surrounded by cheers.
Guy looked at the list and waited quietly.
Alex seemed to realize something. He turned his head to look at Guy in disbelief, and then suddenly turned his head back, almost looking at the list with a kind of burning through the list.
"Guy Davis"
Alex subconsciously grabbed Guy's arm, and he looked at Guy with red eyes, his throat became dry and he couldn't say a word.
Guy smiled and broke his hand one finger by one, and pressed it to Alex’s ear and whispered softly that the war is about to end, baby, and then in deafening screams and whistles, Guy Yi walked through the hustle and bustle of the crowd and onto the high platform of the commando.
Alex chased Guy without thinking, but the cheering crowd blocked him, making it difficult for him to move.
The people on the table clapped and said warmly, "Next, let us welcome the general's recognition of these brave people."
A majestic middle-aged man dressed in a more glamorous stand-collar military uniform walked onto the high platform with a gentle smile while clapping his hands.
He rewarded these soldiers one by one with a medal worth less than five cents on the necks of those who were about to die for him.
After hanging up, the human-looking general turned his head and said solemnly, "Please remember their faces. If they die, they died for the most just thing in the world. They are all. A martyr worth remembering for mankind."
"This assault was called by me. I know that this assault will have very painful consequences, but it is to punish those inferior people severely."
Alex gritted his teeth and watched the eloquent general. "It was because of his military merits that he suddenly launched this assault."
Bai Liu looked over and cast a questioning look.
Alex took a deep breath and tried to stay calm and explained to Bai Liu, "This general is of civilian origin. He entered the military and political management by marrying the daughter of a high-ranking official. He has always been looked down upon by the upper class who pretend to be aristocrats. The constant war has taken its place."
"But I think he is better at politics than war."
Alex looked up at Guy on the high platform, breathing heavily.
"The purpose of launching a surprise attack at this point in time is just to make a good report after the defeat. After all, the surprise attack caused enemy casualties before the loss. You can also use the tragic sacrifices of these veterans to publicize and attract more angry people to join the army. "
Alex's eyes are red. "They have deceived a lot of people with this trick."
The general on the stage is still speaking
"They are the assault team that undertakes the most important task. Only the most elite soldiers can enter."
Someone raised his hand and asked "Can't recruits enter?"
The general laughed. "No, but your enthusiasm is worthy of praise. You can enter the second and third assault teams. The soldiers who are responsible for sweeping into the first assault team need a high level of comprehensive quality."
Someone raised his arm, the sound was not loud, but steady and penetrating "I think I have such qualities."
Everyone's eyes focused on the past.
This person is tall, even among the soldiers who have been screened and enlisted, it is a head taller, and his hands are quite conspicuous, especially the silver revolver that he holds in his hand, which is expensive to make at a glance.
Tang Erda raised his hand helplessly. He had just received the order from Bai Liu, saying that he had to take the head if he asked him to join the first assault team.
Bai Liu smiled at him from a distance, raised his hand and made a gesture of "Come on, I believe you can".
Tang Er Da ""
This person is really a little bit awkward to look at the excitement and not too much of it.
The general seemed to be dissatisfied with such a recruit provoking him, and his voice and expression became gloomy. "War is not a noble shooting game. You must go through a lot of training to join the assault team. At least, you have to master high-precision shooting skills."
He glanced at the silver revolver in Tang Er's hand with a slight contempt and dissatisfaction. Only the children of the big family who are idle and rich will bring them to the battlefield.
"You are holding a gun like this." The general sneered and sneered. He dignifiedly raised the medal in his hand. "Young man, I understand your yearning for honor, but I think you might be more suitable for riding a mare to beat ten. A fixed target beyond centimeters"
Tang Er turned the gun and loaded it, pulled down the dark goggles on his head, then raised his hand with condensed eyes and shot the general on the stage, piercing the medal in his hand without any difference.
The general on the stage paused as if freezing. It took him a long time to let his trembling hands slowly release the pierced medal.
The medals landed, and everyone around was staring at the new recruit with outstanding spear skills.
Tang Erda put away his gun lightly, "Am I eligible to join the first assault team now?"
"Of course." Guy on the stage blew out a whistle. He raised his eyebrows and swept Tang Erda from top to bottom with shining eyes. He laughed and said, "Good boy, your figure and Your gun skills are as dazzling"
Tang Erda froze for a while, then calmly said thank you, and he heard the system prompt.
The system prompts that the main plot nc Guy's favorability for you has risen.
The system prompts that the main plot nc Alex has a sharp drop in your favorability and you are excluded from the main mission
Tang Er Da ""
What happened and why he was excluded from the main mission
Tang Erda turned his head confusedly to look at Bai Liu among the crowd, pointed at himself, and then shook his head, indicating that he could not enter the main mission.
Bai Liu's gaze slowly moved to Alex, who stared at Tang Erda expressionlessly.
