Chapter 1634: Corrosion
The night wind was blowing and the weather was very cold. Sherlock stood tremblingly beside the road in a small town called 'Abilene'. Although he had made himself as presentable as possible, the wrinkles and holes in the gray coat still reflected his current financial situation.
Not all Jews do well in the last days, and some do badly. When old Dave went to the Aurora Legion to look for opportunities, Sherlock still "persuaded" the other party not to go, and it was better to stay in the "Enclave". But now that his family's wealth is exhausted, he has to rely on his cousin to help.
Sherlock had a radio station in his hand, and from time to time, several bonfires were lit beside the road. He kept looking at his watch and looking at the sky anxiously.
When it was around ten o'clock in the night, there were a few shouts from the radio station to confirm the location, and a v-280 tilt-wing aircraft appeared from the night sky and landed slowly on the road.
The strong wind driven by the rotors made it difficult to open eyes, but Sherlock still tried his best to rush up with the cap on his head, hoping to make a good impression on the guests who came by plane.
The hatch of V-280 opened, and Papa Ruiwen jumped down from it. The old gentleman, who was always fully armed in the past, was dressed as a gentleman this time, with unruly hair, wearing a handmade suit with a small white cuff exposed, smiling and shaking hands with the Jewish guy who came up: "Charlotte? Nice to meet you. "
At the moment of shaking hands, Charlotte almost burst into tears. In contrast to Raven's father's outfit, he was dressed like a poor beggar, or a refugee. And thinking back then, he also appeared around the world in clean clothes to discuss business, but now that everyone else has survived, he is still suffering.
"Hello, Mr. Ruiwen." Charlotte tried her best to show that she was neither humble nor humble, and led from the side: "Nice to meet you. Please follow me. Colonel Wolfe is waiting for you."
Father Ruiwen followed with a smile, and there were four heavily armed soldiers behind him. The soldiers are wearing t-45d power armor, tall and powerful, with great visual impact. Charlotte stared blankly.
A few military jeeps were parked beside the road, and there were about a dozen soldiers on board. When they saw the v-280 landed, they were still a little aggressive, as if they wanted to give the guests a bad start. Just seeing the t-45d appear, they were surprised and commotion again.
A low-ranking officer of the team leader put his hand on the holster, stepped forward and asked, "What's going on? We only allow you to bring four bodyguards."
"This is my bodyguard." Father Ruiwen in a suit stepped forward slowly, relying on the four steel machines behind him, he laughed and said, "What's the matter... Do you feel scared at the door of your house?"
Facing the four steel machines that were not easy to mess with, the low-ranking officer in command of the convoy could only report the situation, and only after receiving instructions did he allow Father Raven and his party to board the car.
The convoy did not run far, and stopped at the gate of the military camp one kilometer away. This is a brigade-level combat team stationed in the "Enclave", and the task is to guard Dallas, which is more than two hundred kilometers away.
At the gate of the barracks, several senior military officers came out to greet them. And after getting off the car, Ruiwen's father dressed as an elite, and under the searchlights of the camp, he looked very dignified.
"This is Colonel Wolfe, this is Lieutenant Colonel Dali, this is..." Sherlock was in charge of the introduction, and the two parties who met for the first time knew each other and shook hands.
Colonel Wolfe just smiled, welcoming Papa Ruiwen's arrival with some enthusiasm. However, Lieutenant Colonel Dali beside him asked rudely: "Mr. Ruiwen, do you feel comfortable serving a yellow-skinned monkey as a subordinate?"
As soon as the provocative words were said, everyone's eyes were fixed on Father Ruiwen, hoping to see how he would respond. Just when Sherlock was worried that his father would get angry, he laughed and said, "I'm actually quite happy, it's better than you guys eating shit in this ghost place!"
The word 'eating shit' made Colonel Wolf turn pale slightly. He held back his anger, turned his head and shouted at Lieutenant Colonel Dali: "Shut up, don't make our distinguished guests angry."
Looking back, Colonel Wolfe apologized to Papa Ruiwen again, and led Papa to visit the barracks. Not many lights were turned on in the barracks, and the black lights couldn't see much. However, Colonel Wolfe was very proud when he showed his troops equipment in front of the equipment warehouse.
"We have nearly 90 m1a3 main battle tanks and more than 110 m2 series infantry fighting vehicles, all of which are the latest models that have just upgraded their fire control accessories before the catastrophe. Nearly 50 m3 cavalry fighting vehicles, this is a bit Old, but works just as well.
We also have eighteen m109a7 self-propelled artillery with a 155mm caliber. With the cooperation of drones, guided shells can easily bombard enemies dozens of kilometers away. In addition, we also have a full set of digital command system and reconnaissance, support, and logistics systems.
We are the strongest brigade combat team in the Enclave, and we even have our own gunships. If there is air support, it can become a powerful assault force and easily defeat enemies of the same size. "
Listening to Colonel Wolf bragging, Father Ruiwen just folded his hands in front of his lower abdomen and listened quietly, and even praised a few words after listening. Just waiting for the smiles on the faces of the colonel and others, he asked: "How much is the attendance rate of these equipment?"
"Eighty percent." Colonel Wolf said indisputably.
But Father Ruiwen chuckled and shook his head, "I think it's a strong guarantee if you can drive half of these big guys, or even only one third."
Faced with this kind of face-to-face revelation, Colonel Wolfe's face changed a few more times, and finally he emphasized with a slightly heavier tone: "These are the best equipment in the United States, and even the best equipment in the world. One You won't find anything better than them for twenty years."
"I agree with this, because the companies that produced them are all finished now." Father Ruiwen walked back and forth in the equipment warehouse, and climbed on several tanks from time to time to check. Sure enough, as he expected, many tanks lacked internal maintenance, basically parked for a long time without being started.
Although the goods have some maintenance problems, but this is not unacceptable. After checking it out, Father Ruiwen returned to Colonel Wolf and asked for confirmation, "Are you really planning to sell us all the equipment of the entire brigade?"
A brigade, the most powerful digitally synthesized brigade in the US Army. The equipment alone used to be worth billions of dollars, and now someone wants to sell it all. When Zhou Qingfeng learned about this, his reaction was that if you dare to sell, I will dare to buy. I am more courageous than anyone else!
Faced with doubts, Colonel Wolf shrugged, "Why not? As long as you can afford it, I can even give you a batch of M270 heavy rocket launchers that can launch Army tactical missiles."
Lieutenant Colonel Dali has been following the colonel, and at this moment he added bitterly, "Those bureaucrats don't care about us at all. All our material applications have been rejected by them, and they simply treat us like livestock that can only live on potatoes." .
Here there is no wine, no women, no hope. It is difficult to find a sow twenty kilometers around, and life is simply terrible.
My soldiers joined the military to restore the glory of America, and now it's been two full years and they're gay ass fuckers. This is not the army at all, no sense of honor. "
From the bitter complaints, it can be seen that the current situation of the "Enclave" is bad. A main force defending the capital actually went to a place where they wanted to sell their equipment privately.
"I understand. You will have good wine and food, beautiful women, and hope. Then let's talk about the price now." Father Ruiwen let out a sigh of relief, feeling that the current advantage is not in vain. If you don't take it, he will regret it if he misses the opportunity.
