Chapter 28: Being with Companion

The convoy headed northwest and started to nearly twenty kilometers out of the city. Land Rover stopped on the side of the road. Xie Tian began to slow down and stopped on the other side of the road. Perhaps because of the blood and danger that had just passed, more than 20 vehicles following behind were also parked on the side of the road. The cars stopped in a long row, and some people began to come out to breathe, smoke or replenish food and water.

A middle-aged man walked out of the Land Rover car. The man was not too tall, about 175 cm and very strong. He strode to Xie Tian's car, patted the car door, and said to Xie Tian: "Brother, thank you all the way."

Xie Tian smiled faintly and said, "You're welcome, help each other. If you don't remind me, I'd probably rushed to the viaduct."

The man nodded and said to Xie Tian: "There are two routes given on the flyer, one is to go to Changsha, and the other is to go to Nanchang. I wonder what your plans are, brother? Should you go to Changsha or Nanchang?"

Xie Tian said, "Go to Changsha. Changsha is nearly 100 kilometers higher than Nanchang. If you have good luck, you can reach Changsha at dark."

"Arrival at dark?" The man shook his head helplessly and said, "Little brother, you think this road is too simple. In this case, the biggest problem is that the road conditions are unclear. Only rough routes are given on the flyer, but there may be problems with each route, because there was a collective retreat northward once before, most of the expressways and national highways were paralyzed, so they could only go north by small roads. In addition, it is difficult to travel at night, so they can only drive during the day every day, and they are not always pushing north. Most of the time may be spent on detours. It is good to be able to walk more than 100 kilometers a day. In these more than 100 kilometers, it depends on luck to really push north. It is possible that the distance to really push north is less than ten kilometers."

Xie Tian asked in surprise: "I don't know what to call this brother. Why are you so familiar with the situation on the road?"

The man sighed and said, "My name is Song Hui. I went to the south with my comrades to perform missions. There were two cars of people in total, but one car had been separated from us because of a group of zombies before entering Yangcheng. The situation we were all over the place was similar to what I just said."

"My name is Xie Tian." Xie Tian introduced himself. He didn't expect that the other party was actually a soldier, so he asked, "Then are you going to Changsha or Nanchang?"

"Nanchang." Song Hui blurted out without hesitation: "Although Nanchang is more than 100 kilometers away from Changsha, Nanchang has a great advantage. The number of troops there is larger than Changsha and there are military airports. I believe the government will pay more attention to Nanchang, and Nanchang is much closer to Shanghai and Nanjing than Changsha."

Xie Tian nodded thoughtfully. He didn't know where he should go first, but after hearing the other party's analysis, it was indeed safer to go to Nanchang. If we continue to go north in the future, we will be closer to other safe areas. Zhao Ziye, who was sitting behind him, lay down in Xie Tian's ear and whispered: "Xie Tian, ​​go to Nanchang. If we can contact my family in Nanchang, it will be of great help to us return to Yanjing."

Xie Tian asked curiously: "Really?"

Zhao Ziye nodded slightly, with a very serious expression.

Xie Tian thought about it carefully. Zhao Ziye once said that the reason why she came to work in Yangcheng was because one of his father's old comrades-in-arms was the secretary of the Yangcheng Municipal Party Committee. If this is the case, Zhao Ziye's family background must be extremely unusual. If this is true, if she can contact her family, it will definitely be of great help to these people going to Yanjing.

At this time, Song Hui, outside the door, asked, "How about you, little brother, do you want to have a companion together?"

Xie Tian nodded, agreed readily, and said, "Okay, let's go together!"

Song Hui smiled slightly and said, "That would be great. Your car is extraordinary. With you and us, you will be much more confident when you encounter a zombie group." After that, Song Hui took out a pistol from his waist. Xie Tian instinctively thought the other party had any bad thoughts. Just as he was about to quietly draw out his gun, Song Hui held the gun barrel in his hand and handed the pistol to the window, and said, "You are holding this for self-defense, but we only have one walkie-talkie in our car. It would be great if we could have one more walkie-talkie."

Xie Tian knew that the other party had good intentions, so he felt relieved. He couldn't tell the other party that he had a lot of guns and ammunition, so he put down the car window and took the pistol handed over by Song Hui. It was a Type 92. He collected several of this guns himself, which can be regarded as the best one among domestic pistols.

"I have the walkie-talkie here, so let's talk to you about the frequency."

"Oh?" Song Hui smiled and said, "That's great. It's more convenient to have intercom opportunities. In order to find our previously lost comrades, our intercom frequency has been maintained at 409...9000, and has not changed."

"Okay." Xie Tian nodded, then looked at the long convoy behind through the rearview mirror, and asked, "What should we do if those people behind?"

Song Hui also looked back. The cars behind were of different styles, but there were not many truly high-performance off-road vehicles. Most of them were cars and ordinary SUVs that were only suitable for urban roads. Moreover, Song Hui also knew that when teaming north, you should not only pursue quantity, quality was the most important thing. The more people, the less easy the situation was to control.

"I'll tell them later that those who are willing to follow Nanchang will not be able to stop others from following you. It depends on their personal wishes."

Xie Tian nodded, and Song Hui first went back to his Land Rover car. Xie Tian said to Xie Yufei in the co-pilot: "Please help me see what's going on behind the scenes. Someone approaches and notify me in time. I get something from the backdoor."

Xie Yufei immediately agreed and said, "Okay, I understand."

Xie Tian inserted a pistol into his waist, then opened the car door, and climbed directly from the car door to the ladder of the back bucket. The dumped back bucket was very high. Even if the people below stood beside him, they would not be able to see the inside full of supplies. However, Xie Tian was still very careful. He lifted a corner of the tarp and opened the big lock with the key. When he got in, he immediately covered the iron door and the tarp. He fumbled inside to find the flashlight, and then picked out a walkie-talkie and a matching car charger from a pile of supplies. Thinking that the gps positioning might be useful after going on the road, he also took a set and wrapped a pack of food and water in a black. Then he climbed out again, locked the iron door carefully, and covered the tarp tightly.

Back in the cab, Xie Tian threw the intercom and GPS positioning to Li Yang and said, "Li Yang, you can tinker with these things and match them with their intercom first. Do you remember the frequency he said just now?"

Li Yang nodded, took the thing that Xie Tian handed over, and said, "Brother Xie, don't worry, this is all pediatrics." After that, he turned on the walkie-talkie, then adjusted the frequency, and handed it back to Xie Tian, ​​and said, "Brother Xie, you can call them by pressing the call button."

Xie Tian took it and tried to press the call button, saying, "Is it Song Hui?"

Song Hui's voice came from the intercom and said, "It's me, thank you, is there enough food and water there? We have some here, so tell me if you need it."

Xie Tian found that Song Hui was quite real. He just met him and gave him a gun to defend himself, and also gave him food and water. However, after thinking about it, he must have thought that he was useful to them, so he was so enthusiastic. He felt relieved and said, "The supplies here are not a problem for the time being, but thank you."

"Yes." Song Hui said: "I'll tell the people behind now."

The Land Rover started quickly and turned the car to the middle of the convoy behind. Xie Tian heard Song Hui's voice and said through the speakers on the car: "Everyone, the government's leaflets previously gave two routes, leading to two safety zones of Changsha and Nanchang. There is a fork in the road about 50 kilometers further ahead of this road. To Changsha, you have to turn north and to Nanchang, you have to turn northeast. As for where you want to go, everyone decides for yourself."

After saying that, the Land Rover drove back to the other side parallel to Xie Tian. Song Hui said through the intercom: "After speaking, most of them should not be willing to leave the distance and follow us to Nanchang, otherwise the pressure will be less."
