Chapter 1: The Mysterious Tornado
However, what Luo Xiao values the most are the military experts and technicians from the relocated armory, as they are the most precious assets
The third squad is functioning normally
The convoy continued along the highway for about ten hours and finally arrived at a location less than fifty kilometers from the new site. If all goes well, they should arrive in another half an hour
After more than twenty minutes, the fire on the heavy-duty trucks was finally extinguished
The two individuals exchanged a glance and burst into laughter in unison
I did not expect that there would still be a problem
Hurry up!
The special operations team is also fine
Oh!
Is that so? That's good! Luo Xiao let out a sigh of relief; the extinguishing of the fire meant that these devices and supplies were preserved. It is important to note that these supplies and equipment are extremely valuable, and any issues that arise could result in significant losses
With a click, the door of the battlefield command vehicle was opened, and a thin, dark-skinned man dressed in a military uniform with the rank of lieutenant colonel appeared at the door. He glanced inside and then said, "Luo Xiao, the fire has been extinguished"
Shaking his somewhat dizzy head, Luo Xiao lunged towards the control console, grabbed the intercom on it, and shouted inside, "All squads report the situation!"
... ...
A total of 11 team members were injured! Yan Beifeng said while taking a pack of cigarettes out of his pocket and tossing one to Luo Xiao, "But they are all superficial injuries, just a few scrapes. They are all lively and energetic, full of spirit"
This time, they are escorting the X Armory, which is responsible for the production and research of the latest firearms and armored weapons. In addition to the equipment, there is also a batch of domestically produced Type 95 improved series firearms, all of which are the latest models, as well as accompanying ammunition and some other equipment
Inside the command room of the battlefield command vehicle, Luo Xiao slowly raised his head. A bruise had formed on his forehead due to the impact. Having just regained consciousness, his mind was still momentarily blank, and he looked around with a slightly dazed expression.
"Aren't I leading the Huya Special Forces in the relocation mission of Factory X? How did I end up here?" Luo Xiao looked out of the car and saw the undulating mountains and the lush greenery covering the hills, which filled him with doubt
Everything is normal in Team 1
Only when the outside finally returned to calm did Luo Xiao let out a sigh of relief, as sweat slowly trickled down his forehead, and when it flowed over the injured area, it sparked a sharp pain
The man in specialized gear is named Yan Beifeng, and he is the instructor of the Tiger Tooth Special Operations Team. At this moment, he lifted his leg and climbed into the vehicle, sitting down in the chair next to Luo Xiao, and then spoke, "Luo Xiao, the casualty statistics for the Tiger Tooth Special Operations Team have been compiled"
As they watched the flames extinguished, with only wisps of blue smoke still rising from the heavy-duty truck, the people finally set down their firefighting tools and wearily made their way back to their respective transport vehicles, while a portion remained behind to manage the cleanup of the fire scene
The two people in the car were taken aback and stood up abruptly
With a bang, the iron door of the command vehicle was pushed open, and a face drenched in sweat leaned in from outside, "Captain, we are unable to establish radio contact with the base"
Oh, how is the loss?" Luo Xiao stopped his actions and turned to look at Yan Beifeng. The Tiger Tooth Special Forces Team was a group of elite soldiers he had personally trained, and each one of them was a valuable asset
There was basically no loss of supplies, and not a single one of the trucks loaded with the improved 95 firearms was missing. Additionally, other supplies, including ammunition, were also safe and sound. Only one truck loaded with provisions was swept into a nearby ravine, but it will be fine once it is pulled up shortly
In the northeastern part of Shenyang, within a hollow of Qipanshan, dozens of large transport trucks are abruptly parked on a flat area spanning several hundred meters. Each truck is loaded with goods, covered with tarpaulins and camouflage nets. Thick blue smoke billows from some of the heavy trucks, continuously rising into the sky
Everything is normal in the second squad
As the responses from the commanders and fighters of each team came through the walkie-talkie, Luo Xiao's heart gradually calmed down. As long as everyone was safe, he felt much more at ease
An increasing number of people are gathering on the flat ground, among them are soldiers dressed in camouflage special operations uniforms, as well as logistics personnel in military uniforms, and some individuals in white lab coats, seemingly researchers. All these individuals are busy with fire extinguishers beside the flames
Luo Xiao paused for a moment, then continued to ask, "How is the transportation of the supplies we are escorting?"
"It's nothing, am I not familiar with my soldiers?" Luo Xiao took the cigarette, placed it between his lips, then struck a match and took a deep drag. Nonchalantly, he continued, "Those kids are tough; every one of them has dozens of scars from training. This is nothing more than a tickle to them!"
The crisis has passed, and only now does Luo Xiao have the time to reflect on what just happened
The piercing sound of police sirens echoed outside the command vehicle, while dazzling red warning lights flashed and swirled atop the vehicle. Soldiers dressed in camouflage special operations uniforms jumped down from the troop transport vehicles, carrying fire extinguishers as they rushed towards the burning heavy-duty trucks. Streams of white foam sprayed towards the raging flames, quickly reducing their intensity
In the center of a flat area, a large battlefield command vehicle, measuring over ten meters in length and painted in grass green camouflage, lay motionless among the rubble. The vehicle's body was already scarred and battered, though it was unclear whether the damage was caused by friction with the air during its fall or by being struck against the ground and scraped by the stones. Surrounding it was a scattering of debris.
However, unexpectedly, at that moment, a tornado suddenly swept across the highway, appearing abruptly and moving at an extremely fast speed. Luo Xiao and the others had not yet reacted when they and the entire convoy were already caught up in the tornado, quickly losing consciousness. By the time they woke up, they had already arrived in this mountainous area
"Immediately have Advisor Sun and the others contact the base to inquire about our next steps," Luo Xiao pondered for a moment and said, "Should we wait here for the surrounding brother units to come to our aid, or should we take action ourselves—"
At the beginning, everything went smoothly. The core equipment of the armaments factory had already been loaded onto dozens of heavy-duty trucks. In addition, the weapon experts and technicians from the armaments factory's weapons research institute were also ready to set off with the convoy, heading towards the new site selected for the armaments factory
At 9:00 this morning, Luo Xiao led the Huya Special Forces team on a mission to the X Armory, responsible for the security of the armory's relocation, while simultaneously escorting a batch of military supplies to the new site of the factory
Everywhere there are voices, everywhere there are swaying figures
Due to the enormous quantity of equipment and materials, as well as the need to escort weapon experts and technical personnel, one of the elite units from the special operations base, the Tiger Tooth Special Operations Brigade, was assigned to carry out the escort mission
The night is as tranquil as water, with a bright moon hanging high in the sky, illuminating the earth with a radiant glow, and the entire city of Shenyang is bathed in that gentle, watery light
What?
