Human Shackles

On the day of departure, the sky changed from the usual clear sky to a bit hazy.

First, they received epaulettes and weapons and equipment. The soldiers in the slave camp were issued an epaulette with a Pegasus pattern. There was only a line of numbers 105 on it, and no military rank or serial number.

Luo Kai received an old-fashioned long-stock rifle. Most of the paint on the stock was peeled off, and the rifling of the gun was severely worn. It was far inferior to the guns they usually trained. There was also a military backpack with a thin bedding inside. , a box of compressed rations and a jug of drinking water.

Other than that, the weapons were really bad. Not only him, the weapons received by the soldiers in the slave barracks were all old guns, but the soldiers recruited regularly received new guns that smelled of machine oil. The status gap was immediately apparent.

Big Bear was standing in front of him, holding an old gun and couldn't put it down. He turned around and said excitedly: "You don't know, old guns have been tested in actual combat and are accurate and better than new guns."

Luo Kai rolled his eyes speechlessly. The wear and tear of the rifling of the gun directly affects the accuracy of the bullet. How can it be better than a new gun? It must be the battalion commander Kang Cheng who brainwashed these squad leaders. Most of the slaves live in a backward and closed environment. , it is easy to be deceived.

The soldiers in the military camp began to assemble according to batches and numbers. As soon as they passed through the sea of ​​​​thousands of people, the entire military camp was covered by the crowd. Various slogans of standing at attention and taking a break rang loudly. The first batch of soldiers left the military camp and headed towards the military rail station. direction.

A steam-powered train was already waiting at the train station. There were more than twenty carriages hanging behind the front of the train. The carriages were painted green, like a long green snake.

Based on the fact that each carriage can accommodate 200 people, a train can carry nearly 4,000 soldiers. Of course, it is impossible to fill every carriage with soldiers, and a few carriages must be left for officers and to transport military supplies.

With a bitter look on his face, Luo Kai followed the crowd and squeezed into the carriage. In order to accommodate more people, all the tables and chairs in the carriage were removed. He could only sit on the floor. He followed Big Bear and squeezed into a window seat, and hurriedly opened the window. , the cool breeze blew away the smell of sweat in the carriage, and then he breathed a sigh of relief, thinking about waiting for the train to start and looking for an opportunity to jump out of the window.

There was a huge crowd outside, and there were still a large number of soldiers arriving. However, this train had a limited capacity and could only wait for the next one.

Luo Kai's eyes were attracted by two weirdos in the crowd. These two people had very weird shapes. Their waists and lower limbs were as thin as poles, but their chests and arms were extremely strong. The arms were much thicker than the waist. Look. They look like two gorillas, oh no, more like Popeye in the comics.

The two of them each carried a large suitcase and entered the officer's exclusive compartment at the back.

Immediately after, he saw another acquaintance, the beautiful female soldier with pink and phoenix eyes. She and the students from the Taishu Academy also entered the car at the back one after another. They were really enemies on a narrow road. Luo Kai touched his chin and muttered to himself, but it was a pity that he had no chance to teach her a lesson. !

Accompanied by a long beep, the train started with a clang. The speed was extremely slow. It traveled for a long time without picking up the speed. It was estimated that the speed was only sixty or seventy kilometers per hour. It was far worse than the car in the previous life. This kind of snail-like speed. Sitting there was an ordeal.

Mount Tieheng is a long and narrow mountain range with rugged terrain. Several hills in the center contain astonishing reserves of iron ore resources. Xingma Kingdom and Nanzhao Kingdom have been fighting fiercely for this all year round. Even if they cannot mine it, they cannot mine it with the other party, just because Steel is too important for industry, and coupled with the easy-to-defend and difficult-to-attack terrain of the Tieheng Mountains, once any party takes it, it will completely change the country's national power and officially enter the ranks of the human race's powerful nations.

Jinlan Mansion is about three hundred kilometers away from the Tieheng Mountains, which means that it takes about seven or eight hours to reach the front line.

Some of the slave soldiers around were very excited, some were very uneasy, and most of them had gloomy faces. During the short training of half a month, the instructor also talked about some simple geographical knowledge and military theory, and they all knew Tie Heng. No one knows whether the famous names on the battlefield will live or die, and the future is not in their hands.

Daxiong was one of the excited ones. He shouted out the window, as if he was venting the frustration of training during this period, and as if he had gained the freedom he longed for.

A chain reaction soon started, with many people shouting out the window, which for a time drowned out the roar of the train.

Compared with the crowded carriage in the front row, the carriage in the back row is just like a normal train. The students from the Taishu Academy are also very excited. For them, going to the front line to experience this time is like a bird out of the cage, and they can see the sky outside. The world is vast, and more importantly, I finally have the opportunity to apply what I have learned and even make achievements.

A tall and handsome student cleared his throat and said: "Everyone, I have good news to announce. Three days ago, General Mushan led the elite troops of the Army to sneak into Nanzhao and blew up their largest ammunition depot!"

"Ah! Really?"

"Senior Brother Xu Tao, where did you get the news?"

The students immediately became excited. The importance of ammunition depots to firearms warfare is self-evident. Even Yue Han couldn't help but ask: "Xu Tao, how do you know?"

Xu Tao shushed mysteriously and whispered: "The source of the information is absolutely reliable. The military has not announced it yet, so don't spread it out first."

…

Luo Kai leaned drowsily by the window. He didn't know how long it had been traveling, but the train drove out of the Jinlan Mansion and entered the vast mountains.

The scenery outside was very beautiful. It changed the monotony and desolation of the plains and became rich and colorful. There were endless green forests and many kinds of birds and animals. Luo Kai also saw a group of deer with big twisted antlers, like reindeer. There are actually reindeer in Star Horse Kingdom located in the south. It seems that many animals have changed their habits after the cataclysm. ,

Luo Kai straddled the rifle diagonally behind him and opened the window a little wider. The car was not going very fast, and with his physical ability, he wouldn't even scratch his skin when he jumped. When he was about to jump, he couldn't help but look back at the big bear. This guy fell asleep leaning on the carriage, with drool on the corner of his mouth. He suddenly felt a little reluctant, but let's find another chance.

After a while, the scenery outside changed again, and we entered the winding mountain railway. The railway was built on the edge of the hillside, with a steep slope tens of meters high on one side.

A dark tunnel entrance appeared in front of him. As the train rumbled into the tunnel, Luo Kai's eyelids suddenly jumped wildly, and an indescribable sense of crisis arose in his heart. Even his energy and blood began to speed up unconsciously, and his face suddenly changed. After a sudden change, I looked around. The soldiers were still sleeping and chatting. There was nothing unusual about them.

But the sense of crisis in his heart became stronger and stronger. As his strength improved, his mysterious sixth sense became more and more effective. It seemed that a life-threatening disaster was about to come.

Luo Kai couldn't care about anything anymore and shouted loudly: "Stop, stop the car quickly!" The loud voice directly covered the clutter in the carriage. Looking for the book garden www.zhaoshuyuan.com The slave soldiers looked at him in confusion.

Big Bear was also awakened by him, raised his hand and waved it in front of his eyes: "9527, what's wrong with you?"

Luo Kai didn't have time to explain to him, but this was a train. No matter how loud his voice was, it couldn't reach the front of the car. He gritted his teeth, stretched out his hand to fully open the window, and shouted: "Jump out of the train, jump out of the train if you want to live!"

No one listened to him and looked at him as if he was crazy.

The bright light at the entrance of the tunnel was faintly visible, and soon half of the train drove out. At this moment, a violent explosion came. Several carriages that had left the tunnel were directly thrown out by the huge explosion, along with those behind them. A series of carriages were also pulled to the side into a ditch tens of meters deep.

The situation was so sudden that even Luo Kai was thrown up. He could only reach out and grab the luggage rack above his head. From the corner of his eye, he saw the big bear being thrown around, and he hurriedly stretched out his legs to catch him. Countless sounds were heard around him. Heart-rending screams and the clicking sounds of broken bones, the violent collision and rolling lasted for half a minute. With a series of loud rumbles, the rolling train finally came to a stop. The carriage was severely deformed, and the inside had turned into corpses. Mountains and seas of blood.

Luo Kai climbed up from the pile of corpses. The big bear beside him rolled his eyelids, spraying blood from his mouth, and was dying.

Regardless of his sadness or anger, he stretched out his hand and carried him on his shoulders, smashed the broken car with a punch, and got out.

The scene outside made Luo Kai, who was used to seeing death, tremble slightly. More than a dozen carriages all slid down a deep ditch tens of meters high. Human flesh and blood could not withstand such damage. Thousands of people were injured. The soldiers died on the way before reaching the battlefield.

There is a gray mist floating vaguely in the sky. It is not smoke and dust, but the unwillingness, hatred, and anger of the deceased before death...
