Chapter 203, Exemption from Military Service
The truck carriages of the troop transport trucks clanked, and the bitter cold wind kept blowing in from the open buckets, scraping one’s face like a knife.
At first, Ren Xiaosu was worried that the trucks would transport men and women to different places, for example, women might be transported directly into factories to work as female laborers, but there was no such situation, which made him feel relieved for the time being.
Wang Fugui said with a sad face, “We couldn’t bring up our bicycles.”
This said, Ren Xiaosu face also blackened ……
This was probably the first time since leaving the 113 Barrier that the team had suffered a major loss ……
That’s how it was on the wasteland, possessions were extraneous, and sometimes they were discarded when they were said to be discarded. Even human lives are like that, let alone bicycles.
Today’s situation was such that even if Ren Xiaosu and Chen Wufei were both Transcendents, it would be difficult to fight against a complete army.
Seeing that Li’s Consortium’s army continue to advance towards the 109 Barrier, Ren Xiaosu felt that it was very likely that he would not be able to see this army in the future, as he did not think that this army could engage in an alleyway battle with thousands of experimental bodies.
Unless, Li directly took heavy firepower and leveled the barriers.
However, a barrier was built for the nearby resources, would Li be willing to throw away such a complete barrier? Definitely not.
Knowing that after blowing up a wall and then rebuild it, the cost would be too great.
The car had been traveling in the snow for seven or eight hours, during which time there were cars in the convoy that had broken down several times, and it was only at this time that the people in the car were allowed to get out of the car and let off some steam.
The private forces watched over them as if they were prisoners, Ren Xiaosu exchanged glances with Sister Xiaoyu and Jiang Wu from afar, but each did not know what the other’s glances meant……
After the car was repaired, they continued on the road, during which Wang Fugui kept chatting and chatting with the soldiers of the private army, which is still his best skill, in a while, Wang Fugui even got acquainted with the soldiers who were watching over their car.
After getting back on the bus, Wang Fugui whispered to Ren Xiaosu, “It looks like we’re going directly to the market town of 108 barriers, but we all know what these private forces are like, when the time comes, I’ll see if I can use money and antibiotics to get them to secretly exempt us from military service and labor service.”
The so-called labor service is the meaning of conscripting displaced women to work in factories.
It had to be said that with someone like Wang Fugui in the team, at least the news would not be too closed, Ren Xiaosu and the rest of them were not good at dealing with people, this had to be done by Wang Fugui.
Ren Xiaosu asked in a low voice, “Did you ask them what the state of Li’s other barriers are now.”
“Asked, nothing much is going on at any of them,” Wang Fugui replied, “But they’re on full alert now, Li has declared a wartime alert to the outside world, as if they’re about to go to war.”
“It seems like it’s not just about dealing with experimental bodies,” Ren Xiaosu sighed, if it was just about dealing with experimental bodies, there was no need for more than a dozen barriers to be put on alert together.
But what kind of backbone did Li have to start a war, it couldn’t be relying on nanobots.
Yang Xiaoguan had said that although everyone had seized this research result that hadn’t had time to be destroyed, Li must have long ago transferred the data through the satellites under his control, so Li’s research hadn’t been in vain.
At that time, Ren Xiaosu also questioned that if that was the case, then it was as if that portable hard disk had been left behind on purpose, so if Yang wanted to use it, it would still be best to check and inspect it, or else it could very well be a trap.
Ren Xiaosu is this kind of character, others may not even think much, but in his eyes, as long as there is a little unusual place, it will make him careful and vigilant.
Now can use money to open the way to exempt from military service labor service has been the best way, private forces of soldiers in the car cursing, seems to be so cold weather still have to come out to work very dissatisfied, this is with Ren Xiaosu impression of all the private forces are about the same ……
This is similar to all the private forces that Ren Xiaosu remembered. When the car Ren Xiaosu and Wang Fugui quietly exchanged the most valuable things, all stuffed into Ren Xiaosu’s storage space, in case the other side saw the valuable things started to mischief.
The refugees in the car were all ashen, they thought they would be saved once Li’s army arrived, but they didn’t expect to be greeted with bad news.
They thought they would be saved once Li’s army arrived, but they didn’t expect to receive bad news.
Almost to the barriers, the private army convoy suddenly stopped, only to see an officer who did not wear the right cap, two thumbs grinning and gouging at his belt lecturing, “Na, we also do not want you to go to work hard as a soldier to work, but we also received the order from the peak really have no choice.”
Some refugees begged, “Sir, I have bad knees, I really can’t be a soldier.”
There were also women who pleaded, “We really don’t know how to sew anything, we really haven’t done this before.”
The officer of the private army laughed in a friendly manner and said, “If you learn, you will be able to do it, but I have another solution here, I am very familiar with Mr. Li who is in charge of recruiting, if you all have an idea, I can help you to talk about it, but this is not something that can be done by just talking about it, so let’s get it right first, I have nothing to gain from this, but it’s just a favor to help you to plead for it.”
Ren Xiaosu realized in his heart, this is the opening to ask for benefits.
Someone immediately took off his wrist watch, “Sir, this is a Flying Bird watch, I just bought it last year.”
The officer immediately smiled with an open brow, “Register him on …… Is there anyone else who wants to be exempted from military service labor service?”
Wang Fugui immediately came up and pulled the officer aside, “Hello sir, my name is Wang Fugui, I have 100 antibiotics here, and there are also 5 best watches here, it’s just that there are a bit too many of us who want to be exempted from military service.”
The officer’s eyes went straight when he heard about the 100 antibiotics, and when he heard about the five watches, his eyes popped out!
Wang Fugui quietly said, “We mainly have more than twenty students here, think about it, what can students do? They can’t do anything, and the students are the foundation of our future, ah, they are now going to be soldiers and female laborers, isn’t that a pity?”
The officer glanced at Wang Fugui: “Female students can be exempted, but male students can’t, to tell you the truth, men of military age must be enlisted in the army, this is the bottom line, if I dare to step on this line, I’ll be shot tomorrow.”
Wang Fugui was anxious when he heard this, others can not care, Ren Xiaosu can not go to be a soldier ah, he pointed at Ren Xiaosu and said, “Just now you are not exempted from a person’s military service?”
“The one who was exempted from military service just now is not hiding from you, he is old and is not in the scope of conscription per se,” the officer laughed.
Lao Wang completely understood, labor service can be exempted, but military service is definitely not exempted, and just now that middle-aged man who turned in his watch, purely as a wrongdoer only, he changed his approach and said, “Look at that person, you don’t look at his face tender, in fact, it’s just a well-maintained, to say not afraid of your joke, he is my uncle… …”
“Grass,” the officer was all happy at that time, “I say old Wang you don’t even want this face ah, say no, you can’t, these antibiotics and watches can only exempt the girls from the labor service, they are at the right age, military service can’t be exempted.”
Wang Fugui sighed, Wang Dalong and Yan Liuyuan didn’t reach the age where they didn’t have to go, but now this situation seems Ren Xiaosu and Chen Wuxi they went to become soldiers has become a certainty, there are also those eight male students from Jiang Wu.
