Chapter 367, Running Toward the Wilderness of Hope
Ren Xiaosu didn’t know what was happening on the southern front, he just looked at the flames in the 88 Barrier and knew that the barrier was probably finished.
The 88 Barrier’s resident garrison was now down to the strength of one independent infantry regiment, and if it was a normal garrison, even if an infantry brigade came in, it wouldn’t be able to knock it down, unless it was an armored brigade or a rocket force.
But the whereabouts of all of Qing’s regular combat sequences were under Yang’s intelligence control, and it would have been impossible for them to allow Qing’s heavy firepower combat units to come so close to the 88 Barrier.
However, the nano warriors had relied on their high mobility since they had moved north, always traveling through the mountains and never showing themselves on the main roads, and those treacherous terrains that normal troops, simply could not traverse, were as easy as walking on the ground.
This is also the reason why Qing Zhen chose this nano troop to infiltrate the Yang Clan, even the elite of Qing Zhen’s men can’t break through the Yang Clan’s blockade silently.
But the nano warriors could.
At this moment, the fire was spreading all the way to the north, and Ren Xiaosu realized that the trend of that fire was a pure straight line, just like a precise scalpel, plunging straight into Yang’s vitals.
After destroying the gates to break through the barriers, this group of nano warriors didn’t tangle with the defenders at all, but continued all the way north to directly destroy Yang’s manor and kill all the Yang’s executives inside.
Although Yang’s senior management is distributed in more than a dozen barriers, it accounts for more than 60% of Yang’s manor in the 88 barriers, if this place is destroyed, I’m afraid that Yang’s will immediately fall into the state of a group of dragons without a leader.
With the front line collapsing and the rear dragons without a leader, I’m afraid that at that time, the Qing Clan will drive in and devour this already broken Yang Clan bit by bit.
“Eh.”
When Ren Xiaosu heard the sound, he turned his head to see Zhou Yingxue slowly waking up, Zhou Yingxue stared blankly at the firelight, and the roar of hot weapons accompanying her ears, she suddenly became anxious: “Let go of me, my mom is still at home!”
Ren Xiaosu froze for a moment, he hesitated for a second and walked in front of Zhou Yingxue and said: “You and I have no grudges, before it was the position that I don’t blame you for spying on me, but I’m going to untie you, don’t make any trouble, understand?”
Zhou Yingxue calmly looked at Ren Xiaosu, “Good!”
After saying that, Ren Xiaosu cut off the hemp rope on Zhou Yingxue’s body, only to see Zhou Yingxue leap out of the courtyard wall without stopping and disappear.
At this time, Ren Xiaosu was not afraid of Yang’s coming to obstruct them, after all, Yang should have already taken care of herself by now.
Suddenly, in front of Ren Xiaosu’s door, there was the ear-piercing sound of tires rubbing against the ground, Luo Lan yelled, “Ren Xiaosu, hurry up and follow me, we have to leave this place, that group of Li Clan’s Nano Warriors are red-eyed, they don’t care whether or not we are Yang Clan’s people.”
Ren Xiaosu pushed open the door of the courtyard, only to see many people in the barricade walk up the street to watch the fire in the sky, there are also some people to the façade of the building to hide, as if they can be safe at home.
There were two transportation trucks parked in front of the entrance, while around the trucks were Qing’s soldiers who were on guard, these soldiers had long lurked into the 88 barriers, but Luo Lan knew very well that these soldiers couldn’t save him at all, and could only be responsible for picking him up.
Ren Xiaosu helped Wang Fugui, Sister Xiaoyu and the others to get on the truck, and within a short span of 2 minutes, everyone had all entered the truck’s bucket in an orderly manner.
Luo Lan yelled, “Drive drive drive, I don’t want to be buried along with this 88 wall!”
Ren Xiaosu looked back at the fire, there were fifteen hundred nano warriors over there, ah, even if they picked up some random nanobots, it would be enough to arm everyone present.
But he couldn’t take the risk anymore, he knew the importance!
If he turned back now, he might take everyone’s life, Ren Xiaosu would rather not have those nanobots.
The two trucks winded their way through the streets towards the Eastern Gate, this fleeing for their lives gradually terrified the residents of the Barrier who saw the two trucks, and everyone followed the direction of the trucks to flee for their lives.
“Ren Xiaosu,” Luo Lan shouted from the bumpy bucket, “Come with me to Qing!”
Ren Xiaosu glanced at Yan Liuyuan before shaking her head, “No go.”
Luo Lan was puzzled, “Follow me to Qing’s, you’ll be able to eat and drink spicy food, have money to spend, and have a luxury car to ride in, when the time comes you’ll be driving around in a luxury car with a beautiful woman, won’t that be a quick life?”
Ren Xiaosu smiled, “I’ve thought about this before, but I already have a better place to go now, I still think the wilderness suits me better.”
Yan Liuyuan’s eyes lit up, “Brother, where are we going?”
“A new home,” Ren Xiaosu smiled, “A place of hope.”
Yan Liuyuan paused for a long time, he suddenly said, “Brother, thank you.”
“Why thank me,” Ren Xiaosu said, “I really think it’s nice there.”
Luo Lan lamented, “Xu Concealment said about this in his message to me, so I can only give my blessing, in the future, you can come to our Qing’s to have some fun, and you can report my Luo Lan’s name wherever you go.”
“Well,” Ren Xiaosu nodded, “I’ll be there.”
Not going to settle in Qing Clan, but you can go and have fun ah. Only that would definitely be a long time from now, I’m afraid that the current Qing Clan would be caught up in a war for a long time, nowadays the Qing Clan was no longer a pure consortium, but a war machine.
“However, the bridges in the north should all be broken at this time, how are you going to get to the north,” Luo Lan said curiously, “Nowadays, there is a big river separating the north and the south, you are not going to be able to get there.”
“It’s fine, I have a way,” Ren Xiaosu responded calmly.
Nowadays, the bandit organizations in the north that were under the control of the Qing Clan had all moved south, not only destroying the bridges, but also destroying all of the Yang Clan’s factories that stood in the wilderness.
If it were before, he would not have been able to cross the river, but he could now, thanks to the steam train sent by Wang Congyang.
Ren Xiaosu had tried it long ago, the steam train was as good as any terrain it encountered, and the rails that came from nothingness were perfectly capable of crossing the river!
The two trucks arrived in front of the east gate, there were already very few defenders here, when they were just about to come over to check the vehicles, Qing’s soldiers got off and broke through in an orderly manner, those private troops who were responsible for guarding the gates, where were they a match for Qing’s regular army?
By the time the Qing soldiers blew the gates open, the trucks broke through the smoke haze at the gates and drove off into the wilderness.
This escape from the barriers was easier than any other time in the past, and Ren Xiaosu even felt his mood open up the moment he rushed out of the barriers with Yan Liuyuan and the others.
Everything was moving in a good direction, and Ren Xiaosu was beginning to look forward somewhat to their future in the wilderness.
Only to turn around and see the smoke that he saw roiling in the sky above the 88 Barrier, Ren Xiaosu suddenly felt that this didn’t seem to be something to be happy about either.
This era, was intensifying the collapse.
Could they really be alone in the wilderness?
