Armored train in the apocalypse

Chapter 136 Gap
Yu Jing brought up several interfaces on the screen and pointed them out to Su Huan, saying, "The most consumed ammunition in this battle was 7.62 rifle rounds, but the battle didn't last long, so only about two thousand rounds were used. According to the ammunition depot monitoring system made by Professor Ma and his team, it can pinpoint exactly who received the ammunition. For example, these 14.5 anti-aircraft machine gun rounds were all used by He Jie, a total of five boxes and five hundred rounds."

In addition to the information Yu Jing mentioned, the document also included the pickup time, photos automatically taken by the camera, and a short video recording.

There is still some ammunition left on the side.

However, the interface is currently very rudimentary, simply piling up various data together, making it look like a system parameter written by a third-rate online novelist, a dense and overwhelming mass that makes one's scalp tingle.

"In addition, four drones were lost, a total of twelve windows on the train were damaged, and three armored sections were extensively damaged and awaiting repair."

"214 ordinary passengers were lost, and 1403 people remain."

Su Huan raised his hand to interrupt, "Wait a minute, I remember there were more than 1,500 people before, how come there are more than 200 missing and only more than 1,400 left?"

Yu Jing's phoenix eyes curled slightly upwards, with a hint of strangeness. "The Steel Council's servants have infiltrated, arguing and shouting to surrender. Some even claim these are prisoners they've captured and want to exchange them for points."

After saying that, he waved away all the images and replaced them with the surveillance footage from inside carriage 19.

Just as I jumped over, I saw the third brother viciously knocking a man to the ground with the butt of his rifle, glaring at me and cursing, "The train conductor said 'soldier'! 'Soldier'! Not these rabble of lackeys. You haven't even seen the enemy's regular army, and you're thinking of exchanging points? What a load of crap!"

The third brother and his friends also witnessed many grand occasions with Su Huan, and grew up very quickly.

After He Jie's guidance, he might be a minor, insignificant character in the monster carriage, but in the ordinary people in the carriage, he is a wolf among sheep!

His fierce aura made him stand out from the crowd.

The man glanced at Lao San and saw Zhang Kai and the others standing behind him with guns, sneering. He then looked around and saw that he was all alone. His companions who had just been demanding an explanation had almost all hidden in carriage 20. Suddenly, he felt a sense of emptiness, and his tone weakened.

"...This is not fair. We also got off the vehicle and fought, but we didn't see any of the other side's 'soldiers'."

The third brother sneered, "Never seen a 'soldier' ​​before? Have you ever seen Lu Xiao?"

The man nodded hesitantly, his meaning unclear.

The third brother pointed to the carriage ahead and said seriously, "You should be glad that Lu Xiao led the whole team to capture a seriously wounded 'soldier' ​​and two people died on the spot. Including himself, the two were seriously injured and are still receiving treatment. They are expected to be bedridden for at least three days."

Shock flashed across the eyes of those around them.

The tactical squad's carriage was closer to them, and they witnessed Lu Xiao being carried up.

I initially thought I was being attacked in a fierce firefight, but it turned out I was being surrounded and seriously injured by a group of people.

"Are you kidding me? Brother Xiao is an evolved being."

Someone murmured in disbelief.

If even severely wounded 'soldiers' are this ferocious, how did the train manage to deal with them?

What kind of enemy is the armed train facing now?
And how strong is that mysterious train conductor whom many newcomers have never met?

The passengers behind have very little information.

Lu Xiao was the strongest person they could come into contact with, possessing immense strength, speed, and ferocious evolved human subordinates.

Some even believe that Lu Xiao is a strong contender for the train conductor position.

But from the few words the third brother revealed, it seemed that wasn't the case at all.

The third brother sneered, "Bullshit! I'm an evolved being too. Although I can't beat Lu Xiao in a one-on-one fight, I can wipe out his squad of eight with just four guns! If we encounter even one of the Steel Council's 'soldiers' at our level, we'll be wiped out!"

……

"Quite self-aware."

Su Huan chuckled after monitoring the situation. Yu Jing continued, "According to Hu Shuo's count, a total of 47 servants boarded, including 3 evolved beings. Because they were suspected of being spies for the Steel Council, they weren't allowed into the crew. Should we deal with them?"

"No, keep it."

Su Huan resolutely refused.

Yu Jing was not surprised at all; the train conductor had three good qualities—lying, scheming, and harboring traitors.

I don't know if it's just a morbid sense of humor or making the best use of resources.

But she felt she had both.

Su Huan would not deal with them unless absolutely necessary.

"What remains is that passengers hope the train can fully implement points redemption, and after observation, passengers at the back have formed a new group."

"Finally, regarding the gains, we gained very little from this battle. We only had a few sets of equipment and two armored personnel carriers, which could carry eight people and were protected against 7.62mm armor-piercing rounds. Unfortunately, they were penetrated by He Jie's machine gun and will take some time to repair. Moreover, there were no matching weapons on the vehicles."

Su Huan rubbed his chin. He didn't care much about the gains; the two troop carriers were a complete surprise.

The real beneficiaries were Qu Hang and Shan Yang.

These are all high-quality seedlings that have been certified by the apocalypse; with a little nurturing, they're guaranteed to be successful.

Most importantly, this was taken from the enemy.

Adding and subtracting have a far greater effect than simply fighting a war.

As for fully enabling points redemption on trains, that's not possible yet.

This is the result of Su Huan's deliberate suppression; currently, the main means of maintaining stability on the train is violence.

Before core members like Xiao Ba reach Tier 1, Su Huan absolutely cannot allow more than a thousand evolved beings to appear later.

The core members form the head, the crew, construction team, and tactical squad form the middle, and the remaining passengers form the tail. This three-tiered structure was carefully considered by Su Huan, with each tier building upon the previous one, and no changes were allowed in the short term.

Even if changes are to be made, they will only occur after the gaps between different social classes have stabilized.

Before things stabilize, Su Huanning would rather leave the remaining thousand-plus people behind unattended, whether they form new groups or fight amongst themselves, it doesn't matter.

Anyway, when needed, he only needs to "plow" the land once.

Even now, he would rather let his third brother and the others work harder than draw passengers from the back to form a train escort team.

Because that would lead to a large number of people "skipping levels," making the existence of tactical squads very awkward.

Su Huan had to maintain a delicate balance within it.

He can easily turn ordinary passengers from "0" to "1", and can also barely turn tactical squads and crews from "1" to "2", but he can't turn Xiao Ba and his crew from "2" to "3". So before Xiao Ba and his crew undergo a qualitative change, the passengers will only be suppressed in the back.

Even if adding a thousand or more evolved beings would be a rapid improvement for the train as a whole, he wouldn't do it.

This is class, even greater than the whole.

So no matter how anxious the passengers behind him were, it was no use; he could only keep it to himself.

Of course, one could also be in a hurry to die, and Su Huan would not stop them.
