Armored train in the apocalypse

Chapter 60 The Interception Plan
In other words, Su Huan has 24 days to prepare.

Then we'll run into the Steel Council.

According to his understanding from his previous life, the Steel Council initially had three core car teams, each with about a hundred people, but this was quite different from the rabble of the Mojiang Mutual Aid Car Team.

Instead, it is a highly mobile armed force composed of evolved beings and conventional troops.

Even the most basic C-level tactical squad has a clear division of roles, including scout, medic, demolition, sniper, and assault.

A convoy of 100 people could easily sweep away a rabble like the one in Mojiang Huzhu.

By the time the "New City Project" was more than halfway through, the Steel Council had already absorbed over 100,000 survivors, but its expansion of armed forces was very restrained.

When he defected, his force numbered only about ten thousand.

Therefore, initially, we only need to consider these 300 people.

Thanks to good control before the apocalypse, apart from the military and law enforcement agencies, civilians did not have firearms, which are highly lethal.

The first batch of equipment for the Steel Council came from an armory in Qingchuan Province.

Later, the armory was converted into a bullet factory, and Su Huan, as a "power supplier," even served there for a period of time.

The armory is expected to open around the beginning of January, which is about eight days from now.

But based on the fact that the helicopter just flew over his head, Su Huan suspected that the armed council was not so honest. Perhaps they had obtained a batch of weapons through other means before the apocalypse broke out.

With this information combined, the next steps become clear.

Su Huan needs to acquire this batch of weapons before the Steel Council does, and then thoroughly upgrade the armed train.

We'll rescue Lin Jin, who's on the verge of despair, and then pull him into the car.

He's too good at using favors to get what he deserves.

Then, they obtained information about the apocalypse from the Steel Council through peaceful or violent means.

Then, in a seemingly friendly manner, they extort some large equipment.

For example, bullet production lines.

For this exciting plan, Su Huan stayed up for a full day and night. Although he didn't eat a single grain of rice, he is still full of energy.

After carefully going through the blank paper again, I folded it up and tucked it into the diary.

Su Huan got up, stretched, and went into the bathroom.

Looking in the mirror, my palms turned red, and I smeared them on my face.

The newly sprouted stubble was instantly scorched by the high temperature, and the bathroom was filled with the smell of roasted pig hair.

He turned on the tap and saw the clear water flowing out, and he knew that Yu Jing hadn't been slacking off these past two days.

Rinse your face with water and the black marks will be clean.

For Su Huan, who had survived the apocalypse for four years, using his abilities had become an instinct, as simple as waving his arm.

Looking at the energetic young man in the mirror, Su Huan finally got out of the carriage with satisfaction.

The trains have now been rearranged. Following the locomotive is Su Huan's carriage No. 1, the dining car No. 2, the sightseeing car No. 3, and the hydrogen-powered train cars No. 4 and No. 5, which are occupied by the other members of the team.

The space is much more spacious than the old green carriages; without considering gender, 16 people can live in one carriage.

Food storage car number 6, and cars 7, 8, and 9 were originally intended to be used as farm cars. Now that Huang Hai has given him an unexpected surprise, the food recycling project can be put on the agenda.

Of course, you can't grow regular food in the apocalypse; by the time the vegetables are ripe, several generations of people will have already starved to death.

We'll get some post-apocalyptic mutant plants and have Huang Hai plant them.

If this gets messed up again, that son of a bitch will be sleeping on the roof of the car from now on.

Huang Hai, who was busy working in the dining car, was startled, unaware that the train conductor had already vowed to teach him a lesson.

Su Huan turned and got into the front of the car first. The roaring sound carried a stuffy heat, making one feel drowsy as soon as they entered.

The boy in the wheelchair quietly nodded at him.

Then, looking directly at the railway in front of him, a metallic glint flashed in his eyes, and the lever next to the driver's seat was pushed.

"You can drive a train now?" Su Huan asked curiously.

Xiao Ba nodded. "I saw that Uncle Kuan couldn't hold on any longer, so I asked him to teach me something simple, and then we could take turns resting."

"good."

Liang Kuan was sitting in a chair with his arms crossed and his eyes closed, resting, when he suddenly woke up with a start, opening his bloodshot eyes. "Xiao Ba, how much time has passed?"

"You've worked hard. You can get some rest today."

Hearing the slow, deliberate voice, Liang Kuan realized, "Train conductor."

Su Huan patted him on the shoulder, "Where are we now?"

"We just passed through Fengshui City this morning and are about to enter Qingchuan Province."

"Two days and two nights is enough. After we park the car, you and Xiao Ba can come to the dining car."

"clear."

The train began to gradually slow down, and Su Huan first went to the dining car.

A woman in a floral apron was pouring milk into a porcelain cup. The metal spoon clinked against the side of the pot, creating a crisp sound that mingled with the aroma of whole wheat bread from the oven.

A sugar tower was stacked on a porcelain plate beside her. Each time the train turned a corner, the top sugar cube would sway gently, casting a trembling diamond-shaped shadow on the edge of the celadon teacup.

Even when she's so busy, the woman can still find the time to peel nuts, tossing them into her bowl one by one as she peels them, making a tinkling sound, like a cheerful little sparrow.

Upon seeing Su Huan suddenly appear, Yu Yue stood there awkwardly, like a child caught stealing macadamia nuts, clutching them, unsure whether to put them down or continue eating.

Because of what happened last time, she didn't dare use her abilities to cover Su Huan's carriage, so his appearance was quite sudden for her.

Looking at Su Huan's calm face, she was no longer as terrified as she had been at the beginning.

But I still felt a little uneasy.

But after thinking about it carefully, it doesn't seem like a big deal.

She would usually take some food to make her own side dishes, but this time she didn't report to Su Huan.

"You're out? Would you like something to eat? We have roasted snake meat and freshly made bread."

Yu Yue used words to cover up her subtle embarrassment.

However, Su Huan had already noticed her subtle panic and naturally wouldn't let her off the hook. He stepped forward, grabbed a peeled macadamia nut, popped it into his mouth, and savored the taste. "Looks like you've had a good time while I've been busy these past two days."

"crunch~"

The salty, savory fruit was crushed by the teeth.

The woman in front of him blushed from her ears to her neck, her shame clearly visible.

"No, I checked today and this bag of macadamia nuts is about to expire..."

Su Huan swallowed the food in his mouth, threw the sugar cube into the coffee and stirred it. "Oh, this coffee is expired too, right?"

Yu Yue dared not argue further and silently took out the fragrant and soft bread from the oven.

Having seen so many scoundrels who have long abandoned morality and shame, it's really hard to suppress the wickedness in my heart when I see Yu Yue, who is so thin-skinned that she blushes at the slightest criticism.

Su Huan reached out and grabbed it, squeezing the soft bread out of shape with his fingers.

Yu Yue watched as her carefully crafted bread was kneaded and rubbed, a hint of panic escaping between her teeth. But seeing Su Huan's forced smile, she silently shut her mouth.
