Chapter 28 Transaction
The rain was falling from the sky. Allen looked sideways at the misty road outside the window. The speed was very slow. Some of his men on motorcycles temporarily found a place to take shelter from the rain until the weather cleared.
Fortunately, with this rain, it seems that you won't meet anyone on the road. Traveling on rainy days is fatal to many people, so Alan can go to the city boldly and safely.
This time Allen brought out all elites, each equipped with a long-range sniper rifle and 100 rounds of ammunition, including an automatic rifle, 500 rounds of ammunition, and some grenades.
The doctors have listed in detail the medical equipment they need, as well as a small number of medical drugs. The accompanying doctors are sitting in the back of the truck, wearing body armor and helmets. Doctors are extremely important existences in Allen's society.
Now Allen asked the doctors to find ways to find some younger people, or people with more flexible brains, to teach them medical-related knowledge, which is extremely important for their overall society.
Relying on the foot of the mountain, Allen also had an idea. It would be enough to absorb some outstanding talents and develop his kingdom to 1,000 people at a certain time, which was also the limit.
The two-day journey is not too short. They must move forward at a constant speed to reduce energy consumption. The way down the mountain is relatively easy, but it will be troublesome to go up the mountain.
So Allen had to get a large gasoline truck in the city to transport most of the supplies.
"Alan, I don't think there's any need to talk to them. Those treacherous guys started attacking us as soon as we left them."
A confidant muttered, and Allen smiled.
"I don't want anyone to suffer any losses. Don't do anything unless it's absolutely necessary."
"Everyone is on alert for what's ahead."
In a daze, Allen saw some light. He immediately picked up the megaphone on the car and shouted. Everyone behind the truck woke up and everyone picked up their weapons. The car slowly approached the light source and stopped on the side of the road.
Allen saw a small truck with a light on such a rainy night. There were some people in the truck. Allen walked over with a few men.
"You must have come from above."
Allen walked over and saw a family of several people cooking in the cargo box behind the truck. There were seven people in total. The man at the head looked very happy.
"Did you modify this?"
Allen asked, and the man said with a smile.
"I used to be an automotive engineer, and I modified this car myself to make it a multi-functional car."
Allen looked at it with interest, and then the man asked happily.
“Is it really all farmland up there?”
Allen nodded and explained some of the things that the man was worried about. The man laughed excitedly. His family members also looked very happy. The man also carried an automatic rifle on his back and was able to come here all the way from other places. It's really not easy, these people are all injured.
After confirming that there was nothing wrong, Allen turned around and planned to leave, but with the sound of rattling, the man behind Allen immediately changed his face.
"Give us some of the supplies in your car, sir. You don't want any problems."
Allen smiled slightly. He glanced at other places and could see something, which should be corpses. The people who could come here were not simple.
"Why don't you go your way and we go ours, sir. You only live once."
Allen said, and the man took a step forward.
boom
Gunshots rang out, and the man behind Allen was headshot in an instant. Allen reacted quickly and fell down, and the two men who followed him fired decisively, and sniper rifles in the distance sounded continuously.
The battle was over in less than 30 seconds. Allen was pulled up from the mud by two men. He took off his coat and looked at the dead family in the car.
"Take their stuff away."
Soon the men came over, and in a short time they plundered everything in the pickup truck, including the corpses, and also found some candies.
Allen and his confidants have all walked through this hell. This man thinks too simply. If he doesn't plan to take action, Allen and the others will not do anything. But when he steps over and wants to use his gun, The moment they took hold of Allen's head, they were already dead.
Allen was so leisurely along the way, which is why most of his confidants were willing to follow him. Soon the truck started. Allen and the others took a look at the small truck with chemical batteries, and then moved the body to the road. On the other side, I plan to contact my subordinates and ask a few subordinates to drive this small truck with sufficient electric power.
It was already noon the next day when the car was halfway through the journey, and they would arrive in the city in more than ten hours.
Allen led everyone to start cooking. There was still a lot of blood on the small truck last night. Some of his men went to the nearby river to fetch water and planned to clean it.
The group of people started to light a fire and cook. Allen looked at the map. This was the map of the previous city. Even though the city had changed greatly, many routes would not change.
There are two hospitals and six clinics in that small city. This is the first place Allen and the others go to. One of the hospitals has been abandoned, but you can still find some useful things in it.
Another hospital is under the control of a gang of more than 200 people, and there are still many things that can be used. Allen had only seen the other clinics in the area under his control before, and some clinics still had medical equipment.
Allen planned to go to some clinics first to see what he could find, and then go to the abandoned hospitals. If he was unlucky and couldn't find all the things he needed, Allen had to negotiate with the leaders of those gangs and get medical equipment from them.
Allen planned to plan a few routes first, so that everyone would not be too scattered, and could only search in a carpet-like manner, and also ensure that they could escape unscathed when they encountered danger.
Soon while eating, Allen took the map and the red and blue pencils and began to draw lines on the map for everyone, asking them to remember every place in detail, and the team leaders of each five-person team would communicate with each other by radio when they took action.
Allen would serve as the commander-in-chief to let everyone change the route or respond at critical moments.
The whole process lasted for three hours. After many people remembered it, Allen and his team started.
The truck was wandering on the mountain road until 3 a.m., and they could already see some lights on the opposite side. This time point was just right. When they arrived, it was around 5 a.m., and many people were resting at this time.
Soon at 5 a.m., Allen drove the truck into a place full of abandoned cars and trucks in the southwest. This was the best cover. Allen led his men into the city. This was originally the area managed by Jed and his men, but everything here had been looted and no one lived there.
With the help of the dim light, Allen wore night vision goggles and led his men into the city. Sure enough, everything here was deserted, and many houses had been emptied. Allen and his men first came to the first small clinic, which had some shriveled corpses. It seemed that there had been a gunfight here, and the cabinets in the house containing medicines were empty.
Someone turned on the flashlight, and the doctor made a detailed identification. Everyone began to search the clinic. Soon, a multifunctional medical bed that could still be used was still there, with a dried corpse lying on it. After Allen and his team moved the corpse away, the doctor checked the bed and confirmed that it could be used, as well as a broken instrument next to it.
"This instrument should be repaired."
It was an electrocardiogram instrument. Allen and his team soon brought the bed and the electrocardiogram back to the truck, and they also found some protective masks, including some protective equipment, some unsealed syringes, and a small amount of medicine.
Although many things looked fragmentary, they were enough for them. In order to make it more convenient, Allen asked someone to drive a small truck with a chemical battery over, but without turning on the lights and driving very slowly.
According to the route drawn yesterday at noon, Allen and his team were going directly to the abandoned hospital. They took advantage of the night to move more useful things. The abandoned hospital was located in the east, and no one lived here anymore.
Because there had been a conflict with Jed and his people before, but when they walked near the abandoned hospital, Allen found that there should have been a large-scale conflict here after they left.
The hospital was full of traces of conflict. Allen and his team found some empty oxygen cylinders as soon as they entered, and found the corresponding oxygen-making items in the warehouse. They selected five relatively new oxygen cylinders and put all the oxygen-making materials on the small truck. While no one was around, two people were responsible for transporting them back to the big truck.
"They really don't care about medical care anymore."
After searching for a while, the doctor looked at some surgical instruments with joy. This was very good stuff for them, and Allen was relieved. If his wife had a difficult birth, she could only have a cesarean section. Soon they collected a full set of surgical equipment.
Many of the equipment can still be used. If they are taken back and spliced together, a modern operating room can be made.
After carefully searching in some warehouses in the hospital, a lot of medicines were still found. Many of these randomly discarded and scattered medicines were not unpacked. Because doctors here are too scarce, Allen tried his best to find 10 doctors along the way and brought them all the way here.
The harvest of this trip was very rich. At 7 a.m., Allen and his team had moved a lot of things back to the truck, and they could get more things, but now they still needed a truck.
"I think we should go back first, Mr. Allen. It's almost dawn. If we are discovered, it will be troublesome."
Some men observed the situation on the top floor of the hospital. A few hundred meters away from them, they could see signs of a gang's activities.
Allen hesitated for a moment and said.
"We must take away what we can take this time. After all, this is our last time to come down. As long as we ensure medical treatment, everything will go smoothly in the future."
Allen and his team continued to search. There were too many things that could be used in this abandoned hospital. Unfortunately, many people here could not use them because they had no medical knowledge. When they were in this city, Allen had secretly counted the number of doctors, and there were less than 30 people.
And many doctors and nurses in the hospital had been killed in some conflicts before. These gang members had no brains at all. They had no idea how important doctors and nurses were in such an era.
Allan not only has 10 doctors here, but also more than 50 nurses. Allan has been protecting them all the way to prevent these women from being killed, and they have played a very important role in all aspects.
The sky has been slightly bright, and there is almost no sunlight here. The whole city seems to be dead, and there is no sound at all.
Allan took some people to the location of the gang in front. After observing around, Allan quickly determined some sniper locations. He planned to talk to the leader of the gang and get a truck from him. Allan can exchange some food.
Bang
The gunshots rang out, and soon the block in front of him was crowded with people. Many people came out with weapons. Allan held a loudspeaker and shouted behind the bunker.
"You bastards, we just left not long ago and you made this place like this. Let your head Harry get out of here."
When Allan's voice sounded, many people looked terrified, especially those who were Allan's men before. Many people took weapons and occupied some high points, and then began to wait. After a while, a man ran over.
"Alan, I didn't expect you to come back again. How come you can't survive on that grassland? Hahaha."
"Harry, I'll give you a chance to make a deal with me. We need a truck, and we can give you a lot of food."
For a while, the other side's people started to shout and laughed constantly. Alan didn't intend to be polite with them. He immediately ordered to open fire. Suddenly, seven or eight people on the other side were directly killed. For a while, gunshots were heard everywhere. Alan picked up a sniper rifle and pulled the trigger directly.
Soon the other side began to retreat, looking like they wanted to outflank. Alan had already divided the 30 people into two groups. If they dared to come, they would suffer heavy losses.
Alan would not be like others, even stingy with bullets to only give a few rounds.
"Don't fight, Alan, don't fight."
The other side shouted, and Alan put down the sniper rifle. The other side had lost more than 50 people just moving. They didn't know how many people Alan and his team had come, but judging from the exchange of fire, Alan brought a lot of people.
"Not only can I give you food, I can also tell you important information. Bring the truck over, we will drop off the food and leave. Fill up the gas tank."
