The Twentieth Chapter Non-Human
After all these years on the high plateau, Hu Song had never felt that the burden on his shoulders was so heavy. The breakage of the transmission shaft was already a thing of the past, but the crisis brought about by the outbreak of the disease was imminent.
It's no problem for Zhao Zhong to bring Kabar from the road engineering team to replace Songba as a guide, after all, Kabar had also followed Xu De in the transportation company and was somewhat familiar with him. However, letting Zhao Zhong send Songba down the mountain all the way to the county town was a proposal he absolutely could not agree to.
That would not only put Song Ba in a more dangerous situation, but also possibly drag Zhao Zhong himself into it.
After all, in the entire plateau troops, only he had sat on Zhao Zhong's car, and no one could compare with his experience of facing death.
Racing drivers are always fighting against death, and Hu Song has no doubt about this. Maybe they themselves don't think so, maybe those thrill-seeking spectators won't think so either, but that's just because they deliberately forget about it, at least that's what Hu Song thinks.
"No way, he can only take Songba to the road construction team with you. Absolutely cannot go down the mountain again, it's really too dangerous."
"Although I also think so, if he has the ability to drive Somba onto the road construction team, he should have the ability to send Somba down the mountain. After all, we are familiar with the conditions on the way, except for a six-way ditch that is a bit dangerous, and other places I don't think there's a big problem, and he also said to slow down at the six-way ditch."
"Slowing down? Do you know what slowing down means for him? It's just going from two hundred to one hundred, what's the difference now?"
Listening to Hu Song's angry roar from the intercom, Xu Chang, who was beside Xu De, couldn't help but chuckle. He didn't expect Hu Song to be so afraid of Zhao Zhong's driving skills, it seems like they'll have something new to talk about in the future.
Although the road engineering team can no longer be said to have nothing to do with this matter, in order to respect Transport Link, Xu Chang still did not insert He De and Hu Song's dialogue.
As expected, this matter ultimately had to be decided by Lien Chan, the president of the KMT.
Wang Sang also hesitated upon hearing the debate between the two. Hu Song and Xu De seemed to be arguing over whether Zhao Zhong had the ability, but they didn't consider the attitude of the person involved in this matter, nor did they analyze the situation based on the actual danger.
However, if things are as Xu De said, the advance of the blizzard will slow down and may linger in the vicinity for a long time. If that's the case, it won't just be Zhao Zhong and his men who will have problems, the county town will also be affected. After all, both the military base and the county town are within the predicted coverage area of the blizzard.
This time's mission only sent two cars up the mountain, not only because the task content was too monotonous, but also because the transportation team had made preparations to support the county town in resisting the blizzard at any time.
Things have now taken a turn for the worse and it seems that everyone will have to be mobilized.
"My opinion is that we can't just rely on our own judgment to decide the issue, nor can we blindly trust Zhao Zhong. I suggest that when Zhao Zhong and his team arrive, you ask Kabar for his opinion first, after all, he was with Zhao Zhong when they went up the mountain and knows the specific driving conditions of Zhao Zhong. Then, when they return to the road engineering team, on the one hand, we should listen to Songba's opinion, but also consider the weather conditions at that time, and finally make a decision."
As for Wang Sang's opinion, Xu De naturally raised both hands in agreement. Hu Song was still somewhat dissatisfied, but he had no way out. After all, Zhao Zhong and the others had already set off, and except for returning by the original route, the jeep could not possibly follow them up to the X392 checkpoint.
His suggestion was not only disagreed by Weide and Wangsang, but also silently rejected by Songba.
In fact, Hu Song still hoped that Wang Sang could listen to his suggestion. That is, after Zhao Zhong brought Kabar up, abandon the jeep and rush to the X392 sentry post with everyone. As long as the X392 sentry post can be electrified and heated, Songba's condition will naturally improve. Moreover, it is possible that with Zhao Zhong's skills, the jeep can really reach the X392 sentry post.
As Hu Song ended the communication, Song Ba's mood was also slightly excited. This not only had hopes for Zhao Zhong, but also deep apologies for Hu Song.
If he had only fallen ill in the past two days, he would have accepted Hu Song's suggestion. But his illness had already lasted for some time, and he knew his own body, absolutely impossible to move forward to a higher altitude area.
"....it's coming, it's coming, so fast!"
Unlike Song Ba and Hu Song's worries, Sa Wang and Dan Dong on the other side were more concerned about when Zhao Zhong could arrive after hearing the news. They weren't unconcerned about Song Ba's situation, but they also knew that they couldn't help with this matter, so they acted as lookouts, and telling Song Ba the good news early was the only thing they could do.
"How is this possible? It's been so little time."
Hu Songming clearly remembered that he hadn't spoken for a long time, and the location of the road engineering team was at least more than 20 kilometers away. In just a few minutes, how could Zhao Zhong possibly arrive on time?
But as he stuck his head out of the car window and raised his binoculars for a closer look, both faces immediately turned deathly pale.
At the end of the road, a Jeep with its headlights on was speeding towards us through the snowstorm. However, the body of the Jeep seemed to be swaying violently from side to side, as if it were on the crest of a wave, looking extremely dangerous.
"This, this bastard, how many people does he want to kill before he's satisfied."
Upon hearing Hu Song's angry roar, Song Ba also picked up the binoculars and looked into the distance. Although his eyesight had already deteriorated severely, with the help of the binoculars, he could still barely see Zhao Zhong driving the jeep approaching in the dim light.
It's already beyond description with driving skills, as if being driven forward by some kind of momentum.
Was it the god of the snowy mountain helping Zhao Zhong to rush and save himself? At that moment, Songba's mind also seemed a bit dazed. He wasn't someone who hadn't seen speeding cars on the plateau before, and even in car convoys, there were people who secretly drove their cars over 100 kilometers per hour at high speeds. Anyway, on the plateau, there was nothing to obstruct them, so they didn't need to worry about having an accident.
But like Zhao Zhong, advancing while shaking at a speed of nearly 100 kilometers per hour, such a scene is indeed the first time for Song Ba to see. It's no wonder that Hu Song was angry and shouted, while Sa Wan and Dan Dong were cheering there.
Zhao Zhong was actually able to drive the car like this. In the habit of highlanders, it's already beyond human power to describe.
