CHAPTER 327: CHAPTER 148: THE REAL ENEMY HAS ALWAYS BEEN THE APOCALYPSE ITSELF

Shen Yue said, "It’s a rocket that has been disassembled for storage," which is actually not accurate.

To be precise, these are two disassembled DF-26 missiles without nuclear warheads.

Rocket engines, missile body structure and shell, navigation and radar systems, warheads...

All parts that could be disassembled have been completely broken down and stored individually in sealed boxes.

The condition of these parts is quite good. Shen Yue even thought that if they could be reassembled, the Huaxia Army could immediately have two of the most elite and powerful weapons on the wasteland.

The only pity is that there are only these two.

Not enough, really not enough.

----But obviously, the Huaxia Army cannot afford to be choosy right now.

"Take them away."

Shen Yue waved his hand broadly and continued to give orders:

"Clear the road first, bring the cargo trucks in."

"Fortunately, this thing is disassembled; if it were stored whole, we might really not be able to move it back."

"Commander, is this thing... very powerful?"

Standing beside Shen Yue, the leader of the second squad of the Huaxia Army, Huang Qiao, asked.

Very powerful?

Shen Yue didn’t know how to describe the power of this equipment to him. After thinking for a moment, he replied:

"If it’s reassembled and functions properly... you could say, we already have considerable strength to enter Mountain City."

"No matter what’s there, they can’t withstand the attack of two nuclear missiles."

"Unless, they can bring out a mid-course anti-missile system."

"But clearly, what we didn’t have before the cataclysm, they also can’t have now."

"Enter Mountain City?"

Huang Qiao stood there in a daze.

He had heard too many legends about Mountain City. In his eyes, Mountain City was a city as dangerous as "hell."

No one had ever been able to enter there, and of course, no one had been able to cause any damage to that city.

Yet now, his commander casually made such a judgment.

So does this mean...

Is the Huaxia Army now unmatched in this world?

He looked at Shen Yue excitedly, and then asked:

"Commander, does this mean... we are now the strongest force in this world? Can we defeat any enemy now?"

"This is the post-apocalypse."

Shen Yue looked at Huang Qiao, his expression serious, and said word by word:

"In this world, our enemies are never something like the Mechanical God Sect, or the Holy Blood Temple, or Mountain City, or monsters."

"Our enemies are all negative factors that hinder the recovery of civilization."

"Food shortages, lack of education, low productivity, harsh living environments..."

"These are our enemies."

"Don’t arrogantly think we are invincible... we just have relatively powerful military force."

"But in reality, we are far from being able to establish ourselves on this land."

"...Understood."

Huang Qiao nodded slowly.

In fact, he couldn’t fully understand what Shen Yue meant.

If not even the strongest monsters or Mountain City are opponents, isn’t surviving a natural thing?

There are so many resources, so much food here.

As long as we eliminate those monsters, even relying just on hunting could sustain everyone....

----Wait.

A flash of inspiration suddenly hit Huang Qiao’s mind.

He realized he had misunderstood.

The civilization the commander refers to is not just the Huaxia Army’s mere hundred people.

What if one day, the Huaxia Army expands to thousands, tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of people?

By then, what will we rely on to survive?

This was an obvious question, but for some reason, Huang Qiao only realized it now.

And from this moment on, Huang Qiao’s heart finally harbored a greater "ambition."

From "surviving" to "letting more people survive," this step of transformation happened quietly....

While following Shen Yue out of the underground facility, he no longer stared fixedly at Shen Yue’s movements.

He looked around flexibly, his eyes filled with an indescribable vitality.

Even during the subsequent road clearing work, the way he swung his machete was much more vigorous than others.

"Take it easy, be careful not to cause rhabdomyolysis."

Watching Huang Qiao, who was drenched in sweat, Shen Yue teased and asked:

"What’s the rush, eager to go back?"

"No."

Huang Qiao straightened up, smiled shyly, and then replied:

"Commander, I just suddenly understood what I’m actually doing."

As he finished speaking, Shen Yue blinked in surprise.

Enlightened?

What the hell?

I don’t think I did anything or said anything, right?

Is being a political commissar that hard to handle?

Although the result is correct, the experience can’t be summarized at all...

Shen Yue instinctively scratched his head, wanted to ask more but eventually gave up.

Whatever.

Take it slow.

After spending several hours, the group carved out a barely passable road for the cargo trucks.

Several trucks operated by Fu Xi entered the underground facility, and then the group loaded the necessary equipment one by one onto the trucks.

In addition to taking the parts for two rockets, Shen Yue also took four additional split nuclear warheads.

These things are compatible with the DF-26’s rocket system. If the rockets can be fully restored in the future, the cards in our hand will really be overwhelmingly strong.

Everything was ready. Shen Yue raised his hand to signal everyone to prepare for withdrawal.

This trip to Huangshan was not considered smooth, and the appearance of two monsters disrupted the mission schedule, but the final result was exceptionally satisfying.
