Chapter 34 part 1 : Departing

"Look, it's snowing!"

"Why did it snow so early this season?"

"Wow, so beautiful."

"I don't know if it will affect the roads in Atlanta."

"..."

The scene of snow falling quickly attracted the attention of everyone in the area. Some people lamented that the snow came so early, while others were worried that if the snow fell heavily, it would cause problems for them on their next journey.

"It's snowing!"

Sarah looked at the snow in the sky, stretched out her small white hands, and smiled happily when she saw the snow melting in her palms.

After rubbing Sarah's little head, Brian's eyes flashed with worry. The coming of snow is not a good sign for the world.

Three hours later,.

After confirming that there was no problem with the identity of everyone in the area, the military asked the driver of the passenger bus to take the bus out, park it at the designated point, and then began to arrange for civilians to board the bus one by one.

"Come on, slow down."

Brian held Sarah's hand and told her to be careful where she stepped. Under the command of the soldier, he climbed the high steps and boarded the bus.

Since they got on the bus relatively early, there was no one in the seats inside at this time. The two of them walked to the middle seat and randomly found two people sitting side by side. They sat down.

Looking out of the car window, Brian found that the soldiers gathered outside were also starting to board the military truck one after another. Looking at the number of these soldiers, he made a rough estimate in his heart. There were at least nearly two thousand people!

Do we need nearly 2,000 troops to escort 5,000 civilians?

Brian just pondered for a moment, and then he understood the joints. It seemed that in addition to escorting civilians, these soldiers were probably also opening up a safer road for the convoy to escort more civilians from the rear.

Moreover, the firearms carried by those who left Dallas before were required to be turned in, but their convoys were able to keep a pistol for self-protection. I am afraid that when these troops are in critical situations, civilians also has to participate in the battle. The plan is there.

Just as Brian was sitting for a moment, the seats in the car were filled one after another, and the originally quiet car became noisy.

After everyone was seated, a young female soldier holding a rifle walked onto the bus and said to everyone in the car, "Please don't walk around casually. If you have any questions, you can come and talk to me."

Then she sat on an empty seat at the front, staring ahead, waiting for the convoy to leave.

....

Just as the civilians had all boarded the buses and were getting ready, the preparations for the army not far away were also coming to an end.

In a temporarily arranged room somewhere, a detailed map of the United States was placed on the table. Around the table stood three tall men in military uniforms. At this time, they were looking at map carefully, discussing something with each other.

One of the men with a long scar on his face looked at the map and said helplessly, "Originally, this road was not very safe, but now it's snowing outside. It's really unlucky!"

The scar-faced man's name is Harry, and he is the top commander of this trip to the quarantine zone in Atlanta. The two next to him are his staff officers, Corbett and Jasmine. The three of them also make up the top commanders of this trip.

Seeing his commander like this, Colbert said with relief, "It should be fine. If everything goes well, we should be able to reach Atlanta by taking the intercontinental road at noon tomorrow at the latest."

"That's just the most ideal situation." Harry returned his attention to the map, looked at the location of the quarantine zone on their marked route, and said, "We don't know what's going on outside now, and we don't know what's going on on the highway. Clearly, I just pray that nothing big happens along the way."

Seeing the sad faces of the two of them, Jasmine said in a funny way, "You are thinking too much now. Take one step at a time and take a step back. Even if we encounter an infected person, There's nothing to be afraid of with an army of two thousand people,"

After hearing this, Harry rolled his eyes at Jasmine and said angrily, "The number of infected people and the incurable infection are what make them so scary. If you want to escort civilians, can you use your brain and don't rely on force all day long, you reckless man?"

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Just when the three of them were about to continue discussing preparations in case of a crisis, the door of the room was suddenly knocked from outside.

Hearing the knock on the door, the three of them stopped talking for a moment. Harry raised his head, looked at the door, and said, "Come in."

Then the door was opened, and a soldier with a stern face walked in. He gave a military salute to the commander and said in a sonorous voice, "Report to the commander; the troops outside are ready; please give your next order."

"So fast!"
