Chapter 1318: How Dangerous Was Crossing the Desert? (1)
If they made it to the border but were trapped, they might as well stay here. At least they had enough food or water to stay alive for a while.
Moreover, the climate in the desert changed rapidly.
What if they encountered a sandstorm in the desert?
“We’ll figure out how to get you out of the country. The real question is whether or not you have to mobilize them to leave here with us.”
Manager Tao rubbed his temples with a headache. He had to think about it.
What did he have to do to find a safer solution?
“You don’t know the climate of the desert. This road’s so dangerous.”
Manager Tao took a deep breath. He had been comforting the people trapped here before.
He told them that the motherland would not abandon them.
They would return to the Empire safely and back to their loved ones for sure, but now...
Someone did come.
However, they were both rather young, their ages combined would be less than fifty.
What did they know?
......
What did they understand?
Didn’t they just show up and say they were going to take a shortcut across the desert?
Wasn’t that stupid?
Of course, he knew that crossing the desert was the closest way, but did they know how dangerous it was to do so?
What’s more, there were old people and children among them.
Ye Tianxin was angry, “I know that, but do you know where the fire has gone? It’s only twenty kilometers away from where we are now.”
“It only took a few hours for them to come here. What are you going to do to face those inhumane, heavily armed soldiers? Are you going to fight their automatic rifles with your mouth?”
Tang Song was terrified that Manager Tao would irritate Ye Tianxin and start a fight with her.
What did it matter if Manager Tao was a big and strong man?
Even so, he was not exactly a match for Ye Tianxin.
Tang Song understood his role and position at that moment.
He just needed to play the role of a peacemaker.
Then, he would do it.
It’s not like he hadn’t done it before.
“Manager Tao, we have no other choice. The current international situation is very tense. The Empire is thousands of miles away from here, so they can’t send airplanes, ships, and buses to the place where we are now. On the way here, all the moving objects on the ground were destroyed. If we hadn’t jumped from the car in time, we would have been buried in a car hit by a rocket. Manager Tao, when Ye Tianxin came here, a once-in-a-century snow disaster had happened in the south of the Empire. The snow disaster did not cause too many casualties because the authorities responded to it properly.”
“There are no airports here, so the planes can’t come. There is no big river or sea here, no ships can come here. I also estimate that those spacious and comfortable buses would be destroyed by a barrage of rockets less than ten kilometers from their start.”
Tang Song had a very sharp tongue.
“Ye Tianxin also came here through the hail of bullets. What did a girl come all the way here for? She can’t be here for a play, can she? Manager Tao, at your age, even if you don’t have a daughter, you may have a nephew or a niece, right? Are you willing to let your nephew or niece come to such a place alone?”
Ye Tianxin never cared what Tang Song and Manager Tao were talking about.
She was well aware of her current situation, and exactly knew what she had to do to complete this mission successfully.
Manager Tao looked at Ye Tianxin’s back. Yes, she looked very young, perhaps too young for him to trust her at all.
