57 57. Leaving Ernan And Slimes (1/2)
The Catalina cargo ship managed to dock, the crew and the soldiers were helping in unloading the cargo from the ship to the land.
Lord Evan's guard also lenses help to the crew and soldier. The help was appreciated by the crew and soldiers, the Ch-53 helicopter has also been used in unloading the trucks and vehicles.
The trucks were lined and the crew, soldiers, and town guards were loading the cargo into the trucks. The humvees were also being unloaded by the Ch-53 helicopter, as well as one M1128 Stryker.
Lord Evan was talking with the captain of the Bismarck, captain Gustavus.
” Well, there are more people that came here, than what we were expecting. Captain, I'm sure you know something about why these new arrivals are very important.”
Gustavus shakes his head and replied.
” I don't really know Lord Evan, we only received an order from the higher-ups about an escort mission, to be conducted by one of my escort destroyers. ”
They both did not know as this was kept a secret from other lords and official as ordered by the king, this was done so no one will be able to get in the way of the planned transport of cargoes to Sirius. Only the higher-ups in the meeting only know how important the cargo is.
After three hours of unloading the ship, the crew returned to the ship. The soldiers and organizers on the other hand immediately got in the vehicles. They were continuing forward even it was night time.
Lord Evan went to the commander of the platoon and warned them.
” I know that you are the guards of this. strange convoy, but I will warn you immediately to be careful of beasts along the road. There are a lot of them when it gets dark, I am warning you cause I'm very sure with the size of your convoy you will be moving slower than the previous ones.”
The second lieutenant in charge of being a bodyguard replied.
” I'll keep that in mind, sir, but is there any more advice you can give us. ”
Lord Evan replied, ” Nothing.”
The head vehicle then spoke on his radio.
” Ok, we are ready to move, vehicles forward humvees check out the sides of the road. Maintain a speed of 80 kilometers per hour. I know that it will be hard when we leave this city but trust in your vehicles.”
The convoy then started to move forward, they have been allowed to immediately let through the gates, as ordered by Lord Evan.
In the middle of the night headlights of many vehicles can be seen traveling in a line. The convoy was led by a humvee, where the platoon commander of the acting guard was riding.
He was looking at the GPS of the humvees, he was scanning it to know if they were going in the right direction.
He then comments,
” Man this GPS sure is handy, especially in a time like this. A map is definitely useless in this darkness, we cannot see any landmarks that are drawn on the map. Especially when it's a new moon, even the night vision goggles would be useless in this darkness. ”
The driving soldier replies,
” Well it's thanks to the DSAA and their satellites, it sure is very handy for us. I even heard the general has started to ask for some GPS- aided missiles. ”
The commander then said to the soldier his thoughts about the actions of General Joey,
” Hey, it is better to be always ready for everything. So I think General Joey is making a good decision, no wonder he was assigned as the General. ”
The driving soldier spoke, ” Maybe your right lieutenant. ”
