Chapter 55：The story of the fortress or Dara is sleeping again

"Sorry, no car!" Baraz said with regret.

"I won't go along the ridge anymore, I've left eating food," he said with inner fear.

I won't go either, a whimper, a whimper, Barno cried, they carried me like a sandbag, I was very uncomfortable, I was so afraid! No no! Let's go on foot! On the way to! she began to act up.

"On the way? We'll only be there for half a day and get back half a day!" Dara was indignant.

"I've gotten great," he said proudly.

Everyone looked at each other, this fool, so arrogant! Insolent fool! He eh slept!

- Do not worry, the eskoskeletons have the function of transformers, now they will become like buggies, we will get in about 30 minutes, easily. Fang noticed.

Fang turned away to the side, he chuckled in Chinese with a laugh, just need to experience this mode, and laboratory mice fell under the arm just right!

Baraz didn't look at Fang like that, does Baraz seem to know Chinese ?!

Quickly collecting things, placing them in transformed exoskeletons - turned into buggies, they were about to go downstairs. But then Dara dumbfounded everyone, saying that he did not know how to operate the machine. Charles! 21st century! And you still do not know how to control the machine ?? !!!

"Well, what do you want, a car for our family is unacceptable luxury! A car costs $ 20,000 and my scholarship is $ 70, a part-time job of $ 80. Grandfather, against saying that he would put me in a company, we need to do everything with our work. And with us, you know, if you don't have connections or if someone doesn't recommend you to work, you won't find a good job, "Dara said.

"With such minimum wages, where does the car come from?" he said.

"And there is a lot of work, but it is all soiled at the level of 80-100 dollars and you need to work for 12 hours!" he said.

Eh, okay, that's enough, we are not interested, said the capricious young fifochka, who lived on the family's money and never seriously and independently worked.

"Fool"! said Dara in hearts.

Himself a fool! Barno answered right away.

Fang and Baraz grinned, real children, even though they were 20 years old.

- Alright, stop talking! Go! said Fang.

...

After about 50 minutes, they were on the foothill plain, Fang again had to control the exoskeleton remotely from Dara, who again fell asleep. Eh, you need to teach him how to drive a car, otherwise he will always be like a burden, Fang thought.

They immediately found a well. On the old map of Bolshokov, this place was listed as a fort of all mountains, an old clay fortress of the 17th century. Previously, it served to block the road from the capital of Small-An, to the capital of Bolshoi-An from nomads. And also it collected customs duties from passing caravans.

This fort could accommodate up to 300 guards. The armament of which was bows, spears, rarely motley guns from wicks to cream, and three copper Chinese guns and two Persian cast-iron. The gunners were led by a fugitive soldier from the first empire.

In the mid-19th century, the fort was disbanded, during the colonization of the first empire of the Principality of Small-An. But at the beginning of the 20th century, a police station was opened there with 15 police officers and one machine-gun crew. They again covered the northern road from the robbers, they were deserters from the First World War. And in 1917 they fled, and then the fortress remained until 1956, until it was finally demolished and the land put into agricultural circulation. Such was the fate of most of the old fortresses of the Principality of Small-An, and of the newly built forts of the first empire. The second empire, they were for the most part no longer needed.
