If those people were like Mountain Men, then they'd be stuck in their bunkers like the Mountain Men.

For an army, they'd need hundreds of hazmat suits. Since the trip would take days/weeks, it's unrealistic for them to eat & take care of bodily functions while stuck in hazmat suits. To fix that, each of their trucks would have to have airlocks and advanced air filtering systems (otherwise, they'd have to transport enough clean air to last days/weeks for the entire army).

In short, they'd have to have a lot more manpower and tech than the Mountain Men had. And they'd need a good reason to assist the Mountain Men since they'd know in a direct conflict many of their men could die.
