Chapter 64: Departure (2)
Very punctual, at half past five in the morning, the assembly was completed. Because it was an activity with the military, Ouyang Zhi and the others also sat on the military card, of course, with Yu Zhoushan. Without alarming anyone, the car drove out of the base in an orderly and quiet manner. No one paid attention to the convoy except for the survivors outside the base gate who were still waiting to enter the base.
As far as the base is concerned, they are just following the orders of the central government to go out on a mission. Even because he didn't go to collect supplies, he only got a trivial material subsidy from the base.
The military cards are all men, and it is very inconvenient for Chen Yan and a woman to mix in them. Yu Zhoushan gave up his position in the co-pilot and sat in the back compartment with the others. Ouyang Zhi: They were also there.
What needs to be said was said yesterday, and the mobilization that needs to be done has also been done. Yu Zhoushan believes in his soldiers, so it is quiet in the car now. Each soldier had a blank face and sat upright. For the four extra people in the car, Yu Zhoushan had already explained to the soldiers before the assembly. Therefore, the other soldiers did not pay much attention to their presence here. On the contrary, Ouyang Zhi was observing these soldiers one by one. It can be said that what kind of generals will bring out what kind of soldiers. This can be reflected from Yu Zhoushan.
After advancing for an hour, Yu Zhoushan spoke up.
"Soldiers, we are now out of the safety of the DQ base. The safe route previously cleared by the base is about to be closed. Next we're going to take a route that has never been cleaned up before. Along the way, there will be many dangers that we can't think of. But, I believe in you, we can be afraid, but we will not back down. We are not cowards! ”
"We are not cowards! We are not cowards! We are not cowards! Yu Zhoushan's words were transmitted to the other two military trucks through the guò walkie-talkie. When Yu Zhoushan's voice fell, loud slogans came from the three military trucks at the same time.
When the slogan died down, the car also turned a corner and walked towards a route that the base had never been to before. At this time, except for the roar of the car's engine, everyone was silent. Sound attracts zombies, a rule that has been known to all survivors. They try not to make a sound so that the car can go a little longer. This way they can also get to their destination a little earlier.
The scattered zombies encountered along the way were shot by the soldiers in the carriage in turn. One is to clean up the zombies, and the other is to exercise the accuracy of the soldier's shooting. Sharpshooters smell of bullets. This statement is the truth. In the past, even in peacetime, even exercises were mostly conducted with live ammunition, and there were very few opportunities to actually use live ammunition. At least teams like theirs don't need to use them twice a year. So now the opportunity has come, plus Ouyang Zhi promised to supply enough ammunition. Yu Zhoushan no longer restrained the soldiers, and let them fight. Rotate for 30 minutes in groups of 4.
It has to be said that although the consumption of bullets is large, the effect is also obvious. At first these soldiers had only fifty or sixty hits, and after a few hours of shooting, the hits of each of them increased. You know, in a swinging car, to accurately hit the head of a moving target, the requirements for the gunner are very high. So for these soldiers, not to mention Zhou Shan himself, Ouyang Zhi is also satisfied. Of course, these soldiers cannot be compared with special forces.
In a hurry, there was no stop to rest at noon. Everyone settled their lunch in the car with a bottle of water and a pack of compressed biscuits. On the way, stop for 5 minutes every 3 hours to solve physiological problems.
This was the way for 7 hours. The zombies destroyed along the way are calculated according to the bullet consumption and hit rate, which is not less than 3000. Of course, this is also because the cars are all from national or provincial highways, and there are not too many zombies on the road. If you enter an urban area, there may be more than this number in a small area.
At 3 p.m., the car passed through a village. They came down from the national highway an hour ago. That section of the national highway was blocked. A tanker truck overturned and exploded, affecting nearly 100 vehicles. At least 300 meters of the road were completely blocked. The aftermath of the explosion left there free of zombies. On the other hand, the road was also broken. So they had to get off the national road and walk on the trail.
There are many of these trails underneath the national highway, especially near the toll office. These trails were built by local villagers. Not on the map, as many drivers who often run cars know. In order to avoid highway tolls, many cars will go off the national highway and take the trail, and then go back to the national highway after the toll office.
The army will have its own satellite map. In the military's map, these trails are also marked. Yu Zhoushan has a copy in his hand. It was given to him by Tang Tao for the sake of his old comrades-in-arms. In addition to these trails, the map also has a few village markers along the way to your destination. Strategic reserve points like the military are no longer available on this map. It should be said that each level in the military corresponds to a map with different details. Tang Tao will have the corresponding map or more detailed in his hand, after all, although he is the division commander, but his family background is not small, but he will definitely not give the most detailed one to Zhoushan.
Looking at the map, at the end of this trail is a village. It's already 3 o'clock, and in just over an hour it will be dark. He had to find a suitable place to stay before it got dark. At the moment, this village seems to be the best choice.
Ouyang Zhi did not interfere with Zhoushan's decision. Along the way, they all play the right civilian role. I didn't communicate much with Yu Zhoushan. Because the people arranged by Zhao Lingyi and Tang Tao were also in this car. The other two cars also have one on each. Therefore, the current top leader in the team is Yu Zhoushan.
"Hold on a little longer, there's a village 20 minutes ahead, and we'll rest there tonight." Yu Zhoushan said to the soldiers in each car on the walkie-talkie.
The soldiers did not cheer at this. After many years of military service, they have long been accustomed to this bumpy life. Besides, it is not known whether the village is safe or not, and there may be a battle before the rest. After all, there will definitely be people and domestic animals in the village, so there may be zombies and zombie beasts.
At the entrance of the village, all three military trucks turned around. That way, even if something is wrong in the village, they can get in the car and drive away. 30 soldiers were signaled to come out to check the village, and the rest were on guard in place. Yu Zhoushan didn't follow up, but Guan Jie followed. Zhao Lingyi and Tang Tao's people didn't go in either. Along the way, they all kept quiet, and when it was their turn to shoot the zombies, they didn't resist, as if they were Yu Zhoushan's soldiers.
