Chapter 790: What the cannon is pointing at
The next day, Heller's "War" announcement ceremony made headlines in major entertainment media around the world, and the star-studded ceremony scene appeared on TV screens around the world, making the global star-chasers excited.
In particular, the shot personally fired by New York Mayor Donald is even more eye-catching, and there is no shortage of reports in major political and economic news, and some media ridicule that Donald may join the film and television industry after leaving office.
Under the shade of the trees on the edge of the mountain, a modified communication support vehicle, the elf and the mouse sat behind the rear of the door and kicked their legs, Lin Zixian and the owl stood together, holding the phone and contacting the knight of the Blue Moon Prop Factory, "How is the response over there?" ”
"It's working very well, and it should be on the road." Jazz, who answered the phone, was standing at the door of the Blue Moon Props Factory, and saw that the general manager David inside was standing by the TV with great excitement, pointing to the cannon that was pulled by the mayor of New York on the TV and telling the employees with great vigour, and many people raised their arms and cheered.
"Get on the road." Lin Zi gave an order in a quiet voice.
"Roger!" Jazz hung up the phone indifferently.
Lin Zixian, who put away the phone, turned around and asked the owl, "Have you inquired about the situation of the nearby garrison?" ”
The owl immediately took out a folded map from his coat pocket and spread it out, and the two of them pulled the map on one side, and the owl pointed to the map and said: "The military airfield 500 kilometers north is equipped with about 200 fighters of various types, and the combat radius radiates half of the North Atlantic, but you don't need to think about it." A hundred kilometers to the south is stationed a rapid reaction force of about 3,000 troops, equipped with 50 helicopter gunships, focused on protecting the entire city. I learned from the mouth of a pilot that this unit has three sets of plans for the target, and once the target is attacked, an airborne unit of 500 people will immediately arrive at the scene for rescue in about half an hour. This rapid reaction force is our key threat, and this is the layout of the barracks. ”
He took out another drawing from his pocket and spread it out, a simple hand-drawn drawing. Lin Zixian watched carefully, pointing to it from time to time to ask about the situation, and the owl gave a detailed answer to what he had learned......
Fifty flatbed trucks pulled fifty replica cannons all the way down the road. It is magnificent, and the drivers who drive the car are painted with oil paint on their faces, wearing the military uniforms of the 70s of the last century, which makes people feel like they have seen the artillery units of the US army in the last century.
However, the plaques on the vehicles betray their true identities, the "War" props, the Blue Moon prop factory in Ohio. Each cannon has the word 'prop' hanging from it.
Anyone who watched the announcement ceremony of Heller's new film last night knows what happened. The car's cannon was impressive last night, and it can still be seen on the news today. Among the pedestrians passing by, some waved the photo of the cannon in the newspaper in their hands and waved to them, and the road patrol officers who met by chance only passed by and admired it after seeing it.
Lin Zixian spent hundreds of millions of dollars to make such a big move, spent a lot of effort, and had no other purpose. That's what I want.
When the convoy reaches a certain section of the road, the car at the back starts to slow down, but the car at the front starts to accelerate.
After a distance of several kilometers, the front and rear trucks suddenly stopped on the road, and the driver quickly jumped out of the car and placed a warning sign on the road. Then pretend to open the hood to check.
The forty-eight wagons in the middle immediately dismounted from the road, dragging the cannons and jolted away into the wilderness, until the sight was difficult to reach, and the two wagons blocking the road immediately returned to normal, returned to the right path, and let the blocked traffic go.
Taking advantage of the fact that there was no one in front and behind, the two cars also quickly killed the road. Fifty cars quickly derailed in different locations, though. But they ran in the same direction, and they were concentrated in a mountain forest one after another.
A camouflage gate opened in front of the mountain wall, and a truck with props slowly drove in, and more than two dozen drivers jumped out of the truck. Quickly run into the secret warehouse to help.
In the warehouse, a masked knife is holding a cable, holding a manipulator, and controlling the hoisting equipment. This guy is wearing a painter's overalls, and he has been busy here alone recently, and he almost didn't get bored.
With the rapid cooperation of more than 20 drivers, they quickly lifted the props on the car and threw them aside, and quickly hoisted the real guy onto the truck, and took more than a dozen boxes of shells that had been repainted and packaged by a knife, and quickly fixed them together.
After hanging up the 'props' sign, the truck slowly poured out of the warehouse, and then the second car drove in. One by one, fifty trucks were reloaded in less than three hours, and the movement was extremely fast.
The knife has recently practiced the hoisting technology well, and the paint work has also been practiced, and it is estimated that he will not be mixed in South China in the future, and he is not afraid of not finding a job.
In fact, every action of these people is a process of learning from each other, for example, many of them have learned to use cannons this time, although this craft is not very useful in ordinary times.
After the convoy left the warehouse, it found a suitable entry point, quickly plugged into the road to form a convoy, and transported a batch of cannons to the designated place in a grand manner.
This group of people is so bold and psychologically good, it's outrageous, and they really dare to do anything.
It took a group of more than ten days to transport 200 cannons and shells back and forth over long distances, repeatedly shuttling through Pennsylvania.
There is no way, Lin Zixian threw so much money and spent so much effort not to make a movie, and it has nothing to do with movie shooting. What's more, it is impossible for the filming location of the film to be placed near the target, it is impossible to shell the target at the shooting site under the pretense of making a movie, and all the smoke screens are to cover up the delivery of these weapons, and the qiē done is only to transport these things.
The funds for the smuggling of stowaways, the expenses for eating, drinking, and paying salaries, the purchase of a large number of vehicles, and the investment and shooting of films. Spending money is like water, and nearly half a billion dollars are gone. There are some things that can't be done just by mouth and the ability to fight and kill, and they can't play without money, these people make money quickly and spend money faster.
Therefore, spending hundreds of millions of dollars for such a small action and occupying so many people's time is not a small price, but the opponent's power is too huge. Despite such careful arrangement, the failure rate was still more than 50 percent, with half success and half failure. In other words, the investment of 500 million US dollars and the hard work of so many people can still be wasted at any time.
Therefore, at the most critical moment, the matter of transporting weapons and ammunition must not be faked to others, but can only be done by one's own people, and there can be no leakage of the slightest rumor or leakage, which everyone understands.
When the two hundred cannons and ammunition were quietly arranged at ten points around the target, Lin Zixian quickly came to the scene and checked one by one with the 'gunners'.
Twenty cannons at each point, all of which were ambushed under the shade of trees in the dense forest, blocked direct reconnaissance in the direction of the target with the help of the mountain. Camouflage nets were also installed between the tree trunks above each cannon, in the words of the 'gunners', to prevent detection by enemy aerial eyes.
There was a crane truck parked in the dense forest at each ambush site, and they had completed their mission. There is a water tank truck parked in the dense forest at each ambush site, because the barrel of these old cannons is easy to overheat after continuous fire, and in order to ensure a saturated attack, it is ready to be cooled down at any time.
The reason why the 200 cannons are scattered in 10 locations is also for safety reasons, and if the situation exceeds expectations, the opponent will immediately use missile attacks, which can also minimize the damage and facilitate the response.
At each point, the 'gunner' personally calibrated the target of the cannon. After inspecting every place and every cannon, he solemnly nodded to Lin Zixian, who had been following behind him.
Lin Zixian only exhaled deeply at this time, two hundred cannons in ten directions had already surrounded the target, the strategic intention had been achieved, the plan was equivalent to 90% of the completion of the plan, and the rest depended on whether his action could succeed.
Turn around and look at the stowaways who are resting in the tent in the dense forest, and then look back into the distance, whether they can turn the goddess manor dozens of kilometers away into ruins tonight, it's up to these people, I hope these stowaways can create a miracle that belongs to Mexican stowaways......
That night, New York was still bustling, and the men and women of the colorful city were partying uncontrollably. Outside a certain US military station, several American GIs in civilian clothes sat on a truck, all of them smelling of alcohol.
They met a bold boss a few days ago, an admirer of American GIs, and today they were once again warmly welcomed by that boss, wine, food and sexy beauties**, if it weren't for discipline, they simply wouldn't want to come back.
When the truck slowed down and turned, four black shadows quickly rushed out of the roadside, quickly reached out and hitched a ride on the car, deftly got under the car, and hung under the car to move forward with the car.
The four people hiding under the car were none other than Lin Zixian, the owl and the black and white impermanence, and all four of them had changed into the uniforms of American GIs.
The truck stopped at the gate post for inspection, and the driver winked at the sentry. The sentry glanced at him, walked around to the back of the truck, uncovered the canvas and turned on the flashlight, and there was a smell of alcohol, and the flashlight fell on the faces of several comrades, one of whom showed the bag in his hand and laughed in a low voice: "I brought it to you." ”
The sentry raised his eyebrows in understanding, pretended not to notice anything, stepped out of the back of the car, and made a gesture of release to the sentry post.
After the truck passed through the customs and entered the barracks and parked the car, the slightly drunk GIs jumped out of the car and whispered for a while, and then sneaked away, fearing that they would meet the officers on patrol.
As soon as they left, the four people hanging under the car poked their heads out to observe the surroundings for a while, and then quickly fell to the ground and rolled out. The owl pulled out a large bag from under the car and put it on its back, and the four of them stood in a line and walked to the target place in a grand manner. After arriving at the designated location, he quickly disappeared into the darkness while no one was paying attention......
