Volume 3: The Struggle of the Last Days Chapter 147 The Goal is Changling
On the night of departure, the sky was blue, the silver-white moon hung alone in the sky, and a few faint stars were dotted around it, and under it, a thin light veil was slowly drifting by, and under the light veil, there was a tree shadow like a weed, and next to the shadow, an Iroquois was quietly parked there, and beside Iroquois, two ground staff were carefully examining every inch of its skin through the pillars of light emitted from their helmets.
The building opposite the plane is the location of the preparation room, in this small room, there are seven people around, this is not a good number, these people are Wei Yilin and other four people, a machine gunner, two helicopter pilots, Wei Yilin pointed to the map spread out on the table and said: "We will fly directly to Changling from here." ”
The pilot looked at a humorous young man: "It's too far, if we don't refuel halfway, we have to raise the hot air balloon in the last 100 kilometers." ”
"Hahaha." Sure enough, his words caused everyone to burst into laughter.
Wei Yilin nodded, pointed to the oil depot at the airport and said, "We will refuel here." ”
The pilot shrugged in disbelief: "Sounds a little lighthearted. ”
Wei Yilin ignored whether he was talking the opposite or the opposite: "After putting us down, we will first find out the situation in the oil depot, and after the gas pipe is connected, we will go to investigate the situation at the airport." You are here, waiting for us to come back. ”
"Wait. Such a loud noise will definitely attract infected people. The machine gunner, wearing a bulletproof helmet, raised his hand and objected, "Especially when we are refueling, if the infected come, we are in danger." ”
He didn't exaggerate, because once the helicopter was turned off and refueled, it would be a big target for a while, and if the infected charged at the helicopter, they would have to shoot carefully to defend themselves - if they didn't do well, they might blow up the helicopter.
Wei Yilin was about to prevaricate with something, but he didn't expect that at this time, there was a knock on the door of the preparation room: "Please come in." ”
"Uh, hello......" It was a middle-aged man who came in, he was wearing a slightly wrinkled airline uniform, and his hair was probably the same as the people in the room, freshly cut, otherwise it couldn't have been inch.
"You are?"
I don't know if it's because I'm scared or what, the man said angrily, a little lacking in confidence: "I'm driving a passenger plane, then Secretary Liu just said to me, let me follow you to see if there are any planes there?" ”
The people in the room immediately looked at each other: What the hell is this Jia Zhongquan doing???
"Do you know how to use a gun?"
Unexpectedly, the man nodded: "When I was in the army, I learned." ”
"You used to be in the Air Force?"
"Well, the one who drove the transport plane just retired five years ago."
Wei Yilin nodded, picked up a piece of sticky note paper from the table, and after drawing it a few times, he tore it off and handed it to Qiao Wu: "Qiao Wu, wait for him to go to the armory to get a gun." ”
"Yes."
As soon as the two of them left, Wei Yilin said to the three crew members: "The VIP is here, wait a minute, you have to watch him closely." ”
"We?"
"If he dies, let's see if Commander Jia doesn't smoke until you learn to fly that airliner."
Those three were all big, especially the heavy, and he had to protect all three of them at once! After all, the pilot's marksmanship is definitely not as good as that of a professional gun.
"Clean up and get started in ten minutes." Wei Yilin pulled his sleeve to cover his watch, and then began to clean up the things that were spread out on the table. When the others answered, they rushed out.
"Old Qin." Wei Yilin stopped Qin Tianwu, who was following everyone and was about to go out, "What did she say?" ”
As soon as he mentioned the little girl, Qin Tianwu couldn't help but smile: "I agreed." ”
"Yes, boy." Wei Yilin rolled the things on the table into a circle, clamped it under his armpit, and with his other hand, he didn't forget to hammer Qin Tianwu's chest, "You have to hold it." Don't fall. ”
Qin Tianwu blinked his left eye and raised his thumb: "That's an inevitable drop." ”
Wei Yilin smiled slyly, and said in a strange voice: "Don't be tired." ”
"Huh? I don't care about you. ”
Ten minutes later, everyone rushed to the helicopter, and the man was on his shoulder, straddled a black leather pistol holster, looking very awkward. This time, because the helicopter will follow the whole process, so they are much more relaxed, a lot of things that were supposed to be carried, now put on the helicopter, with only weapons, ammunition, a day's dry food left, but this is a bitter helicopter, because, in addition to helping everyone carry additional things, this poor guy also wears nearly a hundred more locks, these things are not ordinary Shen.
"Engine power?"
"Normal."
"Oil temperature?"
"Normal."
"Hydraulics?"
"Normal."
"Battery?"
"Normal."
"Main and tail rotor?"
"Normal."
"Navigation?"
"Normal."
"Communications?"
"Normal."
In the cockpit, the machine gunner was also checking the machine gun, and this time, he was allowed to bring a few more ammunition boxes, which were placed in a large net, and this net was tethered behind the machine gunner. If he wants to, he can reach it with his hand. Moreover, because of the extra sniper, the ground crew pulled a wire rope at the left hatch of the helicopter, and the height of this wire rope was the same as the machine gun, so Xie Lingguang could mount the sniper rifle on this wire rope to provide cover or precision strikes if necessary.
"It's all tied, right?" The pilot asked, looking back.
The people behind gave a thumbs up, and the pilot nodded, pulled down the communicator on his helmet, and called the tower.
Moments later, a reply came from the tower, allowing takeoff. So after a particularly loud roar, the helicopter slowly left the hard concrete ground, and the process of taking off has always been very dangerous, so the two pilots must pay full attention, and the five people behind also consciously do not make a sound, so as not to cause noise disturbance to them. Fortunately, in the end, it was safe and sound, and the helicopter rose steadily into the air and began to fly level.
The machine gunner aimed at the distant hill and began to test the working condition of the machine gun, and when everything was in order, the long wait began.
"Lao Wei, you said that after finishing the ticket at the airport, then Old Man Jia should stop, right?"
Wei Yilin shook his head vigorously: "Then he will let us go to find fuel, now it's April, Ren'an's fuel is almost used up." ”
"Where are we going to find him?"
"There are so many gas stations in Lianghe, pumping them one by one."
Qin Tianwu almost didn't vomit blood: "When does this have to be drawn?" ”
"It's the only way." Wei Yilin thought for a moment and added, "Before the military's transport plane can land in Lijiang." ”
The runway of Changling International Airport is 3,200 meters long, and even the largest "galaxy" transport plane in Chixian County can take off and land smoothly, but the problem is that all the transport aircraft wings are in the hands of the General Staff Headquarters, and Jia Zhongquan's relationship does not seem to be so extensive. It doesn't matter, you can only sort it, but this sorting, I don't know, has to be ranked in the Year of the Monkey - after all, this safe area scattered in the fourteen lanes is thousands to say the least, and the total number of transport planes has only reached a fraction of them, and the number of materials available for mobilization is even less. As for the illusory international humanitarian aid, it is safe to say that even painting bread to satisfy hunger is more realistic than it.
"I wish they had come sooner." The pilot, who had been silent since the big takeoff, suddenly said, "The parts of this plane are running out, if they are not replenished, it will not take two months, and before each flight, what we have to do is to pray, not to check the condition of the aircraft." ”
"Running out of parts so soon?"
"If you fly a long flight every three days, you don't know how delicate this helicopter is." The pilot laughed and said, "It's just an aunt, you have to keep touching up its makeup to keep it young and beautiful." As soon as you stop, it won't be long before it becomes an old woman. ”
"Hahahaha."
"Hahahaha."
"Are you the devil?"
"Therefore, the current war is about logistics, and to put it bluntly, it is about throwing money at life, and whoever spends more money will win." The pilot seems to have calculated an account in his heart, "This time a small repair and a small repair, to say the least, it will cost 10,000 yuan, if you come to a medium repair, haha, it is worth ten years of salary, if it is a major repair...... With the money spent, you can buy a supercar. ”
This account seemed to really scare Wei Yilin and the others, and Qiao Wu couldn't help but say: "Ten years of salary?" ”
"That's the money for a kitchen and a bedroom."
"Where are you from? Property prices are so high? It was Xie Lingguang who spoke.
"It's just the third line, has Pang Yang heard of it?"
"Yinggan Pangyang?"
"Yes, that's the place."
The pilot said, and began to laugh at himself again: "Fortunately, I don't have the money to buy a house, otherwise, I won't live for a few days, and I will let the madman take possession." ”
Some people were amused by him, and some people lowered their heads.
The roar sounded suddenly for an hour and a half, and the pilot turned on the high-power searchlight directly under the fuselage, and in an instant, the decentralized building was shrouded by a huge circle of light, which was a modern building with ancient charm, two stories high, but it covered a very large area, and the window glass on the first and second floors was the size of a bed on each side.
In the light, the windows also change color from time to time, sometimes transparent, sometimes red, sometimes white, and occasionally reflect a hideous, distorted face.
"Look at how welcoming they are to us."
"Where's the oil depot?"
"The northwest corner of the airport!"
The co-pilot glanced at the compass on the dashboard, then pointed to the pilot's left rear and said, "Over there." ”
"Sit tight." As the pilot spoke, his arm pulled slightly to the left, and the helicopter leaned to the left, and the course changed, and the debris piled up in the cabin also tilted to the left, if they were not all bound by ropes, this angle of inclination was enough for them to slide out of the cabin.
The searchlight shone in that direction, and sure enough, in front of the mountains to the west, there were several huge tanks, which should be oil storage tanks, and not far in front of these tanks, ten-ton tanker trucks were neatly parked. The pilot gently pushed the control stick forward, and the height of the helicopter dropped slightly, so that the earth was clearer in the eyes of these people.
"Does anyone drive a tanker?"
Wei Yilin didn't understand the pilot's meaning for a while, so he asked, "What's wrong?" ”
"You don't stop by a bunch of tankers to refuel, do you?"
"And where do you want to add?"
"At least two or three hundred meters away from them, otherwise if one of them blows up, the plane will be finished."
"It's not a big problem." Wei Yilin said to Xie Lingguang, "Old Xie, let's see if there are any infected dogs around here, I don't want to fight with them." ”
"Understood." Xie Lingguang put on an "OK" posture, raised his binoculars and searched every inch of the surface in a radius of 500 meters in the vicinity little by little, in case any fish slipped through the net. Next to him, the Heavy was also engrossed in watching the ground to warn of the cunning and fickle Infected, and suddenly burst out of the shadows.
"What if there's a large group of infected people in this terminal?" The man suddenly said, "I remember the last time I was here, these two terminals were full of people. ”
The co-pilot turned his head, revealing two rows of snow-white teeth, and at the same time his right hand, which was wearing a half-fingered glove, pointed slightly out of the cabin: "Then use that?" ”
The man stretched his head outward slightly, but he was startled, it turned out that there was a rocket launch nest hanging on the external weapon rack on the right side of the cabin! And this kind of weapon, as a rule, is a pair of them, that is, on the left side of the helicopter, there should also be an identical rocket launch nest! And this kind of rocket launch nest can be loaded with six rockets, two is twelve, if they are fired at the oil depot at the same time, it is guaranteed to be able to send this Changling International Airport to the sky!
"There is a situation!" Xie Lingguang suddenly gave a warning, and everyone's hearts also went up......
