Chapter 105: Dongfeng Tianlong Car
Chen Ran asked him to take two people to the entrance of the service area to set up a guard before, but he didn't expect to encounter a situation.
Knowing that a car was coming, Chen Ran immediately asked on the walkie-talkie, "Is there only one?" ”
Zhang Zeshan replied: "Yes, there is only one." It seems that there are two people in the car, and they seem to have spotted us and want to come over. Shall we let them in? ”
"Let them in!" Chen Ran replied, and immediately took steps with Liu Jinlong and the others, rushing to the direction of the entrance of the service area.
But before they were halfway there, they had already seen a red Dongfeng Tianlong truck driving into the service area under the guidance of Zhang Zeshan and others at the entrance.
The two people in the car were men in their fifties and sixties, and the back of the car was pulling a cart of logs, which seemed to be running for transportation.
These two people were lucky that they didn't turn into zombies.
Otherwise, the space in the car is so cramped, as long as one of them becomes a zombie, the other one will probably not be able to hide.
However, for the sake of prudence, Chen Ran still did not let them get close to the convoy, but asked them to stop on the side of the road first to inquire about the situation.
But before Chen Ran could speak, the middle-aged man driving in the car had already spoken first, with a thick Huinan accent, and said anxiously: "My mother-in-law, sir, we have finally found you." Something big is wrong! On the way we came, many cars overturned, and the people inside were crazy. Pounce when you see someone, bite when you see someone, it's terrible! Are we fighting with the Blue Star Country? I can't get through by calling the police! Go and check it out! ”
Chen Ran thought to himself: "It seems that these two uncles don't know what zombies are. It is estimated that I usually watch less movies and go on the Internet. To be able to survive until now, it can only be said that they are lucky. Otherwise, if you don't know whether you are alive or dead to check the situation of those who have been transformed, it is easy to be tricked. ”
But Chen Ran didn't rush to explain the current situation to the two people, but asked first: "Two uncles, where do you come from?" Where are you going? ”
"Sir, we are pulling wood, from the west of the lake to the river to Wuhu in the south of Huinan. We've been on this route for years, but we've never encountered anything like this before! Why did you come here this time, and it became like this! ”
"I'm telling you, sir, those people are like crazy! We didn't avoid the car as we drove past, and deliberately hit our car. What kind of thing is this, if there is an accident, who is it! We had to reverse the car and park on a section of the road where there was no one waiting for the police to deal with it. But we couldn't get through on the phone, and we had been stuck on the road ahead for almost a week, and we couldn't wait for the police to come. The food and drink were gone, so I rushed over in the car. I'm telling you, it's none of our business to hit someone on the road, they have to bump into it themselves. The more the middle-aged driver talked, the more excited he became, and he was about to cry, although he tried to avoid it all the way, but at least he hit three or four "people", which is a big deal.
Seeing that the middle-aged driver was very excited, Chen Ran quickly pressed his hand to calm the driver down, and then said, "Master, master!" Calm down and listen to me. We all know these situations, it has nothing to do with you, don't worry, those are the living dead, called "zombies", in fact, they are all dead! ”
Subsequently, Chen Ran, Liu Jinlong and others briefly introduced the situation of the last days to the two old drivers.
Immediately, the two old drivers were shocked, and they exclaimed: "What! The whole world is like this, right? Is it the same in our hometown? ”
Chen Ran nodded. The two old drivers suddenly heard the bad news, and hurriedly took out their mobile phones to call home to ask about the situation.
In the past week, they have tried to call home more than once, but every time they can't get through.
Now in a panic, they are just rushing to the doctor.
Chen Ran shook his head and persuaded: "Two uncles, you don't have to call, the phone is long gone!" ”
"Ahh So what can I do? The two old drivers immediately asked anxiously.
And Chen Ran sighed and said, "No way." Now the whole world is like this. The rest of our convoy is like you, and they can't reach their families. We are now going north to take refuge in the north, do you want to go with us? ”
"You're going north? Did you pass through Wuhu? ”
Another driver couldn't help but ask after hearing Chen Ran's words.
Chen Ran nodded and replied, "We are indeed preparing to go over there. ”
He continued: "The highway from Tonghai City will pass through areas with a high density of zombies, which is very dangerous, so we are going to take the highway in Huinan Province. ”
"That's great, can we go to Wuhu with you? There is a good response on the way, and when we arrive in Wuhu, we go home by ourselves! ”
"You're going home?" Chen Ran asked.
The two drivers glanced at each other and nodded and replied: "Yes, the family is all here, my grandson is only two years old, how can I rest assured if I don't go back to see!" ”
Chen Ran nodded and did not continue to persuade. The convoy soon set off again, this time the size of the convoy became 48 people, of which 26 were men, 22 were women, one husky, and 12 cars.
Before leaving, Chen Ran, Liu Jinlong, and Zhang Zeshan discussed that the two armored vehicles would take turns to play the role of reconnaissance vehicles in front of the convoy and reconnoiter the road conditions ahead for the convoy.
The last time the convoy was blocked in the tunnel, and it couldn't be turned around, and the situation that it could only reverse out was really embarrassing, so Chen Ran always wanted to set up a reconnaissance vehicle in the convoy.
The two squad leaders also agreed with this.
Therefore, when the convoy set off this time, it started with Zhang Zeshan's 207 and set off as a reconnaissance vehicle.
Chen Ran's RV continued to be the head car of the main team, followed by Jinbei, communication car, Transit, field cooking car, sleeper bus, tool car, Mercedes-Benz truck, Dongfeng Tianlong pulling logs, fuel tank truck, and finally Liu Jinlong's 213.
The entire convoy continued to march north.
"Squad Leader Zhang, Squad Leader Zhang, can you hear me?" After the convoy set off, Chen Ran used the walkie-talkie to contact Zhang Zeshan.
"Roger, Captain. What's the matter? Zhang Zeshan immediately replied with a walkie-talkie.
"How's the road ahead?" Chen Ran asked.
"There were no particular problems and the team could pass! It was from the service area, about 1 km or so on the road with three cars rear-ended, the vehicle was stuck on the guardrail on the side of the road, and 6 zombies ran out! ”
"Understood!" Chen Ran reminded again at this time: "By the way, squad leader Zhang, don't drive your car too fast." Now there is no network to locate and there is no way to know how far away your vehicle is from us. ”
"The walkie-talkies used in our fleet are military though. But there are many high-speed uphill and tunnels. The effective signal reception distance is generally about 2.5 kilometers. So please contact us every 5 minutes. If you find that you can't communicate, it may be that you are running too fast and exceeding the communication distance, so you have to slow down and wait for us! Do you understand? ”
