Chapter 339: 32 cars
Early the next morning, Chen Ran and his convoy set off again.
But at this time, the number of vehicles in their fleet has increased further, to as many as 32.
They are 1 MAN heavy RV, 6 armored infantry vehicles, 1 armored road opening vehicle, 1 armored communication vehicle, 1 transit RV, 1 medical ambulance, 1 fire storage truck, 2 field cooking vehicles, 1 fire ladder truck, 1 bus modified tool vehicle, 1 fuel tank truck, 1 experimental special truck, 1 blacksmith and weapons special truck, 5 sleeper buses, and 8 freight vehicles (2 special transport cattle, sheep and horses, 2 transport various canned food, 3 transport other food and daily necessities, There is also 1 truck to transport logs).
In fact, in addition to the 8 trucks transporting materials, Chen Ran's other vehicles in his team will also help transport some materials as long as there is space.
On the one hand, it is possible to increase the overall carrying capacity of the fleet.
On the other hand, it can also prevent some vehicles from being separated from the convoy and not having the necessary supplies.
Therefore, Chen Ran's convoy is still relatively rich in reserves of various materials.
In terms of personnel, after more than 20 days of continuous rushing and rescue, the total number of their convoy has now risen to 273 people.
Among them, those over the age of 16 accounted for the majority, with a total of 260 people. There were 13 under the age of 16.
In terms of the work arrangement and job distribution of the personnel, there are still a relatively large number of combatants in the convoy, with 138 people, accounting for more than half of the convoy's personnel over the age of 16.
In addition, there are 43 personnel who joined the team relatively late, and their physical fitness is relatively good, but the level of reinforcement is relatively limited, so they are temporarily organized as combat reserve members and are undergoing various training.
The rest are all classified as logistics.
Including 36 people in the maintenance class, 15 people in the cooking class, 6 people in the material management and exchange group, 8 people in the medical group, 10 people in the transportation group, 3 people in the comprehensive service group, 4 people in the communication group, and the drivers and teachers of each vehicle.
In fact, Chen Ran's task of transporting materials for their convoy is still very heavy. Because Chen Ran, they harvest a lot of materials every time.
The reason why the transportation team of the convoy is only 10 people is established.
In fact, it is because these 10 people are mainly responsible for the daily material management, transportation and distribution of the fleet.
When it was time to carry the materials collected by Chen Ran and them, all the other logistics and combat personnel in the convoy also had to help carry them.
And the driver of the convoy is the same.
Therefore, although Chen Ran and the drivers of their team have a post establishment, they do not have a specific number.
Some of the team members are both transport team members and vehicle drivers. Some are people in the back of the kitchen, but they are also drivers.
In terms of weapons, Chen Ran's convoy currently has a large number of assault rifles and pistols, as well as some sniper rifles, light and heavy machine guns, and individual rocket artillery.
In the other special operations team, there are also 6 shotguns. This weapon is very effective in killing zombies at close range.
Hundreds of thousands of bullets of all kinds.
The combat effectiveness of the team can be said to have begun to take shape!
It is such a large convoy that is currently slowly moving out of the Talai service area in Magen.
Next, they are about to get off the highway from the high-speed toll booth not far in front of them and enter the national highway on the grassland.
What you face will be a new environment and unpredictable dangers.
Among them, including Chen Ran in the previous life, they did not go through this road.
Therefore, everyone couldn't help but tighten one of their strings.
Soon after, they came to the end of the highway and exited the highway at a toll booth at the very end of the highway.
At this time, Chen Ran, sitting in his RV, was staring intently at the LCD TV screen in the RV.
This TV has been connected to several high-definition cameras on the armored open road vehicle, and you can also see the footage captured by these high-definition cameras.
So even if Chen Ran is sitting in his RV, he can see the same picture as the people in the armored road car.
At this time, looking at the situation on TV, Chen Ran picked up the walkie-talkie and talked to the driver of the armored road opener: "The person in car No. 1, please pay attention." On the map, there should be a small petrol station not far in front of the highway exit. On your right-hand side. ”
Chen Ran continued: "You pay attention to observe and see if there are any tanker trucks parked there, and if there are any, even report it." ”
It is also more dangerous due to the complexity of the situation below the highway.
Also, this is a steppe with few tunnels.
Therefore, after getting off the highway, Chen Ran did not continue to send reconnaissance vehicles to conduct road reconnaissance in front of the convoy.
Anyway, even if something happens, there is only one way here, and they can't avoid it.
It is also necessary to rely on the armored road opener to rush in front.
So now, Chen Ran's convoy has become an armored road opener in front.
Moreover, the high-definition camera on the armored open road vehicle can still support 60x zoom, so it can also see farther, and it is quite suitable to play the role of a reconnaissance vehicle.
At this time, the personnel on the armored car driving the road, after hearing Chen Ran's words, immediately replied: "Car No. 1 received!" ”
And then, he immediately reported: "Captain, we have seen that gas station on the screen!" You can also switch the TV from your car to the camera in the rear-mirror on the right side of our car. Let's start focusing now. ”
"Roger!" Chen Ran quickly replied.
And then he adjusted the TV screen on his side to the corresponding camera screen.
On the screen, sure enough, the image of the gas station not far away immediately appeared.
At the same time, the person sitting in the passenger seat of the armored open road vehicle has also begun to operate the zoom of the camera to continuously zoom in on the picture.
In this way, the situation in the gas station in front of you can be seen more clearly.
It's just that after watching it for a while, Chen Ran couldn't help but pick up the walkie-talkie with some disappointment, and said to the person on the armored road opener in front of him: "I don't seem to see a tanker truck in this gas station, have you found it?" ”
In fact, this gas station is so big in total, and there is no fence, the situation is basically clear at a glance.
Chen Ran didn't see a tanker truck in the gas station, that is, there was none.
As a result, the people in the armored road opener in front of them also quickly replied: "Captain, we didn't see it either." ”
At the same time, the people on the armored road opener couldn't help asking: "Captain, are we going to stop?" ”
