From the cement factory, I pulled two and a half truckloads of cement back to the highway service station. Chen Ran only knew. Liu Jinlong and his side found a bus from the town government and drove it back, and also got back a large amount of office equipment and supplies.

At this time, both buses have also begun to be refitted.

In this way, the number of vehicles in their fleet has increased from 35 to 4 at once, to 39!

And Wu Chaogui and Wei Chen also found a lot of maintenance tools and auto parts in that car repair shop, which can be said to have gained a lot.

But to say that the happiest people today are, of course, those survivors who have just joined Chen Ran's team.

An ordinary lunch in the convoy was almost enough to make them cry with excitement and joy.

Many people were in tears as they finished this delicious lunch.

After all, most of them have never had such a delicious meal since the end times.

Even if these meals were relatively simple because of the rush at noon, they could only be regarded as average in Chen Ran's team.

But for them, they are already very rare and delicious.

And the performance of these people also made the survivors who joined Chen Ran's team earlier, sigh and feel happy.

Lunch ended, but the convoy still had about half an hour to rest.

The members of the maintenance squad seized the time and continued to reinforce the shells of the new vehicles.

Of course, due to the limited time at noon, they could not harden all of these vehicles as strong as the rest of the convoy.

You can only reinforce some key parts, such as the front of the vehicle, and the windows in some places.

They're already very skilled at this, so if they rush it, they can still complete it.

At this time, Chen Ran brought Wei Chen, Xu Kai and Zhu Changshun over to discuss the route of the convoy in the afternoon.

"Let's take a look!"

At this time, in the RV, Chen Ran was pointing to the map on the TV screen and said to everyone: "Our current location is here, in Xingyu Town." After passing the town of Xingyu, about 6 kilometers to the north, there is a highway here. In the afternoon, I want to continue north along National Highway 412, then take this G27 highway, walk back for a while, and then take Provincial Highway 126 to continue north. ”

The G27 expressway that Chen Ran refers to is a highway in Mengzhou that runs from northwest to southeast.

Therefore, if Chen Ran and they got on this highway and wanted to go northeast, they would have to go southeast first.

At this time, Wei Chen couldn't help but ask suspiciously: "But captain, this 126 Provincial Highway, he doesn't seem to lead to the northeast, and he will eventually return to National Highway 412." ”

Chen Ran nodded and said, "Indeed, we still have to go back to National Highway 412 in the end." It's just that we have to bypass this section of National Highway 412! ”

At this time, Chen Ran moved the map on the screen down, and continued to explain at the same time: "Look, if we keep walking north along National Highway 412, about 110 kilometers, we will come to this place called Xilin Zuoqi." ”

"This is a small city in Mengzhou, plus the surrounding villages and towns, there are a lot of people! National Highway 412 runs through the eastern part of the city, with a distance of nearly seven or eight kilometers, and there are residential areas on both sides of the road! ”

In fact, at this time, there is no need for Chen Ran to explain, everyone has already seen the situation of this Xilin Left Banner from the map, and they can't help but take a breath of surprise in surprise.

Wei Chen said: "For such a long distance, there are many zombies!" It's much more difficult to pass than Helan Palace! ”

"yes!" Chen Ran also continued: "That's why we have to take a detour!" ”

"Look here." Chen Ran then pointed to the east side of Xilin's Left Banner and said, "This is the intersection of National Highway 412 and Provincial Highway 126. Although it happens to be in the east of Xilin Zuoqi, if we take National Highway 412, we will divert to G27 Expressway, and then turn back to National Highway 412 from Provincial Highway 126. Although it will be nearly 120 kilometers longer than going straight to National Highway 412, we can avoid this large section of residential area in front of Xilin Zuoqi. Finally, from here, you can return to National Highway 412 and only need to go through about 2 kilometers of residential areas. ”

After hearing this, everyone couldn't help but nod, and finally understood Chen Ran's intentions.

Walking like this, although it does take a little detour, it can't completely bypass the Xilin Left Banner.

But as long as you can bypass a large section of residential areas in front, this detour will not be in vain, and the convoy will be much safer.

Two kilometers away, there is not even the mayor of Helan Palace.

So at about one o'clock in the afternoon of this day, Chen Ran and their convoy set off again.

However, at this time, the internal renovation of the two new buses is also continuing. The maintenance team had to walk along, so they sat in the car and modified the interior of the vehicle.

In this way, at night, the two buses can also be occupied.

"Brother Zhu, the convoy turns right at the intersection in front of you and onto the G27 highway."

Not long after the convoy passed Xingyu Town, Chen Ran used his mobile phone to issue a diversion order to the convoy.

"Understood!"

Zhu Changshun immediately replied.

Then the armored opener took the lead and turned right onto the G27 motorway.

Back on the highway, the convoy traveled a lot smoother.

In contrast, the road conditions on the highway are indeed relatively good.

And there are also very few vehicle wrecks and zombies here, Chen Ran They drove all the way to the southeast on the highway, and they walked nearly 20 kilometers before they encountered two accident cars on the road, and there were few zombies, only 5.

Holding the idea that no matter how small the mosquito's legs are, they are also meat, Chen Ran immediately ordered: "Zhang Zeshan, you 207 move, leave the convoy, go and deal with the zombies in the two cars in front of you, and take back the spirit sac!" ”

No way, they've been very poor these two days! Within the boundaries of Mengzhou, the population is either highly concentrated or pitifully small. There's no way to get a spirit sac.

So today's Chen Ran and them are afraid that there are too many zombies, and they think that there are too few zombies.

At this time, Wei Chen couldn't help but complain in the team's communication channel: "Captain, this is all on the highway, why are there still so few zombies?" The day before yesterday, 32 spirit sacs were harvested, and yesterday it was 21. Today, only 9 have been received so far. This day is not as good as a day, and if we continue like this, our little spirit bag inventory will be gone. Gotta figure it out! ”
