ACT190: Preparation

Of the people present, very few had experience at sea, and even someone like Jimbo, who had been floating on the sea for several years, was actually still confused about all aspects of sailing. When I stepped into the waterway from the land, I relied on the help of a group of soldiers under the command of Shao Shan, and the kayak only needed strength, and when I rowed out of the harbor, I met Xinpuyang, which was a huge cruise ship with a complete operation team, so naturally they didn't need to worry about it. Later, the same was true for the boat that helped them escape from death, Wang Zhongyu's soldiers and brothers took care of the pilot, and Jimbo only had to continue to be his shopkeeper.

Once Jimbo had an interest in learning to drive, after all, he had to live at sea, and at that time he was always thinking about returning to land, but later due to practical problems, Jimbo had to give up the idea of learning. The dinghy they owned at that time was only for emergency use, and before rushing to the desert island, the dinghy was already full of holes, and more importantly, the desert island was short of resources, and it was difficult to solve the problem of food and clothing, so what about fuel resources? The story of Jinbo's island exploration will be talked about later, in short, a thousand ways and ten thousand, the current highlight of this team is undoubtedly in the hands of Cao Zheng and Dai Wei, since they happily said that everything is ready, everyone will naturally have no objections.

Cao Zheng's excitement was hit, but after thinking about it, he understood that few of Song Jiu's group had ever been on a boat, and they didn't know much about the difference between boats. Sampans and warships are clear at a glance, but yachts and catamarans ...... I really didn't think it made any difference.

Cao Zheng laughed dryly, threw the hinge in his hand back to the carriage, and explained simply: "This thing is big, one ship can wrap our people around, and there is no need to bother to find other ships." In addition, this ship is a two-stroke gasoline engine, we still have a lot of gasoline reserves, and there are a few barrels of engine oil in the storage warehouse.

Speaking of which, the sluggishness on the faces of Song Jiu and the others finally disappeared, and was replaced by the long-awaited joy of Cao Zheng.

According to the original assumption, Song Jiu didn't dare to consider a ship with a large number of people at all. On the one hand, the limited fuel reserves are on the one hand, and on the other hand, this kind of coastal city is too convenient to escape to the sea, and the people who live here have no reason to abandon the sea boat. The assault boat they used to swim out of the sea was still found in the trading port, and the boat was very mobile, but unfortunately it couldn't carry a few people, and the motor was damaged, so they could only rely on manpower to row the oars, which was time-consuming and laborious. When Cao Zheng and the others proposed to change the route, Song Jiu's biggest concern was that he would not be able to find a ship to use to go to sea.

Wu Wentao also questioned this, he has been to Bohai Bay, and has seen huge engineering ships stranded in the port, there are many of these large-tonnage guys, but they are not capable of driving. The whole team is not enough for the turbine crew to be allocated, not to mention the fuel for heavy ships is difficult to solve. At present, the types of ships that they can control with manpower and material resources are limited, and it has been three years since the catastrophe, no matter in the early and late stages, boats, which have risen to the level of strategic equipment, must have been looted long ago, do they want to weave bamboo rafts by themselves?

Cao Zheng and Dai Wei looked very confident, and swore that as long as enough fuel was saved, the boat would definitely be fine, and everyone didn't need to worry about it. The situation at that time did not allow them to think too much, and after thinking about it, since the two dared to make a decision, they must not be untargeted, and they should gamble.

As it turned out, they were right.

"So what are you waiting for? Let's go? Song Jiu is also excited, there is a feeling of running smoothly recently, the more it comes to the time to travel, the more worried about the changes in everyone's hearts, if the conditions permit, Song Jiu intends not to make any stay, directly leave this land of suffering.

Dai Wei scratched his head with a wry smile and said regretfully: "I still need some preparation, so I ......"

Song Jiu's anger was immediately extinguished, and he wondered, "What else do you need?" ”

"The lifting equipment, the yacht is in the cargo hold, and it always has to be moved to the water." Cao Zheng snapped his fingers, thought about it, and said: "I also have to find some emergency facilities, lifeboat swimming rings are all necessary, but these things should be easy to find." ”

Wu Wentao looked around, beckoned other people who were quite lively to get in the car first, and interrupted the discussion between the two in a loud voice: "Find a place to stay first, standing on the road is too conspicuous." By the way, have you found any traces of the walking dead? ”

"Yes, but not much." Dai Wei took out the newly found city tourist map from his trouser pocket, drew a few circles in the neighborhood near the port with a pen, and said: "I don't know why, it seems that the walking corpses in the city are concentrated here, and we haven't entered the port, there should be a lot of them over there, which is also one of the problems, if the port of shipment can't get in, we have to find a way to get into the water from other locations." ”

Wu Wentao nodded, he was very satisfied with the intelligence work of the two, thinking about it, they are professional expedition leaders, and the work they need to do to explore the road must be more perfect than that of Song Jiu, who is a halfway monk, and what should be paid attention to will not be missed, which provides great convenience for the operation of the large army.

The information exchange came to an end for the time being, and the groups of people returned to the vehicle, and drove to the temporary foothold under the leadership of Cao Zheng, the car in front.

Song Jiu took over the driving, Luo Yu went to the back seat to take a nap, and Yang Xiaomeng was still tinkering with his outfits.

"How about a few bikinis before we go to sea, how about we have a beach party?" Yang Xiaomeng didn't know what to be happy about, so she took off a disc from the visor, and shook it to the music.

"Whatever you want, just don't delay the trip." For Yang Xiaomeng's seemingly meaningless actions, Song Jiu is actually not disgusted, as long as it does not affect the overall action, eating, drinking and having fun are within the allowable range. Survival and life are two different things, if there are conditions, find some fun and add color to the boring itinerary, this is Mengfan's favorite thing to do, imperceptibly, Song Jiu also gladly accepts.

Luo Yu, who was resting in the back seat, also smiled when he heard this, and remembered the scene a few days ago, before they captured the riverbank fortress, Mengfan was wearing a bikini and basking on the roof of the car. If Mengfan is still there, you can imagine what kind of beautiful food they will see when they land on the island.

Yang Xiaomeng's words woke up Song Jiu, and he almost forgot that in addition to the troublesome things that disturbed the people of the antibody establishment, there was also an island wedding waiting to be organized.

"Xiaomeng, I'll give you a task." Song Jiu took a cigar and was addicted, squinted and thought about it, and said, "When you get to the resting place later, you and Gu Li will go out and find a way to find something that can be used at the wedding." ”

"Wedding?" Yang Xiaomeng was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "You two are getting married?" "The two of you are naturally referring to Song Jiu and Luo Yu.

Song Jiu shook his head with a smile and said, "Ziqian and Doudou." ”

"You two can also go together, and you can do it together in a good time." Yang Xiaomeng is also a big mouth, what to say, and he didn't see Luo Yu's somewhat embarrassed face in the back seat.

"Rip the red line." Luo Yu scolded with a smile, quietly changed the topic, and asked, "I'll go with them, what do you need?" Wedding dress? ”

"You look at it, make it bigger, that kid has a beautiful woman, let's put a flower on the cake for him."

……

Twenty minutes later, the convoy arrived at a temporary location, a ship parts factory.

Originally, Cao Zheng chose a small shipyard, where the road is relatively spacious and can be close to the water, and there is a civil access channel inside the shipyard, but the geographical location is relatively remote, and the team has to search for all the things needed in the city, and it is not convenient to go back and forth, so he changed to a factory near the city center.

The accessories factory is not big, the main façade is two shops, directly selling finished accessories, responsible for packaging and transportation, the back of the plant is not production, mainly the recycling of bad parts is concentrated, there is not much imagination of large machinery and equipment, aside from the machine parts piled up in the yard, much like the seafood barbecue stalls seen along the way.

The two stores were badly damaged, the doors and windows were shattered, the interior was in shambles, old blood stains were everywhere, and the rotting corpses almost merged with the weeds. Everyone has long been accustomed to this kind of scene, and the vehicles rushed into the compound to stop, and simply packed up a place to rest, and the long-distance team could finally rest for a while.

Wu Wentao meticulously arranged the sentry, led a few people to close the small door leading to the backyard of the store, and locked the iron door of the backyard to avoid all hidden dangers; The young men consciously picked up hay and stones, built the stove with a good car, helped the chef light the fire, and sat around waiting for the meal. Judging from the standards of the fugitive team, the living conditions of Song Jiu's team are not bad, they rarely eat and sleep in the open, the food reserves are enough to fill their stomachs, there are chefs and doctors with them, and the whole team rarely worries about trivial matters in life.

Cooking, standing, and the rest of the people get together, waiting for the corresponding tasks to be assigned, these days the team has a tacit understanding, everyone has their own place in the team, and there will be no more the situation of eating and waiting to watch the show.

Cao Zheng and Fang Fei were studying the nautical charts on the side, Jin Bo and the others had landed in Zhoushan before, and now they were cold and changed their routes, and the land was okay, but there were not so many references on the sea. Cao Zheng and they have experience in going to sea, but before the previous activities, there was a special person in charge of the route, and they considered more matters on the way. Fang Fei's charts are very accurate, compared with the travel charts found at the tourism bureau, there is basically no error, from their current location, if there are no accidents on the way, they can reach the island of Jimbo in two days at most.

"Boy, how long did it take you to row from the island to land?" Cao Zheng secretly said, although there are many small islands in the sea area of Zhoushan, but Jinbo's base is far away, and Jinbo's island is not even marked on the travel chart, how did those people swim ashore?
