**********************
There are two railways from Nenjiang County to Chuncheng, but they are not convenient.
One is relatively short, through Qiha City, Daqing and Xinha City, you can go directly to the Spring Market.
But as early as May last year, Chen Yuan had already received news that people in Xinha City had set up barricades on the railway to prevent trains from passing. Said to prevent zombies from breaking through from the railway!
In this regard, Chen Yuan really wanted to greet the female elders of the Xinha City Lord's family.
Nima, defend yourself with a hammer! What a excuse! The road below is so wide, there is no way to go, can the zombie prisoners run to the railway? This is clearly a stumbling block for the Steel Keep!
But now in this world, there is no country for a long time. Whoever occupies the territory belongs to whomever it is, and people don't want you to pass over from his territory, and you can't help it. The most important thing is that his strength is not as good as others, so Chen Yuan had to endure it.
So this one doesn't work, and Chen Yuan is extremely distrustful of the people in Xinha City, and he doesn't want to ask them to remove the barricades and let them go from this side. In case you come back, he will stop you again, and even the train will be detained! This kind of thing, with their shamelessness, is very likely to be done.
The other one is farther away if you want to take a detour.
First go to Baicheng and then go south to Tong City, bypass Siping to the north, and then go to Spring Market. That's a bit far.
What's more, this road has not been traveled before, and the train used to repair the railway all the way, which may take a lot of time. And when they arrived at the place, Chen Yuan and they wanted to enter the industrial park, but the train stopped on the railway, but it was not easy to hide. In case they are found by zombies and come to fight, or are found by local survivor forces and want to rob, then do they fight or run? So it's inconvenient.
But fortunately, there is still a highway to go from Nenjiang County to Chunshi.
And there are several, and the distance is about 600 kilometers, which is quite convenient. And it's easier to hide cars on the road, not as many as the railway.
So this time, Chen Yuan and the others chose to take the highway when they went to Spring City.
Starting from Nenjiang County, first pass through Qiha City, then Daqing, then go south through Song City, and finally go to Spring City. With a total of 632 kilometers and the time it takes to remove roadblocks on the road, it is expected to arrive in a day and a half.
There were not many vehicles accompanying them, including an armoured road car, an RV, a communications vehicle, a field cooking vehicle, 4 armored personnel carriers, 4 sleeper buses, a water storage truck, and a fuel tanker. A total of 14 vehicles.
As for the vehicles that transported the equipment at that time?
Just kidding, they went to the automobile production industrial park, okay! Still afraid you won't be able to find a transport truck?
In terms of personnel, the main ones dispatched this time were half-corpse scouts.
The Military Intelligence Department of the Self-Salvation Army currently has a total of 427 half-corpse scouts, excluding those who are on duty and a small number who remain behind, a total of 183 half-corpse scouts have been dispatched for this operation. If you add in the 12 half-corpse scouts sent earlier, that's 195.
There are also some non-semi-corpses, mainly 26 technical experts, including Wu Chaogui, 5 cooks, 3 medical personnel, 3 communicators, and 28 guards and drivers.
There are also 8 people with abilities such as Chen Yuan, Zhang Fatzi, Zhang Zhen, Qin Mengyao, Xiao Tengcan, Zhou Dan, Xu Kai, and Wei Chen.
A total of 256 people.
Wei Chen and Xu Kai's abilities can only ensure that they will not be discovered by zombies, but they have no way to bring people. However, Wei Chen's ability was very useful to them, and because more than half of Xu Kai's dispatch this time were members of the Military Intelligence Agency, both of them were also in the action team.
Zhou Dan was the soldier who obtained the spirit meat of the wind mutant zombies when the zombies from Nenjiang County came to attack the city last summer. Now he is a member of the special combat team, with the rank of major.
Because the wind ability can help mask the aura of ordinary people, he also participated in this operation.
The ice and water spirit flesh obtained in Zhangbei County was later given to Dong Zhi, the head of the Sixth Regiment, and Liu Weitao, the head of the Seventh Regiment, but because the time for both of them to obtain the ability was too short, they did not participate in this operation.
***********
Starting from the Steel Castle, the road to Daqing has already been opened, so the road is very smooth.
After a journey of more than 300 kilometers, they set off at 9 a.m. and arrived at 12 noon.
Chen Yuan and the others casually found a high-speed service area to rest, and did not enter Du Mei's oil city. This mission was important to them, and Chen Yuan didn't want to reveal their whereabouts too much.
At 1 o'clock in the afternoon, Chen Yuan and the others continued to set off. The real trouble is the next three hundred kilometers.
Although the scouts who had set out earlier had cleared it first, in order to be in a hurry, they only cleared a road that was enough for their own armored vehicles to pass through.
Therefore, Chen Yuan and their convoy want to go over, and they still have to dredge it again. But it's much easier than building a railway.
At four o'clock in the afternoon, they passed through Matsushi. They stopped just before dark outside a high-speed service area near Erlong Mountain.
Xu Kai reported to Chen Yuan: "Fort Chief, there are zombies in the service area. The quantity is unknown. This service area looks quite large, should we change places for the night? ”
Xu Kai suggested this, not because he felt that they couldn't beat the zombies in this service area. It's about not wanting to make senseless sacrifices. And now they are out on a mission, and if they can, they will try not to cause trouble.
However, Chen Yuan said happily: "No need to change, no need to change!" That's it! It just so happens that we can borrow the zombies here to experiment again, can we successfully bring so many people in. ”
Zhang Fat Man was lazy and asked suspiciously: "Didn't you try it all when you were at home?" Zombies can't find it! ”
"That's different!" Chen Yuan said: "Those live zombies in the medical research institute have been arrested for so long, and after so many medical experiments, their activity may have been reduced a long time ago. And at that time, many conditions could not be realistic. Now it's just the right place. This service area is not small, and there will definitely be corpse control. To test whether we would be found by the accused under normal circumstances. ”
Wu Chaogui nodded fiercely: "I agree." There are no more zombies here, no less, just enough for us to experiment. ”
Qin Mengyao also nodded gently: "I also think we should try it again, it's safer." ”
Chen Yuan said to Zhang Fatzi: "If you see it, you are the laziest, get out of the car and prepare!" ”
"Good, good!" The fat man yawned lazily and lifted his ass from the comfort of the sofa.
At the same time, the others had also gotten out of the car and prepared for it at short notice.
The few zombies wandering slowly on the road had already been shot by the members of the half-corpse reconnaissance team, and they didn't make a single movement.
Those who were preparing to move were all standing next to the convoy in accordance with the pre-rehearsed formation, ready to set off.
