Chapter 249 - Disappear without a trace
The rumbling explosions echoed between the peaks for nearly an hour, and after a continuous bombardment of eighteen 155 mm guns, the valley northeast of the county was not only covered with the severed limbs of living corpses and broken trees and rocks, but also the cits and craters that were still smoking everywhere in the valley, and the whole valley looked like the surface of a dark asteroid.
Zhou Zhiyuan, who is located on the roof of a building dozens of meters high in Sadian, is constantly searching for fish that have slipped through the net in the county, because the ethnic minorities who have been fierce by nature since ancient times have long been eager to rush out of the sheltered buildings with shotguns and knives and start attacking the living corpses locked indoors.
Zhou Zhiyuan said into the radio: "You have to send personnel to pick up the survivors in the county as soon as possible, they can't wait to do all the work for you first."
Xu Changshan replied: "They will not be willing to leave the land that their ancestors have guarded for generations, and we can only ensure their safety and advise them to gather the other tribes together, and we can't do anything else."
A few minutes later, three helicopters circled over the county seat, and used loudspeakers to announce that they should stay at home and not go out easily, just as a tall giant corpse jumped from the third floor, flattened a car, and then flew another, and after witnessing the strength of the xenomorph living corpse, the survivors ran back to their respective places of refuge, honestly waiting for news from the military.
Zhou Zhiyuan put an incendiary armor-piercing bullet into the chamber of the sniper rifle, and locked the middle point of the facial features of the giant corpse located on the chest through the high-powered optical scope on the gun, and after the "bump" sounded, the bullet left the barrel at a speed of more than 1,500 meters per second, and flew towards the direction of the giant corpse.
More than a dozen armored vehicles drove into the county one after another, ensuring that the target area could be covered by the heavy weapons on the car, and the heavily armed soldiers on the car got out of the car and entered the building to sweep up the living corpses.
Originally, some of the survivors were still very frightened when they saw the giant wolves appearing in groups, but when they saw that the soldiers in the city would actually greet these unusually large carnivorous animals, and some would come forward to touch their heads or scratch their necks as if they had met acquaintances, the giant wolf wagged his tail and glanced at the soldier before moving on, looking like brothers in the same unit.
Zhou Zhiyuan said into the radio: "The county seat has been recovered, I am going to go to the next location, do you have any good suggestions?"
Xu Changshan responded: "There is a large air base about 40 kilometers northeast of the county, we need you to help us go to explore first, it seems that there is no damage from the aerial map, but no one has cleaned up the weeds everywhere for a long time, and after the power is restored, they have not responded to our call, and the reason for the loss of contact is not clear."
Zhou Zhiyuan replied, "Oh? You send me the detailed coordinates and location, and I'll go over and see right away, aren't your people getting there first?"
Xu Changshan responded: "Some of the special combat team followed the naval fleet to the Nanyang Islands to search for and rescue the soldiers and civilians on those islands, and the other part stayed in the interior to observe the movements of the living corpses and look at the undersea tunnels.
Zhou Zhiyuan asked curiously: "It seems that there should be a lot of high-value weapons and equipment there, didn't you get the news in advance?"
Xu Changshan replied: "It was the pilot on the aircraft carrier who told us, otherwise we would not have known that there is an air base there, and according to him, at least dozens of new fighters are parked in it."
Zhou Zhiyuan entered the location information of the base sent by Xu Changshan on his military mobile phone, and then rode an all-terrain vehicle in the direction of the air base according to the guidance of the military navigation system.
After a two-hour cross-country journey over mountains and mountains, Zhou Zhiyuan saw the air base from a distance on the national highway and highway, and asked Luo Luo to take the giant wolf to disperse and search for four weeks, and then the ATV off-road vehicle took down two modified search and rescue drones from the rear shelf, set the route and flight distance, and then the two drones flew towards the two longest ends of the airport, and began to circle in a clockwise direction after arriving at the fixed point.
Zhou Zhiyuan looked at the drone screen on the tablet and frowned, as Xu Changshan said before, the buildings of the entire airport are very intact, and the fighters and transport planes on the runway and the apron are also parked very neatly, except for the overgrown weeds, the entire base does not look like anything abnormal, it can also be said that there are abnormalities everywhere, if there is no trace of turmoil, why is there no news of the people inside.
Zhou Zhiyuan asked at the wireless, "Have you received the picture of the drone?" This picture feels so weird, as if no one has come to this foundation field since it was built, and it has been here for half a year to let it grow grass."
This time, Zeng Weizhong responded solemnly: "According to my understanding, the airport used to be the largest air base in the south, and the bunkers at the east and west ends alone can park 48 heavy fighters, and the hangar near the mountain in the middle can also park 24 fighters and six transport planes, four air early warning planes, four air tankers, 12 service helicopters, etc., in addition to an air defense missile battalion, a guard battalion, and a special forces battalion stationed in the base, but all these people have lost their traces!"
Zhou Zhiyuan said suspiciously: "Even the fighter jet is left outside and let it rust in the wind and rain is the most strange, could it be a passage locked underground or some reason?" Since the infrared thermal imager on the drone didn't find any shadow of a living thing, I'm ready to swagger in through the gate of the base!"
After finishing speaking, the second hand waved forward, and the wolves split up and ran towards the east and west ends of the airport, they were going to investigate the machine fort camouflaged in the woods and the personnel living buildings in the area, Zhou Zhiyuan rode an all-terrain vehicle to the gate of the base located next to the national highway, and if you enter from there, you will pass through the non-combat buildings of the base, and you may be able to get some clues from the documents or information equipment inside.
