Chapter 27: The Ominous Cloud

Hao Aiguo is eyeing a temporary military airfield in the south of Tongxian County that was built before the zombie transformation began. The purpose of the construction is unknown, but reconnaissance of the settlement of Lakeside Villas two months ago confirmed that there were some old military aircraft stationed there.

Although there are no dedicated maintenance personnel, logistical supplies, and suitable take-off and landing sites, it is useless to get a fighter jet to drive this. And no one knows how to drive it, but it's not just airplanes at the airport.

Maintaining a military aircraft requires a large amount of jet fuel, which can be used for heating in winter, generating electricity, or using it as car fuel. In addition, the ground staff at the airport must also be equipped with light weapons that can be used to enhance the firepower of the settlement. And the military communication equipment in the airport can also play a considerable role in the last days when satellite communication has failed.

As for daily necessities, there must be quite a lot of reserves in such a military facility that has been closed for a long time. In addition, a powerful tractor with a little modification is a post-apocalyptic artifact.

It is precisely because of this that Hao Aiguo has coveted this airport for a long time, but because he is afraid of the loss of the group in the airport, he has not been able to do it for a long time. In the face of zombies indoors, you can rely on the cover to slowly grind with a pistol and zombies, but in the face of a large number of zombies in an open area, it is not good to rely on it without being strong enough

And Gou Ke thought that he came here and fell in love with the commonly used mounted weapons on fighter jets. The Rover currently has enough defense, but not enough firepower, and the JS9 is good against soft targets at medium range, but very weak against armored targets. And even if there are no missiles in the airport. A rocket nest or an aviation cannon can also greatly make up for the current lack of firepower of the rover, but it really can't, and the hot decoy bomb mounted by the fighter can also be modified to burn zombies.

Therefore, half a month ago in the backyard, Hao Aiguo and Gou Cao hit it off and immediately decided to come here to raid it. After half a month of preparation, only four people including He Hehe and Su Cuifen were left to guard the Huxin Villa settlement. The remaining thirteen people, including Gou Ke, Bai Yutian, Chen Zichen and Hao Aiguo, began to meet early in the morning and formed a convoy to march towards the airport.

The convoy rover cleared the way, followed by three modified "Braves". The Rover Gou Ke serves as the driver and commander, with four survivors as the marksman. Bai Yutian, Chen Zichen and Hao Aiguo each serve as the commander and main shooter of their "brave", equipped with a driver and a co-shooter.

Each of the four commanders is armed with a Type 30 pistol and a JS9 submachine gun, while the rest of the crew are each armed with a Type 30 pistol and five Molotov cocktails, all of which are provided by Gou Cao.

In addition, all three Brave were armed with small flamethrowers made by the survivors of the settlement. Fueled by high-purity alcohol.

The front part of the four-war chariot has been strengthened for the impact function, and there are no large corpses on the road, except for the occasional stop to clear the roadblock, the road is basically smooth, and it is almost a good ride in the afternoon.

The airport is built on a high ground in the south of Tong County, which is rectangular in shape, one kilometer long from east to west, 200 meters wide from north to south, and only 600 meters long with a runway. In 2050, when most military aircraft have vertical take-off and landing capabilities, this airport is small enough.

The eastern entrance to the airport is blocked by a large number of abandoned vehicles and is inaccessible, but there is a road on the western side that passes near the airport and convoys are going to break through from there.

After leaving the road, the convoy made a great effort to carve out a road from the decimal forest between the road and the airport and reached the west side.

Soon, with Cortana's help, Gou Cao found a few weak points, and then commanded the rest of the team in the cockpit to blow up an entrance on the west side of the airport with directional explosives, but before the group who got off the train were happy, the scene in front of them suddenly made them nervous.

"Gah!" At first, the crow chirped by a crow startled by the sound of a blast reached the ears of the group, and then more crows flew into the air and began to circle, gathering like a dark cloud, and the quacks were connected together, which was terrifying.

"Corpse Crow, get in the car!" Hao Aiguo shouted, and the others reacted quickly back to their cars, tightly closing the doors and windows and the shooting window on the roof.

But by this time, the crows had already begun to pounce in the direction of the convoy, and one of the shooters rationed to the rover had just climbed onto the roof of the car before he could enter the car, and was knocked back to the ground by the crows. Although the three people who came up first were usually gentle, kind and happy to their hosts, they still cared about their own lives at the critical moment, and watched their companions being overwhelmed by the crows, and locked the roof hatch without hesitation.

"Bang bang bang!" Crows are constantly flying and crashing into them, then pecking with their beaks and scratching with their claws.

The people inside the car were silent, but there was a large number of crows flapping their wings, the tooth-sore sound of their claws cutting through the metal, the sound of raindrops pecking at the car, and the heart-rending screams of the shooters besieged by the crows outside.

Even the rover's body began to shake due to the impact of a large number of crows, as if it was about to overturn at any moment. Several cameras mounted on the front and rear of the car, left and right roofs can now only see a cloud of black that is obscuring the sun.

Listening to these terrible sounds, accompanied by the unsettling shaking of the rover, one of the female shooters in the car quickly broke down and began to cry, and the two shooters next to him had to step forward to comfort them.

"This is a rover, the body is not damaged, and one person has been killed. For other vehicles, please report casualties and damage to the vehicle. Ignoring his gentlemanly demeanor to the crying female occupant, he grabbed the walkie-talkie and contacted the people in the other vehicles.

"The window of the Brave One was damaged, one person was slightly injured, and the damaged parts have been repaired. Complete. Hao Aiguo responded.

"Brave 2 is intact and there are no casualties. Complete. Bai Yutian responded.

"Brave III is intact, one person is killed. Complete. Chen Zichen responded.

"As soon as you come up, you will be killed, two injured, and one will be injured, let alone loot resources if you are besieged like this, whether you can get out alive is a question!" Chen Zichen's slightly worried voice came from the walkie-talkie.

No one agreed.

——————————————

When someone asks me, I'll tell you that the cartoon that Gou Cao watched when he was a child mentioned in yesterday's chapter is actually made up. The cremation cannon is the product of my brain, and it was originally intended to be the main weapon of the rover.

But when Xing Chongchong told this idea to a certain science and engineering bully, he told me that the energy emitted by the expansion of air compression is dispersed very quickly, the range is clumsy, and adding flour cannot save it. So I had to give up.
