Chapter 21: Bucket Hedgehog Armor
When Shen Ling and Shen Ling set off from Yicheng before, they bought two 15-liter barrels of mineral water, and then poured the water clean and used the buckets to fill gasoline.
Before setting off from the county seat to Guangming Township, Shen Ling had already led people to drain a bucket of oil with a simple water pump and add it to the car.
Another barrel of oil was put back at home.
The drained barrel was not thrown away and was still in the trunk.
Now, in the face of new demands, it's time for this bucket to come into play.
The bucket was broken in the middle and split in two.
The crowd then used butyl tape to glue half of the bucket firmly to a piece of cardboard.
The strength of the bond is very high.
There are eight small holes on the left and right sides of the barrel, and four small holes in the front and back directions.
None of these holes are too big, just enough for the people inside to stick out weapons such as screwdrivers, utility knives, scissors, fruit knives, etc.
The purpose of using weapons is not to kill the animals that come to make a nuisance, but only to drive them away, which can only achieve this effect, but it is sufficient.
Although animals are not as intelligent as humans, they also know how to pursue advantages and avoid disadvantages, and if they are not hungry to the extreme, they will not die in theory.
Injuries and illnesses are often fatal to animals.
It took nearly an hour, and the two mineral water bucket armored vehicles jointly designed by Zhou You and Shen Ling's father and daughter, and the others used up all the available resources to make on the spot.
Unfortunately, the conditions are still limited, and it is not possible to install the wheels and power system of this armored vehicle.
At the moment it is advancing in a human way.
The principle is similar to that of a traveling plastic bottle armor, but it can accommodate multiple people to move.
A total of twelve square holes with sides of three centimeters were cut in the cardboard at the bottom.
The holes are arranged in two rows, six in each row, on the left and right.
On each hole, there is also a slightly longer shoelace tied to the front and back sides of the hole.
By squatting through the hole, pressing the shoelaces on their shoulders, and then standing up at the same time, they can lift the bucket armored car off the ground at a height of about waist-high, that is, about five centimeters.
Each person can also adjust the length of the laces to find the optimal force height.
After lifting the car, everyone steps forward at the same time, and the armored car can move forward.
In the event of an emergency, the commander only needs to shout "squat", and everyone squats down at the same time, and the armored vehicle can fall to the ground and become a protective fortress on the spot.
If there is an enemy attack, the occupants of the car can immediately grab the weapon at hand and hand it out through the hole next to them, causing damage.
In this way, the armored vehicle can be considered to have switched to the bucket hedgehog combat form.
Yin Xiuwen and his entourage had a total of twenty-four people, and the two armored vehicles were just enough to accommodate all of them, which was tailor-made for them.
After more than ten minutes of preparation, the armored car was thrown to the ground.
Yin Xiuwen and another skilled worker then threw their phones to the ground, jumped down, and then picked them up and stuffed them into the last hole that had opened from the bottom of the bottle just enough for them to plug in.
Next, everyone got through the mouth of the half of the bucket's armor, and then erected the semicircular iron door made of iron wire and fixed it with iron wire.
The people who entered the bottle were busy for a while, arranging their weapons at the edge of the holes and holding them slightly in place with scotch tape.
Then Yin Xiuwen stood up the phone horizontally, leaned against the center of the bottom of the bottle, and turned on the flash of the phone.
The light shines through the bottom of the bucket and illuminates the way forward.
Yin Xiuwen shouted, "Get up!" ”
The tacit understanding gained from working side by side on the construction site for many years is vividly reflected at this moment.
It's not that difficult, and they've done it countless times when they've been carrying prefabricated slabs together on the construction site.
Everyone in the same car exerts force at the same time, and on average, each person only needs to carry less than 100 grams of mass, which is very easy.
The bucket armor with a total mass of about 1 kg was smoothly lifted off the ground.
Yin Xiuwen shouted again, "Go!" ”
The bucket armored car began to move slowly forward.
On the off-road vehicle side, the drone that had previously been replaced with a fully charged backup battery was lifted into the air.
Zhou You still uses a rope to hang himself under the drone.
In order to maximize the field of view and shooting range, and better serve as an air guard, this tour did not use plastic bottle armor, but chose an unprotected all-attack form.
The high-pressure gas tank was carried on his back, and he held a gas needle nail gun in his right hand, and two rectangular boxes hung from his waist on the left side.
One box contains pre-rolled toilet paper balls, and the other box is full of sewing needles.
This is basically the strongest firepower in Zhou You's hands at the moment.
His task was to be on alert.
The off-road vehicle is the rear combat command center.
Shen Ling is still in charge of controlling the drone.
Zhou Lingsheng used his mobile phone to open a video call meeting.
Mr. Yin and another worker with a cell phone were also in the video conference room.
In the dark, the drone maintained a height of five meters above the ground and moved slowly.
Ten meters behind the drone are two bucket armored vehicles that are staggering forward at a speed of 0.5 kilometers per hour.
Before shrinking, the normal walking speed of a person was about 5 kilometers per hour.
Nowadays, human beings are now 1/20 the height of their original height, and it stands to reason that the walking speed should be reduced to about 0.25 kilometers per hour.
However, because the relative movement ability of human beings has increased a lot, the actual decline rate is not so large, up to 0.5 kilometers per hour.
Taking stride length as an example, in the past, the distance that humans could walk in one step was about 0.37 times that of their height, but now this data can reach more than 0.6 times, similar to walking in large strides, but not feeling tired.
When running, the stride length increases even more.
Yin Xiuwen and his party are construction workers who are good at hard work, and under the deliberate speed, even if they are carrying bucket armor, the walking speed is the same as the walking speed of ordinary people today.
Everything is working out in an orderly manner.
Although the roads are clogged with abandoned vehicles, the bucket armored car is extremely small and can always find a hole to get through.
If all goes well, this team will arrive at the Guangming Township Police Station in more than two hours.
However, only ten minutes passed, and an unexpected incident occurred.
The black, white and gray three wild cats suddenly burst out from under the ridge on the side of the road, climbed the roadbed and headed straight for the bucket armored car.
Zhou You didn't hear any movement here, but Shen Ling on the command center found these three shadows for the first time using the drone's camera with a night vision wide-angle lens.
She immediately shouted, "Be careful! There are cats! Three! ”
Shen Ling's warning sounded through the video conference room and at the same time in the mobile phone speakers inside the two bucket armored vehicles.
In addition, Shen Ling also frantically pressed the control button on the mobile phone screen, so that the drone marker light flashed continuously.
Over there, when I first heard this reminder, the people in the armored car were still a little flustered.
At this time, Yin Xiuwen, the trusted foreman of the small package, showed qualified psychological quality and decisive ability, and immediately shouted, "Everyone! Get down! ”
Hearing this, the other people in the two armored vehicles crouched down almost instinctively.
Only two crisp sounds were heard, and the cardboard under the armored car hit the ground on the dirt road.
However, the danger has not been completely lifted.
Among them, one of the largest black cats still maintained a lightning-fast sprint speed, and came straight to the bucket armored car that Yin Xiuwen was in.
At this moment, the tour in the sky had just had time to twist his body under the warning of the flashing marker light.
The drone has already begun to fly back at full speed.
There was a thud.
The black cat hit Yin Xiuwen's bucket armored car head-on.
The people in the car only felt a shock and a chill.
Fortunately, the armored car was not knocked over.
The black cat also jumped up under this collision and fell more than two meters away, but quickly turned around and looked back, just like a tiger turning back.
Under the faint light, the black cat's two cat's eyes reflected like light bulbs with a dangerous light.
In such a scene, Yin Xiuwen actually lost his mind for a while, only to feel that his mouth was dry, and he even forgot to shout.
"Take up arms!" Zhou Lingsheng, who was a bystander in the command center, shouted and reminded for the first time, "Car No. 2 is careful of the side!" Two more came too! ”
