Chapter 177 (1/2)
”Check your seat belts. Get ready to take off.” Close the cockpit door, Chunan said casually, sitting in the driver's seat.
”Don't worry. I checked it.” Wearing a mechanical exoskeleton, Jiang Chen knocked the position of his shoulder and laughed at him.
”This is the process, so, let's go.” With that, Chunan turned on the engine switch, and then motioned to the ”Apprentice” sitting in the co pilot's seat to help him pay attention to the dial on the right side.
Whoo!
Outside the engine room came the buzz of high-voltage current. With the help of violent vortex flow, yunzhi-51 began to rise slowly.
Sitting opposite Jiangchen is the gunner. The young man in orange protective suit looks a little shy when he sees the leader of the base sitting opposite him.
”Don't be nervous.” Jiang Chen said with a smile.
”Yes Cried the young man, trying to stand up and salute, but he was pulled back by the seat belt in a funny way.
Ha ha, with a smile, Jiang Chen waved his hand, indicating that he didn't need to be polite. Instead, he looked out of the window.
The snow stopped, but the snow did not melt.
This is the first time he has seen the whole city of Wanghai from the sky.
In the world of silver and jade, the whole city is shining in the morning light. The dazzling brilliance seemed to disperse the haze of the dust in the air.
If not for the scattered zombies on the street, and the unhealthy color of the dust haze, he would even forget that he was at the end of the world, not a snow city in the north.
”From this point of view, the city is quite beautiful.” Looking out of the window, Jiang Chen said casually.
”The first time I saw it was really shocking. If you fly every day, you'll get used to it. ” Chu Nan teased the way.
”Is it?” Jiang Chen smiles. He said without a word.
The ground forces have set out first.
Five tigers, one Assault Infantry vehicle with supplies. Thirty light infantry with Ripper rifles and two snipers with ghost sniper rifles.
The destination is Shenxiang town. This will be the first battle of the fish bone base in the face of mutants.
It was ok if Jiang Chen didn't come. However, considering that more than 700 prisoners were to be recruited, it would be better for the leader of the fish bone base to come forward and say something.
Moreover, looking down on the battlefield from the top down, he still has some expectations.
”Coming into contact with radioactive dust, put on a mask.” With that, Chunan pulled down the mask of his flying helmet.
”Yes.”
Jiang Chen pressed on the exoskeleton a few times, then took the helmet from the chair on the side and inserted the connector into the slot of the collar.
It's snowing. However, this degree of cold is as insignificant as a spring breeze to the mutant.
Even if they were naked, they could still stand in the freezing cold, ignoring the violent wind and snow, and venting their firepower with their rifles.
They are born warriors, boast of supremacy, and terminators of old civilization.
However, even though they were not afraid of the cold, the winter expedition was still a very difficult task for them.
The stronger the body, the greater the consumption of materials. To the west of Zhufeng highway, it was covered with snow. It is extremely difficult to pass vehicles, which undoubtedly adds a heavy burden to the already long supply line.
There are only two choices for mutants.
1、 An advance team was sent to set up an outpost in Shenxiang town on the other side of the Taipu River, and then large troops were sent to Wanghai city.
Two. Wait for the next spring to march into Wanghai city.
There is no possibility of reconciliation between mutants. Once encountered, it will be a decisive battle. As for the conflict between marching into Wanghai city and local human forces. The leadership of mutants is still cautious. Unlike those scattered survivors in Jiashi, it was a hot spot in wartime. Wanghai city is home to many survivors who inherited the black technology in the field of military industry before the war.
If it is necessary to have a conflict with those human forces, mutants prefer to have conflicts in winter.
If we wait until the spring of next year. The superiority of the mutant in the cold environment will not be reflected. At the same time, the hungry aliens who wake up from hibernation will also make the trip to the city center more difficult.
Due to the above factors, the mutant chose scheme one for the time being.
Although the road from No.7 to Shenxiang town was blocked by heavy snow, the road condition from Shenxiang town to Wanghai city is still good. As long as an outpost is set up to store materials in Shenxiang Town, the pressure on the supply line will be greatly relieved, and the winter expedition will be possible.
As a result, the prisoners in Shenxiang town were not immediately taken back, but forced to work and build fortifications by the mutants who occupied the town.
Outside the town of Shenxiang, the outline of the wall made of steel and cement has been seen for the first time.
The roadside is full of wood debris, which were once displayed as obstacles and shelters on the main and secondary roads outside the town. However, when the mutants arrived, these vulnerable obstacles failed to give the survivors crouching behind the bunkers the slightest sense of security.
The monster in steel is carrying a machine gun, and the rampant bullet storm destroys the psychological defense line of every defender.Not far from here is a low bungalow, whose decorated concrete walls have been cut off by recoilless guns. The walls were covered with ferocious bullet marks, and the blood on the wooden floor of the house was still visible.
The survivors who stayed behind the bunker failed to cause even one casualty to the strong attack mutant. When the first mutant crossed the wooden bunker, the survivors had left dozens of bodies on the ground and had to surrender with a white flag.
The body of the recalcitrant is carried up with a wooden spear and suspended in the snow, eroded by the wind and snow, and bitten by mutant mice. Like a flag, it declares the dictatorship and cruelty of the winner.
Wang Ping coldly watched the frail human beings walking on the snow with concrete blocks and steel bars, adding bricks and tiles to their outposts.
