Chapter 514 The armed helicopter battalion is dispatched!

"Colonel Liu, please remember this!"

After he finished speaking, Lu Chong pointed to the map beside him and heavily tapped on Gujian Mountain, located in the northwest of Zhanjiang District.

"Immediately mobilize an attack helicopter battalion from the front line to kill this disgusting thing first!"

After a few days of adaptation, Lu Chong has basically become familiar with the combat mode of the airborne assault brigade.

In fact, compared with ground forces, the troop management is similar, including the macro-level strategic thinking. After all, the air assault brigade is also a branch of the army.

The difference lies in the specific tactics and methods, but often at this level, it is the officers and soldiers at the battalion level and below who are actually operating, which has little to do with the brigade commander Lu Chong. If he really wants to interfere in the details, it will become micro-management.

As everyone knows, there is no soil for micromanipulation generals to survive in Yezhou Military Region!

So

Lu Chong is now slowly understanding the happiness of his leader Gu Chengyuan. He only needs to draw a circle on the map, and leave the rest to the systematic command system and grassroots combat troops to execute!

"Yes!"

"Report to the brigade commander, there is one more thing I need to report to you. The military district headquarters just sent a message that the military attaché in Chongqing, Major Gu Chengyun, will pass through our Zhouchuan Airport, and we have been ordered to send armed helicopters to escort him!"

"Gu Chengyun, the military attaché stationed in Chongqing?"

Isn’t this the chief’s younger brother?

Stationed in Chongqing?

Hearing this, Lu Chong couldn't help but think secretly in his heart.

The name Gu Chengyun might be too low-ranking to be known to the battalion-level cadres, but to core officers like Lu Chong and Zhu Jun, it was a household name.

After all, this is the chief's blood relative. How can he make progress if he can't even remember this? How can he be a leader if he has a bad memory?

"Then let's arrange an armed reconnaissance helicopter squadron!" After weighing the pros and cons, Lu Chong immediately issued an escort order.

In fact, two armed reconnaissance helicopters should be enough, but the military attaché in Chongqing represents the face of his own military region, so the bigger the better!

It’s the same when people get along with each other. If you want others to pay attention to you, you must first show that you pay attention to them. If you don’t pay attention to yourself, how can you expect others to pay attention to you?

If it weren't for the need for the war on the front line, Lu Chong would have wanted to send an armed reconnaissance helicopter battalion directly over!

For the leader’s younger brother, no matter how strong the cards are, it’s never too much!

Upon hearing this, the staff officer showed a shocked expression, wondering if he had not made the key information clear, causing his brigade commander to misunderstand him.

"One squadron? Brigade Commander, isn't that too many? According to the news, there is only one transport helicopter squadron going to Yucheng this time..."

"I know that even if there is only one helicopter this time, this squadron must have more escort armed reconnaissance helicopters, not less!"

"But.."

"Don't say buts, just do as I say. There are some things you don't understand, so I can't explain them to you. You have to figure it out on your own, understand?"

After saying that, Lu Chong continued to order:

"This escort squadron will be drawn from the helicopter gunship battalion that fights against mutant fungi!"

"Fungi don't have legs anyway, so they can't run away. Losing a squadron of armed helicopters won't matter. At most, we can just make a few more trips back and forth and slowly destroy it!"

"We don't have much of anything right now, except for ammunition and aviation fuel!"

Lu Chong spoke in a firm tone, and his eyes unconsciously drifted towards the direction of the airport below as he spoke.

At the airport entrance, a long convoy of transport vehicles, as big as train cars, arrived!

Thanks to the unremitting efforts of the Road Administration Bureau of the Survivors Management Committee over the past few months, the transportation route from the Night Market to Chongyi City has been fully opened. A convoy of fully loaded military transport vehicles can complete the journey in less than 4 hours, greatly enhancing the efficiency of material supply!

Strong logistical capabilities are the reason why Lu Chong dared to say this!

"Yes!"

Hearing this, Staff Officer Liu nodded as if he understood. Those who could serve as staff officers in the agency were not fools. The reason he didn't understand it just now was because of the information gap. If he still couldn't understand it now, it was because of his poor intelligence.

"Fuck, I've been so busy lately! How come this military attaché in Chongqing has the same last name as the chief? Just one character different???"

Staff Officer Liu suddenly realized something. The moment he realized this, it was as if the darkness in his head was shattered by thunder!

Great! Really great! No wonder you can be the brigade commander while I can only be a staff officer!

Thinking of this, Staff Officer Liu couldn't help but steal a glance at Lu Chong with admiration before leaving, and from then on he decided to learn from his leader!

Soon after Staff Officer Liu left, Lu Chong's order was quickly conveyed, and the tower control center immediately coordinated to gather a battalion of Z-10 armed attack helicopters that had completed a bombing mission and was returning.

...

Buzz buzz~~~

About an hour later, a formation of 16 Z-10 attack helicopters began to take off one after another after refueling and replenishing ammunition, and flew towards Gujianshan in Zhanjiang District according to the mission instructions.

Gujian Mountain is located in the northwest of Zhanjiang District, less than 180 kilometers away from Zhouchuan Airport. It takes almost 40 minutes to arrive at the airport at the cruising speed of an armed helicopter.

zizi

"Report to the battalion commander, our helicopter formation has found the target!"

The pilot of the leading Z-10 attack helicopter saw at a glance the red embedded in the dark green mountains and the white mutant toadstool standing tall on the vermilion temple!

When you look at it up close, it is far more magnificent than in videos or pictures!

The mutated toadstool, which is more than ten meters high, looks like a giant transparent jellyfish floating in the air. The diameter of the opened cap is probably more than 20 meters. The entire cap is made of translucent white substance, and it waves evenly like breathing.

What is obviously different from the picture is that now the pilot can directly see the intricate mycelial veins inside it, which are like the devil's blood vessels, and seem to be emitting a cold light.

It takes two or three people to wrap the thick umbrella handle. It looks very tough, as if it were made of white jade, and is so clean that there is not even a stain.

The nozzle on the top of the umbrella that caused all the trouble in Zhanjiang District was still spewing out wisps of spores. These spores seemed to be floating in the air and drifted towards Zhanjiang District in the southeast. Reflecting in the sunlight, they looked like silver threads.

Tsk tsk~

Seeing such a dreamy scene before his eyes, the battalion commander of the Airborne Assault Brigade couldn't help but admire it inwardly.

If I hadn't thought about the fact that this thing in front of me had directly caused millions of zombie and human casualties in Zhanjiang District, I would probably have thought I had entered a fairy tale world!

The key point is that this mutated toadstool chose a good place. It could grow anywhere else but in the temple. If it were in a prosperous era, this scene would probably have become a Buddhist holy land, right?

Unfortunately, the sin of killing has been committed and it cannot become a good omen, so it can only be eliminated!

Speaking of which, Buddha is useless in the end times. Our hometown has been occupied by this mutated fungus, so don’t blame us for our ruthless artillery!

Thinking of this, the battalion commander of the airborne assault brigade directly issued the combat order!

"All formations in the entire battalion, use echelon attack tactics to eliminate the mission target in front of you!"

"Yes!"

"Yes!"

..

As soon as the words fell, a total of 16 Z-10 armed attack helicopters were directly divided into two attack echelons. With the pilot pulling the joystick, the fleet quickly roared towards the giant mutant toadstool in front of them!
