Chapter 887 United Fleet
Under the horrified gazes of the members of Tang Wen's convoy, on the horizon behind the convoy, a convoy consisting of 7 heavy engineering vehicles was pushing forward like a mountain!
The bucket of the large bulldozer in the front is welded with sharp steel bars, followed by the edge of the roller of the road roller, which is inlaid with densely packed jagged steel sheets. It's like a doomsday meat grinder!
In the center of the convoy was a modified giant dump truck with a compartment nearly two meters above the ground. Inside the compartment were a large amount of fuel, food, and purified water.
The drivers of the fleet all wore dust masks, and their work clothes with "Wuling Road and Bridge" printed on the back were worn to a shine.
Zizzi~~
"Chief Engineer, I think I see a section of speed reduction ahead... No... It's a convoy, Chief Engineer, I see a convoy ahead!"
A gray-haired old man was sitting on the passenger seat of the giant dump truck, with a crumpled map covered with marks and symbols of different colors spread out on his knees.
After hearing the report on the intercom, chief engineer and team commander Yang Shuren raised his head and looked forward in a brisk tone.
"It looks like we're really close. We encountered a convoy. They should be heading to the military safe zone!"
"Yes, Mr. Yang, it seems that the other survivors have the same idea as us." The driver next to him agreed, tapping the brakes lightly.
Hearing this, Chief Engineer Yang Shuren nodded slightly, took out the intercom stuck in his jacket pocket and replied:
"Everyone, pay attention. I am Yang Shuren. Listen to my orders now. The convoy must slow down and pull over. Stop the car but do not turn off the engine. Leave enough distance to counterattack with the convoy in front!"
The most untested thing in the end times is human nature. In this regard, Yang Shuren was also afraid of being tricked, so he was very cautious about the upcoming contact.
"received!"
li~~
As the sound of air brakes sounded, the monsters in the Wulong Road and Bridge Motorcade slowed down and stopped by the side of the road one by one, nearly a hundred meters away from Tang Wen's motorcade. Seeing this scene, Tang Wen and others who were on high alert in the front also subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.
Although he holds the truth in his hands, with this caliber and firepower, he may not be able to deal with the team of engineering monsters in front of him. He will most likely only be able to make them drool.
Fortunately, the other party did not come any closer, otherwise Tang Wen would really have to suspect that he was being set up by some robbery organization.
Even though we are now very close to the military safe zone, we cannot let our guard down for a moment until we actually enter.
Who knows if there will be a sixth brother blocking the main road to the safe zone to harvest? Anyone who has played the drug-running game will definitely know this.
After all, the beasts in the game are only part of reality...
"Continue to remain alert, but put away your weapons first to avoid any misunderstanding." Tang Wen saw the other party's friendly attitude, so he ordered the weapons to be put away first to avoid the risk of misjudgment as much as possible.
The post-apocalyptic world is different from the pre-apocalyptic world. The era when two strangers could just start a chat just because they wanted to borrow a light is completely gone.
The risk of contacting strangers in the apocalypse is very high. If you are not careful, you may lose your life. Considering that it is easy to dodge a spear but difficult to guard against an arrow from the dark, many people are more vigilant towards other human survivors than towards ordinary zombies and mutant beasts.
Therefore, before the two gangs came into contact on the avenue, they used a series of methods such as using loudspeakers to shout at each other from a distance and taking off clothes to show their naked bodies to eliminate each other's concerns. Finally, after both sides confirmed that it was safe, Tang Wen and Yang Shuren walked towards each other under the vigilant gaze of their respective teammates.
"Hello, I'm Tang Wen, the captain of the 36-person team." As the two men approached, the younger Tang Wen took the lead and extended his right hand with a smile.
"Captain Tang, nice to meet you! I'm the person in charge of the Wulong Luqiao Shelter, and my name is Yang Shuren." Yang Shuren also had a smile on his face, and his words were very amiable.
Shelter?
I don’t know about other places, but in Yucheng, the names of the survivors’ forces are generally regular and usually represent their scale.
Groups of survivors like his, who mainly wander around, are usually named XX Team.
Those safe zones that are established on the spot are called gathering places if they are large, and shelters if they are small.
"So the group of people in front of us shouldn't be very large..."
While Tang Wen was thinking this in his heart, he said with a surprised look on his face:
"Oh? Wulong Road and Bridge? Are you all employees of Wulong Road and Bridge?"
Wulong Road and Bridge was a state-owned enterprise in Wulong District, Chongqing before the end of the world. Although it had some reputation, it was not known to everyone. Tang Wen only had some impression of it and gave it a casual compliment.
Facing Tang Wen's question, Yang Shuren nodded and admitted directly: "Yes, we were still on the construction site when the apocalypse broke out. In order to survive better, we continued to retain the company's organizational form."
"I see. I've heard of Wulong Luqiao's reputation long before the end of the world. I didn't expect to meet him now. He is indeed very powerful!"
Tang Wen was not lying when he said this. It was indeed quite remarkable that an ordinary company could retain its organizational form in the end times.
What made Tang Wen even more envious was the other party's monster-like large-scale engineering machinery. Compared with the other party, the cars in his fleet were like the difference between a yacht and a giant ship, right?
As for that ridiculously large steamroller, aren’t the zombies just free paving materials?
Sure enough, whether before or after the end of the world, the Hundred Ton King is the equalizer for all living beings!
"Hahaha~ Thank you for the compliment. It's all for survival!"
The simple greetings were just to get closer. If we went any deeper, it would be a bit presumptuous, so Yang Shuren changed the subject and got to the main topic of the conversation:
"May I ask if you are here to look for the army?"
When he heard the other party mention the word "army", for some reason, Tang Wen suddenly felt that the uneasiness in his heart since they had met until now had instantly dissipated a lot.
The military... a word that makes people feel safe just by mentioning it...
Coming back to his senses, Tang Wen couldn't help but sneered with a wry smile:
"The wandering life in this end times is simply not a life for human beings. Compared to trusting in luck, I prefer to trust the army."
"You are bringing these brothers with you to find the army, right?" Tang Wen looked at the majestic engineering team behind Yang Shuren.
Hearing this, Yang Shuren sighed:
"Of course, after all, which child doesn't want to be protected by his parents? We all come from engineering backgrounds, and construction is fine. We were forced to do this kind of fighting in order to survive. Now that we have this opportunity, we still hope to return to our old business!"
"I just don't know the origin of this army, which unit it belongs to, and how strong it is. Does Captain Tang have any information about this?"
In the last days, information was blocked, and Yang Shuren was just trying his best to make the most of it. The other party was a wandering caravan, so they should be better informed than himself who was hiding in a corner.
Hearing this, Tang Wen couldn't help but let out a bitter smile: "To be honest, I don't know either. We only followed here after we heard the sound of the cannon."
"But judging from the intensity of the artillery fire, their strength should be strong, and this is not just a small fight."
"Oh, okay, thank you Captain Tang for telling me!"
Hearing this, Yang Shuren also lost interest in continuing to chat with the other party. Looking at the gradually darkening sky, Yang Shuren made a suggestion:
"Captain Tang, I think it's getting late. Since we have the same goal, why don't we travel together?"
Facing Yang Shuren's invitation, Tang Wen readily agreed:
"Of course, this way the safety factor is also higher!"
