#179 - Chapter 179 Airdrop Flyers
The next day.
The sky was cloudy.
The time of dawn continued to be delayed a little.
Today's temperature dropped again, reaching minus seven or eight degrees!
The Lvyuan Base was already awake in the early morning. It had digested the impact of the corpse fog weather yesterday, and was about to start a new day's work today.
At the same time, since the base officially established various departments yesterday, everyone was clear about their responsibilities.
Today, the combat department had a new task.
In the base's dedicated apron area, several helicopters had been moved to the waiting area, and many personnel were busy counting the items on the helicopters.
The base now had 4 small, 2 medium, and the only one armed helicopter.
One of the small models that was pulled back from the helicopter training ground with not too severe damage was successfully re-flown after several days of repairs by Xia Yan and the Sun brothers.
Now, except for the armed helicopter, the other 6 were pulled out.
They needed to perform long-distance aerial missions today.
Zhong Yu stood next to one of the medium-sized helicopters and said to his team members beside him:
"Fix the leaflets. Don't let them be blown around by the wind when you fly. We're about to set off! How many round trips and how many places are we going to fly to today!"
"Roger that! Captain!"
His team members expressed their understanding.
The combat department had already held a collective meeting last night and knew what they were going to do today.
Other teams were also checking the items they needed to carry before departure next to several other helicopters.
People from all five teams of the combat department could fly helicopters. Several people were assigned to the one driven by Xia Yan, forming a total of six teams to set off.
As for what to do?
You'll know soon.
Qin Jin also stood aside. Seeing that everyone was ready, he stepped forward and said to all the outgoing team members:
"There are many locations that need to be dropped off today, so everyone will have to work hard to make a few more trips. Everyone should do as we said yesterday. If there are any problems, come back immediately."
"Let's start!"
A chorus of agreement came from the opposite side.
Soon.
Several helicopters took off in sequence and flew towards different directions!
Qin Jin watched the departing team members for a while, then turned around and said to Qin's father, Wang Yang, and others who were still there:
"They should be back soon after dropping them off. Our base needs to prepare the things to hand over to them for continued deployment!"
"In addition, after this plan is implemented, everyone should start preparing to deal with the survivors who will come one after another in the future!"
After explaining, Qin Jin left and let everyone go back to their work.
*****
Fenghe County.
Near a township road only tens of kilometers away from the Lvyuan Base.
There was a house with a yard here.
It was the residence of Li Ge and A Zhen's group.
Although the corpse fog weather the day before yesterday had caused them some fright, it did not cause any actual losses.
If there were any, the most would be that the two cars parked in the yard had been scratched again by zombies.
At this time, in the room on the second floor, several people were talking.
"Shenglin, we only have a few days' worth of food left. If we don't find that walled place, we're really going to run out of food!"
One of the older middle-aged men said to Li Ge solemnly.
"Don't worry, we are very close to that place. If nothing unexpected happens, we can reach it in a day or two!"
Li Shenglin said optimistically to his companions.
"But we have never been successful... From Shenzhen to now, all kinds of problems have occurred along the way... I seriously doubt whether that place still exists..."
The middle-aged man said worriedly.
This group of them was really too unlucky.
Along the way, either the means of transportation was damaged, or they encountered natural disasters.
Last time, they were almost killed by the strengthened zombies on the road again.
This time, they changed to small cars, hoping it would be a little smoother.
It was also their fault for not having the experience to deal with the end of the world. They stumbled all the way, and it was a different kind of good fortune to be alive until now.
Other companions heard Li Shenglin and the middle-aged man's conversation, and interjected a few words. After everyone complained a little, they shut up and packed their luggage to prepare to set off again.
Hopefully, they can find that walled place today.
Just at this moment.
The rumbling sound came from the distant sky again!
They recognized it. It was the sound of a helicopter!
This was the third time.
From hearing the sound of the helicopter that day after the acid rain, they heard it again later. (The combat team drove the helicopter out to find equipment that time)
Everyone's enthusiasm was not as high as before when they heard the sound now.
Only Brother Li and A Zhen and two or three others still rushed to the roof.
As soon as they reached the roof, several people shouted at the top of their lungs:
"Help! There are people here!"
The helicopter flew closer to the top of their heads from a distance in just a moment.
Looking at its speed, it didn't intend to stay.
Sure enough, the helicopter flew over their heads and went straight away.
Just as Brother Li and others showed disappointment again, A Zhen suddenly called out:
"Wait, what are you looking at in the sky!?"
The others looked up when they heard the words, and saw a few things falling from the sky.
"Is that paper!? The helicopter dropped it!?"
The situation was obvious.
One of the pieces of paper fell closer to them than the others, just falling on top of their heads!
Brother Li was quick-eyed and quick-handed, and jumped up and grabbed the paper that fell from the top of his head!
"What is this?"
The others all curiously gathered around to watch.
This was a piece of paper about the size of A4 paper.
No.
It was more appropriate to call this thing a leaflet!
They slowly read the information on the leaflet, their eyes widening more and more!
Until they finished reading the information on the front and turned the paper over to see the map on the back.
They raised their heads and looked at the others in disbelief.
"Go tell the others quickly!"
Brother Li said excitedly, holding the paper, and at the same time began to run downstairs.
He wanted to share this amazing news with other partners!
Lvyuan Base!
*****
Time goes back a few minutes.
The helicopter flying over Brother Li and the others was carrying three members of Zhang Tiankai's team.
They were driving a small helicopter. In addition to the driver, Zhang Tiankai and another team member were sitting in the back seat.
They were responsible for some places near the Guangyuan City base.
Just when they flew near Brother Li and the others, they saw a few people jumping and looking at them on this building.
Zhang Tiankai shouted loudly at the team member driving the helicopter in front:
"Fly in that direction, I'll throw a few down!"
The team member heard the words, controlled the helicopter to slow down a little bit, and Zhang Tiankai in the back seat took out a few "things" he brought out from the cabin and released them in the slightly opened hatch gap.
"Keep going!"
After finishing, they continued to fly forward.
This was just a small episode in their morning deployment mission. They had to rush to the next town to continue to complete the leaflet deployment.
