#61 - Chapter 61 Camping for the Night
The sun was setting in the west.
It was 3:30 PM.
Inside the training ground.
The combat team had preliminarily completed the search and inventory of supplies and reported to Qin Jin.
There were many equipment and tools related to the helicopter, estimated to fill three trucks and heavy trucks to take away.
Then there were other useful supplies, such as a lot of food in the cafeteria here, as well as computers, electronic products, paper documents (aircraft information, learning materials) in the building, etc., which must be taken away, and it was also expected to require a heavy truck.
After removing a heavy truck used to carry the large helicopter, there was only 1 heavy truck left from this trip.
And the aviation fuel explored here just now was about 150 tons!
This training base usually has a lot of customers training every day, and the daily consumption is not small, so it is normal to have this amount of aviation fuel.
According to the volume of ordinary oil drums, one can is about 200 kilograms, and these 150 tons are more than 750 barrels!
But in this way, the remaining heavy truck cannot be loaded.
Later, everyone offered suggestions together.
They brought a lot of empty oil drums, plus there are some here, they can be filled and the fuel drums can be tied to some gaps in the semi-trailer that tied the helicopter, it is expected to be able to stuff 300 barrels.
The remaining heavy truck can hold nearly a hundred barrels, and there are more than 350 barrels that need to be dealt with.
Finally, after everyone discussed, they decided to go out and find tanker trucks or heavy trucks, otherwise, they would not be able to meet the requirements.
Anyway, this place belongs to Yangcheng, and it is not difficult to find tanker trucks or heavy trucks.
And Qin Jin also adjusted the plan, and did not plan to go back first tomorrow.
Prepare to use this training base as a temporary base, and tomorrow let Xia Yan drive the helicopter to find the remaining targets!
Flying directly is much faster!
Just circle around the target, if the target is there, then you can go down to check directly, it is best to fly directly, drive it back, if it is broken, there is no way but to give up.
During the report just now, Zhang Tiankai also brought good news, Sun Xiaolong and Sun Xiaohu brothers who joined his team, actually had experience in driving helicopters before!
I don't know which unit they were in before.
Qin Jin called them over on the spot and directly asked the two in person.
The reply was that the previous team saw that their physical fitness was exceptionally good, so they were arranged to do pilot tests, and the tests had basically met the standards, and they could even be cultivated as reserve fighter pilots!
They also participated in a period of aircraft driving training, of course, including helicopters, which are simple several dimensions compared to fighter jets.
It's just that later, I don't know why, the two brothers were not selected.
They were not even allowed to continue training on the plane, and returned to the original company, and retired not long after.
For this, the two brothers also had regrets.
Yesterday night, at the meeting, they saw the boss put forward the goal of finding a helicopter, but did not ask everyone if they could drive it, so the two of them did not speak.
This afternoon, they were chatting during the task of counting the items in the team, and the captain of their team, Zhang Tiankai, heard the news, and immediately reported it to President Qin.
Qin Jin almost slapped his thigh after knowing it.
He didn't think of asking his team members for a while, thinking that everyone had not been exposed to helicopters, but he didn't expect that there were such talents among the new recruits!
After confirming with the two brothers, they used to drive armed helicopters, and they have not driven these civilian models, but they said that they should be able to get started quickly with a little time to familiarize themselves.
Qin Jin was very happy.
He didn't expect that the two people he rescued unintentionally were actually the pilots he dreamed of.
If he knew, he would have hugged these two tightly!
When solving Zhao Qiang before, he almost let these two go, if that were the case, his thighs would have been broken.
With these two talents, if he really finds an armed helicopter in the future, he will immediately have suitable drivers!
God bless me.
Afternoon.
Inside an office building in the training ground.
He called all the captains and began to tell everyone the prepared plan and discussed how to allocate the tasks.
Some people went to deal with the loading of supplies, some people went to deal with aviation fuel, and some people went to arrange the defense here tonight.
Since we are preparing to spend the night here tonight, the defense must be strengthened.
Otherwise, relying on the 2-meter-high fence, it can't defend against too many zombies, and more preparations must be made.
The captains quickly discussed with Qin Jin and went to contact their team members to get busy.
Xia Yan was left here to continue to rest, and tomorrow he will need to drive the helicopter to take Qin Jin and the Sun brothers to check other targets.
After the task was clear, everyone was very motivated.
After the end of the world, it was the first time they spent the night outside the Luyuan base, and the sense of security was greatly reduced, and strengthening the defense was the right way.
There are still two or three hours before dark, and we must act as soon as possible.
Qin Jin stayed in the reception room on the third floor of the office building. He had been here before and was familiar with it. They chose this building as their base camp tonight.
Because of the flight area, the buildings here cannot be built too high, basically only about 3 floors.
After the doors and windows on the first floor of this building are locked and sealed, and then the stairs are sealed, basically the zombies will not be able to come up.
There are also two floor-to-ceiling windows on the edge of this conference room, which used to be convenient for customers to view the flight field and environment. Now it is just right, and it can let them observe the outside situation at night.
The busy time passed quickly.
It was five or six o'clock in the evening.
When the sun was approaching the mountain, the combat team had done all the defenses that could be done.
Including checking and locking the fence of the training ground, all the cars that came were locked and parked downstairs, except for the fuel that was not easy to handle, some other materials that were easier to carry had been loaded and covered with rain tarpaulins.
The weapons, ammunition, food, etc. carried were moved to the conference room of this office building.
At 6:30 in the evening.
The sky was completely dark, and except for the chirping of insects and the occasional breeze, no figures could be seen outside.
After the power outage, there is only some light outside when the moon comes out, otherwise it is almost dark.
The night watch is divided into five shifts, and each team is responsible for two and a half hours.
The first to guard the night is Zhong Yu's team. Their members are divided into two groups, occupying the high points of the two buildings in the training ground. There are also members in the conference room to respond and patrol the vehicles and supplies at any time.
Each night watch member is equipped with a pair of night vision goggles, which allows the members to roughly see the outside situation in the dark.
Qin Jin usually prepared a lot of this kind of thing, and the combat team also found some when they went out to collect supplies some time ago.
The inventory is large, and the people guarding the night in the Luyuan base usually use it to observe on the sentry tower.
At this time, most of the people came to the conference room.
The table in the middle has been removed at some point, and a large pot has been set up, and the firewood found from nowhere is burning crackling.
There are already a lot of food tumbling in the pot, and you can vaguely see a lot of meat and vegetables.
The fragrance spread out, arousing the appetite of the people who had been busy all day, and soon a spoonful of soup was poured into the instant noodles they were holding under the distribution of personnel, and a lot of meat and vegetables were added.
These are all things brought out from the base. The meat is frozen meat. There is a small car refrigerator for travel. The vegetables are some melons and fruits that are easy to store before. Green leafy vegetables have not been planted on a large scale, and it is not convenient for them to bring them out, so there are none for the time being.
Even so, it is commendable.
At least everyone ate with a slurping sound, and the happiness on their faces was hard to hide. There is no harm without comparison. They have seen how miserable the people outside have been recently.
Xia Yan, who just joined today, also got food, of course. He held the hot soup noodles, and the meat and vegetables piled on it, and the glutton in his body couldn't hold back for a long time.
He urged him to eat as soon as possible with all his strength.
He was not polite, eating big mouthfuls, the feeling of his stomach being filled with warmth, he missed it so much.
God knows how he survived this period of time, if the belt was not genuine leather, he would have been too hungry to eat it.
Fortunately, he was finally rescued today, and joined this force by the way.
He is not allowed to disagree.
From the way President Qin looked at him, and the enthusiasm of the captain who greeted him, he knew what the other party liked about him.
Isn't it his professional skills.
For this reason, he didn't feel any disgust in his heart.
It's good to be able to avoid starving to death. He has a general understanding of the outside situation. If he goes out alone, he may not live long.
Joining these people may be the best choice at the moment.
He will have to go out on a mission tomorrow.
He was originally hungry and weak, but after eating and resting today, he has improved a lot. I believe that after another sleep, he will basically recover.
There is no problem in driving the helicopter out.
Qin Jin ate together, and occasionally chatted with the team members.
When he was on a mission in the earliest days, he had dealt with many of them.
At this time, the atmosphere was harmonious, but most of the time he asked and others answered, and only a few captains would communicate with him more.
Dinner ended in everyone's pleasant chat.
Then everyone found a place to sleep with their clothes on.
It is already the end of October, and the temperature at night is around ten degrees.
If you don't wear enough clothes outside, you will feel obvious cold.
After all, the humidity in the south is high, which is different from the dry cold in the north. When the cold wind blows, the cold can penetrate into the bones.
Everyone brought a lot of clothes, and it was more than enough to resist this cold.
The campfire in the middle of the conference room was not extinguished, and the night watchmen would add firewood from time to time to keep the entire space warm to a certain extent.
Several ventilated windows were opened, and there was no risk of suffocation.
It was only about eight o'clock, and everyone found a place to rest.
Today, in addition to driving for half a day, I was busy for a lot of time when I arrived at this training ground, and I was a little tired, so I went to bed early.
I have to get up when it's my team's turn to watch the night.
Soon, a sound of snoring rang out in the conference room.
