Chapter 954 Ants move, snakes cross the aisle

September 24th.

As October approaches, the autumn wind picks up and becomes cooler.

Many people changed from short sleeves to long sleeves, but most of the cooperators were not so particular and just put on a layer of long sleeves over the short sleeves they originally wore.

Oil City.

Xiao Jun checked the vehicle and said to Ju Tianrui behind him:

"Battal Commander, I leave this to you. Please take care, we are returning to the base."

Huhu——

The temperature in the north dropped faster than in the south, and a gust of wind blew Xiao Jun's combat uniforms rattling.

Ju Tianrui nodded and said, "Okay, please pay attention to safety on the road."

Xiao Jun looked at Dongtai, Zuo Ruxue and others next to Ju Tianrui, waved to them, and then got on the infantry fighting vehicle.

Said to the driver: "Let's go!"

boom--

The vehicle started, followed by dozens of vehicles, carrying more than 600 tons of oil, one truck of medicine, two trucks of salt, and two trucks of sugar, and headed out towards the gate.

It wasn't until they drove out of the Oil City that Ju Tianrui said to Dongtai:

"Why do you suddenly want to stay? You should be able to return to the base."

Dongtai smiled and said: "Batalion Commander, I want to stay and help you. Anyway, Xiao Jun shouldn't have any problems when he goes back, and there's nothing he wants me to do."

When Ju Tianrui heard what he said, he felt something in his heart. He patted Dongtai on the shoulder, and then walked towards the wall.

Oil City is surrounded by plains, and the view is excellent. You can also see Xiao Jun's vehicles retreating away.

The weather has been hot over the past few months, causing the surrounding land to be very dry.

The convoy stirred up sand and dust, and they drove slowly southward in the dust and under the sunshine.

Withdrawing his gaze, Ju Tianrui looked at He Bing and Zhou Ran who were conducting final inspections on the mobile gate knife not far away, thought for a while and walked over.

"He Gong, how is the mobile knife?"

He Bing put the wrench on the ground, straightened up and said, "It's almost the same. I'll check the circuit again and start testing in an hour."

"Okay, what should I do if the mobile knife breaks down?" Ju Tianrui asked He Bing and the others at this time, considering that He Bing and the others would have to return to the Da Zhangshu base.

He Bing pointed to the two team members who had been following him these days and said:

"I have involved them in the recent installation process. There are only a few key points that can cause failures. They should all understand them. I also told them how to repair the failures. If it really doesn't work, if they can't solve it, just contact me. .

If the military radio station can't explain clearly, I will talk to Mr. Li at that time, and it won't matter if I come over again. "

Ju Tianrui felt relieved when he heard his reply.

"That's good."

Then he said to the team members sent to study with He Bing and the others these days: "Study hard, and you may not be able to use it when the time comes."

"clear."

He Bing glanced at Ju Tianrui and then said: "I told the jackals and ants of the special team that we can get the mobile gate knife this morning. In the afternoon, we will return to the Da Zhangshu base. It will happen to be at the transfer station. Join Xiao Jun and the others."

Ju Tianrui looked at the jackals and ants next to the helicopter in the oil city, his eyes full of admiration.

He is also someone who came from the army. He has always respected soldiers like Ant, Jackal and the others. With them around, he seems to have confidence.

Xiao Jun left with dozens of combatants on the front foot, and people like Ant were also leaving. At this time, Ju Tianrui finally realized what Lao Bi felt at the time.

Watching the number of people in Oil City shrink, coupled with the cold autumn wind, adds to the feeling of loneliness and loneliness.

Ju Tianrui took a deep breath and said slowly: "Okay, look at you, you might as well go back early. The tasks at the base are heavy. Thank you for coming here this time."

Seeing that Ju Tianrui's tone seemed a little strange, recalling that Ju Tianrui just watched Xiao Jun's motorcade leaving blankly, he made some guesses in his mind.

He smiled and said, "We'll wait for you at the base. Besides, it's so convenient now. Maybe I'll be sent here again by President Li in a few days."

After hearing what He Bing said, Ju Tianrui felt the same and his expression softened a lot.

He nodded and said, "You're right, that's fine, I won't disturb you any more."

After saying that, he walked under the wall. He wanted to check the repair problems of the oil well again.

Mr. Li is very concerned about this matter and would ask about it almost every day when communicating with Oil City.

After several months of reinforcements by Lao Bi, Xiao Jun, and Ju Tianrui, the height of the oil city wall has reached a height of nineteen meters.

Ju Tianrui also followed Li Yu's instructions and packed the refined diesel gasoline into different buildings.

In addition, the dozens of sets of radiation protection suits that Li Yu sent last time are also placed on the third floor of the tallest building.

When I walked to the oil well, the frame I built was still there.

Next to it, Marcello was squatting in front of the tool box, seeming to be rummaging for something.

"How are you, horseman? Can you do it tomorrow?" Ju Tianrui walked over and asked.

Marseille was startled by Ju Tianrui's sudden words. He raised his head and took a breath and said, "No problem, we will definitely get it done before tomorrow evening."

"Okay." Ju Tianrui nodded after hearing Marseille's reply.

But he said that Xiao Jun and others drove all the way to the south and did not encounter any twists and turns on the way. They just had to be a little more vigilant when they passed a cross-river bridge on the way.

Previously, Li Yu led the main personnel of the Da Zhangshu Base to the north and eliminated the motorcycle gangs, and then seized a large amount of supplies and vehicles.

On the way back, a convoy of hundreds of vehicles was like a long queue.

When passing the bridge across the river, because the convoy was too long, it attracted the attention of the zombies in the river, so a battle broke out to protect the convoy with the zombies.

However, several cars, a dozen or so, passed by at once, and by the time the zombies in the river were awakened, they had all crossed the bridge.

However, this time they carried a lot of oil. There were more than a dozen oil tankers alone, and some oil was packed in iron barrels and placed inside the trucks.

Together with infantry fighting vehicles and other trucks, the convoy reached fifty vehicles.

This is the largest fleet size since Mr. Li personally led the team before and led hundreds of vehicles across the river.

Crunch——

The car stops.

One kilometer away from the cross-river bridge.

Xiao Jun picked up the telescope and looked up and down the bridge across the river. The water surface was shimmering in the sun, and there was no one on the bridge across the river.

After observing for two minutes, Xiao Jun picked up the walkie-talkie and said to the convoy behind: "Later, everyone rush over as fast as possible and don't stop."

"If there is a problem with a car on the way, the people in the car should get out of the car immediately and go to another car. Don't stay on the bridge."

"Wait half an hour before we get someone to repair the car. Do you understand?"

The words just fell.

Echoes came from the intercom:

"receive."

"Set off!"

Xiao Jun said to the driver.

boom!

The vehicle sped out in an instant, taking the lead and rushing towards the bridge.

Soon, the leading infantry fighting vehicle arrived at the bridge.

Rumble——

The water under the bridge rippled, and zombies emerged one after another.

However, Xiao Jun and others ignored this. What they needed to do now was to rush across the bridge that spanned several kilometers as fast as possible.

As time passed, one car after another came onto the bridge.

More and more zombies appeared on the water. Some zombies gathered on the bridge entering the water, while others swam towards the shore.

As the last car climbed onto the bridge, a zombie finally swam to the beach and walked toward the shore.

Three minutes later, Xiao Jun came down from the bridge.

But he did not stop and asked the driver to continue driving forward. Parking the car here would only cause congestion to the vehicles behind.

A car comes off the bridge.

When the last car came off the bridge, dozens of zombies were already rushing towards the shore under the bridge.

However, Xiao Jun and the others were still one step ahead.

The driver of the last car looked at the zombies more than ten meters behind and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Young man, you can still catch up with us like this."

As the vehicle drove, the zombies behind them became farther and farther away from them.

After driving for another five minutes, Xiao Jun picked up the walkie-talkie and asked the vehicles behind to report the number.

Xiao Jun felt relieved when he heard that none of the cars were left behind.

He said to the driver: "Slow down a little and let the team behind you catch up."

"Okay." The driver slowed down the car and shortened the distance between the cars behind him.

After another four hours, they finally arrived in Xiushui County.

But it was already afternoon.

Zhou Tian and others stationed at the transfer station in Xiushui County used a drone to see the convoy driving in the distance.

Then he said to the ant who had just arrived here an hour ago:

"Xiao Jun and the others should be here. I'll open the door for them."

Ant nodded and said: "Okay, you go and do your work. We will stay here for one night tonight, and we will return to Da Zhangshu Base with Xiao Jun and the others tomorrow."

He Bing and others took the helicopter several times faster than Xiao Jun and others on land.

So even though they set off several hours later than Xiao Jun and the others, they arrived at the transfer station first.

Oil City.

Ju Tianrui looked at the mobile gate knife that had been tested twice by He Bing and the others in the morning, and asked Dongtai to open it again.

The moving knife rotates slowly, making a sound of metal and stone.

Since there were no zombies, the friction between the sharp blades made a sharp sound that made people's scalp numb after hearing it.

"Yes, it's running fine. Turn it off." Ju Tianrui said to the team members behind him.

The team members walked under the wall and pressed a button in a room.

The mobile gate on the fence was closed instantly.

Bang bang bang.

The moving blade lost power, began to shrink, and lowered vertically against the wall.

Under the sunlight, the sharp blade reflects the light.

In this room that controls the mobile knives, there are also several diesel generators and batteries stacked up, which are the power sources for the movable knives.

To prevent flooding during heavy rains, they raised the batteries and generators by half a meter.

Moreover, the drainage system in Oil City has been upgraded, so there should be no water accumulation in the city like the last heavy rain and flood.

Big camphor tree base.

Li Yu received news from Ju Tianrui and learned that Xiao Jun and the others were on their way back to the Da Zhangshu base.

Calculating the itinerary, we should have arrived at the transfer station by now.

Seeing that the batch of oil from Oil City was about to be transported back, the transfer station had to be temporarily cancelled, and the personnel inside returned to the base.

Now it's time to prepare for the people in the five satellite cities to pack up and return to the Da Zhangshu base.

Although the five satellite cities also have walls, they are also protected by personnel from the outer city.

But this intensity cannot withstand the natural disaster that will break out a few days later.

What's more, it's a continuous natural disaster. With just a wall of less than ten meters, it is very likely to be captured in the first wave of heavy rain and zombies.

Even if they can survive, in the subsequent natural disaster, the people at the Da Zhangshu base will not be able to go out to replenish food and other supplies to the people in the satellite city.

With the current situation of the satellite city, it is absolutely impossible to survive this natural disaster.

This is not the first time that non-staff and cooperative personnel have been evacuated to the Da Zhangshu base.

However, since the satellite city was built, although it occasionally rained twice, it has not retreated.

This is the first full-scale retreat that Li Yu has ordered after the satellite city was built.

What's more, this time the people are spread out too widely and there are too many things, so it is a big project to evacuate all five satellite cities.

Li Yu put down the headset and frowned.

Walking out of the duty room, I felt a sweltering wind that made people breathless.

The sky is full of birds, and many birds fly to the base of the big camphor tree.

During previous natural disasters, some birds chose to take refuge here in many buildings at Dazhangshu Base.

Li Yu also deliberately opened the gymnasium to let the birds enter.

Later, there seemed to be a migratory bird effect. Whenever a natural disaster was about to come, these birds would naturally fly to the camphor tree base.

Since there was no shortage of food, Li Yu ordered people not to harm these birds.

A dragonfly flew in front of Li Yu.

Li Yu lowered his head and looked under the wall, and sure enough he saw countless dragonflies flying low.

Outside the fence, he even saw a black and white snake slithering in the woods.

The three wolf dogs that had been following Li Yu seemed to have become depressed and a little anxious.

All this seems to indicate something.

Li Yu thought about chatting with his second uncle, so he asked Li Haoran in the duty room: "Where is your dad? Where is he?"

"He is over at the Second Outer City Maintenance Factory." Li Haoran replied.

"good."

Li Yu walked down from the wall and walked a few steps.

I saw a group of ants on the ground, which seemed to be moving.

The dense ants made Li Yu thoughtful.
