"I'm asking about the entire base. I'm not asking about what's left in this Lu Dun." Zhang Xiaoqiang was afraid that the Second Lieutenant didn't hear him clearly, so he explained again in detail.
"Sir …"
"Don't call me Chief. I'm fine, just call me Zhang Xiaoqiang."
Hearing the Second Lieutenant call him Chief, Zhang Xiaoqiang felt uncomfortable. He wasn't that old yet, right?
"Sir … Brother … Cockroach, all of the base's inventory is here. During the last transfer, all of the 30mm cannons in the base were also transported away."
Hearing this, Zhang Xiaoqiang felt depressed again. He had finally obtained a weapon of mass destruction, but without ammunition, it could only be used as a decoration. The remaining ammunition had to be saved for the most critical moment. Currently, he could only hope for the 37mm anti-aircraft cannons. After all, they were cannons, right?
Thinking about the 18 37mm cannons, Zhang Xiaoqiang's heart burned with passion again. Lu Dun was not part of his plans, so it would be better if he had it. Without it, Zhang Xiaoqiang wouldn't force the issue.
"Attention, Chief Zhang, attention, there is an unknown convoy approaching the base. There is an unknown convoy approaching the base. Chief Zhang, please make a decision …"
The slightly older logistics colonel's warning came through the walkie-talkie. Zhang Xiaoqiang was dumbfounded. He had only found this base by luck. How did the entire world know about it now?
"What are you waiting for?
Hurry up and follow me to the base's entrance … "Zhang Xiaoqiang shouted at the two soldiers standing at the side.
Zhang Xiaoqiang, Yang Ke-er, and Shanghai Qiaoyun sat in Lu Dun's manufacturing room and watched as the base's entrance slowly opened. Behind them, two quadruple anti-aircraft machine guns were pointed in the direction of the entrance. Zhang Xiaoqiang didn't know who had come, but he had already decided that as long as he was interested in the base, it would be his. He wouldn't give it to anyone. What he didn't like?
That was the country's property. No matter what, he had to protect the country's property. Otherwise, he would have to wait for a missile to land on his head one day.
It was obvious that the convoy was very careful. While Zhang Xiaoqiang was bored, they were advancing at a tortoise's pace. Zhang Xiaoqiang was a little anxious about the unknown convoy. He really wanted to drive the Continental Shield into the canyon to take a look, but after a while, he decided to wait and see. He already had the Continental Shield on his side, he did not believe that there would be a tank on the other side.
"Attention, attention, the convoy will make contact with us in ten minutes. The convoy will make contact with us in ten minutes …"
"Ah …" Zhang Xiaoqiang yawned out of boredom. It took the team an hour to travel a distance of less than 20 kilometers. Even a tortoise would be faster than them.
Finally, at the place where Zhang Xiaoqiang parked his car yesterday, a convoy slowly appeared. Looking at the messy vehicles, Zhang Xiaoqiang was a little disdainful. Now that he had obtained a large number of military vehicles, he could already unify the vehicles. When he saw the messy vehicles, he could not help but look down on them. After all, his subordinates were considered half of the regular army.
At this moment, the rear of the opposing convoy appeared. Seeing the rear of the convoy, Zhang Xiaoqiang almost choked. There were four large trucks, each dragging a double-barreled anti-aircraft machine gun. Seeing the familiar anti-aircraft machine gun, Zhang Xiaoqiang knew where the convoy came from.
"Aiya, Zhang Xiaoqiang, you don't know how anxious we were. When we saw so many injured people and that madman lying on the ground, we really didn't know that the birds had become so powerful. Furthermore, the survivors said that the one you shot was still small. We thought that it was better to be safe than sorry, so we brought all the big guys out …"
As the old policeman Zhang Xiaoqiang spoke of the base's worries, Wang Le came out of the shield. He stepped on the off-road vehicle parked at the side and climbed to the ground and said to Zhang Xiaoqiang, "I don't understand, I really don't understand. I've never seen the things inside before. The messy equipment makes me dizzy, and I can't even reassemble the shells. I can only use the toys from a few decades ago. Why don't I go take a look at the Type-65 anti-aircraft gun? That thing shouldn't have so much technology."
Hearing that Wang Le couldn't reassemble the 30mm armor-piercing shell, Zhang Xiaoqiang gave up. He raised his chin towards the workshop and said, "There's a large vehicle workshop in front. I saw that the equipment inside is better than the ones in your factory. You should go take a look …"
Before Zhang Xiaoqiang could finish his sentence, Wang Le turned around and ran towards the direction Zhang Xiaoqiang pointed at. It was obvious that his lack of understanding of Lu Dun had given him a huge blow. If he couldn't even operate the things in the workshop, then he, Factory Director Wang, would lose all his face.
Zhang Xiaoqiang got someone to fill up the hole he dug in the wall with cement. He then drove the new team members back to the base. The moment he got out of the car, he saw the lieutenant colonel standing at the entrance of the tunnel waiting for Zhang Xiaoqiang. He was a little surprised to see the new team members getting out of the car one after another.
"Go make the arrangements. Let the colonel command them to move the anti-aircraft guns and weapons out. Also, tell him that I want to leave ten people at the base to help him guard the base. Tell him not to worry, I won't touch those missiles. I'm keeping them here to guard the base's supplies."
Hearing Zhang Xiaoqiang's words, the lieutenant colonel understood. Zhang Xiaoqiang meant that the food and other supplies wouldn't be taken away for the time being. However, he didn't feel safe leaving them here, so he might as well leave a few people to guard the base.
"Oh right, do you have anything like a wireless? I want to maintain contact between the two bases."
Zhang Xiaoqiang thought about how He Wen Bin and the others didn't know about the situation here and sent people from the base to receive them. If they could maintain contact with the base at all times, they wouldn't have made such a big joke today.
"How far is your base from here in a straight line?"
When the lieutenant colonel heard Zhang Xiaoqiang asking him about communication, he couldn't help but puff out his chest. He knew this stuff very well.
Zhang Xiaoqiang silently calculated in his heart. He wasn't familiar with the road the day before yesterday, so he spent five out of eight hours taking detours. To be honest, the hot spring base was less than 300 kilometers away from the missile base.
"About 300 kilometers. That's about right. I don't know if it's accurate."
"If that's the case, we'll have to set up an antenna at your base. 300 kilometers is considered a medium wave distance. The base has ready-made backup equipment. There are some officers among the survivors who specialize in information technology. If we bring along two communication command vehicles, we'll be able to receive wireless signals within 100 kilometers."
"Go make the arrangements …" Zhang Xiaoqiang didn't know anything about medium wave or short wave. Thinking about the four heavily injured people here, Zhang Xiaoqiang was a little annoyed. Plus, it wouldn't be easy to treat four people at the base.
As he thought about it, Zhang Xiaoqiang saw an independent building in the distance surrounded by a forest. A red cross appeared in front of him. "Is that a hospital?
Do any of you know medicine? "
"That's the base's medical center. Second Lieutenant Hu Jia might know some first aid …"
