At eight the next morning.
All the troops were assembled. Even if they drank so much yesterday, all the officers and soldiers showed up here in high spirits.
According to tradition, there should be a pre war mobilization at this time, but general Yansong cancelled the pre war mobilization because he knew that all the soldiers had been prepared yesterday. It was no longer necessary to do pre war mobilization this time.
Therefore, general Yansong didn''t say any more nonsense and ordered directly.
"Go out!"
With general Yansong''s order, the soldiers immediately ran to their vehicles, and then boarded armored vehicles or tanks as fast as possible.
Cai Wenjie is no exception, because all the troops assigned to him yesterday are here, so he must take the whole army to act together. Of course, the original army and Li Jianjun''s army will follow Cai Wenjie, and even Li Jianjun himself will follow Cai Wenjie.
As a guerrilla force, Cai Wenjie and his troops do not follow the same path. He must lead his troops to reach their destination faster than his headquarters. To be exact, it is the destination of his troops, that is, the fortress left by the previous border forces.
Unlike Cai Wenjie, who needs to fight guerrillas, the troops of the headquarters, that is, the troops personally commanded by general Yansong, their main combat task is to hold their positions and resist the attack of zombies. Because there is no way to build a suitable fortress in a short time, general Yansong decided to use the fortress and front previously used by the border forces for defensive operations.
However, because the fortresses and fronts left behind by the border forces are now occupied by zombies, Cai Wenjie, who is responsible for guerrilla tasks, must first lead out the zombies in the fortress and front so that the subsequent headquarters troops can enter smoothly, which is the main reason why the two troops have different routes.
The route Cai Wenjie wants to use is a shortcut, which will arrive at his destination half an hour faster than the troops of his headquarters. However, the danger of this road is relatively high, and zombies or mutant zombies will jump out to attack the convoy at any time.
However, zombies and mutant zombies, no matter how powerful, can''t withstand a tank shelling, so this danger can be ignored.
Soon, the armored forces led by Cai Wenjie diverged from the large forces and entered the shortcut.
"Attention, all vehicles, we have entered the shortcut. Zombies may appear here at any time. If you encounter zombies, don''t be polite, don''t turn or brake, and hit them directly! If you encounter any other problems, please report at any time."
"Copy that!"
Because there are tanks in the team, the speed of the whole team is not very fast, only 60 kilometers per hour. According to this speed, it must take an hour to reach the destination.
If it is another commander, his car should be in the middle or rear of the unit, but Cai Wenjie is different. His car is in the front of the team, that is, the first car. The reason is that the front car has a good vision and can find accidents in advance to command the unit.
Of course, this reason is just what I said. The real reason is only Cai Wenjie himself.
Cai Wenjie is sitting in a modified infantry combat vehicle. The weapon system on this infantry combat vehicle only retains one vehicle mounted machine gun. All other weapons are removed and replaced with radar and various communication devices. Moreover, the second half of the troop transportation space has also been transformed into a holographic combat simulator, which can simulate the combat terrain and weather conditions in real time.
Because it is specially responsible for commanding the troops in the safe rear, its self-protection ability is not very sufficient. However, because there is no need to consider the issue of weapons, the maximum speed of this armored vehicle can reach 150 kilometers per hour. It can be said that it has no racing compared with ordinary vehicles, as long as it can stand the bumpiness and don''t vomit.
If you encounter a sneak attack siege, you can leave the original place as quickly as possible and escape the siege of zombies, which also ensures the safety of the commander in another sense.
After a period of time, the team drove on this road for almost half an hour, and then it will reach its destination in half an hour.
So far, no accidents have happened along the way. Just when people thought the rest of the journey would be smooth, the accident happened.
It was not the attack of zombies, but the problem caused by the Three Tank Companies in the convoy. Because the weight of tanks was too heavy and the road was too old, many sections were crushed by tanks, and a good cement road directly became a gravel road.
Originally, even if the cement road turns into a gravel road, there should be no problem for the troops full of armored vehicles, but the problem is that there is a bridge built a long time ago in the middle of the road. Although it is also made of cement, it takes too long. Once the team passes the bridge, the bridge collapses, it will be in trouble.
Moreover, judging from the cement road at the time of arrival, the probability of bridge collapse is very high, which makes Cai Wenjie dare not order the team to pass the bridge.
"Attention, all vehicles, stop at the same place immediately and wait for the command!"
"Copy that!"
Soon, all the armored vehicles of the team stopped moving under Cai Wenjie''s command, and several people came down from the front of the team, including Cai Wenjie himself.
"Let''s go and see what the bridge ahead is like."
For the sake of safety, Cai Wenjie did not take many people to inspect the bridge, but only took a few guards and engineers.
When he came to the side of the bridge, Cai Wenjie ordered the engineers to check the condition of the old bridge.
After a simple inspection, the engineers immediately reported the situation to Cai Wenjie.
"Report leader! After our inspection, we found that this bridge is the most common cement reinforced concrete bridge, and it has existed for more than 80 years. It is reasonable that this bridge should be rebuilt, but there is no trace of reconstruction, so various cracks have appeared in all parts of this bridge. For the sake of safety, I don''t recommend that the team pass through this bridge."
"Really, I see. It''s hard for you to go back"
"Yes!"
After sending the engineers back first, Cai Wenjie immediately used the system satellite and began to look for the way in other directions. Then he found that if he wanted to reach his destination before the big army, he could only take this road and could not change the road. Once the road was changed, it would be possible for the big army to face a large number of zombies in the destination.
Of course, this is only what happens when there is no communication between the two sides.
