Chapter 1430 Returning
Big camphor tree base.

The first satellite city is fifteen kilometers away from the headquarters base.

Luo Gui, a non-staff member, had received a message from the headquarters base an hour ago that Xiao Jun and others were passing by with a convoy loaded with 3000 tons of oil.

This satellite town is located on the edge of National Highway 319 north of the Dazhangshu Base, right in the middle of the highest point of an uphill and downhill slope, and can clearly see the situation of the national highway from north to south.

roof.

"Lao Gao, have you cleaned the yard? Let's all be more energetic." Luo Gui said to Gao Zhongtian next to him.

"Yes, it has been cleaned, don't worry. But I don't think I have seen this Captain Xiao of the Xiao Army before?"

"Nonsense, when he went to Oil City from our headquarters base, you hadn't joined the Big Camphor Tree Base yet." Luo Gui raised his eyebrows.

When talking about Xiao Jun, Luo Gui's eyes were lost in memories.
Looking back to the time when he was still a cooperative staff member, he joined the Dazhangshu Base not long after Xiao Jun.

Xiao Jun was promoted to an inner city staff member at a terrifying speed.

But I have been stagnant here at the headquarters base.
It was not until the past few months when a large number of non-staff personnel came to support the North and Oil City that I finally accumulated enough points and was promoted to a non-staff personnel.

But he did not feel any jealousy towards Xiao Jun. After all, Xiao Jun had led a group of soldiers with real guns and live ammunition to join in from the very beginning. Their combat effectiveness was very strong, and the gap between their starting point and that of refugees like himself who lived at the bottom of society was too huge.

He held the telescope, raising it up and then putting it down again.

He and Xiao Jun had chatted for a long time when they joined the Big Camphor Tree Base at the same time.

He couldn't remember whether Xiao Jun still remembered him. It was said that Xiao Jun was now the second-in-command in the Oil City and held a highly respected position.

Time passed by minute by minute.

A few minutes later.

He saw through the telescope that there was a huge convoy on National Highway 319 in the north, heading towards them.

Looking closely, I saw that the armored vehicle at the front of the line had the classic logo of the Dazhangshu Base painted on it.

Here it comes! I thought to myself.

He quickly put down the telescope and ran downstairs.

This building, built on the edge of the national highway, was a rural resort hotel before the end of the world.

There is a unique mountain scenic spot nearby, so it is possible to build a building with more than 7 floors in the countryside.

In the apocalypse, the elevator is broken and we have no choice but to take the stairs.

After running all the way down, he carried a gun and waited at the edge of the national highway with Gao Zhongtian and several other people stationed in the First Satellite City.

Since it is too close to the big camphor tree base, the first satellite city has the least number of people.

Generally, partners who go out to search for and transport construction materials will not stay here. Even when it is almost dark, they would rather drive faster and return to the big camphor tree base before the mountain sets.

The big camphor tree base is the safest in their eyes.

But the First Satellite City is still necessary because it is at the intersection of a rural road and National Highway 319. Once a large number of foreign enemies invade from the north, they must take this road.

What's more, there are sometimes special circumstances where some partners really cannot go back and can only come here to avoid the zombies and spend the night.

The First Satellite City is like a nail, stuck fifteen kilometers north of the Dazhangshu Base, serving as the eyes of the Dazhangshu Base.

They waited here for three minutes.

at last.

The convoy from Oil City arrived here, but the armored vehicle at the front did not stop.

Cars passed by one after another, but none of them stopped, not even to say hello.

He simply ignored Luo Gui and others on the roadside.

This made Luo Gui, who was originally very excited, a little disappointed.

Gao Zhongtian next to him also glanced at Luo Gui. He had just heard Luo Gui talk about how good his relationship with Xiao Jun was.

It seems to be bragging.

"Has the fleet operator contacted you just now?" Luo Gui looked unhappy. He felt a little embarrassed in front of his partners.

Moreover, he had just boasted so much in front of Gao Zhongtian, and now he was like a bubble that would burst if poked.

Embarrassing as hell.

"We've contacted them. They said they were going to pass by here and let us know."

Gao Zhongtian saw that Luo Gui didn't seem to be in a good mood, and he knew what he was thinking.

After all, I work under him and have to look at his mood.

So he comforted himself and said:
"Brother Luo, maybe they are anxious to transport the oil back. After all, the mission is important. Xiao Jun may contact you later."

It would have been better if he hadn't said it. This sounded like a mockery to Luo Gui's ears.

He said in a nonchalant tone, with a hint of displeasure:

"Who cares? We just need to do our own thing and get back to duty!"

I went downstairs to greet him myself. At least I should say hello.

You don’t have to say hello, just roll down the window and nod when you pass by.

Being ignored like that made him feel like he was being ignored.

Whenever Li Tie goes out of the city on patrol he always waves to me.

It seems that Xiao Jun has become too proud in Oil City and no longer takes others seriously.

About to turn around and leave.

Crunch!

An armored vehicle in the middle of the convoy stopped.

After this car stopped, the entire convoy slowly stopped, including the one in front.

blah blah blah!

The door of the armored vehicle opened and a man walked out.

It’s Xiao Jun!

"Luo Gui! It's really you! Hahaha, long time no see!"

After Xiao Jun got off the car, he recognized Luo Gui at a glance.
He smiled and shouted to Luo Gui who was turning around to return to the first satellite.

Luo Gui's whole body trembled, and the corners of his mouth curled up involuntarily.

Thinking back, Xiao Jun joined the Big Camphor Tree Base two days later than himself, and Xiao Jun did not live in the Big Camphor Tree Base at the beginning.

Like himself, he lives in a house near the base.

At that time, Xiao Jun had just joined and often asked me about the big camphor tree base.

Later, Xiao Jun often went out to carry out missions, but every time he came back and saw me, we would chat for a few words.

Luo Gui's expression changed rapidly, from being unhappy just now to quickly turning into a smile, and he turned around to look at Xiao Jun.

"Captain Xiao is still as charming as ever."

"Who is that?"

Just behind Xiao Jun, Ma Yingxue looked at Luo Gui curiously.

"My wife, Ma Yingxue, came from Southern Paradise." Xiao Jun replied with a smile.

"Congratulations, you are getting married, a talented man and a beautiful woman!" Luo Gui praised and gave a thumbs up.

I was a little surprised. Are they from South Paradise?
Ma Yingxue came over, and Xiao Jun pointed at Luo Gui and introduced him to Ma Yingxue:
"Luo Gui, my friend, this is the first person I met after joining the Camphor Tree Base."

Luo Gui was satisfied to hear Xiao Jun introduce himself like this.

"Hello, sister-in-law."

"Hello." Ma Yingxue smiled and nodded towards Luo Gui.

Subsequently.

The two chatted for a while, Xiao Jun asked about the base, and Luo Gui also asked briefly about the situation in Oil City. A few minutes later, Xiao Jun looked at his watch.

He said to Luo Gui: "I will return to the big camphor tree base first. I will have to unload the oil overnight. The president and others are waiting now."

"Okay, serious matters are more important, you should go back quickly." Luo Gui said quickly.

The entire convoy was able to stop, and Xiao Jun even got off the car to chat with him, which was undoubtedly a great honor to him.

Moreover, he gained a lot of face in front of the partners he managed.

Vanity was greatly satisfied.

Xiao Jun didn't waste any words and bumped fists with Luo Gui.

He waved his hand, turned around and took Ma Yingxue into the car.

After getting in the car, Xiao Jun picked up the walkie-talkie to contact the vehicle in front.

"Go back to base."

The vehicles started again, and the convoy drove towards the big camphor tree base in a mighty manner.

Luo Gui stood there, watching them leave, his mood fluctuating and filled with emotion.

Only after the convoy completely disappeared from his sight did he hum a little tune and walk towards the first outer city gate.

The several partners who were following him could feel that Luo Gui was in a very happy mood.

Gao Zhongtian praised:

"Brother Luo, Captain Xiao really values ​​you. The convoy even stopped just for you."

This sentence hit the mark, which made Luo Gui feel a little complacent.

So he began to tell Gao Zhongtian and several of his partners about his past with Xiao Jun.

"Back then, Captain Xiao and I joined the Camphor Tree Base at about the same time. No, I joined a few days earlier than him. That night, Captain Xiao found me."

However, when Xiao Jun and others left the First Satellite City, the road was extremely empty and they did not meet any other partners.

Because it was already evening, the partners who had gone out to collect and transport construction materials returned to the large camphor tree base early in order to avoid spending the night outside.

The setting sun is like blood.

The trees on both sides of the road were refracted by the dim sunlight, shining brightly, like pieces of golden leaves.

The trees on both sides of the national highway they had passed had not been repaired for a long time, and many of their branches had grown directly into the middle of the road, blocking the road.

Most of the time you don't need to pay attention to them, just drive past them.

As the vehicle passed by, tree branches scratched across the body of the vehicle, making crackling sounds.

In the month after the thunderstorm ended, the plants absorbed enough water from the thunderstorm and grew wildly under the strong light.

As a result, the branches of the trees on both sides of some roads have grown too lush and thick, so people have to get out of the car and chop them with a knife, or use a saw to cut through the thick branches to clear a path.

However, from more than ten kilometers away, they basically did not encounter such long horizontal branches.

This road has been cleaned up many times by the cooperating personnel who come and go.
It has also been repaired by the road construction team, so there are no tree branches blocking the road.

soon.

They arrived outside the buffer city of the large camphor tree base. The buffer city covered a very large area.

To reach the location of the large camphor tree base, you need to enter a rural road from National Highway 319, drive a few hundred meters, cross an unnamed road in a forest, and make a detour to see the large camphor tree base.

But now, the buffer city wall has been built directly to a place only thirty meters away from the national highway.

A wall more than one thousand meters long was built along National Highway 319, and this is only the side close to the highway.

A dozen electric trucks were coming from the opposite direction, and the people on the trucks were Le Ziqing, who was going to the river beach in the south to mine sand.

He looked at the convoy of armored vehicles in front of him with a look of shock.

Shi Jingsheng, who was driving the car, asked:

"This should be the convoy of our base, right?"

"Nonsense, didn't you see the base's logo? Besides, if it wasn't a car from our base, it would definitely not appear here in such a high-profile manner." Le Ziqing glanced at him.

"This is too much. I wonder what's in these trucks."

"Stop the car and give way." Le Ziqing said.

“But it’s already evening.”

"They're already at the doorstep, why are you worrying? Give them the way and let them in first." Le Ziqing said impatiently.

"alright."

Zheng Lang, who was driving an armored vehicle on the other side, saw the transport vehicle on the other side stop and smiled at Huang Zheng: "They stopped the car, so shall we go in first?"

"Yeah." Huang Zheng nodded.

Zheng Lang controlled the armored vehicle and slowly drove towards the buffer city gate.

They were already on their way here and had already contacted the headquarters base.

The buffer gate was open at this time. Since there were often cooperative personnel transport trucks entering and exiting during the day, it would not be appropriate to open and close it all the time.

So the buffer city was opened, and a vehicle barrier and two sentry boxes were set up in front.

When entering or exiting, the transport truck stops here for a quick inspection and then puts up the railing to let it pass.

In the sentry booth.

Yu Lei, a non-staff member, sat in the sentry box, looking at the clock out of boredom.

In another thirty minutes, the buffer city gate will be closed.

He was originally at the weighing scale, watching it with Lai Dongsheng.

But due to the shortage of manpower here, he is also a veteran in the base.

In the entire camphor tree, he is considered the most senior non-staff member.

Because he had one leg broken by Gang Gaojie, he could not do physical work and was limping. In addition, he had always been loyal to the large camphor tree base, so he was arranged to be the gatekeeper here.

In addition to him, there were several other non-staff members watching the door here.

Zhao Kui and Cui Wen, two non-staff members of Bai Wenyang's group, would rather die than reveal the location of the large camphor tree base when facing the enemy, so they had two fingers chopped off and became slightly disabled.

All three of them had some disabilities and were unable to carry out some tasks, but the Dazhangshu Base did not abandon them. Instead, they were placed in some easier positions.

It seems like the three of them are only here during the day, and basically nothing will happen here during the day.

What's more, there are patrol teams around the Dazhangshu base, plus satellite cities are guarding the surrounding area, and many cooperative personnel are collecting and transporting construction materials from all around.

At the buffer city gate, it's basically just a simple inspection.

There are a total of six people at the sentry post. In addition to the three people, there are three more people guarding the vehicles entering and leaving the buffer city gate.

"Brother Yu, Captain Xiao and the others are here." Zhao Kui hurried over.

Yu Lei quickly stood up and limped out with the remote control of the parking barrier in his hand.

Just at this time, Zheng Lang and his team drove over from the national highway in an armored vehicle.

drip-

beep--

Yu Lei immediately opened the barrier blocking the car.

This barrier cannot actually stop vehicles, it only stops them symbolically.

If the vehicle hits hard, it can also be knocked open.

Moreover, these convoys are all heading to the outer city of the Dazhangshu base, and they will definitely be inspected in the inner city of the first outer city.

Huang Zheng climbed up from the inside of the armored vehicle and saw Yu Lei standing at the sentry booth.
Yu Lei felt a little excited when he saw this old acquaintance.

"Old Yu! I haven't seen you for over a year!"
