Apocalypse Rebirth: 3000 million won at the beginning

Chapter 1872: Can fly so well!

Half past four in the afternoon.

It has been two hours since the helicopter from the Northwest Base arrived above the zombie army.

In the helicopter.

The driver looked at the fuel gauge and reminded:
"Captain, we are running low on fuel. We must land and refuel the helicopter!"

Youlong looked at the helicopter in the oil city in the distance.

He asked, "How long can you hold on?"

"Half an hour at most," the driver replied.

"Then let's fly back and find a safe place to refuel the helicopter." Youlong replied.

In order to increase the helicopter's flight time, the Northwest Base adopted the same method as the previous Dazhangshu Base.

That is to expand the helicopter's fuel tank and install portable, detachable fuel drums inside the helicopter.

If it is a long-distance flight, the installed portable detachable fuel tank allows the helicopter to land and refuel at any time.

If the flight distance does not exceed 1500 kilometers, the flight time will not exceed 5 hours.

The oil drums can be removed to make more space for supplies or people.

When leaving, Youlong took another look at the helicopter in Oil City, feeling a little curious.

The helicopter from the oil city arrived here earlier than them, so how come its flight time is longer than theirs?

Moreover, they flew here from Zhangye, which is much closer than flying from the Oil City.

Did they stockpile fuel nearby so they could refuel at any time?
It seems that only this explanation can explain why the helicopters in Oil City have such a long flight time.

After the helicopter flew northwest for more than twenty minutes, they landed on a flat national highway.

Refuel the helicopter quickly.

The sun sets relatively late in the northwest, and it is still more than three hours before dark.

But they couldn't spend the night outside.

If Wuwei Base had not been destroyed, they would be very close to returning to Wuwei Base.

Now we can only go to the farther Zhangye base to rest.

After filling up the fuel, they flew the helicopter to the Zhangye farm base.

The next day.

Youlong and his crew flew the helicopter towards the southeast.

Based on their calculations of the zombie army's movement speed, after one night, the zombie army should have arrived near Lan City.

So they flew directly to Lanzhou, which is about 600 kilometers from Lanzhou to Zhangye Agricultural and Animal Husbandry Base.

Before arriving in Lan City, Youlong stopped less than 50 kilometers away from Lan City to refuel the helicopter in order to verify his guess.

He just didn't believe it. Their helicopter had an extra fuel tank and its range could reach 1500 kilometers.

The helicopter in the Oil City is a medium-to-large armed helicopter. It is large in size and weight, and its fuel consumption per hour is definitely higher than theirs.

The range and time should not be as good as theirs.

After refueling, they flew to Lan City.

As expected, they found a large army of zombies five kilometers east of Lan City.

At the same time, they also saw the Oil City helicopter flying in the sky.

When Youlong saw the helicopter, there was some surprise in his eyes.

How come we arrived earlier than them?

Where did the guys in the Oil City helicopter spend the night last night?
Time passes slowly.

It was already ten o'clock in the morning when they arrived here, and two hours had passed.

The sun is shining high.

Zombies don’t like sunlight very much. When exposed to direct sunlight, their walking speed and reaction will decrease.

At twelve o'clock noon, the zombie army under the sunlight slowed down a lot.

Hu Tian looked at the two helicopters on his left and right, feeling somewhat overwhelmed.

Especially the helicopter in Oil City. After two days of observation, he found that the helicopter was above them day and night.

But he had no choice now and could only stare at the helicopter in the sky.

They even have to worry about helicopters in the sky suddenly launching attacks and bombings on them.

Even though there are hundreds of thousands of zombies on the ground, the bombing may not necessarily hit you.

But, what if my luck is that bad?

Another two hours passed.

2 p.m.

Northwest Helicopters is low on fuel again.

In an hour at most, their helicopter will run out of fuel.

But Youlong looked at the Oil City helicopter not far away and still did not leave.

His head was full of question marks. The helicopter from the oil city arrived earlier than them.

Moreover, their helicopter had just been refueled before coming over.

How come the helicopter in Oil City can fly for so long!
"Captain, should we return?" the pilot reminded.

Youlong stared at the helicopter in the distance, his desire to win rising in his heart. He felt that the helicopter on the opposite side must be running out of fuel.

So he replied, “Wait a little longer.”

"it is good."

Time flies and another half an hour has passed.

The fuel in the helicopter was only enough for them to fly for another half an hour at most, but the helicopter from Oil City still showed no intention of retreating.

Oh shit!

Youlong cursed in his heart, are the people in Oil City crazy? Do they have to wait until there is no fuel before landing?
There are hordes of zombies below. It will take half an hour to land and refuel. How dangerous.

After more than ten minutes, the helicopter was running low on fuel.

Youlong could only say angrily: "Retreat and find a place to refuel!"

The helicopter quickly flew away and found a relatively flat place to refuel.

"Speed ​​up, I want to see how long the helicopter in Oil City can last!" Youlong said angrily.

They left first to refuel the helicopter and were away for more than ten minutes. They returned immediately after refueling.

If you don't see the Oil City helicopter, it means the people from Oil City have gone to refuel.

If you see the helicopter from Oil City, it means the people from Oil City didn't refuel the helicopter at all, because there is not enough time and it is impossible for them to be faster than them.

After all, they left first, and even took the risk of refueling so close to the zombie army, so their speed was fast enough.

buzzing-

When Youlong did not give up and flew the helicopter back over the zombie army again, he found that the helicopter from Oil City was still there.

"This is fucking unreasonable!" said the Saddle in the helicopter with his eyes wide open.

“How come the helicopters in Oil City can last so long?”

No one could answer his questions.

Youlong got angry and said to the driver:
"Leave enough fuel to return to Zhangye Agricultural and Animal Husbandry Base. We will keep following the zombie army before that. I don't believe that the helicopters in Oil City don't need to refuel?" "Okay, Captain!" The pilot had the same idea.

After all, he had been flying a helicopter for so long, but he had never seen a helicopter with such a long flight time.

Another three hours passed.

Youlong felt numb all over.

According to their calculations, the helicopter from the oil city in the east had been flying for at least eight hours.

It can still fly now and even looks like it still has plenty of power.

After another half an hour, the remaining fuel was only enough for them to return to Zhangye Agricultural and Animal Husbandry Base.

The fuel in the barrels in the cabin had been added to the fuel tank several hours ago.

If they don't return now, they won't be able to get back to Zhangye Agricultural and Animal Husbandry Base. They will have to spend the night outside and can't go back. They can only ask for support on the spot.

In desperation, Youlong had to give the order to retreat.

On the way back, he simultaneously told the boss about this discovery.

I don’t know what the helicopter in Oil City did, but its flight time can reach over 9 hours.

This means that helicopters from Oil City can fly directly to the Northwest Base and still be able to leave after a wave of bombing.

This is extremely passive for the Northwest Base.

After hearing the news, the boss was shocked and became curious about the helicopters in Oil City.

So he told Youlong:
"I will send another helicopter over tomorrow, and you will take turns monitoring the zombie army and the Oil City helicopter."

After hearing the boss' words, Youlong suddenly became excited.

If the two helicopters rotate, they can ensure that the zombie army and the Oil City helicopter are monitored at all times.

It can also detect the endurance limit of the helicopters in Oil City.

What they didn't expect was that the helicopters in Oil City had almost no upper limit to their flight time.

The zombie generator continues to supply electricity to the helicopter, enough to keep it flying.

The only thing that limits the flight time of the perpetual helicopter is the people in the helicopter, the food and water. As long as these are not consumed, they can keep flying the helicopter.

Northwest base.

The boss's impression of Oil City became more mysterious.

He wanted to send people to investigate the oil city, but when he thought of the two waves of spies he had sent there before, he felt that there was no point in sending more people there.

The two waves of spies sent out successively cannot be contacted now.

It is very likely that they have turned against him.

Even if he sent someone over, if they were recognized by people like Hong Gongcao, it would be a waste of time.

Thinking of this, the boss felt a little headache.

Night falls.

The judge and the others looked at the Northwest helicopter that went back and forth twice and felt like laughing.

It was obvious that the Northwest helicopter during the day wanted to compete with them to see who could fly longer.

But this time, the Northwest Base would never guess that their helicopter could actually fly all the time.

In the past two days, in addition to guarding the Northwest helicopter, the Judge and his men also carefully observed the zombie army on the ground, trying to find the zombie army's weaknesses.

Oil City.

The transport team led by Zuo Ruxue arrived here again.

Zuo Ruxue took out a list and handed it to Zhong Chuchu.

"The list of materials transported this time is all here. You can count them when you unload them. Please sign for me after you are done."

The transport brigade transports large quantities of materials, whether it is from the headquarters base to the oil city or from the oil city to the headquarters base. After they deliver the goods to the destination, the signing personnel must count the materials to see if there are any missing materials and sign their names.

"Okay, leave this to us. You guys go and rest early." Zhong Chuchu nodded when she saw Zuo Ruxue looking tired.

The transport brigade has been very busy these days.

Working non-stop, it took two days to reach Oil City, and then two days to return to the headquarters base from Oil City.

This cycle repeats itself over and over again. In the past half month, the members of the transport team have not had a single day of rest. They are either on the road or preparing to depart.

It is precisely because of the transport team led by Zuo Ruxue that the current food crisis in Oil City has been resolved.

The grain reserves in the oil city are now enough to support the entire city for three months.

Three months later, the crops in the buffer city were ripe and could supply their own food.

"Okay, I'll be leaving now." Zuo Ruxue glanced at Zhong Chuchu and said, "Thank you for your help."

After saying that, she left the underground warehouse in Oil City.

When we walked out of the underground warehouse, the moonlight was shining down, and the shadow of the oil well tower not far away was cast on the building next to it.

Zuo Ruxue dragged her tired body and went to the cafeteria to eat with Concubine Xiaoluo and the others.

In the cafeteria, they met Ma Sailong, the former head of oil well mining.

When Ma Sailong saw Zuo Ruxue, he didn't say hello, but hurried away with his head down, walked to the farthest corner of the cafeteria, and ate his food alone.

Zuo Ruxue, the imperial concubine and others naturally knew Ma Sailong.

Ma Sailong used to be the person in charge of oil well exploitation in the Oil City. At that time, oil wells were the most important thing in the Oil City.

Therefore, Ma Sailong has a high status in Oil City and can even participate in high-level meetings in Oil City.

But since Ma Sailong disobeyed his uncle's orders, he was dismissed from his post and transferred from oil well mining to the distribution room.

A single misstep led to everlasting regret, and from then on Ma Sailong was excluded from the core management circle of Oil City.

Because he was unwilling to take the risk of extracting oil on rainy days to alleviate the plight of Oil City, he was labeled as selfish and without vision, so few people in Oil City were willing to contact him.

Over time, Marseillelong became like a nobody in the oil city.

The imperial concubine looked at Masailong's figure, with a thoughtful look in her eyes.

For someone like Ma Sailong, whose status and position suddenly decline, would he feel resentful and do something that threatens the safety of the oil city?

However, the imperial concubine only thought about it for a moment and felt that it was unlikely.

Although Ma Sailong is not as glorious as before, he has no worries about food and clothing now. If he gets caught doing something wrong, he will definitely be dead.

In addition, she remembered that Ma Sailong had several relatives in the oil city who were weak points.

"What are you looking at, Concubine?" Zuo Ruxue patted Concubine's shoulder, "Don't be in a daze, hurry up and move forward, we are in line."

The imperial concubine quickly withdrew her gaze, took a few steps forward, and caught up with the people in front who were queuing for food.

"Were you looking at Marseille just now?" Zuo Ruxue asked.

There was some disdain in her tone. "Even after he made a mistake like that, the minister still allowed him to continue working in Oil City. That's already good enough for him!"

The imperial concubine smiled bitterly and said, "I'm not looking at him. Let's finish eating and go back to rest. I didn't sleep well last night, and I was sleepy on the road today."

"Why? What happened last night?" Zuo Ruxue asked.

The imperial concubine opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but in the end it turned into two words.

"fine."

She had been feeling uneasy and nervous these past two days, but she didn't know what she was worried about.

I just feel inexplicably uneasy.
