Mecha Star Wars.

Chapter 188 Contact
From the outside, it looks like an ordinary box truck, but when you enter the inside, you find that it is the layout of a caravan.

The space is not too big, but it has everything you need, and there are plenty of places to rest.

There is a double bed at the rear of the car and an extra single bed above it.The table and chairs in the middle have also been lowered long ago to form a double bed.

There is also a bed above the driver's seat.Resting for five people is definitely enough.

There were also a lot of convenient food in the car, mainly for Lin Fan.

The current standby time of Xingchen has remained stable at just over 2 hours.However, after experiments, it was found that if you eat enough food, you can also temporarily extend a certain period of time.

Therefore, Cui Yan, who understands the situation, specially prepared so much food and put it in the car, so that Xingchen can last a little longer on this mission.

After Song Ren got into the car, he saw a note on the cooking table next to him. He knew it was the contact person Cui Yan had mentioned, so he dialed the number directly.

"Hello, hello." After a few rings, the phone was picked up.A sonorous and powerful male voice came from the receiver.

"Hello, this is the mecha team of the 800 Research Institute. I am the captain Song Ren." Song Ren turned the co-pilot backwards and sat down.

"Hello, Captain Song." The voice on the other side was obviously relieved, "I'm Cen Fangyuan, the commander in chief of the fire scene."

Because the wildfire persisted for a long time, the superior sent a special confidential secretary to take over the scene.Cen Fangyuan, who had rich experience in affairs, was sent here just like that.

He arrived at the scene this morning.After learning about the specific situation, he realized that the fire was more serious than he had imagined.

The wildfires in the camera may not look that serious, but at close range, they are simply terrible.

Before the fire started, a lot of thick smoke and black fog could be seen in the city, drifting in the sky.The closer you get to the scene, the heavier the smoke, and you can even feel the hot and dry breath in the air.

The firefighters and forest rangers at the scene were exhausted after several days of continuous fighting.Many people collapsed to the ground, and some still insisted on continuing to fight the fire.

After prolonged high temperature and smoke, these people were all black from top to bottom, and their original color could not be seen, and many of them also suffered from heatstroke.

More and more people spontaneously participated in the rescue.

But because they have not received professional training, in order to protect their lives, it is impossible for them to enter the fire scene and participate in fire fighting.

At the same time, due to the rugged mountain road, the car could not go up, and a large amount of supplies were stranded at the foot of the mountain.

Enthusiastic citizens found an opportunity to help, and they carried what they needed up the mountain little by little with their hands on their shoulders.

Cen Fangyuan made a decisive decision and sent a request to the surrounding fire departments for help, which was quickly responded.However, due to the distance between the distances, the rescue force did not arrive so quickly...

The damn wind is getting stronger.

The fire on this side had just burst into flames, and it started to burn again next to it, which felt endless.

Those who fought were already exhausted, they were just beating mechanically...

Fortunately, in the afternoon, some firefighters from other places arrived and began to provide support.They controlled the fire in time to prevent it from spreading in a large area.

At this time, the burning area had reached 60 square kilometers, and the fire was still spreading at a speed of [-] meters per hour.

Although hundreds of firefighters were dispatched, it was still a drop in the bucket in front of such a large fire area.

The water tank carried by the fire-fighting drone was useless at all. In the evening, several helicopters and amphibious aircraft were called in to draw water from the river and splash it back and forth, which had a certain effect.

But because it takes a long time in the middle, the efficiency is not very high.

And as it gets dark, visibility gets low, and the plane can't continue to operate at night...

When Cen Fangyuan received the order to quickly put out the fire, he truthfully reported the plight to his superiors.

He said that with the current efficiency, it is no problem to put out the fire, but the speed must not be much faster.

But the superior gave him a shot in the arm, saying that he would send high-tech mechas to help put out the fire.These mechs have the ability to resist fire and high temperature, as well as mechanical assistance, which will greatly accelerate their movement.

However, since such mechamen are the product of secret research, they are still unknown to outsiders.If it wasn't for the fire, it wouldn't have been dispatched.

Therefore, Cen Fangyuan must do a good job of connecting: when the other party arrives, dismiss the people and reduce the number of staff present.The number of pieces reduced by witnesses.

As the latest and highest technological product of the country, at present, the less people know about it, the better.

Cen Fangyuan didn't know how powerful these mechs were, but he believed in the orders of his superiors and quickly adjusted the deployment of personnel.All the local firefighters were withdrawn, leaving only some of the field firefighters who just went up in the afternoon to continue working.

At the same time, special staff were dispatched to set up fences at the foot of the mountain to intercept the people who were transporting supplies up.

Because they cannot directly explain the reasons, many people do not understand what is going on.Many people even posted a video saying that the authorities would give up fighting the fire, and the public opinion on the Internet was extremely chaotic for a while.

Cen Fangyuan can't control that much, he needs to ensure that there are as few people on the scene as possible.As long as the fire is extinguished, public opinion naturally need not worry.

In the messy command tent, he received a call from Song Ren. For him, it was tantamount to hearing the fairy voice from heaven.

"Commander Cen, our convoy has already set off. There are five mechas in total, and they will arrive at the scene in three hours." Song Ren conveyed his message clearly, "Our mechas are transported by box trucks, so the distance from the fire The nearest parking lot needs to be cleared at least 1.5 kilometers away."

"Team Song, don't worry, it's ready. Unrelated personnel will be isolated two kilometers away." Cen Fangyuan replied, "What else do you need?"

"The specific situation of the fire and the current fire fighting plan, how can we cooperate." Song Ren said, "If we communicate clearly now, we can work immediately after getting off the car, saving time."

It's a three-hour drive, not too long or too short.Song Ren asked the others to rest, and he sat in the co-pilot to listen to the preliminary cooperation intention.

Cen Fangyuan was also unambiguous, and quickly synchronized the data in his hand to Song Ren. "Our current problem is that we don't have enough manpower. The length of the fire line is roughly estimated to have reached four kilometers. The water can't come up. It's really not enough to rely on firefighters alone. We need to dig fire barriers faster, and we also need a lot of water. Extinguishing."

"Understood." Song Ren nodded, "My understanding is that after we pass by, we need to quickly dig a fire barrier on the outer edge of the fire line, and then use a lot of water to put out the fire, right?"

"Yes, but it's not easy." Cen Fangyuan said in a deep voice, "Forty to 60 meters of forest fire breakouts will be useful. According to the current fire situation, even if we only clear the downwind area, it will be quite a large scale. In addition The wind direction has changed wildly in the past few days, the north wind blows today, and the south wind may blow tomorrow, and it is too late in practice.”

"Not to mention the water for fire fighting." Cen Fangyuan thought of the situation in the afternoon, shook his head and said, "In the afternoon we used a plane to load water from the river, but due to the load limit, we can only bring 12 tons of water back and forth in a few seconds. It’s over. Of course it’s useful, but it’s not enough…”

"I see. Don't worry." Song Ren comforted him first, and then said, "We need some equipment, please prepare it for us."

"What is it, tell me." After hearing this, Cen Yuanfang quickly pulled out a piece of paper and prepared to record it.

"Engineering shovels are definitely needed. I'm not sure about the wear and tear at that time. Please help us prepare at least 20 brand new engineering shovels, attach a fixed rope, and put them in a conspicuous position in the parking lot."

"Okay, this is no problem." Cen Yuanfang showed the note in his hand to the assistant next to him, who immediately nodded and went down to prepare, "The engineering shovel will be there when you arrive, is there anything else?"

"Large containers are needed to hold water, the bigger the better." Song Ren said again.

"Container?" Cen Fangyuan was taken aback, "The bigger the better? You want to use mechas to fetch water and put out fires? Is there no load limit?"

"No." Song Ren glanced at Lin Fan who was resting on the single bed in the parking space with his eyes closed. "Don't worry about the load limit. Please find the largest water storage container. It doesn't matter if there are some leaks. It should be large enough to carry the load. We will Take care of the rest."

"Okay." Cen Fangyuan was a little uncertain, but still chose to believe, "I'm going to look for it and get back to you as soon as possible."

In an emergency, there was no time to exchange pleasantries, so I hung up the phone and asked my assistant to find something.

"Container? Water storage? Bigger?" The people at the table frowned.The aircraft's water tank is big enough, but it can't be removed for use.And listening to the meaning there, it seems that it is not enough.

"Leader, I have an idea." An operator weakly raised his hand.

"Say it!" Cen Fangyuan frowned.

"Container...is it okay?"
