Three C-130 transport planes rose from the ground and flew north with a large amount of equipment and supplies. They will fly over a distance of more than 2,000 kilometers and enter Baltimore, 50 kilometers north of Washington, the capital of the United States.

Although the earliest C-130 was developed in the 1950s, this medium-sized transport aircraft has been widely used due to its excellent performance during its use in the 1970s and 1980s.

It's not that Zhou Qingfeng doesn't have larger C-17 and C-5 transport aircraft, but in comparison, the C-130, which has a strong field deployment capability, is the main transport aircraft. More than four hours into the flight, three C-130s appeared over Baltimore.

"Sir, we can't land at Baltimore International Airport," the lead pilot reported.

The transport plane fell from the clouds and lowered to a height of five hundred meters. Crew members can visually see the city of Baltimore, which was devastated by the bomb, on the ground. The scorched urban area is full of ruins, without any trace of human activity. At a glance, the ground is full of various collapsed and burned building wreckage.

The runway at Baltimore Airport was also a bunch of obstructions, making it impossible to land. But the great advantage of the Yankees is that the airport is repaired everywhere. Zhou Qingfeng had expected that he might not be able to land directly in Baltimore, so he ordered: "Go to the second backup landing point."

In fact, American big cities have suffered much more nuclear bombs than Zhou Qingfeng imagined. After the three transport planes changed three alternate landing points in a row, they finally landed on a relatively flat road near a small town called 'Mount Airy'.

After landing, an action team of more than forty people got off the plane immediately with various equipment, and began to deploy alerts, and released micro-drones to detect the situation within a certain range nearby.

"Sir, no suspicious targets were found within one kilometer around." Rom immediately reported the situation to Zhou Qingfeng, "This place is about 40 kilometers away from Baltimore, but the nearby roads are blocked by various fleeing vehicles, which makes the Our mobility is greatly affected."

"The situation seems to be much worse than we imagined." In the bitter cold wind, Zhou Qingfeng felt that the temperature near Baltimore was much colder than that in Mexico and Cuba. He stomped on the frozen ground, and looked around to see a scene of decay.

There are bustling cities near Washington DC, and Baltimore has a population of more than two million. After the catastrophe and the landing of the nuclear bomb, a large number of people here fled for their lives, and Americans are extremely dependent on vehicles. Naturally, a large number of vehicles were discarded on the road when they fled.

But now what Zhou Qingfeng saw with his eyes was that there were not only a large number of abandoned vehicles on the road, but also the corpses of various people who had died in various ways. Looking at the overturned vehicles everywhere, he said in a deep voice, "This is simply a big morgue."

Lonely, deserted, except for the cold wind, there is no sound, no sign of life. Zhou Qingfeng's action team was probably the first creature to set foot here in the past six months. Katerina stepped up and said, "The Geiger counter shows that the radiation level here is normal, and you can move freely."

"Where's the water source?"

"Found a pond nearby and I'm sending someone to check it out."

As soon as the two finished speaking, a semi-frozen pond near the landing site suddenly burst into mud waves, and the two soldiers who were in charge of inspecting the water source were shocked. However, a dirty figure unexpectedly appeared in the mud waves, and it rushed towards a soldier viciously, biting his thigh.

Ah..., the miserable screams sounded in the cold wind, no one thought that there would be people in the icy water, and there were more than one person. As the mud wave got bigger and bigger, more than a dozen figures emerged from the pond.

"Damn it, shoot!" Seeing that the wounded soldiers were about to be dragged into the pond in panic and distress, Zhou Qingfeng quickly took off the electromagnetic rifle carried behind his back, took aim and fired a line of fire. The 2mm EC shells were quite dense, and the several figures who rushed out afterward seemed to have been hit hard, and four or five of them fell down immediately.

But the remaining figures rushed forward without fear of death,

Still trying to drag the wounded soldier away. The wounded soldier was completely unable to maintain stability, and finally gritted his teeth to give up struggling, drew the pistol on his leg and fired continuously.

At this time, more and more soldiers of the action team came to their senses, several of them came forward with guns to attack, and beat back the remaining raid figures with a snap. A few more people stepped forward and dragged the wounded soldier back from the edge of the pond.

"Don't mess around, be careful." Zhou Qingfeng shouted and rushed to the wounded soldier, cursing in shock, "What the **** is this?"

A skeleton-like human body was lying on the ground, half of its body was smashed to pieces. But it was still alive, still biting the wounded man's thigh in its mouth until it swallowed a large piece of meat.

The wounded's thigh was bloody and bloody, and he kept screaming, and the medical soldiers rushed up to treat him. But the skeleton-like thing became even more excited after swallowing a piece of meat, propped up the stump with both hands and crawled towards the other soldiers quickly.

chug chug.... After a burst of gunfire, it didn't stop until the head of the skinny skeleton was completely smashed. And by the pond, there were several terrifying monsters that emerged from the water and hid in the muddy water after being shot a few times.

"What the hell!" Zhou Qingfeng was so angry that he suffered a loss just after landing. He took off a high-explosive grenade and threw it into the pond. In the mud waves that exploded, it was clear that there were at least a dozen more. This kind of neither human nor ghost thing hides inside.

"Fuck, what the hell is this?" Katerina was also taken aback by this monster-like thing. In fact, all the soldiers felt inexplicable fear of this kind of thing, and they were all horrified.

"It should be human mutants nicknamed 'zombies'. There are so many of them here. They survived hiding in the icy muddy water. It's too difficult." Zhou Qingfeng also encountered this thing for the first time, but from the "Enclave" According to some internal news, the North American continent has been severely damaged by various biological variants.

"Fly the wounded back to Havana, and we will stay." Zhou Qingfeng could only bite the bullet and ordered calmly: "Warning to all team members, be careful of the weird things here. The 'zombies' were leaked after the nuclear bomb attack The human beings modified by biological and chemical weapons have extremely tenacious vitality.

'Zombies' have slow movement speed, poor strength, and weak perception, but their body temperature is very low, making it difficult for infrared night vision devices to detect them. They are patiently hiding in places you can't imagine waiting to launch an attack, and then it is forbidden to act alone, and you must be more vigilant. "

Zhou Qingfeng also had no particularly effective way to deal with these terrifying mutants. He could only arrange for 'Dog Meat' to strengthen the investigation of the surrounding area, relying on 'Dog Meat''s keen observation and analysis ability to find the target.

"Sir, we have to find a place to settle down, and it is best to find a local as a guide." After the attack, Rom expanded the drone's search area and finally made an important discovery, "It is three kilometers away from us. There are signs of human activity, maybe we should go and have a look."

Zhou Qingfeng's face was also ashen, and he thought to himself: "Damn it, it seems that this mission is not as easy as imagined, and we must first find a base to settle down." (To be continued.)
