Volume 2 Chapter 750 New Trouble
Chapter 750 New Trouble
The fleet was driving on the river, just entering the Yangtze River, and there were seven or eight cargo ships parked at the barge dock on the river at the exit. The cargo ships were all bulk cargo ships, loaded with sand, loaded with coal, and loaded with containers and steel building materials of.
The first time he saw these ships, Zhang Xiaoqiang knew that he had discovered a second hidden warehouse. The first hidden warehouse was the highway, and the second hidden warehouse was the entire Yangtze River.
Compared with road transportation and aircraft transportation, water transportation has too many advantages. The time is not slow, the transportation volume is large, and the cost is relatively low. The entire Yangtze River itself is a busy cargo hub. Countless cargo ships shuttle throughout the entire Yangtze River to There are countless cargo terminals and container terminals along the way to the sea.
The cool breeze on the river made everyone feel a rare sense of relief. Zhang Xiaoqiang looked at the map in his hand and pondered. From the map, although they walked by water, they only traveled one-third of the way in total. It was night in the middle of the night, and they couldn't reach the shipyard no matter what, and the top priority was to find a safe camp to settle down.
Zhang Xiaoqiang knows that there are many sandbars on the Yangtze River. The sandbars are surrounded by the river. Except for local zombies, no other zombies can go to the sandbars. Maybe the sandbars are a good place to stay. Of course, we need to do something in the few hours before that. What.
There is a pier at the exit of Changgang. The pier area is not small, and there are not many buildings. There are piles of sand piles like hills, and pebbles of all sizes are scattered throughout the pier area. I saw piles of piles of various building materials.
Relatively speaking, the wharf area can be regarded as a relatively safe area, but unfortunately, it is far from meeting Zhang Xiaoqiang's requirements. He needs ships parked beside the pier barges. Zhang Xiaoqiang's fleet seems to be quite large, but unfortunately the boats are too large. Small, the people on the boat were densely packed, and they had to pile up all kinds of ammunition and supplies. Even sitting on the boat, they were exhausted to the limit.
The bulk carrier parked next to the barge was relatively large. Compared with Zhang Xiaoqiang and the others who modified the boats with various small boats, they looked like monsters lying in front of them. Explorer 001 slowly approached the cargo ship. Among the seven or eight ships, there were cargo ships. There are four, most of which are coal, one is filled with pointed pebbles, and a single barge is parked next to a sharp-bottomed oil tanker. Thin pipes run all over it.
Zhang Xiaoqiang's target is all the ships. Since he wants to do it, he simply catches them all at once. He stands at the bow and watches the ships approaching. Standing beside him are Huangquan Chen Ye and five search team members. The team followed Huang Quan's wishes. Zhang Xiaoqiang didn't need to do anything for this operation. Huang Quan was responsible for everything. He began to learn to consider the overall situation.
"Bump..." The ship collided and was still shaking. The team members jumped onto the opposite ship vigorously, and a figure soared into the sky. Chen Ye, holding the Jingwei sword, passed over the heads of everyone and landed firmly on the opposite side. On the ship's side, the one-foot-wide ship's side didn't even vibrate or shake.
Chen Ye was the last to arrive first, and rushed towards the deck building with the Jingwei sword in hand, followed by the search team with swords and shields behind her, but the actual commander Huang Quan fell behind.
Zhang Xiaoqiang stood on the front deck looking towards Huang Quan and the others, and involuntarily grabbed the trigger of the anti-aircraft machine gun. Unexpected accidents may happen at any time. Even if it is sure, Zhang Xiaoqiang dare not be careless. habits and instincts.
Seven people rushed into the deck building one after another, and Huang Quan ran out and waved to Zhang Xiaoqiang when the time was running out. Zhang Xiaoqiang wondered, is there something strange about such a dilapidated boat?
The front of the big ship has been facing the crowd, and it looks intact on the outside. When entering the bridge inside, a huge hole can see the river surface at the stern clearly. The shape of a camel's back, the iron pillars are intertwined, and the layers of iron floors are twisted and bent, like a torn folding fan, or like a twisted ghost claw.
The huge hole is on the wall behind the stairs. The ship deck building is made of thick wood and iron sheets. The iron sheets and planks that were originally embedded together are cracked, deformed, and broken wood dregs are scattered all over the ground. The open iron sheet was rolled into a flower roll, and the red, green, and yellow wires were twisted and twisted on the floor, and the countless wire ends made people dazzled.
"When..." Zhang Xiaoqiang kicked away the small metal box in front of him, stepped on the messy pieces of wood, bypassed the tangled wires, reached the wall, and stretched out his head to look out of the hole. Just as he stretched out his head, a gust of cool wind As the wind blows, there is a unique fishy smell of river water in the wind. The deck behind the stern and the turbulent river not far away come into my eyes.
The rear deck was covered with dust, a thick drag mark from the hole went through the entire deck and fell to the center of the river, the wires were entangled and dragged to the outside, along the drag marks extended to the river surface, the boat fluctuated on the river surface , The dragging wires also twisted on the deck with the ups and downs of the ship, as if they were alive.
"Did you find anything unusual when you came in?"
Zhang Xiaoqiang stepped back, straightened up and asked everyone present, his fingers were still stroking the broken hole, measuring the thickness of the wall.
Huang Quan shook his head, they saw the huge hole when they got into the hull, he also stretched out his head to take a look like Zhang Xiaoqiang before, he went back outside when he felt something was wrong, and informed Zhang Xiaoqiang.
Zhang Xiaoqiang didn't ask any more questions, and looked up at the direction of the second floor above his head. Although the stairs were rolled up into scrap iron, the second-floor building seemed to be intact. When Zhang Xiaoqiang was thinking about whether to go up and have a look, Chen Ye spoke.
"I didn't see any zombies when I came in. There are fragments of clothes here, and there should be zombies too. It is not ruled out that the zombies fell into the water outside, but I also found this thing."
Chen Ye handed over a palm-sized scale to Zhang Xiaoqiang's hand. The scale was blue-black, dull, rhombus-shaped, with smooth corners, no edge on the side, and light in texture. It felt like nothing in the hand. Try it Toughness, but found that the material of the scales is not bad, the hardness itself is very high, and the toughness is also very strong. Even if Zhang Xiaoqiang folded the scales in half to an angle of 30 degrees, the scales could not break. use.
"Bang bang..." Zhang Xiaoqiang flicked the scales with his fingers, and made a few muffled sounds like bouncing on cardboard. Then Zhang Xiaoqiang put the scales in his pocket, took out the walkie-talkie and issued an order:
"Attention everyone... Observe the river surface and the ship's side at any time, all personnel are prepared for first-level battles, and fire at me as soon as they see something wrong..."
The cargo ships and barges parked in the dock area were all attacked by unknown mutant beasts. This unknown aquatic mutant beast didn't seem to like to go through the main entrance, and almost all of the hulls were wrung out by it. The empty ship on the farthest edge showed no signs of being attacked, perhaps because there were no zombies on the ship itself.
Zhang Xiaoqiang stood on the top of the driver's cab, looking towards the river, hundreds of long drag marks dragged out deep marks on the ground by the river, Zhang Xiaoqiang's scalp felt a little numb, he didn't know it was a mutant The beasts were left behind by dozens of mutated beasts. Obviously, the Yangtze River is not safe anymore.
