Doomsday Commander.

Chapter 90 Air Inspection

The completion of the explosion made Tang Zheng refreshed once.

It is really enjoyable to spend more than 100 million funds at once.

But after enjoying the fun, problems followed.

The funds are almost zero, and the food reserves are not much.

Tang Zheng's team had collected supplies from Tailai Town before, and the food reserves were still sufficient for the time being.

But there is an essential difference between a company and a battalion, and now the food issue must be taken seriously.

Tang Zheng's troops were not idle either, he immediately ordered several field companies under him to go out immediately to kill zombies and collect supplies in the surrounding villages and towns.

Tang Zheng himself, on the other hand, focused on collecting funds.

In the process of collecting food, the soldiers will also collect some funds, but the amount is not too much for today's battalion size.

Tang Zheng needs more funds, after all, a tank and a plane cost tens of thousands now.

Tang Zheng is ready to look for a gold shop.

In the Hanyue Empire, gold stores are generally found in counties, and some towns also have them, but they are all developed towns located in coastal areas, such as the towns in West Sichuan, Lianghe, Grassland, and Mobei.

So Tang Zheng could only target the county seat.

There are two counties within the radar range, namely Qingquan and Caiqi.

Tang Zheng carefully inspected these two county towns through the radar.

There are many jewelry stores in the county, but they are basically located in the prosperous area in the middle of the county. If you want to go there, you can only attack by force.

The population of these two counties is more than 500 million, and it will be very difficult to attack by force.

Of course, it doesn't mean that you can't play. In the past, you couldn't play in the company level. Now that you have become a battalion, you can still get down slowly. It's just that the process is relatively long.

Tang Zheng wanted to search again, to see if there was a relatively easy place to fight.

But there are no other counties within the radar range, so if you want to find them, you have to go out and have a look.

Tang Zheng looked at the transport helicopter on the side, and decided to go out for a trip.

Anyway, there is a plane, just stroll around and have a look, one day is almost enough.

After making the decision, Tang Zheng led the team to board the plane.

Hu Yuhang, the new army aviation company commander, opened the cabin door of the transport plane, lowered the ladder, and invited Tang Zheng to board the plane.

Following Tang Zheng, there were also Ji Yuntian, Ning Yuwei, Guo Yun, Wu Di, He Xue, Lin Feifei, and 24 strengthened three-star fighters.

Tang Zheng's guard squad only had eight soldiers, but company commander Luo Fei still suggested that Tang Zheng should recruit some elite three-star fighters from the field troops to supplement the guard squad, after all his safety was the most important thing.

After thinking about it, Tang Zheng agreed, and transferred two more squads of fighters to make the guard platoon barely take shape.

The soldiers in the guard platoon can be said to be all elites. Ji Yuntian and Ning Yuwei are about to be upgraded to two stars. This is the result of their long-term presence by Tang Zheng's side and they don't have many chances to fight.

After boarding the plane, Tang Zheng was shocked by the spacious cabin.

There are 46 seats in two rows in this cabin, and there is a large cargo compartment, so there is no problem in transporting people and supplies.

More than [-] people sat in, and it was not crowded at all.

The crew members invited Tang Zheng to enter the cockpit, where he could have a better view of the ground situation.

"General, where are we going?" Hu Yuhang asked.

"Well, let's go to Shuanglin County in the southwest."

"Okay, let's go then."

The propellers on the plane started to rotate and slowly lifted into the sky.

The huge propeller drives the airflow, and the ground is blown with smoke and dust.

Sitting in the plane, Tang Zheng could see the water ripples on the edge of the pool not far away, and Tangtang poked his head out of the water, watching the plane take off into the sky and go away.

The plane flew out of Chasing Light City and entered the southern plain area.

The south of the city is a plain with a gentle slope, about five kilometers, and there is a small hill where there is a dense forest area.

Flying through this forest area, the Fengming River made a turn here, and began to turn towards the southeast.

The plane flew southwest, higher and higher.

When the flight reached an altitude of about 300 meters, Tang Zheng didn't let the plane continue to rise, because some things could not be seen clearly when flying too high.

Moreover, this height happened to be within the range of his own portable radar.

Flying at a semi-low altitude all the way, he just looked down from the cockpit.

Mountains, rivers, terrain and landforms can be seen in a panoramic view, which is more intuitive than that seen on the radar.

When passing through some towns, the situation on the ground is also unbearable to look directly at.

On those roads, there are still some wobbly people walking around, but those are no longer human.

Even on the radar, Tang Zheng couldn't see a single survivor in those rural towns.

Instead, in some wilderness, occasionally some light spots representing survivors appear.

Because of the short distance, when Tang Zheng's plane passed by, he could even see those survivors staring blankly at the plane with disbelief on their faces.

Some survivors waved their arms and shouted loudly at the plane.

"You need to act faster. It's already September, and the weather is getting cold very quickly. If there is no one to rescue these survivors in the wild, I'm afraid it will be difficult for them to survive this winter."

This year's temperature is very abnormal. In previous years, there was still residual heat in September in this area. No matter how bad it was, it would be the time of autumn.

But this year is different, there are fallen leaves in Zhuguang City today.

Tang Zheng was almost certain that today's winter would be an unprecedented cold winter in recent years.

These survivors can still barely survive in the wild, but in winter, if there is no rescue, most of them may not be able to survive.

The plane did not stop because it encountered some sporadic survivors, and continued to fly according to the established goal.

At a speed of [-] kilometers per hour, in half an hour, it has already flown out of the radar range of Chasing Light City.

After flying for about 10 minutes, a county town appeared ahead.

That was Shuanglin County, a county seat at the northern end of Fengcheng.

Tang Zheng was in the air, and he could see a bright color in the city.

It was a river flowing down the Yunshan Mountains, passing through the county town.

"Lower the height a little bit, idling around the county town."

The plane lowered to an altitude of about 200 meters and flew over the county town.

At this height, it is like looking down from the top of a skyscraper, and the scenery is clearer and more intuitive.

Tang Zheng asked everyone to pay as much attention as possible to see where the gold shop in this county is located.

But it is easy to think, but the actual operation is not so simple.

It is difficult to see the words on the plaque from a high altitude, even with a telescope, it is like finding a needle in a haystack.

Instead, some zombies spotted the plane and roared into the sky.

After Tang Zheng looked at it for a while, his eyes felt sore.

"I'm so tired. It would be great if I could find someone to ask."

At this time, the captain said to Tang Zheng: "General, when we flew over the edge of the county, I saw a small survival base in the urban-rural fringe area, and there are some zombies around, should we go over and have a look?"

"Okay, let's go and have a look, and find a survivor to ask, it's much faster than our search."

Tang Zheng didn't report too much hope, after all, the situation in each county is similar.

If Shuanglin couldn't find a suitable gold store to start with, he would go back to Qingquan County.

I can't eat it for a month, but I can't eat it for two or three months. I hope this winter will not come too fast.

The plane turned around and returned to the sky above the urban-rural fringe.

Soon, Tang Zheng discovered the survival base mentioned by the captain.

It seems to be a large yard for purchasing grain. There are some machinery inside, drying equipment, scales, conveyors, etc., but most of them should be scrapped.

There are also several large granaries here, which are considered the most precious things.

At the gate of the yard, a sentry tower was built, and there were about a hundred people in the yard and the house.

The protection of this yard is not very solid, and thick sandbags are piled up in front of the original iron gate.

Outside the sandbag, there were some zombies roaring, and there seemed to be about two or three hundred of them.

One of the tall armored zombies was also wandering outside the yard, trying to find a gap to enter the yard and enjoy the feast inside.

And a group of people are guarding inside the wall at this moment, guarding on the sandbags.

The sandbags were piled up to a height of more than four meters, and it was really not easy for zombies to climb up, but those people did not dare to be careless at all, holding crude weapons and guarding them all the time.

Their weapons were indeed crude enough. Except for one man holding a double-barreled shotgun, the remaining long-range weapons were mainly bows and crossbows.

Moreover, there are not many bows and crossbows, only about six or seven, and most of the people are holding self-made spears in their hands.

Some zombies tried to climb up the pile of sandbags, and these people stabbed them with spears. The crossbows over there rarely fired. As for the shotgun, it was more like a decoration, and they would never shoot easily.

Everyone's eyes were almost focused on the group of corpses below.

No one noticed the helicopter passing by in the haze overhead.

"Hurry up! There are zombies coming up."

"It's hard to handle. Some zombies were killed, but they became their stepping stones. The height of this sandbag is not enough."

"What's wrong with that big zombie? It can't move at all. It can't be pierced by crossbow arrows, and it can't be pierced by bullets. It can scratch the sandbags with one claw. Our supply of sandbags is mainly caused by it."

"It's really impossible to shoot. If you can kill one, it counts as one."

"No, bullets can't kill the iron armor. It's even more troublesome if ordinary zombies are killed. We can only take turns to keep them from entering the gate. More than 100 of us have been exhausted for almost a week. I don't believe they can't be exhausted."

"What about the brain? Zombies don't know how to get tired. Although we have more than 100 people, half of them are old and weak. If we continue, we will not be able to hold on anymore."

One of the leading mature men sighed: "It's over! If this continues for at most two days, everyone will have no strength to fight against the zombies. As long as the door is broken, everyone will be fed to the zombies."

"What should we do, Brother Yue? Otherwise, let's run away."

"Run? Where can we run to? This world is full of these ghost things, the mobile phone can't be used, there is no goal or direction, and we can live until now, don't we all rely on the food in the yard What do we eat when we run out? Even if we can still run, what about the others? Throw it away?"

Everyone stopped talking, this was almost a dead end, even if they could run out, how long could they stay in the wilderness?

Just when everyone was at a loss and almost desperate, a gust of wind descended from the top of their heads.

Chu Chu Chu ~ ~!

The huge wind fell, making everyone unstable and unable to open their eyes.

Everyone still raised their heads reluctantly and looked towards the sky.

It was a scene I will never forget.
