Plane Travel Guide

Outside Istanbul, Turkey, Tuesday, October 2013, 10.

After removing the interference, the convoy's journey went much smoother.

There is no logistical pressure, and there is no need to stop in human settlements for supplies; the full-service vehicle has good rest conditions and is not difficult to drive; although the road is covered with ice and snow, the full-service vehicle's characteristics of ignoring environmental impacts have also been brought into full play.

Under the combined effect of many favorable conditions, the number of miles traveled by the team every day has risen sharply.

To everyone's surprise, it took only 3 days to arrive in Istanbul, the former largest city in Turkey.Plane Travel Guide 701

It was originally the capital of the Eastern Roman Empire and the Ottoman Empire. Later, after the Ottoman Empire was defeated in World War I and lost a large amount of land, it became the only European part of Turkey.The Bosporus Strait in Istanbul is the dividing line of the Eurasian continent. After crossing this strait, it will officially enter the Asian continent.

Because it was a long journey from Europe to China by land, Tang Shaozhe would of course choose the shortest route.

After analyzing the map in detail, the route map he set for the convoy was to go east all the way through Istanbul, Turkey, pass through Central Asia and then enter Yumen Province, China.

After seeing this line, many people failed to find any omissions, and finally passed it unanimously.

Of course, few of the Europeans in the team now remember this road.

Thousands of years ago, it was this road that was connecting the entire Eastern and Western civilizations.

It has a glorious history and a prominent reputation. It is through this road that the ceramics, silk, writing, and inventions of the ancient Eastern civilization were passed to the Western world by hardworking and shrewd Arab businessmen, and the inexhaustible wealth of the West also followed. Flowing into the kingdom of the East.At that time, people kindly called this road the Road of Dreams—also known as the Silk Road!

After the development of shipping and air transportation, the ancient Silk Road gradually declined.

But when Tang Shaozhe chose to return to China from Europe by land again, he was surprised to find that he could not bypass the Silk Road at all.This route, which was famous all over the world thousands of years ago, unexpectedly became his only choice without exception.The precipitation of history and the wisdom of the predecessors are shining brightly at this moment.

In Istanbul, the European continent and the Asian continent are only separated by the Bosporus Strait.

The Bosporus Strait is not only the dividing line between the Eurasian continent, but also the main channel of communication between the Black Sea and the Mediterranean Sea.The strait has a total length of 30 kilometers and a water depth of 27.5 to 124 meters. The entire channel is curved and narrow.The widest point in the northeast is 3700 meters, but the narrowest point in the middle is only 747 meters.

Since the strait is the main traffic route connecting the Eurasian continent, the geographical location has extremely strong strategic significance.

In 1968, Turkey built the Bosphorus Bridge at the narrowest point of the strait, which was officially opened to traffic in October 1973.The bridge is 10 meters long, 1560 meters wide, and 33 meters above the sea.There is a white line in the middle of the bridge deck, which belongs to Asia in the east and Europe in the west.Therefore, the bridge is also called the Eurasian Bridge.

By the 80s, due to economic development, the Bosporus Bridge that could pass 6 cars abreast was not enough.So a new Fatih Bridge was built 5 kilometers to the north, which was officially put into use in 1988.All indicators are better than the first bridge connecting Eurasia, and even 8 cars can run in parallel.

On both sides of the bridge, there are expressways extending in all directions, extending to the Eurasian continent in a gentle manner.

As long as they pass the bridge, Tang Shaozhe's plan to lead the team to re-walk the Silk Road to China will be perfect.

The Silk Road Project will save a lot of time and energy, as well as unnecessary trouble, for the entire operation.

But when the team arrived in Istanbul, Turkey, Tang Shaozhe discovered that although his previous experience was at the bottom, he still missed one thing—and it was a rather troublesome thing.

The entire city of Istanbul includes the Bosporus Strait, and the bridge is of course also in the city.But everyone knows that before the Cataclysm, the whole of Istanbul was the center city of Turkey's economy and culture.The city is divided into 12 urban areas, with a total population of nearly 700 million.Plane Travel Guide 701

But Tang Shaozhe forgot that the more prosperous and densely populated cities were before the cataclysm, the more dangerous they are now.

What does a population of nearly 700 million mean after the cataclysm?

Even if only half of them mutate into zombies, there are as many as 350 million.

So after being reminded, Tang Shaozhe looked at Istanbul in front of him with a big head.There are 30 full-time vehicles in the entire fleet, and the current number of people is 520 including Gu Liangbei.Calculated according to the head ratio, wouldn't it mean that each person would have to face 6730 zombies?The number of zombies is 6730 times the number of the team!

Can one person deal with about 1 zombies?

Did you forget to take your "medicine" today?

No matter how good the Yin-Yang Taomu Sword is, it cannot withstand the siege of 300 million zombies.

What's more, the figure of 350 million is still the lowest estimate. Who knows what the situation in Istanbul was like when the catastrophe broke out.It is hard to say whether half of the people escaped.That is to say, there is likely to be a zombie brigade of far more than 350 million in Istanbul now.

More than 350 million zombies?

What an existence that blocks out the sky and the sun!

You must know that the Barbarossa plan against the Soviet Union launched by Hitler during World War II only assembled 190 divisions and 500 million troops.However, those 500 million people were deployed on the vast Soviet-German border, and when they actually entered the territory of the Soviet Union, it was like a handful of popcorn scattered into the sea, completely unable to cause waves.

But in Istanbul, at least 350 million zombies are gathered in a city with an area of ​​only 5220 square kilometers, and there are at least 670 zombies per square kilometer.

"Honey, although we all admit that passing the Bosporus Strait is the shortest land route from Europe to Asia, we have no chance to enter the city of Istanbul at all. Perhaps Istanbul's danger level cannot be ranked among the top ten in the world. Among the dangerous cities, but definitely among the top [-]." Clarinda slowly came to his side.

"Huh? Top ten dangerous cities in the world? What is that?"

Tang Shaozhe, who was suffering from a headache, was taken aback when he heard this unfamiliar term for the first time.

After hearing his rhetorical question, Clarinda remembered that her husband was from the future world, so she explained in detail.

"The world's top ten dangerous cities are a concept recognized by the world after the catastrophe. They are Tokyo in Japan, Mexico City in Mexico, New York in the United States, Mumbai in India, Sao Paulo in Brazil, New Delhi in India, and Calcutta, Buenos Aires in Argentina, Jakarta in Indonesia and Shanghai in China."

"Huh? Why are most of them cities in developing countries? What qualifications do they have to become the top ten dangerous cities in the world?" After asking questions just now, Tang Shaozhe, who remembered Istanbul in front of him, quickly came to his senses and said, "Oh, no, a little Wait, I think I get it, it's the population, right?"

"That's right, dear." Clarinda nodded approvingly, and said approvingly: "After the cataclysm, the degree of danger in every city in the world is proportional to the previous population. Because the worst outbreak of zombie virus, It’s a densely populated metropolis.”

"Tokyo, Japan, has a population of more than 3500 million. The catastrophe has caused at least half of the world's population to mutate into zombies, and the proportion of densely populated cities is even higher." Adam also walked over with a wry smile at some point, saying: "So it's only There are at least 2000 million zombies gathered in Tokyo, no one dares to enter such a city!"

"That's right, even a god-level team doesn't dare to act rashly." Angelina also walked over.

"Hiss!" Tang Shaozhe gasped suddenly.Plane Travel Guide 701

Until now, Tang Shaozhe has truly brought his thinking closer to the human category of the last days of the earth.After all, he still has no experience of living in this special environment, so he didn't take these special factors into it when considering the problem.At this moment, he really realized that even the parallel space-time planes with extremely close time intervals are hugely different from the normal world.

"My fault, this is a problem caused by my poor thinking. I'm sorry everyone, it seems we have to find another way."

"It's okay, honey. We all understand that you are not from this world after all!"

"Detour, this is the only way now!"

To be honest, Tang Shaozhe was really unwilling.

But now, what if you are not reconciled?

So he simply admitted defeat.

"Well, I'm afraid we can only take a detour!"

But some people seem to have a different opinion.

"No, big brother, we may have other options!"

A black-haired girl walked towards the setting sun.
