After only eight days of training, the shrill alarm sounded throughout the training ground, accompanied by the loudspeaker announcement:
"All transporters, please go to the assembly point immediately. All transporters, please go to the assembly point immediately!"
Liao Jingwei and Lian Feiguang looked at each other and started running instinctively.
All the other people passing by made way for them.
People looked at them with a hint of envy on their faces.
There are still some concerns.
Within less than thirty seconds, everyone lined up at the designated location.
Although the training time is a little shorter.
But with everyone working very hard, there is already some unique temperament.
"Put on your equipment and get on the bus according to your groups!" The person in charge came over and waved his hand. "Time is urgent. We'll talk about the details on the way."
That is, the words had just fallen.
The ground suddenly began to shake slightly.
It wasn't very strong, but everyone's expression changed.
earthquake!
They are in Yuli Province, which is one province away from the earthquake zone. How could the news have reached them?
"Hurry up." The person in charge's expression did not change. "Let alone a small earthquake, even if it is a big earthquake, we have to set off!"
"Yes! Archer Team!" everyone shouted in unison.
The person in charge is named Gong Wenbin, and he is the one who trained everyone during this period.
Liao Jingwei and others didn't say much and immediately rushed to the equipment area. Two people worked together to put on protective clothing weighing 300 kilograms. If there were no exoskeletons, ordinary people would not even be able to walk in such clothes.
Liao Jingwei and Lian Feiguang are in the same team.
At the same time, they also have a team leader, a 37-year-old veteran driver named Zhuo Hong.
"Captain Zhuo." Liao Jingwei waited until he got on the bus before he had time to ask, "Captain Zhuo, you only saw us newcomers just now. Have all the transporters in the factory been assigned?"
"They all still have to carry out normal transportation tasks." Zhuo Hong took a puff of his cigarette, extinguished it and threw it into the trash can inside the car. "Ours should be a special mission, which will be introduced soon."
Just as Zhuo Hong said, after just a moment, Gong Wenbin's voice came from everyone's ear communicator.
"Just ten minutes ago, an underground earthquake swept across most of our country, and roads in many places were damaged. We are only on the edge of the country, and not many places were affected. However, a transport team in a nearby place still encountered a landslide. Please listen to this audio clip."
Soon, an audio clip was played.
A weak voice came.
"This is the 18th Transport Team of the Changhai Food Processing Plant, number NEI345, ahem. Our mission is to transport a batch of emergency food to the Third New Town of Yuli. We encountered a landslide on Section 124 and fell to the bottom of the mountain. Apart from me, only two people retained signs of life. The food did not leave the carriage. We request emergency support from the nearest source."
Liao Jingwei's heart tightened.
This happened before the previous felt earthquake, and they had already rolled to the bottom of the mountain.
What if the earthquake just now caused a secondary landslide?
Even landslides.
Maybe both the people and the cars will be buried directly.
"This is the situation. We lost contact with the enemy five minutes ago. We don't know the specific situation of the target location. We called up the enemy's protective clothing data. The vital signs are weak. Our mission is to take away the food reserves in the seven vehicles first! Set off immediately!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhuo Hong ignited the engine and the whole truck made a loud roar.
This is a large truck that has been specially processed.
Now it looks more like a large armored vehicle, including all the windows. Everything is covered with new alloy, and the tires are equipped with alloy tracks.
But even so, they could only barely move forward in the hurricane.
"Channel 2 is open!"
“Number three.”
Passageways opened one after another, and in an instant, the entire car was filled with the sound of fierce wind, even covering up the roar of the engine. Countless crackling sounds could be heard hitting the metal shell, and even the car body began to shake.
Liao Jingwei knew that they had entered a hurricane environment.
He quickly put on a glass helmet which had a certain soundproofing effect.
The sound suddenly became much better.
"What do you think? Are you scared?" Zhuo Hong controlled the steering wheel, stepped on the accelerator, and the car rushed out directly.
"You won't be afraid if you drive carefully." Liao Jingwei stared at the screen nervously.
There are no windows, so moving forward depends on some small cameras.
However, it was completely dark outside. Even in the places illuminated by strong light, one could only see countless debris moving at a very fast speed.
This visibility is inherently dangerous.
So I didn’t dare drive too fast.
"I tell you, driving requires courage and carefulness. It is a little difficult, but if I die and you are still alive, you will have to drive the car back. Watch my operation carefully." Zhuo Hong said.
"I understand." Liao Jingwei and Lian Feiguang looked at him nervously.
At the same time, the radio channel in the car also began broadcasting emergency news.
“The impact of the underground shock wave just now has been preliminarily estimated.
One hundred and seventy-eight roads have been damaged across the country. The damaged roads will be updated on the transporter map in half an hour, and alternative routes will be planned.
The main damaged roads are concentrated in Beixiang and Zhouchen provinces, which is expected to affect the construction speed of seven new cities.
But now the transport force has been fully mobilized, and thirty association transport planes have been dispatched to the emergency zone."
Everyone who heard the news felt a slight sinking in their hearts.
The construction speed of seven cities has been affected.
And this is just the first wave of major earthquakes.
It can even be regarded as just a small test before the enemy launches a full-scale attack.
Transportation will indeed become an important battlefield.
It even determines the final outcome to a large extent.
now.
Shen Yi was also high in the sky, frowning as he looked at the map projection in front of him.
He can see the whole situation more intuitively here.
The center of the earthquake is still the earthquake zone. Everyone there has been evacuated and it is a completely uninhabited area, so there is no impact. But the problem is that this time the noise is even louder and has affected all nearby areas.
"Transportation will be a big problem." Shen Yi said.
"Captain." Ding Xiang's virtual projection suddenly said, "Hong Feizhang and others are discussing whether to abandon the new city in the area with inconvenient transportation."
"Give up?" Shen Yi frowned, "But those places, in addition to urban construction, also have production factories, right? Should we give them up as well?"
"But if the situation deteriorates further, this is the trade-off that must be made." Ding Xiang said softly.
