Chapter 162: Firing Cannonballs



It would have been fine if they hadn't discovered it, but since they had, Su Nian and Jing Mo didn't intend to ignore it.

After all, this is not a matter involving just or two people. The convoy is so long and there are so many people. If things really get chaotic, who knows how many innocent people will be injured and killed.

Even if Su Nian was not a saint, she could not just watch so many people die for no reason.

"I'll go down."

Jing Mo was about to get off the car when Su Nian grabbed him and asked, "Why are you getting off?"

"There's no cell phone or walkie-talkie to contact the people ahead. How can I tell the people ahead if I don't go down?"

Su Nian blinked, "Then why don't we just not contact them and use other methods?"

"for example?"

"for example......"

Su Nian directly took out the light artillery shells, opened the car window, and fired a shot to one side.

This cannonball was given by Jing Mo. Needless to say, it is very powerful and has a long range.

A shot was fired and finally exploded fifty meters away from the roadside with a loud bang.

The sudden sound of artillery fire startled the people who were lying in ambush on the roadside and also woke up everyone in the entire convoy.

The survivors hiding in the carriages were trembling and dared not show their heads, but the base commander quickly sent people to search in the direction where the artillery fire was heard, and also sent people to patrol the entire convoy.

Su Nian watched from the car as the robbers waiting on the roadside finally chose to evacuate after being shocked.

They have a lot of people, but compared with the people in the Second Base, they are still dwarfed.

Originally they wanted to take the convoy by surprise, but now the convoy is already on guard, and if they rush out they won't get anything good, so they might as well just evacuate.

Not long after they evacuated, Shen Cheng brought his men to the place where they were ambushing.

From the footprints on the ground, it can be seen that there were originally quite a few people standing here.

Shen Cheng's expression became more serious.

Someone was lying in ambush here before!

Needless to say, the purpose is definitely the convoy!

But now, these people have withdrawn again...

If these people left after hearing the artillery fire, then it can only mean one thing: they were not the ones who fired the artillery fire.

Who could that be?

Could it be that the sound of the artillery was specifically meant to warn them?

Shen Cheng went back to report with doubts and reported all his findings to the base commander.

The base commander pondered for a moment and spoke slowly, "Based on the current situation, someone must have discovered the ambush and made the noise to alert us.

Since this person is unwilling to go on the road, that's fine. We just need to accept his kindness and there's no need to get to the bottom of it and find the person.

Inform the people below that they will not rest tonight, but will travel overnight and try to reach the third base tomorrow."

"yes!"

Shen Cheng took the order and left, asking someone to pass on the message.

After so many days of running-in, the team's mobility is much faster than at the beginning.

In less than half an hour, everyone had received the order, sat in the cars, and the convoy set off again.

In the car at the back, Jing Mo looked at Su Nian helplessly, "You are quite courageous."

Just fire the shells directly.

Su Nian nodded in agreement, "I also think I'm pretty brave.

But the effect of this shell is really good! "

The explosion occurred fifty meters away. The noise was not earth-shaking, but there was real smoke all over the ground.

It’s a pity that it doesn’t look very obvious in this thick fog.

Seeing that Su Nian was very fond of the light artillery shell, Jing Mo said, "The one on the shoulder, if you like it, put a few of them with you."

What Su Nian just released was a long cannon tube. Its shape was somewhat similar to some of the fireworks we set off when we were children, except that the material was different and the tube was thicker.

What Jing Mo was talking about was a cannon barrel that was thicker than Su Nian's waist.

Su Nian thought about the image of herself carrying the cannon barrel, and finally waved her hand, "Not for now."

Su Nian felt that with Jing Mo around, she would have little chance to use that.

The two chatted along the way and ate some snacks in between, so they didn't feel sleepy at all.

Finally, at daybreak, they arrived at the third base.

Because the convoy was too long and Su Nian and his team were at the very end of the convoy, even with his glasses on, Su Nian could not see the walls and gates of the third base.

I didn’t feel anything before I got there, but now that I’m here, I can’t help but feel a little curious.

I don’t know what they were discussing up front, but the convoy didn’t move after it stopped.

After staying up all night, Su Nian felt a little sleepy.

Jing Mo looked at Su Nian and said, "Just take a nap. We are already outside the base now, so nothing will go wrong."

Su Nian nodded, "Then I'll sleep for a while. When I wake up, it'll be my turn to drive."

Su Nian took out his cell phone and set an alarm for one hour.

When you are very sleepy, you can fall asleep in minutes.

Su Nian fell into a deep sleep almost the moment he closed his eyes.

The alarm clock wasn’t loud, but Su Nian woke up immediately anyway.

Su Nian sat up and looked at the time on his phone. Sure enough, an hour had passed.

Maybe it was because I was too sleepy, an hour passed in the blink of an eye, and I didn’t feel anything at all.

Because she didn't get enough sleep, Su Nian's eyes were red and bloodshot.

But despite this, the sleepiness in his eyes was gone.

Su Nian looked at Jing Mo, "Let's change seats, you can take a nap too."

Jing Mo was about to agree when he saw the car in front of him start to move. He smiled and said, "Now that we can get in, we won't sleep for now. We can still sleep after we find a place to stay."

Su Nian looked forward and saw that the car in front was moving slowly forward.

Jing Mo lightly stepped on the accelerator and followed.

Twenty minutes later, Su Nian finally saw the appearance of the third base.

Judging from the color and texture of the city wall alone, it does not look like it was newly built, but rather is full of traces of time.

"This should be the ancient city wall." Su Nian said, "Could it be that the third base is built in the old city?"

Gods all have old towns, Su Nian knew this.

After all, as a tourist destination, although Su Nian had never been there before the end of the world, he had learned a little about it from the Internet.

The old town is not as prosperous as a modern metropolis, and the houses are not that tall. It is filled with various ancient buildings, giving people a very different feeling.

Of course, building the third base here is definitely not just because of this.

As for any other reasons, Su Nian didn’t know for the time being.

After passing through two city gates in succession, we finally arrived at the base. Even though it was broad daylight, the base was still brightly lit.

In the thick fog, with the help of the lights, you can vaguely see the outline of the house.
