Two hours later, we were at Zhongzhou Tribe’s Yangshan Airport, which was a former high-speed service area.
Hu Biao looked at the team members who were galloping over, shouting "Drive, drive!" and vigorously slapping the butts of the horses under him.
Suddenly, my anxious heart finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Knowing that with the arrival of ten people including Yang Dongli, warehouse manager, AT, dichlorvos, Hanshuang, etc., the team members were basically ready, they could finally officially set off to rescue the two unlucky guys, Xu Feng and the translator.
As for the fact that these people appeared on war horses, Hu Biao didn't care at all.
Indeed, this matter is not worth mentioning at all.
When I came to the doomsday world last time, the sub-base in southern Fujian recruited an indigenous leader named Huang Ma. In order to express his sincerity, didn't he send a group of war horses?
Some of them are in poor condition and are now directly used as animal-drawn buses on several routes in the tribal headquarters area.
Some of the best ones are reserved for stud horses in breeding farms.
That’s right! In the breeding farms of the Zhongzhou tribe, now there is not only the breeding of horses; in fact, there are also the breeding of chickens, ducks, geese and other poultry, pigs and sheep and other livestock.
Faced with the ridiculous situation of being unable to bring seeds over in the modern dimension, Hu Biao and the others came up with some retro methods.
Specifically, they tried to catch some live wild animals, such as pheasants, and directly cut off their wing tips and claws, and began to tame the wild animals from generation to generation.
Just like our ancestors did for thousands of years, they tried to slowly train some non-wild breeds.
After the above arrangements, more than 50 of that batch of war horses were left alive. With a goal that could not be wasted, a small experimental mountain cavalry unit was formed.
Today is already the tenth day since Hu Biao and the others came here.
Those things that needed to be dealt with urgently were almost settled in the first few days; so the team members who had a little free time went to practice riding skills one after another.
The main reason is that no one can be 100% sure of what the next system mission will be.
Maybe this kind of riding skills will come in handy in the next mission; based on the same principle, subjects such as armed swimming and diving have also been developed one after another.
Therefore, after a few days, it is hard to say how good the riding skills of the team members are, but at least they can run on their horses.
The only problem is that the horses sent to the southern Fujian branch are Jin*Jiang horses, which are mountain light horses. Although their endurance is very good, the average height of these horses is only about 1.25 meters.
As long as the rider is taller, one of his legs hangs long on the horse's belly.
Especially Hanshuang, who is 1.96 meters tall and has long legs. When riding a horse, his toes can basically touch the ground.
Good guy! According to a legend, during the Japanese Warring States Period, those cavalrymen riding on donkeys had a sense of déjà vu.
Anyway, after Hu Biao saw the way Hanshuang's toe tapped on the ground from time to time, he only had two feelings in his heart:
commit a sin.
Even so, Hanshuang is actually not the worst situation, because Hanshuang can at least gallop on a war horse; with the size and weight of a white elephant, he has basically said goodbye to riding a horse.
At least until a more suitable war horse breed is developed, she has no hope in this regard...
"Lao Hu, what on earth is going on?"
After they all got off their horses and allowed the ground security forces at the airport to take the horses away, Yang Dongli was the first to ask such a question.
Although the others didn't ask, they still showed expressions of concern.
Mainly because of the notification that everyone received, they knew that something had happened to Xu Feng and the translator. They were not dead, but they were in a dangerous situation. If it were later, their lives would be in danger.
There are other more situations that I didn’t have time to talk about at all.
Seeing that a total of 37 people from the team had arrived nearby, Hu Biao gestured to Zhuye, who then began to speak:
"The telegram was sent back by Li Qun, Xu Feng's daughter-in-law. Because the situation on her side was urgent, the content sent back in a hurry was relatively limited.
Roughly speaking, things look like this.
After a long journey, the expedition team composed of Xu Feng and the translator finally arrived at the edge of Uzang, which is the Qamdo area.
The altitude there is only over 3,000 meters, which is actually far away from the real hinterland.
But right here, they still accidentally discovered the entrance to a large underground military base.
Because it was too far away from their hometown, the translator and Xufeng decided to take some people to scout the outskirts of the base; Xufeng's wife stayed outside with a few patients.
It might as well provide more information so that we can decide on some follow-up measures.
What I didn't expect was that for such a reconnaissance operation that seemed to be relatively safe, Xu Feng and the translator did not come back after being out for a day, and now they must be trapped in the base.
So Xu Feng's wife sent back a telegram asking for help.
You know, because a large number of people migrated to the mainland back then, the closer to a place like Uzang, the more alarming the number of infected people, the more powerful mutants among them, and the more dangerous they were."
After hearing this, everyone also knew the general ins and outs.
There was no objection to the immediate action to save Xu Feng and the translator.
As for the Us-Tibet area, due to the large-scale migration of the population, it is not surprising that there are now an astonishing number of infected people, so that it is inaccessible.
Regarding this situation, Xu Feng has already explained it before.
******
I must thank Rabbit. Among the supplies that he helped purchase this time, there were 8 disassembled Y-5 transport aircraft.
Although these eight Y-5 transport planes are not brand-new goods, they are just used goods temporarily mobilized by the Rabbit family from various places.
But before delivery, Rabbit's ground staff performed careful maintenance.
This allowed the Central Continent tribe to dispatch as many as ten Y-5 aircraft in a short period of time.
In addition to the 37 people that the Central Continent team can dispatch, it can also bring 30 local experts, as well as a large amount of fuel and supplies.
After all, it's thousands of miles to fly this way.
If the fuel carried is a little less, even if people are rescued, they will not be able to fly back.
After everyone arrived and Zhuye hurriedly explained the situation, the others did not dare to delay at all.
After asking Hu Biao that the weapons and supplies for this operation were all ready, he immediately started to board the plane.
During this period, only Yang Dongli raised his hand and glanced at his watch and realized that the current time was around 2 o'clock in the afternoon.
Come to think of it, now is not the right time to set off.
Because such a large-scale fleet dispatch may be seen by too many tribe members, causing some bad associations.
But he also knew that he couldn't care about it now, so he wisely kept his mouth shut.
The problem was that after he also boarded the plane, he saw a middle-aged man sitting in the corner and couldn't help but speak:
"Lao Hu, why did you take him with you for such a dangerous operation?"
The reason why I asked this was because the man in the corner of the plane who looked to be about forty-five or sixty-six years old was the same old popsicle they had tried so hard to bring back last time, but it turned out to be the old popsicle who had lost his memory.
Originally, they were still hoping for a chance and thought about letting the other person drink traditional Chinese medicine for a period of time to see if he could recover.
But after coming here this time, I found that half a year had passed and the other party had forgotten everything except that he seemed to be called Lao Zheng.
So this old Zheng is now regarded as an idle man raised by the Zhongzhou tribe.
After Hu Biao heard this, he said lightly: "Take it with you. I thought there was something wrong with this guy, so I just wanted to test him."
After hearing this, Yang Dongli also closed his mouth.
After feeling the cabin door close, the plane began to take off.
