Chapter 980 The latest development (two-in-one chapter)
Time: The 62nd day of the stay period.
Location: The northeastern edge of the Atlantic Ocean.
"Reporting to Commander Ha, at the 7 o'clock position directly in front of the battleship, a large island was found; some of them have buildings that must have been occupied by humans before."
Lookout Zhu Dongming's voice, full of surprise, came from the microphone and rang in the command cabin.
After hearing such a sentence, the husky, who had a unkempt beard, red eyes, and a haggard look, immediately became energetic.
The first time he did it, he picked up a telescope in front of him and looked towards the 7 o'clock direction.
Even during such a process, even Husky himself did not notice a single detail. He stood on tiptoes high without realizing it.
It seems that with such a small movement, you can see the so-called islands and land in advance.
This looks a bit impatient, which shows how eager he is now.
There's no way! If you think about it seriously, Husky hasn't had a bath for half a month, and now the strong smell on his body is so disgusting to no one else, even himself.
So what he wants to do most now is to find a piece of land to land on.
Then, first take a good bath and vigorously scrub off the old mud all over your body; then the next thing, of course, is to have another big meal.
But what was different from usual was that he didn't want to eat any big fish or meat in this big meal.
Instead, a variety of vegetables and fruits should be put on a large table so that he can have a good meal with an open belly. If that doesn't work, he can have a good meal with wild vegetables and fruits.
The reason why there is such a situation is that something unexpected happened in the ocean fleet.
That was more than a month ago, when they drove to what should be the Aman area, they learned such extremely bad news from some indigenous people:
Don't count on the Suez Canal. If they want to go to Northern Europe, they have to go around the Cape of Good Hope.
Because the Suez Canal, although it is a direct river without any locks to regulate the water level, has long been completely blocked.
The blocked area is quite large, and unblocking it would require a huge amount of work.
It is definitely not something that thousands of people in the ocean fleet can accomplish in ten days and a half.
Faced with such a situation at that time, Husky discussed with Yang Dongli, who was now in charge and in charge because Hu Biao had returned, through a transmitter.
Finally, after some comprehensive consideration, the two came up with this method:
The ocean-going fleet was divided into two, with Husky leading the flagship and two Type 037 submarine hunting ships to continue setting off.
In this way, it is equivalent to getting rid of those slow freighters and passenger ships, which can increase the speed of the squadron and reduce the time consumed along the way.
Mang led the remaining fleet and immediately returned to the Yangshan area.
This is also the biggest reason why Mang, the captain of the engineering team of the team, can appear in Naizi Mountain in the island country and lead people to install explosives.
In this way, Husky's squadron reduced the number of crew members as much as possible, increased the reserves of food, oil and other supplies, and then continued to set off.
I plan to circle the entire continent of Uncle Hei, almost in a circle, and continue towards my destination.
Because they deliberately left the coastline to avoid being discovered by the local indigenous people.
Therefore, during the voyage, the squadron did not encounter any opponents, but its luck was not good enough at all.
When the squadron was approaching the Cape of Good Hope, it encountered a large storm. One of the Type 037 hunting submarines was directly overturned and sank quickly.
The sinking of a 037 was a trivial matter. The key was that less than half of the crew members were not rescued.
These crew members are the seeds of the future water force of the Central Continent tribe. At that time, Husky almost couldn't breathe and fainted from heartache.
Although the Type 053 flagship and the other Type 037 hunting submarine were able to withstand the wind at sea, their subsequent shelter from the storm in a natural bay would delay them for another seven or eight days.
The most troublesome thing for Huskies is that during this sea storm, the power system of 053h also broke down.
It's not that the diesel engine on it is broken directly, but it will break down after a while and need to be repaired, which is quite troublesome.
After stopping and stopping along the way, the squadron finally arrived at such a location.
But this was achieved by relying on the extreme method of temporarily stopping at the shore to replenish water only when the fresh water was almost exhausted along the way.
After landing, the husky went directly to a small river to wash off the mud from his body.
The Huskies got another piece of good news, because an exploration team came ashore and looked for natives, vegetables and fruits, and found some signboards left behind.
After getting it back, Husky looked at the English text on it and determined the name of the place: Shetland Islands.
According to the memory of being a Grandmaster Husky for many years, the Shetland Islands are not too far away from the Norwegian Sea and Northern Europe.
In order not to alert the enemy, Countess Valkyrie of the Nordic team knew about their expedition plan in advance, so she had some preparations.
So once the squadron reaches its current position, they can start to return.
One day later, the squadron led by Husky brought a lot of wild vegetables and fruits and began the long return journey.
At the moment of setting sail, the Husky couldn't help but look back and took a deep look towards the northeast where the Nordic team was.
Even if you are too far away, you can't see anything at all.
But at this moment, the cleaned Husky was filled with indescribable pride:
The main reason is that he understands that despite the hard work on this trip, the whole squadron has suffered a lot, but the main task of exploring the waterway has been successfully completed.
The secondary task of training a group of ocean-going sailors can be considered well accomplished.
Then the next time they come over, the size of the fleet will not be just a 053h, plus a 037 submarine hunter.
There will be a stronger fleet that will enter this sea area together; without any protection from the Nordic team, they will just kill it like this...
*******
Time, the 90-day stay period, the deadline allowed by such a system, all team members must return to modern time soon.
No matter what the reason is, the members of each team who are stranded now are making some final preparations because they need to return soon.
For the Zhongzhou team, there are a few points worth mentioning.
Some they knew, and some they knew nothing about:
First, at a large-scale meeting in lz city, Yang Dongli and Zhuye were facing a group of officers from the First Mechanical Mixed Brigade, taking the trouble to explain some things.
For example: after they leave, during the remaining three months.
In the first two months, all officers and soldiers of the Mechanized Mixed Brigade must seize the time to conduct arduous training.
All equipment is not required to be used proficiently and fluently, but it must not be as stumbling as it is now; some simple problems and faults must also be able to be dealt with as soon as possible.
In the last month, we will be preparing to go to Yangshan City.
Once dispatched from Yangshan City, almost all large cement ships and iron-hulled ships arrived here; all the personnel and equipment of the first brigade immediately took a boat to Yangshan City.
Because only in this way can we arrive at Yangshan City in time before Hu Biao and others come over next time, and can board the ship and set off immediately at any time.
Under the instructions of Lao Yang and Zhuye, a group of officers fired their heads into the air.
In the past two or three months, these two leaders had managed to keep them submissive, and no one dared to make a thorn in their side.
Secondly, the Husky looked at the very familiar sea around him and suddenly couldn't express what he was thinking.
Because after almost a month, while constantly repairing the engine, they finally arrived in the South China Sea area.
The only regret is that at the current speed of the squadron, he would not be able to support the fleet until it reaches the destination of Yangshan City before he is forcibly teleported back by the system.
Fortunately, this problem is not a big deal.
Because he has known for a long time that as long as he returns to the modern plane on mobile tools such as boats and vehicles, the next time he comes over, no matter where these mobile tools are, they will still appear on it.
The specific scientific principles involved, apart from the basic principle of inertia, go deeper and even these bumpkins from the Central Continent Team don’t understand.
They were thinking that it would be like if an apple was thrown vertically in the space inside a moving car, it would fall back to the same place instead of falling out of the car.
So what! If you like to eat pork, you don’t necessarily need to know how to raise pigs.
Anyway, after everyone in the Zhongzhou Team discovered this, they were thinking about how to use a number of traits to perform some cool operations.
Otherwise, forget it.
Third, walking in the large warehouses, Lang Qing felt somewhat relieved after looking at the warehouses filled with various artillery shells, accessories, and armaments.
The above are all products that he produced over the past three months with tens of thousands of workers in multiple factories in Yangshan City working overtime.
Anyway, if production continues at the current rate, they will arrive again in three months.
The accumulated supplies, except for some special categories, are definitely enough for the next expedition.
But when it was time to go back, after walking all this way, he still had a lot of worries; for example, regarding the oil reserves, there was not much oil stored in the oil depot.
Even though they have vigorously developed the coal-based oil industry in recent years, there are currently too many places where tribes need to use oil.
In the past, I could still stock up on some, especially after adding such a fat tiger as the First Brigade.
This thing is just during the training process. Burning oil is as crazy as boiling water. The limited output is generally used as much as it is produced, and it cannot be saved at all.
So before returning, Lang Qing had happily decided.
After returning home, I left this problem to Hu Biao, the stubborn commander, and asked him to worry about these things and ignore them.
As for the bacon, seeing that 85% of the progress has been completed and the cargo ship has a tonnage of 4,700 tons, I was relieved.
Although he had no choice but to see the boat being launched, he still had considerable confidence that there would be no problems after the boat was launched.
Fourth, the two members of Team Maozi breathed a sigh of relief after seeing the huge city of MSK in the doomsday world with many high-rise buildings above the water.
By the way! The Zhongzhou team will come next time, at most after the next time.
A large fleet was about to be dispatched to launch an expedition against the Nordic team; after Hu Biao and the others thought about it, they still informed their ally, Maozi team.
There is also the minibus team, which is made up of a younger brother.
It was nothing more than repeated reminders to them that such a matter needs to be kept strictly confidential, and only the commander and a few core members should know about it.
Unlike Commander Ma En Butuo of the minibus team, after learning the above news.
In addition to the generosity that shocked the eldest brother's family, he actually had the strength of the 'Expedition Fleet'.
They are also thinking about how to cross the long distance between their base and lz city, overcome the huge difficulties, and establish a transportation line.
In a word, I hope that Big Brother's men can show some good and solve the current difficulties they are facing.
You know! They don't even have enough food now.
But when it comes to Team Maozi, the situation is a little different; although they have to admit that the Rabbit Family in the modern plane and the Zhongzhou Team in the system have already grown up.
From being like their little brother, he has gradually become a companion who can stand side by side with them, and even looks like he is becoming their big brother.
But they still have the last bit of pride in their hearts.
So they decided that when the Central Continent expedition begins, they will also dispatch a powerful armored force to join the expedition.
On the one hand, the torrent of steel from the descendants of the Great Alliance terrifies opponents.
On the other hand, it can be regarded as revenge for Chekov, the former team commander.
Based on the above thoughts, two members of Maozi's team set out from Siberia with the same purpose as the ocean-going fleet of the Central Continent tribe:
Exploring the path for the armored torrent's marching route.
Fifth, in the pitch-black night, the firelight on a large oasis is so conspicuous.
It is a pity that these fires do not represent warmth, light and other beautiful things, but bloody killings.
From the darkness of the night, warriors holding torches in their hands, riding camels, and wearing robes rushed into the oasis with roars.
While setting fire to the tattered tents on the oasis.
The rifle or machete in his hand kept shooting out, killing every target that dared to resist or that he didn't like.
During such a process, the commander of the Persian team, Hahoni, sat silently on a particularly majestic camel, without any intention of stopping it.
Of course, he thought there was no need to stop it.
After conquering this marginal oasis, they occupied all the oases on the Persian Plateau and greatly increased their population, territory and many other aspects.
It means that the development of their Persian team in the doomsday world has also reached a great improvement.
So under such circumstances, what does it matter if we make our indigenous warriors happy?
Sixth, on the Kamchatka Peninsula in Northern Europe...
In the end, after all the personnel of the above teams made the last arrangements before returning, the maximum time to stay in the doomsday world finally arrived.
Under the forced transmission of the system, these people returned to the modern plane one after another.
According to the system's routine, the development rate of the doomsday world has been officially announced at this time.
Immediately, some of the contents that were beyond everyone's expectations also made countless people dumbfounded.
"We are now announcing the latest development progress of all system teams in the apocalyptic world; please keep up the leading teams, and please continue to work hard for the lagging teams.
Because the price of failure in this competition will ultimately be unimaginable to you.
First place, Zhongzhou Team’s current development rate is 46.02%~
In second place, the Nordic team’s current development rate is 48.99%~
In third place, Team Maozi’s current development rate is 30.92%~
Fourth place, the Persian team’s current development rate is 30.81%~

In eighth place, Team Yi’s current development rate is 17.43%~
Thirteenth place, Minibus team’s current development rate is 1.29%..."
On these, familiar teams such as Uncle Sam, John's Family, and Big Rooster cannot see their names on the front at all.
