The repair work of the oil city wall is in progress in an orderly manner.
On the third day after they found the helicopter, Jackal, Ant and others finally figured out the reason why the helicopter's fuselage kept shaking and repaired it.
"Fortunately, the extra parts were removed from the other helicopter, otherwise there would be no replacement for that part." Jackal wiped his sweat and said to the third uncle next to him.
The third uncle looked at the helicopter, thought for a moment and said, "How far can it fly if it is filled with diesel?"
Generally speaking, helicopters are filled with special aviation kerosene. Of course, some helicopters are filled with gasoline. The main determining factor lies in its engine.
This Mi 8 uses an AI-24V turboshaft engine, so it is better to add aviation kerosene.
Jackal hesitated for a moment and said: "If you add diesel, the cruising range will be reduced by 80%, and you may only be able to fly 800 kilometers, so if you fill up with diesel, it will be difficult to fly back directly. There is still more than 100 kilometers left."
The third uncle pondered for a while, his eyes lit up, and he said: "What if we bring the diesel? This way we can refuel halfway."
"Yeah, it's not impossible. You can give it a try." Hearing this, Jackal nodded and said.
The ant next to him also said: "Captain, what do you mean, take the diesel on the plane, stop in the middle, and then get off the plane to refuel?"
"right."
Ant thought thoughtfully, this kind of operation is somewhat interesting.
Later, the third uncle found Li Yu.
Get straight to the point.
"The helicopter's fault has been solved. Now you can take the helicopter back to the Da Zhangshu base at any time." The third uncle said.
"Great, but is there any problem with the diesel? I heard you said before that you need to add aviation kerosene." Li Yu looked happy, and then after considering the problem of large fuel, he paused and asked.
The third uncle waved his hand and said: "It's okay, you can use it instead, but if you can find aviation kerosene later...well, it will be difficult to find it."
"You can refine it yourself. Don't we have refining equipment? And that old Dong's wife Kong Shuang is an expert in chemical engineering. Let her try it. Maybe it can work."
Li Yu thought about this, so he spoke.
The third uncle's eyes lit up, he thought for a moment and said, "It would be best if I could extract it myself. In this case, the damage to the helicopter engine would be less."
"By the way, you have been asking when the helicopter will be repaired. Now that it is repaired, do you want to go back first? Or..."
Li Yu nodded and said: "We have been out for so long and have no contact with the Da Zhangshu base, so I am a little worried.
It just so happened that we seized the military radio and took it back with us. In this way, we can keep in touch at any time."
The third uncle looked at the sky. It was still two o'clock in the afternoon. If we set off now, we would be able to reach Zhangshu base before six o'clock in the evening.
So he nodded and said: "Okay, it's only a few hours anyway. Let's just let Xiaotie and the others go back too."
Li Yu nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go back first and come back in a few days.
In addition, the wall is still being repaired here, so we can’t take too many people away, so don’t go back with too many people this time.”
The third uncle thought for a while and said: "Then you should take something with you when you go back. An empty plane is a waste of space.
Let me think about it, why don't you take some of the artillery shells and weapons captured this time back, so that we can use the car to pull it back later and reduce the weight."
"Okay." Li Yu agreed without thinking.
After the discussion, Li Yu immediately found Ju Tianrui and asked him to quickly load some weapons and shells from the car onto the plane.
On the other side, Li Yu called Li Tie, Li Gang and others and told them about returning to the Zhangshu base.
All four of them were very excited.
It’s not that I’ve never flown before, it’s just that the thought of being able to take a helicopter back to the base in the apocalypse is very exciting.
So they quickly packed their things and were waiting to board the plane at any time.
Before setting off, Li Yu found his third uncle again.
"Third Uncle, I'll leave this to you for the time being." Li Yu said to Third Uncle.
The third uncle said with a smile: "You are coming back in a few days. Remember to bring me some fruit. Have a good trip."
"Okay." Li Yu nodded.
Half an hour later, Ju Tianrui and others loaded the weapons and ammunition onto the plane.
This flight back was driven by the jackal and the ant.
Jackal has not seen his son for more than half a month, and he really misses him.
Before leaving, Jackal checked that the fuel tanks, the main fuel tank, the backup fuel tank, and the external fuel tank were all full of fuel. In addition, they also put a few barrels of oil in the cabin so that they could find a suitable place if the fuel was about to run out.
Stop and refuel.
Judging from the full fuel tank of this Mi 8, a total of 3,700 liters of fuel are required to fill the tank.
soon.
When everything was ready, Li Yu and others boarded the helicopter.
Buzz buzz——
The rotor rotated faster and faster, and a strong wind blew from the ground.
Third Uncle and others watched Li Yu and the others leave.
At this time, the collaborators who were repairing the wall on the edge of the oil city were surprised to see this scene.
"What just flew over, was that a helicopter? They actually have this thing?"
"The biker gang didn't die unjustly, I'm serious, but why didn't we use helicopters before?"
"I heard they are called, what are they called? I heard someone mention it last time."
"Big camphor tree!"
"It doesn't feel very domineering."
"Not yet domineering. Look at those big planes and those tanks. They are already domineering enough. It doesn't matter what they are called."
"you are right."
...
Wearing earmuffs, you can still hear the noise of the helicopter.
It feels like someone is drilling holes with an electric drill, which is very harsh.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! They kept flying at a low altitude, probably at an altitude of more than two hundred meters.
Generally speaking, helicopters are not equipped with parachutes because there is no need and the helicopter itself is a large parachute.
And because the flight altitude is not very high, many times the parachute has already reached the ground before opening.
However, when they were in that military area, they unexpectedly found seven or eight parachute bags, which were not heavy anyway, so they simply took them with them.
This helicopter flies quite fast. It's already very windy at high altitudes, and it flies very fast.
After the window was opened, the wind outside blew the hair of everyone inside.
Flying some distance.
Li Yu looked at the time. It was 3:30 in the afternoon. It was estimated that he would arrive at the Da Zhangshu Base at 6:30 in the evening.
Time flies by.
It was 5:45 in the evening.
The sun sets in the west, and the afterglow of the setting sun.
Looking at the architectural scenery in front of me, I feel more and more familiar.
They have entered Gan Province, but they are short of fuel.
They had anticipated this situation for a long time, so Jackal looked at the microphone and shouted to Li Yu behind him: "Let's find a place to land and refuel. You guys sit tighter."
"Okay." Li Yu covered the microphone and shouted.
The jackals hovered in the air for a while. Since they were flying in a straight line, they did not go around the city. Now they happened to pass directly through the city.
It was right over a city at this time.
The ant pointed to a building. That building should be a landmark building. It was very tall and covered a large area.
The most important thing is that the terrace on the roof of this building is large and flat.
Viewed from a high altitude, there is not a single person or zombie up there.
It looks very safe.
Very suitable for parking and refueling.
Jackal made an "OK" gesture and then controlled the helicopter to fly over there.
Huhu——
Jackal operated skillfully and slowly landed the helicopter on the roof of the building.
Bah!
Li Yu unbuckled his seat belt and got out of the helicopter carrying an automatic rifle.
He looked around and stood on guard on a step.
Li Gang and others also operated in the same way as him. After Cannon saw the door leading to the roof, he ran over and closed the door.
Li Yu stood on the edge of the roof of dozens of floors. In the distance was a forest of buildings, dilapidated but full of green plants.
At this time, the sunset was setting, and they were standing on a high place with a beautiful view.
The jackal did not get off the plane. After the ant got off the plane, he called Li Tie and Yang Tianlong to help and add fuel to the plane.
The simplest way is gravity refueling, where there are fuel tanks on the wings.
The refueling speed is neither too fast nor too slow.
Ten minutes later, they filled up the fuel tank.
"Get on the plane!" Ant shouted towards them.
Li Yu nodded, and then shouted to the cannon standing on guard on the other side: "Let's go."
Everyone got on the helicopter.
Just after they got on the helicopter and Li Yu fastened his seat belt.
He casually looked around, and suddenly, he looked at the door on the top of the building, and there seemed to be some movement.
boom!
at the same time.
Whirring whirring--
The helicopter took off and its propellers kept spinning, making a huge noise.
Did you hear it wrong?
No, there must be someone or a zombie behind that door.
Li Yu stared at the door and shouted to the microphone: "Look at that door!"
I saw a prominent fist mark on the door.
That's an iron gate!
What kind of strength does it take to have such a fist mark?
"Did you see this fist mark when you closed the door just now?" Li Yu suddenly asked towards the cannon next to him.
Cannon hesitated for a moment, then said: "I, to be honest, I forgot, I couldn't see very clearly."
Li Yu didn't answer. Looking at the fist mark, his heart moved and he said to Jackal: "Uncle Jackal, can you go around this building? Keep a safe distance, don't get too close, at least twenty meters away."
Jackal heard this. He had just heard what Li Yu said and was naturally a little curious.
So he said: "Okay, but you can't delay too long. It will be dark in another hour and a half. It's hard to fly when it's dark."
