Chapter 289 Return to Sanjiang (Third update, Silver Alliance plus eighteen)

 The morning of March 4th.

Tang Zheng came out of the courtyard where his father was.

 He had breakfast here and told his father about his departure.

Although the father was a little reluctant to give up, he didn't say anything. After all, his son was older and had grown into a man of uprightness. He no longer needed to worry about many things.

 Farewell to his father, sister, Xu Jingqiu, Xiao Dili and others, Tang Zheng left here.

 Back to the official residence, Guo Yun was already waiting here.

 Seeing Tang Zheng return, Guo Yun handed Tang Zheng a drawing.

  【Medium-sized shipyard: selling price is one million gold. 】

Tang Zheng was overjoyed when he saw this drawing. Before he left for the trip, Guo Yun finally finished it.

 The blueprints were used, and a medium-sized shipyard was added to the building.

Tang Zheng looked at the vehicle page again and found that the battleship and light aircraft carrier had been unlocked.

 These two kinds of ships are what Tang Zheng has been waiting for for a long time. They will be his capital for traversing the oceans in the future.

 It's just that it can't be built yet. The small river Fengming River cannot carry such large ships. It can only be done in coastal areas and on non-frozen water.

But Tang Zheng discovered that there was something more inside the vehicle.

 M3 bicycle pontoon vehicle: with 4 passengers, it can quickly build a pontoon bridge on the water. The length of the pontoon bridge is 15 meters, the width is 10 meters, and the maximum load is 70 tons. The price is thirty thousand gold. 】

Tang Zheng was stunned for a moment when he saw this. He was sure that there was no such vehicle before.

“Guo Yun, what’s going on with this pontoon bridge?”

"General, this is the latest vehicle developed by the scientific research institute. It is also unlocked by a medium-sized shipyard. This vehicle can quickly build pontoons and allow our army's main battle tanks to pass. This is also to cope with the complex river environment in the future. It can be used by troops to quickly cross the river."

After hearing this, Tang Zheng nodded. It was always good to have one more unit, but he didn't need it for the time being, so he didn't buy it.

 Having obtained a medium-sized shipyard, all matters on his side have been settled and he can leave.

Han Yang has already found a substitute for Tang Zheng. He is an ordinary soldier of the Light Chasing Army. After makeup, he looks very similar to Tang Zheng.

 After putting on the military uniform, ordinary people cannot see it at all.

In order to prevent others from finding out the clues, Ning Yuwei also chose to stay in Zhuguang this time and continue to be her guard company commander.

As for Tang Zheng, this time he didn't even have the soldiers from the previous guard company with him.

Even those faces that have appeared on TV before, he did not bring with him. Almost all of the people who followed him this time were new faces.

In addition to correspondents Wu Di and Han Yang, Ji Yuntian also wanted to follow. Tang Zheng asked Han Yang to put makeup on him and then followed him.

In addition, Tang Zheng brought a security squad.

Of the eight people in the guard squad, four are from the Dragon Scale Special Forces and four are from the Tiger Wings Special Forces.

These eight people are all five-star special forces. Their personal strength is completely comparable to the level 2 mutants.

 Among them, Su Xin, the captain of the Dragon Scale Special Forces, has taken the lead in being upgraded to five stars. This time, he temporarily served as Tang Zheng's guard squad leader and set off with him.

Tang Zheng took his correspondents Wu Di, Han Yang, Ji Yuntian, and eight soldiers from the security squad to Zhuguang City Airport.

From here, Tang Zheng boarded an An-124 large transport aircraft.

 Under the **** of war eagles, the transport plane took off from Light Chaser City.

Under the early morning light, the plane took off, and its destination was Jinghe Airport.

 Flying in the air for more than an hour, a distance of more than a thousand kilometers passed in an instant.

 The plane landed at Jinghe Airport, and the defenders here were already waiting here.

 The plane stopped and the cabin door opened. After Tang Zheng got off the plane, there was already a vehicle waiting here.

The group got on the bus, set off from the airport, and headed straight to the dock in the southern part of Jinghe County.

Jinghe River is in the east of Hezhou, and there are two rivers passing through the urban area of ​​Hezhou. One is Jinhe River. After passing through Hezhou, it does not pass through Jinghe County.

But another Xiangshui River flows through Jinghe County.

This time Tang Zheng will set off from Xiangshui River and take a boat to the east coast.

It is the end of the world. There are countless dangers in the wild and zombies are everywhere. Especially after the departure of the Fifth Army, there are almost no regular troops stationed in the entire Hezhou area and several eastern provinces, and the zombies have not been eliminated at all.

As far as Tang Zheng knows, the other newly built countries have not yet established any large-scale safety zones, so traveling in the wild is more dangerous on the roads.

There is no such concern in waterways. Although there are mutated fish in inland rivers, they can't have any impact on large ships, so you can still move forward with confidence.

It is already March, and the latitude of Jinghe County is further south than that of Zhuguang City, and the ice on the river has melted.

 Although there are some ice floes, it does not affect the navigation of ships.

Tang Zheng and his party arrived at the shore of Xiangshui, where a ship had docked.

 It is not a transport ship of the Light Chasing Army, but an ordinary civilian cargo ship.

 After the end of the world, it is difficult for military ships to launch, but since the corrosive air disappeared, this kind of civilian cargo ship can still be used.

 Because these ships have very low technical requirements and can be easily manufactured, some old hulls can still be used if they are renovated, as long as you replace the power equipment and electrical equipment inside.

This time Tang Zheng went to the eastern region and needed an identity. Of course, he could not appear with his original identity.

Han Yang completed the make-up for Tang Zheng on the plane, and now Tang Zheng looked like Xiao Fan again. And his identity is an arms dealer from Lianghe Province.

 This ship was equipped with a lot of guns and ammunition to prove his identity.

 A group of people boarded the ship. There were also some sailors dressed as boatmen and sailors from the Light Chaser Army, who were responsible for driving the ship. There were more than forty people in total.

Departing from here by boat, Tang Zheng had to first travel more than a thousand kilometers southeast along the Xiangshui River, and then enter the North-South Grand Canal from the south of Beijing.

 Driving more than 2,000 kilometers on the canal, it entered the Bailongjiang River.

 Driving 600 kilometers from Bailongjiang, you can enter the south of Sanjiang and then reach Haojiang.

 After that, there is only a waterway of less than 100 kilometers to reach Didui Island.

Of course, you can also enter the Sea of ​​Storms from the Bailongjiang estuary and detour from the Sea of ​​Storms to Didui Island, but that is a bit far and the risk is high.

 This process is quite laborious and it is estimated to take about ten days of travel.

 When Tang Zheng left, he also made an explanation to the troops.

 In addition to the remaining troops in Zhuguang City, two field regiments, an armored battalion and an artillery battalion, began to garrison in Jinghe County.

 Because it is closer to the east coast from here, if Tang Zheng needs it, these troops can be dispatched at any time to support him there.

Farewell to the defenders, Tang Zheng and his party boarded the ship, and the freighter started.

This cargo ship is not small, with a length of more than 100 meters. Fortunately, there are no heavy munitions on the ship, such as tanks, otherwise it would be difficult to sail on the Xiangshui River.

 The surface of the freighter is stained with rust, which is more in line with the norm in the end of the world.

 But the power system of the freighter has obviously been modified, and it travels very fast. In addition, the ship now travels from west to east, with smooth wind and current, and it actually feels no slower than the road.

Tang Zheng came to his room, where there were also soldiers waiting to prepare meals.

On this ship, there are also cooks from the Light Chaser Army who are responsible for cooking. Otherwise, the general will not be able to eat well during the thousands of miles of journey.

However, after Tang Zheng tasted the food, he found that he had no appetite.

 After the apocalypse, Xu Jingqiu was a very qualified cook. He opened a small stove for Tang Zheng every day, which made Tang Zheng's appetite become more demanding. This kind of big pot rice that was very delicious before was now a bit difficult to swallow.

 But he was not a pretentious person, so he ate some anyway, and then turned on the TV on the ship.

The facilities on this ship are relatively complete, and you can also watch TV.

Even Tang Zheng knew that several machine guns and machine guns were installed in this ship for defensive operations.

For a team of outdoor adventurers, machine guns are almost invincible. As long as they don’t run into regular troops, there is no problem with the safety of this ship.

Tang Zheng actually had some knowledge about the destination of this trip, Didui Island.

 Sanjiang City, which he left before, is actually more than 200 kilometers north of Didui Island.

The south of Didicui Island is Zhonghai City, and the north is the jurisdiction of Sanjiang City.

 Before the end of the world, Tang Zheng also traveled to Didui Island and had a deep impression of it.

There are indeed many foreigners there. There are many foreign-funded enterprises on the island, and there are dozens of consulates from all over the world.

I just didn’t expect that after the outbreak of the apocalypse, the land belonging to Han Yue would be completely occupied by foreigners.

 This time, Tang Zheng will definitely have a conflict with those foreigners when he gets there.

But Tang Zheng didn't care. After obtaining the system, he was destined to go against many forces in the world, and armed conflict was inevitable.

While thinking about what to do when arriving at Didui Island, Tang Zheng fell asleep while watching a TV series on the TV. Amidst the slight rocking of the ship, Tang Zheng fell asleep.

　　After a good night's sleep, when I woke up the next day, the boat had already left the Jinghe River area and arrived at the edge of the two rivers.

After breakfast, which still had no appetite, Tang Zheng was a little bored and was in a daze on the boat.

  Sailing on the water is very boring. I have seen too much scenery on the shore, but there is nothing surprising.

 Especially in the end of the world, there are hundreds of miles of uninhabited land everywhere, the shores are overgrown with grass, and there are few human beings. The more you see, the more sleepy you become.

The ship traveled in the Xiangshui River area for more than three days and finally entered the North-South Canal south of Beijing from a relatively narrow waterway.

 The canal is 200 meters wide and runs through the waterway from Yuanjing to Qianzhou. The transportation is very convenient.

 At this point, Tang Zheng gained some energy.

 Because he saw here that the grass and trees on the shore gradually became green.

I have been staying in Zhuguang City for a long time, and I am used to seeing the ice and snow, the mountains, and the snow-covered wasteland. Now I see the rare green and feel very comfortable.

 Spring is here, and although it has not yet reached the northern region, it has already appeared in the south.

The further south you go from the canal, the more green you see. Even after driving for a few days, Tang Zheng saw wild flowers blooming on the shore.

Standing on the bow of the boat, Tang Zheng looked at the shore. In the dusk, Tang Zheng saw a huge boundary monument on the parallel road on the shore.

 “Welcome to Bulk Province.”

 Seeing this, Tang Zheng suddenly felt like he was revisiting his old place.

 We have reached the northern part of Bulk Province, and after another thousand kilometers of journey, we are almost back to Sanjiang.

 When I think of the scene when I left here, I still vividly remember it.

Now that he is back here again, Tang Zheng feels like he is in another world, and he can't help but sigh that things in the world are impermanent.
