Chapter 322 Airborne management and H-1's first flight!

   "A relic of a controllable fusion reactor was discovered in Xizhou City?"

  After hearing the news from Chu Guang, Yin Fang suddenly showed a surprised expression on his face.

   Chu Guang nodded.

   "We already have the relevant insiders and the approximate location of the reactor, and the information is likely to be reliable."

   After restraining his surprised expression, Yin Fang thought for a moment and said.

   "...a backup reactor for the underground transportation network, this is great news. But even if the fusion reactor is intact, it hasn't been activated for more than two hundred years. It may not be an easy task to repair it."

   "And, how do you plan to solve the most critical fuel?"

  Regular fusion reactors are fundamentally different from fusion reactors in Vaults. This difference is not only reflected in the size of the fuel rods, but also in the design ideas of the entire device.

  One is used as a substitute for public facilities, and the other is the energy core of permanent fortifications. The former pursues energy utilization efficiency, while the latter pursues durability.

  Even if the reactor has been shut down for more than a century, or even two centuries, the reactor in the shelter can still be restarted after inserting fuel rods.

   But conventional reactors…

   There is a high probability that after decades of shutdown, it will not be able to start normally.

  In addition to restarting the reactor, there is a more critical issue, and that is the fuel for the reactor.

  80% of the controllable fusion reactors on the land of the People's Federation use the third-generation controllable fusion technology with complete safety in the reaction process and products, that is, the fusion reaction realized by two helium-III. The process releases a lot of energy without producing any neutrons.

   But the problem is...

   If you want to mine helium-3 on a large scale, there are only two options.

   Either to Mercury or to the Moon.

  Either way, it's a bit impractical for the new alliance at this stage.

  After listening to Yin Fang's concerns, Chu Guang said after thinking for a moment.

"Don't worry about repairing the reactor. According to the information obtained from the front line, Shelter No. 101 in Xizhou City has started repairing the reactor. It is clear that the residents of the shelter have the relevant technology to repair the reactor...or they are experts in this field. "

  Yin Fang nodded.

   "This speculation is reasonable."

   After a pause, Chu Guang continued.

   "For the same reason, there is no need to worry too much about the fuel. Since they believe that there is a need to repair the reactor, there is a high probability that they have already mastered the fuel needed to start the reactor, or...at least the coordinates of the fuel."

  Yin Fang's eyes lit up.

   "It makes sense. If the fuel problem can't be solved, it's useless to repair the reactor. If it were me, they would definitely not spend that effort."

"So the key now is to get in touch with Shelter 101," Chu Guang said with a smile on his face, "If we drive out the looters in Xizhou City and properly resettle the local survivors, we should be able to get their shelter." trust."

  Although the door of Refuge 101 has been closed again, the other party should retain the ability to observe the ground to determine the next time to open the door.

   It's just that the specific means of observation are unknown, and the situation of each shelter is very different.

   Just as Chu Guang was thinking about how to get in touch with the other party, Yin Fang on the side suddenly poured cold water on him.

   "... That's what I said, but I think it's better not to be too optimistic."

  Chu Guang looked at him.

"Why?"

  Yin Fang shrugged and continued.

"If you have been in contact with the blue coats, you know that they are a group of stubborn guys who are difficult to communicate with. If they judge that the current surface conditions are not suitable for rebuilding their homes, they may go straight into the dormant cabin and lie down until the next century. work."

   It seemed that he realized that he fired a map gun and let his boss into the AOE. Yin Fang immediately added a sentence later.

   "Of course, I'm not talking about you...you're an exception."

  Hearing this sentence, Chu Guang couldn't help smiling.

   "It's okay, even if you count me in, I don't really care."

   Paused, he continued.

   “Poor communication is a problem, but we have to try.”

   After all, it is a controllable fusion reactor.

  Even if the remaining fuel reserves can only be used for 20 years, or even 10 years, it can save a lot of development time for the new alliance.

  Players from the old era and the blue jacket who mastered the core technology can solve part of the development problems in their respective fields of expertise.

  However, if you want to overtake on a curve, you still have to rely on the foundation of the Renlian era.

  Leaving the office of the scientific expedition team, Chu Guang took the elevator to the B4 floor of the shelter, returned to the sofa in the browsing room and sat down.

   It took ten minutes for Chu Guang to edit a document on the reinforcement plan on the computer, and issued instructions to various departments.

   "The first batch of relief supplies mainly consisted of food, medicine and a small amount of weapons. The airdrop plan was carried out by the H-1 'Dragonfly' project team of No. 81 Steel Plant."

   "In addition, the new alliance will set up a temporary office in Hope Town, Xizhou City, to complete population statistics, household registration information registration, supply distribution, and survivor assistance."

   Not just supplies, but a few management personnel had to be airborne. Now that Hope Town has become part of the alliance, it is naturally impossible for the alliance to leave them alone.

  Including guerrilla training, rebuilding the management system, taking over logistics, etc... These tasks will start together with the arrival of aid materials.

   As for the candidates for the office.

  Chu Guang thought for a moment.

  This person had better have a good understanding of Xizhou City, and also had some experience in resettling and managing refugees.

  Most critically, he must stand unswervingly on the position of the new alliance, so as not to be won over by the old local network.

  Based on these elements, Chu Guang suddenly thought of a suitable candidate.

  …

  Dawn City North.

  Refugees House Apartments.

  Since more than 600 survivors from Qingshi County have been taken over, there is no room for extra space here, and it has been overcrowded.

  In order to solve the problem of insufficient manpower, the logistics department recruited a group of survivors who were literate and had certain management experience from the refugees to serve as coordinators.

  As the leader of the refugees in Xizhou City, Ma Ban was naturally recruited into the team of coordinators and trained as a reserve talent.

   Ma Ban has been working very seriously.

   Not only because many of these accepted refugees are his compatriots, but also because he is eager to integrate into the new alliance through this job.

   They were a bunch of homeless people.

  Willing to accept their new alliance is their only reliance.

  Even if the Bonechewing Tribe is defeated, it is impossible for them to return to live in Xizhou City, as there is no place for them there.

  However, what Maban didn't expect was that he had received a transfer order from the logistics department less than two months after he took up the post of coordinator of the refugee home.

   And it’s still about the transfer order from his hometown.

   "...Let me be the director of the Alliance's Office in Hope Town?" After hearing what Old Luca said, Maban was stunned.

  Looking at Ma Ban with a surprised face, Old Luca nodded and said in a serious tone.

   "This is the meaning of the manager."

   Maban couldn't help asking.

   "I know it's the order of the manager, but why... it's me."

   Luca continued.

   "The manager said that you know enough about the situation in Xizhou City. He needs a manager who knows enough about the local situation to carry out work on behalf of the new alliance."

  Hearing these words, a bitter smile appeared on Ma Ban's face.

   "I do understand the situation in Xizhou City, but...my relationship with the resistance organization in Xizhou City is not that good."

  If the relationship is good, he will not take his tribe south to wander.

  Seeing through Maban's worries, old Charlie continued.

"You don't have to worry about this. From now on, you represent the new alliance, not you and your people. We will send people to assist you in your work. You just need to follow our instructions and do a good job in the rescue and resettlement of survivors." OK."

   Hearing that the new alliance would send someone to help him, Ma Ban finally breathed a sigh of relief.

  Understanding is understanding. If the people there don’t cooperate with me, it’s useless for me to understand their situation.

   Now there is one last question left.

   "Now the road leading to Xizhou City has been blocked, how should I go back?"

  Although there were lion teeth in Qingshi County before, the road from Xizhou City to Qingquan City was not completely blocked, and it was no problem to detour through the forest outside the county seat while it was dark.

   But now it's not possible.

  Songlin Valley has become the front line, and the highlands on both sides are densely packed with trenches. It is tantamount to dreaming to sneak past the predators.

  Old Luca smiled and said.

   "Don't worry about this, we have prepared a plane for you."

"airplane?"

  Ma Ban was stunned for a moment, and suddenly had an ominous premonition in his heart.

   It didn't bother him for long.

  As old Luca said his next sentence, his premonition quickly became a reality.

   "That's right, you will take the latest equipment H-1 of the New Alliance to arrive in the sky over Xizhou City, and the elite guards will take you to skydive."

  Hearing this sentence, Ma Ban was stunned.

   "Wait, I never skipped—"

  As if guessing what he would say, Old Luca gave him a relaxed smile and patted him on the shoulder comfortingly.

"Don't worry, the Guards Corps is the confidant of the administrator. They are all professionally trained paratroopers. You don't need to worry about landing. You just need to obey the order and set off with your luggage and appointment letter. !"

   Maban: "???"

  …

  Late at night.

  The airport in the north of Shuguang City.

  A propeller plane with a length of nearly 20 meters slowly drove onto the runway.

  Compared to the "little sparrows" in the hangar with an average length of only five or six meters, this big guy named H-1 "Dragonfly" is obviously more like a serious plane.

  Three-seat electric motors provide it with sufficient power, and the casing made of A3 aerospace aluminum alloy allows it to better defend against light weapons while keeping its weight low.

  Although its maneuverability is not as good as the W-2 of Goblin Technology, it has better cruising speed and endurance in long-distance flight.

  Whether it is long-distance transportation or strategic bombing missions, it can easily perform.

   Even according to the requirements of the manager, it is easy for it to install 37mm artillery on the side of the fuselage to provide close fire support for ground troops.

   "Brothers, let the little flies of goblin technology see what is professional! What is a real plane!"

   "Aww!"

  At the airport, the players of Factory No. 81 gave out their enthusiasm and sent the only little player among them who had touched an airplane in reality as a pilot.

  As for the candidate for the co-pilot, one of the factory directors—【Yaer, I want to go to the bathroom】will be in charge.

  H-1 "Dragonfly" is a two-seater aircraft. Although it is theoretically possible to carry a single load, it is better to put something on the co-pilot position to balance the weight.

  Although Brother Suo has never piloted a plane, it is still no problem to sit in the co-pilot seat to make up the number.

   "Big brother, can you do it?"

  Wearing an aviator hat and sitting in the co-pilot seat, Brother Suo said nervously while fastening his seat belt.

  The cost and working hours of H-1 are more than ten times that of W-2, especially this aircraft is the only prototype of No. 81 Steel Plant.

  Although they have gone through many tests before this to ensure that this big guy can fly, but it is the first time to perform a mission on the front line, so he cannot be nervous.

"Don't ask me if I can do it, remember to stop if you can't take it. Just this propeller plane, it can't break through at 400 per hour, so there is nothing difficult to drive." The door stepped on the bottom, "Sit tight!"

  A huge thrust came from his back, and he was caught off guard, and brother Yasuo was directly pressed on the seat.

   "I'm so talkative to ask, where did you drive?"

   "2042!"

   "?"

   "Hahaha, just kidding... Ahem, it's actually Zhan Lei."

   "???"

  Muscles all over his body were tense, Brother Suo stared at the speed dial with his eyes wide open, watching the plane accelerate to the maximum.

  Accompanied by the roar of the propeller, the landing gear left the ground, and the "dragonfly" with its wings stretched raised its huge head, and finally rose smoothly into the sky.

  Looking at the receding ground outside the cabin, Brother Suo's beating heart finally calmed down a little, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

   "I feel that flying a plane is quite simple."

  Of course, the main thing is that this guy really knows a little bit.

   As for what was opened in War Thunder, it should be nonsense.

  Brother Mantou smiled.

   "Really? How about you have a meeting instead?"

   As he spoke, he let go of the joystick.

  The fuselage was slightly tilted, and Brother Suo, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, was so frightened that he quickly grabbed the armrest welded to the cockpit and screamed.

   "Damn! Don't mess around."

   "Hahaha, don't be nervous, I'm just kidding." Pig's nose snorted, Mantou grabbed the joystick with a smirk, gently moved it, and skillfully straightened the tilted fuselage back.

  Brother Suo gave this guy a hard look.

   MMP!

  I will ask you to name your surname next time!

   "One thing to say, the material of this plane is really hard. Damn it, it's really incompetent to use it on a propeller plane!" Holding the joystick, Brother Mantou was still chattering and beeping.

  Being too lazy to talk to this guy, Brother Suo reached out and turned on the communication switch.

   Clearing his throat, he said seriously.

   "This is Dragonfly, we have successfully taken off... How far are you from your destination?"

  Accompanied by a loud electric sound, a familiar voice came from the communication channel.

   "We've arrived, just waiting for you... How about you? How long is it?"

   "We're already on our way, within about twenty minutes."

   "No hurry, pay attention to safety."

   "Got it, we'll keep an eye out!"

   It's not just Brother Suo who is sitting in the co-pilot's seat who is nervous, but also Ma Ban who is tied to the seat in the cabin.

  Feeling the vibration of the seat under him, every cell in his body trembled. Especially when the fuselage tilted for a moment just now, it almost scared him out of his soul.

   Not to mention it is the first time to skydive, he is even the first time to fly.

  From the moment he got on the plane, he panicked a lot.

   "I always feel like this plane is falling apart!"

   "Relax, it will be over soon, not so exaggerated." Lu Bei, who was sitting next to him, had a very calm expression, and even comforted him.

  However, this sentence did not play a comforting role, but made Ma Ban even more nervous.

   It's over soon What the hell? !

  Is this about skydiving again?

  In addition to the two, there were four other people on the plane.

  In addition to sending supplies to Hope Town, this flight also went with three awakened guards and three logistics department managers.

   As early as a month ago, the soldiers of the Guards Regiment received parachuting training at the airport, and now it has achieved initial results.

   Tandem skydiving is one of the training subjects, as long as the person tied to the body does not move around, basically there will be no major problems.

   Maban's thoughts were in chaos.

   At this moment, the alarm bell sounded in the cabin, and his nerves tensed instantly.

   "What happened?!"

   "Don't be nervous, we're almost there," Lu Bei threw him a nylon buckle, "Take it, I'll tie you to me in a while."

   Ma Ban stared at this sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy. No matter how you look at it, this guy is just a child, not very reliable.

   "Why, how to tie it?"

   Lu Bei said patiently.

   "Turn your back to me, and leave the rest to me."

  …

  Night sky.

  A plane with a length of nearly 20 meters flew over Xizhou City and dropped a string of parachutes in the dark.

  Under the cover of night, a group of guerrilla soldiers, led by four players, quietly approached the box.

   Carefully observing the surrounding situation, the night cross made a gesture behind him.

"Safety."

  Guerrilla soldiers filed out from the darkness, swarmed up to the airdrop box, and dragged it into a side alley.

  When they saw the packs of dry food hanging in the airdrop box, everyone's faces showed surprise, even excited expressions.

   Croissants!

   There are also baked and fried green wheat cakes!

  Many people have only eaten a piece of nutrition cream from noon until now, and they have already started to swallow their saliva when they see the food in front of them.

  Ye Shi also had a surprised expression on his face.

   But he was not surprised by the contents of the box, but by the size of the box.

   "Can the mosquito's plane hold so many things?"

   A box with a length and width of one meter.

   It doesn't look like a mosquito can fit in that small plane.

  Old Bai looked up at the sky.

   "It doesn't look like a mosquito-like plane... The one who connected with us just now is Brother Suo. I heard that No. 81 Factory is also building planes. Maybe it's new equipment that we haven't seen before."

  Ye Shi said in surprise.

   "Damn, I didn't see them pretending to be aggressive on the forum."

  Old Bai smiled and said.

   "Who knows, maybe I want to hold back my big move."

   Walking to the side of the ecstatic guerrillas, Fang Chang looked at the crowd and said.

   "You guys transport the supplies back first, and we have to pick up a few people here."

  Restraining the excited expression on his face, the guerrilla leading the team looked at him and said.

   "Are you all right? Let me bring a few people with you!"

   "No need," Fang Chang patted the assault rifle hanging on his chest, and said with a smile, "We are enough, just wait for us at the entrance of the subway station!"

  Although he was still a little uneasy, the guerrilla leading the team nodded.

   "Then you all be careful."

  …

  The moment his feet left the cabin, Maban felt as if his heart was frozen. It wasn't until his feet touched the ground that the manic heartbeat returned to his chest cavity.

  While floating in the air, he thought more than once, what if the parachute didn't open, what if the predator happened to see their parachute.

   Fortunately, this kind of thing didn't happen...

   Sitting slumped on the ground, Ma Ban, who was lying on the ground, gasped heavily. This was the first time he had such a feeling in his heart—it was so nice to have his **** touch the ground.

  Untied the nylon buckle, and Lu Bei, who was a decade younger than him, cut the paracord with a dagger, and reached out to pat him on the shoulder.

   "Hurry up, it will be troublesome when the marauder patrols wander here in a while."

  As soon as he heard the predator, Ma Ban's relaxed mood instantly became tense, and he jumped up from the ground with a jerk.

   "What do we do now?"

   "Go to the assembly point on the map to join the others," Lu Bei said calmly, taking out a Pu-9 submachine gun, "A squad from the Burning Corps is already waiting for us there."

  The entire airborne process was safe and sound.

  All three groups of six people landed.

  Looking at these NPCs who were in a state of embarrassment but had no serious problems, Ye Shi couldn't help but slapped his tongue.

   "Why do you think they are all right?"

   Even after so many skydives, there are still unlucky children in the Corps who die in various accidents.

  Guangfeng replied casually.

   "Maybe it's because they only have one life, so they practice more seriously."

  Ye Shi suddenly said.

   "Damn it, it makes sense!"

   Thinking about it carefully, it really makes sense.

  If the game is more hard-core, and the sequence level is reset directly after death, I guess those fools who insist on pretending to be stuck at the limit distance to open their umbrellas will be more or less restrained...

   One night time.

  The new alliance airdropped nearly 12 tons of food to Xizhou City, as well as supplies such as antibiotics, weapons, and ammunition that the local area urgently needed.

   Along with this batch of supplies, there were also three soldiers from the Guards Regiment and three managers from the Logistics Department.

  Did not live up to the expectations of the managers. As soon as Maban arrived in Hope Town, he took the lead in establishing the Alliance Office and took over the warehouse and refugee relief work in Hope Town.

   Seeing old acquaintances standing together with people from the new alliance, Wu Chengyi and the management of Hope Town were surprised, but they didn't say anything.

  Because of the migration, there were some festivals between them, but it was also a helpless move for survival, and the two sides were not yet to the extent of enemies.

   On the contrary, after seeing that the survivors in Xizhou City can also be reused by the alliance, everyone is relieved.

   It seems that the manager did not lie to them.

   The person in charge of connecting with Maban is Yang Duo, the logistics director of the resistance organization.

  Considering that he was the first official in the management to support joining the alliance, Wu Chengyi felt that there would be less resistance to letting him take up this job.

  Of course, the most important thing is that the two had a little friendship before.

   Although only a little...
