Chapter 144 The Strength of Lingnan Base
The next day, at an altitude of 10,000 meters, 200 kilometers away from the Lishan Base, a huge host slowly moved forward in the southwest.
Through the host's vision, Wang Jin observed the traces of human activities within a radius of ten miles, looking for the location of the Lingnan Base.
As Wang Jin's biggest opponent in the future, Wang Jin did not dare to be careless at all. After the meeting ended last night, Wang Jin mobilized 10 hosts to fly to the southwest. This host was the first to arrive. Nine more hosts followed soon to conduct a carpet search of the plain, and it was imperative to find the nest of the Lingnan Base.
Connecting the vision of this first host, Wang Jin saw a large lush plain, with emerald green grass that stretched as far as the eye could see, and on the left side of the grassland, there was a continuous mountain range that separated the Lishan Base from the plain.
There are mostly small herbivores on the plains, and there are fewer carnivorous mutants. Only tropical rainforests such as mountains are the base camps of large animals. It is less dangerous for humans to live on the grasslands. No wonder the Lingnan base is located here. I think there is a reason for this.
Although the host's reconnaissance range is large, facing this endless plain, the host's reconnaissance range is also a drop in the bucket, and it is impossible to find the target quickly.
After waiting for other hosts to arrive, Wang Jin's reconnaissance range has been greatly increased, and he began to go deep into the grassland for reconnaissance.
Wang Jin has not found the Lingnan base yet, but he found a strange phenomenon. The grass in many places on the plains is withered and yellow, which is very inconsistent with the surrounding green, like an ugly scar on the grassland. People feel uncomfortable when they see it, and feel that the beautiful scenery has been destroyed.
"Is there still a disease and insect disaster in the end of the world? It's really strange!" Although Wang Jin was curious, he didn't pay too much attention. Now for Wang Jin, finding the Lingnan base is the key.
As a super-large base with a population of 700,000, the traces of their human activities in Lingnan Base must be very obvious. Although the plain is large, the scale of their Lingnan Base is not small. After flying for several hours, the ten hosts finally made a discovery.
Wang Jin found through a host flying directly to the north that there were traces of human picking on the grass on the ground, a newly paved cement road led to the distance, and there were some human garbage such as clothing fragments and plastic bags on the ground.
Wang Jin was overjoyed, which showed that there must be human settlements nearby, and on the plain, only Lingnan Base met the conditions.
Sure enough, as the host continued to move forward, Wang Jin saw many survivors in tattered clothes appearing, looking for edible wild vegetables on the grass.
Although there are many grasses on the plain, most of them are weeds that cause diarrhea. Except for mutant beasts with strong digestive systems, humans will be in danger of life if they eat them seriously.
There are not many edible wild vegetables on the grassland, even fewer than those around Wang Jin's Lishan Base. All these survivors look miserable, with dull eyes and weak bodies due to hunger, and they are not as good as the survivors of the Lishan Base.
The host continued to move forward, and patrol teams composed of armored vehicles began to appear around, and reinforced concrete bunkers also appeared scattered, forming an outer defense line.
After the host flew for a few minutes, a huge city slowly appeared in front of Wang Jin. It seemed to be the Lingnan base that Wang Jin was looking for.
Unlike the small county town ruled by Wang Jin, this city was not originally there, but was newly built after the end of the world.
This can be seen from the fact that they are all low-rise bungalows. However, although the buildings in this city are low, the city walls are very tall, nearly 20 meters high and 5 meters thick, which is much taller and thicker than the walls of the Lishan base.
Because the Lingnan base is mostly low-rise bungalows, and the population living there is as high as 700,000, the city covers a huge area, and the city wall is also built very wide. It is impossible to complete this city wall without more than 100,000 people building it for a month.
On this city wall, Wang Jin saw machine guns and artillery everywhere, and on the right side of the city wall of the Lingnan base, there is also an extremely huge military camp, where tens of thousands of soldiers live, forming a large military camp.
"Tanks! These are planes, missiles and artillery."
Wang Jin's expression suddenly tightened. In the host's sight, more than 500 tanks were parked behind the military camp. This steel monster was not dazzling under the sun, giving people a heavy and indestructible feeling.
There were more than 800 armored vehicles and 1,000 infantry fighting vehicles with the tanks, but in front of the steel monsters like tanks, these infantry fighting vehicles lost their color and were taken away by the tanks.
Outside the military camp, a large airport was very conspicuous, with a 3,000-meter-long runway extending out, and 50 helicopters and 20 fighter jets parked on the apron.
In the hangar, there were more planes left for maintenance. Wang Jin counted them carefully, and there were more than 200 helicopters and 80 fighter jets. Together with the aprons outside, the number of aircraft in Lingnan Base reached 300.
There were also four missile positions deployed around the Lingnan base, each with ten missile vehicles, radar vehicles and auxiliary launch vehicles, which could launch air-to-ground missiles.
Not far from the missile position is the artillery position, which has at least 100 heavy artillery pieces and more than 300 light artillery pieces, capable of carrying out flip-over bombing on the enemy.
In addition, they also have a large number of anti-aircraft guns distributed around the base, with slender muzzles pointing high into the sky to protect the airspace security of the base.
"How can there be such powerful equipment? Logically speaking, even if it is a group army, their strength is not that strong!"
Wang Jin frowned deeply, wondering why the 37th Army has such strong firepower. Even a mechanized group army does not have so much equipment.
Wang Jin did not know that this group army came to the Lingnan Plain at the beginning of the end of the world and accepted the complete equipment of an independent division here. In addition, the military allowed them to fight smoothly, gave them more heavy weapons, and delivered the inventory equipment to them for use, which led to the scene Wang Jin saw now.
"This is troublesome!" Wang Jin originally felt that this group army was difficult, but he did not expect that the opponent's strength was stronger than he imagined, which had a great impact on his next plan.
"An unidentified object was found. The target is about 10,000 meters away, 5 kilometers away from the base, and 70 meters long. It is initially determined to be a mutant beast. Please ask whether to use anti-aircraft missiles to shoot it down, or take off fighter jets to intercept and destroy it."
At this moment, in the missile position of Lingnan Base, in a reconnaissance radar vehicle, the radar soldier looked at the target marked on the display and picked up the walkie-talkie to make a request.
"Does it pose a threat to the base! Is it a second-level mutant beast? Can it be killed directly?" A calm voice came from the walkie-talkie.
"It is impossible to determine whether it is a carnivorous bird. This size may be a second-level mutant beast, but it is not certain. This bird is more than 70 meters long, and its defense should be strong. It is very likely that it cannot be shot down directly, but we are sure that if this mutant beast dives to attack, our three-dimensional anti-aircraft firepower can shoot it down in the first time."
"Forget it, since it has not threatened us yet, let's not make things complicated. Flying mutant beasts are not so easy to kill. They are too fast and too flexible."
"Understood!"
Wang Jin didn't know that his host had escaped a disaster because of other people's misunderstanding. He was still frowning and thinking about countermeasures.
