End of the World

Chapter 102 Temporary Modification

"The dismantling was not very professional, but at least they did not damage the entire bridge!" Chen Guangjun looked at the lonely bridge pier in the river and commented on the work results of those people.

"What do you mean?" Wu Bin was stunned. Isn't it easy to demolish the bridge?

"Do you know why they left the bridge piers in the river? That's because they still need the bridge!" Chen Guangjun asked himself.

"Brother Jun, are you saying that they dismantled the bridge and put it back like building blocks when needed?"

"That's right. After a small bridge like this is completely cut, two cranes can be used to lift the bridge away. The operation is not as difficult as you think!"

"If that's the case, we'll have to learn how to build bridges in the future!" Wu Bin sighed. He could imagine how difficult the road ahead would be.

"The enemy has a plan, but I have a ladder. Actually, it's almost the same. It depends on how I deal with it!" Chen Guangjun didn't think too much. Things will work out when the time comes. Can a person be suffocated to death by urine?

The next bridge lay quietly on the river. It was not because those people did not want to tear it down, but because there were too many zombies. The wall was built on this side of the river, so there were many zombies crowded on the bridge, and it was very lively.

If nothing unexpected happens, the Red Society will prepare to expel the zombies on the other side of the river in the near future. Their leader does not want to delay too long and has sent two teams from the other side of the river. They are trying to split some of the zombies by attracting them. There are nearly 20,000 zombies on the river bank and they must be careful.

There was a buzzing sound coming from the sky. Two drones that were originally used for taking photos were now carrying out the task of observing the zombies. It must be said that the people of the Red Society were fully equipped.

The drone was mainly aimed at the group of zombies, and the operator did not notice Wu Bin and the other person. Moreover, the two men hid when they saw the drone in the sky.

Some of the zombies below were attracted by the sound of the drones and waved their claws at them, as if this would knock them down. However, they were just deceiving themselves.

"It's almost done, let's go back!" Chen Guangjun whispered to Wu Bin. Now that they have found the zombies, they can break the bridge open from here while it's still there to let the zombies come over.

Because of the drone in the sky, the two men dared not go up to the river bank again and could only swim back in the river. Wu Bin could not swim, but he had no problem holding his breath, so Chen Guangjun pulled Wu Bin and paddled downstream.

As soon as he climbed down from the wall, He Yuxin ran forward and made sure that Wu Bin was okay. She quickly wiped the water off Wu Bin's body. The weather had turned cold at this time, and the temperature of the river water was very cold. Wu Bin was shivering with cold. Chen Guangjun was much better, after all, he was a military man.

After picking up the two people, He Yuxin drove the infantry fighting vehicle off the street and found a place for the two to warm themselves by a fire first.

Dafeng and Chen Haitao lit a bonfire for the two of them. There was no need to worry about being discovered here. The two of them changed into dry clothes and roasted themselves by the fire. Their bodies instantly became warm. He Yuxin also found a container to boil some hot water for the two of them.

"We have found the group of zombies, and the next step is to let them in!" After drinking the hot water, Wu Bin spoke slowly at the signal of Chen Guangjun.

"So what are your plans?" Chen Haitao asked directly. Dafeng was a little unhappy with his tone, but fortunately He Yuxin secretly pulled him back.

"There's no plan to speak of. We're short on time. We just need to find a way to tear a hole in their wall!" Wu Bin said, ignoring Chen Haitao's tone. By then, they will have a chance of success if they are in chaos.

"It's easy to tear open a gap, but how do we hide our intentions? Or how can we prevent them from thinking that someone intends to rescue the hostages?" Chen Guangjun raised a very tricky question. Just imagine, someone deliberately causing sabotage must have other intentions.

"Brother Jun is right. It would be better if we could create some accidents!" Wu Bin nodded. This was the root of the problem.

Fang Xiaoyun was thinking hard about a solution. She turned around and saw He Yuxin's expression of enlightenment. She reached out and poked her and said, "Girl, have you thought of something?"

Several people looked at He Yuxin. He Yuxin noticed that everyone's gazes made her feel a little uncomfortable, so she said, "What if we create an accidental incident?"

"Be more specific!" Chen Guangjun motioned for her to continue.

"The zombies can't do anything to us. We can drive the armored vehicles directly to break through the wall and cross the bridge. The armored vehicles have wading capabilities. Ordinary people would never think that we will come back!" He Yuxin expressed her thoughts.

"Yu Xin is right. If we rush across the bridge, the chaos caused will be enough to make them busy and they won't notice it in a short time!" Dafeng agreed.

"If you want to make it more realistic, find another car and disguise it as a convoy!" He Yuxin added that the other car might be in danger.

"Haha, it's a good smoke bomb. It's indeed safer this way!" Chen Guangjun also nodded in agreement. He Yuxin's idea coincided with his. His eyes turned to Wu Bin. After all, he was the captain and he would make the final decision.

Wu Bin did not express his opinion immediately. He shook the hot water in the cup. He thought that He Yuxin's method was feasible to a certain extent. With the firepower of the Red Society, the other vehicles would be very dangerous. There seemed to be no other way.

"Okay, let's do as Yu Xin said!" Wu Bin pondered for a while. If he wanted to avoid taking risks, he would play big. Wu Bin continued, "Let's go get two cars now. Since it's a team, we should be serious!"

He Yuxin opened her mouth, but swallowed the words that were about to come out of her throat. One car was dangerous enough, and Wu Bin wanted to add another one.

"Let's go!" Chen Guangjun looked at the sky. They didn't have much time left. They had to break through the wall before dark. Otherwise, a surprise attack at night would be too fake. Who would travel at night? There must be something wrong with his brain.

He Yuxin found a repair shop according to the instructions on the map. They originally just wanted to find some tools to temporarily modify the vehicle, and they happened to find a repair shop that repaired large trucks. There were four or five heavy trucks parked next to the repair shop, but they didn't know if they had been repaired.

Chen Guangjun went up to check and found no major problems. As long as there was no problem with the engine or brakes, everything else was fine.

"How is it? Is the car usable?" Seeing Chen Guangjun finished the inspection, Wu Bin stepped forward and asked.

"There should be no problem. This heavy-duty semi-trailer may be here to replace its wheels. The rear wheels are badly worn and the wheel hubs have some cracks. They have not been replaced yet, so it does not affect its use. That semi-trailer is here to repair the trailer support axle. Its spring steel plate is deformed!" Chen Guangjun pointed at the two semi-trailers. The deformed one was the trailer support axle, so he just needed to replace the other trailer.

"Brother Jun, find a way to start them. I'll go out and find a container trailer!" Wu Bin took a look at the bodies of the two trailers. Who would want such bodies in this doomsday?

"Details!" Chen Guangjun couldn't help but give Wu Bin a thumbs up, although he had already considered these.

Wu Bin led He Yuxin and Dafeng to drive infantry fighting vehicles out to the highway to look for semi-trailers with container bodies. However, this type of body is relatively rare, but there should be a lot of them on port roads.

"Did you find it?" Chen Guangjun asked when he saw the three people coming back quickly.

"We only found a semitrailer transporting a shipping container, which was full of books!" Wu Bin was helpless, and they did not dare to run too far.

"It doesn't matter. I found a heavy box truck behind the repair shop. It's not bad!" Chen Guangjun seemed to have expected this.

The trucks are all diesel vehicles. After being exposed to wind and rain for nearly a year, they are not too difficult to start. The idle speed is just a little unstable, but there is no problem from the engine sound.

After the two vehicles were started one after another, they started to modify the vehicles. Chen Haitao was using a wind welding flame to cut the steel plates. Since it was a temporary modification, there was no need to worry too much. The steel plates were mainly used to protect the cab, engine and fuel tank, and of course the wheels also needed to be protected.

Wu Bin and his team still had about two hours, and several people took turns to make temporary modifications, which only required welding the steel plates onto the car. There was no question of whether it was reasonable.

"Okay, now let's test drive the cars!" Chen Guangjun looked at the two trucks that had been modified to be somewhat ugly, but he was satisfied. He was originally a layman, and it was good enough to modify them like this. It was just welding steel plates, and anyone could do it. It didn't matter whether they were sturdy or not or not.

Wu Bin climbed onto the heavy-duty van to try it out. Apart from the MAN RV, this was the second heavy-duty vehicle he had touched. However, the RV was an automatic transmission with a very well-tuned chassis, while this car was a manual transmission. Let alone any tuning, a car that could move and pull goods was a good one!

After trying for a while, Wu Bin found that he had not mastered the gear position well. The gear gap of the car was too worn, which resulted in the inability to accurately shift into the corresponding gear. He had to choose a certain timing.

"Captain, can you do it?" Chen Guangjun saw that Wu Bin's car was shaking and bouncing.

"Just barely! It's OK if you just keep the speed constant and don't need to change gears frequently!" Wu Bin didn't dare to guarantee it. To start a truck, you have to step on the accelerator hard and then release the clutch, which is different from a manual transmission car.

"How about changing someone?" Chen Guangjun suggested when he saw that Wu Bin was unsure.

"No, let's do it this way!" Wu Bin shook his head. Who should he replace? Dafeng had to operate the machine gun on the infantry fighting vehicle. Forget He Yuxin. It was impossible for her to do such a dangerous thing. She should drive the infantry fighting vehicle. She was more familiar with it than himself. Only Chen Haitao was left. He was not a member of the team. At least he did not say that he had joined Wu Bin. He did not include him in his own team, and he did not know how Chen Guangjun persuaded him.

Wu Bin insisted that there was no accident with Chen Guangjun. If he was one of his own, he would use him. If he was not one of his own, you could do whatever you wanted and he would not restrict you. This was quite interesting. Chen Guangjun knew that he ignored Chen Haitao's prejudice for his sake, otherwise that guy Dafeng would have fought with him long ago. However, after rescuing Qiao Xinghua and the others, Chen Haitao had to make a decision, to go or to stay?

Chen Guangjun had some understanding of Chen Haitao. Perhaps he still wanted to go back to the shelter, but he could no longer go back. In the end, if he insisted, they could only part ways.

It is a miracle that it took nearly two hours to modify the two cars. Although it was just a demonstration, the time was just right. Now is different from before. There are many restrictions on humans at night, and biological beings are instinctively afraid of the dark. Red-clothed Man will be busy tonight.
