Doomsday Super Merchant

Chapter 193 The maiden voyage of the airship

As early as the day before Sun Lei asked for help, after nearly a month of construction, the first airship in the wasteland settlement was finally completed.

It has a total length of 125 meters, a head diameter of 43 meters, a load capacity of 25 tons, 110 positions, and a crew of 17. When necessary, 180 people can be squeezed into the cabin like a sardine can.

.It can stay in the air for a maximum time of ten days, and its maximum speed is 130 kilometers per hour.

The originally completed airship required a certain amount of testing and trial time, but in an emergency, its trial would be to directly support the Grand Canyon settlement.

If you want to rescue the Grand Canyon Settlement, it does not mean that bringing hundreds of soldiers to the Grand Canyon Settlement can stop the zombies. This is undoubtedly a drop in the bucket. Why can the Grand Canyon Settlement only use human walls to stop zombies? The biggest reason is,

It's just that they don't have enough weapons and ammunition.

So after some research, the mission of the airship's maiden voyage was to transport 200 machine guns, 100,000 rounds of ammunition, a large number of simple grenades, and 2,000 Type 81 rifles to the settlement of the Grand Canyon. I believe there are

With the support of this batch of weapons, the Grand Canyon settlement will greatly relieve the pressure caused by zombies, enough to support the arrival of ground troops in the wasteland settlement.

Given this batch of weapons, for the wasteland settlement, it is not actually in line with the subsequent merger and acquisition plan. However, an analysis by the analysis department made Zhou Yuanqiang finally decide to put the weapons into the Grand Canyon settlement. Because of the analysis

The report pointed out that in its current form, without effective support, the Grand Canyon settlement would not be able to survive the arrival of ground troops that would take two days to arrive.

What's more, the analysis report also pointed out that this batch of weapons was allocated only 100,000 rounds of ammunition. After consumption, when the Grand Canyon settlement is rescued, there will be no more than 5,000 rounds left, which will not pose a threat to the merger.

With Zhou Yuanqiang's consent, the airship, named the Wasteland, officially began its first voyage. It will cover a distance of more than 300 kilometers and safely deliver this batch of supplies to the settlement in the Grand Canyon.

At the same time, it also has another mission, which is to carry a large number of aerial bombs and will be responsible for the bombing mission against zombies.

The strategic location of the airship cannot be ignored by anyone. For the Chamber of Commerce, this is just the first airship. By then, a super airship with a load capacity of more than 500-1000 tons will be designed and built. Now this one, and hy-

1 fighter jet, like the Sha-1 light helicopter, is for technicians to practice and become familiar with.

What will truly determine their capabilities will be the next models, and future models will be the real strength of the Chamber of Commerce.

As the first airship of the Chamber of Commerce, its launch is of great significance, so Zhou Yuanqiang took important personnel of the Chamber of Commerce to attend the take-off ceremony of the Wasteland airship at the time of its take-off. Because it had to perform its mission.

, the ceremony was very simple, just putting a few ribbons on the airship, Zhou Yuanqiang gave the blessing of the Chamber of Commerce, and then slowly began to take off.

Not many people in the settlement know about the existence of airships.

The launch of the fleet just now was enough to shock people. People had not recovered yet and were all discussing. But before they could discuss a result, the giant airship began to slowly take off.

Appears in the sky over the settlement.

On the white airbag, the colorful umbrella mark of the Chamber of Commerce is so dazzling in the sun.

How long is 125 meters? Many people may not have an idea, but if you look up at the height of the 11th floor, and then imagine stacking three of these 11-story buildings, it will be nearly 125 meters. It might be possible to stand it up.

It's about 30 stories high, not very high. What if it floated in the air? Imagine how spectacular it would be?

The people who witnessed the airship "Wasteland" taking off were all as if they were petrified, staring at the airship in a daze.

Airplanes are very common, but for some people, they have never seen airships. In many cities, airship advertisements are not allowed to exist, and it is almost impossible to see them. Even if you have seen them, they are only a dozen meters away.

The small airship is inconspicuous in the sky.

But this Big Mac-like airship is different. The shock to people is absolutely huge. The pressure given by its huge body comes from the heart. No matter who it is, when they suddenly see this Big Mac, they will

I feel conquered by it. Although airplanes are more practical, they cannot be compared with airships in appearance. Especially this kind of rigid airship is full of angular beauty and reveals its majesty.

The wind speed in the wasteland area is not very high, which is the best place for airships to sail. When the wasteland lifted off to 3,000 meters, the engine started and flew towards the Grand Canyon settlement. It took two and a half hours of flight to reach the destination.

Can reach the Grand Canyon Settlement.

The airship is composed of 17 crew members, 8 soldiers who serve as throwers, and 5 spacecraft testers. They will be responsible for the operation of the entire airship.

The surname Tu is not included in the top 100 surnames. Today, the Chinese surname ranks 238th. But don’t think that there will be very few people with the surname Tu. They also occupy 0.03% of the Han population in the country.

. And Tulong is proud of his name, which is extremely domineering. At least he is grateful to his father who gave him this name.

Today, Tu Long is even more proud, because he has the honor to become the highest officer of the Wasteland airship. For this, he is grateful to the president who personally appointed him. Because without the support of the president, he would not be able to stand out from so many people.

Stand out among the elite competitors and become the coveted airship commander.

"Everyone does as we were trained, we can't let the president down!"

Tu Long used the communicator to inform everyone that this was a maiden voyage that could not fail, because it would represent whether the airship could gain a firm foothold in the Chamber of Commerce. In Tu Long's opinion, the role of airships in the apocalypse would definitely be greater than that of airplanes.

Importantly, it not only has strong transportation capabilities, but also carries a huge amount of bombs, and can release hundreds of tons of bombs anywhere within a few hours.

Think about it, what is the concept of hundreds of tons of bombs? Even a city is enough to turn it into ruins.

After sailing for half an hour, a group of black spots appeared in the sky, and the roaring sound could be heard clearly by everyone on the airship. But Tulong and the others were not afraid, because they believed that under the sky in the wasteland,

The only ones flying in the sky are the planes of my own chamber of commerce.

Sure enough, after a while, these returning fighters roared past the airship, and through the window, you could see the pilots saluting the airship.

Facing the roaring fighter jets, Tulong's most helpless thing is the speed of the airship. Even if it uses engine propulsion, its size is too large, so it cannot be as fast as a compact fighter jet. I'm afraid this is the reason.

, which is the reason why airships gradually lose ground in an era of rapid development.

"Watch the wind direction!"

Tu Long vented his dissatisfaction with the fighter planes to the command airship, "We must complete this mission beautifully and let them know that they cannot compare with airships in bombing. Even when the bombers come out, they cannot compare with airships."

compared to."

After the fighter planes returned home, they had a large number of ground crews, and they were well prepared. Only ten minutes after landing, the fighter planes began to taxi on the runway, rushed into the sky, and formed a triangular echelon.

Continue flying towards the Grand Canyon settlement.

This will be the last performance today, because a transport vehicle composed of hundreds of cars is already flying towards the Grand Canyon settlement under the escort of several helicopters. Tomorrow's battle will consist of more than 3,000 elites.

The ground troops are the protagonists. The reserve of aerial bombs does not allow them to drop bombs for the third time. They must have enough bomb reserves to protect themselves.

The airship, which had been sailing for an hour and a half, was soon overtaken by fighter planes. Looking at the two fleets of aircraft that surpassed him within a moment, Tu Long was so angry that he stamped his feet.

Xu Dali's communication was connected to the airship, and he heard his proud laughter and said: "Captain Tu, don't worry, our aviation brigade only eats meat, the soup will still be left for you, so you can increase your speed.

slower."

Tu Long was stunned, and then yelled: "Dali, you bastard, when I get back to the settlement, I will challenge you, you are such a bastard." However, the only sound coming from the communicator was Xu Dali's laughter.

, and then the communication was disconnected, making Tulong want to drop the communicator.

But soon, Tu Long seemed to have thought of something. He could hardly sit still. He sneered and snickered, "Xu Dali, you bastard, just wait for me. As long as this idea is approved by the president,

Agreed, I must let you rely on me. Hum, fighter planes will be great, and when the time comes to build an aerial vehicle..."

Tu Long did not say any more. He kept rubbing his hands because he found that this idea was crazy, but it was not without the possibility of success.

After the fighter planes once again dropped all the bombs they carried and gathered to return home, the airship flying at an altitude of more than 3,000 meters, Tulong finally saw through the telescope the large crack in the wasteland of the Grand Canyon. The black zombies,

There are still a lot of them, like a layer of black covering the surroundings of the Grand Canyon.

"These bastards really only left me a plate of soup."

Through the telescope, Tu Long looked at the wretched battlefield. Countless zombies had been reduced to debris, and the dense craters should be the work of Xu Dali. Not a single giant zombie was seen on the entire battlefield. Although the zombies were

The offensive is still going on, but everyone can see that the zombies are already grasshoppers after the fall, and they won't be around for much longer.

After the order was given to shut down the main engine, the airship, which relied only on four small engines for propulsion, became silent and began to glide slowly in the sky, decelerating, and silently approaching the 3,000-meter sky above the settlement of the Grand Canyon.
