Chapter 248 General Cleaning
Miles wanted to ask about the specific combat mission, but thinking of the military's confidentiality orders, he couldn't ask.
Under the joint construction of Kate and a group of deployed soldiers and civilian servicemen, the Tianming Army has moved towards regularization from a makeshift civilian armed force at the beginning.
Daryl was just about to say a few more words to Miles when the walkie-talkie on his waist received a call from headquarters.
"Captain Daryl, headquarters has sent an armored force to Charlotte City. You need to serve as the vanguard to scout and clear the route around the airport."
"Got it. When will the team arrive?"
Daryl didn't avoid Miles. There was no confidentiality level for the expansion of Charlotte City. People would soon know that the military was coming anyway.
"Before 4 p.m." said the communications officer.
Daryl ended the contact and blew a whistle to call all the resting soldiers.
Dozens of soldiers wearing military uniforms and advanced bulletproof vests put on their respective equipment and gathered next to the armored vehicles.
"Our mission this time is to clear the roads around the airport. Headquarters will send people here soon! The search team can't leave all the mess to the armored forces! Do you understand what I mean?"
Daryl looked at his soldiers and shouted.
"clear!!!"
A group of soldiers responded in unison, and as Daryl's order to prepare was given, they began to take up their respective posts, and the search team was ready to set off.
Daryl put on his tactical helmet and mask, and put on his removed arm and leg armor. This operation would most likely involve fighting against the zombies outside. Clearing the streets was not just about killing the zombies, but also about clearing possible large obstacles.
The road sections after the disaster were like a pile of shit, and some sections were filled with abandoned cars and corpses. The search team had to quickly come to a conclusion about what the routes around the airport were like, and clear out suitable routes for the troops to move. This was the search team's current task.
Miles called out to the militia, and a group of big men in stab-proof combat uniforms shouted, put on their spare equipment and began to move.
Daryl did not stop Miles. The search team was not large in number, and the headquarters saw that there were no regular troops available in Charlotte, so they forced some tasks on the search team. Otherwise, the search team would not be responsible for clearing the roads.
When Zhang Qiang formed the search team, his attitude was very clear. The search team was only responsible for searching for supplies and personnel, and later he added the responsibility of promoting the will of the Tianming position.
After the search team was handed over to Daryl, Daryl took on some tasks on his own initiative, which showed that he was quite kind-hearted. In fact, Daryl had the right to refuse to accept tasks beyond his duties.
"Test the channel to confirm that everyone can communicate."
Daryl pointed to the intercom on Miles' shoulder and gave a reminder.
After the test, Miles asked the remaining militia to open the gate of the supermarket community, and a convoy led by infantry armored vehicles drove towards the highway.
After a while, the convoy approached the airport and a cruel scene appeared in everyone's sight.
The wreckage of several huge passenger planes and collapsed buildings were piled up together. The road was blocked by building debris that had risen into a hill. Zombies were staggering aimlessly, stepping on the ruins that were like a hill, and moving towards the depths of the ruins.
Daryl stopped the convoy. The commander of the infantry fighting vehicle observed the outside world and pointed at the wreckage of the plane mixed with the ruins on the electronic screen and said:
"It looked like it had been shot down."
"shoot down?"
Daryl looked at the wreckage of the plane on the screen. The burnt black fuselage was indeed riddled with holes, and there was more than one broken wound on the main fuselage.
"This road is blocked, cross it out."
Daryl didn't think too much about it. He just asked the recorder to mark the route to the airport on the map. The search team still needed to find a suitable route for the troops from headquarters to pass.
The convoy turned around and left the road. A group of zombies were attracted by the roar of the vehicles. They twisted their rotten faces and began to walk out of the ruins one by one.
The search team ignored the horde of zombies following behind them. Daryl and his team had been away from Atlanta for a long time, and the machine gun bullets were running out. The search team could only replenish rifle ammunition from the outside world, and the amount was limited.
The convoy turned away from the crash site and circled to another road shown on the map. This time there were no accidents and the road was clear and unobstructed.
The infantry armored vehicle knocked down the zombies blocking the road, and the heavy explosion-proof tires crushed the rotten corpses one by one, and black rotten blood splattered everywhere.
The vehicles behind drove along the road lined with zombie patties, and it was very safe.
The convoy drove safely to the outskirts of the airport, and Daryl asked the recorder to report the route.
Carol sat in the infantry armored vehicle and asked Daryl, "Darryl, is our mission complete? Where are we going next? Should we go back?"
Daryl thought for a moment and said, "Lead the team into the airport. The search team will go into the airport to clear out the zombies, and the militia will go to the terminal."
Carol didn't think much about it. Cleaning up zombies was a common occurrence for the Destiny Army. She said calmly, "Then let's do it."
"Team 1, go down and open the gate! We'll need the facilities here in the future, so we can't destroy them casually!"
Daryl gave the order, and the rear door of the infantry fighting vehicle opened immediately. A team of soldiers rushed out of the infantry fighting vehicle and headed straight for the barbed wire gate leading to the airport.
The airport had undoubtedly been without power for a long time, and the soldiers could only force open the barbed wire door and use their arms to prop up the lowered electric gate.
There were some scattered zombies around the airport entrance. After hearing the sound of the convoy arriving, they kept surrounding the airport entrance. Daryl and the soldiers of Team 2 rushed out of the armored vehicle and shot the slowly approaching zombies with silenced pistols, leaving a safe working space for Team 1.
"HOOHAUH!!!"
Among a group of scattered zombies, a short assassin zombie suddenly jumped high and jumped onto the shoulder of a zombie.
Daryl was already familiar with the calls of various mutated zombies. It was just like hunting, the hunter could tell the type and gender of the prey by the calls of the prey.
"A mutant assassin zombie was spotted at 3 o'clock!! Fire freely! Concentrate your fire and kill it first!"
The moment Daryl discovered the assassin zombie, he loudly changed the combat orders.
A group of soldiers put down their pistols, picked up the rifles hanging on their bodies, and fired at the assassin zombies. At this moment, let alone saving ammunition, eliminating the threat of mutant zombies was the top priority.
Daryl immediately used the walkie-talkie to inform Miles, asking him to pay attention to the area around the team and not let the zombies get within thirty meters of the convoy. No one could guarantee that there were no other assassin zombies mixed in with the zombies.
Monsters like assassin zombies are extremely cunning, and their actions sometimes have clear purpose. Daryl is now worried that this assassin zombie that jumped out on its own initiative is covering for other assassin zombies of the same kind!
