Chapter 434 Shangyang City
Chen Beier and Wei Qiunan got into the cockpit of the Heavy Cavalry Guard and controlled the Heavy Cavalry Guard to board the Vulture Armed Transport.
The cabin of the Vulture Armed Transport was still very large, just enough to accommodate the Heavy Cavalry Guard.
Li Meng and Zhang Qingshan were the same, each controlling a Heavy Cavalry Guard to board the transport.
As the rear hatch of the Vulture Armed Transport slowly closed, the logistics personnel in the hangar also became busy.
With a "click", the huge gate of the harbor slowly opened to both sides amid the sound of mechanical operation.
The engine roared, and the Vulture Armed Transport behind the gate started the engine. With the rotation of the propeller, a strong air wave swept around. In just over ten seconds, the Vulture Armed Transport slowly took off from the ground.
At a height of less than two meters from the ground, the Vulture Armed Transport moved forward and finally flew away from the gate and entered the vast sky outside.
As soon as it left the gate, the Vulture Armed Transport descended at a 60-degree angle and rushed into the extreme temperature layer.
In the cabin, the mercenaries of the two squads were firmly fixed in their seats, and the heavy cavalry guards were also attached to the fixtures on both sides.
A few minutes later, above the pitch-black earth, in silence, the Vulture armed transport aircraft flew out of the polar temperature layer and flew in the dark sky.
Although it was invisible, the pilot in the cockpit could observe through night vision goggles and terrain scanning radar.
"Captain, we have left the polar temperature layer and are looking for Shangyang City."
While reporting, the pilot used various observation instruments to search for Shangyang City.
A few minutes later, the pilot's voice sounded again in the communicator.
"Captain, we have found Shangyang City, about three kilometers away from us."
Standing high and seeing far, the pilot saw a series of faint lights on the land in the east.
In the original continent, only humans can have this kind of orange-yellow light.
In the cockpit of the Heavy Cavalry Guard, Li Meng said: "Don't be too close to Shangyang City, nor too far away. Find a place to land where you can observe Shangyang City."
Not too far away, but also have a good observation line of sight... Found it.
On the topographic map, the pilot found a good place for observation.
A few minutes later, in the dark, on the flat land on the top of a mountain, the Vulture armed transport plane slowly landed.
The air waves rolled, snowflakes flew all over the sky, and in the dark, the Vulture armed transport plane successfully landed on the top of the mountain.
Amid the sound of mechanical operation, the tail hatch slowly opened.
Controlling the Heavy Cavalry Guard, the four walked out of the transport plane, stepped on the ground with their metal feet, and entered the darkness.
"Each team dispersed around and paid attention to alert, don't be too far away from the transport plane."
With Li Meng's order, the mercenaries followed closely and left the transport plane.
Before appearing, the mercenaries had made corresponding preparations. Their helmets were equipped with night vision equipment, which allowed them to see in the dark.
The same is true for the Heavy Cavalry Guard. There is an additional barrel device on the sighting lens, which is a large night vision device.
Although it is extremely dark outside, Li Meng can see the situation around the top of the mountain in the cockpit, but everything is gray and white, only one color.
After leaving the transport plane, the mercenaries scattered, and Li Meng and his team of four drove the Heavy Cavalry Guard to the edge of a cliff.
"Captain, is that Shangyang City?"
The voice from Wei Qiunan in the communicator made Li Meng look into the dark distance.
Standing high and seeing far, Li Meng saw a dazzling array of lights between two mountains a few kilometers away.
This is located behind Shangyang City. Looking into the distance, you can see a lake. On both sides of the lake, you can see a series of buildings on the slopes of the mountains. In the farthest place, you can see a city wall nearly 100 meters high.
There is a river just below the mountain. The river connects to the lake in Shangyang City. There is a hydropower station at the junction of the river and the lake. This is probably why Shangyang City can use electricity.
That hydroelectric power station also became the wall behind Shangyang City, but it was shorter, about 60 to 70 meters high.
"The people of the mountain city really know how to choose a place. This is indeed a good place. There are water and mountains. Taking advantage of the terrain, it is easy to be ignored. It is not close to the city, and there is no need to worry about the threat of strange beasts."
Looking at Shangyang City in the distance, Zhang Qingshan said, marveling at the scale of Shangyang City.
How can it not be surprising to have such a large city with hundreds of thousands of people in the original continent.
Shangyang City is not Black Flag City. There is no artificial sun here. Although there is electricity, people still face the threat of cold. Moreover, with a scale of hundreds of thousands of people, how do they solve the problem of food and drink?
In the communicator, Chen Beier's childish voice sounded.
"Captain, the city's defense is good. Look at the city walls. There are many cannon-like weapons."
Yes, Shangyang City's defense is indeed good. On the front and back walls, you can see cannons placed in the open air. They are very bulky and have a large caliber. There is a cannon almost every few dozen meters.
On the city walls, you can occasionally see some soldiers patrolling.
After observing for a while, about half an hour, Li Meng ended this reconnaissance.
Retracting his gaze from afar, Li Meng said: "Let's go, let's go back, and we will visit the owner here tomorrow."
As he said, Li Meng controlled the heavy cavalry guards to turn around and walk towards the Vulture armed transport plane.
The purpose of this time is to confirm the location of Shangyang City so as to prepare for future actions. Li Meng does not intend to do anything unnecessary tonight.
What does the captain mean?
Visit the owner here?
The three of them were puzzled and hurriedly followed and left the cliff.
While walking towards the Vulture transport plane, Li Meng ordered: "Each team should return to the transport plane immediately. The team leader should remember to count the number of people and don't leave anyone behind."
With Li Meng's order, the mercenaries scattered on the top of the surrounding mountain began to evacuate the Vulture armed transport plane.
More than ten minutes later, the rumbling sound of the engine echoed in the darkness. For a while, the air waves rolled and the snowflakes flew. The Vulture armed transport plane slowly took off and flew to the distant sky. The speed was getting faster and faster, and the altitude was getting higher and higher. Finally, it plunged into the extreme temperature layer thousands of meters high.
Not long after, at an altitude of more than 10,000 meters, a Vulture armed transport plane rushed out of the extreme temperature layer and approached the airship floating above the clouds not far away.
From the No. 1 harbor, the Vulture armed transport plane flew into the hangar and landed steadily on the ground.
As the hatch at the rear of the Vulture armed transport plane opened, four heavy cavalry guards and mercenaries walked out of the cabin.
After parking the heavy cavalry guard in the maintenance area, Li Meng opened the cockpit of the heavy cavalry guard and got out of it.
"Captain, what does it mean to visit the owner of Shangyang City tomorrow? Are we going to have a direct contact with Shangyang City?"
When Li Meng left the cockpit and stepped onto the deck, Chen Bei'er and Wei Qiunan also got out of the cockpit and walked over here.
When he came to Li Meng's side, Wei Qiunan asked.
