Preparations Before Departure
Chapter 625:Preparations Before Departure
Chen Bin and Da Fei flew to the south side of the "Arctic Village", and that direction was the "glass greenhouse" of the trust station and soilless cultivated green vegetables.
On the way, the two saw the white-chewed black geese, the bird is relatively large, with a wingspan of more than one meter, they are a typical cold water seabird, cold, like to live in the bay, river port and other places.
A white-cheeked black geese budding on the tundra, very cute, the big fly wanted to go over and catch it, but unexpectedly it was pulled by Chen Bin.
“Professor Xia specifically said that we should go out and avoid animals in the polar regions as much as possible, and be careful not to destroy the original environment here.”
Xia Yunli said these words when the big fly was also present, but his heart did not care much, because in his opinion, the outside world has been beyond recognition, the natural environment here in the polar region is still important?
Of course, Chen Bin's words can generally be heard, he nodded, and Chen Bin went around a circle to avoid the range of chick activities.
On the way to the past, I had not found it until the two people arrived near the "glass greenhouse" and saw that the post office, bar and even the commissary were all available.However, from the business hours on the brand, these convenience facilities are open regularly.
There was a gunshot in the direction of the Yellow River station, and Chen Bin and Da Fei looked there and found that the soldiers who entered the two research stations next to them had found the zombies.The two research stations are the Bagan Station and Oranke Station next to the Yellow River Station, and the zombies found inside should be the researchers who stayed here last year.
There is nothing unusual in the "glass greenhouse", and the vegetables that were cultivated before have been rotted and dried up.Nearby bars and commissaries are some wine and specialty food, Chen Bin and Da Fei managed to pocket a small amount of material after killing a few zombies.
Next their goal is the letter station, the area of the credit station is not large, the house building is also very monotonous, is a layer of red wall red tile bungalow.Although the letter of trust is built early, their country has invested little in the polar expedition, so the facilities of the research station are relatively simple.
The decorative style of the doorway has a European-style taste, and the door is also wooden, a bit like the style of a country house in Europe and the United States.Chen Bin and Da Fei broke the door lock, and then knocked on the door, the smell of the house was very unpleasant, and the two had to return to the outside, after half a day.
Because the door was closed before, the temperature inside was higher than outside, the inside of the body was already rotting to the appearance, and a few zombies roamed in the dark corners, until the sound came from the door to attract their attention.
“There are zombies,” Chen Bin reminded Da Fei.
The two men took up their guns and began to aim at the zombies that swung past, shooting them down to the ground without mercy.
Then they went into the house again and began to patrol carefully.There was no light in the house, and Chen Bin did not find where the generator was, so he did not dare to go too deep.He and Da Fei searched only a few rooms on the periphery and went back outside, abandoning the search.
"The smell is too fucking bad," although the door has been opened to let the house through the wind, but after flying out, still can't help but complain, "I heard that the letter people do not use paper to go to the toilet."
"What is it?"With hands?”Chen Bin asked.
He nodded his head and choked a few times, "There is a rotten smell in the house, and there is a bit of curry..."
“Don’t talk,” Chen Bin quickly closed the door again and pulled him out of here.
When the two returned to the Yellow River Station with the materials collected from the bar and the commissary, several polar trucks had been parked at the door, which were relatively close in appearance, but the colors were different, and many modified traces could be seen on the body.
Xia Yunli selected several white-colored bodies from those Arctic Trucks Arctic trucks to be used as a means of transportation to the city of Longyear.
"Professor Xia, there are three red carriages larger," Xu Yihang on Xia Yunli's choice of some curiosity, in his view, the number of people on this trip, the appearance of these cars look the same distance, the difference may be the size of the back of the car and so on.
“Their models are different, the red ones you’ve got from the garage at Brighton’s Glencoa station, right?”Xia Yunli asked.
Seeing several warriors nodding, Xia Yunli continued, “You can look at their tires, the cars at the Brighton Glansk station are the AT38, and their tires are 38 inches.The white body of these cars, if I am not mistaken, Giproscoco Station, their tires are 44 inches, and the chassis and transformation concept are not the same as the AT38 model.
“Is there such a door?”Xu Yihang came to interest, he just carefully observed, the red body of the car is indeed a little smaller.
"The Arctic Trucks AT38 is only the most advanced civilian program in the current modification system, the AT37 is similar to it, and this car can only be regarded as an off-road vehicle that can explore the polar regions."The AT44 is a research-level modification case, the performance is close to the extreme in this aspect, and its chassis system is rebuilt rather than transformed.Of course, its price is more than four times that of the AT38, which means that an AT44 can buy more than four AT38s for money.”
“Hear money, it’s so big!”You can get some tongues.
"Most of the territory of Gipros is in the Arctic Circle, of course, for this side of the scientific expedition will attach great importance, and their national strength is not weaker than China, it is not surprising to have this hand," Xia Yunli's remarks seem to explain Zhang's surprise.
Now, compared to the two, no one will have doubts about Xia Yunli's choice in terms of vehicles.
"Our own Zhanyang-powered all-terrain polar vehicle is a backup vehicle for this operation, its speed and endurance are very good, and it can easily cross the vertical barrier of 0.6 meters and the 1.5-meter wide trench, and can work in the -41 °C to 50 °C environment."Xia Yunli said after the Arctic Trucks Arctic Trucks continued to explain the main force of the operation - Zhanyang-powered all-terrain polar vehicle, "I set it as a back-up vehicle, in addition to its excellent performance, but also because of its own winch, more than 30 meters of cable one end in the car, the other end fixed in it, when the other vehicles in the fleet appear in the situation, you can rely on their own strength to achieve drag, self-help and mutual rescue."12 people in the car, the insulation in the car is also very good, can always maintain about 10 to 20 °C.
“Please select a few highly skilled drivers to serve as drivers on our trip, and I will give them simple training so that we can get acquainted with these polar vehicles as soon as possible.”
Chen Bin and Da Fei looked at each other, both of them embarrassedly scratched their heads, their driving skills are still taught by Lao Wei and monkeys, so now they are not on the table at all.
Fortunately, several skilled soldiers from the military stood out, Xu Yihang is also one of them, the number of drivers is enough, Xia Yunli then assigned vehicles to everyone.
After a busy time to eat, we did not go to the Wangwan company catering center, but chose to open a group in the Yellow River Station, because tomorrow is about to start, the next few days will be spent in the wild ice and snow, so this meal is also prepared for the unusually rich.
"Eat more, after today, the next may not be able to eat hot food for a while," Xia Yunli said to the soldiers, "in addition, if anyone has physical discomfort symptoms please come forward immediately, we will arrange for you to receive observation and treatment in the Yellow River station base, because the next trip is very difficult, the body of people on the road can not be effectively treated, the situation will be very dangerous."
The soldier who had suffered minor injuries while chasing pirates near Diomede Island was arranged to stay, although he insisted that his body could do it, but for safety reasons, Xu Yihang did not grant him his request to accompany him.
In the afternoon, everyone tested the car on the ground near the Yellow River Station, and although the drivers selected before were skilled, they were all the first time to touch the polar car, so Xia Yunli had to point one or two from time to time.When the Zhangyang-powered all-terrain polar car was pulled out of the garage, people who saw it for the first time could not help but make an exclaim.
“It’s...” For a moment, I didn’t know what word to use to describe the shape of this car.
“It’s like two armored vehicles pulled together,” Chen commented on the appearance of the Zhangyang-powered all-terrain polar vehicle.
Seeing Xia Yun standing on the driver's vehicle characteristics, the two rushed up to the compact.
"Zhanyang-powered all-terrain polar vehicle is used in front and rear double-car cascades, previously only in some parts of the country, and later for the polar special climate and geographical environment, and then for the polar low temperature start, electrical components to withstand low temperature, body insulation, multi-functional polar equipment supporting and many other technical transformation, so now can also be a show here."We've used it before and it feels good."
Xia Yunli did not say that this Zhanyang-powered all-terrain polar vehicle is a cooperation between Zhanyang Heavy Industry and China Polar Research Center, which lasted seven years, and after more than 20,000 experiments to complete local manufacturing, although the process is difficult, but the technical foundation can be described as very solid.
"After departure, we basically have all the places in the car for meals, so each car requires each car to carry enough food, and you can stop on the way, but try not to get off."There are many polar bears on Spitsbergen, and most of them are located in the east and south, near the city of Longyearbyen, where the doomsday seed bank is located.We were safe in the car, but once we got out of the car, it was hard to say.A lot of people may think polar bears are very budding, but I'm going to tell you that they don't have anything to do with the buddhas."
"The polar bear is the largest land carnivore today, and the adult polar bear stands up to 2.8 meters, which is the concept, well, is the height of one floor of our Yellow River station."Xia Yunli said, taking out another iron sealed jar, "they can easily tear open this iron jar as easily as peeling a banana."
