Following behind were the RVs of Third Uncle and others, with Ju Tianrui and his group driving modified off-road vehicles and buses.

Xiao Jun drove the tanker, passing through without a hitch.

Old Bi raised the drone, and its humming resonated.

Outside the base, a crowd of cooperative and extra staff had gathered long before, seeing them off.

Among the crowd, Dongfeng stared blankly at those tanks and armored vehicles, as if her jaw would drop in astonishment.

Beside her, Uncle Wan had a shocked look in his eyes, mumbling, "So this is the strength of Big Camphor Tree Base, this is simply..."

The Tiger Head boy looked at Li Yu and the others with admiration, his eyes sparkling with stars.

Meanwhile, in the middle of the convoy, Zhong Chuchu and Shen Xiaoxiao still seemed to be dreaming.

Initially, when they heard Li Yu say he was going to Nanyang to deal with the Motorcycle Gang, they thought Li Yu was crazy.

To them, the Motorcycle Gang had become a nightmare, a name they were unwilling to mention.

Yet today, seeing the tanks and armored vehicles emerging from the Inner City, they were stunned.

They had always been outside the Big Camphor Tree Base, never venturing inside.

Only now did they realize that the Big Camphor Tree Base was not as simple as they had imagined.

The strength was terrifying beyond belief.

Inside the vehicle.

Shen Xiaoxiao excitedly said to Zhong Chuchu, "Chuchu sis, this is amazing! Who would’ve thought Big Camphor Tree Base had such terrifying strength, with tank armored vehicles and cannons? I’m completely dumbfounded. Why have we never seen these before?"

Zhong Chuchu smiled wryly and said, "This is beyond my imagination too, but this is good. With firepower like this, the Motorcycle Gang won’t stand a chance. It’s payback!"

Thinking of their comrades who died in Oil City, the hatred in her eyes grew stronger.

"This time, I’d like to see how the Motorcycle Gang will cope!"

The speed of the tanks was not fast, but this was no issue for Li Yu and his team.

Their journey was not about speed, but about achieving their objectives.

There were two objectives for this operation.

One, annihilate the Motorcycle Gang.

Two, seize the oil.

But for Li Yu, there was a third objective.

That was to kill Guan Zhongjin.

Before departure, Li Yu had briefed the key members of the convoy.

No prisoners, kill on sight.

When Zhong Chuchu heard this command, a chill crept into her heart.

She hadn’t expected Li Yu, always polite and gentle at the base, to be so bloodthirsty.

However, it was this realization that gave her more confidence in their battle against the Motorcycle Gang this time.

Firepower was just one aspect.

In Doomsday, only those ruthless enough could deal with the ruthless.

Only by being more brutal than the enemy could one defeat the fearsome foes.

On this note, Li Yu was always like this.

The convoy moved from the rural roads to the national highway.

The winding convoy, seen from the drone’s perspective, was quite spectacular.

"Attention all groups, we’re conducting a walkie-talkie test now. Please respond if received."

"Special Forces received."

"Tank One received."

"Tank Two received."

"Assault Group One received."

.......

Upon hearing the responses from the groups, Li Yu instructed Dapao to slow down, letting Luo and their tanks move to the front.

Then, he had Xiao Liu, who was with Zhong Chuchu and her group, bring up the vehicles to follow right behind the Unimog.

After all, Zhong Chuchu and her group came from Nanyang, and they would have more insights into the Motorcycle Gang’s situation.

Even though before departure, Li Yu had conversed multiple times with Zhong Chuchu and the others, letting them explain the Motorcycle Gang’s conditions.

But Li Yu and the others had never truly seen the Motorcycle Gang, thus still needed them nearby for identification.

The imposing convoy passed by the northern national highway station.

Li Yu rolled down the window, and upon seeing the convoy, Deng Ben’s heart was ablaze with passion, his face flushed from excitement.

Deng Ben vigorously waved both hands towards the convoy, signaling.

Li Yu extended his hand out the window, waving.

Upon seeing the iconic Unimog and Li Yu’s wave, Deng Ben grew even more excited.

Even after the convoy left, Deng Ben continued to gaze in the direction of its departure, standing still for a long time.

The other stationed personnel beside him were also very thrilled.

"Brother Deng, our base is so strong! I’m so happy! I just wonder where they’re heading."

Deng Ben smiled and replied, "Oil, they’re going to bring back oil, and nothing our base sets out to do has ever failed!"

"Yeah." The stationed personnel beside him deeply agreed, nodding heavily.

In the RV behind the Unimog, Ant was busy cleaning his automatic rifle.

Old Qin was driving, while Xu Chengcai was holding a book, reading.

"I say Jackals, how’s Xiao Yong doing at the Inner City school?"

Old Qin glanced at Jackals through the rearview mirror, who was reading a book on youth education, and asked.

Jackals slowly put the book down, smiling, "I haven’t asked how he’s doing, but I know he’s quite happy."

Third Uncle, upon hearing this, joyfully said, "Xiao Yong, that kid, from what I’ve seen, he’s top of the class in both the close-combat and cold weapons courses."

Jackals looked somewhat proud, but humbly laughed and said, "He’s still young, can’t really tell much yet. Also, Xiao Yong mentioned there’s a girl named Xuanxuan, about his age, who’s much better than him, topping every subject."

Third Uncle paused upon hearing Xuanxuan’s name.

He sighed and said, "She’s indeed a promising talent. Her combat abilities now wouldn’t lose to someone with three years’ military experience. Especially her shooting skills, quite impressive."

Upon hearing Third Uncle’s praise, Ant and Old Qin were somewhat surprised.

If someone praised by Third Uncle, then she must be extraordinary.

Considering what Jackals just said, if Xuanxuan was around Xiao Yong’s age, she should be only eleven or twelve years old.

How did such a young child accomplish this?

Perhaps noticing their surprise, Third Uncle slowly spoke, "This young girl has quite a harsh past."

"Before the outbreak of the apocalypse, this Xuanxuan wasn’t valued at home due to family preference for boys over girls. Later when her father divorced and remarried, her stepmother treated her harshly.

During the outbreak, her family tragically died at the mouth of Zombies, while she survived by sheer luck while feeding the cattle.

Later, she was with villagers who didn’t care for her, nearly starved to a skeleton.

Some incidents occurred at the gate of Big Camphor Tree Base, where Xiao Yu saved her. She’s been staying at the base ever since."

Tomorrow, we’ll have a massive update, requesting monthly tickets. Thank you everyone.
