"Okay, let's take a look. Do you know where the warehouses of the two houses you mentioned earlier are located?"
Welles entered the room with an inexplicable expression and looked around the surrounding environment differently. He also felt that the design here was quite stunning.
After looking around, his eyes still landed on the map.
"Is this... is this a detailed map of the Appalachian Mountains?"
There was a vast amount of information as far as the eye could see, and Welles' brain couldn't process so much information in such a short time. After about three minutes, he finally received all the information on the map.
With his eyes wide open, Welles pointed to the black dots on the two maps.
"Is this map the location information of the warehouse in the mountains? It should be correct, these two places are the two special weapons warehouses that would be used in case of war."
The three big men in the room looked at each other for a long time and at the same time showed a surprised expression.
"Hahaha, this is a great rainbow shit."
Even Hanna, who was quietly watching in the background, looked uneasy.
But soon, the three sat down to discuss this information.
"A total of 25 vehicles arrived here this time... Since this place is good, I plan to use it as a temporary base to search for nearby supply points calmly and without rush."
"The purpose this time is very simple. The main task is to discover the classification of these material points, and then we must ensure that all the vehicles are filled with supplies before returning, and if it is not enough, then we must find more trucks to transport all these supplies to South Carolina and from there they will be moved by cargo helicopters."
"Understood!"
...
In the following days, Airon's group searched successively at all supply points that were relatively close to the surrounding area. There were three points in total, and all of them were filled with very good memories. All of this added up to a total of fifteen trucks between weapons and ammunition, and five for food.
This unexpected scene confused everyone a little, they did not expect the amount of supplies to be so great, in just one point the amount of supplies was terrifying, and in the remaining two, a large amount of supplies was also found.
Suddenly, everyone was a little overwhelmed by the problems of happiness. After all, they could not live in this remote place even from South Carolina. Away from the S.C.T domains, unexpected accidents could easily occur.
This place was remote and Airon did not want to use cargo helicopters as it could expose the domains of his new base where they were still stabilizing.
What could be done about it?
Airon had also been thinking about it lately. In the end, before Airon requested air support, Welles suggested using the whole village where the mansion where Merle had lived as a base temporarily, and then after finding nearby trucks, they would move everything to the base at the same time.
After considering many aspects, Airon gathered his group and they all decided on an optimal plan.
Knoxville, which is only a few dozen kilometers away, is a good place to investigate. Some people plan to gather a wave of transport vehicles from nearby cities and then load some more cars before moving back to Atlanta, which was the closest route.
But before that, or continuously, they are looking for a suitable place not too far from Atlanta to establish a temporary base, so that materials from the area can be continuously moved to that base and then moved in large quantities to Atlanta.
This way, the soldiers have a shelter here, which can be protected from the wind and rain, and most importantly, their safety is guaranteed.
Now that the plan has been finalized, the next step is easy to handle.
In the following days, Airon brought a large number of transport vehicles from nearby cities with several teams of people and gathered a convoy of fifty vehicles. This convoy will return directly to Atlanta.
The remaining dozens of people went to Knoxville under his personal leadership, and finally Merle, because he had his own mission, could not go to Knoxville with him, but followed the convoy back to the base first. Taking a squad of people and driving the modified RV south, Merle's presence was no longer necessary.
Merle's mission here has ended, and the next goal is the south, possibly Texas, and if possible, to observe unexplored areas that Airon's group had left behind.
Indeed, Aorn knew the situation in the south, so he left this time and specifically told Merle to be careful when he arrived there. After all, the people there are tough, and maybe only people like Merle can adapt to those places.
The large convoy of fifty vehicles slowly drove towards Atlanta, and everyone was extremely satisfied with the full supplies. Merle led ten people to act as escorts for the convoy and escort the group back.
...
Knoxville is an American city located in Knox County in the state of Tennessee, being the third largest city in the state, only behind Memphis and Nashville.
According to the 2010 census, Knoxville has a population of 178,874 inhabitants in the city and 704,230 in the metropolitan area. It is located in the area where the Holston and French Broad rivers converge, giving rise to the birth of the Tennessee River.
But now those beautiful places were quiet.
If someone looks down from the top of the city, they can see that there are still many figures wandering the streets. A wide river runs through the south of the city. It is the Tennessee River. A bridge over the river connects both sides. On the riverbank, there are several cars heading towards the city from the bridge.
Seeing that the convoy was about to enter the city, the speed of several vehicles abruptly slowed down and they slowly stopped at the head of the bridge.
Several people got out of the cars, and some soldiers also got out of the other cars to eliminate walkers.
"Airon, it seems like there are a lot of walkers in the city!"
After crossing the bridge, there is a main street in the city. Standing on the bridge, you can clearly see a horde of densely packed walkers.
"Let's find a foothold on the outskirts first, we have to secure a building, that one would be good and take it as a temporary base of operations."
As he spoke, Airon pointed to a more than 20-story office building not far away.
The convoy set off again and headed to that location, a group of more than thirty people quickly got out of the car and ran with machetes.
Today's soldiers can be considered experienced in many battles, they are constantly going out and protecting the base, they have to experience battles almost every day, which makes them immune to such scenes.
And the walkers around the building were attracted by the noise, and they all surrounded the front on this side. Everyone's hand movements accelerated a bit, and they quickly cleared the nearby walkers, and then several people lifted the nearest corpses to the door, and then everyone ran towards the building.
Airon's group was very experienced, some people carrying the corpses to the glass doors took out a knife, and quickly opened the belly of several walkers.
The smell emanating was a pungent stench, but these people didn't even frown, skillfully dragging the corpse several times in front of the door, staining the door with blood and bits of flesh, and then quickly hiding inside the building.
Until they entered the building, the nearest walker was still more than 30 meters away.
When these walkers arrived at the building's door, the aura of the living people here had long been covered by the dirty blood on the ground. They wandered in front of the door dazedly and then began to sway towards another place.
As for the people who had entered the building, they had already reached the hallway and started cleaning from the bottom up.
If other survivors saw this scene, they would definitely be surprised by the skilled techniques of these people. It seems that only experienced people can understand these small details so well.
No, even experienced people rarely move at this speed and with this kind of coordination.
