Chapter 69: Entering the Wolf's Den Again

Ten hours ago.

Zhang Wen looked at the largest airport in the Southwest.

Beside him was a group of engineers.

Zhang Wen had just received an order that if the Transport 20 evacuation plan succeeded.

Then they would transfer to this airport.

There was no other reason.

Within flight range, this was the airport with the best fire conditions and the best medical conditions.

Only this one.

To Zhang Wen's left were thirteen fire trucks from the airport fire brigade and countless firefighters.

To Zhang Wen's right were the people from the airport medical team, waiting in full battle array with medical kits in hand, and the city's hospitals had already made full preparations.

Prepared to treat injured people at any time.

Even because ordinary doctors had no experience with gunshot wounds and the like, the Northwest Military Region specially transferred an entire medical team composed of battlefield doctors over.

It could be said that full preparations had been made.

The atmosphere at the airport was extremely heavy.

The airport dispatch specially cleared half of the inner field, just so that all maintenance, fire, and medical teams could arrive at the first moment.

It could be said that they had taken great pains.

And in a separate waiting hall at the airport.

It was crowded with people who had rushed over from all directions.

Among them, some were crying loudly.

Some had dull expressions, unable to make any expressions anymore.

They were the families of the 400 people from the A Shou Guo project department and the 50 people from the embassy, a total of 450 people.

It was impossible not to notify them of such things.

The small waiting hall was almost crowded.

And there were still people rushing over from all directions.

Zhang Wen looked at his watch.

There were still two hours until the Transport 20 arrived at A Shou Guo.

It was these critical two hours.

Incomparably agonizing.

The unknown was the most terrifying thing.

Zhang Wen let out a breath.

He checked all the maintenance tools and spare parts in his hand over and over again.

Two and a half hours later.

A message finally came.

The Transport 20 had already picked up 450 people from the Great East.

It was on its way back.

This made the atmosphere much more relaxed.

The soldiers who learned the news, the moment they got the news.

Immediately transmitted the news to the people comforting the families in the waiting hall.

"Everyone, be quiet for a moment!"

"I have important news to announce!"

At this time, in the waiting hall, crying and shouting were deafening.

The person announcing the news had no choice but to stand high and shout.

As soon as everyone heard this, they immediately held their breath.

Fearing that the next sentence they heard would be.

Sorry.

Seeing that everyone finally quieted down.

That person breathed a sigh of relief.

"I just received news."

"Our soldiers have now rescued them."

"Fortunately, no one died, they are all on the plane now."

"There are still more than 7 hours, and they will be able to meet everyone!"

As soon as he said this.

There was a burst of cheers from the audience.

"Hey, ma'am, what's wrong with you?"

In the crowd, someone suddenly fell down.

"It's okay, I'm okay."

"It's just a pity for my baby, how much suffering he must have endured."

The old lady cried.

Everyone's mood gradually calmed down.

They sat on the seats one after another.

While patting their hearts, they calmed their moods.

"Fortunately, fortunately."

"Fortunately, we have our soldiers."

"Otherwise, my child would really be gone!"

In the waiting hall, such voices came one after another.

More than seven hours later.

Beside the airplane runway.

Zhang Wen gripped the tool in his hand tightly.

His palms were sweating.

He could now see the huge figure of the Transport 20 in the sky with his naked eye.

The rockets hanging on both sides of the plane were already empty.

Swaying constantly with the plane's airflow.

"Please don't let anything happen."

Zhang Wen prayed in his heart.

On the plane.

Guo Chen was incredibly nervous now.

Even when the plane's engine stopped during the last test flight, he wasn't this nervous.

He wasn't afraid of death himself, but when he thought of the 450 families in the waiting building.

He kept feeling nervous in his heart.

He was afraid.

"Don't be nervous."

Kong Qiming saw it and knew that Guo Chen was under too much psychological pressure now.

"I'm here to assist you."

"What are you afraid of?"

"I, your older brother, walked out of the hail of bullets of that ungrateful wretch in the south."

"With me by your side, what are you afraid of?"

After Guo Chen heard such a voice.

The pressure in his heart was indeed a little less.

Circling in the air.

At this time, the airport tower had completely cleared this half of the area.

Just for his landing.

"Lower the wheels."

Kong Qiming said the steps patiently on the side.

At this time, an alarm suddenly appeared in the cockpit.

Guo Chen hurriedly checked.

Only to see it clearly displayed on the monitor.

"Brake wheels not lowered!"

Scared, he hurriedly pulled up the joystick.

The plane started to climb.

"Tower, Tower!"

"My brake wheels won't lower!"

"Cannot determine the fault now!"

"Requesting tower assistance!"

"Requesting tower assistance!"

Hearing such a voice.

Everyone's heart was in their throat.

They had flown tens of thousands of kilometers.

The difficult rescue mission had been completed.

Could it be that they were going to be here.

Everyone didn't dare to think any further now.

After Zhang Wen learned the news, he hurriedly picked up the binoculars.

To check the status of the brake wheels.

"Not lowered!"

"Not lowered!"

After Guo Chen learned this, he immediately pulled up the plane.

And started circling over the airport.

At this time, on other planes entering the field, many passengers saw a plane they had never seen before circling beside them.

At that time, military fans recognized it.

This was a transport plane.

"What's going on?"

"How could a plane that hasn't been officially commissioned come to a civil airport?"

At this moment, inside the Transport 20 cabin.

Kong Qiming said.

"It seems the landing gear is stuck."

"Now, only one of us can go out and kick the landing gear down!"

"I'll go, you don't have the experience."

After Kong Qiming finished speaking, he looked at Guo Chen, who nodded stiffly.

He patted him on the shoulder.

"Don't worry! I'm someone who has won a first-class merit in the Air Force before."

"Could I still capsize in the gutter?"

"Hahaha!"

After walking out of the cockpit, the smile on Kong Qiming's face immediately faded.

He said that just to ease Guo Chen's mood.

He came to the inside of the cabin and called Zengxia.

Pulling him to the landing gear cabin section.

And instructed him: "Remember, you must hold onto me later."

"What's going on?" Zengxia asked.

"The landing gear won't come down, I'll try to see if I can kick it down!"

Kong Qiming rolled up his sleeves.

Opened the door, and a strong wind almost blew him away.

Zengxia saw this and hurriedly hugged him.

"That's it."

Then, he went in, looked at the landing gear, and kicked it hard a few times, but found that the landing gear didn't move at all.

Kong Qiming had no choice but to return dejectedly.

"Don't say anything yet, let's think of other ways."

After Zengxia agreed, Kong Qiming stumbled back to the cockpit.

"How is it?"

Guo Chen asked.

"Failed."

"However, there is still a very dangerous method now."

"Do you want to try it?" ===== CHAPTER 70 =====
