Changkong Fighter

Chapter 251 Mine System

At the dock, gantry cranes manufactured by Dongda University continuously unloaded containers from cargo ships. Soldiers from the drone battalion opened the containers and took out the pre-assembled drones, revealing their true appearance.

It features a coaxial counter-rotating rotor, a streamlined structure, and an electro-optical turret on the underside of the fuselage. On both sides are four-tube launchers carrying small missiles with built-in infrared seekers. Although it cannot attack over a wide area, it can precisely strike small groups of enemies.

The war on Guam has now subsided, and the remaining enemies are small groups of alien forces. These drones, capable of patrolling in the air, are well-suited for performing such tedious patrol missions.

After confirming that the missile's electrical connection was normal and that the UAV system was operating normally, the UAV's coaxial counter-rotating rotor slowly began to rotate. As the engine's output power increased, the landing gear slowly lifted off the ground, and then it connected with the system set up by the UAV battalion via a data link.

More than a dozen drones took off and began patrolling around the port, while the photoelectric towers below rotated, scanning the ground using multiple modes such as infrared, white light, and thermal imaging.

After the optical spot system scanned the IR identification strips on the personnel from the University of Tokyo and confirmed that they were friendly forces, the active phased array radar mounted on the aircraft then scanned for obstacle avoidance.

A buzzing sound, like that of a swarm of mosquitoes flying, came from the sky, causing some residents "trapped" on the island to look up.

Looking at the densely packed drones in the sky, an indescribable sense of fear arose in their hearts, and they couldn't help but scramble into their houses.

Soon after, several Dongfeng Mengshi trucks drove into a sparsely populated residential area of ​​Guam. The loudspeakers on the trucks began broadcasting messages to reassure the civilians and inform them that Guam would soon be under military control.

More than a hundred drones are constantly patrolling the island, their electro-optical spheres scanning the surrounding ground, consuming the high-quality fuel that the Americans couldn't take away and were practically given away, while also scanning Guam's terrain in greater detail to build a detailed 3D map in the rear.

After taking over these bases, the soldiers from the University of Tokyo showed expressions of disgust. They used to boast about how great the Americans were, but when they actually took over the Guam base, they found that the equipment inside the aircraft was seriously outdated, especially the Air Force's temperature-controlled hangars, where more than 40% of them had problems. This forced the University of Tokyo to call off the Air Force's relocation.

Fighter jets cannot withstand wind and sun, especially the salty sea breeze, which is extremely corrosive to the airframe skin. Unless it is for routine training, they have to stay in a "chicken coop".

A thorough inspection and assessment of all hangars is necessary, along with repairing damaged equipment, replacing aging wiring, and, incidentally, arranging for some local personnel to be stationed on Guam.

That's right. The native inhabitants of Guam couldn't bear the war on the front lines and moved away with their families. Most of the remaining civilians were also transformed into cyborgs. There are hardly any civilians left in the entire civilian area of ​​Guam. This actually means that Dongda doesn't have to worry about controlling Guam.

With people fleeing or dying, this place has become a "no man's land." Naturally, some people need to be transferred here to plan Guam and turn it into a military stronghold for the East in the Western Pacific. Moreover, it would allow our comrades to live in comfortable houses, and being well-rested is also a form of combat effectiveness.

However, before that, a thorough inspection of Guam, both inside and out, must be conducted to ensure that there are no threats on the island, given that the American soldiers moved too quickly and there were some suspicious circumstances.

Inside the command center, the old commander watched the handover procedures of the Americans. They were very decisive, and the whole process went more smoothly than Dongda University had anticipated. They had thought there would be some minor disagreements, but the Americans left very decisively.

People who are ignorant of reason will surely suffer misfortune; when things go abnormally, there must be something sinister going on; when words are not sincere, there must be something fishy going on; when something is extremely strange, there must be a deception!

This action by the US is inconsistent with its usual practices, so there may be problems on Guam, and it's not just a matter of dilapidated infrastructure.

"They didn't say anything?" the old commander asked solemnly.

"No."

The old commander put down the documents in his hand, leaned back, and crossed his hands on his lower abdomen. His mind raced, trying to figure out what the Americans wanted. Based on the current information, there must be something wrong on Guam. "How is the takeover progressing?"

"Sir, the military base is now under our control. Other areas await the arrival of additional personnel."

"Be very careful!"

"Understood! We are questioning some local civilians."

Inside the sergeant's base, several overseas Chinese who had been stranded in the area were invited inside the base.

Inside the office, a pot of hot tea was placed on the table, and the several overseas Chinese who had been invited looked somewhat uncomfortably at an officer with the rank of major.

"Um, thank you," a middle-aged man in his forties said as he accepted the tea.

"No need to thank me for this, comrade," the assistant said with a smile, placing the recorder on the table and then looking at the laptop in front of him, preparing to stenographically record the message.

"Comrades, don't be nervous. We asked you to come here to learn about the local situation," the major asked softly.

To prevent the Americans from accidentally leaving something in Guam and then stepping on a landmine, it's still necessary to understand the situation in detail.

"You don't know the local situation?"

Has anything unusual happened recently?

"Yes! Those Americans are really awful. They let those aliens roam the island without sending troops to wipe them out, forcing us to find our own way. In the end, we formed a militia and bought a batch of weapons from the garrison at a high price before starting to seek self-rescue."

Listening to the middle-aged man in front of me complain, he basically said that the Americans wouldn't let them leave Guam, nor would they send troops to "suppress the bandits," leaving the locals to solve the problem on their own.

"You mean, people are going missing every day?"

"Yes, people go missing every day. They either die in battle, or are bitten to death by those damned giant lice! Or they become something that is neither human nor ghost!"

Listening to the man's words, the major frowned slightly. Everything seemed normal, but upon closer analysis, there was something unusual about it.

On a blockaded island, the military remains silent, only managing the security of the area around the military base, leaving civilians to face alien civilizations, and even the emergence of newly mutated humans!

Considering the US's attitude during the "special three years" and before leaving, the major's brows gradually furrowed. Could the US have really left some landmines on Guam?
"Can you tell me where the most people have gone missing?"
