However, although it was to leave immediately, in fact, this armored convoy also waited for the return of two straight 9 marines carrying country Z before leaving. During this waiting period, Liu Yan did not persuade Lin Hai to see his classmates again, but Lin Hai refused on the grounds that he could see him again after returning to China.

After the "Dresster" slowly left the dock and sailed out to the open sea under the escort of two armed Z-9 helicopters, Lin Hai ordered the entire army to evacuate. The next step is for them to find a way out of Mogadishu safely.

At Chen Xi's suggestion, the troops walked along the seashore and on the edge of the city, without going straight into the center of the city. And what they didn't expect was that probably because of the chill of the locals from the previous night battle, they drove away from the city of Mogadishu with thirty armored vehicles and six tanks, and no buddies jumped out of the roadside, shouting "Demacia!" Or "Allah Ahukba!" "Then paint the APC armored delivery vehicle shell with a large number of RPGs.

Looking out the window at the bare wilderness of Somalia, Liu Yan asked Lin Hai: "Now that we have left safely, what are our plans next?" We still have two days to spare. ”

& Turn on map projection. Lin Hai didn't answer Liu Yan directly, but just said to himself. The soldier next to him immediately turned on the holographic projection device in the car.

&Yan, you have good grades, here in Africa, which mountain range is closest to our current position? After a few casual dials on the holographic map, Lin Hai suddenly asked.

......Liu Yan thought for a while, stretched out his hand and looked at the map again, and then replied: "The only one that meets your requirements is the Kilimanjaro Mountains." ”

& Limanjaro? In what location? Lin Hai focused his eyes on the map and searched carefully.

& On the border between Tanzania and Kenya, that's it. Liu Yan drew a few strokes on the map, found the coordinates, and showed it to Lin Hai, "Mount Kilimanjaro is located in the northeast of Tanzania and about 160 kilometers south of the Great Rift Valley, it is the highest mountain range in Africa and a volcanic mound. The main body of the mountain stretches for nearly 80 kilometers from east to west and is mainly composed of three extinct volcanoes, Kibo, Mavinsi and Hira, covering an area of 756 square kilometers, and its central volcanic cone, Uhuru, is the highest point in Africa at 5,892 meters above sea level. Kilimanjaro is known as the 'Roof of Africa' and many geographers call it the 'King of Africa'. The main body of the mountain slopes to the plain below, which is about 900 meters above sea level, and the summit is covered with snow and ice all year round, but the glacial melt is very serious. The mountain is surrounded by mountain forests and is home to numerous mammals, some of which are endangered. ”

& 756 square kilometers? It still looks huge. Lin Hai rubbed his chin and looked at the hologram of Mount Kilimanjaro intently.

>> What is this mountain for, you ask? Liu Yan asked.

&Say, how about we hide the base in this mountain in the future? Lin Hai didn't answer Liu Yan immediately, but after thinking for a while, he suddenly asked Chen Xi, who was resting against the carriage.

Hearing this, Chen Xi opened his eyes and looked at the map first, and then said: "But yes, after all, in another time and space, the Global Defense Force has also set up an important military base on Mount Kilimanjaro. But in this plane, I guess it's still an important tourist attraction, right? ”

Liu Yan took over and said: "It is not only a tourist attraction, but also an important water supply area in Tanzania. ”

If we really want to choose this place as a base, then we have to choose the place carefully. Chen Xi nodded, sat upright, and searched carefully on the map.

& Hai, how did you choose Kilimanjaro as a base? Liu Yan saw that he couldn't help for the time being, so he went to interrogate Lin Hai, who couldn't help either.

>> I think this place is secluded enough. The location is also good, from here, it is convenient for us to send troops to various countries. ”

>> That is true, but don't you think this place is not a secret? Tourists, locals, Tanzanian troops, these are all likely to discover the existence of the base? ”

& No, I didn't say that the base should be built in broad daylight! ”

&What are you going to do? ”

Lin Hai asked Chen Xi directly: "Master Chief, you see, with what we currently have, can we dig a super large cave in this mountain range, or dig an underground cave underground, and our base can be established in Zhongzhong?" ”

Chen Xi thought for a while and said, "But yes, we can use the Rege multi-purpose armored vehicle to carry out this kind of engineering." However, it will take too much time, and you will not be able to return to your home country in time to report on the start of school. ”

&......" Lin Hai was stunned for a moment.

& We now have five Regs multipurpose armor, how much space can this armored car dig up in a day? Liu Yan hurriedly answered and asked.

& Grid was not originally used to make holes, it was generally only used to dig trenches and other simple fortifications, and if you want to open an underground base, the defense army is generally carried out by professional engineers, who have special machinery, and can complete one-fifth of the excavation progress in one day. But we don't have those professional mechanical tools at the moment, so we can only use Reg to dig, and Reg's efficiency is only one-tenth of the ability of professional tools, you can calculate it yourself. ”

> It's 50 days. "You don't need to count at all, Liu Yan knows the time it takes.

&Are there any natural caves in the Kilimanjaro Mountains? Lin Hai suddenly thought of something and hurriedly asked.

&Yes. This information can be found on the Internet. Liu Yan shook his head and said regretfully.

& There's really one. However, Chen Xi said a different answer from Liu Yan.

&Is it possible? Liu Yan was surprised, "The Kilimanjaro Mountains have been developed for nearly a hundred years, and geologists from all over the world often go to the mountains to conduct geological research, so it can be said that the Kilimanjaro Mountains have no secrets!" But no one has ever said that there are naturally formed caves in the Kilimanjaro Mountains. ”

The Kilimanjaro Strategic Base of the Global Defense Force of a Time and Space is built in a natural cave. "I remember that insight was in 2113, when the defense forces were fighting with the rebels in this area, because the fire of both sides was too fierce, and a large hole was punched in the mountain wall, people found this natural cave, and then the defense army established a military base in the cave, and used it as the strategic core, successfully defeating the rebel forces in East Africa." ”

& Where is the cave located? Lin Hai immediately sat up straight and looked at the map.

&If I'm not mistaken, it's probably in this area," Chen Xi searched on the holographic map for a long time, and finally found an area in the entire Kilimanjaro Mountains, "It should be on the mountainside northwest of Kilimanjaro." ”

&> Let's go here and take a look, I think the engineering ability of five Regs should be able to dig a cave in a short time, right? ”

> Three days, depending on the thickness of the mountain wall. I've only been to the Kilimanjaro base once before, and I did it at night, and I left after the mission, and I didn't visit the base. ”

& Keep the convoy moving at full speed! We've got to go through Kenya! ”

After a week of sleepless and hurried travel, Lin Hai and his team arrived at the foot of the Kilimanjaro Mountains.

Looking at the highest mountain in Africa at an altitude of nearly 6,000 meters, the two young people who have only seen Kilimanjaro on the Internet and in books feel really small.

The clone soldiers, led by Chen Xi, didn't care about this, and when the two young people were still marveling at the height of Mount Kilimanjaro, they had already completed the whole team.

Finally, seeing that the two young men were still looking at this huge mountain range, Chen Xi had to walk over and wake them up: "Sir, put away all the vehicles, the next road is all mountain roads, we have to walk with our feet." Only when you reach the mountainside can you use a gentle slope to use vehicles. ”

& You can go up by helicopter, right? Lin Hai asked, "As long as you remember the approximate location, we will land directly at that location and investigate." ”

Chen Xi thought for a while and replied: "It's okay to use a helicopter, and other people can just take the mountain road to keep up, but it's daytime, if you use a helicopter, will it be too conspicuous?" ”

Lin Hai also explained: "There is no one here now, and we have also reconnoitred before, and there is no radar in this large area. I think it should be. This saves us a lot of time. ”

& Well, transfer two helicopters, one for cave surveys, the other for cover and reconnaissance. ”

Probably because Chen Xi's memory was still very good, they found the cave through the reconnaissance equipment of the Rege multi-purpose armored vehicle before nightfall.

Then Lin Hai sent all five Reg multi-purpose armored vehicles out for excavation tasks. The wall was so thick that they dug it from dusk until the sun came out the next day, and then they dug out the cave.

As soon as he saw that the cave was dug out, Lin Hai rushed in first with Liu Yan. Seeing them enter, the soldiers followed them in hula.

As soon as they entered the cave, they turned on the flashlights on their armored suits and shone them around.

&Nice place! Liu Yan said, "After coming in, there is no problem with breathing, which means that there are natural vents here." Moreover, the detector also shows that the content of water molecules in this cave is relatively high, indicating that there is still a water source in this cave. Basically, as long as it's not discovered by outsiders, this is indeed the best base hiding spot. ”

"And it's huge," Lin Hai said, "I think I can deploy all the base facilities here." ”

>> Get all the vehicles out. At this time, Chen Xi also followed, and the entrance to the cave had been made by the Rege multi-purpose armored vehicle, and two tanks of the level of the Annihilator could be driven into two side by side.

Chen Xi continued: "Get all the vehicles out so that we can borrow the headlights and on-board radar of the vehicles to survey the cave. After all, we don't have professional tools, so we can only use crowd tactics to investigate here. ”
