Chapter 1540: Chapter 878: Ambush? (3)
"It’s up, it’s up. Success!" The repair personnel behind Luo shouted excitedly. They were very happy, having fought through the night and finally seeing the results.
Third Uncle began testing, first by doing circles to check the steering, then ascending and descending...
He was carrying out a series of tests to see what problems this helicopter might have.
......
Li Yu walked out from indoors, watching the helicopter in the sky maneuvering and suddenly accelerating and decelerating. Li Yu felt quite good.
Meanwhile, Old Qin, who was operating the drone on the rooftop, also landed the drone, parking it on the rooftop.
Moreover, Zhang Rufen and others, whose freedom had been restricted, were once again shocked.
They couldn’t move, but they could see through the shattered glass that the helicopter outside had taken off and was performing various flying maneuvers.
"Really! It’s actually repaired. Who exactly are these people?" Liu Cunyi murmured with wide eyes.
No one answered him, this was also the question that Zhang Rufen had been pondering over the past two days.
Li Yu naturally wouldn’t tell them.
Third Uncle piloted the helicopter to a height of one thousand meters, then ascended again to a height of two thousand five hundred meters. Everything was running smoothly, with some noticeable shaking likely due to a minor stabilizer issue.
Soon, Third Uncle was preparing to land the helicopter.
But just as he descended to a height of one thousand meters, he suddenly saw a convoy appearing on a winding road in the distance.
A convoy?
Third Uncle hovered the helicopter in the air, then picked up the telescope to look over there. Although the distance was too far for a clear view, the cars’ direction was evidently heading towards the rescue base.
Without hesitation, Third Uncle directly landed the helicopter.
Buzz buzz buzz—
The airflow stirred up.
After the engine was shut down and the rotor slowed down, Li Yu finally walked over.
Just about to ask Third Uncle how the flight felt, Third Uncle sternly came down from the helicopter.
Said to Li Yu, "Someone’s coming! I just saw from the helicopter a convoy of ten cars. Couldn’t see clearly who was inside, but now they’re probably only ten kilometers away from us."
Li Yu frowned deeply. He had only speculated before but never expected that using the searchlight last night really drew them in.
So he said, "Third Uncle, what do you think is the best course of action?"
Third Uncle looked at the helicopter on the roof, then at the repaired one parked aside and bowed his head in contemplation.
Said, "It’s uncertain whether those people are the fraudsters. We don’t have cars now, only helicopters.
But the helicopter is too big a target, and it’s all forest here, not suitable for air-ground combat.
I think, if those people want to come to the rescue base, there’s a hillside on the road where we can ambush them on both sides.
Meanwhile, we could also confirm if this group is the fraudsters coming over from Southeast Asia."
Upon hearing Third Uncle’s suggestion, Li Yu calculated in his mind.
Third Uncle’s suggestion is indeed a more prudent approach.
So he found Luo and others, pausing the repair of the other helicopter, preparing to set up ambushes on both sides of the cement road leading up the mountain.
The cement road leading up the mountain is flanked by forests that are three to four meters higher than the middle cement road.
This cement road seems to have been directly excavated from the mountain, with a two to three-meter buffer on both sides to prevent falling rocks.
If it were the wartime era, this terrain would be perfect for ambushes, and in ancient times, it would also be excellent for ambush setups.
