"In this kind of weather, people have been out of contact for almost ten hours, can they survive it?" At this time, Zhang Jun asked with an ugly face.
Hearing Zhang Jun's words, everyone's expressions darkened. Indeed, in the severe cold weather in the Northeast, people have been out of touch for almost ten hours, is there any chance of survival?
You know, this is extremely cold weather with dozens of degrees below zero, coupled with a snowstorm. Moreover, these testers have little experience in wild survival, so it is unknown whether they can survive this night.
What's more, the dangers are not only cold and snowstorms. The area where the test site is located is in the deep mountains and old forests, where Siberian tigers, Siberian leopards, brown bears, black bears, wild boars and other beasts are active all year round.
Especially since these are the top predators in nature, if they are encountered in the wild, it will be really unlucky. Although the wild boars here are not the top predators, they are very dangerous in the forests of Northeast China.
It is definitely as famous as the Siberian tiger.
There is a saying in the Northeast, called one pig, two bears, three tigers, which shows how dangerous wild boars are. Especially wild boars are not independent individuals, but move in groups. Being besieged by a group of wild boars is nothing like encountering the Northeast.
Tiger difference.
Of course, if you accidentally encounter a lone wild boar, it may be even more dangerous. Because such wild boars are usually male wild boars that have been driven out by the wild boar group and have failed to seize power. In addition, they are in the Q period, and their combat effectiveness cannot be underestimated.
Therefore, Zhang Jun's words made everyone at the scene fall silent. No one dared to speak. They all knew what it meant to lose contact in the forest and snow fields in the Northeast.
Seeing everyone's depressed expressions, Wu Hao couldn't help but waved his hands and said: "Ignore these for now, do everything possible to find the person for me."
After speaking, Wu Hao turned to Zhang Xiaolei and asked: "How did these nine people get out? Is there a guide?"
Hearing Wu Hao's inquiry, Zhang Xiaolei shook her head: "These nine people are a test team composed of technical researchers and testers from our special mechanical exoskeleton-assisted protective armor project research and development team, seven men and two women.
The oldest is Dong Changhe, the project leader, who is 43 years old this year. The youngest is an assistant engineer who has just worked for half a year. Zhao Qianqian, who graduated from graduate school in July this year, is 24 years old.
According to reports from the test site, when they went out this morning, they brought two of the latest models of special mechanical exoskeletons to assist with protective armor, as well as two off-road pickup trucks.
Because there were many test items today, they decided not to come back for lunch. When they set out in the morning, they carried some burning tools and some self-heating hotpots and other food, as well as a wind shelter tent.
So if they can make full use of these resources, they should be able to survive the night smoothly."
After hearing Zhang Xiaolei's report, Wu Hao and Zhang Jun's expressions softened a bit. It seemed that these people were not unprepared, but rather prepared.
"Do you carry a lot of self-heating food?" Zhang Jun asked immediately.
Hearing Zhang Jun's inquiry, Zhang Xiaolei shook her head and said: "We have prepared a lot of these self-heating foods for them to facilitate these test teams to fill their stomachs in the wild or during non-meal time.
You also know that these scientific researchers forget to eat once they get busy. At the company and base, the restaurants are open 24 hours a day, so you can have hot meals at any time.
But the environment is different in the wild, so every time they go out we will prepare a lot for them for their own consumption. Usually when they go out to work in the field, they will bring some, but I don’t know how much they brought today, because
This thing doesn't count.
So we hope they carry more when they go out, or have some in the car."
Cheng Jun on the side said: "Food is actually not the most important thing. The most important thing is that they carry burning tools, which makes it possible to survive in the wild.
These burning appliances were prepared for them to drink hot water and keep out the cold in the wild, so they prepared a lot of gas tanks. What I am worried about now is that they don’t carry many gas tanks and may not be able to last too long.
But if any of them have survival experience, they can use the diesel and gasoline in these two pickup trucks, which are also good heating fuels. The key is, do any of them understand this?"
"It should be no problem. Two of the nine mecha testers are veterans and should have some experience in survival in the wild." Zhang Xiaolei added.
Hearing what Zhang Xiaolei said, everyone's suspense was relieved a little. It seems that these nine people are not all newbies who don't understand wild survival experience. At least these two veterans have more or less some experience.
Experience. No wonder they dared to go deep into the forest without thinking. It turned out that they were somewhat prepared.
"The most critical thing is this blizzard, which seriously hindered our search and rescue process." Zhang Xiaolei continued: "The loss of contact of the nine people this time has a lot to do with the blizzard. They wanted to collect data before the blizzard.
I was afraid that the blizzard would affect the progress of subsequent tests. I didn’t expect that the blizzard would come so violently that the nine people lost their way in the forest area.”
"They didn't carry any communication equipment. In addition, I remember that these two mechas also have communication systems and satellite positioning systems. Why doesn't it work?" Wu Hao couldn't help but frowned and asked.
Hearing Wu Hao's question, Zhang Xiaolei and the others couldn't help but feel embarrassed.
After a long time, Zhang Xiaolei finally said: "This is what we are most confused about. They carry satellite phones and the cars are also equipped with radios. These two mechas also have related communication systems and positioning systems. Why?
Everything has failed.”
"All failed?"
Wu Hao was stunned for a moment and couldn't help but said in surprise.
Zhang Xiaolei nodded: "Yes, logically speaking, we can retrieve the relevant data of these two mechas through the background and accurately locate them. However, after six o'clock in the afternoon, we will
The mecha has lost contact.
The most likely possibility now is that the testers consumed all the power during the daytime test, so we can't monitor them.
Previously, the test site organized search and rescue personnel to search and rescue the relevant areas based on the GPS coordinates of the last activities of the two mechas, but no human figures were found. The search and rescue personnel also tried to use the radio to make a call, but still received a reply.
There were traces of activity at the scene, but most of the traces including ruts had been covered up by the snowstorm. In addition, the visibility was poor in the snowstorm and it was getting late, so search and rescue was very difficult.
In addition, the number of personnel participating in search and rescue at the test site is limited, and for safety reasons, the search and rescue scale is not too large, and we plan to wait for the local professional search and rescue forces to arrive."
