Lin Yi then activated his eagle eye skills and quickly looked at the glass joints at the second floor post. Sure enough, he could see slow air flow, especially at the window openings and the plastic insulation strips where air leaked all the time.
Because he looked carefully and the eagle eye skill was timely, he only looked at it once. After finding the air leakage everywhere, Lin Yi took out a marker and circled it.
The sentry was a little surprised when he saw Lin Yi making circles on the glass. Could it be that Platoon Leader Lin could see where the air was leaking just by looking at it?
The sentry couldn't believe it. He took off his gloves and quietly felt the wind speed in the circle. It was indeed a bit cold.
Lin Yi looked at the frostbite on the sentry's hand, took out a bottle of Yunnan Baiyao from his waist and handed it over, "Come on, apply a little, it will be effective."
Yunnan Baiyao is very popular in the army, and it is very effective in treating bruises. Don’t think that Yunnan Baiyao is symptomatic? Even if it is an over-the-counter medicine, you must use Yunxiangjing or other chilblain ointments.
Either go professional or use prescription drugs like nifedipine or nicotinamide.
In fact, Lin Yi also felt at the beginning that it would be better to use chilblain cream to treat chilblains. After all, you can tell the symptoms just by looking at the name.
But no, civilian medicines are not suitable for the symptoms. It’s not that chilblain ointment is ineffective, but that in an environment like border defense, chilblains on soldiers’ bodies will freeze to the point of bleeding.
Chilblain ointment is only suitable for non-wound frostbite, and it will not work for wounds.
There is almost a rule in the army that it is absolutely right to use Yunnan Baiyao when there is blood.
This reminded Lin Yi of a joke in the army.
'Monitor, my hand was cut.'
'Use Yunnan Baiyao.'
'Monitor, I injured my knee.'
'Use Yunnan Baiyao.'
'Squad leader, I was hit by a bullet.'
'Use Yunnan Baiyao.'
Of course, this is just a joke and cannot be taken seriously.
But from the joke, it can indeed be explained how popular the drug Yunnan Baiyao is in the army.
This is definitely not Lin Yi’s intention to advertise or anything, it’s just because Yunnan Baiyao is so applicable.
Especially in the army, there is a medicine box in every class. When you open it, the first thing you see must be a Yunnan Baiyao band-aid.
The sentry didn't answer, "Platoon leader, I've wiped it. Look, some of my wounds are scabbed. You can't use this thing too often. I'll use it tomorrow."
Lin Yi felt a little uncomfortable when he heard this, took back the medicine and put it in his pocket.
The weather here is so bad. If you watch the video of the skin peeling off the face of a border guard, don’t think it’s because you haven’t used enough skin care products.
In such a cold and high ultraviolet environment, even taking medicine can't cure the peeling skin on the face, let alone skin care products.
Lin Yi went down to the first floor, found glue from the single room, took it back to the second floor, and then applied it to the air leakage area in the circle. As for the window opening and closing strips, glue was not enough, so he had to go back and find some plastic paper to put it on.
OK.
Although Lin Yi knew that it was of little use, in such a cold and windy place, the plastic would become brittle and then damaged by the wind.
Otherwise, the glass strips made of sufficient material will not be damaged.
But if you have some effect, let’s count it as some effect. You can’t just do nothing.
At this time, there was the sound of people going up the stairs. Lin Yi looked and found that it was the 8th squad leader coming up.
It was now past three o'clock in the morning, and Lin Yi asked curiously: "Why don't you sleep?"
Monitor 8 shrugged, "I'm a light sleeper. I couldn't sleep when I heard the sound of your busy work and the sound of the generator. I saw that you weren't sleeping in the single room, so I knew you must have gone to the second floor."
Lin Yi sighed with emotion, "I really didn't expect that the leader of the post was so difficult to do. He gave me a blow on the first day I took office. I couldn't sleep. Now the sound of the generator was noisy, which made it even more difficult to sleep.
"
"By the way, have the soldiers in the dormitory been awakened?"
Squad Leader 8 waved his hand, "Don't worry, they have been out patrolling for a whole day, and those on duty at the station have also been tired from shoveling snow. The sound of the generator will not affect them."
"There was a problem with the transformer last time. There was a snowstorm for two days, and the electricity came only two days later. During this period, we have been using generators. Everyone should eat and sleep as usual. If you don't believe it, wait until tomorrow, soldier.
We guarantee that everyone will be in good spirits."
"It's just a little troublesome to eat tomorrow morning."
Lin Yi asked curiously: "What's wrong with eating? I see there are still a lot of vegetables in the fresh-keeping cabinet."
The conditions of the current outpost are much better than before. The fresh-keeping cabinets are all double-door type, with at least 1,000 liters. Just like an ordinary store, there will be a freezer for soda drinks as soon as you enter the door. There are almost two large refrigerators.
.
After all, it is necessary to ensure the amount of fresh vegetables for more than ten people for a week, and the amount of vegetables distributed above is based on the standard of four dishes and one soup.
Although only two dishes are prepared for each meal, the distribution standards will not change, and the excess dishes will be stored for half a month or even longer.
Of course, this mainly depends on the type of vegetables. Vegetables like tofu must be eaten within three days after they are delivered, as they will change their flavor if kept for a long time.
After all, the fresh-keeping cabinet is not a time standstill. It can only appropriately extend the shelf life of vegetables, but it does not mean that they will not go bad just by putting them in.
As for meat, it is usually frozen in the refrigerator next to the fresh-keeping cabinet. If there is a lot of meat, it will not be a problem to store it for a whole winter.
People in the north should have experienced it, especially in high latitude areas such as Northeast China, Inner Mongolia, and Xinjiang. In places where agricultural production cannot be carried out in winter, it is very common to store meat for the whole winter.
However, the meat at the outpost has never been able to be stored. Master Wu is very particular about the amount of meat. He has to ensure that everyone can eat meat at every meal and ensure that there is enough food for seven days. This is actually not easy.
Of course, don’t think that there is not much meat. On the contrary, there is quite a lot of meat, at least the yak meat slices, such a large piece, can make everyone enjoy it.
But the officers and soldiers at the outpost are all young and strong men. It is unrealistic to eat meat freely. Who can afford to feed them?
Therefore, the meat is always just right. Basically, I only buy enough for a week and finish it within a week, so there will be no leftovers.
Today's supplies have just been delivered. There is meat and vegetables at the outpost. Why will it be difficult to eat tomorrow morning?
8 The squad leader pointed to the light bulb and said, "It's out of power."
Our generator is not very powerful and cannot drive a wok. It can only drive an electric pressure cooker for steaming rice.
Lin Yi felt relieved when he heard this, "It's okay to just eat rice. I see there are cucumbers, onions and other vegetables at the outpost. Just eat the whole salad."
When squad leader 8 heard that Lin Yi was not being particular, his heart suddenly dropped, "It's fine as long as platoon leader Lin can adapt to it. This is how we eat when there is a power outage. Anyway, the rice can handle it. I'm going to teach you a trick, scoop a bowl of rice and put it on the table."
Add some soy sauce and chili oil to make it more delicious. I can eat two big bowls at a time."
