Deputy squad leader Zhu did not dare to be careless, "Platoon leader, the situation this year is indeed a bit strange. I have been at the post for five or six years and have never encountered a single protected animal, but today I am sending away two."
I don’t encounter emergency gatherings once in two years. I didn’t expect to encounter them now, at night. This kind of situation is weird and scary.”
Lin Yi nodded, "There are also strong winds of level 10 for four consecutive days. I don't know how many times you will encounter them. Anyway, this is my first time. Everyone, bring a marching tent and enough compressed biscuits for a week.
, bring an extra radio battery and try to be prepared for a long-term battle."
Deputy squad leader Zhu was a little surprised to see Lin Yi being so cautious, "Platoon leader, why don't we bring a tent? Is it possible that we still have to live outside?"
Lin Yi shook his head, "Try not to live outside. It's now -30 degrees below zero. If you stay outside for a night, you will probably freeze to death. Besides, in such a cold weather, you need to have security personnel standing outside to watch people.
It will freeze."
Deputy squad leader Zhu: "Then you still bring a marching tent?"
Lin Yi breathed out, "Be prepared. If the herd of wild yaks breaks through the barbed wire fence naturally, it's okay, but if someone maliciously drives them away, we have to be prepared for a protracted war. Even if we dig three feet into the ground, we will still have to fight."
Find people.
Taking a step back, the wild yaks may not leave our defense area immediately. We have to follow them. The barbed wire fence cannot be destroyed casually if they want. Although the wild yaks have no nationality, they can still stay in the country.
Stay at home."
Deputy squad leader Zhu nodded, "Okay, then I'll bring the medicine box with me, maybe it can be used. If the wild yaks go crazy, they will be more terrifying than the enemy."
After gathering all their equipment, everyone set off immediately to the area where the barbed wire fence was destroyed.
The eighth squad post is five kilometers away from the barbed wire fence area of the militia duty station. It seems not far away, but in fact it is not easy to walk. As mentioned before, although the militia duty station is not far from the guard post, it is a close place.
You can even hear what you say.
But it's really difficult to walk there.
Because most of our national borders are divided according to the mountain range at the highest point of the mountain, the place where the militia duty station is on duty is the second line of defense. Since it is the second line of defense, there is no need to build it at the highest point of the mountain.
But the outpost is not good. The outpost is the first line of defense. If it is to be built, it must be built on this mountain range. It is the national border that it protects.
Therefore, although the two places seem to be very close, the sentry post is actually more difficult than the duty station.
Even though there won't be much difference in the environment between the two, after all, the drop will mostly not exceed 500 meters, which is basically about 200 to 300 meters.
The wind that can be blown by the outpost can also be blown by the duty station, but the terrain is flat and it is not easy to accumulate snow. There are far fewer hidden pits near them than the outpost.
In fact, the current hidden pit is not as dangerous as usual, because there have been strong winds for four consecutive days, and the current snow surface is not much softer than the ice surface. When you step on it, there is only a footprint left, just like stepping on the desert.
It's the same as the sand inside, it won't fall off at all.
But even if you walk in the desert, you will still be in danger of encountering quicksand, let alone walking on snow. Lin Yi is exploring the road ahead. As a leader, he must be prepared to be a vanguard.
If the leader of the outpost does not have the courage to take the lead, then you will not be able to lead these soldiers.
Because it was dark at night, everyone tied safety ropes to each other to prevent the vanguard from accidentally falling into a deep pit, so that everyone could be rescued in time.
Lin Yi was walking when his foot suddenly hit the air and he fell down. Fortunately, Lin Yi had four points of fighting skills and four points of physical fitness.
With a strong sense of crisis, Lin Yi instantly grabbed a nearby stone and hung himself up.
Lin Yi tried to exert force on his legs, but he felt that his feet were empty, and cold sweat slowly broke out. This was actually a gap in the cliff, and the snow on it was hollow, and it would sink if he stepped on it.
The second-ranked soldier saw that Lin Yiren was gone, and immediately pulled the rope, shouting while pulling, and everyone tried their best.
Everyone's strength was immeasurable, because Lin Yi's skills were good, and coupled with the huge lifting force brought by the safety rope around his waist, Lin Yi pushed up with both hands and he flipped up.
The feeling of surviving this disaster made Lin Yi lie on the snow and not dare to move rashly.
Deputy squad leader Zhu immediately stepped forward to check, shining his flashlight on the ground, and said, "The distance between this cliff and the ground is about fifty meters. If someone falls, he will definitely die."
It turned out that someone at the Eighth Squadron Post lost his footing and fell off the cliff while moving snow. Lin Yi was still thinking at first, shouldn't he be careful when moving snow? But after experiencing it personally today, he realized what it is to be afraid.
.
At this time, deputy squad leader Zhu untied the safety rope around his waist and locked it on Lin Yi, "Platoon leader, let me be the leader. I have lived here for five or six years. I am still familiar with the surrounding environment.
I understand."
Lin Yi waved his hand, "You go back to the end of the line. I was careless just now and didn't expect to step on the gap in the cliff. Now that I have experience, I'll poke it with a pole before stepping on it. It will probably be fine."
On the other hand, you seem to know this area very well, but in fact, you can’t see anything under the heavy snow cover, and if you take it lightly, something will happen.”
Deputy squad leader Zhu wanted to say something else, but Lin Yi scolded him: "This is during wartime. Don't bargain with me and obey orders."
Deputy squad leader Zhu sighed, "Platoon leader, if something happens, you must shout and we will pull the rope immediately to ensure that you will not be put in danger."
With the help of the night stars and flashlights, the group continued to walk slowly and firmly down the mountain.
After walking for about an hour, Lin Yi raised his hand. Everyone was immediately on guard with guns. Lin Yi picked up the night vision goggles and looked at it. He saw more than thirty wild yaks gnawing on grass on the exposed mountain.
Because white snow reflects light, the stars are particularly bright on a cloudless night, so you can see them very clearly.
However, Lin Yi does not dare to approach now. The wild yaks seem to be in no danger, but judging from their behavior of crossing the barbed wire tonight, it shows that they are not so safe now. If they attack people, it depends on how close they are.
With these two legs, there is no hope of outrunning them.
"The correspondent reported to the headquarters that we have discovered the location of the wild yak herd and are now closely observing to see if there are any suspicious persons inside the yak herd."
The regiment headquarters immediately replied: "Received, please keep it up. The support personnel have already set off and will rush to your headquarters within an hour. Please pay attention to your own safety."
At this time, the intercom voice of the militia duty station also came over, "Comrade Class 8, we are the militiamen of the militia duty station. We found someone suspected of being your unit in the northeast. Please flash your light three times in the southwest to let us confirm.
