After listening to Platoon Leader Lu's complaints for a while, Lin Yi realized how tired the engineer platoon was at this stage. Physical fatigue was secondary, but mental tiredness was the real tiredness.
As the two of them were chatting, Lin Yi suddenly thought about the filling of sandbags in the second class, so he asked casually, "Platoon leader Lu, do you have any tools for filling sandbags? You can't just use a shovel to shovel it bit by bit."
Platoon leader Lu nodded, "There are tools. You are a logistics assistant. Don't you know? Our battalion has a rapid loader of flood-proof sandbags. It is placed right next to it."
This time it was Lin Yi's turn to be stunned, "I don't know."
Only then did Platoon Leader Lu remember, "Oh, I remembered. This equipment was sent by the assistant of the equipment section. I thought the equipment section was only responsible for weapons and equipment, but I didn't expect that they are also responsible for this kind of logistics equipment."
Generally speaking, this kind of "flood control sandbag rapid loader" is indeed a matter of logistics. It is probably because the superiors considered that the equipment department is better at mechanical maintenance and repair, so they handed it over to the equipment department.
However, in many cases, equipment stocks and logistics stocks are not separated. After all, all equipment is transported by logistics vehicles, and everything will be discussed.
This can be seen from the names of the people who work. People who work for the headquarters (staff department) are called staff officers, people who work for the political department are called officers, and people who work for the logistics department and equipment department are called officers.
Assistant.
Lin Yi was very curious about this machine. Now that the hidden dangers have been discovered, he requires more sandbags. If he could imitate a simple one, or use a few pieces of wood to make a simple sand-loading machine.
In this way, you can not only gain invention points, but also greatly reduce the physical energy consumption of the warriors. This is something that kills two birds with one stone. I will have to go and take a closer look at it later.
After surviving the cooling time of the Eagle Eye skill, Lin Yi activated the skill again. He was relieved when he saw that although the embankment in front of him was glowing with yellow light in some places, there was no red warning color.
Continuing to walk at a steady pace, Lin Yi judged from the several uses of the Eagle Eye skill that its effective range was about two kilometers.
Just make sure you take one hour to walk two kilometers.
For a standard warrior, the number of steps taken in one minute is about 120, and each step is 75 centimeters. This calculates to a standard speed of about five kilometers per hour.
Therefore, Lin Yi's speed reaches two kilometers per hour, which is not too slow.
Regarding Lin Yi who was trying to increase his speed in vain, Platoon Leader Lu was a little worried that Lin Yi would not be able to see carefully, so he quickly asked in a low voice: "Assistant Lin, why don't you slow down and watch, we'd better observe more carefully."
Lin Yi didn't want to waste time. It would get dark soon, and he couldn't guarantee whether his eagle eye skills would be compromised after dark. The most important thing was that he had to take care of the safety of the engineers in the platoon.
It's dark, and you could be in danger if you're not careful.
"Platoon Commander Lu, don't worry. I've definitely looked carefully at the places I walked by. We've been patrolling for two hours and have to stop. It's dark and we can't see clearly. It's easy to be in danger. The rest of us will be in danger."
The next journey will have to wait until tomorrow morning for inspection."
Platoon Commander Lu had no objection. According to the current speed, in just a few hours, everyone can patrol a distance of seven or eight kilometers. This speed is very scary, compared with the original patrol of four or five kilometers in one day.
In other words, the speed is increased by at least five times.
"Okay, I'll listen to Assistant Lin on everything."
Two hours later.
Lin Yi found that the condition of the river embankment was better than expected. At least in this section, no red spots were found. There were quite a few yellow spots, but they would not affect his wife.
Platoon leader Lu frowned. He didn't know if it was because he was too worried. He always felt that Lin Yi's inspection was a bit of a joke.
There was nothing to say about the first few kilometers. Whether it was carefully observing the soil quality or the flow speed of the river, he would test it out. But in the last two kilometers, Lin Yi simply took off in stride.
He really couldn't worry about the two kilometers.
When Lin Yi turned around and planned to call the engineer platoon back to the camp, Platoon Leader Lu shouted: "There are three squads, each with a distance of 700 meters. We are inspecting carefully."
Lin Yi immediately understood what Platoon Leader Lu meant, because after he used up his skills, he observed that there were no problems in the last two kilometers, so he naturally walked away in stride. He didn't have to wait for the cooling time, and he definitely didn't have to press his pace like in the previous kilometers.
Walk.
However, in the eyes of Platoon Leader Lu, this scene became a sign of irresponsibility. Lin Yi was helpless, "Okay, then you can go on patrol. I have checked anyway. There is nothing wrong with this section, so I will go back first."
Already."
Platoon leader Lu didn't want Lin Yi to think too much, so he quickly explained: "It's getting dark now, and I'm afraid I can't see clearly, so I have to be more careful. You have to understand."
Lin Yi had no ill intentions. He knew that Platoon Commander Lu was also acting responsibly, and of course he would not be angry. "Platoon Commander Lu, when you get up tomorrow morning, come and call me. After we patrol for a while, we will come back for dinner and try to have a full day tomorrow."
Check the embankment."
"By the way, when you come to call me, just take care of one class. Let the other two classes sleep for an extra hour. You work so hard and you deserve more rest."
Platoon Leader Lu nodded, "Okay, then I'll come find you tomorrow morning."
When rushing back, because it was already dark, the first company responsible for the repairs had gone back early, and the leader was nowhere to be seen. Lin Yi rushed back to the battalion headquarters, and instead of rushing to report to the headquarters, he went directly to the first company.
The deputy company commander of the first company was a little surprised to see Lin Yi coming. This could be regarded as Lin Yi's first visit. He thought Lin Yi had different opinions on the repair points, so he asked: "Assistant Lin, what do you have?"
Instructions? The company commander is at the headquarters, why don't you go directly to him."
The deputy company commander of the first company was an officer who was about to be promoted to captain. He had three years more military experience than Lin Yi. He was so polite that Lin Yi didn't dare to answer the conversation. "I'm just here to see the sand loader. I'm not looking for you."
Company Commander."
When the deputy company commander heard that Lin Yi was just here to see the sand loading machine, his tone suddenly became enthusiastic, "I thought there was something wrong with the repairs, but it scared me."
"Come, come with me, and I will take you to see the sand loading machine. Logically speaking, this machine itself is managed by your logistics, but you have never said you want it, so we have been using it."
While talking, the deputy company commander talked about today's embankment burst accident, "How about you, Assistant Lin, you are so brave? You don't even know that the battalion commander has been praising you all afternoon, which really makes us envious.
Already."
Lin Yi really couldn't stand the enthusiasm of the deputy company commander. When he saw the sand loading machine, he dismissed the deputy company commander and said, "Why don't you go and work first? I'll leave after I know how to load the sand machine."
