Chapter 17 Over the Mountains and Mountains
Everyone packed their bags, picked up the fan and oil drums, and the buckets marched towards the primeval forest.
Along the way, everyone did not have time to enjoy the scenery, but just walked forward with a dull head, and on the way to cross countless obstacles, the person with less weight in front of him took turns to clear the obstacles for everyone with a machete in his hand.
Everyone walked in the forest one foot at a time, and the fallen leaves and moss on the ground were layer after layer, and they grew extremely wild without human intervention. One foot can be almost half a foot in, walking is extremely laborious, and from time to time there will be a hole and a stone on the road under your feet to mix your heels.
Fortunately, everyone was carrying heavy weights, and the chassis was very stable when walking, but there were no accidents. When it was about noon, everyone found an open area and stopped, put down their backpacks and utensils, and unfastened their shoes. Release your legs and feet to relieve the pressure on your body, otherwise after a long time, blisters will easily grow on your feet, which will affect the speed of marching.
Liu Qing untied his backpack and took out the food and water to share it with everyone.
The demand for nutrition in this meal is relatively high, and everyone basically eats self-heating rice. After all, there is still a long way to go, and if you can't keep up with it for a while, it will be dangerous in the primeval forest.
So it is necessary to ensure everyone's energy and physical strength, Liu Qing took out a bag of mustard, and silently ate it with self-heating rice, and the sauced beef in the set meal was held and put away by him alone, and it was not yet time to eat it. He intends to replenish at any time on the march.
After resting for about half an hour, everyone regrouped and walked forward. Liu Qing remembered that two comrades-in-arms were found missing on the second day, Gao Hongtao and Zheng Yang, and the two were separated on the morning of the second day, and they were not found when everyone gathered to rest, which means that there should be no danger on the first day, but on the second day, you need to pay more attention to the situation of the surrounding comrades.
One afternoon, they crossed three more peaks and came to a halfway up the mountainside, Liu Qing looked at his phone, it was already 11 o'clock in the evening. In the afternoon, everyone walked here without a breath at all.
The people decided to set up camp here, but the slope of the hill was not too high, and there was a flat open field halfway up the mountain. The mountains in the primeval forest are very strange, strangely shaped, there are all kinds of things, some slopes can even reach 70 degrees or 80 degrees, and some slopes seem to have been reclaimed by man, and a large open space suddenly appears in the middle.
Remove the tent, eiderdown duvet, and moisture-proof mat from the rucksack. The bulging rucksack shrank all of a sudden, and because everyone hadn't eaten dinner yet, they didn't rush to rest, and the various classes got together and started distributing food again.
Because you can't light a fire in the forest, you can only eat some simple food as much as possible.
Break open the bag of instant noodles, do not break the whole plastic bag, and then pour mineral water into the cold water to make noodles.
Even if it is cold water instant noodles, everyone eats it very fragrant, there is no way, hungry! People are really hungry before they know how good it feels to have food to eat.
Because it was cold water instant noodles, everyone's sauce packets couldn't be eaten at all, and some people just threw the sauce packets on the ground.
After everyone finished eating, Liu Qing replied, and the meeting place silently collected the sauce packets thrown by everyone and put them in their pockets.
The garbage left over from meals will be collected, put in a backpack, etc., and destroyed at the fire site.
Drilling into the forest, Liu Qing took out his big mobile phone and took pictures of himself in the forest during the day
I took a look at the photos and deleted a few photos that were not very good angles.
looked at the mobile phone, there were still two signals, Liu Qing boarded QQ, and sent these photos to his own space.
There were a lot of messages on QQ, but Liu Qing did not reply one by one. I just turned off my phone after sending the photos, went back to the tent and took out the MP4. Pulling Yang Dachao in a tent, the two of them went out to solve the physiological problem, Yang Dachao looked up at the sky and said to Liu Qing: "Cattle, do you know? ”
Liu Qing also looked up at the brilliant starry sky in the sky and responded: "Yes, you can still see a few stars in our Tianjin, basically at night, when the lights are turned on, the sky is gray and cute, and you can't see anything." Just when there were not so many factories in my rural area, I could see the stars in the sky twinkling and twinkling. Now it's all factories, and it's so polluted that you can't see any stars at night. ”
Yang Dachao looked at the night sky and sighed: "If only my family could see such beautiful stars." Let's go, go back to sleep. ”
The two returned to their tents and did not speak for the night.
At about five or six o'clock in the morning of the second day, everyone woke up and walked out of the tent, you have to sigh at the strength of the biological clock, basically if people get used to a work and rest time, even if there is no one to supervise your life, your body will perform according to the previous life habits.
The cooking class had already carved out a vacant lot early and made a hot breakfast for everyone. Of course, rice porridge and bacon are cooked together, but it would be nice to have hot rice under these conditions, so what conditions do you have to ask for?
Ge Lingguang, the leader of the cooking class, beckoned everyone to come over to solve the physiological problem, and one person soaked urine to extinguish the fire.
In the end, even the small stove pit that was dug temporarily had a pool of water, oh no, it was urine, after all, there were more than 100 people.
By 8 o'clock, everyone had finished eating, and the tents and backpacks were all packed.
According to the GPS display, there is still a day to go at most, and everyone will reach their destination.
When everyone gathered, Liu Qing deliberately shouted: "What about Gao Hongtao and Zheng Yang, why didn't you see them?"
Sure enough, the two of them were not found, and everyone searched for a long time before they found them pooping in a forest. The squad leader of their squad scolded the two of them, everyone gathered, but they were still there to solve physiological problems, if they really lost it, then no one would be able to eat and walk around, and the squad leader was also afraid.
After verifying the number of people, everyone began to march again, and along the way over the mountains and mountains, Liu Qing even caught a fish in a stream and asked Ge Lingguang, the leader of the cooking squad, to disembowel and salt.
It's magic that there are fish in the rivers in the mountains.
Of course, there were even more magical things that they walked to a ravine and stopped to rest. There is a small river in the ravine, and it is already June. The weather in Inner Mongolia has soared to almost 30 degrees, and there is still a lot of thick ice frozen in this small river, and no one can tell how thick it is, but from the naked eye, there should be more than half a meter of ice, because some of the trees growing on the riverside are all drilled up from the ice.
Just looking at the thickness of those trees in the ice, it must be half a meter, Liu Qing and the others took off the weight on their bodies and ran to the ice like joy.
Of course, no matter how good and unique the scenery is, the leader will not give you a longer rest. It was still half an hour, and after half an hour, everyone packed their bags again and began to walk forward.
Fortunately, the river is frozen, so you don't have to go into the water, just walk over it.
By the afternoon, the sky had begun to get a little dark, and everyone knew that it was a sign that it was very close to the fire.
When it was evening, everyone could not rest and hurried to march. I hope I can get to the fire site sooner.
The communicator tried to contact his superiors via radio to confirm the mission, but was not given any clear instructions, only told that everything was going according to plan.
Seeing that the train was getting closer and closer, the smoke was already floating, and everyone's nerves were already tense.
After putting on goggles and masks, and coming to the vicinity of the fire despite the smoke, I found that someone had already begun to dig the barrier here.
After a short communication, everyone finally learned that the train on the way they came, because of the direction of the wind, the fire turned from the south to the east.
The rescue work has become more and more difficult because of the participation of the wind.
When the captain and instructor reported to the leaders that they had arrived at the fire scene, they finally received a new task, they no longer had to dig the isolation zone, their new task was to go to the front line to support the firefighting troops.
Liu Qing and the others only took a short rest, ate a little and hurried on the road.
And Liu Qing clearly remembers that they walked across 11 mountains, and the guy who gave the task order to draw was definitely a brain-dead, he only drew a straight line distance with this stroke, and did not think about how many mountains to climb along the way, basically after these mountains were turned over, the distance he drew should be at least 3~5 times.
When it was more than 3 o'clock in the middle of the night, the communicator couldn't hold it anymore, and he was carrying a huge battery on his back and holding a heavy communication equipment in his hand.
As the saying goes, there is no light load on the long road. This journey lasted from morning to midnight at more than 3 o'clock in the evening, and everyone didn't have much rest at all, both physically and mentally couldn't hold on.
In desperation, the leader had to cheer everyone up and said: "Brothers, hold on, we really can't stop here, and there may be burning around you at any time to take a look at the surrounding trees." After speaking, I saw him tear off a branch and break it with a slight pout.
The captain took the broken branch and said to everyone: "The surrounding trees have been roasted to death by heat radiation, and the water has basically been evaporated and dried up, as long as there are some random sparks, they can be lit, and the brother troops behind are still opening up, fire prevention, unless we drill behind them, it is impossible for us to rest here in peace." ”
When everyone heard this, this was indeed the case, and they had no choice but to rest on the spot for a while, eat something and continue to move forward.
On the second day, the sun shone down in the morning, and although it was obscured by gray smoke, this glimmer of light also brought some uplifting spirits to everyone, as if the sun was shining on the body, and even the fatigue was relieved.
The captain and instructor just frowned and didn't say anything when they looked at the route on the GPS, but Liu Qing knew that they must have started scolding their mother in their hearts now.
