Chapter 477: Immortal Bay Outpost
Wang Buan's destination is the Shenxian Bay outpost.
This is one of the most distant outposts. It is also the westernmost outpost.
I regret being a soldier for two years, and I regret not being a soldier for a lifetime. This widely circulated phrase is perhaps the highest evaluation of the military profession.
We all know that being a soldier is hard, and regular training leads to back pain, getting up earlier than chickens and sleeping later than dogs. But there is one place where ordinary soldiers are more difficult, and that is the border.
The Shenxian Bay outpost is located in the middle of the Kunlun Mountains, is the outpost with the largest temperature difference between day and night in our country, perennial strong winds, low oxygen content in the air, and the temperature difference between day and night reaches more than 30 degrees.
In the early days of the outpost, these border guards only relied on a cotton tent, an iron pot on the stone, nibbled on compressed dry food, and drank "boiling water" boiling at 70 degrees, but they persevered.
It's not easy to get to the outpost.
If you rely on a vehicle, the speed is very slow.
If it's a helicopter, it's a lot faster. However, we are seriously short of helicopters.
In particular, helicopters, which are able to come and go freely in the plateau area, are seriously insufficient.
Well, now the T-Rex helicopter comes and goes as it pleases.
With more than two hundred tons of supplies, it can also travel on the plateau with ease.
Wang Buan looked outside through the porthole. The ground is all bare. There is no vegetation at all. Green is even less to count on.
Either white. The color of the snow.
Either it's brown. The color of the permafrost.
Almost the entire Tibetan Plateau is like this.
All around, there was silence. There is not even a shadow of an event.
There are no birds or animals.
There are no birds, beasts, insects, fish.
Here, the hardest thing is loneliness.
Loneliness is the worst enemy.
To overcome loneliness is to overcome oneself.
The white color gradually increases......
The helicopter also gradually began to climb.
You don't need to look to know that there is the famous Kunshan Mountain Range in front of you.
In mythological stories, Kunlun Mountain is beautiful, mysterious, and full of magic. What the Queen Mother of the West, Buzhou Mountain, is here.
However, in the eyes of the pilot, Kunlun Mountain is not a fun place.
It has a high altitude, low temperatures, and strong winds.
Especially the individual passes.
I don't think much about driving.
Helicopters passing over the pass are often hit by strong winds.
The most feared thing is the sudden strong wind from the side. Sometimes the helicopter will be pushed from side to side, and the fluctuation range will even exceed 100 meters.
If the engine is not powerful enough to make an effective evasive maneuver, it will crash.
Along the way, this is what Cheng Xiaoshan fears the most.
Therefore, when approaching the Kunlun Mountain Pass, he was still a little nervous.
Random others are also noticeably a little nervous.
After all, in the event of a crash, the consequences would be unimaginable.
In this place where there is no grass and snow, there is no time to rescue!
In particular, if the machine is broken, you don't know your exact location. No one else knows your exact location either. I can't find you even if I want to find you.
Here, the only thing that can judge the exact location is the coordinates, only various satellite navigation devices.
Otherwise, everywhere, the appearance is exactly the same.
Toponym?
Hehe.
Inexistent.
Here, there are no place names at all.
The entire Ali no man's land is a big place name. It covers an area of hundreds of thousands of square kilometers.
As long as Wang Buan is very calm.
He believed in the capabilities of the Tyrannosaurus Rex helicopter.
In other words, he believes in the technological level of Transformers.
If you can't even conquer the small Kunlun Mountain, then the Transformers are too inferior.
Sure enough, it passed easily.
What about strong winds?
What about storms?
No effect on Tyrannosaurus Rex helicopters.
It's like a car passing on an eight-lane highway, fast and steady, easy to cross.
The snow-capped Kunlun Mountain was gradually left behind.
The ground in front of us was almost all brown.
It's still predominantly brown, with occasional patches of white or two.
The brown ones are the mountains. There is no grass at all, only frozen soil. The white ones are the snow peaks.
The mountains here are all above 6,000 meters above sea level. The highest peak is often 7,000 meters, 8,000 meters or something. At every turn, it is the top 100 of the world's peaks, the top 50 or something.
"Dong Dong Kui (007) asked to leave the team. ”
"Approved. ”
"Dong Dong Gou (009) asked to leave the team. ”
"Approved. ”
"Dong Yusan (013) asked to leave the team. ”
"Approved. ”
Two hours later, the regiment began to disperse.
Basically, two helicopters in a group, each heading for a different post.
All the way along, there are very high altitude posts.
Spancourt Outpost......
Fort Kurnak Border Company......
Empty Kazan Pass outpost......
Heweitan Outpost......
Hot Springs Outpost......
Astronomical Point Outpost......
Sanctuary Bay Outpost......
Among them, the Heweitan outpost has the highest altitude of 5,410 meters, ranking first. The Sanctuary Bay outpost ranks second at an altitude of 5,380 meters.
In total, there are five outposts in the army at an altitude of more than 5,000 meters, all of which are located here.
One can imagine how difficult it is to replenish supplies.
Over a snow-capped mountain......
Crossed another snow-capped mountain......
and another snow-capped mountain......
Crossing a snow-capped mountain......
It's finally here!
A small circular building appeared in front.
Outside the small building, the five-star red flag fluttered high. The strong wind blew the five-star red flag almost straight out.
This is the Hideaway Bay outpost.
Here, the altitude is 5,380 meters, the average annual temperature is below zero, the maximum temperature difference between day and night is more than 30 degrees, the winter is more than 6 months, half of the windy days above 17 m/s in a year, the oxygen content in the air is less than 45% of the flat, and the ultraviolet intensity is 50% higher!!
"Chief Engineer Wang, we landed. ”
"Okay. ”
"Do you want to wear an oxygen mask?"
"Don't need it, do you?"
"That's fine. ”
The Tyrannosaurus Rex helicopter landed slowly.
The outpost had been notified in advance and had repeatedly cleared the surrounding clearing.
The officers and soldiers had long since discovered the arrival of a helicopter. and Cheng Xiaoshan are also in contact. They were all neatly gathered outside, waiting for the helicopter to land.
For them, it is not easy to see an "outsider" once.
When the behemoth landed, their eyes sparkled.
Such a big helicopter!
It's a giant in the sky!
It feels bigger than any helicopter I've seen before!
Land safely.
Hold still.
Wang Buyan jumped out of the helicopter.
Border guards flocked to watch the Tyrannosaurus Rex helicopter curiously.
It's huge.
It's so domineering.
It's mighty.
There are also a lot of materials carried by camels.
It feels like more than dozens of trucks combined.
The other two helicopters also landed slowly.
This time, a total of three helicopters were responsible for delivering supplies to the Sanctuary Bay outpost. The total weight is about 600 tons.
Wang Buan silently looked at the border guards.
They are all young.
Many people are younger than him and Wang Buan.
There are a lot of border guards, maybe nineteen or twenty years old.
However, due to the cold, lack of oxygen, and strong ultraviolet rays on the plateau, their faces were a little dark red and red, and they felt as if they had been burned.
Suddenly, a sentence came to mind:
There is no time to be quiet, but someone is carrying the weight for you.
While you're enjoying safety and calm, they're battling the cold, the lack of oxygen, the ultraviolet rays, and the blizzard.
When you are enjoying the "mourning" life, there is a group of people here who are using their blood and youth to guard the borders of the motherland, guard every inch of the country, and guard every countryman.
They didn't have great merit.
They didn't have a great feat.
They are not famous.
They don't have a lot of money.
They don't have mobile phones, they can't play Douyin, they can't play Kuaishou, they can't watch live broadcasts, they can't watch Internet celebrities, they can't shop online, they can't swipe stickers, they can't drink milk tea, they can't play games......
Yes, it is just silently giving, silently sticking to it, silently day after day, year after year.
In front of them, anyone is insignificant.
The company commander and instructor were optimistic people.
Their cheeks are also dark red, dark red. Endemic to the plateau.
"This is ......"
"Chief Engineer Wang Buan. This helicopter is what he developed and produced. ”
"Hello, Chief Engineer Wang. ”
"Hello. ”
"Chief Engineer Wang, are you okay?"
"It's okay!"
"Are you really okay?"
"It's fine. ”
"That's good. ”
Wang Bu'an looked around suspiciously.
What do the greetings of the company commander and instructor mean?
It was only later that I understood. Dare to be afraid that others will have severe altitude sickness.
Due to the high altitude, lack of oxygen, strong ultraviolet rays, and strong winds, people who come here will have a splitting headache, difficulty breathing, Venus in their eyes, and weak legs, and feel very uncomfortable.
Therefore, there is a hyperbaric oxygen chamber inside the outpost. Oxygen can be given when necessary.
However, Wang Buan did not feel any discomfort.
Seems to be similar to the plains?
Guess, either, is the effect of template gene injections.
Or, it is to enhance the efficacy of genetic drugs.
It may be that the latter is the majority.
Anyway, it's a person who has strengthened his genes.
Maybe strengthening your genes won't turn you into a Super Saiyan, and it won't turn you into a One-Punch Man. But some of the negative effects can definitely be eliminated.
For example, altitude sickness or something.
"It seems that Chief Engineer Wang is our own people. ”
"What do you mean?"
"The ones who can adapt to the harsh environment here are our own people. ”
"Thank you!"
That's pretty good. Indeed, it is his own people.
It's a small mountain, and it's a little uncomfortable when I first arrive.
However, the physical fitness of the pilots is already very strong. After a while, I gradually got used to it.
"Hurry up and move things!"
"It's getting dark. At night, the wind thief is big. ”
"Good. ”
A new month has begun. Cheekily ask for a little recommendation vote. Thank you.
