Chapter 0341 Airdrop Materials
The two men dug all day, and there was nothing but a large pit one meter and a half deep. However, it was not all for nothing, and the frequency of fluttering of the compass needle was noticeably higher in the excavated pit than in the ground. This shows that the right place to dig is made, and the further down you dig, the closer you get to your destination.
As the sun sets, the golden afterglow falls in the forest, and you ride a horse, as if you have traveled through time. Sirami took the lead, her hips hunched over the saddle, her big breasts swaying on the horseback, her laughter echoing through the forest in the haze. Xia Lei looked at her, and for a moment he suddenly felt that he had traveled to the Xiongnu Dynasty more than a thousand years ago, and was flying with a Xiongnu princess.
However, Sirami will never become a noble princess, and he will never be able to travel to a world of more than a thousand years. It's just a romantic imagination.
Back at the Tribe, Charley made good on his promise. He picked up several buckets of water from the river, filled them into a large wooden barrel, and gave Sirami a bath. At first, Sirami was washing alone, and then Sirami dragged him into a large wooden barrel, and it became two people to wash. As a result, more than half of the buckets of water he picked up were splashed on the ground......
After a lot of nonsense, Xia Lei sat under the oil lamp and looked through the translations of ancient books sent by a tribal girl. The person Sirami found was really efficient, and she translated all the words in the ancient book in just one day. The translation is about 10,000 words, completely handwritten, and the girl who translated must have had very sore hands.
Xia Lei placed the ancient book on the table and read it against the translation.
The content recorded in the ancient books is similar to what Sirami described to him, and most of the ancient books record the historical events, important figures, large-scale sacrifices and ceremonies of the Xiongnu people, and so on. These contents can also be found in other history books, but they are not as detailed and true as in this ancient book.
Finally, Xia Lei moved his gaze to the hand-drawn map, found the translation and looked at it.
The content of the translation: Princess Yongmei came from the Silk Road, with 3,000 armor soldiers, 500 war horses, swords like a forest, and countless seeds of all kinds. The people of the tribe welcomed and bowed. Princess Yongmei held a copper plate, walked on foot, selected the site with a needle, built a city with a soldier, and the name of the white horse was tomorrow......
Seeing this, Xia Lei was already dumbfounded, although he couldn't see if the compass in Princess Yongmei's hand was the one he repaired, but he was sure that Princess Yongmei definitely didn't come to this wild place to build a city for no reason.
"Could it be that Princess Yongmei of the Ming Dynasty is also looking for what I am looking for?" Xia Lei couldn't help but have such a thought in his heart.
Continuing to look down, it describes the content of Princess Yongmei's economic and military development to defend against foreign enemies. The people of the Xiongnu tribe believed that this princess from the Ming Dynasty would definitely help them restore the country and rebuild the Xiongnu dynasty. Until he finished reading it, Xia Lei didn't find the existence of any Xiongnu prince, let alone a poignant love story.
What Sirami said is right, the story of the princess and the prince is really unreliable.
Xia Lei said secretly in his heart: "Hundreds of years ago, Princess Yongmei brought three thousand Ming Dynasty soldiers here, not for love, nor for political marriage, because at that time the Xiongnu were finished, would the Yongle Emperor marry his daughter to a worthless Xiongnu prince?" Apparently impossible. However, if it weren't for love or political marriage, if it was just a treasure hunt, she could have dug up and left, so why build a city here? ”
There are many places where Xia Lei can't figure it out, and he is even worried that Princess Yongmei has already taken the lead and has already dug up what he wants to dig.
"Natsu, when are you going to see it?" Under the covers, Sirami stretched out one of her legs and hooked it gently.
Xia Lei's train of thought was interrupted, he closed the ancient book, and his eyes moved to the jade leg that poked out of the bed, it was snow-white and delicate, crystal clear, and full of temptation.
"What's so good about that ancient book? I'll show you something better. "Sirami seduces men from the East.
Xia Lei got up and walked over, guessing that he could not find an answer, and now was the time to do something instead of thinking about something......
The next day, Xia Lei went to the ruins of Tomorrow City in Whitehorse again, and this time Sirami did not follow. She wanted to follow Xia Lei to dig for treasure, but she was the chief, and she still needed to deal with the affairs of the tribe. Xia Lei is also happy to do this, if Sirami doesn't follow, his efficiency will be much faster.
Entering the ruins of the ancient city, Xia Lei rode straight to the palace ruins, without the need for a compass road, and he soon reached the edge of the earthen pit. After looking around a little and making sure there was nothing out of the ordinary, he jumped into the pit with his tools and shoveled up the dirt one by one......
This digging is another full day. The big pit of one and a half meters became three meters, and it was already difficult to throw the soil upward, but nothing was dug up.
Xia Lei threw the shovel aside, also a little deflated, "Damn, why are you buried so deep?" If it's buried more than 10 or 20 meters, how can I dig it? It's impossible for Mr. Shi to send an excavator, right? ”
At a depth of three meters, you can barely shovel dirt on the ground, but if you continue to dig down, you won't be able to shovel up the soil even with infinite strength.
The more he thought about it, the more depressed he became, and Xia Lei's gaze also moved to the compass placed on the wall of the earthen pit. The compass was about a meter from the bottom of the pit, and when digging this last meter deep, he only occasionally looked at the compass and did not take him down. This time, when he held the compass in his hand, the hands of the compass suddenly turned around, and then returned to its original position.
Xia Lei was surprised in his heart, and he then placed the compass at the bottom of the pit, and this time the compass needle vibrated more frequently, and pointed to the southeast. Until then, it was all pointing eastward.
Xia Lei looked at the earthen wall in the southeast, and then looked at the compass on the ground, he suddenly understood, and a smile appeared on his face, "In the end, it's time to dig horizontally." ”
Although it is not yet known how far you need to dig horizontally, it is certainly much less difficult to dig horizontally than vertically.
Xia Lei picked up the shovel and dug a few more times, and the satellite phone suddenly rang.
It was Shi Boren who called, and he said straight to the point: "Tomorrow at two o'clock in the morning, the plane will drop the supplies you need." ”
"Okay, I'm waiting for it." Xia Lei said.
"What's the progress?"
A big hole was dug and I was talking to you in the pit. But I haven't dug up anything yet, give me some more time. Xia Lei said.
"Well, we're in Pakistan, we'll find a way to buy you time, and after you go back, let the people of the White Hun tribe prepare to receive supplies, and that's it, the call ends." After speaking, Shi Boren hung up the phone.
Xia Lei put away the satellite phone and said secretly in his heart: "The 101st Bureau is now active in Pakistan, presumably Mr. Shi and Long Bing have a way to attract the attention of the CIA, no wonder my side is so clean." However, this is not a long-term solution, and I still have to dig up things and get out of here as soon as possible. ”
As soon as he thought of leaving, Xia Lei naturally thought of Sirami, and his heart was inevitably sad. Although he and Sirami are not together because of any love, once that kind of relationship occurs between men and women, even if it is not love, there are still intimate feelings. Moreover, he also has a sense of indebtedness to Sirami. Therefore, he asked for supplies to the White Hun tribe, and even paid two million US dollars in cash to the White Hun tribe out of his own pocket, he actually wanted to make up for Sirami and the White Hun tribe in this way.
Back at the tribe, Charlei told Sirami about the airdrop of supplies at two o'clock tomorrow morning. Sirami immediately gathered his men and horses to prepare, and all the tribe's ox carts were collected, and bonfires were lit in several places suitable for airdropping supplies, which were used as signal lights.
The women and men of the tribe also gathered, waiting to receive supplies. When night falls, the campfire is full of human heads, laughter and talking, and the scene is lively.
"Xia, what did you dig up today?" Next to the largest bonfire, Sirami curled up in Xia Lei's arms and asked in a tired voice.
"Nothing was found." Xia Lei said. There were a lot of eyes around him, looking at him and Cirami, but he was used to it. The night of his and Silami's "big wedding" is equivalent to a live broadcast, and he has experienced all kinds of big scenes, does he still care about the small scenes in front of him?
"I told you a long time ago, there is no treasure, you don't believe it......" Sirami suddenly remembered something, and said a little nervously: "If you can't dig anything, will you want to go back what you sent us?" ”
Xia Lei smiled: "I'm not a child, how can I take back the things I sent out?" Don't worry, I really want to help your tribe, and even if I can't dig a single hair in the end, I won't ask you for anything. After a pause, he leaned over to Cirami's little ear, bit her earlobe and said, "I did this because of you, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't be so stupid and give you so many supplies for nothing." ”
Sirami giggled, full of happiness, and she also naughtily leaned into Xia Lei's ear, and said with a hot breath: "If you want to pick hair, I can give you all I have." ”
Charleigh, "......"
This is Sirami, and if she doesn't, she's not Sirami.
At about 1:50 a.m., the roar of an airplane's engine was heard in the sky. Then, a huge Yun-20 military transport plane appeared from the sky and slowly flew over several bonfires. It was at that moment that several wooden crates fell from the sky, then opened their parachutes and slowly fell to the ground.
After dropping supplies, the Yun-20 military transport plane turned around and flew in the direction of Pakistan without stopping for another minute.
Several boxes of supplies were quickly collected, and Sirami had all the wooden boxes opened.
The supplies that Xia Lei asked for airdrops were all in wooden boxes. There are 100 latest Russian-made AK12 assault rifles and ammunition, as well as 10 domestically produced sniper rifles and ammunition. There are generator sets for the construction of hydropower stations, all of which are small. There are some small household appliances, rice cookers, electric blankets and so on. There are some engineering equipment, percussion drills and blasting devices with batteries and transformer equipment, and some professional grave digging tools such as Luoyang shovels. In the end, there were two million dollars in cash, several large bundles.
The women and men of the tribe cheered, and some people shot test guns with new AK12 assault rifles, and the gunfire was deafening. Some people danced around the campfire, and some people banged their heads against the big pile of dollars......
Sirami didn't seem interested in these things, and she walked up to Charleigh, wrapped her arms around his waist, and gave him a hot kiss.
