Chapter 0242 - The Earth is a Kang
As the rookies left, Xue Lang looked around, pointed to a mountain root and said: "From here, a group of ten people, a pit every five meters, each pit is ten meters wide and five meters deep, five meters away from the ground of the mountain root, let's start!" ”
Digging a cave?
All the team members and the old bird paused, and then understood, what kind of house is this, isn't it just a strong man on the ground?
They had spent time in the vicinity of the boar's den, and had seen the cave-like dwelling that they couldn't tell if they didn't look closely.
But Zhang Ming still asked: "Report!" Is it a hole cut or a whole excavation? ”
Xue Lang left the front of the queue, walked to the root of the mountain, drew a square with the shovel in his hand at the position that needed to be excavated, and said: "The ground is level, dig out the root of the mountain, dig it up until the rock, the back is vertical, and all of it is buckled." ”
Now everyone understood that it was to dig a square pit on the hillside, so they quickly began to dig.
Thirty old birds, twenty-one team members, twenty captains, plus Cheng Weiguo and others, all went into battle, waved their pickaxes, and the rotation of shovels began.
As for Tonghai, he has already followed the rookies to work, and he is not a member of this group, at least it will not be.
Xue Lang didn't participate in the work, he was too familiar with it here, but he still had to plan, after all, there were five or six hundred people, domestic garbage, standing guards, the location of open and dark sentry, and the basic training ground also needed to remove bushes and weeds.
Although the ground is leveled when the snow falls, it is still necessary to avoid hurting people by the roots of the trees under the snow, which is too unfortunate.
Although the amount of work is not small, it is far from digging trenches, and the amount of work to repair the fortifications is large, and the mountain here is quite soft except for the broken stones that roll down in the soil, after all, it is formed by the mud flowing down all year round.
When batches of oak wood and hazelwood were sent back by the soldiers, and the needs were satisfied, the pits had been dug one by one.
Then, Xue Lang instructed everyone to drive piles in the pit with thick oak wood with a bowl mouth, and then horizontally, row up layer by layer with oak wood, lined up into a wooden wall, and tied it with schisandra rattan and dog jujube rattan, and blocked the place leaning on the soil with hazel firewood, and began to backfill.
Everyone understands that the feeling is that this is a house similar to a wooden cage house, but it relies on the mountain to make it, which is different from the house.
There is no technical content in this work, and most of it is considered body lì work.
But the amount of work is still a lot, and when the first hadron is framed and almost capped, it is already noon.
Looking at the hazelwood piled up on the ground and the four- or five-meter-long oak wood, and looking at the ground hadron that already has a large frame, even those rookies can see that the feelings are similar to the meaning of the earlier bunker.
Xue Lang didn't care what everyone thought, simply buried the pot to cook, hurriedly ate lunch, and then, the rookies were divided into two groups, and one wave began to extend and dig left and right along the location of several hadrons that had been dug out, and the other wave rushed to the location of the mouth of the canyon, where there was a bare shale stubble, which was suitable for picking stone slabs.
After Xue Lang brought back the slate, he began to command the fire dragon to build the ground, and how to build the fire dragon without the slate, and explained it in detail to the old bird and the captains of each team.
When everyone watched the captain paste the erected bucket of dead trees with yellow mud mixed with broken hay, they understood that this feeling was a chimney.
But everyone still has doubts, that is, will this dead tree not be in it?
But no one asked, and if they needed to explain, the instructor would say it, so they all worked hard, feeling fresh and thinking that the method was too earthy.
It's modernized, why do you want to make all of this? It's not the period of resistance to the United Nations, it's hard, and there are no conditions.
In fact, when Xue Lang first came to this mountain at the same time, but in a different environment, he also had this idea, but as time passed, this doubt gradually faded.
Because modern warfare cannot avoid the need for such a need for survivability in the wild, otherwise, in the early years, a tragedy in the alpine region would not have occurred.
That time it was a transport regiment that rushed to the barracks at an altitude of more than 5,000 meters to deliver supplies, but was trapped by the sudden heavy snowfall. The engine stalled due to the air filter being stuck by the snow particles blown by the wind, and froze and cracked, so that the soldiers lost the basis for keeping warm, and finally burned the tires, burned a qiē to keep warm, but still failed to hold out until the arrival of rescue, and the whole regiment was killed.
If you had known how to survive in the snow at that time, you could have guaranteed that no one would have died.
In other words, modernization, it is still necessary to have ancient survivability, no need to be better, but when needed, losses can be reduced.
They are all strong laborers, and they are not technical work, and these troop elites are under the command of Xue Lang, and before it gets dark, one by one the hadron will be formed.
Led the team to a forest called water melon a kilometer away, and carried back the trunks and branches of the water melon that were cut down in the summer.
As the fire dragons were stuffed into the dry wood and lit it, after just a few minutes of thick smoke came out, the chimneys that had been erected and exceeded the "roof" that was already roughly the same as the mountain burst into flames, and they grew bigger and bigger, and finally, a whining sound could be heard below, and it was a meter or two high, like fire-breathing dragons, obviously the chimneys were on fire.
At this time, Xue Langcai explained: "Such a chimney can dry quickly and be strong by fire, although it can't catch up with bricks, it will not cause the skin to fall off due to moisture, and it can be used for many years." ”
Cheng Weiguo looked at the fire dragons and exclaimed: "Wisdom is in the people, otherwise, the vertical chimney must not be made of adobe?" Don't dry out and smoke every day? ”
Xue Lang said with a smile: "This is the most commonly used method, and there is another way to use tree strips or hazelwood to tie into a cylinder, and paste yellow mud on the outside, the effect is almost the same, and when the chimney needs to be concealed earlier, it can also go up along the soil of the hillside, dozens of meters later, it comes out of the hidden dead tree, and the smoke comes out along the dead tree twenty or thirty meters high, and is blown away by the wind, it is difficult to smell the smell, and the exact location of the ground hadron cannot be found." ”
Cheng Weiguo looked at the smoke around him and the fresh soil and asked, "Can you live here?" ”
Xue Lang shook his head and said, "Sleep out tonight, clean the training ground tomorrow, and move in the day after tomorrow." ”
Living in the wild?
Cheng Weiguo glanced at the location of the piled up materials, there were no tents, no sleeping bags, sleeping in the wild, what to use for heating? Even if it hasn't frozen yet, the temperature in the mountains will be more than 10 degrees below zero at night.
Xue Lang knew that Cheng Weiguo was puzzled, smiled and said: "Most of these people have experienced the days of being a quilt and a bed, but they have not necessarily experienced the life of being a quilt and a kang. ”
When the ground is a kang?
Cheng Weiguo was confused.
Xue Lang didn't explain what Didangkang was, and let Cheng Weiguo be confused.
However, this doubt of the process of defending the country did not last long, Xue Lang ordered everyone to use firewood and sickles to clear all the open space around the roots of the mountain with firewood and sickles, cut down the shrubs and hazel firewood, and pull up all the dead leaves around to avoid causing a mountain fire.
Everyone doesn't know what this is for, but they are all fresh, after all, they are not like Xue Lang's employees, they are all from bitter cold places, many of them are in the city, and they are full of freshness.
Hundreds of people were busy, and when the communications corps pulled the underground cable a kilometer away from here, that is, the wind turbine in the barracks, to prepare the underground cables for the power and communication network for the first hadron, and when they received this place that was considered a military barracks, an open space that exceeded the area of a football field was cleared.
The weeds and shrubs that had been cut down were piled up in the clearing, only three or four meters apart, four or five meters apart, and they were all more than a meter high.
Xue Lang asked everyone to look around, although the pile of firewood in the open field was a hundred and ten meters away from the root of the mountain, they still had to prevent the spread of the mountain fire.
With an order, the accumulation was ignited, and in just ten minutes, the fire was raging, and the flames were three or four meters high, burning fiercely in the gray mountain forest where the sun had set.
Crackling sparks sputtered everywhere, and the temperature of the flames was twenty or thirty meters away. Fortunately, there is no wind, or if you don't take advantage of the wind, you can't get close to people for thirty or forty meters.
This will be the strictest stage of fire prevention in winter, if this is seen by the first pole forest fire prevention, then it is not frightened? That large area of redness, once it spreads, it will be a disaster.
However, all the weeds and shrubs were piled up, as well as hazelwood wood, and the speed of burning was very fast, and in ten minutes, the fire slowly weakened, and in less than half an hour, there was no open flame in sight.
Although there is no open flame, the temperature there is still ridiculously high, and it is impossible to get close at all, and the ground is estimated to be able to make cakes.
Xue Lang waited for the fire to be extinguished, then he breathed a sigh of relief, and ordered enough people to be left around to watch it, so as to prevent the fire in the ashes from drifting to the surrounding mountains and forests if the wind picked up and caused a fire.
By this time, Cheng Weiguo had already understood that the ground here was already hot, and if it was covered with hay, it would definitely not be too cold overnight.
It's really a kang......
He is not from the mountains, he doesn't know how risky it will be, and he doesn't know how much risk Xue Lang can't help it, without using tents and sleeping bags, these elites who have not experienced wilderness survival training in cold regions, how many people can participate in tomorrow's labor and training after one night.
Sure enough, Cheng Weiguo's guess was confirmed, after the sky was completely dark, the temperature dropped sharply, and everyone had already eaten dinner, Xue Lang asked everyone to use branches in the ashes, and after confirming that there was no open fire, the ashes were cleaned up, piled up far away from the roots of the mountain, and thoroughly splashed with water taken from the distant stream to ensure that there would be no recurrence.
On this night, although everyone slept in the wild, they were destined not to freeze.
