Volume 1 Bath in Fire Chapter 311 Snow Sneaking Rehearsal
Chapter 311: Snow Sneaking Rehearsal
In the dark night, on the vast sea, it is very difficult to maintain low-altitude flight, but fortunately, this plane was originally an American cargo, and after some camouflage by the computer kitten, the signal of friend or foe sent by this plane made people mistakenly think that it was a night training plane of the Air Force......
Of course, afterwards they will find out that the local military did not have the corresponding training + planning, so the appearance of this military plane is very strange...... But An Feng won't pay much attention to these after-the-fact matters, his operation was registered within the high-level intelligence agencies, and if the air force agencies begin to strictly investigate this unknown and strange low-flying aircraft, the intelligence agencies will eventually come out to cover it up.
Some mobile phones will send their own location signals even if they are not equipped with a mobile phone card. An Feng loaded Ryan's fake identity on the ship for the purpose of this. The loading process of his data was very short, and the signal sent by the mobile phone was not obvious, but the signal was sent after all, and the intelligence agency would judge according to the signal afterwards that An Feng appeared in the nearby sea area at that time......
And then there is a strange Air Force fighter plane in the nearby seas, which is not trained + planned, so will the intelligence agencies still wonder what is going on?
With the help of this fighter plane to leave the nearby sea area, it wants to rely on its ultra-high speed and strong long-range flight capability, which is far beyond the reach of civilian aircraft.
After an hour's flight, An Feng had flown over Mexico and flew quickly in the direction of Central America, because it was flying at full speed, the fuel needle on the fuel gauge was slowly descending at a speed that could be checked by the naked eye, and after an hour, An Feng flew over Ecuador, and the fuel had entered the alarm position.
It's time. An Feng gestured at Argyle.
There were no personal belongings on this plane that needed to be taken away, except for the two small suitcases containing documents that the two of them needed to carry, and the two small suitcases with fake identities had already been put into the "time gate" by An Feng in Argyle's misguided eyes, so the two of them didn't take anything, and jumped off the plane directly with a parachute on their backs, and the plane continued to fly forward according to the set flight procedure after the two parachuted - it still had enough fuel to fly for twenty minutes, and then the plane would crash into the sea.
When the parachute approached the peak, the wind blowing up along the hillside was very strong, and even the square parachute used by the special forces was difficult to control the landing direction, and when they finally landed on the ground, the difference between An Feng and Argyle's landing distance was at least ten kilometers.
Fortunately, the landing point is only more than 3,000 meters above sea level, and the distance of more than ten kilometers is still easy to walk, so it is not a problem to achieve convergence on the same day.
An Feng recorded this with an instrument - even if two highly skilled airborne troops landed in the mountains, the accuracy of the landing point was within ten kilometers.
That night, An Feng and Argyle converged, and by this time An Feng had already carried a 70-kilogram travel backpack and a 90-kilogram travel backpack in his hand, the latter for Argyle. Argyle didn't ask where the travel backpack came from, he shouldered the backpack and silently followed An Feng and began to climb.
An Feng entered the Andes from over the Atlantic Ocean, and he chose Aconcagua as his target for climbing
"Aconcagua" means "Giant's Lookout" in the Wapi language, and the mountain is nicknamed "Giant of the Americas". Located at the northwest end of the Argentine province of Mendoza, near the border with Chile, it is the highest mountain outside of Asia at an altitude of 59 meters above sea level, and is considered the highest peak in the western and southern hemispheres. The peak is located in the northern Andes Mountains, on the border of the province of Doxa in northwestern Argentina, but its western flank extends into the lowlands along the coast of Santiago de Chile. There are several mountains with an altitude of more than 6,000 meters in the vicinity of this mountain range, which is enough for alpine exercises.
An Feng holds a multi-functional mountaineering device in his hand, which can be used as an altimeter, as a pedometer to record the number of steps a person walks, and can also be used as a barometer, walkie-talkie, latitude and longitude gauge, etc. Holding this thing, people go up the mountain, and together they will automatically record the change in altitude, as well as the change in marching speed due to the altitude... After the recorded data is automatically stored by the instrument, it will be handed over to the computer kitten for analysis.
At an altitude of four thousand meters above sea level, the sun set relatively late, the last ray of sunlight on the horizon disappeared, and the entire mountainous area had become hazy.
First, take out a cashmere sweater made of Kashmiri cashmere, which is said to be as warm as two down jackets...... Well, by international standards, the warmth coefficient of this cashmere sweater is
Take off all the clothes on your body, put on a cashmere sweater, as well as shorts and trousers woven from cashmere sweaters, these cashmere products are specially made for alpine areas, according to the test, the main heat dissipation point of the human body is in the crotch and armpits, so the crotch and armpits of cashmere sweaters are thickened.
The cashmere jacket is a quick coat, and this layer of fast clothes is designed to breathe and prevent the rapid loss of body temperature due to sweat. Quickly put on a fleece jacket over the clothes, this fleece jacket is also specially made, it belongs to the tight-fitting stretch fleece, and this layer of clothing is set up for ease of movement.
At an altitude of 4,000 meters above sea level, such clothes can already reach a heat retention coefficient of more than U.
Next, An Feng and Argyle turned on the blue fluorescent headlamps, and they began to test the speed of night marching, as well as record the problems that night marching might encounter.
The main difficulty of marching at night is that the visual distance is too short, and it is impossible to see the distant target and the surrounding terrain clearly, so that it is impossible to make predictions and distinguish where you are. But with satellite navigators, as well as the corresponding low-light night vision equipment, this problem is solved.
The trouble is that marching with night vision devices requires carrying heavy batteries...... But now with the high-energy nuclear battery designed by the computer kitten, the size is similar to the mobile phone battery, a battery can provide power supply for all the power equipment on the body, and it can be used for a year, so you don't have to worry about the lack of battery power.
At dawn, An Feng and Argyle marched to an altitude of 5,000 meters above sea level, and the two found a leeward spot and began to pitch their tents to prepare for rest—when they reached the mountains of Pakistan, they must probably also use this method of marching at night and sleeping during the day.
At an altitude of five thousand meters, they really felt the cold, and An Feng and Argyle took out another piece of clothing from their backpacks and began to record the altitude of their increased clothes. The newly taken out garment is a heating suit, the exterior of the garment is woven with Kevlar silk, which has a slight bulletproof effect, and the elastic device is used at each joint to ensure that the garment will not be hooked and will not get in the way when rolling.
In the Iraq War, the military uniforms worn by US soldiers were air-conditioned suits, which required a refrigeration device and were heavier, while simple heating only required some metal resistance wires woven into the clothing. For the human body, there is no need to use too high a temperature for heating, 42 degrees is enough, the temperature is too high and the skin will feel the burning pain of burns, in the infrared telescope, such a target will be bright and blind.
Snow suits and hot suits) are controlled by microchips, and after the open parts of the clothes such as wrists, ankles, and necks are completely closed, the temperature control device in the clothes will automatically adjust the heating power according to the body temperature, and this new set of clothes also needs to be powered by batteries, for the average American soldier, the high-energy batteries they carry may be heavy, and the use lasts for only one day at most. The batteries that the CIA has configured for agents are smaller than those of ordinary soldiers and can last up to seventy-two hours.
However, Anfeng now has a nuclear battery. A pair of nuclear batteries brought up the heating suit, and at the same time drove the tactical glasses, and drove all the side energy instruments that he carried with him, which was still as light as a weight - this pair of batteries could keep An Feng in use for five years.
The tent that An Feng carried was coated with a layer of matte aluminum foil on the outside, this kind of tent was stuck in the snow col, almost blending with the ice and snow, if you didn't get close and look closely, you couldn't feel the existence of the tent, but this tent was not the top equipment of the agent, it is said that there is now a full stealth tent, and the surface of the tent is coated with a layer of matte paint similar to chameleon's skin, which can be controlled by a computer to make it mimic the surrounding terrain.
This kind of imitation is not simply imitating the color of the surrounding terrain, it is based on the principle of three-dimensionalization to increase the light and shade changes, so that when people approach the tent, even if they step on the tent, the visual deviation seen in the eyes will make the other party unable to distinguish the existence of the tent.
This kind of color-changing stealth tent is also stored in An Feng's "Time Gate", but because it is a training subject, An Feng did not take out the stealth tent - the more expensive the equipment, the more delicate it is, and An Feng does not want the expensive stealth tent to be scrapped because of an accident.
After setting up the tent, An Feng laid a special moisture-proof mat with a moisture insulation coefficient of 8 at the bottom of the tent, and then laid a snow carpet with a thermal insulation coefficient of 4 - these two things are also compressed objects, sucking out the air inside, rolling up, they only have the thickness of cigar smoke, and once the inflatable hole is unscrewed, the mat begins to inflate automatically, and the countless small inflatable bags in the cushion are far away from the air according to the capillary, and the whole mat reaches a thickness of five centimeters.
At this thickness, even if there are some ice cubes or bulging rocks on the snow, the person lying on the mat does not feel panicked.
Argyll slipped into his sleeping bag and began to rest, before resting he set a two-hour alarm for his watch, which was also specially made, with five electronic buttons on the side of the dial, and with each press of the electronic button, the watch changed a function, which was not only a mutual friend or foe, but also emitted a weak positioning signal, and could also vibrate the bell to call the sleeping soldier on duty.
An Feng wandered outside the tent, not only to observe the tent from all sides, to investigate the location of the tent on the spot, but also to arrange the alarms outside the tent, these alerts were called "eyes" by the agents, it was a combination of ground vibration sensors, and infrared signal sensors, once the volume of more than one cubic meter, weighing more than fifteen kilograms of creatures near the tent, the signal sent by the sensors would make the watches in the hands of the two people vibrate.
In order to have enough reaction time, the sensor needs to be set up one kilometer away from the tent, An Feng arranged five "eyes" around, this large circle has taken two hours, and when he does this, although no one on the hill observes him, he still strictly follows the requirements of the textbook, and tries his best to hide his figure with every move.
By the time An Feng returned to the tent, Argyle had already been awakened by the alarm clock on his wrist, and he began to take over An Feng's sentry post, also going out to wander around, checking the surrounding terrain...... In fact, after the "eye" was laid out, Argyle's correct action was to squat in the tent to prevent others from discovering traces of activity, but now it is a drill.
Argyle also needed to test his ability to lurk in the mountains through actual measurements, so he also walked around like An Feng, checked the arrangement of the "eyes" one by one, and added a few "eyes" where he thought they were loopholes.
Two hours later, An Feng woke up, it was Argyle's turn to sleep, and they slept alone for four hours during the whole day, and after eight hours, the two of them were already so hungry that their chests were close to their backs, and their throats were smoking. This is because there is a lack of oxygen in the alpine area, and the maintenance of body temperature in the human body requires a lot of energy, so in such an environment, people are easy to be hungry and thirsty, but they can't eat - digestive function also needs to consume a lot of oxygen
An Feng looked at his action recorder, and then used this recorder to test his and Argyle's pulse, body temperature and other physical conditions, at this time, he took out the food from the backpack, and the two began to eat separately - the energy food on the mountain, that is, chocolate, and soup rich in cocoa butter.
According to the regulations, soldiers need to eat at least 463 grams of high-calorie food per meal in the field, in the alpine environment, and in the alpine environment, sometimes people need to eat six meals a day, or even eight meals, two of which are at night. Therefore, in the absence of supplies, a person stays in the alpine environment for a day, and he has to carry four kilograms of food alone, and at the same time needs to carry about three kilograms of water.
Of course, when you really get to the mountains of Pakistan, the supply points laid along the way will be An Feng's cover, and those supply points will either be covered by snow in a short time, or because of the cold in the mountains, the batteries inside cannot power the positioning device, so as to lose the whereabouts of the airborne tank.
Chocolate is as hard as a brick in the frozen state, and the field soldier food fully takes this into account, each individual food is equipped with a heating packet, the heating bag contains two parts of chemicals, clench your fist and slam the heating pack, the medicine in the heating pack is mixed together, it will immediately emit a high heat, this high heat will instantly heat the heating pack to 200 degrees Celsius, but this high heat can not make the outer packaging of the heating pack burn or turn red.
These heating packs can be used repeatedly, fill the field marching pot with the heating pack, and then bury the bagged food that needs to be heated in the heating bag, after five minutes, the food pack begins to emit a trace of heat, An Feng and Argyle began to tear open the food packet quickly, gobbling up food - in the alpine environment, every trace of heat is precious, and the heated food is eaten later, these foods will quickly turn into popsicles.
A serving of chocolate and a cup of hot cocoa butter will make the stomach feel empty, but the body needs enough calories, and the reason why the stomach feels hungry is an emergency response to the cold environment of the mountains, as long as you ignore it, it doesn't matter. But if you have to eat enough at every meal, then when An Feng comes down the mountain, he will definitely gain a few kilograms - the animals in the mountains have become obese and clumsy under this emergency response.
It stands to reason that An Feng and Argyle can't eat at the same time, and at least one person needs to be sentry outside the tent, but because it's an experience journey, these small aspects don't matter. It stands to reason that An Feng and Argyle will continue to lurk until the sun disappears in the mountain, and the two can not get back on the road, but An Feng's itinerary is full, and he needs to climb over the top of the mountain at an altitude of 6,000 meters in two days to reach the other side of the mountain, so the two packed their bags after dinner and began to continue climbing.
For the rest of the trip, the two of them took a break every two hours, ate a little food, and replenished their physical fitness, and at this altitude, their boots had been changed to specific snow boots, and their tactical glasses had also changed to hazel to prevent alpine snow blindness. At this time, the headlamp on their heads also turned a dark red, this red color is not reflective on the snow, and it is not easy to be detected when acting, the only flaw is that the sight distance is not far, but it has the effect of tactical glasses, and the sight distance is not far can be forgiven.
In the anoxic environment of the high mountains, the work of climbing the rocks will be very difficult, An Feng has an oxygen cylinder stored in the time gate, but in order to test his physical fitness, he did not take out the oxygen cylinder and breathing mask, the two climbed all the way, all by their own body base, this night passed, they have approached the top of the mountain, feeling that their physical strength is still left, the two did not rest at dawn, and climbed over the hill in one go, entering the top of the Andes.
The descent was a fast journey, and it took them a day to reach a small village in the middle of the mountain, by which time they were already in Chile. An Feng bought the only double-row truck in the village, he changed his outfit with Argyle, and drove the double-row car to a nearby town - a plane that An Feng had pre-rented and parked in the agreed town.
In the evening, the two rushed to the town, at this time the two had actually not slept for thirty hours, but this was nothing, both of them were a little excited, this is the "drunk oxygen" state from the alpine environment down to the flat land, along with the "drunk oxygen" state, the two of them still have a slight headache, but these are nothing, now what they need most is to rush to the collective territory of Mayotte as soon as possible.
There is no night flight equipment in the town, there is no airport with good performance, but this is not an obstacle, An Feng drove the plane into the air in the vast darkness, taking advantage of the night he drove the plane over the Andes, almost re-walked the road of climbing just now, and after crossing the narrow land of South America, the Indian Ocean was already in front of him, and after the plane flew for three hours, in the heaviest night, An Feng landed near the island to which Mayotte belonged.
The small runboat moored there in advance had been filled with fuel, An Feng and Argyle drove the speedboat to the cliff side of the small island of Mayotte, and the speedboat gently drilled into the rock crevice on the edge of the cliff and entered the lava cave in the rock - this small rock crevice on the edge of the cliff is only a gap about two meters wide on the water, but the underwater part is very wide enough to accommodate large ships to enter, but unfortunately, the underwater part is flooded by sea water all year round.
