Chapter 398: Crossing the River
Gao Yuan was chopping tree branches, trying to cover the body as tightly as possible.
After a simple disguise, Gao Yuan and the others moved a lot of things from the car, such as the inflatable boats necessary for crossing the river, which had been placed on the ground, and if the cleaners really sent someone to search here, then they would evacuate with at least four inflatable boats.
The most important thing is the weapons and ammunition, and as for water and food, it has become less important at this time.
The real action should be carried out at night.
Klaus was wearing a gilly suit, which he had made improvise, and on a large net-like cloak, all of which were covered with thatch all over the grassland, the camouflage effect was very good.
Now it was time to prepare for the reconnaissance and crossing the river at night, so most of the people had to come back to get their own equipment, and if they could afford it, they could get as many weapons and ammunition as possible, because on the next road, they could only walk on two legs and rely on the ammunition they carried to support the battle.
That is, most of the things were discarded with the car, which made Gao Yuan really distressed.
Reconnaissance, vigilance, this kind of thing is done by outsiders, and the rest of the camouflage and transportation work is left to the Spark team.
Yu Shunzhou took a sniper grenade from the car and said loudly to Nie Erlong: "Person, bring this, right?" ”
Nie Erlong looked at the pile of things around him and said, "I can't bring it, I can't carry it." ”
Nie Erlong had a rifle, ten magazines, a thousand rounds of loose ammunition, ten grenades, a bulletproof vest, a helmet, three days of field rations, a pistol and four full magazines, a Type 08 bazooka, knives, and a first-aid kit, night vision devices, walkie-talkies, and backup batteries for night vision devices and walkie-talkies.
All these things add up to nearly forty kilograms, and the weight after compressing food and water to the extreme, if you add the weight of a sniper grenade and a gun grenade, Nie Erlong will definitely not be able to afford it.
Nie Erlong's equipment is almost a microcosm of everyone in the Spark Squad, so even if it is a sniper grenade, no one can bring it.
Yu Shunzhou sighed, he had also hit the limit of his weight, but he was really reluctant to throw away a sniper grenade like this.
Li Jingang said on the side: "I see that angels use sniper grenades very commonly, and the use effect is also very good, well, it is better to free up two people and use sniper grenades specifically." ”
Freeing up two people to use sniper grenades meant having to give up two rifles and the ammunition they carried.
Gao Yuan thought for a while and said, "Who uses it?" ”
Li Jingang thought about it for a long time, and finally could only sigh helplessly.
Sniper grenades, as the name suggests, are grenade launchers that can snipe, and sniper rifles are not available to anyone, let alone sniper grenades.
Now that there are only a few people in the Spark team, there is really no way to find a person who can use a sniper grenade.
Takato looked and saw Renato sitting there, leaning against a tree and napping.
"This kid is quite comfortable."
Renato doesn't do anything, he's very idle all day long, and when Li Shuzi has become a packer, carrying dozens of pounds of equipment for others, Gao Yuan doesn't have such a good temper when he sees Renato empty-handed again.
Gao Yuan said to Yu Shunzhou: "Take down the sniper grenade, and take another twenty grenades, someone will carry it." ”
After saying that, Gao Yuan walked to Renato's side, and after waking Renato up, he smiled, "Uh, do me a favor." ”
"How can you help?"
Gao Yuan turned around and beckoned to Yu Shunzhou, and then he smiled: "A sniper grenade, twenty grenades, not heavy, at most more than ten kilograms, you can help carry it." ”
Renato immediately shook his head and said, "No, no, my body ......"
"If you don't help with the things, we won't take you with us."
Renato was a little dumbfounded, at this time Yu Shunzhou had already walked over with a sniper grenade, Gao Yuan took the sniper grenade and put it in Renato's arms, and said with a smile: "I'll give it to you, don't lose it, don't break it, huh?" ”
Gao Yuan didn't say anything, but his threat was still quite heavy, Renato exhaled, and said helplessly: "Okay, okay......"
Ignoring the reluctant Renato, Gao Yuan straightened up and looked around, it had been four hours, and the nine people who had gone out to investigate had never returned, but fortunately, there was no gunshot, and the situation should still be safe.
waited until it was almost dark, and the people who had gone out to investigate and guard finally returned one after another.
"There was no reconnaissance force approaching, we searched along the road and found a destroyed tank, which was supposed to be hit by an anti-tank bazooka, which had been burned, but the burned tank was dragged to the side of the road, which shows that the cleaners have enough manpower and machinery to clear the obstacles on the road."
A T55 tank is dozens of tons, even if it is destroyed, it is dozens of tons of scrap iron, there is no construction machinery and equipment or anything, and you can't move it if you want to, so it is the matter of moving the abandoned tank away, which also shows the ability of the cleaners and the importance they attach to this road.
After Soult finished speaking briefly, he took a sip of water and said, "Let's cross the river tonight, let's all go together, it's not safe to stay here now, and for us, both sides of the river are equally dangerous." ”
Gao Yuan must be as good as a stream, he glanced at his watch, and said, "You all hurry up and take a rest, we will act at eleven o'clock in the evening, is it okay?" ”
Soult thought for a moment, nodded and said, "Okay, let's go and rest first." ”
"We're on the alert."
Li Jingang led the people to disperse and set up secret posts around the area, but at this time, the danger of being raided basically did not exist.
After resting for a few hours, at ten o'clock in the evening, Soule and the others woke up almost at the same time, and then began to organize their equipment, and by eleven o'clock, they were ready to go.
"Me and the scarecrow are in front, the signal flag is on the left, the egg squad is on the right, the captain you lead the team in the middle, keep the distance within a kilometer, keep the radio silent, if you have to use the walkie-talkie in a situation, turn on the IR light to warn first, and then turn on the radio, is it okay?"
Soult was asking Gao Yuan, but he also made a decision for Gao Yuan, and of course Gao Yuan would not refuse.
"No problem, let's go."
Gao Yuan and each of them are equipped with night vision devices, so they have to keep the radio silent, and when they need to communicate at night, then it is a good choice to use IR lights that are invisible to the naked eye and can only be observed with night vision devices.
The weight was heavy, and care had to be taken to avoid being noticed, the speed of the march was not very fast, and it would take at least ten kilometers to get from the hiding place to the river.
So by the time I was able to hear the frogs chirping and smell the moist air, it was already three hours later.
A wide river appeared in front of Gao Yuan's eyes, the river was not very fast, but the river was really very wide.
There are dense reeds and bushes on the shore, so it is easy to hide when you really get to the river.
Keeping their guard on the line, and by the time the scattered crowd regrouped, Sirte had been observing for a while with a large night-vision reconnaissance device.
"There's no one on the other side, so the scarecrow and I will go over and reconnoiter first."
After Soult finished speaking, he looked around at the crowd: "Who has the ability and experience to swim in arms?" ”
The whole of the Egg Burst Squad, the two people of the signal flag, Li Jingang, they all raised their hands.
There are inflatable boats, but those who still need to go to reconnoiter can carry out armed swimming, whether it is crossing the sea or crossing the river, which is the minimum requirement for water-crossing landing operations.
Soult pondered for a moment, then he said in a deep voice, "Yuri, the four of us will go over and build a bridgehead on the other side of the river first, Ralph. ”
Soult looked at Ralph, and he said very seriously: "Captain, they lack experience in armed swimming, if you encounter an attack while crossing the river......
Ralph muttered, "Of course I know how to do it. ”
Soult sighed lightly and said, "After crossing the river, we will use light signals, you pay attention to the observation, according to the speed of the water flow and the width of the river, we will land one kilometer downstream, pay attention to the position." ”
The inflatable boat is the most labor-saving way to row down the river to the opposite shore at the same time, so after the Sirte and their landing on the other shore, they must be downstream.
When everything was ready, the four of them took only their combat equipment, got into the inflatable boats, and began to row silently across the river.
If there is night vision equipment, then a black inflatable boat is very noticeable on the bright water in the night vision goggles.
But there is no way to do this, after finding out that you are in a war zone, you can only cross the river as soon as possible, the faster the safer.
It took twenty minutes, and Takato could observe Sirte with a hand-held thermal image that they had ascended the river bank and entered the reeds on the opposite bank, and ten minutes later, he saw the IR lights come on and flicker continuously.
"They're landed, safe, and we're in the water."
The inflatable boat was already full of gas, the equipment and weapons had been put on, after Gao Yuan finished speaking, he pulled Xinghe on the inflatable boat, and after several people pushed the inflatable boat into the water, the three inflatable boats began to row silently to the other side of the river.
It took half an hour, because the people on Gao Yuan's boat were not very good at rowing, so the speed was a little slower, but the position did not deviate much, Gao Yuan and they finally came to the other side of the river under the help of Sirte and a few of them.
Yuri and Cuckold each grabbed the bow of the boat and dragged the inflatable boat to the shore, and Soult said urgently: "Quick, quick, tow the inflatable boat to the shore and hide, let's get out of here quickly." ”
The inflatable boat didn't weigh much, and after a few people hid the inflatable boat in the reeds, Soult said in a deep voice: "Follow me, after leaving the riverbank, continue to move forward in a scattered formation, we must pass here quickly." ”
There's nothing to say, just keep walking, and Sirte and they're leading the way twenty meters ahead, for they've just done a quick and rough search of the neighborhood.
But just out of the reeds, one of the members of the Egg Blaster team, who had been keeping an eye on both sides, was vigilantly watching the situation on the south side, when he suddenly paused, and then he suddenly leaned back, but after leaning back a little, he immediately leaned his head forward slightly, and then yelled in English.
As soon as Ralph heard the yelling of his subordinates, he immediately yelled in Chinese: "Lie down! Unmanned Sentinel System! ”
