Two recruits, holding binoculars, kept an eye on the tanker truck until they couldn't see it.

Firmly remember the direction in which the tanker truck disappeared, bypassed the checkpoint on the road, and the two quickly chased after it.

Now that they have fed their stomachs, they have rested relatively well last night, their physical strength and mental state are good, and they have run about eight kilometers in one go, and finally they see a feature that is not less than several kilometers long and resembles a mountain beam.

"Huh! This is not a mountain beam, this is the Great Wall. As he approached Shanliang and saw the face of Shanliang, Niu Zhiyuan suddenly thought of something and suddenly realized.

"The Great Wall, that's it?" Xia Junhao looked incredulous.

"This is the Great Wall of earth built in the Ming Dynasty, not the Great Wall of bricks and stones like Badaling in Kyoto." Niu Zhiyuan explained while looking curiously.

"Don't say it, take a closer look, it's really not a naturally formed mountain beam, there are obvious artificial traces, I was strange just now! How did such a long mountain beam suddenly appear on the flat Gobi Desert, which turned out to be the Great Wall of Earth, but it looked very weathered, and almost all the earthen walls became Earth Mountain Beams. After Xia Junhao looked at it carefully, his face was also abrupt.

The two of them talked, climbed the mountain beam formed after the weathering of the Great Wall of Earth, and looked around, the other side was still the Gobi Desert, but at the end of the mountain was the black oppressive mountain range, Niu Zhiyuan knew that it was also part of the Helan Mountain Range, but he still couldn't see the Blue Army oil depot they were looking for. It was here that the tanker truck disappeared from their field of vision, because there was a gap in the ridge formed by the Great Wall of Earth, just enough to allow vehicles to pass through.

However, this was difficult for Xia Junhao's reconnaissance, he soon found the car prints left by the fuel tanker, and the two of them ran forward for about three kilometers along the car prints, and the terrain gradually changed from a flat Gobi Desert to a hilly terrain. As they turned a hill, it suddenly dawned on them that there was an abandoned quarry the size of two football fields outside the Rich, and twenty black dots were placed in it.

Niu Zhiyuan hurriedly used a telescope to see that the twenty or so black spots were not tankers, what else could they be.

Because of the discarded mining

The whole quarry is a large pit, except for an exit, surrounded on all sides by mountain beams, and these tankers cannot find it unless it is close to a certain distance.

"This is the Blues oil depot, hidden enough to be hidden." Xia Junhao put away the binoculars with an excited face.

"The Blues attach so much importance to the oil depot, and the defense force is probably not simple, so we should be cautious, and wait until we must reconnoiter the specific situation and formulate a reliable combat plan before taking action." Niu Zhiyuan was not carried away by the excitement, and said calmly.

When Xia Junhao heard this, the excitement on his face disappeared, he nodded, and said: "That's right, it is true that we must be cautious, otherwise we will spend a lot of effort and come to give people heads, then it will really be laughing to death." ”

After carefully observing for a while, and after making sure that there was no lurking post on the periphery of the oil depot, the two men cautiously approached 500 meters, stopped on a hill more than 600 meters away from the oil depot, and used camouflage nets and terrain to build a simple concealed fortification, climbed inside and began to observe the Blue Army oil depot.

……

……

Soon, the time came to noon, although it was already early September, and there was already a cold night, but the sun was hot on the Gobi Desert at noon, and people with weak bodies climbed for a while enough to directly get sunstroke. But Niu Zhiyuan and Xia Junhao climbed for more than five hours, except for climbing to the back of the mountain to go to the toilet once and eating some things in turn, they were almost motionless.

And in the past five hours, they have gained a lot of money, there are latent posts at the four corners of the abandoned quarry where the oil depot is located, and they have seen it, and they have written down the location of the latent posts. The most important thing is that they discovered one thing, in addition to a mechanized infantry company of the 72nd Brigade, there was also a small group of 'Snow Wolf' special operators guarding the oil depot.

Such a result once made Niu Zhiyuan and Xia Junhao feel a lot of pressure, and almost gave up their actions for a while, but in the end, they encouraged each other and rekindled their fighting spirit, but they acted more cautiously and continued to observe patiently.

It was a whole day, and luckily they got enough food from the Blues field hospital, otherwise they would have fainted from hunger and had a fart fight.

……

The hard work paid off, and in the evening, they finally discovered the strangeness.

First of all, there was a group of sentinels, two sentries at the entrance and exit of the abandoned quarry vehicles, but they were not standing outside the quarry, but also inside the pit, which was unreasonable, because the view was blocked, and if there was a real enemy attack, they would not have time to act.

Secondly, they have not yet discovered that the other side has set up observation posts and firepower points on nearby commanding heights, which does not meet the requirements of defense. Therefore, it can only be said that the other party's observation posts and firepower points are very hidden, and there are enough people, and there is enough food and water, so there is no need to rotate with the people in the quarry.

With these two strange points, Niu Zhiyuan and Xia Junhao did not dare to move, and climbed motionless for five hours, and finally found the machine gunner suspected of being the 'Snow Wolf' team on a cliff west of the quarry. This discovery surprised the two recruits, because the slope of that position was already more than 80 degrees, almost a straight cliff, and ordinary people could not go up at all without the help of tools, and the reason why it was judged that the machine gunner there must be a member of the 'Snow Wolf' team was also based on this reason.

This discovery made Niu Zhiyuan and Xia Junhao even more afraid to act easily, carefully observing everything they could observe, and vainly trying to find out the flaws in the opponent's defense.

Originally, at this distance, the tanker truck was already within the effective range of Niu Zhiyuan's sniper rifle, but the Blues parked the tanker truck very smartly, all of which were placed next to the four perimeter edges of the quarry pit. This is clearly one of the main reasons why the Blues chose to set up the depot here.

"If only there was a mortar." Xia Junhao's face was unwilling and disappointed, they had been crawling motionless for more than ten hours, sweating from the sun during the day, and their throats were thirsty and smoking. Now that the sun is setting, the north wind is blowing and the chill is starting to feel again.

Finally, Xia Junhao couldn't help it, although he had experienced the training of scouts, but he crawled motionless, in terms of endurance, he was still not as good as Niu Zhiyuan, who had been trained as a sniper, at this time he couldn't help but lean to Niu Zhiyuan's side and whispered: "Niu Wa, about Hou Jiangtao, there is something I forgot to tell you!" ”
