Chapter 47: Unintentional Gains (I)
The sudden rainstorm was like those rebellious tribal armies, fighting against Tang Guoming and others everywhere.
The rain, which was originally a little weak, suddenly became violent in just ten minutes after Tang Guoming and the others boarded the car and set off. The raindrops were like countless arrows from indigenous tribes, shooting at the pickup truck as if it had been strafed by ten machine guns at the same time. Even if the low beam is turned on, the light is completely blocked by the dense arrow curtain like a waterfall, and it is impossible to see the details of the road conditions in front of you.
If it is on the southeast coast of China, even on a slightly small stormy night, the moment the lightning tears the sky, the naked eye can at least see the outline lines between the sky and the thunderstorm clouds, but this African gale and rain seems to ignore any physical gravity, turning the entire Indian Ocean into the sky, and then pouring on this land!
The moment the lightning tore the heavy black curtain between the sky and the earth into blue and white, people could not see the outline between the sky and the thunderstorm clouds, the sky was like thick and heavy ink hanging upside down, and the earth was even darker, so dark that it was boundless......
Slowly stepped on the brakes, Pan Guan, who was driving, turned his head to look at Tang Guoming, who was sitting beside him, covered his mouth with his slap, and tried his best to block the rain that poured straight into his mouth, and then he reluctantly shouted to Tang Guoming: "The rut marks on the road ahead are completely invisible!" The rain is too heavy, and it won't be long before the road is expected to be washed away, so we have to find a place to take refuge! ”
Also blocking his hand in front of his mouth, Tang Guoming shouted at Pan Guan: "What about the battlefield radar? Doesn't it mean that the battlefield radar modified by Fu Xiaofei can detect the terrain environment within at least 50 meters even in thunderstorms? ”
Vigorously wiping the rain off the goggles, Pan Guan shook his head helplessly: "It's no fun!" This kind of weather has exceeded the limit of what the equipment can bear, and now the battlefield radar cannot detect even five meters! ”
Turning his head to look at Halbara, who was fiddling with the communicator in the carriage, Tang Guoming shouted loudly: "Have you contacted Sun Zhao?" ”
Waving his hand at Tang Guoming in annoyance, Halbara yelled in response: "Can't be contacted!" The devil knows if it's the effect of a thunderstorm, and the communicator is so distracted that it can't receive any readable information at all! ”
Tang Guoming: "Electronic map? ”
Harbara: "Scrapped too!" Under such weather conditions, electronic products are basically deaf ears! Physical maps are also unreliable - during the rainy season on the African continent, precipitation can dramatically change the terrain in a matter of hours! Based on the current rainfall......"
Without waiting for Halbara to finish speaking, Gu Weisu, who was sitting in the carriage with a sniper rifle and a sniper rifle, suddenly spoke: "Our position is too low, the rain is gathering here, and it won't be long before we will be soaked in water!" ”
Turning the steering wheel vigorously, Pan Guan couldn't help but drive towards a faintly visible hill near the left side of the road: "Then what now?" In low-lying areas, there is a high risk that monsoon rivers or lakes will be formed by rainfall....... A few of us are driving a car now, which is equivalent to a large lightning rod, and we will be killed by lightning! ”
The map made of waterproof and heat-resistant materials was found from his chest pocket, and before Tang Guoming could speak, Pan Guan, who was sitting in the driver's seat, had already turned on the tactical flashlight and projected a bright pillar of light onto the map.
Glancing at the high-scale topographic map, Tang Guoming stretched out his hand and pointed to the location of an abandoned building on the map: "Four kilometers away from us, some abandoned buildings turned out to be supply depots established by anti-poaching organizations. It's on high ground, so let's go there and take shelter from the rain first! ”
Reaching out and patting the steering wheel, Pan Guan shouted reluctantly: "What about the car?" There's no way between that place and where we are! ”
Turning around and jumping out of the carriage, Halbara vigorously carried the war supplies collected from the farm on his shoulders: "What more bicycles do you need at this time?!" ”
Shaking his head helplessly, Pan Guan could only drive the car to a higher position on the side of the road after everyone jumped out of the car, and then used a few stones to resist the tires as much as possible, and then raised his hand and threw an electronic signal generator into the car.
Facing the torrential rain, Tang Guoming and the others walked towards the abandoned buildings marked on the map after they had identified the direction. With the help of the lightning that lit up in the sky from time to time, Tang Guoming and the others finally managed to maintain the speed of the normal march in the torrential rain. After about an hour, Bao Lei, who was at the front of the line, had already seen the outline of the building that flashed in front of him at the moment of lightning.
Stretching out his hand to wipe the rain on his face, Bao Lei just wanted to turn around and greet Tang Guoming and the others who were walking behind him, but Gu Weisu, who was walking not far from Bao Lei's side, suddenly stopped, squatted down, and played the tactical sign language of 'stop advancing'.
Quickly squatting down, Tang Guoming and the others quickly set up a standard squad defensive formation according to their guns, and observed the movements around them with the help of the light of lightning - in such a thunderstorm night, even the most sophisticated night vision equipment could not cope with the visual light conversion when light and dark alternated, and it was completely useless.
Staring at the abandoned buildings visible within the visual range, Gu Weisu narrowed his eyes slightly, and carefully judged the figures in the building that seemed to be faintly shaking from the corners of his eyes with the most dense photoreceptor cells, trying to determine his judgment from it.
As a professional sniper, it's not so much about judging the details of the battlefield with a pair of eyes, ears, and nose, but rather using your whole body to gather all the information that is useful to you from the battlefield.
At the moment when the lightning lit up, the abandoned building that Gu Weisu saw in his sight suddenly gave Gu Weisu an extremely uneasy feeling. It's like a vole foraging in the wilderness that stumbles past a cave where a poisonous snake lurks - and although you can't see the snake spitting letters, the feeling of threat is real!
Taking a deep breath, Gu Weisu picked up the sniper rifle in his hand and aimed the doors and windows of the abandoned building with a sight with a heat source detection function.
From the sights, it appears that there are no heat generators with a body temperature of more than thirty degrees Celsius in the abandoned building. But within the contours of the building, there were always unstable, less than thirty degrees Celsius heat generators moving frequently, and it looked like some cold-blooded animals roaming up and down the building with impunity.
Slowly lowering the sniper rifle in his hand, Gu Weisu turned around and looked at Tang Guoming, who was squatting not far behind him, and quickly played a series of tactical sign words: "It is recommended to approach and investigate!" ”
