The Shenxian Bay Outpost, a place in the distant Karakoram Mountains, has the highest, the most bitter, the most revered and concerned, and has the honorary title of "Karakoram Steel Outpost".

Ye Chen was introduced by Lian Chenghai like this, and he inevitably had a trace of yearning in his heart, even if the current environment was still very bad, but it did not affect his longing for there at all.

"Even the platoon commander, I'll go there when I have a chance in the future, it's fascinating!"

Lian Chenghai pointed at Ye Chen and said, "You! The heart is really big enough, so let's learn your own knowledge! ”

Ye Chen continued disappreciatively: "You are in charge of this company platoon commander, don't say it, as soon as you say that, I want to really go and see what it looks like there, I am curious!" ”

Lian Chenghai smiled, and with the sound of the wind, it became a whirring sound.

"You think there's a fairy bay! I can tell you, don't scare you, there is a place name called Quanshuigou on our Xinzang line, that was the name in the fifties, and now it is called Dead Man's Ditch, why is it called Dead Man's Ditch, do you know? ”

Lian Chenghai looked at Ye Chen, Ye Chen glanced at him and said, "Platoon Commander, look at what you said, I know, I know why I'm still asking you nonsense?" Really, amusing me? ”

Lian Chenghai patted Ye Chen with his hand, and then put his arm on his shoulder and said: "This dead man's ditch in the past, when we had a company, when this road was opened, we slept here all night, and in the morning of the next day, they had no characteristics of life, they looked alive, in fact, there was no sign of life activity, they were frozen to death, this is the dead man's ditch, the environment there is more than ten times worse than the border line we are patrolling now, so far, few people have slept there at night, It is to avoid a recurrence of the tragedies of the past. ”

Ye Chen looked at Lian Chenghai in disbelief: "It's really fake, is it so terrifying?" The whole company is dead, isn't that bizarre! ”

Lian Chenghai nodded and said: "It's bizarre, I also went there to take a look, the temperature difference is very large, and the name of the dead man's ditch was also changed by the local people, so the authenticity of this matter is still credible, so don't move your so-called crooked thoughts." ”

Ye Chen smiled, then looked at Lian Chenghai and said, "Platoon leader, don't stop!" Continue, there is Pangong Lake and Jieshan Daban, what kind of stories do these two places have? Tell me about it! Isn't this Pangong Lake just a lake, what's the stalk? ”

Lian Chenghai patted Ye Chen's shoulder and said: "This Pangong Lake, he has an altitude of 4,200 meters, even the temperature is usually minus six degrees Celsius, the frost-free period is only four months a year, and the oxygen content is less than 40% of the plain, and the people who can stick to it here are also masters, because they also have to drive motorboats to patrol on the water, this lake is said to be very calm on the surface, but below the water surface is a shallow, reef, if you are not careful, you will run aground, hit the reef, this is all technical work." ”

"Even so, there's nothing to be afraid of!" Ye Chen said incomprehensibly.

"You don't understand this, the water of Pangong Lake is not an ordinary person, someone once saw an eagle bathing in Pangong Lake during the day, and then swam twice, then flew out, dragging his body on the shore and crawling, it took a long time to react, this is in May and June when the temperature is the best, if you go to swim in the water at night, then you will find that you go down, you can't come up!"

Ye Chen understands this, because Pangong Lake is across China and India, so you have to often patrol in motorboats, so if you are spread out in bad weather and fall into the water, you don't have to think about coming out again.

Ye Chen looked at the platoon leader, and he didn't have to think about it to know that this mountain Daban must also be a place with a high altitude.

"Platoon leader, what this boundary mountain Daban means is that if you soak urine on that mountain, you will freeze into a column of water, and then even the second child will be frozen!"

Lian Chenghai smiled and said: "Yes, you kid reacts quickly, Jieshan Daban is five thousand two hundred meters above sea level, high altitude, these places are like this, if you have been in these four places, and have done these things, then you are this!" ”

Ye Chen looked at Lian Chenghai's thumbs up, and couldn't help but smile, this trip today was really not in vain, hearing these places made him have an urge to challenge it.

But at the moment, he can't stand the weather, and if he goes to these places, he doesn't know how long he can stand it.

"Okay, don't think about anything else, follow us on patrol this time, run out secretly, and after you go back, you just wait to be trained! That teacher Wang Nianjiao, I don't think it's easy to get along with, after you go back, you have to be repaired by her, and in the future, don't run out casually, in this case, I will be educated by the above. ”

Ye Chen nodded again and again: "I know, I know, platoon commander, I just want to experience the weather in the lower frontier, this is also so that I can have good materials in the future, I can't do it, I'll just say it to my teacher, you don't have to worry about it." ”

Lian Chenghai smiled and said: "You kid, I really don't know what you will do in the future, I can tell you that you must not secretly go to any of the four dangerous places, it is not a joke." ”

Ye Chen nodded and said, "I know, how long is our defense line, are we almost at the destination, did we patrol in the past, no matter what the wind likes?" ”

Lian Chenghai nodded, and exchanged with Ye Chen about the border patrol and the stories on the defense line.

The sky gradually darkened, Ye Chen looked at the weather getting worse and worse, and the soldiers walking in front, and he felt a different emotion in his heart.

He has never been to the frontier, let alone knows the life of the defense soldiers here, only the real material after coming, what is the real frontier, what is the real border soldier, what is the real people's soldiers.

They sacrificed too much time here for the prosperity of the motherland, and in his understanding, Lian Chenghai has been a border guard for seven or eight years, during which he only took leave to go home in a hurry, that is, he didn't even have time to go home when his daughter-in-law gave birth, and he can be said to have dedicated most of the first half of his life to this land.

The cold wind, through the skin, stimulates the bones, and the coldness is not something that can be experienced in ordinary places, even if you are wearing a cotton coat, you are still cold.
