Chapter 35 To the Badain Jaran Desert

After a night of driving, I didn't take the maglev train, because the mature monitoring system on the car was too strict to dodge, so I chose the old-fashioned green wagon.

Su Cheng had already started to go north in the south, and the team led by Mo Yan and Su Cheng decided to meet at Hexi Fort, and after a day of rectification, they went to Jinchang, and then took an ordinary car to Yabulai, and finally entered the Badain Jaran Desert.

The formation plan of this road is only known to Yuan Hua, Shi Ming, the mayor of Hongxing City and several important dignitaries, and this training is absolutely confidential.

The generals of the other major military districts and the mayors of the major regions did not know where the two teams that disappeared out of thin air had gone.

The bumpy old-fashioned train swayed and made some of Su Cheng's team members faint and sick, and Su Cheng sat in such a shaking car all night, and her stomach was very uncomfortable, and her sister had not had any physical discomfort since she became a silicon matrix.

At this time, Sumina was already an adult, and after being admitted to university, she retained her student status and chose to join the army, and now she is a corporal.

After Yuan Hua and General Shi Ming's discussion, the space tunnel of the Li tribe unanimously decided that it could no longer be used, so they had to endure the hardships of the bumpy and tiring journey, and the Li tribe also chose to join the army a month ago, and this time they were also ordered to set off from Huansha City and go to Hexi Fort to assemble.

There are a total of 12 people in Mo Yan's party plus General Yuan Hua, and the remaining 97 candidates will temporarily stay at the training base in Xinghai City, and they will only be able to join Mo Yan's team after passing all the subjects.

Su Cheng and General Shi Ming had a total of 18 people on this trip, and the remaining 130 people were on standby in Binhe City for training.

At 9 o'clock in the morning, 30 people successfully converged in Hexi Fort, and when they saw their brothers who had not seen each other for many days, Su Cheng hurriedly stepped forward to say hello.

"Brother, we've seen your training video yesterday along the way, and you've made great progress. After a while, we will go to the Badain Jaran Desert, and we will also experiment according to it, and I will bring you better instruments."

After Su Cheng finished speaking, he saw the team members constantly moving out some large and small packages like heads from the train, lined with white cloth and wrapped in a layer of plastic bags.

Hua Tong was puzzled and asked, "What is this, there are watermelons in the desert, even if you eat watermelons, you don't have to transport them like this, and besides, you can't eat them for a few days."

"Hahaha, brother and sister, don't you know, this is a good thing, I'll open it for you after I get to the temporary foothold of Hexi Fort in a while."

Although Hua Tong and Mo Yan did not establish a boyfriend and girlfriend relationship, but the two of them no longer care what kind of title, so that the existing relationship between the two of them feel comfortable with each other, and no one has ever had the idea of crossing the thunder pool, in the past, Hua Tong would refute it when he heard the word brother and sister, but now he is used to it.

Yuan Hua and General Shi Ming exchanged pleasantries on the side for a while, and immediately ordered the team to assemble, when they heard a voice in the distance: "I'm late!" ”。

Yuan Hua and General Shi Ming saw that all the 29 personnel in front of them had arrived, and General Shi Ming said, "All the electronic equipment that can be communicated in your hands must be handed over, if anyone who hides communication equipment in the desert will be fired immediately and will not be allowed to enlist in the army for life, if anyone passes on the information, we will clean up that person, and you will evaporate in this world."

This order was as frightening as a military order, and seeing that General Shi Ming's expression and tone were not like just talking, General Yuan Hua also looked at them with a serious expression.

Seeing the team members looking around, Yuan Hua scolded loudly: "Are you all deaf? Still not doing it yet? Waiting for us to search your body? ”。

After hearing this shout, everyone immediately handed over their tablets, mobile phones, electronic watches, power banks and other electronic products.

After the inventory was completed, Yuan Hua shouted loudly, "Okay, let's go!" ”。

Everyone got on the prepared buses in batches and drove into Hexi Fort.

Mo Yan sat in the car next to Yuan Hua and asked casually, "General, the communication facilities have been handed in, our problem has been solved, what about the sky?" ”。

General Yuan Hua looked at Mo Yan and smiled, explaining his doubts: "It's easy to avoid reconnaissance in the sky, I'll tell you about this later, although you train with peace of mind, if you're not afraid of death, no one will detect it even if you fly outside the atmosphere."

Yuan Hua's explanation dispelled Mo Yan's doubts.

It didn't take long for several buses to arrive at Hexi Fort, and they were ready to have lunch before leaving.

"This place is not as good as our place, the place is remote, and the communication facilities are not very good."

"Yes, look at these old-fashioned telephone poles, this is a thing that has been around for a few years, I saw it at my grandmother's house in the countryside when I was a few years old, and it's hard to see it now."

"I heard the old man say that if you don't adapt to the water and soil, you should eat a local tofu first, which is made with local water, and you won't have symptoms of dissatisfaction with the water and soil after eating a few meals."

"You have a point."

Mo Yan and Su Cheng heard that the team members quickly became familiar with where they were talking to each other, and immediately followed the advice of the soldier who said that they were eating tofu just now, and Mo Yan shouted to them loudly, "I will arrange a tofu for each of you today."

Su Cheng looked at General Shi Ming and General Yuan Hua and said, "The expenses are all reimbursed by the generals, you work hard, eat and drink hard."

"Good!".

"Thank you, General!".

General Shi Ming wanted to refute, but at this time, the enthusiastic voices of the team members were obviously inaudible, and they were completely crushed by the voices of the team members, so they had to acquiesce to their approach.

"Hey, Su Cheng, you should let us see what you brought at this time, right?" Hua Tong was eating, and suddenly remembered what Su Cheng said about the good things he brought over, and then asked him.

Su Cheng took a look, and after General Shi Ming got permission, he called a team member to fetch a package.

Su Cheng picked up the package and turned it upside down, and then said into the microphone, now this is three kilograms.

Mo Yan and his entourage looked curiously at Su Cheng's slowly opened package, an instrument that looked like an ophthalmic eyesight test, which seemed to be smaller than that, Su Cheng said to Mo Yan next to him, "Brother, you come forward and take a look."

Mo Yan put down the dishes and chopsticks, slowly put his head on the instrument, looked at it carefully, and said, "Well, it's a good thing, you have a very long hair on your button."

The team members who heard this laughed, and the team members on Su Cheng's side asked him with a smile, "What did you do?" Sir, be honest."

"Don't talk nonsense, show it to me."

After reading it, Su Cheng knew the reason why there was no focal length of the magnification lens, so he adjusted it and handed it to Mo Yan.

Mo Yan took another look at it and understood what this instrument was for, and he said to General Yuan Hua, "This is the latest ultra-vacuum scanning tunneling microscope, I didn't expect Binhe City to have developed such a portable instrument."

Yuan Hua looked at General Shi Ming and said with a smile: "It's still your instrument good." It took us half a day to minimize the size of a human figure, and you can now carry it in your bag, which research team is so powerful? ”。

General Shi Ming took out a business card and explained, "It's Science and Entertainment Co., Ltd., they are just the latest research and development experiment, and the team of Science and Entertainment Company is still further developing smaller instruments like this, they are deeply inspired after seeing the glasses left by Toetao, and the ultimate goal is to be able to study the kind of instrument like the huge sea and Huatong."

"Haha, it's a big company, good! At that time, each of our team members will be able to bring this simple equipment to better participate in training. After Yuan Hua finished speaking, he picked up the wine glass and jumped with General Shi Ming, and then raised the glass in his hand to the others.

After lunch, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon, and the group took the prepared bus to Jinchang to familiarize themselves with the nearby desert environment and stay there for the night.

Jinchang is obviously much better than Hexi Fort, you can't see those old antiques, the facilities are relatively complete, Yuan Hua put the collected communication equipment into the vault of Jinchang City, and the group rested here for a night after getting familiar with the environment.

When I woke up, it was the next day, I saw the big clock hanging on my head and made a chiming sound, I opened my eyes and saw that it was 5 o'clock in the morning, and I heard a lot of sounds like brooms scratching the ground outside, and after putting on my clothes, I went out of the door, and the hotel staff was cleaning the ground outside, Su Cheng was also looking out the window on the opposite floor, and Mo Yan, who couldn't understand Mongolian, asked Su Cheng, who was watching next to him, "Do you understand what they are saying?" ”。

"If you don't understand, you can ask them if they can speak Mandarin."

Hearing Su Cheng say Mandarin words, a hotel staff member explained to Mo Yan downstairs in fluent Mandarin, "We had a strong sandstorm last night, isn't it?" The sand and gravel flew into the yard, and the outside was gray, and you didn't bring dust masks, and you came out after a while the dust fell."

At this time, the alarm clock around all the team members was already ringing, and then they immediately got dressed and came out.

Yuan Hua and General Shi Ming also went downstairs to inquire about the situation, and after hearing Mo Yan's words conveyed by the hotel personnel, they ordered all the team members to pick up tools to help.

After a member of Su Cheng's team took a mask and gave it to Mo Yan, he went to help the hotel staff, and after having breakfast, the group set foot on the site to Yabulai.

When I arrived at Yabulai, I walked into the real Badain Jaran Desert, and when I saw the nearby road in the car, there was obviously more sand, and there was no more colorful than what I saw in the past, and what caught my eye was the land full of yellow sand, and when I arrived at Yabulai, I could only walk to the training base.

The personnel stepped on the yellow sand step by step with instruments and baggage, Yuan Hua took out the compass, Shi Ming took out the desert map and followed the direction of the compass, they were walking towards the middle of the hinterland of the Badain Jaran Desert.

"General, how far do we have to go, it's good to block information in this place, but with such harsh conditions, even if there is a training base there, how can we survive, the water we carry is about to run out, you see?"

After hearing Mo Yan's words, Yuan Hua pursed his already dry mouth and explained, "We found an abandoned ancient building complex in the hinterland of the desert during exploration many years ago, and that place began to transport a large number of materials after simple reinforcement and maintenance two years ago, don't believe it, even if you bring it in for 5 years, there will be no shortage of resources, and it can support 200 people to eat and drink for five years."

After leaving, Su Cheng asked General Shi Ming, "How long can we get there?" We had already drunk all the water we had brought, and we didn't expect it to come out so quickly."

Shi Ming covered the dazzling sunlight in front of him with his hand, looked at the map, and said to everyone, "Work hard, you can get there by walking half a point, everyone take a dip, and wait until you get to the training base."

Yuan Hua called General Shi Ming and said, "It's really that the El Niño phenomenon is getting more and more serious, and now the desert climate is getting hotter and hotter, I remember that if you used to walk, you could get it in an hour, but now you have to walk half a little more, tell them not to stay too long, I don't know what kind of weather will appear in a while."

General Shi Ming kept fanning his military cap, and the wind shouted in a hoarse voice from his dry throat, "All stand up, we are about to arrive, the climate is abnormal, and there may be some kind of extreme weather in the desert, let's hurry up and go."

Just as General Shi Ming finished speaking and turned his head, the sky in the west gradually darkened, and General Yuan Hua realized that the big thing was not good, and shouted, "Get down, hide behind the building, cover your mouth and nose!" ”。

It was a sandstorm, and it was too late to run in this case, and some team members could only listen to the general's words and lie down.

But Mo Yan called the team members lying in the sand pile to run to Su Cheng and told him, "Distribute the instruments, feel the sand around you, use your bioelectricity to burn the sand as much as possible, let them form glass, and see if you can block the sandstorm?" ”。

Su Cheng immediately rejected Mo Yande's proposal, and explained to Mo Yan: "My team members have not been trained, if you really form a glass cover to resist the wind and sand, the thickness is uneven, and it is easy to break, and the broken glass will become a murderous weapon under the high-speed wind and sand."

Mo Yan had his own considerations, and then said to Su Cheng, "Brother, then don't let them join, do you believe me?" You take your sister, I take Xiao Wu and Hua Tong to a few of us not far away to try it, this first-hand data is not available every day." Then pointed to Li Lili behind him, "You come to protect the safety of the general and the rest of the team."

After looking at Mo Yan's determined eyes, Su Cheng called his sister to bring the instrument, and then followed Mo Yan and ran towards the storm.

Yuan Hua and General Shi Ming were puzzled when they saw them running towards the center of the storm, and asked loudly, "Come back quickly, what are you going to do?" Dangerous! ”。

Mo Yan responded to Yuan Hua's question, "Let's go do an experiment, don't worry, we'll be fine."

The Li clan saw Su Mina running over and wanted to follow, but was stopped by Su Cheng, "Can you be very skilled in cremating sand and stone into glass?" If you can't, stay here with them, or you won't be able to help us and kill us. The Li people stopped, and immediately picked it up and covered their mouths and noses.

Su Cheng quickly brought the instrument and caught up with Mo Yan, and shouted loudly: "Brother, now that you are fighting so hard, I remember that you didn't dare to joke with your life before?" ”。

"I now know that those of us who are different from ordinary people are fighting for our lives every day, just like the experiment a while ago, I almost killed my team members, but I got first-hand data, it is useless to hide, it is better to use a small number of people to explore the way, for the future with the same ability as us can sacrifice less."

Hearing Mo Yan's words, Su Cheng shouted loudly against the wind, "Brother, you're not sure, you dare to rush up?" ”。

Mo Yan was blown by the wind, covering his mouth and nose, and said to Su Cheng, "We will do a lot of uncertain things in the future, as long as we take a step back, we will die, and only by rushing down can we have hope of living."

At this time, Mo Yan had been facing the timidity of Toetao's strength since he had snatched Hua Tong away and confronted him under the Yellow Sea, if Hua Tong hadn't woken up in time, he would probably have hung up. I was timid in the battle when searching for Bai Xiaodu, I saw my companion injured and tried to overcome my cowardice, I united my partner to defeat the puppet, and when I made the soldier severely deprived of oxygen, I wasn't sure if I could stop the powerful current of the brain-computer synthesis, but I still did it.

"There will always be hope in Chong, and if you sit still, you will die."

Hearing Mo Yan say this, Su Cheng and the others were also shocked, they didn't expect that he, who usually spared his life, would take the initiative to rush to the edge of danger.

Su Cheng looked at the brother in front of him and believed at this moment that he was the one who could hand over his back to the other party now.

Su Cheng shouted to Mo Yan against the strong wind, "Brother, I'll play with you."

Watching the huge sandstorm continue to move in his direction, Su Cheng quickly adapted to the ability of atoms to combine molecules, molecules superimposed and extruded to form physical objects, and had found out that the silicon atoms quickly synthesized into a glass wall that was more than the height of a person, and Mo Yan also formed two sides of the sky behind Su Cheng, and Hua Tong and Xiao Wu each formed one side.

"Brother, the edges don't fit," Su Cheng glanced at the interface and said loudly to Mo Yan.

After Mo Yan glanced at it, he shifted his gaze to Xiao Wu and shouted, "Xiao Wu!" ”。

The team members who shouted to avoid the wind and sand in the distance heard it really, and they all thought that something was happening, and they just wanted to look up but the wind and sand were too big to open their eyes, and the surrounding light was already very dark, and the stones slapped on the body like pins and needles.

Due to the El Niño phenomenon, the number of super dust storms in the desert has increased, and the wind can break a decades-old tree in an instant.

"Mo Yan, what should I do? The sand kept hitting the glass, and we were in the strongest sandstorm with such winds. Hua Tong said to Mo Yan with his body constantly holding on to the glass swaying in the wind.

Seeing that the light was getting dimmer and dimmer, the fluorescent substance on Mo Yan's feet began to measure.

"You don't have a lot of stamina right now, do you?" Mo Yan asked the other three people inside the glass enclosure.

The replies I got were all full of energy.

"Smack!" I heard a crack appear in the glass after a stone hit the glass, which shook in the wind.

Less than five seconds later, only the sound of glass shattering was heard, and the wind swept through the entire central region of the Badain Jaran Desert, and the wind drowned out the sound of shattering.

As the wind and sand faded away, the air was still filled with choking dust, and the team members and generals who were buried in the depths of the building slowly crawled out of the sand, took a deep breath and coughed for a while.

Yuan Hua kept dusting the sand and gravel on his clothes and hair with his hands, and then looked out of the building, a desert was submerged in his footsteps, and he quickly turned over the compass on his body, which was intact and undamaged.

Shi Ming also took out the map and kept it in his pocket, but it was a little soaked with sweat, but it did not affect the guidance.

Yuan Hua suddenly remembered Mo Yan and them, ran out of the building and looked around, there was no sign of them, and when he turned around, he immediately called the other team members, "Hurry up and find someone!" ”。

In the shouts of everyone, suddenly a place of sand quickly fell, the team members thought it was quicksand and did not dare to approach, Yuan Hua stepped forward only to hear Su Cheng shouting, "Mo Yan, your uncle!" ”。

Su Cheng scavenged the only remaining bottle of water on the side due to thirst and drank it, Mo Yan quickly formed an iron piece after hearing someone shouting and broke through the sand wall above, Mo Yan considered that after the combustion of the new glass would consume most of the oxygen before the glass was broken, he directly used the ready-made sand to make a hard sand wall above his head, Su Cheng, Hua Tong and Tang Xiaowu surrounded the surroundings according to this method, and at this time, the broken sand wall fell from the top of the head and the people and water were filled with sand.

Only Mo Yan quickly formed an iron sheet to block himself, Hua Tong and Tang Xiaowu, making Su Cheng a sand man in an instant.

The people above saw that they were still talking and laughing, and Yuan Hua's hanging heart finally let go.

With the help of Mo Yan's iron plate, the four people came up smoothly and looked at the team members, and Mo Yan was the first to say, "Personal resistance to sandstorms will be included in the training program."

Shi Ming and Yuan Hua glanced at each other and smiled knowingly.

At first, Mo Yan thought that he wanted to form the existing sand and stone synthetic glass to resist sandstorms, but in practice, it was not necessary to form a glass defense, and he could use all available resources to think of available methods to improvise, so that Mo Yan and the others provided a valuable experience for the development of armor in the future.

After packing and sorting out their belongings, the group drove to the training base, Yuan Hua looked at the old-fashioned pocket watch It was already noon, and it was about to reach the hottest time in the desert.

"Hurry up, we won't be far away from the training base, the hottest time will come soon, if it's not soon, I'm afraid someone will get heatstroke." Yuan Hua shouted loudly at them in a voice that had been dry to the point of hoarseness, and although he had used all his strength, his voice was still relatively small.

Walking step by step, the weather is getting hotter and hotter, and the distance that can be moved by heavy steps is very limited, and the team member who walks in the front row shouts hoarsely, "Look, there are buildings in front." The team member standing on a sand dune collapsed after speaking.

Yuan Hua saw the building in front of him and shouted happily, "Our base has arrived."

Hua Tong stepped forward to check the physical condition of the fallen team members, and immediately untied his clothes to dredge his breathing, Su Cheng carried the team members on his back, and Mo Yan ran to the base with a strong fan behind.

Walking under the city wall is a very high wall, with the fingerprint unlocking function of modern technology, Yuan Hua and Shi Ming wiped the dust from the doors on both sides, and then entered their fingerprints.

The door slammed violently, dust slowly fell down the cracks, and the gate gradually opened, and behind the door was a training base with an oasis.
