Chapter 666: Under the Enemy's Nose
On the first day of entering the mountain, Li Mu noticed the hump about 500 meters away from the camp, and the two flat hills were attached to each other, like the back of a camel. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info On military maps, this camelback is named 395 Heights and 399 Heights.
The 395 high ground faces the mountain road, and the mountain road happens to have a ninety degree corner there. Only one heavy machine-gun emplacement is required on Heights 395 to cut off the mountain road. A straight-line distance of about three hundred meters was not a problem at all for heavy machine guns.
In other words, in an offensive and defensive battle, either side occupying the 395 heights can effectively contain the opponent's movements, which is almost equivalent to choking the opponent's neck.
In contrast, the 399 Heights, which faces the rolling hills, are of little significance.
Because the height of the two highlands is almost the same, they can play a restraining role in each other, and taking the 395 highlands is equivalent to taking the 399 highlands that are close at hand at the same time.
So, Li Mu went straight to the 395 Heights, and it took them half an hour to reach the Heights through the mountains and forests where there were no roads.
"It's a natural barrage, it's a commanding position, there's no obstacle around, and a heavy machine gun can control the road and the hills on either side. Just by glancing at it, Xu Yan couldn't help but applaud.
Only by being on high ground can you understand the situation thoroughly.
Before coming up, Li Mu thought that the 395 highland could only control the southeast road, so when he climbed the highland and looked northeast, he couldn't help but secretly gasp.
Seeing Li Mu standing on the stone on the edge of the high ground, Xu Yan strode over, and Zhao Xu and He Shifeng also followed when they saw this.
They were about to speak, and when they looked ahead, they all gasped and couldn't speak.
But seeing that the valley in which the camp was located was clearly in front of them, and that these men were all experienced officers, they could calculate the approximate distance with a slight visual inspection—the distance in a straight line was definitely not more than five hundred meters. He Shifeng was still afraid of errors, so he gave a thumbs up and measured it, which was almost accurate to about four hundred and fifty meters.
In other words, all you need is a high-precision telescope to see everything that is happening in the valley.
Of course, the camouflaged camp is largely integrated into the environment, but experienced people can still tell that it is a camp by a few details. The smoke from cooking in the cooking class alone can expose the entire camp. And daily life and training are simply impossible to be 100% hidden.
Even, if conditions permit, you only need a drone for sale on a certain treasure, a skilled operator, and a day's work can quietly shoot a lot of movements in the camp from your mouth.
Soon, Li Mu discovered the problem.
The reason why it is difficult to see 395 Heights in the camp is because of the background color. Behind 395 Heights are larger and more massive peaks in the distance, and 395 Heights are lost in its background color.
"Fortunately, it was discovered in time, otherwise when all kinds of new equipment are in place, there will be no secrets in the camp. Xu Yan pulled the corners of his mouth and said.
Li Mu nodded and said, "Search the high ground to see if there are any traces of other people's activities before us." ”
The other three quickly dispersed, and the weeds and trees on the large area of the high ground were scattered, which was easy to leave traces of activity and easy to cover the traces of activity.
At this time, the remaining two teams sent back reports one after another, and after each small area was inspected, the team leader would report to Li Mu in accordance with the regulations, report the problems found, and report the problems if they were not found, and make a record.
Li Mu looked at the road they came up on, it should be said that it was not a road, but the traces left by the woods and bushes that grew on the mountain. The vegetation in the mountains and hills is not as dense as in the tropical jungles, but the terrain of the mountains and hills is more complex, with high and low potholes, and there is vegetation cover, which is difficult to see with the naked eye.
It's okay during the day, but if it's night, even with the help of night vision devices, it's dangerous.
Secretly, Li Mu had an arrangement in his heart. Heights 395 must be manned, not only to observe the camp, but also to guard the road. Any vehicular personnel who wish to approach the camp must pass through the 90-degree corner facing Heights 395, unless they are professionals who are approaching from other directions.
As for the night, the sentry is not necessary.
However, one thing is certain, until the good news comes from the national security side, there must be someone stationed in the 395 Heights during the day to act as an observation post for the camp. In the future, if possible, a battlefield monitor can be set up here, so that any disturbance in the surrounding area cannot escape surveillance.
"Old ...... Company commander, there's a problem here!" Zhao Xu suddenly shouted softly.
He habitually prepared to call Lao Li, and finally stopped and replaced him with a company commander. No matter how good the relationship was in the past, now it is a relationship between superiors and subordinates, and it must be done according to discipline.
Li Mu hurried over when he heard this, and Xu Yan and He Shifeng also hurried over.
Zhao Xu squatted on the edge of the highland and stared at the grass on the surface, which was the northwest side of the highland, and to the north was the 399 highland, separated by a mountain col, that is, the recess before the camel doublets.
"Look at this piece of land, it looks like something hard has been scratched. Zhao Xu pointed to the grass in front of him and said.
He Shifeng glanced at it, and there was an almost knife-like cliff below, and suddenly said, "This is a cliff, look at the angle and smoothness." ”
The implication is that no one can climb up from here.
They are all smart people, and they don't need to be bothered to explain. Xu Yan also saw that the traces found by Zhao Xu were very similar to the traces caught by mountaineering.
Li Mu squatted down to take a closer look, turned over the grass, and said, "It shouldn't be long after seeing the traces, the soil is still very new." ”
Xu Yan chuckled in his heart, "Someone came up yesterday?"
"Eighty percent of the time. ”
Li Mu walked to the edge of the cliff and looked down, as He Shifeng said, this cliff is indeed very steep, the surface is very smooth, in an adjective, it is estimated that unless there is a gecko, nothing can climb up from below. The cliff is not deep, more than ten meters away, and there is a relatively gentle mountain below, Li Mu and they climbed up from there just now, but they chose to climb up in a circle around the mountain, not only the distance is farther, but the time spent is also multiple.
"The special forces can't climb up, right? Looking at the scratches, they are not deep, and there are no obvious traces of dragging, so there is no way to borrow strength. He Shifeng said with a tug of grass.
It is worthy of being a training officer, and his analysis is not unreasonable.
Li Mu looked at it carefully again and said, "There are traces of dragging, but it is very light, it must have been dealt with." And ......"
He Shifeng also wrinkled his brows and thought about it.
To borrow strength, mountaineering must be firmly grasped, just grasping the ground, it is difficult to support an adult's climbing ability. In a situation that does not conform to common sense, of course, he will not stubbornly determine the facts.
Li Mu frowned and looked around, suddenly thought of something, looked down at the trailing traces that were so faint that they could barely be seen, and then walked quickly towards the woods in the middle of the highland.
The others hurried to follow.
Soon, Li Mu pointed to a thigh-thick tree trunk and said, "Here." ”
Everyone looked at it, and sure enough, there were obvious scratches on the trunk, and the bark was scratched off, revealing the white inside, and the scratches were very deep, and there were three lines, and there was no doubt that the mountaineering claws were scratched out.
Several people glanced at each other, and they all saw the solemnity in each other's eyes.
"Our camp has always been under the nose of the enemy. (To be continued.) )
