Chapter 144: Traces
The three of them entered the mountain forest and slowly began to look for traces of wolves.
Don't say that Xu Lingjun is still a little excited today.
Although there are only three of them, they can be regarded as participating in military operations!
After all, men have a bit of an adventurous spirit.
What's more, he is still robbing now, followed by an official platoon commander.
"Platoon leader, look, there are footprints here."
After Xu Lingjun entered the mountains and forests with a familiar car, it didn't take long to find the footprints of the wolves.
He hurriedly asked the platoon commander Qi Delong to come over and check.
Qi Delong hurriedly stepped forward and made a few gestures with his hands on the snow.
"This should be the mark left yesterday, let's follow the traces and look for it again."
Qi Delong stood up, patted the ice and snow on his hands and said.
If this trace had been placed outside, it would have been covered by the wind and snow.
In the mountains and forests, there is relatively less wind and snow because of the obstruction of trees.
Therefore, Qi Delong's comparison for half a day is to check the depth of the footprints.
It is used to determine the elapsed time of the wolves.
In this way, Xu Lingjun and the others followed the traces around the mountains and forests for a long time.
Looking at the fresher and fresher footprints, they became more and more careful.
Xu Lingjun suddenly raised his hand and stopped.
He looked around, found a large tree, and climbed it in three or five clicks.
Holding the trunk of the tree, Xu Lingjun squinted his eyes and looked in the southeast direction.
Sure enough, the figure of the group of wolves appeared in the distance.
Xu Lingjun waved his hand and motioned for Qi Delong to come up and take a look.
Of course, Qi Delong was not ambiguous, put the gun behind his back, and also went up the tree.
Xu Lingjun didn't dare to speak, and directly pointed to the southeast of the mountains and forests.
Qi Delong's eyes were small, because he was too far away, he couldn't see clearly.
So he took the binoculars out of his bosom and looked at them carefully.
After Qi Delong carefully observed for five or six minutes, he motioned for Xu Lingjun to go down with him.
When they came to the ground, Qi Delong took Xu Lingjun and them back.
In this way, Xu Lingjun and He Yuzhu followed Qi Delong for half an hour in a daze.
During this period, they had a lot of questions, but they didn't dare to speak out.
"You wait for me for a moment."
Qi Delong saw that the distance was almost there, and motioned for them to wait.
After that, he took out a small notebook from his bosom and began to write and draw.
Xu Lingjun was not surprised by Qi Delong's current behavior.
Since Qi Delong entered the forest, he has been recording non-stop, and I don't know what he is writing.
Qi Delong breathed a sigh of relief after finishing the record.
He checked his previous record again, and closed his eyes and thought for a moment.
A confident smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"Alright, let's go back!"
Xu Lingjun and He Yuzhu glanced at each other, and the two followed in a bit of a daze.
"Platoon Leader, now that it has been determined that the wolves are in the mountains and forests, what are we going to do next?"
He Yuzhu finally couldn't help but ask.
"Wait, wait for them to come out." Qi Delong said with a smile.
His answer made Xu Lingjun and He Yuzhu a little stunned.
This morning, he still looked anxious, for fear of delaying the task.
Why did you come to the mountains and forests to go around, but I was not in a hurry.
"This, Platoon Commander Qi, since we found the wolves, why don't we bring someone over and destroy them directly."
Xu Lingjun, a little white, has wanted to ask this question for a long time.
In his mind, since the wolves were discovered, they couldn't be wiped out directly.
This is not the time to talk about protecting animals, and if you don't destroy the wolves, let the wolves destroy them.
"Hey! Lingjun, you don't understand, this mountain forest is the world of wolves. ”
"We have too many restrictions here."
"The strength of a platoon, even with the addition of our militia, is impossible to carry out a full-scale siege of the wolves."
"It's easy to let the wolves run away."
"In this environment, there will even be a lot of casualties for us."
Without Qi Delong answering, He Yuzhu explained the question.
"Other than that, my biggest fear is that the wolves flee deep into the mountains."
"When the time comes, when we leave, the wolves will even retaliate against the village, which will be even more troublesome."
Qi Delong added a little more.
Xu Lingjun didn't know this, he just thought that so many people would rob him.
After seeing the wolves, there was a sudden burst, and it was not a hand-to-hand capture.
Qi Delong was right, what he was most worried about at that time was that the wolves ran into the mountains and forests.
If these guys really did this, he would end up fighting in the woods.
The result, of course, is what I just said, which is a bit more difficult, and there is a possibility of casualties.
If the siege is not good, let the wolves flee to the depths of the mountains and forests, and the aftermath for the seventh team will be too great.
Fortunately, he had just carefully observed the situation of the wolves.
And according to the wolf pack activity map he drawn, this wolf pack can't wait anymore, and it should come out in a few days.
After all, they are beasts, and in the face of hunger, they will still act according to instinct.
Besides, this wolf doesn't know that the current Seven Team has their soldiers.
Now that the platoon commander Qi Delong has an idea, Xu Lingjun is not good at what they are saying.
In the middle of the afternoon, they went out of the forest.
Find the little warriors waiting for them, mount their horses and return to the seventh team.
As for the three squads that searched the wolves outside, Qi Delong did not directly recall them during the insurance period.
Who knows if there will be other wolves in this area besides this pack of wolves.
When it was almost dark, the fighters returned to the seventh team one after another.
They were greeted by a warm room and a fragrant meal.
Frozen tofu vermicelli Chinese cabbage, and then pour a large stream of vinegar, this kind of stewed vegetables eat thief fragrance.
Erhe noodles with large steamed buns, plus two large buckets of egg drop soup.
These home-cooked meals don't need Xu Lingjun's hands, Niu Fengying and Qin Daru can do it.
During the meal, Wang Fuxing called Xu Lingjun, who had already returned, over.
How to say that he also saw today's military operations today.
Helping to find the traces of the wolves can be regarded as a credit.
Although there is no big reward, this big pot of rice must have his share.
Don't underestimate this meal, how can ordinary people eat this.
Xu Lingjun remembered what his fathers used to say when they greeted him, that is, "Have you eaten?" ”
It was only after coming to this era that he understood why he came back like this.
Even now, there are still people who often thank you by "please eat" before or after doing things.
Maybe today's young people feel that it's nothing to eat.
He even felt that if someone invited him to dinner, he could go and count it as a noodle.
But in fact, "please eat" is considered a very high treatment in Xu Lingjun's current era.
Don't say that this big pot of rice tastes fragrant.
Xu Lingjun followed the soldiers and unconsciously ate too much.
After eating, Platoon Commander Qi Delong gathered the soldiers together and learned about the situation in each squad.
At the same time, new deployment work was carried out.
This time, Xu Lingke was not qualified to participate in this, and he went back to his gentle township after eating.
