The other side.

Li Weidong rode his bicycle back to the rolling mill.

Before the car was tied, Niu Meng hurriedly ran over.

Her round little face, with a mixture of excitement and anxiety, looked particularly strange.

"Master, something happened, you go to the team conference room, the factory director is having a meeting there! My brother .... Ah, no, the captain told you to hurry up. ”

Hearing this, Li Weidong hurriedly locked the car and walked quickly in the direction of the conference room.

As he walked, he asked Niu Meng, "What's the situation?" ”

Niu Meng replied happily: "I don't know, I only heard that the superiors have issued an urgent task to our rolling mill and machinery factory in the capital." ”

Li Weidong frowned, there is still a matter of the machinery factory here?

Moreover, in such a hurry, something big must have happened.

Thinking like this, the pace quickens a little.

When he and Niu Meng rushed to the conference room, there were only two people in the conference room, Director Yang and Niu Yong.

Seeing Li Weidong, Director Yang was overjoyed, turned his head to Niu Meng and said, "Comrade Niu, please go outside and guard, don't let people in again." ”

"......" Niu Meng.

"Yes!"

After Niu Meng answered, he immediately turned around and walked out.

At this time, there were only three people in the office: Li Weidong, Director Yang and Niu Yong.

Director Yang gave Li Weidong a document on the table and said, "Weidong, you take a look at this first!" ”

After Li Weidong nodded, he opened the folder, and inside was a map.

However, it is not printed in lead, but drawn with a pen using blue ink.

The map appears to be a desert area, with information such as elevation marked on it, and the description of the road is just a thick winding line.

Without waiting for him to ask, he heard Director Yang say: "The situation is urgent, I won't talk nonsense, we have an exploration team in the Qaidam Basin when exploring lithium mines, accidentally encountered a cave collapse, and there are currently three important people in this team trapped in the mine."

All three of them are important talents who have registered on it, and the exploration team lacks rescue tools and manpower.

There is no direct train from the capital to the Qaidam Basin.

After deliberations, it was decided that our rolling mill and machinery factory would each send a truck to carry the rescuers to the Qaidam Basin.

Weidong, you are the best skilled in the team, and you are also steady.

So I want to give you this task, can you do it well? ”

Good guys, rescue mission!

Li Weidong immediately raised his head and replied: "Guarantee to complete the task!" ”

Director Yang nodded and said: "Without further ado, you can set off now, the rescue team is waiting at the Institute of Geology, you keep this map yourself, you must not spread it, and the situation of the mission cannot be mentioned to outsiders."

After you enter the Qaidam Basin, no matter what you see or experience, it will rot directly in your stomach, don't mention it to anyone, including me! ’

"Yes!"

After coming out of the conference room, Niu Yong patted Li Weidong on the shoulder and said, "Weidong, this mission is very difficult, and there is only success, not failure, you have to take care of yourself." ”

Li Weidong certainly understands this.

The three key people who had registered were trapped in the mine at this time, and if the rescuers and rescue equipment could not be delivered in time, it would be a big trouble.

"I understand, but if I leave, what will Niu Meng do?"

Niu Yong laughed when he heard this, squinted and said: "During the time you went to the Canton Fair, we were equipped with a new truck, and this time you drove a new car, and the truck you originally drove was good for Xiaomeng." ”

Li Weidong's eyes lit up when he heard this, the distance from the capital to the Qaidam Basin is continuous, and if he encounters a broken car on the way, it will be troublesome.

The new car, whether it is performance or comfort, is much better than the old car, and it is definitely better to have a new car than to drive the old and broken small with the previous eighteen hands.

"Brother Niu, don't say anything, I'll invite you to drink when I come back!"

Hearing this, Niu Yong punched Li Weidong in the chest and said, "You kid, pay attention to yourself, the mountain roads over there are not as good as in the city, but wake up the spirit!" ”

Li Weidong said with a smile: "Don't worry, I'm the most life-saving, no matter what time is safety first, but when I go, what will happen to Xiaomeng's exam?" ”

"Naturally, I'm waiting for you to come back, you are her master, the apprentice is assessed, how can the master be absent."

"It's okay, but Brother Niu, I have to trouble you with this matter."

"If you have something, just talk about it, what else are you talking to me."

"That's right, I'm about to leave, I'm afraid I don't have time to tell my daughter-in-law about this, can you please help me run?" I told her that I was on a mission, and asked her to go back to her parents' house these days. ”

"What did I think was that, that's all? Okay, I'll take care of it for you! ”

As the captain of the team, Niu Yong has done this kind of thing.

The members of the team often travel on business, can the families of the people be willing?

....

Hearing Niu Yong's promise, Li Weidong breathed a sigh of relief.

This matter really has to be said by Niu Yong.

After all, he went on a business trip every three or five days, and Yu Li complained to him last time, asking Li Weidong if he was targeted by the leader, otherwise why did he always arrange his mission to Beijing?

Li Weidong explained to Yu Li.

But women, when they say they believe it, they still feel a little awkward in their hearts.

Originally, Li Weidong thought about finding an opportunity to invite Niu Yong to a meal and let him explain to Yu Li.

This time, I just took this opportunity to explain the matter, presumably Yu Li will not keep talking about it in the future.

Then Niu Yong took Li Weidong to the parking lot, and really saw a brand-new Jiefang truck parked at the front.

The dark green paint of the truck is as smooth as jade, and people can't help but want to sneak a handful.

The saddle is also leather-wrapped, and the butt sits on it and feels a tight wrap.

Shake it twice, hey, it's bouncy.

No wonder the people in the convoy say that the truck is the driver's daughter-in-law, and the new truck is the driver's new daughter-in-law.

I can't help but go down.

Around the car were comrades from the maintenance class, who were doing the final inspection of the car at this time, and Han Zhizhi was among them.

Seeing Li Weidong sitting in the cab, Han Zhizhi turned the last screw three times, and then walked towards him after two turns.

"Ox team, Master Li, the truck has been inspected and is in good condition, and the fuel is also full, the truck is also equipped with auxiliary fuel tanks, and the water is also full, so you can go directly on the road!"

"Okay, I'm sorry for you!" Li Weidong said with a smile.

remembered that He Yuzhu stayed at Han Zhizhi's last night.

When I met that guy in the morning, I looked sluggish, as if I had lost my savings for decades.

Han Zhizhi is different, with a red face, and he doesn't know how energetic.

The most important thing is that this woman usually doesn't like to dress up, but now she keeps herself neatly organized.

The most obvious thing is that there is an extra hat on his head, all his hair is collected in it, and the clothes on his body are also washed with pulp, and there is a faint smell of alabaster.

The tanned skin is smeared with white flowers, and it looks a little greasy.

Han Zhizhi saw Li Weidong staring at her, and reached out and patted Li Weidong's arm: "What are you seeing?" ”

Li Weidong: "......."

Han Zhizhi squinted: "Little deflated calf, you have to come back well, I'm still waiting for you to drink my and the pillar's happy wine!" ”

Li Weidong spread his hands: "...... Sister, can we not plant a flag?"

Han Zhizhi suddenly realized: "Plant the flag? Oh, yes, you should put a small red flag in front of the front of the car, so that it looks mighty and domineering! ”

Li Weidong: "......."

Han Zhizhi thought that he had seen through Li Dong's thoughts, turned around and ran to the repair workshop, and turned out a red cloth.

The woman didn't know how to use needles and threads, but she was very skilled with pliers.

A wire was cut and the red cloth was soon hung on the rearview mirror on the right side of the front of the car.

Well, from a distance, the flaming red flag flutters in the wind.

Something like that.

******

The geological survey is not far from the rolling mill.

When Li Weidong came to the geological exploration institute, the car sent by the machinery factory had already arrived for a while.

To Li Weidong's surprise, it turned out to be his acquaintance Xiao Meng who was sent by the machinery factory.

Taking the cigarette handed over by Xiao Meng, Li Weidong squinted slightly.

It seems that the driver selected for this mission is not only skilled, but more importantly, well-born and absolutely reliable.

Li Weidong once heard that he is alone in Xiao Meng's family now, and his parents have not been able to come down from the battlefield.

....

However, the 'surprises' waiting for Li Weidong are not limited to this.

When he saw the representative sent by the exploration institute, he realized that this was not the old Hu who bought a few ore radios from him, Hu Guangliang?

At this time, Hu Guangliang looked very tired, and the stubble on his face was not as neat and clean as when Li Weidong first met him.

Even if a colleague is trapped in the pit, Hu Guangliang won't look like this, right?

After thinking about it, Li Weidong walked towards Hu Guangliang, patted him on the shoulder from the side, and said, "Old Hu, what is your situation?" ”

Hu Guangliang turned around and saw that it was Li Weidong, showed a surprised expression, and asked, "Weidong, why did you come here?" ”

Li Weidong nodded at the car parked outside and said, "Na, I drove the new car outside, let's talk about you first, why did you do this?" ”

Hu Guangliang sighed when he heard this, and said, "You don't know yet, right? Ye Zi and Professor Sun trapped in the pit. ”

When Li Weidong heard this, his heart suddenly chuckled.

This is the first reaction of a normal person after hearing that an acquaintance has encountered an accident.

No wonder Hu Guangliang looks so decadent, his girlfriend and mentor are now uncertain, it is strange that he can be happy.

Li Weidong was in no mood to laugh anymore, and asked Hu Guangliang seriously: "How long will it take for the rescue team to arrive?" ”

Hu Guangliang raised his wrist and looked at the time, and said, "If you have agreed to leave at half past seven, you should arrive immediately." ”

"Let's get in the car and wait, you come with me to the cockpit in a while, I can lie down behind the seat, and when I drive, you can sleep and have a good rest."

Hu Guangliang shook his head and said, "No need, when I think of Ye Zi and the professor, my heart goes up and down, how can I still sleep!" ’

"If you can't sleep, you can rest with your eyes, you look like you, before you get to the place, you have already collapsed first, will you be saved first, or will you save Yezi, Professor Sun?"

Hu Guangliang lowered his head dejectedly, but he did not refute Li Weidong again, obviously acquiescing to his statement.

It didn't take long for the comrades of the rescue team to arrive.

They were all dressed in black uniforms, burly and walked with a tigerish demeanor.

There is still a faint smell of blood on his body, and it seems that he has really gone to the battlefield and seen blood.

One of the comrades led by him walked straight towards Li Weidong and Xiao Meng and saluted: "You are the comrades in charge of transportation, right?" ”

Li Weidong is a fifth-level driver, Xiao Meng is a deputy fifth-level driver, and the leader is, of course, Li Weidong.

also replied with a salute: "Report, I am Li Weidong, a driver of the rolling mill, and this is Meng Ren, a driver of the machinery factory." ”

"I am Brigade Liu, who is in charge of this rescue mission. The task was urgent, and the above gave us a death order, and we must rush to the rescue scene within three days. As Team Liu spoke, his face became serious: "I'm going to ask you!" ”

"Guaranteed to complete the mission!" Li Weidong and Xiao Meng both straightened their chests and replied loudly.

....

The comrades of the rescue team carried the rescue equipment and equipment onto the truck and carried dozens of oil drums.

The oil drum was filled with water.

In Qaidam, the climate is arid and water sources are hard to find.

Li Weidong helped to place the oil drums in front of the truck, holding them together with ropes so as not to bump in the process.

The food consisted of two boxes of black, compressed biscuits wrapped in dark green packaging with the word "701" printed in white letters.

It is said that a small bite of this thing is worth a bowl of rice.

And digestion is very slow, so that people don't feel hungry for 72 hours.

Although the name is biscuit, it is not suitable for direct gnawing, and generally needs to be steamed before eating.

The reason is simple, it's too hard.

The front teeth of the predecessor father were lost by compressed cakes on the battlefield.

At that time, there were enemy planes in the air, and they did not dare to make a fire, so they could only sneakily unwrap the compressed biscuits.

I was too hungry and nervous.

When he bit down and compressed the biscuit, one of his front teeth was knocked out.

Later, this incident was also in the newspapers.

Later, when the predecessor's father went on a blind date, the predecessor's mother disliked him and lost his front teeth.

A big man, who has lost his front teeth, is like a rabbit, how ugly!

The predecessor's father slapped the long-cherished newspaper on the table, and the family affair was completed.

......

The food and water were sufficient, and just as Li Weidong was about to go to drive, the comrades of the rescue team carried two more wooden boxes.

The box was more than a meter long, and there was a rumbling inside when it was being carried.

Li Weidong vaguely smelled the smell of gunpowder.

As a driver, Li Weidong has an obligation to protect the safety of the truck.

"Comrade, what's in this? Are there any dangers? ”

The two comrades carrying the boxes were stunned for a moment, and turned their inquiring eyes to Brigade Liu.

Team Liu pressed the cigarette butt in the palm of his hand: "Now that Li Weidong is also his comrade, there is no need to hide it." ”

He opened the case and pulled out a semi-automatic rifle from inside.

The brown butt of the gun, the barrel that exudes the characteristic coldness of metal, and the barrel of the gun is folded with a bayonet that shimmers with cold light.

When he saw the bayonet, Li Weidong knew that this thing was a Type 56 semi-automatic rifle.

The Type 56 semi-automatic rifle is the first semi-automatic rifle in China.

The bayonet bayonet of the Type 56 semi-automatic rifle was designed to be non-detachable and could only be folded for recycling.

There are two benefits, one is that you can fight bayonets in melee combat, and the other is that you can increase the barrel weight to improve stability.

Type 56 semi-automatic rifle bayonet released case, reached 1260 millimeters.

When there are no bullets, it can be used as a spear.

In this era, it can be said to be the most advanced weapon in China.

Seeing that Li Weidong's eyes had been staring at the rifle, Team Liu could only explain slowly.

"There are a lot of wild wolves in the Gobi Desert, how can we do it without a little self-defense weapon?"

.... Is it to guard against wild wolves, or to guard against enemy sabotage?

Of course, Li Weidong can't care about this.

Reaching out from the box, he took out a handful: "Brigade Liu, I'm my own person now, I have to have a weapon for self-defense, right?" ”

Just kidding, this thing is a lot better than Big Black Star.

Pull the trigger and 'da... Da... Da', a shuttle of bullets swept out, and the enemy had to be turned into a sieve.

Team Liu smiled and said: "The weapon is naturally enough, but you will use it.... Hiccup..."

Before he finished speaking, he saw Li Weidong pull the bolt, deduct the safety, pull the bolt, load the bullet, and open the safety.... Coherent.

His skillful strength was similar to that of a warrior who had come down from the battlefield.

“..... Okay, that's all for you. Team Liu pursed his lips and threw two magazines to Li Weidong.

Li Weidong took it with a smile.

The Type 56 semi-automatic rifle has high accuracy and long range, and the biggest drawback is that the magazine capacity is too small.

As a semi-automatic rifle, the magazine capacity can only be filled with ten rounds, dare you think?

Xiao Meng was very envious from the sidelines, every man wanted to have a big gun.

....
