The comrades of the rescue team still maintained the style of the battlefield, and almost trotted all the way when carrying supplies.

It took less than half an hour to complete the preparations.

After reporting the situation to the headquarters and the Gobi Desert through the radio, Brigade Liu waved his big hand: "Let's go!"

Two land beasts roared out of the capital.

Although the roads of this era were rough, there were almost no vehicles on the roads.

Pedestrians on the road heard the roar, caught a glimpse of the bright red flag on the front of the car, and gave way at a long distance.

Due to the tight time, Li Weidong also did not care about saving fuel, and he galloped nearly 400 kilometers in one morning.

When the sun was hanging in the sky, the water meter had already bottomed out.

There is a crystal clear river next to the road, and two big oxen drink water by the river.

Li Weidong honked his horn twice to drive away the two cattle on the side of the road, and slowly drove the truck to the side of the ditch.

"Team Liu, my stomach can't stand it, and the truck has to be refueled with water, so let's take a short rest."

"Take a break!" Team Liu raised his wrist and glanced at his watch.

Jumped out of the car and informed the rescue team members in the car: "Hurry up and take out the kerosene stove and cook rice."

Rescue team members jumped out of the truck with a black kerosene stove.

Someone went to fetch water, someone prepared food, someone set up a kerosene stove, everything was tense and orderly.

By the time Li Weidong and Xiao Meng brought water from the river with oil drums and filled the truck, the black iron pot sitting on the kerosene stove was already boiling and emitting white smoke.

Team Liu took the compressed biscuits handed over by the team members, pulled out a sharp dagger from his waist, cut the compressed biscuits into small pieces, and threw them into the pot.

Subsequently, close the lid.

After waiting for five minutes, when the lid was lifted, a home-cooked meal of the field army was baked.

The compressed biscuits in the iron pan had turned into a tan black paste by this time.

"It smells good, may I try it?"

Xiao Meng hadn't eaten compressed biscuits yet, so he couldn't wait to pick up the spoon and hold two spoons.

When he put it in his mouth, his face suddenly became very weird, and he opened his mouth to spit it out, but he felt that it was a waste of food, so he hurriedly swallowed it again.

suffocated his face and thick neck.

The rescue team members next to him looked at his embarrassment, and they all showed smug expressions.

Bitterness, not everyone can eat it!

However, when they saw Li Weidong take out sugar, pickled radish strips, and peanuts from under the car seat, they were all a little confused.

If you say that you have to endure hardships to carry out the task? Why doesn't this little driver play his cards according to common sense?

"Brothers, come on?" Li Weidong picked up a pickled radish strip and put it in his mouth to chew, making a crisp sound.

The members of the expedition set their sights on Liu's brigade.

At this time, Team Liu had already come to Li Weidong's side with a lunch box, picked up a peanut and stuffed it into his mouth: "Comrade Weidong, this peanut is really good, crunchy, how did you fry it?"

"I don't know, it was sent by a neighbor in our compound." Li Weidong said.

"Really? It's delicious, it seems like there's too much salt, I'll try it again." Team Liu's chopsticks are like raindrops.

….

Expedition members: "."

After eating and drinking, without too much rest, Li Weidong started the truck again.

As he left the river, he saw the two big scalpers staring at him with dissatisfaction.

"Horn~"

"Moo~"

「.」

Two days later, the convoy arrived in a small town outside the Qaidam Basin.

This is the closest town to Qaidam, and further ahead is the endless Anima Qing Mountain, behind which is Qaidam.

The town's narrow roads are lined with cramped adobe houses, and the sand and gravel that flutters in the air give it an antiquated color.

Only the bright whitewashed slogans on the walls glowed in the dim sunlight.

Under the guidance of Liu's brigade, Li Weidong parked the truck in front of an adobe house with a slightly larger façade. The walls of the house are hung with white-painted nameplates.

The comrades of the commune seemed to have received the news a long time ago, and before the truck could stop, four or five comrades in black cotton jackets rushed out of the courtyard.

"Comrade Liu, you are here, and the supplies have been prepared for you."

"Secretary Hu, there's no time to chat, hurry up!"

"I've been ready for you a long time ago, and your exploration team is really good, if something so big happens, why don't you let the people of our commune save it?"

I organized all the people and borrowed a tractor from the commune next door.

Secrecy, secrecy, is it important to human life, or is it important to keep secrets."

"Lao Hu, some things are indeed more important than human life! This is the organization's decision, don't be verbose, hurry."

The secretary of the commune shook his head and threw a bag of food into the body of the truck.

The comrades of the commune filled the oil drums with water.

During the whole process, Li Weidong didn't even have time to get out of the car and move his body.

Before the residual heat of the truck's engine had disappeared, it set off again.

Approaching Anima Qing Mountain, the weather suddenly became cold.

The cold wind was raging on the road, and even sitting in the cab, Li Weidong couldn't help but shiver.

Brigade Liu pulled out a military coat from the car body and handed it to him.

Heh, the right size.

Li Weidong squinted, buttoned the cotton coat, mixed warmly, stepped on the accelerator, and the truck drove towards the endless Anima Qing Mountain.

The roads in the mountains were all improvised by comrades who were extracting oil.

On both sides, you can see makeshift bridges and sawn trees.

Big trees are the kind that one person can't hold.

It is conceivable that they have been growing in the mountains for hundreds of years, and at this time only tree stumps remain.

Driving on this kind of temporary mountain road, Li Weidong is more cautious, and most of the time he drives slowly along the mountain pass.

In particular, there are places where the roads are so narrow that trucks can be said to be 'squeezed, passing'.

The hardships along the way are beyond words.

Fortunately, the location chosen by the comrades who opened the road is better, and the distance of the mountain road is not too far.

Three hours later, the truck emerged from its mother's body like a newborn baby.

At this time, Qaidam was still a desert with few people, and there was gravel everywhere.

The road is where the truck goes.

….

Driving through the endless wilderness, surrounded by roughly similar scenery, Li Weidong quickly lost his sense of direction.

Team Liu had already prepared, took out a compass and the hand-drawn map and spread them on the dashboard.

After more than two days of driving, Li Weidong was already mentally exhausted, but he just persevered with the belief in his heart.

What made him feel uncomfortable was that since entering the Tarim Basin, the Liu Brigade began to limit the water used by the team members, and each person could only use three catties of water per day.

For this reason, Li Weidong had to give up the habit of brushing his teeth and washing his face.

"Lao Liu, I'm about to become a barbarian, and when I return to the capital, you have to explain to my daughter-in-law."

Li Donglai took out a cigarette from his pocket, threw it to Team Liu, and then took out one himself.

Team Liu struck a match and lit a cigarette for him with both hands: "Don't worry, as long as you rescue people, I will personally ask for credit from above."

"Shhh

Li Weidong opened the window and let the cold wind pour in, and the whole person suddenly felt much more energetic.

Trucks tow puffs of dust and drive through the wilderness.

When he saw a large area of rusty barbed wire in front of him, Li Weidong knew that his destination was almost there.

vision

When he reached 5.0, he even saw the almost peeling text on the wooden stakes tied with barbed wire: "**Forbidden land, no entry".

Through the barbed wire, a number of dilapidated wooden bungalows appeared in the distance, and the roofs were covered with sand and gravel, almost crushing.

Next to the simple wooden house, there are more than a dozen military tents.

Several of the remaining exploration team members rushed over when they saw the truck.

"There is salvation, the comrades sent from above are here!"

As soon as Li Weidong stopped the car, Hu Guangliang in the car rushed down.

He hugged a member of the exploration team and asked hurriedly, "Comrade, Ye Zi Ye, she."

"Comrade Ye Zi is still alive, we can faintly hear the noise in the cave above, they must be calling for help." The bespectacled explorer bit his lip and said.

Hu Guangliang breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and sat on the ground with his buttocks, his face that had been tense finally became a little bloody.

Team Liu jumped out of the car and asked the members of the exploration team about the specific situation.

Then he turned around and walked to the driver's cab: "Comrade Weidong, in the middle of a hill that is only three kilometers away from here, there are almost no roads to pass, do you have the confidence to move us and the equipment over?"

"Yes!" Li Weidong replied loudly without the slightest hesitation.

He made a gesture to Meng Ren, who was sitting in the cab of the rear car, 'Follow my wheel's mark,' gesture.

Step on the accelerator to the end.

The road was similar to what Liu's brigade had said, rugged and narrow, with some places only enough for a truck to pass through.

On several occasions, the wheels of the truck were rubbing against the mountain.

Fortunately, Li Weidong is a man who has driven a truck 10,000 times.

The driving skills have been perfected, and there are no dangers along the way to the front of the collapsed mine.

There were many people gathered in the collapsed pit, and they were all comrades of the rescue team.

Li Weidong When he got out of the car, these people were in their hands, and the hands had already been cut out of blood.

Next to it, more than a dozen damaged steel drills and heads were discarded.

….

Seeing Li Weidong and them coming in, the comrades of the rescue team had a light in their eyes.

The Liu brigade did not waste time, and pulled one of the captains of the exploration team to the side to discuss the rescue plan.

Li Weidong took out a first-aid kit from the truck and treated the wounds of the injured team members with Hu Guangliang.

For such a comrade, he was full of respect in his heart.

The rescue team was very professional and quickly came up with a plan, and more than a dozen rescue team members began to remove the equipment from the truck.

Li Weidong and Hu Guangliang also joined the rescue team after helping to deal with the wounded.

At this time, there was no high-tech rescue equipment in later generations, and the equipment used was relatively simple, and it would take some time to completely open the collapsed hole

"Weidong, you help me take a hand, let's bring those diesel and diesel barrels together, this generator is an oil tiger, and the drilling rig is very electric, we have to be ready to refuel at any time!"

When Li Weidong heard Hu Guangliang's words, he didn't think about it, so he responded: "Okay!"

When people's lives are at stake, those who are trapped in it are people they know, but those who still have a conscience will not stand idly by.

As soon as the two came to the truck, a middle-aged man with a fat figure and some loopy legs came over.

"Comrade Xiaohu, you are the object of the leaf, right? You're here!"

Hu Guangliang turned his head after hearing the voice, looking at the smile on the fat man's face, and felt a little unhappy in his heart.

"Comrade, who are you?"

"The chef of the exploration team, everyone else calls me Lao Jia, Ye Zi and Professor Sun like to eat my cooking the most."

"Hello Master Jia, I'm still busy now, let's talk later."

"Don't get in the way, you're busy, I like to talk to you young people." Lao Jia said with a smile: "You may not know, I have the best relationship with Ye Zi on weekdays, she always does

Call me Uncle Jia, she told me a while ago that she sent you a letter, right?"

"Letter? What letter?" Hu Guangliang was a little dazed.

After Ye Zi came to Qaidam with the exploration team, at the beginning, the two corresponded frequently, almost a week.

Ye Zi asked Lao Jia, who was buying food, to send the letter to the town.

Later, Ye Zi said in a letter that the prospecting operation had made a startling discovery, and the exploration team's secrecy level had increased, and it was impossible to continue communication.

Since then, Hu Guangliang has confiscated Ye's letters.

Why did Lao Jia say that Ye Zi sent me a letter?

Seeing Hu Guangliang's stunned expression, a different color flashed in his eyes, and he coughed lightly, twice, pretending to be sad: "Harm, if only you came a few days earlier."

Hu Guangliang couldn't think about the letter, his heart sank, and asked, "What do you say?"

"When the mine collapsed, I was just about to go in and deliver food.

Professor Sun and the others have been working in the mine for a while, saying that they have made new discoveries.

Five days have passed since the mine collapsed, and I'm afraid ......."

Lao Jia didn't finish the rest of the sentence, but Li Weidong and Hu Guangliang could understand what he meant.

People are iron, rice is steel, and if you don't eat a meal, you will be hungry.

In the case of high concentration, it may be possible to forget about hunger, but as soon as it stops, the hunger pangs will come very violently.

According to Lao Jia's statement, Professor Sun and Ye Zi said that they hadn't eaten for five or six days.

There is no water source in the mine, so it's hard to say whether it can hold on.

Li Weidong gave Hu Guangliang a look, and Hu Guangliang nodded heavily.

"No matter what, if I don't go in and have a look, I won't be willing to die."

Li Weidong glanced at Hu Guangliang with appreciative eyes and said, "I support you!"

Lao Jia saw the performance of the two, and a strange color flashed in his eyes, and then he continued to say with that smiling face, "Then I'll help you!"

However, as soon as the words fell, Li Weidong said, "No need, you go and get that oil pipe, we will need that one later."

"Good!"

After Lao Jia answered, he immediately walked in the direction that Li Weidong said.

As soon as he left, Hu Guangliang looked at Li Weidong: "Weidong, is there something wrong with this person?"

Li Weidong smiled and said: "It's hard to say, I haven't started the rescue yet, I hope that my comrades can't be saved, and I still want to cholera soldiers, this person is not at ease nine times out of ten."
