Twenty-Ninth Chapter Should Not
When Hu Song drove to the entrance of X392 checkpoint on Snow Mountain, his forehead was already slightly sweating. This is his first time driving over the speed limit, and it's in heavy snow.
But looking at the mountain road still faintly visible in front of him, Hu Song also let out a long sigh: "It's worth it!"
If they were late for a few more minutes, they would not be able to see the entrance of the mountain road clearly, and then they would really be finished. Perhaps by relying on the fixed entrance to enter the mountain, they could still rely on memory and judgment to walk on the correct road. Once the entrance to the mountain is deviated, the hidden dangers under the thick snow are unknown to anyone.
"Close call! Instructor, maintain 40 kilometers per hour and let's head into the mountains! Meanwhile, I'll try to contact X392 outpost again to see if there's any response."
It was a close call not only in terms of the road conditions on the mountain pass but also in terms of Hu Song's driving skills.
Although Hu Song's speed was not as fast as Zhao Zhong, because the heavy truck model was huge, once it skidded, it would be very difficult to control. Not only did Hu Song often encounter skidding phenomena on the way here, but also Sa Wang and Dan Dong who followed behind could no longer sing mountain songs.
Kaba had some doubts in his heart, wondering if it was a mistake made by Lian Chang to train new recruits. Such a dangerous task and he actually dared to let newcomers join in, it seems that they were still not prepared for danger.
As the distance grew farther, they could no longer contact the road construction team with just the intercom. To avoid fighting alone and to understand the situation at X392 outpost as soon as possible, Songba tried to contact X392 outpost again when Hu Song drove the car into the snowy mountain.
"Hello, X392 sentry post, X392 sentry post. This is Transport Company 7's vehicle. Can you hear me? Can you hear me? If you can hear me, please respond. If you can hear me, please respond."
"This is X392 outpost... This is X392 outpost... Are you the ones transporting the generator set? Where are you?"
Gathered around the fire pit to warm up, as the wind and snow outside grew stronger, as the sky gradually darkened, Su Yang, the instructor of the border defense team at post X392, was becoming increasingly hopeless.
In such a windy and snowy condition, it's hard to imagine how the transportation team can still manage to load the generator onto the truck. He and squad leader Chen Ke had taken turns to go outside to check no less than three times. The transportation team's vehicle has not arrived yet, so they have no choice but to prepare to initiate the emergency plan.
When the intercom on the table suddenly came a strange call, Su Yang and the soldiers beside him were all stunned. Before he could react, Chen Ke, who had just entered the room and hadn't even shaken off the snow on his body, rushed over to make a timely response.
Although the X392 outpost has many walkie-talkies, due to the shutdown of the generator set, there are very few usable batteries. They can now only keep one walkie-talkie in a usable state.
"Yes, we are Transport Team 7. We have now entered the Snow Mountain range and on board is the generator set you need. Please dispatch someone to meet us downhill immediately and make sure to mark the route clearly, especially the dangerous sections, so that we can ascend safely."
"Alright! We know, we'll send someone down the mountain to pick you up right away. You also need to drive carefully."
"Ahh!"
When they heard Kabar's urgent voice coming from the intercom, Chen Ke was not only excited, but his voice trembled slightly, and the soldiers surrounding the fire pit cheered out loud.
Although the transportation team's speed was a bit slow, since they had already successfully entered the mountain, rushing slowly would still allow them to deliver the generator set. No one dared to imagine how to hold out in the sentry post under the condition of power outage, this is not something that can be done just by willpower and determination.
"Get out of the way, let me go pick up the car! My snowmobile skills are the best!"
As the crowd began to cheer, Xiao Dong also stood up excitedly. Each border guard post is equipped with at least two snowmobiles, but due to the battery shortage, X392 post now only has one snowmobile that can still be used.
"Alright, you go start the vehicle first, I'll follow you later. Suyang, take the soldiers for a run down the mountain and do some snow clearing work at Eagle's Mouth, Mountain Fork, and Balazha. Keep going until the transportation unit's vehicles arrive, then follow them up the mountain. The transportation unit's vehicles might be slower, so dress warmly and pay attention to keeping warm."
"Alright, I know. We'll make sure to complete the task. When you come down the mountain, be careful too, the wind and snow are too strong, don't let Xiao Dong drive too fast."
Su Yang didn't think the task assigned to him by Chen Ke was too trivial. Places like Eagle's Mouth, Mountain Fork, and Eight Loops were the most dangerous sections on Snowy Mountain. Although they might not be a problem for infantrymen and small snowmobiles, if it was a transport company's trucks, without clearing the accumulated snow, they would absolutely not make it up.
As for the task of picking up the car downhill, to be honest, it's still a bit difficult for Su Yang. Although he has been stationed at X392 outpost for two years, his ability to judge direction in snowy terrain is still vastly different from Chen Ke.
Because this operation was a general mobilization, all the warriors stood up from the fire pit, sorted out their equipment, and went to inform other rooms of resting warriors to take action together.
When Chen Ke and Su Yang finished investigating the road conditions, they also carefully inquired about the situation on Kaba Road. When they came out of the house, not only had Xiao Xiangdong already started the snowmobile with a "??!" sound, but all the soldiers were already lined up outside in an orderly manner. Their red faces were filled with excitement that could hardly be concealed. At this moment, they had been impatient for some time.
After a brief speech, Chen Ke rode the snowmobile down the mountain first, while Su Yang stayed behind to assign tasks to each class. Although the snow removal work seemed simple, it was crucial to persevere, as the large amount of drifting snow could instantly cover the newly cleared ground with new snow.
"This traffic is terrible! This time the transportation has been really slow! Later when I encounter those cars, I will definitely teach them a lesson."
"Don't cause trouble for me, what do you know about the other party's situation? That's a hundred times more dangerous than our ambush in the mountain valley."
He knew that the squad leader Xiao Xiangdong was a bit careless, and Chen Ke hurriedly scolded him on the back seat of the snowmobile. However, even after hearing about Hu Song's encounter, Xiao Xiangdong still felt that these things had nothing to do with the X392 sentry post, and were all caused by their own lack of preparation.
One should not drive when ill, nor climb a mountain when sick.
