For a true mountain guide, intuition and experience are more important than knowledge. [] Not only did Xu De demand this of himself, but his father had also said the same thing.
Songba's home is at the foot of the famous Meili Snow Mountain. Although it is a small village, his father makes a living as a guide like many other plateau men. In the past, he led horse teams to cross the snow mountain, and now he specializes in leading mountaineers to climb the snow mountain.
Meili Snow Mountain is famous for its complex snow conditions. Even his father, who has climbed the mountain many times, still relies on intuition and experience to make judgments about climbing.
"Songba, don't underestimate intuition and experience. The sons of the plateau are born under the snow-capped mountains to pay homage to its majesty and blessings."
The snowflakes floating outside the car window seemed to bring up the figure of his father, and thinking about going to x392 outpost later, Songba didn't dare to be careless at all.
Just as Xu De said, the blizzard really came this way to x392 sentry post. Although it is not necessary to compete with the blizzard for speed in other places, on the plateau, even if you only gain one minute and one second, it is enough to decide your own life and death.
"Songba, contact X392 outpost again."
Zhao Zhong wasn't particularly worried about the snowflakes getting bigger and bigger outside the car window. As a guide for the transportation team, he had already made multiple trips to and from x392 outpost and was half a guide himself. If it weren't for this special mission, he wouldn't have personally led the vehicle into battle.
The sentry post was located above the snow line, but because there was a road connecting it, the actual road conditions were not complicated. Perhaps the blizzard would pose some obstacles, but based on his own experience, he should be fine, which was also the main reason he felt at ease bringing Songba along.
"Hello! X392 sentry post, this is Transport Unit 26, do you copy? This is Transport Unit 26, do you copy?"
Although Song Ba's call sign was not quite standard, Hu Song didn't want to correct him anymore. Now he was more worried about the safety of Xu De, Zhao Zhong and the x392 sentry post. Based on his own experience, the vehicle should have already entered the communication zone of the x392 sentry post, but they had not responded yet, there was only one possibility, that their power system had broken down again, just like him, could only contact through walkie-talkies.
"Reported to the instructor, still unable to contact x392 sentry post."
Although Hu Song couldn't have failed to hear his own name being called, Song Ba still gave him a standard and proper report.
"Really?"
Facing this situation, Hu Song furrowed his brow and didn't say anything more. A worried expression appeared on his serious face, knowing that he had no other way out except to work hard.
Thinking back to the cargo on the vehicle, it seems that I don't have to worry too much, the only way is to hurry up and arrive at x392 checkpoint as soon as possible.
As Hu Song stepped on the accelerator, Song Ba also opened a slit in the window and took off his gloves to stretch out his right hand bare.
A gust of cold wind blew in, and Hu Song turned his face to ask Song Ba: "What's the situation?"
"Coach, things seem a bit off, better if you can speed up a bit."
Directly measuring the temperature and humidity of the air with his hands to determine the intensity and speed of the blizzard, only extremely experienced guides can do this. Songba has mastered this method for a short time, but for the current severe situation, he can only try it out.
However, the feeling in his hands didn't make him optimistic at all. Although the snow wasn't heavy yet, the temperature had already dropped below zero, and the humidity was also worrying.
"Let me try, you first put your hands in, be careful not to freeze them."
Although the Gobi Desert appears to be flat, the old asphalt road has long been frozen and bumpy. Although heavy trucks can drive on it without a problem, the goods inside may not be able to withstand such bumps.
Safety first, stability is the key! The speed of a car isn't just about how fast it can go, but also depends on the driver's experience and driving methods on different road surfaces.
The ruggedness is almost a common feature of the plateau road, whether it's a newly paved asphalt road or a cement road. The drastic temperature difference makes them barely last for a month, and soon they become unusable. This is not that Hu Song doesn't want to speed up, even though time is already tight now, he still has to prioritize the safety of people, vehicles, and goods.
"What's that?"
While Hu Song was carefully making his way on the ground nearby, Song Ba suddenly let out a surprised cry.
Upon hearing Song Ba's exclamation, Hu Song also looked up and saw a group of small black dots slowly moving forward at the far end of the road.
"Is it Road Engineering Team?"
Hu Song's voice revealed a tone of surprise for the first time, he had just felt that the road seemed to have been repaired not long ago, if there was indeed a road engineering team ahead, then there must be large-scale communication equipment available.
Thinking that good luck might be coming, Song Ba's face also showed an excited expression, and he immediately pulled his frozen right hand back from the car window, recovering a bit of warmth.
Just like the highland roads that require constant maintenance, road construction teams are also constantly on the move along the highland roads. Like transportation convoys that transport in units of vehicle fleets, road construction teams have even more vehicles and people, and can stop wherever they go, just like a mobile village.
There are no roads that cannot be repaired by the road maintenance team, and there is no blizzard that the road maintenance team cannot withstand. This is not the road maintenance team's own boast, but a universal recognition of all plateau people.
"It's true, it's really a road engineering team! We're saved this time."
As the car gradually approached the black dot moving forward, when he saw the familiar flag of the road construction team, Hu Song's heart was also filled with excitement, and he didn't even bother to scold Song Ba for his weakness.
"Hey, look, the big shot from the transportation team is here again to ruin our hard work."
As the sound of cars rumbling from behind was heard, some people in the long queue of road engineering team turned their heads back. Seeing Hu Song's vehicle approaching, they immediately laughed and started waving their hands.
If the transportation team is the lifeline of the plateau sentry post, then the road engineering team is the breadwinner of the transportation team. If the roads they have worked hard to repair are destroyed in bad weather before the transportation team can use them, this is the most heart-wrenching thing for the road engineering team.
A punch is painful, a scolding is love! The Road Engineering Team loves to see the heavy trucks of the Transportation Regiment trample on their hard work, although it's unbelievable, but also the most genuine side of the plateau people.
