Get up! ”

The squad leader, Niu Shilin, groped his way to a tent in the dark, stretched out his hand and shook Diao Ke inside.

"Squad Leader......"

Diao Ke stretched and yawned.

"So early?"

He looked out of the tent, the air was full of moisture, and it was still dark, and he couldn't see anything.

He got up and wiped his face.

It's oily, slimy, I haven't taken a shower for a few days, and even the crotch of my pants smells like salted fish.

"Hurry up, stop being verbose! I estimate that the 1st Battalion will be coming over soon. ”

Niu Shilin didn't pay attention to Diao Ke anymore, and went directly to wake up the people in the next tent.

Diao Ke sat helplessly on the edge of the tent, picked up his boots, and removed the socks from them, a strong smell penetrating his nostrils.

Two days of high-intensity reconnaissance almost broke everyone's legs.

In order to complete the positioning of the remaining 30 reconnaissance targets, the last target was found at two o'clock in the morning last night.

He looked at his watch, and it was only half past four.

Damn.

Tong Gong only slept for about two hours.

The foot hit the ground, and there was a tingling pain.

Diao Ke grinned and lifted the foot plate, and there was a large blister on the right side of the heel.

"!"

He couldn't help but frown and curse.

But this kind of thing is already common, and there is nothing to make a fuss about.

Diao Ke came to serve as a soldier in his second year of college, and he belongs to that kind of idealist, who joined the army to experience the feeling of wearing a green military uniform, and to shoot guns without breaking the law.

When I came to the reconnaissance camp, I also suffered a lot of crimes.

Diao Ke originally planned to be a soldier for two years, even if he fulfilled his dream, patted his ass and followed the big guy to retire from the army and pull him down.

But now, his thinking has changed a little.

Since he learned from the correspondent Xiao Wang that Zhuang Zhuang had made some trouble with the instructor Zhao Huanbin in order to let him participate in the delta wing training camp, he always felt that he couldn't stand Zhuang Yan, he wanted to make the results, he wanted Zhuang Zhuang to feel that he had not seen the wrong person, and also made the instructor Zhao Huanbin feel that he had seen the wrong person.

Now Diao Ke has begun to think about the military school.

Diao Ke must be the backbone of the company to have a chance to go to the military academy, and Diao Ke must strive to be able to use his achievements to persuade the deputy company commander to become a deputy squad leader after the veterans are discharged from the army this year.

He expertly took the needle out of the pouch, on which a short thread was already threaded.

Puncture the blister so that the thread runs through it, so that the blister does not fill with water again, and when you walk, the machine inside will also flow out of the thread.

This is an emergency treatment method, and the time is in the process of hygiene.

Lin Sheng put on a stinky camouflage uniform and ran to Niu Shilin's side: "Squad leader, the 1st Battalion is about to land on the island, what should we do?" ”

"What to do?" Niu Shilin sighed, walked to the distillation pit, and lifted the rain cloth.

Less than one-third of the water is in the bamboo tube used to hold the water.

It's full on weekdays.

It was only two hours of water last night, estimated to be less than 200 ml.

"Cold salad!"

He was a little desperate.

And he asked, "How much water do we have!?" ”

Lin Sheng turned around and asked the soldiers of the first class: "How much water do you still have, report it." ”

"Half ......"

"I'm only a third."

"I probably ...... About a quarter of ......."

"Damn, Zeng Shuhang, I told you to drink less water, why don't you listen!"

"Deputy squad, when I rushed to the No. 34 target point last night, I felt too thirsty, and I opened the lid to drink saliva, but I slipped and spilled some ......."

Lin Sheng remembered that Zeng Shuhang really fell last night, because he walked on the mountain road at night, so everyone used small backpacks to pass through each other's belts to fix them, so as not to fall into the deep ditch next to them, and the big guys were scared into a cold sweat at that time.

"I used to have the most water, so I sprinkled it, and the water became the least." Zeng Shuhang was a little aggrieved.

Lin Sheng waved his hand: "Come on, I won't talk about you?" ”

Niu Shilin said: "Now the five pits have collected less than 1,000 milliliters of water in more than two hours...... In the past two days, I have to avoid the encirclement and suppression of the 1st battalion, and I am afraid it will be difficult to survive......"

Lin Sheng said: "Squad leader, do you remember the bamboo forest yesterday?" ”

Niu Shilin said: "Remember. ”

Because the containers used to collect fresh water in Class 1 were cut in that wild bamboo forest, everyone remembers that there is such a bamboo forest in a valley in the southwest of the island.

"Otherwise, we will rush over immediately, there is water in the bamboo forest, and we can collect some food along the way."

For survival in the wild, bamboo forests are a good place.

Generally speaking, when you enter the bamboo forest, you must not miss the opportunity to get water.

Hit the bamboo with a mountain opener, if the sound is muffled, usually there will be water in this section of bamboo, poke a hole with a dagger, and you can suck the water inside with your mouth.

Even if there is no water in it, the pillars can be cut into knots and roasted on the fire, and during the baking process, water will come out of the cut in the bamboo.

This water is absolutely clean, and even the bamboo juice that has been baked has the effect of clearing heat and detoxifying, diuretic and dampness, anti-cold, and treating sore throat.

In addition, there are usually fresh bamboo shoots in the bamboo forest, which are also plants that can fill the stomach, and it is very good to use them to satisfy hunger.

Niu Shilin hesitated: "The bamboo forest is in the southwest direction, almost on the other side of the island...... Can you catch up now? ”

"If you can't catch it, you have to catch it." Lin Sheng said: "According to the rules, we have to hide for a day, and we can retreat from tomorrow, what should we do?" Find a place to hide in the jungle for a day, and you can't do it without eating or drinking! ”

"Okay, without further ado, let's go!" Niu Shilin waved his hand: "Hurry up, let's go in five minutes." We are still 5 kilometers away from the bamboo forest, and we still have to go over the mountain, so if we don't go early, I'm afraid that the 1st battalion will go to the island. ”

……

7:40 a.m.

Coastal Phong Company Barracks Area.

Zhuang Zhuang woke up early this morning, ran a few times to the nearby beach, and then returned to the camp to take a shower.

The well water here is not only bitter, but also has excessive minerals, although it is not suitable for drinking, but it is no problem to take a bath.

After taking a shower, he moved a small horse and sat at the stone table under the tree in the yard, spread out the map and the Beidou No. 2 GPS locator, and began to deduce.

"Deputy Company Commander."

Han Xiaobei came out of the barracks and sat down beside him.

"Are the teams ready?" Solemnly asked.

"The last contact was at six o'clock." Han Xiaobei said: "They all know the situation they are facing, I have confirmed with them, and in order to ensure fairness, I cut off communication with them, lest Battalion Commander Zheng of our 1st Regiment see that our radio station is still on, and those who don't know think that we are providing them with information." ”

He glanced at the map and locator on the table, and said, "What, deputy company commander, what are you studying?" ”

"No, I just want to see how Camp Commander Zheng executes the cleanup this time." Zheng Zheng said: "It is also a pleasure to study infantry tactics. ”

"Hey, what other tactics? They are all amphibious combat vehicles, light armor, high mobility, this island is only 56 square kilometers wide, the coastline is less than 50 kilometers, divided into a company to control the coastline, and then two companies in the platoon to search, with armored vehicles for fire cover, our soldiers suffer, only light weapons ......"

"What's so lively about talking?"

At this time, the other two platoon commanders and instructor Zhao Huanbin all came over.

"No, talk to the deputy company commander about how Battalion Commander Zheng of the 1st Battalion will command his troops to wipe out our people, I just said that by using the mobility of amphibious armored vehicles, you can completely control the coastline by sending a company of troops, and then you can search the island however you want, anyway, they have the advantage in firepower."

"I'll see." Zhao Huanbin picked up the map, checked the terrain, and said: "If I am, I will also send people to control the water source and key food production areas......"

Everyone is talking about replacing themselves in the role of Zheng Shengli, if it is themselves, how to set up the formation.

While they were chatting enthusiastically, the roar of an engine suddenly sounded outside the camp gate of the Haiphong Company.

However, after a while, several amphibious armored infantry vehicles drove through the doorway.

One of the cars has five antennas on the roof, and at a glance it is a command vehicle.

The convoy stopped in the camp, the door opened, and Zheng Shengli appeared in everyone's sight.

"Yo! What a complete set of people! ”

Seeing that Zhuang Yan and Zhao Huanbin were there, Zheng Shengli walked over with a smile on his face.

His rank was higher than that of Yan Yan and the others, and Yan Yan saluted him first.

After returning the salute, Zheng Shengli walked to the stone table with a big grin and saw the map at a glance.

"Deputy Company Commander Zhuang, shouldn't you study what kind of tactics I will use, and then tell your soldiers how to deal with it?"

With a solemn smile, he also sat down and said, "Battalion Commander Zheng, you also look down on the people of our reconnaissance battalion too much. Since I have the intention to invite you to train together, I just want to train my own troops, and now that we have turned off the command platform and system, and cut off contact with our own troops, how they will deal with you is completely their own ideas, and I will not participate. If they are so easily caught by you, killed by you, or completely eliminated by you, then I can only accept defeat. However, I don't think it's so easy for Camp Commander Zheng to wipe out all my people. ”

"Hahahaha!" Zheng Shengli laughed heartily: "If it is your deputy company commander Zhuang who leads the team to carry out a counter-cleanup with me, I really believe that you can escape from the squad, but ......"

He looked around and saw that the entire reconnaissance battalion 1st company, company headquarters and platoon-level cadres were here.

Before solemnly inviting him to train together and engage in small confrontations, Zheng Shengli still didn't believe that Zhuang Zhuang really let his soldiers follow the squad leader to fight against him.

He is even somewhat contradictory.

Solemnly participated, he felt that it was difficult to deal with.

Yan Yan didn't participate, and he felt as if Yan Yan had underestimated himself.

Now it seems that this guy has really concentrated all the cadres in the camp of the coastal defense company, which means that among the scouts currently lurking on the island outside, the highest rank is only a non-commissioned officer.

Non-commissioned officer?

Fight with non-commissioned officers and a squad of officers from one of your own battalions?

This solemn ......

It's so contemptuous!

In this case, he felt that he must set up camp here, and in the past two days, let him see in front of him how he commanded his troops to eat his soldiers one class at a time!

"Okay, I see Deputy Company Commander Zhuang, you have gathered all the cadres here...... Instructor Zhao, as well as several of your platoon commanders, are all ...... It's good, it's good. ”

He turned around and said to the deputy battalion commander Zeng Zhiduo: "Let the troops deploy immediately, and each company will carry out the tasks assigned to it, remember, no one can be missed." ”

……

Southwest of Shiratori Island.

On the hillside near the bamboo forest.

Lin Sheng pushed away a piece of thatch in front of him, which was taller than a person, the sun was on his body, vicious, and there were a few blood marks on the exposed skin on his wrist, which was cut by the grass.

Walking in this kind of grass is even more uncomfortable than walking in a light curtain, and you should always be careful of those sharp thatch leaves.

Fortunately, his face was covered with a field silk scarf, otherwise he would have been cut into a big flower face a long time ago.

Thirsty......

He lowered his head, found a relatively thick thatch root, cut it with the mountain knife in his hand, and then cut out a section of the root that was relatively tender, put it in his mouth and sucked it a few times, and a little faint, a little grassy sticky juice flowed into his mouth.

I licked my tongue, and with a little bit of liquid lubrication, at least it was much better than before.

"Hold on, everybody hold on." Niu Shilin noticed that the team had stopped, so he walked to the front, he knew that the team was very thirsty now.

Hunger is still a trivial matter, and in this kind of ghost weather, thirst is the most fatal.

"Deputy squad, keep walking."

He cheered Lin Sheng up.

"There are still a few hundred meters ahead."

"Really?" Lin Sheng was a little skeptical, but now, he felt that he was not without strength, but that he couldn't say uncomfortable in his body.

"It's true, I just looked at the map." Niu Shilin said: "When I turned over the small slope in front, I saw the bamboo forest in the valley below. ”

When Lin Sheng heard this, he suddenly became energetic.

There is no water in the kettle anymore.

It's past eight o'clock now, and the sun is up.

The temperature began to rise gradually.

Just now on the road, a class of people saw dew on the leaves, and they carefully stuck out their tongues to lick it.

In this kind of wilderness, even a little water in the kettle should be cherished.

If you can save it, you can save it.

Only when you find a water source can you drink the water in the kettle with confidence depending on the situation, otherwise you should never drink the fresh water in your kettle on impulse without being sure that you have found a supplementary water source, unless you really can't stand it anymore, or you will have problems if you don't drink it.

Lin Sheng puffed up, parted the thatch and ran onto the hill bag in front.

Sure enough, a large bamboo forest appeared in front of him.

That's right!

Familiar valley! The sea is just around the corner on the right!

This is where the first night of camping is located.

It's the best place to survive.

"Look at ......"

He turned his head excitedly, and pointed his hand in the direction of the bamboo forest, wanting to tell his comrades behind him that the bamboo forest was in front of him, and the water problem could be solved soon.

Phew-

Before Lin Sheng's word "look" could be shouted, a crisp gunshot immediately came from a distance.

This was followed by a series of gunshots in ping-pong.
