As if he was already prepared for Hu Xiaodong's surprise, Huabiao's expression did not change at all when he heard this. He continued with his solemn face: "I don't need to explain the reason. Xiao Tang explained it very clearly just now. No matter whether it is the resident or Lao Xu, It’s destined that we have to go back.”
"You're right Hua Zi, I understand the truth, but the problem is that the road conditions don't allow it. Look at the snow..." While talking, Hu Xiaodong deliberately raised his right foot without any effort, and then found a spot that was not covered with snow. The "reclamation" section was chopped down, and after it collapsed to the lowest level, he continued: "Look, we are here now. If we go down any further, the exhaust outlet of our car will have to be blocked. By then, let alone moving forward, the entire The car will be destroyed. Even if the snow stops, we won’t be able to send the supplies back!"
Yes! As Hu Xiaodong said, no one among them could predict the development of the snow.
But one thing Hu Xiaodong is sure of is that waiting is obviously more reliable than taking the risk of driving and destroying the car.
Nodding, Hua Biao confirmed Hu Xiaodong's analysis, but then he said: "Xiaodong, the car can't move forward, but people can!"
"What you mean is..."
"Humph! My idea is that you stay here first, and I will take some supplies and go on the road. After that, you can wait until the weather improves before you set off, so that there is no delay for both of us."
good idea! It must be admitted that Huabiao's method is indeed a good way to kill two birds with one stone.
First, ensure that the vehicle is not abandoned.
Secondly, there was an explanation at the other end of the station.
But although the method is a good one, there are still many problems involved.
"Hua Zi, it's still dozens of kilometers away from the station. Even if you drive normally, it will take 2 or 3 hours. I'm afraid you can walk there..."
"Yes, Xiaohua, I know your background in the army, but look at the heavy snow and the road conditions. You are on the road alone, aren't you kidding me?"
Wei Dazhuang and Hu Xiaodong both raised objections. Hua Biao shook his head indifferently: "You underestimate me too much. This climate may be bad for you, but for us scouts, haha."
He chuckled quite proudly. At this moment, Huabiao had the domineering power of "being at the top of the mountain and seeing all the small mountains at a glance".
But he does have something to be proud of. In order to equip soldiers with the ability to fight in various climates and terrains, the Sharp Knife Company has specialized training subjects to deal with severe weather conditions such as ice and snow.
Huabiao once lived alone on Mount Everest for a week.
The difficulties there are far beyond what the current weather can match, which is why he is so confident.
What Wei Dazhuang said made Hu Xiaodong speechless.
In addition, nowadays we really need people to go back and contact the residents.
After weighing it up, Hu Xiaodong still felt uneasy and asked: "Are you sure?"
Hearing this, Huabiao smiled as usual: "Of course, I have no intention of making fun of my own life."
Speaking of which, there was no better choice. Hu Xiaodong finally made up his mind and accepted Huabiao's suggestion: "That's OK! Xiaohua, I'll leave it to you to go to the station. We'll prepare your luggage right now."
That’s all. Hu Xiaodong was about to do it, but he didn't expect that Tang Xiaoquan stopped everyone with words.
"Wait a moment!!"
"Yeah?" Hu Xiaodong turned around and said, "Why, Xiao Tang, do you have anything else to say?"
"Yes!" Tang Xiaoquan nodded.
"Then tell me, what's going on?" Hu Xiaodong looked forward to it with joy. The young man's past "results" made Hu Xiaodong feel a little hopeful. He felt that the other party probably thought of something because of Huabiao's suggestion.
It's a pity that the magic method that Hu Xiaodong expected did not appear. Tang Xiaoquan's next words almost made him angry.
"Hua Zi, you definitely can't go on the road alone. I'll go back with you."
"Hey! Quanzi! Are you kidding me? This is not a snowy road trip. Are you coming with me? You won't be able to make it down!"
You're welcome! Hua Biao poured cold water on Tang Xiaoquan bluntly.
"Yes, Quan Zi. Ren Xiaohua is experienced on the road. What's the point of following you? If something goes wrong if you turn around and walk halfway, you won't be a drag!" Wei Dazhuang also agreed.
Can face Wei. When Hua and the two attacked, Tang Xiaoquan not only showed no intention of retreating, but instead smiled lightly.
"That's right! In terms of physical strength, perseverance, and experience, I am definitely not as good as Hua Zi. But don't forget, everyone. What is the fundamental purpose of not returning to the station? To send supplies and buy equipment, right? In this case, is the amount of supplies the two of them carry? Better than one person? I need to explain to the two brothers "China" and "China" when it comes to equipment, right?"
"Humph, Quanzi, if you have any ideas about equipment or anything, you can tell me now and I will pass it on to you. If you are worried, you can just write a note. Also, to put it harshly, you can tell me All the first prerequisites are to walk to the station, depending on your physical condition... To be honest, I am not optimistic about it!"
Still not saving face, Huabiao's response was even more explicit.
But is Tang Xiaoquan someone who compromises easily?
After all, Tang Xiaoquan's insistence was helpless. He wanted to communicate with the brothers "China" and "Country" about the situation at any time, but it was not fundamental.
As Hua Biao said, he could entrust him with the relevant matters and let him convey the information.
So what exactly is Tang Xiaoquan thinking?
The answer is simple, don’t worry!
What are you worried about? Hua Biao!
Although Huabiao nominally said that he was bringing supplies back to the base, Tang Xiaoquan knew that the other party had the same personal intentions as him.
Tang Xiaoquan did it because of Wei Yang, and Huabiao did it because of Lao Xu and Lei Tong.
There is no doubt that based on the relationship between Huabiao and the above two people, he will definitely try his best to rescue the other party from the predicament.
At this moment, if Huabiao was allowed to go back alone, he would certainly be capable of the task, but he would not be in good enough condition to do anything impulsive.
This is what Tang Xiaoquan wants to avoid. Firstly, he wants to prevent Huabiao from returning to the station and taking advantage of Lao Zhao and others to use troops without knowing the situation.
Secondly, it also prevents Huabiao from doing stupid things when encountering dangers on the way, causing the supplies to be unable to be delivered to the station in time.
However, once what he worries about happens, Wei Yang's safety will inevitably be implicated, which is something Tang Xiaoquan absolutely does not want to see happen.
That's why he insisted on going with Hua Biao.
It's just that Tang Xiaoquan also knows that if he wants to go with him, he must convince the brother in front of him, and he is not as good as the other brothers in terms of physical fitness or other aspects.
So even if they go together, Tang Xiaoquan is still inferior.
Fortunately, he was quick-thinking, and after a brief consideration, he replied decisively: "My physical strength is not good, and it is true that walking will delay me. But isn't our task just to deliver the supplies? In this case, safety is guarded, and walking fast is not a good idea." It doesn't make much sense. According to the current reserves of the station, it won't be a big problem to last for a while. So during the trip, I suggest not to force it, nor to rush too much. Stop and go, and rest when you are tired. If it doesn't work, just leave. We can always arrive in three days. In addition, if the snow stops, Brother Hu, you will wait for the snow to melt and then slowly hit the road. It is not a problem to coordinate the two phases to eat and drink at the station. As for Lao Xu’s rescue, I feel more at ease when I go back and explain it myself. Comprehensive That’s why I proposed to return to the base with Hua Zi.” (To be continued.)
