In the wasteland in February, almost nothing edible can be found.
All kinds of small animals are still in hibernation.
The few things that can still be managed to enter are the grass roots with only a little bit of grass stubble left on the ground.
Others, even mice are hard to see.
Yang Hongwei chewed the grass roots in his mouth hard again and again, and then swallowed the rough grass roots with difficulty.
He didn't carry emergency food with him. Although the taste and nutritional content of those items were excellent, the quantity was too small.
He would save them for the most urgent time.
The most urgent thing now is how to complete his first task.
Mark target points and draw terrain.
Yang Hongwei originally thought that this task should be relatively simple, but he found out after he reached the target point.
I really underestimated the limits of the coaches.
No.
They basically have no lower limit!
There is now at least one company stationed at the target point.
They didn't know when they arrived, and they even completed the construction of simple defenses at the target point.
This was Li Qinglong's idea after he discovered that it was difficult for the mechanized infantry regiment to catch the astronauts running wildly on the grassland.
He informed the mechanized infantry group of the astronauts' next mission target point.
Let the mechanized infantry regiment guard the astronauts' only path.
"Do you think the people on the other side are really as mysterious as they say?"
Among the fortifications, a young man curiously asked the old squad leader next to him.
This is the first time for the young man to join the army this year, and he is still very interested in the exercises.
I am very curious about everything on the grassland.
Ni Dayong was not as relaxed as the young man. This exercise gave him a strange feeling.
Whether it was the scattered search at the beginning or the current defensive operation, it was very strange.
According to Ni Dayong's own experience, generally speaking, the outcome of the exercise has already been determined before the exercise.
Even what to do every step of the way has been planned by the director.
Everyone only needs to act according to the script issued by the director in advance.
But this exercise was different from any exercise he had participated in before.
It’s not just that the director didn’t give out the outcome in advance, there wasn’t even a clear script.
The most exaggerated thing is that they don’t even know what kind of enemy they need to face!
The only information that can be confirmed now is that the other party is a group of paratroopers. They do not have heavy firepower, but they are suspected of carrying rocket launchers.
Their company had just learned of this news. Not long ago, a class of people was killed by the other party alone.
Even the armored vehicles were beaten to the point of withdrawing from the exercise!
Therefore, Ni Dayong's mentality is more complicated. He wants to see what kind of opponent he is facing, but he also feels that he may not be able to beat the opponent.
"Since the company commander and the others said it themselves, it should be true."
Ni Dayong is still very familiar with the character of his company commander, and he will not make mistakes in such matters.
The two people then discussed what kind of equipment the opponents they were going to face might have.
At this time, Yang Hongwei had also circled around their simple position.
As an elite field force, the positions were built to perfection.
Even though they only had a little time, the configuration of various firepower points was still perfect.
No matter from which angle Yang Hongwei launches the attack, there is always the risk of being cross-fired by other firepower points.
Especially those half-covered infantry and armored vehicles, the 7.62mm machine guns on them are not just decorations.
Moreover, the personnel and weapons and equipment on the opposite side were far beyond the limits of what he could handle.
At most, he can confront a squad of troops head-on, but now there is an entire company on the opposite side, with more than a hundred people.
If you can't directly confront the hard steel, you can only use outsmart methods.
The sky is getting darker now, and it will be dark soon.
At night on the grassland, the temperature can reach minus 20 to 30 degrees.
Wearing an almost constant-temperature space suit, there is no need for heating.
However, although the personnel stationed on the position can still maintain their spirits, under extremely cold conditions, their activities will not be as flexible as during the day.
What he needs to do now is to wait quietly for midnight.
Yang Hongwei found a hole for himself and got into it.
He needed a good rest before going on a night raid.
From the moment he jumped off the helicopter to this moment, he basically didn't sleep a wink.
In one day and one night, they covered a distance of tens of kilometers amid the encirclement and suppression by the mechanized infantry regiment.
This process was also full of dangers. Twice, we were almost surrounded by large forces from the opposite side.
Fortunately, the other party obviously did not estimate that he could be that fast.
Before the mechanized infantry regiment completes the encirclement, escape from the gap between the opponent's troops.
As night approached, strong winds gradually began to blow on the grassland.
Yang Hongwei, who was lying in the cave, was sleeping, preparing for the subsequent night attack.
At this time, Jing Haipeng, who had just escaped from the encirclement and suppression by the mechanized infantry regiment, had another trouble.
"We're running out of ammunition."
After counting the ammunition on his body, Jing Haipeng came to this conclusion.
Originally, each of them would have five hundred rounds of ammunition and twenty rounds of grenades.
But the initial battle, and the ensuing breakout, consumed a lot of ammunition.
Moreover, there is no way to replenish ammunition. Although the bullets used by the infantry regiment and the ones they used are all 7.62 caliber.
However, the mechanized infantry regiment mainly uses 7.62*51 caliber bullets for machine guns on armored vehicles.
The 7.62*39 caliber rifle ammunition he used is not universal.
"Ninety-four bullets left and eight grenades left."
After muttering silently in his heart, Jing Haipeng also understood.
If you want to successfully complete the mission behind you, the best way is to no longer have direct conflict with the mechanized infantry regiment.
But judging from the previous day and night of fighting, the coach obviously would not let them complete the task very easily.
Jing Haipeng's first mission was to reach a lake about 18 kilometers away from his initial landing point.
But now, probably because of the need to break out before, he is now further away from the lake.
On the grass, he used a dagger to simply draw a map of the encirclement and suppression he had encountered before from the mechanized infantry group.
Determine where they might appear.
In order to avoid direct conflict with the Jibtu, Jing Haipeng had no particularly good method.
You can only take a detour to avoid the opponent's defense route.
After some simple calculations, Jing Haipeng found that after the detour, the distance he needed to travel reached 60 kilometers!
Logically speaking, Jing Haipeng's physical strength is not weak, and he can cover this distance in less than eight hours.
But what was before him now was another, more serious problem.
That means he basically ran out of food!
The food and water in the emergency system can basically only meet the needs of the human body for a day.
This is without strenuous exercise.
He had been fighting with the Mecha Regiment for a day and a night, and this little food was not enough to maintain the most basic energy.
It has been almost eight hours since the last time I ate.
His stomach was already starting to feel hungry.
After eating the last bit of nutritional ointment from the emergency food, Jing Haipeng opened his mask.
He grabbed a handful of snow from the ground and stuffed it into his mouth.
Feeling the coldness to the bones, the snow turned into streams of water and entered the stomach.
Jing Haipeng has no good solution now if he wants to avoid failure in this training.
The only way is to rush to the lake to complete his first task.
Then complete other tasks and rush to the finish line.
Although he had not rested for a day and a night, he was still in good spirits.
It is not difficult for them to stay up for such a short time.
After briefly checking his equipment, he was ready to head towards the target point, the lake.
However, at this moment, the roar of the diesel engine slowly came from behind.
It's the people from the mechanized infantry group who are catching up again!
Without having time to think about it, Jing Haipeng quickly hid his body in a cave.
There aren't many other things on the grassland, but big holes dug by rabbits and mice are everywhere.
The motorcade of the Mecha Regiment obviously had no idea that they were so close to the goal they had been dreaming about day and night.
He actually drove away less than ten meters away from Jing Haipeng.
Even though he has a very strong psychological quality, he still hears the deafening sound of the engine and rubs his scalp.
There was still a hint of nervousness in my heart.
Fortunately, the other party didn't notice anything unusual here.
In other words, the mechanized infantry regiment is now exhausted from this exercise.
"Old Wang, where did they last appear?"
Gao Lang scratched his almost nonexistent hair in annoyance and asked in a irritated tone.
It's no wonder that Gao Lang's emotions were so out of control. In fact, the current pace of normal exercises was completely beyond his previous experience.
Since entering the training ground yesterday, he has lost almost a company of troops, but not a single enemy has remained.
Such a battle damage ratio almost slapped his face.
As the leader of the ace division, Gao Lang is very proud.
Before entering the exercise, the director told him about his opponent's situation.
He once boasted that he could wipe out the enemy in Haikou in one day.
But now a day and a night have passed, but not even the opponent's hair has been left.
This was really hard for the proud Gao Lang to accept.
“These are the latest places to appear.”
On the map, Wang Jianjun used a pencil to mark the location where the enemy had recently appeared.
Several locations with obvious target characteristics appeared on the map.
"It basically matches the location that the director told us not long ago."
Wang Jianjun said with an unflattering expression that asking the director to cheat on them was really something he couldn't accept.
But if this is not the case, it may be difficult for the mechanized infantry group to catch the opponent's whereabouts.
After all, the training ground covers tens of thousands of square kilometers, and the number of their opponents is extremely small.
There are more than a thousand people in the Mecha Regiment, and even if they are completely spread out, they may not be able to catch them.
And until now, Gao Lang and the others still don't know how many people they are facing.
Judging from the number of battles they encountered, there were at least ten people.
However, it is not yet certain whether an unknown number of people are lurking.
"Their destination should be in this direction."
Gao Lang came to a conclusion after carefully examining the location where the battle took place.
Although the battle location is very chaotic, judging from the entire line, the opponent is still advancing towards the southeast.
"Old Wang, set up a line of defense here."
Gao Lang pointed to the battle map and made his own judgment.
As for whether they can stop those people on the other side in the end, I don’t know.
Late at night, the wind on the grassland howled.
Yang Hongwei had finished resting. After eating a field mouse taken out of a hole in the ground, he felt that his body had recovered.
Begin to prepare to sneak into the target point camp.
Two o'clock in the morning is when people are most sleepy.
Although there were several sentries in the camp, no one went there despite the cold wind.
But my mental state was at its worst.
The armored vehicle's headlights illuminated almost all corners around the position, leaving only a small area that was not illuminated by the lights.
But Yang Hongwei, who is also a soldier, knows very well that such a place is definitely the most dangerous.
Under this darkness, there must be more than one hidden whistle.
If you want to successfully reach the camp, you still have to take risks and rush directly from the opponent's light!
As quickly as possible, before the other party can react.
As long as you enter the camp, you will have space to move around.
The distance that the armored vehicle's headlights can fully illuminate is about fifty meters.
With the exoskeleton power assistance turned on, it takes about 6 seconds.
At this time, if the other party reacts quickly, it is still possible to kill him on the road.
But I chose the time of two o'clock in the morning because it was already too late for the other party to react at this time!
After choosing the route to enter the camp, Yang Hongwei took a deep breath.
Try to adjust your condition to the best, and then turn on the backup power.
Start running from a hundred meters away!
The wind was very loud tonight, hiding his footsteps in the wind.
Six seconds passed almost in the blink of an eye.
Wait until the two sentries in charge of this direction react.
Yang Hongwei was less than ten meters away from them!
The sentry had just transformed the gun he was carrying into a gun-holding posture, and Yang Hongwei had already rushed into their faces.
"Bang! Bang!"
After two shots, the two sentries exited the exercise in confusion.
Then, Yang Hongwei directly activated the howitzer on his right shoulder!
The air-burst personnel anti-personnel bomb directly causes a large area of damage in the position.
Tonight is still very long and the battle continues!
