After heavy rain, there is a muddy road.
The roads in this period were not asphalt roads in later generations, but just smoother hardened roads. In such heavy rains, it would inevitably become muddy and difficult to travel.
The car of Xu San and his party was seriously overloaded, and it was fine when driving on ordinary roads. But if it encountered such a muddy road, it would get stuck in it if not careful, or the tires would slip.
The first car is Kurosaki, and this seems to be the case now.
There is a big slope ahead, very steep!
Kurosaki's car climbed up twice but failed to climb up. Each time it only climbed a little and then slid off.
If Xu San hadn't asked to keep the distance between cars from the beginning, he would have bumped into the car behind him when he slid down for the first time.
Akagi honked the horn once and for a short time, and Kurosaki's car in front stopped at the bottom of the slope.
He opened the car door and jumped out.
Stepping on the muddy road, Xu San frowned as soon as his feet touched the ground, because judging from the touch on his feet, the ground was very slippery and difficult to walk on.
It’s hard for people to walk, let alone cars.
Squatting down to look at the depth of the ruts made his eyebrows furrow deeper.
However, it doesn't matter.
For this kind of slope, he is still confident to climb it, because he used to drive Wuling to deliver goods, and he can climb slopes that are more difficult to climb than this.
Kurosaki got off the car and Xu San got on.
Then several other special forces members also got out of the car, intending to see how Xu San climbed this slippery steep slope.
After Xu San got in the car, he first tried the feel of the car and started to reverse. After reversing a certain distance, he jumped out of the car again and walked to the top of the car to scout the route.
When he got back into the car, he officially started climbing.
In Xu San's opinion, even if the cars of this era have been modified, they are not as comfortable as driving the Wuling in his later generations.
But they are all cars and the principles are the same.
Release the clutch, shift into gear, and release the accelerator, and the car rushes out.
Xu San's route is actually similar to Kurosaki's, but his throttle control is much better than Kurosaki's.
After about half a minute, the severely overweight car finally climbed to the top.
He found a place to pull over and stopped, and then told several special operations team members about the climbing skills.
After mastering the skills, several special operations team members were able to climb to the top of the slope skillfully.
After all four cars were parked, Akagi took out dry food and prepared to have lunch.
Fukang Boruto came to Xu San with the can and said, "I didn't expect that Your Excellency Xu San's racking skills were so good. Even if it wasn't raining, it would be difficult to drive on the slope just now. I didn't expect that it would be so easy after listening to Your Excellency's explanation." Just climbed up.”
"It's actually quite simple. Just start planning the route, and the rest is a matter of throttle control and pendulum control!"
"The timing of shifting from first gear to second gear is also important. I couldn't climb up at first because I never shifted to second gear." Kurosaki also added.
Xu San nodded and looked at the time, "Everyone, eat quickly. This heavy rain has delayed a lot of work. If we can't arrive at Tianlong Mountain in time, we may be labeled as delaying the military flight."
"We are very rich in time. According to our current driving speed, we can get there in three hours at most." Akagi said, looking up at the sky, and continued, "It looks like it won't rain again today!"
Xu San glanced at Chimu and said, "Don't forget, we have to go around Guashan to hide the gold!"
When several special operations team members heard this, their expressions changed slightly, and they quickly began to eat the food in their hands.
Xu San took out a large piece of beef from the can with his hands. While chewing it, he said, "The grandsons in the logistics are getting better and better at dealing with it. Most of this can is now filled with starch." After that, he took a sip of water and returned it. The unchewed beef was swallowed.
"It's true. After Xu Sanjun reminded me, I discovered that when I first joined the army, I could still eat large chunks of beef in the can! Now I can't even see the beef cubes." Akagi continued.
"Hey~ You can't blame the logistics entirely. All you need to fight a war is money, and the millions of troops eating, drinking, and sleeping are enough for them." Boruto Fukan said, finding a suitable reason for the logistics.
"The war is getting worse and worse. I'm afraid if we fight for another two years, there won't even be one tael of beef in this can." Xu San sighed while scraping the residue in the can with his fingers.
After shaving it clean, he sighed, "The front line is stretched too long, and of course the supplies cannot keep up. And our troops are not good at production, which makes the logistics slowly start to be unable to keep up."
"Isn't Mr. Xu San good at production? Isn't your cement factory doing well now?" Fukang Boren flattered him a little.
"What's the point of doing it alone? Not only do I have to focus on production, but I also have to deal with those officers who want to have sex for free! You think it's easy for me, so let's stop talking about this! Kurosaki, map!"
Kurosaki put down the food in his hand, opened the car door, took out the map, and laid it on the engine cover.
Xu San pointed with his finger, "We will arrive at Guashan soon! To be on the safe side, we'd better do some reconnaissance first. Let's park the car here first, and then Kurosaki and Hongye, you do reconnaissance from these two directions. Look. Are there any special circumstances? And see if there are any places suitable for hiding gold. Well, look for a few more places."
"Hi!"
The car started again and drove slowly along the mountain road. About forty minutes later, several small cars once again entered the dense jungle and drove towards a large mountain.
Xu San, who was sitting in Car No. 2, closed his eyes and wondered if he would encounter the den that Lucy mentioned when he went to Guashan to hide gold this time, the den that made smoking cessation medicine cakes.
At that time, she said it casually, and Xu San didn't pay attention. Now that she thinks about it, she was really hasty in choosing Guashan to hide the gold.
Hey, lack of sleep affects judgment!
While Xu San was thinking wildly, he suddenly felt the car shake.
This is the feeling of slamming on the brakes.
Opening his eyes, he saw Kurosaki's No. 1 car in front of him had stopped.
He turned to look at the driver Akagi and asked, "What's going on?"
"I don't know, Kurosaki-kun suddenly braked." Akagi said holding the steering wheel.
"I'll go down and take a look and get ready to fight." Xu San said, then he jumped out of the car with Thomson in his arms. After getting out of the car, he made a warning gesture to the two cars behind him, and then hurried to Car No. 1 is approaching.
At this moment, Kurosaki also jumped out of the car. Without waiting for Xu San to ask questions, he spoke first, "There are ruts!"
"Rut? Here!?" Xu San asked.
Kurosaki walked a few steps, pointed at a weed and said, "This!"
Xu San took a closer look and saw that it was really there.
But it was already blurry at the moment. (End of chapter)
