Back at the border guard station, the dozen or so people who went into the water were so cold that they could barely walk, their lips were pale, and their hands were trembling. They changed their clothes, surrounded by a thick quilt, and warmed themselves by the stove. It took a long time to recover.
It's a pity that they didn't rest for long, and set off after a meal. The people at the border station received news that they had found the traces of the four people who had fled. The four people were probably going to join other teams, and they chased after them. There is hope for a clean sweep.
They followed the traces left by the horses for a whole day, and the group of people did not rush to the territory, but instead circled back to the position near the border, and they might even plan to return to one of those villages , they guessed about the same, these four people will catch more people.
The next afternoon, they joined the team led by Lao Sha. After exchanging news, it was learned that the group of people ran into the depths of the mountain in order to avoid tracking, and there may be quite a few of them.
Lao Sha said: "The nearest village is only four or five kilometers away from us. This group of people must have been hiding here. There are people in the village who take care of them. We have to go into the village to have a look, but the people here are tough, so we can't be open-minded. Let's go, sneak in after dark."
During the day, they went around the village and touched the terrain of the whole village. It has snowed all day today, and at night they will be able to judge which house has hidden people from the clues around each house...
After the investigation, they hid in the mountains to rest.
Huo Qiao looked at his watch, "Hurry up and get some sleep, we have to find that group tonight."
Bai Xinyu raised his head and stared at Huo Qiao, the more he looked at it, the more he felt...it was pretty.
Huo Qiao noticed his eyes and looked down at him, "What are you looking at?"
Bai Xinyu said: "Look how handsome the vice-captain is."
Huo Qiao kicked his thigh with his foot, and said with a smile, "It's really good."
Bai Xinyu looked at Yu Fengcheng. Yu Fengcheng was lowering his head to wipe his gun. Hearing this, he raised his head and smiled at Huo Qiao. That smile was really sunny. Bai Xinyu didn't like it very much. Yu Fengcheng was a serious wolf in front of others. , in front of him is an arrogant cheetah, but in front of Huo Qiao, at most it is a loyal Labrador, Bai Xinyu knows that the cheetah is Yu Fengcheng's true face, should he be happy that Yu Fengcheng never hides his inferiority in front of him?
Bai Xinyu pretended to ask Yu Fengcheng casually, "Did the deputy team bring you up when you were young?"
Yu Fengcheng was puzzled, "He is seven years older than me, how can he take me with him?"
"I mean, did you often follow him when you were young, just like I often followed my brother. My brother is only five or six years older than me. He took me to play since he was a child."
Yu Fengcheng nodded, "For a while my grandma was in poor health, and he lived in my house for several years, because he is nineteen years older than my mother, and my mother almost treated him like a son."
Bai Xinyu said happily: "That's about the same as my brother. After my aunt passed away, my brother came to live in my house from time to time. I can understand why you adore the vice team. I also adore my brother. When I was young, I learned everything from him. I also hope that I can be like him when I grow up." Hearing this, Bai Xinyu was relieved a lot. If you compare his feelings for Jian Suiying, Yu Fengcheng's longing for Huo Qiao, which has taken root since childhood and is deeply rooted in his heart, is no different. It's hard to understand.
Yu Fengcheng gave a absent-minded "hmm".
Bai Xinyu asked again: "The deputy team has been in the army for so many years and has not had a girlfriend? My brother who is so philandering has settled down, so he must still have not met that person."
Yu Fengcheng frowned, "Why did you suddenly inquire about my uncle, he is different from your brother, his time is devoted to the party and the country, your brother..." Yu Fengcheng snorted softly and didn't go any further.
Hearing this tone, Bai Xinyu felt a little upset, "What's wrong with my brother, my brother still devotes his time to his family and relatives, although he has raised a litter of white-eyed wolves, but... isn't everyone's home a home? What are you unconvinced about?"
"I'm not unconvinced." Yu Fengcheng said lightly.
"Then you..." Bai Xinyu imitated his tone and snorted softly, "What does this mean?"
Yu Fengcheng stared at him, "Why are you so nervous today, you were the one who mentioned my uncle to me first."
Bai Xinyu said quickly, "Can't your uncle mention it?"
Yu Fengcheng narrowed his eyes, "Is your brain flooded, it's inexplicable."
Bai Xinyu also felt that he was writing for no reason, but there was something stuck in his heart, and he was not feeling well. He rolled his eyelids, "Well, I'm tired, I'm resting." After finishing speaking, he closed his eyes and leaned against the stone fell asleep.
Yu Fengcheng stared at Bai Xinyu for a while, with complicated emotions in his eyes.
After lying down for a while, Bai Xinyu couldn't fall asleep either, so he simply got up and went to the toilet. When he came back, he saw Yan Shaozhen in the corner, couldn't help but walked over and kicked him.
Yan Shaozhen opened one eye, "What's wrong?"
"Talk to you."
Yan Shaozhen sat up, looked at Yu Fengcheng in the distance, Yu Fengcheng was resting, he said with a smile: "Sit down."
Bai Xinyu sat cross-legged in the snow, playing with the stone in his hand, and said in a muffled voice, "What did you mean by what you said last time?"
"What? There's no beginning or end." Yan Shaozhen yawned.
"That's what you told me in the dormitory before we went to the small black room for the assessment." Bai Xinyu whispered: "You said, Yu Fengcheng's eyes always follow..."
Yan Shaozhen smiled, a sly light flashed in his eyes, "Did you find that his eyes always fell asleep?"
Bai Xinyu asked back, "You found out?"
Yan Shaozhen sneered and said, "I minored in social psychology in college. It's a bit inaccurate to say that I minored in social psychology, because I took a degree when I was idle and bored."
"What's that for?"
"It doesn't matter what you do, what matters is." Yan Shaozhen pointed to her eyes, "I'm especially good at observing people."
Bai Xinyu whispered: "Then when you observed Yu Fengcheng, what did you find?"
"What did you discover again?"
Bai Xinyu rolled his eyes at him, "I'll ask you if I know."
Yan Shaozhen said: "You already guessed it, but you're just not sure."
Bai Xinyu stared at him, "Don't talk nonsense, do you know what I know?"
Yan Shaozhen shrugged, "If you really knew something, you wouldn't ask me."
Bai Xinyu was slightly annoyed, "I won't tell you anymore, I'm just talking about it." Saying that, he was about to leave.
Yan Shaozhen grabbed his hand, pulled him back, leaned over and whispered in his ear: "Xinyu, we are friends, so I want to remind you not to take some things too seriously."
Bai Xinyu frowned and said, "What do you mean?"
Yan Shaozhen smiled and said, "You will understand later." His eyes drifted to Bai Xinyu's back, watching Yu Fengcheng walking towards them with a vicious expression on his face.
Bai Xinyu was thinking about that sentence when suddenly his body lightened and he was lifted off the ground. He looked back and saw that Yu Fengcheng was looking down at him, and said with a fake smile: "Going to the toilet for so long , do you want me to cure your kidney deficiency?"
Bai Xinyu was stunned for a while.
Yan Shaozhen smiled and said to Yu Fengcheng: "He's already done it, we're chatting, and you come to chat too?"
Yu Fengcheng stared at him, "No need, he must rest." After speaking, he dragged Bai Xinyu away.
Yan Shaozhen looked at the backs of the two of them, showing an inexplicable smile.
Bai Xinyu pulled Yu Fengcheng back to the place where they stayed just now, and Yu Fengcheng pushed him back into the snow, "Sleep while you sleep, and wipe the barrel of the gun for me as long as you want to be energetic."
Bai Xinyu pushed the gun away, "No."
Yu Fengcheng put his arms around his shoulders, put his lips against his ears, and whispered: "What did you just say?"
"Nonsense."
"What are you talking about?"
"What can you talk about in nonsense, forget it."
Yu Fengcheng narrowed his eyes, "You don't have anything to hide from me, do you?"
Bai Xinyu said impatiently: "My life is so simple now, I can't hide anything from you." The more he thought about Yan Shaozhen's words, the more uncomfortable he became. What does that boy mean by being weird
Yu Fengcheng secretly pinched his waist.
Bai Xinyu yelled in a low voice, gritted his teeth and said, "What are you doing!"
Yu Fengcheng snorted coldly, "Itchy hands."
Bai Xinyu raised his middle finger at him.
Yu Fengcheng grabbed his hand, stuffed it into his pocket, and said in a low voice: "Sleep with you, don't go looking for him again."
Bai Xinyu looked at his domineering appearance, a little funny, and whispered: "Are you jealous again?"
Yu Fengcheng squeezed his palm.
Bai Xinyu was next to him and closed his eyes. He is not qualified to say Yu Fengcheng himself, he is so suspicious, he must be jealous... It's really interesting, in the past he was jealous because of women's rivalry, for the sake of saving face, but now, all he cares about is who Yu Fengcheng is looking at. No matter what the reason is, at least Yu Fengcheng is not looking at him from time to time, if so, he would have sensed it a long time ago...
After dark, they moved into action. Residents in that village are far away from each other, and it is very cold after the sun goes down, and generally no one comes out for activities, so they sent a few people to sneak into the village quietly, searching for the traces left by the terrorists .
After searching for more than two hours, Lao Sha notified them by radio that they had found a clue. He found two newly slaughtered sheep, some footprints, and other clues in the yard of a family. There are many guests.
Huo Qiao said: "Find a way to bring out the owner of the house."
"Okay." After Lao Sha finished speaking, his voice fell silent.
Half an hour later, he came back with an old man in his fifties. The old man had sunken eye sockets, was skinny, and his eyes were full of hostility and fear.
Lao Sha asked a Uyghur soldier to come over for questioning, and soon found out that the group had indeed stayed at his house for two days, gave him some gold, and took away some food.
Huo Qiao said: "Ask him where the gang went."
The Uyghur comrade-in-arms asked chatteringly. Bai Xinyu had learned the Uyghur language for a while, but he still couldn't understand it.
"He said he didn't know."
"He's lying." Huo Qiao pointed at him, "You have taken psychoanalysis class, look at his expression and eyes."
Bai Xinyu took a look, this old man was uneducated, so naturally he was not very good at hiding his emotions, his eyes dodged and his eyebrows quivered, he was typically lying.
Lao Sha said: "Kunlun Mountain is so big, there are no locals to lead the way, how dare you enter the mountain casually, those people must have gone into the mountain to hide, it is likely that he led the way, continue to ask."
The Uyghur comrades continued to press and question an old man in his 60s and 70s, and they were not good at torture. In the end, Huo Qiao took off the old man's shirt, tied him to a stone, and then led others pretending to leave.
At that time, the low temperature was minus 20 degrees. If you really wanted to be tied here, you would die soon. The old man finally got scared and shouted to tell the truth.
The group of people really hid on the mountain, and wanted to wait until they left before going down the mountain.
Huo Qiao asked the old man to lead the way, but the old man had no choice but to lead them up the mountain.
The snow on the mountain became heavier and heavier, and the road became more and more difficult to walk. Once they stepped into the snow, they had to pull it out with great effort. They were all worried about whether the old man could hold on. As a result, the old man was obviously used to such an environment. Don't be afraid.
After walking for more than an hour, they came to the middle of the two peaks. There was a narrow road in the middle, with strange-shaped rocks and caves on both sides. Such a complex terrain was really suitable for guerrilla warfare, and they immediately became wary.
The old man didn't leave when he got here, saying that those people were nearby, and he didn't know where they were. The old man originally agreed with them to pick them up in three days, but now it's not the time, and he is not sure if they are still here.
No trace of anyone was found, Huo Qiao didn't let him go, "We divided into two teams and went to the mountain to investigate. If there is an emergency, we will set off fireworks."
They braved the wind and snow and climbed up two mountains respectively. The altitude here is more than 5,000 meters, dry and lack of oxygen, and everyone feels a little difficult to breathe.
Bai Xinyu panted heavily, and poured wind and snow into his stomach with his mouth open, the wind grew stronger as he climbed up, and the wind blew so hard that he couldn't keep his eyes open. The visibility here is so low, if he encounters an enemy, he really doesn't know whether it will be good or bad.
Just as he was thinking, a voice suddenly came from the front: "Lie down!"
Without even thinking about it, everyone instinctively lay down in the snow with a thud, and then, several gunshots came from their ears. Bai Xinyu rolled several times, hid behind a rock, quickly raised his gun, and shouted, "What's going on!"
Lao Sha said hurriedly: "I found the enemy's trace."
Huo Qiao scolded: "Damn it, the wind and snow are so heavy, and the sky is so dark. If you can see clearly whether it's an enemy or a friend, then you will be a ghost. Everyone, you can shoot after you see clearly!" Because the radio waves were unstable, his voice was noisy The noise is particularly harsh.
Bai Xinyu looked at Yu Fengcheng next to him, "Did you see anyone?"
"Seeing a figure, I'm not sure who it is." Yu Fengcheng frowned.
They are all waiting for Hojo's next instruction.
Huo Qiao quickly said: "One team is left wing, the second team is right wing, and the third team is covering. Remember to see clearly before shooting, and don't accidentally injure your own people."
"Yes!"
Yu Fengcheng and Bai Xinyu held their guns, muttered twice, and rushed to the left. Under the dark night, they could barely see a few figures flashing behind the rocks, gesturing at them with their guns, and the three teams fired their guns desperately to cover them. They and the second team rushed forward under the pressure of the bullets, forcing the group to retreat again and again.
Huo Qiao sneered and said, "Brothers, we can't let them run away this time, count as many as they are, and kill them all!"
A group of people roared and rushed over. Although it looked like a rampage, in fact, everyone was rushing and dodging cautiously. The roar was just to scare the enemy.
Bullets whizzed by with the biting cold wind. In this snowy and starless night, dozens of people staged a desperate pursuit on the snow-capped mountains.
The enemy was forced to retreat steadily by them, and was soon defeated. Although these people have received military training, that kind of training is incomparable to that of the regular army, and it is even more different from the elite special forces who have been selected from thousands of people. After escaping on the mountain, it is more convenient for them to defeat them one by one.
Huo Qiao shouted: "Don't let them run away, you two go to the east to intercept, hurry up! Little fish, take the squad leader and the princess to the north, don't let anyone slip away."
"Yes!"
Yu Fengcheng took the lead, followed by Bai Xinyu and Chen Jing. The three of them were like three wolves in the night, running fast in the pure white snow, chasing the fleeing prey in front of them. At that time, the snow was nearly knee-deep. Maintaining a running speed in such deep snow required very demanding physical strength. After chasing for two days, their bodies were already overloaded. At critical moments, they can still unleash amazing fighting power, biting their prey persistently.
Soon, the five fleeing people were getting closer and closer to them. Bai Xinyu raised his gun while running, and there was a bang, but he missed, but it frightened the five people and slowed down a little.
The three shot in the back one after another, and finally hit one person. Seeing that one person was shot, the other four became more panicked and stopped running. They hid behind a rock and shot at them.
The three quickly found cover, and the two sides shot back and forth, and the battle was stalemate for a while.
Yu Fengcheng said in a low voice: "You two are covering me, they are so stingy with their guns, they must be running out of bullets."
Bai Xinyu and Chen Jing nodded vigorously.
Yu Fengcheng leaned out and fired two shots, hitting the opponent so hard that he couldn't get his head up. He rushed out. Bai Xinyu and Chen Jing shot at the rock where those people were hiding, covered Yu Fengcheng and rushed forward, and soon they were away from them. Less than four meters.
Yu Fengcheng killed one of them with a single shot, and at the same time pulled the tab of a grenade, threw it to the other side, and fell to the ground suddenly.
The grenade exploded, and the entire mountain seemed to tremble.
Just as the last remaining person aimed at Yu Fengcheng, Bai Xinyu yelled, and a bullet pierced through the wind and snow, and shot into that person's body.
All is at peace.
Yu Fengcheng got up from the ground and patted the snow that fell on his body.
Bai Xinyu and Chen Jing ran over, "Fengcheng, are you alright?"
Yu Fengcheng shook his head.
The three of them went over to check, and only one was still breathing, but it seemed that he was dying. Bai Xinyu looked at the enemy who had been pierced through his lungs and was dying in the snow, and he didn't know what it was like. He only knew that he had become cold, that he had experienced psychological stripping, and killed someone with his own hands. I feel like I really became a special soldier. A calm, ruthless fighter who doesn't let unnecessary things affect him on the battlefield.
They went back to join the others, and saw a man lying in the snow, his body was soaked with blood, and Huo Qiao was bandaging him.
I ran over and saw that it was the youngest recruit here, only 19 years old, and his left leg was hit by a stray bullet. The situation was not optimistic. Huo Qiao was sweating all over his head in anxiety. After bandaging, he looked at everyone, "I have a very difficult task for you, which is to take him down the mountain. He is bleeding, and he won't last long. You must do it as quickly as possible." Contact the border guards to rescue him, who can complete this task?"
Everyone in the circle was silent for a few seconds, and finally Lao Sha said, "Give me three."
Huo Qiao said, "Okay, take the roll call."
Lao Sha ordered the three fastest ones, all of whom were veterans, and he carried that soldier on his back, "Can you hear me, you must hold on, you know?"
The soldier said weakly: "Must... must hold on."
Lao Sha took a deep breath, "Let's go!" After finishing speaking, he quickly ran down the mountain with him on his back, followed by the other three.
Others continued to suppress the terrorists hiding in the mountains. They suppressed them all night long. By the dawn of the next day, all the 31 people mentioned by the old man had been suppressed, and four of them were captured alive.
The soldiers didn't sleep all night, and they were exhausted. They tied the men down the mountain and walked for a long time in the freezing Kunlun Mountains. Finally, they met the border guards and were pulled back to the camp.
When they returned to the camp, they realized that the soldier Lao Sha and the others carried back had undergone surgery and was out of danger, but his leg injury would prevent him from getting out of bed for at least several months. The brigade is up.
This was the soldier's first mission. He had been a member of the Snow Leopard Brigade for less than two months, but the reality was so cruel.
When a group of people warmed up in the camp of the border guards, they were silent for a long time without speaking. Although this mission was completed, any success with casualties would not be pleasant, especially this time with so many For new recruits, the first time is always accompanied by a lot of confusion and gloom, and it is not easy for them to reconcile that mood for a while.
Three days later, they left Kunlun Mountains by plane. Bai Xinyu looked all the way down at the snow-capped mountains, still fantasizing about seeing his former camp, but that camp was too small compared to the vast snow-capped mountains, and he couldn't find a place to pin his longing for his former comrades-in-arms. The injured recruit reminded him of himself. If one day he was seriously injured or even died... It's not that he didn't think about these consequences. Everyone who joined the Snow Leopard Team was mentally prepared. , when he charged under the pressure in the hail of bullets, he felt the god of death so close to him for the first time, and he didn't know what would happen to him if he was shot, or if Yu Fengcheng was shot.
Before getting off the plane, Huo Qiao said with a helpless expression: "Have your mouths been sewn up all day? We wiped out more than a hundred people this time, but none of them died. They were only partially injured, which is already very good." It's over, so I hate bringing recruits the most, there were always so many things in the first few times."
Everyone was silent.
Huo Qiao leaned against the cabin wall and chuckled, "It doesn't matter, just a few more experiences will be fine, no, there will be another mission in a few days."
Bai Xinyu raised his head and stared at him blankly.
The corner of Huo Qiao's mouth twitched slightly, "This is the life of the Snow Leopard Squad, welcome to experience it."
