Chapter 180

After two or three hours in the icy river at midnight.

The faces of the four people became more and more pale. Everyone's lips were closed, their teeth were clattering up and down, the muscles on their faces were almost stiff, their bodies trembled uncontrollably, and their limbs seemed to have been less obedient for a long time.

After a long time of immersion in such cold river water, people's body temperature loss has been very serious.

Although everyone didn't say a word, squeak or complain, I'm afraid everyone's body mechanism has already reached the limit that the body can bear.

It seems that we can't carry it hard. Otherwise, everyone will suffer from severe hypothermia because of the serious loss of body temperature. At that time, let alone whether we can successfully pass the selection of special forces, whether we can live safely is still a problem!

"Monitor! I see, I see, let's, shall we come here?" After bypassing a mountain peak again, Cheng Chong shook his head hard, trembled and asked Xiao Yong.

At this time, Xiao Yong had already tossed him badly because of excessive cold and severe pain in his legs.

Although he heard Cheng Chong's problem, he was very slow in thinking and limbs because of hypothermia. It took him a long time to reluctantly react. He tried to free up one hand, struggled to rub his almost stiff face, and replied, "we, we are probably, have been, how far have we gone?"

"The details... The details are not very clear, but at least it's time to walk 40 or 50 kilometers." Cheng Chong looked around awkwardly, thought for a moment, and still trembled back.

"Yes, there should be." Meng Lang, who was almost frozen, inserted a sentence with trembling.

"What, what is supposed to be! Yes, yes, there must be --" the seventh squad leader, who was so expressionless because his facial muscles were frozen, also put in a word reluctantly.

"Then, that is to say, that is to say, we, we still have twenty or thirty kilometers to go?" Xiao Yong mechanically twisted some necks, looked at the others, and then said slowly.

"No, not very clear. Maybe it will be closer, but it may be farther. This, this is not sure!" Cheng rushed back, paused for a moment, and then said, "however, this distance is nothing to us. We, we have taken back a lot of time."

"Since that's the case, why don't we stick to it! Work hard and reach the destination directly downstream. Why should we continue to run for tens of kilometers?" Although his body had long been so cold that he lost consciousness, when the seventh squad leader heard that there were still dozens of kilometers to go, he couldn't help but retort.

Xiao Yong didn't reply immediately, but trembled desperately, his head shook left and right involuntarily, as if trying to endure the greatest pain in the world.

"No way -" Cheng Chong immediately took the words and explained, "let's, we can't soak in the river anymore! Our bodies can't afford it. If we go on like this, we have to pay for it collectively in the river! What's more, we, we can't directly reach our destination along the river."

"Why?" Faced with this problem, the other three people immediately asked Cheng Chong with one voice. They were unusually clever.

Cheng Chong took a long breath and calmed down, Then he gave his reasons: "first, first, we still don't know whether the river will turn in other directions. Second, second, even if it is a great chance to go all the way to the destination, then, the people of the bird brigade will set up heavy guards at the end. By then, we, who have been frozen for a long time, will surely become their best living target."

With that, Cheng Chong seemed unwilling to add: "So, therefore, we must go ashore in advance. First, we must ensure life safety. Second, we can move along the way and return to normal as much as possible. In this way, we can have the last battle with the people of the bird brigade, so as to break through their last line of defense and reach the destination. They, they must be somewhere near the end The last and tightest blockade has been set up in the area. "

As soon as Cheng Chong said this, they were stunned first, and then surprised!

I didn't expect that Cheng Chong would have such careful and far-reaching thinking. Ordinary people take one step and look at it one step and then think about it one step. This boy obviously takes one step and looks at two steps, but he thinks about three steps or even more.

At the moment, it is not too much to describe him in the words of foresight.

And along the way, almost all his judgments and choices were correct. Even if there were occasional mistakes or accidents, it was beyond human control and prediction. He can always stand up and put forward reasonable opinions and suggestions at the most critical moment or the most critical moment, so as to lead everyone all the way to the present.

The other three have no reason to refute him.

Cheng Chong's proposal was quickly unanimously recognized by the other three people, and was soon effectively implemented.

After the body barely recovered some activity ability, the four people worked together, pushed and pulled, and quietly swam to the shore as small as possible with the help of this dry trunk.

After swimming hard to the shore for a long time along the water potential, the four people are about to reach the shore.

At this time, under the pale moonlight in the second half of the night and under the water not far away, a fuzzy shadow suddenly appeared, and the direction of the shadow also pointed to the shore.

In the quiet river in the late middle of the night, in the river deep in the dense jungle, such a strange and almost strange scene suddenly appeared in front of us. Everyone immediately felt creepy and bluffed!

Suddenly, some inexplicable or unreasonable water monster images and so on appeared in everyone's mind in disorder and without a clue.

An indescribable gloom and terror occupied everyone's mind!

Fuck you! What the hell is this? What the hell is this? Don't scare the guys, will you?

The four people were surprised when such a thing suddenly appeared without warning! Under the tension, out of the vigilance and instinct of the soldiers, everyone quickly turned their Bayi rifles over, as if they were in great danger and self-defense, holding the rifles tightly in their hands and in front of their chest. His eyes did not dare to shift, and he stared at every move of the strange shadow.

Although everyone knows very well that there are only empty bullets and no live ammunition in their magazines, even shooting can only serve as a warning at most.

Fortunately, the strange shadow under the water did not come in the direction of the four people, but quickly crossed the shore, far faster than the four people. Moreover, he swam quickly at a depth of one or two feet from the water surface, but there was no sound, and there was no spray on the water surface.

Although the four people were badly frightened, they still took some heart when they saw that the dark shadow was not coming at their own people. Even the originally intensified heartbeat slowed down the beating speed. However, everyone's eyes are still inseparable from the role of the shadow. On the one hand, it is the necessary vigilance of soldiers, and on the other hand, it is also the promotion of everyone's curiosity.

What the hell is this? What the hell?

Everyone's heart has such a big question number! Curiosity was also greatly hooked up and had to have a look! Otherwise, never stop!

Under the watchful eyes of the four people, the strange shadow suddenly and quietly appeared from the bottom of the water when it was about to reach the shore, and the truth was revealed in front of the four people.

It was a frogman in a black rubber coat, a special combat member of the Navy amphibious force.

Obviously, the sharp frog man had already found the four people, because he quickly turned his head and stared at the four people at the moment when he quietly emerged from the water. The rifle in the water in his hand was already ready to fire at any time.

Vigilance and threat are mutual, and as a soldier, being vigilant at all times is an instinct engraved in their genes and will never be forgotten.

Seeing this, the four people wanted to embrace the Bayi rifle in their first reaction, but they were soon stopped by cautious Cheng Chong. His reason is very simple: because this frog man is definitely not an enemy or a member of the bird brigade. If he was, he would have laid down his four people when he was in the water just now. Why wait until now?

Cheng Chong firmly believes that people are professional in water or underwater, and his four people are not even semi professional. If the other party wants to bring down the four of them, it's easy. Why wait until now?

Soon, after finding that the four people had no hostility, the frog slowly relaxed his necessary vigilance, then turned the rubber mask over his head, and a dark and handsome national face appeared in front of the four people.

The four are still in a series of startles and have not fully reacted at all. The frog man did not say hello to the four people, but smiled kindly at them symbolically, turned around and quickly climbed up the river bank. In the complex eyes of the four people, they quickly disappeared into the dim jungle at night.

Until the frog man completely disappeared from the four people's eyes, the four people who were stunned for a long time reacted faintly, and their thinking slowly returned to the cold and numb reality.

From the startled reaction, after completely returning to reality, the four people only felt the cold of death, the cold of numbness, and the shivering of their whole body without any control, and almost all their muscles were frozen and stiff. The limbs, like local officials in the last dynasty, have long been out of control.

Nothing else, we must go ashore at once!

Facing the cold of death, everyone instinctively reached this consensus.

Continue to work hard and quickly swim to the shore. At the moment when everyone's feet trampled on the silt at the bottom of the river, the heart everyone hung finally fell to the ground with it.

After arriving at the shore, the people who had been almost unable to control themselves for a long time left the dry trunk that helped them all the way and quickly climbed towards the grass on the shore one after another. As if they were racing against each other, they were really afraid of freezing in the cold river. At the moment, one minute less is one minute, and one second less is one second. Where is the mind to take care of the whereabouts of that dry trunk!

Cheng Chong, alone, was still dragging the dry trunk and gritting his teeth to the shore!

"What are you doing with that thing? Do you want it to be firewood? Throw it away and let it go downstream!" After climbing onto the shore, the seventh squad leader looked back and saw Cheng Chong dragging the dry trunk in the water, and then said angrily to him.

"No --" Cheng gasped and went on out of breath, "no, let's, we can't throw this trunk into the river."

"What? You're still green? Don't worry! It's wood, not waste wood, not garbage. It can't pollute the river!" The seventh squad leader turned back and smiled, waved his hand, and joked.

"It's not pollution -" Cheng Chong continued to drag forward with difficulty, continued to breathe heavily, and replied: "if this river passes through the defense area of the bird brigade and this section of trunk flows down, it is likely to expose our whereabouts. Therefore, in any case, this section of trunk can't stay in the water."

When Cheng Chong explained to the seventh squad leader, without waiting for the seventh squad leader to reply, he turned and shouted to Meng Lang in a low voice: "rotten man, your uncle, just care about himself, won't you come to help?"

Among the four, only Meng Lang is his soldier of the same year, and only Meng Lang is qualified to call.

"You said it earlier -" Meng Lang, who was also numb with cold, although he spoke very quickly, his action was surprisingly slow. After a long time, he turned and jumped into the water again, and worked hard with Cheng Chong to drag the dry trunk.

"Make a mountain out of a molehill? What happened? I don't believe it. The people of the bird brigade will always focus on the river. I don't believe it..." the seventh squad leader said disapprovingly after quickly pouring out the river in his military boots.

"Be careful, be careful, be careful, you can't be wrong! Although this is not a real military action, there will be no danger to our lives. But as long as we are careless, we may lose all our previous achievements and return to the situation before liberation overnight." With the help of Meng Lang, Cheng Chong patiently explained to the seventh squad leader while dragging the dry trunk.

Then he continued: "If this is a real military action, any seemingly minor negligence or carelessness may cause immeasurable trouble. Don't underestimate all seemingly minor and insignificant things. Sometimes, a small thing, a small event or a small person will dominate the huge balance of war, even directly It affects the pattern of the world, so there must be no carelessness! "

Xiao Yong, who stood aside and endured severe pain, recognized Cheng Chong's meaning. At the same time, he also recognized his opinion. Then he shouted angrily to the seventh squad leader: "what are you talking about? Won't you go up to help? You can only sit there and talk empty words and empty the gun! Are you alone tired?"

The seventh squad leader looked back at Xiao Yong, who was also sitting on the ground to rest, and jokingly flattened his mouth. Although he was very dissatisfied, he didn't talk back to Xiao Yong, who was the captain of the whole team. Then he struggled to stand up, jumped into the water again, and dragged the tree trunk that had soaked in water and became heavier and heavier with Cheng Chong and Meng Lang.

None of the three noticed Xiao Yong's abnormality at the moment, and no one knew the huge and severe pain he endured at the moment. Although Ye Xiaochuan, the Deputy monitor of the previous class, repeatedly warned Guo chengchong and Meng Lang, they didn't understand the specific meaning of those words at all.

Perhaps they both feel that after years of hard training, almost all veterans have some physical problems, and the problem on monitor Xiao Yong's leg is probably similar to those on other veterans! It seems nothing special!

What they didn't realize was that if monitor Xiao Yong didn't have pain in his leg at the moment, he would never assign monitor 7, but he sat on the ground to rest.
