Steel Steam and Flame

"The most important thing is that there has been no follow-up action on the volcano base." This is a situation that many people worry about.

It is impossible for them to face the airship. The two were never things standing on the same level. Their firegun bullets couldn't even penetrate the armor of the enemy airship, and could only splash a flamboyant but weak spark on it.

The team moved forward again for more than a long time. Blizzard continued to grow stronger, and the wind was unwilling to stop, and it began to whistle again. The wind was so great that it was no longer suitable for driving, and the sky soon came to night. Everyone felt that they were not walking in a mountain range, but walking on a completely frozen glacier.

"There are many places like this on the endless sea. The climate there is very cold. A large area is frozen. Heavy snow and strong wind are common. Now the situation in this mountain is almost the same as there." He opened his mouth. It was a veteran who used to stay in the military base on the endless sea. "The equipment there is specially designed for cold resistance. When you go out to perform tasks, you can feel difficult enough when patrolling, let alone Say what we are now."

The others sighed, and they hid in a slightly more spacious recess, leaning against a few straight and strong trees. The snow in the pit has been cleaned up, and they are now burning solid fuel, using the iron pot made of bullet shells to boil hot water to drink.

Cassia and the other two captains were busy pushing a few larger stones outside to build a simple windbreak on the limelight of the pit. But the main function is not to prevent wind, but to prevent a large amount of snow from being carried into the pit by the wind. The place to stay is not large. Without some precautions, it is easy to be buried by a gust of snow in the middle of the night.

"It's probably a gale of magnitude seven or eight." The captain of the third team was talking, and the temporary construction of the windbreak was completed. The snow blown by the wind was separated here like running water, and piled on both sides.

Just a few meters away under the snow and mist flying in the sky, the faces of the other two captains were blurred.

"This level of wind will affect our actions. If you don't walk close to the ground, the veterans can't move at all. When the wind stops, Major Barron and the others may have encountered the same problem, as agreed. Time has arrived at the meeting place. The weather should not work now." The three men walked to the pit, and a group of soldiers were drinking hot water.

Several large trees nearby were also shaken by the strong wind, and their branches were bent a lot, but they were so flexible that none of them were broken. On the contrary, the evergreen leaves have been frozen by the cold temperature, and now they have become broken under intense friction, leaving only a few branches in many places.

"Probably it was a cold current coming across the sea from the right-phase continent. Otherwise, I would not have thought of the cause of this kind of weather." Three piles of roaring flames burned in the pit, and several people sat on the edge of the fire. Except for the guards, everyone was resting with their eyes closed.

It seemed that no one really fell asleep. Snow would patronize this shallow pit from time to time, and the fire was kept, but the soldiers had to wipe their faces from time to time. Before long, it was not a layer of snow or a frost.

This situation continued until the next day during the day, and the strong wind did not stop until about noon. Blizzard was a little smaller at the same time, and many people have discovered that the light is brighter after this. It seems that the snow clouds in the sky are slowly being consumed.

At this time, they finally poked their heads out of the pit, and there was a soft white cotton-like outside, only the breeze raised a little snow mist from time to time, filling the snow surface.

The windbreak has played a big role. When Cassia and the others looked out of the pit, there were two high walls made of snow in their eyes.

"Fortunately, I had this preparation yesterday." Others sighed. Because of the windbreak wall, the snow piled up on both sides is more than two meters high, slowly descending in a trapezoidal shape, like a small mountain model, placed not far from the pit.

Snow of this thickness is no longer suitable for driving. Even if there is no wind, Cassia and the three of them can open the way in front and use their bodies and super endurance to walk out of a feasible snow passage, but the difficulty of driving still exceeds the tolerance limit of others.

Everyone looked at the snow in front of them and shook their heads. Cassia remembered the idea of ​​snowboarding. I saw a few straight trees next to me. Although I don't know the type of tree, after the test of strong wind, the flexibility should meet the requirements.

Then everyone moved their hands. There were veterans from the endless sea in the team who were very good at skiing, and he said the same afterwards. Don't worry about the technical problems, now only the production of skis. I brought down those big trees with a gun, and the trunk couldn't handle it, but the other branches could be used. The rope is one of the necessities that everyone carries, and the idea is feasible.

After staying in the same place for a while, the problem of driving in the snow was finally solved.

The effect was not as good as everyone thought, and in terms of speed and physical exertion, it was only about one or two levels less than before. But it's enough. At least many equipment can be replaced by simple sleds.

In the end, the other seventeen people walked smoothly on the surface of the snow, but Cassia and the other two captains could only rely on their bodies to drive in the snow like a river~www. ltnovel.com~ The weight of the surgeon is not comparable to ordinary people. Even if Cassia thought of this when making skis, he deliberately made the area of ​​the skis as large as possible, but still did not see any effect.

The speed of the journey has improved a lot at this time, and Cassia and the other two ensigns are also full of energy. The three took turns to lead the way in the snow, saving a lot of energy, and even faster than ordinary veterans who used simple snowboards to drive.

At this moment, Xuefeng has officially stood in front of them. I can't see the whole picture under the snow clouds when I look up. You need to look up to see the snow-white half of the mountainside and the ridges of snow, like rushing waves.

The view from the front of a huge mountain is completely blocked, only the mountain that rises like a wall. The magnificent momentum naturally exudes, pressing down from the top of the head, making people's heartbeat slightly accelerate. Cassia and the others stopped and looked over, sighing for a long time before they got into the white snow again. The combat uniforms on them also turned them white, and soon they couldn't distinguish the difference between snow and themselves.

In the evening, I found a hidden place to rest. Because it is very close to the area of ​​Xuefeng, I also divided time into burning solid fuel for heating at night, and avoided exposing my position as much as possible.

The next day, there was a breeze and the snow was a bit smaller, and it changed from a big blizzard to a normal blizzard. After one night, the snow also dropped by one layer and became stronger. The skis have been improved overnight by Cassia and other dexterous people, and are more suitable in this environment.

At dawn, they left the resting place, and after judging their location based on the map and the compass, they hurried towards the meeting place originally set by Major Barron.

Not far from them, about three hours or so, you can get there.
