Chapter 247 Abandoned well near the plane wreckage
"Germans are indeed prone to lunatics, so do you know where there is water?" As Wei Ran asked, he secretly added in his mind, "Just like there are many fagots in your country who like to be troublemakers.
"Will you let me go?" Harry began to talk about the conditions.
"I can't decide this matter," Wei Ran replied truthfully, "but at least I can help you keep the secret."
After thinking for a long time, Harry finally nodded and replied in a low voice, "Before I was captured, I was chatting with my teammates in the same reconnaissance vehicle and said that in the summer, a British fighter jet crashed nearby.
, but the pilot of the fighter jet persisted at the crash site for half a month before being rescued alive.
So if we can find the location of the crashed fighter jet, that is the only place where water is likely to be found. After all, if we want to persist in the summer desert for half a month, it is enough to prove that there must be water nearby. But the problem now is, I
Not sure if I can find it."
"Can you find a way back?" Wei Ran asked in a different direction, "whether it's to Gubi Well or back to your British position."
Harry spread his hands and said, "I'm just a radio operator. Even before I was captured, I didn't pay attention to where the car went. But I'm sure my teammates were not joking. There must be a crashed fighter jet nearby."
"It's a pity that we don't have a radio." Wei Ran sighed regretfully.
"Where should we go next?" Carlo, who was responsible for driving the three-wheeled motorcycle, asked loudly, tilting his head.
Hearing this, Harry cautiously waited for Wei Ran to say something random in "English" that he didn't understand at all, and then raised his finger and pointed in the direction.
Driven by Carlo, the three-wheeled motorcycle ran on the soft sand for nearly an hour, and finally, at Harry's signal, it stopped near a stone mountain that was two or three stories high.
"Is there water here?" Carlo asked excitedly before he even had time to get out of the car.
Wei Ran, who had secretly communicated with Harry before parking the car, shook his head, "We'll wait here until dawn."
Hearing this, Carlo was immediately discouraged and listlessly took down the canvas from the cargo compartment. With Harry's help, he used a tricycle to set up a low tent that was barely big enough for three people to lie down.
While Carlo was pouring fuel into a can full of sand and preparing to light a bonfire, Wei Ran pointed to the low mountain not far away and said, "I'll go up and take a look. You should be careful."
"Be careful too," Carlo said while throwing the lit match into the can.
Holding a simple torch made of a crate and a canvas dipped in fuel, Wei Ran carefully climbed up the stone mountain, and then turned his back to the two people at the bottom of the mountain and raised the telescope he had just taken out of the metal book.
However, even at the end of the field of view in the telescope, he did not see any fire around him. In other words, they were still very far away from the battlefield and the positions of both warring parties.
After putting away the telescope and returning to the bottom of the mountain, Carlo had already cooked a large lunch box full of canned beef and broken biscuits with a bottle of red wine.
However, even if he mixed half a can of tomatoes, the olive oil and a small piece of butter that Italians like into it, this steaming paste with the smell of wine is really not very delicious. But at least, these vomiting
Something like that can keep them warm.
After filling their stomachs randomly, the three of them shared another bottle of wine, then put out the bonfire, closed the canvas tent door, each wrapped in a piece of canvas and fell into silence and worry about whether they could find water.
At 1:50 in the morning, Wei Ran, who was in charge of the first night shift, once again climbed up the short mountain with a torch, took out his telescope and pointed it in the direction they came from.
While he was waiting patiently, at exactly two o'clock, an imperceptible light flashed in the night sky that the telescope was aimed at. If nothing else, it was a tracer or incendiary bomb fired by Pell's anti-aircraft gun. At the same time,
It is also the only beacon that guides them back smoothly.
Putting away the telescope, Wei Ran returned to the foot of the mountain, woke up the snoring Carlo, and returned the watch to him.
Taking the watch, Carlo rubbed his face, got out of the tent wrapped in canvas, and sat down on the three-wheeler.
When they finished another shift at four in the morning, Carlo and Harry woke up one after another. The three of them ate the same Mussolini butt meat stewed in red wine as last night, and then they packed up the tent and climbed up to the third floor.
Wheel motorcycle.
This time, Carlo left the driving job directly to Harry, while he sat on the cargo bed and stood guard with a submachine gun. As for Wei Ran, he curled up on the folded canvas to catch up on his sleep.
I don’t know how long they ran, but when Wei Ran was woken up by the exclamation and got up, the three-wheeled motorcycle had already stopped, and on a sand dune not far from them, there was a plane with its tail disconnected, lying on it.
The Hurricane fighter jet is missing one wing!
Harry, who was in charge of driving the motorcycle, turned around and nodded to Wei Ran, the meaning he wanted to express was self-evident.
"Carlo, you cover me. Harry!"
After Wei Ran finished speaking, he waved to Harry and led him cautiously towards the wreckage of the plane not far away. Behind him, Carlo had also raised the submachine gun in his hand.
Leading Harry to the edge of the plane wreckage, before Wei Yan could speak, Harry whispered, "This is it, it must be here! What we have to do now is to find a way to find out who the pilot was who survived that time."
Where did you get the fresh water?"
Wei Ran glanced at the obviously bombed fighter cockpit, thought for a moment and said, "Harry, let's split up and search nearby."
"Aren't you worried about me running away?" After Harry said this, he realized that there was no need to ask. There was a vast desert nearby. Even if he was allowed to run, where could he go?
"Pay attention to safety," Wei Ran said, turned around and climbed up a sand dune not far away.
Looking around, there was nothing special except for half of a reflective wing lying quietly on the sand not far away and half of the tail lying further away.
Turning his head and looking at Harry, who was already walking towards the tail of the plane, Wei Ran ran down the dune, stepping on the soft sand towards the particularly conspicuous wing a hundred meters away.
Unfortunately, this wing seems to have just been carried here by the wind. There is nothing under the wing. There is no clue related to water on the wing itself. On the contrary, Harry in the distance is standing at this time.
Next to the wreckage of the plane's tail, he waved wildly at him.
He quickly ran towards Harry's position. Before Weiyan could stop, the latter pointed to a piece of writing on the tail of the plane and said, "It says that there is an abandoned cave five kilometers east of the wreckage of the plane.
well."
"Let's go over and take a look!" Wei Ran said, and immediately turned around and ran to the other side of the dune.
