The sound of "hiss~" was that Dichlorvos stuck out his tongue, trying to moisten his dry lips.
Fortunately, I prepared myself in advance to have a meal that I don’t know whether to describe as breakfast, lunch, dinner, or midnight snack:
A lump of fried noodles as big as a table tennis ball was squeezed hard by dichlorvos' palm.
As a result, as soon as his dry tongue touched the cracks on his lips, he instinctively sucked in a breath of cold air in pain.
Along with it, there was a burning thirst in the throat.
And the expression on his face, which was a little painful and crooked, was clearly visible on his face.
"What the hell! What kind of nonsense is this?" Dichlorvos finally cursed in his mouth, then put the fried noodles into a ball and put it back into the dry food bag.
He had given up on the idea of eating something, even if he calculated carefully, he had not eaten for more than 12 hours.
Distraught beyond words, Dichlorvos raised his wrist.
With the help of a dim oil lamp above my head, I glanced at the time on the antique watch above, and then just briefly calculated the time needed to persist until the end of this mission.
Dichlorvos sighed silently in his heart, and his mood became worse and worse.
The main reason is that the time at this moment is 2:46 in the afternoon of February 12th, which is when Chekov died in battle and Natasha took over as the commander of the Maozi team. A little more than two days passed.
In the past two days or so, the Nordic team has not given up its attack on the two highlands of 350.3 and Yanzuki Mountain.
But because in the first strong attack, they killed at least 5 people and seriously injured 3 people, which can be regarded as paying a huge price.
Therefore, facing this huge consumption, they have changed their tactics and turned into some new tactics that caused few casualties on their own side.
Specifically, it is roughly divided into the following points:
First, only seven or eight team members were dispatched at each time, and they acted as long-range snipers, mortar operators, and heavy machine gun operators.
The main force was to attack the two positions with the army as the main force.
Such attacks are basically launched during the day, often five or six times a day, or even more times.
Although every time, after paying the casualties of usually dozens or at most hundreds of people.
The attacks of these soldiers, which seemed to start but fizzle out, were repulsed by the defenders on the position. Each time, the casualties of the defenders on the position were not large.
But over time, it accumulates to a large amount, which continuously consumes the effective forces on the position.
At the same time, weapons, ammunition and other combat supplies were consumed in alarming quantities in the fierce battle; after more than two days of hard work, no one knew how many weapons were destroyed.
I don’t know how many Bobosha submachine guns, or the Type 50 submachine guns common among compatriots, were scrapped due to barrel deformation due to long-term firing.
Fortunately, Zhongzhou and Maozi Team, the two main personnel, had accumulated a large amount of weapons and ammunition in their space equipment.
It’s hard to say whether these spare weapons can last until the end, but at least so far, there is no need to worry about this problem.
Second, although once night came, the soldiers had already been psychologically affected by the ZY army's night fighting ability some time ago.
It's okay to let them rely on defenses at night, but it's impossible to let them take the initiative to attack at night.
Therefore, usually at night, the United Guo Army will basically not launch a ground attack.
However, the above situation does not mean that everyone on the position can relax and spend the night safely.
God knows! After being strengthened by the grandson of the system in private.
Now on the battlefield where Highland 350.3 is located, how much force the United Guo Army has deployed, and what an astonishing firepower configuration it has.
Anyway, once night comes, there is still a gap between attacks during the day.
Combined with Guo Jun's long-range artillery and aircraft in the sky, they never stopped bombing.
There were even snipers from the Nordic team, ordinary snipers leading a large number of soldiers, waiting like vultures for the target to appear, and then launched an attack.
This point is actually the most fatal for the Z army.
Compared with the all-consuming attack during the day, it gave Hu Biao and others an even greater headache.
Why? Under such a situation, the position could not receive any support from Battalion Commander Chen and others behind the foot of the mountain.
No personnel, weapons, ammunition, or even water could be delivered.
Under the supervision of the observation posts served by the strong men of the Nordic team, every ZY soldier who tried to rush up the mountain would be discovered by them at the first opportunity.
Then, either deadly sniper bullets or heavy machine gun fire greeted these figures coming up the mountain.
It was even a direct covering bombardment, which fell directly, killing the soldiers carrying those buckets and supplies one by one.
After this situation happened several times in a row, Hu Biao had to take the initiative to stop Battalion Commander Chen and others and sent people to risk their lives to bring water up to the position.
And every drop of water on hand now is extremely precious to everyone on the battlefield.
You know! Hu Biao and the others even prepared several rolls of toilet paper in their space equipment; but for drinking water, a more critical material, they only had a kettle they carried with them.
Let them do such a thing, in fact, I don't blame them for being careless.
Mainly in the system mall, which claims to have all kinds of products.
There is 15 liters of clean water for sale in a metal bucket, which is said to be an accessory for the water-cooled Maxim heavy machine gun; the price of each bucket is only 0.1 points, which is quite cheap.
As long as 10 system points are spent, not to mention drinking, it is enough for all members of the team to take a bath.
Therefore, not only did the Central Continent team not carry a large amount of clean water.
Even the Maozi family basically just brought a little vodka in their own kettle.
Then when they wanted to exchange it, they found water, alcohol, and even the kind of alcohol that Hu Biao used to wash his hands before opening the box in the system mall.
At a glance now, the icon is all gray, indicating that it is in a non-redeemable state.
At that time, Hu Biao and others were full of irritation. After questioning the system, the scammer gave this statement:
The above situation is one of the related changes after the system adjusted this mission to the super team battle mode.
According to the underlying operating rules of the system, he can choose not to notify such unimportant details.
Therefore, he cannot be blamed for the above situation at all. He can only be blamed on the personnel of the Zhongzhou and Maozi teams for their own negligence.
What the heck! The types of supplies in the system mall are absolutely massive.
Even many people in the Zhongzhou team will often be like my mother playing Duoduo when nothing happens.
I often paint Gundam, top bloodline, and equipment on it. I drool over it but don’t buy it, and I can’t afford it. But in this process, who will pay attention to the abnormality in the cooling water at any time.
The more critical situation is that the Maozi family team has experienced it more times.
I have never encountered an example similar to the one above, so I can say that I was completely unprepared.
In short, everyone may not care about water, but when the so-called "source of life" becomes tense, the situation of the defenders on the position becomes extremely bad.
Because everyone knows that a normal person can live for 7 days just by drinking water and not eating.
But there is no water to drink, no matter whether you have food or not, you will die in 3 days.
As for fried noodles, if you want to swallow it without water, the process is very difficult...
******
Of course, the current situation on the 350.3 Highlands has not yet reached the point where there is no water at all.
However, after Hu Biao, Battalion Commander Cao, Natasha and others held a small meeting, they were all gathered together, and while priority was given to the wounded, others could still get some.
No! Hu Biao on the side also sighed after seeing the appearance of dichlorvos.
He knew that although there was not much water left, it could be said that one sip would be a sip less; it was also time to give it to everyone under his command, otherwise it would seriously affect everyone's physical and mental health.
For this purpose, he took off a GI M1942 kettle from his waist pole.
I held it in my hand and shook it gently, feeling that there was probably a little more than one-third of the water left in it.
After estimating how much each person could drink, he told the dichlorvos next to him:
"Drink some water, but don't use your mouth directly. Remember to use the bottle cap to drink half the bottle. After drinking, pass it around and tell them that each person can only drink half the bottle."
You must also use a lid to drink water. It’s not like Hu Biao was still stinking and didn’t pay attention to hygiene habits.
But it is a very helpless reality. Only such an approach can ensure that everyone under his command can have a fair drink of water, even including himself.
But after experiencing the initial excitement of finally being able to drink some water to soothe my smoking throat.
However, Dichlorvos shook his head with difficulty and said: "Forget it! We haven't reached the limit yet, and everyone should be able to hold on a little longer, so we'll talk about this when the water is critical."
Mainly because he almost reached out to take the kettle wrapped in canvas, which was far more attractive than a peerless beauty.
It was only when I saw the mottled blood stains that had turned into dark brown on the canvas kettle cover that wrapped the stainless steel kettle.
Suddenly, Dichlorvos's heart twitched, and he changed his words and said the above sentence.
Because last night, in view of the fact that the water from the mountain could not be brought up and there was not much water in the tunnel, everyone made a decision after discussing it for a while.
On the side of the Zhongzhou team, a black Chinese doctor with "Elementary Elf Bloodline" was dispatched.
Team Maozi, on the other hand, set out to make Androv with the "Elementary Vampire Bloodline".
There were a total of two members with agile blood, leading four ZY soldiers. They took advantage of the darkness and the interval between the night bombardment to sneak out of the tunnel.
As for the target, it is a small mountain depression about 50 meters away from the 350.3 heights.
Because the warehouse manager's good eyesight and long-term observation revealed that there was a ball of snow the size of a bathtub, which had survived the indiscriminate bombardment of the soldiers.
Although now, some sand has been splashed on the surface of the snow, making it look a bit dirty. There has long been no such thing as being as white as snow.
But no matter what, it means that it is some snow water that can save lives after melting.
With everyone's expectations, a group of six people each carried several water bottles and set off.
In this process, in order to drink water happily and for the safety of his comrades, dichlorvos could be said to have prayed to all the gods he knew in his heart.
He promised that as long as everything goes smoothly during this operation, when he returns from dichlorvos, he will be generously presented with pork head meat, incense, paper money, etc.
Unfortunately, cruel facts prove that these feudal and superstitious things mentioned above are of no use at all.
Because the above six people had gone out for more than two or three minutes at most, the faces of the group of them who were in the tunnel at that time changed drastically.
It was a huge sound coming from the air as a number of artillery shells streaked through the air and hit this side.
And it wasn't just one or two cannonballs, but at least six cannonballs that hit him simultaneously in a very short period of time.
There is no doubt that even when the Black Chinese Medicine Doctor, Androv and the others set out, they acted as carefully as possible and crawled a little bit, but they were still discovered by the observation post of the Nordic team.
Then, they called the artillery group at the rear and started covering this side with artillery fire.
Yes, artillery coverage.
Together with Guo Jun, because of the existence of a big family like Uncle Sam, the abundance of various supplies is simply outrageous. It does not mean that it will be over after just one round of shelling.
It was just a large-scale bombardment, a rhythm that had just begun.
I heard the loud sound of cannons reaching my ears outside the tunnel, and the sound of sand falling above my head.
Including everyone in the tunnel, their hearts dropped at this moment.
At this moment, they couldn't even rush out to save others; they could only hope that their comrades outside would come back alive.
Finally, after more than a minute, the black Chinese medicine doctor and Androv burst out with the power of blood and rushed into the tunnel with blood stains all over their bodies.
Most of the blood stains on their bodies came from the body of a Z army soldier they were carrying behind them.
The black doctor and Androv did not leave their comrades and return alone; instead, they each took a wounded person with them, hoping to keep them alive.
As for the other two ZY troops, they died immediately after the shelling.
It is a pity that before rushing into the tunnel, the two Zy army soldiers had lost all their breath due to their serious injuries.
One of them was selected because of his thinness, flexibility and other characteristics, so he is also a childish little warrior; even if he has lost his life, it is still in his instinct, holding a soldier-style M1942 steel kettle in his arms.
At that time, Dichlorvos clearly remembered that Hu Biao had to use a lot of strength to take down the kettle.
All in all, after a total of four lives had been sacrificed, and the snow that had been brought back melted away, there were about three and a half jugs of water.
The smaller half of the pot is the pot on Hu Biao's body...
After rejecting Hu Biao's offer to drink water, Dichlorvos stood up and walked towards the other end of the tunnel, which was now much wider after repeated expansions.
The target is a pile of cans in the corner, covered with wooden boards from some ammunition boxes.
Just from the strong smell emanating from these things, you can tell what is inside: the urine of everyone here.
The reason for this is that although some of these things have been eliminated, they are still the last resort for everyone.
When we really have no water, we can only drink these things.
The reason why there was a note on it was simply because Hu Biao, a stickler for cupping, believed that if he drank his own products without being dirty, he would not have such a big psychological burden.
If dichlorvos comes now, I will take a bite because I have basically no other options.
The problem is that once he got here, he really couldn't do it.
No! It should be that you can't keep your mouth shut, but if you don't keep your mouth shut, the burning feeling in your throat is quite uncomfortable, isn't it?
Fortunately, Dichlorvos' predicament was rescued by the United Guo Army, but I won't thank them for it.
Because at this moment, the warehouse manager, who was lying at the entrance of the tunnel and acting as an observation post, shouted loudly: "Old Hu, they are coming up again. It doesn't look like they are feinting~"
After hearing this, Hu Biao quickly shouted:
"Hurry, those who can move immediately enter the position and prepare to fight~"
Under such an order, no matter what they were doing in the tunnel, or whether they were feeling uncomfortable for whatever reason, all their discomforts seemed to disappear.
Including dichlorvos, it seems like I can't feel thirsty.
Helper picked up a box of grenades from the position beside him, and followed the others towards the outside of the position.
After rushing into the position, because it was broad daylight, dichlorvos could be clearly seen several kilometers away.
Another large group of soldiers also headed towards the Yanyue Mountain position, killing them all the way.
Even at the very front, there were several tanks moving slowly.
"Compared to our place, Yanyue Mountain must be more difficult, right? I wonder how long the brothers above can persist."
Thinking of this little bit of dichlorvos, I thought in my heart...
