The alcohol stove has been lit for a while, generating restaurant steam. The steam spurted out from the small hole at the stove mouth and was ignited, greatly increasing the intensity of the fire.
Zheng Junshan couldn't help but nodded, but compared to the alcohol stove, Zheng Junshan was obviously more concerned about Yi Wenbin, Liu Daxiang, and Xiao Rui who were coming with him.
Zheng Junshan frowned, pulled Xiao Rui aside, and asked in a low voice: "What happened? Looking at your expression, I'm afraid something happened?"
"Alas..." Xiao Rui sighed and said with a wry smile: "It didn't happen, I just let the other party play a trick on me.
Early this morning, the guy behaved abnormally. He went out sneakily and wandered around. During this period, he conducted counter-detections many times, but after going around in a circle, he returned to his work place.
It was only then that we realized that we were afraid that we were being tricked, and thinking that we might have noticed something, I would come back first and check him again after a while."
Hearing this, Zheng Junshan asked, "Have you been exposed? Or has the other party already taken care of the matter?"
"It won't happen..." Xiao Rui shook his head and explained: "The two people we are following this time are newly sent. Although they are from wild backgrounds, they are stronger than me in some aspects, so they won't be exposed.
As for whether the other party has done something, I am not sure, but it is unlikely. After all, the abnormality is very conspicuous, as if it was done deliberately to test the situation."
"Well..." Zheng Junshan nodded and said, "I won't get involved in this matter. You can make your own judgment! We are short of manpower here, so it's good to come.
You leave these two people here, and you go find the captain yourself and let him arrange things for you! I don't need you here for the time being."
"Okay..." Xiao Rui nodded, chatted with Zheng Junshan for a few more words, and then left.
Yi Wenbin and Liu Daxiang, under the guidance of Wang Shoufei, have begun to adapt to the camouflage clothes and conduct some simple stealth training.
Zheng Junshan saw that it would take some time and nothing happened for the time being, so he returned to the burning alcohol lamp and started checking.
Finally, he took Wang Shoufei's lunch box, took most of the box of water, and burned it on the alcohol stove. The alcohol stove was very hot and the water was boiling in a short time. Zheng Junshan nodded with confidence.
The alcohol stove burns very long. The small cup of alcohol in the alcohol stove can burn for about an hour, which is enough to make a simple meal in the wild.
After spending half an hour, Wang Shoufei gave Liu Daxiang and Liu Daxiang a brief training, then packed up the equipment and got on the Li family's small steamer.
The small steamer stopped at the small waterway by the river yesterday. Wang Shoufei and the four of them put on their equipment and took Li Xiaorong off the boat.
Li Xiaorong walked along the edge of the reeds on the river bank, firing his slingshot as he walked, flying waterfowl along the river. Wang Shoufei and the other four wore camouflage uniforms and carried equipment through the reeds.
The four Wang Shoufei also encountered villagers on the way, but fortunately they managed to avoid them all with their camouflage uniforms and were not discovered.
It took them nearly half an hour. Wang Shoufei signaled the people following him to stop, and quietly moved to the edge of the reeds, observed it, and selected a place with denser reeds next to it as an observation point.
After placing the equipment they brought, the four of them tiptoed to the surveillance point. However, they did not start taking action. Instead, they disguised themselves and lurked in place.
Yi Wenbin quietly observed the surrounding situation and asked in a low voice: "Brother Fei, this is not the best observation point, nor is it the densest place with the most reeds and the most suitable place to hide. Why did you choose this place?"
Wang Shoufei heard this and explained in a low voice: "It's not that what looks best is what's best for us. You can see it, and the other party can also see it.
The best place will also receive the most attention from the other party, which is not conducive to hiding. On the contrary, this kind of inconspicuous place is more suitable for us.
Besides, when choosing a place, you not only need to consider observation and hiding, but also other factors. Remember the damp place you just passed by?
Water is seeping out there, and the land is sandy. By digging a small hole, you can get a safer water source, which is convenient for hiding for a long time.
Furthermore, the reed marsh behind us is relatively sparse, which can also provide space for our daily activities to prevent the reeds from swaying at the slightest movement and thus avoid being exposed."
"That's it! I understand..."
"Okay, Li Xiaorong is about to approach the coal station, so hide first!"
"Okay, Brother Fei..." Yi Wenbin responded, and then silence fell. There was only the sound of the river wind blowing through the reeds, and the occasional sound of slingshots and birds flapping in front of him.
In a room on the second floor of the media station, yesterday's Captain Chen frowned as he watched the birds fluttering in the reeds on the river bank and the reeds swaying from time to time.
Seeing these movements getting closer and closer to Jiangwan Coal Station, Captain Chen stood up and left the room, and happened to meet Manager Sun who had just left the room.
When the two saw each other, they were both stunned. Steward Sun took the lead and said, "Captain Chen, I saw something happening on the river ridge outside and wanted to take a look. What are you doing?"
"I've seen you too, let's come together!" After Captain Chen finished speaking, he walked out directly without waiting for Manager Sun to speak.
Manager Sun originally wanted to speak first and tell Captain Chen not to interfere, but to his surprise, the other party pretended not to hear anything and ignored him.
There was no other way. Manager Sun had no choice but to follow quickly and rushed to the river bank. The reeds in front of him swayed for a while, and Li Xiaorong got out of it, holding a water bird in his hand.
Seeing this, Manager Sun took the lead and stepped forward to ask, "Why are you here again? You scared us. We thought it was some kind of beast!"
Hearing this, Li Xiaorong was stunned for a moment, and then said with a look of disbelief: "Don't lie to me, how could there be wild beasts in this place?"
"Why not? I can also lie to you. A group of wild dogs came here before, but they almost killed someone! Otherwise, we would have come to check."
There are wild dogs, but Captain Chen can see that Steward Sun is just telling lies, so why would they just come here empty-handed?
But Captain Chen was relieved to see that he was just a young man, but he still pretended to be peeing and checked a few places.
When Manager Sun saw this, he ignored it and said to Li Xiaorong with a straight face: "Young man from the Li family, why are you here again? I remember your home is on the edge of the city."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Don't mention it..." Li Xiaorong said with anger and dissatisfaction: "When I got home, I had a few words with my dad on the way, and he said
I wasted money on a slingshot and got beat up.
Hush, he didn’t waste money on drinking and buying meat! Why didn’t he say it when he was eating? It was obviously an excuse!
Today he dragged me away on the boat and even talked about me in front of a bunch of people. I couldn't get angry, so I took advantage of him to stop the boat in the village below and sneak away.
I had nothing to do, so I came here to play with the slingshot. Yesterday I saw a lot of big fish in the water over there, and I wanted to come over and try out the new equipment."
After saying that, Li Xiaorong took out the dart slingshot from his bag with a proud look on his face, and said in a show off: "I spent all my pocket money over the years to buy this.
This reel is the most expensive, and so is the line. It is made of silk. It is light and strong. It is said that it can pull up a fish weighing dozens of kilograms..."
Listening to Li Xiaorong's show off, and seeing Captain Chen returning without success, he interrupted Li Xiaorong, scolded him a few words, and then led him towards Jiangwan.
Listening to the sound getting further and further away, Yi Wenbin, who buried his head deeply, breathed a sigh of relief and raised his head. Cold sweat had already covered his forehead.
Because just now, the few points he thought were best for observation and concealment were all checked by the other party, and the nearest one was only dozens of meters away from them.
However, this distance is still very safe. This camouflage suit has allowed them to blend into the surrounding environment. As long as they are not in front of them, it is difficult to find problems.
On the other side of the river, on the other side of Xinjizhou, a member of the third team, carrying a sniper brought by Lin Mo, passed through the waterway on Xinjizhou and entered a small waterway on the island opposite Jiangwan Coal Station.
Inside, fishing there.
The two of them came to receive the message. After all, the whistle could not travel too far. This was a suitable hiding place in the surrounding area. If the message could not be transmitted, the boat would need to be rowed into the river.
Zheng Junshan continued to ride the small steamer and passed by the mouth of Jiangwan Waterway. Li Dayan "accidentally" saw Li Xiaorong, drove the boat in for a while, and started to curse from a distance.
After scolding for a while, at the urging of the passengers, Li Dayan told Li Xiaorong to go back to the downstream village in the afternoon and wait for him, and then he turned around and drove upstream.
On the shore of the river bay, next to Manager Sun, Li Xiaorong looked carefully at the water, curled his lips, raised his hand and pointed at a fish silhouette, which was a slingshot.
"Alas... I missed again. I was already aiming, so why can't I hit?" Li Xiaorong shook his head helplessly, shook the reel, and took back the dart.
At this moment, Manager Sun, who was watching with interest, asked with a smile: "You haven't fished before, have you?"
"No..." Li Xiaorong shook his head and said: "Although I run boats on the river, they are small steamers and fish rarely come close. Let alone fishing, I have never even caught a fish."
"Well, let me tell you something! Don't look where the fish is! Just hit it wherever you are. The water will interfere with your sight. The fish you see is not where you see it.
You have to aim a little lower. The deeper the fish is, the lower you have to aim so that you can hit it. As for how much lower, it depends on experience and I don’t know.”
Li Xiaorong was a little dubious when he heard it, but he happened to see another fish, so he took a closer look, and with a swish sound, the fish dart shot into the water.
"Plop...plop..." A force was transmitted to his hand. Li Xiaorong controlled the reel and pulled it back hard. The fish was pulled out of the water and flopped.
After a lot of effort, Li Xiaorong pulled the fish to the shore and picked it up. He found that it was a carp weighing four to five kilograms. The fish dart hit the belly of the fish and shot directly to the other side. Three movable barbs killed the fish.
stuck.
After Li Xiaorong took off the fish dart, Manager Sun mentioned the fish and said with a smile: "The fish was given to me. I will take care of your meals during the day."
Hearing this, Li Xiaorong thought about having no place to eat during the day, so he nodded helplessly and reluctantly watched Manager Sun leave with the fish.
But not long after, Li Xiaorong looked at the water again, searching for fish everywhere.
Outside the coal station, Manager Sun carried the fish and walked towards Captain Chen who continued to stare. He said with some dissatisfaction: "Captain Chen, are you a little too cautious?"
Captain Chen heard this and replied calmly: "Is it wrong to be cautious? We have been given repeated orders from above to act with caution in the near future."
"It's right to be cautious, but you wouldn't doubt a grown-up kid, right? To put it bluntly, he's just a playful kid.
And this is not like you running a boat, this is a fixed base. If something goes wrong with him, his parents will definitely come looking for him, and things may be even more troublesome then."
After Captain Chen listened, he was silent for a while, and finally turned back to the coal station. Manager Sun breathed a sigh of relief and sent the fish to the kitchen to let them cook it for him during the day.
In the reed marsh, Wang Shoufei breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that there was no movement at the coal station, and quietly returned to the reed marsh with the four of them and began to set up.
First, I found two slightly larger open spaces, and then took out a small bundle of bamboo from the equipment, about thirty centimeters long.
Wang Shoufei worked for a while, unfolding it like a telescopic fishing rod, took out the connectors, and assembled four of them together, and then took out the tent made of dark green tarpaulin. Once assembled, it took a short time to get it out.
Got two small tents.
Then he took the camouflage net and covered the small tent. Then he gently tied the surrounding reeds with ropes to camouflage the small tent underneath.
Li Laigeng dug a hole in the sand where water was seeping out. He found the water vein within five centimeters. He dug a little deeper and found dry reed leaves to cover it.
After completing the necessary preparations and carrying observation equipment, the four people lurked back and began to observe and monitor the coal station.
The two periscopes brought by Wang Shoufei allowed Yi Wenbin and Liu Daxiang to see more clearly. After all, they needed to get to know people, and they were only staying for one day.
After observing for a while, Li Laigeng watched Li Xiaorong catch another fish in the telescope, and whispered to Wang Shoufei: "Brother, do you think we can get some slingshots when we go back?"
"What are you doing with a slingshot? You're such a big man, you don't want to play with it, right?"
"No..." Li Laigeng denied it and explained: "In our wilderness survival training, we can't use guns, right? A slingshot is very good. There is no need to waste bullets, just look for stones."
"Hmm... that's fine. The operation is over. Let's go take a few back!"
The four of them were hiding among the reeds, staring at the camera, chatting in low voices without stopping.
"Brother, this guy is not simple at all! The performance he just performed showed no flaws at all."
"This is quite normal..." Yi Wenbin took over and said: "Although I am young, I have been sailing for a long time. When I enter the society, as long as I am more flexible, I can learn some things without a teacher.
When I was his age, I could still keep my face calm and my heart not jump into other people's pockets. I would pretend to be innocent when I was suspected and feel pitiful when I was discovered.
In the final analysis, just to survive, he had to adapt to this society at a young age. It's okay for him, at least he has his parents here."
Having said this, Yi Wenbin felt a little sad, but fortunately he recovered immediately and continued to stare at the camera carefully, but stopped talking.
The other three people also stopped talking and quietly clung to the reeds, looking for what they needed through the sighting equipment.
Wang Shoufei and Li Laigeng have made relatively smooth progress and have found several windows, which are suspected to be observation and warning points for the other party.
Yi Wenbin and the other two did not gain anything at all. Originally, the terrain here was almost the same as that of the coal station, and the windows of the other side were closed tightly, so there were not even a few people observed.
