The strongest rocket soldier

Chapter 849 Rushing to the Mountain Fire Area
The car was still on the road, just after turning a corner, I saw billowing thick smoke slanting to one side along the direction of the wind above the top of the hill ahead.

"Front, hurry up!" The test company commander in the co-pilot's seat shouted.

Looking at the thick smoke billowing from the top of the mountain, Ding Xiaojun concluded that the fire must be very large, and judging from the area of ​​the thick smoke, the burning area would not be small.

In the past, Ding Xiaojun also participated in the front line rushing to the fire scene to participate in rescue operations, but it was a fire on the floor in the city. Such a fire must not compare with the current forest fire.

"There is no way ahead." The test company commander on the co-pilot shouted.

When the company commander of the test company shouted, Ding Xiaojun had already seen the situation ahead. He saw a row of private cars parked on the road ahead, and a striking warning sign was parked behind their cars.

Obviously, these cars parked in the middle of the road must have been stopped here because of the Yazui Mountain disaster. This also fully shows that they have basically rushed to the fire outbreak area at this time.

Ding Xiaojun slowed down the speed of the car and looked at both sides of the road. Soon, his eyes were fixed, and as soon as he turned the steering wheel, the car rushed from the side of the road to the sloping field with weeds and grass. As soon as the direction was turned, the car drove towards the mountains.

Chen Guanying's car was following closely behind. The driver saw the technical battalion in front of him and drove up the mountain directly, and followed without thinking.

Soon, the two cars turned on the bumping mode. There is no road in the mountains, so it is naturally difficult to drive, with potholes, but fortunately, the off-road capability of military vehicles is strong.

However, the other two military vehicles behind are in a dilemma. Although the chassis of the bus and Iveco is much higher than that of a car, if they drive up the mountain like the two military trucks in front, don't worry about it. , it must be passable, and there is a high probability that you will get stuck in the mountains.

For the situation of the two cars behind, the people in front will not think about it, because they have already seen the fire ahead.

The fire was spreading to the depths along the direction of the wind. On the big green trees that were originally still green, the fire was burning and accompanied by thick smoke. The flames were not upward, but obliquely in the direction of the wind.

On the trunk, there are cracks from time to time, and then a burst of flames suddenly burst out. It is the resin or air inside the tree, which is expanded by high temperature. At the moment the trunk splits, it is subjected to internal pressure. Out of the tree trunk.

What a big fire, the current fire is so terrifying in front of tiny human beings, at least, even Ding Xiaojun is a little scared.

"Get out of the car! Get out of the car!" The commander of the test company opened the door and got out of the car the moment the car stopped. He quickly walked to the rear of the car and shouted to the soldiers in the car.

The soldiers in charge of the battalion also got out of the car. Looking at the billowing fire and thick smoke on the mountain, the soldiers in Zaiyang couldn't help but gasped.

At this time, they were still far away from Huo Yang. The reason why they were not driving forward was because a stream appeared in front of them, blocking their way forward.

The stream is not deep, and it should not even be able to submerge the chassis of the car, but there are a lot of big rocks in the stream, some of which are as tall as half a person, and this is the main obstacle blocking the progress of the car.

The stream is very wide, only nearly ten meters. There are no tall vegetation on both sides of the stream, but the weeds are very dense. Because of the stream, and the wind direction is not in this direction, naturally there is no need to worry about the fire. Just in case, the car is not parked far away from the river.

"Everyone, get your towels wet. If you're not afraid of catching a cold, get your clothes wet too." Ding Xiaojun shouted to the soldiers behind him, grabbed his combat shovel, and rushed to the stream, where he jumped In the river water, his trousers were soon soaked. He took out his towel, held it in his hand, got wet in the river water, picked it up and wrung it again, and covered his mouth and nose. Immediately he felt it was difficult to breathe.

He took off his shirt again, took a trip in the river, and walked to the opposite bank while twisting.

The soldiers behind followed suit. They also had basic knowledge of firefighting, and they also knew to cover their mouths and noses with wet towels to prevent inhaling too much carbon monoxide and endangering their own safety.

As soon as he arrived at the river bank, Ding Xiaojun found a brightly colored reptile crawling on a stone on the river bank. From its triangular head shape, it can be guessed that this is a venomous snake species.

"Be careful when going ashore. If necessary, use the combat shovel in your hand to hit the dense grass. There should be a lot of poisonous insects here." After Ding Xiaojun finished speaking, he pointed to the big rock that was leisurely basking in the sun with the combat shovel. The viper of the sun.

Many of the soldiers present had never seen poisonous snakes, and some of them were born with a natural sense of fear of this kind of reptiles. They followed Ding Xiaojun's advice and used the combat shovel in their hands to slap the snakes before moving forward. The grass in front of me is not sure whether it is safe or not.

In the southern region, the probability of poisonous snakes appearing in the mountains is much higher than in the northern mountainous areas. The humid and hot environment in the south is more suitable for the survival of snakes. Yes, Ding Xiaojun has seen many snakes in the camp in the mountains for many years, but they are like stones. Looking at the brightly colored poisonous snake, Ding Xiaojun didn't feel how scary the snakes he had seen before were.

Ding Xiaojun was really sure, and when he went ashore, he saw another snake of the same kind appearing on the side of a large right rock. From its protruding abdomen, one could guess that it had just hunted for food not long ago. , It has not come and digested.

Snakes like this that have just eaten an inch move very slowly. It can be said that it is easy to hunt or capture at this time, but Ding Xiaojun did not take any action when they came out. They came out to fight the fire, not Survive in the wild.

He walked away from the side far away, and the soldiers behind him also said that at this time it was not a threat, but if it could be avoided, it was better to avoid it far away.

After crossing the river bank, the speed of the soldiers was very fast. They quickly reached 30 meters away from the outer edge of the fire.

Soldiers from the two battalions gathered together, and no one had any confidence in the firefighting work that came. Any natural disaster would be a scourge to small human beings.

What to do next, Ding Xiaojun was also in a dilemma, he couldn't help looking at the battalion commander who was in charge of the camp next to him.
