Wouldn't it be even more dangerous for Platoon Leader Hao to be alone?!
The little soldier shouted loudly:
"Platoon leader! Tie up the safety rope. I won't go down. I'll wait for you here!"
Although he knew his own limitations, if he continued to climb up under such circumstances, he would definitely hold Platoon Leader Hao back.
But if he was still here, if something really happened to Platoon Leader Hao, he would be falling behind him, so he would not fall directly to the ground from a high altitude without any protection.
But the stone shouted to him seriously:
"Hurry down! Find a safe place and wait for me! This is an order!"
"Yes! Platoon Leader!"
The young communications soldier didn't dare to disobey. He bit his lower lip, pulled up the safety rope around his waist and began to slowly slide down.
Shitou no longer hesitated, turned around and started climbing up.
He must hurry!
Even if lightning really strikes Leigong Rock, he must send out the location of the camp before that!
The heavy rain pounded on Stone, so hard that he could hardly open his eyes.
The higher he climbed, the stronger the wind became. Each step he took was more difficult than the previous one. The smooth stone wall became steeper and it became harder and harder to find a place to gain leverage. However, he still gritted his teeth and persisted to move forward.
The young soldier, who had already safely slid down to the bottom of the rock, looked at the determined back of the stone high up, his eyes became hot and he could no longer hold back his tears.
At this moment, Platoon Leader Hao's figure was as small as an ant. He braved the storm and moved forward with heavy loads in the endless darkness intertwined with lightning and thunder.
After a while, the stone climbed up the distance of two boulders, and the radio equipment behind him finally made a clear "beep" sound again.
To him, this moment was more beautiful than the sound of nature.
He quickly found a good position, stabilized his body, and prepared to move the radio equipment in front of him. Before setting off, the communications soldier had taught him how to send position signals. He only needed to press a few keys to successfully complete the task.
As he was carefully adjusting his position, he didn't notice that several lightning bolts were flashing across the sky and were approaching.
The young soldier hid in a yellow mud cave in a low-lying area, listening to the deafening thunder rumbling in his ears one after another. The sound was like a war drum beating violently in his ears. The thunder became louder and louder, and each thunder seemed to break the eardrum, making his heart beat violently with the thunder, and his heart became more and more uneasy.
Why is the thunder getting louder?
He looked worriedly at the sky covered with dark clouds like a black tide. His vision was completely blocked by the dense rain, and he could not see the figure of Platoon Leader Hao on Leigong Rock at all.
Suddenly, a huge bolt of lightning cut through the darkness, twisting its body wildly like a ferocious golden snake, and struck the isolated Leigong Rock from the air at an extremely fast speed.
A startling loud bang exploded on Leigong Rock. In a flash, one could only vaguely see the stone wall of Leigong Rock being struck by flames!
"Platoon leader—"
......
The huge noise of lightning striking Leigong Rock was seen by everyone in the refuge area. The people in Anfeng Town whispered to each other:
"Look, look! The thunder has struck Leigong Rock again!"
"It's so scary, even scarier than when I saw it in town!"
"I don't know what happened to those two soldiers. I hope nothing happened to them..."
Ma Jun looked towards Leigong Rock with a serious face while holding a telescope. The strong flash of light that hit the rock was soon drowned in the darkness, as if nothing had happened.
No matter how carefully he looked, he could not make out whether there were two stone figures on Leigong Rock.
At this time, Liu Jincai was leading several soldiers to build a temporary shelter for Li Yuan and his companions. Who knew that before it was completed, the sporadic drizzle suddenly turned into heavy rain that poured down like a waterfall, soaking everyone to the bone.
Li Yuan resisted the urge to curse and said to Liu Jincai:
"Captain! It's raining so hard, should we go back and take shelter first?"
They were not prisoners and were already angry about being treated differently. Now they were standing under the tree in the rain for nothing. How could Li Yuan bear this?
Before Liu Jincai could speak, his young soldier, who was also hot-tempered, immediately shouted:
"It's because you guys acted on your own and came into contact with animal carcasses contaminated with bacteria that we're isolating you from the public. How can you go back now?!"
"Our company commander is here in the rain to help you set up a awning, and you're still clamoring to go back and hide. Do you still have any conscience?!"
Soldiers attach the most importance to discipline, and what they hate most are those who do not abide by discipline in the team, because such people not only affect themselves, but also others. They are simply the bad apples in the team!
If it weren't for the difference in their identities, if Li Yuan was also a soldier, he would have been pulled out and beaten by him!
Li Yuan's face turned red after being yelled at by the young soldier. He thought Liu Jincai would stand up and criticize him, but Liu Jincai acted as if he didn't hear anything and just told the soldiers to speed up the construction.
Li Yuan's lackey, the crew cut, saw his boss being humiliated and immediately stood up and said,
"Why are we the only ones quarantined? Obviously, Dali is also..."
Unexpectedly, before he could finish his words, Li Yuan slapped him on the back.
His heart trembled, and he quickly stopped talking. Seeing that no one noticed what he had just said, he quietly turned around and asked Li Yuan:
"Boss, Dali obviously had the most contact, so why isn't he isolated? We're the only ones left out here suffering in the rain!"
Li Yuan looked at him as if he were an idiot and said in a low voice:
"Are you stupid? If we're all isolated, who's going to get you meat at night? If you don't want to eat, turn him over!"
The man with the crew cut nodded repeatedly as if he suddenly understood something. He was so focused on feeling dissatisfied that he had forgotten about this matter.
Li Yuan pulled the corners of his mouth and grinned maliciously:
"Why rush? Let him rest for a few days. Once the flood is over, I'll slowly settle the score with him!"
I'm still a little worried:
"Brother, we're all isolated now. Will that guy still obediently come and get us meat tonight? Do you want to think of a way to threaten him again?"
"snort."
Li Yuan snorted disdainfully:
"Don't worry, a coward like Wu Dali doesn't need us to do anything, and he wouldn't dare disobey us."
"Besides, do you think he's a good guy? A gambler who even lost his parents' house to an underground gambling den to pay off his debts. He made a trip last night and easily got back a lamb. Maybe he's itching to get one right now!"
"Once this rotten gambler gets a taste of success, he'll never stop! He'll just think he's been blessed by God. Yesterday he had a sheep, today he might want a cow!"
