Fortunately, they all have goggles. At least they don't have to worry about the emergence of snow blindness. However, the snow in the Gobi desert is not so thick. It's not boundless and white. In many places, the yellow sand, gravel and soil are exposed.

No matter what they think, they will soon reach their destination. There are already large supply vehicles below here, which will replenish the helicopter with fuel.

After landing, their mission was displayed directly on their tablet. They had to walk 180 kilometers to the east by North before they could reach their destination.

After getting off the helicopter, the helicopter began to replenish fuel. Yang Rui didn't talk nonsense, but directly began to move forward.

When they walked into the wind and snow, they realized that it was a huge problem for them to forget to carry the tent, because at the moment, the wind was about five or six levels, and it was still the vast Gobi desert. There was no shelter at all, and the wind blew on their faces like a knife.

Although they wear helmets, they are not the kind of cotton caps that are completely covered.

At this time, they also understand why Jiang Yanhai allowed them to carry all their supplies, because they are no longer facing the problem of food and drinking water, but the cruel test from nature!

After walking for seven or eight kilometers, Yang Rui suddenly said, "I suggest that we take all the combustibles we see now, such as wood that can burn. Otherwise, it will be very difficult for us to pass at night."

There are not many things that can be burned in the Gobi desert, although Alashan does not have nothing. For example, Tumbleweed, the most common plant in the Gobi desert, is available and easy to burn.

But this kind of thing can't burn all night. What they are looking for is some wood that doesn't know how long it will die. If they find these things, they should take them with them.

They also saw the terrain here. It's not completely flat. It's not difficult to find a shelter to light a fire at night.

As long as there is a fire, the night is not so difficult, but it is difficult to find the fuel that can burn for one night, but they have no way now. They can only bring it along when they meet along the way, which means that their load is bound to increase.

"Come on!" I don't know who yelled, and everyone else roared, and then started walking again.

They have similar experience in such extreme survival training. Walking is not like armed cross-country running for 10 kilometers or many kilometers. They must allocate their physical strength.

"In this way, we are divided into several rows and walk side by side. The last row is at the back air outlet, and several rows of people rotate. In this way, the people in front can keep their temperature." Gong Jian put forward another opinion, and everyone had no opinion. Soon everyone was divided into three rows.

The people in the back row walk on the air outlet to help the people in front keep out the wind. Although they can't block all the cold wind, it also works.

"How is it?" asked Jiang Yanhai, who had returned to a command car at the moment.

"Their physical characteristics are intact. The temperature during the day is only about minus 10 degrees. They have no problem. The most difficult time for them is at night. However, they have realized the problem. According to the observation of our UAV, they are consciously collecting and taking away some wood."

"Well, pay close attention to their safety." Jiang Yanhai nodded. These people are the best. Jiang Yanhai can't tolerate their losses.

Training is necessary, but the loss of this non war state is unacceptable to Jiang Yanhai.

The time finally came at night. After the sun set, the surrounding temperature was constantly decreasing. In particular, the wind seemed to be stronger at night. At the moment, the temperature was close to minus 20 degrees, although it had not reached the minimum temperature.

Their driving distance today is still OK. When they started today, it was in the afternoon. Up to now, they have walked about 60 kilometers in about 7 hours.

The average walking distance per hour is close to 9 kilometers, which is already very fast, not to mention that when they carry fuel such as wood, their weight is still increasing.

Moreover, the main load is still a small thing, because the volume of wood is relatively large and difficult to transport, which is a test for them.

"Gong Jian, Lao Gao, Shao Bing, we can't go." Yang Rui finally opened his mouth.

"If this goes on, our team members will be injured and the temperature is constantly decreasing. During the day, we can maintain our body heat by walking, but now our physical fitness is rapidly consumed. Coupled with the low temperature, something will happen when we go on."

"There's a leeward place over there. Go there and camp!" there was moonlight tonight, and the ground was covered with snow, so the surrounding light was OK. Gong Jian soon found a leeward area in front of him.

Fortunately, they have traveled 60 kilometers on foot. At present, this area is not a flat Gobi area, but has some uneven terrain, and sometimes even some hills, so it's OK to find some shelter from the wind.

In such a great northwest, it is very important to take shelter from the wind. At the moment, there is snow on the Gobi desert. Once the white wind blows, sometimes people freeze to death in minutes.

When they reached the place pointed out by Gong Jian, they soon found another better place hundreds of meters ahead. That place happened to be a semicircle, which could block the wind on three sides.

Everyone quickened their pace. When they walked past, they picked up some Tumbleweed on the way, which can be used as a igniter.

When they arrived at the shelter, everyone immediately took action. More than 60 people, each with some fuel, gathered so much wood at the moment. It's really a lot.

A few minutes later, the raging flame finally burned, and the people who didn't want to speak couldn't help shouting.

The raging flame dissipated the cold. Although a pile of fire could not cover everyone, their conditions did not allow them to make a second pile of fire.

Their fuel is only enough for a fire to burn all night, but they take shelter from the wind in three directions in this place. As long as most people are crowded in this area, then the people inside will not feel cold. It should not be a problem that the people closest to the fire outside have the warmth of the fire.

More than 60 old men crowded into a pile. Fortunately, the area of this place is not small, otherwise so many people really can't squeeze down.

At the beginning of the rest, everyone took out the canned beef first, but after taking it out, everyone smiled bitterly. Think about their outdoor walking at more than minus 20 degrees. This backpack is not an air conditioner and can't keep warm.

Everyone knows what the canned beef looks like.
