Chapter 163 Placing Traps
Seeing the two wolves running away, Deputy Squad Leader Zhu laughed, "I scared the two wolves away without even opening the insurance, but the deterrent effect of the rifle is stronger."

Lin Yi has been watching Deputy Squad Leader Zhu drive away the wolves at the sentry post, because the strong wind blows, snow is blown all over the sky, and visibility is greatly reduced.

Therefore, Lin Yi, because of his reconnaissance skills, could see clearly where Deputy Squad Leader Zhu couldn't see.

He could clearly see that the two wolves did not go far, so when Deputy Squad Leader Zhu led the team back to the outpost, Lin Yi reminded: "Vice Squad Leader Zhu, the wind is so strong now, don't take off your gear Yes, put on your standbys."

Vice squad leader Zhu looked surprised, "Platoon leader, am I ready for duty?"

Generally speaking, the chief and deputy squad leaders are responsible for leading the team, either they are the team leader of the patrol team, or they are responsible for the work in the station.

It’s not that the chief and deputy squad leaders don’t have to be on duty, it’s just that an old non-commissioned officer is enough to lead the squad.

But when Lin Yi spoke, Deputy Squad Leader Zhu didn't dare to refuse, and put the rifle back on his body again.

Lin Yi didn't care about the opinions of other staff, and stared at the wolves outside the window again. He could feel that it was the idea of ​​these wolves to attack the vegetable cellar.

But Lin Yi was a little puzzled, shouldn't wolves eat meat?There is no meaty smell in this vegetable cellar, can they also like to eat it?
But Lin realized that the wolf who was still eating garbage just now was relieved.

When they are hungry, they even eat garbage, let alone vegetables. For them, survival is more important than what they eat.

The time soon came to night, and the wind speed had reached about level eight. Deputy squad leader Zhu saw that Lin Yi had been at the sentry post on the second floor for a long time and didn't come down. He was a little puzzled. After climbing up to the second floor, he saw Lin Yi staring at Looking at the dark place outside the window, he said, "Platoon leader, dinner is about to start, do you want to eat first?"

Lin Yi saw that Deputy Squad Leader Zhu was still wearing the equipment, and stretched out his hand, "Come on, I've been preparing for duty for so long, give me the equipment, and I'll prepare for duty."

Deputy Squad Leader Zhu listened to the strong wind outside, and finally said what he said in his heart, "Platoon Leader, in this kind of weather, it's enough for the guards on the first floor to be on standby. It's okay to have more standby staff in sunny weather. In this windy day, there is really no need to add people to prepare for it."

Lin Yi didn't mention the possibility that the wolves would attack the vegetable cellar. Besides, this mission lasted for two months, and it might be today, or it might be the last day.

I don't need to increase everyone's panic level.

"Give me the equipment. The safer we are, the more vigilant we must be. The enemy will not attack when you are ready, they will only attack when they are not prepared."

Deputy Squad Leader Zhu was stunned for a while when he heard this, and then decisively turned his rifle back, "Platoon Leader, I understand what you mean, I was careless earlier, I thought I had a lot of experience, so I subconsciously relaxed.

But I forgot that experience is not the most important thing in fighting against the enemy. The most important thing is that we must have a nerve that is always tense, and we must not be paralyzed.

Be prepared at all times. These words should be deeply rooted in the hearts of our border guards. Don't worry, I will never give the enemy an opportunity. Be sure to be on duty and prepare more when you are free. "

Lin Yi didn't expect Vice Squad Leader Zhu to think so, and scratched his head, "Give me the equipment first, don't you eat right away? You eat first."

Vice squad leader Zhu waved his hand, "It's okay, I'm not hungry."

Lin Yi rolled his eyes, "You have to eat even if you are not hungry. Do you want to starve your stomach if you don't eat at mealtime? The conditions here are difficult, so we have to pay attention to our health. Give me the equipment. You go first." Have a meal."

Deputy squad leader Zhu took off the equipment when he saw that Lin Yi was angry. After Lin Yi put it on, he carried a flashlight and walked out with the intercom in his arms.

Seeing this, the backup staff took the initiative to follow one behind Lin Yi. When going out at night, unless they were going to the bathroom, they had to be accompanied by two people.

Sometimes in windy weather, even two people have to go to the toilet.

The soldiers who followed Lin Yi didn't dare to ask. Anyway, it was right to follow Lin Yi. Because the wind was strong, Lin Yi didn't take the initiative to speak up. Injured the lung, it is troublesome to go down the mountain for treatment.

Lin Yi came out this time with a very clear purpose, which is to inspect the outdoor vegetable cellar.

Because of the drop, Lin Yi could only see the door of the vegetable cellar clearly at the guard post on the second floor. Generally speaking, it is enough to see the door of the vegetable cellar. The snow in other places is five or six meters thick, and ordinary things cannot get in. , at least the vegetable cellar door is the easiest place to attack.

But an animal like a wolf cannot use human thinking to figure it out, so it has to be patrolled every time it goes around.

Because of the strong wind and snow, the snow on the vegetable cellar was even more solid now. Lin Yi stood up carefully and found that there were no footprints left.

If human footprints cannot be left, then even wolf footprints cannot be left.

Someone at the sentry post on the second floor is always watching the vegetable cellar. Wolves should not attack from the front. It seems that some mouse traps must be placed behind the vegetable cellar. This way, at least we can know whether there have been wolves in this place.

Thinking of doing it, Lin Yi immediately got up and went to the post to get the mousetrap. When a corporal saw it, he asked in surprise, "Is the platoon leader trying to catch rabbits?"

A senior soldier next to him said: "What kind of rabbit is caught? This is a mousetrap. It is estimated that the platoon leader was afraid that the vegetable cellar would be dug through by mice and ate it, so he put a few in. I have to say that what the platoon leader thought was thoughtfulness. can be taken care of."

When the corporal heard this, he clicked his tongue, "Don't be so flattering, we don't have mice here, we only have groundhogs here. Although groundhogs are very good at digging holes, they are hibernating at this time. How could they go to ours? Steal food from the vegetable cellar."

Only then did the private officer remember, "That's right, platoon leader, we don't have mice this winter. This mouse trap is to prevent groundhogs from digging up the sand and gravel near the post. It won't be needed now."

Lin Yi waved his hand, "I don't use this thing to prevent rats. I always feel that there will be wild animals attacking our vegetable cellar, so I put a few in there as a warning. I go to check every morning. If the clip is tampered with, it will It proves that Caijiao has been targeted, then we have to be careful."

The corporal thought about the structure of the vegetable cellar. The inside is an insulation layer, the middle is covered with barbed wire, the outside is directly reinforced with ice, and the outermost layer is covered with snow more than five meters thick.

He really couldn't figure out what kind of wild animals would attack it in such a well-protected place. When they dug through the vegetable cellar, it would probably be spring.
