Chapter 199 The Bad Situation of Heavy Snow Weather

Lin Yi looked at Xue Peng again, "Do you have any opinions with me?"

Xue Peng shook his head, "No."

Lin Yi nodded, "Okay, that's all for now, Xue Peng will go patrolling with me tomorrow."

After dinner, the heavy snow began to fall again. Seeing Lin Yi standing outside frowning, Xue Peng quickly moved up to him, but he didn't dare to ask casually. He could feel that Lin Yi's body was almost blending into the big Naturally, is this his ability?
So he began to perceive nature, but even though Xue Peng was the number one strongman in the regiment, he couldn't perceive any changes in nature. The only thing he could feel was that the snow was getting bigger and bigger.

The reason why Lin Yi frowned was because he felt the accumulation of thick clouds in the sky, which meant that the heavy snow would not stop in a short time.

Heavy snow is different from strong winds. Strong winds have a great impact on the safety of patrol personnel. Therefore, once the wind reaches a certain level, patrols will temporarily stop.

But heavy snow will not, no matter in heavy snow, even if it is the kind of heavy snow that can bury you in the snow if you stand outside for an hour, the officers and soldiers of the outpost can't stop patrolling, the reason is very simple, the danger level of heavy snow Not high enough to give patrol pause.

Although the level of danger brought by heavy snow is not enough, if you ask the officers and soldiers of the outpost what weather they are most afraid of encountering, they will definitely talk about heavy snow.

Some people may wonder, the danger level of windy weather is so high that there is no need to patrol, and the danger level of heavy snow is obviously not as good as that of windy weather. Why are people afraid of heavy snow weather?
The reason for this is very simple, because there is no need to patrol in windy weather.

How comfortable it is for everyone to hide in the outpost, play chess and read books. If you have nothing to do, you can go to the kitchen to help Master Wu.

Then there must be some people who will say that if the wind power level is not high and you can patrol, will everyone think that the snowy weather is more difficult?
Lin Yi can almost certainly say yes.

When the wind is not strong enough, the cotton coats worn by the soldiers are enough to resist the cold. As long as the body does not lose temperature, there is no major problem.It's nothing more than walking against the wind, and you will be a little tired, but you will definitely not be particularly tired. After all, the wind is too strong, and the patrol will be suspended.

The weather with heavy snow is different. The weather with heavy snow is not cold at all, not only not cold, but also hot.

After the soldiers put on their clothes, they are not allowed to unzip any clothes on the road. Even if you want to unzip your hands, you must unzip them, and you must do so under the supervision of your teammates. And watch you zip it up to make sure nothing is missed.

You may think, it’s not such an exaggeration, there are people who swim in the winter at minus [-] degrees in the Northeast, are you so exaggerated?
Really.

For example, if your zipper is opened and a gap is exposed, I don't feel it, because I wear thick clothes and are heated by electric heating clothes, and I won't feel it for a while.

At this time, a strong wind suddenly blew up, and it was a high-level wind. In this emergency situation, everyone would definitely choose a good place to hide or dig a hole to hide from the wind at the first time.

When a person is concentrated, it is impossible to feel the changes in the body all the time. It is very likely that after ten to twenty minutes, the skin under the clothes will be frozen and rotted in the area exposed by your zipper. Clothes such as electric heating clothes and sweaters are completely unstoppable.

Lin Yi said before that in plateau areas, even when there is no wind, your hands have a little water stains, and if you don’t pay attention and dry them, you will go out and walk around. After three to five minutes, your hands will be dry. It will be frozen open, and after returning to the post, it will be thawed, and the blood will flow.

Not to mention, after the wind and snow blow into the zipper opening, the electric heating clothes and body temperature will heat the blown snow into water.

Under the attack of the strong wind, the water froze and stuck to the skin again.

If it's just the frozen skin, it's not bad, but it's even worse if it causes hypothermia in the body and the metabolism of the body organs is disordered.This is a plateau area, and any small mistake will have serious consequences.

In fact, the impact of warming is far from the worst place for heavy snow.

The worst part is that after the heavy snow falls, the ground will become very soft and slippery.

On ordinary patrol roads, as long as a strong wind blows over it, the snow surface will become extremely hard. In general, people will not sink when walking on it. This is like walking on a flat road. relaxing.

After the snow falls, the new snow is very soft, and people will step on it when they step on it. This is equivalent to walking on a muddy dirt road, and it consumes more energy than before.

But the most frightening thing is not the roads with snow, but the roads without snow.

On the patrol route, the road without snow means that the wind is usually very strong. The wind will blow away the snow on this road, but at the same time, the wind will also blow the stones extremely sharp.

Although some stones will be blown very brittle, but this kind of stone will be sharper instead. Some stone flakes will even be thinner than the blade on the military thorn. The trousers were pulled open.

Lin Yi also said just now that if the clothes are not pulled properly and cause frostbite, the consequences will be very serious.

In fact, it is not bad to be cut open, because our outer pants are of very good quality. If you cut the first layer, there is a second layer to protect it, and it is rare to cause frostbite.

But I'm afraid that the stone is so sharp that your legs will bleed. Even in many cases, the stone slices can bleed your legs through your pants. Even if the pants are not scratched, there are indeed blood stains on the legs.

Wounds are more sensitive to temperature, especially after being frozen, the wounds caused by ulceration will be more troublesome.

Moreover, the heavy snow is relatively smooth. When climbing the mountain, if you don't pay attention to your feet slipping, the danger will be even greater.

Even when the eighth squad leader was there, he would be extremely cautious when encountering snowy weather. He would rather walk for an hour and rest for 15 minutes than go straight to the end in one breath.

A person's mental state is limited, and it is impossible to be tense for hours, so he must ensure that everyone stops after walking for a while to calm down, lest everyone not pay attention and be scratched by the stone chips under their feet.

Lin Yi breathed out, and looked at Xue Peng, "Go back to the house and make the bed, go to bed early at night, our patrol team will suffer a lot tomorrow."

Xue Peng is not afraid of suffering, "Platoon Leader Lin, don't worry, I won't hold you back, I guarantee that wherever you go, I will follow you."

Lin Yi was not worried about Xue Peng's physical fitness, but worried about Xue Peng's carelessness. The patrol route was quite difficult, especially after the heavy snow covered many hidden dangers. The requirements are very simple, follow everyone's footsteps, step on where others step on, understand?"
