Chapter 201 The idea of ​​a temporary vent
Hearing Xue Peng's words, Lin Yi prevaricated, "Now is not the time to worry about how to find the snowstorm, let's wait until this period of time is over."

Then he looked at the few people hiding in the cat's ear hole, "Come closer, you guys, cuddle up to each other to keep the heat, pay attention to turn off the power of the electric heating clothes, and turn on the electric heating clothes when you come out to block the snow."

Lin Yi could feel the maliciousness and ferocity brought by the weather, which made Lin Yi guess that the blizzard might not stop in a short time.

Looking at the time, it is now around one o'clock in the noon, and there are still seven hours before dusk.

As long as you can survive these seven hours and take advantage of the fact that the wind level will weaken in the evening weather, and rush to the next temporary rest point in one go, there will be no major problems.

It turned out that Lin Yi didn't tell everyone about the temporary rest point, because this point was not a regular rest point, and the regiment headquarters didn't know about it.

The regiment headquarters only knew the position of the glacier near the end of the eighth patrol route.

This is the point reported to the regiment headquarters. If something goes wrong, just say this point, and the regiment headquarters will instantly know the exact coordinates of the eighth squad.

In other places, it is useless even to report to the regiment headquarters. It is an area that cannot be rescued. There is no special mark, and it is impossible to distinguish it in heavy snow.

Moreover, these points are extremely irregular. To put it bluntly, they are just a place to hide from the wind, and the space is very small, so they can only be prepared for emergencies.

Moreover, in most cases, these places are not allowed to rest.

This is not because of non-compliance, but patrolling on the mountain depends on willpower. Once you stop and go, your willpower will be exhausted. The more you rest, the more lazy you are. That's what I mean.

Unless there are special circumstances, such as a person being scratched, or the body is uncomfortable and suddenly reversed, and they need to inhale oxygen, they will temporarily repair at these rest points. Otherwise, under normal circumstances, they will not stop at this place. down.

At this time, Xue Peng has already started to shovel the snow outside. The current snowstorm is very heavy. If the snow is not cleared for half an hour, the entrance of the cave will be completely buried. Once the entrance of the cave is buried, oxygen will become the biggest problem, so no matter what , it is also necessary to ensure the smoothness of the oxygen channel.

At this time, Lin Yi suddenly thought of something, since it is only necessary to ensure the smooth flow of the oxygen channel, why can't I invent a temporary vent, so that even after a snowstorm, as long as the digging is completed, there is no need to guard the entrance of the cave. Even if the heavy snow buries me, I just need to stretch out the pipe to ensure that oxygen can come in, isn't that all right?

Moreover, leaving only one oxygen channel can also greatly reduce heat dissipation, so that everyone can persist for a longer time?

Anyway, it's okay now, Lin Yi began to think about the method of oxygen channel.

First of all, the diameter of the air vent should not be small. To ensure the oxygen supply for a group of seven people, the diameter must not be less than ten centimeters.

But it’s not good if it’s too wide. If it’s too wide, the wind and snow will pour in. If you pour too much, it will be quite inconvenient to clean up in the pit.

Secondly, it must be stretchable. It is impossible for everyone to carry a two-meter-high pipe all the time when they are on patrol. This is unrealistic.

It is best to be able to fit into a standing item at any time, and it is not in the way to carry it with you.

Suddenly, Lin Yi saw the map tube on the Corporal's back. Isn't this an excellent item for carrying the ventilation channel? Lin Yi looked at the Corporal and said, "Bring the map tube."

The corporal thought that Lin Yi wanted to study the terrain, so he immediately handed the map tube to Lin Yi, "Platoon leader, I am very familiar with the terrain around here, if you don't understand something, you can ask me directly."

Lin Yi didn't want to look at the map. He had scouting skills and eagle eye skills. As long as he raised his eyes, the topography within two kilometers was directly presented in his mind, so he didn't need to ask.

You may be wondering, what era is this? Electronic maps have been popularized for a long time. Why do patrol teams still carry paper maps? This is too backward.

In fact, it is not behind at all. In the average temperature of minus [-] degrees in winter, any electronic equipment is unreliable. Even the walkie-talkie is not practical here. If you don’t believe me, hang the walkie-talkie on your clothes and see if it can be turned off after an hour. shutdown.

Even if you don't turn off the phone, there is a risk of crashing, let alone a more advanced electronic map. After a while, even if you don't turn off the phone, the touch screen may not be sensitive.

It's impossible to look at a map, I have to put the device in my arms to warm up for half an hour, it's too late.

But the paper map can be viewed directly when opened, if you want to see a plan view, you can use a plan view, and if you want to see a three-dimensional one, you can use a three-dimensional one, which is not too convenient.

In fact, even in modern warfare, electronic maps have become quite popular, but paper maps are still available.

The reason is very simple, precisely because electronic technology is very advanced now, so there are many means to target electronic equipment, such as electronic jamming bombs and electronic radiation bombs.

Or the graphite bomb known as the electricity killer.

Just throw one, and your electronic equipment is at risk of being paralyzed. If there is no backup of a paper map, once the electronic equipment is paralyzed, how can the battle be fought? It is impossible to command troops based on feeling.

Pulling away, back to the topic...

Lin Yi opened the map tube at this time, pulled out the map and handed it back to the corporal, then measured the caliber of the map tube, and then measured the length.

After simple measurement and calculation, a thin stainless steel pipe that expands into four sections can just fit in the map tube. This fit almost made Lin Yi mistakenly think that the map tube was made to hold the air vent.

The corporal looked at Lin Yi for a long time, and asked curiously: "Platoon leader, what are you doing?"

Lin Yi told everyone about the idea of ​​the temporary ventilation duct, and everyone was stunned. What they were thinking about now was how to get through this dangerous time, but Lin Yi was thinking about how to get through this dangerous time comfortably time.

If it weren't for the fact that they could still feel the violent cold wind outside, they would all think that Lin Yi was on vacation, which is too vivid.

Xue Peng's snow shovel was almost frozen at this time, and he looked at Lin Yi, "Platoon Leader Lin, I really hope you can make a temporary ventilation duct now, I can't help it, you can replace me Well, I'll postpone it."

Lin saw that Xue Peng's two arms were almost stiff from the cold, and he also knew how cruel the blizzard outside was. If not for the fact that everyone now had a snow pit to shelter from the wind, it might not be Xue Peng's two arms that were frozen stiff, but It was the bodies of seven people.

So he quickly took the military shovel, "Quick, you guys make room for Xue Peng, let him hurry up and take it easy."
