Liu Jiujiu nodded, and Fade Chen said to the other soldiers: "After we go up, we will lower the ropes from above. You can use these ropes and follow the climbing techniques I taught you to reach the top of the mountain. When the time comes, take care to protect our equipment.”

Seeing everyone nodding their heads, Fade Chen said again: "When you stay at the bottom of the mountain, don't move around, there may be Russian troops coming here, and the temperature here is relatively low, so you must use what I taught you. The snow ambush method hides, understand?"

Everyone nodded. The method of ambush in the snow that Fade taught them was actually to dig a hole in the ground, put blankets and other warming things in the hole, and cover themselves with blankets, and then covered themselves with snow. This is not easy to be found, but also to keep warm.

Fade Chen and Liu Jiujiu determined the method of alternate protection for climbing, and they were preparing to climb the mountain on the south slope of Yingchou Peak. Liu Jiujiu had never heard of the method of alternate protection for mountaineering, so he followed Fade Chen's instructions wholeheartedly.Fade Chen skillfully knotted the rope, and climbing knots need to withstand a lot of force, so the knotting technique in rock climbing is very different from that in daily life, and it is almost one of the most important techniques in rock climbing.

Fade tied all kinds of knots, tied a thick rope around the waists of the two people, and took a lot of pitons in the bag around his waist, and began to climb towards the mountain peak. During the rock climbing, the first Climbers are the most dangerous, because the people below are still on the ground. If No. 1 slips, the people below will not be able to hold him with their own bodies. The only thing waiting for him is the fate of falling. , in this environment, a fall means death!

At the first three meters up, there is still a way to go, but above three meters, there is no place with a relatively gentle slope, and they are all rock walls that are almost perpendicular to the ground. This is also the reason why Chen Fei is not allowed to go up. Because it is too difficult to go.

Fade Chen looked at the stone wall in front of him. It was full of protruding stones and cracks of various sizes. Those stones and cracks could be used as starting points and footholds. During rock climbing, the hands and feet provide the body with four The fulcrum, only when the three fulcrums are stable can the fourth point be moved.

Fade Chen thought for a while on a rock, stretched out his hand, grabbed a protruding stone, and tried it hard, and found no signs of loosening, so he firmly grasped it, and then lifted his left foot, Stepping on the crack below, just like that, slowly climbed up three meters.

At this time, Fade Chen was already six meters away from Liu Nineteen, so Fade Chen gestured to Liu Nineteen to follow him. Liu Nineteen followed Fade Chen's route and went up to Fade Chen's vicinity. Fei said: "Mr. Chen, let me take over for the next paragraph. You will protect me below."

Fade Chen shook his head, and said decisively: "No, I can't let you take risks, you should protect me, and I'll go up."

Liu Jiujiu knew that his rock climbing level was far behind Fade Chen, so he stopped arguing. He took out the climbing pick and inserted all the picks into the cracks in the rock. In case Fade Chen accidentally dropped it, the stainless steel The climbing pick is the only life-saving straw for the two of them.

Fade Chen continued to climb upwards, and Liu Jiujiu followed up to protect him. He went up more than 50 meters, and everything went smoothly. When he reached 60 meters, an accident happened. Fade Chen did not find a protruding rock on a rock wall. Block, so he chose to hold on to the crack and climb up. He stretched out his right hand to measure the crack, and then grabbed the edge of the crack with his hand.

Fade Chen firmly grasped the crack with his right hand. He was about to raise his right foot to step on another stone peak when he suddenly felt his hand slip. Come down, this time is when Chen Fei's right hand and right foot are flying into the air at the same time, and this time it directly slides down.

For a moment, Fade Chen was frightened out of his wits. He instinctively glanced at the rock wall, and a crack came into view instantly. Before he had time, he stretched out his hand to hold the crack, and stepped on the rock wall with his legs, and then his body stopped. down.

However, a few stones rolled down from Fade Chen in a "crash", so frightened that Liu Shijiu grabbed the handle of the climbing pick fiercely. Seeing that Fade Chen did not fall, he felt relieved and shouted at the top. Said: "Mr. Chen, are you okay?"

Fade Chen shouted: "It's okay, keep going, your hand slipped." Fade Chen took a deep breath, grasped the crack again, climbed up, and went up more than 50 meters. When Fade Chen saw the mountain wall in front of him, he couldn't bear it. I couldn't help laughing. It turns out that the mountain wall here is like a smooth mirror, and the cracks in the rocks are so small that my hands can't get in at all.

Fade Chen thought helplessly: "Why is God against me everywhere? It seems that this kind of rock wall can only be used with rock nails." Fade Chen looked at the rock wall in front of him, found a narrow crack, and then began to squeeze his waist. Look for pitons in the pockets between them. For cracks of different shapes, the shapes of pitons used are different. Finding a suitable piton for a crack, rather than holding a piton to find a suitable rock crevice, is the most important thing in rock climbing. This is also the reason why Fade Chen carried a lot of heavy pitons.

Chen Fei took out the most suitable piton, and took out the hammer from his waist. Just as he was about to drive the piton into the rock wall, he suddenly found that the rock wall he was on was too steep. If you drive the piton, I am afraid that the reaction force will push you off the mountain wall.

So Fade Chen looked around, trying to find a gentler rock wall, but there was no good choice within the range of his eyesight. When Fade Chen was in a hurry, a gap in the rock wall in front of his chest caught his attention. , he suddenly thought: Insert a suitable piton into the gap in the rock wall in front of his chest.

Chen Fei clasped the stone gap tightly with his left hand, then jumped out a suitable piton, and inserted it into the gap in the rock wall in front of his chest. Fortunately, the gap was very deep, so all the pitons were inserted directly, only the tail of the piton The ring was left out, and Fade Chen used a knot to connect the belt on the chest with the ring at the end of the piton, so that the chest could provide a new fulcrum for the body, and Fade Chen could free his hands.

Fade Chen carefully picked up the piton and the steel hammer, and inserted the piton into the rock crevice above. The choice of the rock crevice is actually very difficult. After all, no one can see the situation inside the rock crevice. If the rock crevice is empty, Pitons simply cannot support the weight of a person.

Even so, Fade Chen has a way to judge the situation inside the rock cracks, that is to listen to the sound. When the hammer hit the tail of the piton, Fade Chen had a bottom line in his heart, because the sound was "thump thump." The crisp sound of "thump" instead of the muffled sound of "bang bang bang" means that the cracks in the rock are not empty, and the pitons are firmly inserted into the rock.

After the piton was driven in for a while, Fade Chen let go of his left hand holding the piton, grasped the stone wall again, and then smashed all the pitons in with a hammer, leaving only the ring at the end. Fade Chen took out a piece of rope, Then a stirrup-shaped strap was tied to the piton, and I grabbed it and continued up.

Fade used the pitons along the way, and soon approached the top of the mountain. When Fade Chen was hitting the last piton, he felt that his waist was being pulled down hard, and he slid down the mountain involuntarily. Fade Chen was shocked. , the first thought in my mind was: Liu Jiujiu missed, the protection of the two is mutual, and I must save him.
