"Germans are indeed prone to lunatics, so do you know where there is water?" Wei Ran asked, and secretly added in his heart, "Just like there are many fagots in your country who like to be shit sticks. Same.
"Will you let me go? "Harry began to talk about the conditions.
"I can't decide this matter," Wei Ran replied truthfully, "but at least I can help you keep the secret. "
After thinking for a long time, Harry finally nodded and whispered an answer, "Before he was captured, I told my teammates in the same reconnaissance vehicle during a chat that in the summer, there were many people nearby. A British fighter jet once crashed, but the pilot of that fighter jet persisted at the crash site for half a month before being rescued alive.
So if we can find the location of the crashed fighter jet, that's the only place where we're likely to find water. After all, if you want to persist in the summer desert for half a month, it is enough to prove that there must be water nearby. But the problem now is, I'm not sure I can find it. "
"Can you find your way back? "Wei Ran changed directions and asked, "Whether it's going to Gubi Well or returning to your British position.
Harry spread his hands and said, "I'm just a radio operator. Even before I was captured, I didn't pay attention to where the car went." But I'm sure my teammates weren't joking. There must be a crashed fighter jet nearby. "
"It's a pity that we don't have a radio." Weiran sighed regretfully.
"Where should we go next? "Carlo, who was in charge of driving the three-wheeled motorcycle, turned his head and asked loudly.
Hearing this, Harry waited cautiously for Weiran to say something randomly in "English" that he didn't understand at all. He raised his hand and pointed in the direction.
Under the driving of Carlo, the three-wheeled motorcycle ran on the soft sand for nearly an hour, and finally stopped at a foothill at Harry's signal. There is a stone mountain two or three stories high.
"Is there water here?" Carlo asked excitedly before he even had time to get out of the car.
Wei Ran, who had secretly communicated with Harry before parking the car, shook his head, "Let's wait here until dawn."
Hearing this, Carlo was immediately discouraged and listlessly took down the canvas from the cargo compartment. With Harry's help, he set up a low tent that was barely big enough for three people to lie down on. < /p>
While Carlo was pouring fuel into the cans filled with sand and preparing to light a bonfire, Wei Ran pointed to the low mountain not far away and said, "I'll go up and take a look, but you should be careful. "
"Be careful," Carlo said while throwing the lit match into the can.
Hold up a crate made of crates and dipped in fuel. Wei Ran carefully climbed up the stone mountain with a suggested torch made of canvas, and then turned his back to the two people at the bottom of the mountain and raised the telescope he had just taken out of the metal book.
However, even if it was. At the end of the field of view in the telescope, he didn't see any fire around him at all.In other words, they are still very far away from the battlefield and the positions of both warring parties.
After putting away the telescope and returning to the foot of the mountain, Carlo had already cooked a large lunch box full of canned beef and broken biscuits with a bottle of red wine.
However, even if he mixed in half a can of tomatoes, olive oil and a small piece of butter that Italians like, this steaming paste with the smell of wine was really not that good. eat. But at least the vomit-like stuff would keep them warm.
After filling their stomachs randomly, the three of them shared another bottle of wine, then put out the bonfire, closed the canvas tent door, each wrapped in a piece of canvas and fell into silence and wondered whether they could find water. worries.
At 1:50 in the morning, Wei Ran, who was in charge of the first night shift, once again climbed up the short mountain with a torch, took out his telescope and pointed it in the direction they came from.
While he was waiting patiently, at exactly two o'clock, an imperceptible light flashed across the night sky where the telescope was pointed. If nothing else, it was the tracer or incendiary bomb fired by Pell from the anti-aircraft gun who stayed behind. It was also the only beacon that guided them back smoothly.
Put away the telescope, Wei Ran returned to the foot of the mountain, woke up the snoring Carlo, and returned the watch to him.
Taking the watch, Carlo rubbed his face, got out of the tent wrapped in canvas, and sat down on the three-wheeled motorcycle.
When another shift was finished at four in the morning, Carlo and Harry also woke up one after another. The three of them ate the same Mussolini butt meat stewed in red wine as last night, then packed up the tent and climbed onto the tricycle.
This time, Carlo left the driving job directly to Harry, while he sat on the cargo bed and stood guard with a submachine gun. As for Wei Ran, he curled up on the folded canvas to catch up on his sleep. .
I don’t know how long they ran. When Wei Ran was woken up by the exclamation and got up, the three-wheeled motorcycle had stopped, and on a sand dune not far from them, he was lying A Hurricane fighter jet with its tail broken off and one wing missing!
Harry, who was in charge of driving the motorcycle, turned around and nodded to Wei Ran, the meaning he wanted to express was self-evident.
"Carlo, cover me. Harry!"
After saying that, Wei Ran waved to Harry and led him cautiously towards the wreckage of the plane not far away. Carlo, who was behind him, had also raised his submachine gun.
Taking Harry to the edge of the plane wreckage, before Wei Ran could speak, Harry whispered, "This is it, it must be here! What we have to do now is to find a way Find out where the surviving pilots got fresh water from."
Wei Ran glanced at the obviously bombed fighter cockpit, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "Harry, let's split up. Let's look around."
"Aren't you worried about me escaping?" After Harry said this, he realized that there was no need to ask. There was a vast desert nearby, and even if he was allowed to run away, he wouldn't be able to escape.Where to run?
"Be safe," Wei Ran said, then turned around and climbed up a sand dune not far away.
Looking around, there was nothing special at all, except for half of a reflective wing lying quietly on the sand not far away, and half of the tail lying further away. place.
Turning his head and looking at Harry, who was already walking towards the tail of the plane, Wei Ran ran down the sand dune and walked on the soft sand towards the particularly conspicuous wing a hundred meters away.
Unfortunately, this wing seems to have just been carried here by the wind. There is nothing under the wing, and no clues related to water can be found on the wing itself. On the contrary, Harry in the distance was standing next to the wreckage of the plane's tail, waving wildly at him.
Hurrying towards Harry's position, the latter pointed to a piece of writing on the tail of the plane and said, "It says five kilometers east of the wreckage of the plane." There is an abandoned well at the location."
"Let's go over and take a look!" After Wei Ran said that, he immediately turned around and ran to the other side of the dune.
