Chapter 127 The Cave of the Rocky Mountains

Lunch time for the roast was over, and the ground was a mess of broken bones or fallen food.American federal soldiers without the excellent tradition of the Republic are not very frugal.Especially on the front line of the battlefield, which can be killed at any time, there is often an unlimited supply of food, drink and clothing, and no waste is considered at all.And even after coming to this world, the soldiers of the Marine Corps had not changed this bad habit after being taught countless times by Liszt.

Of course, the task of these young men who had eaten and drank enough and were satisfied with the barbecue party was not to go back to the tent to rest.They were kicked by Liszt one by one, holding brooms or engineering shovels with grinning teeth, carefully cleaning up the mess made during the barbecue party, cleaning out all the broken bones and food residues in the crevices of the cobblestones.After all, this is a living area, and a large amount of rubbish accumulates, which may attract a lot of mosquitoes or wild animals, and it looks extremely dirty, which makes people feel uncomfortable.

The 20-member Marine Corps has been replenished after Liszt went ashore. All of them are equipped with standard bulletproof helmets, body armor, and Marine Corps jungle camouflage uniforms. Everyone even has a set of jungle auspicious suits as cover.And their arms classification is also set up for jungle warfare. Fifteen riflemen and five shotgunners together form this 20-man special operations team. No matter long-range firepower or close-range firepower suppression, they all have extremely strong Effect.

Liszt also nodded slowly, feeling satisfied with the more than 20 Marine Corps recruits.Although they have never been on the battlefield, they have received half a year of military education after coming out of military schools or training camps.Although in certain crisis situations, they are not as experienced as those veterans, but for Liszt now, it is enough for this group of recruits who know how to kill to be able to pull the trigger and kill all the enemies!
What's more, after they have experienced the real battlefield, they will gradually grow into veterans.Blood and fire are always the cruelest battlefields for newcomers, but this cruel battlefield is also a stage for any newcomers to grow rapidly.They survived, killed the enemy, and then grew into veterans who can stand on their own. Even if there is a higher battle loss ratio among them, in Liszt's view, the Marine Corps recruits who exchanged for 5000 points alone are more expensive than those who exchanged for 10000 points. For Marine Corps veterans, it's much more affordable.

Although veterans have strong combat capabilities and certain tactical command capabilities, for Liszt now, the firepower network formed by two recruits on the battlefield will always be more deterrent than a veteran.He didn't consider taking the route of elite soldiers, because in the face of the huge number of Soviet troops and Canadian troops, it is the best choice to have a certain number of his own troops and equip a few veterans to command them.

Lister, who possesses inhuman physical fitness and abilities, is more than capable of commanding twenty Marine Corps recruits. Even in a frontal attack, he can be like a sharp bayonet, ruthlessly tearing open any enemy's defense line in front of him. , let the twenty young men behind them who can still kill people decide the outcome of the battlefield.In the face of the power of firearms, even the most battle-hardened elites will still be overwhelmed by that tiny bullet!
As the members of the Marine Corps tidied up the ground, Liszt nodded slowly, but he couldn't help frowning slightly as he looked at the uneven cobblestone ground.These grounds are not quite flat, and the pebbles can only provide a fixation effect on the land, and even stepping on it with bare feet is not as comfortable as a complete soil layer.But he turned his head and looked at the temporary camp behind him, and reached out to say hello to Carl, the outstanding graduate: "Carl, come here."

"If we excavate the mountains, can we hollow out this mountain?"

Touching his chin, Liszt turned his head and looked at the mountain col behind the temporary camp.The location they are currently in is on the mountainside of a large mountain. In other words, this land is all formed by the drop of the remaining veins of the Rocky Mountains. There are not many plains at all, and it is completely covered with certain regular drops. mountain.And the folds of the mountain range are undulating, and humans like them are almost quite inconspicuous as the little ones among them.

This is also Liszt's initial plan for a nuclear war. Now that it has been determined that this area belongs to the opposite shore of the Queen Sherlock Islands, building a base of its own in the south of Prince Rupert, Canada, is also a guarantee for its own safety.No one knows whether those Canadian soldiers will appear in this area. Although Lister and the others are actually separated from Prince Rupert by several mountains and some islands separated by rivers, luck is not a simple matter.

Sometimes when Liszt and the others were leveling the camp, the helicopters in the sky that couldn't tell whether it was Canadians or Soviets would fly over.And according to Liszt's calculations, in the past week, the frequency of the helicopter flying in the sky has become higher and higher, and there are even shadows of fighter jets and transport planes appearing.Although they don't have specific information, based on their keen sense of war, they can still know that a certain dangerous atmosphere is gathering on this Canadian land.

As an outstanding graduate of the military academy, Karl can certainly sense this tense war atmosphere.But he frowned tightly, turned his head to look at the valley behind him, and the surrounding mountains, with a serious look on his face.But after thinking about it seriously, he still gave an opposing answer: "We don't have excavation equipment and blasting equipment, but even if we do, we can't use them, otherwise our location will be leaked."

"What if a lot of people dig? This land is not a rock formation."

Frowning slightly, Liszt also understood the problem Karl was talking about.The daily workload of the excavators cannot be compared with 20 of them digging for a week, and even if they use blasting methods to destroy the solid soil and rock layers and make the progress of the project faster, they cannot hide the huge sound.Once the helicopters that appear from time to time in the sky discover anomalies below, it will probably be time for a large number of Soviets or Canadians to come to encircle and suppress them.

However, Karl thought for a moment, then reached into his arms and took out the previous military map. He looked at the columns of longitude and latitude lines on it, then raised his head and frowned at Liszt: "Why don't we try to find it?" What about the caves that may appear in this area? Once we find caves such as those on the Queen Sherlock Islands, we can conduct deep excavations based on the caves." Karl paused slightly, and said with seriousness on his face: "Besides, the caves The caves in the Base Mountains are connected in patches, and we can get a huge amount of space without even digging."

"A cave in the Rocky Mountains?"

Lister was taken aback suddenly, and the specific geological structure of the Rocky Mountains was already in his mind.Tens of billions of years of geological movement have finally formed the mountains known as the backbone of North America, and extrusion has also allowed volcanoes to gradually appear in these mountains.And the large number of karst caves were also formed with the eruption of the volcano, coupled with the invasion and beauty of water resources all the year round, these karst caves became more and more, as if they were connected in pieces like ant nests, and even connected several mountain ranges.

In previous lives, Canada developed some caves as tourist attractions to attract tourists.However, most of the caves here are known as death tunnels, because once someone gets lost in them, it will be as if they have fallen into a dark hell and can never come out.But this is easy for Liszt, because once a large number of troops are stationed in them and repaired with building materials, these caves, which are known as death tunnels, can only become corridors of the huge military base!
