"Everyone is leaning on the camel, facing the sandstorm or lying on the ground. The accumulation of sand is generally slow, so there is no need to worry about being buried in the sand." Scimitar said loudly.

Several other Tuareg mercenaries were commanding the camels to lie down in an arc, and then the people lay on the leeward side of the camels. The camel is a very intelligent animal. It will shake constantly with the falling of the sand. The storm has nothing to do with it. It is absolutely safe to lie beside them.

"The sandstorm hasn't started yet, why should we stop?" Sergey complained.

"It's already started, but it's not here yet. We must not get on a camel and drive a camel through the desert. No matter how fast a camel can run, it can't go faster than a sandstorm, and it's very easy to get lost in this environment. , the danger is great. Everyone has a headscarf over their heads."

A few minutes later, a huge mushroom cloud suddenly appeared in the sky in the distance. As the yellow mushroom cloud rolled and approached, the clear sky instantly turned gray and gloomy, and the camel lay on the ground and moved uneasily. The sandstorm is as shocking and spectacular as the flooding scene in the movie. At this time, the wind continued to strengthen. Everyone had sand in their eyes and mouths, and visibility was very low.

Lin Rui and a few Tuareg mercenaries took some supplies from the camels and reinforced them to prevent them from being blown away by the wind. Although they were wrapped in headscarves and wearing goggles, they still felt pain when the sand hit the uncovered parts of their faces. Not only do people need protection, but so do camels. The powerful winds that blow during a sandstorm can knock a camel's eyes out. Camels have double eyelashes, which can resist the wind and sand, but before the strong sandstorm, the camel has no way to resist.

So they also had to block the camel's eyes with special protective gear, and if the camel was blind, they would be hopeless. The sky was dark, and the dust was raging, as if it was about to devour the whole world. The surroundings seemed to have turned dark red, and the scene was extremely terrifying. The sound of the wind was like thunder, carrying the mournful cry of Qianhun Yexuan, and the wind roared, and the wind was extremely violent.

The gust of wind and sandstorm slammed into the face, and for a time, the surrounding area was shrouded in the overwhelming sand and dust. The sky and the earth were dark and yellow, making people unable to distinguish between east, west, north and south. Skin, tearing and overturning everything that blocked the wind. In just over ten seconds, the large-scale whirlwind that was out of control finally collapsed and broke out. The enemy and the enemy shrouded everything in it, and began to devour life.

For a while, in addition to the roar of the gust of wind, which was about to tear the eardrums, the sound of the gust of wind was everywhere, and the originally heavy items were rolled in the air like a paper tie, and they were scattered and flying everywhere.

There was chaos everywhere, and the only ones who could barely protect themselves were the team members who had fastened themselves to the camel in advance. In order to avoid being blown away, Lin Rui and others used ropes to hang the people and camels together in advance. They cling to the camels in the wind, struggling to survive. After the storm passed, the ground was already in a mess, and their supplies and items were blown away so that even the shadows disappeared.

Lin Rui led people along the ropes to find other people. Some of them even had half their bodies buried in the yellow sand, and a few camels could no longer stand up. The sand around them has to be cleaned to get them back on their feet. They were almost buried to the back by the sandstorm. Lin Rui asked the brothers to get up and quickly took the camel out. "The camel can't fall down. We still have a long way to go. Has the sausage found our supplies?"

Those supplies were originally loaded on camels, before the sandstorm came, Lin Rui and the others took down the supplies and re-reinforced them. But now, things have been blown to pieces. These supplies are ammo, and food, but more importantly, water. The most important supply in the desert is water. This time they were ready, carrying plenty of water and food in a dozen or so airtight boxes. But it has now been blown to the point where only three or four large boxes remain.

"Oops, we have to at least find these supplies. Without water and food, we can't last long." Sergey generally shook off the sand from his body and head, while whispering.

"Ghost knows where it was blown." Sausage shook his head.

"Didn't I ask you to fix all important items with ground anchors?" Lin Rui said angrily.

"Maybe the fixing rope was blown off, maybe it was buried under the sand." Sausage shook his head, "Maybe we can look around."

"It's too late to look for it, we have to leave quickly. The sandstorm has stopped, and the armed men of the Polisario Front may come to us at any time. We have to take this opportunity to go." Crazy Horse frowned.

Lin Rui shook his head, "Without food and water, we can't go very far."

"We have enough food, mainly because a few boxes containing water have been lost. Maybe we can overcome it and go to the nearest oasis to replenish." Crazy Horse frowned.

"With the current amount of water, we can't hold on to the nearest oasis." Lin Rui shook his head. "What's more, the last few oases are in the hands of the militants of the Frente Polisario."

"Then let's look for it." Sausage whispered, "Those boxes are strong and will not be damaged. And they are all connected with safety ropes. As long as we find one, we can find the others along the rope. "

"However, the sandstorm just now was so severe. These boxes may have been buried. We can't just aimlessly look for them." Scarface frowned.

"Communicator!" Sausage said suddenly~www.readwn.com~ We can follow the signal of the communicator to find those boxes. My communicator is in one of the boxes. The communicator has GPS positioning, we can use satellite positioning to find my communicator. Chests can also be found. "

"This is a solution. There is no signal." Lin Rui nodded. "But you can try it. If we can retrieve the lost water tank within half an hour, it will be safer than finding other oasis to replenish drinking water."

"I'll check." Sausage took out the tactical tablet, checked it, and said in surprise, "There is a signal! It's hard to believe that this **** sandstorm blew these things over a kilometer away."

"Then don't hesitate, everyone ride the camel and set off. We must retrieve those boxes." Lin Rui nodded.

"Two camels have been buried in the sand for so long that they seem to be dying. They can't stand up anymore," Scimitar replied.

"Then give them up. We don't have time to consume any more. The enemy won't give us time, and they won't wait for us." Lin Rui shook his head.
