The early morning is a rare shade and quiet, the scenery is pleasant, and the pale red clouds in the sky give people a warm and warm feeling. But the jungle here has a primitive flavor, and the green silence is full of insidiousness. The animals are alive and well. The jungle confronts these intruders with its cold solemnity.

Lin Rui pursed his lips a little dry and put down the telescope in his hand. The low trees on the mountainside and the jungle at the bottom of the mountain are inseparable.

In the Polar Eye Mountains, several wide shadows adorned the folds of the mountains, and the silhouettes of the peaks appeared in front of them.

"We're almost there, and it's said that this was a secret camp for the Japanese army. Among them were tunnels, bunkers, command posts and storage depots, literally razed to the ground under the powerful fire of the Allies. But now, you can't even find a crater. Jiang Jian said in a low voice.

The plant life of the tropical rainforest is endless, and in just one year, ferocious heavy rains can wash out the bumpy craters. At that time, this veritable scorched earth was already full of artemisia grass and fresh bushes. All kinds of vines and plants are everywhere, entangled with each other.

Crazy Horse finds some alders and uses his machete to cut them open and distribute them to the others. It is a fern, woody, with tall and straight stems, large leaves, pinnate splits, starchy stems, and edible. This is what the warriors can feed their hunger during jungle survival training. It's not tasty, but it's non-toxic and swallowable.

This glade is surrounded by a tropical rainforest, which surrounds this mercenary team like a green fence without any backup. Like a green cemetery, dead and silent.

"You can go through this forest and you will reach the river. Shogan whispered as he walked.

The team members continued to walk towards the dark, damp old forest. Under his feet were kudzu vines and wattle sticks, they were intertwined with life and death, and Lin Rui had just taken a few steps when the wild vines with hooks and thorns tripped his legs.

The jungle was thick and dense, and the bright sunlight could not penetrate the canopy of leafy leaves, except for a few specks of light occasionally peeked through the mesh. Beneath your feet are soft black leaves. An unknown tree hangs from a net-like fibrous root, swaying slightly, like a row of nooses, and then looking forward and far away, I feel that my eyesight is sharply reduced, and in front of me it seems that a green and black tunnel leads to a bottomless abyss, and every step is a daunting adventure.

Crazy Horse and Lin Rui are leading the team forward! Crazy Horse's characteristics of being proficient in jungle warfare began to be revealed, and he and Lin Rui opened the way in front with machetes in hand. The man was a tall Indian with heavy equipment on his back. The jungle is full of insects, and every time you slash it, a cloud of gnats will rise. The vines are connected, and sometimes they can't be cut even with a few knives, but they just hang in the air.

Yelena suddenly screamed and retreated, trembling in fright. It turned out that a snake fell from the tree, and it fell in front of her with a "snap", and it seemed to be disturbed, and writhed towards the ** fallen leaves at its feet, and raised its head.

Lin Rui took a step forward, lifted the snake's tail like picking up a belt and shook it a few times, and threw it violently to the side, but he was not far away, hanging on a tree right, swinging, and making a creepy threat to the intruder of the jungle.

"Hey, that's good stuff. Crazy Horse immediately went up and cut off the snake's head, grabbed the snake body that was still wriggling, and said with a smile, "Does anyone want to eat snake meat?"

"Damn it, get that damn thing out of front of me. Yelena said in disgust.

"Haha, aren't you called a viper?" Sergey laughed loudly.

"Crazy Horse is right, it's good stuff, we don't have much time to find food, don't miss it when you come across it. Lin Rui smiled. He and Crazy Horse continued on their way until they were out of breath and sweating profusely.

It took half an hour to cut down all the way, and the team could be considered to have traveled a few hundred meters. But if you follow this level, you won't be able to reach the river when it's dark, and the further you go, the greater the physical exertion, and it's impossible to keep it like this all the time. If they can't get there, they'll be forced to camp out in the jungle again.

"It's not going to go on like this, everybody has to take turns in the felling. Shogishi said in a low voice, "Everyone help them change hands." ”

Snake Eye pulled out his machete and replaced Lin Rui, he looked at the bushes of non-grass, trees and vines in front of him, he couldn't help but sigh out, "I don't think there have ever been human footprints here, right?

When the team walked all the way to noon, Lin Rui ordered to stop to rest and eat.

From the GPS, it shows that they passed almost five kilometers in one morning. That's a pretty good degree. If this continues, they will barely be able to catch up today. It is not known if it was the jungle that defeated them, or if they conquered the jungle. The team members were exhausted. The camouflage uniform had long been soaked with sweat, and the stinky feet wearing the 6 combat boots had been eroded, and the sweaty crotch was worn out, and the itching was unbearable, and there were bursts of stinging.

Everybody was thinking, how nice it would be if they could take a hot shower at this point, but the reality was devastating, and the damn river never got found.

But the journey after that was more complicated. The climate is suffocating, and beyond the vine-entrenched zone, the tropical jungle takes on another form. The tall pine-cedar saga, whose name did not know the name, stood upright, and the vines became very few, except for the towering roots and half-foot-deep weeds, there were few obstacles, so that they easily walked more than two hundred meters, and the tendons of the whole team, which had stretched to the limit, suddenly relaxed.

In some places, there are soft aquatic weeds, swamp bubbles in the shallow puddles, and the blazing sun heats up the shallow water in the pool, making a gurgling sound. They stepped on more than 30 meters of swampland, and they were already sweating all over their bodies and their legs were muddy. Everyone in the team smelled of sweat and sludge, and the heat was unbearable, and they couldn't wait to tear off a layer of skin from their bodies.

However, Crazy Horse authoritatively warned everyone not to loosen the cuffs, necklines, and trouser legs, because there are leeches in the sewage, locusts on the leaves, and poisonous insects in the grass......

Sergei complained, "I hate this damn place, it reminds me of the Congolese rainforest." ”

Their weight plus 4o kg of weapon backpacks, walking in the jungle is undoubtedly a heavy burden. You also have to be careful if there is a muddy pond under these blisters, if you sink into it, you will really run into big trouble.

Lin Rui advised the brothers to be patient and persist for a few hours, and when they reached the river, they could go and take a clean water bath. This is a great boon for everyone, otherwise their bodies would have rotted in this moldy uniform. The crowd gritted their teeth again and moved on.
