Sunset.

An armed patrol boat appeared in the middle of the sea off the coast of the Philippines. The golden waves rolled forward, and between the sea and the sky, a small island appeared, which looked like a crescent moon.

"It's the island. Charley pointed forward, "Comrade, just send us up there." ”

"Okay, no problem. But Mr. Xia, you must be careful, this is already a place controlled by the Philippine Navy. Said a naval soldier piloting an armed speedboat.

Xia Lei patted the Navy soldier on the shoulder, "Thank you, I'll be careful." ”

A few minutes later, the armed speedboat came to the shallow waters of the island. Xia Lei picked up the armed speedboat with a large equipment bag and walked to the beach on the island with waist-high water. Behind him, Kyoko Tsukino and Erdemutu followed, each carrying a large equipment bag.

After letting go of the three of them, the armed patrol boat quickly turned around and headed in the direction of Dagua Island.

"Boss, how long are we going to stay here?" said Erdemutu, observing the situation on the island.

Charlei looked at the multifunction watch on his wrist and said, "Yelena came to pick us up at 8 o'clock, and now there is still an hour before that time, and we will leave in an hour." ”

"There may be problems with the island, and it would be best if we could get out as soon as possible," Erdemutu said. ”

"What did you find?" asked Charleigh.

"Didn't find anything, I just had a bad feeling. Erdemutu said.

Xia Lei had actually observed the island as well, and had used the ability to combine his left and right eyes. The result of the investigation was that nothing was found, and the island was an uninhabited island. However, he trusted Erdemutu's instincts, because Erdemutu was the hunter of the Zodiac clan, an expert in creating traps, and an expert in hunting. He has the keen instincts of a hunter, and he can't see danger, but he can smell it.

"Let me go and see the island. Kyoko Tsukino said.

"No, this island is almost five square kilometers in size, and it will take at least a day to search for this small island, and we will only be on this small island for one hour. So there's no need for that, we just need to take a look around here. ”

"Alright then, I'll go to the left. Kyoko Tsukino said, "Erdemutu, you go to the right." We each went 300 meters and then came back to meet the boss. ”

Erdemutu nodded, then searched to the right.

Xia Lei also launched a search from the middle, but he had no intention of searching 300 meters at all. He searched about 100 meters or so before returning to the beach.

"Erdemutu, what's going on over there?" asked Xia Lei over the communicator.

"Nothing has been found for the time being. Erdemutu replied.

"Apricot, what's going on over there?"

"There's nothing special about my side, I don't find any traces of human activity, but ......" Kyoko Tsukino voiced.

Xia Lei's heart moved, "But what?"

"I found some marks, what looked like traces of wild beasts, very large and obvious. Kyoko Tsukino replied.

Xia Lei frowned suddenly, "There is no way for a large beast to survive on this small island, food and water are both problems. Tell me, what beast did you see?"

"Horses. Kyoko Tsukino's voice, "It seems to be a trace of a horse." ”

"Horses, how can there be horses on this island?" said Charleigh's heart, confused.

"Yes, I'm sure it's a trace of a horse. Kyoko Tsukino's tone was affirmative.

"Where does it lead?"

"Towards the heart of the island. Kyoko Tsukino's voice.

A satellite bird's-eye view of the island suddenly came to Xia Lei's mind. This is a bird's-eye view of the satellite that he has seen on his multi-function watch, and the island resembles the shape of a steamed bun, with a slightly higher ground in the middle and a slightly lower terrain around the island. There is only an elevation difference of less than 200 meters between the highest island center and the lowest coastline. The island was covered with extremely dense tropical forests, and even his eyes could not do it with his eyes.

What's the secret of this uninhabited island? The satellite that comes to mind doesn't solve the problem at all, because it's just a scaled image. The image he takes in with his eyes is just a blurry image, and his brain has no way to enlarge and clarify what is already blurry.

Charley opened his gear pack and took out his hacker computer. What a multi-function watch can't do, a hacked computer can easily do.

A few minutes later, Xia Lei was connected to the Beidou positioning system. The authority he has is military-level authority, and he can use all the resources that the Chinese military can use.

A new satellite aerial view appears on the hacker's computer. The originally vague and small picture became large and clear, and as his fingers moved, the situation of the island was unobstructed in front of him.

He looked around the perimeter of the island, then slowly pushed toward the center. Soon, the aerial view of the satellite freezes the heart of the island. In the middle of the dense forest, he saw a corner of a wooden building, which was not a normal house, but a treehouse built on top of a large tree. The treehouse is very basic, but it is very durable, it doesn't take long to build, and the wood looks fresh.

Subsequently, he saw more treehouses in the heartland, as well as people, Filipino military personnel.

In the heart of the island is a small barracks, and the number of Filipino soldiers is about fifty, some of whom train in an open field. Next to the clearing were a dozen short, sturdy pack horses with wooden shelves on their backs.

On the other side, more than a dozen Filipino servicemen are assisting some foreigners in assembling a radar with two Harpoon anti-ship missiles standing next to the radar.

Xia Lei suddenly understood. This uninhabited island is close to Dagua Island, and the Philippines has installed radar and anti-aircraft missiles on this island, obviously aiming for Dagua Island!

The Philippines has no military strength at all, and its existing weapons and equipment are nothing more than obsolete or second-hand goods bought from European and American countries. But with the support of the Americans, they became emboldened and arrogant. They built a radar station on this island and placed anti-ship missiles, the purpose of which was obviously aimed at the warships that China had placed on Dagua Island!

Xia Lei grabbed the communicator, "Apricot, Erdemutu, come back, don't search anymore." ”

"I'm not 500 meters yet. Kyoko Tsukino's voice.

Erdemutu also said: "Boss, why?"

"There is a military base on this island, there are Filipinos and Americans. Xia Lei said.

"I'm back. Erdemutu and Kyoko Tsukino answered almost simultaneously.

Xia Lei opened the equipment bag, and then assembled the wind assault rifle in the equipment bag. He loaded the wind assault rifle and glanced at the hacker computer, at this time, the military base in the center of the island suddenly moved, and a team of more than ten people led the pack horses to this side.

Xia Lei suddenly frowned, this team was obviously a team transporting supplies. If they go this way, it means that a ship will come to meet them. But the problem now is that it will take at least twenty minutes for Kyoko Tsukino and Erdemutu to return here, and if the ship that was carrying the supplies happens to return during this time, the situation will be very bad.

"Apricot, Erdemutu, there's a team of supplies that has left that military base and is heading for the beach where we landed, you need to hurry, it's better to be back to meet me in ten minutes. Xia Lei urged.

"No problem!" Erdemutu's voice, with a wheezing voice, he was clearly already running.

"Boss, let that armed patrol boat come back, it shouldn't have returned to Dagua Island yet. Kyoko Tsukino's voice, she was obviously also talking while running, with a panting voice.

"I need to make sure more about it, you guys come back first. Xia Lei said. He slid his finger over the satellite map and moved it to the sea between the Philippines and the island, barely thinking about dismissing the idea of calling the unarmed patrol boat back, and a frigate was heading for it.

Charley zoomed in on the frigate's image and scanned it with his right eye. He quickly got the relevant information. This warship is the Philippine Navy's largest and most powerful frigate, the USS Rajahumabang. This warship has a rather legendary history, it is

Canon-class frigates built by the United States during World War II. Later, the United States gave it to Japan, where it was called the Hatsuichi. After it was decommissioned by Japan, Japan gave it to the Philippines and pitted it against China's navy.

This information is all the text memory he left behind when he read the Philippine Navy materials on the way here.

There is a military base on the island, and a convoy is coming this way. At sea, the most powerful frigates of the Philippines are also heading in this direction. And at this time, he did not dare to call the armed patrol boat back. And then there's Yelena, who's probably driving a sampan fishing boat this way at the moment. These factors add up to create a terrible situation.

Coming to this island seems like a very presumptuous and even foolish decision.

However, Xia Lei smiled. He took out his satellite phone and dialed Yelena's number, "Yelena, where are you now?"

"It's 30 kilometers from the island you're talking about, and it's about half an hour away. Yelena said.

"Alright then, I'll wait for you on the north side of the island. Keep an eye out for the Philippine frigate, which is also heading to the island. Xia Lei said.

"Huh?" said Elena's voice of surprise.

Xia Lei didn't give any explanation, he hung up.

Erdemutu and Tsukino apricots emerge from the woods on the left and right.

"Boss!" Erdemutu looked worried, "I heard the call between you and Yelena, since you know that there is a frigate sailing this way, why do you want Yelena and them to come?"

"We need to get out of here!" said Kyoko Tsukino.

Xia Lei smiled and said: "I'm here to fight, how can I play without an enemy? If I fight with the United States, it's reasonable for me to hide, but if I hide from the Philippines, it's too much, right?"

Erdemutu smiled bitterly: "There is a military base on this island, and they also need a frigate." ”

"We also have reinforcements. Xia Lei's fingers tapped on the keyboard a few times, and an unmanned machine operation interface suddenly appeared on the screen of the hacker's computer.
