Chapter 30, The Devil's Jungle

"Good afternoon, everyone, well, it's still morning, hehe...... This is the crossing TV, I am the host Han Dazui, just now the Guah Island series ended again, and the result was that the United States team defeated the Japanese team with a disparity score of 24:0. Next, I would like to invite our special guest, Mr. Song Zhaoyan, director of the Control Bureau, to comment on this battle. ”

"Good afternoon, everyone...... Dizzy, I was wrapped around by Han's big mouth +_+......"

"The audience with the tail number 8175 sent a text message saying: 'Is the score so disparity unexpected by the guests?' ”

"Personally, I think it's just a reasonable result, the U.S. military has a home advantage, a larger number of people, and controls the intelligence advantage in advance, so it is reasonable to win. On the other hand, Japan has made a series of mistakes, the biggest of which is that it does not love Taiwan. ”

"Excuse me, does this have anything to do with 'loving Taiwan'?"

"It doesn't matter, if you 'love Taiwan' and use the flight team stationed in Taiwan to participate in the war, the performance will definitely be better."

"Do you think changing players can change the tide of battle?"

"It's not enough to just change the players, the key is to change the head coach, well, it's definitely okay to change Mr. Masao Iwasato. I don't believe that when the Taiwan series begins, I expect that we will be able to sink 13 US aircraft carriers and sink and damage dozens of other ships in one go. In short, everything is in control. ”

,One,Ben,Read #Novel xstxt Hidenobu Takeda is a navigator of a Type 1 land attack. During the attack just now, the engine on the side of the plane he was on was hit. Originally, for twin-engine aircraft, one engine shutdown was not too fatal a problem, because there was one left. But the worst thing was that the engine caught fire. From the window, you can see that the engine compartment is spewing out flames, and small explosions are constantly occurring. Everyone in the cabin understood that the plane would not last long.

"Get ready to skydive!" Captain Yuo Kato shouted. All the people who were still alive began to scramble to carry umbrella bags and put on life jackets.

When the people on the plane jumped off the plane one by one, the plane was already very close to the sea. As soon as Takeda jumped out of the cabin, he saw the plane sink headlong into the sea.

"The captain hasn't come out yet!" Takeda thought.

The height of the skydive was not high, and almost as soon as the parachute was opened, several people fell into the sea. In addition, there was no wind on this day, so the location of several people falling into the water was not too far away. After falling into the water, the sound of shouting to each other can also be heard.

"Kobayashi-kun? You okay? Takeda saw that the closest machine gunner was Sadao Kobayashi, and shouted at him.

"I'm fine! Takeda-kun, are you alright? ”

"It's fine. What about Komatsu-kun? ”

"I saw him fall a little in front, but he's definitely fine." Sadao Kobayashi replied, "Komatsu-kun is from Fukushima, and he used to be a fisherman, so he has good swimming skills." ”

"Is it Kobayashi and Takeda?" A voice came from afar.

"Ah, it's Komatsu-kun." The two people who had just swam together shouted together, "Komatsu-kun, it's us." ”

The three of them quickly swam to one place. Then they swam to the island together.

Luckily, the skydive landed not far from Kuah Island, about less than a kilometer. If it is shot down on the vast ocean, and there is no friendly army to help, I am afraid that there is only one way to die of thirst.

It's just that the machine gunner Kobayashi was slightly wounded among the three, and a 7.62 mm bullet broke a little finger of his right hand. Takeda used a triangular scarf to help him bandage his injured finger firmly. But now, in the process of paddling, the sea water gradually seeped in, making the wound more and more painful. Moreover, a trace of blood slowly seeped into the sea water through the gauze of the triangular scarf.

"It's finally here," Komatsu sighed, who was swimming in front, as he looked at the beach just 100 meters away. In normal times, swimming more than 1,000 meters is nothing to him. But now after experiencing the attack and crashing and parachuting, he is also tired enough.

When he looked back, he saw that Takeda was still behind him, less than a few meters away. And Xiao Lin was a little behind, and he was already about ten meters away. And both of them were gasping for air just like him.

"Takeda-kun, Kobayashi-kun, work harder, and you'll be on the shore soon." Komatsu cheered loudly for his teammates.

"Okay, keep it up." Takeda replied with a smile, "Although there are enough bad luck today, it is undoubtedly a good thing that the land is not far away." He turned his head again and shouted to Xiao Lin, "Xiao Lin-kun, can you still swim?" ”

Xiao Lin waved his wounded right hand at him, and he could see that blood had seeped out of the place where the triangular scarf was bandaged, staining the gauze red. Kobayashi also smiled and replied, "I'm ......"

Before he finished speaking, Xiao Lin suddenly disappeared into the sea.

Takeda didn't react at all at the time, and he even thought, "What the hell is Kobayashi doing, and suddenly he started diving." ”

But the face of Komatsu behind him changed greatly, "Shark! He exclaimed. He knows more about the sea, and he knows that Xiao Lin, who is wearing a life jacket, will never be able to dive even if he wants to play diving. There was only one reason why he sank, and that was sharks!

It seemed to confirm his cry. Kobayashi suddenly came out of the water again, and at the same time set off red and white waves. Now Takeda can clearly see that Kobayashi's entire lower body is bitten in the mouth by a huge shark.

Kobayashi struck the shark on the head violently, and the shark also swung its body wildly, shaking off Kobayashi who had bitten in its mouth, splashing a huge, bright red wave. Just as the shark smashed Kobayashi's upper body on the surface of the sea, another big mouth suddenly appeared. With just one bite, the newly emerged shark bit Kobayashi's upper body with his head and most of his shoulders and chest into his mouth, and then the two huge sharks tore violently, and Kobayashi was stopped and withdrawn in half. Blood and internal organs flowed out of the breach, and the sea was stained red.

"Ahh Takeda let out a terrible scream, turned around and swam frantically towards the shore, a little ahead of him, Komatsu was also frantically swimming towards the shore.

Behind them, the sea was already boiling, and more black dorsal fins appeared on the surface, and if there was a marine biologist here, he would have recognized the smaller star sharks, the slightly larger bull sharks, and the largest and most ferocious great white sharks. They were all attracted by the smell of blood oozing from the wounds on Xiao Lin's fingers to participate in this feast at sea.

Komatsu, who was born as a fisherman, swam the fastest, and in the blink of an eye, he was on the shore. Komatsu later recalled that it was the fastest swim he had ever swam in his life.

Takeda, who was following him, also burst out with super speed, almost stepping onto the beach with Komatsu.

After stumbling and crawling on the beach for a while, the two people who had been out of danger fell on the beach almost at the same time, motionless, and if it weren't for the fact that their bodies were still heaving with the rapid breathing, they would have looked like they were dead.

After a while, Komatsu and Takeda slowly turned over and stared blankly at the sea not far away. It's quiet now. The dinner is over, and the sharks have left. Only a few seabirds are still hovering there.

I don't know how long they've been sitting on the beach, maybe a few minutes, maybe centuries. It took both men to remember that exposure to the beach is also dangerous. So they staggered to their feet and walked into the jungle.

Both Komatsu and Takeda knew that there were troops of the Imperial Japanese Army on the island in addition to the beautiful animals. After the battle at the mouth of the Tainaru River on August 21, the Ichiki detachment was almost completely annihilated, and the remaining dozens of remnants retreated into the dense jungle of Kuah Island. After that, the Japanese navy used destroyers to send some troops to the island one after another. However, these troops did not have any heavy weapons, and there was no possibility of capturing the airfield. However, for Komatsu and Takeda, whether they can find this imperial army force now is the key to whether they can survive.

Takeda originally had a map of Kuah Island, which showed the location of the area controlled by the Japanese army. But during the parachute jump, the map was thrown on the plane. Now the two of them can only rely on luck to wander around in the dense forest.

For an entire afternoon, the two men wandered around the jungle. They were completely disoriented, and they only knew that they were walking and walking. As time passed, the woods grew darker and darker. The exhausted two men stopped under an old tree and looked up at its massive dark canopy. The canopy stretched out and joined the other canopies, as if forming a vast and boundless net. These giant-like trees, hugging each other tightly with their thick branches, digging their intertwined roots deep into the slippery sludge of the mire. In the daytime, these stone-like trees stood silently and motionlessly in the gray mist, but at dusk they pressed close around the people, as if to overwhelm them. A gust of wind blew, and the whole forest was gloomy and noisy, as if a funeral song was being sung for them again. This is a common thunderstorm in the posttropical twilight. Rumbling thunder resounded over the forest, and the trees were gloomy and majestic. The jungle became very dark, as if all the nights since the birth of the world had gathered in it at once. In order to escape the torrential rain, the two men huddled tightly under the giant-like trees. And the giant-like trees kept creaking and roaring angry songs. A bolt of lightning lit up the entire jungle with its cyan light, and under the light of this electric light, all the trees seemed to come to life. Countless long, curved hands stretched out in all directions, forming a dense net and surrounding them. And in the darkness, there seemed to be something terrible, dark and cold, secretly watching them.

After a thrilling night, Komatsu developed a high fever, and Takeda helped him through the jungle of dense vines.

The good signs finally appeared, the trees in front of them began to thin out, and a small river appeared in front of them. The clear river glows golden in the sun.

"Water, water......" Komatsu muttered weakly.

"Hold on, Komatsu-kun, it's coming soon." Takeda helped Komatsu to the river, then picked up a handful of water in the river and drank it, "It's so sweet!" Takeda sighed. He picked up a handful of cool river water with both hands and brought it to Komatsu's mouth.

Komatsu looked at Takeda, and he saw Goten's smiling face at him. He said to him in a weakened voice, "He's really troubled you. ”

At this moment, without warning, Takeda's head burst open like a watermelon, and blood and brains sprayed Komatsu's body. Then, a gunshot rang out. Komatsu looked over to the spot where the shots had been fired and saw several American soldiers running towards him. Komatsu knew he wouldn't be spared, so he pulled out his southern pistol and pointed it to his chest, pulling the bolt. With a "click", the gun was dumbfounded. And Komatsu, who was already weak because of a high fever, suddenly fell into a coma.
