[Today we have a sudden circuit overhaul here, there was a power outage in the early morning, just called, and now this is only a chapter, sorry ......]

"Call base, call base, I'm a lion, I'm a lion."

"I'm number one, lion, please speak."

"The target's traces from 10 hours ago have been found, and it has been confirmed that it was safe at the time. The coordinates were 67, 33.65, and all signs indicated that they were heading northeast. ”

"Okay, you keep tracking, I'll let the team catch up and contact you."

Now that we're sure it's them, it's time to find them. After reporting the discovery to the base, Xu Ziling picked up his bag and left the operation.

The original plan was to detour from the northwest of the mountain range to the north, but now that it has been determined that Yang Kaiming and Li Cheng have passed the north and headed east, the original plan is not suitable. Now all he had to do was to catch up with them as fast as he could, and naturally he had to take shortcuts.

After discussing with the lion, Xu Ziling decided to give up the original line, and turn directly from the current southwest to the east, and then to the northeast, so that it would be a long distance shorter than the original line planned by Jilu, which could save a lot of time to the greatest extent, and they had a lot of time in advance to find Yang Kaiming.

The lion paid attention to Yang Kaiming's traces, and Xu Ziling paid attention to his own safety, which was a task assigned by the two of them. At 5 o'clock in the morning Afghanistan time, Xu Ziling looked at the sky while trotting. Fortunately at night, the armed men hiding in the mountains could not find themselves, but if it was daytime, the possibility of being found was greatly increased.

"It's getting light soon, and it looks like I'm going to have to pay attention. Even if it's a detour, you have to be careful at all times, if there is a sniper in this mountainous area who hides in a corner and shoots at me, I really can't help it. Thinking that the sky was going to be bright soon, Xu Ziling finished chattering, and his feet involuntarily sped up, wanting to take advantage of the dark night to hurry more.

The morning in winter is later than in summer, and it only dawned after Xu Ziling ran for two hours. At this time, Xu Ziling also had to start slowing down and began to pay attention to his whereabouts. In order to take advantage of the sky to hurry more, Xu Ziling ran with all his strength for these two hours, and with his physique, after running with all his strength for two hours, he also felt a little tired. And on the next road, he had to concentrate at all times and pay attention to his whereabouts, so he simply found a mountain rock behind him, sat down, and prepared to take a rest and recover his strength to cope with the next journey.

"Lion, what's the matter?" Xu Ziling drank water and ate dry food to replenish his energy while asking about the latest progress of the lion.

"Nope! Although you are running 30 kilometers, this is the actual distance, not a straight line. So my scanning range has only advanced less than ten kilometers, and there are no anomalies in this ten kilometers. It only shows that the two of them are still continuing to move a little north-east. ”

"Hmm......" Xu Ziling, who was holding dry food mixed with water in his mouth, heard the lion's answer, answered vaguely, and didn't ask anything anymore, swallowing the contents of his mouth vigorously.

While replenishing the energy lost by running at full strength for two hours, Xu Ziling looked at the map and compared his current position, and knew that as long as he crossed the mountain range due north of him, and then wanted to advance dozens of kilometers in the northeast direction, he would be inserted into Yang Kaiming's retreat line. Thinking that there was still such a long way to go, he didn't want to delay for a moment, and the dry food had not been completely swallowed in his mouth, so he clapped his hands, stood up and packed his things, picked up his bag and continued to embark on the journey.

The winter on the plateau is dry and cold, probably due to the climate, those militants hid in the cave and did not come out, Xu Ziling had a smooth journey, and did not meet any militants who went out. After crossing the mountains to the east, he began to walk down the mountain, which made it much easier for him.

So before noon, he arrived at Yang Kaiming's retreat route.

In a small forest on a hill, Xu Ziling saw the traces of the mercenaries who had rested here at night: a pile of dead branches that had not yet been completely burned, and dead grass that had been trampled to the ground everywhere beside it. Xu Ziling only glanced at it and was sure that this was the trace left by the mercenary team. Looking at their undisguised traces, Xu Ziling sneered: It seems that these people are used to arrogance, thinking that no one in the mountains can deal with them who are well-equipped and crowded.

There was no trace of them in the scanning range of the lion, so Xu Ziling didn't need to check in detail at all, and he knew that they should have only stayed here for a short time. So he didn't delay much, and after a little observation, he continued to follow the trail they had left behind.

Because of the guidance of the lion, Xu Ziling always paid attention to his whereabouts while running with all his strength from time to time, so the speed of the road was faster than that of Yang Kaiming and Li Cheng in front.

Yang Kaiming and the others also had to consider the direction of the line in front of them, as well as the traces of their own walking in order to delay the pursuers behind, so they naturally couldn't get up fast. And Xu Ziling is different, he doesn't think about anything except pay attention to his whereabouts, and he replenishes his physical strength from time to time, and his speed is not slow, as long as he chases hard. So after running behind them for two hours, the lion finally reminded him that the group of mercenaries had been spotted.

"Pass it and take a look." As soon as he heard the lion's reminder, Xu Ziling remembered the previous situation, and did not stop immediately, but ran for a distance of almost a thousand meters before stopping and letting the lion send the image.

In the distance, in a col, a group of heavily armed men and horses trotted forward in the shape of a snake. Although he had been prepared before, he was still shocked by the results he saw with his own eyes. There are as many as 12 people in total. All of them are well-equipped with a full set of U.S. military individual equipment, in addition to most of them holding M4A1 rifles, a large black mercenary also holds an M249 machine gun in his hand, and a white mercenary with a bandage on his arm carries an M25 sniper rifle on his back. Seeing the bandage on this sniper's hand, Xu Ziling knew that the bloody warhead before he had hit this guy. From this point of view, Yang Kaiming and the others found the other party's snipers before, and in order to defeat this threat, they set up an ambush at the place where Xu Ziling found the battle situation.

Looking at the equipment and personnel, Xu Ziling could think of how difficult it was for Yang Kaiming and Li Cheng to flee in the past few days. There are many people on the other side, and they can't beat them, and when they run, the other party always chases after them. Although he could see the two of them in the scanning range now, Xu Ziling could also imagine that the distance between them and the mercenaries was definitely not very far.

Xu Ziling could imagine that in the past few days, the two of them must not have had much time to rest, otherwise they would have caught up with them. Thinking of their exhausted appearance, Xu Ziling longed to have a pair of wings to fly to them at once.

Hurry, hurry, be sure to catch up. Xu Ziling said to himself in his heart.

The opening allows the lion to close the image and is preparing to hurry. The lion stopped him: "Don't run in a hurry, you can see the situation first." ”

"How?"

"Look at this."

The lion zoomed out the image from a bird's-eye angle, and Xu Ziling found that on the north peak of the mercenary team, a pair of centaurs appeared on the north side of the peak, and there were eight people on a closer look, and the clothes on their bodies clearly indicated that they were local militants.

"They want to sneak up on this group of mercenaries?" Looking at the AK in the hands of seven of the eight people, and the bazooka on the shoulder of one person, it was obvious that they were slowly moving towards the mercenary team on the side of the hill to the north of the mercenary.

If you want to talk about these militants, the most hated is probably the American GIs. I don't know how these people found out, typical US military equipment, coupled with the conspicuous figure of Westerners, it is strange that they don't look for trouble. Looking at the group of mercenaries who had not yet noticed it, Xu Ziling gloated in his heart.

Looking at the terrain, they should not do it immediately, because they are still some distance away from the mercenaries, this large area is relatively flat, and the militants prefer to launch their attacks in dangerous places, so they will not do it here, but will find a suitable terrain. It's a pity that no matter how far away it is, it is beyond the scanning range of the lion, and Xu Ziling can't guess for a while where they will choose to raid the mercenary team.

Xu Ziling also hoped that he could catch up with this business, but now the distance in a straight line is sixty kilometers, and although this area is no longer as many tall peaks as the Timlan Mountain Range, there are also countless undulating hills. In this way, Xu Ziling is at least eighty kilometers away from them.

How can you catch up? Xu Ziling continued to run while thinking about it.

If only there was a car. Xu Ziling, who has been running in the mountains for more than ten hours, now misses the usual driving time.

"Cars? yes, why didn't you think of it? As soon as he thought of the car, Xu Ziling saw that the current terrain was able to drive so-so.

"Lion, hurry up and help find any cars around here?"

"yes, I didn't think of that. Looking at this road condition, it can be opened to traffic. Wait, I'll find out right away. The lion was also happy with the method that Xu Ziling thought of, and said that he would act immediately.

On the plateau, the ground is composed of hard stones, the surface has been weathered for a long time, paved with a layer of broken stones, and now it is also out of the high mountains and mountains, and the mountains in front of you, as long as you are careful when driving, it is completely passable.

"It's good luck, there are really cars in the mountains. Even though it's a motorcycle, I think it's enough for you to use. A moment later, the lion cried out in surprise.
