Chapter 23: Confrontation (01)

A mere thunder knight has not been taken to heart, this is the most common trick in jungle warfare, it is inevitable that these government troops will encounter such difficulties, the first these guys are not well-trained, the second is that the environment here is really complicated, and the third is that the two enemies are scheming and difficult to deal with, so he has long been mentally prepared to pay a certain price for casualties, but he didn't expect it to come so quickly, but this time the attrition of five people did make him a little unexpected, the other party seemed to deliberately control the power when setting up the thunder, Mainly with killing as the main purpose rather than killing, deliberately creating psychological pressure and causing attrition to the maximum extent is really a good calculation, and the knight has to admire that these two bastards do have a set.

Soon they found that in fact, the most difficult to track is not as difficult as imagined, two people can hide their tracks, but the two robots cannot, the mark left is very obvious, after all, the size and weight of the thing are there, the traces of the four feet on the ground are clearly visible, following these traces, they easily found the direction of the two escapes, but it didn't take long for them to find that the footprints of the two were gone, only the rows of marks left by the robot, the knight knew very well that the two people were hiding their whereabouts, It is very likely that two robots were deliberately used to attract their attention, and the two people left on their own, this possibility is still quite large, and there is also a possibility that the two people deliberately did not leave traces, in order to confuse them, the knight asked people to search nearby and did not find other suspicious places, his subordinates have been fighting all year round, and have rich tracking experience, so it is unlikely that they will miss anything, as long as someone passes by, they will definitely leave clues, but it is more or less a problem, it is impossible to have no traces at all, So after comprehensive judgment, he came to the conclusion that the two people were using robots to travel.

"Keep chasing, their speed won't be too fast, it's impossible for quadruped robots to go at full speed in this kind of place, if we move fast enough, we can still catch up with them." The knight was not worried about this.

"Beware of the two of them deliberately using robots to get our attention, and then ambush us." Eels are still very cautious.

"Don't worry, it's unlikely that two people will attack 50 people." The knight seemed to be confident.

"Don't forget, they single-handedly killed an entire convoy last night." The eel reminded the knight that he had always felt that the two men were strange and bold, and that there seemed to be nothing they did not dare to do.

The knight smiled: "At this time and that time, it was just a surprise attack under the unpreparedness of the government army, we are different now, at least we are prepared, plus the ammunition has been consumed in the process of the attack, just now they should have run out of bullets to deal with drones, the biggest advantage of using a revolver machine gun is that it can provide powerful fire suppression, the disadvantage is that the ammunition is consumed too quickly, although they shot down the drone, but the bullet is almost digested, otherwise they would not have left the revolver machine gun there, So they shouldn't have much ammunition left now, do you think in this case, they will launch a counterattack against us again? ”

The eel didn't speak, and he had to admit that the knight's words were indeed very reasonable, and the analysis was quite thorough, but he always felt that there seemed to be something wrong with this matter, judging from the actions of these two people, these are two people who never play cards according to common sense, such people are the most difficult to deal with, because all their behaviors are irregular, and things are often unexpected, and such people must be extremely careful, otherwise they may end up not only suffering as simple as a loss, but are very likely to lose their lives.

In this way, the knight led the people to chase forward for two kilometers without incident, without encountering the thunder again, and there were no other emergencies, but soon the traces in front of them changed again, and from those traces, the two robots seemed to act separately and went in different directions.

"Break out separately? This further weakened their strength, and it was a foolish decision. "The eel doesn't seem to understand the behavior of these two people very well.

"Look at this trace......" The knight crouched on the ground and tossed with the weeds, and after a while he found in it an extremely inconspicuous half of a footprint, a little difficult to say that it was a footprint, and no one would have thought it was a footprint if it were not for the slightly vague outline of the front half outlining the shape of the sole of the foot.

The knight smiled and said: "The same as the mark we tracked before, from the same kind of combat boots, they did not divide the troops, but used a big dog robot to confuse us, the two of them lay on the body of a big dog robot to evacuate, and the other went in different directions, their intention is to disperse our forces, let us divide the troops in two different directions, although the idea is very good, but it is not particularly cautious, or let me catch the clues, they have tried to erase this mark, It's a pity that they didn't do it thoroughly, maybe they left in a hurry, maybe they felt that it was unlikely that they would leave any traces under such dense vegetation; Small tricks, not on the table. ”

"That is to say, we don't have to divide, just find the right direction and continue to chase?" The eel immediately understood what the knight captain meant.

"No, we have to divide our forces and fulfill their wishes." "It's just not the way they expected it," said the knight slyly; Divide the team into two parts, 50 meters apart......"

"It's ......" the eel didn't quite understand.

"Let them feel like we've been fooled, and as you said, they're likely to launch a counterattack, but only if they feel certain that they can win or get out of the way, and I think half of them can be tempted enough for them......"

The eel finally understood what he meant, the knight wanted to use half of the centaur as bait to attract those people to make a move, once the two sides encountered the follow-up half of the team could follow up in a short time to provide enough support firepower, this is an obvious fishing tactic.

"But didn't you say they couldn't fight back?" The eel was a little confused again.

"My premise is that our temptation is strong enough, and if they find that we are chasing very few people, do you think they will want to kill or maim us before leaving? Completely solve this trouble, they will go more calmly, of course, this opportunity has to be created for them......" The knight seemed to have a bamboo in his chest, "this matter has become a little interesting, we are no longer chasing two lost dogs, but a cunning wolf ......"

"I'll do it." The eel no longer hesitated, he felt that the captain seemed to be a little repetitive today, which was not normal compared to the past, but he couldn't figure out what the specific problem was, in short, the captain tossed a little frequently, and he couldn't keep up with the rhythm.

The eel quickly made a series of adjustments to the entire team, in order to match the captain's fishing tactics, he deliberately put the front group of people in a triangular formation to move forward, so that it seems that there are fewer people, maybe the temptation will be greater, and the front team is basically a government army dominated by Lieutenant Colonel Carson, although his brother is also divided into two teams, but the front is also in the position of the tail pressure formation, so that even if it encounters its own people, the damage is minimal.

But it didn't take long for the detachment to find that this road was really not as easy as before, there were a series of traps along the way, the knight was still quite familiar with these things, many of them were improved versions of the trap mechanisms used by hunters to catch animals, such as hanging wood and bamboo stick traps can be seen everywhere, these two things are simple to make, and materials can be obtained everywhere without wasting time, but the power is really not to be underestimated, especially the bamboo stick trap, although the camouflage trap is not too deep, But basically, as long as you step into it, you will definitely be drenched in blood by the dense bamboo sticks that will pierce the calves and soles, and the government can't afford to equip jungle combat boots, and ordinary shoes can't resist these things at all, so soon there are several wounded, although these people are not seriously injured, but all of them can't walk, plus those occasional hanging logs will hit some people with broken bones and tendons, and a large number of wounded will soon appear, and these people seem unlikely to be left behind, with and seriously slowed down the progress, And it also has to take up the care of a limited number of combat personnel, and although the knight expected a series of troubles, he really didn't expect such a situation to occur so soon.

"Centralize the management of the wounded and wait for the follow-up troops to respond, leaving a few men to protect the rest and continue to advance, Lieutenant Colonel Carson's men will follow, and my men will open the way." The knight finally realized that if this continued, his men would be consumed sooner or later, although the combat ability of the government army was not very good, but relying on the numerical advantage could still give the other party enough psychological pressure, so he decided to use his own people to explore the way to solve these traps, to a certain extent, to reduce the casualties of the government army to a certain extent, but also to preserve his strength, so he planned to transfer his own people to open the way while taking other brothers to move to the front to plunder the formation.

The brother who is the best at jungle tracking under the knight is called Buck, although this guy is tall and big, but he has excellent skills and quite rich experience in jungle tracking, this guy walked in front with the cooperation of the eel, and sure enough, he quickly found and dismantled a large number of traps, although the speed slowed down, but there were no more casualties, the knight finally breathed a sigh of relief, the enemy will definitely consume some time to make traps along the way, so the speed is definitely not too fast, and he is not worried about being thrown off, It's just that this kind of battle that didn't meet seems to have lost a chip, and the enemy has successfully reduced their combat power, but he is not worried about this, after all, there are only two people on the other side, and he still has enough chips to fight with these two people......
