Chapter 189: Yizhou Jia Long

Jun looks at the dragon lying in three winters, and the head horns do not compete with the snake. ----------Southern song dynasty. Zhu Xi "Zodiac Poems"

It is said that Chen Long and his own special fighters crossed the Xiangjiang River at night with fire oil and burned Zhang Yun's warship. Although it was not as good as the 800,000 Cao soldiers in Chibi, it was enough for Zhang Yun to oppress the main force of the naval army in Changsha.

After Chen Long waited for the sky to be bright, organized people to go to Xi Zhicai, Huang Zhong, Zhao Yun and others to report the news, and personally brought a thousand people to clean up the battlefield, hoping to find some evidence of Liu Biao and Liu Yan's cooperation.

The burned warship stood in the water like ruins, Chen Long searched for a long time, but found no valuable clues, and couldn't help but admire Zhang Yunhui's cleanliness and resoluteness.

On the west bank of the Xiangjiang River, in a sparse forest, an ordinary military tent is stationed, with messy footprints all over the ground, apparently not long after it was demolished. Chen Long accidentally discovered that some of the footprints did not lead to the river, but disappeared into the mountainous jungle to the north. Chen Long guessed that Zhang Yun should have left the reconnaissance force behind, which happened to be the target of his counter-reconnaissance.

Chen Long ordered Sun Da and Hao Pu to lead the team, and all of them withdrew to Baling, and Hao Pu led the troops to Changsha Zhao Yun to report the news. He only took Lu Chang and went deep into the jungle to track him down.

Jungle tracking is one of the important courses that Chen Long listed for special forces. Before the crossing, Chen Long's achievements in this area were also excellent. To track down the enemy and avoid detection, you must have a keen sense of smell, careful observation, and a natural instinct to be familiar with the wind and grass of nature.

At the moment of stepping into the jungle path, Long Chen stopped, carefully observed the situation of leaves and branches being swept by the human body, as well as the footprints underground, and preliminarily judged that the force left behind to reconnoiter should be about 300 people. Lu Chang stood aside, naturally familiar with the lord's every move, and his eyes were also observing the situation of the grass and trees on the left and right.

Chen Long bent down and twisted a handful of fine soil, and then let the fine soil slowly fall with the wind on his fingertips like an hourglass, observed for a moment, and smiled at Lu Chang: "Judging the direction of the wind and the magnitude of the wind is the best guide." The direction in which the soil falls is not only the direction of the wind, but also indicates the direction of the enemy's activities, which is the so-called wind showing its tracks. In addition, the breeze is the most suitable for finding traces, the wind is too strong to find the traces, and it is necessary to be located at the end of the forest at the end of the wind as much as possible, so as to go upwind to avoid being sniffed by the enemy downwind first, and make an ambush in advance. ”

As he spoke, he pointed to the other end of the jungle, and the two of them started to dive in from the forest end and began to march towards the jungle. Both of them held their breath and quietly moved forward, after all, the two of them were probably also hunting veterans who were lurking in the jungle and good at hiding.

During the journey, Chen Long found a cave that leaned into the sand, located at the bottom of a dirt bag slightly higher than the flat ground and not covered by too much vegetation, the diameter of the cave entrance was about seventy centimeters, Chen Long smiled and pointed to the tall dirt bag and said: "Lu Chang, teach you another trick, what do you think this is?"

Lu Chang looked carefully at the mouth of the Tubao Cave and said, "It seems to be the cave of some insects and ants?"

Long Chen smiled: "It is indeed a mountain bag nest of earth ants. Do you know what they're used for tracking in the field?"

Lu Chang was puzzled: "It's just an ant, and it can also guide tracking?"

Chen Long suddenly grabbed a termite that was crawling out, stuffed it into his mouth and said, "It's food, good protein." Food is the most indispensable thing to survive in the wild. Lu Chang Chen Long chewed live termites, and suddenly felt like vomiting.

Seeing this, Long Chen smiled and pointed to the cave, "Look at this cave, I'm afraid it's the masterpiece of anteaters." Anteaters can eat between five and sixty thousand termites or earth ants in one meal, and are adept at burrowing, and when they emerge from the top of the nest, the termite nest is served in a pot. Of course, in order to survive, the anteater itself is also a rare delicacy, and it leaves behind a deep burrow, which is enough for the two of us to shelter from the rain for the night. ”

Lu Chang listened to it very freshly, and he was amazed, and said: "I am fortunate to be taught by the Lord by example, which is really rewarding. Indeed, these experiences are by no means simple training and self-exploration.

Of course, Chen Long was willing to give it to him, and continued: "If you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools. If you are embarrassed by being chased and lose all your weapons, you need to make the most primitive tools and weapons according to local conditions. As he spoke, he took Lu Chang to approach a cluster of bushes, stopped and said: "To make a bow and arrow, the material must be the stems and branches of some kind of tough plants to be used as the bow body, which is full of tenacity, strong rebound, and light and easy to carry, which is very suitable for tracking prey in the jungle." Lu Chang nodded yes.

"As for the bowstring, it can generally be woven with strong animal tendons, or the cortical fibers on the animal's body." Lu Chang was dumbfounded and said, "What is cortical fiber?"

Chen Long couldn't help but secretly curse himself for being too happy when he said it, and hurriedly covered it up: "That's what animal fur tissue means." After that, he quickly forked his way and said: "The material of the arrow is also from the same shrub as the bow body, and the material is straighter and thinner. ”

Lu Chang nodded and said, "However, with such a thin wooden arrow, I'm afraid it is difficult to kill it with one blow like an iron arrow." ”

Chen Long smiled: "If you want to kill with one blow, it is not difficult. As he spoke, he pushed aside another bush, and Lu Chang saw a small emerald green snake wrapped around the branches of the bush.

Chen Long made a lightning shot and grabbed the neck of the little green snake, the little snake instantly opened its big mouth to show its big teeth, Chen Long took a berry and brought it to the little snake, the little snake bit it and injected venom into the berry. Chen Long continued while abusing the little snake: "The little green snake only represents a kind of poison in nature, it injects venom into the juice of the fruit, and then evenly smears the juice of the fruit on the wooden arrowhead, are you afraid that it will not be fatal with one blow?" Other poisonous plants or insects can also achieve the same results. Lu Changting's brain was opened, it turned out that survival and hunting in the wild was so mysterious.

Chen Long put the little snake in his hand, threw the berries that the little snake had bitten to the ground, and stepped on it. The two walked and talked, and gradually went deeper into the jungle. With more than 300 troops, the traces of crossing the jungle are very obvious, and Chen Long analyzed that he should be able to catch up with this group of Jingzhou scouts at night.

At night, it is completely dark, and it is difficult to see even the bright moon in the mountains. With their superhuman senses, Long Chen and Lu Chang continued to track along the way. Long Chen was more cautious at this time, knowing that even if he stepped on a dead branch, the sound would spread far away in such a silent night.

The mountain wind was extremely cold, Chen Long discerned the direction of the wind, and suddenly whispered: "What do you smell in the wind?" Lu Chang sucked vigorously a few times and shook his head blankly.

Chen Long raised his hand to make a silent gesture, and attached himself to Lu Chang's ear for a long time and said, "It's the smell of human urine!" Lu Chang, who was squatting on the ground, stood up suddenly, the sharp dagger was already in his hand, pointing in a direction in the night.

Long Chen nodded, and also pulled the dagger out of the boot, and the two of them walked to the upper wind in the dark night, one left and one right. The enemy had apparently taken a break from his tent, and it was a good opportunity to hear the news.

A grove of trees had been cut down in the middle of the woods, revealing the silhouettes of several military tents that were blackened. Guards and rangers had torches in their hands, and around several tents, and about every half hour there were patrols crossing each other.

Chen Long saw the changing of the guard soldiers entering and exiting the military tents on both sides, only the military tent in the middle was lit up, and many soldiers were guarding outside the military tents. Chen Long made a gesture, and Lu Chang understood, and silently dived into the night.

After a while, there was a distant sound of a tree branch breaking, which sounded particularly harsh in the night. Immediately, several guards rushed to the position where the sound came from, and in Chen Long's eyes, he immediately identified the defensive gap in the torch light, and his body shook, and from that gap, he drilled into the bottom of the military tent, and with a slight pry of the dagger, his body was already embedded in the gap at the bottom of the military tent, and then his body had already drilled in.

Under the dim light in the military tent, a small low screen appeared in front of Chen Long's eyes, and Chen Long immediately burrowed into the shadow of the screen without making a sound.

There were noticeable voices of two men breathing in the tent, but they remained silent. Chen Long waited patiently, knowing that the people in the military tent would not communicate until their subordinates reported. Sure enough, the sound of footsteps came, and he walked into the military tent, and a steady voice came: "General Cai and Jia Zhen should be nocturnal animals, and their subordinates have not found any traces of people." ”

Another heavy voice sounded: "General Zhang is a jungle master, so he can naturally see it clearly. Jia doesn't have to worry about it now. "It turned out that it was General Cai who spoke.

A slightly shrill voice said, "This is natural. However, that Chen Long heard that he was very amazing and brilliant, and you and I must not take it lightly. He once helped our lord to capture Hanzhong, easily won Chang'an, and coerced the Son of Heaven to order the princes, this time he raised his hand and burned dozens of warships of General Zhang Yun, which is simply the devil in the war. ”

Chen Long heard that the other party had such a high evaluation of himself, and he had actually become a nightmare for many warlords, no wonder they all joined forces to try their best to deal with him, after all, he did rise too fast, and it was easy to become the target of public criticism. However, this time the gain is not small, but it is confirmed that Liu Yan participated in this battle, but I don't know which person this Jia Yan is under Liu Yan? In Chen Long's brain, he couldn't help but start retrieving the light brain.

General Cai said with a fierce look in his eyes: "Hmph, what you can't do, this time there are strange soldiers arranged by Mr. Jia, and the soldiers of Lingling will suffer a big loss." If I were to capture Long Chen, he would be worse off than dead, and he would dare to compete with my lord for Jingzhou! ”

This General Cai is obviously a brave and unscrupulous guy, and the exit is not ashamed, Chen Long really wants to stick out his head to see which person of the Cai family in Jingzhou is this, it is estimated that it is a younger brother in the Cai Mao family, who can accompany Yizhou Jia to the front line, and his status should not be too low.

Na Jia's voice sounded again: "Although Long Chen destroyed the warship, he also revealed his whereabouts in Baling. Zhao Yun's army is already in Changsha, and Chen Long is beside him, and it is believed that there are no more than 100 people. This person has always been conceited, and General Zhang can plan to capture or kill him on the road. ”

Chen Long thought to himself, it turned out that he was the authentic prey, but he didn't expect Zhang Yun to be ruthless enough to arrange for himself to be a special force in Yizhou. If you are unprepared, I am afraid that you will really fall into the trap of encirclement.

The general seemed to be very low-key, slightly agreed, and turned his head to go. Na Jia continued to communicate with General Cai in a whisper, and Chen Long's brain suddenly locked on the name of Liu Yan's subordinates in Yizhou in the official history, and Yizhou was engaged in Jia Long.
