Chapter 235: "The Ranger"

After a whole day's rushing, coupled with the miasma just after nightfall, all the members of our "Warrior Squad" are already very tired in terms of physical strength and energy, this tired feeling is not like the training we participated in before or the "Devil's Week" or the like, because of the weakening of physical strength caused by physical exhaustion, but now, we are starting to weaken from the energy, plus we have inhaled more or less harmful gases in the miasma, and now we are not only physically and mentally exhausted, but even a little dizzy and nauseous, you know, even when the Chinese expeditionary force returned to China through the Savage Mountain, there were so many people, and there were not a few people who fainted and died in the miasma unconsciously.

It was late at night when we rested in the relative safety of the jungle, and instead of setting up camp, we simply used sleeping bags, keeping a certain distance between each team member, and holding weapons and firearms in our arms to ensure that we could respond immediately if there was a situation.

However, this night, whether it was on shift guard, or having been resting in the sleeping bag, I can say with certainty that no one had a good night's sleep, not that we had a short rest, nor because we were worried about what would happen again, but it was really uncomfortable, for example, after I inhaled the miasma, and after a short distance of rapid marching, I slept in the sleeping bag for a long time, and the nausea in my heart came to my heart again, and I vomited directly.

There are not a few people like me in our "Warrior Squad", and even more so, they vomited everything they had eaten the night before they left. In order not to leave too many traces, we dug pits to bury our vomit and excrement, but this night, we dug four pits back and forth, so you can imagine how difficult it was for us to rest this night.

Yesterday when we arrived it was still cloudy, and even a little rain, but this night was clear and clear, but we were in the primeval jungle, the top of our heads is dense, criss-crossing branches and leaves, we can only see the sky from time to time, if you want to find a place where you can look up at the whole sky, you basically have to walk several kilometers to meet one.

After waking up, the "Night Vulture" began to look for some details in the surrounding jungle with his special experience of growing up in the mountains, so as to help our entire "Warrior Squad" find their way out of this place with an underground magnetic field, and then continue to move towards our next mission point.

All of our team members packed up their gear and backpacks, and once again covered up and eliminated the traces of their previous night to the present, but after we had done all this, the "Night Vultures" still failed to find any useful clues.

"How's it going, 'Night Vulture'?" One of the team members asked cautiously at the "Night Vulture", for fear of disturbing the "Night Vulture" who was looking for clues.

I saw that the "Night Vulture" heard the words of the team member, and did not show any different expression, but stood up from the ground and shook his head gently at us, "No, the jungle environment here is different from what I have encountered in the mountains before, and I can't easily find what we want now." ”

Hearing the words of the "Night Vulture", the hearts of the rest of our team members suddenly felt a suffocation in their hearts. In our entire "Warrior Squad", if we want to talk about the jungle experience, "Night Vulture" says second, no one dares to say first, but now, even "Night Vulture" has shaken his head, then it will be really too difficult for the rest of us to find out what can provide clues to our successful escape.

"I'll go up and take a look, according to the growth pattern of the trees, it should be able to tell from the canopy, but the trees here are too dense to be observed below." The "Night Vulture" said to us, pointing to the intertwined branches above him.

Seeing that we did not continue to speak, nor did we raise any objections, the "night vulture" was really like a monkey with no hair, and with the help of a rope, he jumped directly to a large tree with at least two people hugging each other, and with the help of a rope, he flicked, pulled, pulled, and retracted, and jumped directly onto the trunk, and then continued to repeat the previous action.

After about three or four minutes, the "Night Vulture" had already climbed close to the canopy of the tree, which was the thickness of two people hugging each other.

After standing there and observing for a while, the "night vulture" did not say anything to us and did not immediately come down from the tree, but suddenly made a gesture to us - be on alert!

As soon as we looked at it, we immediately realized that the "Night Vulture" had encountered a situation! This gesture was stopped, and we immediately crouched, or lay down, or find cover, and suddenly hid in the jungle in front of us, while the "night vulture" was still hiding in the tree and observing.

"An armed man is approaching, one hundred and fifty meters away!" The "night vultures" hid in the trees and spoke to us in sign language.

"One hundred meters!" "Fifty meters!" "Thirty meters!" Every once in a while, the distance between the armed man who was approaching us would be reported to us by the "Night Vulture" who was standing high and observing. Because the vegetation in the primeval jungle is not like the mountains outside, few people will set foot here, the natural ecology is relatively well preserved, the forest leaves are thick, the vegetation is dense, if you want to find a person on the same level, as long as it exceeds fifty meters, the other party will deliberately hide it a little, even if it is a professional special combat team, at a glance, if you want to find the other party, it is a certain difficulty.

We all took cover from the natural shelter provided to us by this primeval jungle, quietly waiting for the armed man to arrive.

Gradually, we were able to find an armed man walking towards us in our position through the gaps between the bushes, but we did not jump out of our hiding place as soon as we found it, but waited until he reached the center of our team's concealment, and almost everyone suddenly stood up.

"Hands up! Stop resisting! "We don't know how many times we have rehearsed this sound, so that we can all shout it in unison, even if it is in order, and we can still be together in the end.

When the man saw us, more than a dozen people suddenly jumped out, and more than a dozen black holes were pointed at him, and the gun in his hand suddenly didn't know where to point, and looked at us with a look of astonishment, full of incredulity.

Seeing him stunned in place, a team member close to him went up and snatched the gun in his hand, and when he got closer, it was an old five or six, "What are you doing!" As soon as the team member snatched the gun from his hand, the other team members asked loudly while pointing their guns at him.

"I ...... I...... I am...... That one...... The ...... saw that the man had been hesitant for a long time and had not been able to utter a complete sentence.

"Tell me honestly! Don't think about it. While the armed man was talking, one of the team members went up and kicked him to the ground, then put his hand on his waist and pulled out a pistol.

Seeing this scene, the rest of our team members walked a few steps towards him, and almost didn't miss the barrel of the gun directly on him.

"I ...... I..... I am...... I'm the ...... That one...... I'm a ranger here! Right! I'm a ranger! Who are you! Why is it here! You ......" The armed man seemed to have been awakened by a kick from the team, as if suddenly he remembered who he was, and as he spoke, he looked at us carefully for a while, and then said, "You are mercenaries?" ”

"Fuck you! We are ......" one of the team members scolded, and was about to say something when he was stopped by a member of the command team.

"Don't care who we are, you say you're a forest ranger, but this is a border area, what kind of forest do you protect? Also, where did you get the gun in your hand, especially this pistol! The member of the command team asked him as he shook the pistol he had just snatched from him.

"It's at least ten kilometers from the border! I'm a forest ranger, am I not properly equipped with a gun? This pistol, this pistol is, I picked it up in the mountains these days, and you know, there are often some people walking around the border line and dropping some guns and bullets or something, not for nothing. "The armed man who claimed to be a ranger seemed to finally know who he was, and suddenly he started asking us questions with all of a sudden." Who the hell are you! What do you want to do! ”

Since we are a border operation, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, we do not wear the armbands and national flags that are incurred, and our military uniforms are different from those of ordinary border armed police, so it is normal for him not to recognize them at a glance.

"Again, you don't care who we are, what do we want to do here, since you said you are a forest ranger, then you must be familiar with the road around here." After a few of us glanced at each other and exchanged glances, another member of the command team spoke again to the armed man who claimed to be a ranger.
