Chapter 43: Sneak Attack

It was the end of March, and it was past the beginning of spring, when the night came later than it used to be.

Under the thick pile of dead grass, Captain Toyono lifted his frozen iron-blue face, reached out and rubbed his frozen muscles, he blinked, and after his vision was clear, he looked into the sky.

There was no moon tonight, only a little light shone through the clouds, and there was silence all around, except for the occasional gunfire in the distance.

At this time, at the beginning of the night, after a whole white battle, the soldiers on both sides were exhausted, so the commanders withdrew their troops one after another, allowing the soldiers who had been fighting all day to rest, and this time the night attack was too early. So this is a rare time of quiet.

It's also a rare marching time...

Captain Toyoda moved his stiff fingers and crawled out of the haystack.

"Assemble, Ready to Go"

With his order, nearly two hundred devils rushed out of the woods behind him, and they shook off the fallen leaves and dead grass on their bodies and gathered in front of Captain Toyono.

"Go and notify the alert detachment"

By the faint light, Captain Toyono found that the detachment in charge of the alert and the team leader had not yet assembled, so he pointed to a few soldiers to inform the soldiers of the alert detachment to assemble. At the same time, he was slightly satisfied in his heart, the captain did not return to the woods, and the captain of the guard post was very conscientious. It's much colder to hide outside than to hide in the woods.

Several soldiers immediately walked from the ranks into the darkness outside the woods. They are members of the guard team and know exactly where the guard post is.

After waiting quietly for ten minutes, the soldiers who went out still did not return.

What's going on? Are you lazy? Captain Toyono frowned and waited for a few more minutes, and the three soldiers who had gone out finally came back two.

"Squadron leader, we didn't find them" one of the soldiers reported the situation.

"I didn't find the direction I'm responsible for," the other soldier said.

"What's going on?"

Captain Toyono vaguely felt that something was not good. The duty of the guard post is to be responsible for the perimeter of the troop camp, the squadron-level hidden camp, the guard range is about 500 meters, at this distance, their own assembly action will be discovered by the guard post, so as long as he sends soldiers to notify, the guard post should return to the team on its own. Moreover, the soldiers who go out to inform are generally not hidden, and the guard post will inevitably be able to find out.

"How far have you come?" He asked a few soldiers who had gone to inform the guard post.

800 meters, 800 meters, two identical answers.

"All hidden, wait..." Captain Toyono, who did not notice anything unusual, first ordered his subordinates to hide, then took out his binoculars, and he hid behind a tree, observing the surroundings by the dim light.

After looking around several times, he didn't find any movement, and there was no trace of the enemy.

And so on...

He suddenly thought of a question at this time, just now he had gone out with three soldiers to inform him, and only two had returned, and his observation had not found any movement, and now, twenty minutes had passed since he sent out to inform the soldiers.

Unless something unexpected happens, it's impossible not to come back for such a long time without reporting it.

Quickly prostrate on the ground, he held the binoculars and carefully observed the direction in which the third soldier was leaving.

His vision was still pitch black, and there was no movement.

"Go and see, be vigilant, and try not to shoot," lowered his eyes, and after thinking for a moment, he ordered a detachment to go and reconnoitre.

Once the shot may expose them, this will lead to the failure of the mission.

A detachment of twelve devils walked from the woods to the direction where the third soldier had left, this detachment leader took the lead and walked in the forefront, while his detachment was fanned out, and they walked all the way along the concealment, while vigilantly observing the surroundings, until they walked for almost nine hundred meters, and only stopped when they were about to reach a flat ground.

There was no problem, but the soldier who went out to inform was also not found.

Then, there is a high probability that there are enemies around. The detachment leader came to this conclusion in his heart.

Carefully looked at the flat land in the distance, at this time the night has gradually deepened, with the help of visual vision can only see the distance of dozens of meters in the distance, inevitably, the team leader did not find any problems.

"Withdraw..."

Taking a light breath, the detachment leader decided to retreat. It is close to a kilometer away from the squadron, and in the event of an accident, the squadron leader will not be able to come to support.

"Gather together, keep your heart under your feet, and watch your surroundings"

The devil detachment gathered the twelve devils in the detachment, only one meter apart from each other, and they formed a semicircle, retreating towards the woods while being vigilant in all directions.

However, in the blind spot of their vision, Luo Yun was holding two recurve knives, with extraordinary vision, he looked at a devil, and walked slowly towards the devil, his steps were synchronized with the devil he was staring at, the devil took one step and he took one step, but his steps were far bigger than the devil, so thirty seconds later he came to the devil.

Luo Yun, who was dressed in self-made camouflage, hid in the haystack behind the devil, even though he was only less than ten steps away from each other, the devil still didn't notice him.

Looking at the twelve slowly retreating devil soldiers in front of him, Luo Yun was a little hesitant in his heart.

These twelve devil soldiers are very vigilant, twelve people besiege the city in a semicircle, maintaining a high degree of vigilance in all directions, it is almost impossible to kill a few people silently without being detected, and he has no ability to kill twelve devils at the same time and ensure that they do not make a sound.

As for using a gun for a while, you can kill them all, but then you will be exposed. There are dense forests and grasses all over here, and once the devils scatter and escape, he really can't wipe them all out. Escaping a devil is a loss of a box, that is, running away from a devil is the loss of five tons of supplies.

Blood deficit ······

Just when Luo Yun hesitated and followed the devil detachment synchronously, a slope appeared in front of him, and there was a road in the center of the slope, and the devils had to switch formations if they wanted the mountain slope.

And this slope is only about two hundred meters away from the woodland where the devils are hiding.

Opportunity! Luo Yun's eyes flickered, and he suddenly had an idea in his heart.

Stepping on the rhythm of the devil's footsteps, he strode all the way to the bottom of the slope through the blind spot of the devil's vision, found a dirt ditch and hid it, and only held the two recurve knives in his hands.

Sure enough, when passing the slope, the devils did not go uphill together, but went uphill one by one along the existing path, and after going uphill, they stood on the slope together to organize a guard formation again.

Luo Yun didn't attack the two devils who went uphill at the end, it would definitely be discovered, and the time he chose was the gathering moment after the devil hill. At that time, the devils will be reorganized, and less than two hundred meters in front is the camp of the devil squadron, and the devils will inevitably let their guard down.

Seeing the last devil walking up the hill, Luo Yun's eyes flashed suddenly, and he rushed up suddenly.
