Chapter Forty-Nine: The Barren Mountain Pursuit
Li Dongsheng and Hong Hu looked at the two or three individual rations and empty water bottles that each team member took out with licking their chapped lips, and shook their heads secretly. They knew that the pursuit had entered the most difficult period. Now the first thing to do is to solve the problem of drinking water. Food can be eaten sparingly, but water cannot be left unreplenished.
They looked around with binoculars, and there was no sign of water in sight of the bare rocky mountains all around. Li Dongsheng understood that in this environment, in order to save time and pursue quickly, he could only count on Wanlin and Xiaohua, who grew up in the mountains.
He came to Wan Lin and sat down, pointed to the mountain in front of him, and said, "How far do you think we are from our opponent?" Wan Lin shook his head lightly and said, "It's hard to say now, but Xiaohua's sense of smell will definitely find them." We're moving fast, and we shouldn't be far off."
Li Dongsheng nodded, and then said, "The biggest problem now is that we don't have drinking water, you and Xiaohua go around to look around." Wan Lin agreed, asked Dali and Zhang Wa to gather the empty kettles of the team members, and then took the kettle to let Xiaohua smell it and say "find".
Xiaohua wagged her tail and ran with the three of them to a mountain beam on the left. Coming to the bottom of the mountain beam, Zhang Wa looked at the bare stones around her and said, "How can there be water here?" Vigorously kicked him with an eye, "Are you looking for it or Xiaohua looking for it."
Sniffing back and forth between the stones, Xiaohua suddenly ran under the two boulders and scratched the gravel below with her paws. Wan Lin smiled and said, "Found it!" He dragged the two of them to the bottom of the stone, took out the sapper shovel and dug hard at the gravel.
Wan Lin dug for a while and vigorously dragged him to the side, "I'll come." He took the sapper's shovel and chiseled downward. Once, twice, three times, "Wow..."A thin stream erupted from the crack in the stone, vigorously rejoiced, and chiseled a few harder, a cool spring water "goo, goo" gushed out, so happy that Zhang Wa bent down to hug Xiaohua, Xiaohua arrogantly slanted at him, wagged his tail, turned around and walked away. The angry Zhang Wa yelled, "Stinky cat! ”
Wan Lin, who was smiling next to him, urged Zhang Wa to "don't fill the water soon."
A few people filled their kettles first and drank a hearty drink. Then he filled his teammate's water bottle and brought it back. An hour later, the team filled the empty water bottle and set out on the pursuit.
In the early morning of the sixth day, Hong Hu walked to Li Dongsheng's side, and said a little puzzled: "Lao Li, we have been tracking for five days, I didn't find any traces along the way, we won't chase the wrong direction", Li Dongsheng looked around and said, "No, Yufu They are snipers, and it is impossible to leave traces along the way." Their goal is to leave the country, so we can't go wrong in the general direction, and we have Wan Lin and Xiaohua to lead the way, and they are good at tracking."
Hong Hu glanced at Wan Lin and Xiaohua with questioning eyes. casually said that he was a little skeptical, but he knew in his heart that the "Leopard Commando" had become famous in the army, and this was by no means accidental. What's more, I have witnessed their strong combat effectiveness with my own eyes. Since the names of the commandos are all based on Xiaohua's name, it is obvious that Wan Lin and Xiaohua have super abilities that he doesn't know about, and they are the soul of this team.
After several hours of continuous marching, the team came to the top of a hill. Xiaohua, who had been leading the way in front of her in obscurity, suddenly stopped, stood on the top of the mountain and looked up and sniffed.
Li Dongsheng hurried to Wan Lin's side and whispered, "Have you found the target?" Wan Lin looked at Xiaohua's demeanor and said, "Xiaohua can find the enemy about 5 kilometers in the forest, and it should be able to detect and find 7 or 8 kilometers in this bare mountain." Now it's at the top of the mountain, and to look at the small flowers means to smell something, and the enemy should be within 15 km ahead".
When Li Dongsheng heard that he was approaching the enemy, he immediately ordered the team members to "pay attention to all the people, they have approached the target and are ready to fight at any time." Team Hong, you take 4 team members to search and advance to the front right; I led 4 members of the team to search and advance to the left front; Wu Hanyu led the rest of the team to follow Wan Lin. ”
Immediately, the whole team formed a fan and quickly chased forward. Wan Lin and Wu Hanyu followed side by side behind Xiaohua, and the other three team members followed the enemy five or six meters behind them in a triangle.
After two hours, Xiaohua, who was walking in front, became slower and slower, carefully sniffing on the ground and in the air as she walked. Wan Lin knew that he was getting closer and closer to the enemy. He told Li Dongsheng and his teammates behind him to step up their guard.
After Amotti and his party evacuated the base, in order to get rid of the followers behind, Yufu ordered them to sleep only two hours a night, and kept fleeing quickly in the direction of the border. By the third night, they had run out of food and drinking water.
After being cut off from food and water, they could not find serious food and water sources in this mountain composed of stones.
In desperation, the "Viper" installed a silencer on the sniper rifle, and from time to time shot down a few vultures that occasionally flew through the sky. They plucked the feathers of the vultures, cut the meat into strips with their sabers, and distributed them to several people to eat, and if there were no birds, they caught some insects in the cracks of the rocks to eat.
Fortunately, Yufu and they are all special forces, and Ru Mao's blood drinking is nothing to them. But the riot leaders, Amotti and Maimaiti, two people with no military training, were a little overwhelmed. After several days of running away, two hours of sleep a day, and having to eat raw and jerky vulture meat that is difficult to swallow, the two of them who are overdrawn really can't accept it.
Maimaiti looked at the raw meat in front of him with a sad face, and said, "Let's roast and eat it on a fire." "Viper" glanced at him with cold eyes, and said, "You are looking for death, you can see the smoke from the fire for hundreds of miles, and you are not sure if you don't find the pursuers."
Amoti looked at the "poisonous snake" that exuded a cold aura all over his body, kicked Maimaiti with his foot, raised the raw meat in his hand and slowly put it in his mouth.
After each meal, Yuf ordered the other three men to throw the feathers, leftover bones and other waste into the cracks of the stone, and then cover them with a thick layer of gravel.
On the morning of the sixth day, the continuous high-intensity running, coupled with hunger and thirst, made Amoti and Mamat unable to hold on, and they walked more and more slowly. Maimaiti kept shouting, "Let's rest for a while."
Seeing that the two of them couldn't hold on, Yufu ordered the three subordinates: "You are responsible for Amoti, even if you carry it, you have to carry it out for me!" Then he walked up to Maimaiti and asked, "Can you hold on?" ”
Maimaiti shook his head with difficulty. Yuf glanced back at Viper, nodded at him, and turned to walk forward.
As soon as I walked a short distance, I heard a muffled sound of "poof". When several people looked back, they saw that Maimaiti was slowly falling to the ground, and the hand of the "poisonous snake" holding the pistol equipped with a silencer was also being removed from the top of his head, and the other hand took out the chewing gum from his mouth and pressed it the wound on the top of Maimaiti's head.
Amoti was so frightened that he sat on the ground, pointed at the "poisonous snake" and said tremblingly, "You... How to put him... killed".
Yuf walked up to him, looked at him coldly, and said, "My task is to protect you, not him!" With him in tow, none of us can run." He turned to the two men and said, "Dispose of the corpses, leave no traces."
The two men came down to Mamat, who had fallen to the ground, and seeing that there was not a drop of blood on the ground, the two looked at each other with fearful eyes, and then lifted the body and walked down the mountain.
