Chapter 374: Field Investigation
Wan Lin shook his head and said, "We are scouting, not fighting. Don't alarm the other party unless you have to. It's up to you to deal with the people you encounter." Xiao Ya also untied the equipment on her body, and handed the automatic rifle, pistol, and dagger to Lingling next to her. Then the two took off the epaulettes, armbands and other things on their bodies to indicate their identity.
Ready to stop, the three of them immediately walked to the river they had seen last night.
In the early morning, the river is very clean, there is no figure on either side of the river, the river water is thirty or forty meters wide and flows quietly, and the river surface turns up from time to time to blister from the fish in the water. There are some willow trees growing on the banks of the river, and some aquatic plants on the banks are fluttering in the water with the current. Six or seven kilometers in front of the river is a lake with a large water surface, just looking at the scene here, it has the meaning of a water town in the south of the Yangtze River.
On the opposite side of the river is a majestic cliff, about a kilometer high. At the bottom of the cliff are the rocks scattered under the cliff, which continue along the course of the river.
Allende walked quietly in front, and Xiao Ya and Wan Lin followed behind with two leopards in their arms, and at first glance, they looked like a loving little couple following behind.
The three of them walked along the river to the place where the river and the lake converged and stopped. In the early morning, a thin layer of white dust drifts across the lake, undulating with the breeze on the lake.
Allende stopped and turned back to Wan Lin and said, "This is the confluence of the river and the lake, and the lake in front of it is gradually opening up. As you can see, the cliff on the opposite side is basically straight up and down, and about two kilometers east of the cliff is the base. The base was built in a clearing in front of the cliff, and there was a large clearing near the lake. After a while, the fog on the surface of the lake lifts and you can see it. This is the best place to see it."
Wan Lin nodded, glanced around, saw a small forest not far from the shore, and said, "Let's go to the woods and wait for a while", and walked towards the woods.
As soon as I walked into the woods, I saw three people wearing pale yellow camouflage uniforms carrying automatic rifles walking over from the other side of the woods.
Wan Lin saw the other party from afar, quickly turned around and pulled Xiao Ya to his side, looked at Allende with stern eyes, and asked him to go to the front and talk to the other party.
Allende shrunk his neck and reluctantly walked to the front. Wan Lin and Xiao Ya followed closely behind with their heads down.
At this time, the three people on the opposite side also found Wan Lin and them, pulled the gun off their shoulders and held it in their hands, walked over to the three of them, and asked loudly from the distance.
Allende greeted him with a smile on his face, and said a lot in the local dialect. The three soldiers looked Allende up and down, pushed him away, walked over to Wan Lin and Xiao Ya, first looked up and down Wan Lin and Xiao Ya, who were each holding a kitten, and then all their eyes were focused on Xiao Ya's beautiful face, and their eyes were full of surprise.
Obviously, it is difficult to meet such beautiful women in this place. Xiao Ya pretended to be shy and hid behind Wan Lin. Due to years of war, there are a lot of young people wearing camouflage uniforms in this area, and all kinds of camouflage uniforms can be seen everywhere, so Wan Lin's clothes did not arouse the other party's vigilance.
The three of them looked at Xiao Ya for a while, with a greedy look in their eyes, and one of them reached out and grabbed Xiao Ya's arm and said something in his mouth. Allende hurriedly came over and stopped Xiao Ya and said something.
The person who reached out to grab Xiaoya saw Allende blocking it, and pushed Allende away angrily, scolding in his mouth, and the two people on the side showed obscene smiles on their faces, and the guns in their hands were pointed at Wanlin and Allende.
Although Wan Lin and Xiaoya couldn't understand what the other party said, they could already guess from each other's obscene expressions and movements that the other party wanted to take Xiaoya away.
Wan Lin couldn't get out, his eyes looked around, and saw that there were no other figures around, he gritted his teeth lightly, suddenly coughed lightly, and as soon as the hand holding Xiaohua in his left hand was loosened, a yellow shadow suddenly rushed towards the person who raised the gun against Allende, and Wan Lin shook his body, and his right hand had pinched the neck of the soldier who raised the gun against him, and then grabbed it hard.
At the same time as Wan Lin coughed, Xiao Ya's left hand loosened, and a white shadow had already jumped to the top of the gangster's head who was stretching his hand towards him.
"Poof, poof", "click" With three sounds, the three gun-wielding people slowly fell to the ground without saying a word.
Allende next to him only felt a flower in front of him, and the person opposite suddenly became shorter, and something red and white appeared on his face.
"Mom......" As soon as Allende exclaimed the word "Mom" on his lips, Wan Lin turned around and covered his mouth.
Allende stared at the three people who fell to the ground with round eyes, both of them had red and white substances distributed around their heads, only the person who was crushed by Wan Lin's neck bone was still clean, but his head was softly crooked to the side.
Wan Lin let go of the hand covering Allende's mouth, hooked a hand of the opponent's automatic rifle under his foot, took it in his hand, looked around, waved his hand to Xiaohua and Xiaobai, and the two leopards turned around and ran around. Xiao Ya was already holding an automatic rifle at this time, vigilantly observing the surroundings.
Seeing that there was no movement around, Wan Lin put on his automatic rifle on his back, grabbed one foot of each of the two people on the ground and walked into the forest, and Xiao Ya also quickly dragged another corpse to follow. The two dragged the body deep into the woods, dragged some grass and branches over the body, and then turned and walked back to the edge of the forest.
Wan Lin hid behind a tree to see that the mist on the lake had dissipated, and with a kick of his feet, he jumped on a branch of a tree four or five meters high, followed his hand to probe up, and disappeared into the thick canopy in a blink of an eye.
Allende was already sitting on the ground in horror, watching Wanlin burrow into the canopy like a monkey, his eyes widened, and his mouth opened for nothing. Xiao Ya hid behind a tree, the automatic rifle in her hand against her shoulder, and the muzzle of the gun was facing ahead.
Wan Lin burrowed into the canopy of the tree and took out his scope to look across the dense foliage.
The fog on the surface of the lake has just cleared, and the view is excellent. Through the lake about a kilometer away, opposite the cliffs that stretch by the river,
On the cliffs, there are many caves of different heights and sizes. There is a very spacious open space under the cliff, and the cliff arcs to enclose the open space, and naturally forms two entrances and exits on the left and right of the open space.
There are six or seven rows of houses built along the cliffs in the open space, and there are about a dozen rooms in each row, and there are many things floating on the lake, which seem to be targets for shooting training in the base. There are also seven or eight ships of various sizes on the shore. On either side of the clearing stood a stone watchtower, on which the sentries could be faintly seen shaking. On the cliff behind the base hung two hanging ladders, on which several figures were mixed around, presumably enemy lookouts and a point of fire.
In the open space, dozens of personnel were training, shaking their bodies from time to time, probably in hand-to-hand confrontation training.
After observing the terrain, Wan Lin took out the map and made some markups, and then jumped out of the canopy of the tree and jumped down directly. "Let's go, go back" Wan Lin beckoned to Xiaoya and Allende, then gave a soft whistle, turned around and walked back.
