Chapter 57: Besieged
In the woods at the foot of Dabei Mountain, gunpowder smoke was everywhere, and the air was filled with the smell of gunpowder.
The reinforced battalion, which was responsible for intercepting and selecting soldiers, established an encirclement at the outermost part of the mountain forest, and formed an encirclement to move closer to the soldiers who had been selected for selection.
As soon as many soldiers entered the mountains and forests, they were hit by dense fire, and green smoke rose from their bodies, and they were directly eliminated.
Yang Feng and Zhang Xiaoshan hid behind a big tree the moment they heard the gunshots, and suddenly changed color when they listened to the gunshots that rang out in all directions.
"We're surrounded." Zhang Xiaoshan said urgently, "These people are so insidious and cunning that they even ambushed us as soon as they entered the mountain forest. ”
"That's one of their strategies, which is to catch us off guard before we get on a firm footing and before we get into the groove." Yang Feng's expression was also quite solemn, leaning over to observe the surrounding situation, and found that in just a few minutes of firepower, many people had already been eliminated with green smoke coming out of their bodies.
"It's also to blame us for being too relaxed, when the major said that the assessment began, we should be in combat mode." Zhang Xiaoshan said with some annoyance, watching his comrades-in-arms around him being eliminated one after another, and he felt very uncomfortable.
"There's no time to regret it, now we have to think about how to break through the enemy's encirclement." Yang Feng said, his eyes turning to observe the surrounding situation, thinking of a strategy against the enemy.
After a period of panicked restlessness, the soldiers who participated in the selection also calmed down, had no time to complain, and began to organize a counterattack in an orderly manner.
Dozens of them formed a powerful firepower point and attacked in one direction, and for a time the enemy's firepower was suppressed, and it became the best breakthrough.
"We broke through with those dozens of people." Yang Feng immediately made a decision, and rushed out with the Type 95 rifle in his hand.
Zhang Xiaoshan followed, shooting at the enemy while marching quickly.
Not only Yang Feng, but also many soldiers also discovered the gap opened under the ferocious fire of the dozens of people, so they also joined in.
For a time, the soldiers who participated in the selection consciously united and began to break through.
After all, they are the elite soldiers of the entire Central Military Region, and when they calm down and fight together, their combat ability is also very terrifying.
Soon, the enemy's encirclement was torn open, and many soldiers broke through and ran into the deep and invisible dense forest.
There are also some people who covet armbands and do not leave in time, but go to seize the armbands of those enemies who have been hit "dead" by empty cartridges.
Unfortunately, the enemy's reaction speed was also very fast, and the forces quickly approached, eliminating some of the soldiers who participated in the selection who remained to seize the armbands.
After Yang Feng and Zhang Xiaoshan successfully broke through, they separated from the large army, and the rapid march ran for more than ten minutes before stopping.
Zhang Xiaoshan panted and leaned against a big tree, and said regretfully: "It would be nice if we could have left a few enemy armbands just now." ”
Yang Feng shook his head and said: "If we stay, we are likely to be surrounded and eliminated by the enemy, the test has just begun, and we still have many opportunities to seize the armband." ”
Zhang Xiaoshan suddenly looked at Yang Feng with some admiration, he didn't think of this.
Yang Feng continued: "Zhang Xiaoshan, you are familiar with the topography of Dabei Mountain, is there any shortcut to go up the mountain? ”
"Yes, of course." Zhang Xiaoshan's eyes lit up, and an excited smile appeared on his face, after the enemy's unexpected encirclement and fierce battle, he himself forgot his advantage.
His expression became serious, observing his surroundings, and soon determined his position on Dabei Mountain, and then pointed to a deep and winding dense forest direction and said, "Walking in this direction to the top of the mountain can save two hours. ”
"Okay, let's go in this direction." Yang Feng said, carrying a marching bag on his back, holding a Type 95 rifle, and ran with all his strength towards the shortcut confirmed by Zhang Xiaoshan.
Zhang Xiaoshan followed behind, keeping a certain distance, so that the scope of the investigation could be expanded.
Even if they take a shortcut, there is no guarantee that there will be no enemy ambush, so you have to pay attention to the situation around you with 120,000 spirits!
It was noon, the sun was scorching, and even though there was little sunlight in the mountains and forests, the temperature was still very high.
After running in the mountains and forests for more than an hour, Yang Feng and Zhang Xiaoshan were already sweating.
The clothes were wet with sticky sweat, and the smell of sweat mixed with the smell of earth was very unpleasant.
"No, I need to take a break." Zhang Xiaoshang suddenly stopped, sat on a big rock, and gasped violently.
Yang Feng stopped, looked at the surrounding environment, it was not suitable as an ambush point, so he nodded and said, "Then we will rest here for ten minutes." ”
"Hmm." Zhang Xiaoshan nodded, took out the kettle and drank it.
"Save some drink, not only do we have no food, but we also don't have enough water." Yang Feng reminded that although he was already dry, he still resisted the desire to drink water, and just kept swallowing the saliva in his mouth into his stomach to relieve the feeling of hunger and thirst.
When Zhang Xiaoshan heard this, he could only reluctantly close the lid of the kettle, put it down, pursed his lips, and savored the pleasure of drinking just now.
"Can we go up to the top of the mountain in the evening?" Yang Feng asked.
"I can't." Zhang Xiaoshan shook his head and said, "If you have to arrive in the middle of the night at the earliest, if you don't encounter an enemy ambush." ”
"Let's hope not." Yang Feng smiled bitterly.
"But if we don't encounter the enemy, there is no way to seize the armband, and then even if we return to the camp within the allotted time, we will not be able to advance." Zhang Xiaoshan said, also very distressed.
Yang Feng was not worried about this problem, and said: "Don't worry, we will meet the enemy at the top of the mountain, and then it will be an opportunity to seize the armband." ”
Zhang Xiaoshan nodded, he knew deeply that there would definitely be enemies guarding the suspension bridge at the top of the mountain.
But how do you cross the bridge?
This is also a problem.
Zhang Xiaoshan felt that his brain was a little insufficient.
He looked at Yang Feng and found that Yang Feng's expression was calm and calm, as if everything was under control.
"Do you have any way to cross the bridge?" Zhang Xiaoshan asked expectantly.
"No, I haven't seen the suspension bridge and environment at the top of the mountain, so I don't have a strategy, I can only take one step at a time." Yang Feng sighed with emotion, and couldn't help but admire the chief who designed this assessment.
"Well, hopefully we have a chance." Zhang Xiaoshan said that his breathing rate has stabilized a lot.
"Have you rested?" Yang Feng asked.
"Hmm."
"Then let's keep going." Yang Feng said, got up and continued to run.
Zhang Xiaoshan got up and followed, and after resting for a few minutes, he felt that his physical strength had recovered a lot.
After running for another half hour or so, Yang Feng suddenly stopped, his expression became solemn, and his eyes were staring at the dense forest in front of him.
"What's wrong?" Zhang Xiaoshan asked softly.
"There's movement ahead." Yang Feng said, quietly lurking up.
