Chapter 36: Records of the Ancient Chinese
On the ground, where the temporary base of the US military is located. ()
The camp was centered around this hollow crater, and several squads of the American army were scattered around, just blocking all the roads approaching the crater.
At this moment, all the squad leaders gathered at the command office where Lieutenant Robert was, staring closely at a large electronic display in front of them.
On the electronic screen is the real-time picture sent back by Tazaki Shin and other Japanese and Korean mercenaries, and the scene staged at this time is exactly the scene where Tatsuko Yada grabs Yada Tatsuko's heart, and everyone is holding their breath, even if they are used to seeing killing. They also had to admit that this scene was too bloody.
The gore of using a firearm to take out an enemy from a distance is slightly less sensually inferior to the thrill of hand-to-hand combat, and as the oldest means of warfare of mankind, hand-to-hand combat can resonate even in modern society.
Just after Tatsuko Yada was killed by Tabubu Tatsuko, the display screen first swirled in a whirlwind, then a group of snakes flocked, and then a snowflake appeared. The people gathered in front of the display understood that all the sensors had been destroyed, after all, it was in a pitch black underground, and the slightest light would be nowhere to be seen.
"Judging from the current situation, once the people who go down are scattered, they will be easily hunted by these underground creatures, and there is no chance of survival.
Alden was right, but what they didn't expect was that there were so many strange snakes here, which was obviously unscientific. As a result, they died in a daze before they could understand what the situation was, and they did not pass on valuable information, so it cannot be said that their deaths were actually meaningless.
As for the Japanese and South Korean soldiers led by Tazaki Shin and Kim Taka, they were all very brave, which is obvious to all. In particular, the information they passed back was very useful, and I will explain the situation to the Yongsan base and give Tazaki Shin and Kantaka the credit they deserve.
Once again, I emphasize that the United States does not forget those who contributed to it.
Also, what happened to Alden and Nobu Tazaki is enough to show that we are the prey below, and if we really can't go deep in the end, then we are ready to destroy it, no matter what is below, we would rather completely destroy this place than leave China and Russia with a little something. ”
Robert said with a serious face, in fact, he already had a plan in his heart, he was already thinking about the worst plan, completely destroying the underground mysterious space he discovered.
It's not that the U.S. military is not strong enough to take this place, but it's that Robert feels very embarrassed by the geographical location of this underground space, which is in Mongolia, which is completely surrounded by China and Russia.
As everyone knows, the strength of the US military is indispensable to the addition of high-tech equipment, and the US military has gone on an expedition to this point, and many high-tech equipment cannot be brought because of worries, and this alone has cut off most of the US military's combat effectiveness.
Without the addition of world-leading high-tech equipment, the quality of the American GIs alone is more than enough to do many things. Just like now, with no heavy weaponry and other options, Robert and the others can only stare at this place.
"Excuse me, Lieutenant, I have some impressions of this creature." In the atmosphere where the captain of the U.S. military squad and the other mercenary captains were silent, Matsuoka said with some uncertainty.
Sei Matsuoka is a special researcher from Tokyo, Japan, because his research content is relatively special, and he is one of the main leaders of the research direction of ancient Chinese history. Some people may have questions: Matsuoka Sheng, a Japanese who has nothing to do to study Chinese history, is it because he is full of food?
It should be emphasized here that Japanese intelligence spying, cultural and historical research, and various purposeful infiltrations into China have been going on since the decline of China in the late Qing Dynasty, and this continues to do so today. Most of the many Japanese who have entered China under the banner of 'academic research, cultural exchanges, business cooperation, and mutual benefit of investment' have had the experience of 'intelligence cooperation' with the Japanese government.
As for what kind of information, of course, it is related to China's astronomical, geographical, water patterns, military, political, and people's livelihood, and everything from the matter of Chen Sesame and the rotten grain of Chen to the various decisions made by Beijing, all of which the Japanese have done their best to collect. There are even some Japanese in China who do not hesitate to risk their lives to approach the PLA military forbidden area just to obtain first-hand information, and similar incidents are not uncommon.
The fundamental reason is that Japan's heart will not die, and the wolf's ambition is obvious!
During the war of aggression against China in the last century, Japan plundered a large number of precious cultural relics from China, including many lost historical classics. As a person in Tokyo who specializes in the study of ancient Chinese history, it is natural that Matsuoka has read the historical classics in it. Many of the records in these classics have many strange things even in the eyes of contemporary people, and even make people wonder whether these contents were written by Chinese hundreds of years ago after drinking and blindly using them to entertain future generations. Or is it purely that the spirit monster from the Yuan Dynasty was compared by later generations?
Matsuoka Sheng clearly remembers some of the famous 'unsolved cases' in Chinese history, such as the historical events of the Three Kingdoms period recorded in the classics, it is said that a child in Soochow at that time met a person who fell from the sky and predicted the future of the world;
In Matsuoka's memory, there seems to be a record of this creature in some of the biographies of the Song and Yuan dynasties in China. But at that time, he didn't care, it was just a joke, and he had seen many records that were unlikely to appear even in contemporary times, and most of the researchers laughed at them, and who would take these things seriously.
Where did he know that the content recorded by these ancient Chinese really came in handy one day, Matsuoka Sheng was caught off guard, so he said with some uncertainty, at this moment he was trying to recall the content he had browsed, trying to piece together his memory.
"I remember!
Hundreds of years ago, the Chinese recorded this strange snake, but the Chinese at that time only called this strange snake snake demon, and also called the one-horned snake, two-horned snake, pseudo-dragon and so on. The creature seemed to have appeared overnight, and the Chinese at the time were surprised because they had never found it in history.
This strange snake is huge in size when it reaches adulthood, and most parts of its body are strong. Hard scale protection, that is invulnerable, fire and water, even the crossbow arrow can be shot to bounce away. Some unbelievers joined the poison to use pigs, sheep, cattle and horses as bait, but the poison did not succeed but aroused the ferocity of the snakes, according to a survivor who participated in the encirclement and suppression at that time, the long yellow sand was covered by large and small snakes, and it made people's scalp tingle when they couldn't see the edge.
There are also people who see the strange snake swallow a cavalryman and a horse in one bite, and they are so frightened that they crawl back and crawl back, saying that they will not get rid of the strange snake anymore. However, this did not save his life, and he lost his heart and died that night.
People tried all kinds of methods, and it turned out that people at that time had almost no way to do anything about this strange snake, and it should be said that no effective solution was found at that time. Fortunately, after long-term observation, it was discovered that these strange snakes only lived in a fixed area of the desert and hardly left, and the Chinese government at that time simply stopped caring about it.
At that time, the Chinese also left a record of the strong destructive power of the one-horned giant snake, and it is said that the one-horned cracked stone on its head was as simple as people eating and drinking. There should be an exaggeration here, but there is no denying that this huge unicorn snake has a destructive power that was considered powerful by people at the time.
As for the two-horned monster snake, I don't have the impression that there is any information about it, it may be that the Chinese at that time have not seen it, or it may have only appeared in the last hundreds of years. ”
