Chapter 229: Battle in the Jungle (Part I)
Soon after entering the jungle, Mi Jun found himself missing his goal.
Commander Johansen immediately realized that this was a trap, but it was too late.
A dense burst of gunfire rang out in all directions, and then it fell silent again.
Johansen immediately ordered to return the way he came, abandoning the pursuit.
But as soon as the team turned around, the soldiers who were walking in the front heard a sudden faint sound of wind overhead.
A row of things about two meters in diameter and shaped like sea urchins smashed down with the sound of the wind.
"Ahh β¦β¦β
Before Johansen could understand what was happening, he heard a series of screams from among the soldiers who had just become the front team.
βshitοΌ How could it be? What happened?! β
Before the words fell, a soldier in front of him ran to him in a panic and said sharply:
"Report! A lot of sharpened thick branches suddenly fell from the front and in front of them, and more than a dozen people were stoned to death! β
Johansen angrily pushed the soldier away and strode forward.
When he saw the dozen or so corpses pierced by the wooden thorns, his eyes almost burst into flames.
"Get these things out of the way now! Fast! β
The soldiers who came to their senses immediately stepped forward and tried to move the sea urchin-shaped things away, but when the thing fell down, the momentum was heavy, and the wooden thorns facing down had been deeply inserted into the ground, so it was not easy to pull them out.
The trees in the jungle are high and dense, the sunlight cannot reach the ground all year round, the fallen leaves accumulated over the years rot and accumulate when they are soaked in rain, the soil is soft, the water content is large, and the wooden thorns inserted into it are tightly wrapped in the moist soil, and the vacuum effect is deep, and the resistance to pulling out is very large.
The soldiers struggled for a long time, but barely pulled out two, and the rest were still deeply embedded in the earth, not moving.
Johansen's forehead was sweating, and he knew that every second of delay in hiding here would be more dangerous.
Those Huaxia people paid such a big price to trick their team in, and they definitely won't have to be the only one to prepare.
In desperation, he immediately ordered his troops to detour from both sides.
It's still risky, but it's better than waiting.
These soldiers of the United States have never seen such a formation, this kind of battle that they don't even know where the enemy is can't be fought at all, their hearts are extremely nervous, for fear that they don't know where to fly from in the next second, something will kill them.
They are not afraid of death, and there is nothing to fear even if they die.
But now, they don't even know where the enemy is, it's like waiting before the death penalty, and this psychological torment is too much for most people to bear.
However, despite the nervousness and even fear in their hearts, these soldiers of the United States were still orderly when they acted, and there was no panic at all.
However, when someone saw that their companion, who had been walking in front of them, was shorter in the blink of an eye, they could no longer maintain their composure.
Although the swamp thing sounds a little scary, once it is used well, it is definitely the most effective killing weapon.
Seeing that half of his body suddenly fell into the ground, the person behind him immediately stepped forward to pull his companion out, but was shocked to find that he was also trapped.
I know someone shouted "Back off, it's a swamp!" After that, the vicious cycle stopped.
Everyone was silent, and they could only watch their companions and comrades-in-arms slowly being swallowed up by the mud in front of them, but they were helpless.
The procession was supposed to go around in two directions, and this happened almost simultaneously on both sides.
In just a few minutes, dozens of lives were swallowed up in this way.
With nowhere to vent his anger, Johansen pulled out his pistol and fired several shots into the air.
"Snap"
A lump of slippery liquid suddenly landed on Johansen's face, and he raised his hand to touch it, still slightly warm.
He raised his head in some confusion, only to see two rows of sharp and fine inverted teeth rapidly enlarge in front of him, and the next second, it turned into darkness.
All the soldiers of the Mi Army let out an exclamation almost simultaneously after they heard the movement and turned around.
I saw that where Johansen was standing, a huge python appeared, nearly ten meters long, and the thickest part of its body was more than thirty centimeters in diameter.
Of course, this does not include the part that was held up by Johansen.
The python's head was covered in blood and seemed to be injured, and after swallowing Johansen, it did not leave immediately, but quickly coiled its body.
It seems that it is planning to digest Johansen before leaving.
In the next second, those soldiers of the United States rushed over with a roar, and hundreds of guns were aimed at the snake's head almost at the same time.
The python rolled around to dodge the flying bullets, and seemed intent on arching the section of Johansen's body to fend off the bullets.
Even so, it did not escape death in the end.
After ten minutes, the python, whose entire head was almost smashed, stopped struggling.
By the time the GIs cut open the belly of the snake with daggers, Johansen was already dead and couldn't die anymore.
Deep in the jungle, Wei Yang was sitting on the ground bandaging his wounds.
As he retreated, a bullet pierced his calf muscles, and the blood had already stained his trousers.
Yang Qianqi ran from a distance with a smile on his face, and when he saw him, his face suddenly became gloomy:
"Boss, I'm going to kill them all!"
As he spoke, he turned around and was about to leave.
Wei Yang hurriedly stopped him:
"Come back!"
Yang Qianqi reluctantly turned around and looked at Wei Yang with a puzzled face.
Wei Yang bandaged the wound, stood up with the trunk of the tree, patted Yang Qianqi on the shoulder with a smile and said:
"How can anyone not get hurt in a war? Don't come nonsense, follow the previous plan, try to catch it alive. β
Yang Qianqi's face was anxious:
"But ......"
Wei Yang's eyes widened:
"No, but! Do as I say! By the way, what are you doing here? β
As soon as he asked, a smile appeared on Yang Qianqi's face again:
"Boss, the official of the rice country was swallowed by the python!"
Wei Yang was stunned when he heard this:
"What's going on?"
As soon as he said this, Yang Qianqi's eyebrows suddenly fluttered:
When the boy saw his soldiers fall into the swamp, he exploded, drew his pistol and fired several shots into the air. But he didn't expect that there was a python in the tree above, probably because of the accidental injury that angered the python, the big guy flew down and swallowed him in one bite! β
Such a strange way of dying really made Wei Yang a little crying and laughing.
"Okay, you go back, remember, you must act according to the original plan, and don't come nonsense!"
Yang Qianqi agreed a little helplessly, turned around and ran.
