Chapter 230: Fierce Battle in the Jungle (Part II)
Johansen died, but the GIs didn't get thrown into chaos.
After some discussion, several detachment leaders decided to find a way around the swamp.
This time they learned wisely, leaving a third of them to advance slowly deeper into the jungle, while the rest searched for a route to escape on either side.
But how can it be that easy? Wei Yang paid such a big price to lure them here, so naturally he wouldn't let them leave.
The topography of this jungle is like a natural trap, except for the road that plunges into it, the low-lying areas on both sides are all swamps, which stretch into the depths of the jungle.
In other words, unless they pull out those sea urchins, they will have to go deeper into the jungle, and there is no second way to go at least three kilometers deep!
When Yang Qianqi saw from the telescope that those soldiers of the United States began to move, he couldn't help but show a strange smile on his face.
After walking more than 200 meters, there was still no trace of the enemy, and the hearts of these soldiers of the United States were even more nervous, even to the point that they were all soldiers.
Suddenly, a big tree in front of them that fell in their direction suddenly began to shake violently, and those soldiers in charge of guarding and advancing pulled the trigger without any hesitation.
Before the gunfire could stop, the big tree suddenly bounced off the ground, and before the soldiers could see what was going on, their bodies suddenly lost their center of gravity, and seemed to be lifted into the air by something.
When the people behind them saw clearly, they found that dozens of people had been swept into the air by a large black net.
In the next second, arm-thick wooden thorns suddenly shot out from the canopy around them, piercing the bodies of the soldiers in the net with the sound of the wind.
After a terrible scream, almost all the dozens of people in the net were silent.
Blood rained down from mid-air, staining the ground red.
The rest of the soldiers of the United States roared with red eyes, but they didn't know who to vent to.
Nearly 100 people died in such a daze, but they didn't even see the shadow of the enemy.
Everyone realized that there was a trap, a trap, but they couldn't break it.
But no matter how angry they were, they could only move on.
The rest of the GIs could only walk across the crimson ground drenched in the blood of their comrades, gritting their teeth and continuing on.
"Ahh ……”
After not going far, a scream sounded again on the right side, and more than two dozen people stumbled and fell into a deep pit, the bottom of which was covered with erected spikes, and there was no survivor.
And this trap is very cleverly designed, it is not triggered, but cumulative.
In other words, the lid of the trap has a certain load-bearing capacity, and if the weight does not meet the requirements, no one will fall down.
Because the ground in the jungle had accumulated fallen leaves for many years, it felt soft wherever you stepped on it, so it didn't attract the attention of the GIs at first.
The reason why Yang Qianqi dug such a big trap at this location was because when he was surveying the route, he found that a section of the swamp was about to disappear, and he could pass through it as long as he put a layer of branches on the surface, so he dug such a big trap here.
Those soldiers finally found such a relatively hard ground, and they were naturally very excited, and many people gathered to check, and as soon as the number of people was large, they naturally fell.
This trap became the last straw that broke the camel's back, and the hundred and ten soldiers of the United States, who were already on the verge of collapse, immediately turned around and ran in the direction they came, trying to remove the sea urchin-shaped barricades.
Not to mention, people can indeed burst into unimaginable potential when they are extremely nervous or frightened, and soon they work together to pull one out.
Adding the two that had been pulled out earlier, a two-meter-wide gap finally appeared there.
Although there is only one row of those sea urchin-shaped things, it is not the principle that one plus one equals two.
They crisscrossed each other, and even if one was pulled out, the wooden spikes on the left and right would still be stuck there.
So they pulled out three of them, and they just made such a way in front of them.
Seeing that they had succeeded, the soldiers in the back immediately ran back, working together to pull out more "sea urchins".
But just as they all gathered, there was another gust of wind overhead.
The GIs were instantly shocked, but it was too late to run.
This time, what fell from it was a wooden cage filled with stones, rectangular, and there were also wooden thorns on the outside, but the length was about fifty centimeters, and it was not very dense.
The screams rang out again, and many of the GIs, although not pierced by the wooden thorns, were stoned to death.
Many people don't understand until they die, since there is such a mechanism, why didn't it just fall down at the beginning?
Indeed, this is Yang Qianqi's deliberate, he just wants to use this way to crush the fighting spirit of these rice people!
When the dozen or so GIs who had already gone out saw this scene, they didn't care about being sad at all, and turned around and ran.
But unfortunately, before I ran fifteen meters, a row of "sea urchins" appeared above my head, and the force of the smashing was even greater than the first time.
The men didn't even have time to react, they kept running forward and were pierced through by the wooden spikes.
In just a few minutes, seventy or eighty more people died.
This team of more than 700 people had at least 690 people before entering the jungle.
But from the time they entered the jungle to the present, only about five hundred people remained, and on the premise that they did not even see the shadow of the enemy.
However, despite this, these soldiers did not completely give up their resistance, nor did they look for a way to escape, but gathered again and marched towards the depths of the jungle.
They are desperate to find an enemy, even if they will die at the hands of the enemy, than to be killed like a hunt!
Yang Qianqi put down the binoculars, the expression on his face gradually became serious, and he sincerely had a kind of respect in his heart, respect for soldiers.
Instead of letting the traps be touched, he quietly jumped from under the tree and gestured behind his back without a trace.
The hundred members of the special operations team quietly appeared, and followed Yang Qianqi to those American soldiers.
Respect is respect, but Yang Qianqi is not going to fight with the soldiers of the United States head-on.
After he left with the special operations team, the remaining five hundred ordinary soldiers also dispersed, quietly and slowly approaching the direction of the soldiers of the United States.
No matter how strong an army's combat effectiveness is, once it encounters such a blow in a completely unfamiliar environment, and then is surrounded again, it will definitely not be able to play its due level.
