Chapter Twenty-Four: In a Jedi

Zhuang Yushu went out to call Liu Weimin, Chen Qiaoshan also lit a cigarette, and asked worriedly, "Black Heron, if someone blocks the entrance to the cave, won't we become turtles in the urn?" ”

"The mountain is limestone, and this kind of cave doesn't usually have only one exit. Rest and we'll find out! Zhang Wuchang took a sharp puff of his cigarette and replied affirmatively.

Seeing that Zhang Wuchang was confident, Chen Qiaoshan no longer had any doubts. After a few days of fighting together, he has a high degree of trust in the three members of the team. They are like fish in water, as if they were born for the jungle, and nothing can stump them. Especially for Zhang Wuchang, he is full of trust. This tall guy in his early twenties, it seems that nothing in this world can stump him.

Zhuang Yushu and Liu Weimin didn't come in for a long time, so Chen Qiaoshan patrolled the cave by himself, and suddenly exclaimed as if he was being chased and killed, "Heron, come and ......."

"Hehe, it's just a forest python!"

Zhang Wuchang didn't make a fuss, just giggled. In fact, he saw it just now, not far from the Tuojiang River, a huge forest python hibernating in the cave, and the head of the snake had been slaughtered by Zhuang Yushu. The delicious python meat is enough for the team to eat for three or two days.

"God, you ......" Chen Qiaoshan ran back in a hurry, "Did you know early on that there were snakes and python caves here, and you still had to come in...... Are there ...... in those holes?"

"These things are food for each other, and there can only be one in a hole." Zhang Wuchang explained, "In which caves, there will be openings that lead to other places. ”

Liu Weimin came in, and Zhuang Yushu dragged two bundles of dry firewood in. Liu Weimin dragged a bundle of firewood, as well as a freshly hunted millet deer, with rolling meat and thirty or forty catties.

The team set up in the cave, and Liu Weimin lit a bonfire. The ground was clean, he held a knife in his hand, quickly cleaned up the python and deer, made a tripod, and several people began to roast meat together.

Zhuang Yushu carefully explored all the caves at the bottom of the cave. When everyone's dinner was ready, Zhuang Yushu had a cigarette in his mouth and four small stainless steel marching lunch boxes the size of two kettles in his hands, which were already filled with water. He also carried a tattered, but heavy backpack on his back, and came back slowly.

He made a new discovery.

"Heron, this cave is wonderful, it has four floors, like a labyrinth. There is only the second level above, and there are two caves leading out of the mountain. But one big hole was blown up, and another small hole led to the back mountain, and I walked for a while, two or three kilometers, and the exit turned out to be in the middle of the cliff by the river, which was very hidden and not easy to find. There is also a small stream in the cave above, and the water flows all the way to the cliff at the exit, making it a small waterfall. The above is more suitable for camping, but ......" Zhuang Yushu wanted to speak and stopped.

"It's nice to have water! But what? Chen Qiaoshan asked.

"Surely you found a skeleton? It's not surprising that this used to be a battlefield, a hidden battlefield. Liu Weimin said boringly.

"You're really more boring......" Zhuang Yushu felt that Liu Weimin's cleverness was boring.

Chen Qiaoshan stared, speechless in disbelief.

Zhuang Yushu explained, "There are eleven human skeletons, a python skeleton, and a large number of rusted weapons and equipment, all of which are M military standard weapons, and the skeletons are all white. It should have been the commando of the M Army, which was surrounded by the Annamite people in the jungle and couldn't get out, and finally died here......"

"What's in the bag?" Chen Qiaoshan asked.

Zhuang Yushu hoisted the four lunch boxes onto the tripod, cut off four large pieces of python meat and four balls of deer oil and threw them into the box, took out the salt and sprinkled a little, and said, "Grenades, seventeen!" There are thousands of bullets, and they should all work. ”

The crowd stopped talking, and similar images flashed through their minds.

A commando team of Army M on a special mission, landed in a helicopter in the jungle of Anbei, and was soon discovered and targeted by the army of Annan. They fled into the depths of the jungle and took refuge in a cave after being chased and intercepted. The Annamite who tracked them down and blocked the commandos in a hole in the jungle.

The battle began, and the Annamites paid heavy sacrifices, but were unable to break through into the cave. So, they blew up the cave and completely sealed off the surrounding area, trying to suffocate the M Army inside. Army M was enclosed in the cave and was in a desperate situation for a while. They relied on flashlights to find the lower water source, and were about to camp to rest, when they encountered a python attack.

They killed the python and barely survived for a while. The flashlight quickly ran out, and the shadow of death loomed over everyone. The Annam army blockaded all the areas, the commandos were trapped in the caves, and the food soon ran out, and they were in a desperate situation......

The water in the lunch box was boiling, and Zhuang Yushu put some mushrooms, leaves, and spices picked by Liu Weimin into it, and the fragrance of python meat and deer oil wafted into the cave. These days, they rely on the food they hunt to satisfy their hunger, and they are never willing to eat the rations of individual soldiers. Everyone drooled and jumped on the bandwagon, and the expectation of good food diluted the dreary atmosphere.

The design of the lunch box used by the M Army commando is very practical, with a flat and circular structure, which is easy to carry. It is usually packed in a canvas bag and can be used to put food inside. When cooking, it can be hoisted with copper wire, which is extremely convenient.

At the beginning of lunch, Zhuang Yushu's next words still made everyone's mood heavy. "Heron, the 'flying scorpion' has started to search the jungle on the west bank of the Tuojiang River, and I heard the sound of an engine over the river......"

The Annanites are known as "jungle scoundrels" and are very good at jungle warfare. At that time, the commando team of Army M, because their whereabouts were exposed, were trapped in this jungle and finally suffocated to death. Zhang Wuchang felt that he had met an opponent, and the head of this "flying scorpion" squad seemed to be a master, and he used the tactics used to deal with the people of country M in the past.

If you scatter the "flying scorpion" team into the jungle and try to find an opponent, it is like looking for a needle in a haystack. But the "flying scorpion" waits for work, waiting for the rabbit, you can't stay in the jungle for the rest of your life, as long as you run for your life, you will be exposed. This trick is indeed ruthless enough. "Flying Scorpion" is the top team in the jungle, and is a real jungle warfare expert, once they find their tracks, it is difficult to get out of the way.

After lunch, Liu Weimin and Zhuang Yushu began to get busy.

They went in and out, back and forth several times in the afternoon. The nest of wild boars outside the cave was unlucky, and the two of them got some firewood, pines, leaves, mushrooms, etc., and dragged in three wild boars. Zhang Wuchang and Chen Qiaoshan quickly cleaned up the wild boar, cut the meat into thin slices with a sharp diving knife, dried it on the bamboo pole by the bonfire, and then patiently picked the venison and python meat to roast.

And that's not all, after nightfall, the two had dinner and went out twice. The last trip did not return until before dawn, and two more panicked deer and four trembling antelopes were brought in. These deer and antelope are solitary animals that flee quickly at the slightest hint of trouble, and hunters rarely catch them alive.

In particular, the four antelopes are tall and slender, with eyes as big as gazelles, more than one meter tall, and seventy or eighty pounds. There is a black stripe on the body, black spots on the side of the body, and the rest of the body is pure white, which is endearing.

"What kind of antelope is this, like an impala and a gazelle? How did you catch it? Chen Qiaoshan looked at the antelope dodging around the bonfire and asked incredulously. These days, the team has repeatedly opened his eyes, and now he doesn't find it strange that something magical is happening to them.

"Neither, it's a springbo. This guy is a speed runner in the animal world, with a maximum speed of nearly 100 kilometers per hour, second only to the pronghorn and cheetah. It is also the 'hurdle jumping champion', chased by the cheetah, it can jump nearly four meters high, and the farthest can jump ten meters. Moreover, the jumping and dodging are extremely flexible, and its natural predator, the cheetah, is difficult to catch it, and other animals have no way to deal with it. Zhuang Yushu said.

"How did you catch them?"

"On the route it often walks, especially in the crevices of the bushes, lower the rope and catch one by one!" Chen Weimin drove the animals to the upper level of the cave, tied them to the rocks, and lit them with a pine next to them.

Next, they worked for two more days, collecting a large number of plant stems and leaves, mushrooms, firewood, pine and so on. These are not all for the animals, a considerable part of them are dried and prepared for the team to eat on their own.

Chen Qiaoshan saw this qiē in his eyes, and this movement seemed to be preparing to stay here for a long time. He couldn't help but ask, "Are we going to hide here?" Once discovered, it's terrible, build yì infiltrate Lancang from the border! I feel like there will be our people there......"

Liu Weimin and Zhuang Yushu couldn't help laughing.

Zhang Wuchang explained, "Nanshan, this will, they are waiting for us at the border!" They had helicopters, and in about a week, when they couldn't find any trace of us, they would start scouting the jungle east of the Tuojiang River. That's when we had the most difficult time. The most important thing now is to stock up on food and firewood, and no matter how difficult it is, we must also survive them with static braking! ”

Chen Qiaoshan was stunned when he heard this, "Survive them?" What do you mean......"

Zhuang Yushu took over the conversation, "The tactics of the heron are right, we disappeared into the mountains next to the Mengtianfu Airport, and so far they have not discovered us, but according to our possible retreat route, they have cast a net in this jungle. Concealment and hiding in the snow are the only ways at present. If once we are exposed, this is the hinterland of Annam, it will be difficult to fly! ”

"Don't worry about Nanshan, it's inaccessible, the mountains are high and the forests are dense, and the food is abundant." Stay up for less than a month, and they'll withdraw. Besides, even if the entrance to the cave is discovered, we can also escape the ......river through the exit on the cliff in Guò," Liu Weimin comforted with a weak heart.

In fact, the exit on the stone wall by the river made him feel uncomfortable. He reached out to check the surface of the river, which was infested with strange animals that made him feel that this place was unusual......

Chen Qiaoshan was skeptical when he heard this, and shook his head wordlessly, he couldn't believe it.

From the beginning of the retreat into the jungle at Mengtianfu Airport, the team has been sneaking through the primeval rainforest. Although Chen Qiaoshan was also a soldier, he did not undergo harsh training. The constant trekking through the jungle, hiding, and running in the inaccessible jungle has brought his body to the limit, and he almost sometimes collapses to the point of wanting to give up.

Small animals such as leeches, spiders, and ants, wild boars, wolves, and other large animals, miasma, and polluted water can kill them. The most terrible thing is the weather in the jungle of Anbei, the sun bakes the jungle hot during the day, and they are under the jungle, like walking in a steamer, the heat is unbearable. At night, the temperature in the jungle drops, and people shiver from the cold. Zhang Wuchang and the other three would squeeze Chen Qiaoshan in the middle, and everyone would huddle together and close their eyes for a while.
