Chapter 266: Night Attack
Yazhou is located southwest of Yizhou, and according to Yuan Shoucheng's diary, it was the place where the transport ship flew to the west after losing control, and the expedition team followed the clues provided by Li Su to search for the mountains to the west through Guò Yazhou.
After a five-day trek, Li Su and Qin Huaiyu and their entourage had arrived in Yazhou, and after a short rest in Yazhou, they continued to advance towards the mountains, and soon found the marks left by the expedition members.
Looking at the endless primeval jungle in front of him, Li Su frowned, trekking in such a primeval jungle, not to mention encountering enemies, even facing various natural creatures will cause casualties to the army.
"Qin Huaiyu!" , the army stopped in front of the jungle, Li Su shouted.
Qin Huaiyu was exploring the edge of the mountain forest, and when he heard Li Su's voice, he immediately returned, and said, "Your Highness, what are your orders?" ”
"Arrange the soldiers who use flashlights in the front, the back and the middle, the jungle is so dark, many things can't be seen clearly and it is easy to be dangerous." Li Su ordered, although he swept a lot of cities, Li Su still didn't get a lot of flashlights, so he could only allocate them to the elite troops and concentrate superior resources.
Qin Huaiyu answered yes, and then let the herald give the order, and when he turned around, Qin Huaiyu said again: "Your Highness, you still don't go in, right?" Just wait for us to go in, there will be no problem with so many people. ”
"Sooner or later, you'll have to go in, it's all the same." Li Su touched the golden key hanging around his neck and said, there are some things that he must activate himself.
Sighing heavily, Qin Huaiyu was quite helpless, no one in Yizhou could miss Li Su now, so his pressure was also very great, in case Li Su had three long and two short, he had to go back with his head, "Forward!" ”。 Qin Huaiyu shouted, and then he returned to Li Su's side, intending to protect Li Su throughout the whole process, so as not to have an accident.
After all, there were only 20 or 30 million people left in the vast land at that time, and the restrictions of various tools also made people dare not go into the jungle lightly, because the number of jackals, tigers and leopards in Li Su was too large, and the animal density of the contemporary zoo was not far behind.
Walk through the sparse jungle in the early part of the road. The weeds and trees in the jungle began to thicken, and the sunlight could only reach the thick layer of fallen leaves through a limited crevice, but the faint light and heat could not dispel the gloom of the jungle and the damp smell of rotting plants.
The scout soldiers looked for the marks left by the expedition in front, and came back from time to time to report the situation, otherwise the army would not dare to advance rashly, such a huge forest, if they got lost in it, without the barbarians, they themselves would be finished.
After a day's trek. The army still did not arrive at the location of the transport plane, Li Su had no choice but to order a night's rest in the jungle before continuing to advance, and after a day of hard trekking in the jungle, the soldiers were tired enough. Dozens of people gathered in a circle, found some firewood in the jungle and lit a bonfire.
"I didn't expect that place to be so far away!" Qin Huaiyu complained, if this is a war, he has no temper at all, but in this jungle there are invisible enemies everywhere. Along the way, many soldiers were not bitten by poisonous insects, and they had a large swollen body, if it were not for the war doctor who accompanied the team. I'm afraid there will be a lot of casualties just today.
Li Su recalled the words of the expedition member, "It took the expedition team three days to get out of this forest, and now that they are on the route, we should be able to be much faster than them, now go back and have a good rest, maybe we will be there tomorrow." ”
nodded, this day was frightened, and he only relied on two legs, Qin Huaiyu was also tired, and fell asleep after a while in Li Su's tent, saying that he wanted to protect Li Su, which made Li Su very helpless, just his earth-shattering snoring, it was already terrible.
After studying the route provided by the expedition team members against the map, and confirming that he had not deviated, Li Su put down the map and prepared to sleep, when he just lay down and suddenly heard the sound of dense gunfire outside, as well as the dense shouting sound of the soldiers.
Qin Huaiyu woke up suddenly, grabbed the silver gun placed beside him and rushed out, Li Su took the submachine gun he had just put down in his hand and rushed out.
"What's going on?" The light of the flashlight outside the tent at this time is very mixed, but the uniformity is to the depths of the jungle, and even the soldiers used a portable flashlight, this kind of flashlight with a battery, the brightness is very large, and things can be illuminated clearly a hundred meters away.
Qin Huaiyu was talking to a soldier at this time, and when he saw Li Yu coming out, his face was solemn, and he said: "We were attacked, and a regiment far away from the army lost more than half, but the people who attacked us did not please us, leaving more than a hundred corpses. ”
"Let's take a look!" Li Su's face was also heavy when he heard Qin Huaiyu's words, now they are the enemy and I am the enemy, and they are completely the target of others in the dark night.
Qin Huaiyu nodded and let the soldier lead the way, while he looked around vigilantly and escorted Li Su forward.
When he arrived at the place of the accident, Li Su saw the casualties of the soldiers, and also saw the barbarians mentioned by the expedition members, these people were wearing fur clothes, including deer skin, tiger skin, wolf skin and other different furs, and even Li Su also saw a black and white fur, which was very similar to the skin of a giant panda, and these people were all dark-skinned, and their faces were coated with blood-like horizontal blood marks.
"Your Highness, this is the weapon they use." Qin Huaiyu handed the spear to Li Su.
The length of this spear is about one and a half meters, and it is pure wood, but the tail end of the spear is very sharp, and it is dark green, and it is obviously smeared with something, "How is the wounded soldier?" ”
"They were so stiff that they couldn't move at all, and the war doctors couldn't do anything about it." Qin Huaiyu said.
Li Su nodded, sure enough, the expedition team members said that the situation was exactly the same, and according to the expedition members, this toxin did not seem to be able to kill people, and the barbarians took advantage of a little bit to catch the living expedition members.
"Let the soldiers not take off their armor!" Li Su glanced at the corpses on the ground, none of the soldiers of this regiment were wearing plate armor, presumably they all took off when they were disgusted and uncomfortable at night, otherwise, with these wooden spears, how could these barbarians hurt the soldiers wearing plate armor.
Qin Huaiyu was also a little annoyed, and scolded the captain of the regiment, saying that he would go back and settle accounts with him after the autumn, and the captain was also guilty, and a big man cried like a child.
Li Su sighed when he saw it, during this time, the Yizhou army won a series of victories in a series of wars, and it was a very easy victory, which made the soldiers relax their vigilance, after going back, he must kill this kind of atmosphere, otherwise the arrogant soldiers will be defeated, the Japanese army was so elite in some battles, it was still defeated by the people with machetes in some battles, not to mention that he was still in the era of cold weapon tactics.
Because of such a thing, the soldiers did not dare to be careless, they all put on armor, and the patrols were also increased several times, patrolling back and forth in the temporary barracks, and the light of the flashlights was not shooting into the jungle.
The soldiers who went to pursue were called back by Li Su, and when they went out to pursue at night, even if they had a flashlight, they would also suffer, after all, this was on the territory of the barbarians, and there might be traps everywhere, but this attack also made Li Su understand that the transport plane was not far from them.
Because of the heightened vigilance, or the counterattack of the soldiers, the barbarians also felt frightened, and in the second half of the night, there were no other unexpected incidents.
The next day, early in the morning, Li Su ordered to continue on the way, as the expedition members said, they encountered many traps, but because they were wearing thick armor, some soldiers were wounded, but there were no casualties.
Li Su and Qin Huaiyu walked in the middle of the team, and with the heavy protection of the soldiers, it was safer, just like Li Su calculated last night, after trekking for two hours, the cheers of the soldiers suddenly came from the front, and the brightness in the woods was getting bigger and bigger.
Li Su's face showed a touch of joy, they finally arrived at their destination. (To be continued......)
