Chapter 80: An Unexpected Discovery

Good luck doesn't always befall the same person, but Tang Cheng and they are undoubtedly lucky, after a night of recuperation, the next day only a morning of rapid marching, when it was noon, Tang Cheng had already received the return of the forward scouts, and the team of scouts led by Wu Shan had already seen the edge of the woodland. There is no less than 10 miles between Tangcheng and Wushan, and if the 10-mile road is placed in Leduo, it will be an hour's journey, but now it is in the jungle, and it took Tangcheng more than 2 hours for them to reach Wushan's location to meet with them.

"Sir, you see, as long as we bypass the mountain in front of us again, we can really get out of the forest." Wu Shan, who was standing on the edge of the cliff, pointed to a small hill in front of him and gestured to Tang Cheng, Tang Cheng took a telescope and looked forward, and he could already see a large area of flat terrain in his sight. It was already confirmed that he was about to get out of the jungle, but Tang Cheng's heart didn't have too much excitement, since Wu Shan, who had no brains, was already sure that he was going out of the forest, why bother going up to this cliff by himself, it would take a lot of time to go up and down the mountain.

The hill in front of him was the last barrier out of the forest, but Tang Cheng didn't dare to be careless, but sent another sharp soldier to search for it again. The spearheads slowly pushed forward the straggler line, and the branches and leaves were rubbed into the sound of rustling, and everyone's nerves were tense, for fear that a Japanese soldier would pop out of nowhere and make himself the first unlucky person to die. The rock dragon and the dice walking on both flanks of the skirmish line raised their hands almost simultaneously to warn, and the skirmish line suddenly stood still, and the spearheads immediately crouched down and leveled the weapons in their hands.

Tang Cheng, who fell far behind, also picked up the telescope and looked ahead, and there were vicious and suspicious places in his field of vision, behind the trunks, on the canopy, in the grass, behind the stones, all these places that appeared in the line of sight were labeled suspiciously by Tang Cheng in his heart. As the two of them made gesturing one after another, the skirmish line that had stopped continued to move forward, but everyone's speed slowed down significantly, and most of the energy of the spearheads was spent on vigilance.

After crossing the grassy slope more than 100 meters long, the soldiers were finally able to breathe a sigh of relief, as long as they had cover to dodge, they no longer worried that the Japanese soldiers would suddenly jump out of their side. Seeing that the soldiers had safely arrived at the foot of the hill, Tang Cheng made a gesture, and the formation that had been waiting behind him changed again, and all the soldiers moved towards the hill in a squad unit, and the guns in everyone's hands were also on fire early.

The dice and the rock dragon had already led the spearheads into the forest below the hill, and now it was quiet everywhere, and even the wind was gone. Tang Cheng looked up at the sky, and the tiled blue canopy had some cloudy gray, like the leaf green of the woods in front of him. Looking at the clouds, you can see that this hot weather may continue for a long time. But this is good, it is better than a rainy day, the kind of days that are wet from top to bottom covered in muddy water, Tang Cheng has already passed enough.

The soldiers who entered the forest have not been moved, and they have waited for another two or three minutes, but there is still no movement, what is going on? At this moment, Tang Cheng was not at all nervous, some were just the kind of eagerness to wait, and two or three minutes passed quietly, and there was still no movement in the woods, the more this was the case, the more unpredictable the situation became. Tang Cheng subconsciously turned around and looked at the soldiers crouching behind him, seeing that some people couldn't wait, Tang Cheng began to get anxious.

Wiping the beads of sweat from his face, Tang Cheng glanced at a not very complete bush next to him, which could somewhat block out some of the sunlight. At this time, he really wanted to go over and hide inside, to calm his heart for a while. However, he didn't move, there was no news or movement from the dice, and Tang Cheng, who was so anxious, didn't have the heart to hide behind the bush to enjoy the shade. Tang Cheng moved forward with his carbine, the grass in front of him was still very deep, and the woods on the edge of the grass had not been damaged, and they were still flourishing.

Tang Cheng's heart began to wonder, according to what he saw, there should not be Japanese troops here. Without Tang Cheng's order, no one dared to move the soldiers crouching in the grass, except for the hot and suffocating air, the entire grass slope was silent at this time, and it was terrifyingly silent. Everyone was waiting patiently, waiting for news from the spearheads, they didn't know what was happening in the woods, they didn't know what happened to the spearheads who entered the woods, all they could do now was wait, wait patiently and ruthlessly.

Lying on the ground, Tang Cheng wiped the sweat on his face again, at this moment he couldn't know the details of the forest, so he could only lie on the ground like this and wait quietly, so as not to respond to all changes. A small sound suddenly rushed into Tang Cheng's ears, and before he had time to carefully identify Tang Cheng, he got up from the ground, picked up his gun, moved to the side, and jumped into the bush that he had just looked at. This not only provides shade for Tang Cheng, but also is a good hiding point, aiming the muzzle of the gun at the forest in front of him, Tang Cheng is ready to shoot.

Hiding in the bushes and firing so close to the forest is a deadly way to fight, although it is directly lethal to the enemy, but it is not good for self-protection. However, Tang Cheng thought that this would have a wider line of sight and greater lethality, as long as he could fire first and fully attract the enemy's firepower, then his soldiers would also win the opportunity to fire at the enemy to form a strong firepower suppression. Tang Cheng's anomaly caused a chain reaction among the other soldiers, experienced veterans were already looking for suitable hiding spots, and machine gunners had set up their machine guns and were ready to fire.

After setting up the shooting posture, Tang Cheng behind the bushes waited quietly for dozens of seconds, but there was still no movement. At this time, the scorching sun in the sky shifted to the southwest, and the evaporation of the hot air on the ground made the air seem to become more muggy. There was too much sweat on his face, Tang Cheng wiped the beads of sweat on his face with his hand, and his nerves were already in a trance, and he began to wonder if the movement he had just heard was an illusion.

The first to fire in an encounter often has the upper hand, and that's what wars are, either you kill the other person and get a chance to stay alive, or you are killed by the other side and sleep on the battlefield forever. Destroying the enemy in front of his position was what Tang Cheng was most looking forward to doing, and he would use the most powerful weapons and the most brutal means. Never show mercy to his enemies, fighting a war is so simple, but like this, not only is there no news of his own people, but there is no trace of the enemy, Tang Cheng's head is completely messed up.

Tang Cheng waited anxiously, but the forest in front of him was still quiet, everyone continued to wait, everyone was looking forward to some movement in the forest, even if it was the enemy, it would be better than continuing to wait like this. Just when Tang secretly thought about whether to send another team of sharp soldiers into the forest to find out, he suddenly smelled a smell of blood in his nose, and a spirit flashed in his heart, Tang Cheng immediately changed the direction of the gun, and the upwind outlet with the smell of blood was the direction he needed to watch out for the most.

"Don't shoot, it's your own people." Tang Cheng hadn't seen a figure yet, a voice came from behind a tree more than 20 meters away from him, Tang Cheng carefully identified that the person who came was a veteran scout under the dice. Holding his right hand high and making a gesture for the others to stand still, Tang Cheng, with his carbine, walked out of the bushes and walked towards the veteran scout who was squatting behind a big tree and unwilling to come and talk to him. "Sir, things are a little bad for too many people to know, I can only sue you first."

There are only two people here, Tang Cheng and this veteran scout, and the other party has nothing to hide, so he slowly opened the left hand that he had been holding tightly to Tang Cheng, and immediately shut up Tang Cheng, who really wanted to ask about the mussels, and what the veteran scout's left hand had been holding was an emerald green jade. "We found a Burmese indigenous village, there weren't many people in the village, and some brothers accidentally found a lot of these things in the village. Wu Shan said that the village was full of Kachin people, and they were their sworn enemies, so there would be no living people in the village. ”

It's just that some Burmese people died, which is not a big deal for Tang Cheng, and after taking the jade handed by the veteran scout and playing with it a few times, Tang Cheng whispered a few words to the veteran scout, and then retreated to Mike's side. "The situation is a bit troublesome, the soldiers found a Burmese village in front, the operation of the US military is top secret, we can't let the Burmese know that there are US troops crossing the jungle and moving south, so we have to turn around and leave here immediately."

Rick didn't have the slightest doubt about Tang Cheng's words, and urged his soldiers to speed up and walk straight east against the edge of the woodland, and after about two hours, the exhausted American soldiers suddenly found themselves as if they had walked out of the damn jungle. "Ladies and gentlemen, I have to bring you good news, we have walked out of the jungle, and we will follow the edge of the woodland to the south for a short distance to the red soil slope, and when we reach the red soil slope, we can contact the Ramgar headquarters and ask the headquarters to airdrop supplies to us."

While the American soldiers were cheering and cheering, Tang Cheng pulled Mike aside and told Mike about the Burmese village they had found on the hill and the massacre of the village by Wu Shan and others. Looking at the piece of jade handed over by Tang Cheng, Mike couldn't help frowning and pondering for a while, "No matter what, those Burmese natives can't be kept, now is not the time to be soft, otherwise the black cauldron of Tu Village may have to be carried by us." ”

Tang Cheng nodded in agreement with Michael's words, but Tang Cheng also understood that Mike's move was just to block the news of the discovery of the jade, the fewer people who knew about it, the safer it was, if it was rumored, it would one day reach the ears of those bigwigs in the command, he was just a small captain, not an opponent of those bigwigs.
