How to cool the endless blood in a fleeting life like a meteor.

At 5:46 a.m., I led the Squat Squad to resolutely decide to enter the rainforest and arrest suspected criminals without making direct contact with the command. Due to the suddenness of the situation, I could only choose a group of people to track and hunt, and the group of villagers who left by the waterway was really difficult to capture, and the only thing left was the group of people in suits who returned to the forest. I had to choose to arrest the group that shot and killed the people just now. The blonde woman led six men in sunglasses of various shapes back into the forest after the trade, and according to the route and direction, it was estimated that they should have evacuated towards the other side of the boundary monument.

After entering the rainforest, I suddenly paused when I passed a large tree with curved branches on one side, deliberately leaving a memory in my mind, this is the location where the bodies of the villagers who were killed just now were buried, and the surrounding trees are straight, but this tree has obvious characteristics. I didn't have time to pause too much, I followed Kang Jianhu's footprints into the deeper forest, while taking care not to step on the noisy branches, I carried the loaded Type 95 automatic rifle to my chest, and led Kang Jianhu to continue to follow and pursue from the low bushes by the river, and the three of them responded to Liu Yi and the three of them, and the capture and encirclement network of five people was launched.

The blonde woman we pursued was flanked by a total of six men in suits who might be armed with guns, and the other two villagers didn't know if they were armed or not, but in terms of the physique of those two people, they shouldn't pose much of a threat, but they should pay special attention to the unidentified men in suits with different physiques who might be armed with guns.

The rainforest is green in the early morning, and the original freshness has long been replaced by the tension of each of us. The camouflage military uniform is hidden in the mottled shadows of the trees, always vigilant for the trampled branches and leaves under their feet, and gradually disappears into the sound of trickling water behind them, and the atmosphere is tense and suffocating. Don't go too fast as you can track and weave through the leaf-covered rainforest, or the sound of branches breaking under your feet will make a crisp clicking sound, alerting the other party. Everyone was very vigilant and approaching the target, but seven black shadows loomed in the forest in front of us, and it was difficult for us to approach quickly without being noticed.

Fifty meters away, which didn't seem too far away, and every time I got closer, I had to risk being discovered, Kang Jianhu whispered beside me, "Damn, how do you feel that they are more familiar with the terrain of this barren mountain than we are?" ”。

"Those two villagers are leading the way, right?" I leaned sideways behind a tree and whispered to him.

"Perhaps, but to be able to move at that speed in this roadless forest is not like an ordinary person at all." After five minutes of tracking, we were always forty meters apart, and even if we were closer, it was only a little closer. Kang Jianhu and I half-bent over, raised our guns and continued to move parallel to Liu Yi and the others.

At 5:53, I buried my head in the clock and looked at the time. Suddenly, something unexpected happened not far ahead, just as Liu Yi and the other two people were approaching the distance of thirty-five meters, they suddenly stopped, to be precise, the last tallest man among them stopped, he leaned forward slightly and said something to his companion in front of him, and then turned sideways to the left sharply and left, and the figure quickly disappeared deeper into the rainforest.

Such a move was unexpected to me, and not far away, Liu Yi gave me a gesture and asked me if I should follow the person who left the team?

After thinking for a few seconds, I put my index and middle fingers to my eyes, then pointed my palms at the woman in the suit and gestured back, meaning to continue the pursuit of the original target. But the person who left the team just now had to be vigilant, and a similar situation had never happened in countless training exercises, and it was impossible for me to divide one of the five people who were already short of manpower to go out to pursue the person who left the team.

At this time, the unusual behavior of the people in front of me can't help but make me wonder if our whereabouts have been exposed? A hint of unease welled up in my heart.

At 5:55, I continued to follow the blonde woman carrying the metal box. The tall man who had left the team had completely disappeared, and the steps of several people in front of him were still light. Not quite right, my gut tells me that something doesn't seem right, and if they've sensed we're tracking, are they going to keep running away, or are they preparing to fight back? I'm already sweating a little on my forehead. The mottled shadows of the trees obscured our tracks but also blurred our vision, a group of people approached a distance of nearly thirty meters, and the figures of several people in front of us seemed even more erratic.

At 5:57, the branches and foliage in the rainforest had become denser and denser, and even completely obscured the surrounding environment, Kang Jianhu and I gradually moved away from the parallel route next to the stream to meet Liu Yi and them, and if it wasn't for the sunrise position to give us direction, we could hardly tell the actual location at this time.

"They seem to have changed their original direction of travel, just now they were facing southwest, and now it should be northwest." Jiang Yujun looked at the military watch with a bearing hand on his wrist.

"Something isn't right." Liu Yi lowered his voice as he marched with his gun in his hand.

That's what I'm most worried about, "Could it be that we've already exposed our whereabouts?" ”

Kang Jianhu, who is usually rectum, still has a firm expression, "If it's exposed, go up and harden it, hum!" Who's afraid of whom? ”

"Be vigilant." Liu Yi patted Kang Jianhu on the shoulder and took the lead in approaching the past. Although he is usually ruthless, his mind is very detailed.

At 5:59 a.m., suddenly, the blonde woman who was walking in the front stopped and glanced back at the forest path she had passed, an unexpected subtle movement that forced us all to hide behind trees or crawl in the surface bushes, and I wasn't sure if the team had been exposed. After a few seconds, she seemed to remember something, whispered a few words to the few people beside her, and then continued to walk forward with a calm expression, the metal box in her hand still not leaving her hand.

At this point, I became more and more sure that our whereabouts had been revealed, but what were the intentions of the other party? If she noticed something unusual, she shouldn't have reacted and immediately ran away or turned to fight back, why did she act so calmly?

Before I had time to think about it, I passed through a dense low bush, the trees obscured the view more severely, and the dirt road became steeper and more difficult to walk, but the pace of several people in front of me began to speed up significantly. At this time, a thought kept echoing in my mind: cancel the operation, return as soon as possible to get in touch with the command and rearrange the operation.

But how can a spilled net not be wet?

At six o'clock, several people who were originally walking in front of them suddenly began to disperse in different directions, and I didn't have time to give orders, Kang Jianhu and Jiang Yujun had already taken the lead. From a distance, several people in front of them had already dispersed, leaving only two shorter but already muscular Asians who continued to follow the blonde woman.

You can't keep tracking, "Stop! ”

Through the mottled shadows of the trees, the messy footsteps in front of me could no longer distinguish the number of people and directions, and my intuition told me that something was wrong, and that these people had behaved much more than expected. But I haven't made up my mind what to do next for us who were in the jungle and were originally stalking and hunting.

"The other party may have noticed it." Liu Yi looked in the direction in which they had disappeared, and he could still see the black suit that was extremely incongruous with the green color from a distance of tens of meters.

"Just rush up and catch the woman who carried the metal box, as long as you take her and the metal box in her hand back, everything can be explained." Kang Jianhu looked at it together, gritted his teeth, and said.

"Captain, I think the tiger is right." Lu Ping also agreed.

Jiang Yujun then nodded as well, I still looked at Liu Yi who was still locked in front of me with doubts, "Second brother? ”

Liu Yi didn't reply immediately, and he had a rare hesitation at this time, "I think something is strange." ”

That's what I'm just worried about.

"Don't hesitate, captain, there are only two of you around that woman now, go up and catch them and go back, what can those minions do? Their bosses are in our hands. Kang Jianhu had a posture of being ready to fly, and he wanted to rush forward after speaking.

Jiang Yujun and Lu Ping nodded one after another, but Liu Yi did not express his position, and I hesitated to continue this uncertain action.

I took two seconds to assess the combat effectiveness, and at this time, the five of us were all veterans of the armed police who had undergone rigorous training and exercises, and we were all the best in the regimental headquarters in all previous exercises. The weapon in the hand is equipped with a Type 95 automatic rifle as standard, which can effectively penetrate eight millimeters of steel plate within 100 meters. Perennial field training patrol, familiar with the surrounding terrain. The pistol in the opponent's hand should shoot at a distance of no more than 50 meters, and the effective killing distance should be within 30 meters.

After the preliminary judgment, I gave an order, "Second brother, wait a while, you will bring the fox and Lao Jiang to arrest you, and the tiger and I will be on guard on the left and right, and the speed must be fast." ”

Rustling... Wind...

Liu Yi leaned forward with a gun on his back, Lu Ping followed behind him and looked ahead intently, they wanted to accurately locate the trajectory of the target but seemed to have lost the accurate position of the target, and could only use the faint sound direction to determine the approximate direction of the women in the suit and the group.

Is the direction of the sound really the real location?

I walked around the other side with my gun in my hand, and my doubts grew heavier, but now I had to force my composure. Every teammate has a look of ambition in their eyes, and my conservative judgment is unfounded?

Fifty meters, forty-five meters, forty meters...

At a position approaching thirty-five meters, Liu Yi took Lu Ping and Jiang Yujun to rush up. My heart rate suddenly increased, my nerves began to tense, I nodded at them, and the arrest finally began.

The three people in front rushed forward with lightning speed, and Kang Jianhu and I followed closely behind to guard the surroundings. The clatter of a tree branch being trampled between the sound of scraping the leaves was enough to alert several people in front, and the distance of only thirty-five meters could be successfully captured in no more than five seconds, and it was almost successful.

One after another, the team members burrowed into the depths of the thick forest leaves in front of them, and suddenly lost their visual reference to each other. I refreshed myself and didn't think much about it, and followed Kang Jianhu into it.

Suddenly, dense forest leaves emerged, and the vision that was originally blocked by dense branches and leaves was much brighter, but the team members stood in place with each other looking at each other. After burrowing out the thick foliage, a large open space appeared in front of us, which was half the size of a basketball court.

What about people? What about the people who are about to be captured just a few seconds apart? Except for the two villagers who stood in place in a trance, staring straight at the sky, the rest of the people in suits all disappeared.

What the hell is going on? My nerves tightened.

"Don't move, raise your hands!" Jiang Yujun yelled at the two villagers, raising his gun and moving towards the two strangely behaved villagers.

The two villagers dressed as marionettes froze in place, their two hands that were originally hanging down were raised very incongruously, and their expressions were still in the same trance as just now, still looking up at the sky, not looking at us.

"Be vigilant!" I shouted to the team members, looking away from the villagers, but it was hard to see the shadows in the depths except for the thick foliage of the trees.

The sunrise was bright in the morning, and the light in the clearing and the forest formed a huge contrast, and we who were in the clearing at this time estimated that we had completely exposed our whereabouts.

The villager standing on the left slowly lowered his head and glanced in my direction. The look didn't seem to take me into account, and then he looked up again at the empty blue sky. His pupils weren't focused on me, as if he had seen through me, looking at the rainforest behind me.

My vest suddenly felt cold, and I involuntarily turned my head to look at the rainforest behind me, which seemed a little deep. What the hell is going on? My heart felt as hard as if it had been scratched by something.

"Where did the rest go?" Jiang Yujun approached the two trance-like villagers without authorization, and roared loudly, "Say it quickly!" What about people? ”

Kang Jianhu and I guarded the direction we came, and Liu Yi and Lu Ping looked forward at Jiang Yujun and the two villagers, and there were no dead ends in their sights. As I looked around, beads of sweat slipped down my chin and hit the back of my gun-wielding hand due to nervous tension, and my intuition told me that the mysterious men in suits were not far away, and that danger could lurk everywhere in the seemingly calm glades.

Rustling... Rustling...

If you listen closely, there seems to be a slight rustle everywhere, like the sound of tree branches swaying in the wind, but it is faintly visible. The players around the field were also alert and began to look around, and I tried to distract myself from my surroundings as much as possible, after all, there was a huge difference in psychology from the usual exercises.

Rustle, rustle...

The cat steps on the sand, getting closer and closer to its prey...

The breeze blew on his face, blowing through the traces of sweat on his cheeks, and there was a slight coolness.

For a moment, time seemed to stand still.

"Poof! Burst! The sound of two pistol mufflers came to my ears with a rustling sound, Jiang Yujun, who was about to talk to the villagers a few meters away, fell to the ground, I couldn't even clearly identify the direction from which the gunshots came, and in a panic, I subconsciously rushed to Jiang Yujun who fell to the ground, and lay down.

"Lie down!" I yelled around as I crawled.

Jiang Yujun, who was shot and fell to the ground with his hand, did not react, he was lying on the ground completely paralyzed, I didn't even have time to distinguish the location of the gun in his body, and once again turned his face away to look around at the deep rainforest. How can it be? Two shots from a silenced pistol killed a professionally trained team member without revealing the location of the shot.

Blood poured out from Jiang Yujun's heart, and I covered the wound with one hand, and held the gun in the other hand to carefully recall the direction where the bullet flew just now.

Jiang Yujun lay on the grass and didn't move at all, and what surprised me even more was that the villagers in the middle of the two clearings were still standing in place looking at us with a blank expression, exactly the same situation as they had just seen by the river, what happened to them?

Who is the person who shoots, and what kind of person can do the assassination without revealing his body? My heart was in my throat, I swallowed my saliva unnaturally, and my forehead was sweating all the time, what should I do? Everyone was waiting for my orders.

Just as I was still hesitating, Liu Yi seemed to sense something, and a sturdy body plunged into the jungle from the side, "Stop!" ”

"You two stay on guard!" I didn't have time to say anything more, so I followed Liu Yi into the jungle, and that direction was closer to the boundary monument.

"Captain!" Lu Ping shouted behind me, his voice gradually becoming a little indistinct...

If you have brought them out, you must bring them back, and no one will be left behind. I didn't care about responding, and I could only gallop in the direction of Liu Yi behind me.

At 6:11, the sky was blue, the sun was already starting to shine, the rainforest was green, and I was in a battlefield where I couldn't smell the smoke of gunpowder, and now I had to follow Liu Yi's footsteps to provide him with support, even if I could catch a man in a suit, I decided so.

Who is the other party? What went wrong with the whole arrest? How did our tracking operations expose the traces? While chasing me, I had to think back to every scene just now, what went wrong?

I galloped a few hundred meters in the shade of the tree with a gun, and I was about thirty meters away from Liu Yi, and Liu Yi was about twenty meters away from the black shadow in front of me. The distance has been maintained like this, why is the speed and endurance of the other party no less than ours, even if he is an imaginary enemy in the exercise, he will not obviously have an advantage over us in all aspects, who is this group of people in suits?

Spots of light and shadows flickered in the shade of the trees, and I didn't dare to slow down.

Suddenly, a light flashed in the rainforest in front of me, and I instinctively fell to one side, "Whoosh~" A bullet grazed my ear and hit the trunk of a tree diagonally behind. I fell to the ground, gasping for breath, my palms sweating, clutching my automatic rifle. Liu Yi had already run away, and the direction in which he shot at me just now was not the direction we were tracking, which meant that I was ambushed just now. Originally as pursuers, we have become, ambushed objects? For a while, my role and thinking were not completely reversed.

Just as I tried my best to suppress my heaving chest, still struggling with what to do, the sound of rifle fire sounded at the same time in the direction of Liu Yi's disappearance and the direction of the open space where Kang Jianhu was staying, which were two completely opposite directions, but obviously Liu Yi's voice was closer.

Whether it was the shadow of the trees or the rustling sound, it was enough to stir my tense nerves, and I still didn't slow down, thinking about catching up with Liu Yi and then finding a way. I no longer paid attention to the clatter of broken branches under my feet, and galloped towards the depths of the trees with all my might. Suddenly, a figure galloped towards me, and I subconsciously raised my gun and hid sideways in the bushes beside me. My back fell heavily against the leaf-covered half-sloped dirt, and then I slowly held my gun to my breath, ready for the first loaded bullet for my target.

Passing by less than five meters beside me, I saw this person clearly, it turned out to be Liu Yi's figure, full of camouflage, but the pace was completely different from just now, it didn't look like he was tracking at all, more like he was retreating or dodging. I followed the subtle sound and looked towards the other side of Liu Yi's journey, and about twenty meters behind Liu Yi, a dark figure wearing a suit and a slightly thin physique finally appeared. Since I was lying quietly in the dark, he didn't find me in time, but his position was exactly the blind spot of Liu Yi's vision relative to Liu Yi's field of vision, and the distance from the bushes I was in to the person was at most fifteen meters.

At the same time that I quietly raised the gun to him, he also quietly raised the silenced pistol in his hand and aimed it at Liu Yi who was galloping. I didn't care about aiming carefully at the last moment, I knew in my heart that at this time, the probability of hitting the opponent's vital part was at most thirty percent, and that person was also aiming carefully, in order to increase the probability of hitting Liu Yi's vital part.

I pulled the trigger with my breath, and the bullet cut a straight line through the gap in the leaves, and sure enough, it only hit the trunk of the tree next to it. The man in the suit reacted extremely quickly, and after being attacked, he immediately abandoned his original target, and raised his gun in my direction twice with his wrist, "Poof, poof." ”

The bullet came at me, passing me right away and into the dirt slope.

Liu Yi heard my gunshot, turned around and came back to shoot at the position of the silenced pistol just now, and the man in the suit did not hesitate for a moment, calmly turned around and quickly left the place, hiding in the forest leaves.

I was about to chase after him, but Liu Yi grabbed me by the shoulder in time and told me in sign language not to continue the pursuit, but to hide and quickly withdraw from the area.

A burst of gunfire echoed in the forest, the frightened birds scattered, the rainforest returned to calm, and Liu Yi and I exchanged glances, "Let's go back to the open space first, and then go back to contact the headquarters." ”

At 6:15, just as Liu Yi and I were about to withdraw from our concealed whereabouts, the sound of automatic rifle fire sounded again in the direction of the open space where Kang Jianhu and Lu Ping were staying. Liu Yi and I exchanged glances again, and accelerated towards Kang Jianhu's direction.

When Liu Yi and I rushed out of the bushes and returned to the clearing, the two villagers who had been glazed eyes were still looking up in a trance, as if nothing had happened. However, Kang Jianhu and Lu Ping are gone, where did they go?

I quickly approached Jiang Yujun, who had fallen to the ground and was lifeless, and I kept silently thinking in my heart that I couldn't just throw him down like this. On the other side, Liu Yi seemed to have found new blood stains, and looked along the trail towards the road where he came.

"Let's retreat first, this time it's not that simple, just now I tracked down the past and almost shot the murderer who ambushed Lao Jiang, but it still failed. Go back and get in touch with the command and ask for support, it's hard for the few of us who have left us to complete the mission. Liu Yi half-crouched behind me and looked around, and whispered in my ear in a low voice.

I have to admit that Liu Yi's opinion is reasonable, I nodded, and pointed to Jiang Yujun, who was lying quietly on the ground and was unresponsive, "Anyway, I have to bring him back." ”

Liu Yi shook his head sadly, "If you can find the tiger and the fox, go back and get in touch with the command, and we will come back today." ”

"But..."

"Do you want to die two more brothers?" Liu Yi's tone was fierce, "Find them first, I don't know how the tiger and the fox are doing now." ”

It dawned on me that his instincts were right, and that we had no way to take away the bodies of our comrades without reluctance to protect ourselves, so we could only put them down temporarily. I clenched my fists on my knees, and secretly determined that I would definitely come back and not leave my brother behind.

"Except for the woman who carried the metal box, the other six people should not be simple." Liu Yi whispered.

At 6:19, Liu Yi and I searched in the direction of the blood stain. Birds and insects chirp around the clearing, birds still fly through the sky from time to time, and the temperature gradually rises with the sunrise. Liu Yi and I were guarding the surroundings back to back with guns, and there were almost no dead spots in the 360-degree line of sight. From the very beginning of tracking the group, they had traveled about six to seven kilometers to the clearing, and although it was not completely deep into the wooded area, it was quite a distance from the ambush where the off-road vehicles were originally parked. Liu Yi and I followed the direction we came, and finally found Kang Jianhu lying on one knee less than 100 meters away from the clearing in the secret place of the rainforest.

"Tiger!?" We rushed over, and then we saw Lu Ping under Kang Jianhu, who was covering Lu Ping's neck with his hands, but the blood still couldn't stop gushing from his neck.

"Captain!" Seeing me rushing over, Kang Jianhu couldn't control his grief and anger and shouted, "Fox, he..."

I grabbed Lu Ping's hand, which was already weak due to excessive blood loss, with one hand, and he didn't seem to have the strength to speak, "Captain... Captain... Take them with you... Withdraw to go first... Contact the company commander... Quick..."

"It'll be fine, let's go back together." I wiped the sweat off his cheeks with my other hand, trying to comfort Lu Ping, who still couldn't stop the bleeding.

"Quick... Go..."The voice was broken, Lu Ping's hand drooped weakly, and his pupils quietly dilated.

"Fox! Hold on! Kang Jianhu's voice was full of resentment, and the hand covering the wound was still pressing as hard as he could.

A vengeful anger suddenly ignited in my body, and I held the gun and wanted to return to the glade, but I was just taking a step but was held down by Liu Yi, who had been holding a gun on guard.

"What do you want to do?"

"I'm going to kill them and avenge them." The anger almost overwhelmed me.

"Have you forgotten our situation? Moreover, if we leave the predetermined warning position without authorization and go deep into the dangerous situation, we must first get in touch with the company commander, if no one reports what we have seen to the superiors, then the brothers will not die in vain! Although Liu Yi was angry in his words, he seemed surprisingly calm.

His words suddenly poured down like a basin of cold water, and I looked at the deep rainforest in front of me as if it was a bottomless throat, waiting to swallow us all.

"Captain! We can't leave the fox and the old ginger behind. Kang Jianhu still refused to let go, and there was a trace of frustration in his eyes.

"Tiger, listen to me. Now it's just you, me and Zhuang Yan, and it's hard to get out with just two people. But what we see and what we have experienced must always be reported to the above, as well as the corpses of the villagers buried under the crooked tree, as long as we go back and follow the clues to find the way of this group of people, and then find a way to help them avenge them. But the premise is that a few of us must get out alive, otherwise Lao Jiang and the fox will die in vain. Liu Yi leaned his head against Kang Jianhu's forehead, holding a gun in one hand and the back of his neck with the other.

After a long time, he wiped a handful of tears, loosened Lu Ping's wounds, watched his brother sleep forever, and then picked up the gun again and walked with me and Liu Yi on the way they came.
