Chapter Eighty-Seven: Sun and Moon Cave
Tang Anshu remembered the thing flying overhead: "What is that?" ”
"Monster!" After Gu Feng finished speaking, he pointed sideways at Tang Hualong below, and then hooked his hand.
Tang Hualong immediately climbed up lightly: "Sir? ”
Gu Feng asked in a very low voice, "Did you and Liu Guzhi see anything just now?" ”
Tang Hualong nodded, but did not speak.
Tang Anshu immediately asked, "What is it?" ”
Tang Hualong still refused to say, his face was full of incredulity.
Gu Feng said: "Say it, what you see is true." ”
"Fish, flying fish." After Tang Hualong finished speaking, he hurriedly said, "But it's not the kind of flying fish we usually say." ”
Tang Anshu obviously didn't know that there were flying fish, and he was very surprised: "Fish can fly!?" ”
Gu Feng explained: "There are no flying fish in our East China Sea, there are in the South China Sea, which is not common, but they are not flying, they are gliding on the sea, and they look like flying, but the thing that flew from the top of our heads just now can really fly up and kill people!" ”
Tang Anshu was surprised: "Flying fish kills? ”
Gu Feng pointed to his side: "Tang Hualong, you lie here, wait for the blue light to disappear, and take a closer look at what is in the dark." ”
Tang Anshu asked, "Can he see clearly?" ”
"Tang Hualong and Liu Guzhi were deliberately picked by me, and these two people's eyes are particularly good at night." The ancient wind slid downward for a while, and after signaling Tang Anshu to come down, he drew a strange fish on the cave wall next to him with a stone.
Tang Anshu looked at the fish, it looked like a knifefish, but according to the ancient style painting, the body of this fish was twice as long as that of ordinary knifefish, and it looked like a real knife.
"I named this thing the Fishblade." Gu Feng pointed to his simple painting, and at this time, Benzoin stepped forward, looking at the painting and listening to Gu Feng's narration.
Gu Feng continued: "The fins on both sides of this thing are like wings, I analyze, when flying, you need to flap your wings, and when you reach a certain speed, you put them away, and then shoot directly like a long knife, once it hits the human body, its head will be directly submerged into the body, and at the same time it will begin to bite, and if you want to tear it out, you have to connect the flesh and blood, maybe it will also be connected to the internal organs." ”
When Gu Feng said this, his brows furrowed, and he sighed: "Last time, because we didn't know, most of the brothers were folded underneath. ”
Benzoin thought for a while and asked, "What about cutting off the body of the fish directly?" ”
Gu Feng shook his head: "No, it's useless, I've tried, even if I cut off the body of the fish, this thing won't die for a while, it will continue to bite, even if it is pulled out without flesh and blood, it will eventually die due to excessive blood loss, which is more terrifying than a special arrow." ”
Tang Anshu raised his eyes and looked at the blue light that flashed above again: "This thing will only sneak attack while it is dark, right?" ”
After speaking, Tang Anshu thought of an important question again: "There was a one flying over my head before, and it should have landed in the cave below, why didn't you see it?" ”
Gu Feng looked down: "I don't know, I managed to escape last time under the cover of the brothers." ”
Benzoin frowned, "I don't know if the medicine I brought is enough." ”
Tang Anshu asked Gu Feng: "How long does it take to go down from here and run to the exit of the cave?" ”
Gu Feng thought for a moment: "It takes five minutes to sprint with all your might." ”
"Five minutes?" Tang Anshu's original decision was dispelled in his mind, "It's better to sprint with all your might, this distance is too far." The last time you came down with fifteen people, you lost half of them here, but as far as I can see now, the losses at that time were really not too serious. ”
Although Gu Feng knew that it was the truth, he still didn't like Tang Anshu's words, so he just nodded silently.
"I'm just judging things by facts, Adjutant Gu, offended, I know you love soldiers like sons." Tang Anshu apologized.
Benzoin asked, "Brother Gu, how did you and the rest get out?" ”
"Fish blades are afraid of light and heat, so the more torches the better." Gu Feng said, glancing at the thousand machine bags next to him, "That's why I brought so many torches this time." ”
At this moment, Tang Hualong, who was originally above, slid down in a panic, and Gu Feng grabbed him: "What's wrong?" ”
Tang Hualong, whose face was covered with sweat and had an overly frightened expression, swallowed and said, "Sir, above, below, it's all that kind of thing!" ”
Tang Hualong's words made Gu Feng shudder, and he couldn't help but clench the knife in his hand, although he knew very well that the long knife in his hand was useless in the face of that kind of fish blade, just like on the battlefield, no matter how strong the martial arts were, there was nothing they could do in the face of arrows in the sky.
Tang Anshu and the others couldn't empathize, after all, they didn't know how terrifying the fish blade was.
"What should I do?" Benzoin looked at Gu Feng's pale face and asked, "Big Brother Gu, is there no other way?" ”
Gu Feng shook his head: "There is only this way." ”
Tang Anshu pondered for a while and said, "Column serpentine formation." ”
Tang Hualong was puzzled: "Serpentine formation? ”
"There are burrows all over the ground, and the distance between them can only allow two people to go side by side. There are eight of us, if we are in a group of two, standing in four rows to advance, on the surface, two people in each row can take care of the left and right at the same time, the safest, but once attacked, or between the light and the dark, the narrow passage between the holes is very easy for people to slip out of the formation and fall into the holes. Tang Anshu drew a serpentine formation on the cave wall, "Therefore, the serpentine formation can only be used, and this formation is led by Adjutant Gu and Ah Xiang, advancing side by side, and dealing with it flexibly." ”
Benzoin was puzzled: "Tang Anshu, didn't you say that the two of them will slow down when they advance side by side?" Why did I move forward side by side with Big Brother Gu and take the lead? ”
"I'm talking about flexible response, in other words, according to the actual situation, you and Adjutant Gu should change at any time, sometimes side by side, sometimes back and forth." Tang Anshu simply drew a schematic diagram on the cave wall, "As the head of the snake, that is, the front of the formation, he controls the movement of the entire formation, if he is just alone, between one black and one dark, I am afraid that his vision will not be able to recover in time, on the contrary, it will greatly slow down the speed of the team." ”
When Tang Hualong heard this, he immediately said: "Staff officer, Liu Guzhi and I have better night vision, let's take the lead!" ”
"Absolutely not! It's because you both have good eyesight, so you both have to stand at the front and the middle and back of the formation, here and here. Tang Anshu pointed to two positions on the cave wall, and then looked at Tang Hualong and said, "I'm not a staff officer, don't call me that." ”
Benzoin was still confused, looking at Gu Feng suspiciously.
Gu Feng explained: "What An Shu means is that between light and dark, the two of us have to open and close our eyes alternately, so as to avoid darkness after ten seconds, and suddenly it is dark in front of us, and then people will subconsciously stop, and the team will also stagnate." ”
Benzoin suddenly realized, looked at Tang Anshu and said, "Well, smart." ”
Tang Anshu just smiled politely, and pointed to the painting on the cave wall: "The head of the snake is Gu Feng and Ah Xiang, the snake neck Zhang Bolie, Liu Guzhi follows, my intention in this arrangement is that Zhang Bolie is strong, even if he is injured, he will not fall down immediately, Liu Guzhi, who has strong night vision, is behind him, and can help to find out the situation when it is dark in front of the formation." ”
Zhang Bolie and Liu Guzhi immediately said: "Yes! ”
"Then there are Li Zhaonian and Wang Qingyun." Tang Anshu looked at the two people in the back, "In the past ten days, I have found that the two of you are flexible and light, so I arranged you in the middle of the formation, and the two of you have to take care of the front and back, Li Zhaonian has to pay attention to what Liu Guzhi said at any time, Wang Qingyun must pay attention to what Tang Hualong is pointing at the rear, so, Tang Hualong is behind Wang Qingyun, understand?" ”
Zhang Bolie, Liu Guzhi, Li Zhaonian, Wang Qingyun and Tang Hualong said in unison: "Yes! ”
Gu Feng asked again: "What about you?" ”
Tang Anshu pulled out his own and checked: "I'm broken." ”
Gu Feng frowned: "How can it be done?" If you're surprised, we won't be able to move forward even if we break out of this cave. ”
Tang Anshu shook his head: "The essence of the serpentine array lies in its potential energy surrounding, its shape can be around, it can bend and stretch, its head is like a tiger's teeth, its tail is like a sharp spear, its head and tail are connected, and it can defend and attack." I will explain the formation briefly and you will understand, plus you have been here before, so you have to be the head of the snake, I understand the formation, but I am not familiar with the terrain, so I must break it off, no need to argue anymore. ”
At this time, Benzoin glanced at Tang Anshu, just nodded silently, but what he thought was the terrible thing about Tang Anshu, in the past ten days, it seemed that Tang Anshu was always careless, but in fact, he kept the advantages and disadvantages of everyone in the team in mind, if in this environment, if Tang Anshu had two hearts, I am afraid they would not be this person's opponents.
Gu Feng saw Benzoin in a daze, and hurriedly asked, "Ah Xiang, do you have anything to say?" ”
Benzoin came back to her senses: "No, it's okay, what else do you need to pay attention to besides these?" ”
Tang Anshu opened the thousand machine bags and took out the torches: "Each person holds two torches, two more are inserted into their waists, and the weapons are carried in a convenient position." ”
Zhang Bolie and the others looked at each other, and Tang Hualong asked tentatively: "Don't you prepare weapons?" ”
Tang Anshu said coldly: "You have also seen it, everywhere, if those fish blades are shot in groups like arrows, will the weapons in our hands be useful?" Besides, Adjutant Gu also said that they are afraid of light and fire, so torches are our best weapons. ”
Gu Feng lifted the torch and carried a thousand bags on his back: "Prepare it." ”
While everyone lit the torches, Tang Anshu pointed to the rifle on Li Zhaonian and said, "Before leaving, didn't you say that you brought tracer bullets bought from the British?" How many rounds are there? ”
Li Zhaonian immediately replied: "Thirty tracer bullets." ”
Tang Anshu raised his eyes and looked at the ramp and said: "Climb up, aim at the front of the hole, shoot after it is dark, see how far the trajectory of the bullet flies before it disappears, and at the same time listen to the sound of whether the bullet hits the cave wall, so that you can roughly judge the distance from here to the end." ”
After Gu Feng nodded, Li Zhaonian unloaded his rifle, carefully climbed up the slope, loaded a tracer bullet, slowly pulled the bolt, aimed ahead, and waited for the darkness to fall after ten seconds.
Tang Anshu raised his hand and motioned for everyone to arrange according to what he said before, and whispered: "After the gunshot, when it lights up again, we will rush up according to the formation, and then quickly slide down to the bottom." ”
While everyone nodded, the cave below was dark, and Li Zhaonian also pulled the trigger, and the tracer bullet rushed forward with a fiery red trajectory.
