Chapter 126. accidentally
The plan to find the cave was quickly set, and the group of Marines did not waste any more time. After a brief rest for half an hour, they all returned to their peak state after lunch, and the energetic soldiers were ready, holding their rifles or shotguns, all lined up in two rows, waiting for Liszt's next order.
This was a more serious task, Liszt took out the map of the surrounding terrain that Karl had drawn with a pencil, compared the surrounding directions, nodded slowly, inserted the notebook back into the breast pocket of his jacket, lifted his reinforced version of Winchester, which had been carefully wrapped in rags, and walked towards the mountains to the east first.
The two rows of marines behind him also immediately followed, the weapons in their hands were lifted one after another, and the safety was fully opened. They were all out and about, and although the makeshift camp still had their belongings, there was no need to carry them, they just had to remember the way, and they could come back and carry them at any time. And if they find a suitable cave to relocate, Liszt, who has the system, doesn't care about the living materials worth less than a thousand points.
"According to the map, this mountain range is extremely large, it should be an extension of the main vein of the Rocky Mountains, and our current location should be the center of the four cities."
Looking at the map in his hand, Karl's mind was also calculating the specific location of the surroundings, as well as the area where the lakes and rivers are located, and the possible karst caves and underground rivers. But he looked at the surrounding terrain and thought in his heart, and took out another military map. Look at the specific terrain above that almost envelops the whole of North America. The eyes are in the direction where they are. But he couldn't help but squint slowly: "In the northwest is Prince Rupert Port, in the northeast is Tellus City, in the east is Kittimat City, and in the south it should be Hartley Bay City and Pitt Island." ”
"We're surrounded?"
A member of the Marine Corps behind him was slightly stunned, and he also leaned over to glance at the map in Carl's hand, but the slightly furrowed eyebrows were stretched out. Slowly shrugging his shoulders, he stepped on the soft soil under his feet, and said with a smile and indifferently: "Maybe don't worry about anything, right?" This complex environment. Even if the Canadians found out about us, would they still be able to wipe us out like the plains? ”
"That's right, there's nothing to worry about."
Glancing at the broader military map in Karl's hand, Liszt also smiled and nodded. The Rocky Mountains stretch across North America, and the reputation of being the backbone of North America is not announced by geologists, but recognized throughout the Americas. The undulating mountainous environment is comparable to Afghanistan, and the lush primeval forests are also like Vietnam in the previous life, even if the Soviet Union's group troops arrive, as long as they are well prepared, Liszt is hidden in them. Even if you want to turn this Rocky Mountain into an imperial graveyard, it's not impossible!
The complex environment symbolizes the brutality of the battlefield. And the three major battlefields recognized in the world, jungles, mountains, and cities, are fighting for life. The superiority in weapons has been reduced to a minimum, and even the superiority in strength has been weakened to the point where it can be ignored, and even if the air superiority is mastered, it can be weakened to the minimum with adequate preparation.
Especially the Rocky Mountains, which combine complex mountain landscapes, flourishing primeval forests, and almost hellish cruel terrain, except for filling them with human lives, and constructing supply points with lives and bones, otherwise they will definitely be crushed and swallowed by the armed forces hidden inside. The heavy armored forces that the Soviet Union was proud of could not appear in this forest, and for Liszt, who did not need logistics and recruitment, this was the best battlefield for him.
"I will make this our home, a cemetery for any enemy."
Patting Karl on the shoulder, Liszt's lips were smiling slightly, and at the same time he turned his head to look at the soldiers who were following closely behind him, and a wave of confidence appeared in his chest. These armed recruits can grow into stronger veterans after a few battles, and even when they understand life and death, it is not impossible to become that elite.
Taking a deep breath and feeling the cool air of the mountain forest, Liszt waved his hand to the soldiers behind him, and at the same time looked at the mountain forest more than ten meters above his head, where a small black hole was appearing. Liszt said with a smile on his face: "Look, our luck is not bad, is it? ”
Right in front of them, on a mountain mausoleum more than ten meters away, the black hole entrance was inconspicuous. If you don't look closely, you might be confused by the dense bushes that grow outside, but Liszt's eyes narrowed slightly, and a faint stream of green data flashed, and he could clearly see the deep cavern that spread inward in the black hole. This is undoubtedly a cave in the middle of the Rocky Mountains.
Karl shrugged his shoulders, straddled the M4A1 assault rifle in his hand, pulled out the sharp sapper shovel behind his backhand, and strode towards the hole. The dense bushes were easily cut off by the wielding sapper shovel, and Karl quickly cleared a path, but looking at the entrance of the cave that was close at hand, he couldn't help but squint slightly, turned his head to Liszt and said, "This seems to be a bat cave, which has been occupied first." ”
"The Bat Cave?"
Raising his eyebrows slightly, Liszt gestured to the soldiers behind him, and they quickly dispersed around the entrance of the cave to stand on guard. And he walked over with his Winchester, though he had not yet entered the mouth of the cavern, and a faint noise had already been heard. Obviously, bats have been used as their most basic base camp, and if you follow the distribution of the biota in the Rocky Mountains, just listening to the screams and wings that are quite obvious in the daytime, there are probably thousands of bats hiding here in this cave.
There are still many caves in the Rocky Mountains, and if you look carefully near the rivers, streams, or lakes, you will find a few cave openings that are exposed. However, these caves have long been a paradise for wild animals. The most common are bats that prefer cold and darkness, and have become their nests after hundreds or even thousands of years of breeding.
"Do you need to go in and have a look?"
The tactical flashlight in his hand had been turned on, and Carl looked inside with his sapper shovel. It seemed that the strong light had dispelled the coldness inside, but the noise was getting louder and louder, and the harsh sound of bats chirping had already appeared in my ears. Although the bats were not deadly, Karl subconsciously took half a step back, and said to Liszt helplessly: "These little guys don't seem to like us. ”
"If these little guys have assault rifles, maybe we'll be guests."
Liszt smiled, a swarm of bats was really not an obstacle for him. Reaching out and taking out his M1911 semi-automatic pistol in the holster, he just let go and threw it to Carl, shrugged his shoulders and pointed to the hole with his chin, raised his eyebrows and said: "But these little guys obviously don't have rifles, and we are not guests." ”
Shrugging slightly, Karl reached out to catch the M1911 semi-automatic pistol, sighed a little helplessly, and did not continue to say anything. Directly to the side of the cave entrance, looking at the bat screaming that was getting more and more noisy, the trigger had been directly pulled, and with the fire and light that appeared at the entrance of the cave, the crisp gunfire had echoed inside the cave. Karl instantly hid on the side of the hole, covered his head and shouted, "They're out!" ”
The sound of some kind of wings flapping had also become faintly dense. Before Liszt could retreat towards the mouth of the cave next to him, the dense fluttering of wings rushed out with countless noisy screams. The bats were like dark clouds, black and pressed with the piercing screams rushing out of the hole, and even though it was still daytime, they still did not hesitate to merge into a swarm of bats and flew out aimlessly into the distance.
Thick smoke and loud noises are the best way to disperse the bats, and wake the little ones from their sleep, leaving them feeling absolutely terrified. And these little ones without eyes can emit ultrasound waves from their mouths, and they can find suitable nests even during the day, and as long as the cold and darkness re-envelop them, the group can still flourish.
"Oh, our luck, it seems to be now... A bit bad? ”
But Liszt slowly raised his head, and there was already some kind of helicopter humming sound in his ears. At the edge of his gaze, a former Soviet Mi-24 Hind transport helicopter was hovering in the sky, appearing in the air at a distance of seven or eight hundred meters. Slowly licking his lips, Liszt's eyes flashed with a slight flow of data, but he also saw that the machine gun turret under the nose had been slowly aimed at them at the hole below, but he did not fire directly, as if he was identifying friend and foe.
With a wry smile on his lips, Liszt spat at the side, but instead of reacting violently, he reached out and waved at the helicopter, as if he were quite familiar. The surrounding marines didn't care about turning around, but they seemed to be unanimous and suddenly rushed into the cave quickly!
PS: The previous ones look a bit messy, sorry I'm changing the outline. Cut some unnecessary plots, refine the foreshadowing, and prepare for a quick transition to nuclear war. Thank you for your recent monthly passes and tips, I am also very touched by Weiju, thank you for your support, I will continue to work hard! And a book friend said that Washington is on the East Coast, and that's right. But I'm talking about Washington State on the West Coast, not Washington City. (To be continued.) )
