Chapter 417: Will It Be Illegal Armed Personnel?
The Tiger Hunter team caught up with the Red Army's second assault group, although it is unclear whether the target was a commando or a combat group, or simply a large force behind the scout group!
The compressed biscuits that had just been eaten up were consumed after a while, Li Mu was in front, and the three of them almost trotted to catch up with the target.
After crossing the ridgeline of the mountain where Fang Cai was located, he then turned sideways down the mountain, drawing a diagonal downward line on the mountain. This diagonal climb up the hill is less effortless, and the descent is faster with this diagonal downward approach, and the direction is the same as the direction of the target.
The distance is getting closer, but it's not so easy to catch up with the target in a short period of time. Even if it is a plain, it will take a little effort to catch up, let alone in this primeval mountain forest where there is no road at all.
"They're on the ridgeline. Shi Lei, who was trotting, hurriedly said a word.
"Be careful!" Du Xiaofan clearly saw that Shi Lei's trotting route was a little offset, and hurriedly reminded him, and at the same time reached out and grabbed Shi Lei.
Shi Lei hurriedly stopped his steps and saw a pit in front of him, and if he stepped into it, he might be ruined. Once this kind of thing happens, it is basically equivalent to losing half of its combat effectiveness.
Shocked into a cold sweat, Shi Lei hurriedly stabilized his figure.
Li Mu stopped and turned around and admonished, "Be careful." β
"Squad leader, I'm sorry. Shi Lei said in a low voice.
"Keep going. Li Mu cut off his knife.
Shi Lei cheered up and hurriedly followed. He was a little distracted, and he didn't know what he remembered in this situation.
Soon, they heard each other's rough breathing, and their speed became faster and faster, and after getting used to running in the mountains and forests in the dark night, it was natural for the speed to increase. The Tiger Hunters were running in pursuit, their targets unconscious, still moving at their normal pace, and they were even on the ridgeline.
The ridgeline is the best route, but it is also the most exposed location.
Of course, when he was sure that there was no enemy around, even Li Mu would choose to march on the ridgeline, because not only did he have a good vision, but the speed of the march would also be very fast.
As the distance narrowed, Li Mu could see more clearly. Five pillars of light means five flashlights for five people. They can be seen carrying guns on their backs and walking very cautiously.
Li Mu basically concluded that it was another unit of the Red Army, and he immediately reported the situation to Chen Tao: "The Tiger Hunting Report has five targets, and at present it can only be roughly judged to be armed personnel, and it has not yet been ascertained whether they are Red Army personnel. β
He still reported it more cautiously, and any accident could happen, but in this place hundreds of kilometers away from the border, if there were illegal armed forces outside the border, it would be really nonsense. Because Li Mu can basically conclude that these people are another team sent by the 13th Special Operations Brigade. Perhaps their intentions were right to what Chen Tao was most worried aboutβthe encirclement of troops that had already doubled their own.
Whether it is a large-force mobile operation, an offensive and defensive battle, or a small-scale special force operation, as long as it is a battle, the one thing that both sides and the enemy will always think about is to encircle each other. And one thing that is always worried is that you are surrounded by each other.
The ultimate goal of the superb tactical command art is always to achieve the same goal -- to encircle the enemy.
Throughout the history of world wars, from world wars to village battles, the eternal tactical purpose is to encircle the enemy.
Obviously, Chen Tao was thinking, and after almost a minute, he gave Li Mu an order: "Hunting Tiger, your unit must first find out the specific situation of the target and confirm whether it belongs to the Red Army personnel. If it is confirmed, there is no need to report it, and it is up to you to decide whether to fight or withdraw. If it is an illegal armed person, it must be closely monitored and reported immediately!"
Li Mu quickly replied to the past two words: "Received!"
Glancing at the camouflage on the faces of the two comrades-in-arms, he said in a deep voice, "According to the regulations, we did not carry live ammunition, and the killing distance of empty cartridges was only five meters, that is to say, the only weapon we could use was a saber." If something unexpected happens, you should know what to do. I'll just say one thing, if it's an illegal armed person, don't show mercy! Otherwise, you will die!"
They are all people who have participated in several actual battles, so they naturally know the stakes. Maybe it's just a stunned god, and you may lose your life.
"Don't worry. Du Xiaofan nodded solemnly, "The possibility of illegal arming should not be too great, and drug dealers will not run into this deep mountain and forest." β
"In short, be vigilant. Li Mu nodded and said.
Shi Lei asked, "Squad leader, we only have sabers, so we can't fight back when we are attacked, right?"
"Just do what I tell you to do. Li Mu said.
"I see. β
After the arrangement, Li Mu took the lead and began to move towards the ridgeline, and at this time he walked up the mountain, and the consumption of his body was even greater.
How can the specific identity of the target be ascertained?
Apparently there is only one way - to get as close as possible and make out with the naked eye. Camouflage uniforms, weapons, combat boots, epaulettes, etc., everything that can be seen is a target for recognition.
Climbing across the mountainside with his hands and feet in one breath, Li Mu stopped to catch his breath and looked up at the target at the same time. The five figures walked at a constant speed along the ridgeline, which was surrounded by sparse trees, so they were not fully exposed to the background of the night sky.
At this moment, there seemed to be a gap in the night sky, and some moonlight and stars came down. This may be a sign of impending heavy rains.
Li Mu put on a low-light night vision device to observe. Du Xiaofan and Shi Lei half-knelt down on both sides of him, shooting in a kneeling posture, and guarded to both sides, and the three-person combat team cooperated smoothly, and one action could bring out a coherent action, without any instructions to make it clear.
It's a pity that even with the help of the low-light night vision device, Li Mu couldn't see the details of the target's body clearly, but one thing was confirmed - they were wearing camouflage uniforms. It's just that at this time, their weapons are all in their hands, because of the obstruction of their bodies, and at the same time there are obstacles from trees from time to time, Li Mu can't see clearly what type of weapon the target is holding.
The light emitted by the flashlight is very familiar, like a military flashlight. But this thing is difficult to rely on, because many soldiers like to buy their own civilian flashlights to use, because many civilian products are now more powerful than military ones!
It's more than a hundred meters away, and it has to be a little closer.
Putting away the low-light night vision device, Li Mu said in a deep voice, "We have to get closer." Lower your posture and control the sound. β
The three of them continued to reach upwards and forwards.
