Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Difficult Sneak of the Soldier's Path

The sky grew overcast, and heavy dark clouds rolled against the earth.

The gray wind and sand whistled and blew on the camp, and the last item of the selection and assessment gradually kicked off.

After the soldiers boarded the plane, they set off on time at eight o'clock and flew in the direction of the assessment island.

Jiang Xiao smiled and nodded to Ai Xi who was sitting next to him, Ai Xi smiled faintly and lowered his head and continued to carefully wipe the M200 sniper rifle in his hand.

"Jiang Xiao, what do you think about the last assessment?" Xue Yuan said seriously.

"Now that we're in a team, let's go into small groups! The distance from getting off the plane to infiltrating the island is a test of secret stealth, and it is a great test of physical strength and willpower! This process must not only be strictly controlled and completed within the specified time, but also require our whole group to work together! I'm sure all veterans are okay with this, right? Jiang Xiao said seriously.

"Judging from my achievements in the original unit, it is not a big problem." Xue Yuan said.

"I may not have it easy, but it's okay to grit my teeth and rush it!" Guo Xiaoli continued.

The three of them looked at Ai Xi at the same time, Ai Xi raised his head and said lightly, "Don't hold back." ”

"Well, since everyone has no problem crossing the passage and armed swimming, I also make a statement here, although I have not carried out armed swimming, but I will follow the veterans to do a good job, and I will not drag the group back!

After that, after infiltrating the island, the real assessment begins. Ending the assessment by 6 o'clock tomorrow means that the assessment of finding and completing EOD to rescue the hostages will be carried out simultaneously with the melee elimination assessment.

At the same time, it also means that you will face a double assessment before 19:00 today. My suggestion is that the first task of the group after the island is to rescue the hostages as quickly as possible, and at the same time strengthen their vigilance! Jiang Xiao analyzed seriously.

"The sooner we kick the island, the better it will be for us to carry out the assessment mission!" Xue Yuan added.

"In other words, we need to try to complete the two parts of the crossing passage and the armed swimming in the shortest time possible!" Guo Xiaoli continued.

"The two squad leaders are right! The first assessment content is completed before 19:00, and there is no meaning to continue later. Jiang Xiao said thoughtfully.

Ai Xi just listened to the discussion of several people, silently wiping the gun in his hand.

"There are so many battlefield buildings on the island, do you have any clue about the location of the hostages, Jiang Xiao?" Xue Yuan asked.

"I took a closer look at the photo and felt that there was some information in it that could give us some reference." Jiang Xiao took out the photo and said seriously, "You see, from the angle of sunlight entering the window, you can roughly judge that the building is facing north, and it is a relatively upright building facing north from the south. Based on the angle of light, you can roughly tell that this is the location of the sixth floor. In general, hostages are not placed on the top floor, which means that the building height should be more than seven floors. Based on these, we can exclude some buildings and narrow down the search.

In addition, there is a large tree with a bird's nest outside the window, and there is a wooden tower not far from the big tree with the number 13 written on it, these two iconic landmarks can serve as an important reference clue for us to find the target building. Jiang Xiao analyzed seriously.

"Boy, you can be observant! Well analyzed! With these clues, it's even easier to find! Xue Yuan exclaimed.

"Awesome, Team Leader Jiang! I can't even find anything to add analytically, haha! Guo Xiaoli said with a smile.

"The two squad leaders are exaggerating, I just said what everyone can see! Take a closer look at the faces of the two hostages. Jiang Xiao pointed to the face of the hostage in the photo and said.

"What's wrong with the face?" Guo Xiaoli wondered.

"Squad leader Aixi, what do you think?" Jiang Xiao suddenly turned his head to ask Ai Xi, who was listening quietly.

Ai Xi glanced at the photo and said lightly: "The photo was taken by backlight, but the hostage's facial contours are clear, the luminosity is uniform and stable, and it is obviously not a mobile phone flash, nor is it a fire, indicating that there is sufficient light source in the room." ”

"Then they shouldn't be obvious enough to turn on the lights in the building!" Guo Xiaoli said.

"It's not very likely that the lights will be turned on! However, if there is a power bank, it is very likely to be equipped with anti-eavesdropping communication equipment. As long as they use communication equipment, they can use the locator to locate the coordinates of the target building. Jiang Xiao said seriously.

"Isn't that for nothing, we don't have that thing!" Guo Xiaoli said helplessly.

"Who said no!" Ai Xi suddenly patted the backpack and said with a light smile.

"Cow! is worthy of being the legendary female soldier king of the Nine-Tails! Guo Xiaoli gave a thumbs up and nodded in praise.

Jiang Xiao and Xue Yuan looked at each other and smiled faintly, a bright streamer flashed in their eyes.

After nearly an hour's flight, the plane arrived at the designated secret location at about nine o'clock. The crowd quickly jumped from the plane about five meters above the ground to the ground.

After the 44 soldiers who participated in the final assessment assembled on the ground, the plane turned around and headed back.

Wu Long led the team to the entrance of the passage to the sea.

"Comrades, time is tight, the task is heavy! Without further ado, please quickly cross the passage within 20 minutes according to the combat deployment plan, reach the beach, and within 7 hours, swim to the island with arms, that is, sneak into the island before 16:20! Let's get started! Wu Long looked down at the time and quickly ordered.

Jiang Xiao and the others quickly rushed to the front, and the moment they came to the entrance of the passage, several people stopped instantly.

The suffocating stench in the passage rushed to the face, and everyone covered their mouths and noses. Some couldn't help but throw up.

"I'll go, it's worse than I thought! It's not sour, it's rotten! Guo Xiaoli spat a few times and bent over to complain.

"What are you all doing! I can't even stand this, and what snow wolf is in! It's all back to the original troops! Wu Long saw that everyone was holding their mouths and noses and did not move at the entrance of the passage, and reprimanded angrily.

"No matter! Let's go! Xue Yuan shouted, covering his mouth and nose with one hand, and jumped into the passage.

The feces floating in the passage from the carcasses of rotting mice, chickens, and fish instantly flooded the waist and abdomen of Xue Yuan, who was more than one meter eight meters tall.

Seeing this, Jiang Xiao glanced back at Guo Xiaoli and Ai Xi, and jumped in directly without speaking.

Ai Xi jumped in after Jiang Xiao.

Guo Xiaoli sighed, closed his eyes, covered his mouth and nose, and jumped in.

Seeing this, everyone jumped into the passage.

With a suffocating stench, the crowd struggled and painfully navigated through the dung that sometimes went over the waist and sometimes up to the chest and even the chin.

After traveling for nearly two kilometers, Jiang Xiao and the others gritted their teeth and took the lead. The passage that appeared in front of him was all submerged in the dung water, Jiang Xiao looked at a few people firmly, first took a quick breath and then took a deep breath and dived into the dung water.

Several people followed and sneaked in.

After swimming in the fecal water for a distance of more than 100 meters, several people opened their mouths and breathed hard, and at this time, they didn't care about the billowing stench of the air in the passage, because breathing was the most important thing.

After more than ten minutes of difficult walking, several people finally walked out of the passage and came to the beach.

The first thing they did when they got out of the passage was to take a big breath of fresh air outside.

After making a simple adjustment, Jiang Xiao looked down at the time, "Nine o'clock!" Keep moving! ”

After making preparations, several people dived into the sea and began a 20-kilometer armed swim to swim towards the island.

The overall sea conditions are good, there are no big winds and waves, and the swimming crossing is relatively smooth.

Jiang Xiao and the others successfully sneaked into the island at 15:56, and the time was relatively advantageous.

After kicking the island, he also obtained a supply crate, some ammunition, food, and water.

After taking the supplies, the men put the supply box in an obvious place and planted a drill mine next to it, and then left to find a relatively hidden place to replenish some food and water, and simply made adjustments.

"It's really a woman who doesn't let her eyebrows go! You're physically capable! Guo Xiaoli looked at Ai Xi, who seemed to be not tired of holding the locator next to him, and said.

"Mind your own business!" Ai Xi said lightly and walked to Jiang Xiao's side.

"How's that, do you have any location information?" Jiang Xiao saw Ai Xi asking.

"Not yet." Ai Xi said lightly.

As soon as the words fell, I heard a bang on the edge of the island, and a burst of yellow smoke rose. The sound came from the supply box where they had planted the drill mines.

Jiang Xiao and Xue Yuan looked at each other and smiled.

"I don't know which wronged heads were eliminated as soon as they got on the island, haha!" Guo Xiaoli smiled a little gloatingly.

Ai Xi glanced at Guo Xiaoli disdainfully.

"It's early 16:10, everyone has started to go to the island one after another, and we have to step up the process!" Jiang Xiao glanced at the time and said seriously.

"Okay, let's use the temporary clue information to find it all the way." Xue Yuan said.

"For the time being, we can only do this, and I look forward to the locator of the Ai Xi squad leader to locate the target location information as soon as possible." Jiang Xiao took two steps and looked up to see a small peak not far away, so he pointed to the small peak and said, "Let's go in the direction of the peak first." Reaching the summit can provide a wider view, at least more efficiently in the vicinity. ”

"Great idea! Then let's go! Xue Yuan agreed.

The few people who came to the summit did not find the target building, but saw several waves of people who had been eliminated in the nearby melee.

"Just as expected! It seems that we have to speed up the progress, otherwise if this continues, it is very likely that the fish will die and the net will be broken, and finally all the staff will be eliminated. Jiang Xiao whispered.

"There's no need to stay in this generation, the same method, let's go to another place to investigate!" Xue Yuan said.

"Yes, to the commanding heights of an area." Jiang Xiao pointed to a ten-story building a few kilometers away.
