Chapter 18: Ambush
It took several hours for the group of four to finally clean up the small building to the point where it was barely inhabitable, and lying on the bed that still smelled musty, Chen Shen finally felt a sense of peace of mind.
The mercenary group isn't quite on track yet, but at least it's off to a good start.
The first battle was fought beautifully, and it was completely distinctive, and then the wood ghost should really pay attention to it, and if there is a small order, it will also consider directly subcontracting to the foursome---- or the Dongfeng Corps.
This is definitely a day worth celebrating, Chen Shen bought vegetables out of his own pocket and made an authentic veteran's family banquet, which made the three of them teary-eyed.
"It's delicious!"
Bao Qi showed off three bowls of rice in a row, and he couldn't stand steadily, so he finally put down his chopsticks.
"That's good?"
Chen Shen was surprised.
You must know that although he is the shareholder of the veteran barbecue, the dishes he makes have always been the most complained about......
"It's really delicious, much better than what my family makes."
Shi Dakai rarely agreed with Bao Qi's opinion, and Li Bang proved his position with practical actions---- he went down to five bowls of rice, and the pot was about to be scraped.
Chen Shen couldn't help but support his forehead.
"Looks like you've never eaten any good pork...... It's really hard for you. ”
In fact, seriously speaking, in northern Myanmar, especially in the Kokang area, the food is similar to that of southwest China, but the main places are too poor, and the living standards of ordinary people are still at the level of about the 90s in China.
It's no wonder that they can eat a shredded chicken with the temperament of delicacies from the mountains and seas......
Before Chen Shen could sigh, Bao Qi spoke again.
"It would be nice if I could bring my parents over in the future, they probably haven't eaten much of this dish......
"Don't talk about it."
Before he finished speaking, Li Bang directly interrupted him.
"Your father was a platoon commander on the National Democratic Front, so it's impossible that he hasn't eaten anything yet, and my family has never eaten such a good thing in his life...... I don't know what happened to them now. ”
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere immediately became a little heavy.
Yes, the three of them have run out, but the family is still resolute.
At this point in time in 2009, Kokang's telephone network was not yet fully popularized and could not be contacted, and the situation there was completely a black box for the three of them.
It's impossible to say not to worry, but what can they do?
Going back recklessly can only be a mortal end.
Chen Shen sighed, he wanted to open his mouth to persuade him, but he couldn't persuade him.
To his surprise, at this time, it was Shi Dakai who stood up.
"Don't say this kind of thing, I have also figured it out during this time, no matter if we can't get out, the situation of the family is actually the same."
"What Chen Shen said before was not right, even if we stayed there, it was not to exchange our lives for the lives of our families."
"As long as we die, our family will also die."
"The style of doing things in vain...... You may not know it, but I know it very well. ”
Hearing this, Chen Shen's heart sank.
Indeed, it is impossible for Bai Suocheng to leave any threat to himself.
Counting on him to kill one and spare one family, it is better to expect Myanmar to agree to Kokang independence......
He nodded subconsciously, and the other two also came back to their senses.
Bao Qi asked Shi Dakai in a somewhat mocking tone:
"Company Commander Shi, have you figured it out?"
Shi Dakai smiled bitterly and shook his head.
"Don't call me a company commander, I'm a fart company commander."
"I'm kind of enlightened, I was originally a big soldier, and the firing line promoted me to be a company commander to manage dozens of people, and I should have known what it meant at that time."
"I'm sorry brothers, if it weren't for Chen Shen, even a few of us wouldn't have survived...... Chen Shen, I'm older than you, I can't call you brother like them, but today I'll call you. ”
"Brother Chen! Thank you! ”
"Don't talk about this!"
Chen Shen hurriedly waved his hand and replied:
"The past is gone, let's work hard in the future, and wait for the east wind to rise...... It's time for you to go home! ”
"That's right! Our Dongfeng Corps will definitely be able to stand up! ”
Bao Qi raised the Coke in his hand, and the others also raised their glasses, and under the moonlight, the wind gradually rose.
.......
Early the next morning, Chen Shen's biological clock woke him up on time.
According to the arrangement, there are a total of two things to do today.
The first thing is to go to Menglang Temple to collect commissions.
Wan and Nai's reward is the monks of Menglang Temple on behalf of the residents, the task is over, but the wood ghost is not a middleman, there is no obligation to collect, can only run by himself.
And the other thing is to go and take back the two "hell cannons".
According to Bao Qi, the two guns already showed signs of deformation after two rounds of firing, but after all, it was not yet time to be scrapped, and they could be used twice more if they were brought back, and they could not be wasted.
Chen Shen took the money to renew the lease of the pickup truck for three days---- he originally planned to buy it directly, but when he asked the price, he actually sold this thing for 120,000 RMB.
I can't afford to buy a little, at least I'll have to wait for the next mission.
Now...... Let's rent it first.
The car was packed up, and Chen Shen asked all the staff to be equipped, with ammunition belts and bulletproof inserts, which was to let others adapt to the rhythm of equipment and combat, and secondly, to exercise their physical strength.
More than 30 pounds of equipment on the body is equivalent to a big sandbag, after a month or two of practice, physical strength can have a large span of improvement.
After everything was ready, it was no problem to get in the car and set off, the air conditioner of this Hylux had already broken down, and the four of them were soaked with sweat in less than half an hour, and Chen Shen also took the opportunity to observe the reactions of the others.
Shi Dakai is as steady as ever---- he may really have a talent for being a sniper.
Bao Qi is obviously irritable, but he can also suppress his emotions, but it is possible that after a long period of suppression, it will bring a crazy backlash.
As for the Li Gang?
He didn't seem to take it seriously at all, and the hard work hadn't touched his threshold at all.
OK.
Chen Shen nodded secretly.
The quality of the squad is uneven, and each person has their own characteristics, but fortunately, the members of the squad have complemented and merged with each other in a strange way, and they have actually formed a usable combat unit.
In this case, there is no need to consider the issue of substitutions, just strengthen training.
If you train them to the death, you will come according to the standards of the Devil Moon of your previous life!
I don't believe it, there are still people in this world who can't be trained?
An evil smile appeared on Chen Shen's face, and Bao Qi glanced at it inadvertently, shivering inexplicably.
He quickly turned his head and clenched his PKMS.
He probably didn't know that the most comfortable days he had lived were coming to an end soon......
Half an hour later, the pickup truck drove to the Menglang Temple in the northeast of Mengka, where the monks got the news in advance and were already waiting at the temple gate.
Looking at their respectful expressions from afar, Bao Qi couldn't help but feel a little proud.
Hey, the monks in this realm used to be arrogant, but now it's our turn to stretch our feet, right?
He was about to tell a few people about the allusion to the night cruise, but at this moment, Chen Shen's face suddenly changed.
"Stop!"
"Number 1, turn the car sideways!"
"All get out of the car and spread the vigilance!"
"No. 2, set up a machine gun at the hood tire position and aim at the main entrance of the temple!"
"No. 3, occupy the commanding heights in the southwest direction!"
"The situation is not right, there must be an ambush here!"
