Chapter 71: The Trek
"We've been out of the way for at least half an hour now."
In the dense forest, Chen Shen opened his mouth and said to the other four.
"According to intelligence, the Lion Corps has rich experience in jungle operations, but they are not well prepared and will definitely need to wait for a certain amount of time for the equipment to arrive, which is our advantage."
"On the other side of Garoja, there are many of them and their origins are complicated, there may be a few masters like Lin He, but it is impossible for them to fight alone."
"Moreover, this battle of the hussar camp should also cast a shadow on them, and it is impossible for them to catch up with them with their heads bored."
"All in all, at least for a short time, we're safe."
"As long as you can maintain your speed and not be overtaken, the rest of the road should not be too dangerous."
Hearing his words, several people finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Since Mengka left the city, the nerves of this team have basically been in an extremely tense state.
As we all know, sports warfare is hard to fight.
And in less than an hour, at a distance of more than 40 kilometers, they actually fought 4 skirmishes in succession!
And these 4 battles are basically concentrated in the first 20 kilometers, such a density, such intensity, in the ranks of the Kokang Allied Army, it is almost unimaginable?
Joke, at that time, who didn't hesitate for a day or two, two or three days, going around dozens or hundreds of kilometers, barely firing a few shots and firing a few shots?
Although the situation is tense, there are not many times when people die on a large scale.
And now?
Thirty or forty people were killed in an hour, and the battle damage of his own side was directly 0.
Immortals fighting are no more than that.
If in the previous battles, the other three people of the Dongfeng Corps still saw Chen Shen's ability to plan strategically and carefully, then after today's battle, they can be regarded as really seeing Chen Shen's battlefield talent clearly.
The reaction was so fast that he overturned a heavily defended checkpoint in tens of seconds, and he was so clever that he could immediately decide to shell according to the jackal's simple sentence of "the enemy is gathering on the western side", and he was so delicate that he didn't forget to use his machine gun to put it in the trees to create a roadblock while driving away......
Bao Qi still remembers that when he just ran out of Kokang, he felt that Chen Shen was enough to be a company commander.
At that time, I didn't know anything, and I thought that if I had good marksmanship, I could become an official if I fought a fierce battle, but now it seems quite ridiculous.
----, just because your idea is ridiculous doesn't mean you're wrong.
With the quality that Chen Shen is showing now, he may still be wronged as a company commander......
The other two had similar thoughts, and continued to walk for a while with similar thoughts, Shi Dakai asked in a low voice:
"Number 4, can we talk?"
Chen Shen brushed aside the vines in front of him and replied:
"It's okay to speak, just be quiet."
In fact, the range of sound wave transmission in the jungle is limited, and now that you are far away from your pursuers, there is no need to ask them to be completely silent.
Otherwise, the nearly four-day trek would have driven them crazy.
With Chen Shen's permission, the first person to speak was not Shi Dakai, but Bao Qi.
"No. 4, we should have directly abolished the hussar camp in this battle, right? Is there a shortage of pursuers? ”
"It should be, but there are also a lot of people in the Lion Corps and Garoja, and there are more than a hundred people in Garoja alone, which is not easy to deal with."
Chen Shen didn't stop, and immediately reminded after answering:
"Beware of the beast."
The lessons learned from Lin He, or the loopholes he had filled, were immediately applied to him, and the four of them carefully bypassed a beast path that was obviously walked out by a small beast such as a field mouse, and continued to move in the direction indicated by the GPS.
"The quality of the people in Garoja is not high, and many of them are ordinary villagers carrying hoes, similar to when we were in Dakang."
"I think as long as we don't get surrounded and volley in sections, we can even grind them to death."
Bao Qi's words were a bit exaggerated, but they didn't attract Shi Dakai's rebuttal.
Instead, he echoed in approval:
"I also think that we have advantages in vision, marksmanship, equipment, and traps, and if the Lion Corps can't chase them closely, we can even wait for Garoja and directly deal with them."
"Otherwise, if the Lion Corps really divides its troops from Jingdong to Mengbin as we have planned in the battle plan, and then intercepts us at both ends, once we fall into the encirclement, we will be quite passive."
"Whether they divide the army or not, we are all passive."
Chen Shen waved his hand and explained:
"We still have to realize that the Lion Corps is a corps that has chased Kunsha in the jungle, and it is not impossible for them to catch up with us in the jungle."
"It's too dangerous to slow down and get tangled up with Garoja, so don't risk it unless they really can't chase us anymore."
"Understood."
The three of them replied in unison without further words.
For the next 6 hours, the group walked forward, passing through four traps and using two supply points.
The jungle was always silent, as Chen Shen expected, once he entered the jungle, it was really not so easy to catch.
After all, this is not a narrow road with obvious goals, and even if the enemy knows that the Dongfeng Corps is going to Mengbin, he does not know which direction his side is going to take, and where he will stop and rest.
At around 6 o'clock in the morning, several people arrived at the first rest camp in the plan, seeing that Ji Ya's physical fitness had almost reached the limit, and the state of the four people, including himself, had begun to decline seriously, Chen Shen decisively chose to rest.
Of course, the time is only one hour.
At this time, the sky had begun to light up, and the smokeless stove that had been dug and hidden during the previous route reconnaissance was activated, and with the help of the warmth of the flames, several people took turns to bake the clothes that had been wet with dew, while Chen Shen took out the medical kit that had been hidden before.
Like Bao Qi who trained for the first time, Ji Ya also had hypothermia symptoms, but Chen Shen was already very experienced in dealing with it, he quickly boiled hot water, and handed it to Ji Ya who had untied the flail together with high-salt and high-sugar effervescent tablets that replenished electrolytes.
"Thank you....."
Jiya's voice trembled slightly, and her gaze casually swept over the open medical bag, which contained medicine, bandages, and tourniquet ties, and even a few scalpels and forceps.
"You're welcome."
"Have a drink first, then another before you go, and keep your temperature as high as possible."
"I know...... But I don't think I'm running out of stamina, when can we rest? ”
"We have to continue walking for six hours, and by then the pursuers' physical strength should be at their limit, and we can have five to six hours of rest."
Chen Shen broke open a piece of chocolate and handed it to Ji Ya, and continued:
"Don't worry, the further back we go, the more time we'll have to rest, and you'll be able to get through it."
Jiya nodded slightly.
Can you make it?
Why did he ...... So sure?
In fact, after really experiencing the jungle crossing, even she herself has gradually lost confidence.....
"What if ---- I mean, I can't make it out?"
She asked.
"I have my way."
Chen Shen's expression was calm.
"Don't worry, you will definitely reach Meng Bin alive."
