Chapter 040: Surround the Gray Army

Early in the morning, in the jungle.

The combination of these two words always conjures up images of nature, birds, flowers, and the morning sun. But in reality,

"Damn damp weather, damn bush mosquitoes, damn ...... Untouchables!" the middle-aged man muttered, rubbing his bloodshot eyes.

Immediately looking up, the withered soldiers lying around everywhere, the armor and weapons scattered all over the ground, and even the smoke rising from the stove seemed a little listless......

"Well, when do you think this day will end?" chatted a few soldiers leaning against the trees.

"Ask us for birds, ask the chiefs who don't know what to think in their heads. A soldier said angrily.

"Hey, I'm just asking, don't shoot at me if you have fire. "The soldier seemed innocent.

"What's wrong with me?"

"You ...... man"

"Alright, alright. What's so noisy. An older soldier raised his voice slightly, glanced at the two of them, and then said, "I guess I can't go back until I have wiped out that group of gray soldiers." ”

We chased for three days, and we didn't even see a single hair. ”

"Yes. Didn't you say earlier that the gray soldiers didn't have anything to eat, and they could run so far without food?"

", can you kid not even mention eating!"

"Uh......"

There was a slight silence, and then a soldier leaned over a little, and said mysteriously: "Let me tell you the news, I have a friend who is in logistics." He said that our food was halved because it had been burned in that fire. ”

"What!"

"Really, didn't you say that the supply would be restored in two days?"

"Good morning, sir!"

......

Belch...... The chatting soldiers turned their heads stiffly, and saw the middle-aged man standing behind them expressionlessly. On the other side, an officer bowed down to greet him.

"All of them are idle. Rumors are created here. ”

The soldiers got up in a panic and stood straight. The atmosphere did not dare to come out.

"Since you're so idle, then you can transfer to the scout team!"

Leaving these words, the middle-aged man shook his hand away.

Scouts, scouts who had suffered most of the casualties in one night, and several of the soldiers turned pale.

......

"How's it going?" said the middle-aged commander after continuing to walk for a while.

The officer who greeted him just now had been following behind, and when he heard this, he immediately said, "They are still running, but they didn't have any traces of cooking last night." ”

"Hmm. The middle-aged commander didn't have any extra expressions, as if he had long expected this answer.

"Sir. It's been three days and we're ......."

"Chase!" the middle-aged man said categorically.

"But we only have three days left with our food supply halved, and so on. We may not be able to get out of the jungle ......."

"Then halve the supply again!"

"This ......" The officer hesitated when he heard this, but after all, he did not say that there was a possible mutiny.

The middle-aged commander looked into the distance: "That group of untouchables can run for three days without food, can't we?"

"Uh......" the officer was silent. He knew exactly what the chief was thinking right now. The Grey Army was not far in front of them, and they had already run out of food, so they might have to wait another day. Even wait for half a day, and the other party will collapse...... But. Didn't they have this kind of thought when they entered the jungle, and now it's been three days......

"Sir, sir......"

Suddenly, a soldier dressed as a scout rushed over from behind.

The middle-aged commander frowned slightly, could it be that the scout team was cleaned up again?

The scout approached and saluted, "The Greys are encamped in front, and they are building fortifications. ”

...... The middle-aged commander and the officer looked at each other, and for a moment they couldn't believe their ears.

"You...... Say it again!"

"Ugh. The Grey Army stopped, and they ......"

"Good!" the middle-aged commander interrupted the soldier's words with a loud yell. Quickly took two steps left and right, "Haha, can you finally not hold on......? Command me, and the team immediately assembles and advances at high speed. ”

"Sir, it's ...... breakfast."

"The Gray Army is our most haode breakfast!"

............

At the sound of the order, the army immediately set off.

The middle-aged commander rode on his horse, and first sent a scout team to listen to the news. Then the officers were sent to urge the soldiers to advance faster. Who knows if these untouchables will suddenly run away again......

Twenty miles, ten miles, five miles, three miles......

The hundreds of people of the Gray Army finally appeared in the sight of the pursuers again.

The environment of the jungle is naturally full of trees, but in the place where the Gray Clothes are stationed, trees, grass, shrubs, etc. are all cut down, forming a huge clearing.

As for the trees that were cut down, they were piled up on all sides to form cover.

When the pursuers arrived, they did not attack immediately. Instead, the two wings advanced first, intending to encircle the camp.

The Grey Army was indifferent to this, and continued to pile up bunkers, looking like they were fighting to the death.

Seeing that the soldiers completely surrounded the fortifications of the Gray Army, the middle-aged commander finally relieved himself. Accompanied by a group of officers, they came to the front of the line.

"Hey, these untouchables are idiots, what do you think, they actually built the fortifications in the depression...... Oh, they're going to fight to the death now, so there's no way back. The middle-aged commander thought that he had thought of the intention of the Gray Army's move, so his heart was more stable. It seems that this group of gray-clothed soldiers knows that there is no hope of escape, so they want to fight again......

"This fortification is too big...... isn't it?" said an officer next to him in surprise after observing.

The Grey Men numbered only a little over 300 men, but they could build fortifications that could almost double the number of them. Of course, the bigger the camp, the better, you know that the larger the area, the greater the depth of the defense. If you don't have the corresponding number of people, it can easily be breached.

"A bunch of Diao people, what do they know about military affairs! I guess they think they are enclosing their own backyard, so naturally the bigger the better. The officer scoffed.

"Haha, too!"

In the midst of talking and laughing, everyone commented on the fortifications of the Gray Army. The content is naturally all kinds of ridicule and ridicule.

It is no wonder that they are so relaxed and confident, everyone is engaged in military affairs, they are all insiders, and they can naturally see that this fortification is not vulnerable at all, ten minutes, fifteen minutes, probably that......

The middle-aged commander was also full of ambition, and glanced at the officers: "The generals listen to the order......

"Borrowed, borrowed...... Boiling water, hot...... Borrowed, borrowed......"

Belch......

The officers turned their heads and saw a soldier in plate armor shouting incessantly, trotting in from outside the encirclement.

The place of battle is not allowed to break in, so many squad leaders scolded. But the soldier turned a deaf ear and just kept walking inside.

Finally, someone couldn't help it and wanted to take him down. But the soldier's body is really slippery, and he turns left and right in the ranks, like a loach, which makes people unable to win.

The scene of the commotion really looked a little funny, and the soldiers around him were a little dumbfounded for a while.

The middle-aged commander's face was pale, and the officers next to him looked at each other, where did this come out of the living treasure?

The fortifications of the Grey Army were quite large, so the encirclement of 2,000 men was not too dense. In addition, everyone was stunned, and after a while, they were actually passed by this soldier. And then...... Well, and then he rushed towards the fortifications......

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the soldier climbed the wooden fortifications with agility, as if climbing the mountain wall. Zuihou jumped lightly and flipped in. The gray army was immediately cheering.

It's cold on the pursuer's side, what's going on......

Call...... The middle-aged commander took a deep breath and tried to suppress the anger in his heart: "The generals will listen to the order...... Huh?"

This time, no one came to interrupt him, it was the middle-aged commander himself who suddenly stared at him in a daze. In fact, it was not only him, but all the officers and all the soldiers were dumbfounded......

Then a wisp of black smoke suddenly rose from the fortification, followed by another wisp...... Soon, the smoke seemed to have a scale, billowing into the sky. At this time, there was also a faint fire on the wooden bunker......

This...... Is it a mass suicide?(To be continued.) )

PS: I bowed down and thanked the book friend "Cold Dust 1" for the reward. Well, there are also two monthly passes for book friends who are "so helpless to wait". Tanuki thank you~!
