After nearly an hour’s rest, the fourth brigade continued to March along the dense forest to the big mountain depression.
In the afternoon, there are not many wild animals in the forest, but some poisonous insects occasionally cause some trouble to the team, but almost all the soldiers carry antidote with them, but the team has not been reduced by poisoning
It’s always sultry in the woodland at this time of day.
It’s not easy to walk in the team forest. The forest is full of dead branches and rotten leaves left over the years. When these leaves rot, they will become fertile humus soil, but some leaves fall into naturally formed deep pits. The dead yellow leaves fill these deep pits and become many natural traps.
A heavy soldier was walking in the team. He just looked up and saw a green snake crawling out of his head. The green snake wound around the horizontal branches and kept spitting out snake letters. A pair of cold eyes stared at the square team passing by the horizontal branches where it lived, and the soldier was startled by the green snake.
I was thinking about whether to warn my companions behind me when I heard them shouting "Hey, be careful …"
Before the words were finished, the heavy soldier stepped on his body and fell forward according to inertia and plunged into a deep pit filled with dead leaves.
Well, the thick dead leaves piled up on the surface of the pit didn’t have anything else. The heavy soldier was pulled out of the pit by his companions, but he was not seriously injured, but his foot was twisted …
The procession passed by a cannibal tree covered with sharp spikes. The cannibal tree waved vines and would not respond in the future. The heavily armored soldiers clung to them and dragged them to the trunk. If they didn’t have the help of their companions, they would have broken free on their own.
After entering the jungle, this kind of accident always happens frequently, which slows down the marching speed.
……
It wasn’t until it was getting dark that the fourth brigade arrived at the big mountain where the aboriginal hunters were hiding. Through the dusk and sunset glow, a bare white rock wall appeared on the west side of the valley. According to the information that Jielong had investigated before, the aboriginal hunters were hiding here.
Baron Sidney asked the fourth brigade to stop and make a sneak attack on the aboriginal hunters after nightfall.
At noon, five scouts from the big army came back one after another, and Baron Sidney called the petty officer’s meeting again.
The camp is stationed in a forest slope in a big mountain valley, which is not too far from the river valley in the mountain valley.
The dinner was much richer, too. A scout team was specially responsible for hunting and carrying back two wild boar with loose stripes from the forest. The dinner was wild pork with some wild celery and white bread. According to Surdak, every time before the war, Baron Sidney would give the soldiers a good meal, which looked good. This time was no exception.
The battle horn sounded the moment it was completely dark.
The second team followed the big army to discredit the cliff. There is only one cave that can be passed by one person. It takes about 200 meters to climb along this rock tunnel to reach the natural cave in the middle of the cliff. Two or three people should be stationed at the exit of the cave to guard the passage.
Baron Sidney left the first squadron here to guard the exit here, and then personally took the fourth brigade to climb the mountain in the dark. According to Baron’s plan, the assault team will put ropes from the top of the mountain, and the soldiers will hang them halfway up the mountain along the ropes and sneak in through the mountainside vents.
This area is full of cliffs. If you want to climb this cliff, you have to go around the back of the ravine.
The mountain road was more difficult to walk in the evening, and Baron Sidney had to give up riding and climb the mountain with the brigade on foot.
Bo Qiang and the center of the team felt uneasy for no reason.
After nightfall, there was some faint light from the cliff halfway up the mountain. It is not difficult to see that the cliff was really inhabited by people. It seems that these indigenous people were so calm that the fourth brigade did not meet the resistance of indigenous people along the way into the big mountain, which made Boqiang feel a little worried.
Chapter 2 Dark flank
In the dark, a moonkin crowed in the mountains and forests, and the heavily armored infantry regiment of the fourth brigade marched in the dense forests all day.
Although there have been two short breaks, it is difficult for soldiers dressed in metal armor to be exhausted at this late hour, and it is difficult for them to fall behind in the team.
Although there are stars all over the head, it is dark in the woodland, and the team can slowly move forward and grope their way.
If you want to climb the mountains on the west side of Dashan’s depression, you have to detour a long way.
In the forest, small animals are frightened from time to time, and occasionally they are surprised by a group of grey magpies that have returned to their nests.
Baron Sidney walked at the front of the team with a silver cane. He rode a horse all day and was naturally more energetic than his soldiers when he walked the mountain road at night. Especially so, Baron Sidney was also very embarrassed by the thorny bushes on the hillside.
He combed his hair meticulously, and his light blond hair became a little greasy and messy, with an oval leaf on his head.
A squadron leader behind Baron Sidney said gently, "Baron, why don’t you let the team rest first?"
Baron Sidney looked at the forest land in the dark mountains and shook his head slowly, saying, "Let the soldiers insist that this is no place to rest. We need to climb to the top of the mountain with one breath."
The squadron leader, with a bitter face, saw Sidney moving forward without looking back and ordered the soldiers behind him, "Let everyone follow!"
I don’t know how many rattan traps are buried in the bushes and dense forests in the dark mountains and woodlands. Soldiers will be tied up by rattan traps if they are not careful. Although this trap is not enough to kill people, even if they are rescued from trees, most of them are black and blue, resulting in a certain degree of attrition.
In the dark night, this dense forest is like an abyss, and the horrible monsters are devouring the combat effectiveness of the fourth brigade bit by bit.
……
Bo Qiang gently pushed Surdak’s eyes on the left side of a hanging tree vine.
Surdak immediately went around the vine and whispered to Garcia, the Red Sox behind him, "We have to be careful about setting a lot of traps in the woodlands of indigenous hunters."
Garcia, the Red Sox, gave the message to his companions behind him and followed Suldak’s footsteps around the taut vine.
Surdak walked behind Boqiang and complained to Boqiang, "Actually, we can find a sheltered cliff to rest and walk for a whole day, and everyone’s physical strength has dropped so badly that it is unrealistic to fight all night."
Bo Qiang groped his way forward carefully and carefully dealt with the trap in the bushes ahead.
In fact, Boqiang can perceive the trap in the forest purely by being cautious and being skeptical about everything that appears in front. Those who deliberately disguise the trap will always have a little disharmony in the surrounding environment. Boqiang relies on this to identify the trap in the jungle.
