Xiao Yong ignored the two people's eyes like a resentful woman, turned to Cheng Chong and said, "you go on, just say what you say, ignore their strange looks and ignore them."
Cheng Chong smiled at the fourth squad leader, Then he said, "it's not absolutely impossible to force an army of 80 kilometers a day and night. The best result of the old generation's strong March day and night is 120 kilometers, which is a record. Where are we worse than the old generation? Are we short of arms or legs? Are we better off now with abundant materials, but we're not as good as the old generation who can't even eat enough?"
Cheng Chong's remarks have the flavor of some political cadres. In front of such words, the fourth squad leader and the seventh squad leader were speechless, and they lowered their heads with shame.
Seeing that the fourth squad leader and the seventh squad leader were no longer weird and windy, Cheng Chong glanced at Xiao Yong and Meng Lang, Instead, he stuck to the hand-painted map and said: "Logically, we are short of time now. We can only immediately give up the original road to the South and go straight to the southwest to shorten the distance as much as possible. But from our position at the moment, there should be a steep mountain on our right. We can't spend a lot of physical energy to climb the mountain, so we have to continue to follow the road just now After traveling about 20 kilometers, immediately turn around and go straight to the southwest. However, the speed of travel must be accelerated as much as possible. At the same time, I hope there will be no accidents on the road. "
Then he looked at Xiao Yong and asked, "monitor, do you think we can go like this?"
Xiao Yong looked around at the others and saw that there was no expression on the faces of monitor 4 and monitor 7, neither an expression of approval nor a negative expression. However, as for Meng Lang, there is no need to say. He naturally agrees with Cheng Chong's proposal.
"Well, since we don't have any better way, and there is no better and closer route, we have to do as you say! Everyone quickly adjusts their equipment. Next, we'll have to speed up our journey."
Without saying anything more, the others immediately began to adjust their equipment, correct their helmets, tighten their backpack straps, and adjust the gun straps of Bayi rifles in their hands to the most comfortable state to carry as much as possible.
After helping each other sort it out, the five soldiers of the sharp knife reconnaissance company set out on the road again.
Although the next time is tight and the road is long, after such a hearty nap just now, everyone's physical strength and physical fitness have been restored to a great extent, and their mental head is better than before.
Therefore, it is natural for everyone to act much faster and faster than before.
That's what the so-called "sharpening the knife is not bad for the woodcutter".
After a long and long journey, in the evening, the party moved forward for about 15 kilometers. When everyone was about to reach the south side of the high mountain on the right, the road in front of him suddenly became very difficult to walk.
The original dense jungle has become more dense now. Countless dead branches and leaves have been piled up in the humid space for thousands of years, forming one thick humic layer after another.
This thick humic layer, under the long-term and uninterrupted action of microorganisms, makes the whole ground dark and wet, with mud everywhere, thus emitting bursts of sour and rotten smell, which makes people feel nauseous.
As soon as the soldiers in high waisted military boots stepped on it, the black and smelly mud immediately spread upward from all around, and even directly submerged the whole military boots. While the soldiers were marching, they seemed to be walking on a large area of ground sprinkled with glue. It took a lot of effort to go further.
The difficulty and speed of the five soldiers at the moment can be imagined.
After traveling for two or three kilometers in such a sour, muddy and humid area, squad leaders 4 and 7, who had been quiet for a long time, gradually began to complain again. Of course, the main reason for complaining was the difficult road and the people who proposed to take it.
"What the fuck is this road? I know that there will be a lot of rain flowing down from the mountain under the steep mountain. The ground will be wet, muddy and the road will be difficult to walk, but I still choose this road. Is this road taken by people? I guess no one has been here since ancient times! Just us foolishly like opening up wasteland Like the others, a new sidewalk was opened up here... "Intermittently, the fourth squad leader began to complain bitterly while talking about things.
Although the fourth squad leader didn't call his name, everyone could hear that his spearhead was directed at Cheng Chong, because Cheng Chong was the one who proposed to take this road.
"Yes -" the seventh squad leader naturally took over the topic and then strengthened his tone, Echoed with the same complaint: "Such a rotten road consumes four or five times as much physical energy as ordinary roads. Maybe it's more than that. If we took other roads, we might have bypassed this steep mountain long ago. It's not like now! We can't go in, we can't go back. Every step forward is like a fucking tug of war. It's estimated that we haven't reached our destination yet. How many brothers are we I'm tired to death on this rotten road. "
Cheng Chong was very angry and wronged. He was not a god man. How could he know that this road would be so difficult? He just summed up the nearest route according to the sketched map in his hand, which was not even accurate.
As for what will happen in such a dense and primitive jungle, no one can say clearly!
However, the other two are sergeants who have been soldiers longer than themselves, and both have the status of monitor. Even if Cheng Chong's heart is no longer happy, it's not convenient to refute them. Besides, it's a long way and time is tight. It's important to hurry. They both like to complain. Let them do it well! It's all when they're exhausting waste gas into nature from their anus.
But Xiao Yong, who was the leader of the team, couldn't listen. Eager to protect the calf, he stopped for a moment and turned to the fourth squad leader and the seventh squad leader, He scolded angrily: "if you two are upset and have a temper, just get angry with me. Don't fucking say that our soldiers are not good again and again. Since Jue's road is hard to go, you two should find a good way to go? If you can't find it, what's it like to talk behind your back? It's so easy to be wise afterwards?"
Xiao Yong's words immediately closed the mouths of the fourth monitor and the seventh monitor, and made them speed up their steps as if they were fighting, so they became the leader of the whole team.
As the sun disappeared in the mountains in the west, the light gradually dimmed, and night slowly fell on the earth. Darkness once again defeated light, became the master of the whole world and the mainstream color of the whole world.
The five soldiers were silent again. Everyone lowered their heads and trudged forward in the dense jungle with increasingly dim light. They measured the distance step by step with their own legs.
After several hours of hard trekking, just as everyone was about to get out of this large muddy land, bypass the steep mountain and reach the south side of the mountain, a dry and spacious road suddenly appeared in front of us.
The rotten road is finally over. Now we can finally take a better road.
Almost everyone is thinking so.
At the moment, the fourth squad leader, who rushed to the front and served as the leader of the whole team, was very happy. He choked and walked on the rotten road for several hours, thinking that he could finally take a good breath now.
I can't help it. The fourth squad leader gradually quickened his pace. Where can he care about other things?
However, just as he hurried forward and was about to rush forward, Cheng Chong, who followed him, suddenly seemed to find something unusual and shouted at him, "stop! Fourth squad leader -"
"What are you doing?" The fourth squad leader replied angrily. He almost didn't even look back. He continued to rush forward at the same speed, as if he was competing for the first place with others.
"The situation is abnormal, stop quickly -" Cheng Chong, who followed him, didn't care about any unhappiness before, and shouted anxiously at him.
But it's too late!
In the dimly lit jungle, I only heard a few crackles like setting off firecrackers, and then several invisible special lasers shot at him from all directions. The special laser receiver he carried immediately received the signal, and the signal smoke on him immediately rose.
He died in battle.
The fourth squad leader has triggered the long buried mines, and they are also several closely linked serial mines. As long as one of them is triggered, the other mines will detonate collectively in a very short time. It can be seen that the bird brigade set up such a series of mines to deal with a team rather than an ordinary individual.
But at the moment, the fourth squad leader, who is ahead of the crowd, broke a chain thunder enough for everyone to "die in battle" for the comrades in arms of the whole team. In this way, he can also be regarded as "dead".
The situation suddenly changed dramatically, and everyone else was stunned before they even reacted. So that even the most basic tactical covert actions were collectively petrified without time to do them.
"Why didn't you shout and warn early?" Although he had been "killed in battle", the fourth squad leader was very unwilling to "die". He was angry and regretful. He raised his voice and complained to Cheng Chong who followed him.
Is it all my fault? Is it reasonable or not?
"I just felt the slightest abnormality." Although he was wronged, Cheng Chong didn't show it. He took a look at the four squad leaders in front of him, and then turned to look at Xiao Yong and Meng Lang who came quickly from behind, Then he expressed his views: "This is a primitive jungle. There is no road. Even if there is, it is only the trace of some wild animals. But the road ahead is very strange. It is obvious that someone has come here. Besides, we have not encountered strong resistance from the bird brigade on the way. It can be seen that they must have set fatal obstacles in places we didn't expect, To stop us from moving forward. "
Seeing that Cheng Chong was right, others nodded in recognition. At the same time, he is worried about the difficult situation at the moment.
Cheng Chong paused for a moment, Then continue to analyze: "Along the way, especially since we took this bad road, we have basically not encountered any obstruction from the bird brigade. The people of the bird brigade may not be unaware of the existence of this bad road, but they may believe that no one will take such a bad road on their own initiative, so they set their limited force on the road suitable for ordinary people, but we deviated by mistake It was only on this rotten road that we skillfully avoided the obstruction of the bird brigade. "
Cheng Chong said that Xiao Yong and others, who were already sober, were immediately confused by him. Where is this? Since we avoided the obstruction of the bird brigade, isn't that a good thing? But now there is a series of thunder in front of us, but what explanation should we make?
Although others did not immediately refute anything, the color of doubt on each face was too obvious to be obvious.
"You may think what I just said is somewhat contradictory?" Of course, Cheng Chong saw the doubts in other people's hearts, looked at others, paused for a moment, and then explained: "in fact, this is the brilliance of the bird brigade. They firmly grasped the key of the matter and deeply grasped the psychology of almost all our officers and soldiers."
"The large muddy area we have just passed is too vast for us to deploy troops to block. Only by doing so can we go so smoothly." At this point, Cheng Chong's conversation immediately turned, say: "However, when a dry and easy road suddenly appeared in front of us after a long and arduous journey, most of us would be like the fourth squad leader. Because we had not encountered obstacles for a long time, we unconsciously ignored the necessary vigilance, forgot the necessary caution and forgot the necessary caution, so that before we fully reacted, He was inexplicably 'killed in battle'. "
When Cheng Chong said this, the other soldiers immediately seemed to understand.
"You mean, because this mud area is too large, the bird brigade is inconvenient to deploy defense, so they set up all their limited troops and blocking facilities on the dry and easier road ahead?" Xiao Yong, who immediately reacted, then said what Cheng Chong wanted to say.
"Yes! That's what it means! Smart people have grasped the key to the problem and set most of their troops on the dry road. As long as they firmly hold the road, no matter what we do, it's difficult for us to pass normally!" Cheng Chong nodded helplessly and said with a worried face.
At this time, he had already felt the seriousness of the problem and the embarrassment of the current situation.
At this moment, we are in a dilemma. There is no way around. We are really in a dilemma.
"No!" The seventh squad leader, who thought he was finally free from the mud, heard Cheng Chong's analysis, Suddenly he shouted in disappointment: "We've worked so hard to get to the end of such a rotten mud road. You tell us now that the road ahead can't be taken. What's the matter with you? How do you analyze it? Do you want to kill a few brothers? Don't forget, you proposed to take this road at the beginning! How can you take us to such a road?"
At the moment, Cheng Chong had no intention to refute the strange atmosphere of the seventh squad leader. At this time, he fell into deep thinking. He thought repeatedly and carefully, trying to think out the most suitable way for everyone in such a difficult situation.
At the moment, he was like the helmsman of the whole team. He must not let the ship of the whole team hit rocks and rocks in the process of sailing.
Xiao Yong then turned his head and stared at the seventh squad leader. Ignoring his words, he turned to Cheng Chong and asked anxiously, "if that's the case, don't we have no way to go? We can't move forward, let alone retreat, and there are steep mountains on the right. What's more, we don't have much time left at the moment?"
Although he heard the monitor asking himself, Cheng Chong couldn't make up his mind at the moment. He immediately froze there and didn't know what to do. After all, the naked reality is in front of us, and Cheng Chong can't immediately create a smooth road for everyone.
At the same time, this problem is like a mountain and a large dark cloud, which is really pressing on everyone's head. Everyone is almost out of breath under this overwhelming pressure.
There is no way to go now! What should I do?
What's more, they have lost a lot of distance, and the time is very urgent at this time. If they can't find a suitable way again and delay so much, I'm afraid there is only one result waiting for them - the collective elimination.
And they were eliminated before they reached their destination.
If it is such a shameful result, how can all the candidates of the sharp knife reconnaissance company face the long-awaited eyes of company commander Yu zhanhu, and how can they live up to the ardent hope of the company's more than 100 brothers?
The scene fell into a dead silence, almost suffocating.
In the face of such a difficult problem, everyone was worried and helpless. They looked at each other and didn't know what to do!
