The rainy season is coming soon, and the Tuareg officers are well aware that once the Niger Valley enters the rainy season, the traffic will almost be completely interrupted. They don’t even have any food in stock now. Once the rainy season comes and the roads are interrupted, they will really Will be hungry!

The only thing they can count on is that the hundreds of acres of fields over there can be harvested once in May, and they can only rely on the air force to drop food supplies for them.

However, there were very few transport planes after the last attack. He was also aware of this. It was simply impossible to fill the stomachs of thousands of them by airdropping supplies.

For this reason, in the past few days, the Tuareg officer has almost pulled out his hair because of the food problem, and he has been complaining to the division commander every day, asking for as much food as possible to be delivered to them before the rainy season, so that They can survive the rainy season.

But their new regiment leader was evasive about this, and never dared to promise to increase their supplies. Now that the enemy has captured Yubian again, could it be that they want to take the rice from Yubian's few hundred acres of fields? Also destroyed?

Thinking of this, the Tuareg officer felt chills on his back, so he didn't dare to neglect, and immediately ordered the militants in several other locations to rush at full speed, trying to retake it before the enemy completely destroyed the fields, and try to keep some of them. food over there.

But this time the Tuareg officer really thought too much. The purpose of Lin Rui leading people to attack that remote village was really just to cover the actions of other people and attract the attention of the Tuareg people.

The other village belongs to the outermost part of the defense line of the militants. After fighting, it is easy to escape and will not fall into the siege of the Tuaregs. Now they are about to retreat, so there is no need to take any more risks.

That's why Lin Rui led people to abandon those important targets and choose this small place to attack. However, the Tuareg officer has recently been made suspicious and overthinking because of food problems, so he sent a large number of reinforcements and rushed towards the village at full speed.

But when they arrived, they found that the enemy had already run away without a trace. Regarding the fields in the village, Lin Rui was really rude and directly set fire to them. The rice field was sprayed, but because of the relatively large area, it did not completely burn the grains planted by the militants here.

It's just a matter of hugging grass and beating rabbits. In short, as long as it makes life difficult for Tuareg people, they will not be polite to Tuareg people.

Looking at the messy fields and grains that were destroyed in front of them, the militants who arrived were so angry that the three corpses jumped violently and smoke was coming out of their seven orifices! I am even more convinced that the enemy did this on purpose.

But at this time, another group of mercenaries attacked in their hometown. They sneaked across the river in advance and ambushed near the target.

When he learned that Lin Rui had led people to attack the village, he led his men to attack the Tuareg base. First, he fired a smoke bomb at the base with a mortar, and soon several The bomber appeared over the Tuareg artillery base, and the jingle bells dropped a bunch of bombs on the Tuareg base like hailstones, destroying the entire Tuareg base. It was plowed with bombs, and the Tuareg base was ablaze.

However, because the artillery targets here are small, even bombing cannot kill them all. These mercenaries actually rushed into the Tuareg base militant camp when the bombers had finished dropping their bombs and another batch of bombers were bombing, and cleaned them up carefully. The militant artillery squadron at the base was completely cleaned up.

Originally, the artillery squadron of militants had already suffered heavy casualties during the bombing, and those who were bombed ran away with their heads in their arms. Just after the bombing ended, before they could recover, dozens of enemies pretending to be savages came out of the forest and killed them. They came out and rushed into their camp, killing and shooting everyone they saw.

The militants who had already been bombarded did not have time to organize an effective resistance, so their garrisons were killed by mercenaries. The guns of the militants that were blown up were blown up again.

Before leaving, they let the flamethrowers spray the houses in the militant camp, burning the Tuareg base into flames, while they plunged into the jungle and ran away .

After the bomber left, the Tuareg officer learned of the attack on the artillery base in Yubang. It was not until this time that the Tuareg officer had a little recollection. It turned out that the enemy’s fundamental purpose of attacking here was not to see The fundamental purpose of that little field and food was to cover another group of enemies to attack the Tuareg artillery base.

As for the bombing, it is estimated that the enemy bombers did it by the way, and it was probably also an action to cover their bombing of the base of the Tuareg artillery. As a result, the Tuareg base was razed to the ground by the enemy, and an artillery squadron, plus a squadron, was ticked off his roster by the enemy.

The Tuareg officer was furious, but there was nothing he could do. Even if he sent reinforcements to the Tuareg base, it would probably be too late to catch the enemies who attacked the base, because the base In the northwest is a dense forest that is inaccessible. Once the enemy drills into the forest, they will be helpless.

Especially when the weather was not beautiful, it happened to be raining again at this time. This rain was stronger than the previous few days, and it was accompanied by strong winds. It quickly washed away the traces left by the enemy in the jungle. It has become an impossible task to catch them again.

The rainy season in the Niger Valley finally came after this heavy rain. The heavy rain also caused a lot of trouble for the spy company. The rainy season came earlier than expected, which caused great obstacles to their retreat.

Although the heavy rain prevented the militants from hunting and chasing them, it also made it difficult for them to move in the jungle. After the torrential rain fell in the Niger River Valley, the already humid jungle was suddenly soaked in the rain and turned into a quagmire. If you are not careful, you will fall into the quagmire because you can't see the situation under the ground. Every step takes a lot of physical effort.

The wound on Lin Rui's back became inflamed again due to the heavy rain and soaking in sweat, and the pain was unbearable, making him hiss with pain every time he took a step, but he had no better way at this time, You can only put on a poncho to block the rain as much as possible.

In this way, they trekked through the jungle for two full days before reaching the upper reaches of the Dalong River. Looking at the river rushing up due to the heavy rain, everyone couldn't help but gasp. Their original plan was to cross the river here and join another group on the west bank of the river. After the rendezvous, they would retreat together to the super camp of the Mali army.

But now that the rainy season is coming ahead of schedule, their plans have been disrupted. The river, which was originally only tens of meters wide, has now turned into a roaring angry dragon. The rainwater gathered from the mountains has immediately increased the water volume of the river by dozens. times as much.

The river surface, which was tens of meters wide, has now become two to three hundred meters wide, and the water is still very turbulent. Many branches and trunks washed down by the flood are constantly floating down the river surface, spinning and colliding with each other in the flood. , heading downstream.

With this kind of water, let alone swimming across, the bamboo rafts would definitely not be able to get into the water. Even if they were given a big boat, crossing the river at this time would be courting death.

Everyone looked at the rushing and roaring flood in front of them, and they could only look at the flood and sigh.

"Damn it! We're in trouble!" Lincoln put his gun on his helmet, wiped the rain off his face, and said to Lin Rui with a sullen face.

Lin Rui said angrily: "Don't talk nonsense! It seems that crossing the river is impossible now!"

Everyone found a drier place in the forest and stopped to rest for a while. The dense canopy of this big tree shielded them from the heavy rain that fell from the sky, but there was still a lot of rain, which leaked from the branches and leaves of the canopy. , hiding under the big tree, but the rain is a little less.

Fortunately, the big tree they were sheltering from the rain was not the tallest tree in this area, otherwise it would have been struck by lightning. Lightning bolts fell from the sky and interweaved into a terrifying grid in the sky. The lightning was drawn to the ground and struck heavily on some big trees in the forest. The muffled thunder in the sky made the ground tremble.

God seemed to be completely angry. He swung his giant ax with lightning, and slashed heavily towards the ground. The big tree surrounded by several people was struck by lightning, and it was split in half in an instant. It was ignited immediately and became a huge torch, but it was immediately doused by the heavy rain from the sky.

Under such circumstances, everyone sat on the ground holding their guns and trembling. In front of nature, they instantly felt that they were so small, and all spirits bowed their heads under the might of God.

Davies, the Mali liaison officer, sat under a tree and looked at the sky, and said to Lin Rui: "Should we contact the other party? See how they are doing? Also, should we contact the headquarters? Report our situation." Condition?"

Lin Rui rolled his eyes, and said to Davis angrily: "If you want to contact, you can carry the radio on your back and contact in another place. If you are not afraid of lightning, you can turn it on and try! See if you are lucky enough, you will I won't be turned into a roast chicken by lightning!"

"Oh! Forget it!" Davis turned pale with fright, quickly shook his head and stepped aside, staring at the sky in a daze.

"Boss, what shall we do next? Where do we go back?" Lincoln, Sergey and the others all approached Lin Rui and asked Lin Rui. Lin Rui asked them to hold up a poncho, set up a small tent, took out the electronic map and began to study it. After looking at it for a while, he said: "It will definitely not be possible to go back the same way! The Tuareg people are now driven crazy by us." Yes, there will definitely be layers of defenses over there, and with this heavy rain, the lower reaches of the river must already be a vast ocean, so taking the southern route will definitely not work!

So we can only take the northern line, turn over from the northern hillside, and return to the camp at the northern foot of the mountain! "

"But there is no way to the north from here?" Lincoln scratched his head and said.

"Cut! Don't believe in satellite positioning at this time! After such a long time, you have been drilling around in the woods. When did you walk a decent road?

Don't they all open their own paths? There are no roads in this world, if there are many people walking, there will be roads! We can't expect our predecessors to prepare the way for us, now we need to find a way by ourselves! "Lin Rui said.

"That's reasonable. It seems that we haven't walked any decent road after we've been out for so long! But how should we go over the mountains?" Sergey said to Lin Rui, shaking his head.

"Let's go upstream along the river first! Let's talk after entering the mountain!"

"What about the rest of Group B, what do they do?"

"After the rain stops, contact them and let them go upstream along the river. After reaching the upstream, find a place for us to meet again!" Lin Rui put away the map and put it in a waterproof bag.

Everyone looked at the sky, and the rain would not stop for a while, so they huddled together and sat under the tree to rest with their ponchos on. A large number of leeches began to swarm in after smelling the smell, and they were ready to eat. These guys started to compete with the leeches when they were free, cutting off or nailing the leeches to the ground with bayonets or sabers.

"Boss! Come and take a look! There is a situation here!" At this time, Sausage, who was on guard outside, came over and said to Lin Rui. Lin Rui immediately picked up the gun and walked over with the sausage.

"Boss! Look here, these footprints are not our footprints, but barefoot footprints! They are still very fresh, probably left after it rained! They left here before we came here!" Sausage took Lin Rui walked under a tree, pointed to a line of footprints on the wet ground and said to Lin Rui.

Lin Rui squatted down and observed carefully, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com frowned and said: "It is true that there are footprints left not long ago. These footprints should not belong to the Tuaregs, nor ours! It seems that this It’s not that there are no people in the neighborhood! Okay! We’re going to change our luck this time!”

Everyone began to gather around, observing the footprints on the ground, and then someone found more footprints nearby, and someone found a tree that had been cut off.

This fully proves that there should be some local aborigines living in this area. It is difficult for ordinary people to survive here. Only the local aborigines can survive and move in this environment.

"Everyone, don't move around! You stay here and watch, pay attention to vigilance, and call those Malians over! I will take someone to look for it! See if you can find the aborigines nearby!" Lin Rui said to Lincoln.

Lincoln immediately nodded in agreement, and called for someone to call some black Malians over. After seeing the footprints on the ground, they immediately concluded that there must be an indigenous tribe nearby, and they might also be refugees from their village in northern Mali.

So Lin Rui asked them to lead the way and track them in the jungle. No one was better than Lin Rui.

Even though it was still raining, he was still able to trace the traces left by the aborigines in the jungle, and found some traps for hunting in the jungle, which further proved that there was an aboriginal tribe living here. (end of this chapter)
