Battlefield Contractor

The early morning is a rare shade of quietness in a day, the scenery is pleasant, and the light red clouds in the sky give people a warm feeling. But the jungle here is primitive, and the green silence is full of insidiousness. The animals are full of life. The jungle confronts these intruders with its coldness and solemnity.

Lin Rui pressed her dry lips tightly and put down the telescope in his hand. The bushes on the mountainside and the jungle at the bottom of the mountain are connected as a whole and are inseparable.

In the extreme mountains, a few wide shadows decorate the folds of the mountains, and the silhouettes of the peaks appear in front.

"We are almost here. It is said that this was originally a secret camp for the Japanese army. There are tunnels, bunkers, command posts and storage warehouses. Under the powerful firepower of the Allied forces, they were literally razed to the ground. But now, you have a crater. I can't find it anymore." Jiang An whispered.

The plant vitality of the tropical rain forest is endless. In just one year, the fierce rain can flatten the uneven craters. This veritable piece of scorched soil was full of wormwood and tender bushes. All kinds of vines are everywhere, entangled with each other.

Crazy Horse found some Alsophila spinulosa and used his machete to cut them apart and distribute them to everyone. This is a kind of fern, woody, with tall and straight stems, large leaves, pinnately divided, and starchy stems that are edible. This is what the fighters can satisfy during the jungle survival training. It is not delicious, but it is non-toxic and can be swallowed.

Surrounding this clearing is tropical rain forest, which surrounds this mercenary team without any back-up like a green fence. Like a green cemetery, silent.

"You can reach the river through this wood." He walked along the bank and whispered.

The team members continued to walk towards the dark and damp old forest. Under his feet was the Pueraria lobata, they were entangled in life and death. Just a few steps after Lin Rui took a few steps, the barbed wild vine caught his leg.

A section of the jungle was thick and dense, and the bright sunlight could not penetrate the canopy of luxuriant foliage, but occasionally a few spots of light penetrated through the mesh. Under the feet are soft, silted black leaves. A net-like fibrous root hangs from an unknown tree, swaying slightly, like a row of nooses, and then looking forward, I feel that my eyesight is drastically reduced, and the front seems to be a green and black tunnel leading to nothing. In the abyss, every step is a daunting adventure.

Crazy Horse and Lin Rui are leading the team! The characteristics of Crazy Horse who are good at jungle warfare began to be revealed, and he and Lin Rui opened their way in front with a machete in their hands. This man is a tall Indian, with heavy equipment on his back. The jungle is full of insects, every time a knife is cut, a mass of gnats bursts up. The vines are connected, and sometimes they can’t be cut even with a few knives, just hanging in the air.

Yelena suddenly yelled and backed away, shaking her whole body with fright. It turned out that a snake fell from the tree and fell in front of her with a "patter". It seemed to be disturbed, twisted towards the fallen leaves under the feet, and raised its head.

Lin Rui took a step forward, lifted the snake's tail and shook it a few times like picking up a belt, and slammed it aside, but not far away, hung on a tree right, swayed, and sent to the intruder in the jungle. A creepy threat.

"Hey, this is a good thing." Crazy Horse immediately went up and chopped off the head of the snake, grabbed the body of the snake that was still squirming, and said with a smile, "Does anyone want to eat snake meat?"

"Damn it, take that **** thing away from me." Yelena said in disgust.

"Haha, aren't you called Viper?" Sergey laughed loudly.

"Crazy Horse is right. This is a good thing. We don't have much time to find food. Don't miss it if we encounter it." Lin Rui smiled. He and Crazy Horse continued to open the road until they were panting and sweating.

After cutting down all the way for half an hour, the team has traveled hundreds of meters. But if it is at this speed, the river will not be reached in darkness, and the further you go, the greater the physical exertion, it is absolutely impossible to maintain this speed. If they can't get there, they will be forced to sleep in the jungle again.

"It won't work like this, everyone must participate in logging in turns." Jiang An whispered, "Everyone help them change hands."

Snake Eye pulled out the machete to replace Lin Rui. He looked at the clumps of things that weren't grass, trees, or vines. He couldn't help sighing, "I don't think we've ever set foot in human footsteps here? It's **** it, dogs can't get through!"

When the team walked all the way to noon, Lin Rui ordered to stop to rest and eat.

According to the GPS, they passed nearly five kilometers in the morning. This is already a very good speed. If this continues, they are barely able to catch up today. I don't know if the jungle defeated them or they conquered the jungle. The squad members are already exhausted. The camouflage uniform was soaked with sweat, the stinky feet wearing the ground combat boots had been eroded, the sweaty crotch was worn out, it was unbearable, and stinging.

Everyone was thinking, how good would it be to take a hot bath at this time? But the reality is broken. The **** river has never been found.

But the journey after that is more complicated. The climate is suffocating, and the tropical jungle shows another form of it beyond the tangled area of ​​vines. The tall pine and cedar saga, which does not know the name, stand upright, and there are few vines. Except for the towering roots and half-foot-deep weeds, there is almost no obstacle, making them easy to walk more than two hundred meters , The team's stretched tendons suddenly relax.

Some places were covered with soft water plants, bog bubbles were in the shallow water puddles, and the blazing sun heated the shallow water in the pool, making a gurgling sound. They walked over thirty meters of marshland, and their legs were muddy with sweat all over. Everyone in the squad exudes the stench of sweat and sludge, and it is unbearably sultry, wishing to tear off a layer of skin.

However, Crazy Horse warned everyone with an authoritative tone not to loosen the cuffs, necklines and trousers because there are leeches in the sewage, locusts on the leaves, and poisonous insects in the grass...

Sergey complained, "I hate this **** place. It reminds me of the Congo rainforest."

Their weight plus a 40 kg weapon rucksack, walking in the jungle is undoubtedly a heavy burden. You have to be careful to see if there are mud puddles under these blisters. If this sinks, you will really encounter big trouble.

Lin Rui advised the brothers to be patient and persist for a few hours until they reached the river and then they could take a clean water bath. This is a great gospel to anyone, otherwise, their bodies will be rotten in this moldy military uniform. Everyone gritted their teeth again and moved on.
