Battlefield Contract Worker

After turning off the radio, Lin Rui took everyone with him, and immediately set off towards the northeast. In three days, he first bypassed several towns, and finally jumped out of the encirclement of the Tuaregs.

In order to save rations along the way, they limited the daily food supply of each person, instead they ate the wild vegetables and fruits in the jungle to maintain the nutrition needed by the body as much as possible, and cleaned up the traces they left as much as possible along the way.

After a few days, they arrived at the west bank of the Great River, which is an important tributary of the Niger River. The jungle here is extremely dense, and even when the sun is shining during the day, the forest is very dark.

Moreover, the forest was full of leeches, some of which were several inches long, and a single leech could **** a lot of blood from people or animals.

In the dim jungle, even in the daytime, normal people can only see more than ten meters away, and in some places, things cannot be seen clearly from a few meters away. It is easy for people to get lost when walking in, and they may get lost if they are a little careless.

So in this environment, not to mention humans, even some large beasts are unwilling to easily enter the jungle in this area.

But such an environment also provided good cover for the mercenary squad. No matter how powerful the Tuaregs were, they couldn't reach out to this area, so at least they didn't have to worry about running into the Tuareg search team. up.

When they withdrew to this area, everyone wrapped their bodies tightly in raincoats, tightened the cuffs and necklines, and applied engine oil or grass juice to prevent mosquitoes and locusts from biting on all exposed skin. .

Under such protection, even if they occasionally encountered poisonous snakes in the forest, they were no longer afraid of being easily bitten, so they walked through the large jungle with difficulty. Although the jungle environment in this area is extremely harsh, the food inside is very rich.

A few mercenaries used hunting bows on the road, and successfully shot and killed a small wild boar, and also hunted a medium-sized deer, which made everyone eat a few meals and fully replenished their energy.

On the way, they also encountered a huge python, which is second only to the African python in size and one of the largest pythons in the world.

On their way forward, the python suddenly attacked a Malian soldier in front of the team, almost frightened the Malian soldier to death on the spot, and uttered a shrill cry for help.

Fortunately, the others were not far away, so Lin Rui rushed over immediately with his men, and hacked the big python to death with a mess of knives. After killing this guy, they found that the Burmese python was almost mature. Yes, after pulling it apart, it is a full six to seven meters long, and weighs more than a hundred catties.

At this time, everyone was happy. Their food reserves were seriously consumed during this period of time, and the stock was running out. In the next period of time, because they could not turn on the radio, they would not be able to obtain airdrop supplies. With Kang Lai hunting with him, it is impossible to satisfy the needs of so many big belly men.

Now that such a big python was killed, they were immediately given two or three days of rations, which was enough for them to eat for two or three days.

So nature is very fair. When it takes something from you, it will give you something again. Although the natural environment here is extremely harsh, as long as you know how to survive in this natural environment, then Nature is also very generous and will provide you with an adequate supply of food.

In this way, they walked hard all the way, and after five full days, they finally entered the mountainous area at the uppermost reaches of the river. When we got here, the situation became much better. Because of the mountains, the dense forests began to thin out gradually, and the air was no longer as humid as before. As a result, the number of leeches and mosquitoes in the forest also began to decrease sharply, and the living environment became more much better.

More importantly, there are no Tuaregs stationed here at all, and it is a large and completely uninhabited land. The springs flowing down from the mountains eventually merge into a river, rushing towards the Niger Valley.

The water source has become cleaner. From the bank of the stream, you can see big fish swimming in the crystal-clear water. This shows that the water quality in this area is very good, and it can almost be drunk directly.

With water and fish, there is no need to worry about starving to death. Lin Rui ordered a group of three to spread out and search nearby to check the surrounding environment.

Soon, someone found a cave near the upper stream of the big river. After cleaning it, the cave became their temporary camp, and they no longer had to endure the wind and rain in the forest.

Everyone worked together to clean up the feces and messy things left by the animals in the cave, buried them deep in the ground, lit a lot of bonfires, put a lot of dead grass, herbs and sulfur, and soon the bats in the cave And a large number of mosquitoes have been smoked out of the cave, making the cave much cleaner.

So everyone immediately lay down in the cave stumbling around. After arriving here, they could finally relax completely.

Counting from the time of their departure to the present, they have been reconnaissance and retreated here, and it has been close to a month. Except for a few days of rest when they received airdrop supplies for the first time, they spent the rest of the time trekking in the jungle, and kept scouting the situation of the Tuaregs in the valley, and then because of Ambushed the Tuareg convoy, killed a senior Tuareg officer and stabbed a hornet's nest.

During these ten days or so, they kept running around in the jungle, and exchanged fire with the Tuaregs. By the time they got here, everyone was exhausted.

Now I can finally relax completely. Everyone lay down on the dry ground and began to sleep soundly. This sleep lasted a full day and night. Apart from taking turns guarding outside the cave, what did they do? Didn't do anything, ate and slept, ate and ate more than half of the hunted prey, filling everyone's belly full, lying on the ground in contentment and humming.

In the next few days, they stopped moving and stayed in the cave to rest well, and the wounded received better care.

The wounds that have not healed have gradually begun to heal under the dry environment in the cave. The festered skin on their bodies that was bitten by leeches or mosquitoes also scabbed. Skin that grows.

Even the wounded who had been coughing up blood all the way, after arriving here, the coughing up of blood gradually began to improve. He no longer coughed violently every day, and the wound no longer leaked body fluids, and gradually began to shrink. Even the wounded Malian soldier who had been running a fever started to have a fever on the third day, his appetite improved a lot, he began to ask for food, and he stopped grumbling and complaining about pain.

On the whole, everyone's physical strength has been greatly recovered. The foodies in the team are still making various kinds of food in different ways. The mercenaries have gradually recovered from the grief of their comrades' death and began to sleep and eat all day long. After that, run to the surrounding woods to set traps, or go hunting with a hunting bow.

The wound on Lin Rui's thigh finally healed, and the internal wound no longer hurt as much as before when he was moving, and he was no longer limping so badly when he walked, so he couldn't sit still anymore, and began to take Several brothers ran into the stream and caught fish.

The fish here have never seen human beings, they are so stupid, even if they stretch out their hands to catch them, they don't know how to escape, just sprinkle a little food, and they gather around a group, making these guys yell They were stabbed with harpoons, buckled with woven bamboo baskets, or even caught with bare hands.

Every day they can harvest a large amount of fish and shrimp, stew fish soup and eat grilled fish every day, it is a joy to eat. In addition, they caught too much and couldn't finish it, so they ground it with salt, hung it in the cave to smoke and dry it, and made it into cured fish.

After a week, they relied on hunting and fishing to accumulate a large amount of food. Even if there is no airdrop of supplies now, they don't have to worry about starving in the next few days.

A week later, Hobson proposed to withdraw to India, but Lin Rui rejected it on the spot. "Why go back? Go back to the base, besides having beer and women, what else can you do? What's wrong here? Don't go back!"

Sausage picked his teeth with a fishbone, stripped naked outside the hole, and put his crotch in the sun to dry, rolled his eyes and said to Hobson.

The sausage was Hobson who answered in Mali Chinese this time, and he looked like a rascal. Because he had been in the jungle for a long time, there was often no sunlight all day long, and the jungle was extremely humid. Many people got rotten crotch.

These days, as long as the weather is good, they all run to a place outside the cave where they can get some sun and lie down, basking in the sun with their crotches on, the scene is spectacular.

A bunch of guys with rotten crotch, get together and swear words, compete with each other, and then laugh at the guys who are smaller somewhere, these veterans are no exception, after a week of recuperation, Now everyone's crotch has basically returned to normal, even so, they still like to come out to dry their crotch every day.

Even the translator was lying on the side drying his crotch, and burst out laughing on the spot after hearing the sausage-like rogue's answer.

Lin Rui translated the words to Hobson. Hobson also basked in his crotch and gave Lin Rui an anxious look. He stared at Lin Rui and said loudly, "How can this be done? It is impossible for us not to go back for a long time! How can we stay here forever? You must know that there are still many things that need to be done. Let's do it!"

Lin Rui looked at Hobson and said with a smirk, "I don't care! Until our brothers recover from their injuries and the crotch is completely healed, I won't go back no matter what! Just stay here for vacation!"

Hobson was anxious and angry, and quarreled with Lin Rui. Lin Rui lay comfortably on the ground, watching Hobson get anxious with him, but not annoyed. He waited until Hobson had yelled enough, then put away his smirk, put on his underpants, and looked straight at Hobson. Said: "Okay, okay! I know you are loyal to your duty! I was just joking with you just now!

We can't go yet! It's not that I'm trying to be lazy! Although the physical strength of the brothers has recovered now, Fuxing and Miller's injuries have just recovered, and they can't stand the bumps of the long-distance march!

If you leave now, it may kill them! I don't want to see any of us lose their lives again!

So we need to rest here for a few more days! In addition, it is not wise to go now. The Tuaregs must still be hunting us everywhere. If we go out now, it is tantamount to throwing ourselves into a trap!

Also, we only scouted a part of the area before, and there is still a large area that has not been scouted. Going back like this is a waste of time, so we have to wait for the enemy to relax before continuing to scout!

If you want to go back as soon as possible, then we can divide into two groups, you take the people who want to go back and go first, I will stay and take care of the wounded, and then go after they recover! "

After hearing this, Hobson nodded helplessly: "Mr. Rick, you seem to be always right! Well then, I will obey your orders!"

Lin Rui's prediction was actually not bad at all. This time the Eighth Regiment really went crazy. Together with some other Tuaregs, thousands of people were involved in this big manhunt. They sorted out the entire jungle within tens of kilometers around the attack site, and sent countless search teams to try to catch the mercenary squad.

However, after more than ten days of repeated searches, although some search teams had encountered mercenary squads many times, they were eventually escaped by the mercenary squad. UU Reading www. uukanshu.com

In the end, they suddenly lost the trace of the mercenary unit, and could no longer find the trace of the mercenary unit, and even the radio signal of the mercenary unit completely disappeared.

For this reason, Azzam of the headquarters was also furious, checked the map himself, and marked the positions reported by the Tuareg search team who had encountered the mercenary unit on the map one by one.

In the end, he judged that the mercenary unit might have bypassed them and fled to the dense forest in the north, but the dense forest in this area is the worst place in the Niger Valley, and it is no man's land at all. No one can survive for a long time, even the aborigines who live in the jungle all year round will not go there.

It is called the cursed jungle by the natives, and anyone who breaks into it will be devoured by the devil, and there is absolutely no way to get out of the jungle alive.

Of course the Tuaregs didn't believe in evil, so they ordered the Tuaregs stationed nearby to send several search teams into the dense forest to investigate.

But in just two or three days, several search teams escaped from the jungle in a panic, and each of them suffered heavy losses.

There was even a search team that completely disappeared into the jungle after entering, and another search team with more than 30 people escaped in the end with less than ten people. (end of this chapter)
