After a quick check that there were no other armed men around us, we turned around, and the old guy Yugovich quickly followed the group of armed men.

There are no armed men on either side of this team, so it is likely that this team is currently a vanguard. When they get closer, they will probably do some reconnaissance, clear the outposts and occupy some points, and even tentative attacks, and then wait for the arrival of the team, and finally the group will point out the direction of the team's real attack.

If so, then these people should be very powerful, after all, such a task is done cleverly and secretively, but if you make a big deal and scare the snake, then there will be no then, of course, it does not mean that they will be finished, but the entire expected plan will definitely not be completed.

But why do these people seem relaxed? Although they maintained good discipline during the break, they seemed to be talking and laughing when they walked, and did not worry at all about encountering hostile armed men. Why is that? Don't... Could it be that someone had already done a reconnaissance in the vicinity of our station, or that someone within this Serb was tipping off the bandits? Let these people know that we are a group of defeated soldiers and have just arrived here, and most of them are arranging shelter, recuperating from injuries, tidying up housekeeping, and cleaning?

It seems that Younis is right, no one in this organization can be trusted. But will there be a problem with this gang of Ivanovich's people? Probably not, at least it's less likely. These people who are still willing to continue to do it should be said to be a poor gang of hot-blooded people, with Ivanovich's style, they will not have anything to do with a gang like the Count, what about his men? Judging from the words and deeds of these people, they admire Ivanovich very much, which is a very important reason why they chose to work with us. Then no one of them will have anything to do with the Count.

So what's going on? Can these people slowly walk towards us so fearlessly? "Ke Qiman?" I thought of him suddenly. If it was true that someone from inside had sent a message to the Earl, then it was most likely this person. The leaders who are still around, Petkovic is a proud man, and even if he has become the least powerful, only better than us outsiders, he does not appear very humble in meetings. Let him secretly collude with the notorious Earl? Unlikely.

Although Fastich is the closest to the Earl, judging from Fastic's angry appearance, he should have been bullied by the Earl often, and this time he was beaten by the Earl. If he wants to see us fight to the death with the Count, I believe that, but if he wants to betray us and let the Count eat us easily? This is unlikely. At least that's not in Fastic's interests at the moment.

So Ke Qiman, the information of this operation was provided by him, and he did not participate in any operation after that, and the team was intact and there was no loss, is this an intelligence mistake and coincidence? I didn't settle accounts with him this time because he had already grown big, and no one here could hold him at the moment. However, it is impossible to say that he has a connection with NATO, but if he has a relationship with the earl, I believe that many people dare not say with great certainty that they do not. Maybe the presence of our gang and the things we got at this meeting made Kechiman feel like a potential threat, or was it an obstacle to what he was going to do in the future? Thinking of this, I decided that if I could get through this time, I must contact Eunice and let the old guy use his wisdom and strength to investigate the problem.

So I stopped thinking about these questions and focused all my attention on the immediate moment. We followed the thirty or so people in front of us all the way. In fact, this is the same as Eunice taught us to track before, not too close, and it is tracking outside the line-of-sight. We just judged the direction in which they walked based on footprints and some traces left in the woods and grass. We can't just talk casually, almost nothing, to prevent the voice from being heard by the other person. And we must always pay attention to the movement in front and even on both sides, to prevent the other party from stopping and we from hitting them headlong, and even to prevent the other party from discovering us behind us, who have sharpened their knives and are waiting for us.

We followed it all the way until it was almost evening, when the old guy in front of us suddenly slowed down and stopped after walking for about thirty or forty meters. Then the old fellow looked ahead and on both sides, and I looked in the direction he was looking and listened quietly for a while, as if I could hear some very soft voices from the woods.

After a few moments, the old guy motioned for the team to change formation and spread out to his left and right. This means to be ready to do it, at least to show that you are already close to the other person and ready to do it at any time.

I quickly walked over to the old guy, and Yugovic looked at me, pointed ahead, and whispered, "It's about a hundred meters away from us." We can't move anymore. If you move again, it will be easy for the other party to notice. ”

I nodded and looked around, "This is where we should not be far from where we are stationed, judging by time and speed." ”

The old guy nodded and said, "It's not far away." Pick up the speed and walk for about twenty minutes to reach our station. This should be a little south and east of our station. The gang stopped, presumably to take a short break and then do an approach reconnaissance. ”

The old guy is right, these people are not tired of walking and need to rest. Rather, they know exactly where we are located, and they are making final preparations for the imminent operation.

"I don't know how they're preparing." I looked left and right and whispered.

"As long as there are no accidents, Lukovic should have delivered the letter. The people in the station should have already been defending themselves with guns in their hands. The old guy said.

"Uncle. We can't watch these guys scout our premises. The reason should be clear to you and you don't need me to explain. I said.

Yugovic nodded, "I understand. The Earl is not a fool and will not only send these people. There must be someone else. ”

"That's right. So I'm going to do it to these guys. I looked at Yugovic and said.

"Seven people fight thirty?" Yugovich looked at me, then he looked in the direction of the station, "You want the people inside to come out and join us after the gunshots go off here?" ”

"Yes. Milk is very experienced, and he won't fail to react when he hears the gunshots here. We fought and walked in the direction of the station. We just bite these people hard and then we leave. Quickly evacuate to the station, do you think it will work? I said.

After thinking for a moment, Yugovich said: "How are you going to withdraw?" ”

Listening to the old guy ask this, I know he's already approved of my suggestion to attack. I pointed to the east, "We're launching a surprise attack from behind the flanks of this gang." Fight to kill about ten of them in one round, and then retreat from the east to the station, making a circle. I gestured as I spoke, "Circle the arc a little more, stretch their battle line." There are not many of them, and as long as we can't catch up in a short period of time, the people who will consider chasing away from them will be too scattered, and they will be afraid that the people in the station will attack, so they will be passive. So we go far away, and they are bound to chase fewer and fewer people, and even choose to give up soon. ”

Yugovic nodded after thinking about it for a moment, "That's it." You're right, you can't do nothing here. Doing nothing may be what these people want. So be it. ”

I nodded and looked left and right, gesturing and whispering, "Check the weapon." “

After seeing them finish quickly, I looked at the old guy, "Uncle." You lead the way. “

Yugovic nodded, got up and led us slowly to the east. After about thirty or forty meters, the old fellow stopped again, and after identifying the next direction, he walked in a north-west direction. Soon stopped again.

At this point, we have completely unfolded the formation, and the old guy motioned to everyone to stop making a noise, and try to be careful not to make a big noise. After observing for a while, the old guy signaled that there should be someone from the other side about fifty or sixty meters in front of me.

I nodded for me to go and have a look, and the old guy nodded and began to take off his backpack, looking ready to join me. So I took off my backpack and put it on the ground, put the gun on my back and lay down on the ground, and then slowly crawled forward with the old guy.
