384 Ambushed again
The scene that came into front of everyone's eyes shocked their hearts a little, and no one thought that in a vast jungle mountain range, there was such a place full of people.
At this time, Lu Yu and the others were hiding on a mountain peak, looking towards a flat basin at the foot of the mountain.
The basin is not very large, about seven or eight hundred acres of land, but in this basin is close to the peaks where Lu Lu and them are located, extending up from the foot of the mountain, densely packed with various thatched houses, wood and stone buildings are unevenly scattered together, the naked eye casually glances, at least three or five thousand families live in it, doi is an underestimate.
At this time, it was evening, and the smoke rose from the cottage, the sound of children fighting, the roaring of adults, and even the sound of someone's crying, they could also hear Lu Yu on the mountain peak.
The scale of this cottage was completely beyond everyone's expectations, and after the plan was to find the other party's lair, everyone took advantage of the fact that the opponent's main force was defeated by them before, and it was when they were weak to take this cottage in one fell swoop. But looking at it now, with the manpower they brought now, and then looking at the scale of the cottage below, all the Hongtang team members, including Lu Yu, couldn't help but close their mouths tightly, and at the same time carefully restrain their movements, so as not to expose the whereabouts of the team.
"Go, retreat!"
Lowering his voice, Lu Qi gave instructions to Yamamoto and Dong Haoran, and then, a group of Hongtang team members who had finally found the indigenous cottage retreated along the road they came.
It wasn't until they retreated to a secluded area that everyone stopped and set up camp, while a group of scout sentries were released.
"What to do? With our manpower, it may be impossible to wipe out this unknown tribe! Although they were confident in Hong Tang's fighting strength, Lu Yu still maintained a minimum of self-awareness, and they would not really think that they could eradicate such a large cottage with more than a thousand people.
"Retreat, anyway, we've drawn out the map and route along the way, and it's not too late to clear out this tribe when we go back and reorganize a group of men, or join up with the team on the Bengang side." The first person to speak was the battalion commander yesterday, surnamed Niu Qiangwei, although he was a young man, he was a new generation of pirates, so he always seemed a little sleek.
"I'm afraid it's too late!" Yamamoto Fifty-six had a calm face, listened to the chirping of a few birds in the mountains, and then said solemnly to Lu Yu: "Regiment Commander, please quickly gather the team members and prepare for battle, our scouts have already found a lot of indigenous warriors who have come towards us!" ”
"What!!"
Not only Lu Yu was shocked, but even all the non-commissioned officers present exclaimed.
"Are you sure? Where did the other party appear, and how many people came? "For a while, everyone was in a mess, and at this time everyone was in the enemy's sphere of influence, just like the turtle in the urn, who was worried that it would be discovered by the other party, who would have thought that this worry would finally become a reality!
"I don't know, but my men in the west and south have raised the alarm, and it's at least certain that there are enemies approaching in both directions." Yamamoto listened intently to the faint sound of birds in the sky, and replied until the birds stopped suddenly.
"Let's gather quickly and retreat along the way we came!" Finally, he came to his senses, Lu Que was also a battle-hardened player, and he was a little flustered in his heart, but he still did not have the problem of disordered mind, and immediately gave the order to continue to retreat.
Subsequently, the team members who had just set up camp and had not had time to rest were picked up by the non-commissioned officers who hurried back, and chased after them and gave the order to retreat urgently. Although the non-commissioned officers did not elaborate on why they were retreating, judging by their nervous expressions, I am afraid that something bad has happened.
After a short while, Da Qian was urgently assembled, and under the leadership of the captains of their respective companies, they hurriedly ran on the way back. At this time, he could no longer care about the hidden figure, and all kinds of loud roars and collisions came and went, just to be able to raise the speed of the march.
It was only after the remnants of the special combat soldiers returned to the main unit that many of their questions were answered from the mouths of these elite soldiers.
"To the south and west of us, there is a team in our direction, because of the dim light, we can't detect the approximate number, but from the formation of the opponent's formation, it is estimated that at least the size of the number is more than a thousand." Yamamoto followed Lu Yu's footsteps and reported the results of the investigators' investigation to Lu Yu.
"It seems that people have already discovered us, just waiting for us to take the bait!" Lu Qi sighed, he thought it was a game of cat and mouse, but who would have thought that in the end, the mouse would turn into a tiger, and he would turn his head and tear their cat to pieces.
"Immortals! Immortals! ”
"Ah!!h
"Enemy attack, hidden!"
The bad news didn't just come from behind, Lu Lu and they were still sighing that the retreating people in front of them were in a rain of arrows, and many people fell. Although after everyone effectively dodged, the counterattack in front also unfolded, but thinking about the chasing soldiers behind them, all of them turned pale the moment this ambush appeared.
No one thought that the natives would be so cunning that they ambushed a team behind them, and when they were moving forward, Yamamoto and their forwards were already extremely cautious, and they reconnoitred the surrounding movements, but they still couldn't find the poisonous snake hiding behind them.
"I'm sorry Commander, it was my dereliction of duty that I didn't find out that the other party was also ambushing behind us." The moment Yamamoto sounded the alarm, he immediately opened his mouth and admitted his mistake to Lu Yu.
"Forget it, none of us thought that the strength of this group of natives would be so strong, they have already killed more than a thousand warriors by us, and they can still organize so many people to deal with us, and it is really difficult for them to hide in the shadows all the time, so that we Hongtang will not find out!" Lu Yu also knew that even if he was in the position of Yamamoto, it was impossible to do better than him, but people were not as good as heaven, who would have thought that in the vast mountains, there would be a super large tribe with a population of more than 10,000 people!
"Now that there is no enemy left in the north, should we break through in a different direction?" Niu Qiangwei looked at everyone's depressed appearance, and was the first to jump out to admonish.
"How to break through, the enemy in front is entangled with us, and the pursuers behind are getting closer and closer, I think it's better to find a condescending favorable terrain nearby to defend." Another non-commissioned officer pointed to the hotly fought battlefield ahead and glared angrily.
"Otherwise, after I come to break off, everyone will retreat to the north!" Yamamoto took over the conversation, as a striker, he was full of chagrin and remorse for himself who led the team into the enemy's encirclement, and stood up at this time to shoulder the responsibility and fight for a glimmer of life for everyone.
"Shut up!" Lu Yu could understand Yamamoto's feelings, but he couldn't agree with this approach, even if they retreated to the north at this time, and several mountains in the north stood in front of them, they would definitely not be able to outrun the natives who were familiar with the area.
"Tell me, what are we going to do now?" After forcibly suppressing everyone's opinions, Lu Lu turned his head to look at Dong Haoran and them.
"I think the nearest garrison is our only choice, the opponent's strength is strong, and it is deliberate, we can't run out of the opponent's encirclement, so it is better to save physical strength and overall strength, and find a high mountain garrison." Speaking of this, in the dim light, Dong Haoran pointed to a hillside in front of the left that was not too high, but not low, the most important thing was that this hillside existed independently and was not connected to other mountain ranges.
"The garrison is secondary, the first task is to send a few elite teams to pass on the news that we are surrounded, otherwise we will only have a few more breaths of time to breathe when we are trapped between these mountains!"
This is actually the reason why Niu Qiangwei did not propose to be stationed in the lonely place, if there were no backup personnel to rescue them, they would be stationed here, and it would only be a dead word to stick to the end.
"I'm willing to bring someone back to report the news, and I promise to bring reinforcements back!" Yamamoto was the first to stand up, although he knew that at this time, it was actually more dangerous to break through and report the news than to stick to one place, but the feeling of self-blame made him take the initiative to take this responsibility.
"Needless to say, you also have a share of this mission!" It seems that not only Dong Haoran and the countermeasures they came up with in the airport are like this, but even Lu Qi also thinks like this, and without waiting for Dong Haoran and their suggestions, Lu Qi immediately nodded and agreed to Yamamoto's request.
It's just that no one is happy that Yamamoto has stepped forward and picked up the most dangerous mission, and they all know very well that even if Yamamoto breaks through the siege and rushes back to Chicken Coop Port, it will be at least eight or nine days later. Not to mention, in the Chicken Coop Harbor at this time, in addition to the 500 soldiers who stayed on Hulu Island and the more than 500 people in the special operations battalion in the Chicken Coop Mountain Station, the rest of the Whale Department was still in the Ryukyu Kingdom to help prevent the invasion of Samosa!
"Company Commander Yamamoto, don't be mistaken about the goal of your report, in addition to sending two teams of people to report back to the logistics team and let them retreat quickly, the other teams must continue to move west, cross the mountains to find the Bengang team, and ask for their assistance!" Dong Haoran and the others originally intended to let Yamamoto lead the team to break out, after all, only the people from the special operations battalion could get rid of the pursuit of the natives in the jungle battle, and then successfully complete their rescue mission.
The third watch, which broke out again today, has two chapters and 3,000 words, which is equivalent to four more today, please encourage and cheer!
