"Into the forest, it's a Japanese reconnaissance plane." A lonely black dot appeared in the sky, and Zhao Zhi hurriedly ordered his mercenaries to enter the woodland to hide. Zhao Zhi's keen premonition seemed to have never made a mistake, and after everyone hid in the forest for only a few minutes, the black spot in the sky slowly magnified, Tang Lei raised the telescope to look at the black spot in disbelief, it was indeed a Japanese fighter with the Japanese Xiaohongmaru logo.

Zhao Zhi gestured to Tang Lei, implying that Tang Lei was an inaudible deaf person, although the movement of the Japanese fighter plane during the flight was not big, but Zhao Zhi heard it, on the contrary, Tang Lei only relied on his own eyes and forgot his ears. Tang Lei, who was teased by Zhao Zhi, laughed embarrassedly, but he was only a little embarrassed, he knew that his husband was a monster-like existence, and it was better to kill 100 Japanese soldiers by himself than to compete with him.

The Japanese army has built airfields in Vietnam and Thailand, but when the Sixth Division was encircled and suppressed last time, the Thunder fighter unit bombed the Japanese airfields in Vietnam, and until now, the Japanese army's air capability in Vietnam has not been restored. Yamashita was re-in charge of the 25th Army's use of troops against Burma, and the route he chose was to enter the Chan Bang Mountains from Jingdong and then into northern Burma.

The reason why Yamashita did not use reconnaissance planes in the first two days of the battle was because he was afraid that the reconnaissance planes that took off from Thailand would be shot down by Thunder fighters. The Japanese reconnaissance plane has been hovering in the air, and Zhao Zhi in the forest just took this opportunity to rest and use submachine guns and rifles to deal with the reconnaissance plane.

"Tell everyone to rest first, and when the Japanese reconnaissance plane leaves, we will act." Looking at the Japanese reconnaissance plane hovering in the sky, Zhao Zhi's eyes lit up with anger, and the scouts in front reported that the 11th Wing of the Japanese Army was 5 miles away. According to the speed of the 11th Wing, it will not take them 2 hours to get here, this forest is not dangerous to defend, Zhao Zhi and they were blocked here by the Japanese reconnaissance planes It is very disadvantageous, and they have to find a way to leave.

Perhaps the Japanese reconnaissance planes discovered something, but after a short time, another Japanese reconnaissance plane appeared in the sky, and the two reconnaissance planes could not help but take turns circling and reconnoitring in the woodland, but they never left. "Sir, what shall we do? The scout said that the 11th Wing was less than 2 miles away. Tang Lei looked at Zhao Zhi with some worries, the 11th Wing is getting closer and closer to here, but they were forced by the Japanese reconnaissance plane to do nothing in the woods, if they are not prepared for the battle in advance, once the 11th Wing arrives here and finds them, there will inevitably be a fierce battle waiting for everyone.

"Cold salad" Zhao Zhi glanced at Tang Lei angrily, at this time Zhao Zhi regretted not bringing a large-caliber Browning heavy machine gun over, that thing is really suitable for dealing with the Japanese reconnaissance aircraft in the sky, just a bullet chain, Zhao Zhi took care of the two annoying things in the sky. "Tell everyone to pack up their equipment, let's go to Area 5." The No. 5 area that Zhao Zhi said was a hill less than 1 mile away behind them, and the Burmese mercenaries who were in charge of leading the way said that the hill was called Dry Leaf Ridge, and Zhao Zhi estimated that the 11th Wing would definitely pass through there when he rushed to the rescue of the 18th Division.

"Pap" "Pap" "Pap" Zhao Zhi took the mercenary Garland next to him, fired several shots at the Japanese reconnaissance plane in the sky, and then ordered his mercenaries not to hide their figures, but went straight to the Dry Leaf Ridge in front of the Japanese reconnaissance plane. "Sir, what are you going to do? Didn't you hide from the Japanese reconnaissance plane just now? Why did you change your mind again in the blink of an eye? Not only Tang Lei, Zhao Zhi's move made his mercenaries extremely puzzled, but everyone buried their doubts in their hearts and didn't ask them.

Perhaps Zhao Zhi's shooting played a role, or the Japanese reconnaissance planes really discovered the mercenaries' movements, and the two Japanese reconnaissance planes that kept circling swooped down towards the mercenaries' travel route. The machine guns under the belly of the plane opened fire fiercely, the trees on the mercenaries' route were broken and shattered, and the Japanese pilots in the cabin laughed when they looked at the enemy troops on the ground who were "embarrassed to dodge".

Zhao Zhi had long thought that the Japanese reconnaissance opportunity would use machine guns against them, which was very consistent with the character of the Japanese who were eager to retaliate, so before he ordered the troops to rush to the 5 good area, he had already informed the mercenaries to pay attention to the Japanese reconnaissance planes in the sky. When the Japanese reconnaissance plane dived and strafed, the mercenaries' "embarrassment" was a deliberate gesture, and it was not a good thing to expose the strength of the mercenaries prematurely, and before the 11th Wing was fired, Zhao Zhi preferred to be regarded by the Japanese army as an ordinary thunder force.

The Japanese reconnaissance plane, which had strafed two rounds, saw that the enemy troops on the ground had taken refuge in the woods, so they had no choice but to pull up the plane and return home, but before that, the position of this small group of enemy forward troops had been passed back by them. "Let's go, speed up and go to Area 5" The daily average reconnaissance plane left, and Zhao Zhi and his gang, who had re-drilled out of the forest, hurried to Area 5 at a faster speed, and the 11th Wing of the Fifth Division of the Japanese Army could rush here, Zhao Zhi and they needed to have time to prepare for the battle.

As the name suggests, Dead Leaf Ridge is a place full of fallen leaves, this was originally a rainforest, I don't know what the reason is, I don't know when it started, the trees here are dying one after another, until now, less than one-tenth of the trees on the entire Dead Leaf Ridge are still alive. There are fewer trees, and the animals and plants living in this mountain forest will also decrease, and there will be many fewer terrifying existences such as locusts, poisonous mosquitoes, and snakes in other jungles in northern Myanmar.

No matter what the mercenaries thought of this place, Zhao Zhi was very satisfied with this place, not because of the terrain of the Dead Leaf Ridge, but because of the thick dead leaves on the entire mountain range. "It's a good place to set fires" Standing in the open space at the top of the mountain, Zhao Zhi looked around, the Dry Leaf Ridge was not a lonely mountain, there were other mountains around it, but there was still a large open area between the mountains and the mountains. If the Dead Leaf Ridge catches fire, even if the entire Dead Leaf Ridge burns out, it is estimated that it will not endanger the vegetation of the surrounding mountains.

The mercenaries who rushed to the Dead Leaf Ridge did not care about resting, and after putting down their backpacks, they immediately began to build fortifications and bunkers, using those dead trees and rocks, the mercenaries quickly built several simple fortification bunkers. "Sir, the rope for the cliff behind is ready, the brothers of the scout team have gone down to take a good look at the terrain, and we can evacuate from the cliff at any time." Tang Lei, who was sweating hotly, ran over and whispered to Zhao Zhi about the arrangement of the retreat route.

Behind the Dead Leaf Ridge is a cliff more than 30 meters high, this cliff is destined that the Japanese army will not form an encirclement of the Dry Leaf Ridge, but this is exactly the back road that Zhao Zhi has prepared. More than thirty ropes have been fixed to the top of the cliff, and if the 11th Wing poses a threat to Zhao Zhi and them, they can quickly evacuate here through these ropes. "Sir, the 11th Wing is here, and their forward force has appeared 500 meters southeast of Dry Leaf Ridge, and there is a squadron of troops." The return of the scouts in front was very timely, and Zhao Zhi, who received the information, ordered all the scouts in front to immediately retreat to the Dead Leaf Ridge.

"Mada, take your people to beat them, don't fight too hard, just let the Japanese know that we are in Dry Leaf Ridge." The motor that controls the sniper is one of the few leisurely people among these mercenaries under Zhao Zhi, and following Zhao Zhi to fight in the mountains and forests for many days, the sniper team is just showing a small hand in the face of the 42nd Wing, and most of the other time, the sniper team of the motor is acting as a guard post and ammunition man, and now it is finally their turn to fight, and the eyes of the snipers are full of excitement.

240 meters, this is Zhao Zhi's death order to the motor, must not let the forward troops of the 11th Wing rush into the defense line within 240 meters, the range of the Japanese grenadier bombardment is more than 240 meters, but they can ensure the accuracy of the case, 200 meters is already the limit of the grenadier bombardment. The Dead Leaf Ridge was full of dead trees and vegetation, and it was unlikely that the Japanese would use mortars in such terrain, so as long as the snipers under the motor could control the Japanese army 240 meters away, Zhao Zhi would have plenty of time to implement his plan.

"Bang" "Bang" "Bang" The dull sound of the sniper rifle sounded in the mountains and forests, and the motor knew that the purpose of his husband ordering the sniper to engage the enemy first was to deter most of the casualties, so before ordering the sniper to fire freely, the motor did not let the sniper install a silencer on his weapon. Once the sniper rifle is equipped with a silencer, it will definitely affect its range and accuracy, since his husband deliberately wants to expose the location of the Dead Leaf Ridge position to the 11th Wing, why should the motor hide the strength and lethality of the sniper.

The forward squadron of the 11th Wing, which had no intention of going to the Dry Leaf Ridge, was caught off guard by the motors, and under the accurate fire of 40 snipers, the 11th Wing's forward squadron quickly abandoned more than 100 corpses and retreated. It's not that they don't dare to shoot back, but the snipers all fire their guns from 300 meters away, and the bolt-action rifles used by the Japanese army don't let alone fight back, even the shadow of the snipers they can't see it, and they can't fight back at all.
