In the rainforest, Cao Jixiang's face is not very good-looking, but in fact, his body is crippled, and he is weaker than others. By others, I don't mean ordinary people, but the battalions sent out by this guard regiment*, as well as the reconnaissance company of the guard regiment. Who are these people? The elite of the Ming army is in the new army, needless to mention, it is a consensus in China; The elite of the new army is in the front four divisions, which are Ding Yi's descendants, with the best equipment, the most rigorous training, the most perfect support, and the highest military salary and various allowances.

Then the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th divisions, who dares to say that they are more elite than the soldiers of the guard regiment?

Although Cao Jixiang was castrated, he was more capable of fighting than ordinary people, and his endurance was good, but compared with the four or five hundred men around him at this time, he was uncomfortable! Long distance marching and camping in the rainforest, sometimes finding signs of indigenous activity, or finding some suspected hoof prints of Mamluk cavalry, had to eat dry food, basically except for boiling water, and did not light a fire to make hot food. Keep walking, keep walking.

Mongolian horses carry heavy loads, do you dare to ride horses in the rainforest? Not to mention the endless variety of animals, when the first horizontal branch can blind the eyes, there is really no road here. And riding a horse as a target for the natives? Everyone goes, just Cao someone rides a horse, and the natives can't say that they shoot people first and shoot horses, but they don't get in the way of people's bone arrows and blowing arrows to come over.

Therefore, the preferential treatment that Cao Jixiang received was to pull the horse's tail and walk. Don't underestimate this. I can't move in a real feeling, and I want such a pulling force. It's still a lot easier.

At present, the reconnaissance detachment of the 1st Rong Division has been found, and it should be the last camping point. Liu Tie refused to send someone back to report the news, and he refused to retreat, what the hell is this! Why do you know, probably the last camping site? Because on the surrounding trees, there are marks that have just been made, and there are signs of grenade explosions, according to the marks on the trees, dig out a few pieces of wood, and scribble the words on them: "Da Ming is mighty!" "The reconnaissance detachment died here! "In that pit. There are also a few bronze medals that record the soldier's military status, name, and blood type, and a few seals of 100 households-the sergeant squad leader of the 1st Rong Division usually has the title of 100 households.

"Zijian, at this moment, our family will not be polite." Cao Jixiang wiped the sweat on his head and face, hot, this weather is so fucking hot, those Kunlun slaves are so dark, I think they were exposed to the sun of this dog day! He cursed inwardly. While soaking off the small worm that crawled to his neck, he persuaded Liu Tie.

"Along the way, seventeen places have been found where the bones of the martyrs are buried, and twenty-six bronze medals have been collected for soldiers. There are still six people who have not been identified dead, this vast desert, the surging Nile. Reckless rainforest, I waited for four or five hundred people. How to find these six people? If they had been spared, they would have come to join us here at the Nile. Otherwise, let's withdraw and give the young master an explanation! ”

Liu Tie couldn't see any expression on his face painted with yellow mud, but just listened to him: "Director Cao, if you can't do it, just wait here, and leave the baggage of a pack horse for you, do you think this is good?" In five days, we haven't come back yet, so you should go back to Suez first! ”

Several company commanders on the side also nodded, and someone spoke: "Don't be reluctant, you can accompany you here, you have done your best, and the men in the army will accept your affection." Someone else said, "There is a future for everything, and you stay here, but you are also waiting for me to guard the back road." ”

didn't look down on him, they didn't compliment him, Cao Jixiang could hear that they were looking for him to get under the steps.

Because of Cao Jixiang's physical fitness, he has begun to drag down the rescue troops, but he is indeed gritting his teeth and insisting, everyone sees in their eyes, people's hearts are flesh and blood, and no one can bear to say it directly.

"Ah, you monkey cubs, do you think our family is a drag? When did our family cowardly go into battle to kill the enemy? Cao Jixiang was not happy, and made a strong face with a straight face, "Where are you when our family follows the young master in the wooden bone capital and obliterates the crocodile king?" Damn it, look down on people! ”

Although he is scolding, but his heart is happy, no one here looks down on him because he is a eunuch, or slaps him on the back, approximately, this is what Ding Yi said about equality, right? Cao Jixiang didn't know, he just learned from Liu Tie, got some wet mud by the river and smeared it on his face and neck, and then got up and said: "Action, action!" If you keep talking, it's like our family is timid! Liu Zijian, it's still our family and the young master who asked you to come, it's good for you to eliminate people! ”

Five hundred people began to disperse in the rainforest in platoons, following the clues in the rainforest to search for the whereabouts of Mamluk. In the evening, before the sun set, most of the personnel reunited, exchanged the information obtained by their own team, and came to a conclusion that Cao Jixiang couldn't believe: "The reconnaissance detachment of the Rongyi Division is still fighting, they must still have people alive and fighting." ”

"At least two days ago, while we were still fighting, we were platoon five hundred meters to the southeast, and we found a smokeless stove that had collapsed and then covered with turf, which was obviously the habit of brothers in the army." The platoon leader made a gesture on the ground with stones and branches, "Eight hundred meters away to the southeast, there are overlapping hoof prints, larger than Mongolian, it should be the tall horse ridden by Mamluk, as the horse's hooves chase down, find a few piles of horse dung, about a day or two, if it is longer, the beasts in the forest should destroy the hoof prints." ”

Another platoon commander who was in charge of searching in the northeast direction also expressed his judgment: "There are still people who have not sacrificed, there must be, because the traces of Mamluk's activities are obviously searching for something, they have a purpose, there is a black tribe in the southwest, it should have been razed by Mamluk seven or eight days ago, and the corpses were all mutilated by wild beasts, but on the side, a large amount of fresh horse manure and human dung were found, which should have been left two days ago." ”

And a more specific report came with the last few platoons: "About 1,003 meters to the southeast, two groups of Mamluk's cavalry, one fifty-four men and one more, with about 300 men, were discovered. ”

"There is a camp of about 500 people in the northeast, and a squad has been left there to monitor the opponent's movements."

"One company is on alert, the other personnel immediately go to sleep, look at the hourglass, after an hour, change the second company to be on guard, the first company sleeps, the regimental headquarters reconnaissance company searches for food, the third company handles food, and after dark, the action begins." After Liu Tie gave orders to several company commanders, he said to Cao Jixiang, "Cao Chuza, I'm sorry, you have to guard first, I'll watch for a while, wait for the second company to get up, I'll replace you, and you can go to sleep." ”

"Done!" Cao Jixiang was actually too tired, but he responded very happily, because he knew that his body, his actions at night were probably useless, and he needed someone to stay behind for his baggage, so it was necessary to let Liu Tie rest for a while.

After dark, each company left four soldiers with some weak physical fitness, a total of sixteen people, together with the soldiers of the four cooking squads, under the command of Cao Jixiang, stationed by the Nile.

"Action." Liu Tie waved his hand, and the soldiers opened it and took out the sealed phosphorescent glass tube and pinned it to their arms. Inside the glass are corrupted bones, Ding Yi is now based on this industry, and he can't invent phosphorescent paint, but such a small ghostfire light is already very good for a scout without night blindness, and for other armies in this era, it is already epoch-making equipment.

The flickering ghost fires spread out in the rainforest at night, looking like a swarm of fireflies from a distance, but to Cao Jixiang, he felt like a hundred ghosts walking at night. In fact, the security yamen were known as the black-clothed Yama in China, and a big reason was that they used this phosphorescent glass tube when they carried out their missions at night.

At first, there was no sound in the rainforest, I don't know if it would be an illusion, Cao Jixiang, who was sitting on the bank of the Nile, felt the smell of blood, wafting from the southeast, so that he reminded the soldiers around him: "Stay away from the water, unless you think you have the skills of a young master, or the crocodile from East Africa, as soon as it jumps up, you see it, and you are finished." ”

The smell of blood tends to provoke all kinds of beasts at night, especially in the rainforest, and what he said is not without reason.

But after a while, Cao Jixiang's worry became unnecessary.

Because the gunshots rang out, the orderly gunshots were mixed with the sound of "reloading magazines" from time to time, the screams of the rainforest, the neighing of war horses, the frightened running of small beasts, and the sound of resident birds flapping their wings. Under this violent sound, there will be no muzzle flames lit up in the rainforest from time to time, orange fireworks, clusters of flashes, white smoke when black powder is fired, making this fire seem more mysterious and unpredictable, like fireworks brought by the arrival of a demon god.

It's not Cao Jixiang's illusion, just now, it's the smell of blood.

Experienced scouts, who don't shoot noisily, will stab sentinels in the heart from behind, and even when conditions allow, paste is a handful of dirt to prevent the blood from spurting too quickly and attracting the attention of other sentinels; They will break the cervical vertebrae of the enemy guards with the crook of their arms, and let out a scream.

They are like ghosts, walking through the night, harvesting the lives of the opponent's periphery, such as disassembling layers of armor.

When a qiē is ready, the gunshots will be fired and the grenades will be thrown, and the qiē will actually be a foregone conclusion at this point.

Liu Tie has been with Ding for ten years, and in his bones, he always has some inheritance and imprint of Ding Yi.

It may not necessarily be good, but at least, it is bloody that is hot and hot. (A good event for pie in the sky, cool mobile phones are waiting for you!)
