Chapter 958: Barracks

At the top of the cliff, there was clearly a tent built with a lot of rattan and branches on the outside, and a layer of tree trunks on top of the skeleton, forming a larger tent.

This kind of thing usually looks very nondescript, but here, due to the dim light and the strange growth of the surrounding trees, the roots of some trees form a plate shape and grow on the ground, making the surrounding terrain more complex and undulating. Such a thing is sandwiched between several trees, and with the dim light, it is really difficult to find such a thing here from a distance.

Because there is a layer of tent inside, plus the skeleton and camouflage made of tree branches on it, even if it rains, the inside of the tent will not get wet, and as long as you sit in the tent, you can do what a dark sentry can do. It's just that the entrance and exit of this tent seem to be only one, and there is no open vision window or exit towards his side, so he is behind this, let alone camouflaged, even if he stands up and walks behind it now, the people inside may not be aware of themselves behind him, right?

Zhang Tianhai thought for a long time before finally speaking: "Let's leave him alone, don't alarm the soldiers inside, we are hiding on the other side." ”

As he spoke, Zhang Tianhai pointed to the other side of the tent. There is a large tree growing there, and the roots of the tree have grown out of the ground, and the area is not small. If a few of your own people lie down here, you won't be able to see your own people here in the tent at all. The roots of the tree had grown to the side of the cliff, and I don't know how long it had gone, but looking at the size of the tree's crown, I could roughly guess how big the roots of the big tree would be.

The team slowly moved to the back of the tree, and everyone sat up, breathing a sigh of relief.

The roots of the big tree provide themselves with very good cover. The people over there can't see what's going on on their side at all. There was no garbage thrown away around, and there were traces of human passing, so it means that the other party has not been to this place. This news can be said to be the best, which means that you can stay here for a long time, and basically will not be exposed.

You can see the general situation of the barracks from behind the roots of the trees, and there are not many places that are blocked by plants. The soldiers inside had cleared all the trees and plants in the center of the barracks. A large area was left for the construction of various buildings. And because this place is too rugged and difficult to navigate, so that all kinds of building materials can not be transported from the outside world in large quantities, so there are very few concrete buildings, you can only see two buildings, and it is a one-story house, which does not occupy a large area, and the others are basically wooden houses made of wood. Here, you can see a lot of soldiers still doing their activities. Some of them are still eating, and some of them are just working.

But after watching it for a while, Zhang Tianhai easily found something not quite right.

In front of these soldiers, in front of some wooden houses that were being built, Zhang Tianhai saw a lot of people in tattered clothes, and there were hardly any strips of cloth on their bodies, in the midst of the whipping of some soldiers. It's hard to build a house.

Zhang Tianhai immediately understood the identities of these people.

Local villagers!

Yes, there was a lot of friction between the local villagers and the Japanese troops who had just entered the forest. Although the Japanese troops suffered heavy casualties, the casualties among the villagers were even heavier. They don't have guns in their hands, and even if they are familiar with the terrain, can they be opponents of thermal weapons?

In addition to the heavy casualties, many people were captured alive in this way. And these captured villagers. Naturally, he became the simplest and best slave of the Japanese army.

Without any weapons, they were no match for the Japanese soldiers, and they had no way to eat enough for several days, so they didn't have much strength, and there was no room for resistance. Under beatings and swearing. The Japanese soldiers urged these people to build houses, although there were not many people, but at least they saved a lot of soldiers' effort, and the efficiency of building houses became slightly higher.

Zhang Tianhai frowned. It is foreseeable that after this military camp is completely built, what awaits these villagers will definitely be death.

But now I see that this barracks is far from being completed, so I will definitely not be able to see it that day. But with such an overload of work every day, they must be unbearable, and the final end is only to die of exhaustion.

Seeing this, Zhang Tianhai decided that his speed had to be slightly accelerated. The faster you can complete your mission, the more you can indirectly save a lot of people, and if you are a day late, you may die a group of people, and then there will be not enough slaves, and I wonder if these Japanese troops will go out and take the initiative to arrest the local villagers, so that there will be more deaths.

In addition to these, the location of this barracks is also relatively good. You can see that there are roads leading to the outside world on all sides of the barracks, and the two roads close to you are relatively narrow and completely accessible to people, while the other two roads leading to the distance are very wide. Of these two roads, one is paved with stone slabs and stones, and some vehicles are not a problem at all. The other road, though wide enough for cars to pass through, was now covered with mud, with branches and leaves, and puddles of water, making it even more muddy.

At this time, on this road, a jeep seemed to be about to enter the barracks, but on the road it was stuck in the mud tires, and it was impossible to advance or retreat, and several soldiers were busy in the front and back of the car, struggling to push the car out, making it muddy and watery.

In the interior of the barracks, there is also a pool of slate and stones. Zhang Tianhai doesn't know where the water source of this pool is, or it is directly connected to the rainwater to use, but this pool is really large, there is a lot of water in it now, and it looks relatively clear, eating water, as well as domestic water, basically using the water of this pool, and the bathhouse is next to it, a large wooden board encloses a bathhouse, and several water pipes are connected to a water pump, which is pumped from the pool and sent into the bathhouse.

It seems that life in this barracks is a little harder, and if you look at it with a telescope, you can see that many soldiers have an irritable feeling on their faces. But it is clear that there are some areas where the soldiers are quite calm and do not have any dissatisfaction with the environment.

It seems that the troops here are not monolithic, there are ordinary troops, and there are also some elite troops, which can be regarded as a mixed army. As long as there is a clear division of labor, such a unit will have good combat effectiveness, whether it is offensive or defensive, and as long as the commander can assign each unit to suitable posts, its combat effectiveness will not be reduced because of the mixing of soldiers.

Later, Yang Hao and the others were probably on guard nearby and ready to rest, leaving only Zhang Tianhai and Wei Gong to guard and reconnoiter first, and the others were disguised, so they lay on the ground and fell asleep.

Everyone shrank together, leaving a place for Zhang Tianhai and Wei Gong. Even if someone comes over and Zhang Tianhai and Wei Gong fill this vacancy, then the camouflage on everyone's bodies will be connected together to form a relatively large camouflage grass. As long as you don't come over and shoot or stab you, you basically can't see any flaws, after all, the silhouette of a person is not so big, just take a look, even if you get closer, the flaws will not be so obvious.

When hidden, there aren't as many dangers around you as there were before. And on top of this cliff, a very strange situation has also been formed.

The secret sentinels of the Japanese troops were scouting their own things over there, and Zhang Tianhai and others, who were not far from them, were also observing the information they wanted. Both sides can be said to be their own targets that need to be observed, but the distance is so close that the dark sentry can't detect the existence of the Black Saber Squad, and the two sides have entered a very strange state of peace and quiet.

In two days, everyone also mastered a lot of rules. The shift was eight in the morning, four in the afternoon, and twelve in the evening, for three eight-hour shifts. There are three people in each class, and there is no gap between each other's succession, but when they take over, there are more of them, and they are more easily exposed. The people in there generally do not come out, only when they urinate, they will occasionally come out, find a big tree to relieve themselves, and then continue to get into it and continue their reconnaissance.

The troops below, every day, do the same, build houses, patrol, and occasionally see troops arriving at the barracks from outside, but most of them leave here that day and go in the other direction. Some troops also leave behind the necessary daily necessities and weapons and equipment in the barracks when they pass by. Although there is not a lot to bring, the consumption here is mainly food, water, ammunition and so on, which is not very lacking.

And there is also a special hunting team in the barracks, which goes out to hunt large beasts, which can also relieve some of the pressure on food in the barracks. However, there are so many people here that the food brought by hunting is still not enough, and most of them still have to rely on food sent from the outside world to survive.

So far, no one can see the actual significance of this barracks. The environment here is too poor, which means that the defense is not strong, but because of the surrounding environment, it is particularly troublesome to attack yourself. There is no modern base around, don't think about the missile launch site, and the cantonment station is not like it, such a harsh environment, it is easy to be unadaptable, and at the moment these people are almost the limit of the number of people in the barracks, no matter how much, food alone will be a problem.
