Lord Helanza

The warriors of the fourth battlement have been walking in the jungle for most of the day. They didn't meet a native, and Baron Sidney's face became more and more gloomy.

The team stopped by the river in the valley, and Baron Sidney summoned the non-commissioned officers above Small Captain for preliminary combat deployment.

The rest of the heavy-armored infantry drew some water from the river and lighted a fire on the rocky beach to cook.

The teams that go out on missions are all carrying very simple marching rations. He Boqiang has been eating this food these days. This is a food similar to rice noodles, which can be quickly melted into boiling water and cooked. Make a pot of porridge, and then eat it into your stomach with hard baked oatmeal. If you think the oatmeal is too hard, you can break it up and put it in the porridge for soaking.

It's not unpalatable, but it's definitely not delicious, it's purely a convenient fast food for filling your stomach quickly.

Every marching ration is wrapped in dry banana leaves. When taking it, just tear the banana leaves apart.

Jeronnan scooped a spoon of sticky porridge into a wooden bowl, staring straight at the porridge in the bowl without appetite, but Ian, who was sitting on the side, was eating with keen interest pleasure. At the end of the meal, even scrape the edge of the wooden bowl with your fingers.

As five scouts squad left in a row, the atmosphere in the battallion became tense, and no one even talked loudly.

He Boqiang didn't feel that this kind of marching ration was too unpalatable. He silently finished the food delivered to his hands and relied on sitting next to a large rock with his eyes closed.

The black boy Jeronnan refilled the marching kettle from the stream with clear water.

Surdak squatted by the fire and pressed the unburned charcoal with stones. Garcia approached him and asked curiously:

"Duck, you said Baron Sidney summoned Captain and they wanted to discuss it?"

Garcia is also the second squad member, but everyone prefers to call him red socks because he has a pair of red socks that he wears all year round. Although the soles of the feet have been patched, he still reluctant to throw them away. It is said that Fiancee personally knit the socks for him when he joined the army.

He is the best person in the arrow technique in the squad. There are two alloy bows in the squad, one of which is on him.

Surdak turned his head and glanced at Garcia, and said:

"Who knows! But it is still far from the mountain col, so I don’t have to worry about being darkened by the native hunters for the time being. In a sneak attack, it’s easier to be in a large unit than to act on his own."

At this time, Captain Sam walked back from Baron Sidney, he sat down against the rock, and Jeronnan immediately ran back to stay here. The food that came down was handed to Captain.

After the porridge in the wooden bowl was cold, it condensed. Sam pushed the wooden bowl aside, grabbed half of the wheat cracker and gnawed it.

Surdak said: "I always feel that something is wrong. Next section of the road, we have to be careful."

Sam tore off another piece of wheat cake, but nothing Anxious to put it in his mouth, he asked Surdak: "What's wrong?"

Surdak took a look at He Boqiang, and then slowly said, "I think these indigenous people seem to be leading us over."

Sam groaned for a while, without speaking.

It was Ian who said next to him: "This time our 4th Battallion is fully deployed, and we have seconded a long archer from platoon, which is more than enough to deal with those natives. There is nothing to worry about."

Jeronnan and Garcia and the others clearly agreed with Ian's point of view, and they echoed repeatedly, believing that Ian was right.

At this time, He Boqiang seemed to lift the head. He always felt that someone was peeping through the dense woods. At this time, he couldn't find any convincing evidence.

……

After resting for nearly an hour, the fourth battallion continued to march along the jungle towards Dashan Col.

In the afternoon, there are not too many wild beasts in the forest, but some poison insects occasionally cause some trouble to the team, but almost everyone of the warriors carry antidote with them, and the team has not been attenuated due to poisoning.

At this time of the day, the woodland always makes people feel sultry.

The team stretched a long way in the woodland, and the road was not easy to walk. The woods were full of dead branches and leaves left over the years. These leaves will become fertile leaf soil when they rot, but There are also some leaves that fall into naturally formed deep pits. Withered yellow leaves fill up these deep pits and become many natural traps.

A heavily loaded warrior was walking in the team. He just looked up and saw an azure snake crawling out of his head. The azure snake was wrapped around the horizontal branch and kept spitting out snake letters, a pair of cold ice With his eyes staring down, the team passed under the horizontal branch where it lived, and the azure snake drooped with a poisonous salivation. The warrior was taken aback by the azure snake.

I was thinking about whether to issue a warning to the companions behind, I heard the companions behind shouting: "Hey, be careful..."

The words are not finished yet, then The warrior stepped on the air, his body fell forward according to inertia, and plunged into the deep pit filled with dead leaves.

Fortunately, there are thick dead leaves piled up under the deep pit, and there is nothing else. The warrior was reloaded and pulled out of the deep pit by the companions, but there was no serious injury. But my ankle twisted...

The team passed by a man-eating tree full of sharp thorns. The man-eating tree waved its vines, and the heavy Armored Soldier who couldn't react in the future. The soldiers entangled and dragged them to the trunk. If they were not for the help of their companions, they would not be able to break free with their own strength.

After entering the jungle, such accidents always happen frequently, which invisibly slows down the marching speed.

……

It wasn't until the sky was about to get dark that the fourth battallion arrived in the big mountain col where the native hunters were hiding. By the evening glow, I saw one vaguely The bare white rock stone wall appeared on the west side of the valley. According to the intelligence previously investigated by Jeronnan, the group of indigenous hunters hid here.

Baron Sidney asked the fourth battallion to stop and fix it. After nightfall, he carried out a sneak attack on the group of native hunters.

The five scout squad that left the main unit at noon returned one after another, and Baron Sidney once again called a meeting with non-commissioned officers above the Small Captain level.

The camp is stationed on a forest slope in the big mountain col, not too far from the valley in the mountain col.

The dinner also appeared to be much richer. There was a scout squad who was specially responsible for hunting. He brought back two wild boars from the forest. The dinner consisted of wild pork with some wild celery and white bread. According to Surdak Said that Baron Sidney would give the warriors a good meal every time before the war, and it seems that this time is no exception.

The horn of battle blew at the moment when the sky was completely dark.

The second squad followed the large forces to smear and came to the bottom of the cliff. Below the cliff there is only a cave for one person to pass. Climb up this rock tunnel for about two hundred meters to reach the natural cave in the center of the cliff. Here, as long as there are two or three people stationed at the exit above the cave, they can guard the passage.

Baron Sidney left the first platoon here to guard the exit here, and then personally took the fourth battallion taking advantage of the night to climb the mountain, according to Lord Baron’s plan, after assaulting the squad to the top of the mountain , The rope is to be lowered from the top of the mountain, and the warriors will hang along the rope to the mountainside and sneak in through the vents between the mountainside.

This area is full of cliffs. If you want to climb this cliff, you have to go to the back of the col.

The mountain road at night is more difficult to walk, Baron Sidney had to give up riding, and followed the battallion on foot to climb the mountain.

He Boqiang followed the team, feeling uneasy for no reason.

After nightfall, there was some faint fire on the cliff halfway up the mountain. It is not difficult to see that people were actually living on the cliff, but it seemed that these indigenous people were so calm and entered the fourth battallion. Along the mountain pass, there was no resistance from native at all, which made He Boqiang feel a little worried.
