under fire

Chapter 168 The Weird Fire

At the gate of death, what we have to think about is not the emptiness of life, but its importance——Socrates.

The mountain wind in summer is not as cold as it is biting, but it is equally gloomy and cold. There should be a crescent moon in the sky, but it cannot be seen. The dark clouds all over the sky reveal a dim gleam, which is of no use to the darkness in the mountains.

Shadowy, a team marched in the dark night, marched in the dark mountain wind, and marched in the danger of the dark mountain wind.

The team of less than [-] people stretched to about [-] to [-] meters, panting tiredly and not speaking, holding a long rope in their hands, the strong rope colluded with the whole team, and walked north step by step.

Turning around a cliff, the leader of the team, a black figure, stopped the progress.

In the dark night, the team had no way to dispatch leading soldiers. Because of his stop, the whole team stopped slowly. He looked into the darkness behind him: "Commander Hu, there seems to be a fire ahead!"

"I saw it." Hu Yi said coldly.

"Can you lend me your binoculars?" Liu Jin, the team leader, made a request in the dark.

On the top of Hu Yibending Mountain in the distance, there seems to be a little light of fire, which is not very clear, shrouded in mountain fog, people are in the mountain stream, can't see the top on both sides, sandwiched between two cliffs, looking around, it's all dark, surrounded by surrounded by darkness.

Hu Yi didn't speak. He took out the telescope from his bag and handed it forward. In the darkness where he couldn't see his fingers, he touched Liu Jin's back and was quickly ripped away.

Hu Yi didn't like the dark, but unfortunately, he had to march in the dark countless times, forcing him to adapt to the darkness, to march in the dark, to face danger in the dark.

After a long time, only in the dark night can I feel calm, like a fish in water, and gradually become a habit.

Before departure, the division did not give him a battle order. This kind of person is useless at all. The leaders are ready to face the cruel reality, but they just want to know how cruel it is. The division does not report greater hopes. Even for their reconnaissance, there is no hope.

Although Hu Yihe hated devils very much, hated such tasks even more, and was used to the dark night, he still hated the dark night in his heart.

Most of the time, Su Qing's cold smile is his destination. He knows that it is an extravagant hope, but he still has a little fantasy.

Thinking of Zhou Wanping's unobstructed smile, her satin-like body, in the darkness, no one could see the smile on her face, and her breathing became a little rough. Now that I am walking in the darkness like this, maybe, maybe someone is doing it for me. Caring, who knows?

They all have ideals, but they don't seem to have any, they just want to live, live simply, their ideals are great, maybe they infected themselves.

The task this time is reconnaissance, but if he really encounters the Eighth Route Army being chased by the devils, should he take action?
I don’t know what the bright light in the distance is. Naturally, it is unlikely that there will be a wildfire in the mountains in summer, so it must be someone. In the dark night, if you dare to light a strange fire in such a place, it must be impossible. For the Eighth Route Army, no one would be foolish enough to do such a death-seeking behavior that clearly exposes the target, so there is only one possibility left: devils.

Roughly thinking back, it has been half a month since I entered the mountain. It is very strange that all the people who entered the mountain this time were devils, not a single security force, not even a single one!Except for the group I brought with me, half a month ago it was still a team of the Security Army, so they should be considered the Eighth Route Army now.

I originally wanted to go to the teacher to see that silly woman when I entered the mountain, but I didn't expect that I missed it on the way. I was a little annoyed. Why was she transferred to another regiment, but it happened to be a supplementary regiment. Isn't the independent regiment more lacking? Manpower?

All this news came from Political Commissar Ding. Is it my turn to worry about Meixian's intelligence system?
Why did you think of her again!
Quickly come back to God.

The devils are still guarding here, which means that there is still the Eighth Route Army in the mountains, otherwise, the devils would not stay here.

Click—a crisp metallic sound, he habitually took out the pocket watch from his pocket, and pressed the case open.

In the dark, I can't see clearly, oh, I probably can't see it, only the coldness in the palm of my hand, and I can feel the clear rhythm of the subtle clicking sound.

"Fox, do you want to turn on the flashlight?" A childish voice said.

The girl who had been standing in the mountain wind for a long time and was impatient for a long time, finally heard the sound of the pocket watch being opened, and immediately couldn't help asking.

But there was no answer, and then, there was a sound: "Damn mule, you are so struggling to pull a flashlight."

"Grandma, wait a while, and put on a cloth."

A ray of light glowed in the darkness.

Immediately behind were two guides.

One of them was the girl from the guerrilla team. I couldn't help being surprised, this team is really amazing, and there are such advanced high-tech things!
He had already walked a long way, and he just pointed out how to get there. Almost two hours ago, he passed the fork in the road leading to the headquarters.

Up to now, I still think, the secret service company, isn’t that elite? The one at the front seems to be the squad leader of the secret service company, so why would he listen to the orders of the company commander Hu of the Independence Regiment?Hully?Company Commander Hu's name is Hu Li?
I often report to work. Of course, I know that in the Eighth Route Army, there is a unit called the Independent Company, which does not even have a serial number.

Obviously there is only one platoon member, but also a company commander, who looks like he has small feet and big shoes. Isn't he just looking for news, and I told him everything I know, so why do I need such a person?Are you going to fight, just a few people, are you here to be funny?
While thinking, there was another snap from the front, as if the case of the pocket watch was closed, and then a voice came: "Squad Leader Wang, what do you think is the origin of the fire on the hill?"

Regarding this question that he asked knowingly, squad leader Liu Jin obviously thought about it: "I... can't be sure, maybe the fire left by the devil has not been extinguished, maybe there are still devils on the mountain, but, I'm sure, it's impossible It's our people."

"How far is the distance?" Hu Yi asked again, his voice turned obviously, and he was asking the girl leading the way.

The girl was estimating in the dark, but she didn't know the location of the fire in the distance, the ghost knew where it was, she didn't know where it was, she couldn't even calculate the distance, she touched another person next to her, and that person didn't respond , embarrassingly did not answer.

Falling into silence, the girl was about to say that she didn't know.

"Estimated, about five miles away," someone replied, but it was an immature voice.

"Uh, you? Based on what judgment?" Hu Yi was a little surprised: what kind of trouble is this girl doing.

"My guess."

Hu Yi had black lines all over his face, he didn't ask any more questions, and he didn't expect anyone to answer. He put his pocket watch in his pocket, and just now, under the faint light of the flashlight, he saw the time on the dial, which was [-]:[-] in the morning.

"Go ahead and find a mountain with a high terrain. Everyone will rest. Chen Chong will be on guard. We will set off after dawn."

Hu Yi's consideration is very simple. According to his own feeling, the location of the fire should not be too far away. The fire is on the cliff. I heard the girl who led the way on the way say that the height of the cliff is by no means less than [-] meters. Vertical, it is impossible to attack at night.

It's better to wait until after dawn, even if it is a difficult mountain road, the journey will not exceed two hours at most. There is no need to really rush at night, and the weather is not very good. If it rains, you must prevent mountain floods.

"Send a report to the division, use common place names as code words, and invent codes. The political commissar in the division will definitely understand it."
