Chapter 60 The Special Warfare Company Commander's Conjecture

Soon the blue soldiers turned on their flashlights to search for them. It was not until the blue army special warfare company commander ran over that he shouted, "Who told you to turn on the flashlights? Don't you think you're not conspicuous enough?"

The deputy company commander immediately explained the reason. After the company commander tried it, it was exactly as the deputy company commander said. It was too unsuitable to use night vision goggles in the forest.

Since this is the case, let’s use a flashlight. Anyway, we have a lot of people. We just need to find the traces of their progress and hunt them down. It’s better to have a light source to hunt them down.

But after the special warfare company commander called the platoon leader to inquire about the situation, the platoon leader actually reported: "Company commander, we are trying our best to find clues. I don't know how they ran. There are not many traces left during the march. It's a little hard to get up."

What?No trace left?

This is a forest area. When the branches are dense, you can't move forward without cutting the branches with a knife. Even if the branches are not so dense, you will always encounter hanging branches when you move forward.

The leaves under the branches must be damaged, the branches must be bent, how could there be no trace left?
Of course, the leader of the platoon knew the most basic hunting skills, but after searching around, he really didn't find any obvious traces of passing people in the surrounding branches.

"Reporting to the company commander, I am arranging people to search, and I believe that clues will be found."

At this moment, a corporal ran over, "Report to the platoon leader, we found a row of footprints, which are suspected to be left by the enemy."

After hearing this, the company commander immediately set off, "Take me there to have a look."

After arriving at the scene of the footprints, the special warfare company commander carefully observed the environment here, and he felt very strange that the branches here were all intact, not to mention that the branches were not twisted, and even the leaves on them were not damaged. drop.

Except for a few inconspicuous footprints, there were no traces of action.

This scene really terrified the special warfare company commander. Being able to have such a superb trace of action proved that they were very good at forest warfare, at least they couldn't do it themselves.

I am an old company commander with more than ten years of military experience. Could it be that Brigade A secretly sent a lot of elite soldiers to the service support battalion this time?
It shouldn't be, I know the brigade commander and deputy brigade commander of the A brigade quite well. They came here to participate in the exercise back then, and I was just a platoon leader who had just graduated from the military academy.

I have seen their methods by chance, especially the deputy brigade commander Meng, whether it is fighting or reconnaissance, he is a master, and even captured our brigade commander himself.

I also met him during the post-war inventory. Based on my feelings for him, Deputy Brigadier Commander Meng should absolutely disdain to do such a thing.

But this doesn't make sense, I absolutely don't believe that there will be three masters proficient in forest warfare in a small service support battalion.

Except for Deputy Brigadier Meng, the director who came out of the Special Forces Training Center, he didn't know who would come up with such a strong fighter.

If they were really brought by Deputy Brigadier Meng, let alone his special warfare company, even if they were from a battalion, it would be difficult to catch them in the vast forest.

But at this time, the special warfare company had already lost a squad, and he was really unwilling to continue chasing, but he was also afraid that allocating too many troops here would be in vain.But there are fewer troops, and they are afraid of being counter-killed.

Deputy Brigadier Meng's fierce man, he has trained people, I dare not guess how elite they are.

After thinking for a moment, the special warfare company commander arranged: "First platoon leader, the search task will be handed over to your platoon. Take the squad as the unit, divide it into three groups, and search along the footprints. The squads are not allowed to disperse, and the distance between each soldier cannot exceed two." Mi, the search time is three hours, once the time is up, bring it back immediately."

When the deputy company commander heard it, he left a platoon to search, isn't it a bit rare? "Company commander, do we have other missions? If other missions are urgent, I suggest that we withdraw from the pursuit and leave two people behind." The main road is under control, and everyone else is going to perform the task."

The company commander shook his head, "There are no other tasks, but we can't waste too much manpower and material resources. The physical exertion of chasing in the forest far exceeds that in the plains. Three hours of searching in a row is already their limit."

The deputy company commander snorted, "It turned out that the company commander wanted to fight with them, but yes, there are only three of them, and our three platoons will take turns to hunt them down, and the energy consumption will definitely kill them."

When the company commander heard this, he smiled wryly, "Don't have such good illusions, just rely on their escape methods. If we don't have any clues after three hours, we can conclude that we have completely lost our target."

"These people are not simple, and their strength has far exceeded our tracking level. If you waste too much time and energy on them, you will only be restrained by them."

The deputy company commander is quite aware of the company commander's strength, no one is easy to become the special warfare company commander, but these few people actually forced the company commander to say such dejected words, which is really unprecedented.

But soon, the deputy company commander was surprised by a row of reports. As the forest became more and more dense, there were still very few traces of the road ahead, and judging by the newness of the footprints, it showed that they Falling farther and farther.

If the hunt continues, I am afraid that there will be no gain in a few days.

The company commander saw that only an hour had passed, and the first platoon leader was about to give up the hunt. He couldn't help but sigh, it's not that we are useless, but that the enemy is too strong.

"Order the platoon leader to withdraw. We can only swallow the loss this time. It has lost the meaning of continuing to hunt."

At this time, Lin Yi had been running for an hour with the two of them, and the physical strength of the three of them was gradually exhausted. Even if Lin Yi had scouting skills and could always choose the optimal route, running for an hour was quite difficult even on flat ground. not easy.

After all, it takes only 17 minutes for the excellent line to travel five kilometers lightly.

If those two people hadn't known that there were hundreds of Blue Army soldiers chasing them behind them, they wouldn't have been able to run for an hour at all.

So while running, one of them accidentally tripped and didn't get up, lying on the ground motionless.

Lin Yi's physical fitness is four points, so the condition is not bad. The other corporal, who was not tripped, was panting heavily at this time, and felt that his lungs were about to explode. Every time he took a breath, the weak air was like Like a knife, the pierced chest was burning with pain.

Lin Yi asked the corporal to walk and rest for a while, and he immediately put the fallen man on the flat floor and rubbed his calf.

The physical fitness of the people in the combat team is still good. If they are tripped at this time, they are only exhausted. Resting for half an hour is enough to recover, but after running for an hour, they suddenly stop, and their legs and feet will definitely cramp. Lin Yi can do it The only thing I can do is to rub his legs and feet.

As for the physical strength and the lungs that are about to explode, they can only adjust slowly by themselves.
