Back in the 1980s, hiking in the mountains was also a way of life

Chapter 553 The more I talk, the more frightened I feel. The more I listen, the more uncomfortable I feel.

As soon as Wang An's words came out, everyone was stunned for a moment.

Immediately afterwards, four big words were written on everyone’s faces: “unbelievable”.

However, looking at Wang An's face full of seriousness and solemnity, everyone knew that Wang An was not joking.

Then, everyone's expressions became very complicated, some were afraid, some were horrified, some were angry, and some had faces full of icy murderous intent.

Of course, everyone has doubts.

After all, in this deep forest, it can be said that apart from them, no one else has been seen. But Wang An said that they were being targeted by "someone"!

Isn't this a bit too incredible?

The key point is, where are the ordinary people among the crowd?
Zhang Shuya and Wang Shuai were both real fighters on the battlefield. Sun Nian, Wu Dong and the other four were all veterans. Feng Chengmin was an old hunter who had been roaming the mountains and forests for more than a decade and remained safe and sound.

Only Mu Xueli and Wang Li were slightly less vigilant, but that was only because they were young and inexperienced.

You know, they have been following Wang An in the mountains for such a long time, and now they can stand on their own.

But no one noticed the person who was following them!
Besides, in this era, it is not an easy task to go deep into the mountains and forests for more than 200 miles.

If there is a horse, it will take at least two or three days. If you only rely on your own two legs, four or five days or five or six days is normal.

Some people may say, under normal circumstances, a person can walk more than ten miles in an hour, and the total distance is only more than 200 miles, how can it be so slow?
In fact, the reason is very simple. The more than 200 miles here refers to the straight-line distance.

Whenever you encounter a large ditch or steep mountain that is impossible to cross, or very dense woods and bushes, you have to take a detour.

But taking a detour is something that only requires a simple detour, and several or even dozens of miles of road will be lost.

If you are unlucky, it is not impossible that you will walk dozens of miles in vain. Besides, it is almost common knowledge that mountain roads are difficult to walk on.

From this we can see that who would have nothing better to do than to come to a place like this to suffer?

So, where do people come from?

After everyone looked at each other, Feng Chengmin frowned and asked:

"What's going on? Xiao An, please tell me."

After Feng Chengmin finished speaking, everyone looked at Wang An with puzzled eyes.

Upon hearing this, Wang An chewed the pancake in his mouth twice more and swallowed it. Then he began to tell everyone what he had seen and heard on this trip.

After Wang An finished speaking, no one cared about the gold, and everyone frowned because of the depression.

Wu Dong asked:

"Xiao An, can you still remember the personnel layout of that place?"

Wang An thought for a moment and replied:
"I'm sure I can, but I don't know if there are still people hiding in the dark who I haven't discovered yet."

The reason why Wang An said this was because the two men named "Sixth Brother" and "Haozi" looked like the kind of people who were specifically responsible for the periphery.

After all, a mining-stealing team like the one in the potholes is already a very powerful and large-scale team.

In a team this large, it is impossible that there are no people who are always in the dark. Zhang Shuya said:
"It's fine as long as we can remember the general idea. At least we are not blind. You can draw a distribution map later and we can study it together."

Wang An said as he ate:
"Well, you guys should check the weapons and equipment first, and take back the box of grenades and the box of bullets. After I finish eating, we have to figure out how to deal with them."

After Wang An finished speaking, everyone nodded and walked out.

The reason why Wang An said to take back the grenades and bullets was because these two things were not placed in the tent, but hidden in the bushes.

The grenades and bullets carried by everyone were only a small part. After all, these things were not light, and carrying them all day would delay work.

In fact, the reason why the grenades and bullets were hidden was that we didn't want these things to become supplies for the enemy in case of an emergency.

You have to know that when we were fighting the Japanese back then, if it weren’t for Zhang Paopao, we would have left a large number of planes, tanks, guns and ammunition for the Japanese.

The anti-Japanese war in Northeast China would definitely not be so difficult!
So since then, this behavior of never aiding the enemy has been engraved in the hearts of almost every Northeasterner.

Because these things are lessons learned at the cost of human lives.

A few minutes later, Wang An finished eating, and everyone came back carrying grenades and bullets.

Immediately afterwards, everyone began to equip themselves. To put it simply, they loaded bullets into the spare magazines, and then carried the magazines filled with bullets and grenades on their bodies.

After getting ready, everyone gathered together automatically.

Wang An picked up a small stick and began to explain and draw on the ground.

Wang An drew the locations of the two machines and the tent halfway up the mountain, as well as the only two roads leading from the bottom of the pothole to the halfway up the mountain, in great detail.

Wang An hadn't thought much about it before, but now that he was explaining it to everyone, it helped him consolidate his thoughts.

However, during the explanation, Wang An became more and more frightened and worried.

Of course, everyone else wasn't in a much better mood either. The more they listened, the more uncomfortable they felt, and their brows furrowed more and more.

The reason why Wang An and others did this was because everyone discovered that the structure and population distribution of this pothole-ridden area seemed nothing special at first glance, and it was just an ordinary place.

But if you just think about it a little bit, that is, think about where is the most appropriate position to attack, you will immediately find that this place is like a turtle shell, making it impossible to know where to start.

I have to say, in order to control the laborers, these miners transformed the potholes in a pretty amazing way.

If the laborers wanted to escape, they could either go up through those two roads, or run from the top of the hill after enduring the bullets fired from the tent.

Either jump into the lake and then swim out from upstream or downstream of the river.

But the prerequisite is that you have to hold your breath for a long time, and you have to avoid several river-blocking nets or barbed wire fences upstream or downstream.

The reason why this place is like a turtle shell, with nowhere to eat, is because of the locations of these tents.

The geographical location of these tents not only allows a view of the bottom of the pothole, thus protecting the laborers, but also allows a view of the surrounding mountaintops where the pothole is located.

In other words, the people in these tents can support each other, and if any tent is attacked, the people in other tents can help.

Obviously, although everyone has not raised any questions yet, they are all aware of this problem!
