Chapter 18 Mercenaries (2)
The old man sighed softly and said with a wry smile: "It's fine if you can't say it, I believe you and those gangsters are not in the same group."

Li Weiguo felt a little relieved that the old man could believe in himself. He picked up his weapon and said to the old man, "This is not a place to talk. Let's talk in another place."

The old man thought for a while and said, "Okay, come with me."

Li Weiguo followed the old man around the primeval forest for more than half an hour, and the sky was completely dark. Finally, the two came to an old tree with a tree house built on it, which seemed to be the old man's resting place.

"There are traps I set up all around, so it's considered safe here." The old man said, then stared at Li Weiguo without saying a word, waiting for Li Weiguo to tell him something on his own initiative.

"Master, do you have a problem with those drug dealers?" Li Weiguo asked.

As soon as this word was mentioned, the old man's eyes showed fierceness, his face was full of hatred, he nodded heavily, and said in a deep voice: "I have a sworn feud with those bastards!"

Li Weiguo was suddenly full of curiosity about the hatred between the old man and the drug dealer, and asked in surprise, "Master, can you tell me? Maybe I can help you."

"These bastards!" The old man first cursed viciously, and then asked Li Weiguo, "Do you know the name of the leader of those people just now?"

Li Weiguo shook his head and said he didn't know.

"Dadahar, nicknamed 'Vicious Dog'!" The old man's breathing became heavy, obviously he hated this guy named Dadahar very much.

"Dadahal." Li Weiguo said softly. This was the first time he knew the name of his enemy, and he kept it in his heart. He looked at the old man, thinking about the relationship between this guy named Dadahal and the old man. There must be some story.

"That's right." The old man replied, "What a bastard! I used to be a resident of this neighborhood. I have a son, a daughter, and an old woman. Although the four of us live in poverty, we are very happy, but It all changed a year ago. That bastard is the guy named Dadahar! A year ago he brought people to transport drugs and had a firefight with the border guards. Then he fled to my house, not only ruined my daughter, but also Killed my old woman and son who wanted to stop his atrocities, and I... my daughter also passed away in resentment!"

Li Weiguo saw that the old man became more and more excited, so he interrupted the old man and asked, "Then how did you survive?"

"Me?" The old man twitched his nose slightly, "I just went out to sell animal skins that day, if... If I hadn't gone out, that bastard would have died in my hands!"

Li Weiguo sighed softly, it seems that the old man has been blaming himself, wanting to avenge his family but unable to do so.Hearing the brutality of those drug dealers, Li Weiguo became more determined to get rid of these drug dealers, and softly comforted the old man: "Don't be sad, someone will take care of them!"

The old man seemed to have noticed something suddenly. He stared at Li Weiguo and asked, "You don't look like border guards. Why did you appear here? Is it because of those drug dealers?"

Li Weiguo thought for a while, the old man was of great help to him, but if he wanted to get help from the old man, he couldn't hide everything from the old man.He nodded and replied: "I'm here for those drug dealers. I can only tell you this, I hope you don't ask about us anymore, I have already said what I can't say!"

"I know, I know!" The old man looked a little excited, even with a smile on his face, and said excitedly, "It's really great, those days of shit seem to be over!"

"Master, I hope you can help me." Li Weiguo said in a timely manner.

"Yeah!" The old man nodded vigorously, "How do you want me to help you? As long as I can kill those bastards, Dadahar, that vicious dog, even my life is fine. !"

"It's not that serious!" Li Weiguo smiled lightly, and then asked, "Master, you said you are a resident nearby, I think you must know the situation here very well."

"I've lived here since I was a child, and even with my eyes closed, I can know the location of every tree and every stone!" The old man said confidently, "Oh, by the way, don't always call me uncle Oh, it sounds awkward. My name is Hu Dezhi, you can just call me by my name!"

Li Weiguo smiled. The old man seemed to be his grandfather's generation. It was not good to call the other party's name directly. He thought for a while and said, "Well, how about I call you Uncle Hu?"

"Uncle Hu, please be Uncle Hu!" The old man waved his hand, as if unwilling to delve into this issue, he asked eagerly, "What do you want me to do?"

"Do you know the terrain outside the country?" Li Weiguo asked tentatively.

"You're asking me if I know anything about the lairs of those drug dealers, right?" Hu Dezhi asked.

"En." Li Weiguo nodded in response, looking at Hu Dezhi expectantly.

Hu Dezhi said in a deep voice: "Although I live right next to the border, I have never crossed the border before. It's just..." He changed his subject when he said this, "Since Dadahar brought those dog days of destruction After I lost my family, I managed to cross the border a few times, and I have a good understanding of the situation there."

Hearing this, Li Weiguo took out his map and put it in front of Hu Dezhi, saying: "Uncle Hu, please mark the situation of the enemy on the map for me, and I promise I will find a way to help you kill those drug dealers in Dadahar of!"

"This..." Hu Dezhi pondered for a while, at this moment he suddenly became hesitant, staring at Li Weiguo and asked, "How many people do you have?"

Li Weiguo suppressed the joy in his heart, shook his head and replied: "I'm sorry, I can't tell you this."

"Ten? Twenty? Or thirty?" Hu Dezhi continued to ask, seeing that Li Weiguo still didn't answer, he continued, "A year ago, there were not many people in Dadahar, but with this He has been fighting against the border guards for a year, and he has also expanded his team, and there are no fewer than fifty people under him!"

"Fifty people?" Li Weiguo was a little surprised, the number of people was a bit different from what he had imagined.

"That's just an ordinary thug recruited by Dadahar. In addition, he also hired more than 20 mercenaries. With the support of these mercenaries, he is selling drugs more and more recklessly. It is very difficult to get close to him!" Hu Dezhi continued to preach.

"Mercenaries?" Li Weiguo snorted lightly. At this moment, he thought of the black man and the white man who escaped earlier. They should be the mercenaries Hu Dezhi mentioned.

Although Li Weiguo had no contact with mercenaries before, he had a certain understanding of mercenaries.Not all mercenaries are composed of a group of rabble as most people think. There are also military geniuses in the mercenary army. Many special forces join the mercenary army after retiring, thus creating a very powerful mercenary army.

If Dadahar invited a mercenary group composed of ordinary outlaws, then forget it, but if he invited a world-renowned mercenary group, it would be troublesome.

Most of the mercenaries in the well-known mercenary regiment are from special forces. Even if they are not from special forces, they have undergone rigorous training and have quite a lot of actual combat experience. People like Li Weiguo who have no actual combat experience want to compete with these mercenaries. The task is difficult.

"What a fucking trouble!" Li Weiguo cursed secretly, remembering the actions of the two mercenaries, he judged that they could never be just ordinary desperadoes.

Hu Dezhi pushed Li Weiguo's map back, and said in a deep voice, "I won't tell you about those people unless I personally take you there!"

"No!" Li Weiguo replied, he looked into Hu Dezhi's eyes, and from the hesitation in his eyes just now, he should have guessed that he wanted to go there with him.According to what Hu Dezhi said, Guangda Dahal has more than 50 subordinates. In addition, he also hired some mercenaries. It can be said that it is a bit reluctant to go there for reconnaissance. If Hu Dezhi is brought along, it will be even more troublesome. .

Hu Dezhi looked indifferent, and said to Li Weiguo: "Well, I think you should know how to leave here, please go ahead." He turned and left after speaking.

"Wait a minute!" Li Weiguo shouted.

"What, you changed your mind?" Hu Dezhi turned to look at Li Weiguo.

Li Weiguo looked a little heavy. He knew that Hu Dezhi was helpful to him. At the same time, he also knew that there was a deep hatred between Hu Dezhi and those drug dealers, and Hu Dezhi wanted to kill them all with his own hands.After thinking about it and weighing the pros and cons, Li Weiguo said in a deep voice: "I can let you go with me, but you must listen to me!"

"Don't worry about that!" Hu Dezhi smiled softly, and said as he walked towards Li Weiguo, "I'm not a three-year-old child, and I didn't cross the border once or twice. I killed one of them a few days ago. , I know how to take care of myself!"

"I still say that, you must listen to me!" Li Weiguo repeated the key point.

Hu Dezhi shrugged his shoulders and said softly: "You are a smart man, it is a wise choice to take me along, besides I am familiar with the road, I can also act as your translator!"

This is not bad. Li Weiguo can barely understand a little English, but those drug dealers can't understand a word. It would be great to have Hu Dezhi as an interpreter.Li Weiguo put away the map and said, "Okay, let's go now."

"Now, in such a hurry?" Hu Dezhi looked at Li Weiguo unexpectedly.

"Why, is there something wrong?" Li Weiguo asked.

"I had a fight with those guys just now, and you killed so many of them. Now is the time for them to be heavily guarded. If possible, I hope to go there in two days!" Hu Dezhi replied.

Li Weiguo shook his head and said, "No! I don't have that much time, so I have to go now!"

"Alright then." Hu Dezhi thought for a while and said, "Wait here for me."

Seeing that Hu Dezhi turned around and climbed up the tree house, Li Weiguo came down again not long after. In addition to the AK47 rifle he picked up from the drug dealer earlier, Hu Dezhi also had a machete and some homemade bombs on him. It seems that he It's going to have a big fight with those drug dealers in Dadahar.

"Can we go?" Li Weiguo asked.

"Well, come with me." Hu Dezhi said and walked ahead to lead the way for Li Weiguo.

Li Weiguo followed Hu Dezhi and stopped not far away. He took out the map and looked at it, and asked Hu Dezhi, "Did we go to the wrong place?" Then he showed Hu Dezhi the map, "Look, the road we're walking now deviates from the one marked on the map, so we'll go a long way!"

Hu Dezhi didn't look at the map, but rolled his eyes at Li Weiguo and said, "Do you believe in me or the map?"

Li Weiguo looked at Hu Dezhi with fixed eyebrows.

"If you believe me, then put away your broken map." Hu Dezhi said, "Do you think the drug dealers don't know the route marked on the map? I'm taking you on a small road, although it is the same as the route marked on the map. The route is a bit farther than it is, but it is safer, we will go directly behind the old den of Dadahar!"

"Okay, let's go." Li Weiguo said.

Hu Dezhi continued to lead the way, and Li Weiguo did not put away the map. He marked their walking route on the map as he walked, in case he would get lost.

The route marked on the map in Li Weiguo's hand is a small road that can avoid the border guards of the two countries, but Hu Dezhi said that it is not a small road.The small road that Hu Dezhi said was not actually a road. Li Weiguo only felt that he was being led around in this virgin forest. If he hadn't marked the walking route on the map, he might have lost his way already.

After walking for nearly two hours, and crossing a swamp, Hu Dezhi suddenly stopped and pointed to Li Weiguo, "Did you see the mountain in front of you? As long as you climb over that mountain We have arrived at Dahal's old den."

Li Weiguo looked forward, and could only vaguely see a big black shadow in the distance. After wearing night vision goggles, he could see that it was a mountain.

"Let's continue walking." Li Weiguo said.

After walking another distance, Hu Dezhi, who was walking in front, stopped suddenly, and Li Weiguo hid vigilantly, staring ahead.

There was a torch shaking in front of him, and he approached Li Weiguo.

Li Weiguo held his gun tightly, preparing for a big battle that might come at any time.

There are ten enemies in total, each of them is fully armed, as if they are searching for something.

Li Weiguo glanced at Hu Dezhi, seeing that he was so excited that he wanted to shoot, he hastily pressed the muzzle of his gun, shook his head lightly, and turned to stare at the enemy opposite.

The enemy did not find Li Weiguo, turned around and left at a distance of more than 20 meters, and finally disappeared into the forest.

"Huh!" Hu Dezhi breathed out.

"Those people just now are drug dealers?" Li Weiguo asked.

Hu Dezhi nodded: "Yes, they are in charge of patrolling. It's really strange. There has never been anyone patrolling here before. Why is there suddenly someone patrolling today?"

"It may be that we exchanged fire with those guys before, so they strengthened their defense." Li Weiguo said, "Let's go."

Hu Dezhi got up and continued to walk forward.

Half an hour later, Li Weiguo and Hu Dezhi came to the foot of the mountain, to be precise, at the bottom of the cliff. There are no roads around, only a towering cliff.

Hu Dezhi glanced at the cliff and asked Li Weiguo, "Are you afraid?"

Li Weiguo looked up, the cliff was very steep, it was difficult to find a place to step down, and he had already seen that Hu Dezhi wanted to climb over here.

"What's there to be afraid of?" Li Weiguo replied casually.

"Just don't be afraid." Hu Dezhi said, glanced up again, took out a rope more than ten meters long from his body, handed one end to Li Weiguo and said, "Tie it around your waist, and you can see that my hands and feet are falling. Don't make a mistake about where it is, or both of us may die here!" He tied the other end around his waist as he spoke.

"Okay." Li Weiguo said after tying the rope.

"Be careful." Hu Dezhi instructed, and climbed up the cliff first, followed by Li Weiguo.

Although Hu Dezhi is much older than Li Weiguo, his movements are very agile, climbing up the cliff is as easy as a monkey.On the contrary, Li Weiguo, who has not received much training in unarmed climbing, seemed to be struggling. Hu Dezhi often had to stop and wait halfway to keep up, and the rope tied around their waists became their only safety measure.

"Boom! Papa..."

There was a sudden explosion at a distance of 30 meters from the top of the cliff, followed by the sound of fierce firefights.

"What's going on?" Hu Dezhi lowered his head and asked Li Weiguo behind him.

It's the warriors and they fought the enemy.Li Weiguo thought to himself, from the voice sounded some distance from them, Li Weiguo was a little surprised that Warrior Ben and others fought against the enemy so quickly.

Seeing that Li Weiguo didn't reply, Hu Dezhi asked again: "Hey, are you okay?"

"It's okay." Li Weiguo shook his head, "Let's continue."

Hu Dezhi looked at Li Weiguo, turned back and continued to climb to the top of the cliff, and when he reached the top of the cliff, he whispered to Li Weiguo: "Be careful, there are many traps here!"

Maybe it's because this side is a cliff, and those drug dealers don't think it's necessary to guard against it; or maybe it's because the drug dealers have limited manpower and don't want to waste their troops here.At first glance, these traps were set by soldiers who had undergone strict military training. Hu Dezhi seemed helpless in the face of these traps, but Li Weiguo had plenty of solutions.

In order to save time, Li Weiguo did not destroy all the traps set by the enemy, but only destroyed some relatively simple traps, allowing two people to pass through.
