Chapter 1158 The decisive battle between Cao and Wei (7)(1/2)

"General Fu, smoke, there is smoke ahead."

Fu Hong was leaning on a tree stump, eating some kind of frog, and reading the telegrams received by the radio station.

They only dared to receive telegrams but did not dare to send them.

With the development of science and technology, especially the vigorous development of electromagnetism.

Now, technology has emerged to locate the source of high-power electromagnetic waves.

In a complex city, a large number of messages are generated, and it is very difficult to locate the specific location.

But in the uninhabited jungle, regular and frequent electromagnetic waves suddenly appeared. Everyone knew that this phenomenon was unusual.

Receive telegrams without revealing your location.

This is a new concept proposed by Empire, Radio Silence.

General Fu Hong can understand the world's plain code telegrams and Cao's universal code telegrams.

He knew that both Cao and Wei were waiting for a strategic turning point.

Cao State sent its navy to attack Wei's ports, but because it could not deal with Wei's submarines, it had to withdraw back into the country.

General Fu Hong doesn't know much about the navy, but he also knows some common sense about the navy.

Submarines are assassins hiding in the sea. Without sonar technology, the navy would suffer heavy losses in the face of the wolf pack tactics composed of submarines.

When General Fu Hong was looking through the telegrams he received, he suddenly heard the shouts of the messengers.

He immediately stood up in surprise and asked: "The smoke, is it really the smoke?"

After asking for specific information, he immediately picked up the telescope and looked in the direction pointed by the messenger.

Three streams of light smoke drifted in the sky five or six miles ahead.

General Fu Hong put down the telescope and said happily: "Great, today is September 2nd. It took us twenty-five days and nearly a month to finally get out of the rain forest."

General Fu Hong's anxious heart finally calmed down.

According to the original plan, they would spend ten days traveling through the rainforest.

As a result, after walking for more than 20 days, we still couldn't see the border of the rainforest.

General Fu Hong knew that he was heading in the wrong direction, but he had to move in the direction of the river.

He had already anticipated the dangers in the rain forest.

But when I really lived in the rainforest, I found that the dangers I had expected before were really insignificant compared to the real dangers of the rainforest.

The most dangerous situation in the rainforest is not the lack of food and drinking water, nor the encounter with large beasts.

Even if the army does not use guns and only uses bayonets, it can deal with large beasts.

What's more, in the rain forest, you can shoot without any scruples.

The real trouble in the rainforest is the countless poisonous insects.

Unknown poisonous insects, all kinds of strange locusts and mosquitoes.

With just one bite, a soldier would immediately become seriously ill or even die.

They found a large river in the rain forest and found that the direction of the river coincided with the direction they were heading.

I started to move along the river, but found that it was safer by the river.

There are many large beasts along the river, but all kinds of strange and poisonous insects are relatively rare.

They can also get enough food and water in the river.

General Fu Hong chose to continue crossing the rain forest in the established direction. Of the 3,000-man team, less than 500 people were able to cross the rain forest in the end.

Even if he finally discovered that the direction of the river was different from the direction they expected, he could only choose to follow the river.

His biggest goal is to lead the army into the territory of Wei State. The specific place in Wei State is not important.

Now that they see smoke, it proves that they have reached the edge of the rain forest and there are traces of human activities around them.

Even if they are not from the Wei State, they are local aborigines who were expelled to the rainforest to survive.

These indigenous people can survive in the rain forest, and their location is also on the edge of the rain forest.

General Fu Hong immediately led the army and marched towards the place where the smoke was.

When he saw the situation where the smoke was, the smile on his face became even stronger.

This is a logging camp dominated by the Wei State.

Several Han stewards are supervising the indigenous people to cut trees.

There are many such logging camps in Cao State.

Cut down the wood in the rainforest, dig out the roots and stones, and burn the weeds with fire.

This area became farmland that could be cultivated.

Cao and Wei added a lot of farmland every year, mostly through this method.

When General Fu Hong saw these people pioneering wasteland, he knew that he had passed through the rain forest.

People who open up wasteland will only open up wasteland at the edge of the rainforest.

"Lead a team of people to take down this lumberyard, and be careful to cut off the communication at the lumberyard."

Such lumberyards generally do not install telephones, let alone radio stations.

The price of a radio station is several thousand taels of silver coins, and even installing a telephone requires hundreds of taels of silver coins just for the cost of the phone line.

Most of the workers in the lumber mills are indigenous.

In the logging camp, they can at least have enough to eat and generally won't resist.

Aboriginal people who truly have a spirit of resistance will not be sent to a relaxing place like a lumber mill.

Even if something happened to the lumber camp and some indigenous people were lost, it wouldn't attract people's attention.

There is no need to install a telephone equipped radio.

However, General Fu Hong showed leniency to the enemy and would never allow the news of his arrival to leak.

When he led his troops through the rainforest, he was mentally prepared to be wiped out.

But before his entire army was annihilated, he had to achieve some results, instead of being surrounded and suppressed by Wei's heavy troops without any results at all.

Wanshi and indigenous workers at the lumberyard saw soldiers with guns rushing into the lumberyard.

The indigenous workers reacted very quickly. They immediately lay down on the ground and did not dare to move.

The Han steward came out and asked, "This is a state-owned farm. How dare you run wild on a state-owned farm and tell us your serial numbers."

"I am the Third Independent Division of the Cao State Army, and you have been captured."

After he finished speaking, he smashed the butt of his rifle down, and the Han steward saw this.

He immediately discovered that the military uniforms opposite him were not those of the Wei army.

He felt very ridiculous, how could Cao Jun arrive here.

"How did you come here? It's impossible. The front line of Yuanling Mansion has not been breached. How could we let you come to Jinxiu Mansion?"

The officer who asked the question, when he heard about Jinxiu Mansion, he immediately grabbed the officer's collar and asked loudly: "This is Jinxiu Mansion."

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The steward was a little frightened, and his voice was trembling with panic.

"Master Jun, Master Jun.

I am a Han Chinese, not an internalized Han Chinese. My ancestors have been Han Chinese for eighteen generations. We have the same culture and race. For the sake of our ancestors, please let me go."

"Ask you a question and give me an honest answer.

As long as you behave well, our Cao army will treat prisoners preferentially."

The steward answered tremblingly: "Master Jun, this is the Jinxiu Mansion in the northwest of the Wei Kingdom.

The great men successfully introduced mulberry trees here, with the silk and textile industry as the core.

It was just a small town before, but due to the open rainforest, the land and population are increasing.

When the plan was finalized a few years ago, it was named Jinxiu Mansion."

The officer said in surprise: "Jinxiu Mansion, Jinxiu Mansion is less than a hundred kilometers away from Yuanling Mansion."

He didn't even expect that they were walking through the rain forest in such a crooked direction. No wonder it took twenty-five days.

Originally I wanted to enter the north of Wei State, but now I went directly to the northwest of Wei State.

"Master Jun, I have a map in my house. There is no need for me to lie when talking about this kind of thing."

The officers controlled all the people in the logging site.

He found the map in the steward's house and immediately went to report to General Fu Hong.

General Fu Hong looked at this map. He didn't even expect that he would be able to reach the Jinxiu Mansion of Wei State.

This is very far from his original goal.
