Chapter 4) The little girl picking mushrooms in the Golden Triangle, deep in the jungle of northern Myanmar.
At four-thirty in the morning, the quietest moment of the day, the east was already dimly lit, but the light was still dim in the jungle, and the whole world was like a dark green, surprisingly quiet.
This time is also the time when people’s spirits are the most sleepy. At the foot of the mountain deep in the jungle, a hidden camp loomed in the thick fog. The sentry on the tower leaned against the railing and yawned while smoking. The guard standing guard in front of the camp gate also
He suddenly lost his energy.
In the bushes a hundred meters away from the camp, Ye Feng lay quietly on the ground, like a hunting lion, staring motionlessly at the guard on the gate.
This is the sphere of influence of the big drug lord Cha Kang. Cha Kang is the most powerful warlord leader in the Golden Triangle, controlling nearly half of the Golden Triangle. The huge profits gained from dealing in drugs allow him to constantly recruit troops. The strength of his troops makes him
Dominating the warlord war, even the governments of Myanmar, Thailand and Laos are wary of it.
Slowly, a hint of fish belly white appeared in the east, the thick fog gradually dispersed, and dewdrops as clear as pearls rolled on the tender green leaves.
His clothes had long been soaked by the mist, but Ye Feng still lay motionless in the bushes.
This operation is a difficult move that Ye Feng has never encountered since his debut. Everything is unknown, except the unknown or the unknown.
Before getting off the plane, Zhang Jianguo handed Ye Feng a military satellite map. However, this Golden Triangle map only had two red circles, one large and one small. The big red circle represented the sphere of influence controlled by Cha Kang, and the small red circle referred to Cha Kang.
There are no exact coordinates for the location of Kang's headquarters. Everything is a rough outline drawn based on scattered intelligence. As for whether the Tang Hanting that was kidnapped has been transferred to Cha Kang's military headquarters or is being held in other places.
It's still an unknown mystery.
Everything is unknown, which greatly limits Ye Feng's actions. He needs to sneak into Cha Kang's territory quietly and inquire about the whereabouts of Tang Hanting while inquiring about the news. And he must do it as fast as possible. Because just yesterday
Late at night, the Tang family received the conditions proposed by Cha Kang. The southwest government must withdraw from the anti-smuggling checkpoint on the China-Myanmar border within 72 hours, otherwise Tang Hanting, the head of the Tang family, would be punished.
Nearly five hours have passed, and Ye Feng must race against time to find the whereabouts of Tang Hanting.
Finally, the guard guarding the sentry couldn't bear it anymore and leaned against the wooden fence and closed his eyes.
With a God-given opportunity, Ye Feng used his hands and feet to slide quickly like a poisonous snake, approaching the blockade silently.
In order to avoid alerting the enemy, the military transport plane just airdropped Ye Feng into the Sanwang zone outside Chakang's sphere of influence. The checkpoint in front of him was just the first step to Chakang's territory. There could be no disturbance, let alone rash action, otherwise
Alarming the army, not only Ye Feng himself was hindered, but it also made Cha Kang alert, and might also endanger Tang Hanting's life.
Smooth, extremely smooth.
Ye Feng easily crossed the blockade and disappeared into the vast forest.
Successfully passing through the level greatly increased Ye Feng's confidence, and he also gained a new understanding of this warlord's armed forces. Although the force was large, the equipment was ordinary, and the military discipline was loose. Compared with the Danish Swordfish Commando and the French Swordfish Commando who had fought against each other before,
The Foreign Legion Parachute Regiment is simply not on the same level.
The sun has risen, and there is green in front of me, endless green. This is the same color as dark green, so dazzling green that it makes people's hearts itch, as if a careless painter accidentally knocked over his palette and painted it.
All the intense green oil paint poured down and covered the mountain top.
Everything is unknown. After comprehensive analysis in many aspects, Ye Feng feels that Tang Hanting is likely to be sent to Homon Town at the foot of Lemo Mountain in northern Myanmar. Homon Town is the location of Cha Kang's military headquarters. It is heavily guarded and is also where Cha Kang is.
The place where Kang has lived for a long time. For the big drug lord Cha Kang, Tang Hanting is a hard bone that he has not broken for many years. At this time, his old rival has become a prisoner, and Cha Kang is very likely to meet Tang Hanting.
Thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi. People all have bad roots, and it is a pleasure to show off one's strength in front of old rivals. What's more, Chakang has dominated the Golden Triangle for many years, and has always been an arrogant and domineering local emperor.
, faced with Tang Hanting's long-term neglect and humiliation, how could he let go of this God-given opportunity.
Even though it was just a guess, now that time was limited, Ye Feng could only make a bet.
Not long after swimming in the green jungle, a small village appeared in front of us.
It happened to be breakfast time, and every household had a faint smoke. The pale white smoke aroused the greed in Ye Feng's heart, but as soon as it appeared, Ye Feng hurriedly retreated back into the jungle. All he could see was the empty space in the middle of the village.
On the ground, dozens of soldiers in green military uniforms were practicing formation. They were showing off with great fanfare and did not shy away from the passing people, and many of them were child soldiers in their fifteenth or sixteenth year. Whether in the fields or on the streets,
, almost all the men are wearing military uniforms or carrying guns.
This scene was so terrifying that outsiders did not dare to do anything wrong.
Ye Feng remembered what Zhang Jianguo told him on the military transport plane. The folk customs in the Golden Triangle area are strong. Men must go to school to learn military knowledge from the age of seven or eight. They must join the army from the age of thirteen or fourteen and cannot retire from the army for life. Even if
From now on, if you are not in the army, you can only count it as a "vacation". If there is a war, you must come back immediately; and every household must have someone to join the army. If there are no men, female soldiers will be recruited. However, due to the long-term military conflicts in the Golden Triangle area, large and small
The warlords have never slackened in the construction of the army, which has also formed the unique scenery of the Golden Triangle area where all the people are soldiers.
Use drugs to support the army, use the army to protect the drugs, and then use the huge profits gained from selling drugs to expand the army and seize territory. This is like a cycle, with major drug lords taking turns to appear on the scene. This is why Songsa left and came out again.
After the investigation was over, there was another reason for the investigation. As long as there are opium poppies, drug lords will always exist. Similarly, as long as drug lords still want to traffic drugs to make huge profits, there will definitely be people who grow opium poppies. These two
The two are complementary to each other. If you want to truly eliminate drugs in the Golden Triangle, I am afraid there is only one possible way, and that is to disarm all warlords. Otherwise, all efforts can only be a game of changing the soup without changing the medicine.
Soon, as the soldiers finished their morning training, Ye Feng saw another situation that Zhang Jianguo talked about.
Two young soldiers in their twenties carried tattered AK47 assault rifles on their backs and walked towards the jungle talking and laughing. Along the way, the two of them put their arms around each other and took out a small piece of black smoke from their arms.
Cream, slowly roll it into thin strips with your palms, and stuff it into the equally dirty bong.
It was really a "two-gun soldier". Ye Feng hid behind a tree and shook his head and sighed. Such an army would have no combat effectiveness. I'm afraid it could only compete with other warlords who were also "two-gun soldiers" for territory.
Two soldiers walked into the jungle, one continued to rub the thick black tobacco paste, and the other found some dry materials from around and lit a fire. The two of them sat around the fire, and you puffed away the smoke.
It seemed that they were very comfortable. The two yawned again and again, and lay swaying next to the bonfire. Gray smoke rose misty, and the two slowly entered a state of excitement, and even the AK47 assault rifles in their arms were shaking.
No, just throw it next to the campfire without fear of the ammunition getting heated and setting off.
The two of them had forgotten everything, and only saw the dirty big smoking gun. Ye Feng poked his head out from behind the big tree and watched coldly.
Although he guessed that Tang Hanting would not be imprisoned in this inconspicuous little village, Ye Feng was unwilling to leave just now. After all, this was a matter of life and death. A slight negligence would cause irreparable consequences.
.And there are exactly two "tongues" right in front of me. Although their military positions are not high, if a foreigner appears in this remote village, the sensational effect will probably be no less than that of a film and television star appearing at a fan meeting.
meeting.
After making up his mind, Ye Feng quickly hid behind the tree trunk as he was about to get up and ask the two big smokers.
The sound of footsteps sounded, and a little girl carrying a bamboo basket walked out of the jungle not far away.
This is a little girl picking mushrooms. Looking at the big, plump and juicy mushrooms in the bamboo basket, Ye Feng couldn't help but laugh.
My mind instantly drifted back to my poor but happy childhood. In order to supplement the family income, Ye Feng's sister often went to the grove to pick wild vegetables. Mountain mushrooms, sweet potatoes, purslane, field rice, bracken, dandelion, elm money, willow buds...
...All kinds of familiar wild vegetables came to mind. Ye Feng leaned on the tree trunk and looked up at the clear sky, with fluorescent lights shining in his eyes and tears quietly falling down his face.
Suddenly, a scream interrupted Ye Feng's memories.
The two soldiers were extremely excited by the smoke. Suddenly, they found a little girl walking by. The animal desires in their hearts suddenly burst out. They no longer yawned lazily, but just like two evil wolves, they were unscrupulous.
The little girl was thrown to the ground. One of them covered the little girl's mouth, while the other man sat on the little girl and tore her wildly.
Furious, Ye Feng strode out and kicked the soldier who was sitting on the little girl to the ground. Then he grabbed the head of another soldier and slammed it to the ground.
Dong-dong-dong, like the thunder of war drums, the military caps on the soldiers' heads flew to the ground, while the wolf's head had already been torn apart, and blood flowed like arrows.
Ye Feng continued to bang it for more than ten times, until the white brain matter burst out, and Ye Feng finally dropped the shapeless head.
He stretched out his hand to help the sobbing little girl, and after some consolation, Ye Feng finally made the little girl stop sobbing.
As he watched the little girl leave with the bamboo basket, there was a roar behind her.
"Damn it, you bastard, how dare you interfere with my good deeds? I'll shoot you."
This is the soldier who was kicked to the ground by Ye Feng. He stood up unsteadily, reached out to wipe the blood from his forehead, and tremblingly took out the big smoking gun from his arms. This man was already addicted to the big smoking.
The unconscious soldier could no longer tell what "gun" he was holding in his hand.
"I'll kill you, bang, smash your head, bang, break your heart."
The soldier held the smoking gun in both hands and kept pulling the trigger with his right index finger. Of course, the trigger he pulled was only the trigger he thought existed.
Ye Feng sneered again and again, stepped forward facing the black "muzzle", and jammed the soldier's neck.
Click, click, the sound of cracking bones was heard, and the big smoker fell to the ground while holding his beloved smoking gun.
I wanted to explore the whereabouts of Tang Hanting, but unexpectedly, something like this happened. This place is no longer a place to stay for a long time.
Ye Feng hurriedly entered the jungle and wanted to quickly bypass this small village. Not long after walking, he heard another shout from behind.
