Ten hours later, a large number of planes landed at a remote airport in western Africa.
Because of the time difference, it was still noon here when we got off the plane.
Although the warm spring has just passed and summer has not yet arrived, the sun is already scorching in Africa. The temperature is at least 30 or 40 degrees, and the sand and gravel under our feet are even 50 or 60 degrees.
Ordinary people without fresh water can only survive for three hours at most in the scorching African grasslands before they die of dehydration.
Therefore, it is said on the TV news that which city in China is hotter than the African grasslands is pure nonsense.
At a glance, apart from the airport buildings, there is a grassland, and some low hillsides and jungles can be seen in the distance.
Shen Lang had also been to Africa on missions before when he was an assassin in Long Teng, so he was no stranger to this kind of scenery.
Wang Tiangu's secretly established military base is far away from here, and it takes half a day to drive an off-road vehicle to get there.
The local peacekeeping force at the airport immediately brought the Longteng masters to a building, a slightly crude conference hall with only some tables and chairs placed in it.
It involves individual soldier operations and the environment is relatively harsh. The experts distributed satellite phones and some covert communication tools, as well as food, fresh water and backpacks.
Zhu Sanshan, the commander-in-chief of Dragon Teng, briefly explained the terrain and environment here.
This is a small country on the border of Africa. It is very backward and even now there are tribes living in groups.
There are less than 10,000 regular troops in this country, and their combat effectiveness is extremely poor. Even the national government cannot stop Wang Tiangu.
Longteng's battle plan is very simple, that is, let Longteng's top soldiers and masters open a breakthrough first. Once the breakthrough is opened, the rear troops will suppress it with all their strength, instantly occupy the opponent's base, and capture Wang Tiangu alive.
Because they were worried about an ambush from the other side, Long Teng's experts acted together and were divided into two groups.
One group was led by Li Shunzi.
The other group of people was originally led by Shen Lang, but Shen Lang himself stated that he did not want to be the captain, and the captain was replaced by Li Canlang, the captain of the Tian group.
Shen Lang is concerned about collective action. He only wants to do two things here. One is to rescue Liu Xiaoxiao, and the other is to kill Wang Tiangu.
After Zhu Sanshan assigned the tasks, he said in a deep voice: "Everyone starts taking action after eating. You must go all out!"
Everyone started to eat. The food was all from the transport plane, such as compressed biscuits, instant solid drinks, and some canned pork.
These are just ordinary military foods of China, but to the local Africans, they are unimaginable delicacies.
Shen Lang found a secluded place by himself and started eating.
"quack!"
Suddenly there was an eagle whistle in the sky, and the white sea turtle raised by Shen Lang flew over.
"Little guy, you actually came here too?" Shen Lang was a little surprised.
You must know that the speed of military transport aircraft is not slow, and the flight time is more than ten hours. This sea turtle can fly all the way from China to Africa, and its flying ability is really powerful.
Judging from Bai Ying's demeanor at the moment, he seemed a little tired and hungry.
Shen Lang opened a pork can and threw it to Bai Ying.
The white eagle screamed happily a few times, picked up the can, and began to eat happily.
A smile appeared on Shen Lang's lips, this little guy might be able to help him.
After a large number of Long Teng members finished eating, the vanguard troops had already boarded off-road vehicles.
Li Canglang led a large group of people, and Li Shunzi led another group of people. The two groups supported each other.
More than twenty off-road vehicles set off at the same time.
The terrain for nearly one to two hundred kilometers is relatively flat and monotonous, just a prairie. Only in the distance can you vaguely see some hills and jungles.
Shen Lang was mixed in with the team, seemed relatively low-key, and kept his eyes closed to rest.
The African savannah is really a bit too hot.
"It's so hot!"
"I never want to come to this damn place again."
Several martial arts practitioners were sweating and complained that the temperature was too high and they couldn't even withstand the high temperature.
We encountered several lions on the road and were scared away by the sound of gunfire.
Fortunately, in the evening, the temperature dropped suddenly, from the high temperature of 40 degrees to 20 degrees.
More than half of the distance has been traveled, and the off-road vehicle has entered the jungle area from the grassland area.
Soon, it was completely dark, and the howls of various wild beasts and the cries of insects could be heard in the jungle.
"We are now approaching the rear area, everyone, stay alert." Li Canlang roared at several off-road vehicles behind him.
The off-road vehicle was still moving forward steadily, and everyone was vigilantly observing the threats around them.
"Buzz buzz!"
The most annoying thing is mosquitoes.
Mosquitoes in the African jungle are as big as spiders and are very poisonous. A bite will leave a big red and swollen patch and will most likely cause severe fever.
If you are a martial arts practitioner with a good physique, it doesn't matter if you get stung a few times, but it's just too annoying.
A master like Shen Lang is naturally not afraid of mosquito bites.
When a mosquito lands on Shen Lang's body, his skin will automatically stimulate a weak body-protecting Qi, which can directly kill the mosquito.
Some martial arts cultivators with lower cultivation levels were in a worse situation. They were covered in bites and felt very uncomfortable.
Not long after, Li Canlang in front shouted to the group of off-road vehicles behind him: "We are still a hundred kilometers away from the target. The opponent may have a large radar station. Pay attention to the surrounding movements!"
The off-road vehicle continued to drive rapidly through the jungle.
Shen Lang has discovered that there are surveillance cameras hidden in some hidden places in the jungle.
However, there is not much difference between monitoring and not monitoring. Wang Tian is so old and cunning, how could he not expect that Long Teng's people would raid their base.
Shen Lang knew very well that the initiative now rested in Wang Tiangu's hands.
Long Teng and Wang Tiangu tried to force him to leave it alone, as long as he rescued Liu Xiaoxiao.
The deepest part of the jungle.
A huge building came into view. In the center was a gray building. It was not high, with only two floors, but it covered a very large area.
This is the base camp of Wang Tiangu Base.
As early as half a year ago, Wang Tiangu had secretly developed hidden military buildings here.
At this moment, in a certain hall.
Several staff members in smart attire sat in front of a large number of monitors, with surveillance footage playing on them. Wang Tiangu was watching from behind.
"Shen Lang, you are indeed here." Wang Tiangu narrowed his eyes.
Last year, Shen Lang's cultivation level could not reach the peak of the late stage, but now he has reached the middle stage of the questioning realm, which makes Wang Tiangu find it incredible.
There must be incredible things in incredible people. Wang Tiangu was not only interested in Shen Lang's body, but also felt that he had some unknown secrets.
Just like himself, who could achieve his current status with a mysterious ancient book, Wang Tiangu felt that Shen Lang must have something similar to him.
Wang Tiangu couldn't wait to get Shen Lang's body and learn the secrets about him.
