Armed drug traffickers have been operating in the tropical jungle all year round. They can walk with bare feet like flying. According to the direction of the cut vines and the position of the fallen grass blades, they have been following Liu Ziguang and the others...
com
Of course, Li Jianguo was also trained in jungle warfare, and he casually set up measures to confuse the enemy as he advanced. However, because the enemy was equipped with hounds to follow the blood stains left by Xuanzi, the tracking direction was always correct.
Liu Ziguang now had three guns in his hands, an M4, an MP5K, a 9mm pistol, and four Type 77-1 grenades. He was armed to the teeth. He quickly ran in the opposite direction, with blood on the soles of his shoes.
The cloth strips attracted the hounds, and Li Jianguo and the others heard the barking of the dogs gradually disappearing, and began their arduous trek again.
The drug dealers searched under a big banyan tree. The hounds stopped and hesitated, just roaring at the tree. The drug dealers raised their guns and fired at the tree. The leaves were beaten to pieces, but there was no trace of them.
No sign of prey.
A drug dealer picked up a gun and climbed up a tree skillfully. After some searching, he finally found a blood-stained piece of cloth on the branch. He waved the piece of cloth downward and shouted: "You've been fooled!"
As soon as he finished speaking, gunshots rang out. The drug dealer on the tree was shot in the thigh and fell down from the tree. Everyone was shocked and searched for the place where the shot was fired, but found nothing. A moment later, another shot was fired from the other direction, and the hound fell to the ground after being shot.
, whimpering and wailing, this time everyone saw clearly the direction of the shooting, and fired together. The bullets were flying, and the branches and vines were flying in all directions. After firing for half a minute, the leader shouted: "Stop!"
The leader sent two people over to check, but after a long time there was no movement.
"Wangchai, Danta, what did you see?" the leader shouted loudly.
There was still no reply, and the leader felt bad, so he called on everyone to gather around him, only to find that both of them were tied to the tree and the gun was missing.
"Spread out the search, the distance should not be too large, and we should be able to see each other." The leader felt a chill in his heart. It seemed that the other party had a lot of background, and he didn't know whether he was from the mountain top.
"Dong dong dong" a burst of gunfire rang out. Three drug dealers were hit and fell to the ground. The others hurriedly lay down, looking for cover to fight back. The jungle was filled with gunshots, but they were all fired blindly because the target could not be seen at all.
.
Suddenly someone shouted: "I saw him!"
The visibility in the primeval forest is very low. The canopy of the towering trees blocks most of the sunlight. There are spreading vines and leaves everywhere. Only a dark shadow can be seen as agile as an ape, jumping around on the tree with the help of rattan.
It's so fast that people can't even react.
Another hail of bullets poured in, but the opponent had long since disappeared and launched an attack from an unexpected direction. This man's marksmanship was extremely accurate. He didn't hit the body or the head, but only hit the person's thigh. This was definitely not because he had a special skill.
It is not compassionate, but because the wounded can reduce the opponent's combat effectiveness. A wounded soldier needs at least one person to take care of him, and the miserable condition of the wounded soldier can also damage the enemy's morale.
The drug dealers were attacked so badly that they did not dare to disperse and search. Instead, they gathered in groups for collective action. However, just like this, the grenade fell from the sky and exploded at just the right time. It exploded in mid-air and the drug dealers were blown to pieces.
Fuzzy, grenades have limited lethality in the jungle, otherwise the drug dealers would suffer greater casualties.
The leader was furious. He originally came to search and hunt, but unexpectedly he was "hunted" by the other party. In just ten minutes, he lost more than a dozen brothers. He was shot in the thigh and lost blood quickly. Two people were already injured due to lack of timely treatment.
And died, if we continue like this, sooner or later the whole army will be destroyed.
…
Li Jianguo finally found a creek, and no longer had to wield his machete to cut through thorns. The three of them waded along the creek. There was intensive gunfire behind them. They couldn't help but look back at the dense forest, speechless.
"Let's go." Li Jianguo whispered.
The three of them continued on their journey and walked along the creek for several hours. The creek merged into a larger river. There was a dirt road on the bank and there was a faint stilted building in the distance. Xuanzi and Zheng Chen were exhausted, and their mental pressure suddenly relaxed.
, can't walk anymore.
Li Jianguo asked Xuanzi to stay where he was, and he took Zheng Chen forward to investigate. This was a small village located on the border of the Kokang Special Administrative Region. The villagers used to grow opium poppies for a living, but now they plant other cash crops, but no matter what they plant,
cannot escape the troubles of poverty.
The mountain people were extremely hospitable and treated the three embarrassed guests with rice. After trekking through the jungle, the clothes of the three of them were torn into rags and they looked almost like beggars. After eating, Xuanzi and
Zheng Chen looked at each other, because they had no money to pay the bill, and the only valuable thing was the jade pendant that Xuanzi bought by chance. However, this thing was worth a lot of money. It would be a pity if it was only used to pay for meals.
After thinking about it, Xuanzi gritted his teeth and took out the jade pendant and gestured to give it to the villagers. The mountain villagers quickly refused. It didn't look like he was faking it. They were trying to give in. Li Jianguo took out a ten-yuan RMB and handed it over.
The mountain man still refused, but his attitude was not so firm. Li Jianguo couldn't help but push the banknotes over. A simple smile appeared on the mountain man's honest face, and he ran to bring a lot of tropical fruits for them to eat.
After resting enough, Li Jianguo asked Zheng Chen to inquire about it. It was very close to Kokang Old Street. The Shan Gang's first special zone was relatively safe. Those drug dealers and small warlords did not dare not to give face to the chairman of the special zone. Li Jianguo thought about it.
After thinking about it, I decided to hire a bullock cart to go to Lao Cai and find a way to return home from near Nanshan Port.
There was no need to carry the gun, so he dismantled it and buried it by the river. He spent twenty yuan to hire an ox cart, and the three of them rode to the old street. They were silent all the way, not daring to think about the consequences of covering them.
Good brothers trapped in the jungle.
After walking for several hours, we finally arrived at Old Street, the seat of the Kokang Special Administrative Region Government. There were signs with Chinese characters everywhere, and it was difficult for pedestrians on the street to tell whether they were Chinese or Burmese. Li Jianguo turned on his mobile phone and saw that there was indeed a signal. His first
The first thing I did was to call home and tell my family that Xuanzi was saved, so that they could rest assured.
After hanging up the phone, Li Jianguo took the two of them to buy clothes. It was too ostentatious to cross the border wearing tattered cloth. The border police would definitely pay attention to them, so they had to buy an outfit to wear first.
I found a cheap clothing store and while I was bargaining for clothes, a pickup truck drove by behind me. There were several soldiers in green uniforms sitting in the car, holding automatic rifles in their hands and wearing red sleeve bands on their arms. Li Jianguo
He quickly turned around, facing away from the road, and discussed the price with the shopkeeper as if nothing had happened.
Suddenly the pickup truck reversed back, the soldiers in the car jumped out, and a man who looked like an officer opened the door and walked straight towards the three of them. Xuanzi's face turned pale with fright, Zheng Chen also quietly hid aside, and Li Jianguo's muscles tensed up.
, ready to explode at any time.
"Instructor Li!" The voice was so familiar. When Li Jianguo turned around, he was shocked to find that the person standing in front of him was Xu Yukai, a soldier he had led before.
"Xu Yukai, why are you here?" Li Jianguo asked in surprise.
"After I was demobilized, my hometown didn't provide me with a job, so I started to look for a job on my own. I came here to serve as a soldier. Now I'm the captain of a special police squadron. I'm in charge of the security of this street."
When the old comrades met, they said nothing. Xu Yukai asked the three of them to get in the car and go home to eat and take a shower first.
Xu Yukai was doing well in the local area. He had a big house, orderlies, and a pretty Dai girl to serve him. After changing into casual clothes, he invited Li Jianguo and three others to take a bath at the local bathing center, and then ordered a lot of food.
With some food and beer, the four of us had a good meal.
"Old Li, what are you doing here? If it involves secrets, just pretend I didn't ask." Xu Yukai asked mysteriously.
Li Jianguo shook his head: "I have stopped eating this bowl of rice a long time ago."
Xu Yukai's eyes lit up and he said: "Lao Li, if you don't work in the army anymore, I will introduce you to a job. The situation is tense now. The Burmese government is going to go to war with the Wabang. As expected, it won't be much better. What we need most now is you."
With such a good hand, if you are willing, it won't be a problem to get a brigade commander."
Li Jianguo shook his head lightly: "Not interested."
"Think about it carefully. I'm going to treat you today. Don't be polite to me. I'll go back and have some tropical girls to play with, and we can have a couple." Xu Yukai said boldly.
Li Jianguo didn't like this. Xuanzi and Zheng Chen were nervous and not in the mood to play. Seeing that they were not interested, Xu Yukai said, "You guys eat first, and I'll get some clothes." After that, he went out.
.
As soon as Xu Yukai left, Zheng Chen immediately said mysteriously: "Brother Li, why don't you ask your comrade to help rescue Brother Liu?"
"People change." Li Jianguo said calmly, and gently opened the curtains. There was a post every three steps and a sentry every five steps outside, already surrounding the place.
These courageous soldiers, wearing single green military uniforms, Jiefang shoes, and canvas bullet bags on the chest, except for the cap emblem, look like the People's Liberation Army in the early 1990s, and they also speak Chinese, which makes people feel strange.
The illusion is that I feel like I am in a certain county in China.
"What should we do? Your old comrade-in-arms has detained us!" Xuanzi was anxious.
"Wait and see." Li Jianguo was not in a hurry at all.
Half an hour later, Xu Yukai came back excitedly and brought three sets of clothes, a shirt, trousers, belt, leather shoes, and underwear. They were all branded goods, such as Montagut, Crocodile, Goldlion, etc. They were considered fashionable in the upper class in Kokang.
After the three of them finished dressing, Xu Yukai said mysteriously: "Instructor Li, the Chairman of the Special Zone wants to see you."
