"What happened?" Crosshair also heard the explosion and came over and asked, "I seem to hear the explosion faintly."
Qin Fei said: "Yes, someone triggered the booby trap I crashed into the truck. This proves that the rebels have reached the edge of the jungle."
The crosshair looked around, stretched out his hand to shoo away the mosquitoes flying in front of him, wiped his sweat and said: "This damn jungle, I hate the jungle here."
There are not many mountains on the sea side in the western part of Sierra Leone, and only the east side has slightly more mountains and forests. This is why every time the rebels are beaten, they will run back to the eastern province and use it as their base, because it is easy to hide in the mountainous areas, leaving the government forces helpless.
.
The terrain of the jungle between Salon and Port Loko is actually not steep, but it does not mean that it is easy to walk. Although there are no mountains here, there are still many hills, with an altitude of more than 100 meters, almost one after another.
One, because it is inaccessible all year round, the place is overgrown with vines and towering trees, and the sky is almost invisible when you look up.
In addition, there are many snakes and insects, and if you are not careful, you will be bitten all over the face.
Qin Fei said: "Sight, how far do you think we have traveled since we entered the jungle?"
The crosshair said: "It has to be more than ten kilometers away, right?"
Qin Fei smiled bitterly and said: "It seems that you really have no sense of distance. We only walked about five kilometers. Otherwise, how could you still hear the explosion if we were far away?"
"What?" Crosshair lowered his head and was shocked, and quickly took out his GPS locator from his tactical bag.
However, the locator seems to have been subject to some interference, and it is unable to determine the position as if it has crashed.
I tried restarting the GPS once, but it still didn't work.
"Damn it! Did it get wet?" He took the GPS and shook it several times, but it still didn't help.
In fact, his GPS is for military use and has excellent sealing and waterproofing properties. Unless the casing is broken, it is difficult to suffer low-level failures such as water intrusion.
"Don't look at it." Qin Fei said: "In the jungle, it is hot and humid, many electronic devices will become unstable, and the failure rate of firearms will be greatly increased. Even the most advanced weapons and equipment may not be able to meet expectations in the jungle.
Effect. The GPS satellite signal is greatly attenuated, making it difficult to locate in the jungle. Now we have to rely on traditional maps and compasses again."
"What the hell!"
As Zixing spoke, he squatted down and looked at the map that Old Yu had placed on the ground, and asked, "Where are we now?"
The old fish pointed at the current location with his finger.
I made a rough estimate with the sight and found that I had only traveled five kilometers.
"This way we can easily be caught up. The rebel soldiers are definitely moving faster than us."
Qin Fei said: "So Lao Yu and I have also made a decision and want to see your opinions."
He waved to the polar bear and Thor, asking them to come over.
When everyone arrived, Qin Fei said: "If we follow our current speed, the rebels should catch up with us within two hours. We can't go fast with the children. There is only one choice now. We must stay three
One person came down to block the attack and delay the rebels' advance, allowing the other two to take the Rhodes father, daughter and children to Port Loko first."
He raised his head and glanced around everyone: "What do you think?"
"Can the three of you stop those rebels? Although I don't know how many of them are chasing them, there were more than 300 rebels in Longsa City at that time. Even if they come half, you still have to deal with more than 100 people."
Thor frowned and shook his head: "Each person has to deal with dozens of people. In military terms, this is almost courting death."
"We have no other option." Qin Fei gritted his teeth and said: "We can only fight to the death. Since we have taken over this job, we must do it well. I plan to stay with Lao Yu and Crosshair, and you will take the captured R4 and AK47,
There are also ammunition for us. You can bring your own guns and bullets and go as fast as you can. Less than a kilometer out of this jungle is Port Loko. You can wait for us here."
Qin Fei pointed at the map and clicked on a coordinate.
"do you understand?"
No one answered.
Qin Fei continued: "Radio signals will also attenuate in the jungle. If you can't contact us, don't panic or rush. It's not that we hung up, but that we temporarily lost contact."
He looked at his watch and estimated the time: "At a speed of three kilometers per hour, it will take you at least eleven hours, maybe fifteen hours to pass through this jungle. When you arrive at Port Loko
Don't wait for more than an hour before we arrive. Find a boat and leave there immediately. It is now 4:10 in the morning, which means that we will arrive at Port Loko at 7:10 tonight at the latest.
Otherwise you have to leave and go to Liberty City, do you understand?"
After a long time, the polar bear said in a deep voice: "The risk for you is very high. I have fought in the past where I have won more battles with less, but it is not as disparate as the situation you are facing now."
Lao Yu interjected: "Don't worry about this. Qin Fei and I are both from the PLA's reconnaissance force. The training we received emphasized jungle warfare. When fighting in such a place, individual soldier quality is extremely important. In peace, there are also
Urban combat is different. There are so many people here that it is impossible to launch it. Although it is dangerous, it is not impossible to win."
After hearing this, Thor and Polar Bear felt that what Qin Fei said was quite reasonable. Now is not the time to choose between three and four. There is only one option. If there is no one to stop it, then it is doomed. If someone is left to stop it, at least there is a chance of survival.
.
Give all the guns and ammunition to Qin Fei and the other three people. Now Qin Fei, Lao Yu and Zixing each have two guns.
Crosshair removed the 8x scope from the SVD and put it into a tactical bag. He also found a red dot sight without magnification from the bag and put it on.
"This thing is no longer useful."
Qin Fei smiled and said that the method of aiming the sight was very correct. If there is a blocking battle later, the two sides will hardly have contact at a very long distance. In this primitive jungle, the sniper's ability is compressed to the minimum. In the jungle
There are dense trees, and the sight of the scope is seriously obstructed by the plants. Its range of action in the jungle is far less than that in open terrain such as deserts and plains.
What's even more terrible is that the original SVD sight adopts a different aiming method from American and European weapons. It is a special "T" shaped aiming sight. There are four "herringbone" arrow-shaped sights on the center line, and next to it
It is the ranging line. The first aiming arrow states in the user manual that it can be used within 0-250 meters. In fact, when the distance between the target and the shooter is about 50 meters, using the first arrow to aim at the opponent will cause deviation and will not hit the target.
in the position where you want to shoot.
To fight a blocking battle in such a primitive jungle with dense trees, it is faster and easier to use a red dot sight directly.
"Hey!"
Someone patted Qin Fei from behind.
Looking back, Qin Fei discovered that it was Emily, the silly white sweet girl.
"Is there anything we can eat? My students and I are starving to death."
