Qin Fei and Zhao Xin walked one behind the other in the jungle, taking advantage of the darkness and heading towards Duoluo Town.
Raising their wrists, the numbers on the military watch showed that it was already one o'clock in the night. They must reach Doro before dawn, find the hospital, select a sniper position outside the hospital, and make a disguise and retreat plan to wait for Martial.
Appear.
We walked south along the mountain road and passed through a small village shortly after leaving the border.
Of course, if these places can still be called "villages".
Sparks still remain on the smoking ruins, indicating that a battle took place here not long ago. There are blood stains and bullet casings everywhere. If you accidentally step on it, you will make a crunching sound. Many corpses lie on the ruins and are burned to char.
, or lying directly across the ground, with residual limbs and brains scattered on the ground, and there were even a few hyenas that came out of nowhere and were biting the corpses and eating the meat on them.
There was a strange and pungent "aroma" permeating the air, which was the smell emitted after the meat was burnt. Zhao Xin looked at this purgatory-like scene with a pale face. He had watched many war movies.
I have also watched many bloody horror movies and have always believed that my endurance is extremely strong.
But when this cruel scene really comes into view, everything is so unacceptable. People are naturally repelled by such scenes of similar people being killed.
"Let's go, get out of here quickly, I'm afraid there are armed forces around, whether they are government troops or ** troops, it will be no good if we encounter them."
Zhao Xin felt like his stomach was churning, so he could only nod his head to show that he understood, for fear of spitting it out when he opened his mouth.
The two quickly retreated into the jungle.
About one kilometer after leaving the village, Qin Fei had a routine contact with Lao Yu and the others, then took out his PAD to recalibrate the coordinates, and continued his blond hair in the southeast direction.
Zhao Xin followed Qin Fei, and the two of them went deep into the inaccessible jungle. At night, unknown animals were calling in the jungle, and the sound sounded extremely sad and creepy.
Zhao Xin's previous impression of Africa was still in the desert plains. He did not expect that there are so many jungles and mountains here.
After walking for a while, Qin Fei in front suddenly squatted down, raised his right fist, and made a tactical sign to stop advancing.
Zhao Xin also crouched down quickly, holding his gun and looking around cautiously.
Qin Fei was responsible for performing a mission with Zhao Xin today, so he chose a dual-weapon system, an MK11 MOD0 sniper rifle and an HK416A5 automatic rifle.
Zhao Xin has a Dragunov SVD sniper rifle and an AK-103 automatic rifle. Since it is a sniper mission, all guns are equipped with silencers.
"Brother Qin, what's wrong?" He couldn't help but ask.
Qin Fei lowered his head and seemed to be observing the ground.
This is a path that passes through the ridge. Five or six meters away on the left is a cliff descending from the hillside, and on the right are patches of shrubs and jungles.
The road is one meter wide, and perhaps people often walk on it, so the yellow soil is exposed.
After looking at it, Qin Fei turned his head slightly: "There is someone nearby, and they are walking the same road as us."
He took off the HK416 assault rifle, placed it on the dirt floor, measured it, and then turned around and told Zhao Xin: "Damn it, at least a team of more than 20 people, one platoon."
Zhao Xin knew that Qin Fei was using a gun to measure the number of footprints on the ground. The number of footprints within the range of a gun was almost the number of people in that team. This was a value calculated based on the marching pace of the soldiers, although it was not 100% accurate.
, but almost.
A platoon!
He felt a chill down his spine and kept scanning the surroundings with the AK-103 in hand.
Qin Fei said: "It's okay, let's be careful. They just passed by not long ago, and the soil on the footprints here is still very fresh."
"How far are we from the hospital?" Zhao Xin asked.
Qin Fei said: "It's nearby..."
After a pause, he continued: "It seems that we are not very lucky this time. Originally, there was only about one squad of troops in the hospital. I estimate that even if Martial comes with his own guards, there will be less than one squad at most.
Platoon with more troops. If Machar hasn’t arrived yet, there are already so many rebels here, and I’m afraid we will have to face more than just one platoon.”
"..."
Zhao Xin might even be able to escape with the help of the jungle if the two of them faced a platoon. If there were more than one platoon...
Oops.
This is really not a good thing.
"Brother Qin, let's..."
"What should we do?" Qin Fei immediately guessed Zhao Xin's thoughts and said: "After the mercenaries received the money, they have to work. No matter how many people there are, they have to work. Otherwise, they will ruin their own brand..."
After thinking for a while, he smiled and said, "Actually, it's better this way. You can get more exercise opportunities."
Zhao Xin felt like his pores were standing on end.
At first he thought the remuneration was really generous, half a million U.S. dollars, which was equivalent to more than three million yuan in RMB. No matter what, he could get two or three hundred thousand, which would allow him to work in China for two years at a time.
But now it seems that the real risks are high and the rewards are high. Qin Fei's mercenary group takes on high-end tasks. The rewards are high, but the risks are also first-class.
"Let's go, let's enter the sniper position first." Qin Fei stood up and continued to lead the way.
After the two of them walked in the dark for twenty minutes, Yuri's voice suddenly came from the headphones.
"Boss, I got some satellite surveillance photos and sent them to your handheld PAD. Take a look. The situation seems to have changed."
"What's going on?" Qin Fei asked, motioning for Zhao Xin to hide in the bushes nearby.
Taking out the PAD, Qin Fei checked the pictures. Yuri continued to say in the headset: "These are not real-time pictures, they were taken a few hours ago. Suddenly there were many armed personnel in the hospital. I checked on the dark web. Today, South Sudan
Government troops and rebels fought near Doro. Both sides suffered casualties and then retreated. I estimate that the armed men who appeared in the hospital were rebel troops participating in the battle. They may have returned to the hospital to treat the wounded and rest.
"
Looking at the dense white dots displayed near the hospital in the picture, Qin Fei knew that that small white dot meant a soldier.
Judging from the picture, there were at least fifty or sixty people.
"How big is the scale of the battle?" Qin Fei asked.
Yuri said: "It's not too big. Both sides sent almost a company of troops. The fight ended in half an hour."
"I see."
After cutting off the communication, Qin Fei frowned.
This means that there is now a company of rebels entrenched near Doro's hospital. Even if half of them are wounded soldiers, there are probably dozens of people who can still participate in the battle. If Martial brings his own guards,
Come over, then the opponent's strength is close to a company.
Well--
"This is really a tricky thing." Qin Fei thought to himself.
