Lord of Hyranza

Chapter 29 28. Simple tasks

In the early morning, the mist in the mountains and forests has not dissipated, and the faint mist flows slowly in the mountains, making this sloping land downstream like a fairyland on earth.

The second team, led by Suldak, left the station of the 57th Heavy Armored Infantry Regiment in Handanar County Forest Farm. The dew on the grass leaves soaked the trousers of the soldiers, and the wet linen trousers stuck to their legs , Feeling cold and unable to walk, it makes people feel very uncomfortable.

All members of the team carried a total of seven days of marching rations, and Surdak planned to use this search and rescue mission as a field training for the team.

This is also the first time that Surdak has led all the members of the second team on a mission since he became the captain.

A few days ago, Surdak and the team members also entered the northern part of the forest farm to hunt red-eyed hyenas in the area of ​​Gan Daer Mountain.

But that time was a net-casting operation organized by the 57th Heavy Armored Infantry Regiment. The second team only sent five veterans with rich combat experience to participate in the hunting operation. Suldak was only one of them and did not gain command.

This time on the mission alone, Surdak, as the captain, not only made a comprehensive plan overnight, but also received a simple parchment map from Baron Sidney. There are some simple lines on the parchment map, outlining The trend of Gandal Mountains.

Surdak proudly unfolded the parchment map, pointed to an area, and said to He Boqiang, "I see, this is the location of our camp."

Looking at the map that was only one foot square, He Boqiang couldn't help sighing in his heart.

This kind of sketch map on a hand-painted board can only mark the approximate location of the camp. This kind of map is actually used for recording. Entering the Gandal Mountains, all the iconic reference objects encountered along the way are marked on the map. so you won't get lost in the mountains.

These knowledge are all in the memory fragments of the original owner. He Boqiang will sort out the memory fragments in the spiritual world when he has time recently, so he also has a lot of experience.

Although currently communicating with Surdak, it can only be expressed with simple gestures.

But Suldak doesn't seem to care at all. He always likes to drag He Boqiang to talk about this and that, but the one he usually talks about the most is the village of Wall on the outskirts of his hometown of Hailansa.

In Surdak's words, the small village was far from the war, and the fields were full of fields of wheat.

Standing in the golden wheat field in autumn, open your arms, look at the sun and close your eyes, enjoying the warmth of that beam of light.

When the wind with a touch of straw sweetness blows from my ears, it's like a wonderful bagpipe...

……

The goal of the second team's mission this time is to find a Bena swordsman in the Gandal Mountains and bring him back to the camp.

Baron Sidney received the message:

This swordsman of Bena, a constructed swordsman of the main Constructed Knights under the Duke of Newman, chased a wounded evil spirit all the way from the Kempato River in the northwest of Handanalshire, and entered Ganda. The Earl Mountains have been missing since then.

The official document did not write the identity of the swordsman, but everyone guessed that the swordsman must be a big man.Otherwise, it is impossible for Duke Newman to issue a military order, ordering all the regiments stationed in the Gandal Mountains to send a reconnaissance team to find the whereabouts of the Bena Swordsman.

After receiving this mission, Surdak's second team hurried into the dense forest of Gandaer Mountain before the fog in the mountains and forests had dissipated.

At the same time as the second team, there were sixteen other teams of the infantry regiment. These teams got into the depths of the vast mountains and soon disappeared in the dense forest.

……

Surdak led the second team along the edge of the eastern area of ​​the forest farm and detoured to a mountain ridge. There was a river valley under the mountain ridge that stretched for dozens of kilometers. The team searched northeast along the mountain ridge. Above it will not be troubled by water problems.

Surdak did not have any hope of finding the swordsman of Bena. The Gandal Mountains meander for hundreds of kilometers, spanning the Warsaw plane of Kempato County and Handanar County. and Ortans County.

Not to mention just a swordsman walking through the mountains alone, even if the 57th Heavy Armored Infantry Regiment walked into this mountain, it would not cause any splashes.

The mountain forest is not always so dense, and the soil around the forest farm is fertile, so that fir, red pine and oak grow into the woodland.

After walking out of the forest farm, the hillside in front of me suddenly opened up. Except for the waist-high weeds, the hillside was full of low arbor forests. Climbing the hillside, the bunches of grapes on the vines are green and astringent. Only when they are completely mature will they attract a short-tailed turtledove living nearby.

Surdak stood on a large rock on the hillside, holding the parchment map in his hand, frowning for a long time and couldn't see anything.

At the foot of the mountain is a trickling river valley, with lush water and grass on both sides, and bushes growing a little farther from the river.

There is a group of one-horned bison on the other side of the lake, and a few crystal lions are lurking behind the rocks, but their fur is the color of flowing mercury in the sun, so no matter how they cover it, it is easy to expose and hide. Location.

However, this crystal lion runs faster than a cheetah. As long as they are within [-] meters, these bison will not be able to escape no matter what.

Because the fur of crystal lions is very precious, in the eyes of hunters, they are like a piece of gold that can run. A large number of hunters poured into the Warsaw plane, specifically to hunt the thorn-tailed crystal lion unique to this plane. Therefore, the crystal lions living on the edge of the Gandal Mountains have become increasingly rare.

If it weren't for the fact that the second team was not sure of being able to defeat a crystal lion, Surdak would probably have given up this mission without hesitation and stayed by the river until the crystal lions were wiped out.

But now, Surdak could only look at it from a distance, and then moved on with the second team.

For the two recruits of the second squad, this is undoubtedly a very novel place. They will be amazed at every new discovery they make. This is different from the veterans, who only care about those things that are useful or dangerous to them. .

When they encounter dangerous things, they will avoid them far away.

When they encounter something useful, they will walk up to it without hesitation and take it for themselves.

The hyena skin mattress Surdak prepared for the team members helped a lot. This season, the humidity in the mountains is very high. If you set up a tent, lie on the grass and sleep all night, and get up early in the morning, your entire back will be wet. Yes, the leather of this red-eyed hyena is very moisture-resistant, and lying on it will quickly relieve the fatigue of the day.

……

Walking along the Shanliang River Valley to the northeast for two consecutive days, I found a few indigenous people on the other side of the river.

It was a few indigenous women surrounded by animal skins, and they came out of the forest path in a row, each with a clay pot on their head.

After arriving by the river, they began to squat by the river to fetch water. These women were very vigilant and only stayed by the river for a few tens of seconds. After they filled the pot with water, they quickly left the river. side.
