Firepower is king.

Chapter 40

The plane took off again, this time with two more inflatable boats on board.

This time it was still a reconnaissance, but it was no longer just reconnaissance from the air, but reconnaissance on the ground.

It was just scouting instead of fighting, and if they found any clues of human activities, all they had to do was evacuate, so Gao Guang and the others didn't carry any more combat equipment. The five of them were just five pistols and two AKs, that's all.

As for reconnaissance equipment, such as radar, telescope, and thermal imaging, these equipment are all useless, because the extremely dense vegetation will block everything.

People in the south, especially in the tropics, must understand what the extremely dense vegetation means.

In the rainforest, you can see the situation ten meters away, even if you have a wide field of vision. It is normal for people who are separated by a bush and less than one meter away to find a person who deliberately hides.

Therefore, tracking traces in the rainforest is an extremely important skill. People who are not familiar with the rainforest enter the rainforest to fight with the local indigenous people rashly, that is courting death.

Moreover, there are all kinds of deadly creatures that are ubiquitous in the rainforest, but difficult to find, such as poisonous spiders, poisonous snakes, all kinds of strange poisonous insects, poison dart frogs, and leeches, and mosquitoes that are overwhelming and carry deadly viruses.

Also, the place where Gao Guang and the others are going is an area where swamps and seasonal lakes alternately exist, which means that they must go into the water, so the underwater threats include caimans, electric eels, leeches, and giant pythons.

In short, the rainforest is really a very, very dangerous place, and if humans, the most dangerous creatures on earth, exist in such a dangerous place, it will be really terrible.

But there is no other reason than to go. There are [-] million dollars in the rainforest waiting for Gao Guang and the others to find them.

The plane landed and landed on the small lake that was selected last time.

When the plane began to taxi on the water and slowly approached the shore of the lake, no one spoke at this time, and everyone just looked around the small lake nervously.

George controlled the plane very well, and he stopped completely at a place more than ten meters away from the lake shore.

After turning off the engine, the cabin became quiet. Frank waved his hands lightly and said, "Guys, let's do it."

There was only excitement and excitement on John's face, and he didn't see the frustration of last night at all. He opened the plane door and wanted to jump onto the plane buoy. Then connect an electric-driven inflation nozzle to the inflatable boat and start inflating it.

Soon a three-person inflatable boat was fully inflated, followed by a second inflatable boat with an electric motor attached to the rear of the boat.

After the inflatable boat was ready, a rope was tied to the plane, and all five people boarded the inflatable boat, and then paddled toward the shore.

The vegetation is too dense, and there is no land at the lakeside, so there is no concept of shore. The woods are either muddy or shallow water just below the feet.

The good news is that there is no grass on the ground. The bad news is that you can't go by boat. If you want to enter the rainforest, you have to walk through the mud.

Sitting on the boat, after tying the rope to a big tree, Frank said in a low voice: "Look for the waterway first, there is no possibility of human activities in this terrain, if there is no waterway, just give up this landing point, and go back to the sky to find a suitable riverway." landing.

The biggest task now is to look around for signs of human activity, not to start a treasure hunt, so the most difficult time has not yet come.

John looked around, shook his head and said, "I know why Mr. Smith doesn't want this huge sum of money. I'd rather rush into a building occupied by a hundred Syrians than wade through the muddy water in this damn place."

Rubber said desperately: "Shut up, you don't dare to rush into a building with a hundred people, and you don't dare to rush into a building with ten people."

"Thinking that we will become multi-millionaires, you won't find it difficult." Frank pointed his finger not far away, and said solemnly: "Where there seems to be a river, let's start exploring there, guys, isn't this It’s a job that can be done in a day, don’t worry, take your time, and don’t let go of any clue.”

Eraser took out the GPS, and after looking at it, he said with a sad face: "Damn it, the straight-line distance between us and the coordinate point is [-] meters."

The distance in a straight line is [-] meters, and God knows how long it will take to walk there, but at this point, you have to keep going.

Frank breathed a sigh of relief and said, "George, you stay here to take care of the plane. Let's search with four people first. If necessary, we will search in groups of two. Turn on the walkie-talkie and GPS, let's go."

"Wait, this allocation is unreasonable!"

Several people looked at John, and then they were all a little stunned, but John said with a straight face: "If there are two groups, then who will be with him? Is it me again?"

John pointed at Gao Guang, Gao Guang was stunned, but Frank frowned and said, "Then don't separate, the four of us are together."

"But the efficiency of four people together is too low. As long as there is a suitable route, we must search separately. A team of two is the minimum, so we have prepared two boats. Then the problem comes. If I team up with him, What can he do?"

No one can deny that what John said is reasonable. Frank frowned and thought for a moment, then said, "I'm on the same team as Kung Fu Boy, so that's fine."

John pointed at Gao Guang again, and said: "He has never entered the jungle, and he has no experience in combat. Captain, we are not hunting for treasure this time, or dragging things out of the mud. We are investigating. What do you think he can do? ?You can let a rookie be a coolie, but you can't let a rookie who doesn't know anything go with me to investigate."

Frank looked at Gao Guang, then at George, frowned and said, "But only Joey can fly a plane, and Kung Fu Boy can't fly a plane."

John said lightly: "That's why the kung fu boy should stay and guard the plane. Guys, it's not that I don't trust you. Even if Joey can fly the plane, he can't fly the plane to the rainforest to pick us up and leave. Everyone is no rookie. , at this time, is it better to ensure that no one will escape alone?"

Eraser lowered his face, and said, "Bottle cap, that's too much for you to say."

Joey waved his hand and said: "No, what he said makes sense. I really should act with you. I will be with the rubber. After all, we cooperate more tacitly. How about the captain and the bottle cap?"

Frank hesitated for a moment, finally nodded, and said in a deep voice: "Okay, let's arrange it like this. The four of us will act together, and if we need to act separately, we will group like this."

After finishing speaking, Frank looked at Gao Guang, and said with a serious face: "Stay and watch the plane, don't stay in the plane, try not to get into the water, pay attention to prevent mosquito bites, and replenish water in time if you sweat too much, every hour Respray insect repellant, pay close attention to the movement around you, try to hide yourself as much as possible, and never stay away from the plane. Use the walkie-talkie to communicate every ten minutes. If you find that the communication distance is beyond the communication distance, continue to call until the contact is restored. If you find any abnormal situation, please notify us immediately. If you find someone approaching, shoot him immediately and notify us immediately!"

Frank had actually told Gao Guang several times before, but he couldn't help repeating it at this time, and finally he grabbed Gao Guang's collar and said in a stern voice: "This plane is the only way for us to leave. Even if you die! You have to protect this plane, understand!"

"I understand! I will never leave this plane!"

The captain let go of Gao Guang's clothes and whispered: "Don't make mistakes, call us immediately if you have any questions, even if you are just bitten by a bug, I don't want to see your dead body when I come back, be careful some."

Although it is a bit long-winded, the captain is actually a good person. He may indeed have little business ability as John said, but he is really a qualified boss.

Gao Guang got off the boat by himself. Standing on a clump of tree roots out of the water, he whispered to the four people who were about to leave: "Everyone, be careful and be safe."

John looked back at Gao Guang, smiled disdainfully, and said coldly, "Oh, rookie, take care of yourself!"

Frank was really the captain now, and he whispered, "Go!"

The electric motor started, and the inflatable boat didn't make any sound, but it drove out along the lake at a moderate speed, turned into a river less than two meters wide, and quickly disappeared.

The underlying vegetation under the canopy is not too dense, and the line of sight is not bad, but it must not exceed [-] meters. From now on, Gao Guang will rely more on hearing to pay attention to the surrounding situation.

But this place is unlikely to be visited by anyone.

Gao Guang let out a sigh of relief. He is in a complicated mood now, mainly because he is a little worried about John.

Although John's every word was sarcasm, even accusing Gao Guang of being a rookie, everyone understood that everything he said and did was to protect Gao Guang, a rookie.

In the end, John even said something that hurt morale and friendship, but Gao Guang felt that he said it to protect himself.

Gao Guang understood John's intention of defending him, but he didn't understand why John was so kind to him. After all, they had only known each other for half a month.

It is impossible not to be moved, and it is impossible not to care, but Gao Guang also knows that he is indeed a rookie and really cannot undertake the task of investigating the surrounding environment, so he is worried about John, but there is nothing he can do to help.

Still have to grow fast.

Gao Guang sighed secretly, and when he saw that the time was up to ten minutes, he picked up the walkie-talkie, pressed the launch button, and said softly: "Kung Fu Boy called, everything is normal, it's over."

"Captain received, everything is normal, over."

Ten minutes later, Gao Guang pressed the intercom again, and said softly: "Kung Fu Boy called, everything is normal, it's over."

"Captain received, everything is normal, over."

The dialogue was repeated twelve times, that is, after two hours, the dialogue became a three-way communication between the captain and the rubber plus highlights, because they acted separately.

Three hours later, when Gao Guang wanted to call again, he suddenly heard the captain's call.

"I am the captain, landed, the land is dry, over."

Gao Guang waited for a while, and waited for Eraser to reply to Frank's notification, and then whispered in the intercom: "Kung Fu Boy received it, everything is normal, it's over."

Another ten minutes passed, and when Gao Guang wanted to take the initiative to report again, Frank's urgent shout suddenly sounded in his earphones.

"Encounter! Enemy! Bottle cap shot! I'm starting to return, call for backup! Meet me, over!"

Accompanied by Frank's hasty shout on the walkie-talkie, there were also not dense but very clear gunshots.

And John didn't make any sound from the beginning to the end, although he also had a walkie-talkie.

　This time I can't say it's short, right? It's the third watch today, and I'm confidently asking for a monthly ticket, asking for everything.
