Chapter 357 Forcing China into a Predicament? A Familiar Feeling!
When you fly over East Africa, you will see a huge slit on the ground, which is the East African Rift Valley, known as the scar of the world.

Before seeing the East African Rift Valley with their own eyes, many people imagine it as a dark, gloomy, and terrifying canyon with extremely steep sides and a bottomless abyss in the middle.

The truth is that the East African Rift Valley is indeed over a thousand meters deep, but it's important to know that the narrowest distance between the two sides of the rift is tens of kilometers, and the widest part is even over two hundred kilometers!
To describe it in the most intuitive way, the rift valley is flanked by boundless plateaus, with a huge basin in the middle.

Standing on the edge of the rift valley and looking into the distance, dense primeval forests cover the rolling mountains, and cacti with bright flowers bloom on the hillsides. Nearby, there is a vast grassland with shrubs and wild grass everywhere.

The bottom of the rift valley is flat and open, with lush pastures, verdant forests, and vibrant life.

In addition, the East African Rift Valley is also a natural reservoir, with several volcanic lakes left over from millions of years ago, the most famous of which is Lake Victoria, located 100 kilometers away from the Kingdom of the Thousand Hills.

One of the tributaries of this largest freshwater lake in Africa flows into the rainforest where the fighting is taking place.

The moonlight is bright tonight, casting a silvery glow on the lake and making the forests on both banks appear less gloomy.

Buzz!

The roar of an engine filled the air as a speedboat darted past, breaking the tranquility of the lake.

The speedboat seemed to know the area well, stopping directly at a bend. An officer dressed in Congolese military uniform then disembarked and waited silently on the spot.

A few dozen seconds later, the light of a flashlight flickered on and off in the forest in front of the officer, and the officer immediately walked over without hesitation.

After venturing several dozen meters deeper into the forest, a temporary campsite came into view.

Calling it a camp is not quite accurate; it should be more like a temporary resting place. A dozen or so figures were sitting or standing, with water and dry food placed on the open ground in the middle.

"I am Gary, the commander of the 1st Independent Regiment of the Congolese Self-Defense Forces. Is Commander Byrne here?" the officer asked in a low voice as he stepped forward.

"What is it?" A voice rang out, and a middle-aged white man who was sitting against the tree roots stood up.

Bourne was of medium build and had an ordinary appearance; he was the kind of ordinary man who wouldn't attract anyone's attention if he stood on the street.

However, Gary showed no disrespect and stepped forward to salute.

Because he knew just how terrifying the special forces team led by Bourne was; they were capable of going head-to-head with China's elite troops and still managing to escape unscathed!

If it weren't for these people sabotaging the communications of the Congolese military, Congo would probably have surrendered by now.

“Commander Byrne, our ambush point has been determined. My superiors sent me here to ask when we can lure the Chinese troops there?” Gary asked.

Byrne frowned: "We don't have enough manpower. If we don't get support, we'll probably be wiped out before we even leave this rainforest."

"Huh? How could this happen?!"

Gary was taken aback. "Commander Byrne, didn't you clash with them head-on last time? The intelligence said you successfully inflicted heavy losses on them..."

"Severe damage? Head-on confrontation?"

Bourne chuckled self-deprecatingly, "It was just a few people killed during a sneak attack, how did you all make it out to be like this?"

"But the higher-ups said that your strength is absolutely no weaker than any special forces unit in China, not even the Hunters!"

"Hunters? Do you know that the unit that's chasing my men over there like wild rabbits right now is the Hunters?"

Byrne pointed into the depths of the rainforest, “The first unit we encountered should be Sirius. Those people are not good at jungle warfare, which gave us an opportunity, but it was precisely because of this that we attracted the hunters!”

These people act like they're home once they enter the rainforest! So far, I've lost almost 20 of my men!

Gary looked shocked: "Are hunters really as strong as the legends say?"

"My men have been fighting the enemy in this rainforest for a day and a night, and so far, the enemy has suffered zero casualties! What do you think?"

As he spoke, Byrne suddenly reached out and gouged out his left eye, breathed on the eyeball, took out a velvet cloth and carefully wiped it before putting it back in.

Gary was somewhat surprised to find that Bourne's left eyeball was emitting a faint red glow in the darkness.

Noticing Gary's gaze, Byrne smiled and said, "Do you know how I lost this eye? It was blinded by the first Yama back then. Otherwise, how would I have joined the Department of Defense's Project O?"

“Commander Byrne, you just said you wanted reinforcements. Could you give me a specific number?” Gary hadn’t forgotten the purpose of his trip.

"Looks like you really want to wipe out the Chinese army," Byrne said with a playful expression. "Aren't you afraid of actually angering China and getting a few packages sent to you?"

"Commander Byrne is joking. Isn't this what your country wants to see? Everyone's demands are the same: to force China to intervene personally by any means necessary!"

Gary chuckled and said, "Only by spreading the news that the Chinese troops have been completely annihilated can we achieve our goal."

"Understood, our role is to act as bait."

Byrne calmly stated the fate of his group, then looked at Gary, "The hunters have arrived, so no amount of reinforcements is too much!"

Gary nodded: "I understand. I'll send a battalion over in two hours, followed by two more battalions!"

"I'd better hurry."

Bourne's left eye flashed red again. "They're less than fifty kilometers away."

Click!

"Look carefully, everyone. This is the safety mechanism. After you break it off, pull here, and it'll be cocked!"

Chen Rong stood on the roof of the car, surrounded by monkeys.

"Look, here's the trigger. When you see an enemy, point the barrel at him. I'll demonstrate!"

Da da da!
The gunshot startled the monkeys, who instinctively tried to flee back into the forest.

"All of you, get back here!"

Chen Rong said irritably, "You're all so stupid! I've already taught you twice. If you still can't learn it, I'm going to get angry!"

"Oh oh oh!"

An older-looking monkey called out, then boldly approached the truck bed and grabbed an AK.

All the monkeys were watching it.

Chen Rong's tone was full of encouragement: "Yes, hold the handguard with one hand and release the safety and pull the bolt with the other."

"Don't fucking point your gun at me! And don't point it at the other monkeys, point it outwards!"

"Yes, that's it, pull the trigger!"

Da da!

"Very good, well done!" Chen Rong patted the monkey on the head. "You all saw it, it's very simple!"

"Oh oh oh!"

"Oh oh oh!"

Gradually, more and more monkeys came forward, each picking up a gun.

Boom!

Da da da!
clap clap!

Boom boom boom!
Suddenly, gunshots and explosions rang out at the edge of the forest, and the flickering flames illuminated the night.

A dozen minutes later, Chen Rong looked at the monkeys who were standing obediently in front of him with guns on their backs and nodded with satisfaction. "Each of you monkeys take two of these grenades. When you see someone, pull the pin and throw them out."

"Ignore those wearing the same clothes as me. The enemy's clothes and skin color are different, understand?"

"Whoa whoa!"

All the monkeys responded in unison.

Chen Rong waved his hand and said, "Go!"

The next moment, dozens of monkeys darted into the forest and disappeared.

Chen Rong calmly arranged his equipment, activated all his skills on the panel, and moved towards the location where a group of green dots were gathered.

About seven or eight kilometers into the rainforest from where Chen Rong parked, there is a stream.

Dozens of fully armed soldiers were resting on the grass by the stream, and several sentries were keeping a close watch on the surrounding area from each direction.

Although it was night, the summer rainforest was incredibly hot and humid. Huang Ping, carrying his helmet and wiping away sweat, walked towards Huo Jianhua, who was washing his face by the stream.
"Hey Lao Huo, the captain's been gone so long, why isn't he back yet? Shouldn't we catch up with him?"

Huo Jianhua wiped his face: "What's the rush? The captain said before he left that he would notify us when we were needed!"

"But there's no signal here, how can he contact us?"

"How about this, Second Brother, you take some men and capture a prisoner, then we'll ask him where the enemy is now," said Mao Xiaomao, who was sitting cross-legged not far away.

Huang Ping rolled his eyes: "Where am I supposed to find prisoners? Didn't you see how excited the captain was when he came in? I didn't see him this happy even during the New Year! By now, they've probably wiped out all the enemy outposts nearby!"

"Stop! Command!"

Suddenly, a low shout from not far away made everyone's nerves tense up.

The soldiers who were resting immediately grabbed their guns, rolled over, and spread out, forming a defensive formation with hundreds of gun barrels pointing in all directions. The entire area instantly became completely silent.

Huo Jianhua made a gesture to Huang Ping, who immediately crouched down and moved closer to the spot where the noise had come from.

He had already recognized the voice; it was Zuo Meng's.

"Zuo Meng, what's going on?"

Huang Ping came behind a tree and asked in a low voice.

Zuo Meng was a sentry, and Huang Ping had personally chosen that position, so he knew very well that Zuo Meng was no more than three meters away from him.

"Captain, I just saw a figure climb up a tree!" Zuo Meng's voice rang out from the bushes, "right in my seven o'clock direction."

Huang Ping immediately moved the gun barrel over and turned on the thermal imaging.

Behind the dense branches, a figure with a tail was crouching there motionless.

Huang Ping breathed a sigh of relief: "Damn, it's a monkey!"

Oh oh oh!
Wow!
The next moment, as the branches swayed, a long-tailed monkey with a tuft of white hair on its chin jumped down from the tree trunk, tilting its head to look at Huang Ping.

Huang Ping found it strange. How could this monkey be so bold? Wasn't it afraid of people?

"Holy crap! Captain, watch out, it has a gun!" Zuo Meng's voice suddenly rang out.

Huang Ping: "???"

Upon closer inspection, half a gun barrel was indeed sticking out from the back of the long-tailed monkey.

At this moment, Huo Jianhua and the others were also attracted by the commotion and, upon hearing this, all pointed their guns at the long-tailed monkey.

"Oh!"

With so many guns pointed at him, the long-tailed monkey immediately raised his hands.

Huo Jianhua, with his sharp eyes, immediately noticed what the monkey was holding and was completely astonished:

"Holy crap! It has a grenade!"

"Damn it! Where did this monkey get its weapon?"

"Shoot! Take it down!"

"Oh oh oh!"

The long-tailed monkey got anxious and started gesturing wildly, even putting a grenade on the ground and standing up straight, saluting with its right hand.

Everyone: "???"

Mao Xiaomao leaned closer, looking on in surprise: "Wow! This monkey can even salute! Is it some kind of spirit?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly realized something and looked at Huang Ping: "Second brother, do you have a familiar feeling?"

Huang Ping's expression also became complicated, and he nodded: "I know it all too well!"

Before setting off for Africa, the hunters were often tormented by the hawk-hound duo that returned from the bear hunt.

Since Huo Jianhua had arrived early, he hadn't seen the intelligent black cat and golden eagle before. He asked in confusion, "What are you two talking about? What do you mean by familiar?"

Huang Ping: "Let's take a look at the gun on this monkey first."

After saying that, he stepped forward, took the AK from the long-tailed monkey's back, carefully examined the serial number, and said in a deep voice, "This is the gun from the front-line base warehouse..."

boom!
Before he could finish speaking, an explosion suddenly came from not far away.

"Oh oh oh!"

Faintly, there were also a few monkey calls.

Everyone's expression changed, and Huo Jianhua immediately ordered, "Let's go, let's go take a look!"

"Oh!"

The long-tailed monkey seemed to have received some information. It snatched the AK back, slung it over its shoulder, picked up a grenade from the ground, and disappeared into the bushes with a few leaps.

"Follow!"

The three company commanders each led their own teams, forming an offensive formation and moving rapidly toward the direction of the explosion.

Soon, the smell of blood and gunpowder filled everyone's nostrils.

Two figures, one standing and one lying down, appeared on the infrared imaging device. Huang Ping made a gesture to Mao Xiaomao, who understood and immediately took out a stun grenade, ready to throw it.

Just as Mao Xiaomao finished counting down and was about to release the stun grenade, a familiar voice suddenly came from behind the bushes in front: "Don't move, it's me!"

"Yama?!!!"

Mao Xiaomao was both surprised and delighted. He immediately stood up and rushed over, and the others quickly followed.

But in an open space ahead, two corpses had been blown to pieces, and Chen Rong, fully armed, was looking down at the only survivor.

The other party was a white man whose legs below the knees had been blown off, and he was being held to the head by two monkeys with AKs.

Chen Rong glanced back at them and said, "Captain Huo, these three people were trying to get close to you to scout, so I left them with a tongue."
