Chapter 137 Entering Myitkyina

When Tan Ren said this, I woke up like a dream. Song Qiaoming on the side said anxiously: "Old Zhou, what is going on, please explain."

Zhou Xuanye showed an apologetic expression on his face, and said: "Sorry, this is a personal grievance, and I am also very sorry that you are involved."

Shunzi said: "Then there must be a solution now? If they keep following us and making trouble, wouldn't it be..."

Ermao nodded quickly and said, "I could tell from the battle just now that this group of people really wanted to kill people. This place is sparsely populated, and killing people is too easy. If you let them follow behind, sooner or later you will be killed." They found an opportunity." After all, the enemy is in the dark and I am in the light, Ermao's analysis is not unreasonable.

Zhou Xuanye's face was not very good-looking, and he said that he would deal with this matter. It was getting late, so we should rest on the spot. After all, we have been walking for a day and a night. Even if we are interrupted halfway, it is impossible to continue walking. Not allowed.

Immediately afterwards, Zhou Xuanye took out his phone. The signal in this place was not good, so he simply climbed up a tree to make a call. At first I didn’t know who he was calling for, but soon, through the conversation between Zhou Xuanye and Dingfu, I guessed The identity of the person on the other end of the call.

It should be Fu Nan, Zhou Xuanye is calling him.

"Don't make trouble, we'll talk about your business when we come back." In the end, Zhou Xuanye ended with this sentence. After hanging up the phone, he got off the tree, rubbed his temples wearily, and said, "The group We don’t have to worry about people leaving, we can just finish the task with peace of mind.”

"Brother Zhou, have you promised him?"

Zhou Xuanye glanced at me, with a look on his face that you don't understand me at all, and said: "How is it possible, this is a tactic to delay the attack, we can't let that bunch of flies follow us all the time." We took turns to rest, and the next day just after dawn, we got up, ate something hastily, and the group set off with their gear on their backs. Everyone wanted to leave this ghost place as soon as possible.

Sometimes, what is really scary is not the dangerous natural environment, but the crowd.Although the environment of this primitive jungle is not bad, the people stationed here gave me the urge not to stay for a moment, and just wanted to enter Myitkyina as soon as possible.

In the evening and afternoon of that day, we entered the Burmese area. Since it is a primitive jungle, there is no clear dividing line of national boundaries. Everyone estimated it based on our time and itinerary.After entering this area, the surrounding area is really deserted. The further we go, the worse the environment is. There is a damp and rotten smell in the air. To be on the safe side, we all put on gas masks. None of them could see their faces, they could only see their eyes, and they spoke through gas masks, and their voices were muffled.

The trees here are very thick and tall, and the kind of big trees that can only be embraced by several people can be seen everywhere. You can't even see the soil under your feet. The dead branches and leaves are piled up layer after layer. The leaves are very rotten, and when you step on them, they sink in. When you pull out the legs, they are covered with mud. Although you can't smell the smell, you can tell by the color of the mud that it must be very smelly.

That's all, the key is that there are many small creatures in the mud, some unknown tiny worms mixed in the mud, brought out together with the mud, wriggling on the legs, not to mention how disgusting the scene was .

Tang Linlin insisted on following her before, so she probably wouldn't be able to cry if she really came.

Soon, everyone found some sticks and held them in their hands. When they walked, they first used the sticks to explore the way ahead, so that they didn't step on the ground again.Before we set off, we had done our homework in advance, so we were prepared for the environmental conditions in the Burmese jungle. There are piles of rotten leaves, poisonous miasma, and many invisible swamps. trick.In the Chinese expeditionary force, a large number of people died of diseases caused by poisonous miasma, and the rest was swamp.

The Myitkyina jungle area is known as the "treasure house of animals and plants". There are large wild animals such as elephants, rhinos, brown bears, black bears, leopards, bison, and wild boars. monitor lizard, etc.
But these large creatures can actually be avoided, and the most unavoidable ones are insects, such as flower mosquitoes, poisonous spiders, mountain leech, etc., and they can be seen almost all the time.We did enough homework, we wore long hiking boots, and the cuffs and necklines of our trousers and clothes were tightly closed, which prevented most of the areas that could be attacked by poisonous insects.

In the jungle, the mountain leech is a scary thing.

The leech can be found everywhere, but the leech here is big and there are a lot of them. Song Qiaoming told us that his grandfather would often tell them about some things during the expedition. Among them, the mountain leech made Song Qiaoming The image is profound.

At that time, some of the female soldiers who retreated into the jungle had menstruation on their bodies, and the smell of blood attracted leeches, which made people crazy.There was a female soldier who came up the next morning and found that her companion was lying on the ground with a pale face and stiff. When she took off her clothes, she found that her body was covered with leeches, especially her genitals, which were swollen and swollen. drum.Due to various reasons such as physical strength, the female soldiers of the expeditionary army were almost wiped out.

This is also one of the reasons why Tan Ren resolutely refused to let Tang Linlin come. This jungle is a place of near death for men, let alone women.

Our group of people marched in the jungle fully armed. Due to the heavy load and the uncomfortable gas mask on the face, everyone talked less. As we walked, we paid attention to whether there were any bones of the expeditionary army around.

Of course, we found nothing. Even if there were bones, they had already been covered by layers of fallen leaves.Our main purpose is to find the three remains in the tree hole.

The plants in this place are very luxuriant, Zhou Xuanye suddenly let out a sigh as he was walking, then turned around, headed to the right, squatted down again, and took out his dagger, as if he was digging something on the ground.The rest of us took a closer look and found that there were not so many fallen leaves in this slightly higher position, and a strange plant grew on the ground, which looked like a pineapple.

After Tan Ren dug it out of the soil, I found that it was indeed a pineapple, the wild kind, but the appearance of the pineapple we usually see is somewhat different.Zhou Xuanye directly peeled off the skin to reveal the flesh inside. Although he didn't smell the smell, just looking at the quality of the flesh made people want to eat it.

The environment of this place looks harsh to humans, but to plants, this place is a paradise for survival, so the growth water is sufficient, the flesh is delicate, and the taste is absolutely incomparable outside.Zhou Xuanye divided the glass, and we each ate a small piece and continued on our way.

There are a lot of wild fruits and vegetables in this place. When the expeditionary army was short of food and clothing, they survived by relying on these wild animals.

We went until the evening, and found a place with slightly higher ground to camp.Because the surrounding trees were too dense and the dead leaves were thick, we couldn't make a fire at all. We only hung camp lamps and sprinkled some homemade sulfur water around to repel insects and snakes.

I set up a tent at night, and when I took off my clothes, there were some small bugs in the folds or crevices, and there were one or two leeches, which drove me crazy.After cleaning the things on the clothes, we pulled the tent tightly after entering the tent. Except for the ventilation holes on the side, the tent was completely closed.

Due to the large number of people, we used a big tent with four people. In this tent, there were me, Zhou Xuanye, Tan Renji and Song Qiaoming. We divided the vigil into two teams, and each person kept watch for an hour and a half. Song Qiaoming and I It's the last shift, so it's still early.

After a long day of hiking, it feels so good to lie down in the tent and get into the sleeping bag now.Tan Ren and Zhou Xuanye were writing and drawing on paper, calculating our progress. According to their estimates and our current speed, it will take at least five days to enter the Savage Mountain area.

In fact, if you simply calculate the straight-line distance, it won't take that long at all, but the environment here determines the forward speed.

Yeren Mountain is located at the junction of China, India and Myanmar, with high mountains and steep mountains, turbulent flows and valleys, stretching for thousands of miles.

Where the primeval forest is densely covered with grass and vines all over the mountains and plains, if there is no pioneer, it is absolutely difficult to move an inch. Although we have not officially entered the Savage Mountain area, the surrounding dense vegetation is already too lush.

In it, people's sight is suppressed to the extreme, and you can often only see a distance of about one meter, and one meter away is often the unique broad-leaved vegetation of the tropical rainforest.There is no road here at all, we are walking on the 'wild road', relying on the compass to shuttle through this forest with no road at all, from time to time we will see a colorful snake in the distance, at this time, we have to make a detour quickly .

Under such circumstances, five days is actually the fastest speed.
