Chapter 138 Road to Escape
Fortunately, the American soldiers intended to capture the two of them and did not throw grenades at them.
Surprisingly, the two of them were lucky enough not to suffer any injuries, but the intense battle made them a little exhausted, and their clothes were torn by being caught on the branches of the bushes.
Of course, the Americans wanted to capture them because they were women. You can guess what they were thinking with your toes.
Zhang Dongliang threw two tactical backpacks and guns and ammunition to Lin Lizhen and Li Caizhu, telling them to hurry up and pack up their weapons and ammunition and retreat quickly.
There were two people setting up an ambush on the left front road, so Zhang Dongliang did not plan to go through it. He planned to go around from the right front where he had left, and then head deeper into the jungle.
Others are already ambushing you there, and if you force your way in, aren't you just asking for trouble?
Zhang Dongliang couldn't even guarantee that he could get through safely by himself, let alone with two South Vietnamese women, one of whom was injured.
I have been blessed in this world and have always been lucky, but this may not be the case in other worlds. I cannot take this kind of luck for granted.
By the time Zhang Dongliang and his three companions carefully made a big circle from the right side and headed deep into the jungle, Thomas and George were still waiting in ambush.
"George, we've been waiting for so long, but there's no movement. Did the leader catch those two South Vietnamese women? Fuck, they're fucking South Vietnamese women over there, and we're just waiting here."
"Thomas, let's wait a little longer. The boss has a bad temper and he's good at scolding people."
They didn't bring their squad radio, which was on the sergeant and had been confiscated by Zhang Dongliang.
The US military's current military radios are only distributed to squad leaders, not to soldiers.
After waiting in vain, Thomas and George returned to the starting point and were surprised to find that there was no one there, and the guide who should have been waiting there was also gone.
"Boss, Frank, Big Black, Little Black?" The two called out to their teammates, but no one answered. Thomas and George looked at each other and felt something was wrong, so they quickly retreated to the rear.
When the terrified Thomas and George returned to the camp and reported that all the other team members were missing, the superior commander certainly didn't believe it. How could this be possible?
The commander of the forward camp immediately sent out a team to search, but after a long search, no trace was found, neither alive nor dead.
This became a strange mystery.
The camp commander grabbed his hair and said, "Fuck~~ How the hell should I write this report~~"
Later, such incidents happened many times in this area, and this jungle highland was also called an ominous place.
In the jungle, Zhang Dongliang and the other two quickly fled to the top of the mountain. They were still in danger of being surrounded, so they had to move quickly.
"Ouch." Lin Lizhen screamed and fell to the ground.
She already had an injury on her shoulder, and after the fierce battle in the morning and the long journey, her body was already exhausted and she could not hold on any longer.
Li Caizhu, who was supporting Lin Lizhen, was also dragged and staggered.
Seeing that the two of them were so tired, Zhang Dongliang decided to rest for 15 minutes, took out the individual rations, ate something from the kettle, and quickly recovered his strength.
Due to the lack of detailed reference, Zhang Dongliang had difficulty judging his current location.
Based on the US military radio communications he monitored, he knew that there were US troops on three sides of his current position. Only in the mountain jungle near Laos on the west side were there no US troops, so he was not completely surrounded.
Zhang Dongliang estimated that his current location should be between 15 and 17 degrees north latitude.
To the west in Laos is the famous Hu Zhiming Trail, which was an important channel for North Vietnam to transport military supplies to the southern guerrillas.
I don’t know why the US military’s large-scale clearing operation this time was so large-scale, but Hu Zhiming Trail should be an important target.
15 minutes later, "Have you rested enough? Let's go immediately. We must escape the enemy's encirclement. Once we are surrounded, we will be in trouble."
Zhang Dongliang reached out and pulled up Lin Lizhen, and put both of their tactical backpacks on his back to lighten their burden and thus speed up their progress.
"Thank you, Comrade Zhang." Lin Lizhen stumbled as she walked. Her physical strength had reached its limit.
It was not until after 5 p.m. that they, exhausted, prepared to find a place to camp, estimating that no more American soldiers would come up at this point.
"You guys rest here for a while, I'll prepare the tent for the camping."
Lin Lizhen and Li Caizhu were so tired that they sat on the ground and didn't want to move. They could only smile gratefully at Zhang Dongliang.
Zhang Dongliang pretended to take out a machete from his backpack and chop down the tree, but he was actually using the power of the small world to cut off the branches.
After preparing a few branches, start building the tent frame, then take out the rainproof cloth to cover it, and a simple tent is ready.
American soldiers also have rainproof cloth in their backpacks, which they can just spread on the ground to block out moisture.
In such a tropical jungle, it is absolutely impossible to camp without setting up a tent. Not to mention that it may rain at any time, the humidity of the air is unbearable.
Zhang Dongliang asked Lin Lizhen and Li Caizhu to go into the tent to rest while he went to check the surroundings. He just happened to have an immature idea and wanted to try it out.
Zhang Dongliang walked out of the tent and walked about 50 meters in the direction he came from. He planned to dig a trench here.
Zhang Dongliang stood there and called upon the power of the small world, trying to dig a trench one meter wide and two meters deep on the ground.
The result was successful. Starting from the front of his toes, a deep trench about one meter wide, two meters deep, and five meters long appeared.
In his excitement, he dug nearly 50 meters in a circular shape around the tent in one breath, and then he felt exhausted. So he took a break and continued digging at night.
After draining the mental power, it can promote its growth. This is a method he tried out yesterday.
Digging trenches can also prevent the enemy from sneaking up at night, killing two birds with one stone.
Third, he had another experiment to do. All the soil he dug out was placed in the small world. He planned to use the soil to make a three-sided shelter.
He tried to open the bunker. The ground suddenly shook, and a three-sided single-person bunker with a one-meter-thick soil layer appeared in front of him.
The thickness of the soil layer is so great that even heavy machine gun bullets have difficulty penetrating it. Zhang Dongliang is very satisfied with his idea.
You can release it at any time when defending against the enemy, which greatly increases your survivability on the battlefield. As expected, learning and applying in war is the fastest way to grow.
When you suddenly encounter the enemy on the battlefield and suddenly release such a thing, you can imagine how helpless the enemy will be.
Unless the enemy throws the grenade accurately into the middle of the bunker. But that is impossible, and my mental strength is not vegetarian.
Seeing that the situation is not good, won’t you run away?
Even the bodies of the American soldiers from the small world were specially stored in the time and space static zone. Since he wanted to create a supernatural event for the American soldiers, he might as well make it a big one.
