Chapter 631: Ambush in the Dark Night Jungle
"We can't waste time. I'm afraid that the clues we found will lose value again!" Wang Si said clearly.
Today, they were all looking for needles in the haystack in the woods. Not only did they waste time, but they also made their brothers overdraw their strength. He didn't want to do this again tomorrow.
"Okay, let's continue to search!" He Guoqing had no choice but to respond obediently when he heard Wang Si insisting, and then said to Wang Si, "We all set off torches, otherwise this dark and lit-up will be tripped by these messy stones even if we don't encounter Japanese devils. I don't want to lose troops like this without fighting!"
"Yes, but the number of torches cannot be too many, just three are good!" Wang Si gave a rigid rule. In his opinion, the more torches, the larger the target, the more likely it is to attract the attention of the Japanese.
In order to ensure the safety of the team, he can only appropriately reduce the number of torches and reduce the target as much as possible.
"Yes!" He Guoqing immediately responded, and then called on the brothers beside him to start raising torches. Wang Si was the captain, and they would do whatever he wanted.
So in the jungle under the night sky, three torches provided some lighting for Wang Si and their search, so that they could barely see the ground clearly in the dark.
But at this moment, a group of Japanese troops appeared in the forest opposite. They were the Bamboo Squad that was responsible for collecting Japanese corpses and buried on the spot.
Originally, Takeshita's team was responsible for this task together with Sato's team. Without catching up with Wang Si and the others, they could only return to deal with the Japanese corpses. However, the temporary brigade headquarters issued an order to let their squadron go back to participate in other battles in time.
However, because the task of burying the Japanese corpses here is also very important, in order to prevent the Japanese who died here from being treated as wild wolves' meals, the Japanese squadron leader asked Takeshita's team to stay for treatment, and other troops followed him to other battlefields.
At this time, Takeshita finished his work and led the Japanese army to go back to meet with his squadron headquarters. However, the forest was too big, and it was night again, and he lost his way for a while.
Takeshita could only temporarily stop the team and rest, and arrange a warning post to guard the surroundings as soon as possible to ensure the safety of their team.
But at this time, they found that the light of Wang Si and the others appeared and faintly in the forest. They reported it to Takeshita in time.
Takeshita immediately called all the Japanese under his subordinates to take guns, set up a battle formation, and surrounded Wang Si and the others. Seeing this attitude, he wanted to take advantage of Wang Si and the others' inattention, and arrest all the people with torches as the center.
Takeshita wanted to figure out who was under the torches? If they were their own people, they could naturally meet with them quickly and then go to find their large troops together. But if they were not theirs, they could also take the initiative first and take the lead while controlling the situation.
Anyway, no matter who the person on the other side was doing this, it was almost the same for Takeshita, so he did not hesitate at all. After discovering the situation, he immediately organized a team to encircle him.
In the jungle in the dark night, Wang Si suddenly felt murderous intent around him and his chest was so tight that he felt uneasy. Although he found something abnormal every day, all of his reactions made him feel very uneasy, as if something big happened.
"Stop!" Finally, Wang Si had no way to lead the team to continue walking, and immediately stopped the team from continuing to move forward.
"Captain, what's wrong? Is there anything wrong?" He Guoqing looked around at the first time. There was a quiet place around him without any sound. So he came to Wang Si incomprehensible, wondering why Wang Si wanted to stop his brothers from continuing to move forward this time.
"There is a situation!" Wang Si didn't know how he should explain, but he just felt that the danger had come to his side, and it was very likely that something would explode beside them.
"The surroundings are very quiet, nothing is wrong!" After hearing Wang Si's words, He Guoqing listened to the sounds around him again, but the result was the same. He did not hear anything wrong, so he felt that Wang Si was too nervous and had a serious mental effect.
"No, it's too quiet, so quiet that there is no sound of insects. It's deadly and silent, without any movement. This is too abnormal!" Wang Si said immediately, as if he could hear something unusual from the listening and said to He Guoqing in time.
"Hey? It's really haha. There was no sound of a single insect. It's so strange!" After Wang Si said this, He Guoqing really felt something was wrong.
This season, there are many bugs in the forest, and of course there are many people chirping at night, but there are no sounds in the forest at this moment, which makes people feel strange.
The bugs in the forest cannot suddenly disappear. There is only one explanation for this situation where there is no sound suddenly, that is, the bugs feel danger. Out of their instinct to protect themselves, they will restrain their voices and avoid being discovered.
"Let the brothers extinguish the torches immediately and hide them on the spot!" Wang Si immediately said to He Guoqing beside him, asking He Guoqing to immediately issue an order to let the team enter a state of combat readiness.
The torches are very likely to be the center of their exposure, so Wang Si first let someone extinguish the torches, and then the brothers threw them into their own search for cover to hide, and all the rifles in their hands were loaded with bullets, ready for battle.
Takeshita didn't know how they exposed their whereabouts. The opponents wiped out the torches before they got close enough, and were likely ready for battle.
But he was shooting the arrow here without turning back. The team had all surrounded him. If he retreated again, it seemed to have a great damage to his prestige. He would have no way to command the battle next time.
Moreover, there were only three torches in front of him. He felt that there would not be many opponents. They had a full team. It would not be difficult to destroy the Chinese army with three torches.
However, night battles are not their strengths and are easily at a disadvantage, so he decided to continue to let the Japanese soldiers narrow the encirclement, temporarily surround Wang Si and the others in the middle, and then wait for dawn.
As soon as it dawns, they will be able to deal with their opponents. Therefore, he did not stop the team from continuing to get closer to the past, but asked the soldiers to continue to surround the front, and he wanted to narrow the encirclement as much as possible.
