There is a reason why Yunnan and Guizhou in Guangxi are called the Hundred Thousand Mountains. These places are full of mountains.

One next to another, one after another. No one knows how many mountains there are here. Maybe one hundred thousand mountains is not an exaggerated number.

The sky is not clear for three days and the ground is not three feet flat. This is how the Han people describe this place.

Because it is located in the warm south, wherever there are mountains, there will be dense jungles.

There is no desert here, but there are more terrifying mountains and canyons.

Sometimes, I see that the enemy is just a hundred meters away on the other side. But I really want to kill him, only to realize that it will take a whole day to reach the other side.

I don’t have a map, I don’t have any ideas. I can’t even figure out the southeast, northwest, and northwest.

Monk Geng Jingzhong just led his men into the vast mountain forest rashly.

People say that there is no shortage of water in the forest, but if you really walk in the jungle, you will know that the most lacking thing in the jungle is water.

Walking in the jungle, you will smell rotten leaves mixed with rotting corpses, and other unknown smells.

The rotten smell went down the nose and into the lungs.

The dense branches and leaves blocked the sunlight, and it was sultry and sultry in the forest. It was extremely hot despite not being able to see the sunlight.

Don't look forward to rain, because sometimes it only rains for a few minutes. But sometimes, it rains for days.

There is no place to hide from the rain in the jungle.

It's easy to see a cave, you have to throw a smoke bomb into it first.

Then you will see leopards, tigers, even pythons, bears, etc. pop out.

Don't be surprised if you see a foot-long centipede.

As for those unknown poisonous insects, they are even more densely packed and I don’t know how many there are.

And you have to sincerely pray to God that water will not fill the hole. If water does fill in, congratulations.

A swarm of leeches can suck you dry!

The jungle after the rain is even more terrifying. The sun shines down and the jungle is as hot as a steamer.

There is humid air everywhere, and your whole body is sticky and greasy, but you just feel thirsty.

It's definitely not a good feeling to die of thirst in the humid air.

I really don't understand how the local indigenous people live in a place like this.

Sometimes, corpses are found lying on the roadside.

The corpse was not badly decomposed, but was chewed up to a pulp.

There is a kind of big black ant that specializes in eating fallen corpses on the road.

This kind of ant is so powerful that it can turn a complete human into a pile of complete bones in just a few dozen minutes.

It can be seen that it is not only the Han people who are not used to living here. In fact, the local indigenous people are not used to staying in the jungle either.

The harsh natural environment is not the ultimate test. Every night, there are countless eyes lurking in the darkness.

Blowpipes! Poison arrows, or unknown traps.

There were often sentries standing guard, and I only felt a pain in my neck. Then I started foaming at the mouth!

When you stand up to look for the enemy, you often can only look at the endless darkness and sigh.

"Enemy attack!" After an explosion, Shang Zhixin ran out of the tent.

There were black shadows running around everywhere, and soldiers fired their guns randomly.

Shang Zhixin immediately fell to the ground without even thinking about it.

God knows where these new recruits who have not been in the army for a long time will shoot. If they are killed by unknown grenades, then it will be too damn unjust.

I don't know who stepped on me, and my face came into direct contact with the rotten leaves on the ground.

"Bah! Bah! Bah...!" Shang Zhixin spit out the rotten leaves in his mouth. God knows whether this thing is poisonous or not.

"Don't run around, don't shoot around." Shang Zhixin yelled crazily, but there was no one around to listen to him.

"I am Shang Zhixin, get down! Everyone get down!"

This sound really worked. The nearby officers and soldiers fell down first, and then the people lying down spread outward like waves.

At dawn, Shang Zhixin looked at the corpses on the ground and was speechless. More than a hundred people had been lost!

More than half of them were killed by Aka rifles, and there were only a dozen enemy corpses.

This also shows how huge the casualties caused by the chaos caused by the sneak attack.

Shang Zhixin didn't speak, and neither did anyone else.

If you are a veteran, you will know that when encountering an enemy attack at night, you should lie on the ground and stay still.

Shoot everyone who is running!

It's a pity that the Marine Corps has been stationed overseas these years.

Military discipline was severely lax, and a lot of training that should have been delayed.

Furthermore, this battalion had many new recruits, which resulted in such consequences.

Shang Zhixin shook his head helplessly: "Give me the order, no one is allowed to move in the event of a night attack. Lie on the ground while I shoot everyone who runs."

Until the enemy situation is lifted!"

"promise!"

There was a light rain last night, and when the sun just came out in the morning, it felt a little cool.

But at noon, the entire jungle turned into a huge steamer.

Shang Zhixin raised his head and looked at the jungle shaded by the dense canopy of trees. He couldn't understand why it was so hot even though the sun couldn't shine in.

We were attacked at night last night and everyone didn't sleep well.

In the morning, I ate some dry food listlessly, poured a pot of boiling water from the cooking team, and started the day's march.

No matter how bad the environment was, the living regulations of the Ming army were strictly enforced.

This may be the reason why only a few people in the army are sick!

While walking on the road, many soldiers were dozing off.

The exhausted people took a nap against the big trees on the roadside.

This is very dangerous, but Shang Zhixin knows how powerful it is. Two days ago, he saw such a soldier on the roadside.

Shang Zhixin pushed him, and the soldier's head immediately fell to the ground.

There were countless ants crawling on the skin, and even the skin could not be seen. His head fell to the ground, and the ants were scattered.

The oily yellow subcutaneous tissue and dark red muscles inside were exposed.

As for the inside of the eye socket, flies have already laid eggs inside. You can see with the naked eye that small insects are crawling inside the eye socket.

Shang Zhixin understood when he saw the leech clinging to the tree.

While this guy was sleeping, I don't know how many leeches crawled on him.

This unlucky guy was sucked alive by a leech.

When leeches suck blood, they can secrete an anesthetic that makes people feel no pain.

So this guy turned into a mummy in his sleep.

The full leech walked away contentedly, and then it was the turn of the big black ants.

They swarmed up and chewed the unfortunate guy into a mummy.

"Teacher! We can't keep chasing like this. We can't keep chasing like this.

Those chieftains are fine, but we are going to be overwhelmed." The chief of staff gasped and carefully suggested to Shang Zhixin.

"Dude!

If we don't drive out all these natives, the commander-in-chief will never let us go.

You know, the main purpose of this counter-rebellion is to uproot the local chieftain forces."

Shang Zhixin was also in a dilemma. He knew very well why Li Xiao wanted to go to war so aggressively and even personally supervised the counter-insurgency war.

"Master!

I don't know if the chieftain forces can be uprooted, but I know that if the army continues like this, it will probably collapse.

Look at the soldiers, their faces are all sallow. And there are so many leeches here that even the big guys can't have a good rest.

We still have a chance to withdraw before we enter the jungle too deep."

It was a matter of life and death for the entire division, so the chief of staff could only make a tough suggestion.

Shang Zhixin bit his molars!

There is really nothing we can do. We have been out of supplies since yesterday.
