Xiao Zheng's analysis was well-founded, and Qian Sun nodded frequently. I totally agree with Xiao Zheng.
If you go out, you will be shot coldly, and you may also be attacked by Jiang Qing. Then, your best choice is to stay in the jungle. Wait until Wei Jiang breaks in...
But, will Wei Jiang rush in
"It's going to rain..." Xiao Zheng stretched out his palm and felt the suddenly cold air and the cool breeze.
Xiao Zheng, who has lived in the wild all year round, has extremely rich experience. He had expected a heavy rain from half an hour ago.
In fact, in Xiao Zheng's entire plan, after the sneak attack on Jiang Qing, he planned to follow the elite team and rush out of the forest together. Advance towards the only stronghold that provides food. Stealing enough food and water for ten people...
If you save some money, it will be enough for nearly thirty people in the team.
Of course, it was just to get rid of lunch. As for dinner—it’s really about chewing tree bark!
This is also the benefit and difficulty setting of actual combat exercises. There was food, but very little, just enough to fill the stomachs of one team. But for the warriors engaged in a tug-of-war, such a tiny amount of food may very well be the key to victory!
But unfortunately, Jiang Qing had already seen through Xiao Zheng's thoughts. How could he be taken advantage of and lose his troops to clear the way for Xiao Zheng
Moreover, even if he successfully rushed out, he might not be able to snatch water and food from Wei Jiang's mouth. In this case, let’s just go hungry together!
Boom!
Maybe God heard Xiao Zheng's whisper, and a thunder exploded in the air. Within seconds, the rain started pouring down. Rhythmic slaps hit the warriors' faces.
"call!"
Xiao Zheng exhaled a breath, then slowly stood up and gave orders to the soldiers: "Everyone, from this moment on, the battle really begins. Food and water are already in Wei Jiang's bag, so we will give them to him for free. Now, let’s go five kilometers deeper. Then we’ll look for favorable terrain—and hide.”
"Why are you hiding?" Qian Sun asked doubtfully.
Hiding in the forest
Hiding in the rain
This is worse than going head-to-head with an elite special teams team!
"Hibernation." Xiao Zheng pursed his lips and said. "Save your energy."
After that, he looked up at the sky and murmured: "This rain won't stop anytime soon..."
…
"Qian Sun is so wicked!" the vice-captain said angrily. "You actually fired a gun behind your back! How shameless!"
"A soldier never tires of deceit." Jiang Qing glanced around with cold eyes. As the only woman in the army, she was the most experienced and determined captain.
"Have the scouts come back?" Jiang Qing asked casually.
"They're all back." Vice Captain Hui reported. "The food stronghold has been defended by Wei Jiang's people. It is a chain defense. Once there is any movement, Wei Jiang's troops can all move in within a minute. It seems that the possibility of grabbing food is no longer high."
"In another hour, the food restrictions will be unlocked. It will be too late to grab them." Jiang Qing shook her head and made a quick decision. "Give it to them."
After saying that, Jiang Qing continued to ask: "Where is Xiao Zheng?"
"The scouts found no information." The deputy captain said slightly embarrassed. "I ran twice and couldn't find a single figure. The heavy rain washed away all traces. There was nothing the scouts could do."
"Missing?" Jiang Qing's eyes darkened and she said thoughtfully. "Is Xiao Zheng planning a sneak attack?"
"It's not impossible!" Vice Captain Shen Ning said. "Instead of being trapped in the forest and waiting to die, it's better to defeat them by surprise. We have no food, and neither do they. If we survive, we can starve to death without beating them!"
Jiang Qing shook his head and gave the order: "Order people to patrol seamlessly, and everyone takes turns to rest. Wait until the rain stops."
"Yes." The deputy captain decisively followed Jiang Qing's order.
…
"deadlock."
General Jiang pursed his lips slightly, holding a red rose cigarette between his old bark-like fingers. He said slowly: "It seems that no one will act rashly until the rain stops."
An old general told his subordinates: "Ask the Meteorological Bureau. When will this rain last?"
The subordinate was about to go out and make a phone call when General Qi smiled and said, "No need to ask. This rain will last until at least midnight."
After that, he put out the cigarette between his fingers and looked back at the generals: "It's lunch time. Let's go have a meal first?"
General Eagle was not in the mood to eat. First of all, he was concerned about the battle situation and wanted to pay attention to the battle situation at all times. Secondly, Wei Jiang finally gained the upper hand and got the food and water. Wouldn't running out to eat mean that you have lost your pride
But if you don't go, the traces will be exposed again. Troublesome. So he said cheerfully: "Let's go eat!"
All the generals swaggered out of the control room and headed to the Dragon Group canteen.
The food in the dragon group is quite good. With Xiao Zheng's financial support, it has been even better. However, a group of old generals were sitting around the table eating, but no one bothered General Qi with this. Nor dare.
"Xiao Zheng entered the depths of the forest. Even the scouts of the Dragon Group failed to find his whereabouts. It seems that they are planning to save their strength and fight to the end." A general said with a smile. "But they are already at a disadvantage. The method of conserving their physical strength is commendable. At least it proves that Xiao Zheng has commanding skills. He is not only good at shooting black guns."
There is something in these words. It sounds quite harsh.
General Eagle drank a glass of strong wine and grunted: "If you starve for a day and a night, you will become a soft-legged shrimp without beating. What's the use?"
"The food Wei Jiang received was barely enough to feed his troops twice. Does it make much sense?" another general countered.
"But they can wait to eat before taking action." General Eagle said solemnly. "A group of energetic warriors and a group of hungry veterans, can't you tell who is stronger?"
Everyone expressed their opinions and argued fiercely.
After lunch, everyone first went to the monitoring room to observe for a while. I found that the circles on the screen were completely silent. It looked extremely boring, so they simply went back to their rooms to take a lunch break. He just asked his subordinates to report any situation at any time.
8pm.
The generals ate a table full of meat and fish without any interest, and their conversations were less passionate and more anxious.
It rained continuously throughout the afternoon. It was as if the thunder god was angry and kept pouring heavy rain.
Without action, the generals naturally have nothing to talk about. After dinner, we made an appointment to go to the monitoring room together.
"The rain seems to have lightened up..." Jiang Qing, who was soaked all over, squinted at the sky. It was dark, but there was a faint moonlight emerging.
Although she found a place to shelter from the rain, the strong wind and heavy rain meant that unless she hid in the house, she could not block the heavy rain blowing from all directions.
One afternoon, the entire team was soaked in the rain.
Wei Jiang raised his hand to feel the raindrops that were getting smaller and smaller, and the wind became softer. He couldn't help but look back at the soldiers: "Eat! Drink water! Prepare to fight!"
