"Oxtail, you imitate the call of a grouse very well!" Deerhead praised a tribal hunter behind the bushes.
"That's natural. I rely on this trick to catch hundreds of grouse every year. How could I get the most beautiful flower in the forest without this trick?"
At this point, Ushio suddenly fell silent, his eyes filled with hatred. He thought again of his wife's tragic death.
That day he went hunting with two tribal hunters. The ice and snow melted, and many hibernating prey emerged from tree holes with hazy sleepy eyes, eager to find food.
At this time, the tribe's food is almost exhausted, and they are also in urgent need of prey. This is a good time to go hunting.
But when they were about to return to the tribe, what they saw was billowing smoke from the tribe.
What greeted Ushio's eyes was a scene like hell. All the tribe's hunters died at the fence, with big holes in their chests made by muskets.
The tribal children were stabbed to death and their bodies were hung on the wooden poles of the fence. Niuwei was heartbroken when he saw all this. He hurried to his tent.
Before he could get there, he saw his wife lying naked at the door of the tent, her hands still in a forward grabbing position, her fingers stained red with blood. Her eyes were wide and staring ahead.
She was already dead, but Ushio felt that she was still calling him for help. She was still telling him to seek revenge against these devils.
After burying relatives of the tribe with their companions, they followed the footprints and finally caught up with a group of Rakshasa ghosts.
After all, there were only three of them. When ambushing two Rakshasa ghosts who were leaving the team, one of them accidentally fired the flintlock gun in his hand.
Although they killed the two Rakshasa ghosts, they also exposed themselves. A group of Rakshasa ghosts immediately chased them.
Among the last three, Ushio, who was the weakest and the smartest, escaped under the cover of the other two. He still remembered that at the end, the two tribe brothers told him to find someone to avenge the tribe.
In this way, Oxtail followed a group of fleeing people to Temple Street. Many hunters came here to exchange for food last autumn. Oxtail naturally knew this place. Everyone knew that there was an army here and defeated the Rakshasa ghost here.
"Ushio, I'm sorry. I understand how you feel. My father was killed by a Rakshasa ghost right in front of me. I vowed to kill a hundred Rakshasa ghosts for him."
"Look at the butt of my gun. Each branch on the antlers represents a Rakshasa ghost I killed. There are only two now, and they are still far from the target!" Lushou comforted.
"Well, Lushou, you are right, I will live a good life to avenge them from now on."
"Why don't we kill these two Rakshasa ghosts?" Ushio asked.
"Oh, that's right, we have to get some information from these two people." Lushou explained.
These tribal warriors are very simple. In their concept, the enemy should be killed and they will not think of anything more.
Lushou did not dare to delay, and returned to the commando team with the two knocked unconscious Tsarist Russian hunters.
The special forces were very good at torture. The two men were soon awakened. They instinctively wanted to struggle, but they were tied tightly and their mouths were gagged.
Katya and Valentin knew that they had fallen into the hands of the enemy and would not be spared. They were heartbroken and prepared to die.
They knew that these people wanted to know the location of the team and the situation of all hunter teams from their own mouths.
Valentin glanced at Katya next to him, and both of them saw a determination to die in each other's eyes.
They never feel that they are scum. Although they do all kinds of evil, they are all against the indigenous people. In their eyes, this is no different from killing prey. God will forgive them.
But they cannot betray their companions, otherwise they may go to hell after death.
After a while, a translator came who could speak Russian. He was a Qing man with braids.
The little-eyed translator told the two of them that they needed to ask a few questions. One was where their team was and how many people there were. The other was how many such teams they had.
When the two heard this, they realized that it was indeed the case. Their determination could be seen in their eyes.
The translator smiled evilly and said, "You two, don't be too busy refusing. I know you are not afraid of death."
As he spoke, he looked at the two special operations team members on the side, took a bottle from one of them, and poured a black pill from the bottle.
"Did you see it? This is an estrus drug for stallions. I think you should know its efficacy."
"Wait a minute, which one of you takes it? The one who takes the medicine may feel better."
As he said that, the man laughed again.
Katya and Valentin had goosebumps when they heard this man laugh.
They can be tortured or even killed. Valentin and Katya believe that their souls are still intact.
But if they really took this medicine as the Qing man said, their souls would be stained.
…
After a while, the translator walked up to Zhao Kun and reported: "Captain, both of them have taken the medicine. Your trick really works. Haha, I wonder if this medicine is real?"
"If you want to know, try it yourself and get down to business." Zhao Kun criticized.
"Yes, captain, there are a total of eighty-two people in their team. They camped at a place three kilometers northwest of here. In addition, according to them, there are nearly thirty teams like them. Now there is a team from the American Company
The steward is responsible for restraining them."
"But since there was no supply, they still spread out and moved forward. The company steward asked them to meet northwest of Temple Street and then attack Temple Street together."
After hearing the information relayed by the translator, Zhao Kun fell into deep thought.
Now the total number of their three commandos is less than 500, and the comparison with the opponent is one to five.
Here is the jungle terrain that the opponent is very good at. Even if your rifle has a range advantage, this advantage is minimal in the jungle, because there are thick trees everywhere that can be used as bunkers, and you cannot aim at the enemy from a long distance.
"Order the commando team to withdraw, and at the same time send people to notify the other two commando teams." Zhao Kun said.
Then, he sent someone to convey the news to Lin Wei in Temple Street, waiting for the next order.
According to Zhao Kun's idea, since the opponent is going to attack Temple Street, he should simply use the trick and wait until they gather to attack on Temple Street before giving them a fatal blow.
At that time, a unit can be ambushed in the rear in advance. Anyway, the Huaihai Navy has an advantage in terms of total numbers.
This will prevent them from running into the woods to hide and seek again.
Of course, Zhao Kun is not the commander, he can only write his own thoughts in a report and submit it to Lin Wei for the final decision.
At this moment, gunshots were heard from the northeast. Judging from the gunshots and frequency, it appeared that the Huai Navy was participating in the battle.
It seemed that the communications troops he sent were still a step late. The northeast direction was the direction of Team C.
The sound of gunshots indicated that Team C had already picked up the opponent, so the teams around these Tsarist Russian hunter teams would definitely come to support them.
Zhao Kun quickly sent people to catch up with the messengers who returned to Temple Street, and asked the messengers to take them back with them about the unexpected situation.
He also sent people to Team B in the south to ask Team B to move closer to this side.
He led his men to thrust diagonally in the direction of Team C. He also sent someone to tell Team C that he had arrived with support, and asked Team C to retreat as much as possible.
But he did not join up with Team C, but lurked one kilometer east of Team C.
Now that Team C has been exposed, the Tsarist Russian hunter teams that can come around will definitely surround Team C in the direction of the gunfire as soon as possible, that is, outflank Team C.
If he joins Team C at this time, both teams will definitely be surrounded by Tsarist Russian hunter teams.
Their three teams all came from the east, which meant that there was no Tsarist Russian hunter team in the east. Therefore, there was no Tsarist Russian hunter team in the place where I was lurking.
Standing on a tall tree at the lurking point, Zhao Kun could see that Team C was playing smoothly at the beginning.
With equal numbers, Tsarist Russia's hunter team was no match for the Huai Navy.
Although the advantage of range cannot be fully utilized, the accuracy and rate of fire of the Huaihai Haijun rifle are much higher.
In addition, the Huai Navy also has mortars and grenade launchers for support.
For a while, the Tsarist Russians did not dare to get close, but the surrounding Tsarist Russian squads quickly approached, and the distance between them was much closer than the distance between the three commandos of the Huai Navy.
The enemy was very cunning. Instead of concentrating their attack, they used skirmishing tactics and used trees as bunkers to outflank the Huai Navy.
Then the mortar will be useless.
The captain of Team C also felt that something was wrong at this time and regretted not listening to Team A's Zhao Kun's suggestion that he should retreat as soon as possible.
The captain of Team C slowly gathered the team members together and crossed to cover the retreat.
However, the Tsarist Russians clung to them and shot at them from behind trees. Although the accuracy of the flintlock shots was limited, they still caused casualties to the Huai Navy.
Fortunately, the captain of Team C did not panic yet and knew how to take the injured soldier to the inner circle.
As for the soldiers who died in battle, they could only take back their weapons and leave their bodies in place for the time being.
The Russians would not give up such a good opportunity. They kept outflanking them, and more and more Russians were gathering. Zhao Kun visually checked that there were at least seven or eight hundred people.
At this time, the correspondent came to report, and Team B also rushed over. Team B went directly behind Team A and avoided the Russian support team, so it arrived so slowly.
Zhao Kun and the captain of Team B gathered together and decided to wait for the Russians who were outflanking to gather more. The two teams directly attacked directly under the cover of mortars and grenade launchers to eliminate these outflanking Russians.
At this time, Team C is getting closer and closer, and Zhao Kun and Team B are basically ready.
With a whistle blowing, the two teams shouted to go out together.
The outflanking Russian team was blown into several large gaps by mortars. They quickly turned around and rushed towards Team A and Team B.
Team C also stepped up its pace and rushed eastward, forming a partial counter-encirclement against the Russians who were outflanking them.
"Bang, bang, bang..." Both sides opened fire at close range. The Russian side was basically a one-shot deal. Few hunters had the opportunity to fire a second shot. Once they fired the first shot, they would be attacked by Huai Haijun.
Soldier hit.
But the marksmanship of these hunters was really good, and dozens of soldiers fell on the way to the charge.
Team A and Team B finally picked up Team C. At this time, the Russians from the west continued to gather here.
At this time, the three captains finally formed a unified opinion. The three teams withdrew to the east together.
During the retreat, the special operations team members also set up some booby traps on the retreat road to delay the Russian attack.
