The strongest soldier

Chapter 338 Collecting poisonous insects

A sneak attack on a desert oasis castle with a wide field of vision is not an easy task. In the absence of heavy weapons and air strikes, there are no more than three methods in detail: frontal attack, pretending to be the enemy, and silent infiltration. The first two are simply not possible. Perhaps, there was only one way to infiltrate, but infiltration required cover, a clear view of the surroundings, and heavy patrols. It was very difficult to infiltrate silently, so Luo Zheng chose the water source to work hard.

This method is very time-consuming, but it is still a method. However, when Luo Zheng slid down the sand dune and was about to climb to the lake to look for poisonous insects and the like, he was startled when he saw a group of armed men suddenly walking out of the castle. , quickly motioned for everyone to lie down where they were. Under the camouflage of desert ghillie suits, the distance was long, so there was no need to worry about safety issues, but they could not move around.

After coming over for a while, Luo Zheng found that this was a team coming to change the guard. He couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief. After waiting quietly for a few minutes, he made sure that the other party didn't notice him and whispered: "Brothers, there is a lake three hundred meters ahead. , everyone, please spread out carefully and crawl over slowly. Our night vision device has an infrared thermal imaging function and can sense the heat of targets above 0°C. It is not difficult to find poisonous insects and the like, so take action."

The night vision device everyone wears is a military product developed by the National Blade Equipment Brigade. It has a photon light source, an infrared heat source, and a radio far vision. It can also automatically detect how many meters the visual distance is, and can also determine the orientation, and The most amazing thing is that from the inside, it looks like dawn outside, but from the outside of the lens, it is completely dark, with no digital display or indicator light. This kind of night vision device is already equipped by many special forces in developed countries, but it only has poor performance. Each has his or her own merits.

"Understood." Everyone spread out and crawled in their own direction. With the help of night vision goggles, the surrounding situation was clear. All the creatures that came out at night were clearly visible to everyone, and they all pulled out their sabers.

Luo Zheng has rich hunting experience. He can tell what animals are passing by and where animals are hiding by looking at the traces on the ground. When he comes to the shore of the lake, he quickly finds a shed skin. It has been weathered for a long time and looks like it was left by a big snake. , Luo Zheng was overjoyed, drew out his saber, looked around, quickly determined a direction and crawled over.

After a while, Luo Zheng saw a sand snake entrenched in front of him. His body was coiled up, his head held high, and he was looking left and right. When Luo Zheng got closer, he took out the saber in his hand and threw it at him like lightning. The saber drew out. A black bolt instantly cut off the head of the sand snake, and the saber sank into the sand.

With his hand moving, Luo Zheng looked around and found several poisonous scorpions. He immediately pulled out another saber and cut one at a time. He killed them directly and put them in his backpack. Then he climbed up and put the body of the poisonous snakes into his backpack. After crawling forward for a while, he took out his saber from the sand and paid attention to his surroundings again.

Creatures need to live near water. Where there is water, the ecological chain is naturally rich. Various creatures in the desert can be found near lakes, especially sand lizards and sand scorpions. With the help of night vision devices, an hour later, Luo Zheng He collected a lot, met with everyone, and put all the loot into the backpack. Unexpectedly, there was only half a bag. Luo Zheng looked at the lake and thought for a while. The water surface of the lake was not small. This was not enough, so he motioned for everyone to continue.

If we continue, we can only collect forward, and moving forward means danger. Before there is no better way, everyone grits their teeth and goes all out. In pairs, they collect along both sides of the lake towards the opposite side, moving as carefully as possible. An hour later, Luo Zheng looked at the harvest and saw that there was a lot more. He looked ahead and saw that he was only two hundred meters away from the patrol. There was a high possibility of being discovered if he continued forward. He immediately sent out a signal and everyone retreated.

Half an hour later, everyone climbed back to the meeting point under the sand dune. The loot was gathered together. There was half a bag. Luo Zheng estimated that it was almost there. He gave everyone a look of surprise. Everyone squatted down to be on guard. Luo Zheng took it with him. The loot climbed up the sand dune first.

Climbing up the sand dune is very strenuous. The sand is so soft that there is no force. You can only climb in a zigzag shape. The body is tilted horizontally. It is better after the force-bearing surface is enlarged. In addition, I don’t dare to move too much. It takes me a few minutes to slide down the dune, but it is still a long time to climb up. It took about ten minutes for Luo Zheng to climb up the sand dune and immediately used the dune cover to provide warning for everyone.

After waiting for a while, Guishou climbed up second, followed by Snow Leopard and Mountain Eagle. Everyone took about the same amount of time. After everyone came up, they came to the original place to meet Lan Xue. It was already late at night, and the temperature It suddenly decreased, and I was shivering from the cold.

Luo Zheng glanced at Lan Xue. His body was shaking with cold and his face was pale. It was ugly under the moonlight. Everyone was not much better. He couldn't help but feel nervous. He looked around at the long sand dunes and there was nowhere to hide. He quickly said: " This won’t work, we must find a place to hide as soon as possible.”

"Okay, are all the things enough? When will they be put out?" Lan Xue asked.

"It's almost ready. Let it dry in the sun tomorrow to speed up the rot. The sun is strongest at noon and there are few people patrolling. We will release it then." Luo Zheng agreed, pointed in a direction and said: "Quick, let's go over there and find a place to hide first." Just hide and wait until tonight."

"Okay, let's go." Everyone agreed and packed up their things. Luo Zheng's backpack was used to carry poisonous insects. The supplies only need to be distributed into other people's backpacks. Fortunately, everyone has the physical strength. It is not a long-distance emergency march, so it will add a little more weight. The problem was not that big. After everything was sorted out, everyone evacuated quickly.

Half an hour later, everyone came to a stop behind a leeward sand dune, and quickly opened their sleeping bags and got in. The sleeping bags are a special military product of the National Blade Equipment Brigade. They are cold-proof, fire-proof, radiation-proof, and waterproof, and can survive in the desert at more than 30 degrees below zero. It was impossible for anyone to come to inspect, but Luo Zheng was still worried and asked everyone to sleep first while he hid in his sleeping bag and stood guard. The temperature was too low, so there was no other way.

Looking at the cold wind howling outside, not the rolling yellow sand, but the dead silence, which is depressing, Luo Zheng smiled bitterly, but when he thought of the possibility of solving the Wolf King once and for all, his heart cheered up, and time passed unknowingly. After three hours, the mountain eagle got up and took turns, and Luo Zheng fell asleep.

When they woke up, it was already dawn. Everyone got out of their sleeping bags one after another, eating compressed biscuits and drinking water. Luo Zheng saw that the water everyone carried was consumed a lot and there was not much left. He made a note of it and dumped all the poisonous insects on the sand. After being exposed to the sun, the picked Cistanche deserticola was also taken out to dry.

The temperature in the desert rose quickly in the morning, and the poisonous insects soon began to stink. After waiting for a while, Luo Zheng saw that it was almost done, so he said: "Everyone collect the empty water bottles that have been consumed. We have no use for the water after it is contaminated. We must collect some first, Brother Mountain Eagle, Brother Ghost Hand, the three of us will go, Xueer, you and Brother Snow Leopard will be on guard."

"Okay, be careful." Lan Xue agreed.
