Soldier like mountains, especially when it concerns orders that save lives, everyone took action, thodically executing the defense setup. Under the guidance of Monk and Gardener, the anti-aircraft forces began digging anti-aircraft trenches, primarily to defend against ard helicopters. Against fighter jets and missiles, these trenches were rely symbolic, without any real significance. For the Soldier King troops who've undergone special training, earthworks were a piece of cake. Dozens of entrenching tools danced, constantly flinging dirt, and the trenches ford zigzags, fully integrating with the surrounding terrain and trees.
Luo Zheng stood quietly at the commanding point on the hillside, his tiger eyes wide open, watching the dense forest ahead, while he answered various questions through his ear microphone. Ti ticked away, the people in foxholes on the open ground deepened the pits significantly, increasing the defensive strength by a few degrees. Unless directly shot by helicopters, they were absolutely untouchable inside. The seized missiles were buried underground, with ten enemy corpses piled on top, laden with many button bombs, plus seized enemy grenades and bullets, forming a terrifying trap.
Lan Xue returned to Luo Zheng's side and handed him the remote control. Luo Zheng shook his head, signaling for Lan Xue to keep it. Other enemy equipnt seized was distributed by Hook, including bulletproof helts, bullet-resistant vests, weapons, military boots, combat uniforms, among others, all top-notch gear. Hook took a set, Lang Sen took a set, others were given to the officers below.
But reconnaissance planes, single soldier radar, helt-mounted single soldier night vision goggles, radios, handheld computers, mine detectors, rangefinders, infrared sights, finger-style laser friend-or-foe identifiers, miniature laser rangefinders, and other advanced weapons, were all gathered by Luo Zheng and handed over to Mountain Eagle Team mbers for safekeeping. Everyone was utilizing the ti to familiarize themselves with the usage of this equipnt.
Three minutes later, silence returned to the open ground, with nothing visible except stripped corpses, those lurking in foxholes continued to lurk, while people in the dense forested mountains still relied on the terrain to make defensive constructions, increasing concealnt. The mountains were tall and dense, even satellites had difficulty uncovering them, hard to detect unless approached.
Five minutes later, no enemy ard helicopters arrived, this outco made Luo Zheng suspicious. Could his judgnt be wrong? Lan Xue, standing beside Luo Zheng, also vigilantly looked forward, lowering her voice as she spoke, "Five minutes already, it's unreasonable for the enemy not to co, what are they up to?"
"Indeed, could there be an even bigger plot?" Captain Li worriedly said.
"Old friend, I've contacted other troops again." Hook excitedly ran over, exclaiming with surprise.
"Huh? Are there pursuers?" Luo Zheng asked in surprise.
"No, shook them off, there are over five hundred people, towards the south." Hook said excitedly.
"Brother, discovered a troop, about five hundred people, looks like Hook Tribe's, resting in the dense forest ahead, wasn't Hook talking about this earlier? Should be his people then, over." Shadow's voice suddenly rang in the ear microphone, as everyone was on a public channel, Luo Zheng and Hook's conversation was audible to others.
"Have your people withdraw five kiloters and standby, conceal carefully." Luo Zheng pondered and then said.
"Huh? Why, not using them for help?" Hook asked in surprise.
"No, use them as a reserve team. Once any of your people are contacted, have them all withdraw five kiloters and standby, first to avoid arousing enemy suspicion, second to arrive for support promptly. There are already over a thousand people here, any more is aningless, they can serve as scouts on the periphery." Luo Zheng explained.
Upon hearing, Hook realized, and imdiately went to give orders.
Mountain Eagle walked over and asked in a low voice, "Everyone's got tasks, what about us?"
"Your people follow , ready to support where needed, a strong mobile force is needed here. You're all snipers, perfect fit." Luo Zheng explained.
"Understood." Mountain Eagle promised with a word and went off to explain to his comrades.
Luo Zheng looked at the silent open ground, then at the quietly distant dense forest, still no trace of the enemy. Around, only the rustle of the wind moving tree leaves, as if whispering, sounded agitating. Under the blazing sun, bright sky washed clean, only a few clouds drifted leisurely. Rare good weather indeed, Luo Zheng sighed with locked tiger brows, clearly pondering deeply, unable to fathom why the enemy has been silent till now, quite unusual.
Almost simultaneously, people in the Sam Country President Mansion conference room were also frowning in contemplation. The President personally chaired this eting, attendees were all military representatives, the Inner Guard Captain stood behind, face coldly looking at everyone. Since last ti, he resisted all opinions and set a trap to lure Luo Zheng to rescue, which turned out to be a joke, no one went to rescue, Ghost Hand and others were smoothly sent to Dark Prison, failing to capture Luo Zheng, leaving the Inner Guard Captain very frustrated.
Jackson was also in this eting and had a forward position, indicating his improved status, frontline battle reports on attacks on Hook Tribe arrived promptly, the logistics base was destroyed, about four hundred people died, and several helicopters were also blown up. Along with the latest battle reports, two more helicopters were bombed, making everyone realize the seriousness of the problem. No one could understand how such indigenous people possessed such combat power?
The President's face was grim, eyes slightly squinted with a hint of anger, coldly speaking, "You all know the situation, who can tell why this is happening? A fully ard troop actually lost to a bunch of natives, our military has beco an international joke, our people are waiting for an answer, can anyone tell sothing?"
Everyone remained silent, did not respond, instead looked towards the military commander of this operation, the new Minister of Defense. The new Minister of Defense saw the President's unfriendly eyes fall on him, sothing had to be said appropriately. Quickly organizing his words, he said, "Mr. President, I have already ordered the troops to temporarily halt attacks, defend rigorously, and act after the eting ends. The urgent matter is to clarify the cause of this. From frontline reports, many of our soldiers died due to snipers. Generally, indigenous people don't have snipers. Therefore, I suspect participation from a third-party country."
"Third-party country? Who is it?" The President's face changed greatly, intervening the Hook Tribe under anti-terrorism was one matter, Hook Tribe surrounded by countries friendly to Sam, a traditional interest area for Sam Country, wouldn't oppose it. Once a third-party joins, the nature completely differs, actions must be cautious.
"Third-party country?" Jackson's eyes suddenly lit up, feeling the thick fog before him suddenly pierced by lightning, many incomprehensible issues now made sense, and his face turned fervent, secretly thinking, "Old friend, could it be you? No wonder you didn't co to rescue, but went on a mission instead, interesting."
