Chapter 81: The Sentinel Appears
Xiao Lin thought he was the first to take action. In fact, what he didn't know was that the Adams family and the Pandy family did not choose to wait for everything to be ready this time. The arms have arrived, and the new gunpowder technology has also begun to enter the production stage. The two families are full of confidence and choose to start the action first after discussing.
In a bush of a mountain pile three thousand meters away from the Yanhuang Trade Town, two strong white men wearing civilian clothes were hiding here, using monocular telescopes to keep looking into Yanhuang Town. Even though they were dressed like civilians, it can be seen from their behavior that these two must be from the army. Their toughness and the war horses with thick cloth jewels and mouths behind them prove that the two men are extremely likely to be elite cavalry in the army.
"I said Colin, why don't we get closer, there's nothing to see here."
"Shut up Ike, do you think I don't want to get closer. The enemy's defense is too tight. There are patrol teams within two thousand meters outside the town. Damn, I don't know what's going on. Even at night, you will be discovered as soon as you get close to the patrol team."
Before the two, another group of people couldn't help but approached the town in advance. Although the monoculars in their hands were purchased from the UK, they still could not allow them to see what happened in the town where tens of thousands of people live three thousand meters away. Many things can only be roughly seen and guessed. However, how to obtain valuable information in this way? If you don't work harder, these whistleblowers will probably be punished by your superiors.
Especially this morning, there were ten loud noises coming from the town. For them, as a military brigade, this kind of business is so familiar, just the roar of artillery. However, the experienced leader felt that it was wrong. Because this power was not something that the three-pound cannon and six-pound cannon owned by Yanhuang Trading Company, and the mortar business was completely different from this. The leader felt that the enemy had obtained new artillery.
The 120mm mortar is powerful enough, and it has already shocked the white people in the two battles to break the city. However, the last time Xiao Lin brought only thirty shells to save ammunition, which made these white people mistakenly think that there were not many shells for this kind of cannon. Perhaps to comfort himself, they naturally felt that this kind of cannon that had never seen before could no longer be fired. However, now the Yanhuang Trading Company may have a new powerful cannon, which forced them to investigate clearly.
"But, just stay here, what should I do if the tasks assigned by the above?"
"This matter is not urgent, otherwise we will die and the mission will not be completed."
"Okay, okay, let's go. I've been observing for a day. Let's go back and take a rest first."
The two got up from the place where they had been lying for several hours, slowly retreated, led the war horse, and prepared to return to the assembly point to rest. Because at night, the town would fall into silence and there was no value for observation. The two walked for about five minutes, and two people had crawled out of another grass fifty meters away. These two people were wearing dark green camouflage uniforms, covered with a layer of rope net, and filled with weeds.
As soon as they drilled into the dense grass, they could not see anyone inside. Their outfit was much more advanced than the civilian costumes of the two cavalrymen, Colin and Ike. The moonlight shone on their faces, but the appearance of an Indian. The two did not rush to move, but observed it and confirmed that Colin and Ike did not stay nearby, so they learned to do owl business. They shouted three times long and short. Thirty seconds later, there was a sound of footsteps behind them.
In two minutes, a total of 300 people gathered together. Apache walked forward and started talking to the two.
"How is it? Everything goes well."
"Don't worry, the second battalion commander, the enemy did not notice us. It's time now, we need to continue tracking. The second battalion commander, please follow us with people, and we will leave a mark along the way."
"Okay, it seems that the Ye Xiao troops are really the elite among the elite."
After the two said that, they did not continue to stay with Apache. They alternately covered and began to advance along the traces left by Colin and Ike. The Night Owl Special Reconnaissance Battalion, the troops that Xiao Lin only started to form a month ago. Although it was the Special Reconnaissance Battalion, it did not actually start formal training. Xiao Lin only selected the most elite and loyal warriors among the 100 2,000 warriors, and then changed their equipment.
These two are the most powerful sniper team among them. One is equipped with a Yanhuang sniper rifle equipped with an optical scope, and the other is holding a 56-6 submachine gun renamed assaulter. There are six grenades on the waists, two of them each, blasting, smoke and flashing. The equipment of these hundred people is not inferior to them. Even if most of them own or can produce it themselves, it would have cost Xiao Lin 10 million yuan. If it weren't for the fact that he had earned the money, he would have almost lost control.
In fact, Yanhuang Trading Company has long discovered the existence of a sentry. As the most elite special forces in China in the 21st century, how could it be that it is impossible to know the importance of preventing the enemy? Not only did he arrange a 24-hour patrol team within two thousand meters outside the town, but he also equipped several important patrol teams with infrared night vision devices. China has had mature infrared night vision devices in the 1980s, and now it is behind in performance and is placed in the warehouse. Xiao Lin bought it. This is not an ordnance weapon. He doesn't need to use Sorento's skin, he can do it himself.
With these infrared night vision devices, the two detectives that wanted to get close to the reconnaissance last time were discovered as soon as they approached. The patrol team wanted to touch and surround the two detectives, but they were worthy of being elite British troops. When they found something was wrong, they wanted to run away. As a last resort, the patrol team could only shoot. After a mistake, the two detectives did not survive, and the other British detectives did not evacuate because of this.
Because the two people who were shot did not have any certificates to prove their identity, they were not worried that the enemy knew that they were British reconnaissance cavalry. However, Xiao Lin knew that except for the British, he did not offend any white forces now. Even the greedy and bold bandits and poachers did not dare to be arrogant near a town with nearly 30,000 people. Therefore, this group of people could only be sent by his enemies.
Since it was sent by the enemy, no matter what conspiracy was, he would not let these people succeed. Therefore, he sent troops to investigate the whereabouts of these people. Colin and Ike were discovered by the Ye Xiao Sniper Team two days ago. At that time, these two people were still observing the situation in the town at this distance. At that time, there was no time to prepare, so they could only let the two of them go first. The Ye Xiao team responded, and Xiao Lin immediately asked Apache to lead the second battalion with the action. Ye Xiao's people were responsible for leading the way for the second battalion.
After mingling in the forest for many years, and with Xiao Lin's little tracking training, two Indian sniper teams belonging to the Night Owl easily caught up with Colin and Abby who were far away. The two of them circled around the valley until an hour later, and stopped and entered a basin filled with several bonfires. The leader felt that life in the basin was not easy to be seen from a distance, nor did they think that it would be ambushed and besieged by enemy troops.
However, this time, he really missed a mistake. The Ye Xiao team left a mark all the way and lurked on a hillside more than 60 meters above the basin. They used night vision instruments to observe the situation in the basin. There were many people here, and the two of them counted it briefly and there were about one hundred people, which happened to be a cavalry company. The reason why it was called a cavalry company was that everyone here had one or two horses, and at their location, they seemed to smell the smell of horse manure.
Apache followed the marks left by the two people, and when they got closer, they also found the enemy in the basin. Let the troops lurk first. Apache and Ye Xiao discussed and attacked at two o'clock in the morning. Watches were flooded in the 21st century. Ye Xiao didn't say a single one, but he would be given one as soon as he got to the squad leader, so he would not be afraid of delaying the time.
The British cavalry did not find anything wrong, and cooked supper happily, drank and joked. Soon after, they went into the tent to sleep. The hour hand slowly turned, and finally it was 1:40 in the morning. The squad leader woke up the resting soldiers separately and prepared for battle. At two o'clock, Apache led the troops on time to act. Three hundred soldiers quietly entered the basin. Several British soldiers who were standing guard sat on the stone with guns and were drowsy. They were easily touched by the soldiers of the second battalion. One of them was held out from behind, covering their mouths, and a saber came out of their body.
Those who were on guard were touched by the soldiers soon after. One hundred British cavalry were stumbled into the camp silently, and there was no chance of resisting. The brown bass musket was still equipped with guns, and it was impossible to have ammunition left in the barrel when they were not used. Therefore, even if they wanted to shoot and fight back, they could not do it. Except for more than seventy people who were killed in resistance, the remaining twenty people were arrested.
Seeing that the wardling was being cleaned up, Xiao Lin felt relieved and questioned for three days and three nights, and finally knew that the army was still training. Since there was still time, Xiao Lin returned to the 21st century. Just as he was thinking of taking this opportunity to see if he could contact Sorento, Sorento's phone rang.
"Hey, my brother, how are you doing recently? Do you miss me?"
"Sorento, you still jumped out of your way, and the arms were transported?"
"Of course, you don't know. My father is very satisfied with this batch of arms. I'm sent back immediately. I'm now here at Shancheng Military Region, coming to find me."
