In the dead of the night, all kinds of insects kept chirping.
It was like a beautiful piece of pure music.
Xiao Zhuang's body was as straight as a ramrod. After a week at the border sentry post, he had also turned black. Other than his eyes and teeth, his entire person had completely blended into the darkness.
However, this change was what he liked.
It was very boring to stay in the company headquarters every day. From time to time, he had to serve tea and water for others, which was Miao Lian. If it were anyone else, he would have quit long ago.
After all, he had never served his parents since he was young.
Fortunately, this kind of life only lasted for one and a half months. Otherwise, he would have really collapsed.
However, it had to be said that this kind of life could really sharpen a person's character. One had to know that he was a man who even dared to do the old class monitor.
And now?
When he met the old class monitor, he would salute him politely.
It was mainly because he knew the immensity of heaven and earth.
The old squad leaders of the border troops all had their own unique skills and were extremely terrifying. With his triangular cat skills, he was defeated in a few moves.
Unless he was a fool, no one would take the initiative to torture him.
Just as Xiao Zhuang was thinking, a faint light suddenly lit up in the dense forest in the distance.
In an instant, Xiao Zhuang came back to his senses. He immediately raised his binoculars and looked over. However, what he saw was darkness. There was no light, not even a ghost.
No, that's not right!
He was very sure that he was not mistaken. There was definitely a light in that direction.
Now that it was suddenly gone, there was only one possibility. It had been shut down by someone!
This was near the border, surrounded by barren mountains and wilderness. The nearest village was four to five kilometers away. There was only one possibility for someone to appear here!
Enemies!
Thinking of this, Xiao Zhuang's eyes suddenly widened. However, he did not panic. Instead, he gently pulled a thin rope on the sentry tower.
……
Ding! Ding!
In an instant, the pleasant sound of wind chimes rang out in the dormitory.
Swoosh!
Lao Pao opened his eyes immediately. With the help of the microwave light outside the door, he could clearly see the wind chime dancing at the top.
This was an alarm device, which meant that something had happened.
Without wasting any time, Old Pao immediately got up and shouted,"Everyone, get up. There's a situation!”
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
The other nine people who were resting in the room immediately got up. They did not make a fuss and quickly got out of bed to put on their clothes.
……
At the same time, Lin Tian, who was on the other sentry tower, also noticed the movement made by Xiao Zhuang.
He quickly crouched down and hid most of his body inside the wall. Then, he raised his binoculars and carefully observed the direction of Xiao Zhuang.
It was pitch-black, but he didn't find anything.
However, he did not let his guard down. Instead, he continued to check. Xiao Zhuang must have found something since he could sound the alarm. Otherwise, he would not be so bored.
One had to know that the consequences of lying about military intelligence were very serious!
Most importantly, they were the border guards and the garrison of the border post. It was one of the most dangerous places in the entire country.
He had to be vigilant against any possibility.
Because, in this place, carelessness often required one to pay the price of blood!
……
Creak--
With the sound of the door opening, Old Pao and the others, who were fully armed, quickly rushed out.
"What's going on?" Lao Pao looked at Xiao Zhuang, who was coming down from the tower, and asked softly.
"Squad leader, when I was on duty just now, I noticed a light appear in the forest at one o'clock below. It was very short, and it disappeared in less than two or three seconds.”Xiao Zhuang quickly told him what he had discovered.
"Are you sure?" Lao Pao's expression immediately turned serious.
"Yes!" Xiao Zhuang nodded seriously.
"Ma Li, call the company immediately and ask for backup! Then, you and Xiwa will stay here and guard the door. Lock the door and everything. If we don't come back, don't open the door! The rest of you, follow me!" Old Pao quickly ordered.
"Yes, sir!"
The man called Ma Li was a corporal veteran. After hearing Old Pao's order, he did not waste any time and immediately ran to a house beside him.
Xiwa wanted to say something, but Li Jie pulled him back, so he shut up.
"Let's go!" Old Pao said as he pulled the bolt of the rifle in his hand.
Kacha!
Kacha!
Kacha!
The others, including Lin Tian, who had just seen the gesture and came down from the sentry tower, also pulled the bolt.
Then, everyone left the outpost through a small door at the side until they completely disappeared into the darkness.
After Xi Wa watched them leave, she followed the order and locked the door. Then, she squatted on the steps in front of the dormitory door and held the gun in her hand tightly.
After about half a minute, Ma Li, who had gone to make a call, returned. He did not speak. He sat quietly on the steps and loaded his rifle.
At present, they were not clear about the situation outside.
Lights appeared near the border. There were many possibilities, such as drug dealers, arms dealers, and so on.
There was still one last possibility, which was an invasion from a neighboring country!
The possibility of this was very, very low, but it did not mean that it was impossible. Many years ago, these things had happened.
No matter what happened outside, they only had one mission, and that was to guard this outpost.
Even if…Old Pao and the others didn't return, they couldn't go out to check. They had to hold on until the main force arrived.
This was because this outpost had the flag of China on it, representing that this land was China's land!
There was a garrison of Xia Country here!
……
Rustle, rustle, rustle.
After Old Pao and the others left the outpost, they did not rush to the location that Xiao Zhuang had mentioned.
Instead, they took a big detour and went down the mountain from the back of the outpost. Then, they entered the forest and searched in that direction.
The sound of military boots and fallen leaves grinding against each other could be heard.
Soon, half an hour passed.
Old Pao suddenly raised his fist and stopped the team. Then, he closed his eyes and listened carefully.
After a while, he opened his eyes and waved to the sides, signaling everyone to hide.
Seeing this, Lin Tian and the others did not waste any time. They immediately found strong trees or dense grass to hide.
At the same time, they gripped their rifles tightly and waited quietly.
