In the dense forest in the southern part of Yue.

A seven-man team was running quickly in the dense forest. The sound of branches breaking could be heard endlessly, waking up countless small animals.

It was as if the curtain had been pulled down in an instant. A minute ago, it was still clear and boundless, but the next minute, it became dense clouds, making it more difficult for Zhang Xinghua and the others to pursue.

Perhaps it was because they had returned to their homeland, or perhaps it was because they knew that the enemy could not cross the border to fight, so after running away from the border, the remaining special forces slowed down and relaxed their vigilance. They even forgot to pay attention to the movements around them, which led Zhang Xinghua to easily find his tracks.

"Hualala."

At this moment, the drizzle fell, hitting the leaves and making a rustling sound, as if the heavens were crying.

Zhang Xinghua and the others did not stop and continued to pursue. The rain would wash away the traces left by the enemy. Once they rested at this time, it would be very difficult to find him again.

After the enhancement of the Falcon's Eyes skill, Zhang Xinghua's night vision had been greatly enhanced. He could barely identify the traces left by the enemy, but this identification was becoming more and more difficult.

The sky was as dark as ink. There were no stars, no moon, and no light. In the forest, the animals that only came out at night were also gone. The sound of the rain covered all other sounds.

"Phew!"

Zhang Xinghua, who was walking at the front, suddenly raised his right fist.

In the dark forest, the team members quickly squatted down and found cover. They held their breaths and focused on the movements around them.

Zhang Xinghua bent down and carefully moved the branches. He looked around and said,"We are surrounded."

"What? How could that be?" Geng Jihui exclaimed.

"There's nothing impossible. There should be a military base in this forest. We were discovered when we first came in.”Zhang Xinghua shrugged helplessly.

"What should we do now? Go back?" Xiao Zhuang asked with a frown.

Zhang Xinghua broke a branch and put it in his mouth. He said casually,"Go back? How was this possible? We're here to invade. We can't go back just because we've been wrapped up in dumplings by the enemy, right?”

"That's right, that's right. No matter what, we have to kill a few people before returning.”Deng Zhenhua chuckled.

"No." Zhang Xinghua waved his hand." We're going to destroy them.”

" No way..." Shi Dafan screamed.

"Pa."

Zhang Xinghua bit off the branch in his mouth and spat it out. He said,"Assault team, go catch some wild game. The rest of you, spread out and find a place to rest.”

"Ah?" Qiang Zi thought he was going to do something, but he already loaded the gun.

Zhang Xinghua smiled and looked up at the rain that was getting heavier and heavier. He wiped the rainwater off his face and said,"What? They know who we are and what we are good at, so they won't attack us in the rain. They must be four to five kilometers away from us, setting up camp and waiting for us.”

Geng Jihui nodded in agreement. He waved his hand at the crowd, indicating for them to carry out the order. Then, he turned around and disappeared into the darkness.

Zhang Xinghua hesitated for a moment and followed after him.

"Who is it?" Geng Jihui turned his head alertly and adjusted the muzzle, ready to fire at any time.

"It's me," said Zhang Xinghua, his expression unchanged.”

"Captain." Geng Jihui lowered his gun and shouted.

"Yes." Zhang Xinghua and Geng Jihui walked side by side, organized their words, and then said,"Xiao Geng, do you think I made the right decision?”

Geng Jihui paused and said," Yes, but it's also wrong. In fact, I don't know if it's right or not. From a soldier's point of view, it's wrong to violate discipline, but from the bottom of my heart, it's right."”

Zhang Xinghua sighed and said," At first, I thought I was right because I didn't let down my country or my brothers. But when I found out that we were surrounded, I felt that I was wrong again."”

"What is wrong? What was that? Who knows?" Geng Jihui shook his head.

Zhang Xinghua looked at the rain that was getting heavier and said,"I was the one who brought you out. I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to bring you out alive.”

"No." Geng Jihui stopped and said," We chose our own path. You just gave us the courage to choose."”

"But I'd rather not give you that kind of courage.”Zhang Xinghua said bitterly.

Geng Jihui shook his head." Wild Wolf once told me that I'm suitable to be a captain in peaceful times, while you're suitable to be a captain in troubled times. I didn't believe it at first because I felt that my commanding ability was not inferior to yours, but today, I believe it. You're indeed more suitable.”

Zhang Xinghua also shook his head." If we can go back this time, you might become the captain. After all, it's not chaotic yet. This stage should be handed to you.”

"Let's talk about it when we get back."

The two of them looked at each other and smiled.

Fifteen minutes later, the seven of them returned to their previous positions.

After a simple trail, the seven of them arrived at a small cave that Deng Zhenhua had found.

Although it was small, it wasn't small either. It was six to seven meters deep, two meters tall, and more than two meters wide. Seven people sat inside, but it didn't feel crowded at all.

There was also a pile of shrubs at the entrance of the cave, forming a natural barrier. If one did not observe carefully, they would not be able to discover this cave at all.

Inside the cave.

Zhang Xinghua piled up the firewood that he had found with great difficulty and skillfully lit it. The cold cave finally welcomed the long-lost warmth.

He took out his military saber and prepared three wild rabbits, two non-venomous snakes, and about half a catty of edible wild mushrooms. He placed the hollowed out helmet on the rack and filled it with drinking water. A " pot " of delicious and nutritious mushroom snake soup was born.

"Crackle crackle."

Of course, he would not let the wild rabbits go. Three wild rabbits were crisscrossed on the wooden stick in a well-arranged manner. The oil that emitted a fragrance burst out. He sprinkled some salt and squeezed some wild vegetable juice. The simple barbecue could increase one's appetite.

To be able to eat such delicious food on the battlefield behind enemy lines, it could be considered unprecedented, right?

"Hey, don't fight with me."

"This leg is mine!"

"You damn health worker, are you doing this on purpose?”

"Come, let's replace the wine with soup.”

Outside the cave, the storm was beating against the forest. The sudden rain seemed to be getting more and more intense. Inside the cave, people were eating and eating. They were not affected by the outside world at all. They were not worried about tomorrow.

Zhang Xinghua was wearing a pair of boxers. He stood at the entrance of the cave and looked in the direction of the Big Dipper, allowing the storm to hit his marble-like muscles."Will it really…clear up after the rain?”
