Chapter 199 Leaving the Desert Area

It was already very cold at this time, thanks to the few people who picked up some dead branches on the way.

After they came to a huge rock, they dug a hole in the ground, threw all the dead branches into it, lit it up, and several people formed a circle.

After spending the night in the field like this, the next day, when the sun rose in the morning, the weather became hot again.

Zhang Tianyu wiped the sweat from his cheeks, and complained: "This poor place, staying here for a day will catch up with the four seasons of the year."

"We can't continue to investigate like headless chickens without a clue. Didn't the company commander tell us to go to the village on the small island to inquire about the news? I think it's okay."

Qian Tong nodded: "Well, since the company commander has told us that we don't need to go to the border anymore, let's go to the village in the north of the island to inquire."

"We have only one task now, and that is to investigate where the poachers are hiding."

While several people were talking, Lei Ting noticed something strange again.

Seeing the sudden abnormality of Lei Ting, the hearts of several people suddenly suspended, and they were all worried that they would encounter the Shura field like yesterday again.

But this time was different from the last time, Lei Ting stopped before running far, and started digging with his claws on the spot, and a cigarette butt came out after a while.

Several people passed each other, and then began to clean up the sand on the ground with the folding engineer shovel on their bodies.

As the sand was cleared, a clear tire track appeared on the ground.

The tire track looks new, not like it was left before.

Qian Tong called Lei Ting over, pointed to the tire marks on the ground, and then followed Lei Ting's footsteps, and the group set off again.

But not too far away, Lei Ting lost the direction of the target, and they couldn't find any traces of the tires.

Nie Fei smiled wryly: "Military dogs distinguish between the enemy and the enemy by smell. The smell of cigarettes is very strong, so Lei Ting can easily detect it."

"But these traces of the tires will not leave any irritating smell, and the smell of plastic left behind after being blown over and over again by sandstorms and buried in sand for so long may have disappeared."

"Thunder probably won't be able to catch this smell, it seems that we will have to rely on ourselves next."

Zhang Tianyu touched the marks left by the tires with his hands, and he closed his eyes to feel the touch.

This is still a little different from other places. Where the tire marks are left, the sand will appear harder.

Based on this clue, several people began to slowly grope forward. Every two hours, they would report the current progress to the camp.

According to this method, they advanced for three full days, and finally reached the edge of the island desert.

At this time, Nie Fei was about to contact the camp via radio, but found that the radio had no signal.

Qian Tong frowned and said in a deep voice: "It is estimated that the magnetic field here has affected the signal. According to the records on the map, we are now more than 100 kilometers away from the camp."

"With such a long distance and the influence of the magnetic field, it is normal to lose the signal."

Nie Fei hesitated: "Then what should we do, we have already chased here, and we must find a way to contact the camp."

"I can't go back. Wouldn't all previous efforts be wasted?"

After Nie Fei finished speaking, Zhang Tianyu interrupted: "Don't, we spent a lot of effort to catch up here. We have suffered a lot during this time. If we go back, our previous efforts will be in vain."

"No matter what, we should go out and have a look. If it doesn't work, go back to the camp and call someone. You can't know everything, so go back?"

"Besides, at this time, even if we contact the camp, we have nothing to report."

Qian Tong nodded. To be honest, he was a little unwilling to let him go back at this time.

"Okay, then let's move on. I guess we should have found the right location this time. The poachers are likely to go this way."

Zhang Tianyu looked at the military uniform on his body, and asked Qian Tong: "Then should we change into casual clothes, these clothes are too eye-catching."

"Wearing military uniforms, people can see that we are soldiers from a thousand miles away, and we are exposed before we get close."

Qian Tong waved his hand: "Don't worry, wait a minute, we just came out of the deserted area of ​​the island, and we don't know how far we have to go."

"If you find a village ahead, let Gray Wolf and Thunder wait here to guard our weapons, and the five of us will go in and see what's going on."

A few people nodded and started to move forward. When they reached the edge of the deserted area on the island, there was not much sand and dust left. The wheel marks on the ground could already be seen with the naked eye.

Zhang Tianyu was a little puzzled, and he said in surprise: "I said, if you follow this method to search, isn't it a bit too easy?"

"Why do I feel that there is no difficulty at all, and we have found some clues?"

Nie Fei smiled wryly, pointed at Lei Ting and said, "This time it went so smoothly because Lei Ting led us the way and found a key clue. Otherwise, it would have been a year of monkeys to get here by relying on us."

Zhang Tianyu shook his head, and expressed his own analysis: "No, what I mean is, the traces left by the tires are so easy to be found. Didn't the soldiers from the Hound Dog Battalion come here before?"

"If the desert area is firmly covered by sand, but now at the edge of the desert area, the wheel marks can be easily identified, will it be so easy?"

Qian Tong touched the tire marks on the ground, and replied: "Don't think too much, it's not easy after all, we can figure it out if we continue to explore."

"However, what Lao Zhang said is also true. Let's be careful. These poachers have guns. They are a group of desperadoes. Once we find traces of a village in front of us, we will stop moving forward and change into casual clothes. Don't be scared here. aborigines."

The group of people nodded and continued to move forward. After leaving the desert area, the temperature dropped a little.

Because in that desert area, there are gravel everywhere and there is no shelter, the ultraviolet rays are so direct on the ground that the heat cannot be evaporated.

So it caused the desert area on the island to feel extraordinarily hot during the day.

Leaving the desert area, the few of them marched for another day, before reaching the vicinity of the first village marked on the map.

The members of the second team immediately found a commanding height, took out their binoculars and began to observe.

However, due to the relatively long distance, the telescope can only see roughly.

They were also not sure if there were traces of poachers in the village ahead.
