“It feels like my sister-in-law’s craft!”
The soldiers from the island had eaten the food cooked by Jiang Yushan before, and they immediately felt a sense of familiarity with it.
"It must be brought by my sister-in-law to the regiment commander. Captain Huo is so generous that he is willing to share such good things with us. He is worthy of being the regiment commander!" A soldier praised in surprise.
If it were him, he might not be willing to share it. Such a delicious cake is not enough for one person!
"What sister-in-law?" the Xisha soldiers asked curiously.
"That's our Captain Huo. He got married not long ago. He has a beautiful sister-in-law who cooks deliciously!" the man said, lowering his voice. "She's only eighteen years old, and she's so pretty!"
"Oh...it's only the first day, and I'm already missing the food in the Third Canteen..."
"Hurry up and get rid of those trivial things, and go back early to eat the meal cooked by my sister-in-law!"
The soldiers on the island were talking to each other, each of them was full of passion, and just wanted to complete the mission as soon as possible and return.
At this time, Jiang Yushan didn't know that the food she cooked could have such a great influence.
"Why is this sister-in-law you are talking about still cooking in the army canteen?" asked the soldier on the Xisha side.
"Not only does my sister-in-law cook, she also helps catch enemy spies!"
Speaking of this, the soldiers coming from the island became very interested and they talked non-stop when they got together.
After they said this, although the soldiers on the Xisha side had never seen Jiang Yushan, almost all knew that there was such an all-round military wife like her!
Especially after eating the meat patties that were distributed to them, they were full of longing for the third canteen they mentioned. They wanted to try how delicious the food cooked by Jiang Yushan was.
"Ahem." Huo Ci listened to the soldier praising his wife to the skies. Although a smile appeared on his lips, he still slapped him. "That's enough, right?"
"Hehe~" The little soldier touched the back of his head.
Isn't this just a way for him to express his admiration for his sister-in-law?
After dinner, Huo Ci asked Li Hongguang to go back and have a good rest, so as to get enough energy to prepare for the subsequent battle.
He and Zhang Wei were divided into two groups, leading the soldiers on duty at night and at night.
…
"Found it! Finally found it!" Early the next morning, soldiers ran over excitedly from outside.
"Have you found any trace of the enemy?"
This soldier was from the Xisha Islands, but Huo Ci didn't care about that at the moment and intercepted him.
"Yes!" The soldier who came over nodded.
He was the soldier responsible for searching outside. He had not seen Huo Ci yesterday, but Huo Ci had been in the army for many years, so the soldier still recognized him.
Even if I don't know him, his aura makes him look extraordinary. He is obviously an officer.
"We found traces of the enemy in the horn bushes," the soldier reported to him, "and our men followed them quietly."
The reason why the signal flare was not sent directly was to avoid alerting the enemy.
There was a small team of enemies landing on the island. The number of people was not large but not small either. However, the team responsible for the search was scattered and only a few people were found. It would not be a good idea to confront them rashly.
This soldier came back to ask for help.
"Go call Zhang Wei and ask him to lead the team to catch up." Huo Ci stopped a soldier in the team and gave an order.
Time was urgent, so he took the soldiers on duty with him and followed the soldier who had returned with the communication to provide support.
After Zhang Wei was called out, he immediately called Li Hongguang to form a team and led them to speed up the march. Finally, they caught up with Huo Ci before reaching the warship.
The warship arrived at the small island on the side of the sheep horn tree, and a group of people landed on the island and moved forward.
This jungle is similar to a primeval forest, with a high vegetation coverage rate and lush greenery. It is dark green at first glance, and most of the sunlight is blocked, making the vision dim.
Moreover, the trees near the coast are short, but the closer you get to the interior, the taller the trees are, making it a great place to hide.
"Where are the people?" Li Hongguang couldn't help frowning as he looked at the jungle.
Even though there are so many of them, once they enter, you can't tell there are so many people from the outside.
"It's inside, follow me." The soldier walked in front to lead the way.
The place where they found the tracks was deep in the jungle, and they had to walk quite a distance into it.
After all, those little guys have been on the island for a long time, so they will naturally move deeper into the island and can be easily discovered from the periphery.
They walked on, deep into the jungle, for almost an hour before suddenly stopping.
"What's wrong?" Li Hongguang looked at the gesture made by Huo Ci, feeling a little confused.
He looked around warily, thinking that Huo Ci had seen something.
"We have too many people, and it will be too easy to be discovered if we gather together." Huo Ci whispered.
They haven't reached the place where the clues were found yet, but given the size of their target, they might be noticed by the other party before they even get close.
Although this jungle can hide people, the enemy is not stupid. Knowing that they are searching, they will definitely be alert.
"We will divide into three teams. You and Zhang Wei will lead one team each and move forward separately." Huo Ci made arrangements quickly.
"Okay!" Li Hongguang thought it made sense, and he and Zhang Wei immediately divided into two teams and headed out in three directions according to the locations given by the soldiers.
Even if the enemy noticed, their encirclement posture would prevent them from hiding again.
The closer the three teams got to the clue location, the more cautious they became. Everyone had a simple way to hide their tracks. Their military green clothes matched the leaves and they were almost perfectly hidden in the jungle.
