"We'll still divide into the same groups as last night and take turns keeping watch. Everyone, take some time to rest!" He Beichen gave the order.
Everyone dispersed on their own and did not gather together in large groups, in order to avoid being surrounded and captured by the Vietnamese soldiers if they were discovered.
They did not dare to make a fire, fearing that the light would attract wild animals and enemies in the forest.
"We only brought enough food for ten days in total. It's almost been ten days in a blink of an eye. If we keep dragging it on like this, the soldiers will have to find a way to collect some usable food while they are hiding." Su Jinrong sat down next to He Beichen.
He and Su Minghao kept watch separately, splitting into two shifts. This was their own request, saying that it would make them feel more at ease this way.
During the day, everyone just ate their dry food while resting, and the soldiers on guard at night took out their dry food to eat.
However, since we didn't know how long we would be staying here, everyone was very frugal with their food.
For those of them who are on a mission in the jungle, if they run out of dry food, they can only eat some "game". Of course, it is best not to eat it if possible.
He Beichen took out his dry food, but there was only enough for one day. If they continued to delay like this, they would only be able to gnaw on tree roots and grass.
"There's very little ammunition left, and that's even after we've looted and killed the Yue soldiers. If we encounter a few more waves of enemies, we'll just have to use our bodies to resist, and even counterattacks will be difficult." Su Jinrong let out a light 'tsk' sound.
Although their current guerrilla strategy is effective and there have been no casualties so far, it cannot withstand long-term consumption.
He Beichen looked at many soldiers who didn't eat much dry food. They just filled their stomachs and then put it away again.
Everyone was an elite and knew that this guerrilla war might last a long time, so they were all deliberately saving dry food.
Hunger can be tolerated temporarily, but ammunition cannot.
"What do you think?" He Beichen looked at Su Jinrong and asked.
He couldn't have come here suddenly just to say this, there must be something else he hadn't finished saying.
"Have you noticed that when the Vietnamese soldiers were searching for us today, they were obviously not as anxious or aggressive as they were the day before. They were much more cautious and did not seem to want to have a head-on conflict with us." Su Jinrong came closer and analyzed with him.
"..." He Beichen's face was not very good. We were all smart people, and many things did not need to be explained too clearly.
Looking at his expression, Su Jinrong knew that He Beichen understood what he meant.
The Yue soldiers' current plan is probably to trap them within the border, try to avoid direct conflict, and do not want to be consumed unnecessarily.
"I think we must find a way to break out as soon as possible. We can't continue to be trapped here and have to use guerrilla tactics to keep evading." Su Jinrong said after seeing that he understood.
"I understand." He Beichen nodded, agreeing with this.
He had also thought about this problem, but he had not yet come up with a more suitable way to break through.
He took out the drone he had retrieved earlier and prepared to survey the nearby terrain so that he could find a way to break out.
However, as soon as I took out the drone, I found that it was almost out of battery.
The battery life of this drone is really good. If they were not trapped, the battery would be enough to support them to return safely, not to mention that it is under such high-intensity use.
He Beichen couldn't help but feel fortunate that he had asked his wife to prepare spare batteries.
After he replaced the battery, he took off the drone.
"The border is to the west, but the defense in this area is relatively loose. Not many people are searching?" Su Jinrong followed him to check the images sent back by the drone and couldn't help but be a little surprised.
There is a piece of land in the west where there are no Yue soldiers. Not far away is the border line between the two sides, and it is not particularly far from their current location.
He Beichen used a drone to survey the area and determined the location.
"We did some reconnaissance before we set off. It was a minefield. The Yue Kingdom had buried a lot of mines there. I'm afraid they themselves didn't know the exact location, so they naturally didn't dare to get close." He Beichen responded after confirming.
He Beichen remembered very clearly the information he had obtained before departure.
Su Jinrong suddenly realized that it was no wonder that the Yue soldiers themselves did not search this area. It seemed that it was unlikely to break out from here.
Even with a detector...
There is no guarantee that they can pass safely, right?
They looked around again and found that the border line was covered with Vietnamese soldiers except for this minefield.
Although they relaxed their search efforts at night, they strengthened the border guards to prevent them from attacking under the cover of darkness.
The drone circled around but didn't find any suitable place to break out.
"It's unlikely to break out under the cover of night. It's more appropriate to break out during the day." After reading it, Su Jinrong's face darkened.
"Um."
The two men had a brief discussion and decided to find a way to get close to the border tomorrow, and then break out at any time according to the situation.
"Go to bed first. You didn't get enough rest last night." After discussing the plan, Su Jinrong urged him to rest.
He Beichen used the drone to check and found that the Vietnamese soldiers could not find this place yet, so he felt relieved and took back the drone and went to rest.
…
"Oh no, Commander, the Vietnamese soldiers are surrounding us!" Before dawn the next day, shouts suddenly came.
