Before the drone got close, it could see billowing black smoke coming out from below. It was not just an explosion. The explosion had already caused a fire in the jungle.
It's just a small fire source now and it hasn't burned out completely. If left unchecked, it will definitely cause a forest fire.
There was a mess below, so Li Xin lowered the drone, but the black smoke obscured the view, and it was night, so the picture was still a little affected and not very clear.
But from the hazy image, it can be seen that two groups of people have met and are now fighting.
While the others engaged in long-range combat to attract the enemy, He Beichen and the twins took advantage of the night to go around from the side, suddenly appeared close to the enemy, and used a thunder attack on them.
They quickly dealt with the enemies in front of them, seized their weapons, and then fired at the other Yue soldiers at close range.
He Beichen and his men moved quickly and coordinated well. After a powerful attack, they did not fight hard but turned around and ran away.
"Commander, run quickly, don't worry about me!" A soldier was shot and fell to the ground during the retreat, injuring his leg.
"Shut up!"
Su Minghao ignored his shouts, immediately carried the man on his back, and ran away without saying a word.
He will never give up any of his comrades!
Su Jinrong helped to cover his retreat behind him, and the group moved flexibly through the jungle.
He Beichen ran at the back to provide cover, holding the gun he had just snatched from the Vietnamese soldiers.
They have now used up all their ammunition, otherwise this sudden encounter would not have been so difficult.
However, the Yue State did not gain anything good from this encounter. Now they wanted to chase He Beichen and the others, but they could not ignore the source of the fire and let it develop into a forest fire.
After all, this is still within their territory.
He Beichen and the others were able to escape temporarily. Li Xin could only roughly analyze the images sent back by the drone, but she felt relieved when she saw that they were safe and sound.
Li Xin controlled the drone and followed the person running in front. Although there was only a blurry shadow in the picture, like a human silhouette, she enlarged the silhouette to the maximum and even reached out to touch the silhouette gently, her eyes full of nostalgia.
Although it was just a silhouette of a side face, Li Xin could recognize it at a glance. This person was definitely He Beichen!
"I bet this must be Captain He!" The young soldier who was watching the receiver screen next to Li Xin turned around and gossiped with the people around him.
The young soldier beside him burped at this moment. The battle between those shadows just a second ago made his blood boil, but the next second he was suddenly fed a mouthful of dog food and choked.
"They are quite far away from the border line and are now in this place!" Li Xin realized that there were still soldiers there, and withdrew his hand awkwardly and zoomed out the map.
The picture showed the complete appearance of that area. Li Xin pointed to the location where the black smoke was coming out, and then pointed to where they were. Now they could confirm the specific location of He Beichen and the others.
"Have you found Captain He?" Zhang Yang arrived just in time and heard what Li Xin had just said.
Li Xin was just about to explain the situation to these soldiers and wanted to hear their thoughts.
But now that Zhang Yang came over, Li Xin immediately pulled him aside to explain the situation.
Zhang Yang couldn't help but frown when he saw the location shown on the screen.
"Comrade Xiao Li, come with me and have a meeting together." Zhang Yang came over and called Li Xin away.
Zhang Yang took her to a large tent where two people were sitting.
"This is Captain Wu and Deputy Captain Luo who are stationed at the border all year round, and this is Comrade Xiao Li who came from the research institute." Zhang Yang gave her a brief introduction.
Li Xin looked at the sand table, map and blackboard here. There were even some things written on the blackboard. It seemed that the three of them had been holding a meeting here before the explosion.
After she greeted the two group leaders, she was invited to sit down.
"Now there's a new development. The explosion that occurred in the minefield early yesterday morning, judging from the drone footage this afternoon, seems to have been caused by He Beichen and his team. Five soldiers leading four researchers couldn't accomplish this."
As Zhang Yang spoke, he planted a red flag in the woods on the sand table, and then planted another red flag at the place where the explosion had just occurred.
"The forest is very close to the border, but He Beichen and his men didn't try to break out. Instead, they moved back. The Yue Kingdom's search efforts were very weak at night. With He Beichen's leadership ability, it was impossible for them to have a head-on encounter and trigger such a sensational battle," he analyzed.
"It's really strange. Instead of hiding at night, they ran back. It seems like they did it on purpose." Deputy Captain Luo looked at the two red flags in the sand table, holding his chin and thinking.
Li Xin was standing nearby, also looking at the sand table. Judging from the route, He Beichen and his men were indeed moving in a disorganized manner. It didn't look like they were trying to go around anywhere or break out.
"The researcher is now separated from them. Could it be that He Beichen knows that they have not escaped yet, so he deliberately stays within the border of Yue State and causes some disturbances from time to time. His purpose is to divert Yue State's attention so that the researcher can break out in the chaos?" Captain Wu looked for a while and suddenly made a guess.
After a few people thought about it, they felt that it made sense.
Especially Li Xin, she knew that He Beichen had a drone that could detect the enemy's distribution, and it was impossible for him not to notice the ambush of the Vietnamese soldiers.
As long as he wants to avoid the Yue soldiers, it should be a relatively easy thing to do.
If he were to encounter such a tough situation, it could only be that he did it on purpose.
"I have found the researcher's hiding place. Please ask Captain Ding to lead the team to pick him up." Li Xin said quickly.
"Well, Ding Cheng has already sent someone to report. The place is a bit far away. If he leads the team and travels overnight, they will probably just arrive at the place now... I just don't know if the researcher has taken advantage of the chaos to break out this time." Zhang Yang calculated and spoke with some concern.
Li Xin shook her head. When she flew over with a drone, she saw the Vietnamese soldiers guarding the border line, who didn't even move.
There is a high probability that the Yue soldiers over there are the same. The researcher is accompanied by soldiers and should not take such risks.
"Now we can only wait for Ding Cheng to pick up the researcher, and we can immediately start preparing to pick up He Beichen!" said Captain Wu.
It’s not that I don’t want to respond now, but I can’t.
Li Xin sighed, still feeling a lingering fear when he thought about the impact of the battle he saw that night.
Now she only hopes that Ding Cheng can pick up the researcher as soon as possible so that He Beichen will have no worries.
