Chapter 2480: Pursuit
More than 700 people, divided into several trucks, and then all kinds of cars set off from Lao Cai, heading across the border along the highway.
At this time, two hours had passed since the Youth Army set out. The Youth Army was walking, while the Yang Family Army was driving. So the distance was getting closer and closer.
Yang Jingyun knew the terrain, and the Youth Army could only go near the customs checkpoint because it was the safest there.
After all, that place was too close to the big country. Unless their brains were squeezed by the door, no one would go there to cause trouble.
Yang Jingyun sat in an off-road vehicle and kept looking at the watch. According to the time, they should catch up with the Youth Army in one hour and forty minutes.
Although this was the case in theory, he still wanted to catch up earlier. The farther away from the customs, the higher the safety factor.
However, this road was too bad. Although it was a highway, years of war and disrepair had made this road bumpy.
In fact, this road was built by the big country. In order to build this Burma Road, the price paid at the time was not small.
But now this road in the big country has become a highway, while in Kokang, it has not even been able to keep its original appearance for decades.
Yang Jingyun didn't care about these things. The road conditions had nothing to do with him. He was a profit-seeking person and would not do anything that didn't benefit him.
The driver had been with him for ten years and was very skilled in driving. This was why he chose him to replace his old driver without hesitation after seeing him driving.
He drove fast all the way and quickly avoided big potholes, keeping the car's bumps within a tolerable range.
But the vehicles behind him were not doing well. They followed closely behind and could only choose speed, and could not care about anything else.
So the convoy seemed to become a trampoline, rising and falling on the road from time to time, and the drivers were terrified, fearing that the car would suddenly fall apart.
Occasionally, a few clouds floated across the blue sky, constantly changing their shapes under the breeze. Like naughty children.
The trees on both sides seemed to be scorched by the scorching sun, and the green leaves drooped down, listless. They disdained this group of people who were rushing on the road.
Heizi did not sit in the car, but walked with the soldiers like several battalion commanders and company commanders, carrying some luggage for some exhausted soldiers from time to time.
Along the way, although it was a forced march, the results of several years of training finally showed up, and no one fell behind.
The only regret of Heizi was that this team was good in everything except the weapons. Except for a few light machine guns, there were basically no heavy weapons.
In fact, most of the armed forces in Kokang were like this. Although everyone was a soldier, the weapons and equipment were too poor, and they were basically light weapons.
The reason for this was not only poverty, but also international restrictions. If a place where drugs are rampant has heavy weapons, the consequences will be disastrous.
Although drugs have been banned, what if it recurs? No one can bear the consequences. Therefore, the arms dealers have reached a tacit agreement not to transport heavy weapons here.
The Myanmar Army is an exception. After all, it is a sovereign state and is no longer subject to restrictions.
This is also the main reason why the government remains unmoved despite so many anti-government armed forces in Myanmar. After all, the result of shooting at cannons with rifles is predictable.
For so many years, various organizations have been mainly self-protection, and at most they have claimed autonomy, but they will never attack the territory belonging to the government army.
Heizi knew very well that their first battle would probably be an internal conflict, that is, fighting with the Yang family army. But what he didn't understand was why they didn't build fortifications on the side of the old street and hit the enemy hard, but had to flee to the border?
However, no matter how they didn't understand, they still had to obey the orders. This is the minimum quality of a military commander, and they can't violate it even if they ask after completing the mission.
The hot climate did not pose a threat to the young army. Born here and raised here. It's unbearable if it's not this kind of climate.
The only thing that makes Heizi hesitate now is whether to stop and make a fire to cook? Because the soldiers are hungry.
Liu Ling sat in the middle of the pickup truck. She has lived in China most of the time, especially in the past few years, she has been in Beijing. This kind of climate has made her uncomfortable.
But this pickup truck didn't even have air conditioning, so even though she had the window open, she was sweating profusely.
Her floral dress was soaked with sweat and stuck to her body, making her figure even more curvy. Although the driver in front tried his best to restrain himself, he couldn't help but glance at the rearview mirror.
Liu Ling was also very hungry. She had been running all the way from morning to now and hadn't eaten anything. But she could hold it in because Ye Mao said that someone would meet them at the border.
She looked at the watch and it was already past two in the afternoon. When the weather was the hottest, the soldiers' physical strength was obviously consumed.
Although Heizi and the others didn't report to her, Liu Ling was not stupid and naturally understood the situation of the soldiers.
But she didn't want to stop and rest. It was her first time leading troops, and she was very panicked. She wanted to see the person who met her as soon as possible. Although it wasn't Ye Mao, as long as it was someone sent by Ye Mao, she could be completely at ease.
She picked up the phone several times, wanting to ask how the preparations were over there? Was there anything to eat or drink?
But she put it down several times because she didn't want to burden Ye Mao. Although that guy is very capable, he is still a boy younger than me. I should protect him instead of letting him bear the burden for me.
After asking the driver to park the car on the side of the road, Liu Ling got out of the car and decided to walk with the soldiers for a while. Although she was wearing a dress and high heels, which was not suitable for marching, she felt that she should share the joys and sorrows with the soldiers.
Seeing her getting out of the car, the soldiers saluted one after another. Liu Ling waved his hand and told them to move on, while he stood on the roadside waiting for Heizi.
After a while, Heizi hurried over and saluted Liu Ling immediately when he saw him:
"Miss, why are you down? Get in the car quickly."
Liu Ling rolled her eyes at him: "What kind of young lady am I? It's not like I haven't gone through military training and I'm not that squeamish. I'll accompany you for a while!"
Heizi complained in his heart, isn't this adding trouble? I still have to take care of the soldiers. How dare I leave you when you come down?
But he didn't dare to say this. Although he was the commander of the first army, the young lady was the soul of the youth army. He could not have any other emotions except obedience.
Following Liu Ling closely, he suddenly noticed her high heels. Heizi said helplessly:
"Miss, you can't walk in these shoes. Your feet will be worn out soon."
Liu Ling walked for a short distance and felt uncomfortable in her shoes. After only a slight hesitation, she took off her shoes and knocked off two heels. Not to mention, it made walking much more comfortable.
Heizi is not tall and belongs to the position of axle man. Looking at the young lady who was even higher than her at an altitude without her heels, she felt very helpless.
Although men in Southeast Asia are generally not tall, they still feel pressured by a woman who is taller than him.
In fact, Liu Ling is not trying to be brave. She had military training in college, and she also consciously exercises her physical fitness. Not to mention girls, most boys are not as good as her in physical fitness.
After walking for a short period of time, except for the sweat, he didn't show any signs of embarrassment, and he walked very easily. This can't be tolerated.
Heizi shouted at the team: "Look at Miss, look at how cowardly you are, speed up!"
The soldiers looked at Liu Ling with smiles, and they were all in high spirits, as men are like this. Being watched by a beautiful woman will make you feel energetic. What's more, this woman is still their big boss!
The smuggler soon came back with a few cows. There was a big pot in the warehouse, and Yang Geyong was an expert at killing cows and sheep. Three times five times two times, the cow will be put down and skinned by him.
The smuggler and the driver were stunned. Is this still a human being? A cow can fall down if it is grabbed by its horns, and then stabbed with a knife, it becomes silent.
Ye Mao was obviously not very good at this. He tried several times without success, so he simply peeled off the skin and cut the flesh.
Two delicate beauties, Ouyang Xue and Minnie, also transformed into little cooks, collecting firewood to light the fire. Although their faces were black and red, a large pot of water finally boiled.
Several cows cannot be cooked in one pot. There happened to be some military pots in the warehouse. Putting a few rocks on them, you can heat the pot again.
The snakehead had to collect firewood because of his shoulder injury. At least there is no shortage of firewood in this forest.
The warehouse is about ten kilometers away from the customs and not on the main road. Ye Mao was afraid that Liu Ling and the others would not be able to find it, so he specifically described the location.
There was no positioning system at this time, so we had to rely on talk. Liu Ling, who was walking, saw the text message and raised the corners of her mouth. She didn't know how sweet it was.
At this time, the distance between the two sides was only five kilometers. Heizi turned around and saw smoke and dust billowing behind him. He was shocked. Could it be that the Yang Jiajun caught up so quickly? Shall they not rush back from the front?
When things got to this point, Heizi made a decisive decision, no matter who came? The number of people watching the movement is indispensable.
So he asked Liu Ling to lead the large army and leave first, leaving behind one of his own. If there are too many enemies, he will find a way to lure them away. After all, he cannot expose the location of the responder.
It's not that Heizi is afraid of Yang Jiajun, but that he can't put the person in charge into danger. Although Heizi doesn't know who the pick-up person is? But he understood that this person must be a very important person to the lady.
Liu Ling did not show any pretense and immediately led the team to accelerate forward, while Heizi led the men to briefly arrange the fortifications and then lurked, preparing to block the enemy.
Because of the dense vegetation, Yang Jingyun and the others did not discover the young army in front. However, because the youth army also had a car, they still saw the rolling dust in front of them.
After thinking for a moment, Yang Jingyun ordered the driver to speed up. He was basically sure that Liu Ling and the others must be in front of them.
As for others telling him that the team had a thousand people, he didn't care at all. Even if there were ten thousand people with a bunch of little cubs that didn't have all their fur, he would still dare to lead the team to charge.
Soon, the team entered Kuroko's ambush circle. Although Heizi and the others were brave, they had never been in actual combat. Each of the soldiers held their guns nervously and were sweating.
Heizi's eyes were fixed on the big truck at the front, with a heavy machine gun mounted on it, and he almost cried out.
Heavy weapons, they don't have any at the moment, this is a must!
So, he took out a grenade and threw it violently when the car was about to pass in front of them.
The grenade was thrown out a few seconds after the safety was pulled. So, it exploded as soon as it hit the ground.
There was a "boom", and after the truck shook a few times, the front of the truck turned and lay across the road. Then an eye popped up inside the driver's cab. The fuel tank was blown to pieces and the engine caught fire.
Then there was a burst of gunfire. The soldiers on the truck were about to jump out of the truck, but several people were hit and fell directly.
The soldiers of the Youth Army fired a flurry of shots, but their accuracy was not very high. It was just that because the Yang Family Army was concentrated in a large group, many people were also hit.
Yang Jingyun's car was also hit by several bullets, but because his car was bulletproof, nothing happened. He was not brave, but after all, he had been on the battlefield for a long time, and this little battle did not scare him.
He quickly ordered in the car: "The enemy is on both sides of the road, and there are not many of them. Everyone get off the car immediately, find shelter, and fight on their own."
It must be said that Yang Jingyun's command ability is very good. As soon as this order was issued, the situation on the battlefield was immediately reversed.
The Yang Family Army was also a team that fought to the end. They immediately found shelters and started to fight back in classes.
There were more than 700 people, and the black army only had more than 100 people left. In addition, the Yang Family Army had a lot of heavy weapons, especially the heavy machine guns that fired violently, which suppressed the Youth Army and made them unable to raise their heads instantly.
At this time, Heizi and a few others had already reached the side of the first car. Several soldiers holding submachine guns took turns to cover him. Heizi jumped directly onto the burning truck, picked up the machine gun and jumped down.
Several young soldiers carrying bullets also jumped down. At this time, the Yang family army had discovered them and surrounded them. A stray bullet hit a young soldier, and he fell to the ground, but soon he moved forward on the ground holding the box.
Heizi turned around with the machine gun and fired. The Yang family army who tried to surround them were repelled, and two soldiers took the opportunity to hide in the woods with the injured soldiers.
Heizi couldn't let go of the machine gun and shouted: "Quick, load the bullets, I'm going to kill today!"
The gunshots here alarmed Yang Geyong and others who were cooking meat. Yang Geyong threw the shovel and ran over there. Ye Mao followed closely.
Ouyang Xue and Minnie were not willing to fall behind, and they also chased behind. Not long after running, they saw Liu Ling coming towards them with a large group of people.
Seeing Ye Mao, Liu Ling was stunned at first, and then burst into tears of joy. She never thought that the person who greeted her would be this enemy.
With a "whimper", she rushed over and hugged Ye Mao and refused to let go.
Yang Geyong scolded: "What time is it? Are you still sentimental? What's going on?"
Liu Ling raised her head and blushed as she explained the matter.
Yang Geyong reached out and grabbed a submachine gun, and told Ye Mao:
"You treat them well, I'll go and see what's going on."
Ye Mao turned his head and said to Ouyang Xue: "You treat them well, I'll be back soon! Very soon."()
