Chapter 228 The Cobra Special Forces of Heavenly Poison?
The Aksai Chin Plateau is desolate in summer.

Under the scorching sun, there was no water source, and not even a trace of green could be seen in the distance.

A gust of wind blew by, stirring up dust.

A group of people, numbering no less than a hundred, are traveling on the plateau, their members dressed in various styles.

The seven or eight people at the front were all wearing windbreakers, hats, goggles, and sweat-absorbing headscarves. The biggest one was naturally the nanny.

"Brother, the people behind us are urging us on. We need to hurry and get to a water source as soon as possible. Those mules and horses might not be able to hold on if they don't drink water soon!"

Liu Yang caught up from behind and reminded him.

The wet nurse glanced back and saw hundreds of people following behind the herd of mules and horses, each wearing a long robe and a headscarf, completely covered from head to toe.

"We'll be off the plateau for about 20 kilometers, and we'll reach the Renqi River in less than 10 kilometers."

The nanny took a sip of water and asked, "I can speed things up, but I don't know if the people behind me can keep up?"

Liu Yang immediately replied, "They are absolutely fine."

The nanny nodded without saying anything and quickened her pace.

Before dusk, the group stopped in a valley, where they could hear the rushing sound of water from afar.

"We've arrived! We'll camp here tonight!"

Liu Yang breathed a sigh of relief and, along with the nanny and seven or eight others, found an open space and began setting up tents.

Not far away, the group of people in long robes also stopped. After unloading all the large boxes from the mules and horses, they led the animals to the river to drink.

"Here you go, buddy!" Liu Yang handed over a piece of dried chicken cutlet and sat down next to the nanny. "Thanks for your hard work!"

"What's the hardship? We've already been paid."

The nanny seemed to remember something and asked, "Didn't you say we'd leave in a month? Why is the departure date earlier? It almost made me lose my leave."

Liu Yang gulped down a mouthful of his drink and said, "Do you remember when we came here last time, weren't there two other people behind us?"

"I remember, what's wrong?" The nanny remained calm, knowing that the other person was referring to Qi Ruibiao and the monkey.

Liu Yang: "Damn it, those two guys are missing! They might have had an accident in the mountains. The boss is worried that things might get complicated if we wait too long, so he's urging us to leave right away!"

The nanny took a bite of the chicken cutlet and frowned: "Your supplies this time are really lacking. You should have brought more pork and beef. Bringing so much dry chicken cutlet is awful. I should have brought more food myself."

"Brother, please understand, the boss and his colleagues don't eat beef or pork!" Liu Yang explained with a smile.

"Too many people is troublesome. No, even if it's smuggling, you don't need so many people following you, do you?"

The nanny suddenly asked in a low voice, "Hey, your boss and the others don't eat this or that, they seem like some kind of religious group."

"Shh! Dude, keep your voice down, they understand Chinese!" Liu Yang quickly reminded him, lowering his voice, "Speak less, or you'll get yourself into trouble!"

The two had a secret conversation before setting off. In order to persuade the wet nurse to continue serving as a guide, Liu Yang not only offered a high price but also revealed a little about their business, stating that he and his group were engaged in human smuggling, but the profits were huge and they could recruit the wet nurse to join them.

The wet nurse pretended to hesitate for a few days, but only agreed after Liu Yang raised the price again.

In other words, Liu Yang now considers the wet nurse to be half one of his own, so she speaks more boldly in front of him.

"Brother Liu, not to be nosy, but since we're in the smuggling business, the fewer people the better. With such a huge group following us, aren't we afraid of being discovered over there?"

"The boss and his team have other business to attend to this time and will be staying here for a while. Let's not worry about them; as long as we make money, that's all that matters."

"Oh."

The wet nurse didn't say anything more. After eating a little something, she went into the tent to prepare for sleep.

A moment later, two men in long robes approached and said to Liu Yang in broken Chinese, "No rest allowed, we must continue on our way!"

Everyone on Liu Yang's side changed their expressions. The nanny also crawled out of the tent upon hearing this, glaring at the other party: "What did you say?"

"Keep on going!"

"What the hell are you talking about? We've already set up our tents and now you're telling me we need to keep going? Where were you all this time?"

The nanny immediately started cursing, "Damn it, I'm tired. I don't walk at night. Whoever wants to walk can walk!"

A man in a long robe immediately stepped forward, grabbed the wet nurse by the collar, and said fiercely, "Say that again?!"

The nanny glanced down at the other person's exposed wrist, which had a cobra head tattoo. Although she remained outwardly calm, she was inwardly taken aback.

"What's wrong with me saying it again? I'm not leaving!" The nanny suddenly pushed the other person away with all her might.

Click!

Suddenly, another robed man pulled out a pistol from somewhere and pointed it directly at the nanny, while another man who had been pushed a few steps away also pulled out an MP5 from his robe.

The next moment, everyone froze, too afraid to move.

"Oh, we're all on the same side! On the same side!"

Liu Yang quickly stepped forward, forcing a smile, "Misunderstanding! Misunderstanding! We'll pack our bags and get ready to leave right away!"

Another person came over with an MP5, poked the nanny's face a few times with the barrel, and then turned and left with a cold smile.

call!
Once the two men were out of sight, Liu Yang finally breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the nanny with lingering fear: "Brother, you were really too impulsive just now!"

The nanny looked both shocked and panicked: "Brother Liu... Brother Liu! How come they have guns?!"

"They were hired by the boss to escort the goods, so we have to follow their arrangements! Stop standing around and get ready!"

"Damn! They dare to bring guns in? Don't they have a death wish?"

"This is not our business."

"Damn it, I'm angry because these people just watched us set up the tent without saying a word, and then when we were about to go to sleep they came over and said they wanted to leave. Isn't that just deliberately trying to annoy us?" The nanny cursed as she started taking down the tent.

Liu Yang sighed, "Sigh! They outnumber us and have guns, and the boss listens to them... Brother, just bear with it!"

Are these people mercenaries?

"I don't know, the boss hired them all... Wait, what are you doing here?"

"I need to poop! That chicken cutlet made my stomach upset!"

"Hurry up, don't waste time!"

"Know!"

The wet nurse ran to the downstream side of the valley, squatted behind a large rock, and muttered to herself while looking at the digital watch on her wrist:
"Total number 104. These people do not eat beef or pork. One of them has a cobra head tattoo on his wrist. They are currently known to be carrying Beretta 92F and HK-MP5 weapons!"

. . .

. . .

The mountain pasture was deserted, with no people or livestock.

According to intelligence from Sirius, the ranch owner had moved out a week ago, presumably fearing retaliation. Around noon the next day, all the personnel from the Sixth Company arrived. After Old Wang surveyed the terrain, they set up the ranch as a temporary camp, and the cooks began preparing food.

After lunch, everyone went to sleep immediately. Since it was summer, the soldiers would just find something to cover their heads and fall asleep.

We got up to eat again in the evening, and then continued moving forward.

According to intelligence, the target had just passed Aksai Chin and was about three days away from here. The Sixth Company was to continue towards the second ambush point.

Xu Ge, Li Dongshui, and three military dogs led the way, and everyone rushed to Hakardaban overnight.

Around 11 p.m., the troops arrived at the foot of the pass. Old Wang ordered the troops to rest on the spot, and the cadres and key personnel were called aside for another meeting.

"The enemy has set off overnight, which will shorten their journey. To be on the safe side, we'll wait at the second ambush point!"

The atmosphere immediately became tense after Old Wang said that.

This means that the sixth team could collide with the target as early as tomorrow night!
"According to the intelligence brought back by the undercover agent, the total number of the enemy is 104, of which 30 are likely members of the Tiandu military and are equipped with standard weapons!"

Old Wang said in a deep voice, "In view of this situation, after the troops arrive at the ambush position, I will re-examine the terrain and clarify the blocking positions for each squad!"

Liu Guoping's expression was serious: "Thirty men in a well-organized unit, carrying standard weapons, have come into our territory? Is Tiandu trying to fly to the heavens?!"

Guo Yuanshuai looked at Lao Wang: "The situation has escalated! This needs to be reported immediately, or it might alarm the military!"

Old Wang nodded: "Yes! I've already reported to the brigade commander. His idea is that until a clear order is issued, our mission remains unchanged: to annihilate the enemy completely!"

"No, what is Tiandu trying to do with this?" Luo Shan frowned. "I know they want to support that armed group, but do they have to be so blatant? Aren't they afraid we'll expose the bodies and launch a propaganda war against them?"

Old Wang's eyes flashed: "This matter is not that simple... Putting that aside for now, each squad and platoon must immediately cross the pass and assemble at the foot of the mountain on the other side, which is the bank of the Renqi River!"

"Yes!"

Anyway, everyone brought night vision goggles this time, so there were no obstacles to walking at night.

At 3:30 a.m., the troops crossed the Hakarda Pass and arrived at the Renqi River.

Wow!
The sound of the rushing river could be heard from afar.

After Lao Wang arrived, he immediately identified the positions of each shift, with the third platoon at the forefront, establishing a blocking position directly facing the river.

By the time everyone was in place, it was almost four o'clock.

Xu Ge and Li Dongshui were located behind a scree beach halfway up the mountain, about 480 meters from the valley.

Li Dongshui was adjusting the mirror according to the parameters reported by Xu Ge, while Xu Ge took off the rocket and grenade launcher he was carrying and put them aside.

Guo Yuanshuai lay behind the two men, smoking a cigarette, and said, "You know where everyone else is, right?"

"clear!"

"Go to sleep after you're ready. The cooks won't bring your meals until dawn."

"Are you cold, squad leader? Let me put your raincoat on you." Xu Ge turned around and prepared to take the raincoat out of his bag.

The temperature in the mountains was very low in the early morning, and Xu Ge knew that Guo Yuanshuai's back injury would flare up when it got cold.

Guo Yuanshuai shook his head: "Wearing a bulletproof vest is warm enough..."

"Monitor!"

Old Wang suddenly slid down from above.

Guo Yuanshuai was a little puzzled: "Why are you, the commander, running to the front instead of staying in the back?"

"Squad leader, have a cigarette first!" Old Wang said with a grin, reaching out his hand.

Unlike the tense state of others before the battle, Lao Wang was relaxed all over, as if he didn't take the upcoming battle seriously at all.

Guo Yuanshuai ignored him, rested his head on a rock and exhaled smoke: "Get lost if you have nothing to do, don't disturb my sleep!"

Old Wang seemed to know where Guo Yuanshuai hid his cigarettes. He suddenly reached into one of the outer pockets of the other man's tactical vest, took out a cigarette case and lighter, and lit one for himself.

"Squad leader, I've come to discuss something with you, information about the wet nurse!" Old Wang said in a low voice.

Guo Yuanshuai immediately sat up: "What intelligence?"

Old Wang: "I didn't go into details during the meeting just now. The information that came from the nanny said that someone has a cobra head tattoo on their hand and is using a Beretta 92F pistol and an MP5 submachine gun!"

“Beretta and MP5? That’s a common combination for special forces teams, isn’t it?” Guo Yuanshuai’s eyes lit up. “But it’s definitely not the Cobra Special Forces from Tiandu!”

Old Wang laughed: "Squad leader, you think the same way I do."

Xu Ge and Li Dongshui were completely confused. Seeing that the squad leader was not speaking and seemed to be thinking about something, Xu Ge kicked Lao Wang's shoe and asked, "What cobra?"

Old Wang, puffing on his cigarette, said, "The Cobra Special Forces are a secret unit of Tiandu, with an estimated strength of over a thousand people. These people like to get cobra tattoos on their bodies to show off."

Xu Ge suddenly realized: "Oh, so these people are really that awesome?"

"It's nothing special. I killed a few of them a few years ago," Old Wang said casually.

Li Dongshui turned around, her eyes clear: "Didn't you just say you had a tattoo? Why did the class monitor say you definitely didn't?"

Xu Ge: "Is that even a question? They've already crossed the border, so they're definitely going to try every possible way to hide their identities! We even use foreign military weapons when we go abroad!"

"So, those people were deliberately impersonating the Sky Poison Cobra?" Li Dongshui suddenly realized, then thought of something else, "Wait a minute, why would they impersonate them?"

Old Wang looked at Guo Yuanshuai: "This is the problem, and it's why I came to discuss it with the squad leader."

This problem is actually easy to understand. If the enemy doesn't want to be identified, they can simply hide all their features; there's no need to add anything unnecessary.

Guo Yuanshuai suddenly spoke up: "Didn't Xu Ge say that the goods entered the country from Stan? Did you check there later?"

"I checked, there's no problem!" Old Wang replied immediately.

Guo Yuanshuai pressed on, "How did you investigate?"

"We used field agents from Stan, and the investigation results are quite reliable!"

Old Wang looked at Guo Yuanshuai and said, "Squad leader, at first I also suspected that it was Stan Country that sent people, but Tiandu is now really increasing its troops on the border! This is to attract our attention and cover for these people. I really don't understand!"

"Is it possible that this armed drug traffickers not only received support from the Tiandu military, but also had connections with the Stan country?"

Guo Yuanshuai said in a deep voice, "Even Tiandu was kept in the dark and used as a pawn by the Stan Kingdom?"

Old Wang felt that Guo Yuanshuai's speculation was really outrageous: "Squad leader, then what do you think Stan Country is trying to achieve by doing this?"

"Don't forget, Stan is the country closest to the Golden Crescent. Who wouldn't want to make money from drugs?"

"The Taliban and Iran are also possibilities, why are you so insistent on it being a Stan country?"

“Because of Beretta 92F!” Guo Yuanshuai suddenly said.

Lao Wang:? ? ?
"Squad leader, what do you mean? What's wrong with this pistol?"
