There was a 70% chance that the other party would send people to rescue the mountain fire, and there was a 30% chance that they would ignore it. Jiang Cheng was waiting to see what choice they would make.
If the mountain fire was allowed to spread, the damage and pollution would be immeasurable. Even if Jiang Cheng and the other "terrorists" were burned to death, it would still be a loss for them. Only by capturing them alive and revealing the organization behind them could it be considered a victory. Just to eliminate a small group of terrorists, they had to pay the price of burning the entire mountain. Who knew what kind of accountability the officer who made such a decision would face?
Jiang Cheng smiled faintly as he looked at the noisy police and military crowd below. The mountain fire was a good thing. The smoke and dust from the burning could hinder the dogs' search and investigation. The black smoke and ashes would choke their nostrils. Without the dogs, if they wanted to find traces of them in the mountains, they could try. On the other hand, it could also delay time so that the police and military would be busy fighting the fire and have no time to look for traces of them.
(Burn, burn, the bigger the better!) Jiang Cheng thought gloatingly with the corner of his mouth slightly raised.
While Jiang Cheng was watching from the side, the mountain fire became more and more intense. In the blink of an eye, a fire snake split open on the green gem-like mountain and gradually expanded. Jiang Cheng ran and lit fires along the way. These fires connected together and became more and more vigorous. The crackling sound of the trees burning was endless. Black smoke billowed, and in an instant, the mountain was covered with a layer of black fog. This black fog drifted everywhere in the mountains and forests, and the air was covered with a layer of burnt smell.
"Let these stupid dogs smell and search for traces of us," Jiang Cheng thought sarcastically as he squatted on the top of the tree.
Seeing that the fire was gradually spreading towards them, Jiang Cheng stood up and began to run to the top of the mountain where Zhang Wei was. He jumped on the tree very quickly. Along the way, he could hear the police and military shouting from afar. Some people had already begun to carry out simple extinguishing operations, such as cutting a isolation belt. Unfortunately, once a fire broke out in this long-uninhabited mountain forest, the speed at which it spread was far beyond their imagination. Without professionals and tools, it was wishful thinking to want to extinguish the mountain fire.
After walking for two to three hundred meters, Jiang Cheng jumped from the tree to the ground and moved forward. After all, moving forward at the top of the tree consumed a lot of True Qi and physical strength. It was better to use it less if it was not necessary.
In fact, turning back and launching a sneak attack in this situation was also an excellent choice. With the raging fire and the smoke all around, hiding in the Android could easily conceal his tracks and kill as many enemies as possible. However, Jiang Cheng did not intend to do so. If he launched a sneak attack while fighting the fire, wouldn't that dispel the other members' thoughts of entering the forest to fight the fire? His goal was to escape, not to kill as many people as possible. He disdained meaningless sneak attacks.
Jiang Cheng quickly returned to the top of the mountain where Zhang Wei was. When he arrived at the top of the mountain, he realized that Zhang Wei had been alert all this while. He had been discovered by Zhang Wei just now.
Zhang Wei, who had been lying on the ground and carefully observing the path, saw Jiang Cheng. He stood up and said, "Cheng Ge, this fire is really strong. What should we do next?"
"Wait!" Jiang Cheng answered affirmatively. He smiled and explained, "Let's see how they deal with it first. If there are no problems, it will be our turn to perform. Before that, we can only wait! Only when it's dark will we have a chance to escape. "
"Cheng Ge, I understand. I just need to stay here and observe the situation." Zhang Wei smiled and said to Jiang Cheng.
Jiang Cheng nodded. "That's right! You stay here. I'll go to the top of the mountain to see what's going on. "With that, he ran to the top of the mountain.
About ten minutes later, Jiang Cheng arrived near the top of the mountain. He looked at the center of the mountain that was emitting black smoke. It was really a big fire! Even from such a distance, they could see the blazing flames, as well as the busy figures of the police and soldiers. They had been completely stalled and could not organize a large-scale search operation for the time being. Looking at the rising black smoke made them feel very at ease.
After confirming that the development of the mountain fire was as expected, Jiang Cheng turned his head to look around. He found that there was a commotion in the southeast direction where he had come last night. There were cars sprinting over from the road in this direction. From afar, he could see the fiery-red bodies of the cars. He could immediately recognize that they were fire trucks. There were more than ten of them.
The corner of Jiang Cheng's mouth curled up. It should be a professional mountain fire rescue team. These guys had finally taken the first step of the plan. When a large number of mountain fire rescue team members entered the mountain, it would become more interesting. At the same time, there were police, military, and firefighters. There would be more gaps for them to escape.
Choosing a place with a better view, Jiang Cheng sat down cross-legged and waited quietly while cultivating. If he was hungry or thirsty, he could simply eat some compressed biscuits and purified water in his backpack. He continued to keep an eye on them and keep track of their movements.
Time passed by, and soon the newly arrived mountain fire rescue team began to enter the mountain to extinguish the fire. During this period, the police and military added another two to three hundred people. These people formed the escort team and fire support team and also entered the mountain. Their main task was to protect the mountain fire rescue team. On the other hand, they also had the intention of finding the terrorist organization in the mountain.
Naturally, Jiang Cheng saw such a large-scale mobilization of personnel at the foot of the mountain. He didn't care about it. Without military dogs and police dogs leading the way, it was difficult to find traces of them in such a misty mountain. Even if he found them, he could take down one or two members who were alone in an instant. He just needed to wait quietly.
Although there were hundreds of rescue teams trying to rescue the fire in the center of the forest, they had been delayed for a long time. The fire was growing rapidly, and with the help of the mountain wind, it had not been extinguished yet. Instead, it was getting stronger and stronger!
It was around six o 'clock in the afternoon. At this time, the sky had begun to darken. The forest fire in the distance was much smaller. Basically, the fire was under control, but it had not been completely extinguished. When Jiang Cheng was about to stand up and begin his operation, he suddenly heard gunshots from where Zhang Wei was! It seemed that he was fighting with someone.
Jiang Cheng immediately jumped up and ran toward the forest where Zhang Wei was. Not long after he ran, there were a few loud "boom" sounds coming from below. It sounded like a few grenades had exploded. He became even more anxious. This was not good news. It meant that Zhang Wei was in a very bad situation. The enemy was within thirty to fifty meters of him, which was a distance away from throwing grenades. In other words, he had no choice but to use this method to repel the enemy!
"Da da da!" The gunshots coming from where Zhang Wei was was getting more and more intense. It seemed that all the traps that he had previously set up for him were being used. He was using those traps to shoot at the enemy.
Jiang Cheng rushed over even faster. His heart was full of surprise. What happened? Why did Zhang Wei's gunshots sound so impatient and flustered? It was as if he was trying to suppress the enemy at all costs. Who was fighting him? How many people were there? From the gunshots, it sounded like there were at least fifty people. How did they find him? And this was bad news. Even if they managed to push him back, their reinforcements would soon arrive.
"Boom!" Another huge grenade explosion could be heard from the other side.
Jiang Cheng's heart was filled with anxiety. He quickened his pace …
A few minutes later, Jiang Cheng appeared in the forest where Zhang Wei was fighting. He was yelling as he pulled the trigger, firing bullets at those people. He had fallen into a state of near madness. All he knew was to keep shooting, shooting! Or to use grenades to suppress the enemy.
Jiang Cheng quickly ran to Zhang Wei's side. He crawled on the ground and looked ahead. He saw more than ten people lying on the ground in front of him. On both sides of the road, gunshots and sparks could be heard from time to time. Obviously, there were many people lying in ambush there. They were firing back from time to time.
"Zhang Wei, how many people are there on the other side?" Jiang Cheng tilted his head and asked Zhang Wei.
"Sixty to seventy people. More than ten have died!" Zhang Wei kept shooting. His forehead was covered in cold sweat as he said, "Cheng Ge, we can't hold on any longer. These guys are advancing from both sides of the mountain road, and they are all crawling on the ground. Other than killing a few of them in the beginning, we can only watch as they get closer. There's nothing we can do. Bullets, the bullets for the other guns are almost finished."
Jiang Cheng looked over there. There were steep slopes on both sides of the mountain road. If they crawled forward, they would indeed be in the blind spots of these guns. When they appeared again, they would already be very close. Even if they threw grenades from that position, the grenades would roll down the slope. The lethality was very low. It was indeed very troublesome to get rid of these people!
"Zhang Wei, how many grenades do you have on you? Give them all to me, "Jiang Cheng said to Zhang Wei.
"Only two left," Zhang Wei said as he handed the grenades hanging on his waist to Jiang Cheng.
Jiang Cheng took the grenades in his hand, pulled the ring on one of the grenades and said, "After we defeat these people temporarily, we will immediately change our position!"
Seeing that Jiang Cheng had pulled the grenade but was still holding it in his hand, Zhang Wei was shocked. He hurriedly wanted to remind him, "Cheng Ge, the grenade …"
Jiang Cheng smiled slightly and threw the grenade without saying anything!
"Boom!" The grenade had just landed on the slope when it immediately exploded. It hit the target!
This kind of grenade took three seconds from pulling the ring to exploding. Jiang Cheng had calculated the time to throw it, so it exploded as soon as it landed on the desired location. It hit those people squarely, and there was a series of screams. Obviously, many people were injured.
Zhang Wei was surprised and said with joy, "Cheng Ge, what kind of skill is this? It's equivalent to a small howitzer!"
