Snake 32

  Takahashi's base camp.

  "Captain Takagi, are we just going to sit back and watch the enemy occupy our throat with impunity?" said the guard commander beside him.

  "Hehe, it's not going to be easy for Kōji Takaishi to get a foothold at Yamahai Station." said Takashi Kōdai, looking at the map.

  "He thought we were all fools, nobody could see the importance of Eagle's Mouth, that was a big mistake. I had been there before he came, otherwise how could we have caught them off guard before his arrival."

  "The reason we didn't occupy that place is because it's too far from our camp, and the Eagle's Mouth is also Liu's key defense area. I had taken it down long ago, but it was his turn to build a stronghold there. However, I also left him a big gift, I don't know if he can handle it."

  "Long live the Great Japanese Empire, Captain Takaki is brave and martial."

  "Hmph, Kouma Kensei, I'll see how you swallow the great gift I've given you. I hope you won't waste my painstaking efforts." said Takagi Junichirou, looking at Yamatokage's mouth.

  "Commander, over there a soldier was bitten by a venomous snake." The guard rushed over to report to Gao Jiancheng.

  Gao Jiancheng and Liu Jun exchanged a glance and rushed over hastily.

  "How is it?" Gao Jiancheng bent down to take a look at Mao San's bitten ankle.

  "It hurts." Mao San gritted his teeth tightly, with beads of sweat the size of soybeans appearing on his forehead.

  "Let me take a look." Gao Jiancheng carefully untied Mao San's leg bindings and removed his shoes. Two rows of teeth marks, deep enough to see the bone, were neatly printed on Mao San's ankle. The bitten area began to show black air and swelled up high.

  Gao Jiancheng picked up Mao Sanjiao's leg, tightly binding it with a tourniquet above the ankle to prevent the spread of the venom. Then Gao Jiancheng's mouth moved in to suck out the toxic blood.

  "Company Commander......" Mao San and the surrounding soldiers didn't know what to say.

  The blood that had finally been washed out returned to its normal color, Gao Jiancheng lit a match and signaled for Mao San to bear with it for a moment, then pressed the lit match against Mao San's wound.

  "Ah~~~~!" The sweat beads on Mao's head had soaked through his clothes. People standing beside him were also breaking out in cold sweats.

  He then ordered the guard to bring over a jar of salt water and some cotton wool. He carefully applied it to Mao's wound.

  "The venom of this snake is not strong, it's nothing serious, but you still need to be careful and rest. For the next few days, don't participate in any actions, just focus on recovering from your injuries. Also, instruct the cook to add some nutritious dishes for Mao San Duo." Gao Jiancheng said to the guard.

  "Company Commander, I can still move, really, don't believe me? Ahh..." Slowly struggling to get up, he didn't expect that as soon as his feet touched the ground, he fell down in pain.

  "Come over and lift Mao San onto the stretcher, put him in a safe place." Immediately, several soldiers came over to carry Mao San away to the newly built camp.

  "Where did Mao San get bitten by a black snake?" Gao Jiancheng asked the soldier beside him.

  "It's just up ahead." A soldier pointed to a clump of grass not far in front. "We were clearing weeds up ahead when Mao San suddenly shouted, we rushed over to take a look, and a snake about two meters long slithered into the thicket. Then we brought Mao San back here with his knife."

  "Let's go take a look," said Gao Jiancheng.

  Gao Jiancheng carefully observed in the grass where Mao San was bitten, occasionally picking up something from the ground.

  "Liu Jun, come over here and take a look at this thing." Gao Jiancheng placed the things he had picked out on a rock, gesturing for Liu Jun to come over and take a look.

  Liu Jun picked up a thumb-sized object, took a look at it, then lit it with a match and sniffed. "Boss, this is fabric, and it's the enemy's fabric."

  "Our clothes are made of coarse cloth with large mesh, while the enemy's fabric is fine with small mesh."

  "So this snake didn't come by itself?" Zhao Guotang said, "The snake that Dog Wa found wasn't accidental either?"

  "You should be lucky that when you came to scout that day, you didn't encounter a snake swarm, or else you would all have been done for." Gao Jiancheng looked at the grass thicket and forest in front of him. "Gao Mu, Gao Mu, you really gave me a big gift!"

  "The whole team has assembled for the meeting."

  "Attention everyone, we have encountered a great danger at the moment, and this danger is everywhere. Where we are now, there are countless snakes staring at us." As soon as Gao Jiancheng finished speaking, the soldiers below him fell into chaos, and some timid ones even started screaming.

  "Everyone be quiet, I'm going to give you a few orders now, and you must all carry them out."

  "Firstly, all personnel must wear shoes and tie their legs with puttees, wear long sleeves and trousers, wear a hat, and fasten their collars, cuffs and trouser openings tightly."

  "Secondly, the weeds and stones around the camp should be cleared away, and a deeper drainage ditch can also effectively prevent snakes and insects from entering."

  "Thirdly, grass ash must be sprinkled in the camp to drive away snakes."

  "Fourth, pay attention to keeping the camp clean, all garbage must be buried in time. Because as long as there is a little bit of oil and fat, the smell of oil will attract snakes. Also, pay attention not to burn fish bones with fire, this smell will also attract snakes."

  "Fifth, before going to sleep, you must check your tent to see if it is pressed well, and after getting up, you must also check your shoes."

  "Sixth, prohibit solo actions. Without figuring out the species of this group of snakes and thoroughly clearing them away beforehand, all personal actions are prohibited, including going to the bathroom."

  "Alright, that's all. Those who can catch snakes, step forward separately. Liu Jun, take them to clear the snakes in our campsite first, then divide the area and let the rest of the comrades dig the trenches as soon as possible and sprinkle wood ash on it. It will be dark soon."

  "Yes." Liu Jun took some people to clear out the snakes in the camp, while Gao Jiancheng stood there with the remaining people.

  "The rest of you, listen to my orders. Don't beat around the bush and stone crevices. Comrades with tobacco leaves, soak the tobacco leaves in water and sprinkle them around."

  "The commander has no water." the warrior said.

  "No water yet, let alone urine."
