In the deep winter of 1991, in the primeval forest of world outside is in turmoil, with big things happening every day, and it seems not peaceful at all.
However, the hustle and bustle of the outside world has no impact on the primeval forest at all, simply because it is almost completely disconnected from the outside world.
Snowflakes began to fall from the sky. The snow, which had just stopped for a short while, began to fall again.
"This damn weather is really too cold. It's really not easy to come here to hunt."
Chen Ce sat on the snow sled and exhaled a breath of hot air, but he was still very cold.
Through the lenses, he was paying attention to the movements in the forest ahead. As long as there were animals passing by, they would not escape his eyes.
Chen Ce's purpose of coming to Siberia in the deep winter was very simple, which was to experience hibernation, winter hunting, hibernation, etc., which were the lives that he could not experience in Beijing.
For a child who is only twelve years old, he must be full of curiosity and thirst for knowledge about the outside world. He finds it novel and wants to experience such a scene.
In fact, the winter here in Siberia is silent and quiet, like a dead world.
Apart from the howling wind, the temperature of minus 30 to 40 degrees Celsius, and the endless snow-covered land, there was nothing else.
"Haha, it's really hard to hunt Siberian tigers in this season, but there's still a good chance of hunting some animals like reindeer and white foxes."
Zhang Keshi smiled and said when he heard this.
He was very familiar with Siberia, as he had been on missions here for more than eight years. It could be said that he knew many places in Siberia like the back of his hand.
As a retired member of the special forces ace team, he is the ace among aces.
Logically speaking, with his status, he should not have to worry about money once he retires.
However, tomorrow and the accident are really hard to describe.
Zhang Keshi was extremely unlucky. Not long after joining the ace team, he encountered the accident that his wife was diagnosed with cancer. This accident almost made him collapse.
In order to earn money to treat his wife's illness, he really went crazy for a year or two, and took on tasks very desperately.
Three years later, his wife's condition was finally under control and no longer developed in a worse direction.
Two years later, his wife's health finally improved completely and there was no relapse.
Two years later, no one knew what his wife was thinking. Maybe she felt that she had taken good care of her health, but also felt guilty for not giving him more children. In addition, according to family planning, she proposed to give him another son.
It would have been better if she hadn’t given birth. After she became pregnant, his wife got into trouble again, this time with breast cancer.
To his wife, it was as if the cancer was living in her body, and it would burst out from time to time, which was particularly scary.
He finally escaped danger again, but after his son was born, another incident happened when he was two years old. His son was abducted.
He retired early for this matter.
He went alone, traveled all over the sky and underworld, spent three years, overthrowing one dark organization after another, and chasing after one clue after another.
As a result, money was spent like water, and the originally generous savings gradually shrank.
Within three years, his wife became pregnant again and gave birth to another son.
This time, his wife's life was really hanging by a thread, and she almost died.
However, Zhang Keshi did not give up and continued to search for his eldest son. It was not until the fifth year, when his son was seven years old, that he finally found his son.
However, by this time, all the money in his pocket was gone.
Even so, he was happy with it.
After finding his son, he relied on the help from his former comrades and his own ability to find a job and barely make a living and pay off his debts.
Fate struck him again when his eldest son got leukemia and needed money.
This time, he had no choice but to compromise with fate, return to the workplace and be hired again.
So he became the captain of Chen Ce's bodyguard team.
If it were in the past, Master Zhang Ke's salary would have been very high, and he would have received "dividends" every time he completed a mission.
But it’s different now. His salary is not very high and he has not received any dividends.
But at the same time, he is old, and his current mission is just to protect Chen Ce.
Chen Ce would at most go hunting or come to places like Siberia, so this mission was very simple and had a relatively high safety factor, so it was normal that the salary was a little lower.
Even though the salary is low, it is still very high compared to the salaries of many people in the country.
"What do you want those reindeer for?"
Chen Ce rolled his eyes and didn't even bother to complain about these things.
There is indeed a lot of reindeer meat, and for many local herders, it is indeed a very good source of meat for the winter.
However, for Chen Ce, this is not a good thing.
Because he would rather hunt Siberian tigers, especially the Siberian tiger king that weighs more than 500 kilograms. This is his goal.
Hearing him mention the Siberian Tiger King again, Zhang Keshi immediately said:
"It's very hard to come across a Siberian tiger like the one you're talking about. I've been here for eight years and have encountered tigers fifteen times in total, but each time I encountered a tiger that weighed around 200 kilograms. There were very few that weighed close to 250 kilograms."
"In the past few years, more Siberian tigers have been hunted and there are many records of them being sold. The largest one weighed only 242 kilograms, so it is really hard to find such a tiger king."
The Siberian tiger, also known as the Amur tiger, is the largest carnivorous cat species in the world.
However, even the Siberian tiger generally weighs between 180 and 220 kilograms. To be honest, it is very rare to see a tiger king weighing 250 kilograms or more.
Because this type of Siberian tiger can almost be said to be a mutated Siberian tiger.
"It's because it's difficult that I came to this forest to look for it. If it were too easy, I wouldn't be happy." Chen Ce snorted.
Upon hearing this, Zhang Keshi and the others smiled and said nothing more.
Chen Ce is very smart and has a strong ability to make money, so he is qualified to say this.
Bang!
At this moment, a loud noise was heard from the mountain on the other side. Although it was not as loud when it reached Chen Ce and the others, it was still very clear.
There is movement!
Bodyguards including Dong Qingfeng, Wang Haiyang and Wu Shouyang immediately became alert, and Master Zhang Ke immediately asked Chen Ce to squat down and not expose his body.
"Old Dong, Old Wang, you go to the front to check the situation first, and the others should be alert." Zhang Ke made arrangements immediately, and Dong Qingfeng and Wang Haiyang immediately took action. Time passed by minute by minute, and the news that Dong Qingfeng and his team had discovered was quickly transmitted back.
In the next valley, some people are fleeing and being chased. It should be a fight between the KGB and the CIA.
How could such a thing happen in such a deserted place?
Chen Ce instantly became interested and said to Zhang Keshi next to him: "Uncle Zhang, can you catch them? I want to see if they have any secret information or something."
The latter heard this and shook his head, "No, your safety is the most important thing. You'd better not provoke these people. Besides, this is their territory. None of us can tell how many people they have. Let's retreat first."
"Uncle Zhang, I'll pay more. Is it okay to pay more?"
"Boss, this is absolutely not allowed. Have you forgotten what your grandfather said?"
Zhang Keshi is not an ordinary team leader. With his previous resume, he can indeed gain trust and become Chen Ce's bodyguard.
However, before taking up the post of bodyguard team leader, Zhang Keshi had been instructed by Chen Guohua.
Chen Guohua knew his eldest grandson's temperament very well. This little guy was definitely not a law-abiding person, especially after he made money in Siberia, his inner pride would be magnified.
Therefore, at this time, someone must keep him under control.
Otherwise, once Chen Ce lets himself go, it would be very easy for something to go wrong.
Especially in Siberia, Chen Guohua was not sure whether there was anything special about this place.
You know, Moscow once had heavy troops concentrated in the Siberian region in the Far East.
Especially when Brezhnev was still in the Kremlin, who knows what kind of forces he placed in the Siberian forests?
Since you are not aware of these situations, it is not shameful to retreat for safety reasons when encountering an unexpected situation.
Seeing that Zhang Keshi was so conservative, Chen Ce felt depressed. He wanted to continue persuading him, but it was too late.
Because of the exclamations of Dong Qingfeng and Wang Haiyang coming from the earphones, more and more KGB agents appeared.
Based on this situation, Zhang Keshi made a prompt decision and evacuated immediately.
Their hunting team was not large, with a total number of less than twenty people.
Although Zhang Keshi is experienced and several of his men are good with firearms, they are fighting away from home and facing elite forces like the KGB, and the other side has a large number of people.
Even if the other party will not pay more attention to Zhang Keshi and his team, they cannot be underestimated, so it is better to evacuate first to avoid misunderstandings from the KGB.
However, not long after Zhang Keshi and his companions left, Yuris, Ridley and Pabel had already arrived at the place where they were just now.
"Someone has been here before, and they must have just left. Let's go and catch up."
Yuris and the other two were very surprised. They didn't expect to meet a hunting team in such a deserted and uninhabited area.
This also means that they are not destined to die.
Behind them were numerous KGB agents, who were following closely behind them, forcing Ridley, Pabel, and Yuris not to stop for even a moment.
Bang bang bang!
Just as Yuris and his two companions were moving forward, trying to catch up with Chen Ce and his group, gunshots were suddenly heard from the left, just three shots.
Of the three bullets, one hit Ridley, and the other two missed.
Even so, Dong Qingfeng and Wang Haiyang retreated immediately and had no intention of getting entangled with Yuris and the others.
As a result, Juris and Pavel simply abandoned Ridley and fled first.
Faced with such a situation, Ridley was so angry that he started cursing.
Being abandoned also means the coming of death.
In the Siberian primeval forest in the cold winter, even if there were no KGB pursuers, he would have been shot and injured. He would not have received medical treatment in a short period of time and would not be far from death.
However, Ridley is not an ordinary person. He is a CIA agent and has undergone a lot of special training.
In today's extreme environment, we need to stay calm and find ways to escape.
Regardless of what Ridley did, Yuris and Pavel, with their absolute advantage, quickly approached Chen Ce and the others.
When Zhang Keshi and his men saw the situation behind them, they knew they could not escape, so they asked Wang Haiyang, Dong Qingfeng and Wu Shouyang to stay behind to snipe Yuris and the other two.
It is only necessary to destroy the snowmobiles of Yuris and the other two, there is no need to kill them.
As a result, this time Dong Qingfeng and the other three were surprisingly brave and shot the man in the head with just two shots.
Juris and Pavel never understood until their death why they died so suddenly.
A few minutes later, the KGB looked at the bodies of Ridley, Yuris, and Pabel, remained silent for a while, and then decided to continue the pursuit.
There are actually outsiders in this primeval forest of Siberia?
This is their territory, so they definitely cannot let Chen Ce and his group escape.
"Sir, we only have thirty people, and the other side may have more than twenty. Should we send more people? Otherwise, given their brutality, we are afraid..."
Hearing his subordinate's proposal, Ftolyak frowned and said:
"You are the KGB. Can't thirty of you beat twenty of them? Forget about using your numbers to bully the few. Even if you are outnumbered, are you sure to lose? You are afraid of them before you even start the mission. You should quit the KGB when you go back. You are not welcome here."
After that, Ftolyak stopped talking and asked them to take action immediately.
Half an hour later, the gunfight officially began on a river in a small basin.
It was the first time for Chen Ce to experience such a battle scene. He was only excited and not nervous at all.
On the contrary, Master Zhang Ke was in a calm state, because when he knew that there were pursuers behind him, he knew it would be difficult to escape.
After all, they have a large number of people, and the KGB is notoriously difficult to deal with. It will be difficult to leave this primeval forest before their self-confidence is destroyed.
It can only be said that they went too deep into this place, or it can be said that Chen Ce was too obsessed with the 500-pound Siberian tiger, which led to the current accident.
However, things have already happened, and there is no use complaining or regretting. Just do it.
Fierce gunfire broke the tranquility of the forest.
But there are no small animals nearby, probably because they are hibernating.
The entire gunfight did not last long, and it was over in less than five minutes, but the result was unexpected. (End of this chapter)
