At Sayer's command, several squads of soldiers responded and entered the woods.
The military of Myanmar has a rather unique structure; a squad consists of seven men. These few squads totaled over thirty men, and under the leadership of an officer, they immediately plunged into the mountain forest.
The officer was clearly experienced in jungle tracking. As soon as he entered the forest, he found traces of the soldiers who had gone in before.
He immediately followed the trail, with the squads behind him close on his heels.
After covering some distance, he abruptly waved his hand. "Hold up. Something's wrong ahead."
Sure enough, there was a body under a tree up ahead.
Two soldiers immediately went to retrieve the body. The grim looks on their faces told the story, and once they brought the corpse over, the officer understood why.
Half of the corpse's head had been smashed in. Judging by the wound, it looked like the work of some beast's claws.
