I've been racking my head for the past couple of hours trying to figure out how to perform a "Group scan" in C++ to find the address for the health in a game and haven't been able to find anything. The group scan command I have found that works 100% of the time on cheat engine is:
4:1114112000 4:0 4:1878479224 4:0 4:316250192

I have found a ton of "copy paste" AoB "tutorials" but they don't really fit what I am trying to do since AOB is different from group scanning, other than AoB tutorials being 5+ years old and not being applicable nowadays.

This leads me to the question, how can I perform a group scan to find the address of the first "1114112000" inside my group scan command so I can later modify it with WriteProcessMemory?

That groupscan is 5 contiguous integer literals. Just turn it into an aob and search for that:
00 00 68 42 00 00 00 00 78 51 F7 6F 00 00 00 00 50 98 D9 12
