It's early summer, and the vegetation on the mountains and at the water's edge is so lush that even the oncoming wind blowing across the river doesn't bring a hint of coolness. Lin Rui and the others walked stealthily along the river, walking all the way down according to the predetermined coordinates, the grass by the river is yes, they rarely lose their concealment, and the Crazy Horse who led the way in front also fulfilled the duty of an excellent pioneer. At the slightest abnormality, he would raise his hand to signal the team members to avoid the aquatic plants on the riverbank.

They rowed for two hours in one go, Lin Rui led the team just ashore, walked into a bush of rocks to hide, and the voice of Crazy Horse came from the earphones: "Boss, come here!"

"You guys put away the inflatable boat and hide it. Remember the coordinates in case you need them!" Lin Rui lowered his head and admonished, and after holding a telescope from behind the rocks to observe, he walked towards the direction where Crazy Horse was hiding with his gun.

Crazy Horse heard the footsteps and raised his hand in the grass, and Lin Rui, who was squinting his eyes and looking around for him, hurriedly bent down and ran over.

"Boss, something is wrong," said Crazy Horse, pointing to a small valley in front of him, "If we want to take a detour to the north, that's the way to go." If those extremist militants set up an ambush there, we would have been wiped out! From what I know of them, they are used to using this method. ”

"Actuary, you inform Sandro to guard the rear and let the chief come with you!" Lin Rui observed through the telescope, this valley was no more than twenty or thirty meters wide, and it was not shown on their previous map, Lin Rui and the others ignored this problem. He took the map and looked through, this canyon is a typical pass, if you need to walk at least dozens of kilometers more to detour, it is not necessarily easy to walk.

Lin Rui glanced at the time, pressed the earphone and asked in a low voice, "Snake Eyes, the situation of reconnaissance ahead!"

"Normal, clear vision! No obvious target was found. Snakeeye whispered, "But if there are sentinels, they should be further inside." Out of my sight. As soon as I get a little closer, they come into my line of sight, and I can pull them out as fast as I can. ”

"Don't act rashly yet, stand by in place. Lin Rui said in a low voice.

The shore came up with a silent movement of chieftains and sausages. Lin Rui said softly: "There is a dangerous pass ahead, and Crazy Horse suspects that there are extremist militants stationed there. ”

Shogishi observed for a moment and nodded, "His suspicions are very reasonable. It is better to send two good marksmen, stealthily moving to the heights on both sides, and conducting a visual search on both sides of the canyon on either side of me. Our rear is safe, as long as two people are left behind the guard to prevent being targeted. If someone else organizes a forced assault, there should be no problem. In the event of an exchange of fire, it is better not to fall in love, break through the line as soon as possible, and disengage and retreat to the high ground behind them. ”

"No, then our position will be exposed. Lin Rui shook his head and said, "We haven't arrived at Ata Village yet, and if we are exposed here, it will be very disadvantageous." Because it will make the direction of our goal very clear. Even the most stupid militants are able to tell from our route that our final destination is the village of Aita. Whether those sentries send a police alert or not, we will be exposed. ”

Yelena's voice came from inside the headphones, "I have found that the target is more than a kilometer." There were at least a dozen people, maybe more, like a small camp in the middle of the valley. Do you attack?" She has a better angle than Snake Eyes, so she finds her target earlier than Snake Eyes.

"No, they haven't spotted us yet, so don't alarm them just yet. Lin Rui said in a low voice.

"Boss, if we get closer, there's still a chance to deal with them. Sergei whispered.

"But we're not here for them, we're not targeting them, we're targeting the chemical weapons investigation and forensics team. Lin Rui shook his head and said, "Even if we can deal with them without alarming the other militants, we can buy half a day at most." They are clearly a perimeter guard.

If we take them out, then their communication with other militants will be interrupted. Other militants will soon find out that something is wrong with them and will immediately guess that there is an attack here. We are still a long way from our destination, and during this time they will either send a team to search the area, or they will strengthen the defense of the village of Aita, and maybe even divert the target we need to rescue. ”

"But if we don't get rid of them, we'll have to keep going east. This will allow us to walk dozens of kilometers more mountain roads, and it will be even more unpredictable. Who knows if they have similar deployments elsewhere?" said Crazy Horse with a frown.

"Or we bypass them, but not completely. We only had to avoid the warning at the entrance to the valley, but instead of going around on the east side, we climbed to the top of the hill on the west side, climbed over it, and then followed the hillside, and we could also reach the outskirts of the village of Aita before night. Shogan groaned.

"But the western slope is not necessarily defenseless. Sergei whispered.

"No, because it's steep. And such a height also makes it lose the significance of a guard post. Shogishi analyzed.

Lin Rui looked at the map and nodded, "I agree with you, then we will climb over from the west side and try to complete it without alarming any alert." I opened the way with Crazy Horse, and the others followed. Be careful not to alarm enemy guard posts. ”

"Understood?" the O2 team members dispersed, and Lin Rui beckoned to Crazy Horse: "Let's go!"

The two of them work together. Lin Rui held up the binoculars to find a climbing point, and Crazy Horse took out the pneumatic anchor gun and tied the nylon rope to the anchor claw in a "figure 8" knot.

The western side of the mountain is steep, and it is summer, and although the trees are luxuriant, most of them are relatively thin and cannot be used as climbing points, and there are a few trees in the distance that look like large canopies, but the trunks are not visible by the trees in the distance. Lin Rui held the telescope and searched for a long time, there was only a rocky rock that looked stable on the opposite side to use, and he pointed in the direction of the rock: "There!"

Crazy Horse held up his binoculars and looked at it and said, "The diameter is too large to wrap around the hook." The strength of the rocks in the mountain may not be able to shoot the anchor gun in, and it may be dangerous to pass through it reluctantly!"

"Let's try it!" Lin Rui got up and made a gesture to Crazy Horse.

Crazy Horse nodded, grabbed the anchor gun, and used the simple sight on the anchor gun to make a rough aim, and shot up the hill with a "whoosh". The anchor claw landed on the rock with a rope, and the sparks splashed everywhere, and the alloy anchor claw did not embed, but jumped twice and jumped behind the rock and disappeared. Crazy Horse tugged the rope, turned his head and said, "It's not embedded, but it's caught the rock, and the force should be about the same!"
