There are many places in the world that have an indescribable sense of powerlessness due to their unique geographical environment, and "swamp" is one of them. When people think of swamps, they often think of "escape" rather than "survival", and it's hard to imagine anyone living in a swamp all year round, with danger and mud.

A swamp is a dangerous environment, and the swampy terrain is full of dangerous quagmire, and if you are not careful, you will never recover. Therefore, many people think that this is a terrible place, a place where living things die, and even a place where dead creatures live. But in fact, swamps have their unique and important place in the world's ecosystem.

True wilderness survival masters understand the benefits of the swamp. There is no shortage of water and food, and it is quiet and undisturbed. Apart from crocodiles and insects, you don't have to worry about anything else.

When Lin Rui led people into this swamp, he was still infected by the scene here.

The wildness and suspense of African swamps are everywhere, with misty waters and meadows, tangled trees and vines, and the weather never seems to be clear, and everyone can smell the smell of moss and the coolness of a cloudy day. There are impenetrable dense forests, unbreakable fog, and rotten wood slanting into the water.

Due to the damp, cold and gloomy all year round, the eyes are full of ferns growing wantonly, and there are large areas of trees that cannot be seen, and the extremely desolate and oppressive atmosphere makes people see no end.

", I hate it. Sergei whispered.

"Shut up, Russians, you're going to kill us. Sandro whispered. "I hope there won't be crocodiles here, my fear of this thing is indescribable. He said as he propped the boat forward with a long wooden pole.

Their boat was found by Crazy Horse and Biscuit, and the small wooden boat used by the locals felt slightly larger than the canoe. The local blacks used such boats to fish in the water. It's just that this ship is a little too small for Lin Rui and the others.

They had to travel separately, four of these small boats, through this strange swamp. Lin Rui looked at the electronic map while pressing the headphones and whispered, "Pay attention, this is in action, not the time to joke." Observe your surroundings and don't make any noise. We are approaching an area where security has not yet been confirmed. ”

It's quite cool in the primeval jungle, but the vegetation on the ground can block their path. In addition, the fog in the woods is only about 5o meters away, so it is easy to get lost, and it is difficult to see people who are lost in the jungle from the air. They must be vigilant at all times.

Crazy Horse and Snakeeye are the most experienced team members in swampy terrain. So Crazy Horse and Snake Eyes were at the front of the group, quietly pushing the boat forward with the help of a wooden pole. After a short stroke forward, Crazy Horse suddenly raised his hand and made a gesture. The rest of the team stopped what they were doing and crouched low on the boat, weapons in hand.

Crazy Horse's gesture signaled for him to appear, and only after making sure he was safe did he paddle and stop at a vine.

Lin Rui rowed up the boat from behind and said in a low voice, "What's the matter?"

"There was a little suspicious trace. Crazy Horse whispered. "Look here. He whispered, pointing to a thick vine.

"It's artificially chopped off. Lin Rui said in a low voice.

Crazy Horse nodded, "This small shrub and various creeping plants can generally grow about 2 to 3 meters tall every year, and they can quickly block the road. So the journey through the swamp will be slow and difficult, often with the help of broad-edged knives or horse-drawn machetes. Despite the effort, visibility may be only a few meters. Many jungle plants have thorns, and dense jungles can make you impassable or even cornered.

Someone had apparently been here to see the blade of the vine being cut down. This was by no means the result of the machetes used by the locals, but by other blades. Because the locals' machetes are very sharp, they are suitable for dealing with this kind of vine, and they also have a certain weight in themselves, and when they are swung, such vines will be easily cut off. But the knife edge on this vine is not so clean. ”

"Definitely. Lin Rui took a closer look and frowned, "This looks like a cutting method, the knife used is very sharp, but the weight is not large." That's why such an incision is made. And it doesn't look like it's about opening the way. But what does that mean?"

"First, it shows that it was not done by the local villagers. Crazy Horse whispered, "Second, these people are not trying to open the way. ”

"Instead of opening the way, you cut down vines with a knife. Lin Rui nodded, "I understand, these vines are used to shade their camp. Add a layer of greenery to the camouflage net for concealment. So they don't use machetes, so that the branches and leaves above are not shaken off too much. Loss of masking effect. ”

Crazy Horse nodded, and whispered, "Normally, they don't pick plants around the camp. So at least it's a long way from their camp, but it's not too far. ”

Lin Rui said in a low voice, "Everyone keep up, but slow down." Attention, we are close to the goal. Be prepared to fight at any time. ”

The team members all nodded and continued to glide forward with their boat. They walk slower and more carefully. In order to avoid making a sound, the boat is also very careful to avoid the sound of attacking the water.

Half an hour later, Crazy Horse's boat stopped, he observed it with a telescope, slowly retreated again, and made a gesture to Lin Rui.

Lin Rui knew that he had already appeared, and he also leaned forward with the boat, stopped under a tree, and took out a telescope to peek ahead.

"A makeshift camp built on the water. Lin Rui said in a low voice, "One big platform, two small boats." High up at ten o'clock there is a treehouse with a guard post. The gunner is on top of it and can see everything around him. ”

"The camp on the platform has three simple buildings, and in terms of the number of personnel, there should be a dozen people at most. Shogishi also said in a low voice.

"Great, let's do it, shall we?" Sandro was eager to try.

Lin Rui shook his head, "No, I always feel that it won't be so simple." Until we have figured out the defensive vigilance of the other side, we better not move around. ”

Shogishi nodded, "I agree, and if we go over now, we will easily be seen by the people in the treehouse." If we rush over, what awaits us will be a rain of bullets. We have to find a way to distract them. Or get rid of the guard post on the treehouse first. ”
