The patrol members in front walked a little carelessly, keeping a position far enough away from Lin Rui and the others. In order to avoid being discovered by them, Lin Rui stretched out his hand and let the team members behind him crouch behind. Lin Rui was alone, staring at these patrol members.

"Be careful, there's a minefield on the left, follow my footsteps. Lin Rui looked down at the surroundings, the traces of being trampled by the patrol. He could see that the footprints on the right side were messy, while the left side was neater. This shows that these patrolmen are a little deliberate when patrolling, trying not to get close to the line on the left, but to the right side is more casual.

This shows that their left side must be a minefield. After Lin Rui made a judgment, the team members quickly followed.

"Shall we just follow them like this, where the hell are these guys going?" Sergey whispered.

"They're patrolling, but they don't stay on patrol all the time. So after walking around, I will definitely go back. Lin Rui said in a low voice. "Follow them and you'll be able to find a safe path to their lair. ”

"Are you saying this village isn't their camp?" said Shogan through a telescope.

"Probably not, this village should be one of the three villages they plundered. They kept this place just for cover. Their camp should be closer to the dense forests of the mines. This is because it reduces the number of workers who travel back and forth. Lin Rui said in a low voice.

"Not necessarily, they wouldn't be so caring and comfortable for these miners. Sandro whispered.

"They built the camp close to the mines, not to facilitate the laborers, but to prevent them from escaping on the way to and from the mines. And did you get to those shafts that dug down?" said Shogishi in a low voice.

"See, what's wrong?" said Sandro wondered, "Isn't it just some hole dug up?"

"Yes, those are the holes left by the mine, but most of the holes that are filled in, if you dig them, there are the bodies of laborers. Mining and burying corpses, that's what these laborers do, until one day they themselves were buried in one of the pits. That's why they built their camp next to the mines. Lin Rui said in a low voice, "I once heard from a * army in Sierra Leone. ”

"It's terrible. Sandro whispered.

"yes, very miserable. But this is Africa. Lin Rui said in a low voice, "Attention, they are starting to return." I continue to follow them, and you follow me at a distance. ”

"Understood, Boss. Sergei nodded. More than twenty minutes later, the patrol returned to the camp.

Seeing that Sergei was going to follow him, Lin Rui grabbed him, and the two hid in the grass together, Lin Rui asked in a low voice: "Wait, look there, can you get in?"

Sergei stopped, looked into the distance, shrank back, and whispered, "Sniper?"

Lin Rui nodded, the camp was in the river valley, and Lin Rui keenly noticed that there were snipers on the commanding heights of the river valley on both sides. They wore gray-yellow desert camouflage and sat in a place about the same color as the camouflage on their bodies. If you're not careful, it's really hard to spot. However, Lin Rui has a good habit of observing before acting. After combing through the surroundings with a telescope, he whispered, "Not only the commanding heights on both sides, but also on the watchtowers of the labor camp in front. If we enter from the front, the odds of being spotted are too great. ”

Shogan also lowered the binoculars, "There is heavy machine-gun fire at the entrance. At first glance, there were at least a hundred Orders of arms, as well as a similar number of Cobwa* troops. If you want to attack, it's enough to hang. ”

"Then let's wait until it gets dark and sneak around to save people?" Sergey frowned.

Lin Rui shook his head and said, "No, this area is definitely not suitable for night attacks. Too many laborers can easily cause chaos and interfere with our rescue. And even if we save people, it will be too difficult to break through at night in this environment, let alone take hostages with us. ”

"Then you have to force it. Crazy Horse nodded.

Lin Rui nodded, and without saying anything, he replaced the bow and arrow on Crazy Horse's body on his shoulder, and then said firmly to Sergei and Sandro, who were about to speak: "Don't fight, I have the final say here." Crazy Horse and I made a detour and climbed up from behind. The Shogishi is in charge of the front, and the Snake Eye and Viper Yelena are in charge of your command, once you hear my orders. Quickly clear the snipers in the watchtower and the machine gun fire in front of you. ”

"When are you going to do it?" said Shogishi as he looked at him.

"Stand by and stay still unless you listen to my orders. Lin Rui's attitude was very resolute, Sergei sighed and took out the anchor gun from his back and handed it to him: "For you, you can use it when you climb the mountain." Be careful, boss. ”

Lin Rui took it and slapped Sergei hard, "You too." Then he gestured to Crazy Horse, and the two of them turned and lowered themselves to the side of the mountain road.

Time is pressing, so they can't delay, they can't say anything, all feelings are replaced by the cruelty of war, and the only thing that remains is that little bit of victory. Only victory can be exchanged for the safety of the hostages and these brothers.

The upward road is very smooth, and very steep, and the texture is a little loose, not only is the anchor gun useless, Lin Rui also found that he couldn't borrow strength at all by relying on his hands and feet alone, so after thinking about it, he took out two daggers and climbed to the top of the mountain with difficulty little by little. I crawled cautiously for more than ten minutes, but I still didn't climb halfway.

The camp below was only three or four hundred meters from their position, but climbing up the sloping hillside was much more strenuous than running in a straight line below, and they had to climb to a certain height so that the militants below would not be noticed. Continuing to go up, he had completely lost his sense of time, and when he was close to the top of the mountain, Lin Rui stopped, looking down from the mountain, the figures of the militants were like yellow worms, and the number of those bugs seemed to be twice as many as when he came up, and he couldn't help but scold.

"What's wrong?" said Shogishi in a low voice through his headset, "The alarm seems to be going off in the camp. Have you been discovered?"

"No, we weren't spotted, they seem to be massing. Lin Rui said in a low voice, "The good news is that they are not targeting us. The bad news, though, is that they may be targeting those laborers. ”

"Indeed, I saw them come with a couple of laborers. Crazy Horse whispered, "Looks like something happened in the camp." What are we going to do?"

"Leave them alone, they may be punishing a few disobedient laborers, and preparing to make an example. This way, their attention will not be on us, and it will be easier for us to dive in. Lin Rui said in a low voice.
