Chapter 237: Big Fish
Since we can't accurately judge whether this armed man who claims to be a "ranger" is a ranger or not, we don't dare to directly reveal our true identity to him, as for our guns, weapons and combat clothing exposed, what we can do is to find a reason to try our best to cover it up, and the most reason we say is that we are mercenaries, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, we will inevitably choose to use local combat clothing and weapons and equipment, Both to facilitate replenishment and to reduce our own casualties to a certain extent.
Speaking of mercenaries, in fact, it is also a special profession, generally speaking, a person or a group of armed men who go to war for the purpose of money, groups and individuals who participate in an armed conflict for profit. In fact, these mercenaries who participated in the war, the reason why they chose to participate in the war was very simple, there was only one purpose, that is, they were working for money, as long as the other party's bid was high enough, he could be hired by anyone.
However, as mercenaries, they are more of a qualified squad with independent combat capabilities, they have no support, no logistics, even if there is a mercenary company behind the mercenary team of each mission, but, in every mission, unless necessary, otherwise they can only fight alone, even if they all die in the end, they will not get any honor, can get a pension, except for a few large mercenary companies, others, it is really rare to see, like a mercenary in a straggler situation, Not to mention, perhaps, compared to the killers, the only difference is that they are better at fighting on the battlefield, however, they all have the same thing in common, they have no faith, they all sell their lives for money, but they always value credibility very seriously.
Therefore, we have always been very cautious when we walked with this so-called "ranger", after all, if we are really mercenaries, we must not have a life to earn money, and we must not have a life to spend money.
"Hey, how long will it take!" After we had been walking for about half an hour, a member of the reconnaissance team took two steps forward, patted the so-called "ranger" on the shoulder, and said in a tone that was not very good.
"Uh...... That one...... It's fast, it's going to be out, and if you go a little further ahead, you'll basically be near the border. The so-called "ranger" was obviously stunned by the sudden slap on the shoulder by the member of the reconnaissance team, and hurriedly replied to the member of the reconnaissance team with a smile.
"How far away can we get out of this subterranean magnetic field?" Seeing that the so-called "ranger" stopped to answer our questions, another team member continued to ask the so-called "ranger" while looking at the compass in his hand.
"Magnetic field...... I don't know much about the magnetic field, but ...... But...... Oh, yes! There's no signal from mobile phones or radios in this area anyway. The so-called "ranger" first muttered to himself, and then, as if suddenly he had come to his senses, replied to us.
Our so-called "mercenaries" glanced at each other, made eye contact, and nodded to each other.
"You'd better not play tricks, although no one pays for your life, but, as mercenaries, we are the most credibility of the most, if we meet someone who doesn't talk about credibility, we occasionally do one or two orders for free, it's not impossible." The members of the command team drew their daggers and scraped the blades with their thumbs, and said without looking at the so-called "ranger", and the meaning of the threat was self-evident in his words. As he spoke, the whole body of the member of the command team was constantly exuding a chilling killing intent, and with his movements and tone, no matter how ordinary people felt it, it could make him immediately feel fear in his heart. However, I found that when the so-called "ranger" saw and heard the movements and words of the members of the command team, he not only felt fear, but also had some other meanings in his eyes, but I couldn't tell what it was.
It wasn't just me who discovered this problem, but several other team members also found out, but everyone still made eye contact, and no one spoke.
"No, no, no." When the so-called "ranger" heard this, he hurriedly said three times in a row, as if he was packing tickets.
"Alright, lead the way! Just take us out and I'll keep you safe! Hearing the words of the so-called "ranger", the members of the command team simply stopped talking nonsense with him, inserted the dagger back, and said to the so-called "ranger" with disdain.
"Okay, you guys follow up, the road ahead is more difficult, watch your step." The so-called "ranger" immediately agreed, and reminded us with concern, which made us feel even more weird.
After walking ahead for about ten minutes, I didn't see the difficult road as the so-called "ranger" said, but walked into a relatively open forest.
When we walked into the forest, I carefully observed the surroundings, obviously, there have been traces of many people's activities, some of the surrounding weeds have also stepped down, until now there is no slight recovery, a few big trees under the soil is very solid, obviously people have been sitting, and, looking at the surrounding traces, there should be someone resting here, but, when resting, everyone is very casual, and there is no orderly method to arrange, judging from this, There are only two kinds of people who have rested here, one is the surrounding mountain people, and the other is foreign militants, but there is one thing, no matter which one of them, the number of people who are here to rest is not a minority.
"Have you been here before?" I asked the so-called "ranger".
"I've been here, otherwise how could I have taken you this way." The so-called "ranger" continued to walk forward, answering my questions without looking back, so I couldn't see his facial expression.
"Is this road usually walked?" As soon as I finished asking my question, another member of the team immediately asked for it.
"Usual...... Usually...... Should...... There should still be some, but you can rest assured, there are not many people who know this road, and it is rare that someone will take it. When the so-called "ranger" heard this, he stammered for a long time as if he was thinking about something, and then replied to us.
Hearing the words of the so-called "ranger", we immediately understood in our hearts that this guy did not have any good intentions.
"There's a signal!" One of the members of the command team, who had been carrying the radio on his back, suddenly shouted at us as if he was surprised.
"Got a signal? Are you sure? Another member of the command team was also overjoyed and asked again.
"Well, there is a signal, but it's not very stable, and it's basically certain that we're on the edge of the underground magnetic field right now." The member of the command team who was carrying the radio on his back nodded his head and listened to the bands coming from the radio and said to us.
Just when we all seemed a little happy, bad news followed.
One of the team members stopped walking and looked at us nervously, "I feel like I've stepped on a landmine." "Actually, there is no need for him to say, just by looking at his expression, we can actually guess seven or eight points, just like when we first entered the border jungle, at that time, the expression of the team member stepping on the thunder was like this.
One of the team members stepped on a mine, and the attention of the rest of our team members was drawn to it, and the result was that the so-called "ranger" was relaxed and guarded. In fact, this mine belongs to the kind of very simple loose mine, and it is not a new type of mine, it seems that it is also a product of the turn of the last century, the structure is simple, the lethality is not large, but it should not be underestimated.
The disadvantage of the simple construction is that it is easy to eliminate, as long as you do not lift your foot, cut the firing pin or plug in the insurance, it can generally be effectively eliminated, of course, in modern warfare fools will continue to use this kind of mine.
After a while, the mines were cleared, but, just when we were relieved, the so-called "ranger", who was hiding behind a tree while we were clearing mines, is now gone, quietly slipping away!
"Pay attention to the footprints he left behind, and follow his footprints!" The so-called "ranger" escaped, and it is useless for us to complain now, but his escape route has opened up a safe passage for us.
After five or six minutes of walking in the footsteps of the so-called "ranger", the compass in our hands finally returned to normal.
"Judging from the direction this guy is running, he is basically running in the direction of the border line." The "Night Vulture" spread out a map, then pointed to it and said, "Actually, that guy took us on a diagonal line in the opposite direction, and we are now farther away from the border." ”
Looking at the situation in front of them, everyone did not show great surprise, because we all had already guessed that there was a problem with the so-called "ranger", but we couldn't find any evidence for the time being, but now it seems that our previous guess was not wrong.
The members of the command team looked at the map and gestured with their hands, and after a while, they said: "There is a village not far from here, if nothing else, the so-called 'forest ranger' just now is also a scout, and he is heading for this village!" ”
"Report to Command, just say we may have found a big fish, ask for instructions!"
