Chapter 332: Lonely Rescue

675 A.D., Spring, Cairo.

Xia Xue was driving a black sedan at high speed on the road in Cairo, Egypt, and the light of the headlights kept splitting the initial fog.

A pair of bright eyes were full of anxiety.

Cairo is the capital of Egypt, straddling the Nile River, majestic and spectacular, and is the political, economic and commercial center of the entire Middle East.

According to a secret report from an anti-terrorist agent embedded in Cairo, Jack was accidentally captured by terrorists while on a secret counter-terrorism mission. The terrorists said they would trade Jack for their leader, Ahmad, who was captured by the Datang Counter-Terrorism Rangers.

However, the anti-terrorist task force secretly reported to Xia Xue that the terrorist leader Ahmad committed suicide in the secret prison of the Datang anti-terrorism base after being captured, but the news was not spread, and no one outside knew about it, and the terrorists did not know.

Now there is only one way to negotiate with the terrorists in Cairo who caught Jack, stalling for time, and trying to find a way to secretly rescue Jack, but he can't mobilize the crowd, otherwise the terrorists will find out, and Jack may be killed. It's best to send an anti-terrorist agent as good as Jack to secretly rescue him.

The secret stronghold where Jack was being held had been discovered by agents in Cairo through various means, but it was not yet decided who should be sent to rescue Jack

Jack broke away from the killer organization because of his love for Xia Xue, became the best anti-terrorist agent, and made great achievements. He is only loyal to Queen Xia Xue, and can be said to be Xia Xue's personal agent, willing to risk anything for Xia Xue. Xia Xue also admires Jack's outstanding agent talent very much, so she attaches great importance to Jack and has a special preference, and now that Jack has an accident, the most anxious is of course Xia Xue.

Now that Jack has been arrested, Xia Xue is anxious, she is not very relieved that others will rescue Jack, because Jack has an unruly personality, free and loose, and his life is not very disciplined, he likes to seduce women from good families, and his colleagues don't like him very much, plus he has made great achievements and made many great achievements, and many colleagues are also very jealous.

If you send someone else to rescue, it may be very unacceptable, and maybe you will deliberately make a mistake and kill Jack, this is a dark place of human nature, Xia Xue understands human nature well, so after thinking twice, she decided to go to Cairo to rescue Jack in person. Although he is 75 years old, his appearance, physique, etc. are only about 22 years old, so he is in the youth of human beings in the future era, Xia Xue also believes in his own ability and is confident to rescue Jack.

After secretly arriving in Cairo under a pseudonym, she obtained information about Jack's stronghold, and then took some weapons and food with her, and immediately set off.

Every day that dragged on, Jack's life was in danger.

Although the agents have always opposed letting the queen take risks, Xia Xue has made up her mind, and they have no choice but to obey. But the suggestion is that if Xia Xue goes to the stronghold for 12 hours and still has no rescue, or there is no news, it means that Xia Xue may also be in danger, then they will definitely send a large number of agents to help rescue Xia Xue. And equipped Xia Xue with a miniature radio signal transmitter, if there is an accident, just press one of the buttons, they will receive the signal, and rush to the rescue in time.

Xia Xue thought about it and agreed.

After driving on the highway for about fifty minutes, and arriving at two kilometers away from the stronghold of Jack, the milky white fog became thicker and thicker, in order not to disturb the enemy, Xia Xue parked the car in a nearby forest mixed with larch and birch, and in order to hide, decided to walk through the woods and quietly walked to the stronghold.

The cold air in the forest was pressing, and Xia Xue couldn't help but shiver.

The headache is that the dead branches in the woods break at the slightest touch, making a loud noise. Suddenly, a beast path appeared in front of me, and I don't know if it was a wild boar or a deer stepping on it. Xia Xue carefully inspected the ground.

As the name suggests, the Beast Path is, of course, the path that the beast has trodden. Beasts have their own territory, and they can use their paths to avoid making noise by carving out their own roads and making use of their paths to feed or escape from enemy beasts.

Xia Xue took a closer look and found several old wild hunting hoof prints under the fallen leaves. Strangely enough, there are no fresh feet. In this area, it goes without saying that the female deer. Even stag is forbidden to be hunted. However, wild boars are different, and local hunters can also hunt wild boars during non-hunting periods as long as they accept the application to get rid of the pest.

Therefore, the wild boars on this territory may have been hunted for a long time, but when the original leader of the mountain is gone, new wild boars often come to occupy the territory. Thinking of this, Xia Xue felt that there must be a name for it.

However, he was afraid that the sound of the branches breaking would alarm the enemy, so he had no choice but to follow the beast path.

Not only was the path of the beast sturdy, but the miscellaneous trees on the left and right sides had been broken.

Xia Xue walked forward cautiously, barely hearing a single sound of footsteps. The strap of the automatic rifle hangs around the neck, and the butt is clipped under the right armpit, ready to fire at any time.

After walking about 500 meters, Xia Xue's left foot suddenly stepped on the soft ground.

Xia Xue reflexively jumped up and rolled on the ground with her left foot, only to hear a clang, and a tiger clip bounced up from the ground, and the steel teeth of the tiger clip grazed Xia Xue's jumped left foot and snapped together. In vain fell to the ground. This tiger clip has more than a dozen sharp steel teeth. If the foot and neck are clamped, I am afraid that even the bones will be crushed.

The other end of the chain was attached to a thick cedar tree next to the animal path, and the chain was originally hidden under the dirt and fallen leaves, and was bounced up and dragged by the tiger clip. It was exposed.

Xia Xue took out a hunting knife and cut a small beech tree about three centimeters thick nearby, cut off the branches and leaves, and made a stick, and then she used this stick to poke on the ground near the tiger clip.

Less than fifty centimeters forward, the stick was caught by a second tiger clip that jumped up from the ground, and the steel teeth sank deep into the wood.

Xia Xue pulled out the stick from the tiger clip and continued to test the nearby ground, so the tiger clips buried around jumped up one after another, making a creepy metal bite sound. In this area alone, twelve were buried.

Xia Xue scolded in her heart, untied the clip on the tiger clip, compressed the spring, and pulled the clip teeth open.

One by one, I opened all the tiger clips, buried them as they were, and swept them over with beech twigs to remove the fallen leaves.

Depending on the situation, I don't know what kind of trap I will encounter if I walk the beast path again, so Xia Xue left the beast path. The small branches of the trees make a little noise when they break when they touch the body, and there is no way to do it.

After walking forward for another 300 meters, Xia Xue's left foot stepped on the ground covered by dead branches, and suddenly stepped on the air.

Trap, when the thought flashed, Xia Xue reflexively jumped, but it was already too late. Xia Xue's calf was covered by a wire sleeve.

Before Xia Xue could reach back, the iron chain hidden under the fallen leaves tightened with a loud sound, and at the same time, a bent tree in the forest on the left bounced sharply and made a fierce sound.

Xia Xue's calves were put in a wire sleeve and hung upside down. When her whole body was bounced up, although Xia Xue was wearing a high-tech bulletproof jacket and pants and a high-tech bulletproof helmet, the branches of the miscellaneous trees around her still hurt when she hit her body.

Still, her mind remained cool.

It's a jumper. A small elastic oak tree more than ten meters high is bent into the ground and connected to the wire sleeve in the trap on the ground.

When Xia Xue stepped into the set, as soon as the wire sleeve was tightened, and as soon as the mechanism that bent the little oak tree was relaxed, the bouncing oak tree lifted Xia Xue up.

Xia Xue hung headfirst down, about seven meters above the ground. The tightrope strangled her calf, and she felt a pang of pain.

Because of the weight of summer snow, the treetops of the small oak tree are still bent into a car bow, so. Xia Xue couldn't reach the trunk if she wanted to grab it with her hands.

Xia Xue was not intimidated by the danger in front of her. She bent over and straightened her upper body, grasping the wire rope at the top end of the wire sleeve with both hands. At this time, the automatic rifle and three strips of zigzali cartridges on the back looked particularly heavy.

The steel wire of the knot part of the set passes through an iron ring, a knot is tied on the head, and heated with a blowtorch, even the bear can not pull off with all his strength, but the steel wire through the iron ring can move up and down, can be tightened or relaxed, and now due to Xia Xue's own weight, the wire sleeve is tightened more and more.

Xia Xue grabbed the wire rope with both hands and pulled up with force. In this way, the weight of the sleeve that is wrapped around the left leg is transferred to the hands.

Xia Xue let go of the wire sleeve, pulled out her left leg, grabbed the wire rope and swung it to the oak tree, and sat down on a thick branch.

Roll up your left pant leg and check the injury to see if it doesn't matter.

Thanks to the high-tech body armor, otherwise if it were ordinary clothes and pants, it is estimated that they would have been torn and their calves would have been injured.

Xia Xue rubbed the sore place for a while, relieving the pain a little. Then stand on the fork of the tree and observe the woods.

The trees are black and oppressive, and the protruding mountain beams block it, so you can't see the buildings. Xia Xue had no choice but to slide down from the oak tree, cut a small tree, cut it into a wooden stick with a diameter of three centimeters, and used this stick to explore the ground while walking forward.

After walking for more than ten minutes, I climbed a hill, and a terrace of more than 100,000 square meters with sparse trees was displayed in front of me. In the middle of the terrace, there is a large concrete three-story building, surrounded by a meadow of several thousand square meters.

It must have been the secret stronghold of the terrorists where Jack was being held. All the rooms were unlit and the windows were black. There is a large garage in front of the house with metal roller shutters lowered.

Summer Snow crouched at the edge of the woods, waiting for the moon to hide in the clouds again. To get close to the building, it was necessary to cross the open forest and the meadows, and to do so in the moonlight, no doubt by the enemy looking out from the black-lit building.

The bright moon shone in the sky, and there were no clouds to cover it for a long time.

Finally a cloud approached the moon.

As soon as the moon entered the clouds, Xia Xue immediately went into action. She lay on the ground, holding an automatic rifle, and using her elbows and knees, like a snake, silently crawling through the open forest.

Crawling out of the sparse forest, there is an open meadow in front of you. To infiltrate the three-story concrete building, one had to walk through the meadow.

Xia Xue looked up at the night sky, mentally calculating the speed at which the clouds would move and the creeping speed needed to reach the building.

Depending on the situation, it was possible to reach the house before the clouds passed and the moon returned, and Xia Xue continued to crawl forward.

The grass was so cold that it seemed to be about to frost. Xia Xue stopped from time to time and peeked at the movements around her.

When Xia Xue climbed to the large garage in front of the building, the moon came out of the clouds, and he quickly hid in the shadow of the garage.

According to the map provided by agents in Cairo, there is a sewer near the building, which leads into the building.

Xia Xue followed the direction marked on the map, searched for a while, and finally found a sewer, which was very dark and smelly.

Although the helmet is bulletproof, it is not sealed, the smell cannot be stopped, there is no way, in order to save Jack, Xia Xue, who likes to be clean, took a deep breath and got into the stinky sewer.
