Chapter 24 [Don't Underestimate Any Trap]
Temporary Operational Command.
Sheriff Will spread out a map of the town, traced a route of Rambo's escape with a pen and ink, and said: "This is where Rambo escaped up the mountain, and my subordinates and I found a kerosene lamp in the abandoned lumber yard in the Wells Mountains that still emitted residual heat, and then followed the footprints left by Rambo all the way to the depths of the jungle." ”
Speaking of which, Sheriff Will looked at his watch, it was already past nine o'clock in the morning, and he added, "We stepped on the trap set by Rambo around 5 o'clock in the morning. ”
"How can you run so far in the mountains in one night?" Bliss looked at the route on the map and couldn't help but say in surprise: "It seems that this fugitive is about to run out of the town." ”
"Almost, I'm almost out of town this morning."
Sheriff Will has been working in the town for more than ten years, so he naturally knows how big the town is, and after a night of running and a morning, this Rambo, who once made a name for himself in the Vietnam War, must have already run out of the town.
"Captain Sam, where do you think the Ram will go? Do you want to find a no-man's land to descend from the mountains to a nearby town, or run further down this primeval forest and come out again? Bliss looked up at Rambo's former boss, Sam.
Captain Sam squinted slightly and said: "According to what I know about Rambo, he will definitely not come out directly at this outlet, you just said that you have sent several helicopters to search in the mountains, I think Rambo must have seen these helicopters, and you must be able to guess that you sent a large number of people to plan to arrest him, then there must be people from the state police in nearby towns." ”
"You mean to say that Lanbo continues to flee along the mountains?"
If Rambo stays in the mountains and doesn't come out, facing the dense primeval forest, and the other party is a soldier who is proficient in jungle warfare, I'm afraid that the more than 30 people sent will not be enough at all.
Thinking of this possibility, Bliss frowned, "Captain Sam, as Rambo's former boss, I think you should be very clear about the escape route that Rambo might implement, right?" ”
Hearing this, Captain Sam looked at Bliss, and then caught a glimpse of Sheriff Will staring at him all the time, knowing that if he didn't say something useful, the two of them would not stop, and couldn't help but open their mouths and said: "I dare not say absolutely, but if I were Rambo, I would definitely go all the way south along this mountain range, and if necessary, in order to avoid the enemy pursuing me, I would consider staying on the mountain for a few months to get rid of the enemy." ”
"Stay in the mountains for a few months!"
Sheriff Will's eyes widened, if Rambo really escaped in the mountains for a few months, I'm afraid this case would be closed sooner or later!
"Unlikely!" Bliss said with a little disbelief: "If a person wants to live in the primeval forest, food and water are indispensable, it is winter, most of the animals in the mountains are in a state of hibernation, without food, how can Rambo live for a few months?" ”
"Nope! Others may not be able to, but Rambo definitely can! Captain Sam nodded very seriously, "As my former subordinate, Rambo has extraordinary willpower, if he really wants to stay in the mountains for a few months, he will definitely survive!" ”
"What about food? There are no animals in the mountains now. "Sheriff Will sensed that Captain Sam was talking big.
"You can eat tree bark, or you can eat bugs."
Captain Sam explained indifferently: "Rambo is the strongest soldier I have ever met, in the Vietnam War, he once secretly lurked in the primeval rainforest for half a month, during which there was no support and supplies, he relied on some barely edible bark, leaves, insects and other things that are difficult for ordinary people to swallow to support his body consumption." ”
"Impossible! Are these things really edible? Bliss frowned, just listening to the words bark, leaves, and insects was enough to make people unappetizing, it was really hard to imagine that someone could eat for half a month in a row!
"Of course you can eat it, although it doesn't taste very good." Captain Sam looked like you don't believe it and can't do anything, "Whether you believe it or not, as long as Rambo really insists on staying in the mountains for a few months, believe me that he will definitely survive." ”
Sheriff Will thought of the water source and immediately looked up and asked, "What about the water!" We can send people to search near the water source in the Wells Mountains. ”
"It's useless." Captain Sam shook his head, "In the vast forests, water is the most lacking, the dew on the leaves in the morning, the sand water buried in the earth, as long as Rambo wants to drink, he can find a way and place to drink at any time." ”
In the 70s, most of the field survival skills of special soldiers were secrets of the military, unlike decades later, when there were programs and knowledge popularization of wild survival, not to mention that people could search for these wild survival information on the Internet at great will.
So it's understandable that Sheriff Will and the State Sheriff Bliss don't believe that Rambo can live like this, after all, before the extermination expert appeared, many ordinary people couldn't imagine that some insects could be eaten, and they were very nutritious, and the taste was still crunchy, like chicken.
"What you said is really unacceptable, is our prisoner superhuman!" The more Sergeant Will listened, the more he felt that this man named Rambo was extremely terrifying, where was this an ordinary soldier! It's simply a superman who can do anything in comic books.
"Rambo is not Superman, but in the jungle, he can do anything." Captain Sam looked at the sky outside the tent and remembered the unimaginable tasks and dangers that Rambo had gone through in that damn war.
"Alright, Captain Sam! Thank you for this information, and I will inform my subordinates to be careful. ”
Bliss didn't want Captain Sam to continue, because if he was allowed to continue, I'm afraid Sheriff Will wouldn't even be in the mood to be arrested!
Of course, it wasn't just Will who had such thoughts, even Bliss was a little afraid of this man named Rambo.
……
Native forests to the north of the Wales Mountains.
"You're setting a trap?"
Gu Ren stood behind Rambo and watched as he set up an ingenious little trap with vines, leaves, and branches.
Rambo laid out the trap and said without looking back, "A simple trick I learned from the Vietnamese soldiers in that damn war." ”
Hearing this, Gu Ren stood there silently, continued to watch Rambo work, only to see that he inserted two branches into the soil, and then tied the vines in the middle of the two branches, tied a slipknot, and wrapped the vines around the big tree on the side, after doing all this, he picked up a fallen leaf and made a simple cover for the branches and vines.
Rambo made the trap very quickly, and in just a few minutes, this little trap was ready.
"Are you sure this trap works?" Looking at such a simple trap, Gu Ren was very skeptical about the practicality of this trap, although the concealment work was well done, if you didn't look carefully, you wouldn't be able to find it at all.
"You can try it."
Rambo glanced back at Gu Ren and said in a low voice: "Don't underestimate any trap in the jungle, I once saw my comrade-in-arms with my own eyes, and I couldn't step on this trap without my heart, a two-hundred-pound strong man was directly hung on a tree, if it weren't for luck, with me next to him, he would probably have to face the enemy's guns, or simply hang upside down on the tree and starve to death!" ”
As soon as Gu Ren heard Rambo say this, he no longer doubted the practicality of this small trap, but he was still curious why Rambo spent effort on it, "I don't think you need to set these traps at all, the people who captured you can't catch up with us at all." ”
"Nope." Rambo shook his head and said: "If you don't do anything, believe me, they will catch up quickly, set a little trap, so that they can take care of the potential danger ahead, so as to reduce the speed of the pursuit, only in this way can we run more at ease." ”
Speaking of this, Rambo paused for a second, a trace of vigilance flashed in his eyes, when he saw the state police helicopter before, he guessed that if the state police did not succeed in arresting him this time, I am afraid that the people of the National Guard would also be dispatched, and then it would not be these ineffective police officers who would be faced.
