"This trap is a bit special." Jason suddenly whispered.
"What's wrong?" Lin Rui whispered.
Jason lowered his voice and said, "This trap is called a Thomas trap, also called a fishing line trap. It was named after an American soldier during the Vietnam War who discovered this jungle trap used by the North Vietnamese troops during the Vietnam War. . Like the infamous Bamboo Spike Trap, the Toms hair trap claimed the lives of many American soldiers on the battlefield in Vietnam."
"How do you know so clearly?" Lin Rui frowned.
"The Vietnam War is an eternal pain in the hearts of the US military, so during the jungle combat training of the Green Berets, these jungle traps were introduced in detail." Jiang An nodded and said, "Jason is right, from Judging from the structure and layout, this is a standard Thomas hair trap. And I don¡¯t know if you have noticed, these nylon threads are used as trip wires.¡±
"It's a fishing line." Lin Rui frowned.
"That's right, and this kind of fishing line is included in our wilderness survival equipment." Jiang An whispered, "The person who laid this trap should be a US military, and it is most likely Jason's teammate. Only the US Army Only special forces are proficient in these methods of mountain and jungle warfare."
Lin Rui frowned and said, "So, the one who laid the trap was not the extremists who studied the virus, but a surviving American soldier?"
"It is very likely that they are the commando members who were not captured and survived successfully during those attacks." Masaki nodded.
Yelena frowned and said, "Why not those extremists who study viruses?"
"Because, setting up such a trap takes too much time and is inefficient. It can only be used when the situation is at the end of the rope and there is no way to solve the dilemma. If it were those extremists, they would not arrange such a low-level trap Traps, they will install mines, or other warning devices. In short, it is much more effective than these things." Lin Rui explained, "Only those US troops who are trapped here have no more resources, and they are most likely to be alone. Only one person would use such a helpless method."
Jiang An nodded, "Lin Rui is right, and look at this, you can see the faint sawtooth scratches on the sharp wooden stakes on the upper part. This is due to the knife-wielding knife when cutting the wooden stakes. The hand was a little flat. This caused the serrations on the other side to leave marks. If I guessed correctly, this is definitely an M9 dagger."
"It seems that it must be a US military. Captain, what is your attitude?" Lincoln looked at Lin Rui and said.
"The purpose of our mission is very clear, to find and capture the professor who studies viruses." Lin Rui said slowly, "If this American soldier really survived from the three original commandos, then he will be very helpful to us. . Because he is likely to know the specific location and defense situation of this biochemical research laboratory."
"But our mission is" Sergey whispered.
"Priority is given to completing the first goal." Lin Rui shrugged, "We must find this lucky guy, if he is not dead yet."
"Hey, look here." Wang Haoze pulled out a blood-stained bandage from the mound on one side. "Maybe this guy is not very lucky. It looks like he was seriously injured."
Lin Rui frowned and said, "But he still treated the wound calmly and buried the bloody bandage so as not to attract attention. This shows that he is nearby."
"With this amount of bleeding, he should be seriously injured. But why didn't he escape from here and go out to seek help?" Lincoln frowned.
"If you and Jason are captured, I won't leave." Lin Rui said slowly. "Maybe that's why he's still here. His teammates are still here, so he's trying to rescue them."
"You can't tell that this American is still a tough guy. He was so seriously injured and still refused to abandon his comrades." Sergey shrugged. Although his tone still maintained his disdain for Americans, his expression was different. There was a hint of respect. After all, people who can do this are worthy of respect.
Lin Rui knelt down and whispered, "He buried the bloody bandage here, so he must have left from here. I may be able to track him."
"How to track it?" Lu Hanxin couldn't help but ask.
"Footprints are small plants that are broken due to external force. As long as you observe patiently enough, you will find traces left by this person everywhere. This will allow us to find this person very smoothly." Lin Rui stared at the ground. Looking at the bushes pointing to one side, he said, "He passed through this bush."
"How could it be? I didn't see any suspicious traces at all." Lu Hanxin frownedroad.
"Hurry up and follow the doctor. If you are late, you may not be able to save lives and heal the injured." Lin Rui shrugged and inspected the bush, then picked a leaf and handed it to Lu Hanxin.
There are bloodstains on this leaf. Although the bloodstains have dried, they should not have been there for a long time. You can still smell a trace of blood from this leaf. "Now you should believe what I say." Lin Rui shrugged.
"Okay, you win. Maybe you really have a dog nose." Lu Hanxin shrugged helplessly.
Lin Rui led the team members through the bushes and stopped by a small stream.
"He has been here before. There are two footprints on the wet soil by the creek. But one is deeper and the other is shallower, indicating that at least one of his legs was injured." Lin Rui pointed to the ground and said, "He lost too much blood. Please add here. He drank some water. But he was wise and did not drink more. But judging from the footprints, he must be very tired and could not escape far."
"You're right!" A black shadow jumped down from the tree and wrapped itself around Lin Rui. The two of them rolled to the ground at the same time. A shirtless man stood up and held an M9 dagger in his hand, which he placed across Lin Rui's neck.
¡°Boss!¡± Sergey exclaimed and immediately picked up the gun in his hand.
"Don't shoot!" Lin Rui immediately waved his hand to stop him, "He is the American soldier."
"American soldiers? Is that what you call us?" The man smiled coldly, "Then who are you? An international military-industrial group that studies virus weapons, or members of some terrorist organization?"
"Just mercenaries." Lin Rui said calmly.
"As expected. Asians, Russians, and Americans. So you are an international mercenary group?" The shirtless American soldier with a fierce look in his eyes said sternly, "Don't move. Who are you?" If he dares to move, I will slit his throat."
Lin Rui chuckled and said, "Brother, your knife is fast enough, but is this a threat?"
"What do you think?" the American soldier shouted sharply. Lin Rui could feel that the M9 dagger in his hand was near his carotid artery. This man is also a connoisseur. Lin Rui smiled slightly.
