Chapter 690: Entering the minefield wisely

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The team rested in the jungle for a night, but they did not sleep well this night.  This is a tropical rainforest, overgrown with weeds and shrubs, and a world of insects.  All they have to fight against it is a few cans of insect repellent spray, and the mosquitoes here are particularly powerful.

    "Oh my god, how do people live here?" Sergey slapped himself again, and the mosquitoes stained with blood on his hand.  "How can people live in this place? This is simply a paradise for mosquitoes."

    "You Russian guy only deserves to live in a world of ice and snow." Lin Rui sighed.

    Sergey said unconvinced, "Aren't you asleep too?"

    "Nonsense, who can fall asleep in this situation? I almost sprayed mosquito repellent in my crotch, but I still couldn't stop the damn mosquitoes. I don't know if I will be infected with malaria?" Jason said with a bitter smile.

    "Africans still have a way. Did you know that some indigenous tribes burn cow dung into ashes, mix it with cow urine and apply it on their bodies? The effect of preventing mosquitoes is first-rate, much better than this crappy mosquito repellent."  Kishi sighed.

    "Stop talking, I will never use this kind of anti-mosquito method. I wasn't bitten to death by mosquitoes, but I was disgusted to death." Yelena got up and shook her head. "It's almost dawn, so I'd better endure it for a while. I'll go around  Turn around, I can¡¯t sleep anyway.¡±

    "Don't move!" Lin Rui suddenly held her down in the darkness and whispered, "Don't make a sound, there is movement." The team members immediately stood up, each took their weapons, and entered a state of alert.

    There was indeed a sound nearby, very faint at first but gradually getting closer, and there was light coming from the top of the forest.

    "It's a helicopter!" Lin Rui squatted in the grass and whispered.

    "Come from the base?" Sergey frowned.

    Sergeant Green shook his head and said, "It's not coming out of the base, more like entering the base. I've noticed it before. In the past few days, there are often helicopters like this coming in and out at night. The time is not fixed, but they are all in  Late night or dawn activity.¡±

    "I was shocked. I thought we showed some traces and were tracked by them." Wang Haoze whispered, "Since it is routine, we don't need to pay too much attention."

    Lin Rui turned to Sergeant Green and whispered, "You mean their helicopters only operate at night and basically don't fly during the day?"

    "Yes, I have been wandering in the jungle for a week, but I have never found any trace of a helicopter during the day. Is there any problem with this?" Sergeant Green frowned.

    "It's nothing, I was just thinking that this might be an opportunity." Lin Rui frowned, "If we can control one of the helicopters after entering the base, we can quickly complete the evacuation after the arrest."

    "I'm afraid it's not that easy! The helipad is heavily guarded, and the opponent's number is far greater than ours. And we must first sneak inside and find Professor Schmed. It is still unknown whether the alarm will be triggered during this process.  Once the alarm is triggered, there is no way we can even think about leaving by helicopter." Jiang An thought for a moment and said, "Don't forget, they have vehicle-mounted anti-aircraft missiles."

    "Then try to get rid of the anti-aircraft missiles first." Lin Rui replied.

    "Is this how you fight, considering an evacuation plan before the war starts?" Sergeant Green seemed a little difficult to understand the practices of these mercenaries.

    Lin Rui shook his head, "We are not a regular army, and many times we have no backup at all. If we want to successfully complete the mission and escape smoothly, we must make a strict plan. We don't want to have no life to get paid after working hard, so we evacuate  Just as important as the mission.¡±

    "In this case, I suggest that we enter directly from here. After passing through this minefield, we should be at the material warehouse of the base. The laboratory is in the center of the base. There are not many people in the material warehouse at ordinary times, and the guards are not as good as on the periphery.  Yan." Green thought for a while and said, "It is safest to sneak in at dawn."

    "But how are we going to get through this minefield?" Lu Hanxin asked worriedly.

    "Leave it to me. I have experience in this matter. There are traces of any landmine laid. As long as you observe carefully, you can find the traces." Lincoln nodded and said, "I will go ahead and point out the mines for you."  Location. As long as you follow me carefully, you'll be fine."

    "How to find it? We didn't even prepare a mine detector." Jason frowned.

    "Follow me, commando." Lincoln smiled proudly.

    The sky is getting brighter.  In this damp forest, Lincoln squatted on the ground and moved forward slowly, then suddenly stopped.  Then he turned around and made a gesture, placing a strip of white cloth on the ground."Be careful, there are mines here." Everyone followed him, carefully avoiding that place, and then continued to move forward.

    It¡¯s strange to say that Lincoln pointed out several suspicious places in succession.  The team members walked zigzag through the minefield, but never triggered a mine.  It's as if Lincoln really had some extraordinary ability to foresee landmines buried underground.

    Jason couldn¡¯t help it anymore, ¡°Hey, man, what¡¯s going on? How did you know there were landmines there?¡±

    "A professional scout's professional secret." Lincoln shrugged. "Once you tell it, it won't be worth anything."

    Lin Rui smiled slightly and said, "I know."

    "You know? What's going on?" Jason frowned.

    "Actually, it's very simple to put it bluntly. There is abundant rainfall here, so the vegetation is lush and grass is everywhere. The mines are buried below, because the soil covering the upper part is looser, so the grass will grow lusher. As long as you observe carefully, you can still see it.  I can see some traces. To put it bluntly, it is like farmers farming. Before planting, it is best to turn the soil over first. Keeping the soil on the surface soft can make the plants grow better.

    Of course, it is difficult to see the effect in other places.  However, this is a tropical rainforest, and the climate and rainfall itself are conducive to plant growth.  The growth of plants after loosening the soil is obviously better than that of natural growth.  This is common sense.  Lin Rui shrugged.

    "Damn, why didn't I think of that?" Jason suddenly realized.  "That's right. After a mine has been buried, no one will step on it just to make the soil on the surface firmer. So the soil where the mine has been buried must be softer. It turns out to be such a simple truth."

    "But it's not easy, it requires careful observation and bold judgment. You can't pull off this trick without a little experience." Lin Rui shrugged, "Stop worrying about this, hurry up and follow us.  There's still work to be done. Hey, doctor, are you okay?"

    "I'm fine." Lu Hanxin gritted her teeth and said.  She had experienced some wars and killings in Africa, but this was her first time wandering around in this minefield with a group of life-threatening mercenaries.
