About ten minutes later. Lin Rui and his team members found a section of railway track hidden in the grass.
Sausage lowered his head and checked, "This section of rail is much narrower than normal rails. It is very similar to the one used by the French before World War I. It should be suitable for mine transportation."
"Yes, it should be from the colonial period." Lin Rui nodded. "Judging from the degree of rust, it must be hundreds of years old."
The colonel walked over and nodded, "This is where the ore is transported from the mine. It is very old, and only this section should be left.
The other end leads to the abandoned mine. We follow the railroad tracks and it shouldn¡¯t take long to find it. "
Lin Rui waved to the team members behind him, "We are moving along the railway track. Everyone, stay vigilant.
Sergey and Sausage protect the colonel as he advances. Scarface, Kuai Ma, you are responsible for guarding the flanks. Eric and Curry are responsible for rear security. Everyone follow. "
They walked along the railroad tracks for a while, and after about 20 minutes, they finally found the abandoned mine the colonel had mentioned.
This mine originally had some surface buildings, but more than half of them have collapsed, and the remaining half is overgrown with grass. It has long been dilapidated. If you hadn't looked closer, you wouldn't even know it was an abandoned mine.
"Let's go from here." The colonel led them through the ruins and into a half-collapsed mine.
"Is this place strong? It looks like these reinforced sleepers are hundreds of years old. They won't bury us all in them." Sergey complained as he walked. "Won't they use concrete for reinforcement?"
"You'd better shut up. If this place really collapsed, it must have been shaken by your nonsense." Lin Rui shook his head.
"I'm just talking. The collapse of this alleyway, what does it have to do with me? Can the sound of my words cause this place to collapse?" Sergey said disapprovingly.
"Well, have you ever heard of resonance? It's just like on a snowy mountain. Sound waves can cause vibrations and even trigger avalanches.
If you continue to chatter like this, in order to prevent the brothers from being buried in it, I can only sacrifice my socks and use it to plug your broken mouth. Lin Rui shook his head and continued to move forward.
The colonel walking in front suddenly made a gesture, "We'd better stop."
"What's wrong?" Lin Rui asked.
"We are about to enter the intersection. If I guessed correctly, the alley in front should be the location leading to the secret passage." The colonel walked to the other side and waved, "Please give me some lighting."
Lin Rui turned on the tactical flashlight and followed the colonel. They seemed to have entered a relatively open area.
¡°This should be a chamber, which refers to a spatial structure with a larger cross-section or shorter length that is excavated and built underground for a specific purpose.
There is a passage there that leads to the underground mines of Fort Gerald. But the location is very complicated, and even I can't remember it clearly.
But in order to deal with this problem, I drew a graph here. "
The colonel's body was still a little weak. He walked to a corner and wanted to open a shelf where miscellaneous items were stored. But not enough power.
It was only with the help of a mercenary that they successfully removed the shelf.
"What's on top of this?" Lin Rui used such a flashlight to shine on the graphics on the back of the shelf.
There is a densely drawn pattern on it, with lines and geometric shapes that don¡¯t know what they represent everywhere.
"It's a map. I worked hard underground for several months to figure out the topographic map." The colonel looked at the graphics and whispered, "Our current location is here. This is the entrance we came in before. Follow this The laneway provides access to the underground passage to Gerardburg.¡±
"Then what is this triangle?" Sergey asked.
"It's a trap. I'm afraid that someone will find out here and set up traps in several other channels. This triangle represents stable support. The circle outside represents that stable support has been destroyed.
If someone steps on this trap, where will they be buried? "The colonel shook his head.
"Where is the square over there?" Lin Rui asked.
"There is a temporary hiding room. I originally planned to take all the brothers with me. If that were the case, I would definitely be pursued by the guards.
So I was very unstable in that structure.I will set up a trap at the location, and then I will take the brothers to hide in the hidden room with a stable structure.
In this way, when the guards are pursuing us, they will have to stop pursuing us due to landslides.
And we can take this path out of the hidden room. I originally planned it very carefully, but unfortunately I couldn't use it. "The colonel sighed softly.
"Colonel, with all due respect, we have no time to lament now." Lin Rui patted him, "We should go."
The colonel nodded, stretched out his hand and said, "Come on, come this way."
Lin Rui and his party followed the colonel. Passed through a crack just big enough for one person to walk through. Entered another underground mine tunnel.
"Everyone stop, the work area is ahead." The colonel nodded. "In order to avoid misunderstandings, I suggest that I make the representations.
I will negotiate with our people and ask them to find General Kadom. Then we took him away. "
"What about the others?" Kuai Ma asked. ¡°We rescued General Kadom, and the others left behind will be implicated.
And we have no better way to take them all away. Just leave them as victims? "
"This is the only way. We can't rescue everyone. We can only take away as many of them as possible. But the general must be rescued. His role is greater than any of us." The colonel replied.
"You mean the life of a general is worth more than that of an ordinary soldier?" Kuai Ma mocked coldly.
"The life of a general and the life of a soldier are equal. But each person's role in life is different.
If General Kadom returns to Anmore alive, his role will be far greater than a few soldiers returning to Anmore alive.
¡°That¡¯s why we must take the risk to rescue him. Not because he was Kadom, nor because of his rank. But because of his influence over the people of Anmor. replied the colonel.
Lin Rui was silent for a while, then reached out and patted Kuai Ma on the shoulder, "The colonel is right. We can only save everyone as much as possible, but if not, we can only ensure that the general leaves safely."
"But those soldiers are also human beings." Kuai Ma whispered, "During my service in the mountains of Afghanistan, I was abandoned by my comrades and superiors. I know what it feels like.
How desperate is it to be alone and abandoned by the person you trust most? "
