Battlefield Contractor

"How is it?" Lin Rui patted the crazy horse beside him.

Crazy Horse took off his clothes, wrung out the water from his clothes, smiled bitterly, "Not very good. That's why I chose to be the Army instead of the Marine Corps. This **** storm is just crazy."

"Well, the worst is over. We are now not far from Socotra Island. At the current speed, we should be able to arrive in more than four hours. That is to say, we can be there when the sky is dark Arrived." Jiangan turned on the tactical computer, "I asked Cobain to do some investigations. The most likely location of the target should be an island in the Socotra Islands. There used to be Soviet troops stationed there. There should be some semi-permanent buildings and piers. But our ship cannot be docked."

"Why?" Sausage asked.

"Because a twelve-meter-long fishing boat drove directly over, the goal was too obvious." Jiang Shen said, "If we don't want to encounter an attack after landing on the island, it is best to park the boat on the island Place, and then pass from there."

"Well, but in this case, we have to cross the small half of the island." Lin Rui frowned.

"I have calculated the distance, this small island is not big, we will not travel more than five kilometers." Jiang An replied, "This island is uninhabited, but we still have to cross a low-lying basin to reach the destination. . And always be careful not to reveal our whereabouts. If you encounter an enemy, you must solve it silently. Otherwise, the entire island may be aware of a gunshot."

"How many people do you think there will be there, and how much resistance will we encounter?" Lin Rui frowned.

"It shouldn't be much. This island should be the place where the rebels used the facilities left by the Soviet army to hide weapons and ammunition. Because considering the supply issues, the number of people will definitely not be large." Jiang An replied, "We What really needs to be careful is the secret society armed forces. We don’t know how many people they come. They may be later than us, or they may have arrived.

But if they have arrived, we have to give up the action and declare the mission failed. Because they certainly won't let the members of the signal flag special forces alive. "

Lin Rui nodded, "I also thought of this, but we still have to try our luck. As for whether the action can be successful, now it seems that more than half of it depends on luck."

At this time Sergey walked back in embarrassment, "Brothers, can I change the helm, I think I'm almost out of it. I need a rest."

"Sausage, go and do it for him for a while." Lin Rui pointed at the sausage. "We will be there in a few hours. I hope there will be no more accidents."

Sausage nodded and turned to take over for Sergey to sail the boat. And Sergey lay down in the cabin, took a sip from the small hip flask, and whispered, "Damn, I feel like I'm going crazy in such a big storm."

"Relax, you did a good job. We'll be on Socotra Island in a few hours." Lin Rui patted him, "However, drink less. We still have tasks next."

When the fishing boat approached the island, it was less than five o'clock. Lin Rui and others chose to follow Jiang An's suggestion and docked the boat in a relatively hidden place, and then the whole team landed on the island and moved towards the center of the island. There are large tracts of hills and mountain valleys in the middle of the island.

The climate of Socotra Island is very harsh, and the reason for the dry climate is related to the coastal Somali cold current. The hot and dry climate also causes the world's most exotic plants to grow here. Socotra Island overturned all the impressions of normal scenery in Lin Rui's mind. The scenery of this island seemed to come from another planet or from a certain period in the ancient and future of the earth. Because there are more than 700 peculiar and rare flora and fauna living on Socotra Island, one third of which are unique to Socotra Island.

It looks like a tropical desert, but there are all kinds of strangely shaped tall umbrella plants. Walking through it when it's dark, it makes people feel weird and creepy. Sergey whispered, "This place is like a scene from hell."

"Then get familiar with it. Anyway, after you die, you will definitely go to hell." Crazy Horse mocked him in a low voice while watching the surrounding vigilantly. Obviously, I was surprised by the special features of this place.

Jiangan said in a low voice, "Before 1991, the government completely prohibited anyone, including scientific research personnel and environmentalists, from boarding the Socotra Islands because of its special geographical location and strategic importance. But there are many plants on this island. And animals are unique. Have you seen those weird trees? It is a dragon's blood tree, which is said to be the only place in the world."

"Be careful. The terrain is complicated. It is very likely that you will encounter enemy guards." Lin Rui turned his head and said, "Better stop talking and proceed with caution." Sergey shrugged and stopped talking. The individuals dispersed into a scattered search formation, slowly advancing forward.

The Crazy Horse who was walking in front suddenly squatted down and stretched out his hand to stop moving forward.

"What's wrong?" Lin Rui asked in a low voice.

"I think we may have gotten closer." Crazy Horse knelt down and pointed to a wooden stake standing on the side.

The stake does not look very thick, and it has been grayed out from the sun and rain. But Lin Rui was still able to see the entangled iron wire remaining on it. These iron wires have been severely corroded and will break when touched by your hands. And there is the same wooden stake not far away.

"This is a trace of the barbed wire deployed by the Soviet army. The barbed wire is completely rusted, and only these wooden stakes are left. Look, there are still heavily rusted metal cans." Crazy Horse whispered. "This is the most primitive alarm system before. As long as someone wants to hop over these wire fences, or intermittent wire fences, they will touch the cans. The cans are made of iron or aluminum. They will make a sound whenever they touch it. You will find out. This kind of technique was often used during World War II."

"There are traces of a wire fence, which shows that we are approaching the former Soviet base on the island." Lin Rui whispered, "Be more vigilant. If the militants are on this island, they should be nearby. Go. Disperse and keep moving forward in a low position."

The surrounding team members all dispersed, placed their bodies very low, and continued to move forward with the help of the low vegetation on the island. After walking for nearly three hundred meters, they began to see the flickering lights in front. Lin Rui's heart tightened slightly, there should be someone moving there. They finally found the militants hiding here.
