Chapter 4567: Dangerous mine

About ten minutes later. Lin Rui and his team members found a section of railroad track hidden in the grass.
Sausage lowered his head and checked, "This section of the rail is much narrower than the normal rail. It looks like the type 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. "From the extent of the rust, it should have been hundreds of years."
The colonel walked over and nodded, "This is to transport ore from the mine. The age is very old, so only this section should be left.
On the other end, leading to the abandoned mine, we followed the railroad tracks and it shouldn't take long to find it. "
Lin Rui waved to the players behind him, "We are going along the tracks. Everyone, stay vigilant.
Sergey and Sausage protect the colonel from going forward. Scarface, fast horse, you are responsible for guarding the flanks. Eric and Curry are responsible for the rear guard. Everyone keeps up. "
They walked along the tracks for a while, and after about 20 minutes, they finally found the abandoned mine that the colonel said.
This mine originally had some surface structures, but most of it has collapsed, and the remaining half is also covered with weeds. It has long been dilapidated, if it weren't for a closer look, I wouldn't even know it was an abandoned mine.
"We're going from here." The colonel led the way for them, led them through the ruins and into a mine that had collapsed in half.
"Is this place strong? It seems that these reinforced sleepers have been around for hundreds of years. They won't bury us all in them." Sergey complained as he walked. "Will they not use concrete for reinforcement?"
"You better shut up. If this place really collapses, it must have been collapsed by your nonsense." Lin Rui shook his head.
"I'm just talking. This tunnel collapsed. What does it have to do with me? The sound of my talking can knock this place down?" Sergey said disapprovingly.
"Well, have you ever heard of resonance? It's like being on a snow mountain. Sound waves can cause vibrations and even avalanches.
If you keep chattering like this, in order to avoid the brothers being buried in it, I can only sacrifice my sock and use it to plug your broken mouth. Lin Rui shook his head and continued to walk forward.
The colonel walking in front suddenly made a gesture, "We'd better stop."
"What's the matter?" Lin Rui asked.
"I'm about to enter the intersection. If I'm not mistaken, the lane in front should be the location that leads 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. What they entered seemed to be a relatively empty position.
"This should be a chamber, which refers to a space structure with a large section or a short length that is excavated and constructed underground for a specific purpose.
There is a passage leading to the underground mine of Gerrard Fort. But the location is very complicated, even I can't remember it too clearly.
But in order to deal with this problem, I drew a graphic here. "
The colonel's body was still a bit weak, he walked to a corner, and wanted to open a shelf of debris. But there is not enough power.
It was with the assistance of a mercenary that they removed the shelf smoothly.
"What's on this?" Lin Rui used such a flashlight to illuminate the figure behind the shelf.
A figure is drawn densely on it, with lines everywhere, and geometric shapes that don't know what it represents.
"It's a map. I worked underground for several months before figuring out the topographical map." The colonel said in a low voice, looking at the graph. "Our current location is here. This is the entrance we came in. Follow this The tunnel can enter the underground passage to Gerrard Fort."
"Then this triangle, what is this?" Sergey asked.
"It's a trap. I'm afraid someone will find out here, and traps have been set up in several other passages. This triangle represents a solid support. The outer circle represents that the stable support has been destroyed.
If someone stepped on this trap, they would be buried somewhere. The colonel shook his head.
"Where is there a square?" Lin Rui asked.
"There is a temporary shelter. I originally planned to take all the brothers with me. If that were the case, I would definitely be chased by the guards.
So I set up a trap in that location where the structure is very unstable, and then I will take my brothers to hide in that well-structured shelter.
In this way, when the guards chase, they will have to stop chasing us because of the collapse.
And we can walk this way out from the hidden room. I originally planned it very well, but unfortunately I didn't use it. The colonel sighed in a low voice.
"The Colonel, forgive me, we don't have time to sigh now." Lin Rui patted him, "We should go."
The colonel nodded and stretched out his hand, "Come on, go this way."
Lin Rui and his party followed the colonel. Passed through a crack that could only accommodate the next person to walk. Entered another underground mine.
"Stop it all, and the work area is further ahead." The colonel nodded. "In order to avoid misunderstandings, I suggest that I come forward to negotiate.
I will negotiate with our people and let them try to find General Kadom. Then we took him away. "
"What about the others?" Kuima asked. "We rescued General Kadom, and those who were left behind by others will be implicated.
And we have no better way to take away all of them. Leave them as victims? "
"That's the only way, we can't save everyone. We can only take them away as much as possible. But the general must be rescued, and his role is greater than any of us." The colonel replied.
"You mean the general's life is worth more than ordinary soldiers?" Kuaima said coldly.
"The life of a general is equal to the life of a soldier. But each person's life is different.
If General Kadom returned to Anmore alive, his role would be far greater than that of a few soldiers returning to Anmore alive.
This is why we must risk saving him. Not because he is Kadom, nor because of his rank. But because of his influence on the people of Anmore. "The colonel replied.
Lin Rui was silent for a while, stretched out his hand and patted Kuaima's shoulder, "The colonel is right. We can only save everyone as much as possible, but if we can't, we can only ensure that the general leaves safely."
"But those soldiers are also human." Kuaima whispered, "During my service, when I was in the mountains of Afghanistan, I was abandoned by my comrades and superiors. I know how it feels.
How desperate is to be isolated and abandoned by the person you trust most? "
