Chapter 4589: Insidious trap
Lin Rui and the mercenaries he led once again entered Redmai City. Because of this armed uprising, many places in the city were in chaos. These fanatical insurgents were not purely good people. They were mixed with many criminals and bandits. They even robbed and burned part of the block.
The entire streets of Redmey were in a mess, and black smoke was everywhere, said to be the tires of vehicles burned by the rebels.
"This is our employer? I take back the claim that they are mobs, they are simply armed thugs. Look at this place that is harmed by them." Actuary Jiangan couldn't help shaking his head.
Lin Rui shook his head, "There must be collateral losses. These Orumi Federation members have been suppressed too hard before. It seems that there has been an exchange of fire nearby. Strangely, we have been around the Federal Police headquarters. Why did we not find Orumi? Rumi Police Force."
"Bang!" A gunshot sounded. Lin Rui immediately turned around and leaned against the wall and said loudly, "Pay attention to concealment!"
"They're right here." Sausage whispered behind him, "and we may have been spotted." Lin Rui turned his head and saw something moving in the darkness of the alley behind him. A shadow that appeared in the shadow was a figure he was familiar with.
"Eric?" he whispered.
The shadow turned around and nodded to him. It's the sniper Eric, who was sent out for reconnaissance before and just returned.
Another mercenary hung down from the steel beam pipe frame above their heads and fell behind Eric, acting silently like a cat. He was also a member of the reconnaissance team. He untied the rope around his waist and reported with Eric.
"Report, boss. We went to the front and found a federal checkpoint ahead. By the way, we caught a living and came back." Eric dragged a captive out of the corner.
The captive was tied with a nylon strap with his hands and looked calm, but when he came to Lin Rui, he suddenly became troubled and attacked Lin Rui suddenly. His hands were tied back, unable to exert force, but his feet were free, but he suddenly kicked on the ground and hit Lin Rui's jaw with his hard skull.
Lin Rui quickly made an evasive movement, turning around and swiping at the prisoner with his knees. The man was hit by the knee and fell heavily on Lin Rui's feet.
The mercenary next to Eric walked over and dropped a shot on the captive's waist, shouting, "Honestly! Who are you? Where are the other federal police?"
The **** is heavy and the position is tricky. The captive rolled around in pain, but he just gritted his teeth and said nothing. Eric was about to lift his foot and kick, but was stopped by the actuary.
"Look at his uniform, it should be from the anti-smuggling tax police force." The actuary said with a frown. "But according to intelligence, they should be besieging Beicheng District with the police force. They shouldn't be here at all."
"Maybe just a small character staying at the checkpoint." Sausage frowned.
"The little character won't do the two tricks just now, let alone still be strong at this time." The actuary grabbed the captive and suddenly pulled off his sleeve. The captive's arm was tattooed with a dagger hidden in the red waves.
"Red tide! Damn, I didn't see that this guy is still a member of the secret society organization! I really underestimated him." Eric stepped forward and kicked the captive. "These guys are die-hard loyalists of the secret society. They don't want to explain anything. It's better to just kill them."
The actuary nodded and waved to let Eric take the captive away. But he pulled Lin Rui to the side, lowered his voice, "The situation is not right."
"What's the matter?" Lin Rui asked.
"This is not a critical section, and the secret society organization should not deploy Red Tide members here. The intelligence pointed out that the insurgents were trapped in the commercial area near North Avenue. Then the main force of the enemy should be deployed in the north of the city. .Why is there such an inexplicable guard post here?" The actuary frowned.
"Although what you said is reasonable. But maybe this is just a temporary checkpoint. Is there any problem with this?" Lin Rui asked.
"No, but this checkpoint is basically useless to the insurgents in the north of the city. The checkpoint is set up here for only one purpose, and that is to prevent this road." The actuary lowered his voice.
Lin Rui nodded thoughtfully. "should be."
"They want to prevent us from entering from outside the city? But to prevent us from entering from outside the city, how can these people at the checkpoint be able to stop it? Before, we played so lively outside the city and along Highway 4. The police force in the city should also know how many people we have.
Relying on a temporary checkpoint, with a squad of troops to stop us thousands of people? The enemy is not a fool. If we connect these doubts together, wouldn't it seem strange? Especially this checkpoint, isn't it superfluous and unnecessary? "The actuary said in a low voice.
"But in fact, they not only think it is necessary, but they also sent the capable members of the Red Tide team to guard here personally. It can be seen how much they attach to this." Lin Rui nodded.
"Why don't we think about it from another angle? Maybe this checkpoint is not to stop us, but to monitor us. Look at the map." The actuary took out the electronic map and drew a line on it.
"The insurgents in the city are trapped here, and this is where we enter the city. So this is our preferred route to rescue the insurgents in the city. This is the location of the checkpoint. This checkpoint is actually a monitoring point, they can The route of our troops is clear." The actuary reminded the shore.
"But why do they do this? Is it?" Lin Rui was suddenly startled, "They want to make sure we march along the planned route. If so, then there is only one possibility. They presupposed an ambush in front."
"Yes. It's very possible. You see from here to here, there is only one straight road, no other way to go. If the enemy sets ambush on both sides, it is likely to give us a heavy blow. And I'm sure, the rebels in the city They are not besieged in the north of the city. Otherwise, the Orumi military police will not deploy a large number of troops here." The actuary said in a low voice.
"Yes, they won't let the rebels just leave them alone. If you find such a hypothesis, then the information we got before should be false. Including the information provided by Colonel Giles, the commander of the rebels in the city. But why would Giles do? Provide false information?" Sergey couldn't help asking.
"The communication channel may not be Giles, it is very likely that someone from the secret agency will pretend to be." The actuary Jiangan shook his head. "Someone pretended to be Colonel Giles to communicate with us and lied to us that the rebels were trapped in the northern part of the city. In fact, the rebels were trapped in the east area of the city."
