"This is the future. Colonel Morgan said calmly.
"yes, the future. Long Noon took a sip from his glass, "It makes me feel old." No one but my wife has ever made me feel this way. That's why I hate drones. Have they set off?"
"It's already set off, and they're going to follow an old road in Latakia to that town. Colonel Morgan turned to the U.S. military staff on the side and said, "Switch to satellite monitoring, the dynamics of some extremists." ”
"Yes, Colonel. ”
A satellite image is zoomed in on the big screen, and the result is a picture that is not very clear. However, it is good that satellite photos can have such an effect.
"They didn't react at all. Colonel Morgan nodded, "It's good for our raids." ”
"Report, our drone found an anomaly on the ground. "The technician connected the drone's surveillance video to the home screen. The four transporters on the screen are moving normally, while on the other side, in the distance, there seems to be a black dot that is speeding through guò. No one knows what it is. Morgan frowned, "It looks like a motorcycle, do you think it's him?"
"It should be. Long said to him at noon, "This time he insisted on acting alone. ”
Colonel Morgan sneered and said, "Aren't you afraid that the drone will accidentally hurt him?"
"I'm sitting here to make sure that. So you'd better be careful. Long Xiaowu said slowly, "As long as something happens to him, everyone involved in this from the Ministry of Defense to this office will have an accident, I'm not kidding." ”
Long Noon didn't show a fierce and threatening tone, but seemed to be stating a normal fact. But his words made everyone's faces change, this bold man, is he threatening everyone?
"Are you a threat?" said Colonel Morgan, frowning.
"What do you say?" asked Long Zhiwu rhetorically, the smile on his lips still so strong.
Morgan was silent for a moment and turned to say, "Don't be so sensitive, at least this time we're working together." ”
Dragon Noon shrugged. "Of course. ”
Everyone in the command room was strange, they all knew what kind of man Colonel Morgan was, a figure known for his toughness and short temper. In fact, if he hadn't offended too many people with his stinky temper, he might have been a brigadier general by now.
But it is such a person, when dealing with this fat man in a suit, he seems to be patient everywhere, and even a little low-voiced. This makes this amiable Asian fat man a little weird. Logically speaking, he is just the owner of a military company. As the employer of this operation, Colonel Morgan did not need to look at all blush. Now it seemed to be the other way around, and Colonel Morgan seemed to be a little afraid of the fat man.
Even this fat man was in the command room, holding a wine glass, and no one dared to say anything about him.
Lin Rui and the others' planes actually landed in the open space of a warehouse in an industrial zone. The industrial zone, located 20 kilometres north of the port of Latakia, has long been the site of a confrontation between rebels and government forces.
Nearly four years after the violence raged, the war economy is dominating the unemployment rate of 60 companies. Ninety percent of the city is without power. Because 3.8 million people have fled the country since the war, the displacement of people is a major factor in the lights out. Electricity shortages and damage to infrastructure are also important causes.
The only thing that has not been reduced is the various checkpoints along the route, whether they are controlled by the government or the insurgents, which have become places for all kinds of transactions. Food Imports, Household Appliances...... The checkpoints were bought and sold in a way that allowed the beneficiaries of the war to turn their power into cash. These checkpoints are set up more out of monetary motivation than by security considerations.
Lin Rui and the others chose an old road, which had been abandoned for many years, overgrown with weeds, and rarely passed. But the road allows them to bypass all the checkpoints and go straight to their target, the extremist camp.
It's just that the road is in disrepair, and the feeling of bumps along the way is not pleasant. However, more than thirty kilometers is not very far, and soon they have reached a short distance from their destination.
Compared to the darkness of the city, the town was brightly lit, and even equipped with large searchlights.
However, under the binoculars, Lin Rui was surprised to find that the so-called searchlight was actually the kind of large-scale stadium lighting equipment used in football fields. It was probably dismantled at some course.
The walls of the town have also been heightened and reinforced, and there are a lot of messy things piled up at the entrances and exits. The sandbags used as bunkers are built in many layers from the inside out. Wooden barricades were wrapped with barbed wires with blades, and wood burned in several diesel barrels at the door. A group of militants gathered there to smoke.
"How about it, shall we do it?" Jason whispered in Lin Rui's ear.
"Don't worry, it's Zhao Jianfei's responsibility to create surface pressure here. Let's go in that direction, and once Zhao Jianfei and them hit the front, we'll blow up the wall and break straight into the town. It's like we planned before, understand?" Lin Rui said in a low voice.
"Understood. Jason nodded, waved his hand and shouted to the mercenaries behind him, "Get out of the car and come with me, this is not the place we are responsible for." We're in charge of creating surprises. ”
Lin Rui, with his six team members, as well as more than twenty mercenaries from Team A, took advantage of the night to gather in the southeast of the town. After arriving at the predetermined location, Lin Rui GPS positioning and waved his hand for Park Dongxiang to install explosives.
After the qiē was completed, Lin Rui connected to Colonel Morgan's communication and reported the situation to him, "We have arrived at the predetermined position on the southeast side of the camp. The explosives were installed as originally planned. You can do the next step planning. ”
"Good. Colonel Morgan whispered, "Team B, start attacking head-on and try to attract as much attention as possible." Then assign half of the men to attack at the same time in the direction of the other back door, making sure to draw the attention of the extremists to the front and rear gates. ”
"Roger. After Zhao Jianfei cut off the communication, he immediately waved his hand back. The mercenaries suddenly attacked in the direction of the gate. The bullets fired at night were like countless red lines, and the explosion of grenades and the violent gunfire merged.
Only then did several militants who were defending at the gate react, and the cat ducked down and hid near the bunker at the entrance and began to organize a counterattack. One of the militants shook the hand-cranked anti-aircraft siren placed on the side and shouted hoarsely -- "Enemy attack!!
