869. Chapter 869 Ambush

In the safe house where the O2 team was hiding, Jiang An hurried over and whispered a few words in Lin Rui's ear.

"So they took the bait?"

Lin Rui said overjoyed.

Shogishi nodded, "Cobain did a great job, you, this is the video call he used to impersonate at the time." ”

He clicked on the tactical computer, where a dignified-looking white man personally gave the order.

"Who is this man?"

Lin Rui frowned.

Russian Defense Minister, Cobain, used videos of his meetings and speeches to edit them and rematch them with highly imitated voices. Make it a lot like that. The Minister of Defense personally inquired about this matter, and how could the commander of the Latakia airbase, Major General Alexei, ignore it? They must have wanted to take advantage of this prisoner exchange to deal a good blow to the arrogance of the extremists. It's just that they didn't think that all the qiē was a trap set by us. ”

The video on the computer was turned off and switched to the map.

Lin Rui nodded, "This is the place where we proposed to exchange prisoners of war, the location is in the mountains, surrounded by jungles, although it is not enough to limit the air power of the Russian army." But at least, it's a good position. The Russian army will not fail to take this into account, so this time they will definitely have other arrangements. ”

Shogishi nodded, "What did Cobain say?"

"Judging from his analysis, the investment of the Russian army is not small. After Cobain hacked into their information command system, he found a lot of interesting things, such as this, he pointed to a drone picture. ”

"This is a Russian drone?"

Park Dong-sang frowned and said, "I remember that Russia seems to have not paid much attention to the development of this kind of drone." ”

"You're right, this is the latest product of the drone Russians - the Ranger drone. It is mainly used for reconnaissance in a large radius, and it can also be used for small air strikes. ”

Lin Rui said in a low voice.

"Kobentong Guò investigated and found that two of the drones with attack performance had completed a maintenance overhaul, which usually takes place before take-off and mission. ”

"Sure enough, special forces are deployed on the ground, relying on drones for air support. The Russians are ruthless this time. ”

Shogishi said with a smile.

"I guess they'll have the drone check that booking area beforehand to make sure there's no problem before they're on the road. ”

Lin Rui pointed to the map, "Due to the destruction of a large number of roads, there are not many routes they can choose from from the base to the site of the hostage exchange. Especially this location. ”

"Ruins on the outskirts of the city of Cartakia. About two months ago, Russian and Syrian government forces fought here against members of extremist groups. Aerial bombs and rockets completely destroyed the city. ”

Shogishi nodded, "You mean we ambush here and fight their ambushes." ”

"Yes, they wouldn't have thought that someone would dare to do it on the outskirts of Latakia. And this area was bombed beyond recognition. There were ruins everywhere, whole collapsed houses, and extremely bad road conditions, making it difficult for them to get out quickly. ”

Lin Rui said in a low voice.

"I can ambush a nearby building, as long as my view is not affected. There is no problem with completing accurate sniping. ”

Yelena nodded.

"I can also cooperate with Yelena and ambush in another direction, such as this position. ”

Snake Eye said, "As a second sniper point." ”

"Good. ”

Lin Rui nodded, "However, it is likely that they will use the BTR-90 Rostock armored vehicle to transport Faisal." And there are several BMP-3 infantry fighting vehicles as protection. It's not easy to shake it up. Park Dong-sang, is there anything you can do?"

"It's still the old way, with IED roadside bombs. ”

Park Dong Xiang said.

"Are you alright? Blow up an armored combat vehicle with an earthen roadside bomb?"

Sergei frowned, "Will this work?"

When it comes to roadside bombs, many people may not think so, thinking that they are just like the guerrillas in the past.

But roadside bombs are far from simple.

Generally refers to improvised explosive devices, or "ImprodExplosis" in English

, abbreviated as IED.

The two biggest characteristics of this kind of bomb are that it is simple to make and powerful, and it is a typical way of modern asymmetric warfare.

This kind of bomb originated in World War II and gradually developed in the Vietnam War, so that the US military has begun to suffer a lot.

By the time of the Iraq war, it had reached its peak.

This is because the anti-American forces in Iraq cannot directly confront the US military, so they have thought of the not too old trick of roadside bombs, and they have improved through the old and innovated.

Roadside bombs are not regular military mines, and there are no regular manufacturers, and they are often assembled by anti-American militants because of their ugliness.

Some of them added detonating devices to shells that did not explode, while others concentrated explosives obtained from various sources.

In order to enhance the lethality of the explosion, iron nails and steel balls will be added, and roadside bombs for vehicles will be modified in the shape of the projectile body while increasing the amount of medicine, and even metal cones with meltable metal cores will be added to become homemade armor-piercing bombs.

There are also more powerful upgrades, such as adding liquid chlorine to roadside bombs, which becomes a chemical weapon.

Roadside bombs can be detonated in a variety of ways, the simplest of which is the same as traditional landmines, using a pressure plate and a trip rope, and when a vehicle or person touches the pressure plate or trips over the rope, the bomb will explode when it is connected to a primer.

Of course, the militants will also keep pace with the times, using a large number of civilian electrical appliances, such as mobile phones, BP machines, washing machine timers, automatic garage door remote control devices, etc., as remote control detonators, and magnetic infrared and other detonation methods also appear from time to time.

Civilian armed forces of all kinds are often very innovative in this regard.

"It sounds like this ******** is unlikely to blow up an armored vehicle. But I can tell you that Israel's 60-ton Merkava main battle tank and the 66-ton American M1A2 main battle tank have both been bombed by roadside bombs. A big guy like a main battle tank can't withstand a roadside bomb, let alone an ordinary armored personnel carrier or flesh and blood. ”

Park Dongsang shrugged and said, "Actually, there is only one secret, overcharging." ”

"Overcharge?"

Lin Rui frowned.

"In order to be effective, we often use explosives that exceed the normal amount by several times. This will lead to a very powerful explosion, unless a special explosion-proof vehicle with a V-shaped chassis is used, there is no solution at all, even if it is a main battle tank. ”

Park Dongxiang said slowly.

"In Afghanistan, July 2009 was called the Bloody July by the US-British coalition forces, because in just one week from July 13 to 20, 30 US troops in Afghanistan were killed, and 22 British troops in Afghanistan were killed, and almost all of these 52 people were killed by roadside bombs." You must know that in the entire Gulf War, less than 150 US troops were killed, and the number of people killed in roadside bombs in a week reached one-third of the number killed in a war, which shows the power of roadside bombs. ”

"Okay, I'll leave this matter to Park Dong-sang! I'm going to set up a lot of explosives on this section. Even if you can't blow their armored combat vehicles into the sky, you have to blow them out of those iron cans. ”

Lin Rui said in a deep voice.

As long as they come out, Yelena and Snake Eyes have a chance to kill Faisal.
