Chapter 487: Escort Mission
"Oh, they, they were sent out last week to do a transport escort protection mission, and it's been four or five days, so they should be back soon." The earth dog has been here for two months, so before the red dragon came, although he and the sky wolf also had some mustard, but they were not so strict, and the earth dog was still a member of one of them who besieged the panda last time.
"Four or five days?" Yun Tian nodded, it seemed that it would not be long before he could see them, and at this moment, footsteps sounded behind him.
Yun Tian turned around and saw that the person who came was the red dragon, and he also saw Yun Tian with the dinner plate, and after a slight pause, he still walked over, put down the dinner plate, and sat directly opposite Yun Tian.
"We'll have a meeting after dinner." After the red dragon just said a cold word, he began to bow his head to eat, and the originally harmonious atmosphere was also announced after the arrival of the red dragon, Yuntian They didn't speak again, they just began to eat with their heads down, and now everyone wants to know what task they will receive.
In the barracks of the Flying Tiger Company, the red dragon stood there, this time they needed to carry out a new mission, like the pandas, they were also responsible for escorting and escorting, and this time the goal was to go to the construction site four hundred kilometers away and send them supplies and supplies.
The construction site is located between the tenth base and the eighth base, forming an angle position, the construction site is in full swing to catch up, and this construction site is naturally in charge of the engineering corps, including a lot of Chinese construction teams, so Colonel Cachar hopes that the first person will escort this material.
This escort mission is simple and simple, that is, to send four trucks of supplies safely to the construction site to complete the task.
But it's not easy, because on the way, you have to pass through two areas occupied by extremists.
Although there are patrol vehicles passing by on this road all the time, there is no guarantee that there will be ambushes and sneak attacks, after all, this supply is a very good thing for those militants.
"This time we will be in charge of the escort mission, everyone will immediately prepare their weapons and leave in an hour." Red Dragon gave an order, and together with Yun Tian, Niu Boyu and Tang Xi, a total of twenty-three people were jointly responsible for this escort mission.
"Yes!" There was a kind of excitement in the uniform answers, and it was wonderful to finally not have to be locked up in this high wall every day, so everyone immediately began to put on their bags, and then thought about walking to the arsenal next to the command post.
According to the regulations, all weapons are managed in a unified manner, so in the arsenal of the base, different national warehouses are also divided, but the procedures for entering and exiting the warehouse are handled by computers.
The procedures are cumbersome, but this is also to ensure maximum safety in the base where people and snakes are mixed, and the guards are all Mi soldiers, and soldiers from other countries basically do not use firearms on weekdays.
After going through the formalities, everyone began to grade the firearms they had applied for, Yuntian was naturally still a ninety-five automatic rifle, equipped with a Type 03 red dot sight, five magazines, and three grenades, and the sheep's horn dagger in the yin and yang thorns was given to Pan Yao, but the fish intestine sword had been following him, so he was not receiving the bayonet.
Niu Boyu applied for the Type 95 light machine gun, compared with the bulky QJY88 general-purpose machine gun, the Type 95 light machine gun is more lightweight, the 5.8 mm caliber is not small, and the ammunition is four 75 rounds of fast-loading drums, three grenades plus a military dagger, and his weight is not light.
As for the sniper Tang Xi, she is still holding her favorite QBU88 sniper rifle, 5.8 caliber, which can use the same type of ammunition as Yuntian and Niu Boyu, and also ensures a more sufficient bullet match, four magazines plus 92 pistols, and three people can be regarded as having applied for their own firearms.
After registering and walking out of the ammunition depot, the three of them immediately began to disassemble and inspect their weapons, which is a habit to ensure that the accuracy of the firearm is minimized, and at the same time replace the first bullet in the first magazine with tracer rounds, if there is a real situation, the first shot allows them to quickly adjust the shooting deviation.
When they finished checking, the red dragon had already walked out, but he didn't expect him to take a sniper rifle as well, it turned out that he was still a sniper.
"Yo, sniper, isn't this for you?" Niu Boyu patted Yuntian on the shoulder, these two people are obviously incompatible, and now it seems that even the tactical position is different, the assaulter is really interesting against the sniper.
"Okay, don't talk nonsense, you come and drive." Yun Tian didn't want to say anything, although he also saw the red dragon's provocative gaze, the task was imminent, and the three of them immediately came to the front of the convoy to gather, and soon all the personnel were also applied.
A total of twenty-three people came to escort six trucks, according to the requirements of the red dragon, each car had two fighters in charge of guarding, and in addition to him, there were two snipers, so this time in the formation of twenty-three people, there were a total of four snipers and eight machine gunners, and the rest were all assaulters.
After the escort personnel of the truck were assigned, three US military Humvees were also parked there, and the military Humvees with fixed machine guns were very strong, but they looked so imposing.
"I'll take the lead, Zhu Lin, you are in charge of the middle position, and the three of you will finish." In addition to the twelve escorts, the other eight people sat in two cars, and as for the last one, it was naturally handed over to Yuntian and the three of them.
"Report, Comrade Major, or I'll take the lead." After listening to the arrangement, Yun Tian was a little worried.
Although the people of the Flying Tiger Company are also iron-blooded men, they have no experience in fighting abroad, and it is too dangerous to let them take the lead, so it is better to leave it to him, after all, he has accumulated a lot of experience in several overseas battles.
"You mean that the people of our Flying Tiger Company are all rookies, and we will be finished without your Sky Wolf Brigade, right?" Yun Tian's request suddenly made the red dragon's eyes widen, and he spoke with a hint of anger, and as soon as he said this, Yun Tian was simply aimed at their entire Flying Tiger Company.
"Report, I didn't mean that." Yun Tian was helpless, he could only sigh, they were all Chinese people, he really didn't want to see any accidents happen, but the red dragon obviously would not accept his own construction.
"I tell you, I don't care how majestic you used to be, it's best to hold my tail between my legs here and obey orders." The red dragon frowned, glared at Yun Tianhou fiercely, and jumped directly into the car.
"It's really a dog biting Lu Dongbin who doesn't know the hearts of good people, and is kind enough to help you explore the way, you are still treated as a donkey's liver and lungs, why don't you step on a landmine and blow you up." Looking at the arrogant red dragon, Niu Boyu couldn't help muttering, but Yun Tian naturally scolded him again, they were all comrades-in-arms from their own country, how could they say such things.
Soon, after the formation of the escort convoy was completed, it finally left the base, and the six trucks were divided into two parts, one in front of the other and one behind each other, and in the middle there was Zhu Lin, codenamed Wild Boar, and the mobile defense of the three people, such a formation was indeed decent.
The gates of the base were closed again, and Colonel Cachar, who was standing in the headquarters, stood on the high wall, looking at the departed convoy, he seemed to be smiling, but he seemed to have no expression.
In the direction of their destination, there is not a road all the way, so they must enter the Gobi Desert after an hour, and at the same time, a dirt road can only be used again after a period of no man's land.
Sitting in the car, the red dragon looked at the map, there was a Gobi desert in front of him, there was really no scenery to speak of, the extension was rolling, the convoy was marching, and the first task they arrived on began like this.
On the death-like silence of the Gobi Desert, there is no trace of life, and the barrenness that cannot be seen at a glance makes people feel a sense of sadness, occasionally birds fly by, but most of the time, there are no creatures, this forbidden area of life, water is more important than gold.
But don't look at the appearance of this desolate, there is a lot of oil underground, which is why it will cause civil unrest, and even those militants have to rely on this oil to get money.
The lead car, Red Dragon, sits in the passenger seat, and constantly guides the way forward through the Guò satellite status system and map.
From time to time, report the specific situation to the headquarters, this escort mission is not considered dangerous, 400 kilometers according to their expectations, it will be possible to arrive at night, and when the time comes, after unloading the supplies, they can return, if they are a qiē shun lì, they can have dinner in the base the day after tomorrow.
"I'll just say why this kid wants us to be at the end, let's eat." In the tail car, Niu Boyu sat in the back seat, and his task was the machine gun.
The dust kicked up by the convoy in front of him would fall in through the round hole in the roof of the car, and Niu Boyu couldn't be lazy, so he could only keep being hit in the face by the sand, fortunately he was wearing sunglasses, otherwise he couldn't even open his eyes.
"Isn't it good, you can still be full." Tang Xi drove the car, and said with a smile without looking back, and they could only accept this helplessly as they followed the truck in front.
"No kidding, be careful to scout, we're going deep into the enemy zone now, and if we get into trouble, it's really trouble." Yun Tian, who was sitting in the co-pilot, was carefully looking outside all the way, and if this barren Gobi encountered an enemy attack, it would be very troublesome.
To make a long story short, on the way to the construction site, everyone always maintained a high degree of vigilance, after all, when they first arrived and went deep into enemy territory, danger was always with them.
Fortunately, there were no people along the way, even the birds were very few, and sometimes you could see the cottages hidden behind the hills from afar, which really made everyone feel novel, how could such a place be inhabited.
After crossing the Gobi and entering a brand new road, the speed of the convoy immediately increased, and they had reached their destination in the afternoon, two hours earlier than expected.
But that doesn't mean they can go back as they please.
