Chapter 50: A Surprising Turn
The Byrne 777 is the world's first large airliner to use fly-by-wire flight control technology, AR1NC629 a data bus that connects all electronics on a bus screwed together by only two wires, reducing the number of wire harnesses from 600 to 400 on the Boeing 767 and from 4,860 to 1,580 wire splices.
But even so, the dense variety of lines on the display screen still made the scalp of the thunderous movement observed 1,500 meters away tingle: the dense phobia patient will never be able to drive this plane! And except for Bei Shiliang and Song Jingang, who have great interest and talent in computing, everyone else has always stayed away from this kind of thing.
Song Jingang looked full of interest, and continued to tap lightly on the notebook, paying attention to checking the main line of the plane.
The keyboard of a military laptop is specially designed with a certain new material, which has good feedback and is comfortable to hit on it, but at the same time it is able to guarantee silence and does not make any sound.
Of course, what Song Jingang wants to check is not all the lines on the plane, in that case, it is estimated that it will not be enough for a whole day, not to mention that it is not what a special soldier should do, but the work of an engineer. He checked only a few of the most useful lines for power supply, lighting and video surveillance.
Song Jingang's inspection time was not long, but the hearts of all the team members hung in the air, and no one knew what was going on in the cabin, let alone what would happen in the next moment in the dark......
However, in the hearts of the team members, it seemed like a century had passed, until Song Jingang's voice was tried to suppress and sounded in the earphones.
"The main power supply line is faulty, the backup power supply line is normal, the lighting line is normal, and the video surveillance line is normal! Now, I'm going to turn the video to the cabin. β
"Three, two, one!" Song Jingang's countdown ended, and he let out a long breath, as if he was about to spit out the depression in his chest. Immediately afterwards, the picture in the cabin appeared on the "North Star" of each team member.
All overhead lighting in the cabin was turned off, only the emergency lights flashed dimly, and it was clear that several Terrorists did not want the cabin to be completely dark enough to notice the movements of the hijacked passengers, nor did they want the lights to be too bright to cause unnecessary trouble. The blackout flaps of all the portholes have been opened, so that no light leaks to the outside, and the outside world has no way of knowing what is going on inside.
But they could never have imagined that an elite special operations team was already infinitely close, and the vanguard of it had even infiltrated their core, and under their noses, they could see their situation at a glance!
In the economy class, nearly 200 passengers sat in their seats, looking tired, and they did not dare to come out, and in the cabin of Nuoda, there was no sound, only three terrorists armed with submachine guns, patrolling back and forth in the front, middle and back sections of the cabin.
Sugunar! Jabak! Huoshan!
"Clear!" Huang Xiwen snorted excitedly.
The video surveillance camera paused slightly at the economy class door, and a guy of medium stature attracted the attention of the players.
This person is not tall, wearing a round square white hat on his head, a thick beard, deep-set eyes, and a gloomy face, sitting motionless at the door of the cabin door kitchen and crew lounge, but the expression of the gloomy owl, the intermittent twitching of the corners of the mouth, and the unconscious small movements that are grasped and released from time to time tell people: This person is in an extremely nervous and anxious mood!
Buy and buy Eγ»Tihe! A fanatical member of the East Ukrainian organization, a notorious terrorist, the main executor of this hijacking!
Huang Xiwen made a gesture, Luo Haoran, Lang Tianyu came out of the grass with a gun, Bei Shiliang walked in the center of the team, holding a thermal imager to continuously detect, Huang Xiwen fell at the end of the team, while holding a gun on guard, while observing the picture from the "North Star".
The entire squad moved like a cloud of peers, quickly and silently approaching the plane hundreds of meters away.
Song Jingang in the cockpit continued to change the monitoring in the cabin and constantly check the target.
Whether it was Maimaijiang who was sitting there in a daze, or the three who were constantly patrolling, or the hijacked passengers in the cabin, they obviously didn't notice that the 12 video surveillance cameras distributed in the cabin were working alternately one by one, transmitting their positions, expressions, and movements hundreds of meters away.
"Target 1 has been discovered!" Just when the team successfully arrived under the belly of the plane, lurked in the shadow of the plane, and divided into two groups, preparing to enter the plane along the passage opened by Song Jingang and the dark clouds, Song Jingang's voice came from the headphones of the team members.
In the "North Star" screen, the image is clearly displayed.
In the 15th row of the cabin, next to the seat of the second aisle, an old man with big ears and gray hair appeared in front of the team members, which was the No. 1 target of this rescue operation: Cao Jingren!
To the surprise of the team members, in the previous picture, all the team members saw were frightened and tired faces, the hijacked passengers, after more than 20 hours of terrifying and painful suffering, some of them were glazed, some bit their lips and wept silently, and some of their heads were deeply rooted in their chests, motionless......
And this old man, who was old and gray-haired, looked gentle and calm but not angry, but his eyes were slightly closed, and he leaned on the headrest very comfortably and calmly...... Go to bed!
"It's really worthy of everyone who has gone through the wind and waves, this bearing, this psychological quality ......" Lei couldn't help but sigh in admiration.
In the corner of the picture, on the left side of Cao Jingren, a middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes is leaning against the porthole where the visor is lowered, his eyes are spinning, and he is looking around-Chen Weizhe, an island independence element!
It was not until this moment that the hearts of the team members who chose to be in mid-air did they let go of most of them.
"Control circuit lights number one, follow me number four, front hatch, number two, number three, number five rear hatch, number six, cover!" Huang Xiwen issued a series of orders.
"Number One understands!"
"Number Two understands!"
"Number Three understands!"
β¦β¦
A series of reports sounded softly, and the figures of the team members, like swimming fish, quickly rushed into the plane.
Rear warehouse. Song Jingang had already turned on the emergency lights in the cockpit, leading to the gangway of the cabin, and made a gesture according to the dark clouds of gun alert, Luo Haoran and Lang Tianyu took advantage of the dim light to rush to the gangway one after the other.
Lang Tianyu squatted at the mouth of the gangway in a virtual step, taking over the position of the dark clouds, raised the muzzle of the gun, aimed at the circular top cover at the top of the gangway, and gestured to cover the dark clouds and Luo Haoran to climb up.
For the skills of the two people now, this gangway with a height of only more than 3 meters is like a fiction at all. With a gun in one hand and a slight stretch of his left hand on the edge of the gangway, his whole body flew up like a fallen leaf, and his feet were no longer standing under the roof without a sound.
Song Jingang, who has been paying attention to the movements of every team member in the small window of the military notebook, immediately turned on the video surveillance of the kitchen room at the rear of the fuselage and sent the signal to the "North Star" of the dark clouds.
After examining the picture of the "North Star" and listening carefully for half a minute, after making sure that there was no sound from above, and that there was no movement from within fifteen meters of anyone, he slowly, carefully, and without making any sound, lifted the unlocked cover, kicked his feet lightly on the gangway, rushed out of the cargo hold, and quickly swooped down on the door of the dining room, where he was from the blind spot of the observation line from the cabin.
Within ten seconds, Luo Haoran and Lang Tianyu rushed in one after another, hiding in a dark corner, on guard.
Luo Haoran stretched out his hand and gently scratched two long and one short three times on the throat microphone, indicating that the team members were in place, and after a while, Huang Xiwen's "standby" instruction came from the earphones.
At this time, Huang Xiwen and Bei Shiliang had successfully passed through the first class and business class, hidden behind the hatch. Just wait for Song Jingang in the cockpit to determine the target one by one, and he can launch a thunderous strike at any time.
"Zero, there's a situation!" The sound from the earphones made Huang Xiwen's heart tighten, and sure enough, Song Jingang's voice was a little surprised, and also a little anxious: "The cabin has been checked, and the second target is ......" Song Jingang hesitated for a moment and said: "Not in the cabin, and James Sam is not there!" β
There was a "buzz", and each team member's scalp couldn't help but tingle.
At this moment when the final decisive blow is about to be delivered and the dawn of victory is ushered in, this news is nothing short of earth-shattering! Are you kidding? After a lot of hard work and difficulties, you see that the task is about to be completed, but at this time someone tells you that your goal is ...... Non-existent?!
If Shui Yaoxian can't be found, even if he succeeds in killing every terrorist on the plane, even if he successfully rescues Cao Jingren and nearly 200 passengers, for this operation, for the Angry Dragon Brigade, the most elite unit of the Republic, it will undoubtedly mean failure, which is an absolutely unacceptable result for every team member!
"Confirm again!" Huang Xiwen lowered his voice to a minimum, and almost said these four words with a few intermittent air currents, but they were like a drum hammer, hitting the hearts of each team member.
In the sound of the team's banging heartbeat, Song Jingang changed his leisurely appearance, and his hands slid rapidly on the computer keyboard.
10 seconds, 15 seconds, 30 seconds, one minute...... The time became so long and tormenting, and two minutes later, Song Jingang's voice sounded again with a hint of frustration: "Confirm, the target is not there!" β
Damn it! Huang Xiwen pinched himself hard, only then did he resist the urge to scold, and gestured at Bei Shiliang, who stared at the long-range thermal imager tightly, his eyes did not blink, and after a while, he slowly shook his head.
Huang Xiwen Khan came down and hissed: "Five! β
Seeking verification from Lei Dong and relying on the special ability of Lei Dong's "humanoid radar" to find the whereabouts of Shui Yaoxian is already Huang Xiwen's last hope.
But that glimmer of hope was soon dashed.
Less than three seconds passed, Huang Xiwen received a report from Lei Dong.
"Ten kilometers in a radius, no ...... found"
