Towama village is about 9 km east and 19 km from the Bo Kebbi mining camp.
The primary Kabia road to Freetown passes through here, and at night the road is darkened and there is no light.
The war lasted for nearly a decade, and although Sankoh, the rebel leader of the Alliance Front, was recently captured by British paratroopers in Freetown and forced to sign a cease-fire agreement, and there was finally a glimmer of hope for peace, very few people dared to go out at night, and the rebels and government forces of various forces became frightened birds, and the slightest disturbance would make them nervous, and it was easy to misfire.
Long Yun led the crosshairs, kings, poets, and men to lie on a small hill more than fifty meters away from the side of the road, where there were many hugging trees, and under the trees were a half-human-high weed, with good sight and good concealment.
A kilometre east along the road, there is a small village that has long since been deserted, and it is the temporary base camp of the rebels.
Lao Yu took the crosshair and the rest of the group to reconnoiter and check whether there were any discrepancies in the satellite pictures provided by the falcon.
Covering his wrists with a Kevlar helmet, Long Yun turned on the night light on his watch, and it was 12 o'clock at night.
Unlike the evening, now the sky is covered by dark clouds, the moon and stars are gone, there is no light around, there is no finger in sight, there are no pedestrians on the road, Long Yun is lying in the grass under the trees, looking around at the jungle that has become like a night, there is silence on the radio at this time, before the attack begins, there will be an accident, try to remain silent.
In the distance of the road, a faint light could be seen, which was a checkpoint set up by the rebels, and to enter the confines of the village, it was necessary to pass through the checkpoint, and if you went around, you had to climb over a cliff, which was very dangerous at night, and the slightest mistake could kill you.
The crosshair looked into the distance for a long time with the night vision goggles, and whispered: "This Kamala is not a fool, he will choose this kind of place to camp, it is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and he is quite discerning." ” Long Yun took the night vision observation goggles from his hand, and the checkpoint in the distance was clearly visible at a high magnification, and there was a heavy machine gun in the sandbag fortifications that had been temporarily piled up, and it could be vaguely seen that it was a Soviet-made DSHK, and a pickup truck was parked next to it, with a heavy machine gun on it, and several soldiers were walking back and forth.
In front of the checkpoint is a 30-meter-long and three-meter-wide suspension bridge, under which there is a cliff more than 30 meters deep, and at the bottom of the cliff is a river.
"It's quite discerning, not a straw bale."
Long Yun also agreed with the crosshair's statement, "This place is really a lot of work. ” Kamara was Sankoh's younger brother and had been following him for many years, Sankoh was not presumptuous in military affairs, he was a political opportunist who knew how to incite, and the revolutionary alliance front was built under the slogan of driving out the white capitalists and getting rid of exploitation, more like a spiritual leader.
Although Kamara is nominally the deputy commander, he has actually been in charge of the military power of the RUF rebels for many years, and he can be described as experienced in a hundred battles militarily.
In the second half of last year, Sankoh was captured by a British 8oo paratrooper in Freetown, but Camara escaped, and after half a year of negotiations, the two sides finally agreed to sign a ceasefire agreement, but the armed rebels under Camara's control never surrendered their weapons.
Recently, Kamala has become more active, stirring up trouble everywhere and constantly harassing government and British forces in Freetown.
"What" crosshair apparently finds it difficult to understand this awkward Chinese idiom.
Long Yun was speechless, and after thinking for a long time, he said: "Just stay here, and you can block the attack of hundreds of people by yourself." ” "Hmm" the crosshair seemed to understand and nodded: "That's what it means, you Chinese words are really difficult to understand." ” A motive sound came from a distance, and everyone looked vigilantly towards the source of the sound, only to see a few lights flashing in the distance, staggering towards this place.
It was already past twelve o'clock, and there was still a car coming.
Everyone's first reaction was that it was a rebel convoy.
The road conditions were not good, there were potholes everywhere, and it rained for several days in a row, and it was even more muddy, and the convoy was not fast.
Everyone unanimously pulled down the AN\VS7 night vision device on the helmet, and the sight in front of them suddenly turned green, but all the scenery suddenly became clear. 1,2,3,4,5 Long Yun silently counted the lights in his heart, and there were six cars, the front three were cars, and the back three were trucks.
"Ghosts, do you want to kill them," the poet licked his lips and was eager to try.
Long Yun slowly shook his head and said: "No, this place is too close to the rebel outpost, I don't know how many people are in the six cars, there is no way to guarantee that they have no power to fight back, as long as one person fires a gun, the rebels over there will be alert immediately." ” Tonight's mission is to infiltrate and raid, targeting the rebels' "Honey Badger" 2O and the Valkyrie rocket launcher, as long as the two things that pose the most threat to you are removed, the next day's sniper battle will take a lot of pressure off, and if you can blow up the ammunition depot, it will be the icing on the cake.
This group is now under the command of Long Yun, and everyone obeys the order and will gently lower the muzzle.
Two hundred meters One hundred meters When the convoy approached, everyone was surprised Leading the way were three British-made "6 Land Rovers" wheeled armored patrol vehicles "How is it the British army," the man's wife couldn't help but exclaim in a low voice.
"fuck" Long Yun scolded in a low voice, and secretly shouted in his heart What is the matter, how can there be a British army at this time, haven't they always been deployed near Freetown, how could they suddenly appear in the vicinity of Bocheng Town in the middle of the night, and swagger towards the temporary base camp of the rebels, do they have no intelligence instructions What to do, a layer of cold sweat broke out on Long Yun's forehead.
If the British army is allowed to break into the defensive circle of the Kamala rebel forces in a daze, the two sides will definitely fight, and it is not a matter of whether the British army dies or not, because after all, the ghost group and they are not allies.
But once the two sides start fighting, tonight's infiltration operation will be absolutely ruined "Ghost, do you want to go out and warn them" The crosshair also realized the seriousness of the problem, and in his opinion, he could only rush down the hill to stop the British convoy and alert them that there was a large rebel force ahead.
"Absolutely not," the poet quickly reminded: "Don't say that we are not allies with the British, even if they don't trouble us, they will listen to us, but just jumping out in the middle of the night, I don't know if these guys will shoot us, I don't want to be wronged." ” The convoy was still wobbly moving forward, and the distance was gradually shrinking.
Eighty meters Fifty meters The rest of the time can only be measured in seconds, and as long as the convoy passes, there is no chance of reversing.
"Crosshair, you shoot the tires of their first 6 patrol car right away, fire a few more shots, the tires of this car are filled with steel ribbons to prevent deflation, you have to machine gun fire in the same place, expand its perforation, so that it can stop for a short time" Long Yun gritted his teeth and made a decision, as long as the convoy stopped, it was better to find a chance to show up and explain it than to jump out suddenly.
He couldn't help but curse in his heart, these Brits, it's not good to stay in Freetown, and what are you doing in the middle of the night when you run out to stir up trouble The crosshair's finger rested lightly on the trigger, and the arrow in the scope attached to the left front tire of the first 6 Earth Rovers.
"Slow" Long Yun suddenly stopped in a low voice: "Don't shoot" He lifted the AN\VS7 night vision device on his head, snatched the night vision goggles of the front sight, looked at the convoy, and said softly: "It's not the British army, it's the rebels."
The crosshair lowered the muzzle of the gun and turned his head to look at Long Yun with a shocked expression.
Not only the crosshairs, but everyone was stunned and hurriedly carefully discerned from the night vision goggles.
"It's really not the British army" The poet looked at it for a moment and said, "It's the rebels" "Shit is really strange today" The man's wife said angrily: "Why did the rebels suddenly have so many strange equipment, why did they even have the equipment of the British army" The convoy was already under the highway and was about to pass.
"Crosshairs, shoot the tires of the last car right away" Long Yun gave an order at the moment when the convoy was about to be far away.
The crosshair raised his gun, and a night vision goggle was added to his telescope, and the last car of the convoy staggered slowly on the road, and had already passed the hiding place of the detachment, and drove more than 50 meters away. burst Despite the installation of silencers, the dull sound of gunfire is still clear in the quiet of the night.
The rebels' last truck was shot in the rear wheel, but it didn't seem to have much effect, although this one was not a 6-place rover, but it did have two rows of rear wheels, one was shot, and the other was able to hold on. burst In less than a second, the SG9O fired another shot, the dim fire of the muzzle obscured by the dense grass around it, and it was fleeting.
The last truck leaned to the left, and with a sharp "snort", a creak, the car braked
