Eight o'clock in the evening.Georgian border region, Caucasus Mountains region, near Kazbegi.In front of an abandoned warehouse, two military SUVs came to a quick stop.Michelle, Mister, and Lilith walked briskly into the warehouse under the guidance of a Georgian special forces officer.The place has been cordoned off, the perimeter has been taken over by members of the special forces, the warehouse is very large, one side is full of equipment, one side has a long military marching table and chairs, one wall is hung with an LCD screen, and a dozen laptops are lined up on the long table below, and in front of each computer sits a technician from the Georgian military and intelligence services who is dividing up his own work."
Major, welcome to the Temporary Command Center."
He was greeted by Lieutenant Colonel Batri of the special forces of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Georgia."
Everything is ready tonight, our men have set up surveillance eyeliners around the location you provided, and now there is an iron bucket there, and the water will not be poured into it."
The lieutenant colonel was full of confidence, and while guiding the three to the surveillance screen, beckoning them to sit down at the makeshift long conference table."
The special forces of the Ministry of Internal Affairs already have two reinforced platoons of soldiers on standby, and the armored vehicles they are riding in are hidden in the mountains and forests near the target location, waiting for an order to be dispatched."
The more confident Lieutenant Colonel Battery looked, the more uneasy Michelle felt.The capabilities of the Georgian special forces were not so satisfactory, and although Michel did not work directly with them, he had previously seen their combat skills as an observer for the British during a multinational joint exercise."
Lieutenant Colonel, these people are not ordinary KB elements, they have all received strict military training, and they have a lot of battlefield experience, they are veterans of the battlefield, you must be cautious.""
Please rest assured.""
In the fifties, this was once a state-owned mine, and then it was abandoned after the ore resources were exhausted, but it was restarted during the Cold War, and the former Soviet military expanded the underground passage area of the mine into a hiding hole for storing wartime emergency supplies and weapons, but after the end of the Cold War, because of military spending issues, it was included in the scope of removal, and after the collapse of the former Soviet Union, the last troops left here and have been abandoned, and it has been nearly 20 years." ”"Here's the floor plan of the underground tunnel."
Battery put a copy of the plan in front of Michelle and Mister, "You see, although it is very secretive in the underground fortifications and can avoid aerial reconnaissance, it also has a disadvantage, that is, it has only two fixed exits, that is, if you control these two exits, you can block the other party in the tunnel." ”"What are you going to do?"
Michelle stared at the floor plan in front of him, still a little uneasy and asked, "Attack?"
”"We've scanned the tunnels for heat sources, but at the moment, there are no heat sources in many places, only the central areas—" Battery pointed to a spot in the center of the floor plan, "It shows infrared heat sources, because it's winter, and they have to keep warm even if they are hiding in the tunnels, so we can get the heat source signal from the exhaust holes outside." ”"They're all concentrated in the middle of the tunnel?"
Michelle asked.Lieutenant Colonel Battery nodded: "It seems so. ”"Explosives are very dangerous, so be careful when attacking.""
If they find out, the dog jumps under the wall, and it will definitely detonate all the explosives, and then I'm afraid the mountain will be flattened." ”"I've thought about that for a long time."
Batteri looked at his watch and said: "According to the timetable you have given us, the operation on the Vladi-Caucasus side began to infiltrate at 1 o'clock in the evening, and the convoy responsible for transporting supplies has already left the mine at 6 o'clock this afternoon, and it will only take six hours to drive from here to Vladi-Caucasus, and we will start the operation immediately when the three vehicles carrying the first batch of explosives arrive in Vladi-Caucasus." ”"That is, tomorrow at 1 a.m.?"
Michelle asked.Battery said, "Yes, if there are no accidents, it should be. ”"Well, it seems that you have thought it through, and you are more familiar with the situation here than I am, so I will not interfere."
Michelle's gaze was withdrawn from the floor plan and turned to the big screen.One of the pieces on the big screen is used for three-way connection with i17 headquarters and FSB, and it is not turned on at this time.Before leaving Grozny, Colonel Aleksandrovich had agreed with Michel that at 8:30 tonight, the three parties would set up a video communication line through the satellite channel to share the scene situation on the Vladi-Caucasus and Kazbegi side, and all the members involved in the operation tonight, whether it was the Russian "Alpha" anti-terrorist unit in Vladi-Caucasus or the Georgian special forces here, each member of the team would install a miniature camera on his helmet to transmit the scene of the action to the shared platform, It was provided to the commanders of the three parties as a reference for action.Michelle glanced at her military watch, the number of time was beating towards half past eight, and she gently propped her hand on the table and wiped her face vigorously.If you're lucky enough tonight, it's going to be a showdown between yourself and Ryuichi Kawasaki.…… North Caucasus.On the Mi-171 helicopter, Qin Fei opened his half-closed eyes.The huge cabin was dark, and the members of the "Alpha" team on the opposite side looked solemn, their eyes shining through the two holes in their hood-covered faces.Everyone knows what it means to fly in such a place, especially since recently illegal armed groups have acquired new Stinger missiles.These armed groups are like stubborn scabies on the skin of this country, which has been resurrected even after many blows, and of course this involves historical, religious, ethnic, and other reasons, and it is not at all possible to solve the problem in a moment."
Ten minutes to go!"
The commander of the "Alpha" on the Mi-171 walked from the entrance to the cockpit towards the tail section, and as he went, he raised his hands loudly and shouted: "Check your own equipment one last time!"
”Everyone began to check the equipment, Yushchenko and Qin Fei sat together, and the two of them did the final checks for each other.This time there was no intention of absolute, because if the plane was lowered to too low an altitude, it would be vulnerable to fire from the ground.However, it is not possible to use large transport planes to land in a high-jump or high-jump low-open way, because this is a mountainous area in the North Caucasus, and it is winter, and the snow is raging.The safest way to do this is to use a helicopter to dive into the mountains from a maximum ceiling of 5,000 meters, and then lower to an altitude of 500 meters to find the best landing ground for a low jump and low drive.This is the most flexible and safest way to do it.For this modified Mi-171SH transport helicopter with a saucer-shaped spoiler, infrared suppression coating, dual hydraulic control system, and bulletproof glass, the risk of being shot down by the latest Stinger missiles can be greatly reduced."
Qin, after entering an area where illegal armed activities are rampant, it will become very dangerous.""
I know, the colonel told me."
Qin Fei said: "There is one thing, I need you and the commander of the alpha group to immediately connect with the colonel, in view of this dangerous situation, he has something to announce to you." ”"What?"
Yushchenko was stunned."
It's a matter of secrecy, and for this operation, he and I have come up with a backup plan to let me tell you when we are about to arrive near the landing site, which is for secrecy."
Qin Fei said.Yushchenko's heart trembled.What is the backup plan that is so mysterious?
Can't even believe your own subordinates?
