Diego Garcia Island is the largest and southernmost coral island in the Chagos archipelago in the central Indian Ocean. With a population of about 3,500, the island is a V-shaped coral atoll open to the north, with a central lagoon that is 24 kilometers long and 6.4 kilometers wide.

It is a military base leased by the U.S. military from the United Kingdom, and it is also an important naval and air base of the United States in the Indian Ocean. A modern arsenal and communications center were also built. A military force of about three thousand people was stationed throughout the island. Among them, there are about 1,700 military personnel, including officers and men of long-range bomber units and naval nuclear submarines, and 1,500 civilian personnel, mainly carrying out non-military combat missions.

Originally, only fifty of the troops on the island were British soldiers. However, due to special circumstances, several more British ** ships were berthed here than in the past. In the information war room on the island, it was noisy. Many soldiers are busy, but it seems that Lin Rui and others are lazy and idle.

Sergei's injuries have not healed yet, but that doesn't stop him from drinking. Zhao Jianfei had been half-lying on the sofa, playing cards with a few brothers around him. Lincoln is whistling at a female American soldier in charge of communications. The mercenary was holding a cigarette in his mouth and shouting, and it was almost a miasma. Until a U.S. military in charge of liaison invited them to the tactics room.

"Gentlemen, I think we've locked the ship's course. A beautiful ** man said in a deep voice, "They will pass to this location tonight, which is the approximate route we have drawn according to the satellite navigation." Although they have now abandoned satellite navigation in order to get rid of tracking, this will be the way they must go, and the mission will be scheduled for 9 o'clock in the evening. ”

"I hate working night shifts. Sergei shrugged.

"Nobody likes it, but what else can you do here?" Zhao Jianfei shrugged, "Quan should go out to find a pastime." ”

"It's not a pastime, they're very dangerous. The liaison officer of the British army frowned, "In order not to be discovered, we will use the method of ambush in advance." The sortie was the latest tactical attack nuclear submarine of the British Royal Navy, the Astute-class nuclear submarine.

Although the Astute-class hull is also equipped with acoustic tiles that block noise and reduce the echo of the enemy's active sonar, it is still no match for the Zumwalt-class destroyers. So you have to try to avoid being discovered, dive in silence, and wait for that ship to pass by. Guys, this is not a joke. ”

"Don't worry, sir. My people look loose, but they're absolutely scared of death. Lin Rui shrugged and said, "The last way we want to die is to be sunk underwater in an iron can." So they know what to do. ”

The British commander smiled wryly, "I hope so." Once we get to the right place, we'll get you out of the torpedo tubes. You must wear breathing gear, put on your oxygen mask, hang a small oxygen tank on your abdomen, enter the torpedo tubes in turn, and lie on your side.

We'll turn off the torpedo tubes and start pressurizing the tubes, and when the pressure is equal to the water pressure at the torpedo outlet, you can creep and crawl to the torpedo tube outlet. Crawling in a narrow pipe filled with water and dark and airtight is not only a test of escape skills, but also a higher psychological demand. You'd better be ready. ”

"God, I don't think Sergey will have any pressure on this. The only pressure he had was when he was lying on top of the girl. Just like last time...... before Crazy Horse could finish his words, he was put down by Sergei, and the two scuffled.

Lin Rui shrugged his shoulders and said to the stunned British military liaison officer, "You can ignore them, by the way, we are all familiar with these basic routines." For frogmen to fight underwater, we are not rookies. But Sergey may be a virgin, so he may be more stressed with girls. ”

The mercenaries burst into laughter.

"Okay, okay. Guys, can't you have some grace, this is a heroic ** official. Can you show your gentlemanly side?" Zhao Jianfei also came to join in the fun, but his deliberately pretended British accent almost made the British ** official collapse.

"Okay, okay, don't make a fuss. Lin Rui smiled and waved his hand, "Please forgive me, Mr. Captain, my people are used to maintaining a relatively relaxed state of mind before the operation begins. I wonder if the other tools are ready?"

"Tools?" the Englishman was stunned.

"Oh, I mean weapons, or dinner guys, whatever you think. Lin Rui gestured.

"It's all ready, the short M4 and M16 you need, tactical grenades, melee pistols, remote-controlled explosives, thermite that can quickly melt iron plates. And underwater thrusters, you know we can't get too close to their ships. You can only be released from a distance, and then you have to carry these weapons and equipment to complete the underwater assault. The British ** official looked at them and said.

Lin Rui nodded, "Okay brothers, you all heard what he said clearly." After going up, follow our original plan. Try to use the method of submersion, infiltrate the ship, and first control the cockpit and communication control room. Take down the person in charge of the boat, and then control the whole boat. This is the best way.

But if something goes wrong, we have to change our approach. Managed to destroy the power system with explosives, so that the ship was forced to stop. Then control the zhì combat weapons control zhì room, don't let these bastards fire missiles indiscriminately. Try to get as close as you can with them, because all they rely on is this advanced ship. Close clashes on ships, they are not our opponents. ”

"According to intelligence, they should be in the hundreds. The British ** officer frowned and said, "I don't think we should underestimate their combat capabilities." ”

"I don't want to belittle them, but honestly, these people are not fighters, they are just sailors. They may be able to operate a computer with precision and fire missiles hundreds of kilometers away. But they may not have the courage to face us face to face at close range. Lin Rui said lightly, "A real warrior is one who has seen a lot of blood and death. ”

The British ** official was speechless for a while. True, modern warfare has become increasingly distant from the battlefield. The creation of long-range missiles and tactical drones has turned brutal combat into a computer game. You don't need to be gritty, as long as you can push the button. This is a triumph of technology, but a sorrow for the warriors.

The British ** officer looked at these bohemian mercenaries, and his heart was not good for a while. He didn't know what these tiger-like men would be like if they boarded the ship, maybe it would be a very direct killing. These people seem to have no restraints, but they can be the most thorough warriors.

Lin Rui looked at his watch, "Now let's start resting for five hours." His words were executed to the letter. These mercenaries may be undisciplined, but absolutely obedient to orders. That's because those who don't obey orders don't live long on the battlefield.
