Shogan frowned, "What's the matter? ”

"Nothing. Lin Rui shook his head, then took out a photo and said, "This is our contact person after we arrived in Afghanistan." Once he is found, he will take us to the Elder Ambrava in the southern province of Helmand. The Elder is the leader of one of the largest tribal forces in the region, and has always maintained friendly relations with our company. ”

"I know him, we've met. He was one of the few local elders who were more open-minded and willing to deal with outsiders without overt hostility. Very respected in the local area. On the ground, his words work better than the president. However, he is not friendly to the Russians. Sergei nodded.

"Yes, he is an elder elected by several armed factions in the area, and he has great power and is well-informed in their territory. The only thing he didn't like the Russians was that he had to do with the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan and the death of two of his young sons. So Sergey and Yelena had better not speak when they saw him. The old man is quite a stubborn man. "Shogan said slowly.

Sergei shrugged, but Yelena snorted coldly.

"We'll go tomorrow, U.S. planes. Dropped us straight to us and provided all the equipment. In addition, they promised to provide drone support as long as they were in Afghanistan. But if they are not in Afghanistan, they will not be able to provide assistance. Lin Rui said.

Crazy Horse whistled, "That's a good idea." Drones can provide reconnaissance information and, if necessary, some fire assistance. In this regard, the role of a drone is even comparable to that of a special squad of the US military. ”

"Haven't the U.S. troops already withdrawn from Afghanistan?" Yelena frowned.

"There are still about 20,000 U.S. troops in Afghanistan, the vast majority of whom are located at four NATO military bases in Afghanistan. The withdrawal of the United States is only combat troops, not the end of its military presence in Afghanistan. Crazy Horse shook his head.

"Yes, even after most of the U.S. troops are withdrawn, there will still be some 15,000 NATO troops, including U.S. troops in Afghanistan, whose main mission is to continue counterterrorism and train Afghan security forces. Shogishi nodded.

"Americans have a lot of tricks. Yelena sneered.

"Well, that's not what we're talking about in our tactical meetings, and we shouldn't laugh at employers. Lin Rui smiled. "Because of the presence of Afghan security forces, the vicinity of their base is relatively safe. However, the situation in the south is complex, with many tribal armed and military factions. We'll have to improvise then, understand?"

"Understood. The team members said.

"Alright, let's go back and get ready, and get a good night's sleep. Lin Rui got up and walked out of the tactical conference room.

Shogishi looked at his back with a twinkle in his eyes.

"Hey, actua, what are you looking at?" said Gungun, patting him on the shoulder.

"Nothing, I always felt like he hadn't said something. Shogishi frowned, "I don't know what it is, but I can feel it." Just now he wanted to speak and stopped, as if he was scrupling about something. ”

"There's nothing to be afraid about in this mission, it's just a rescue mission for the Yankees. Didn't we do much before?" Sergey said with a smile. "Although I am Russian, I love the Pentagon because it has prioritized my employment in the face of a recession. And the shot is quite generous. ”

"Hahaha!" Rose and Sausage laughed.

Lin Rui ignored them. There was something in his heart, and the question that Long Noon told him about the silver wolf Michelle had always weighed deeply on his heart. He didn't know what happened to the silver wolf, and if he was really safe as he said, then why did he avoid it like this?

Lin Rui shook his head vigorously and shook off these chaotic thoughts. He has to stay focused, at least in the middle of the task. He took a deep breath and turned to walk back to his room. He thought that with today's level of exhaustion, he would fall asleep quickly. However, this night, he stayed awake all night, and the ghost made a miracle wipe the gun all night.

The next day their water transport planes transported them to the base of the American army. And at the US military base, they will fly directly to Afghanistan. The U.S. military major who liaised with them at the base took them to the warehouse to select their weapons, a mission that was listed as one of the Pentagon's most important military outsourcing tasks.

Lin Rui actually did not have a good impression of American weapons, and he always believed that the Germans were the most sophisticated in the modern weapons industry.

Unfortunately, the Germans G36 rifle was equipped with an empty compartment hang-up, which left the bolt behind when the last round was fired or when the bolt was pulled by inserting an empty magazine. The empty compartment hang-up can also be operated manually, as long as the rear bolt is pulled and the protruding hook button in front of the trigger retainer is pushed upward, the bolt can be hung, and the heat dissipation in the chamber can be accelerated in the forward way after a large number of shots. When removing an empty magazine or replacing it with a loaded magazine, pull the lever back and release it to re-enter.

If you do not need the function of hanging up in the empty compartment, you can simply change the position of the hanging spring in the trigger group to make it non-invalid. But most people don't do that. For Lin Rui, who is accustomed to using M16 rifles, he doesn't like the empty compartment hang-up device that does not have the function of quickly releasing the bolt.

So when choosing weapons, he still chose the most modest M16. The American major smiled slightly, picked up an M4A1 and said, "Why don't you use the M4? It's shorter and more streamlined, and it's easier to react quickly." And fully automatic shooting, better continuity of firepower. ”

Lin Rui shook his head and said, "Your U.S. * team usually doesn't issue fully automatic M16 rifles. Although its recoil is already small, the front sight will still be offset by the burst of fire, which will make the fully automatic weapon very inaccurate and waste a lot of ammo. That's what I like the most.

The 30-round magazine is not suitable for continuous firing, unlike the belt reload system used in heavy machine guns. The barrel of the light class of the rifle quickly overheats in fully automatic fire. Theoretically, machine guns provide suppressive fire, while more mobile rifles surround and provide burst fire from the flanks.

Unless it is a modification of some M4 optimized for narrow area operations, it is suitable for fully automatic fire, as this makes more sense in narrow areas where space is limited. The ordinary M4 does not dominate in this regard. And we, unlike the regular troops, could not carry much ammunition. For me, the M16A4 is mediocre, but decent and adequate. ”

The U.S. Major nodded in amazement.
