Chapter 2106: An Unexpected Discovery
The valley seemed to be a heavily guarded gate, with a hilly area behind it. After Lin Rui and the others bypassed this group of militants, they advanced smoothly. Along the way, there were no extremist patrols, let alone a large number of enemy troops, even if there were traces left by them. When it was dark, they reached the predetermined area and took refuge in a not-so-dense wood.
Lin Rui's face was heavy, and he became even more worried when he approached the extremist activity area. He didn't encounter any patrols along the way, couldn't find many traces of the group's passing, and couldn't see the vegetation that had been damaged by the troops' passing, all of which showed that there was no major force activity in the area.
But according to the U.S. military, the village is a large village with a group of thousands of extremist militants. This includes local militants, as well as militants who have been withdrawn from other Iraqi provinces. And it has heavy armament such as on-board rocket artillery. This means that they are numerous, and it is impossible for them to be so quiet.
Lin Rui looked up at the sky that was not yet dark, beckoned to gather the team members, and whispered, "The situation is a little wrong, this may be a trap." It's just that I don't know if this trap was given to us by the Yankees, or by these Iraqi extremist militants. In short, we may have been fooled. ”
"I don't feel right. It stands to reason that there can't be only so few people here. Snake Eye used his binoculars to observe the movement of the village of Aita in the distance, and replied in a low voice.
"Oh no, we've been tricked by Mr. K. Damn the Yankees, we shouldn't trust the CIA. They never tell the truth what they have. Sergei pouted. When he thought of Mr. K, he was very unhappy with this mission.
Lin Rui didn't care about his expression, and continued: "We can't rest anymore, we must send someone to search the nearby area. Before it gets dark, figure out the situation!"
In the faint light, he looked at the map and said, "Boss, I see it like this." We will now move in the direction of the entrance of the village, and the rest will be hidden outside the entrance of the village, and only one reconnaissance group will enter. The terrain in that area is relatively gentle, and the militants have heavy artillery and motor vehicles. Therefore, that position should be the main route for them to come and go, and personnel will come and go more frequently, even if there are guards, they will not be too vigilant. ”
"I'll go with the chief!" Crazy Horse whispered as he took a sip of the kettle and wiped his mouth, "We both know Arabic and are not easy to be seen. If you really don't have anything, you can take the risk of catching someone and asking back. ”
The chief nodded as well, reaching out to wrap his turban around his face. This time, they were all dressed in camouflage uniforms without any logos, and their heads and faces were covered with Arabic headscarves. Coupled with the fact that he speaks Arabic, he is almost indistinguishable from those extremists. Both men were armed with sharp daggers and M9 pistols equipped with mufflers.
In fact, they don't like this standard pistol of the US military very much. Because mercenaries are generally lazy, the weapons and equipment that are a little squeamish and need to use their brains have always been not praised.
They also like stupid and stupid equipment, because this is what the mercenary squad needs, and they come up with the concept of an offensive pistol, in which the first shot of the pistol is often the last fire in battle, so one shot is the most important. And this M9 pistol relies on a large magazine, anti-aircraft fire to maintain the level of firepower.
And the mercenaries are even more disgusted with 9mm bullets, and in their opinion, body armor can also protect against this kind of bullet. Their idea is simply that the bigger the caliber, the more just, and the thicker the sleeve, the more revolutionary. 9mm bullets, that's a sissy thing, fuck it...... However, this time the weapons were provided by the US military, and although they did not have a choice, they never stopped complaining.
The mountain march has a poor line of sight, and both Crazy Horse and the Chief are within good line of sight of each other. The woods were quiet, and the thick fallen leaves rustled beneath their feet. Less than 600 meters ahead, Crazy Horse, who was acting as a spearhead, suddenly knelt down on one leg, raised his hand to signal to stop advancing, and pointed vigorously in his direction. The chief immediately crouched down and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?"
"There's movement, stop moving!" said Crazy Horse's eyes staring straight ahead of him.
"I seem to hear something, too. The chief whispered, "Don't move, I'll go up from the side and see!"
The two men alternately covered and rushed forward with guns, and they only walked a hundred meters, and a few behemoths vaguely appeared in the dark and secluded woods, and it seemed that there were still in the back, the chief raised his binoculars and looked at it, and said in a low voice, "Don't move, it's an artillery position." Damn, we're really lucky. This is an artillery position for extremists. ”
"Artillery positions, do you see clearly?" said Crazy Horse, in a low voice.
"See clearly, there are at least four vehicle-mounted rocket launchers. There are also many more small trailer-mounted rocket launchers. There were also several 152 caliber guns on the right side. This configuration can be regarded as an artillery battalion. The chief whispered.
Crazy Horse rolled over and prostrated over, holding a telescope and looking, "I understand, they were afraid of the Iraqi government air raids, so they hid the artillery here." Because it is located in a hollow, surrounded by woods, and is not in the town, it is easy to camouflage and conceal. I saw that there was no back, it was all tents. Damn, there are at least a hundred of them here. Hmmm, no! These guys are here in the way, and I'm afraid it's going to be harder for us to get into the village. Because of such an important artillery position, the perimeter is heavily guarded. ”
"What then?" said the chieftain.
"Tell Rick to come over and let them see how it goes. Crazy Horse whispered.
After Lin Rui and the others received Crazy Horse's message, they led people to their location. After observing it with a telescope, Lin Rui said in a low voice, "This is really a surprise, we came to save people, but we accidentally bumped into their artillery position." ”
"I'm afraid that's not good news for us. Crazy Horse whispered, "They're hiding so hidden, then there must be a tight guard from here to inside the village." I'm afraid it's not going to be easy for us to get in. ”
"I think this is our chance. Jiang Jian said in a low voice.
"What?" Lin Rui frowned.
"Come to think of it, why didn't we think they had an artillery position here?" said Shogan in a low voice. "We all thought that their artillery was hidden somewhere in the village, but we did not think that they were hiding in the woods outside the village.
Because the biggest problem is that artillery is different from other arms of the army, they are very dependent on transportation. There is no road from the village to here. So no one would have imagined that these artillery pieces would appear where there are no roads at all. ”
