Chapter 51: Airborne

"Don't be depressed, old bean! I've found something interesting. Steelhammer grinned.

Chen Xindao: "What is it?"

"Wait, I'll show you. ”

On the right side of the photo are three rows of neat simple tents, and on the left side is a row of simple houses built with light steel skeletons and composite color steel plates, on which more than ten air conditioners can be seen.

Underneath the tents and bungalows is a large open space neatly parked with dozens of construction vehicles and two U.S. Marine Corps V22 Osprey tiltrotor helicopters.

Chen Xin was stunned and asked, "Where is this?"

"The camp of PetroChina Great Wall Exploration Company on the shore of Lake Albert in Uganda is where your father-in-law works. This photograph was intercepted by me while the Chinese military was transmitting data through the Tianlian-1 relay satellite, and the photo was taken 20 minutes ago. ”

Chen Xin frowned, the U.S. military's V22 helicopter appeared in the camp of the Chinese company, and then thinking about the U.S. military's change not long ago, the reasons behind the hostage incident may be much more complicated than he imagined.

Just as he was about to ask Gangyi to find more intelligence for reference, suddenly shouted: "Lao Dou, the General Staff is looking for you over there!"

On the light curtain of the glasses, the satellite photo quickly zoomed out and disappeared, and the TT software dialog box popped up, and a line of words appeared on it.

General Staff (Peng Guochen): "Hello, I am Peng Guochen of the General Staff Headquarters, and I hope to have a direct dialogue with the leaders of your bureau and discuss important matters. ”

Chen Xin was stunned, holding his chin with one hand, the Intelligence Department of the General Staff found himself at this time, this matter is worth playing, he said: "Hello, I can represent the war situation with full powers, what is the matter?"

The voice input software directly converts his words into text and displays them in the TT dialog box.

General Staff (Peng Guochen): "Presumably your bureau already knows about the hijacking of Emirates Airlines flight QR750, because our liliang in Uganda is relatively weak, I hope to find out the real culprit behind the hijacking with the help of Liliang of the war situation, I don't know if your bureau can accept such an order, of course, the price is negotiable." ”

"Old Bean, moneyβ€”moneyβ€”we've got money again." ”

Chen Xin pursed his lips, ignoring the noise of the steel hammer, as soon as he mentioned money, this guy's IQ began to plummet.

But what does the General Staff mean by that, the hijacking incident actually allowed itself to make up a fictitious war situation to investigate, is it suspicious of the SFA?

Chen Xin thought for a while, rolled his eyes, and said: "You don't need to investigate this matter, because the matter is urgent, so our SFA people borrowed the Emirates passenger plane." But I guess there's more to your troubles, right?"

As he spoke, he asked the steel hammer to send the satellite photo of the camp he had just seen.

Inside the command post of a base in the capital.

The moment they saw the satellite photo, Chang Siwei, who was sitting behind Peng Guochen, stood up suddenly, they had just seen this satellite photo, but they didn't expect it to fall into the hands of the war at the same time.

Although Chang Siwei had also read the report of the intelligence department before, saying how powerful SFA's hacking ability was, after this personal experience, he felt that the intelligence department's assessment was not at all, and even exceeded.

Chang Siwei said: "Guochen, you get out of the way, I'll talk to him." ”

Soon, a line appeared in the TT dialog box on Chen Xin's glasses: "I am Chang Siwei, Chief of the General Staff of the PLA, and now I am negotiating with you on behalf of the Chinese military." ”

Chen Xin was stunned for a moment and said, "Mr. Chang, hello!"

Chang Siwei wrote: "Hello, I have seen the photo you sent just now. Now that you know the camp exists, you should also be aware of the importance of that thing. Now the Americans have occupied the camp, but they will not be able to get that thing out of the ground in a short time. During this period of time, neither our side nor Britain, France, Russia and other countries will easily let the United States succeed, and at present, France's troops in Africa have begun to be mobilized on a large scale. We hope to cooperate with you to stir up the situation, and no matter what, we must not let the Americans get that thing......"

Chen Xin was stunned by this large paragraph of text.

"I'm rubbing, it's really a big deal!"

He originally sent pictures just to deceive the other party, but he didn't expect to lead to so many things, and after carefully digesting it for a long time, he replied: "I'm sorry, Mr. Chang, the stakes are very high, I need to ask my superiors, I can't give you a positive answer now, zaijian!"

Chen Xin's avatar on TT dimmed, Peng Guochen turned his head to look at Chang Siwei and said, "Chief, this ......"

Chang Siwei waved his hand, with an unfathomable smile on his face: "Guochen, we just need to muddy the water, the battle is a very powerful Liliang, whether he knew about the existence of that thing before or not, now, do you think they will still stand by and watch?"

……………………

On Uganda's western border, the triangle at the junction of Mahindi District, Lake Albert and Mochison Falls National Park.

The arrival of the first wave of U.S. Marines broke the tranquility of the camp, and the Chinese in the camp had long been empty, and the row of vibrators and geophones were parked not far away. There are also large cranes, forklifts, crawler excavators, concrete mixers and other large-scale engineering equipment.

All of this equipment is mainly used for seismic exploration.

The so-called seismic exploration is a geophysical exploration method that uses the difference in elasticity and density of underground medium to infer the nature and morphology of underground rock formations by observing and analyzing the response of the earth to artificially excited seismic waves. Seismic exploration is an important means of geological prospecting for oil, natural gas resources and solid resources before drilling, and has also been widely used in coalfield and engineering geological exploration, regional geological research and crustal research.

If it weren't for the betrayal of the inner ghost, even if the professionals came, they wouldn't be able to see what kind of cats were hidden in this ordinary seismic exploration camp.

The Marines searched the camp carefully, and soon someone came to report the soldiers' findings to the commander, Colonel Patrick.

Colonel Patrick followed Lieutenant Brant to a simple board room, where there was a desk with a desktop computer, and further in, near the corner of the wall, there was a high-level iron bed, and on the other side was a dark hole, and two Marines were guarding the edge of the hole.

Patrick had Lieutenant Colonel Richard, the deputy captain, summoned, and after some discussion, Colonel Patrick, Lieutenant Brandt, and Sergeant Donald climbed down the ladder at the entrance of the cave with a high-powered hernia lamp.

Below is a hall of about sixty square meters, plastered with cement on all sides, with a pipe laid on top that is mainly used to bring fresh air underground.

The fan system had been activated, and Colonel Patrick could faintly hear the humming of the air as it moved.

Sergeant Donald shone around with a hernia lamp, and soon found a one-man hole in the opposite wall, and the three of them looked at each other and continued to walk down.

This underground passage was zigzag and winding, and after walking for about ten minutes, Lieutenant Brant couldn't help but say: "Sir, we have all gone almost a hundred meters underground, is this really what the Chinese spent ten months building?"

Patrick said: "The intelligence shows this, I used to see a video on youtube, the Chinese spent half a month to build a 30-story hotel, in the field of engineering they are always so incredible." ”

The three of them fell silent again, but it didn't take long for Patrick to feel the echo of footsteps become empty, and Patrick said, "It should be there soon." ”

After turning a corner, the front suddenly opened up.

The light of the hernia lamp pierced through the darkness and illuminated the cave, which was nearly a thousand cubic meters in size!

The scene in front of them instantly stunned Patrick, Brandt, and Sergeant Donald.

"Oh God!"

"Oh my God, what the hell is this!"

"Unbelievable! God, what did I see!"

The exclamations of three people rang out one after another in the cave.

Before the three of them could come to their senses, Lieutenant Colonel Richard's call rang from Patrick's headset: "Richard calls Colonel Patrick, Richard calls Colonel Patrick." ”

Patrick froze, turned on the headset and said, "Richard, I heard, what happened?"

Lieutenant Colonel Richard said: "Two C130H transport planes appeared in the sky, and four Mirage 2000s with the logo of the French army on them, **, they began to parachute, what are these French going to do!"

Patrick said: "Richard, order everyone to stay vigilant, I will go back immediately, you immediately contact the headquarters to ask for support!"

"Understood!"
