Chapter 973: Volunteers
Damascus, above.
Flying on a Bombardier CRJ700 standard regional airliner, Gao Yang and they had already arrived in the airspace of Damascus, and after arriving at the landing range over Damascus Airport, the co-pilot walked out of the cabin and said to Gao Yang: "Sir, the tower commander asked us to report our identities. ”
Gao Yang walked into the cockpit, took the intercom, and said in a deep voice: "This is a charter plane for the Special Mission, requesting landing." ”
After staying for a while, the voice of the control officer from the tower of Damascus International Airport rang out, saying, "Special Protection Mission charter flight, please wait, you will be talking to the others." ”
After a moment's pause, a deep voice rang out, saying, "Special mission, there are some temporary problems with our plans, please follow the instructions to land at the MEZZE military airfield, someone is waiting for you." ”
The pilot will land according to the guidance of the airport, Gao Yang exited the cockpit, returned to his seat, and said to the crowd: "There is a small problem, we will not land at the civilian airport, we should go to the military airport, where is there waiting for us." ”
Hearing that they were going to the military airfield, Jacclan and the other four pilots from Israel twisted in their seats uncomfortably.
A man with gray hair who looked to be at least sixty years old pouted: "I'm familiar with the Syrian airfield, but it's all for our attack, and it makes me feel amazing to hear that we are going to land on a Syrian military airfield." ”
The four pilots who came with Jachlan were sixty-two years old, and the youngest was fifty-five, all of whom had retired from active service. Younger. No one came.
Gao Yang had a headache. He was in dire need of pilots, but he couldn't recruit enough pilots quickly, so he had no choice but to find four very old veteran pilots through Guò Distin and Jaclan, whose skills and experience were the best of the best, but the problem was that they were from Israel.
Israel and Syria are old rivals. When the Israeli pilots arrived in Syria, God knows what will happen, so Gao Yang had to laugh again: "I must say again, guys, you all know where we are going, please keep your secrets." ”
An old pilot with gray hair snapped his fingers and said with an indifferent face: "Don't worry, we're not stupid, don't worry about us." ”
The plane steered, guided on the ground. Ended up landing on the runway of a military airfield.
When the plane came to a standstill, Gao Yang was the first to step out of the plane door. Then he saw an officer with the rank of captain saluting him excitedly and holding out his hand.
The first time I came to Syria, I was hired by Polovich, and then Satan fought in Syria, where he met Lieutenant Colonel Jihad, and Lieutenant Faisal, who also fought side by side, and Second Lieutenant Farouk.
At this moment, Gao Yang greeted them under the plane, Gao Yang looked like Farouk, but he was not sure, after a long time, Farouk was a little different from what he remembered.
Gao Yang returned a military salute, then shook his hand with the captain, and said with some hesitation: "I'm sorry, you're Second Lieutenant Farouk? Oh no, Captain Farouk?"
"Yes, it's me, Mr. Ram, we haven't seen each other for a long time, thanks to you, now I'm a captain, haha. ”
Gao Yang knew that after a big victory, several officers who fought side by side with them were expected to be promoted, and sure enough, in a short period of time, Farouk had changed from a second lieutenant to a captain, but Lieutenant Colonel Jihad, who had led troops to the rescue at that time, was even more amazing, because he had become a brigadier general.
From second lieutenant to captain, it is already very rare to jump twice in a year, but it is too rare to jump from lieutenant colonel to the rank of brigadier general.
Gao Yang had a smile on his face, shook Farouk's hand vigorously and said, "Congratulations, Captain!"
With a smile on his face, Farouk whispered in Gao Yang's ear: "If nothing else, I will soon become a major, and besides, Lieutenant Faisal is now a major, he will soon be a lieutenant colonel, and General Jihad, he is already a major general!"
Gao Yang was taken aback and said, "So fast?"
Farouk smiled and said, "General Jihad fought well, he was rewarded last week, and at the same time awarded the rank of major general. ”
A big victory, Gao Yang and they just cleared the obstacles to go home, but for Jihad, it became a ladder of success.
Gao Yang was sincerely happy, because the higher the rank of his ally, the better it would be for him.
Gao Yang was about to speak, but the two men in suits standing behind Farouk coughed lightly, took a step forward, and said softly: "Mr. Ram, I am from the Military Intelligence Bureau, there are some things we need to know first, please follow me." ”
Farouk shrugged his shoulders, let go of his raised hand, and chuckled, "Some necessary processes, it will be over soon." ”
After someone from the Military Intelligence Bureau reached out and made a gesture of please, Gao Yang followed them into the car, and then came to a hut next to the main building of an airport.
Gao Yang was not too worried, the people of the Military Intelligence Service were not hostile, as the largest intelligence agency in Syria, if the Military Intelligence Service was hostile to them, it would not be three people waiting to greet them at the airport, but a team of soldiers with loaded guns.
There was no sense of escort, and after the two men in suits got out of the car, they walked ahead of Gao Yang, knocked on the door of one of the rows of huts, pushed the door open, and motioned for Gao Yang to enter.
Gao Yang walked into the hut, there was a desk in the room, and behind the desk stood a middle-aged man in his forties.
"Hello, my name is the Military Intelligence Bureau, you can call me Dani, there are some questions that need your cooperation to understand, please take a seat. ”
Gao Yang sat in front of Dani, Dani reached out and opened the Wen Jiàn folder on the table, took out a pen, stared at Gao Yang, and said in a deep voice: "General Jihad said that there is a foreign volunteer army willing to help us fight the rebels, he greatly admires you, and strongly advocates providing you with the necessary help, I want to know, what is your identity." ”
The capabilities of the Syrian military intelligence are quite limited, to be honest, they are not very good intelligence agencies on the ground in the Middle East, and they are certainly far inferior to the Mossad, as a major country in the Middle East, they are not much better than the intelligence agencies in Yemen, but they have a very famous victory, that is, they captured the most famous spy in the history of the Mossad, Elie Cohen.
For the Military Intelligence Bureau, it is normal that Gao Yang's origin cannot be found.
Gao Yang thought for a moment, then looked up at Dani and said in a deep voice, "The rebels have a lot of sympathizers, and there are also a lot of supporters from abroad, right?"
"I have to admit, so. ”
Gao Yang waved his hand and said: "Then don't ask who we are, and don't check our old background, you just need to know that we are your supporters, we are allies, we have common enemies, what you just said is very correct, we are volunteers." ”
Dani smiled bitterly and said, "I can't write this into the transcript of the conversation, as an intelligence officer, I understand everything you say very well, but this report has to be handed over to the military high-level for reading, so you have to give me an official reply." ”
Gao Yang sighed and said, "Isn't this okay?
Dani looked at Gao Yang and said with a nonchalant expression: "For example, you are entrusted by a certain country to help us, Russia, or Huaxia?"
Gao Yang immediately shook his head and said, "No, no, we are allies, but don't let us carry undue burdens, sir, this is not good." ”
Dani was silent, and Gao Yang continued: "Sir, we have a strong combat force, I think General Jihad should tell you about this, it's not that I'm bragging, there aren't many of us, but we can bring the most lacking vertical strike capability in Syria at the moment, so don't care where we come from, isn't it good to have multiple allies?"
Dani sighed and said, "Okay, you are volunteers, but you have to give me a convincing reason, right? Mr. Ram, you are from abroad, although General Jihad has tried his best to ensure that you are friends, but we represent a country, from the military to the government to meet your demands, you have to give me a reason to convince others, believe that you are here to help us, not with some kind of malicious thoughts, you see, the way I sit down and talk to you at the moment should be very good proof of our sincerity." ”
Gao Yang thought for a while and said: "That's the case, we have a grudge against a certain rebel army, this is a personal grudge, and it is also a fact, and we happen to be very strong, so we have become allies, you need to fight the rebels, we also need it, it's as simple as that." ”
Dani nodded and said, "Okay, it's very simple, but it's also a very convincing reason, then I think you are volunteers, whether you want to or not, we have to publicize it like this, of course, your image and name will be kept absolutely secret, since we are allies, we will not do anything to hurt you." ”
Gao Yang nodded and said, "Thank you." ”
"How many of you are there?
Gao Yang shrugged his shoulders and said, "No, there are many more, we are just the vanguard, there are still people behind, they will arrive tomorrow, and the specific number will be known tomorrow." ”
After Dani quickly wrote a lot on the text clip, he closed the text and said with a smile: "Very good, we need to keep the connection open, so we have someone who will be stationed here, by the way, I haven't told you yet, from now on, this airport is your base in Syria, and this room will be your office from now on." ”
After speaking, Dani stood up and smiled at Gao Yang, "Syria needs friends, Mr. Ram, thank you for joining our just war as a volunteer!" (To be continued......)
