Chapter 175, I know
There are always some things, in people's hearts, that are more important than money, such as shame, the shame of the country.
For the Cubans, the only place where they lost their rights and humiliated the country was the US naval base in Guantanamo Province, which was like a thorn in their hearts, always alerting them that even now, the Americans still do not intend to return this territory belonging to the Cubans.
Although it is ostensibly rental, this lease has completely changed its flavor after the word "permanent" is added.
Cubans are not at all times imagining that they will be able to get back this seemingly inconspicuous little place, even at any cost, and perhaps people wonder why they would be willing to pay such a big price.
In contrast, if Hong Kong and Macao are still in the hands of the British and Spaniards, it would be understandable, but it is a pity that Cuba does not have the strength of China, so it is destined to play against the Americans, and they can only let this thorn be deeply rooted in their hearts.
Canglong and Li Ruomo came to Guantanamo Province smoothly, in order to avoid the detection of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Cuba, they also went on a special trip, as if it was deliberate, Li Ruomo bought a lot of things, and naturally let Canglong carry it behind his back.
It wasn't until late at night that the two secretly left the hotel where they were staying, and at a Chinese company in Guantanamo province, they saw six snow leopards.
Sure enough, they are all professionals, compared to Canglong and the others, they are not so comfortable entering Cuba, and once they enter Cuba, they don't even have any time to go to Lang Fei.
Luo Weiguo, codenamed Hummingbird, first introduced the situation: "The dividing line between the base and Cuba is a highway, and there are mines buried on both sides of the highway, but the highway is open to cars and is under the management of Cuba, but this is almost a dead end, and if it alarms the Cubans, it is equivalent to alarming the Americans." ”
"Don't have any other useful clues?" The snow leopard grinned and whispered, hummingbirds are in charge of intelligence and always bring some surprises.
"The area around the road, in the territory belonging to Cuba, is a military exclusion zone set up by Cubans, but it is extremely difficult to get there, and permission must be obtained from the Cuban Ministry of the Interior. Cubans are not allowed to enter this military zone at will. Of course, military personnel working in the administrative area can, but there are two small towns in the military restricted area, and residents of the two small towns in the administrative area can also do so with their local identity cards. If the family is not in the administrative area but has relatives in the administrative area, the approval of the Ministry of the Interior is required to string relatives. Hummingbird said.
"So, we can get inside by getting the ID cards of the two small towns, but how can we get through the military restricted area full of landmines?" Shrimp was silent for a long time, and suddenly spoke, what he was thinking was also what Li Ruomo thought.
"Eagle, are you sure?" Li Ruomo suddenly asked Ma Wenbing, who was codenamed Eagle, only had a code name in the mission, and no real name.
The eagle shook his head: "What are you kidding, this is one of the largest minefields in the world, the Americans themselves are careful to go inside, and there are mines of any age inside, basically they are on the verge of exploding, and I don't know how many Cubans have buried outside, unless they are all detonated, you give me an identity and let me go to the platoon for a year, and I can't finish the platoon." ”
Several people were silent, this is indeed a line of thought, if all of them are detonated, it will completely alarm the Americans, and then their mission will be considered a failure, facing not only the CIA, but also the Cuban Ministry of Internal Affairs.
"What about the sea route?" Liang Xiaomo, who was codenamed Ghostly, suddenly asked.
"The Americans laid mines and blew up a large area, if you don't want to be a dead fish in the white flakes, you can try it." Hummingbird smiled.
"We only have two hours after being noticed by the Americans, and we have to evacuate in those two hours, otherwise we will be completely annihilated." Li Ruomo said in a deep tone, "And it is necessary to flee Cuba, although the Cubans have always been opposed to the Americans, but this operation is to rescue Omar, they are definitely not willing to carry a black pot for us, the biggest possibility is to catch us and hand it over to the CIA." ”
"This doesn't work, that doesn't work, are we really here for a vacation?" The snow leopard didn't have a good breath, "According to what I said, go straight in, evacuate to Jamaica within two hours, and then turn back to China." ”
"But who is in charge of bringing Omar back to China?" "And can you guarantee that the CIA won't be waiting for us in Jamaica?" This is Americans' backyard. ”
"No, we don't need to send him back to China, just take him out of prison and send him to Cuba, and he will naturally have a way to leave." Li Ruomo said that the purpose of this mission is just to let the al-Qaeda, which is now leaderless, have a leader.
In this way, the Americans can be overwhelmed, and with Omar's cunning, it is absolutely impossible to leave no way back for themselves.
So, the crowd fell silent again, and when faced with such a situation, they realized that this was simply an impossible task.
"Why don't you speak?" Li Ruomo suddenly looked at Canglong.
"I'm in charge of your safety, not the execution of the mission." Canglong's face looked like he had nothing to do with me, as if he was taking revenge for Li Ruomo's deliberate behavior today, "If it were me, I would advise you not to send him to death." ”
"What do you mean?" Li Ruomo's face turned cold, and several other people also looked at him, their faces were very bad.
"You can't succeed, even if you go in, who knows what's going on in the prison, the Americans have been operating here for so long, who can guarantee that people will be rescued within two hours?" Canglong said, glancing at them, "Even if you rescue people, who will give you advice, do you really think that a few people can break through the blockade of the US army?" When you retreat, you will be bombarded by the US Navy and take the Cuban road, even if the Cuban internal affairs forces are willing to help you, but the US Air Force is not vegetarian. ”
This passage is tantamount to pouring cold water on everyone present, obviously they think that Canglong is afraid before fighting, but what can be said is the truth, now it is a problem to even enter, let alone retreat, no one doubts that the US Air Force in the base will not swagger into Cuba to bomb them, because the Americans have done this less.
"But this mission is imperative, and we have no way out." Li Ruomo said in a firm tone.
"Then I can't help it." Canglong shook his head, and the people present suddenly fell silent again, Li Ruomo never thought that Canglong would pick on her so quickly, but she didn't blame Canglong, because this was indeed an incompleteable task.
However, she did not intend to give up just like that, but ordered: "Hummingbird, I need to get more specific information, about the mines inside and outside the base, the mines at sea, and even the details in the prison, Xiami, you are responsible for the hummingbird, you are responsible for preparing for the retreat, Eagle and Owl, you two are responsible for the supply of weapons and ammunition, and the meeting is now adjourned." ”
After a few people answered, they left the Chinese company, and in the end, only the snow leopard and Canglong were left, and Canglong still looked indifferent, but it was the snow leopard, and asked with a smile: "What about me?" ”
"You?" Li Ruomo's tone was cold, "In the future, I don't want to hear you say so much useless nonsense, your duty is to honestly learn how to shut up in this company." ”
After Li Ruomo finished speaking, he left the Chinese company directly, and the snow leopard looked at Canglong expectantly, as if to say, you beg me for mercy, but Canglong was silent, and when he walked to the door, he suddenly turned around: "Never speak ill of a woman, even if you think she can't hear it." ”
After speaking, he left, leaving the snow leopard alone pondering Canglong's words, and it took him a while to understand what Canglong meant, thinking of what he said to Canglong in the base, Snow Leopard understood why he had such treatment.
Two days later, when they reunited, the hummingbird got the exact information: "The minefield is not airtight, the Cuban traders told us that there is an underground passage to get close to the base, this is after the Cubans cut off the fresh water supply to the base, the passage has been running, although the Americans are not short of water, they are short of women, so"
The latter words, the hummingbird clicked to the end, because it is not important, but these words made the people here understand two truths, the first is that businessmen are always the most cunning, and the second is that physiological needs, at some times, often outweigh national interests.
"Go on." Li Ruomo nodded with satisfaction, this is the information she needs, and it is also the real ability of the hummingbird.
"Access to the passage is very expensive, but it's only a small problem, the big problem is that if the Americans are alert, the vendors will immediately block the passage." Hummingbird said.
"Vicious traders, they are always the first to betray the country, and they are the most inhumane." The snow leopard cursed, but thinking of Li Ruomo's words two days ago, the snow leopard immediately closed his mouth honestly.
While everyone agrees with this statement, it is inevitable that these vendors are giving them the opportunity.
And in the words of business, the snow leopard is nonsense, because the highest belief of businessmen is profit, just like them, they can do whatever it takes for the interests of the country, and businessmen can do whatever it takes for personal interests, there is no one who is nobler or more depraved, it's just a difference in values, because in the eyes of the snow leopard, morality is just a standard defined by ordinary people, because they can't talk about morality with their enemies.
"I've got in touch and paid these vendors a million dollars, and we have access to the passage for five hours, and during those five hours, no matter what happens, they won't close the passage." Hummingbird Road.
"Sure enough, money can make the devil grind." The snow leopard muttered, "I knew it was going to happen." ”
This time, Li Ruomo didn't glare at him, but just asked, "What about the situation in the prison?" ”
Hearing this, Hummingbird looked embarrassed: "I only know four areas, in which more than 200 terrorists are imprisoned, and there are even some Chinese East Turkistan elements in them, and the most important fifth area is confidential." ”
"Is there a diagram of the prison?" Li Ruomo said suddenly.
"It's in the hands of the Americans, but one person may know." Hummingbird Road.
"Who?"
"Armando Sende, a wealthy Cuban businessman, whose grandfather was a worker who built this prison, and whose father also worked in the prison, was the largest supplier of necessities to the Americans." Hummingbird Road.
"I knew it was going to be like this." The snow leopard didn't have a good air, and it was clear that he hated the merchant now
