Chapter 4 (I) Strange Shadows in the Base of the Mountains
While Phil was thinking, Tang Shuxing continued to analyze on the side: "What Shangdu is most afraid of now is the Thai government army, because the government army is the government army after all, and it is the most powerful, but what if the government army fails?" Shangdu no longer has any fearful power in Thailand, and they can even blackmail the king, so what Shangdu is most looking forward to is a large-scale attack by the government army and a decisive battle with them! In this way, Shang can eliminate the government army in the shortest possible time! β
Phil looked up at Tang Shuxing, and then shook his head: "Shangdu teaches a group of rabble, and has such a strong strength?" Most of them are ordinary people. β
"Don't forget, there are still corpses, these monsters alone can be worth five or six soldiers, and there must be these people among the cultists in Bangkok!" Tang Shuxing looked at the distance and said, "Moreover, you haven't found out what the soldiers from the mainland are doing to fight against the water, so what if your people turn against the water during the counteroffensive?" And also put on the clothes of the Thai government army, once the fight starts, the Thai government army is all chaotic, maybe there is no need to shoot at all, the government army has not yet arrived in the vicinity of Bangkok has been greatly injured, how to enter Bangkok to clear the field? β
Phil was in a cold sweat when he heard this, and he knew very well what the consequences would be if something like that happened, even if it could not deal a serious blow to the United States as a whole, it would make the United States lose its original position in the world, and even its allies would not believe their military strength that claimed to be invincible, but would be counterproductive at any time.
Gu Huaiyi and Ji Kefeng were still silent, and the two of them had their own thoughts. They also know each other's ways, but they don't break it.
"Government forces should not attack Bangkok and do their best to protect the royal family and protect their safety." Tang Shuxing sat down and said, "As long as there is a royal family and military strength, it is only a matter of time before Bangkok is recovered." β
Phil was silent, looking at Tang Shuxing and motioning for him to continue.
Tang Shuxing said: "If I were the Thai royal family, I would send people to persuade the surrounding countries, Laos, Cambodia, and Myanmar." Even Vietnam and India. Explain the stakes. Because once the Shandu Sect in Thailand wins, those Shandu Christians in the surrounding countries will definitely follow suit, if everyone sweeps up the snow in front of their own doors, and does not join forces to eliminate the root of Shandu Christianity. In the end, the result will only be broken one by one. β
"It's hardβ" Phil shook his head. "Politics is not as simple as you seem. To tell you the truth, not only Thailand, but also other countries in Southeast Asia also have frequent activities. It is difficult for neighboring countries to protect themselves, and we have also received news that some countries have started negotiations with Shantujiao in private, just to avoid the bloody conflict in Thailand, and hope that it can be resolved peacefully. β
ββ¦β¦ That is, Thailand is isolated? Tang Shuxing closed his eyes and sighed.
"Yes." Phil nodded, "In addition to us, there are also China who have privately said that they will help the royal family, but because of foreign policy, it is impossible for them to send troops, but the Zheng family army in the Golden Triangle may be able to help." β
Phil's words were actually deliberately said to Gu Huaiyi, and he could be regarded as using words to test him, but Gu Huaiyi just pretended to be asleep and did not say anything.
Tang Shuxing knew very well that Gu Huaiyi had just grasped the power of the Zheng family, and immediately after taking power, he took his subordinates to fight hard, which did not do him any good for his future rule, even if he wanted to work hard, he had to give his subordinates a certain amount of sweetness first, otherwise why should others go? Just loyalty to the Zheng family? No, the people below are indeed eating with the Zheng family, but that person is the dead Zheng Guoyuan, not the current Gu Huaiyi.
Therefore, the most important thing for Gu Huaiyi at the moment is to consolidate his position, not to shake it with his own hands.
Phil looked at Tang Shuxing again, Tang Shuxing just shook his head, indicating that he couldn't do anything, and then changed the topic and said, "Isn't it time for us to go?" β
Phil was a little disappointed, but said: "The counteroffensive cannot be stopped, but I will inform the Ministry of Defense that I hope they will postpone the plan to send troops to assist Thailand, but this may not make the Thai royal family give up the plan to counterattack Bangkok, and it can only make the Thai royal family disappointed in our government." β
"There's another way." Tang Shuxing said in a low voice, "It may be safer to send soldiers from bases other than the mainland, South Korea, and Japan, but it is very difficult to deal with the corpses. After speaking, Tang Shuxing pointed to the magazine under the gun and asked, "What happened to the Qunshan base?" Do we have to use this special bullet? β
"Our first investigators found that many of the soldiers died from knife wounds, not gunshot wounds." Phil took out a tablet and asked Tang Shuxing to look at a nearby room, so as not to reflect the light from the screen and let people find out that there were still people in the village house.
Entering the house, Tang Shuxing turned on the computer and looked at the photos inside. As Phil said, many of the soldiers had been pierced through their chests or had their necks wiped with cold weapons, and there were quite a few of them in the photo.
"It's strange, under that kind of battle, isn't someone looking for death with a knife?" Tang Shuxing raised his eyes and asked Phil, who was standing on the side chewing gum.
"Yes, I also thought it would be made up after the soldier died, but the autopsy revealed that it was not like that." Phil slid the computer again and asked Tang Shuxing to look at the bottom of the video surveillance footage.
The picture shows a hangar inside the base, originally the hangar ground maintenance personnel and pilots were overhauling several F-16 fighter jets, and suddenly someone opened fire from the other direction, and then a team of heavily armed American troops was filmed rushing into the hangar, orderly firing at the people inside, the battle ended in just a few minutes, because the people in the hangar were almost not equipped with weapons, it was a massacre at all, but in the massacre, the surveillance clearly captured a few flickering figures from the corner, Assassinate the pilots and gendarmes who were hiding with something in their hands.
Phil pressed the pause button, pointed to the figure in the picture holding something like a knife, and was slashing at the two people in the corner who were unaware, and asked, "Doesn't it look familiar?" β
Tang Shuxing looked at it for a while, nodded and said, "Optical camouflage?" β
"Yes!" Phil nodded, "Optical camouflage, this technique has been developed by us and Israel since 1999, and it didn't improve until many years ago, but it has never really been used in the army, at best, it has only allowed a small number of secret special forces to conduct experimental operations." β
Tang Shuxing thought of the batch of pseudo-Rubik's Cube troops, but he didn't mention it, just said: "In Camden City, the unit you sent to rescue us is wearing this kind of optical camouflage. β
"Yes, but we've never leaked this technique." Phil frowned.
"It's different, isn't it!?" Tang Shuxing said with a smile, "The group of people in the Philadelphia Military Harbor who disguised themselves as Rubik's Cube troops, and the guys from unknown sources are also wearing optical camouflage, do you mean, this group of people is your people?" Your men rushed and killed all the Delta Force soldiers? β
Phil just smiled and said, "There are some things that I don't know, it's a high-level thing." β
Tang Shuxing returned the tablet to Phil and said, "You mean, you're not considered a high-level person?" β
Phil Zhilu said that this topic must not continue, so he had to go back to the Qunshan base: "After we and the South Korean army blockaded the base, we began to investigate, because the matter is special and the base is too big, we can only send a group of 20 people to investigate at a time, because the military is used to blockade the surrounding area, and besides, we can't send the South Koreans in, right?" So, something happened. β
"Something's wrong?" Tang Shuxing sat on the floor and looked at Phil, "What's wrong?" β
"The first group disappeared, 20 soldiers evaporated, and after we lost contact with them, we sent a second group of people, this time twice as many as the last time, and also turned on real-time monitoring, because the monitoring equipment and hosts in the base were all destroyed in the battle that night." Phil took a deep breath, "But this time the world has evaporated, half an hour after going in, all the world has evaporated, we didn't dare to send anyone in again, the director decided to send you in to investigate clearly." β
Tang Shuxing shook his head and said with a smile: "We have now become mercenaries of the US government?" β
Phil also smiled: "If you want, we can give you American citizenship and military status." β
"Thank you, but I'm exempt!" Tang Shuxing sat there and asked, "Tell me about your plan, what are we going to do after we arrive at the base?" β
"The C-17 transport we were flying on landed directly in the Gunsan base, but the perimeter was blocked, and once we landed, the plane would leave, in other words, we would be isolated." Phil leaned to the side, "As for the 80 Marines who were with us on the plane, it was just a cover, we didn't dare to send people to take any more risks, and this group of people was also sent from the mainland, so it was better for us to do it ourselves." β
"In other words, plus you and the 8 FAST soldiers, as well as the 3 of us, only 12 people entered the Qunshan base to investigate?" Tang Shuxing got up and asked.
Phil nodded silently: "Standard configuration." β
"Nope." Tang Shuxing shook his head, "There are too many people, on the contrary, it is troublesome, my suggestion is to let your men go to the commanding heights of the base to cover us, and the three of us will investigate." β
Phil frowned: "For what?" β
"It's a burden for us to take the eight of them, they will drag us down, and if something happens, they will die on the spot." Tang Shuxing was serious, and added, "I don't look down on them, just to protect them." β
"They're one in a thousand soldiers." Phil was a little upset.
"The members of the Delta Force in the Philadelphia Military Port are also one in a thousand, right? When we encountered the pseudo-Rubik's Cube troops, we were not completely wiped out, not to mention that we may not be dealing with people this time. Tang Shuxing shook his head, looked at Phil's embarrassed appearance, and said, "You can follow us, but we can't guarantee your safety." β
"Well, that's all there is to it." Phil nodded, looking at his watch, "It's time to go, we need to walk to the airport and then dive in, remember, no one can be spotted along the way, and we have to stun witnesses, not hurt people." β
"Understood! Let's go! Tang Shuxing followed Phil out the door, and then left the village house with the others, and walked briskly in the direction of the airport. (To be continued......)
