Chapter 242: Dead or alive

With the dim light of the morning light, An Feng used the laser rangefinder in his hand to begin to measure the terrain around the hill, as well as factors such as wind speed that affected the shooting. The rest of the team lurked behind the mountain, waiting for An Feng's signal.

Time passed, the sun jumped out of the ground, the tips of the peaks were illuminated by the sun, and the mist gradually evaporated and began to drift away - in a few hours, when it was close to noon and the sun could reach the valley floor, a military satellite would fly over the village in space, scanning the hills and rocks around the village with infrared, chromatography and so on, looking for caves hidden in the rocks.

Of course, scanning from space can't be detailed. It also requires the cooperation of ground forces, as well as a review. What An Feng is doing now is collecting information.

After more than two or three minutes, the team members hidden in the ridge finished eating, and the lizard, which was supposed to replace An Feng to climb the ridge, groped forward, but An Feng did not let the lizard approach, he used sign language to tell the lizard to gather the rest of his companions - the sun is about to come out, as the sun becomes stronger and stronger, the dew will be sunburned, and the grass that is overwhelmed by the feet will not be dewed, and it will become dry before noon, and a discerning person will find traces of people moving around at a glance.

Therefore, the team members must straighten the overwhelming grass and enter the latent position before the dew dries, so as to completely hide their whereabouts.

The lizard nodded silently, quietly retreated, and went over to gather his companions one by one, everyone silently packed their luggage, straightened the grass that had been overwhelmed last night, and then freely combined in pairs and twos, looking for their favorite lurking location, and then silently entered the selected observation position.

About half past five, suddenly a loud shout came from the lonely fir tree in the small village, this kind of trumpet...... It is the voice of the temple calling for people to pray in the morning. With the sound of the trumpet, a young man jumped down from the huge fir tree, and when he stood under the tree and stretched, people found a hammock on the fir tree, and on the branch next to the hammock, a man raised his hands to his mouth to make a trumpet, and shouted the slogan of morning prayer in a long voice.

That night, the opponent's lurking post slept in the tree all night.

At this moment, An Feng's team was six hundred meters away from the lurking post, which was beyond the effective range of ordinary submachine guns, but the other party was still within visual range, and his every move was clear.

The sentry on the ground was still chanting prayers after stretching and kicking and twisting his waist, while the sentry on the branch was still chanting prayers, and the sentry who fell to the ground immediately roared loudly in the direction of Mecca. After yelling, he turned to the direction of the village and covered his hands to his mouth, and continued to roar. The two voices mingled, and the mountains reverberated in a series of echoes. Then, the boy on the ground crossed his waist and tilted his head, listening to the mountains' response, as if he admired his masterpiece very much.

An Feng waved his hand, and the group members swam in the grass. An Feng is of course partnered with Argyle, and at this time, the unmanned reconnaissance aircraft carried by Argyll has been transferred to the "left hand" and "right hand", and they will continue to stay at the mountain beam and will be responsible for aerial reconnaissance and auxiliary electronic equipment debugging.

The highest part of the ridge was more than a mile from the central building of the village, and such a distance was obviously not suitable for lurking, so except for the "left hand" and "right hand" who remained on the ridge, An Feng and the lizard wildcat continued to descend - the ridge on which they were located was very steep.

An Feng swam to the bottom of the hillside and found a half-sized rock, behind which was a pine forest and fir forest, as well as a steep rock. After An Feng crawled to the rocks, he began to lie on the ground and shovel the sappers...... Dig a pit

He dug the hole like a mouse, and in a moment his feet disappeared into the hole, and then he continued digging - he worked harder than the mouse, because the earth was quietly thrown.

After digging a hiding hole large enough to accommodate the two of them, it took more than half an hour before and after. At this time, the other party's morning prayer seemed to be over, and two more people finally came out of the village. The two newcomers were still two teenagers of twelve or thirteen years old, carrying AK47s as tall as themselves on their shoulders, and they swayed and lazily towards the big tree where they were staying, and the lurking post next to the fir tree beckoned to the people, as if urging...... Before the two children could reach him, they had already run towards the village, and as they left, they shouted something loudly.

After this shout, a man stood on the roof of the building in the center of the village, standing on the dome of the village hall, learning from his companions to stretch his arms and kick his legs, and then put his hands to his mouth in a magnified voice, and began to cry out for a long time, urging the villagers to get up and pray for the morning...... Start your training routine for the day

Half an hour later, An Feng had already set up a camouflage net on the hiding cave, and he beckoned Argyll to swim over as well.

Argyll was relatively large, he was dressed in camouflage clothes, and he slowly moved on the ground like a snake, and it took him twenty minutes to descend from the trees halfway up the hill to the side of the boulder, and then burrow into the cave, take the sapper shovel, and continue to expand the area of the cave.

The camouflage net on the Tibetan soldier cave looked like a pile of dead branches and leaves from a distance, and the Tibetan soldier cave dug by An Feng was shaped like a dustpan, facing the direction of the village diagonally downward, and the person lay down in the shallow pit with only one head exposed.

After Argyle entered the cave, he hid at An Feng's feet and continued to dig deep in the cave—he wanted to dig a deep pit in the cave, where he could ⊥ people lie down and rest. In this way, two people can take turns to monitor, one can hide in the cat's ear hole deep in the cave of the hidden soldiers to sleep, and the other can lie on duty at the mouth of the pit.

After another ten minutes, the lizards reported that they were in place. The lizard didn't dare to go down to the bottom of the mountain, he chose to hide in a bush halfway up the mountain closest to the big tree at the entrance of the village, and also dug a hiding hole there, and the two hid in this hiding hole.

After digging the cave, Argyle took out a small bag of dry powder from his backpack and carefully sprinkled it in the cave, one is to hide the smell of the human body, and the other is to make the cave dry quickly, so as not to suffer from diseases and reduce combat effectiveness due to hiding here for too long.

Since it lurks under the nose of the enemy, the food can only be food, and the smelly food cannot be used. As a result, An Feng and Argyle could only chew on the compressed cake with only salt flavor and no spices. After swallowing a piece of cake, you have to eat two pieces of chocolate, because the chocolate is fragrant, it can't open the package and bite directly, you must swallow a piece of the package into your mouth, then close your mouth, chew, and finally lick out the chocolate in the package with your tongue......

On the hill, the signal of the left hand announcing its position quietly transmitted to the earphones of the people, and then, there was a slight buzzing sound in the earphones, which was similar to a bee, and the unmanned reconnaissance plane was released, which will fly to an altitude of more than 1,000 meters, and use the space camera to shoot the movements around the village from above, and the images taken were transmitted to the fat girl through the satellite at the same time.

Soon after the release of the unmanned reconnaissance plane, it was another morning summary of the Taliban and a routine moment to show determination. The houses around the village opened their doors one after another, and the villagers walked to the village center auditorium with kneeling blankets under their armpits, and instead of entering the auditorium, they circled around the auditorium and knelt on the stone floor outside the auditorium.

The fat woman's voice was relayed through the unmanned reconnaissance aircraft and transmitted to the ears of the lurking personnel: "Twenty-three, twenty-four...... Thirty-two people came out of the house, but now there were more than eighty kneeling on the steps around the house, and it is estimated that there were thirty or forty more in the auditorium—where did these people sleep at night? ”

A few minutes later, the morning training was over, and then the missionary ...... After about half an hour of preaching, the Taliban, kneeling on the stone slabs around the auditorium, stood up and then divided into six teams and began jogging around the village.

They ran lap after lap, and when the fourth lap began, the horn on the roof of the auditorium roared, and the people began to accelerate, and after running the lap at full speed, the loudspeaker began to ask the students to run at medium speed, variable speed, and high leg...... All kinds of runs.

The whole running process lasted about forty minutes, and An Feng estimated that it was about 800 meters to run a lap around the village, and this group of people ran a total of ten laps, so they should have run a distance of eight kilometers...... Well, the Taliban who are being trained are really in good shape.

Of course, the discipline of this group of people is also good, after the morning run, this group of people entered the auditorium in order according to the procession, about the beginning of breakfast, after breakfast is probably brainwashing, because after three hours, no one around the village moved, but once four women went out of the village, worked in the vegetable field on the slope of the mountain, watered the vegetables, picked a few baskets of vegetables, and then went back to the village and never appeared again.

The smoke of the lunch was rising from the eight houses, and when the smell of the food filled the valley, a woman led three children, led two dogs, and drove thirty or forty sheep out of the village. When their figures disappeared into the valley mouth, a faint donkey's cry came from the valley mouth, and a few minutes later, six men drove twenty-four mules or donkeys to the valley mouth, loaded with food.

About 100 meters from the big tree at the entrance of the village, the camel caravan stopped advancing, and the leader of the caravan greeted the two children playing under the tree, one of the children ran back to the tree, took out his submachine gun from the root of the tree, and trotted towards the caravan, he ran from the end of the caravan to the end, patting the pockets on the back of the livestock with his hands, and when he reached the end of the carapace, he went around in a circle and returned from the other side, also patting the sack on this side of the caravan.

When the boy ran back to the front of the caravan, he put his thumb and forefinger into his mouth, whistled loudly, and then reached out to help lead the donkey, and said something to the leader of the caravan with his little face up, and a faint whisper came in the wind.

"Tea bricks...... Soufflé ...... I still want to...... Optimus Prime, Megatron...... Bumblebee ......"

Well, it's still a kid.

It is said that the brainwashing slogan of this organization is: Horror to the baby.

Their most popular first birthday photo is said to be a photo of a baby wearing a suicide bomber belt.

It is said that their parents show off and compete with each other: a photo of the baby's dynamite belt...... More majestic and terrifying.

Shooting at children is evil, and shooting at children with automatic rifles...... To shoot or not to shoot?

Those who train these children to carry rifles should ......

At this time, the distribution of the six-person team is like this, the left hand is located at the commanding heights of the mountain beam, the satellite receiving antenna is in the hand, the gun is in the arms, responsible for protecting the right hand, there is no weapon in the right hand, only a bulky military computer, the computer screen in her hand records in real time An Feng at the lowest point of the valley, the lizard and the wild cat on the mountainside, and the electronic images presented in the rangefinders on both sides.

The closest observation post to the village is An Feng in the Hidden Soldier Cave. Because the location is too low, he can't see the panoramic view of the village, the boulder for him to hide is just at the end of the village, and the fir tree at the entrance of the village is about 400 meters away from him, a hundred meters away from him is the dry riverbed, and behind him is the steep rock wall, which is the north slope of the mountain from which An Feng and others came down.

On the south side of the village is a gently sloping grassland, and a few acres of vegetable fields have been cultivated not far from the Lihe River, and the women who came out of the village crossed a wooden bridge erected on the riverbed, walked to the opposite bank and began to toil—no one ever looked at the boulders at the end of the river or the mountains.

An Feng couldn't see the panoramic view of the village from his position, he could only look down the river valley at the entrance of the village, but the lizards and wild cats halfway up the mountain just looked down on the whole village, and the images that appeared in their laser rangefinders also appeared on An Feng's tactical glasses through the signal repeater in his right hand.

At this time, a wave of people came out of the village, led by a middle-aged man with a turban on his head and a beard, more than a dozen men with weapons gathered in front of and behind him, and two men in the team were holding bazookas, but everyone's expressions were very casual, and they didn't think that they could encounter any danger in the village.

At the same time, around the eight houses in the center of the village, several women came out, all carrying buckets in their hands, and the white smoke in the tin buckets entered the village hall...... An Feng blinked, and immediately deduced what was in the bucket: it turned out that the eight houses were the houses of the training camp in the small village, and the women here existed in the form of cooks.

The laser rangefinder in the lizard's hand continues to magnify, and the bearded man at the head of the team, the facial features are constantly magnified, and when the entire face image is frozen, six small frames automatically jump out of the screen, and the small frames are quickly located in the bearded man's eyebrow bone, pupils, nose bridge, auricles and other parts, at the same time, the numbers on the screen are constantly beating......

At this time, in addition to the fat girl, Danielle and Ryan who are thousands of miles away are watching the image at the same time. A search box has been added to Ryan's computer screen, as he is the only one who has a large database of suspects. In the search box, the photos flipped through quickly, and finally froze on one of the photos, the computer showed that the two photos had a 93% acquaintance level, and Ryan looked at the name marked on the photo, and he immediately grabbed the phone and reported it to his superiors.

"We've caught a big fish, we've caught P. L. Zakhaev."

A calm voice came from the phone opposite: "I want to know more details." ”

Ryan immediately connected to the image on the screen: "I pass the information to you, one of my teams is on a mission there. ”

The real-time images were immediately in the hands of the higher-ranking officials, and five minutes later, Ryan's boss sent an order: "Do you have any support there?" ”

Ryan replied respectfully: "I have two teams in the vicinity, the team responsible for infiltrating the past is the most capable of assault force, and the manpower can only ensure logistical security, and there is also a team of nine people, lurking nearby, I need two hours to summon time." ”

"It's too late, I'll send people from the nearest base, and at sunset they will be airborne near the village, and I'll also send three drones into the air to tell me where the target is."

Ryan told the location of the village, and after a pause, he asked, "How will my people cooperate?" ”

The boss replied: "Don't startle the snakes, don't let the people there flee the mountains." ”

Ryan thought for a moment and added, "I only have six people, and six people surround a village, so it is estimated that it is difficult to take care of it. ”

The boss grinned: "I checked your team file just now, and there is another member of your team." Now you don't have to worry about anything, just give an order to Constance in the team and tell him to keep that Zakhaev no matter what, whether he lives or dies...... Of course, it's better to be alive. ”

After this conversation, Ryan thought about it, he walked around the office, picked up the intercom, cleared his throat, and ordered: "Eagle Eagle, I'm the Eagle's Nest, please answer when you hear it." ”

The fat girl heard it, but she didn't dare to interject. She can receive this signal, and she listens synchronously according to the decryption password and channel band provided by An Feng. But she had no idea that there were other people watching the channel at the same time, and the person who was listening to it obviously had the correct decryption code.

An Feng, who received this order, was stunned for a moment, he leaned down, put his mouth as close to the ground as possible, and said softly: "Eagle understands, we have a bad signal here, and the sound is a little noisy. ”

At the same time, the lizard and wild cat, as well as the left and right hands, all widened their mouths in surprise, and they mouthed each other and asked their companions: Who is speaking? What is the identity of this person who inserted halfway?

The following dialogue is like a TV show of intellectual games, Ruien says a question, An Feng immediately says the answer, and then An Feng asks a question, and Ruien consults the password book to give the answer, and the two sides ask and answer, each asking three questions, in fact, through a pre-set password to identify each other.

After all, radio signals are the easiest to fake, and if you insert a person in the middle to say that he is your boss, even if his voice sounds familiar, it doesn't necessarily mean that he is really your boss, because he may be playing the "guess and see" phone trick.

After the two sides were clearly identified, Ryan calmly gave the order: "There is an order passed to Constance, and the order is: leave Zakaev, dead or alive, of course, it is best to let him live." ”

There was no response on the phone, and Ryan took a breath and continued, "The support team will arrive tonight, and now that the satellite has arrived over the village, your mission is to increase surveillance and prevent anyone from escaping. ”
