Chapter 4 (II) Ghost Attack Aircraft
The 12 men boarded the C-17 transport plane at the scheduled time and headed to the South Korean base in Gunsan with the other 80 Marines on board.
Of course, some of the Marines who saw them on the plane looked at them with curiosity, because they were all dressed completely differently from the Marines, and they were armed with different weapons, and in addition to the standard equipment, they also carried things that no other Marine had never seen before, such as quadruple drones and hand-held artillery equipment, as well as box scanners, and so on.
When they first boarded the plane, many Marines approached and looked at their equipment, which made Tang Shuxing and the other three a little nervous, after all, they were pretending to be FAST and were not real American soldiers, if this matter was discovered, it would not only be Phil who would suffer, but also the director of the CIA, because Jason was completely hiding everything that the current president was doing.
The plane finally arrived at the base in the mountains after several hours, and before landing, all the Marines were ready to go, only to learn that they did not need to enter the base the moment the plane landed.
The 80 marines had to watch Tang Shuxing and the other 12 people leave the plane, but at the moment when the hatch was completely opened, these marines also saw the devastated base outside, and couldn't help but gasp - there was indeed a war here, and because of the need for blockade, most of the corpses did not move their positions, and were still lying in the position where they were shot and died, basically decomposed, emitting a foul smell.
Wait for Tang Shuxing and the others to leave the plane quickly. After forming a ring of defense, the hatch slowly closed in a burst of surprise, then turned around and took off again, flying away from the mountain base, and then the Marines began to rejoice that they were not allowed to disembark, because they knew that if they were allowed to go down, the first thing they would do was to clean up the mess in the stenchβthat was definitely not what they wanted to do.
Phil watched the C-17 transport plane take off and leave, and then changed his position. Look at the tallest tower in the base. He said to the captain of the FAST team under him: "You take your team to that guard tower, we will search and advance one by one, you provide us with support, pay attention to the movement around the base." At the same time, contact was made with the blockade forces outside. Tell me where you are. We also provide them with our coordinates and directions at any time. β
"Understood." The captain got up, took off the folded Maverick drone from the communications soldier, and threw it in the direction of the tower. The drone then took off. The communications soldier remotely controlled with one hand, paying attention to the surveillance screen of the drone, and with the other hand, he grabbed his companion who was leading the way in front and trotted towards the tower.
"How many remote control toys do you have with you?" Tang Shuxing looked at the Maverick drone, which flew several times faster than the four-wing drone, and felt that these "toys" of the US military were too practical, and that kind of altitude and speed, if it weren't for intensive firepower, would not hurt at all.
"That thing is worth $100,000, not counting the airborne shotgun carried on the plane, it was a civilian aircraft in the early years, and the arms company bought the patent to redevelop it, and later spent hundreds of thousands of dollars to develop that kind of small shotgun to carry out reconnaissance and targeted sniper missions." Phil looked around, thinking about which facility to start with, "You can carry 12 rounds of 12 caliber shotgun standard ammunition, normally speaking, as long as you control it properly, the sniper who is targeted usually will not escape death, we have tested it with paint bullets." β
"And what is this thing you're carrying?" Tang Shuxing looked at the four-winged drone hanging on the side of Phil's backpack, which was also folded and looked twice as small as the Maverick drone.
"It's all standard for the reconnaissance unit." Phil took off the drone, unfolded it, and asked the three of Tang Shuxing to stand up, and then used the drone monitoring to take pictures of the appearance of the three people, and then entered the system, and then turned on the smart mode, "After turning on the smart mode, the drone will be on alert within ten meters around us, and it can find all moving things except us, but it's not good to know this, this guy will warn if he finds a bird." β
Phil looked at the nearest hangar and pointed, "Let's start with the hangar over there." β
"Stay vigilant." Ji Kefeng picked up the assault rifle in his hand and looked around.
"Master Ji, have you sensed anything?" Gu Huaiyi asked in the back.
Ji Kefeng shook his head: "There is no one alive." β
Phil turned his head at this time and looked at Ji Kefeng with a very strange gaze: "What does perception mean?" β
Tang Shuxing swept past Phil and patted him on the shoulder: "He has superpowers." β
"Really?" Phil was surprised, Ji Kefeng just smiled, didn't say anything, and followed Gu Huaiyi to the small door of the hangar first, sticking to the left and right. Phil remotely flew the drone through the blasted hole in the upper end of the hangar to reconnoiter the situation.
"Safe, nothing but the dead." Phil remotely controlled the drone around the hangar, hovered over the hangar, and slowly led the others inside.
As soon as Phil stepped into the door, Gu Huaiyi grabbed him, signaling that even if it was safe, don't take it lightly, and then he and Ji Kefeng slowly touched in from the door, and Tang Shuxing then got into the hole on the other side that was blown up by explosives.
After everyone entered the hangar, the first thing they saw was a Navy painted A-10 ground attack aircraft, which seemed to have been hit by rifle bullets only in some places, which did not affect its performance.
Phil walked straight to the attack plane, climbed up the escalator and looked at the dead body in the open cockpit, the dead body was shot in the head on the left side, and was killed by one shot, it seems that the pilot was after the attack, ready to blast open the hangar door with a cannon, drove the plane out of the cannon, and then took off, but unfortunately failed.
Gu Huaiyi and Ji Kefeng searched around, checking the dead bodies around them, Tang Shuxing turned around and came to Phil and asked, "You have been watching for so long, is there anything wrong?" β
"The only thing that is wrong is this A-10 attack aircraft." Phil pointed to the plane in front of him, "There shouldn't be an A-10 at the Gunsan base." I have in my hand a sheet of all the aircraft in service with the Gunsan base from its inception to the present, there has never been an A-10 here, and this plane is blatantly parked here, not to mention, and it is still fully loaded with ammunition. β
Tang Shuxing looked at Phil: "Fully loaded with ammunition? β
"Yes." Phil came down from the escalator and pointed to the Zuni rocket magazine hanging under the wings, then walked to the underside of the nose and pointed to the GAU-8 cannon there, "The 70mm rockets, as well as the 30mm caliber cannon ammunition are all full, under normal circumstances, not in combat readiness." It doesn't need to be like this. β
Tang Shuxing didn't know anything about airplanes. I didn't understand the arrangements of the US military on weekdays, so I had to say: "Could it be that someone here knows that the Ludao base will be attacked?" β
"Impossible." Phil left the plane, looked around, and asked Gu Huaiyi and Ji Kefeng. "Did anyone find a knife wound?"
"Yes-" Gu Huaiyi and Ji Kefeng replied at the same time. Tell Phil. All the soldiers and officers who died in the corners and side warehouses in the hangar were stabbed to death or hacked to death.
"And look at the traces, it's a Japanese sword." Gu Huaiyi pulled out the Yin Bee on his waist. Hand it to Phil, "Although the sharpness is not as sharp as mine, it is not much worse, they are all killed with a knife, judging from their deaths, these soldiers who were killed by Japanese swords don't even know what happened to the road." β
"Let's take a look at the other hangars." Phil didn't draw any conclusions, but led the three of them to search for the adjacent hangar, and then the four of them found three A-10 attack planes in the other three hangars next to each other, all of which were fully loaded with ammunition like the previous one.
Phil thought it was very strange, because the four-seat hangar next to it, judging from the data, was the maintenance hangar for the F-16, which was very large, and could park at least 4 F-16s, and almost fit 4 A-10 attack aircraft, but why should they be stored separately? And where did these A-10 attack aircraft come from? He had not been given any information about it when he came.
Phil left the hangar, avoided the three of them, and asked the Ministry of Defense directly, and the other party quickly replied and told him the general situation about the A-10 attack aircraft.
After receiving the answer, Phil turned off the communications, returned to the hangar and looked at the A-10 attack plane, lost in thought. At present, the US military has a total of more than 700 A-10 attack planes, and as of this morning, there are 125 of them under routine maintenance, of which 75 cannot perform their tasks in a short period of time, while the US military stationed in South Korea has only 24 A-10 attack planes at the Osan base.
How could there be 4 more A-10s out of thin air at the Gunsan base?
"Cheetah, this is Sea Eagle, there is an emergency!" Phil's intercom heard an emergency call from the captain of FAST, who was already on guard at the tower, "An A-10 attack plane has driven out of a hangar on the north side, and it is heading towards the runway, you leave your current position and should be visible to the naked eye to the north, is that our people?" β
"What? A-10 ready for takeoff? Phil turned his head towards Tang Shuxing and the others, signaled everyone to follow him out, and then galloped to the runway outside, and then looked north with a telescope, and sure enough, he saw an A-10 attack plane coming towards this side, but because there was no standard runway in that direction, and there was no tractor, the attack plane was driving very slowly.
"I'm going, hell? Are there still pilots alive? Or did someone from the outside blockade force come in? Tang Shuxing also looked at it with a telescope.
Phil shook his head and shouted to the FAST captain over the intercom, "You use the tower's standard communication channel to ask about that A-10!" β
Soon, the captain of FAST replied: "Cheetah, the other party didn't answer, there is a bad news to tell you, I have seen it with a high-powered long-range scanner, and it seems to be ...... in the cockpit of the plane There is no one. β
When Phil heard this, his throat seemed to be blocked by something, and he was stunned for two seconds before saying, "Seahawk, don't be joking. β
"Boss, I can clearly see the A-10 passing below from my current position, and I look through my binoculars, and there really isn't a ...... in there," Captain FAST replied, and he was also very surprised.
"Tell your men to kill that plane!" Tang Shuxing suddenly said to Phil, "If there is no one inside, then someone is playing ghosts, it must be aimed at us, once we take off, we can only wait for death!" Fast! (To be continued......)
