Tips:

No. 18 drove the car, Yang Fan and Vulture sat in the cab, and the rest sat in the back of the truck.

"Where is Eric now?" Vulture asked.

"In Chatan, he and his master were there to find a family, and it is said that they were both involved in the filming of the 'White Helmets' video. They're convincing them to participate in interviews and tell the truth. ”

Yang Fan then asked, "What is the situation between the ghost squad and the Syrian military?" ”

Number 18 sighed and said, "The Ghost Squad has always been by Eric's side, but they have never been seen in public, and they are very mysterious.

Last time, I brought 6 people to forcibly take Eric, but 3 of them died on the spot under the guns of the ghost squad! It was all done by one of the snipers of that squad! I was the only one who got away with it.

The other 2 discovered the Sniper's location and went after him, but were killed by the other Ghost Squad members who were in ambush. We only felt that the other side was acting alone, and we didn't know that it was a full team, which was our mistake.

Later, we began to investigate the group's intelligence, and the only information we got was that the sniper liked to go it alone, and it was on this basis that we were able to confirm their identity. ”

The 18th paused slightly and continued, "As for the military, they are not publicly involved in this matter at this time, and they presumably want to use Eric's identity to find out the truth.

Because he is an American, and he is the son of a senator, this will deal a bigger blow to the United States and force the United States to withdraw from the civil war in Syria. ”

The vulture touched his chin and said, "So, we're going to deal with the Ghost Squad first, or rescue Eric under their protection." Then, it will be necessary to evade the Syrian military in order to bring Eric out of Syria. ”

"Yes." "But if we can convince Eric to let him leave voluntarily, then I can get him out of Syria through my channels," the 18th said. ”

Yang Fan looked at No. 18 and asked, "Didn't you try?" You are a trained agent who has not been able to convince him, how can we possibly do that? ”

"No, you're wrong." Number 18 said, "Eric is an idealist and a very kind person. His purpose was to reduce this fearless killing and sacrifice, and he was just a simple and righteous child.

When I first started with him, he was really determined. But after the death of my five brothers, I contacted him again, and he seemed to have changed a little. It's just that at that time, the family was about to be convinced, and he didn't want to give up this opportunity! ”

The vulture smiled and said, "We are different from you, we will not impress him with sacrifices.

After your sacrifice, there is compensation from the United States, although the money is not very much, but at least there is an honor. We can't, we're just doing it for the commission, and I'm not going to let my brothers die here for nothing for the sake of so-called justice! ”

No. 18's face twitched a little, and he said coldly: "Captain Condor, the sacrifices are also my brothers!" It doesn't matter if they're soldiers, agents, or mercenaries, in my heart, they're all my brothers.

Although we are CIA people, we are also all emotional. Compensation, honor, these are fucking worthless compared to fate!

We've all sworn allegiance to our homeland before God, and perhaps you've done something similar. But life is so much more important than faith and commitment! Only those who have experienced life and death can understand this.

I don't want my brothers to die in front of me if possible, fuck shit honor! ”

No. 18 vented, Yang Fan and Vulture didn't speak, they knew what it meant to those brothers who fought side by side with him.

"But life is far more important than faith and commitment, and only those who have experienced life and death understand it." Yang Fan can't evaluate whether No. 18's words are correct or not, because in every angle of the world, there are people dying for their beliefs at every moment.

But if there is still a choice, Yang Fan will also be on the side of life like No. 18.

18 adjusted his mood and continued, "As long as you can hold off the ghost team, I'll find a way to convince Eric!" ”

After four hours of bumpy driving, the truck stopped in front of an old house.

Everyone got out of the car and entered the old house under the leadership of the 18th. They walked around the old house for a long time, and they didn't know how many narrow passages they had passed before they reached another house behind it. Yang Fan felt that if No. 18 had not led them, they would definitely go the wrong way.

When I got to the door of the house in the back, I knocked on the door and said, "It's me, the 18th." ”

After a while, someone inside opened the door, and everyone entered the living room of the house, where there were two young men also dressed in local clothes.

Number 18 introduced: "This is the survivor of the CIA's branch in Aleppo, and now there are only three of us. ”

The crowd nodded to the two of them.

18Then he pointed to the table behind him and said, "I will prepare some food for you, which is eaten by the locals, and it will be eaten during the war." I think it's better than your military food. ”

Yang Fan walked to the table and saw that there was a lot of food on it. There are about 20 round pieces of noodles on a plate, Yang Fan feels a bit like Huaxia baked cakes or naan and the like, there are some cooked meat in the middle pot, and next to it is a pot of soup, which seems to be the kind of fig boiled with the kind that the locals usually drink.

As the 18th said, although simple, it is better than their military food.

Yang Fan: They had eaten on the plane, but they were not very hungry now. However, according to past experience, the next meal may be after the end of the mission, so everyone picked up the utensils and ate.

Chapter 19: Infiltrating the Village (

Tips:

Yang Fan found that there was another room on the left side of the living room, and through the curtains, he could see the computer screen flickering inside, which should be the temporary information station on the 18th.

On the 18th, seeing that everyone had basically finished eating, he lit a cigarette for himself, and came over and said, "Eric is now in a village behind us, not too far away. We need to climb over a hill and we should be able to see the little village.

There is also very bad news for everyone, the ghost team seems to have known about your arrival, and should not know your specific identity yet, only that the United States hired a team to rescue Eric.

We have to act quickly, because if the Syrian military gets involved, then we are likely to be on the back foot. ”

The Condor picked up his 4A1 rifle and said, "If you don't have any doubts, then let's go now, the longer we delay, the worse it will be for us!" After finishing speaking, he looked at Yang Fan.

"Okay, let's go." Yang Fan also nodded.

Led by the 18th, the group headed north, over the hill, and came to a hidden position on the hillside. The village is already in sight, 2 km due north.

The village is small in size, with a maximum of 100 households, and the houses are very densely built and neat, with several roads in the middle of the houses that can cross the entire village.

About 800 meters to the west of the village is a bare hill, and the other three directions are all fields that have been abandoned for a long time, and there are traces of the fields that have been renovated not long ago, forming small mounds of earth, but obviously not for crops.

The vulture raised his binoculars to observe the situation ahead and asked, "18th, where do you think the ghost team will hide?" ”

No. 18 was also observing the situation in the village, and said, "The surrounding area of the village, except for the hill to the west, is not easy to hide. I think they should be hiding in the village, and there's a good chance that the sniper was hiding on that hill to the west. ”

"Bullseye, Blood Eagle, have you found anything?" Vulture asked.

"Captain, that hill is basically a barren mountain, but it's too easy to hide a sniper. If he didn't shoot, it would have been very difficult for us to find him. Bullseye said.

"That's right, the sniper is very good at hiding. Until we find him, it will be dangerous for us to approach the village directly. Number 18 said.

Yang Fan thought for a while and said, "Captain Condor, I think we should contact T3, I want to know the movements of the Syrian military." They weren't in our plans, and now it seems like we're going to have to face them and the Ghost Squad at the same time. ”

"Okay, understood." Falcon took a few steps back and began to contact T3 via radio.

"Newcomer, how do you think we should approach the village?" Vulture said.

Yang Fan thought for a while and said, "That's it, the joint team will go down with 4 people first, plus the 18th, a total of 5 people, we have to leave one by one." Then move Hurricane and Sir forward to the hand-built mound on the east side of the village, just enough to avoid the snipers on the hill to the west and cover the village. In the event of a failure of our operation, cover our retreat.

The hill to the west is not a good place to hide, and we can spot the sniper as soon as he fires.

I'm sure the sniper didn't dare to reveal his position easily, he didn't know how many of us were.

Since they already knew about our arrival, they must have known that we also had snipers, and I believe that they would look for the best opportunity to attack, or he was just here to keep an eye and inform the people inside. ”

"I can only try." "We don't know where the snipers are right now, and time is too important for us to wait," Sokolov said.

The hill is about 1,600 meters away, and unless we have reached the village, the sniper may not be able to snipe us, but the Blood Eagle has this ability, which is our advantage! ”

Falcon walked over to T3 after talking and said, "I've been contacted by the intelligence department." Bad news, the Ghost Squad hired a very powerful hacker and released a false message that the CIA had hired a team with the main goal of destroying the evidence found by Eric.

They are cunning and do not specify which squad, so the Syrian side cannot confirm it either. The movements of the military are not yet clear. ”

"Sure enough, it's very cunning, and it's so vague. Actually, our goal is only to bring back Eric, and as for destroying the evidence, that's not our mission. Vulture said.

"It's not clear what the military is doing, and that's not good for us," Kevin said. Maybe they've already sent a small part of their troops, and we can't wait any longer. ”

"Alright, let's act!" Yang Fan looked at the vulture and said, "Captain vulture, please choose two people to go in with us, preferably if you can understand Arabic." ”

"No problem, Knives and Rocks come down with us. Rock used to be a mercenary in the Middle East, and he knew Arabic. Vulture said.

"Okay, I'll go first! Then there is the rock, the sharp knife, the 18th, and the condor captain comes to the palace. Halfway through the Condor, Sir and Hurricane immediately move towards the mound to the east of the village. The rest of the people were on guard, ready to cover us when they saw the situation. Yang Fan said.

"Understood." The crowd replied.

Yang Fan was the first to rush down the hillside and move towards the village as fast as he could. He could feel the murderous aura coming from the western hillside, where there must be an ambush of snipers, but Yang Fan was sure that he would not shoot.

Sure enough, as Yang Fan guessed, he came to the edge of the village safely and hidden.

Then came the rock, the knife, the 18th, and the vulture, and Kevin and Lockrov moved to their assigned positions. The rock sneaks into a house to find out the news.
