After checking the injuries of the team member and giving him some simple medicine, we continued to help him and began to move towards the depths of the city, and at this moment, the sky has entered the deepest black, but for a special operations team like ours that goes deep behind enemy lines, the night is the best cover for us, on the contrary, the day is the time when we are most exposed.

As we moved, we searched for a hidden place to rest, ready to go out by day.

In fact, at the very beginning of this exercise, the task of our small detachment was to go deep behind enemy lines to create chaos and find an opportunity to inflict huge damage on the enemy, so even if we were not on the frontal battlefield, it would not matter much, after all, we were a whole special operations brigade, and what we needed to do was to give the enemy a headache and let them catch fire in their backyard!

After about an hour of progress, we found a construction site under construction again, and without alerting all the construction workers and doormen, we sneaked in, found a floor with a relatively open vision, and tied a few ropes in several places outside the building just in case, and at the same time arranged for guards, and the others took shifts to rest and recuperate.

After everything was arranged, except for the vigilant team members, the others gathered together again, discussing and preparing for the next move.

After Lao Mao spread the map on the ground, he took out a pen from his backpack and drew on the map, but just as Lao Mao was about to speak, a member of the team who was in charge of guarding the roof of the building ran down.

"There's a convoy!"

All eyes were immediately on him.

"A convoy has just passed by, there are radar vehicles, command vehicles and assault vehicles, depending on the scale, at least the command system of a squadron!" The team member then continued.

"Where?" Lao Mao immediately asked.

"Just passed us not far away, and it looks like we're heading northeast!" The team member replied.

When Lao Mao heard this, he immediately jumped up and ran towards the top of the building. A few minutes later, he hurried down again. "Comrades! Good news! We've found the enemy's chain of command, which looks like it's at least the size of a squadron! Lao Mao said as he took a pen and drew on the map.

"Right here!" After Lao Mao drew a few strokes, he took the pen and poked it in an underground parking lot with no markings.

"Right watch!" Lao Mao raised his wrist, and the rest of our team members also raised their wrists, unlike ordinary people, our watch mirror is not worn on the back of the hand, but on the inside of the wrist, which is also to prevent the reflection from exposing the target.

"It's 1:12 a.m., about 6 kilometers away from the target, hurry up and rest! All of them depart at 5 o'clock! Go to the target location and perform a decapitation operation! Lao Mao said while looking at his watch.

The public security special police are actually similar to our troops, and the time to get up in the morning is basically the same, and at this time, their convoy has just returned, just in case, and in order to let our team members get mental and physical replenishment, Lao Mao chose to let us rest for a few hours first.

At the same time, the team members in charge of vigilance have also been reorganized, in order to let everyone have a better rest, it is also from the regular two-hour shift to an hour-long shift, each shift of two team members, one is responsible for guarding downstairs in us, and one is responsible for observing the enemy's movements on the top floor.

The so-called "decapitation operation" usually refers to a targeted killing operation carried out against the main commander of the enemy army. There are two main theoretical sources: one is the "paralyzing attack" proposed by the British military scientist John Frederick Charles Fuller, that is, through the focused attack on the enemy's command system, the enemy loses the ability to organize battles;

The second is the "five-ring theory" of US Air Force Colonel Wharton, who regards the "leadership ring" as the core of the first ring, which is the first target to be targeted after the start of the war.

In war, in order to carry out "decapitation", several conditions must be met. The first is to grasp accurate information, know where the local headquarters and commanders are, and do a good job of confidentiality. Second, it is necessary to have the ability to strike accurately and quickly, and to be able to launch a surprise attack on the enemy's command organs without warning; The third is to have an overall judgment and estimate the impact of the "beheading" and how to deal with it. Only when the above points are met together can the "decapitation operation" be successful.

Since the Munich massacre, Western forces, led by Israel and the United States, have pushed the decapitation operations in modern warfare to new heights. The most important place in decapitation operations is to be fast, precise, and to eliminate high-value targets such as the head of a hostile force in the smallest possible military operation. A decapitation operation is usually preceded by extensive pre-reconnaissance and careful tactical deployment.

Israel's assassination of Abu Jihad:

In 1972, the Palestinian militant organization "Black September" created the "Munich Massacre" and killed 11 Israeli athletes, and Israel immediately launched a retaliatory "Operation Heaven's Punishment". According to the "death list," "Mossad" intelligence agents assassinated a number of high-ranking PLO figures related to the terrorist attacks in Italy, France, Lebanon, and other countries by planting explosives and shooting them.

For example, Israel's assassination of Abu Jihad, as early as 1983, Mossad agents began to monitor Abu Jihad, and the Israeli military intelligence agency Oman even sent three intelligence officers, including a beautiful female agent, to directly infiltrate Fatah to grasp Abu Jihad's whereabouts.

In April 1988, the Israeli Chief of Staff personally took command and was led by the Israeli Navy's frogmen, the reconnaissance team of the General Staff and the Mossad KIDON secret operation team, and planned the beheading of Abu Jihad, a key figure in Fatah. To carry out the beheading, Israel even rebuilt Abu Jihad's apartment 1:1 in Haifa, where a female intelligence officer said even the toilet was identical. After continuous training, in the end, this elite team of three departments can complete the cleaning of the entire building in 53 seconds.

Twenty-one Israeli commandos took a submarine and quietly landed on the coast of Tunisia, entered Jihad's residence, solved the guards, and left 75 bullets on Jihad.

The Israeli commandos videotaped the whole process, and then retreated, and the "decapitation" plan was a complete success.

Of all the "decapitation operations" launched by the US military, the most classic is undoubtedly Operation "Jerónimo" against bin Laden.

After the war in Afghanistan, in order to avoid the pursuit of the US military, bin Laden no longer used mobile phones and the Internet, but communicated with the outside world through messengers. Through continuous interrogation of prisoners of war, the U.S. military gradually learned of the courier's existence and true identity, and followed the courier to find out where bin Laden was hiding in Pakistan.

Before the U.S. Navy SEALs carried out the beheading operation against bin Laden, the CIA used various methods to figure out the internal and external structure of bin Laden's villa, and also built buildings of equal proportions for special training, which was accurate to the point that "there are not many steps".

In April 2011, the U.S. finally decided to take action based on existing intelligence. Twenty-four Navy SEALs in four Black Hawk helicopters evaded Pakistan's air defenses and landed abruptly in bin Laden's home, ending the operation in just 40 minutes, killing bin Laden himself.

Russia "beheaded" Dudayev:

Russia's 1996 "beheading" of Chechen independence leader Dudayev was also quite successful. In order to know Dudayev's location, the Russian government monitors the satellite phones used by Dudayev on the one hand; On the other hand, an informant was paid for $100 to determine Dudayev's hiding place. The last time Dudayev used a satellite phone for a long time, he was targeted by the Russian army and died from 2 air-to-surface missiles launched by fighter jets. When Yeltsin learned the news, he called the day a "grand festival." Dudayev's death dealt a major blow to the Chechen independence movement.
