Chapter 298: The gutter capsizes
Abbas was taken aback by this sight, and hurriedly whispered to his subordinates that there was a helicopter flying at a low altitude in front of him.
A group of subordinates were also surprised, they had never heard of a helicopter in the "Young Believers" organization! Where is the helicopter going to fly so low on this big night?
While they were whispering, a flashlight suddenly appeared on the hill in front of them, shining a few times at the helicopter, and the helicopter immediately slowed down and began to slowly approach the mountain.
Abbas felt even more strange when he saw someone on the top of the mountain with a flashlight, and secretly thought that the butcher and his gang had overheard some news and were about to flee in the middle of the night.
At this thought, he hurriedly half-squatted down and observed with a telescope for a moment, the distance he was at was not far from Li Qingcang and them, that is, a little more than 1 kilometer away, and it was a little higher than the mountain they were on.
In the low-light imaging telescope, I found that there were seven people standing on the hill in front of me waving to the slowly approaching helicopter, their faces were too far away and the reason for the night was not clear, but they were dressed in authentic Arabic clothes.
Abbas felt a wave of ecstasy in his heart, believing in his heart that these people must be the leaders of the young believers. After being killed, Jasé tried to sneak away.
In fact, it is no wonder that he thinks this way, at this time, the "Young Believers" organization was still in its infancy, not the later famous "Houthis" armed group, both in terms of personnel and weapons and equipment are far from reaching the level of discoloration that the international community talks about, so it is not surprising that Abbas thought it was a butcher when he saw a helicopter flying to the territory of the young believers to pick up people, and these leaders wanted to escape.
Since the leader of the Young Believers, who was supposed to be the leader, was going to flee by helicopter, Abbas immediately ordered one of his soldiers, Fisher, to unload the Stinger missiles he was carrying and prepare to shoot down the helicopter.
PS: (The "Stinger" missile was originally developed by the US Army Rocket Agency, and belongs to the second generation of the US military's man-portable surface-to-air short-range air defense missile. The "Stinger" became famous during the invasion of Afghanistan by the former Soviet Union, when the Afghan guerrillas used 340 "Stingers" to shoot down 269 former Soviet warplanes, making them famous and becoming a sought-after commodity in the international arms market, but the "Stingers" used by this squad were used by Saudi Arabia to support Yemeni President Saleh. )
A deputy captain on the side reminded: "Sir, General Aziz ordered us to go to the Taiz tribe to make laser guidance for missiles, it's not good for us to act on our own initiative, right?" ”
Abbas asked rhetorically: "Amir, the main purpose of the general calling us here is to kill these leaders of the young believers, do you think that at this time, a helicopter will come to pick up people in their control area, isn't it the butcher that these leaders want to escape?" ”
Amir said helplessly: "I just want to remind you that since you think these people are the leaders of the young believers, then I have no objection, but I think it is best for you to report to the general." ”
Abbas glanced at the helicopter that was slowly landing, with a decisive look on his face, and said categorically: "It's too late, it will take at least a few minutes to report to the general, this helicopter looks like it's about to land and pick up people, let's take advantage of the helicopter to land and knock it down, and then go over and catch these guys, isn't it easy to say anything, if it's a butcher, we can go back the same way now, whether it's capturing them alive or killing them, it's a great achievement!" Amir. ”
Amir thought about it, and the dozen or so people on his side were all ace soldiers in the hands of General Aziz, and they were all covered with American-style equipment, so it should not be a problem to deal with the heads of six or seven young believers, so he immediately agreed to Abbas's suggestion.
Seeing that no one objected to his suggestion, Abbas picked up his telescope again and observed.
Seeing that the helicopter was hovering over the hill and that the men were boarding the plane in turn, Abbas turned to Fisher and nodded.
Fisher immediately put the stinger on his shoulder, opened the missile's own sight and began to aim, and after a while, the prompt that the missile had locked onto the target sounded, Fisher pressed the power switch, and the small rocket in the launch canister immediately pushed the missile to fly out of ten meters, and the main solid rocket ignited, and a dazzling orange-red light burst out in the dark night, and swooped down like a meteor towards the black hawk piloted by the radar.
Radar was in a happy mood at this time, joking with Li Qingcang and Catherine, who had just climbed onto the plane, "I said that you two are both male and female, why did you get a jackpot in the eyes of the ghost this time?" ”
Li Qingcang said with a smile: "My marksmanship is as powerful as a ghost's eye, he is our iron-blooded number one spear god." ”
Radar shook his head and said, "Then you're too modest, what the...... There are missiles! "As the radar screamed, the missile approaching warning inside the Black Hawk helicopter suddenly emitted a dazzling red light and a piercing alarm.
Li Qingcang and Catherine were also shocked, and at the same time looked out the window, only to see a fire dragon rushing towards them.
Radar desperately pulled up the joystick, trying to improve the helicopter to dodge, and at the same time reached out to release the chaff jamming bomb, but he was afraid of accidentally injuring his comrades standing on the edge of the cabin and made him give up this idea.
The demon who had just stepped onto the door of the plane also shook his head and yelled at Li Qingcang, "Jump down." After saying that, he reflexively ran out, and shouted at the captain and others on the side while running desperately: "Run, the missile is coming." ”
The captain and the others hurriedly turned around and ran away when they heard this, and no one would stand stupidly by the helicopter and wait for death at this time.
Li Qingcang was the first to get on the plane, and he happened to be sitting in the direction close to where the missile was flying, and when he saw the missile flying, the first reaction in his and Catherine's minds was to quickly jump out of the helicopter.
However, the radar's response was too fast, and it directly pulled the helicopter with the nose facing upwards, trying to dodge the missile.
As a result, Catherine and Li Qingcang, who stood up, lost their balance and fell on the floor of the helicopter's cabin.
Li Qingcang was also anxious at this time, seeing Catherine fall, knowing that if she was hit by a missile, it would be absolutely over, and she couldn't care so much, so she reached out and grabbed Catherine's belt, and waved to the hatch with all her strength, throwing her far away.
Catherine's whole body flew like a cloud. At the same time, Li Qingcang kicked himself to the door of the cabin with the strength of his feet, and then slapped the cabin floor with his palm, and also bounced out of the fuselage.
At the same time, the Stinger missile had also flown to the front, but fortunately, the radar desperately pulled up the nose of the plane, and there was a deafening explosion with a "boom", and a huge spark lit up in the night sky. The missile that was originally aimed at the cockpit hit the tail boom, directly blowing the helicopter in two, and the metal fragments that were blown out flew in all directions.
Li Qingcang was in mid-air, facing this powerful modern thermal weapon, at this life-and-death juncture, even if he had a peerless martial art, there was nothing he could do.
He only tried to shrink his body and reduce the volume, only to feel a heat wave around his body, and then countless fragments flew around him, and the entire back and limbs were in sharp pain, and his ears were like opening a water and land dojo, "clang" sounded, and the Venus in front of him was popping up, but he couldn't see anything clearly, and his heart was bored, and he had to muster internal force to protect his body in a hurry, and then there was a darkness in front of him, and he didn't know anything.
The radar also reacted very quickly, and in such a short period of time, the nose of the helicopter was forcibly raised, avoiding the cabin being hit by a missile, and letting the stinger missile launched at close range hit a non-vital position, without letting the missile blow the helicopter at once.
However, the radar was also stunned by the explosion and loud noise of the connecting module in the cockpit, and if it weren't for the helicopter inner wall and thick flight seat to block him, this explosion would definitely kill him.
The pilot was dizzy, and the helicopter suddenly lost control and went to the ground, but fortunately, it was only one or two meters above the ground, and there was no explosion after landing, but the helicopter lost its balance after becoming two.
The main propeller and the propeller on the tail were tilted to one side, and all of them were rowed to the ground, carving a large spark and countless deep grooves in the bare stone, and then burst apart, flying around the hill with a strange "woo" wind.
The captain and other people who didn't get on the helicopter, as early as when the explosion sounded, these veterans were lying on the ground, all of them clinging to the ground, eager to get into the soil, so they were lucky to avoid the sickle-like fragments of death.
Catherine was thrown off the helicopter by Li Qingcang, but her head just hit a stone, because this time she was dressed as a civilian and entered without a combat steel helmet, Xiao Nizi fainted without saying a word, but the fainted person also lay on the ground and did not get up, but was not hit by the debris splashed from the helicopter.
When Li Qingcang jumped off the helicopter, the helicopter had been hit by a missile, although he tried to roll up his body and bury his head in his arms, but his back and limbs were inevitably hit by the scattered debris, fortunately, he also used his internal strength at that time, and the defense of his muscles was also strong to the terrifying realm, plus he was wearing a bulletproof vest, so he was not killed on the spot.
But after all, the power of the missile is not something that flesh and blood can resist, so he was stunned in mid-air, and after falling, he lay on the ground motionless, and inadvertently dodged the fragment of the propeller that chased the soul.
Seeing that he had hit his target, Abbas happily slapped his palms with Fisher, signaling that he had played well.
After raising the binoculars and observing for a while, he saw that the helicopter did not catch fire and exploded, so he excitedly ordered, "Rush over to see if there are any live mouths, and capture two prisoners." ”
When the others heard this, they were all elated, and rushed towards the opposite hill with their Israeli-made Galil assault rifles in their hands (this gun is suitable for use in the desert, and the standard scope has a day and night aiming function).
The captain and the others waited until the explosion stopped and the strange whistling of debris flying overhead disappeared, and then they got up one by one.
