509. Chapter 35 (3) A sense of foreboding
Saw off Captain Carney's men, and in a mountain col, the first man stopped the car.
Coming to the car, Yifei once again took out the map to confirm the route of action, from the early morning after the battle, but now at midnight, nearly a day has passed, although there are soldiers of the special police brigade guarding along the line, but the repulsed Lodi and others have not had a corresponding and new deployment until now, which is a bit abnormal, for their own people this too easy march, it is not that I feel bottomless, as time goes by, this kind of uneasiness in my heart is getting heavier and heavier.
"Gao Jian, Wan Kai, Dapeng, a few of you will lead people to release a cordon around, Lezi, Da Zhai, let's study the next course of action with Ukic."
As he spoke, he approached the off-road vehicle with the wreckage of the plane in the middle, and he pulled the rope to see if it was loose, and then he turned to the front of the car, spread out the satellite map on the car cover, and leaned down to study it carefully by the faint light of the flashlight.
Zhai Mingyi, Lezi and Ukiqi gathered around Yifei together.
"Ulkic, you see, this line is the mountain path we took when we came, and here we are now, and I wonder if there is any other way around the 11# defense highway that we want to bypass these two mountains to get to near this #11 defense highway that connects to the city."
Rather than trying to find another way now, he wants to avoid all possible risks as much as possible.
"In addition to the path you came from, there are actually two passages that can be passed, but there is basically no road there, basically through the dense forest and mountain streams, when we are fighting guerrillas, we are forced to go out of such a passage when we are cornered, I have walked back and forth several times, but these two passages are not as convenient as the road you took when you came, and they will go around a long distance, one of which can only be walked on foot, and the other road is similar to what we are walking now, this kind of car can barely pass through."
Ukich pointed to the map and indicated the location of the two passages, and it can be seen that the two passages pointed out by Ukich are submerged in the depths of the dense forest, and are not clearly shown on the satellite map.
"Da Zhai, Lezi, I want to change our return route, after we fought with Luo Di and the others early this morning, according to the distance, they should also be able to arrive at the nearest military base to that town around noon, that is, here, Ukic, this is still the front camp of Gru, right?"
Ukić looked at what they had marked on the map, confirmed the location, and then nodded and said:
"That's right, there's a Gru's barracks here, and his command post is nearby."
"Da Zhai, Lezi, I think so, Lodi has been chasing and intercepting us before, not for us, but for the Semonov we escorted, now we don't know whether Lodi and they really have the specific facts, when we were in the town this morning, when we exchanged Zhao Peng and Lodi for Qu Renhe, I saw the instinctive reaction of surprise on Lodi's face and limbs after he realized that Zhao Peng was a stand-in, This change of mind could not be manifested through the micro-movements of the body, so I suspect that until the last moment, Lodi did not figure out where Semonov was. ”
Da Zhai and Le Zi nodded, and Da Zhai said:
"Yes, he sensed the trick, but he probably didn't know the truth."
"Yes, after Lodi realizes that he has been deceived, the first thing to do is to go back and sort out what he missed at what point, and at the same time he will not relax his tracking and monitoring of us, he will suspect what the motive of our trip is, so I think he will still arrange surveillance personnel on the route we may pass, and the key layout and fortification location should be the path he has followed us and the surrounding area, from his return to Gru's base, and then sort out the past experience, It will take a process until he sorts out a bit of a clue to formulate a relative strategy and arrange the manpower, and it is already midnight, and by this time these preparations should have been arranged in place, and I want to change the return route, also to avoid its edge. ”
After listening to Yifei's words, several people were quiet for a while, and there was nothing wrong with avoiding its edge, but it may not be smooth sailing to find another way, in the case that the independent ~ army has almost controlled the entire territory of Kevo, and now it is safe to go either way, so after hearing Yifei's suggestion, several people stared at the map in front of them for a long time and were silent.
Suddenly, Leko, who had been lying on the lid of the machine staring at the map, suddenly looked left and right, and at the same time, he slowly straightened up.
"Ukich, did you have any ...... when you were fighting guerrilla here?"
Originally, Da Zhai wanted to ask Ukiqi if there were any relatively lax and weak passages in the independent ~ military control area, but before he could finish speaking, Le Zi raised his hand to stop Zhai Mingyi's words.
"Shhhh
Rakuko made a silent gesture.
Hearing the warning of the music, it was not that several people held their breath at the same time, and the surroundings suddenly became quiet again, and after this quiet, several people immediately noticed the strangeness, and several people invariably turned to the wooden box containing the wreckage of the plane that had been sealed.
A rhythmic, extremely faint 'beep, beep' sound came from the wooden box.
When Rear Admiral Bryant said that the signal appeared again, the entire conference room suddenly became nervous, and several commanders of the base who had hurriedly ended the meeting rushed to the integrated command and control center with Bryant, where several technical and staff personnel had gathered on a huge screen hanging on the wall of the tactical hall, and a small dot of light was flashing among many contour lines, surface building coordinates, trajectory arcs, and various running pictograms.
"Has there been any change in position since it reappeared?"
Bryant stared at the location where the cursor flashed, which, despite being adjacent to the base, was a relatively barren and remote mountainous area, and the intelligence showed that the place was closed to traffic, except for the rocky hills, which was a primeval forest, and was not very suitable for living and living.
"Nothing has changed, it reappeared, it moved some distance, according to the speed at which it was traveling, it should have been loaded on a vehicle such as a car, and now it has just stopped, the mountains there are covered with a lot of primitive plants, and the satellite imagery we are using now is not accurate enough to show what passages are there, and we don't know where the passages in these dense forests will lead."
It was Bryant's assistant, Major Henry, who pointed to the location shown by the cursor and introduced it to several of the base commanders.
"There is a small town closest to this location, the scale is not very large, but it is shown in satellite images, from the town you can see that there are several paths connecting to the outside world, but our positioning signal shows that the position is deviated from these paths, now we can't tell whether the vehicle transporting these equipment is lost, or there is another secret passage in that location that we don't know, but one thing is certain, even if there is indeed a small road there, I'm afraid it is hidden between the dense forests, and it is difficult for us to find, Therefore, it is impossible to know where the passage will eventually go. ”
Major Henry took the data that had just arrived, and briefly briefed Major General Bryant, the director of the control center, the commander of the air base, and the commander of the European theater of operations, Richardson, who was following the matter through video, all the information they could collect so far.
"I want to explain that the length of time of the two signals is not the same, the second time is significantly longer than the first, from the second time it appeared to the present, the positioning tracker we loaded on the navigation equipment has been in working condition, although the position coordinates of the locator have been interlaced in the middle of the two occurrences, but the trajectory direction of his operation is the same, we have marked the position displacement line of the two signals on the big screen, The middle break point is the period when the signal disappears, and we try to make a connection with the dotted line, and you can clearly see that the trajectory of the simulated operation when the signal disappears can smoothly connect the two confirmed displacement routes, and this simulated operation dashed line happens to cross a mountain range, and this not short dotted line effectively connects the base with the outside world, we guess that this is a secret passage to the perimeter of the base, but our intelligence agencies, including our allies, No one knew that there was such a passage at the bottom of the mountain. ”
Speaking of this, the staff officer looked at several of his superiors in the room, waiting for their reactions.
"Major, what is your conclusion?"
Bryant looked at his assistant with approval in his eyes, and he encouraged Major Henry to speak up about the judgment he had drawn later.
"Between the barren mountains, I would like to say that the speed of this movement is not slow, and through the calculation of the trajectory we can determine that the time when the signal disappeared was not human interference, but was transferred underground, and the tunnel located at the bottom of the mountain shielded the signal from being sent outward, but the shielding of the signal did not affect its running speed, so we can conclude that these sensitive, confidential equipment are being transferred rapidly, and what we cannot be sure of now is that after this pause, If it is transferred to the underground again in the near future, then we will face a blank period of monitoring, and we are not sure that the escort personnel transporting these things will not find this positioning device, although the location of its installation is very hidden, but the external transmission of this pulse signal is not in an absolutely silent state of operation, the pulse signal of this locator will have a fixed transmission frequency and sound, in a quiet state, The human ear can easily pick up this sound, so it is possible that the other party's escort will be aware of the anomaly and take steps to remove the positioning device. ”
