It's very cold at night on the mountain, and small snowflakes have begun to fall, and they are all wearing thick clothes, still freezing through. Although the day was better, the sky was overcast, covered with thick clouds, and the cold wind in the canyon was howling and blowing, making people chill all over.

At lunchtime, behind a large leeward rock, Hamad lit a fire and heated the milk tea, and the three of them drank the hot tea and nibbled on the cold, dry and hard roasted naan. Shandra asked as she ate, "If they really want to attack from a distance, they must be approaching from a low altitude below the canyon, where is the army's sniper location arranged?" ”

"It doesn't have to come from inside the canyon, what we think of, they will definitely think of too." Lin Zhumin said.

Liu Guodong pointed to the mountains stretching on both sides of the canyon and said, "I measured it carefully, if their flying skills are good enough, with the super performance of the Mi-8 and Mi-24P, the most unexpected attack direction is the ridge under their feet." They flew close to the ridge, adjusted their direction next to the hill, and then, under the cover of the explosion in the freight yard, suddenly swooped straight into the fortress. The Mi-24P, with its 30mm cannon, can easily eliminate anti-aircraft machine gun anti-aircraft positions, and the Mi-8 will quickly land in the center of the fortress. This is the most terrible and impossible to prevent. ”

"Oh my God!" Sandra looked at him in surprise, "You're going to deploy anti-aircraft machine guns and anti-aircraft missiles halfway up the mountain?" ”

"I measured that if a few anti-aircraft machine guns and a company of hand-held missiles were hidden here, using the British 'blowpipe' or the 'needle stabbing' individual missile system of country M, they could be stopped from attacking from here into the canyon below. Of course, in the canyon, it is necessary to secretly deploy a few anti-aircraft machine guns and a 'needle-piercing' portable anti-aircraft missile company to be prepared. Liu Guodong said affirmatively.

Lin Zhumin voiced his doubts, "There are mountains on both sides here, and along the entire border, there are plateau mountains with an altitude of more than 3,000 meters. In the Khyber Pass Gorge and at the source of the Caola River valley behind the mountains, the army has an air defense battalion stationed there, where did the Mi-24P and Mi-8 cross the border, and how did they escape the range of the air defense battalion? ”

While Liu Guodong was busy, he said affirmatively, "This should not be difficult, the effective attack distance of the anti-aircraft machine gun is about 1,500 meters, and the attack range of the hand-held missile is even more limited, as long as it is 800 to 1,000 meters away, it is helpless." The two missile battalions defended the front for tens of kilometers, and at the same time the position was constantly changing, how did the Mi-24P and Mi-8 accurately evade it? This is a hole in the air defense of the Halal country, which needs to be understood. If you don't find out, there will be endless troubles. ”

"You have a point, it's a big discovery. Why can't the rotten bureaucracy, our air defense specialists, the generals who only make plans on the map, think of this? I will report back to General Moore as soon as possible and try to find this loophole. Sandra said.

Yu Songyuan and Lin Tao lived in the fortress at night, and when the night came, they basically didn't sleep, carefully experiencing the night environment of the fortress, and recording the changes in the wind direction at each hour of the night.

Liu Guodong, Lin Zhumin and Shandra lived halfway up the mountain, and the three members of Hamad's team were wrapped in military blankets and took turns to be on guard. Sandra couldn't stand it anymore, so she got into the tent and opened her sleeping bag for a nap.

The light snow fell a little heavier during the night, and there was already a thick layer of snow in the leeward. Liu Guodong and Lin Zhumin, wrapped in thick military blankets, stayed outside for three days and two nights in the wind and snow, carefully recording data such as light, air currents, and wind direction.

Sandra got up after a nap and lit a fire to heat the milk tea, so that they could drink the hot milk tea to ward off the cold.

It was only in the evening of the third day that the six of them returned to the trading compound. I haven't closed my eyes for a few days, but as soon as I see Xiao Bu Ali, everyone forgets about any fatigue. First grab one person and kiss for a while, hug for a while, and then make up for sleep.

Derry was listening to Taylor's every move and recording his every word.

Since in the compound of the trading company, has been completely free, little Ali and Zia. Gina was swinging in the yard, giggling with joy. The swing was specially arranged by Mao Yankai, and it was in the garden. Originally, Mao Yankai wanted to send him to Islamabad the next day to be temporarily raised by caterpillars. But Yu Songyuan suggested that it should be postponed and not let their mother and son be separated, so that Xie Rena could complete the task with more peace of mind.

Mao Yankai accepted Yu Songyuan's suggestion, Xiao Ali is the spiritual pillar of Xerna.

In the evening, Yu Songyuan and Lin Tao hugged Xiao Ali and discussed the plan in the war room. Zia, on the other hand, is well organized inside and out, and she, like Ali, seems to have been reborn and is full of power in everything she does.

Derry was wearing headphones and listening intently. Suddenly, Delhi took off the headphones first, secretly glanced at Yu Songyuan and Lin Tao, and put them on again, looking very uncomfortable.

Yu Songyuan came over to listen to it, it turned out that Taylor and Xerna were having sex, and the various voices transmitted through the radio waves were sensational and fragrant, which could kill all men with normal bodies in seconds.

Xerna is unleashing a soul hook that has made Taylor's IQ almost zero. Yu Songyuan only listened for a short while, and his blood surged up, and even his neck was hot. He threw away the headphones and ordered, "Listen closely, and record every word." ”

"Including...... Those words?"

"Yes, everything must be word-for-word." Yu Songyuan said with certainty.

Taylor, who is sanctimonious on the surface, has smoked marijuana at the moment, and still holds a goblet in his hand, which is a red European wine. When the love is strong, the two are entangled with selflessness under the crazy accompaniment of Arabic belly dance music. Delhi is an unmarried young man who wants to hear and is afraid that everyone will know that he is listening.

Everything that Delhi faithfully recorded gave Yu Songyuan a strange feeling, a sense of time and space confusion. The summons of prayer in the minaret of the mosque obscures the love of men and women in unknown corners of the city. Religious music coexists with love songs and dances, the burning of marijuana slowly releases men's desires, and women's veils can't hide their longing eyes.

Chaos and strangeness, war and peace, conflict and harmony, which of all these is more real? Peshawar is a city that seems to have come to a standstill under the heavy pressure of war. It is layered by history, shackled by religion, suppressed by tradition, and brutally shrouded in war.

A city with a long history of thousands of years, it has not bowed to the suffering of the moment.

Under the thick dark curtain of the clouds of war, a breath of fresh air still ripples, hope lurks in people's hearts, women still make themselves beautiful every day, children's smiles are still innocent and bright, naan and cake shops still make fresh snacks every morning, newspapers are full of war news and refugee reports, cinemas are full of Bollywood movie stars, and shops are full of fashionable clothes from China and the West......

Time is ticking, life is going on. This is a kind of quiet persistence, a kind of accumulation of time, a kind of regional characteristics and cultural taste, chaos, vicissitudes, tenacity, splendor and tranquility, must be savored carefully, slowly experienced, quietly aftertasted.

Shandra, Liu Guodong, and Lin Zhumin came back with the Hamad group, Liu Guodong didn't care about resting, so he and Lin Zhumin lay on the big sand table, and carefully made a model of the environment of the fortress and the surrounding mountains in equal proportions, "Boss and second, you all came to take a look, and you have completely figured it out." ”

"Pat left, pat right. Slap your head and kiss your little mouth! ”

Yu Songyuan was lying on the sofa, Ali was riding on his belly, and the two were playing the Chinese children's game "clap your hands, kiss your mouth", and the childish laughter like silver bells echoed in the basement. He hunched Ali to the model's side, "Have you found the most reliable attack position?" ”

"Yes. The three of us accurately observed at night, if it was between four and five o'clock in the morning, this hour, the light and air currents under the main peak were the most suitable for attacking. But after five o'clock, the wind direction changed, and the smoke from the explosion and violent combustion in the cargo yard would affect the line of sight, and the plane could not fly. ”

"Tell me more." Ali was already sleepy, so he lay on Yu Songyuan's head and took a nap. He handed Ali over to Zia to carry away, and Sandra, who was also napping on the couch, also came over.

Liu Guodong pointed to the sand table and the model and explained, "The airborne attack from the Khyber Mountain to the exit of the canyon was limited by the size of the aircraft group, which could only accommodate four Mi-24P gunships and two Mi-8 transport helicopters, and it was also divided into two attack echelons. Two Mi-8 helicopters can transport 48 fighters, exactly two groups. Four Mi-24P helicopter gunships provide fire support and air protection, while each can carry 12 fighters in the rear of the cabin, for a total of 48 soldiers. ”

"Under the main peak behind the fortress, if it moves stealthily against the ridge, only one Mi-8 and two Mi-24s are allowed to enter the field at the same time. That is, the entire attack must be divided into two waves. According to the speed of movement of the helicopter, in order to protect against anti-aircraft machine guns, it is necessary to maintain a distance of more than 1500 meters. In order to counter hand-held missiles, they must maintain a distance of 800-1000 meters in order to quickly escape the attack after launching the missile on the ground. ”

"Affected by the main peak and air currents, in order to ensure a smooth entry into the attack position, they must fly over the top of the mountain at a distance of 200-300 meters from the waist of the main peak, and then turn to lower the altitude before entering the position. The attack position was about 2,000 meters away from the fortress in a straight line, and during this time, the first group entered the attack, and the second group was on standby on the mountainside. When the first group cleared the anti-aircraft position and landed, the second group then followed up and entered the position to launch a second wave of attacks. ”

After Liu Guodong finished speaking, Yu Songyuan and Lin Tao already understood. Lin Tao said, "In other words, in the middle of the mountain at the entrance to the Khyber Pass Gorge, an anti-aircraft company can be ambushed and eaten by using anti-aircraft machine guns and hand-held missiles." The interior of the canyon valley cannot be ignored, and it is necessary to prevent them from feints and turns into main attacks. ”
