Chapter 60: The Secret Battle of the West Garden
Three helicopters hovered over the ridge and waited, and one Mi-8, under the cover of two Mi-24s, had already entered the attack position. The two Mi-24s adjusted their positions and were about to launch an attack on anti-aircraft machine gun positions and other air defense facilities in the fortress. At this time, the six helicopters of the first and second echelons were all within the attack range of hand-held anti-aircraft missiles on the mountain.
Colonel Sakhatov's plane was in a higher position at this time, and he observed the lighted fortress in the dark, and a sense of pride rose in his chest.
However, just as he gave the order to "attack," on the mountainside below, as if fireworks were set off during a festival, more than a dozen "blowpipe" or "needle-piercing" missiles, almost at the same time, dragged their tail flames, took off into the air, and swooped down on the group of planes.
The four Chinese Type 54 12.7mm machine guns of the anti-aircraft company also rained down dense bullets, all of which hit three helicopters.
The three helicopters that were about to enter the attack position, due to the narrow space and could not dodge, were all directly hit and exploded in the air. In the dark night sky, it was suddenly like a huge fireworks explosion, splitting apart and falling into the sky. The three helicopters on standby behind were urgently raised to avoid the attack, but another Mi-24P was directly hit by an anti-aircraft missile and exploded.
All four anti-aircraft machine guns also turned their guns and fired heavily at the escaped Mi-24P and Mi-8. The rain of bullets dragged the red tracer light and hit the belly of the plane, and in an instant, clusters of sparks gnawed at steel.
The moment the ground anti-aircraft missile was lifted into the air, Colonel Sakhatov realized for the first time with sadness that the attack had failed. He immediately gave a mournful loud order, "Quickly retreat and get out of the battlefield!" Quickly retreat and get out of the battlefield!! ”
But it was too late, as the bullets from the anti-aircraft machine guns clanged the helicopter's protective armor and scattered the crew and commando soldiers in the plane. In the entire fleet, only the Mi-24P piloted by Colonel Klyudeyev and the Mi-8 ridden by Colonel Sakhatov escaped doom.
The intent of the raid was revealed, and they did not hesitate at all and quickly withdrew from the battlefield.
The Mi-8 quickly turned around and flew along the ridge towards the outside of the pass, exiting the dangerous airspace. The only Mi-24P piloted by Colonel Klyudeyev was at a safe distance of about 2,000 meters from the mountainside, and relying on his superb driving skills, while avoiding the dense rain of anti-aircraft machine guns, he used 30-millimeter machine guns and S-24 rockets to violently bombard the positions of the air defense company halfway up the mountain.
This is a very difficult and dangerous attack action at night, and the heavy machine gun is aimed at fire, with high bullet speed and high power. If the engine or tail is hit, the plane can still crash with injuries. But Colonel Kryudeyev did not hesitate, driving the only Mi-24P, constantly bombarding the air defense positions in constant evasive maneuvers.
Although the two air defense companies urgently concealed themselves and changed positions, they were unable to evade the area halfway up the hill and were unable to evade them, and they were still blown up by artillery shells and rocket shells, causing heavy casualties. Heavy bombardment also affected pond fish, and tribal villages and refugee tents from the mountainside to the foot of the mountain were partially destroyed by rocket explosions. Fortunately, the army had already evacuated the population before the war, and there were no large casualties among the people.
The Halal country has long been under the threat of war, and the military literacy of the army is first-class. Even under heavy bombardment, all the anti-aircraft machine gun positions were destroyed, but the only anti-aircraft machine gun that was not blown up still spat out from time to time. At the same time, several more hand-held missiles, braving a hail of bullets, flew towards the Mi-24P. Unfortunately, due to the distance, Colonel Kryudeyev made a slight maneuver, and the Mi-24P dodged the attack.
The Mi-24P has strong protection, 12.7 mm machine gun rounds, which will only hurt if they hit the engine or tail unit. At this moment, the Mi-24P's position is too high, the distance is too far, and it is facing the position, so it can only hit its belly, and there are sparks. The warriors gritted their steel teeth, but they couldn't help it.
As a last resort, the air defense company had to abandon the bodies of its comrades, take the wounded, and quickly retreat down the mountain.
Colonel Kryudeyev was already enraged, and he did not give up, and the Mi-24P chased after the air defense company and beat him fiercely, only to finish the shells and rockets, and then turned and left. At this time, most of the two anti-aircraft companies had been killed or wounded, and they were completely incapacitated.
The entire air battle lasted less than half a minute.
When the Mi-24P attacked the air defense position, the four searchlights at the fort's anti-aircraft fire point illuminated the sky over the fortress and the hill as if it were daylight, and the anti-aircraft guns and eight antiaircraft machine guns in the fortress all fired intensively into the air to form a dense fire network to prevent the aircraft group from taking advantage of the gap to attack the fortress.
However, the distance was too far, and these air defense facilities could not provide effective cover for the air defense company, and most of the comrades died in battle, and finally Colonel Kryudeyev drove the plane out of the battlefield safely.
Soon, the battlefield fell silent, and only the freight yard outside the fortress was still blazing with fire and thick smoke. The fire burned until the afternoon of the next day, when it was completely extinguished. At this time, hundreds of tons of arms and equipment had already been burned.
The thrilling air battle, which took place in the early hours of the morning, was not reported by either side. Polar bears are secretly fighting in the territory of the Halal Country, and they are at a loss. Although the losses were heavy, they naturally could not report. And the Halal country does not want and does not dare to directly and openly confront the superpowers. Besides, if you make a lot of money, you just have to steal the fun, and you don't want to keep it a secret.
Peshawar has more spies and more journalists.
In the aftermath of the explosion, although the Army had cordoned off the entire area of operations, countless journalists still managed to rush to the edge of the mountain pass gorge. The world's major news agencies were quick to report the attack on the cargo yard and the destruction of a large number of munitions. Only one Arab news agency reported the news of the great air battle that took place on the Khyber Hill in the early morning, but it did not know the details at all.
At five o'clock in the morning, General Moore personally informed the brothers of the outcome of the battle.
At the same time, it was specifically reported that Taylor had been arrested, and that he would be put in prison. When General Moore finished excitedly talking on the confidential phone call, Delhi, who answered the phone, told him that the brothers' squad was not in the lair, and Captain Yu asked General Moore to send capable personnel to the Xiyuan apartment in Peshawar New Town at six o'clock to receive more than a dozen "lightning" prisoners.
Moore had the phone in his hand and was so shocked that he almost got out of his hand. "Lightning" is hidden in Taylor's house, why didn't anyone give me a little ventilation before?!
"Repeat, where's the 'lightning'?!" Moore roared.
Delhi trembled and repeated it again, and as soon as Moore threw the phone away, the whole man quickly became furious into a lion.
This Captain Ishaar, why didn't he leak any news beforehand? Do you still need to keep it secret from me, the head of the ISI? Does she still have me as the director in her eyes?!
But then, the old thing laughed sinisterly again. Isn't this what makes Ishal reliable, Taylor can defect, the stakes are high, she chooses to keep it absolutely secret, and there is nothing wrong with it. After Taylor's downfall, Moore was worried about choosing an ISI commander in Peshawar, and now he suddenly felt a bright future.
At this time, the brother squad is indeed not in the lair.
They had completely occupied the Xiyuan Mansion and quickly subdued the stewards and servants. Of these people, only the butler made a symbolic resistance. After waking up, the fat pig reached out and took out a pistol from under the pillow, raised his hand and shot it, and with a bang, the bullet flew past Lin Tao's neck. Let Lin Zhumin shake his hand and pierce his arm. Then, Hamad and others rushed up and tied them up tightly.
Lin Tao was angry, and he beat me again. He carried the tall, fat butler and beat him up to relieve his hatred. Lin Zhumin also moved, this dog's day looked directly at himself, and the sound of dying and alive that day stimulated Lin Zhumin's little face to blush, and he took a big cold shower, and finally put out the fire.
The housekeeper was beaten by the two of them, and at first he howled like a pig, but soon he only had air intake, not air out. When he threw it on the ground, he was left humming weakly.
Liu Guodong wore a gas mask, opened the basement door, and when he entered, more than a dozen people inside, including two prostitutes, were sleeping sweetly. Everyone maintained a bedtime posture, which was extremely vivid. The team all went into the basement and tied them up one by one. And the radio station, satellite phone, documents, passwords, etc. were searched one by one.
The results of careful inspection surprised Liu Guodong.
"Oh my God! Boss, it's a good thing you decided to use the drug, and if you attack, this beautiful castle manor will be completely destroyed! Liu Guodong said in shock.
These "Vympel" killers, deep behind enemy lines, have no intention of returning alive. They secretly planted explosive devices in their underground bedrooms, and they were extremely secretive. Each member of the team can detonate it delicately in an emergency, so as to die with the enemy, and never let the opponent be captured alive.
And even if they lose the ability to resist, they can die by biting on the poison contained in the dentures.
Yu Songyuan was also greatly shocked, and the scene of General Oginets, Colonel Molotov, and more than a dozen members of the "Lightning" team of the KGB C who committed suicide by swallowing poison is still in front of him. This fearless spirit of seeing death as home, coupled with their formidable assault ability, will make this stealthy iron-blooded team famous all over the world in the future.
In Taylor's bedroom on the second floor, a batch of documents were found, and the dollar was 1780,000 and the rubles were more than 100,000. "There's a saying in China called 'eat inside and outside', and Taylor is a dog. This time, Old Moore couldn't spare him, and Allah couldn't spare him, and the bastard was dead. Sandra scolded hatefully, still unrecognizable.
Seeing that no one had touched the money in the safe, Sandra found a bag and packed most of the banknotes, leaving only a few tens of thousands of rupees. Yu Songyuan and the others looked at her puzzled, she carried the bag and said, "Our bureaucracy is very corrupt, and if this money is left, it will also be embezzled by the people who come to search." It is better to take it with us, as a fund for the activities of our brother team in Peshawar. ”
She said "our brothers' squad", not "your brothers' squad", it seems that this girl is also a member of the brothers' squad. This made the hearts of the four guys in the brother squad warm their hearts.
