Chapter 772: Kingfisher's Destruction

readx;

Six large propellers, piercing the dusky sky, at a height almost close to the ground, a CH-53 helicopter, flying carefully, the thick fuselage, quickly flashed in the sky, this is the Sea Stallion helicopter produced in the United States, the nationality information on the plane, has been smeared. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info≦≧

They had been flying for almost two hours, the fuselage of the helicopter was jolting, and the armed men inside the fuselage were resting motionless with their eyes closed.

Each of them wore camouflage paste, similar to the color of the clothes on their bodies, and they would blend into the desert background, which would be beneficial to their movements, and they had all kinds of weapons in their hands, and the only thing that could reveal their identity was probably the tattoo of the little kingfisher in a very inconspicuous place on the shoulder below the neck.

Yes, they are Israel's most elite special forces, the Kingfisher Special Forces!

They are the best fighters in the Israeli Army, and after layers of selection, they have entered this unit that represents the highest glory, and each of them feels proud that they have undergone the most rigorous training and are capable of completing the most dangerous missions.

Although they have had the experience of defeat, and their generals have been arrested for their failures, they are still full of fighting spirit, and Israel's first loss in the conflict last year has made every Jew hold their strength in their hearts. ≦≧ they need a heart-wrenching battle to prove their mettle.

This time, from the base, they flew the helicopter over the Mediterranean Sea, entered on the border with Syria in northern Lebanon, and then flew at an ultra-low altitude all the way to the east, landing in the inaccessible eastern part of Syria.

There, they will complete a special task.

Syria's air defense forces are far less powerful than Iraq's, and Syria attaches the most importance to the Damascus region, where most of its air defense forces are deployed, so they enter from the sea at an ultra-low altitude and are not detected by Syrian air defense radars.

However, this also led to the fact that the range of their planes was not enough, and they were already flying with the maximum amount of fuel, so they still had to let their troops walk dozens of kilometers on foot, and at that time, it was just getting dark to facilitate their movements.

"Attention, the landing area is about to arrive. ≦≧" came from the cabin the words of the captain in the cockpit in front.

The personnel, who had been asleep a moment ago, were suddenly in high spirits, and they quickly strapped their equipment on their backs, ready to make the final preparations.

"For Israel's sake, bravely go to the warhead!" After the captain finished speaking, the cabin door opened, and the plane was already hovering a few meters above the ground.

The ropes on both sides were thrown out, and the fighters of the skilled kingfisher special forces, in a graceful posture, slipped off the ropes.

The two people who slid down first immediately fanned out to guard the landing site here, and then the others also slid down.

They were a small detachment of fifteen men, each of whom carried a man's backpack with their supplies and ammunition, and one of them also carried a radio station to communicate with the rear.

After the plane landed, the helicopter flew away, and they will return here again at this time tomorrow to pick up their own personnel.

For the remaining twenty-four hours, the Kingfisher special forces squad needed to complete the mission alone without any support. ≦≧

However, the commander who led the team this time, Captain Golani, did not feel that this was such a difficult task, since the establishment of the Kingfisher special forces, they have been carrying out various battles deep behind enemy lines, and this time, where they are going, there are no regular Syrian troops within two hundred kilometers around, and by the time the Syrians find out that the abnormality is abnormal, they have already run away.

"Attention, following the predetermined route, we move forward." Captain Golani said, gesturing at the same time.

This small detachment of fifteen people quickly disappeared into the reckless central region of Syria.

Treading on the dead branches on the ground, stepping on the wild grass that no one has walked on, they are moving towards their goal.

The night was getting dark, and all the people were wearing night vision devices, an expensive device that belonged only to the most elite troops like them.

After walking for another two hours, in the eyepiece of the green night vision device, the outline of the thing appeared.

That long, stout tube, with no end in sight, is their goal!

It is an oil pipeline with black metal flowing in it. ≦≧

In the Saddam era, although Assad and Saddam Hussein were not at odds, Syria still agreed to build an oil pipeline in Syria from the Kirkuk oil field in northern Iraq to the Syrian port of Baniyas for oil export.

Kirkuk oil field was one of the main oil fields in Iraq at that time, because it was in northern Iraq, so it was very inconvenient for Iraq to export oil, from Kirkuk to Basra, and from Kirkuk through Syria to the Mediterranean Sea about the same distance, and if you go to Syria, you can directly transport oil to the Mediterranean, the road is much closer, and there is no need to cross the Persian Gulf, the danger of being blocked exports will be minimized.

Therefore, the construction of this pipeline began, and when it was completed, 200,000 barrels of crude oil per day would be transported directly from here to the Mediterranean.

Historically, this pipeline has not been opened for a long time, and after the start of the Iran-Iraq war, the oil pipeline was completely shut down in 1982, and it has not been opened until later generations. ≦≧

And now, because of Qusay's crossing, there is a discrepancy with history again, and the pipeline is only being restarted after it was shut down for a period of time in '82, after Iraq supported the fighting in Syria's Bekaa Valley, and after His Excellency Qusay pushed it back.

Until later, this pipeline was operating normally, although compared with Iraq's millions of barrels of oil per day, this pipeline could not transport all the oil, Iraq's main channel is still the Persian Gulf, but this pipeline undoubtedly played a great role.

After the last war, Israel completely formed a mortal enmity with Iraq, and under the instigation of more right-wing groups, Israel finally planned this operation to attack Iraq economically!

Especially under the operation of Iraq, Britain temporarily stopped military cooperation with Israel, although Israel can turn to the United States and get everything they want from the United States, however, this incident eventually became a fuse, Israel, need to retaliate!

In particular, although the United States is sparing no effort to support Israel and hopes that the Israeli Air Force will recover as soon as possible, this oil incident has also brought the United States closer to Iraq, and the US Government actually intends to sell the E-3 early warning aircraft to Iraq.

In particular, Israel's air force is still in the process of being rebuilt, and it is not appropriate for them to engage in direct confrontation with the Iraqi air force until it recovers.

If you can't fight openly, then come in secret!

It is a little difficult to carry out activities in Iraq, especially the arrest of General Adam last time, which put them under great psychological pressure, so, after careful planning, they finally determined a plan of action, that is, to sabotage Iraq's oil pipelines in Syria! Serious blow to the ability to transport oil!

Compared with the Iraqi army, the Syrian army is purely a straw bale, in particular, the oil pipeline is not a military target at all, so to speak, there is no one to take care of it at all, besides, the hundreds of kilometers long oil pipeline, even if you want to take care of it, I am afraid you can't see it.

If in the past, Israel would not hesitate to dispatch its air force, use precision-guided weapons, and solve the problem in a few minutes, but now, it is not possible, even if the Israeli air force can fly to Syria to carry out bombing, the consequences are not something they can bear, God knows what tricks that Qusay will play!

So, they have to come secretly, secretly wreak havoc, and then sneak away without leaving a trace.

This kind of sabotage behind enemy lines is also an operation that the Kingfisher special forces are good at.

"Ready for action." Golani said.

The four snipers, occupying the commanding heights around them, were ready to deal with possible dangers and provide them with protection, and the remaining eleven people, in a fan-shaped attack formation, slowly moved forward, although they knew that in a place where such birds did not, there was no one else but them, and they still came strictly according to the requirements of the training.

When I came to the front of the pipe, in the large pipe, I could still hear the sound of the liquid flowing inside.

Oil pipelines are welded with a section of steel pipe, some will be buried in the ground, and some will stand above the ground, depending on the specific situation.

This section of the oil pipeline is on a pedestal above the ground, which makes it easier for them to get their hands on it.

Golani made a skillful gesture, and one of the team members behind him lowered his backpack and pulled out a few things as large as bricks, but some soft.

"Two pieces are enough, don't waste it." Golani said.

The team had no choice but to put back two more pieces, leaving only two pieces, and holding these two pieces, they stuck to the oil pipeline on top of their heads.

Then he took out another box, pulled two tubes out of it, stuffed them into the two brick-like things, and then, twisted the knob on the box, set the time to fifteen hours later, and then they were on board again.
