Zhang Kui stood on the top of the mountain and looked into the distance, at this moment it was the thick fog dissipated, when the sun was scorching, the clouds and mist under the top of the mountain, the skyline composed of a snowy peak was reflected in the background of the blue sky, the mysterious Alamut Castle was bathed in the sun and revealed its true face, as if floating in the sky, it was incomparably beautiful, and it made people feel intoxicated.

Zhang Kui tightened the strap of his helmet, moved his hands and feet, ran forward a few steps with his delta wing, and jumped off the cliff. He felt his body sink down into the valley, glide for a while, and then suddenly pulled up by the delta wings and floated in the air. The delta wing is in the air through the updraft of the ridge or the updraft caused by the heat of the ground, and now is the warmest time for the weather, and the air flow in the valley rises, holding Zhang Kui up steadily, gradually rising.

The delta wing hovers up in the canyon, Zhang Peng carefully adjusts the joystick to adjust the speed, and when making a windward turn in front of the mountain power airflow, people will feel that the speed is very small, and the space left for themselves is insufficient, and they often unconsciously speed up, but when the ground speed increases when turning downwind, people often hit the mountain before they complete the turn; And after rushing out of the canyon, it seems to be flying on the top of the mountain. When flying downwind, the rapid backward movement of the landscape can give the illusion that you are flying too fast, and if you push the lever to reduce your speed, it will cause a stall.

Zhang Kui skillfully manipulated the delta wing to gradually rise, flying more and more steadily, breaking through the two ghost gates in front of him, he turned his face to see that more than ten delta wings followed him behind him had also followed, he made a gesture to adjust the direction of the sun and flew in the direction of Alamut Fort, and on the platform he had just taken off, there were delta wings constantly taking off, forming a formation in the air. Follow their tracks from afar.

The delta wing continues to rise and rise in flight, far exceeding the surrounding peaks. Zhang Kui only felt that his breathing was becoming more and more difficult. His consciousness was a little blurry, and his ears were only filled with the sound of the whistling wind. Although he was wearing warm clothes, he seemed to be naked in an ice cellar. He knew that he was flying too high, in the danger of high oxygen deficiency as the emperor said, and he shook his head vigorously, trying to stay awake and maintain the correct course.

If you run through the mountains, you will feel that the road is very long, but the speed of the delta wing is very fast, although you have to change the direction of the constant patrol. But the speed is still amazing. Zhang Kui felt that after flying for about two moments, he could clearly see the whole of Alamut Castle, and he began to carefully lower his altitude, looking for the platform on the top of the hill, which would be their landing point......

After preliminary reconnaissance, the situation of Fort Alamut was laid out in front of everyone, located on a high cliff in the heart of the mountain range, at a high altitude and surrounded by canyons. The surrounding gentle terrain and valleys are dotted with villages and religious dwellings. Guarding the castle like stars, it is like a country in the mountains.

The castle itself was chosen to be built in an impenetrable and inaccessible location, and the danger was daunting. In order to resist the enemy's attack, the Murayi reinforced the area around the castle. In the relatively gentle terrain, the city wall was built, and the city wall around the mountain was built, and more than 10,000 soldiers were stationed bravely. To prevent a prolonged siege by enemy troops. They also blocked the stream and opened up fields halfway up the mountain. Growing fruit trees and food guarantees self-sufficiency.

So the castle of Alamut cannot be attacked. The siege cannot be encircled, and it is beyond the reach of small troops and armies lacking heavy weapons. In the early days of their reign, they had been besieged by armies of many countries, and they were able to survive the fact that apart from the ferocity of the Assassins, it was an easy and difficult terrain to defend, but to get rid of Umid it was necessary to climb to the top of the mountain, and only a narrow and steep path led to the top.

On the top of the hill there is an open field, where the residence of the Sheikh of the Murayi Kingdom was built. Access to the top of the mountain had to be climbed through a tunnel completely carved out of the rock, thus separating the Sheikh's residence from the bottom of the mountain, forming a relatively independent core area, and the Great Song Task Force only had more than 100 people in total, and it was a joke to use the assault, and it was not easy to use their best infiltration.

In order to be able to integrate into the local area, facilitate reconnaissance and concealment, the team members have undergone pre-war assault training and learned the local language and customs, but we all know that even if you are from a county or city, as long as you speak with one mouth, everyone can still judge that you are from the village and town of this county and city. There was only one way to infiltrate the castle, and it had to be cross-examined, and if it showed the slightest flaw, it would be seen by the defenders, and even if it was difficult to retreat, it was difficult to retreat, so the risk far outweighed the chance, and it was abandoned.

Just when everyone had nothing to do and joked together, Li Tian's unintentional words made everyone think of the method of using delta wings to infiltrate from the air. The advantage is that the strike detachment can enter and exit by air, without considering the problem of safe withdrawal, and can attack them in an unexpected way, directly enter their core area, take them by surprise, and quickly evacuate the dangerous place after completing the task.

In addition, as the headquarters of the Sheikh, there will not be too many guards around him, but the main defense forces will be placed in the passes at the foot of the mountain and on the mountainside. Therefore, it is not difficult to find the enemy at the bottom of the mountain by cutting off its access to the top of the mountain, or controlling the danger with a battle group, which is not difficult to find in the Fort of Alamut, which can be used to the advantage of the most unfavorable conditions for oneself.

Piloting the delta wing became a training program for the Special Operations Team and the Intelligence Service Operations Team after the Emperor made a stunning jump from the Fanjing Tower in Bianjing, and most of the task force had mastered this skill, and there was no obstacle in the selection of personnel. In addition, killing Umid in this way would be extremely shocking in the Murayi, letting them know that no matter where they hid, even on the safest peak.

There are many benefits, but there are also many difficulties. First of all, there is the problem of equipment, no one in the task force thought that there would be a place to use this thing, but this can be overcome, the materials for making the delta wing are not difficult to find, as long as they are all put away, everyone is still confident that they can make it. The second is the meteorological problem, it is winter, the warm air activity is weakened, and the mountains are foggy, these conditions are not conducive to the flight of the delta wing.

In addition, there is the choice of offensive time, and the night is always the friend of the special combat personnel, but in the undulating mountains, it is difficult to discern the direction in the dark night, looking for landing, especially when taking off and landing, they will encounter unimaginable difficulties, and it is easy to crash or get lost. The fatal disadvantage of daytime operations is that it is difficult to conceal, and if they are discovered by the enemy when they are preparing to land, these people who are floating in the air and have no ability to resist become the best targets.

However, after deliberation, everyone decided that using the delta wing to launch a surprise attack was still the best option, and it was easy to find the target and find a landing site during the day, and the surprise attack during the day itself was a good cover. The lesser of two evils, and the chance of being spotted by the enemy can also be reduced by choosing the right time to be airborne. The most critical meteorological conditions are the most critical ones, and they have found in previous training that even in the winter mountains, there are sometimes times when delta wing flight is suitable for flight.

Under these circumstances, the group decided to take the risk of using aerial infiltration to carry out the assassination operation. Xue Hai divided the personnel into three groups: one group was led by the sand pile to find a suitable take-off point and a landing site after evacuation; A group of Qingyang was responsible for carefully reconnoitring the terrain around Fort Alamut, finding out the pattern of the defenders' activities and deployment, and finding out the location of Umid; He personally led the other group to collect materials to make delta wings and monitor the weather patterns.

In the midst of intense combat preparations, the operational plan was also being formulated and continuously adjusted according to the reconnaissance situation, and it was finally decided that the entire contingent would be divided into two operational units - the assassination unit and the response unit.

The assassination detachment was divided into three groups: assault, cover, and block, consisting of sixty members, who would fly over the mountains and valleys on the delta wings and land in the open space on the top of Fort Alamut. After landing, the covering group quickly cleared the enemy from the airborne landing point, established a defensive circle, created conditions for the other two groups to be airborne on a large scale, and then guarded the supplies and supported the other two groups as a reserve according to the battle situation; The assault group, after landing on the ground, attacked the Umid garrison and eliminated it; The task of the strain group is to block the enemy's reinforcements. After the mission is completed, they will still use the delta wing to evacuate from the top of the mountain.

The receiving detachment was also divided into three groups, and three receiving points were set up around the predetermined location, a defensive ring was established, and the task of ambulating the assassination detachment and blocking the enemy was taught. And after the retreat is interrupted, the pursuing enemy will be diverted, cover the safe evacuation of the whole team, and then return to the predetermined rendezvous point and evacuate the Murayi country together......

As Zhang Kui approached the summit of Fort Alamut, he gradually lowered his altitude and dived down against the sun, so that he could use the sunlight to reduce the possibility of being discovered by the enemy. As the altitude decreased, he noticed that dozens of people had gathered on the platform at the top of the mountain, and the sound of chanting could be heard. Zhang Kui suddenly remembered that this was the time for the Muslims to pray, and they just ignored this, but this moment was no longer enough to think about, and he slammed the lever and rushed down to the platform.

I don't know if it's luck or the fate of the enemy's bad luck, the people who are saluting sincerely on the platform happen to turn their backs in the direction of the covering group led by Zhang Kui, and they didn't find these uninvited guests falling from the sky, and they probably didn't expect someone to attack from the sky. When they heard the thump of something falling from the sky and looked back, Zhang Kui, who landed first, had already broken free from the safety rope and drew his pistol...... (To be continued......)
