Chapter 89: Defeat before victory

Cai Feiguang's eyebrows jumped, and all the soldiers laughed. Wu Huaqiang is still Wu Huaqiang, even if he was drunk last night and will be demobilized today, he is still a real soldier. Cai Feiguang hesitated, this is not a simple task to kill a condemned prisoner, Wu Huaqiang will be demobilized today, simply say that Wu Huaqiang will no longer be a soldier of the special operations platoon after today, he is now asking to participate in the operation, is this a good promise or a refusal?

Seeing Cai Feiguang entangled, Wu Huaqiang shouted again: "Battalion commander, the troops haven't held a ceremony yet, so I'm still a soldier of the Big Knife Regiment." As a member of the special operations platoon, and I am still a party member, squad leader, I cannot be a deserter. Battalion commander, please grant my request, I insist on participating in the operation! ”

The special combat soldiers were all moved, and the squad leader was a real man, a real man. This is the true nature of being a soldier, and he is worthy of this military uniform. As a result, all the soldiers shouted loudly: "Battalion commander, please allow the squad leader to participate in the operation." ”

Cai Feiguang groaned for a moment, and he knew that everyone's morale was very high at this time. As a commander, of course, you can't demoralize the soldiers at this time. So, he raised his hand impressively, and then waved his hand vigorously and shouted: "Wu Huaqiang!" ”

Wu Huaqiang hurriedly straightened his chest. "Here!"

Cai Feiguang smiled slightly, and his voice was a little softer. "Return to the team, permission to participate in the operation."

"Yes!" Wu Huaqiang saluted again, and then shouted at the soldiers, "What else to see, brothers, go, go, prepare for armed assembly!" ”

The soldiers quickly rushed to the armaments office, where all kinds of weapons of the special combat soldiers were stored, and the soldiers of the pre-selection team were naturally responsible for guarding them. Soon, the special operations platoon was fully armed, and Cai Feiguang and Xu Lianqiu walked to the front of the team at the same time. Xu Lianqiu raised his hand to look at the time, and then shouted in a low voice: "Comrades, please pay attention, I will now explain to you the general situation of the East Turkistan terrorist organization in our secret base in Tibetan Province. Since it is impossible to infiltrate the base for a detailed investigation, this operation will be a bit troublesome. The base is built on Mount Makalu, which is the fifth highest peak in the world at an altitude of 8,463 meters. Located at 87 east longitude. 1 degree, 27 north latitude. 9 degrees, located in the middle of the Himala Mountains, twenty-four kilometers southeast of Mount Everest. It is bounded by the northwest ridge and the southeast ridge, the north side is in the territory of China's Tibetan Province, and the south side belongs to the Kingdom of Nepal. Therefore, you should be careful, our operation must be carried out in secret, otherwise if the training base finds out, they are likely to infiltrate the Kingdom of Nepal. If such a thing happens, it may lead to an international incident, and I don't think I need to explain the consequences. ”

The soldiers were silent, this East Turkistan terrorist organization is really powerful, and it has even built its training base on the fifth highest mountain in the world, and it is not afraid of the cold weather there. Cai Feiguang saw that some of the soldiers didn't seem to have reacted yet, he coughed lowly, and then shouted solemnly: "What Deputy Director Xu meant, do you understand?" It is impossible for us to make this operation public. If, in the unlikely event that one of you is caught crossing the Nepalese border while pursuing personnel from the training base, then we will not recognize your identity. And you, from now on, will erase all the files, and the files will not be re-established until you return safely. So rabbit cubs, you have calmed down with Lao Tzu, this mission must be completed if it cannot be completed. Even if you hunt down to the edge of the sky, you have to kill all the people in the training base to Lao Tzu. If you can't get the personnel at the training base, you don't have to come back. Hear no! ”

All the soldiers were shocked, but then there was a frenzy in their eyes. "Yes, I heard you, I promise to complete the mission!" All the soldiers were roaring, Cai Feiguang waved his hand and shouted in a deep voice: "Let's go!" ”

At that moment, Huang Lixing ran forward, and then shouted the order. "Stand upright, turn left, run and go!" Not far away, the helicopter gunship with the cabin door already open, and the special operations soldiers quickly jumped on it. Looking at the helicopter that was moving away quickly, Cai Feiguang sighed gloomily, it was not easy to practice a little result, what does this mean, even the Tibetan Provincial Public Security Department has to intervene? Cai Feiguang has no choice, this is a game in the province, although the commander of the military region is the king of the army, he is not the king of Tibetan Province, Chu Yiyun also needs to compromise, even if the special operations platoon has what he needs, he does not dare to challenge the rules.

Mount Makalu has five main ridges, which are the Northwest Ridge, the Southwest Ridge, the Northeast Ridge, the Southeast Ridge, and the North Ridge. The Wei peak on the north ridge is called Mount Everest, with an altitude of 7,816 meters. The Wei Peak of the northwest ridge is the second peak of Makalu, with an altitude of 7,640 meters. The Wei Peak on the southeast ridge is slightly higher, with an altitude of 8,010 meters. These peaks are covered with a thick layer of snow and ice, and the valleys are dotted with huge glaciers with jagged cliffs and crevasses, and ice avalanches are frequent.

On the plane, Huang Lixing briefed the special combat soldiers on the general situation of Mount Makalu, and the secret training base of the East Turkistan terrorist organization in Tibet Province is hidden somewhere on the southeast ridge. It seems that he had already received the information that the special operations platoon was going to take action yesterday, but Huang Lixing was really able to hold back, and he was able to stay calm on the night of seeing off Wu Huaqiang, which made several squad leaders sincerely admire him. "That's probably the case, it took us almost ten hours to get to Makalu Mountain. It should be noted that we must choose to skydive at night, and if we move during the day, we are likely to be seen by the spies at the training base. ”

"Platoon commander, so when we arrived at Mount Makalu, it was only afternoon. So we won't be able to move until the evening, and what are we going to do for the remaining hours? Liu Yansong frowned, if the battalion commander didn't think about this issue, the special combat soldiers would be in trouble. Because I didn't know what Lu Dao was doing today, everyone still got up at five o'clock in the morning, and now the sky is still gray, and the time is only about six o'clock.

Everyone looked at Huang Lixing, and he smiled slightly: "Don't worry about this, we can probably rush to Mozhugongka County at noon, where there is a garrison of a company of our Dadao Regiment." We can rest for five hours at the barracks in Mozhugongka County before we set off. ”

Zhuang Gangyi nodded and said: "In this way, the time problem is solved, but after we parachute, should we start the operation immediately, or will we surround the training base first and wait for the sky to brighten?" ”

Huang Lixing muttered: "According to the truth, it is naturally safe to come to the battle at dawn. However, there must be masters in the training base, and we can't be careless about that. That's why I recommend that you fence off the training base after the skydive, and then everyone can see the opportunity to act. ”

Wu Huaqiang was a little dissatisfied when he heard this, "If you can't even find the location of the base, how can you go to surround it!" I said platoon commander, the Weifeng on the southeast ridge is more than 100,000 meters, such a high mountain, how can we find it? ”

Liu Yansong said with a smile: "Squad leader, you don't have to worry, in fact, this is really easy to find." Although the mountain is very high, they can't make too much of the training base. For the first time, members of terrorist organizations may not be able to afford it themselves. And everyone knows that the training base should be mostly rookies. ”

As soon as Liu Yansong said this, everyone couldn't help but laugh and talk about it. Speaking of rookies, everyone was a rookie two years ago. Of course, compared to the vicious terrorist members, the special operations soldiers are actually still at the level of rookies. It is only because of the game of the high-level in Tibetan Province that the special combat soldiers do not have any autonomy. That's why Cai Feiguang's heart sighed, and Xu Lianqiu was helpless.

Whether it is the other units in Tibetan Province or the Tibetan Provincial Police Force, these forces cannot be easily used. Because considering the possibility of international events, then the provincial government has to keep a hand for themselves. Therefore, this is indeed a kind of sadness, and under the political game, the special combat soldiers who have only been formed for two years are undoubtedly the best cannon fodder team.

As soon as everyone laughed, the atmosphere blended a lot. Shang Pengzu said: "Although the location is easy to find, after all, the southeast ridge is not small, and there are more than 20 of us, and it still takes a lot of time to find the right location." So I suggest that the four squads act separately, each in charge of one direction, so that the search can be speeded up and the search can be carried out with each other. If the enemy finds out, it won't be served in a pot. ”

Deng Kaichang was not happy when he heard this, he was a little dissatisfied and said: "I said Zu'er, your mentality is not good, everyone has not acted yet, you just think about what to do if you fail, such a mentality on the battlefield will affect the morale of your brothers!" ”

Huang Lixing waved his hand and said: "Squad Leader Shang's suggestion is still feasible, fighting is like this, we can't expect all enemies to be paper tigers before we think about victory." The fact that the East Turkistan terrorist organization has been able to run rampant for so many years and continue to exist must have something special about it. In particular, we don't know anything about the situation at the training base, who can guarantee the presence of regular troops in it! ”

Everyone was stunned, and Deng Kaichang did not continue to speak. When they think of the idea of East Turkistan as a terrorist organization, everyone thinks that Huang Lixing's words are very likely to be true. In December 1999, representatives of more than 40 separatist groups from 18 countries met in Istanbul, Turkey, to establish a policy of violent "nation-building" and reach a consensus on the "armed seizure of power". The separatist organization plans to build a regular army with more than 10,000 people within 10 years to carry out terrorist, guerrilla, and even regular warfare in Xinjiang provinces and regions. The Tibetan province borders the province of Xinjiang, and the Makalu Mountains are close to the Kingdom of Nepal, and the training base in East Turkistan hides the regular army, which seems to make sense.
