Battlefield Contract Worker

These facilities are well hidden. This is why when Lin Rui proposed to use bombers to solve these targets, Ferid said it was difficult to do so.

But now, after Lin Rui's planning, it seems that there is a dawn to solve this problem, which is to use a small group of special forces to go out near these targets, provide target instructions for the bombers, guide the bombers to carry out precise bombing on these targets, and completely destroy them.

This method of warfare was very common in previous military operations without satellite equipment.

But even in this information age, it is not an outdated method of warfare.

Therefore, after listening to Lin Rui's thoughts, Ferid immediately keenly sensed the superiority of this method of warfare, and then made a decisive decision and ordered the planning of the airborne operation, so that Lin Rui would personally carry out this task.

Although the militants hid their warehouses, maintenance workshops, garages, etc. very well, it is not too difficult to find them on the ground.

After all, roads are indispensable to lead to these places. As long as you are careful and search along the road, you will find these places in no time. Through high-powered binoculars, you can make them nowhere to hide.

Khan was accompanied by a Mali non-commissioned officer. This Mali non-commissioned officer was a professional non-commissioned officer who was good at reconnaissance operations. He was also good at using various observation tools. Drawing maps was a basic skill.

With the presence of this professional sergeant, the reconnaissance team led by Khan completed the scheduled reconnaissance mission in just half a day and returned to the starting point quietly.

"Boy, you can do it! Hehe! As expected of graduating from the non-commissioned officer school, you boy is really good! Not bad, not bad! You did a good job!" Kuaima looked at the distribution map of the important targets of the Tuareg armed forces that Khan brought back, and happily patted Khan on the shoulder and praised him.

Khan pulled Kuaima's handcuff aside with a look of disgust, and said despondently, "That's right! Don't you look at who I am? I'm an elite of O2! Does the elite know? It's not me who brags, but now I've got the approval of the boss!

To do this kind of thing, for me, it is a piece of cake! "

"You're bragging! Did you draw this picture? You just took people there. Aren't these things all done by the black sergeant?

Look how beautiful you are, the boss is not here, if the boss is here, your kid's **** will suffer again! Eric wiped his sniper rifle aside, and said to Khan with a look of contempt.

"Hey? I said German, will you die if you don't talk? Hold your broken gun, go and stay aside!

When you do it, if you can't hit it right, it may not be who's **** will bloom by then! roll roll roll! go away! Khan immediately became annoyed and started bickering with Eric.

Eric grinned badly, hugged his sniper rifle and said, "Why, don't you believe in my strength? I'm not bragging! As long as I enter within three miles, as long as I designate a target, I can shoot bullets into the nostrils of militants! Do you believe it or not?"

"Hush..." There was booing all around, and everyone immediately expressed disbelief. Eric gave them a disdainful look, and continued to wipe his gun.

Kuai Ma recruited the key personnel in the team together and began to assign combat tasks to them.

Kuai Ma has now been promoted to the leader of the operation team, and has become a serious commander. He is responsible for leading one operation team, and is assigned to cover another operation team, and after he succeeds, he is responsible for escorting them back to the jungle.

Once being pursued by the Tuareg armed forces, they must be in charge of the rear to prevent the Tuareg armed forces from pursuing them.

The communication group is responsible for providing radio guidance to the bombers, and is also responsible for communicating with the bombers to keep the ground and air communications open.

And he himself is responsible for leading the rest of the people to go out to the vicinity of the target location, cover the mortar team to attack the Tuareg armed target, and withdraw from the battle after the cover mortar team completes the task.

After some arrangements, Kuai Ma ordered the communication soldiers to turn on the radio, contact Lin Rui, and told Lin Rui that they were ready and could start action at any time.

After Lin Rui received the notice from Kuai Ma, he immediately ordered the communication team to contact the rear headquarters and sent a signal to start operations.

After the actuary Jiang'an and Ferid received the signal, they immediately called the airport and issued a departure order to the bomber squad that had arrived at the airport and was waiting to be dispatched. The bomber squadron, which had already been ready for departure, rushed out of the tent amidst the sound of the alarm bell, and rushed towards their plane one by one.

The ground crew also rushed to the tarmac quickly, started to power up the plane, and assisted the pilot to start the engine. There was a bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang bang bang, the propellers started spinning rapidly, and the engines gradually stabilized.

Bombers loaded with bombs and incendiary bombs began to slide into the runway, and then the lead plane began to speed up and taxi. After taxiing for a certain distance, it left the ground awkwardly.

The rest of the bombers followed closely behind and began to taxi on the runway, and then one after another, they rose into the air, joined the lead plane in the air, and after the formation was completed, they flew towards the east.

Most of these bombers were transformed from transport planes. They were all loaded with bombs for this mission. Because the range was very short, there was no need to add too much fuel, so they all took off with a full load of bombs, and all six bombers flew smoothly.

Fly in the direction of the Niger Valley. According to the previously formulated action plan, in order not to expose their target, after they took off, they first turned to the north, detoured from the north side of the Niger Valley, and kept flying over the north of the river.

After arriving in the predetermined airspace, it began to receive radio signals sent from the ground, and flew over the bombing site using the radio signals sent from the ground as a guide.

The bomber took off at around noon, and the cruising speed was normal, above 300 kilometers. The flying speed was relatively fast. Even if it detoured over the northern sky, it only took more than an hour to reach the target sky.

So after learning that the bomber had taken off, Kuai Ma took his men into action. Under the guidance of Khan, they quickly sneaked into the jungle on the north side of the Tuareg Armed Field Road passing through Lajon, and lurked about one kilometer away from the target.

On the way to the target, something went wrong. In the jungle, they encountered two Tuareg militants who were collecting wild vegetables in the jungle.

Fortunately, Khan and a few scouts who were walking in front discovered in advance, and quietly stabbed the two militants to death in the jungle with their mouths covered.

But because of this, Kuaima also became nervous, because after the two Tuareg militants were killed, they did not return to the station for a long time, which might arouse the suspicion of the Tuareg armed forces, and sent people to the jungle to search for the two militants. In that case, their existence might be discovered.

So he speeded up and led his troops to the predetermined location. After arriving at the predetermined location, the communications soldier immediately turned on the radio and began to transmit a radio signal every five minutes.

After Khan observed the target through the telescope, he immediately found a suitable position and set up the two 120mm mortars they were carrying. He and another mortarman each operated a mortar, carefully aimed with a sight, and took out a pile of yellow phosphorus smoke mortar shells and several incendiary bombs.

The core of the airborne operation formulated by Lin Rui this time is to use this kind of mortar to fire smoke bombs and incendiary bombs at the position of the Tuareg armed target when the bomber is in the air, and use the smoke and incendiary bombs.

In military operations, there are many examples of such battles, especially after the invention of laser-guided bombs or laser-guided missiles, they are very common.

Members of the ground special forces sneak into the target area in advance, find the bombing target, and then call for air support, use helicopters or attack aircraft or even bombers to launch laser-guided bombs or missiles, and ground personnel operate laser guidance devices, irradiate the target with laser light, and finally guide the bomb or missile to accurately hit the target.

Doing so can make the bombing very precise and reduce collateral damage. It is a combat method commonly used by special operations in the past, and it can often achieve quite good results.

However, it is impossible for the Mali army to have laser-guided bombs or missiles. The bombers are basically modified transport planes, loaded with bombs, and used air-drop bombing to destroy the target. They do not care about the civilians around the target area, let alone any collateral damage.

But it is basically an impossible task for the bomber to find the target hiding in the jungle in the sky, so Lin Rui came up with this method, borrowing from the method of infantry guidance, first dispatching ground troops to reach the target area, and then when the bomber is in the air, fire smoke bombs or incendiary bombs at the target with mortars.

The pilot only needs to observe the smoke and fire emerging from the ground, and drop the bomb at the place where the smoke is on fire. If one transport plane can't work, then use a few more, and it doesn't matter if some bombs are wasted.

What's more, because of the topography of the Niger Valley, the groundwater level in the Niger Valley is very high, and it is impossible for the Tuareg armed forces to dig deep holes to hide supplies underground.

In addition, the road traffic conditions in the Niger Valley are very poor, and the population is extremely sparse. There are no other building materials to build various sheds or warehouses, so they can only use local materials to build buildings with wood and a small amount of soil.

As a result, most of the buildings and bunkers armed by the Tuareg are made of wood and made of civil structures. These things are flammable and not strong enough, and the effect of using ordinary bombs is not good.

However, the effect of using gasoline incendiary bombs, white phosphorus incendiary bombs, or thermite incendiary bombs is much better than ordinary bombs. That's why Lin Rui proposed to let the bomber squadron reserve more incendiary bombs in advance, and use ordinary bombs with incendiary bombs to destroy these Tuareg armed targets.

But the actual effect of his method is still unclear to everyone. After all, no one has tried this method before. Whether it can be successful depends on the first action today.

Moreover, this kind of action is very complicated to execute, and it is necessary for the ground and the air to maintain smooth communication, and at the same time, the time node must be grasped in a timely manner. This puts higher demands on the level of command and organization. Even if the scale of the operation is not very large, no one has tried such an operation before.

Therefore, whether it is Ferid or the members of the various parties involved in this operation, they are still skeptical or wait-and-see attitude towards this operation so far.

If the first bombing operation fails today, it will undoubtedly cast a shadow over this airborne operation, and may even cause Ferid to change his mind and cancel the next action plan.

So when the bomber took off, everyone's hearts were suspended, just waiting for the bomber to fly over Lajon. The transport plane squadron took off a total of six planes this time, and flew over the Niger River along the northern foot of the hillside without **** at all.

When arriving at the scheduled turning point, the navigator on the lead plane suddenly said: "Great! I have received the radio signal! They are transmitting the scheduled signal!"

After hearing this, Major Mali, the captain and commander of the bombing, also showed a smile on his face: "Very good! These mercenaries are more reliable than we thought! Start turning! Keep an eye on the signal! Don't let us deviate from the target!"

"Okay Major! As long as they don't interrupt the signal, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com I don't think I will let us go off course!" The navigator said confidently. He put on the earphones and continued to monitor the signal.

Under the guidance of the radio signal, the bomber team began to turn and fly over Kumen Ridge, and descended to the target town. At this time, the major who was piloting above them suddenly yelled on the radio: "Found Tuareg armed fighters! Everyone is ready to fight! The position at eleven o'clock to the lower left of the target! Keep the altitude! Major Wright, be careful of your left front position. There are three Tuareg armed fighters flying towards you!"

When Major Mali heard Major Henry's call on the radio, he immediately became nervous and cursed: "Damn it! Everyone is there. There is a Tuareg armed fighter plane in front of the left, and the machine gunners are ready!"

At this time, the bomber also climbed into the tail machine gun turret on a part-time basis, and began to operate the machine gun to turn in the direction of the enemy plane, ready to resist. Even the navigators also began to climb to the middle of the machine body, operated the machine gun on the back, and turned to the direction of the enemy plane.

Everyone knows that the current situation is extremely critical. (end of this chapter)
