Others don’t know Lieutenant General Horner’s character, but Lieutenant Colonel Dulles knows it too well, because before he was transferred to the F-117 Nighthawk stealth attack fleet, he served as a personal adjutant and a three-year fighter squadron leader and captain under Horner. He is one of the longest subordinates with Horner. Therefore, Dulles knows Horner’s style of conduct well.

So Dulles knew very well that Horner, who seemed to be popular and unconventional, had an extremely delicate and transparent heart, especially in the treacherous battlefield, Horner was like an extremely sensitive hunting dog, and could smell the weakest weakness of his opponent no matter where he was.

Logically, with such a keen sense of the battlefield, Horner should be a well-known general. However, the fact is just the opposite. While Horner has won numerous military achievements, he has also gained countless criticisms. If he wants to rated a general with mixed reputations among the active US military generals, Horner would definitely be elected with a high vote without any suspense.

The reason for this is very simple, that is, it is because of Horner's suspicious personality. Perhaps in the eyes of others, Horner, who has a hot and carefree personality, does not have such deep scheming, but Dulles, who knows Horner, knows that it is just an appearance of Horner's hidden true self.

He never trusts anyone, especially in combat operations, and will split the plan into several sub-plans with many alternative plans and hand them over to those he thinks are trustworthy to implement. However, no one can understand the overall plan except him. This is why temporary changes in the plan occur frequently in combat operations commanded by Horner.

As an old subordinate, Lieutenant Colonel Dulles is naturally one of the trustworthy people in Lieutenant General Horner's mind. Lieutenant Colonel Dulles always thinks so, so he was fortunate to master some of the plans formulated by Horner and knew that although this military operation started with "fixed-point removal", Horner's ambition was to eliminate the "Falcon" air defense missile system while completing the fixed-point removal, and to severely damage the Iraqi strategic reserve team, clearing obstacles for the upcoming ground offensive battle.

For this reason, Lieutenant Colonel Dulles was a little excited. To know that Horner's plan, even the deputy commander-in-chief and chief of staff of the coalition forces may not have the details he knew. This made Lieutenant Colonel Dulles even have the urge to die for his confidant, so that Lieutenant Colonel Dulles did not take several backup plans from Horner to heart, because Dulles did not think that he was a reliable and loyal subordinate like him, and Horner would still be unrecognizable in his mercy.

However, with the flash of a huge letter of "a", the complacent obsession in Lieutenant Colonel Dulles' heart collapsed instantly. Perhaps in the eyes of the other three F-117 "Nighthawk" stealth attack aircraft pilots who were carrying out the mission together, the so-called "a" is nothing more than one of the many alternative plans. As long as you fly over and execute it step by step according to the plan.

But in Lieutenant Colonel Dulles's eyes, this "a" is no different from a sharp blade that stabbed him in his heart. The reason is that the original plan to use the f-117 "Nighthawk" to attack Semawo was from Dulles. He thought that with Horner's trust, this plan that devoted his efforts to a lot of effort.

It could be maintained, but unexpectedly, the lonely "a" smashed his dream to pieces. Until this time, Dulles discovered that Lieutenant General Horner's so-called trust was only relative, and distrust was the absolute as always. Thinking about this, Lieutenant Colonel Dulles couldn't help but smile bitterly:

"It seems that Horner has long planned to use the Army's m270 rocket launcher to launch the MGM-140 Army tactical missile system as fire cover to disrupt the Iraqi army's air defense deployment, thereby creating a once-in-a-lifetime favorable opportunity for the four F-117 Nighthawk stealth attack aircraft under his command."

Thinking of Lieutenant General Horner's serious expression when he told them "a" on the eve of attacking Semavo, Lieutenant Colonel Dulles felt an indescribable sense of absurdity. It was ridiculous that he still believed that this was just caused by Horner's thinking inertia. How could he think that at that time, people had already made this plan, and only he was stupid and confused.

"Sure!"

Thinking of Horner's joking look at the time and the principle of using high-density saturation to paralyze the radar network of the "Falcon" air defense missile system, Dulles couldn't help but talk and sighed sadly, but the childish eyes that could not hide things like a child made this sigh difficult to understand. I don't know whether he praised Horner's skillful tactics or satirized Horner's deep scheming.

However, in the next moment, Dulles's face flushed due to anger locked the answer to the latter. In fact, Dulles cannot be blamed for being so indignant. The F-117 squadron he commanded, code-named "Ghost", can be called the elite of the entire F-117 fleet. Since the war started, they have been elusive and have no trace, and are at ease between the dense Iraqi radar networks;

In just two weeks, more than 80 aircraft were dispatched and 36 tons of bombs were dropped, but they successfully attacked 68 targets of various types, with nearly 100% hitting accuracy and an unprecedented level of damage. The Iraqi Presidential Palace, the Ministry of Defense Building, the National Air Defense Command Center, the Telecommunications and Communications Building, and the Baghdad Comprehensive Power Plant were all bombarded into ruins by his "ghost" squadron.

Of course, among many battle records, the "Ace" operation some time ago is naturally indispensable. The "Ghost" squadron, which is the stepping stone, was regarded as the core of the entire air offensive battle. They did not disappoint everyone's expectations and knocked out several air defense nodes of the Iraqi army, thus allowing the "Ace" operation to easily win. It is precisely because of this that in the minds of many coalition officers and soldiers, the so-called "Ace" refers to the action itself, but isn't it also an omnivorous F-117 of the "Ghost" squadron?

It is precisely with such a brilliant record and the title of "Ace" that Lieutenant Colonel Dulles formulated a combat plan similar to "Ace" operation, that is, with his "Ghost" squadron as the core, and using a powerful stealth effect to forcibly cut the air defense nodes and strategic support points of the army stationed in Semavoy, thereby opening up a path for the subsequent offensive echelon.

But now, with the word "a" that Lieutenant General Horner lightly, the "Ace" that should have been in charge has become a "scam" that needs others to cover up and pick up people's wisdom. This is no longer a matter of trust or distrust for Lieutenant Colonel Dulles, but a very shameful insult.

If this is done, Lieutenant Colonel Dulles gritted his teeth and endured it. After all, there are still many high-value targets waiting for his "coming". But the problem is that the purpose of "a" is to let him attack the Babylonian Air Base. You must know that this Iraqi Air Base will be before his "Ghost" squadron arrives.

It has long been blown up by the "Tomahawk" cruise missile and the mgm-140 Army tactical missile system. Even if there is a solid underground command post, it will be solved by the subsequent F-15e aircraft group. In any case, it is impossible to use their ace to clean the battlefield.

You should know that they are stealth fighters, and the purpose of creating them is to play a stepping stone. No matter how they change, they should be well-deserved pioneers and will never become wasteful people who can clean up the waste. If this is the case, what else should stealth fighters do?

"This bastard Horner..."

Under the unbearable grief, Lieutenant Colonel Dulles cursed fiercely, but the next moment, the face of defeat appeared with a bright childlike smile, which made his "Ghost" squadron fall into the crowd and it was naturally impossible to fight a ruined base.

Since Horner doesn't treat them as aces, then Dulles will regard himself as a "trump card". When the last flop, their "ghost" squadron will definitely leave anyone who despises speechless. Thinking of this, Lieutenant Colonel Dulles's eyes appearing coldly, and then stretches out his hand, opens the data link input device in the lower right corner, and uses voice input:

"All aircraft should pay attention to the maximum number of ammunition when attacking Babylonian Air Force Base!"

After entering, Lieutenant Colonel Dulles quickly glanced at the handwriting on the screen. After confirming that it was correct, he pressed the send button without hesitation. A very high frequency data link communication radio wave shot towards the depths of the darkness through the hidden data link antenna at the back of the f-117 "Nighthawk" fuselage that was almost integrated with the fuselage...

“Zi~~Zi~~Zi~~”

Just as Lieutenant Colonel Dulles broke the radio and sent data link signals to the other fighter jets silently, the radio directional antenna located in the Babylon Air Force Base of Semavo suddenly received a sudden and short high-frequency signal, causing the signal display to suddenly rise, the waves and the peaks are towering, and the sound of zipping makes people feel goosebumps.

Lu Jiadong was the same, but he did not raise his legs to leave such a harsh device. He just rubbed his arms with goose bumps, and still stared at the peak value on the signal display. Then he entered a series of commands into the computer connected in parallel next to him through the keyboard.

Soon a whole screen of obscure command symbols were displayed on the black screen. Lu Jiadong narrowed his eyes and looked carefully for a while. When he saw two inconspicuous numbers in a set of mathematical symbols similar to equation formulas, his eyes suddenly opened wide, and his black and shiny pupils instantly shrank to the size of a pinhole. Then he leaned on the keyboard's palm and slapped on the operating table beside him with a "bang~~" and shouted loudly:

"Finally found it......"
