The confrontation with the militants has reached a deadlock.
The paratrooper assault unit that originally pushed all the way into the house could only stop its advance.
Soon, someone brought a crowbar and pried open the board from one side.
Using a snooping scope, the extrajudicial paratroopers conducted an analysis of the tunnel entrance.
It turned out that there was a staircase at the entrance, sloping downwards, about three meters deep inside. The position where the ladder touched the ground seemed to be very flat, but the space was relatively small. Only two people could enter at the same time. If there were more, they would be crowded together.
This means that if you want to attack, you have to stand firm. It is difficult to have a better tactical plan in this kind of place. The only feasible way is to walk down with a bulletproof shield and push all the way.
It's just that the bulletproof shield can only protect against rifle bullets, and there is an arsenal below. If the opponent throws a grenade, wouldn't it be a disaster?
Looking at the reconnaissance scene, Lieutenant Frank began to scratch his head.
Just a tricky thing.
The most rational plan is to hold on and starve the people below until they surrender.
But this idea is just a hypothesis.
After all, no one can guarantee that in the end they will jump over the wall and blow up the ammunition depot to die together.
Looking at Li Zheng aside, Frank remembered his promise and decided to take a risk.
"Jill!"
He called for the leader of the assault team.
"Is there any good way?"
Gil shook his head: "This situation is not good. If you want to attack by force, you will take great risks, and our people may be injured or killed."
Frank asked: "Then what do you think we should do?"
Gil said: "Wait! Hold on tight. This is the best way. People have to eat. Even if there is food in it, I'm afraid it won't last a month, right?"
Frank thought this plan was funny, but he had to admit that it was very realistic.
It's really not possible to rely on commandos to attack by force.
Such a narrow entrance cannot be opened by one man.
As long as two people are deployed opposite the entrance with two AK47s and a few grenades, the Lord of Hell will not be able to get in.
"you say……"
He walked a few steps, then turned back and said, "Have you ever caught a groundhog?"
Jill was a little confused: "Huh?"
He didn't know why Frank suddenly mentioned prairie dogs.
Frank said: "The best way to deal with prairie dogs that get into the fields is to dig. Dig out their burrows so they have nowhere to hide."
Gill said: "But prairie dogs can't shoot, and prairie dogs don't have a warehouse of ammunition."
The implication is that digging is okay, but halfway through digging, or if you really dig into their tunnel, won't they still blow themselves up if you push them into a hurry?
Frank was hit hard again by Jill's words.
If the safety of the child is not taken into consideration, more and more flexible methods can be adopted. If they want to self-destruct, they can do so at will.
It's just that rescuing that child now is like dancing in shackles, with too many restrictions.
When it arrived, Frank said: "Jill, I decided to try a strong attack."
Jill was taken aback: "Are you crazy?! Attack?!"
Frank nodded: "I will lead the team."
Gil shook his head: "You are the leader, and I am the leader of the assault team. I should go."
Frank said: "I have nothing to do with this matter. I can't let my brothers take risks with me."
After saying that, he shouted to his men: "Go to the car and get me a bulletproof shield!"
Soon, the shield was delivered.
Everyone knew what he was going to do, and even Li Zheng felt that Frank seemed less annoying.
Guys who keep their word are good ones.
Lieutenant Frank took the shield and tried it out.
The shield is not big, but it can cover the vital parts of the upper body, but not the legs.
But in this narrow place, only this small shield can be used.
Then he helplessly spread his hands and said: "Boss, you are crazy!"
Frank glanced at Li Zheng and the others and said to Jill, "I promised the Chinese people. If I go back on my word, what do you think they will think of us?"
Jill said: "What do they think? Does it matter to us what they think?"
Frank said: "It does matter, it concerns my honor."
Gil knew he couldn't persuade him, so he could only sigh and said: "Okay, boss, take care of yourself."
Frank gave up the long gun and chose a pistol. He had a shield in one hand and a pistol in the other. The pistol was placed on the edge of the shield. As long as he saw someone in front of him, the pistol could kill the enemy at such a short distance.
Just when Frank was about to take people down the tunnel, Tong Zhi stopped him.
"Lieutenant, wait!"
Frank turned his head and looked at Tong Zhi: "Is something wrong?"
Tong Zhi said: "I think there should be a better way."
Frank said: "Of course there is, for example... we have a nerve agent like Da Maozi. Put a little bit in it, maybe it will work. The question is, do you have it?"
Tong Zhi smiled and said: "Lieutenant, let me ask you something. What do you think most of the arms down there are?"
"Weapons!" Frank replied casually: "Explosives, ammunition, maybe shoulder-fired anti-aircraft missiles. Who knows what else? Maybe land mines and unexploded ordnance for IEDs."
Tong Zhi nodded and said: "It makes sense, but I would like to ask again, if you are a militant and you are hiding in a narrow tunnel, what is the best weapon to use to deal with people attacking from the entrance?"
"Grenade, rifle, machine gun." Franken became impatient: "I don't have time to guess riddles with you, I'm going to take action."
Tong Zhi said: "If you go down from here, you will definitely die, but there is a 90% chance that you will be injured. Once you are injured, your teammates will stop attacking to save you, and everyone will crowd at the entrance of the cave.
, If I were a militant, I would throw a grenade..."
He made an explosive motion with his hands and imitated the sound of a grenade exploding in his mouth.
"Bang! Everything is over."
Frank's face turned blue.
"Are you asking me to break my promise?"
Tong Zhi said: "No, I thought about it and thought there should be a better way."
Frank's eyes lit up slightly: "Do you have any idea?"
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Tong Zhi said: "Yes, at least it is better than yours."
Frank said: "Then tell me..."
…
Han Jiangyuan received Shen Jun's call next to the armored infantry fighting vehicle. The two communicated on the radio, and then Han Jiangyuan contacted the duty room of the peacekeeping battalion.
Forty minutes later, all engineers from the PLA peacekeeping battalion arrived at Sambu Village.
Machinery after machine drove into the village, and Colonel Alfonso and the Gallic Chicken officers and soldiers looked at it in confusion.
"Frank, are they going to dig a tunnel?"
Lieutenant Frank said, "No, this is a backup."
Colonel Alfonso was very happy. Anyway, his people did not need to take risks. It was best for the Chinese to do it themselves.
In fact, collecting and destroying weapons is also one of the responsibilities of the peacekeeping force. Each of these Chinese people are better than anyone else and know how to use their authority reasonably.
"Frank, ask your people to withdraw and return to the assembly point at the entrance of the village." Alfonso suddenly made a request to Frank.
Frank wanted to ask why, but he immediately understood that his superior had good intentions.
In fact, this is for the sake of the Chinese peacekeeping camp. If too many outsiders stay here, it will create the illusion of joining forces and have a bad impact on the Chinese people.
"Jill, take all your people out, I'll just stay here!"
Jill was a little worried. Before leaving, she came to Frank and asked, "Are you sure these Chinese methods can work? As long as the operation is wrong, everything will be over."
Frank said: "I think we can, but we really can't right now."
After saying that, he patted Jill on the shoulder: "Don't worry, I think they can do it."
Two excavators have already entered the site, and several engineers used instruments to detect the ground, and then planted small red flags on the ground.
Over there, there is a team of engineers who have been busy, connecting pipes from a water source about two hundred meters away from the yard, installing a high-power water pump, connecting it to the water spray truck, and then testing the machine. Pumping water.
Everything is going on in an orderly manner.
Alfonso stood next to Frank, watching all this, and couldn't help but admire: "I have always heard that the Chinese are geniuses in infrastructure engineering. They made many buildings and roads in Africa. I thought it was a bit exaggerated before, but today it is so look……"
He raised his hand and looked at his watch.
"No exaggeration at all."
After the engineers surveyed the ground, they marked a long tunnel direction.
Shen Jun asked Tong Zhi: "Are you sure the water attack is effective?"
Tong Zhi said: "I'm not 100% sure, but if you think about it, the soil here is mostly sandy. If a tunnel is to be built underneath, it must be supported. If water pours in, the structure will be damaged quickly, and there will be consequences. The place collapses. Once it collapses, their sight will also be blocked. We can excavate from other places at the same time and enter in different groups - "
He pointed to the distance, where there were three groups of excavators at the tunnel location marked by the engineers.
"Three points will be excavated at the same time, and the entrance will be feinted. I don't believe that they have such a long tunnel full of guards? There are always places where you can't take care of your head. And water has an advantage. For example, if you go to the entrance Fill the place with water. Even if the grenade explodes when thrown over it, the power will be much reduced. Moreover, if you were lying on the ground to take aim concealed, you have to stand up when the water comes. Some places are not even suitable for you to hide. You need to change it. Their formation is messed up, and if they attack from multiple points at the same time, their chances of winning will immediately increase."
Shen Jun still felt very complicated after hearing this.
This approach sounds very cumbersome, but Tong Zhi is a well-known tactical expert, and he seems to have no qualifications to question what he designed.
Tong Zhi summoned all four attack teams and squatted in a circle to discuss tactics.
What this tactic requires is that a tactical team use smoke bombs to confuse the enemy at the entrance, and then pour water. When the opponent begins to be confused, the remaining three engineering teams dig through the tunnel as quickly as possible, attack at multiple points, and conduct searches. rescue.
In addition, there is a group of technicians responsible for inserting monitoring equipment into the ground, linking it with reconnaissance vehicles, monitoring underground movements, and finding the best opportunity for the attack team to enter.
Everything was quickly arranged. Wang Hedong, the captain of the engineering unit, came over and told Tong Zhi that all the work was ready.
Tong Zhi stood up and waved to the team members behind him: "Brothers, it's up to us now. Don't let our friends in Gaul underestimate our PLA."
"Don't worry, Platoon Commander!"
"no problem!"
Everyone is full of confidence.
As the first commando at the entrance, Li Zheng was in a very nervous mood. The leader of this group was his squad leader Hou Jun. As a commando at this time, Li Zheng was ranked behind Hou Jun.
Holding a bulletproof shield in his hand, Hou Jun turned around and asked Li Zheng: "Boy, are you nervous?"
Li Zheng forced himself to smile: "It's okay."
Hou Jun's expression became serious: "Remember, even if I am shot and fall, ignore me and do what you should do. It is narrow down there. Once you stop, all the comrades behind you will be affected and they will all be squeezed in." Waiting for death in the tunnel, once you get down there, you can only move forward without stopping for a moment! You can’t be soft-hearted, you can’t be soft-hearted! Just do it and that’s it!”
Li Zheng heard Hou Jun's teeth clenching and his determination was as hard as steel, so he nodded sharply: "Squad leader, don't worry! I promise not to harm my comrades!"
