Li Zheng looked down from the helicopter and witnessed everything.
I have to say that IMSF's actions are still very orderly, and it looks like they are well-trained at first glance.
It can be seen from the weapons on these people that they are careless.
First of all, most people's weapons are MP5 submachine guns, which are equipped with silencers. There is also a crossbowman on each boat, who uses military crossbows.
The MP5 submachine gun is well known to be a weapon for anti-terrorism. It has excellent performance and is famous for its excellent accuracy and shooting stability. This gun adopts the principle of delayed recoil of the locked spiral bolt, which effectively reduces the recoil and ensures continuous shooting.
stability.
And it uses 9MM caliber bullets, which have excellent stopping power and can exert great advantages in close combat CQB and anti-terrorism operations.
Installing a silencer can allow the commandos to remain invisible and avoid the embarrassing situation of being exposed immediately after firing.
Not to mention crossbows, which are often seen in the hands of the five domestic counter-terrorism forces. In recent years, even Lu Te has been equipped with some, which are also useful tools for sentry detection in the jungle.
Besides, the direction of approach of the two small boats is also a matter of knowledge.
They approached from the left front side of the natural gas ship. That direction was not only the direction of the White Elephant warship, but also one of the blind spots for observation by the sentries sent by the pirates on the ship.
Basically, from the start, there are no problems with the entire action arrangement.
The most important thing is that White Elephant also took off a carrier-based helicopter, circled at low altitude, turned on the loudspeaker and made a broadcast to the pirates, which was the kind of cliche saying "put down your weapons and surrender immediately".
Li Zheng's palms were sweating.
It has to be said that it was broad daylight, and the white elephant dared to do this, which can be said to be the boldness of a highly skilled person.
The two rubber boats quickly approached the natural gas ship and quietly approached the ship from the port side. The moment they approached, the IMSF commandos on the boat took out the hook ladder that had been prepared, quickly set it up and hooked it directly to the ship.
's port side.
Helicopter pilot Lao He is also a sensible person. He knows that although the team on board has nothing to do for the time being, observation operations are also one of their tasks.
So Haizhi 9C flew to the left sky, overlooking the actions of the White Elephant Commando from a distance.
It has to be said that there is not much technical content in using the hook ladder, because the tonnage of this ship is not large, only 3,200 tons, and the height of the ship is only three or four meters, so it is not difficult to hook and climb.
The difficulty lies in the fact that the rubber boat is coming in the direction of the ship, which means it has to quickly hook the side of the ship in a short period of time, otherwise it will easily miss the natural gas ship.
I saw the boat operators of the two rubber boats attaching themselves to the natural gas ship and immediately started reversing to stabilize the rubber boats and try to keep the speed of the natural gas ship synchronized.
In this short period of time, the White Elephant commandos have completed a series of actions such as hooking up ladders, climbing, and boarding the ship.
The successful boarding of the two assault teams means half the battle is won.
Next, we will see how the IMSF commandos use VBSS tactics.
"Look, look! Look!"
Fatty Wei shouted.
"There's someone on their head!"
The two assault groups moved in tandem, one behind the other, along the port side deck and close to the edge of the trapezoidal raised cargo compartment, moving towards the bridge.
Generally speaking, the bridge is a key area that pirates must control.
According to past experience, unless the crew members hide in the safety cabin, the pirates will go crazy and divide their forces on the ship to find them. Otherwise, as long as they get on the ship and control the crew members, they will escort a large part of them into the cab, which is conducive to control.
Hostages can also allow crew members and captains to continue driving the ship and follow their instructions to escape.
This approach is similar to hijacking. It also requires someone to control the cockpit and hold the pilot hostage.
There is no problem with the direction of the IMSF assault.
But now there is a little episode.
A pirate suddenly stepped out from behind a door on the second floor of the pilothouse, carrying his old AK47, and walked unsteadily towards the stern of the ship.
The gangway to the bridge is located near the stern of the bridge, which is the direction the pirate went.
The pirate arrived at the pilothouse near the stern of the ship. He lowered his head and glanced at the position of the stern propeller, then glanced at Hans Cat's warship that had been following not far behind the ship, raised his middle finger, and
He spat thick phlegm into the sea.
After that, he did not leave, but took out a pack of cigarettes, actually took out a lighter and lit it, puffing away the smoke while blowing the sea breeze.
Li Zheng was stunned.
Somali pirates are really ignorant and fearless.
This is a natural gas ship, and he actually smoked carelessly on it.
But when I thought about it, it seemed normal. Otherwise, how could they dare to rob such a ship?
Li Zheng suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.
He actually hoped that the pirates would know what kind of ship it was and what it contained, so that they would at least have a little respect for the ship.
If they do not know or even understand the power of natural gas ships, they will seek death without any scruples, and it is easy for big trouble to happen.
The leading team of the IMSF commando team had arrived at the bottom of the gangway, and after observing it, began to walk up the gangway.
I don’t know if their intelligence has not been updated or because the White Elephant warship simply did not monitor the various changes on the ship in time. When the first member of the assault team approached the exit of the gangway, the muzzle of his gun was actually facing the front of the ship——
In other words, he was aiming at the exit of the driver's cab of the driving building, preparing to go up to the second floor and heading directly towards the driver's cab. He also predicted that the pirates would appear in that direction.
The gangway is very narrow, as is the case with cargo ships. To get up the gangway, you walk up one by one. According to VBSS requirements, it should be near the exit of the gangway, with one team member facing forward and one facing behind.
It just so happened that the muzzle of the man behind was also facing forward...
"Fuck, he's behind you!"
On the helicopter, Fatty Wei was so anxious that he almost jumped out and took command himself.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Zhang Jianli immediately contacted the command center and requested that the latest information on the ship be transmitted to Bai Xiang and conveyed to the commandos.
Originally, Baixiang also had carrier-based aircraft.
But Baixiang sent the carrier-based aircraft to the right side of the deck to attract the pirates' attention. Their original plan was probably to draw the pirates' attention to the right side of the ship, and then let their commandos approach from the left.
and boarded the ship for rescue.
But the plan couldn't keep up with the changes. If they asked Rabbit to cooperate, Li Zheng and the others would be in the sky at this time and could provide intelligence support.
But the white elephant didn't do that. He insisted on going his own way and went it alone with confidence. Even Hans Cat, John Bull and Gallic Chicken didn't let them interfere.
They were the first to discover that the natural gas ship had been hijacked, so of course they had some initiative.
Zhang Jian's information was quickly sent out, and the duty team leader at the command center also knew that the problem was serious.
So I quickly contacted Baixiang's warship through the channel.
only……
Everything seems a little late...
Real-time intelligence transmission in special operations operations is a very important part.
During the Battle of Mogadishu, Somalia, the Eagle family's Ranger convoy planned to go to the rescue after learning that the Black Hawk had fallen. As a result, the aerial intelligence support at that time was a few Black Hawk helicopters, which were observed and guided from the air.
It was right for the convoy to move forward, but there was a big loophole in their command system. All on-site intelligence collected by the helicopters must first be transferred to one of the command planes, and then the two air guides on the command plane informed the convoy on the ground.
.
This transmission and transfer results in information lag.
Especially for a convoy traveling at high speed in the city, which direction should you turn when there is an intersection ahead? Originally, if the aerial reconnaissance helicopter directly contacted the lead vehicle of the convoy, there would be no information lag. Instead, it deflected the direction, and then turned to the command plane and then transferred to the convoy.
It became second-hand information. Within a few seconds, the convoy had missed the correct intersection and turned at the next wrong intersection.
The result was that the convoy was scurrying around the city of Mogadishu like a headless chicken, and eventually got lost. They were greeted by either bullets or RPG rockets wherever they passed, until they suffered heavy casualties and had to evacuate.
The result of this lag in battlefield information is a disastrous defeat.
At this time, the White Elephant IMSF seems to be making the same mistake as the Eagle Sauce Special Forces.
As expected, it is the inheritance of a master's family, and it does not mean that one family does not enter the same family.
Although the information about the No. 2 ship was transmitted to Bai Xiang's ship, it was digested first-hand by Bai Xiang and then transferred to the IMSF commandos, which became second-hand information.
Like the Eagle Special Forces in Mogadishu back then, the IMSF commandos from Baixiang's family had already climbed to the second floor of the driving building from the gangway before the information was transmitted to their channel.
The pirate who was smoking at the rear of the bridge witnessed a scene that shocked his jaw——
Two teams of armed commandos wearing black anti-terrorist uniforms, with black paint on their faces, and black helmets and turbans walked through the ramp to the second floor one by one as he watched, as if they hadn't seen him.
The third member of White Elephant finally saw the pirate, and the pirate woke up from the boundless shock at this time. He didn't even bother to spit out the cigarette butts in his mouth, and raised the AK in his hand to make a shuttle——
Da da da--
On the helicopter, Li Zheng gently moved his eyes away from the scope.
