There was already a glimmer of light in the sky, and it seemed that there were signs of dawn.
This is a dry valley.
There are hillsides on both sides, with almost no grass growing. Maybe this was once a river bed, but due to changes in natural conditions and environment, it became a desert.
Qin Fei and Mist quickly unloaded the heavy equipment behind the pile of rocks.
Choosing this location is very convenient for observation - there are messy stones everywhere, a dirt road runs straight through the dry valley in front, and there is a shallow slope directly north of the road, running almost east-west.
The surface of the shallow slope is very smooth and looks like a salt-alkali flat.
The location of Qin Fei and Mist happened to be behind a pile of rocks under an exposed cliff on the southern hillside. Hiding here, they could observe the outside without being discovered by outsiders. Even if the sun passed from where they were,
Moving from the left to the right of the location, the lenses on their surveillance equipment are unlikely to reflect sunlight and expose themselves.
The two men gently took out the equipment from the backpack, put it into the recessed gap in the cliff, and then took out the important item in the backpack - the camouflage blanket.
Every veteran will use different camouflage materials according to the terrain. In the eyes of rookies, it seems that ghillie suits are everything, so many rookies even use fluffy ghillie suits in urban combat, which makes people laugh a bit.
Disguise is about adapting to local conditions. Before coming, Qin Fei and Mist had studied local satellite images.
This is obviously a barren land, and it is definitely not suitable to use a mesh ghillie suit, because a bunch of furry things suddenly appear on the bare rock surface. Even if the color is also earthy yellow, people can't help but look at it a few times.
.
The skill of tactical camouflage is that you have to blend in with the surrounding environment. To achieve this, Qin Fei must first make his camouflage look not obtrusive in the surrounding environment.
Compared with ghillie suits, camouflage blankets do not have this problem.
The camouflage blanket Qin Fei chose was the same color as the stones and sand here, both earthy yellow.
The camouflage blanket does not have any silky or velvety external objects, nor does it have the kind of plant camouflage on the mesh ghillie suit. It looks like a piece of yellow and hard cloth, but when Qin Fei put it on and lay down behind the stone
, it quickly blended into the background here.
Even if someone were to look here from dozens of meters away, he could only see a mess of piles of rocks. Qin Fei, who was wearing a camouflage blanket, was indistinguishable from the surrounding gravel and rock walls.
Mist expertly equipped their PSC-5 satellite communications device, covered it in camouflage, and linked it to a military-grade ruggedized laptop.
This reinforced military laptop is anti-fall, shock-proof, waterproof and dust-proof, and is specially designed for field operations. Moreover, its shells of different colors can be replaced at any time, which is more conducive to concealment when used in the field.
Soon, the communication between the two and the Tiyo command center became smooth. This PSC-5 satellite communication device can provide a secure real-time voice link for the reconnaissance team.
Although the latest encrypted satellite phone does not require the use of an additional portable communication device, which ostensibly makes it easier for two people to reduce the burden and quickly connect to the channel, the satellite phone has a weakness, that is, it cannot send image data.
Although the PSC-5 is larger and heavier than the encrypted satellite phone, its advantages are obvious. As long as the data cable is connected, it can process all the images captured by the two-person reconnaissance team's camera, video camera, and helmet-mounted camera through the computer.
and then sent to the command center.
Therefore, in such situations where extreme reconnaissance is required, PSC-5 satellite communication equipment is indispensable.
After completing the communication setup, General Mister placed his laptop on a rock on his right front side, handed a camera to Qin Fei, and he gently placed the MK11 MOD0 sniper rifle on his left side.
After everything was done, Mist took out a small tripod and pointed a custom-made military SLR camera from Leica at everything in the dry valley.
To the east of the huge dry valley, a group of buildings the size of a football field appeared on the gentle valley bottom.
The building complex is surrounded by barbed wire. Soldiers with live ammunition patrol the barbed wire. There are also three wooden watchtowers located in a triangular shape at three points of the building complex. The watchtowers are more than five meters high. Each watchtower
There is a soldier armed with an AK-47 monitoring everything within sight.
"The guards are really tight!" Mist couldn't help but said, "I don't know how many armed personnel there are."
Qin Fei used a camera to take pictures of the entire building complex, then fixed it to his side with a small tripod, adjusted the focus and aimed at the base.
He turned over and stretched his waist and said: "There seems to be no movement, Lao Mi, is your information accurate? Didn't it say that it is being demolished?"
"I don't know either." Mist said as he took out a Carl Zeiss binocular and fixed it on a tripod - several high-precision monitoring equipment made Qin Fei and Mist look like
Just like the zoologists waiting in the wild for rare wild animals to appear.
"I originally said it would be better to send a drone here, but I didn't expect Michelle to disagree. Look, let the two of us run here. Not only will we be exhausted, but it will also be very dangerous. We are in Jeb
There are drones in Tiyo. The military has spent so much money on the drone project. They can actually perform this task for us. Then we can drink cold beer, listen to music and watch movies in Tiyo.
of……"
"Okay, stop complaining." Qin Fei turned his eyes away from the camera lens, turned his head and looked at the resentful Mist and said: "Although what you said makes sense, drones can never completely detect live people.
Instead, the situation here is too complicated, and it is still beneficial to send us here. For example, it is impossible for drones to see images at eye level like we can now, and by observing on site, we can judge the other party's intentions and intentions.
Motive, but drones can't do this. If an emergency occurs, at least the two of us are still at the scene, and maybe we can control it."
"What bullshit benefits, Qin, you are really naive. Michelle is not an ordinary woman. You underestimate her thoughts. Let me tell you, the people who engage in intelligence are different from the people in our special forces. You can't trust it."
." Mist said: "I think it's just the hostile form in the subconscious that is causing trouble."
Qin Fei asked: "What do you mean?"
"What do you mean?" Mist rolled his eyes and said, "You still don't understand? After all, Michelle is still wary of the Russians, so she sent us to take risks."
"Russian?"
"Yes, there are Russian military ships escorting and so-called searching for pirates in the Gulf of Aden. Their radars will detect the activities of our drones. Michelle doesn't want the Russians to know about our secret operations in Somalia, so you see
We parachuted in using a Gulfstream business jet, not a military aircraft."
Qin Fei thought about it and felt that what Mist said was reasonable.
NATO has always been very wary of Russia. This is caused by history and it did not happen overnight.
Mister continued: "To put it bluntly, Michelle doesn't want the Russians to know the trajectory of our actions before taking action, so that they may intervene."
"Why intervene? This matter has nothing to do with the Russians?"
"You can't say that." Mist lay down and looked up at the sky, thinking thoughtfully: "If the nuclear project is true, where did the materials and warheads for nuclear weapons come from? I think Michelle thought it was from the former Soviet Union.
It leaked out from one of the union republics. If the Russians knew about this, do you think they would have a hand in it? What's more, if it really leaked out because of their lax supervision, it would be a huge scandal for them.
, do you think the agent over at MI17 doesn’t want to get this thing to blackmail the Russian government? So before the operation officially starts, she will not let organizations like the KGB know our whereabouts."
Qin Fei was taken aback and froze.
Mister's analysis makes sense, and I really didn't think of it before.
In fact, it's not surprising. Mist has been serving in the Delta Force. Apart from the KB elements, the imaginary enemies are probably the Russians.
Subconsciously, Mist and Michel had the same overall view. On the contrary, Qin Fei came from the PLA army and was not as sensitive as Mist and Michel when it came to the Russian issue.
.
Although Mist once said that nuclear weapons and the like could not come from Russia, Qin Fei was a little worried now.
What if, that thing really comes from Russia...
grass!
Qin Fei's heart skipped a beat.
The situation is exactly as Michelle guessed, and something big is going to happen. (To be continued)
