In order to destroy the processing plant, the Colombian government started preparations several months ago. It took several weeks to first mobilize combat personnel. They transferred the Colombian military and police involved in the operation from the interior to the naval base west of Quibdo. On call.
Subsequently, an F16 fleet belonging to the U.S. Air Force also stationed at the surrounding military bases. After conducting several high-altitude reconnaissance satellites, they formulated multiple combat plans based on different situations.
Then, as the personnel and equipment were gradually in place, the operation began immediately.
The Colombian military police in vehicles first launched attacks from all directions, directly blocking all access roads to the processing plant. Then, the US Air Force's F16 fighter jets and the Colombian Air Force's Dragonfly attack aircraft took off and began to continue bombing the processing plant, and even F16 Guided bombs were also mounted to bomb the drug dealer camps around the processing plant. The bombs fell from the sky, sending the drug dealers who were caught off guard one by one into the sky.
After dropping a batch of bombs, the F16s of the US Air Force returned to the airport. After all, it cost a lot for them to dispatch one time, and they were either performing tasks such as seizing air supremacy, or they were just throwing bombs out of mind. Now there is a camp outside the drug dealers. and the warnings have been almost blown up by precision bombing, then the rest can be left to the Dragonfly attack aircraft.
Under the continuous bombing by Dragonfly attack planes, more than twenty helicopters loaded with PCs and Colombian contingents rose from the ground, crossed the forests and rivers below, and then landed less than five kilometers away from the processing plant.
"This battle is really big!"
Hannibal, dressed in rainforest camouflage, jumped out of the helicopter in two steps, followed by several communications troops. As a commander, he naturally did not have to go to the front line, but he had to contact Colombia and the Drug Enforcement Administration, and everyone was not in the same system. , then naturally we need to buy more radio stations.
"Act according to the planned plan!"
Hannibal didn't say anything else. The action plan had been distributed to everyone. Each PC knew the action route well. To put it bluntly, their route of advancement was even predetermined. Therefore, Hannibal simply delegated power. Two squad captains were given, each of whom was responsible for their respective combat areas.
The processing plant is backed by a mountain, and there are only three directions for access. Now that all three directions are blocked, PC is almost the same as catching a turtle in a urn.
The distance of five kilometers is not short for PCs. The two detachments that maintained a regular marching speed arrived at the processing plant after spending more than an hour. At this time, Colombia's Dragonfly attack aircraft were still maintaining their speed. In the attack on the processing plant and the surrounding drug dealers' strongholds, the bombs and rockets exploded into flames and raised a column of smoke. Under such strong and powerful continuous attacks, the drug dealers on the ground were already defeated, and a considerable number of them had even given up. He resisted and began to think of ways to escape from the area.
After all the joint forces composed of PCs and task forces arrived at the processing plant, the detachment commander immediately stopped the air strikes. Those Dragonfly attack aircraft had no ability to identify friend or foe at all. They wanted to attack now, and then be used by their own people. If it explodes into the sky, that would be hilarious!
As an important cash cow of the Medellin Group, Pablo valued this processing plant very much. For the sake of insurance, when it was established, the processing plant was a semi-underground structure. The engineering team dug dozens of meters underground to Establish laboratories, workshops, etc.
Of course, semi-underground does not mean that there is no ground in the processing plant. Its ground scale is also huge, and there are even devices such as transmission belts and large elevators to assist product transportation.
At this moment, many facilities on the ground, including garages, cold storages, security personnel dormitories and other buildings have been blown away by bombs, but the main body of the processing plant is still there. It is a slope of nearly fifteen degrees, and it has been from The road outside extends underground to the main body of the factory. The road is so wide that it can even accommodate four vehicles traveling in parallel at the same time.
At this moment, there were no traces of drug dealers outside the processing plant, but there were scattered workers running out of the ground, and there were even a few valuable-looking guys among them, because they were surrounded by armed guards. Secondly, these guys are not wearing workers' uniforms, but rather elegant chemical lab coats. The dark green and white clothes are extremely conspicuous in the crowd.
At this time, in a side hall of Jixia Academy, Yan Lu was standing at the door and looking around vigilantly.
Two old men sat opposite each other in the hall. These two were Master Xun and the contemporary Gui Guzi.
"You have taken on a good disciple. It's not in vain that you went to find Beimingzi to help him find the "Book of Changes" and help him perfect himself." Guiguzi pinched his beard and said to Master Xun.
"It's just a stubborn person, he still has a long way to go." Xunzi said.
"Everyone has their own path to take. I'm curious, what path has your disciple chosen?" Guiguzi asked curiously.
If you want to become a master, the first step is to have your own path. This path can also be said to be a road, but it is the future you choose. Only by determining the path in your heart and clarifying the path under your feet can you step into the path of becoming a master. The crucial step was missed by both Ziyou and Gongsun Bai on the high platform.
Neither of them has a clear idea of the way and the way.
"Are you sometimes curious?" Xunzi seemed to have seen something strange.
"Of course, the overall situation was determined back then, and a variable like him appeared, and the overall situation that was originally planned was instantly disrupted. If you hadn't rescued him first, he would have become a puppet in the hands of Donghuang Taiyi." Guiguzi said.
"The movement of heaven is constant, and it is neither preserved by Yao nor destroyed by Jie. The general trend of the world is changing all the time. The general trend you have set is nothing more than the small trend you have seen. If you want to replace the big trend with a small trend, do you think it is feasible? "?" Xunzi said leisurely.
After hearing Xunzi's words, Guiguzi just sighed lightly and said nothing.
"In the first round, Confucian Ziyou won." The person in charge of the debate shouted.
Gongsun Long signaled Gongsun Bai to continue.
"I wonder what you want to debate next?" Gongsun Bai looked at Ziyou and said.
Everyone looked at Ziyou.
"I have already chosen one debate. How about I leave it to you to choose the second debate?" Ziyou said.
Gongsun Bai looked at Ziyou, his face gradually became cloudy and uncertain for a while. Everyone also fell silent and waited for Gongsun Bai. Gradually, Gongsun Bai's eyes became firmer.
"How about we have a debate about this world?"
As soon as the word "tianxia" came out, everyone's interest was aroused, not because of the freshness of the topic, but because "tianxia" is too vast. No matter the sages or today's giants, what they studied was just one thing under the world. That’s all.
At this time, the originally clear sky was gradually shrouded by dark clouds, the dull thunder gradually sounded, and the light in the hall gradually dimmed.
"Okay, I wonder how Brother Gongsun wants to argue?" Ziyou also rarely became serious, and the fire in Gongsun Bai's eyes had to make him serious.
"How can I dare to talk when I am in the world? I have traveled for five years and traveled all over the seven countries. Along the way, I have seen a lot and learned a lot. However, the confusion in my heart has not diminished, but has increased. I think What do you think of the general trend of the world?" Gongsun Bai's eyes burst out with a bright light, and he stared directly at Ziyou.
In the past five years, as he gradually traveled across the seven countries, the dream he once imagined gradually shattered, and he changed from an idealist to a realist.
What he saw was not a world of happy grudges, but a cruel reality. Perennial wars, how many people were separated, their families were destroyed, how many people were displaced, starved to death everywhere, and the land that countless people relied on for survival turned into scorched earth. , how many young people were forced to go to the battlefield and died tragically, leaving their elderly parents in tears and cut off the hope of future life.
In some more serious places, he saw people exchanging food for food. In a village, there were only some elderly people working in the fields, just to have some food for a day. He saw the old people working in the fields with hoes in their hands. After falling, he never waved it again. He had seen some officials living extravagantly all day long, and the kings indulged in vanity, without caring about the lives of the lower class people, and even used people's names for entertainment.
The more he came into contact with reality, the more horrified he felt. He wanted to change this world, but he was extremely powerless. He didn't know how to change it, like a baby looking at an empty building.
The armed guards wanted to send these people to the garage, but by this time PCs had begun to infiltrate the processing plant, and the garage was controlled early. Then, these armed guards were ambushed.
The well-prepared PCs killed five or six armed guards with just a few bursts of fire, and a few guys lost their weapons quickly, which made the Colombian soldiers in the task force feel regretful.
The guys dressed as researchers were even more unbearable. They didn't even dare to run when the gunshots were fired. They just stood there in a daze. It wasn't until they saw the heavily armed PCs that they shouted surrender in fluent English. .z.
The PCs were not polite either. They immediately stripped several people down to their underwear and made sure they had no hidden weapons before conducting a surprise interrogation.
These guys are experts that Pablo hired from Europe at a high price to be responsible for the research and development of various products. Yes, Pablo pays great attention to technological innovation. In order to facilitate the transportation of drugs, he even People developed a new method to melt the drugs in liquid, then soak them in jeans, and then send the jeans over to liquefy, purify and restore the drugs.
It can be said that these guys are all important talents in Medellin.
But now, these guys belong to the CIA!
The team commander specially requested a confidential line and reported the situation. Then, the CIA team in Colombia quickly sent a helicopter to pick up these guys. As for their subsequent use, Hannibal didn't want to know and didn't need to know.
Compared with the researchers who were taken away, the armed guards were in a miserable state. They had no value to Shadow Company, so the task of interrogating them was left to the task force!
Of course, Major Carrillo's methods were cruel without even thinking about it. In addition to beating and threatening waterboarding, they also brought plastic bags and vise. The former was used to put on the drug dealers' heads to suffocate them, and the latter was used to pull out the drug dealers' heads. For teeth and nails.
Of course, these methods are actually kinder than drug dealers. After all, the task force's ruthlessness is only aimed at drug dealers. Under the frantic interrogation of Colombian soldiers, the armed guards quickly revealed the situation underground in the processing plant. Ten said it.
