Compared with the sluggish performance of the Iraqi special forces, it is very different from the conventional perception of special forces, and it is not even comparable to the reconnaissance companies of major countries.
The Yanlong team, which is also a special force, is in several levels of better condition.
Not to mention a few from the Ace of Spades commando team, who had already actively participated in the post-war clean-up work, helping to treat injured people in emergency situations and sorting and assembling the blown-up corpses.
Zhuang Yan and three other people from Lone Wolf have also gradually adapted to the harsh scene.
Except for the fact that too many civilians were killed and injured, which made people feel pity, and the overall mood was a bit low, there were no problems in other aspects.
After working for more than ten minutes, Jackie Chan finally repaired the Fox armored vehicle.
Seeing that Yi's special forces have been defeated and can no longer help in the rescue operation, forcing them to participate might be counterproductive.
In addition, there are corpses and wounded everywhere here, and someone is urgently needed to deal with them.
Jackie Chan decided to part ways.
He led the Yanlong team to continue to the small town of Bassem, and rescued Ms. Deng Mei in the shortest possible time to prevent Deng Mei from becoming the next victim.
The Yi special forces, which no longer had much combat power, were all left to contact the Ivia government forces and coordinate the treatment of these civilians and wounded people.
The only Fox armored vehicle that had been repaired was used as the Yanlong team's operational vehicle.
Jackie Chan found the Ivia Special Forces, one of the improvised leaders, and communicated his ideas with him.
The person in charge was relieved to learn that no more rescue operations were needed.
Obviously already scared!
I'm scared!
He quickly agreed to Jackie Chan's suggestion, fearing that Jackie Chan would regret it, and agreed to stay and take care of the wounded and civilians, leaving the only armored vehicles to the Yanlong team.
Jackie Chan did not laugh at or belittle him, after all, this was not their business.
After happily ending the communication with the other party, Jackie Chan informed each team member of the next action plan via radio.
He also gave his teammates five minutes to replenish as much equipment and ammunition as possible on site.
Everyone suffered a lot of losses in the battle just now. Next, we need to enter the enemy's base camp for rescue, which is destined to be a difficult and fierce battle.
It is necessary to replenish as much ammunition as possible.
As for whether we can get enough supplements, we can only do our best.
After all, the rebel artillery was so brutal that it blew up almost all the vehicles in the convoy, especially the loading trucks, which received special attention.
The two trucks carrying people and goods were blown up, and ammunition was also blown up all over the ground.
It's hard to say how many will be used.
Just when everyone in the Yanlong team transformed into "trash guys" and looked for usable weapons and ammunition everywhere, Xia Lan rushed to Jackie Chan.
The Ivia special forces were already collecting civilians, and Xia Lan was called over by them just now.
When Xia Lan learned that she needed to gather in place and wait for the convoy sent by the government troops to come over, and no longer go to participate in the rescue, Xia Lan suddenly became as anxious as an ant on a hot pot.
She doesn't know yet that her assistant is dead, and she also wants to know the secret of the yellow cake.
And all this in the small town of Bassem!
Staying here and being removed to the safe area together with the civilians was not Xia Lan's purpose of following here. Her purpose was to go to Bassem Town.
After hearing Xia Lan's impatient request, Jackie Chan agreed without a second's hesitation.
Xia Lan was stunned!
She was still thinking about all kinds of excuses in her mind, and what kind of methods she would use to persuade Jackie Chan if he refused to take her there.
In the end, Jackie Chan didn't need her persuasion at all and gave her an unexpected surprise.
The reason why Jackie Chan is so decisive is that Xia Lan is actually quite good personally, she is not an unreasonable shrew, and it really helps.
You must know that this trip is going to the town of Bassem. If you want to avoid the rebel soldiers in the town, you will inevitably need to contact the civilians in the town.
A group of heavily armed foreign men really didn't communicate well with them.
On the contrary, Xia Lan, as a woman who has lived here and has a certain understanding of local customs, can make up for it very well.
Xia Lan can speak fluent Arabic and fills the biggest gap in the Yanlong team.
No one on the Yanlong team can speak Arabic, including Jackie Chan, but there are several who can speak English, French, and Spanish.
And the last point.
Because Xia Lan is a French-Chinese, she is not within the rescue scope of the ZG Navy, nor is she a target that the Yanlong Team must protect.
If Xia Lan really did something wrong, Jackie Chan could completely leave her alone.
It's reasonable and there's nothing wrong with it.
The biggest problem actually lies in Xia Lan's character. Her impatience may bring trouble to the Yanlong team when something happens.
But this matter is easy to solve. If you take good care of her, you can prevent it.
overall.
Bringing Xia Lan along had more advantages than disadvantages, so Jackie Chan didn't refuse.
five minutes later!
"Attention all units, get on the bus immediately."
When the time for preparing ammunition and supplies was over, Jackie Chan gave the order to set off on the radio, and the team members ran towards the Fox armored vehicle one after another.
This German Army armored transport vehicle, developed and won the bid by Germany's Daimler-Benz and produced by Thyssen-Henschel, can seat a total of twelve people including the cockpit.
There are only nine members of the Yanlong team plus Xia Lan. Even if Jackie Chan's big guy is put down, the car looks very loose.
Saying goodbye to the Yi special forces who stayed to "guard the corpse", the Yanlong team aliens rode in a Fox armored vehicle and began the final rescue journey.
Eighty kilometers from the small town of Bassem does not take long for a Fox armored vehicle that can run at a maximum speed of 105 kilometers and can run at 60 or 70 kilometers in the mountains.
A little over an hour later.
After the Fox armored vehicle arrived at the hillside, the on-board computer showed that it was less than one kilometer away from the small town of Bassem.
Not knowing the situation and terrain of Bassam Town, Jackie Chan did not dare to drive the car directly there.
They chose to drive behind a nearby mountain and parked the car in the palm forest at the foot of the mountain to hide it. The other team members got out of the car and stayed on guard.
Jackie Chan personally took Cheng Cai and Wu Zhe, and the three of them ran to the top of the mountain together.
It's said to be a mountain, but it's actually just a big mound.
The overall altitude is estimated to be less than fifty meters. The hillside going up is very gentle. The entire mountain is bare, with not even a few grass growing.
It is already a desert close to desertification, and there is an air of desolation everywhere.
The Middle East seems to have this kind of terrain. There is nothing special about Ivia. It looks deserted, but in fact there is "gold" everywhere.
As long as the countries in the Middle East can safely support their people and make money, the resources underground are enough to make them rich in the sky.
However this is impossible.
The four words "huai jiqi" are enough to summarize it. It is very difficult for countries in the Middle East to become rich, because there are always endless battles to fight.
As for why there is a war even though there is gold all over the place, everyone who understands this will understand.
Outsiders will definitely be jealous of having so much money. If your country is peaceful and the people are safe, how can they step in and steal the money? Only when you cause chaos can he come in and take advantage of you.
Jackie Chan and the three of them stepped on the sand and spent a few minutes running from the bottom of the mountain to the top of the mountain. They found a high point and began to observe the distance.
It looks even more desolate from the mountain, and everything is yellow at a glance.
There's no end in sight!
However, in such a desolate world, about one kilometer below this mountain, there is a river winding down.
Although the river between the two mountains looks very rough, it looks like it could dry up at any time.
The river water in many places is so shallow that the bottom is exposed. Not to mention that a car can easily drive across it, even if you walk there, it will probably not be submerged to your knees.
Just on the other side of the river is the small town of Bassem, the destination of this trip.
Although the name of this place is "town", its actual size is not even comparable to that of villages in China. It is just a gathering place with at most a hundred households.
They relied on the water from this river to survive in this place.
Jackie Chan scanned the outside of the village through the observation mirror and soon found signs of human activity, and they were the enemies to be dealt with.
I saw two rebel soldiers holding rifles and wearing black hoods on the river bank. They were driving three unarmed civilians with guns and loading barrels from the river into a pickup truck.
It was difficult for the three civilians to lift it up, as the bucket was obviously filled with water.
Jackie Chan ignored this group of people for the time being, turned the observation mirror in other directions, and looked around the periphery of the village, but found no other living people.
I have a general understanding of the overall layout and characteristics of the entire town.
The overall style is different from the previous ones in the city, although it is not as luxurious as the bustling city with high-rise buildings and feasting.
But after all, it is still a reinforced concrete jungle and can barely be regarded as a modern city.
But the small town of Bassem that appeared in front of us was like returning to China in the 1940s. At first glance, it was all one-story mud houses.
There are only a few two-story houses with balconies. They must have been built with some cement and lime.
Nothing substantial can be seen from the outside, and no useful intelligence can be collected. If you want to find Deng Mei and rescue her, you can only conduct on-the-spot reconnaissance inside the town.
After confirming the next course of action, Jackie Chan immediately turned to the left to make arrangements: "We need to infiltrate and find local villagers for questioning in order to know where Ms. Deng Mei is being held.
In order to ensure smooth communication of the radio, hoe, you immediately find a suitable location to set up a remote antenna, and everyone else comes to gather and prepare to hike into the town. "
"receive!"
As the team's communications officer, Wu Zhe took off his tactical backpack and took out a portable wireless antenna, quickly assembled it and found a location to set it up.
After Wu Zhe set up the antenna and verified that it could transfer the team's radio signal, Cheng Cai and others who were on guard at the foot of the mountain also caught up.
"Set off!"
After all the Yanlong team members were assembled, Jackie Chan waved his hand and started taking action.
In order to prevent being discovered by the rebels in the village, the Yanlong team did not drive directly to the river, but chose to hike there from the top of the mountain.
Using a trot to advance all the way, the distance of less than one kilometer only takes four to five minutes.
After crossing the river and arriving at the outskirts of the small town of Bassem, Jackie Chan made a pincer gesture.
The eight-man team immediately split into two and advanced side by side.
In a completely unfamiliar and complex environment where the opponent's combat effectiveness is relatively weak, the team is divided into two groups and goes hand in hand, which is more suitable for better flexibility.
Compared with the team moving forward as a whole, it is easy to become passive when encountering enemies, and it is difficult to get out of the situation.
The pincer tactic is like two horns, moving forward in tandem, stretching the team wider and taking care of each other.
No matter which team is attacked, the other team can also rescue them from the outside.
Has extremely high flexibility!
Of course, everything is a double-edged sword, with good and bad sides.
This tactic can only be used in a single-soldier crushing battle. If the opponent is equally strong, the pincer tactic cannot be used.
Because splitting into two means that the strength is dispersed, it is easier to be defeated by the enemy one by one.
A team becomes more powerful when twisted into a rope.
Perhaps the rebels were overconfident and did not expect that just because they captured a ZG woman, they would attract a group of top special forces from ZG.
Or maybe after the rebels took control of this town, they became accustomed to being arrogant and unscrupulous, and they were completely defenseless.
The Yanlong team entered the village from the outside and did not make a specific choice. They just followed the principle of proximity and chose the nearest courtyard as their target.
The courtyard was raided from two directions: the front door and the back door.
The houses in the small town of Bassem are all short and old, but perhaps because of their living habits, their houses are connected to each other.
The courtyard that Jackie Chan and the others identified was formed by many families.
Jackie Chan didn't know how many people lived inside.
But that's not important!
The Yanlong team only needs to enter through the front and back doors, which is equivalent to blocking the front and back doors of the yard to prevent anyone from running out.
There is no distinction between men, women, old or young when entering the house, there are only two goals.
Those with guns and those without guns.
If you encounter anyone with a gun, you will kill him. If you encounter someone without a gun, you will control him and take him to a place for management. Later, he will be handed over to Xia Lan for communication.
This was what I expected before taking action, and I was basically prepared for the worst.
but.
When Jackie Chan and his party entered the house, they found that the goddess of luck was on their side.
Fortunately, it happened to be lunch time, and everyone in the courtyard gathered in one place, eating together in the large room in the middle.
After the town of Bassem was controlled by rebel soldiers, in order to control the civilians here, the food, clothing, housing and transportation were all managed by the rebels.
The entire courtyard gathered together, which saved the Yanlong team a lot of trouble.
Jackie Chan led the team to rush in from the front door, and Wu Zhe's team came in from the back door to complete the pre-action coordination by pressing the microphone.
"action!"
When Jackie Chan whispered the order, the two groups quickly broke into the hall.
