Long Zhan and Murphy's team took a C17 and took off overnight from Virginia Bay Island Airport on the east coast of the United States. They refueled once when entering Liberia.
It was the morning of the third day when we arrived at the Bagram Air Base built by the US military in Kunar Province, Afghanistan.
Flying on a transport plane for more than 30 hours is not without suffering for those who fly.
Fortunately, such a long time also brings convenience.
This gave Long Zhan enough quiet space to think, and based on the fragmentary memories he had left, he came up with several ways to solve the "disaster" of Operation Red Wing.
As for whether it will work by then, uncontrollable weather and location account for half of the factors.
Dragon battles are completely unpredictable!
After thinking of countermeasures, Long Zhan spent the remaining nearly 20 hours to kill the boring time in order to increase the chance of success of the plan.
He used his communicative talent to get in touch with the people of Murphy's team.
By hosting a small gambling poker game, a rifle and pistol disassembly competition in person, throwing cans with bullets from three meters away, etc.
This series of mini-games, which are more fun the more people join them, quickly became part of Team Murphy.
The relationship between men is simpler than that between women. The relationship between men in the army is even more pure. As long as they can play together, they are buddies.
One after another, Long Zhan's life-changing methods turned the boring time into happiness.
If you want to fit into a circle, don't be too simple.
After Long Zhan's operation, Long Zhan and Murphy's team, who were strangers before boarding the plane, were already arm in arm when they got off the plane.
Especially the "recruit egg" Sean, who lost to Long Zhan in throwing bullets, assembling firearms, and fighting and wrestling. Now he is completely convinced.
Not to mention becoming a little fan of Long Zhan, at least he was full of awe and admiration.
SEAL veterans such as Marcus and Murphy also no longer have any doubts about Long Zhan's strength through Long Zhan's amazing performance in various mini-games.
He completely accepted Long Zhan as a foreign aid and regarded him as one of his own.
…
When Long Zhan and Team Murphy got off the plane, someone immediately came to receive them at the airport and took them to the SEAL camp.
Almost every U.S. airport in Afghanistan is equivalent to a military base.
It is not only used for the take-off and landing of aircraft, but also serves as a transportation hub for the global deployment of the US military. It also serves as a comprehensive military distribution center. Each airport has military camps covering an area of tens of thousands of square meters.
Marine Corps, SEALs, Rangers, Green Berets, 160th Special Army Aviation...
Major American military units live together, not interfering with each other but complementing each other.
The SEALs also have a camp here, but Team Long Zhan and Murphy did not go there. Instead, they were taken to an independent camp.
For this special reconnaissance mission, a combat command center was temporarily established.
The name sounds very tall, but in fact it is just a few large military tents and a few wooden single-story houses.
Complete pragmatism, without any bells and whistles.
One of the cabins, which was more than 30 square meters, became the dormitory of Long Zhan and Murphy's team.
Nine grown-ups crammed into a space of more than 30 square meters. It really couldn't be called very comfortable, and even describing it as crowded would not be an exaggeration.
Fortunately, each bed was separated by wooden boards to create small single rooms with doors.
It looks very much like the private rooms in Internet cafes from 10 years ago.
Compared to the Datongpu where the green team trained, Long Zhan was already very satisfied with the conditions of this dormitory. At least he didn't have to worry about "men on top of men" sleeping at night.
As for when the operation would begin, Murphy, as the team commander, went to the person in charge.
The answer I got was very painful——
The action time is to be determined, just wait for notification.
"The operators were called in in a hurry, but all the preliminary preparations were not in place. The efficiency was very different from the DG. No wonder the operation ended so tragically and became the darkest day in the history of the SEALs."
After Long Zhan learned the pending news, he couldn't help but complained crazily in his heart.
Although three shepherds appeared in Operation Red Wings, this unpredictable natural disaster that completely broke the plan was due to the fact that the preliminary preparations were not in place.
At least in terms of intelligence collection, they will definitely bear the biggest blame.
For example:
Murphy's team arrived at the scheduled lurking point, only to find that the woods in this area had been cut to pieces and had to temporarily change the lurking point.
As a result, we changed to a hiding place later, which happened to be where shepherds were grazing.
As long as you do enough preliminary preparations, send a drone or satellite to take a photo above the predetermined lurking point before taking action.
Then find an image analyst to conduct big data comparison and analysis on the pictures.
This tragedy could probably have been avoided.
Long Zhan can see clearly the problems and loopholes that arise in various actions with the help of God's Eye, and he also knows how to avoid them.
But only he knew it, and he had no way of telling it.
If he really wants to tell it, either no one will believe it and will only think that Long Zhan is crazy, or they will think that there is something wrong with Long Zhan, and in turn, they will check him out first.
After all, no matter how outstanding Long Zhan is, he is only a grassroots soldier and does not have the highest decision-making power.
In addition to thinking about the crisis response plan in advance, the only preparation work Long Zhan can do is to be as fully prepared as possible before taking action.
In the original plot, things like plastic umbrella helmets could never happen to me.
Armor, equipment, weapons, communications...
Bring as much as you can with everything that can be used in battle, and be as safe as you can, to the best of your ability.
But how to get these equipment and equipment is a big problem.
Long Zhan, who came out of the SEAL Team, is very clear that the SEAL Team is not as rich as DG, and it is just a matter of saying what equipment they want.
I remember when he wanted a pair of wide-angle telescopes, he had to pay for them himself.
You can imagine how hard it is!

PS:
I received a notice from the editor today and it is expected to be available on Friday, November 5th.
There will be a round of updates after it is put on the shelves.
Brothers who have monthly tickets, please support me, thank you.
At the same time, I hope that all the big guys can come and support at least one of the first decisions.
The first subscription is related to the future of a book, just like grading a book. If the first subscription has a good collection and subscription ratio, it will have good resources. If the first subscription is not good, it will be classified as "junk".
It’s up to you brothers whether you can get enough recommended resources to support Xiaobing’s writing.
In this military channel, which is full of swords, Xiaobing resists the pressure and the temptation to just write about swords, and there is no homogeneous writing about swords.
It is about writing such a brand-new subject, and it is also Qidian’s only professional SEAL novel at present.
It is really, really difficult to give military readers a different reading experience.
How far this book can go depends on you. Don’t forget to subscribe when the time comes.
If you have a monthly ticket, please support it.
Thank you in advance, Xiaobing!
