Obviously, the early intelligence collection and analysis looked full of loopholes in front of professional special operations team members.
For such an obvious problem, no one in the military of country W noticed it.
As to why this is so, no one knows.
Perhaps it was due to the lack of professional intelligence analysis experts, or perhaps Diesel was eager to take credit for his performance.
After the two analyzed it in the row room, a very difficult question loomed before them - now that they knew there were such big loopholes, should they go to the headquarters to inform Diesel of the situation?
Originally, in terms of their identities, it was better to do less than to do more, but since it was said to be tactical guidance, Tong Zhi and Li Zheng agreed after discussion that it was necessary to inform Diesel of the facts.
It doesn't matter what Diesel thinks. What matters is that the company he brought out now is in danger under such unknown circumstances.
Professional intelligence analysis is very important to special operations.
The reason for the failure of almost all special operations operations is due to insufficient intelligence and analysis, or emergencies other than intelligence, resulting in the final failure.
"Chief."
Tong Zhi and Li Zheng walked into Lian Zhi and wanted to inform Diesel of the situation.
But Diesel is busy at the moment.
He was reporting to his superiors on his cell phone.
Tong Zhi discovered that Diesel had a habit of always calling his superiors for no matter how small or trivial it was, or even for small details that could not affect his actions.
To say it sounds good is called caution, but to say it sounds bad is called neurosis.
Any special operations commander is a very capable person, and many times he will even prevent his superiors from making unreasonable decisions.
As the old saying goes, if you are out in the field, all military orders will be disobeyed.
The "disobedience" here does not mean deliberately disobeying orders and being domineering. It means that the superior is not on the front line. Often the superior is not familiar with the specific situation and environment on the front line. In many cases, one cannot afford to be stubborn and must be flexible and make bold decisions.
This is the commander's sense of responsibility, not disobedience.
The two of them waited for five minutes. Diesel reported the situation of the special operations company on the phone - in fact, there was nothing wrong. It had only been less than forty minutes since the departure, and the convoy was still on the road. It would take about three hours to arrive. arrive.
After arguing with his superiors, Diesel's call finally ended.
"Captain Tong, what's the problem?"
Tong Zhi got straight to the point: "Commander, your intelligence is very problematic, and this operation may be very dangerous."
"What?" Diesel was a little confused. He suddenly looked a little nervous: "What's wrong with the intelligence? Danger? What danger?"
Tong Zhi stopped talking nonsense to him, stepped forward, spread out the map, and expressed his speculations and analysis just like he had explained to Li Zheng before.
Finally, he concluded: "Commander, I suggest you be cautious. It is best to send a helicopter to the incident site to conduct reconnaissance."
A small country like Country W does not have satellites, but it still has helicopters. Although it is an old Soviet-made Mi-17 helicopter, it is just usable.
"this……"
Diesel looked embarrassed.
"Actually, we have also thought about this problem, but as you can see, it is raining heavily outside now. This kind of weather is too bad. The Air Force may not be willing to send helicopters. I also know that they do not have the ability to operate in this kind of weather. Flying can never be forced on others.”
Tong Zhi was stunned.
It seems that I really overestimated the air force here.
They do not have the ability to fly around the clock.
"So... the border police station should be not far from there, right?" Tong Zhi could only do the next best thing: "Before my company arrives, can you send a border police unit over to see what's going on? Isn’t it safer than sending a company in hastily?”
Diesel said: "This matter... is also difficult to handle..."
He touched his chin.
Then he continued: "You know, two border policemen have died before, and they are all frightened now. I heard that the poachers hired some powerful characters this time, and they have very powerful firepower."
Tong Zhi sneered in his heart.
Is this an excuse?
What a lame excuse.
What's the weather like? What's so scary...
Who did the lake get?
He finally understood.
Diesel is just taking credit.
Being the first to arrive at the scene of the accident, the first to engage in a firefight, and then winning is a great achievement. If the border police are allowed to go there, if any important information is discovered, in the future, the merits will be judged and rewarded. Diesel will be in the credit book. One thing is missing.
Tong Zhi's heart suddenly ignited with anger.
He had no feelings for Diesel before, but this time he despised the chief of staff.
He doesn't care about the safety of his subordinates. Whoever has such a leader will be unlucky.
"alright!"
Diesel said to Tong Zhi in a comforting tone: "I know Captain Tong you have good intentions, but don't you have confidence in the soldiers you train? In the past two months, I have read your reports and inspected you I think the training is very good, the level is quite high, not inferior to the anti-terrorist unit. I believe in you, and I believe in Sandy. You guys sit here for a while, and there will be good news soon."
After saying that, he was no longer interested in talking to Tong Zhi, and turned around to contact Sandy to inquire about the situation.
Tong Zhi and Li Zheng exchanged glances, and a cold feeling filled their hearts.
…
It rained heavily.
Sandy felt like someone was pouring water from a bucket onto the roof of the car.
Although the car had its lights on, it was blocked by the rain before it could reach more than twenty meters, making it impossible to see clearly.
The most important thing is the road.
This year's rainy season came hard, and I have never seen such heavy rain. During the four-hour drive, we encountered two landslides, so we had to take a detour.
The journey that was originally scheduled to take three hours took a full four hours.
He took out the handheld GPS. The signal was a little unstable and the picture on the screen was a little stuck. It was obvious that the reception was not smooth.
Suddenly, the vehicle lurched violently, its front wheels ran into a puddle, and the vehicle body sank suddenly to the right.
Sandy bumped into the front dashboard without any precautions, and stars suddenly appeared in his eyes.
I touched it with my hand and found a swelling on my forehead.
"You're driving without looking at the road!?"
he yelled at the driver.
The driver stepped on the accelerator, and the car was like a weak old cow. It grunted a few times, moved a little, and then slid back.
After several repetitions, Sandy lost patience.
He checked the GPS and saw that there were still three kilometers to reach Wadi Village, the map of the first incident.
It seems that he said to the driver: "You wait here, I will leave a row and a row of cars to take you. I will go to the Tuwadi village ahead to see first."
After saying that, he opened the door and got out, walked to the second car, knocked on the door, and shouted to Moody, the platoon leader in the passenger seat.
"Moody, you lead the first platoon here and stay here. Use the rope to pull my car out. I'll take the second platoon's car and go to Tuvadi Village first to have a look. Keep in touch!"
After saying that, he walked to a truck in the back, opened the door and got in the truck.
Before Moody could answer, Sandy had left.
He jumped out of the car and watched the trucks in the second and third rows moving forward, slowly disappearing into the night and rain.
