After nightfall, a military airport in Damascus was extremely busy.
In order to drop 1,000 Wanlongdian soldiers on Hamid's base, all the few transport planes in Syria were dispatched. In addition, two cargo planes were urgently called in from civil aviation.
A total of six planes were responsible for tonight's flight mission, and Chen Zhonglei also selected the strongest 1,000 elites from the more than 8,000 Wanlongdian soldiers, and asked them to be fully armed and ready for the airborne in the early morning.
In order to kill the enemy with one blow, Chen Zhonglei allocated all the high-end equipment to these thousand people.
This includes a complete set of the best individual weapons for each person, a best bulletproof vest, a lightweight bulletproof helmet, a set of head-mounted night vision equipment, and multiple thermal imaging cameras.
This kind of high-end standard equipment is expensive, and there are very few purchase channels. Even the Wanlongdian cannot afford one set per capita.
Chen Zhonglei felt that since it was a nighttime raid, night vision equipment was simply a magic weapon. At night when the naked eye could see less than five meters away, soldiers with night vision equipment were almost as if they were on the go, and had a great advantage.
And our own soldiers have very powerful protective equipment. When fighting hand-to-hand, even if the enemy's firepower is covered, our soldiers can also guarantee a high probability that they will not be shot, which can further increase the advantage.
In addition, Chen Zhonglei also specially equipped these thousand soldiers with a very cruel weapon, incendiary grenades.
This kind of incendiary grenade is the standard equipment of the US army. It is similar to the principle of napalm bombs, but it is made into the shape of a grenade, which is convenient for individual soldiers to use.
The incendiary grenade uses thermite reaction, and after the explosion, it will generate a high temperature of up to 3,000 degrees, which can even melt steel.
If two of them were thrown into an almost completely enclosed concealed fortification, it would be enough to burn the soldiers hiding in it to coke.
It doesn't matter if the internal space of the concealed fortification is large. When this kind of incendiary bomb is fully burned, it can exhaust the internal oxygen, and the people inside will suffocate even if they can't be burned to death.
In Chen Zhonglei's opinion, it is the most appropriate to use this kind of weapon to attack Hamid's hidden fortifications.
Dominant in weapons, vision, defense, and fighting power, Chen Zhonglei believes that his thousand elites will definitely cause great damage to the opponent.
And just in the barracks next to the airport, 5,000 soldiers of the government army are also undergoing final assembly.
This is also Chen Zhonglei's third set of insurance. If the soldiers of Wanlongdian are fighting fiercely after they are airborne, thousands of government soldiers on the periphery will immediately charge and annihilate the enemy inside and outside.
And these 5,000 soldiers no longer used the daytime combat plan. They no longer carried towed artillery and a large number of shells, but directly used nearly a hundred vehicles of various types to quickly march towards Hamid's base. In a few hours, you will be able to reach the foot of the mountain at Hamid's base.
Just when the 1,000 soldiers in the Wanlong Temple were still checking their equipment, these 5,000 soldiers had already set off. Their movement speed was not as fast as that of an airplane, so they had to set off one step earlier.
As for the soldiers of the Wanlong Temple, they will board the plane at one o'clock in the morning, and then take off one after another within half an hour, heading to the sky over Hamid's base.
When the soldiers were inspecting their equipment, Chen Zhonglei was still explaining the tactics to them, asking them to give full play to and use their various advantages and do their best to ensure the smooth completion of the task.
At one o'clock in the morning, soldiers carrying parachute bags began to board the plane in an orderly manner.
Chen Zhonglei also personally boarded one of the military transport planes.
Although he will not personally lead the team to parachute, he will be on this military transport plane, through the communication equipment on the plane, to collect the battle situation on the battlefield in real time, so that when the soldiers need him, he will provide tactical command at the first time.
Afterwards, the planes took off one after another, divided into two echelons in the air, and headed towards Hamid's base one after the other.
At the same time, 5,000 government soldiers were less than 40 kilometers away from Hamid's position.
Due to the mobility of all staff, they are expected to arrive at the scheduled location in 40 minutes.
And Hamid's base is in full swing.
More than 140 blasting points have been pre-buried in advance, controlled by 14 blasters and engineers.
The blaster in front of each of them has already marked the position and number of the blast point, and at the same time they are holding a walkie-talkie using a dedicated channel in their hands.
Once the enemy appears, once the soldier in charge of the investigation determines the enemy's position, he will be notified of the explosive point that needs to be detonated through this walkie-talkie channel.
At that time, the person in charge of blasting??If you find that the explosion point to be exploded is within your control range, you will immediately detonate the designated explosion point at the first time.
In this way, even if more than 10 people control more than 100 explosive points, there will be no misoperation.
At the same time, Hamid's scouts are also concentrating on every way into the mountain, and the drones are always in the air. Although the observation capabilities of the drones are greatly reduced at night, if the opponent is a large force marching mobile, it will There must be lights, and although the lights are difficult to find in the dark mountains, the perspective of the drone can be seen at a glance, so it is easier to find the enemy at night.
Sitting in the cockpit of the plane, Chen Zhonglei was observing the ground outside the window.
The mountains in Syria are very remote and closed. At night, there are only sporadic light spots in the vast hilly areas. Most of these are villages in the mountains, and some belong to small-scale opposition groups.
The two pilots of the plane were both soldiers of the Dragon Temple. Because he was worried that the pilots of the Syrian Air Force had insufficient flying experience, Chen Zhonglei replaced them all with his own people.
At this time, the captain said: "Commander, we will arrive at the parachute position in 20 minutes."
Chen Zhonglei looked out the window and said thoughtfully: "This place is really backward. It is said that many villages in hilly areas have not been connected to electricity yet."
"Yes." The captain nodded and said, "Most of the light spots we can observe from above are torches burning in villages, but those who can use electricity are basically rebels, and only they can use them." Generator."
Chen Zhonglei smacked his lips and said, "I really don't understand why so many brothers Paoze can be sacrificed with such a backward weapon There is a strong sense of the unknown in my heart, which makes me a little uneasy."
The captain hurriedly said: "Commander, you don't have to worry too much. We will lose the battle during the day. The main reason is that we underestimated the enemy. In addition, the enemy's fortifications are there, and we really don't have the advantage."
"But they will definitely not be able to cope with the surprise attack at night!"
"Not to mention anything else, I'm afraid they can't afford the night vision equipment alone. Even if they have it, there are probably only a few sets."
"Once a thousand of us press up, their night vision equipment will be useless at all. No matter how many soldiers there are, most of them will look like blind men. They will definitely not be able to withstand our attack."
Chen Zhonglei nodded slightly: "I hope we can annihilate them in one fell swoop!!"
Ten minutes later, the warning light in the cabin came on.
The hatch at the tail of the plane slowly opened, and the soldiers knew very well that this was a signal to prepare for parachuting, so they got up one after another and checked each other's parachute bags.
Twenty minutes later, when the planes arrived at the parachuting position one after another, batches of soldiers descended from the sky, raining down on Hamid's position.
Before the first paratrooper landed, Hamid was reminded by the scouts that they had found the paratroopers who parachuted through the night market and thermal imaging equipment.
So, everyone cheered up and waited for this group of people to throw themselves into the net again! (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
