Chapter 663 Leapfrog Raid

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    On the third day after Lin Rui reunited with his teammates, he received a notice and attended a meeting with Black Panther Gulei and others.

    The meeting was organized by Long Zhengwu.  In a temporarily arranged conference room, Long Zhengwu looked at them and said solemnly, "Today's meeting has only one purpose, to formulate tactics for the mission of rescuing Zhao Jianfei. Vitak, please tell me about the current situation."

    Vitak nodded, "Now we have successfully deceived the people of Morning Star Company, making them think that we will launch an attack on Goat Rock in the Marka area to rescue Zhao Jianfei. But in fact, my people have obtained the exact information  , Zhao Jianfei is being held in this place." His finger pointed to the projection screen behind him.  "A concentration camp on the outskirts of Mogadishu. The place is known to locals as Camp Chaos."

    "Do we have any specific information about this location, or what should we pay attention to?" Jiang An frowned.

    "No, because this is a very critical time. We cannot send people to take risks to explore the concentration camp, because once exposed, it will lead to the other party's suspicion. It is more likely to cause all our previous arrangements to fail and lose everything." Vitak  said in a deep voice.

    "That is to say, we don't know much about this concentration camp. At least we have very little information." Lin Rui pondered.

    "Yes. At nine o'clock last night, I got the call from the fake spy on the other side. He was testing me, trying to insinuate to me when I would take action. What I told him at the time was that we were preparing for a  A large-scale raid is planned to rescue Zhao Jianfei through armed rescue," Vitak said.

    "Then what was his reaction?" Long Zhengwu pondered.

    "He didn't express it, but I could see that he had doubts. Because this was different from what he imagined. He originally thought that we would take covert actions and conduct sneak attacks as a small team. But he never considered that we would use a frontal attack.  The way, it can be said that my answer disrupted their initial deployment. So while he was a little scared, he also had some doubts."

    Shogan nodded and said, "He must be suspicious, because the first priority of rescue missions is to ensure the safety of the hostages, so they are usually covert operations and rarely carry out strike-style raids."

    "So we have to dispel his doubts and make him believe that our target is exactly at Goat Rock. In this way, they will send more troops and strengthen control at Goat Rock. In order to achieve our goal of attacking in the east and attacking in the west, on the surface  We are preparing to storm Goat Rock, but in fact we are raiding Chaos Camp." Vitak pointed at the location on the map.  "I want them to believe that we are planning a no-nonsense attack."

    "But how can we make them believe it?" Lincoln, the leader of Group B, frowned.

    "This is the purpose of our meeting today. We are going to lay out a tactic that will make our preparations for a feint attack look very real, and at the same time, we can complete the attack on the real target in the shortest possible time." Long Zhengwu looked at them and said.  , ¡°What do you think about this?¡±

    "If we want to appear real, we must be observed by them operating in the Marka area. Only with a large number of our combat personnel operating around Marka can it appear that we are indeed preparing to attack Goat Rock." Lin Rui replied.  "One thing that is good about this operation is that the distance between Marka and Mogadishu is only 70 kilometers."

    "You mean that we set up a temporary camp in Marka and pretended to storm Goat Rock, but in fact we marched 70 kilometers to attack the chaos camp near Mogadishu." Long Zhengwu frowned.

    "Yes. Morning Star Company and the warlords in southern Somalia currently control this area. So they have many eyes. Once we enter this place, we will be noticed immediately. So if we enter the Mogadishu area directly, they will  Immediately realize our true intentions. This will be a great threat to us.

    So the best way is for us to enter the Marka area, but be farther away from the Goat Rock concentration camp.  This makes it clear that our goal is Goat Rock, and it is a little further away, which is also a common covert attack method.  Lin Rui explained.

    Jiang An nodded, "I think Lin Rui's plan is feasible, but it will be difficult to implement. Judging from the data, our O2 team plus the personnel of the African branch, the number of people we will participate in this combat mission will be  There are more than 300 people. It is still difficult for these 300 people to quickly complete the deployment and enter the combat area 70 kilometers away. Because this will be a leap-frog raid."

    The leapfrog operation is one of the typical tactics of the US military on the Vietnam battlefield.  It means transportation by air, usually using helicopters uh-60a or ch-47d to quickly move troops from one place to the target location.  For offensive operations, this position is generally located atbehind enemy lines or in strategic locations not controlled by friendly forces.  Isolated and deep troops can carry heavy weapons and receive sufficient air support. Under ideal circumstances, they can still advance, attack, retreat and defend.

    On the Vietnam battlefield, the U.S. military¡¯s first leapfrog distance was about 40-50km.  With the proficiency of tactics, the 101st Assault Division once carried heavy weapons such as anti-tank guns and anti-tank missiles to a depth of 800 kilometers four times in a row.

    With modern equipment technology, this leap-frog tactic has developed quite maturely.  Among these mercenaries, Jason was once a member of the Green Berets, and they were the Army's special forces who were the first to use this type of tactics.  Naturally, he is no stranger to these.  Lincoln's Group B is almost entirely veterans of the Marine Corps' direct reconnaissance company. This tactic is also a must-have for them to intervene in combat areas early.  So there is a very clear understanding of the pros and cons of these tactics.

    So Lincoln frowned and said, "Theoretically, this is the most ideal way. But it is quite difficult to operate in practice. We need a certain number of transport helicopters, and it is best to have air superiority. In addition, can this achieve coordination for the overall command?  Consistency is also a big test.¡±

    Jason thought for a while and said, "The biggest problem is how we can hide it from the people of Morningstar Company. If we want to attack Goat Rock and temporarily stationed in Marka, we shouldn't need to do this at least five to six times."  A transport helicopter, right? Don¡¯t say that we don¡¯t have such a large number of transport helicopters. Even if we do, it¡¯s easy for a discerning person to see the problem.

    It's like a person is standing in front of you, and you can kill him with a pistol, but you insist on pulling a cannon over, measuring and aiming, even a fool knows that what you want to hit is actually someone else.  Target.  "

    "That's true. Once we enter the Marka area, we are entering the other party's territory. Everything is under the eyes of others. If our intentions are too obvious, we will be seen through soon." Lin Rui frowned.
