Ballistic Silence of Special Years

Chapter 898 Bloody Twilight

The time of that day seemed to be infinitely magnified several times.

Li Zheng didn't know how many times he looked at his watch. Sometimes he even had to shake that military watch, and he had never had a suspicion—is this watch broken?

Yes.

Time seems to pass too slowly too slowly.

Usually, I always feel that there is not enough time, and time goes by too fast.

But this time, Li Zheng felt that time had stopped.

Every minute and every second is suffering.

In the sea area where the ship is docked, the sea breeze seems to be subdued, and the air is stuffy and hot, as if frozen by the tense breath. Only occasionally a few heartless seagulls fly over, stop on the deck, and hoarsely scream a few times. With a sound, he flapped his wings a few times, and flew away again.

17:20pm.

In the command center of the No. 2 ship, the non-commissioned officer of the communication team suddenly turned his head: "Report to the team leader, the commander is looking for it!"

Commander looking for?

The tactical team leader of No. 2 ship almost rushed to the radio station and picked up the microphone.

"I'm Han Lin, the shift leader of No. 2 ship, please tell me, Commander."

"Han Lin, the formalities for our formation to enter the port have been approved, and we can dock now. At present, the first batch of 124 evacuees are waiting on the dock. Your ship will enter the port immediately at maximum speed, and cooperate with the dock staff and the military. Immediately carry out the evacuation mission!"

"Yes! Commander!"

The team leader of No. 2 ship was so excited that he almost jumped up.

After waiting for a full ten hours, the long-awaited news finally arrived.

The previous haze was swept away, and the shift leader almost dropped the microphone and gave the departure order immediately.

"Also, I have a request."

"Commander, please speak."

"My request is only one word - fast! Everything must be fast! Hurry up, pick up and go! The situation in country Y is very serious. It is said that the armed forces of HS have reached the vicinity of the port area. After we entered, everything was strictly implemented according to the established plan. , there can be no delays, it must be—I mean must! The task must be completed satisfactorily!"

"I assure the motherland that the task of evacuating overseas Chinese will be successfully completed!"

The shift leader only put down the microphone this time, and said to the captain: "Old Chen, set off for Hudaydah port immediately! The procedures have been completed and the order has been approved!"

"it is good!"

The captain had been waiting for this sentence for a long time, and he quickly picked up the microphone.

"Please pay attention to all departments on the ship. Now we will set off for Hudaydah Port. The heads of all departments must strictly abide by the plan to ensure that no mistakes are made within the scope of their responsibility. The special warfare unit enters the starting position and immediately establishes a security line after arriving at the port. .”

After all, he gave an order: "Let's go!"

No. 2 ship let out a long sound, and the billowing waves rolled up at the tail of the ship. This modern frigate headed towards the target port at the fastest speed.

The boat moved.

In the cabin, every commando was excited.

Everyone couldn't wait to dock, and under Xiao Jun's command, they all gathered on the deck.

In the plan, the No. 2 ship was the first to dock and the first to perform the evacuation mission, so Xiao Jun came from the No. 1 ship to the No. 2 ship and personally directed the security arrangements after the docking.

In fact, the reason why the No. 2 ship was arranged is because the information sent back by the DSG personnel on the shore showed that the list of the first batch of evacuated compatriots was only 124.

In terms of capacity, the No. 2 ship with the smallest displacement is most suitable for the first batch of evacuation tasks.

Ship No. 1 is a destroyer with a relatively large displacement. It is no problem for them to temporarily load more than 200 people.

Ship No. 3 is a comprehensive supply ship with the largest displacement, but the defense capability of the supply ship is mediocre. Therefore, operating together with Ship No. 1, they will carry out a larger number of evacuation missions in the future.

The whole plan is very scientific, and it was thought up by everyone's brainstorming. As for whether there are loopholes, it can only be determined after seeing the actual situation there.

Plans are dead, people are alive.

There is no essential difference between evacuation of overseas Chinese and combat. Tactical evacuation is also a type of tactics. As the saying goes, soldiers are impermanent. How to make temporary deployments in response to emergencies will test the military quality and capabilities of formation commanders.

On the deck, Xiao Jun was urging everyone to do the last equipment check.

Everyone is fully loaded.

Except for not carrying a tactical rucksack, all others are upper body.

The clothes were changed into black anti-terrorism tactical uniforms, because it had already begun to fall into the night. Although the sun here was late and the light was still sufficient, everyone was still required to carry night vision equipment.

Other than that is ammunition.

Various ammunition.

Bullets, shock bombs, grenades, smoke bombs...

Compared with the other team members who disembarked and were in charge of security, Li Zheng and Fatty Wei looked a little lonely.

One of them is the sniper team and the other is the machine gun team.

One of them was on the roof of the pilot building, and the other was on the edge of the deck.

In the entire No. 2 ship squadron, only the two of them stayed on the ship.

It's a bit of a pity that I couldn't go ashore.

But being able to participate is enough to be proud of.

"Everyone checks their own things. The night vision equipment needs to be checked for power. Although I estimate that the first batch of compatriots will withdraw soon, they should be prepared. Experience tells us that we should not take it lightly. Mogadishu back then..."

Xiao Jun mentioned the battle of the Bald Eagle Special Forces in Mogadishu as a wake-up call.

That's right.

The first-class special forces such as Rangers, Deltas, and Seals participated in that operation, and they were considered elites.

Because of this, many people underestimated the local militia organization before departure. Some of the rangers even chose to give up bulletproof plates in order to reduce their own weight, and some carried very little ammunition, which was not enough to support long-term firefights. The strange thing is that there are some commandos who think they will go back when they go, it won't take long, and it won't be night, so they don't even carry night vision equipment.

result?

The result has been written into the history of war, and the price paid is life.

Amid the roar of warship engines, the waves in the Gulf of Aden were split like tofu.

The assembly preparations on the deck have been disbanded, and the disembarked Xiaolong team members have been deployed near the gangway. Once they land, they will be the first to go down to establish a defense line and a warning zone.

The team of Li Zheng and Fatty Wei has already arrived at their predetermined location.

Li Zheng found a deck on the pilot building, got down on it, and set up his high-precision spy.

Hou Jun on the side was adjusting his observation hand equipment, setting up the tripod, and putting the observation mirror on it.

For long-term observation, he must use a tripod.

The tripod is a good thing. It can’t be used in the field when there are no conditions. If there is a condition, it’s a good thing to watch your hands. At least your hands won’t suffer too much.

After debugging, the two sat down, looking at the direction of the port in front of the ship, took out the water bottle and began to replenish a little water.

"Don't drink too much, don't pee and find the toilet later."

Hou Jun made fun of Li Zheng.

Li Zheng said with a smile: "Don't worry, the old squad leader. I'm a proven sniper. At worst, I'll pee in my pants. I promise I won't leave halfway."

The two were talking and laughing, and the warship was getting closer and closer to the port.

When the outline of the port appeared in the line of sight of Li Zheng and Hou Jun, they picked up their scopes and observation mirrors at the same time, and looked in the general direction.

It doesn't matter at first glance, when the scene of the port came into view, both of them were startled.

Li Zheng asked Hou Jun: "Old squad leader, have you seen it?"

"I see. You mean that RPG?" Hou Jun never took his eyes off the sight glass.

Just now, the two of them saw a rocket rising from the west side near the port. They probably missed the target and missed the target they wanted to attack, so they flew into the air and flew to an altitude of tens of meters.

Before night fell, when the sun was setting to the west, seeing such a scene under the blood-colored clouds everywhere, it was as magical as it could be. The aura that belonged to the battlefield immediately came to his face, and Li Zheng's mind immediately emerged. A scene that has been involved in combat.

The blood belonging to the warrior began to run wildly in the blood vessels.

It seems that the vicinity of the port is really unsafe.

This evacuation mission is full of dangers.

　If you have to watch it quickly, I want to buy a lottery ticket, and I don't know when I will win the prize.
