Blood and Fire - Syria 12

Throw yourself away in the night

There was no courage to look for the morning light

It was a ray of light

Captivated in my footsteps

No more displacement

(River Crossing)

Both east and west of the river. Neither side can completely blockade the Euphrates River, which is Syria. It was not as tightly sealed as the Soviet-German battlefield of that year, and there were too many loopholes to cross the river. It's just on some parts where it's easy to cross the river. Garrisons were on both sides

Early morning. Confirm the plan of action for the evening before the break, interspersed from the Syrian military defense area to the river. A three-dimensional geographic model formed from previous drone and satellite images confirmed that the crossing site was a steep breach. There are no garrisons around the perimeter, which makes it convenient to cross the river in hiding

Dig bunkers during the day on a gentle slope facing the river. It is three kilometers away from the river, and the situation on both sides of the river can be clearly seen with a telescope

Low shrubs from the cover will cover up the traces. Not exposed

There will also be patrols. Two times in the morning and three times in the afternoon, Wang Simu and Xu Tong noticed that the patrol always took two routes when they were on duty. In other places, even if there is a short road, it is judged that there is a minefield by the river

Start acting after dark. Because there are no villages and garrisons nearby, there is no need to wait until midnight to operate

Lu Xiao and Qin Cong turned on the detection instrument. Mines were found on the road ahead and it was a complex minefield. Various mines are superimposed across the river, and it takes a great deal of patience to get through

There are no shortcuts. It must be stable, and all six people will clear mines. Lu Xiao adjusted the night vision into a comprehensive mode. Although it costs electricity. But you can see everything in the minefield, including that filament

During the day with small solar panels with sunlight to supplement electricity, at night electronic equipment costing mode as far as possible not to turn on, even if it is necessary to turn on as much as possible for one or two people to use. In this case. Lu Xiao and Qin Cong adjusted the night vision into a comprehensive mode

Electronic mines were found in two. The level is not high, and the Russian army did not use advanced electronic mines in this direction. Tartus. Latakia. The Khmemin base requires a large number of new mines, which are not the main battlefield now

It's all old-fashioned mines. Fortunately, the density is not so high, the minefield on the border between the Heavenly Dynasty and Vietnam. That's the highest density of landmines in the world. The most complex minefields of vintage mines, a square meter is a dozen bottoms. More than forty when there are more. Even if you can manually clear mines, you can't have any penetration capability

The situation is different here. Mines often need to be recovered, and in the case of enemy-laid mined areas, engineer demining operations are required. General Hradin, commander of the Syrian Army's Deir Ezzor, was killed by stepping on a mine

Cross the minefield at 10:40 pm to reach the river. The current here is relatively rapid, and there are mountains on both sides of the shore. No sandy beaches and gentle slopes

This terrain allows both sides to reduce defenses. After all the Euphrates River is too long. None of them had enough troops to fill the confrontation line

Turn off night vision. Electronic equipment even if not afraid of water should be put into a waterproof bag for safekeeping. The ground here is more than two meters above the surface of the water. First, a rope was fixed to the ground, and Lu Xiao went down the rope into the water. There are no obstacles such as barbed wire in this water

Everyone else has been launched. Finally, Wang Simu put away the rope and jumped into the water, and the whole team carried out armed crossing. Swim diagonally along the current towards the opposite side. Because the backpack is waterproof, it still has floating power despite the weight

Six people connected together. The buoyancy is sufficient, and the location of the river crossing is screened out by the satellite reconnaissance of the drone. Various factors were taken into account by the Tias side

Swim diagonally to the east coast. The cliff shores here are higher. Foot five meters and hit it with a hook to confirm the firmness. Climb along the rope to the east bank

Lu Xiao still nodded his head to the shore, and immediately took out the detection instrument from the waterproof bag and opened it to confirm that there were no mines around. Put on the night vision goggles again and start the integrated mode alert. Cover the people below to come up

Next after sorting out the gear. Go east along a small ridge that will not take the ditch. Minefields appear in the trenches. Lu Xiao and Qin Cong moved forward carefully in front. There is a lot of weed vegetation in the ditch. The vegetation on the ridge is sparse due to soil, and the flat-soled sticker on the shoe cover will minimize the traces

Approach the central point of the ridge. There is a prompt in the detection instrument that there are electronic mines, which can only be interfered with and cannot be cleared. Once the thunder is removed, it means that a master has come in, which is equivalent to exposing the target

Qin Cong took the people first. After passing through the minefield again, Lu Xiao dragged to the end. After passing this area began to move along the gully, according to satellite drone reconnaissance. The vegetation of this gully is lush. There are no strongholds of armed men in front

This area was originally the control area of the black hat. The black hat expanded from Iraq to here in September 2015 as Russia watched the Syrian government forces fall. Troops were sent to Syria to help the Syrian army stabilize the situation, and it counterattacked until the Euphrates River. It was not until the M army prevented the Russian-Syrian coalition from crossing the river that a stalemate was formed

Given the bad deeds of the black hat in Iraq and Syria are too many. Internationally belonging to terrorist gangs, the M army let the black hat change clothes. As a result the black hat threw the black turban away. Changed into a camouflage uniform and became a rebel. Protected by the M Army

In this area. Black Hat and Kurdish armed forces also often clash over turf, after all, black hats have previously beaten The Kurdish forces in northern Iraq and fled

Now here is the Black Hat Control Zone. How many of them guns have been uncertain, according to information provided by the Russian-Syrian coalition forces. There are more than 5,000 black hat armed people in the Hedong region. And in the southeast there are more than 20,000 Kurdish armed forces. However, most of them are militia organizations and local self-defense organizations, and not many have really formed combat effectiveness

The gully has been reconnoitred with high-altitude drones and satellites before, and there is no stronghold for militants. As a result, we found a camp when we went to the mountain pass. More than thirty militants were stationed inside. It can be seen that this camp is newly built. I also just finished building the camp here

Yu Jianjun decided to take a detour on both sides of the hill. Since it is a newly built stronghold, the surrounding earth, stone and wood are used, and the traces of walking are still there, and the chaos can be detoured

Nor can there be minefields. They didn't even know the surrounding terrain themselves. It is impossible to lay mines in the periphery, so that they can blow themselves up

~~~~

(Modification Plan)

Go around this camp and head forward until the wee hours of the morning to prepare for a break. Because behind enemy lines. Still need to dig a bunker, relying on a sparse bush to dig a single soldier bunker to rest

Yu Jian used a military telescope to watch the action off the horizon. It is close to the river and lush vegetation. Further on, we will take the right route into the desert Gobi region, where the living conditions are the same as in Palmyra

Water is needed in the desert Gobi. And the water source is controlled by the militants in the Hedong area. The Black Hats are entrenched in the Gobi Desert and near the Habul River

The Kurds controlled the aquatic boundaries southeast of the Habul River and competed with the Black Hats for territory in the hilly area west of the Habul River

Black Hat wants to capture the Habul River Valley. Re-expanding their power, the Kurds are desperately protecting their control areas

Most of the BOMBing of black hats by the US army occurred in the area where the two sides exchanged fire

It's like the M-Army is a beast trainer. Keep the black hats firmly confined in their cages. Want to go out. The way out is there for the Hexi government army. It could also expand northeastward, which was also the territory of government forces

Allow black hats to attack government forces. Black hats are not allowed to go further southeast, which connects to the Iraqi border. Don't let the black hats flow back to Iraq

Water is the most important. You can't make things bigger until the action is successful. It is even more important not to expose the traces in advance

Night action. A pit was dug by a stream to seep water, and the water was disinfected and stored with powder, and after boiling in the early morning, each person was given three pots of water. This is the amount of water used before reaching the target, and the water is controlled by thin film steam, but the amount of water is too small

After obtaining the water source begin to enter the Gobi region. Still resting during the day and acting at night with gobi temperatures of more than forty degrees during the day. At ten degrees at night, it is almost like the surface of the moon. It's not just temperature like the moon. Even the terrain is quite similar, and there is no one at all when you go out in the middle of the night

During the day when resting. It is enough to use binoculars to look around, and there are militants who are also riding in vehicles such as pickup trucks. Walk on two legs here. The militants don't have the willpower

Needless to say otherwise. It's the high temperature of more than forty degrees during the day. Coupled with the scorching sun exposure, the weak physique can not stand for a few days. No need to fight. You can die of illness yourself

Tias and Tartus send goal updates every day during the day. In the surrounding area, drone reconnaissance is no longer carried out, but satellite reconnaissance is used to prevent the M army from discovering the law

The location of the target on the map is the town of Mocardi. You say it's a town, it's a little small. The population is more than five thousand. The core is two underground river wells, and there is no village without wells in the Gobi Desert

Long-term analysis based on satellite imagery. There are more than four hundred black-hated militants here who have been entrenched here for more than a year. It covers a radius of about fifty kilometers and often attacks Kurdish forces in the southeast

Another night of marching. Arrive five kilometers west of the town of Mokadi and here is a slice of the Gobi. It is the last hidden location on the west side of the south side of the town of Mokadi. The town is surrounded by an open area. The field of view and shooting range are very clear

Need to rest here during the day. Conduct infiltration operations after dark and rest in the morning. At six o'clock in the afternoon, the pre-war mobilization began

Yu Jianjun "based on satellite imagery. The part of the militant we are going to find is near this well near the west side, specifically in this three-story building, and the number is twenty-two

While carrying out the task. Also replenish the water source, bring as much as one or two pots of water as possible."

Wang Simu "Our time from action to withdrawal was very short. And it is to take into account the rest time of the other party and start the action at one o'clock in the middle of the night. It takes an hour to do so, and it gives us three hours to sneak around. We need to compress the action time again. This way the distance of withdrawal will be farther away."

Qin Cong", "Is there a list of specific people and photos?" ”

Yu Jianjun "has. But only one set was brought, and most of the militants here were dressed up and we raided this building. It's about killing everybody."

Lu Xiao "solve with a knife. It is best to infiltrate in the middle of the night so that there is time to confirm the target. Five hours in the second half of the night was enough for us to withdraw farther away."

Yu Jianjun "If not shooting better. But it's too difficult."

Wang Simu "blew up part of their vehicle. Snatching two vehicles for easy evacuation use"

Yu Jianjun "then make changes to the original plan. At nine o'clock it begins to infiltrate, and the opposite is done."

Lu Xiao "began to act in the first half of the night. The other party will be less vigilant."

After Yu Jianjun reported the plan, he arranged the plan and mission according to the satellite map, and Lu Xiao was still a sharp soldier. With Qin Cong's cooperation, Xu Tong was responsible for installing explosives on the parking lot of two vehicles in Jianjun. Wang Simu was the backbone of the operation, cleaning up the target buildings

The Tias side agreed with the action group based on the actual situation on the battlefield, and the specific situation did not have to be reported during the operation

8:30 pm. Act ahead of time again, in order to surprise it. Lu Xiao and Qin Cong were five meters apart. Lu Xiao was responsible for covering most of the area on the right side of Lu Xiao's body behind the side of former Qin Cong

On the outskirts of this town there were only two small minefields. After passing through the minefield and approaching the edge of the town, I found that it was a bit mysterious

The houses surrounding this Mocardi town are all two storeys. It's a circle connected, and there's no gap at all. You can only have two directions to enter. Heaven and earth

The roof is also uneven in the satellite image, and some roofs are also planted with some crops because there is a water source. It is easy to grow, and of course the food produced is controlled and consumed by the militants

To some extent misleads the judgment reader of the scouting image. Planted on the roof as farmland

Also on the second floor. There are also high and low, and you can only choose a lower two-story floor to climb up

Lu Xiao looked at this lower two-story building. Its own ground is more than eight meters high from the top of the building, and it is easy to make a sound by playing a flying hook, and this outer wall is stone. There will be a crisp sound

Take out your own double knife. I inserted a brick gap of a strip of stone, and I really inserted it. Carry the rifle on your back. The pistol was inserted into a convenient position, and the double retractor was specially inserted with a double knife to climb up through the gap in the stone wall

This requires strong arm strength and lumbar abdominal force. Usually, he insists on exercising, and this is still no problem to bear

Slow outcrop of the head. I didn't see anyone, and I took a closer look at the situation on the surrounding high houses, and I saw two sentries on the top of a three-story building more than eighty meters away
