Using small steel needles to deal with the Lake District branch of Boko Sanctuary, which doesn't even have a pickup truck, is too extravagant; ordinary high-explosive shells would suffice.
Of course, there are more economical options.
"Bang"
Paul, on the left side of the helicopter, pulled the trigger, and the driver of the third motorcycle was shot straight through the chest.
He pulled back the bolt, caught the ejected cartridge case, and calmly chambered the second bullet.
"Bang"
The RPG marksman, who had gotten off the bus early to ambush the two, suddenly went black and fell into a deep, baby-like sleep.
Xia Yu upgraded the AS550 with titanium alloy armor, but the best defense is to avoid being hit, especially since the tail rotor of a small aircraft is more vulnerable.
"Beep beep beep"
Old Ke replied.
The newly purchased old doe also needed the same throwing kit to become a resurrected bomb deer.
The three-way coalition of nearly 300 troops has successfully stormed into the village of Juma Atoro and is screening for militants hiding among the civilians.
While the Boko Haram members who retreated and rushed into the ambush zone were suppressed by automatic grenade launchers, heavy machine guns, and general-purpose aircraft and unable to show themselves, the Giraffe crew had already flown to the other side of the island and dropped their third aerial bomb.
"We're back now."
Several hundred meters away, another one was thrown, and the Boko Holy Land members, who had flipped over belly, successfully surpassed 100 in number.
"Calling Giraffe, this is Weasel. We have confirmed that the other side does not have portable anti-aircraft missiles. Requesting support!"
They thanked Pearl for bringing them the catch.
Throw it all away, that's it!
Watching the bomb deer depart gracefully, the weasel crew continued to unleash their last salvo.
This ancient predatory multifinned fish tastes great. It's delicious in sweet and sour sauce, and it's also fragrant when sliced into fillets for a spicy fish dish. I asked Lao Wu to make it when I got home.
Xia Yu had just disembarked when he looked at Old Ke and his group returning from the village and said...
Xia Yu didn't need to worry about the hundreds of people who were retreating, but he needed to deal with Hei Ge, who was thrashing about in the water and trying to escape to both sides. That would require calling for backup.
To be honest, they are indeed needed. The 12.7mm bullets are much less lethal after entering water, and only the steel needles of the 20mm bullets are still usable; high-explosive rounds are no good either.
Once it was confirmed that there was no suspicion, they quickly grabbed the patched fishing net, along with a basin and a bucket, and rushed to the shore.
The aerial bombs dropped from thousands of meters above exploded upon contact with the water, creating a water column dozens of meters high. Subsequently, a large number of black people and fish and shrimp floated to the surface.
This was also an added-value service provided by Xia Yu, which involved transferring bomb modification kits from the old female Mi-24Vs damaged by the hurricane to the new Mi-24Vs, modifying a total of 3 bomb-equipped Mi-24Vs.
Even machine guns have their limits in limited combat environments, but fortunately another weapon has solved this problem.
He was referring to the spoils of war.
They don't get close for fear of being shot down by missiles. That's all they have. They're always extremely cautious when they launch an attack. Now that the concentrated fire defense has cleared the minefield, they certainly won't let this opportunity to strike a victim slip by.
Amidst the sound of propellers, a Mi-24V that looked ordinary at first glance, but seemed a bit off upon closer inspection, took off over the battlefield.
Xia Yu called out over the radio.
"Giraffe received, arriving on the battlefield in 3 minutes."
The firefighting work in Zha'de has temporarily come to an end. The investigation of people in the surrounding hundreds of villages is the work of the Zha'de Army. NNSBS will go to Kamalong with them.
Waste is indeed shameful. After the battle, Xia Yu landed and took the SOC-R to the middle of the lake to retrieve a tiger-striped dinosaur king.
There was nothing they could do; the vehicle was destroyed, and the warehouse still contained a large quantity of MK series aerial bombs purchased from Pakistan.
"boom"
Only by cutting off these branches and tendrils can they launch a general offensive against the main force of the Boko Holy Land and completely crush them into a disorganized mess.
"boom"
On the other side, Hans was firing efficiently. With 1,470 rounds of ammunition on his machine gun turret, he could fire nearly 60 short bursts. When he spotted groups of three to five targets, he would unleash a whole magazine, leaving the enemy with plenty of bullets.
"boom"
The absence of an electro-optical head indicates a lack of night-fighting capability, but the four MK82 bombs mounted on the wing jib racks instead of rocket pods prove that this is not a simple old Hind, but a Griffin bomber Hind.
"boom"
"Splash splash"
The two-person crew, with a temporary codename, dropped the first 500-pound bomb within the area designated by Xia Yu.
Andrei drove his Chinook back to pick up the people.
The RH202 on the Lyman AS550 can be loaded with DM63 small steel needles, but the current problem is that the thermal imaging cannot penetrate the water surface.
"Splash splash"
"This branch is very poor. Besides weapons and ammunition, it only has some local currency, which is left to the NNSBS and the Tsuna Army."
Aren't they all swimming champions? Why aren't they swimming?
Illegal dynamite fishing can only bring up 5 divers, while legal counter-terrorism dynamite fishing can bring up about the same number of divers as those who go underwater.
After the battle began on the island in the middle of the lake, a Zha Deer bomber took off and hovered around the perimeter of the lake area.
The three-way coalition forces, having successfully landed on the island from the front, pressed forward, squeezing the activity space of these Boko Holy Land members and driving them to the rear and flanks.
The strike division's main task is to kill personnel; don't even think about money, the bulk of it goes to headquarters.
"Once we eliminate the Boko Holy Land's branch in Kamalon, we'll return to Niriliya. Sheko has kidnapped quite a few people over the years; it's very lucrative."
Xia Yu continued.
Shekau is the current leader of Boko Haram, and it was under his leadership that the organization became extremely radicalized, gaining such notoriety that the United States has offered a $7 million bounty for his head.
To be honest, this guy is indeed a madman. In addition to bombing military camps and civilians, he also targeted the United Nations headquarters for bombing. Even the province of Essis, which he split off from, thought he was too extreme.
Several years later, the bounty has now risen to 10 million, which is 5 million more than the bounty for Belmukhtar in the Sahel region.
This time, they will not only receive the contract payment from Niriliya, the client, but they can also get another sum from Lao Mei.
“Several of my friends said he lived a very simple life, wearing only ordinary clothes and riding a motorcycle, and never being extravagant.”
Old Ke talked about what his comrades-in-arms in Kamalung thought of Xie Kao.
"Simplicity is the best disguise. Dressing like this makes him indistinguishable from his subordinates, which minimizes the chances of being beheaded."
Doesn't Xia Yu know this trick?
Wearing a red robe and having a long beard on the battlefield is a major taboo. The longer you survive, the better. Being too flashy will not end well.
"But it's also a good thing; the more frugal he is, the higher our profits will be."
From another perspective, although it's a bit difficult to catch, catching it is like winning a grand slam.
"Splash splash"
The air was released from the F470, and the SOC-R was also hoisted onto the belly of the Chinook.
The AS550, still carrying ammunition, led the formation; the CH-47D, with its mixed cargo and personnel loads and external stores, followed by the Mi-24V with its door-mounted machine gun and ammunition, brought up the rear. The three helicopters formed a formation and returned to the forward base in the afternoon.
They handed the catch over to Lao Wu to handle, while the rest of them began packing their belongings.
With the matter of the tsunamis settled, they were now heading to Kamalung.
The roads may still be a bit muddy, but by the time we officially return to Niriliya for the operation, it should be completely clear.
Night fell quickly, and the sauerkraut fish stew in the big pot was bubbling away, looking very appetizing.
The quality of export-grade sauerkraut is quite good, so I'm really reassured. But Lao Wu also pickles his own.
The small pot had chili peppers, while the large pot was only mildly spicy. Xia Yu, who only ate the standard spicy version, opened a bottle of beer and enjoyed the celebratory meal with his friends.
Solid preliminary preparations allowed the operation to be carried out very smoothly in the lake area. The situation in Kamalon was not too difficult to deal with. Old Ke and his men had been there for several weeks and had gathered all the necessary intelligence.
The real test will be the operation on Niri-Liya's home turf. Boko Haram's headquarters of seven or eight thousand people are actually scattered.
They know very well what it means to break up a large group into smaller ones. Xia Yu needs to find a way to gather them together and use their firepower advantage to annihilate them as much as possible.
Jihuo Defense has two months to plan this, so there's no particular rush.
Davis was particularly anxious. Their plane didn't go to Kongluga, but as soon as it landed in Niriliya, they learned the bad news that the other party had gone to Zhade a few days earlier.
Damn, this guy can run so fast!
Xia Yu expressed his innocence, saying that he had no recourse and that the only thing to blame was that Boko Haram was a transnational extremist organization with members active in multiple countries.
Besides neighboring countries like Tshad, Kamalon, and Niger, even Sudan and Southern Sudan appeared, demonstrating just how fast they expanded.
The only option for concentrated fire defense is to follow suit and fight in multiple countries, defeating them one by one.
Nothing happened that night. The next morning, the vehicles transporting heavy equipment such as tanks and infantry fighting vehicles set off first, while Xia Yu flew in formation with Lu Hu and two other helicopters towards Kamalong.
Festus and nnsbs stayed to rest for another day, so when Davis flew to Njamena Airport and saw that the three C-130Hs in Nizhny Novgorod were still there, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
This special boat unit is responsible for assisting in the concentrated fire defense. They haven't left, so the other side should still be there too.
This is the normal situation, but most of the technical staff didn't participate in the rapid annihilation battle, and even at this low intensity, they still need to rest and recuperate.
No need. It was only during that short-term deployment in the Middle East that everyone was exhausted, so Xia Yu gave the veteran employees two weeks off.
This operation in the Zha De Lake area can only be considered a warm-up; the most important thing is to quickly sever the second tentacle of the Boko Holy Land.
"Lieutenant Colonel, I feel like this guy is a money-grubbing lunatic."
Upon arriving at the forward base, after learning that they had missed their second attempt, one of Davis's captains complained to him.
"Who doesn't like money? But it's wrong to say they don't value their lives. They wiped out nearly 1,000 Boko Haram members in one operation. We'd need to send a whole squadron of SEALs or SWCCs!"
Davis estimated as he spoke.
Of course, we also have to add the Marine Corps' Cobra.
If the same NNSB and Tsuna Army cooperate, the number of troops can only be reduced by half; any less and it will be unsafe.
"So elite!"
The captain's tone was somewhat surprised.
"What do you think this is? This is still the lake area operation. Their signature heavy ground equipment hasn't even been deployed yet."
Davis crouched down in front of a deep truck rut, which must have been used to pull tanks and infantry fighting vehicles!
"So what do we do now?"
The group looked at each other, and finally the captain spoke on behalf of everyone and asked.
"Keep chasing them. The NNSBS that are cooperating with them haven't left yet, and the Marines and the special forces trained by the British are useless. The other side won't launch an attack for the time being."
Davis's judgment was correct. After landing in a military camp in Kamalon, Xia Yu and his group's first task was to settle in.
His plan was to resolve the Boko Sanctuary branch here within a week.
Cameroon's army, with only 13,000 men, and its special forces, which were hastily established, made it an ideal target for Boko Haram's infiltration.
Not to mention its extremely advantageous geographical location; Shekau's main stronghold, the Sambisa Forest, is located on the border between the two countries, making it very convenient to move in and out.
Over the years, the size of the Kamalung branch has fluctuated between 1,500 and 2,000 people, far more than the number of people in the branches within the Zhade region.
Eating them all would definitely cause Xie Kao great pain.
In fact, Xie Kao is in great pain now that he has learned that all his strongholds in the Zha De Lake area have been wiped out.
"Concentrated fire defense, it's concentrated fire defense again. Why are they everywhere?"
Xie Kao, who has been paying close attention to the development of the global jihadist cause, has naturally heard of the name Ji Huo Defense. However, he still feels unreal when PMC, a company that is far away from him, comes knocking on his door.
"Chief, their next target is either Niger or Kamalon, but Niger itself is in chaos, so it's more likely to be Kamalon. We need to send reinforcements there."
Xie Kao's men offered him advice.
It's frightening that members of extremist groups are educated. This military staff officer from Libya is quite capable; he grasped the key point immediately.
“You’re right. They will definitely target our branch in Kamalon. We must send reinforcements. Also, we need to launch a new attack on those infidels.”
Xie Kao had many more things to consider, and it was precisely at times like these that he was determined to commit a major crime to strike at the other side.
Without much thought, he set a new target and instructed his men to conduct reconnaissance as soon as possible and to develop a comprehensive plan.
Xia Yu in Kamalong was unaware that Xie Kao was planning to make headlines; a group of special guests had diverted his attention.
"Hello, Mr. Sherlock!"
After shaking hands with the old US Navy lieutenant commander, he instantly connected them with the batch of F-5s he had purchased.
Their air force has always used the Tiger II MiG-28 fighter jet as the hypothetical enemy, from the Phantom and Tomcat eras all the way to the Hornet era.
Not to mention the F-5N, which has undergone a major upgrade to push the F-5 to the level of a third-generation fighter. It seems they intend to use it for the entire Super Hornet era.
However, their own old F-5s have exceeded their service life limit, and the production line has been shut down for who knows how many years. Therefore, recycling second-hand Tiger II fighter jets globally has become the only remaining option.
"Hello, Lieutenant Colonel Davis, welcome to Cameron. A mango juice, please."
"This business has come to us," Xia Yu said, offering his services.
"Thank you, Mr. Sherlock. I heard that you recently purchased a batch of 27 F-5 fighter jets in Switzerland."
Davis took the cup, took only a sip, and then asked about the fighter jets.
That's too hasty and not tactful at all.
"Yes, I personally really like American-made fighter jets. When I saw an F-5 in such good condition, I bought it specifically to collect it."
Xia Yu deliberately said this to Davis.
