Chapter 289 Energy Conservation(1/2)
The situation in Chuliya has been undergoing a dramatic change recently.
Since February 2018, government forces have launched a military operation known as "Damascus Steel" and continued to launch a fierce offensive in the Eastern Ghouta area, located on the eastern outskirts of Damascus.
In April, the rebels surrounded Douma, the largest town in Eastern Ghouta, and the area of control further expanded.
However, just as the dust was settling, a suspected chemical attack suddenly occurred in Douma, reportedly killing at least 70 people.
The rebels immediately claimed that the government military had used chemical weapons, and multiple international medical monitoring and activist groups, including the Black Helmets, immediately followed up with reports.
On April 13, the president on the other side of the ocean gave a speech on the chemical weapons attack and announced an attack on Suliya.
The next day, Damascus came under air strikes, and violent explosions were heard in many places...
On the same day, the last batch of 4,000 rebels who were besieged in Douma safely withdrew from Douma in accordance with the evacuation agreement...
"According to all aspects of intelligence, the air strike was launched by the Mi, Eagle, and France countries, and was carried out by ship-based, submarine-launched and air-borne cruise missiles.
The Eagle Force's Tornado GR4, supported by four Typhoon fighter jets, took off from the Royal Air Force Base in Akrotiri, Cyprus, firing a total of eight Storm Shadow missiles.
The French Navy has deployed a Kacha-class destroyer, a Georges Legue-class frigate, a Durance-class supply ship and the multi-purpose frigates Aquitaine, Auvergne and Lange in the eastern Mediterranean.
Aircraft carrier battle group composed of Doc.
As for the US military, two B-1 bombers of the 34th Bomb Squadron launched a total of 19 JASSM missiles after taking off from Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar.
The Arleigh Burke-class destroyer USS Laboon and the Ticonderoga-class guided missile cruiser USS Monterey in the Red Sea fired 7 and 13 Tomahawk missiles respectively.
The Arleigh Burke-class destroyer located in the northern Persian Gulf launched 23 Tomahawk missiles, and the Virginia-class nuclear submarine USS John Warner in the Mediterranean launched 6 Tomahawk missiles...
In total, more than 100 Tomahawk missiles were launched.
The bombing targets include the Bassa Scientific Research Center in Damascus, the warehouses of the Sin-Hinshahr complex in eastern Homs, and the bunkers of the Sin-Kinshahr complex.
The government forces dispatched Pantsir-S1, S-125, S-200, Kuban and Kvadrat air defense systems to respond, but the interception effect was not good..."
At a certain military base, a stern-faced officer was explaining in front of a huge military map.
Fifteen special forces soldiers wearing desert camouflage uniforms sat upright and listened carefully. One of them was Chu Tian.
After the officer finished introducing the information, Chu Tian stood up and saluted him, then turned to face his team members.
"The above is the recent military situation in the surrounding areas. And this time, in addition to the obvious military teaching mission and military observation mission, our dragon hunting team has another secret operation target here!"
Chutian pointed to the Eastern Ghouta area on the edge of Damascus on the map.
“Although the war in Eastern Ghouta is coming to an end and the overall situation of the government forces has been decided, there are still many small groups of rebels in the surrounding area, and the composition of these rebels is complex.
In addition to the local resistance forces, there are also a considerable number of remnants from IS, including members of the "Permafrost" organization that threatens our national security.
According to our intelligence, after the civil war in Choliya intensified in 2012, the "Permafrost" organization responded to the call of IS and other extremist organizations and began to move from the border of Afghanistan to Choliya to join the rebel armed forces.
According to incomplete statistics, there are currently about 3,000 to 5,000 "permafrost" elements fighting in Culiya.
With the defeat of IS in surrounding areas, the risk of 'spillover' or 'return' of IS militants from various countries around the world is increasing.
Our secret mission this time is to go to the Eastern Ghouta area to search for the specific location of one of the extremely dangerous members of the "Permafrost" organization, and try to prevent these defeated troops from returning to our country and affecting the stability and prosperity of the northwest of the motherland!
If possible, annihilate them directly!"
Chu Tian's face was serious.
"Because it is a secret operation, we cannot act openly as Chinese soldiers. From now on, we are a supernumerary special operations team of the government army.
Due to the timeliness of intelligence, you only have three days to familiarize yourself with your weapons and equipment and combat environment, and take action immediately after three days!"
Chu Tian looked at the tanned team members again.
"Heizi, the language system here is complicated, are there any problems?"
"Arabic, Arabic, Armenian, Aramaic and Turkish, except for Kurdish I am not good at, the rest are trivial!"
"Very good, let's start getting ready!"
"Yes! Captain!"
After all the team members went out, the officer who explained the situation before smiled and gave Chu Tian a big hug.
"Old Chu, I didn't expect to meet you here."
"Haha! I didn't expect you to be sent here as a foreign military observer. No wonder you, this old boy, can't be contacted in the past two years.
The last time we met was at the red-blue competition in the Eastern Theater District. It has been more than three years. I remember you were still a small staff officer at that time."
"Staff is just a staff, what a little staff!" The officer rolled his eyes. "It has been more than three years, but I still remember the grudge that day!"
"Haha! How dare you, Lao Xu, a staff officer, dare to resist in front of our special operations team? We don't know each other if we don't fight." Thinking of the situation that day, Chu Tian couldn't help laughing.
"Hmph! If you hadn't come here to behead our headquarters for fun, the results of that year's exercise might have been the other way around!" Officer surnamed Xu said unconvinced.
After saying that, I couldn't help but laugh.
"Speaking of which, it was because of that time that I learned the hard way and concentrated on studying special operations and counter-special operations. No, when I had an opportunity, I was sent here to be a military observer!"
"Then you have to seize the opportunity this time. There are not many opportunities to observe our fighting methods, hehe!"
"Hey! But I can see that everyone under your command is a great young man. By the way, are your siblings and Xiaonan okay?"
"Well... although something happened a while ago, fortunately, there was no danger. Xiaonan, the child, was originally a bit weak, but after going through some hardships, he has matured a lot. It can be regarded as a blessing in disguise." Chu Tian sighed a little.
Observer Xu was stunned for a moment, then smiled.
"That's right, how can a child who grows up in a greenhouse grow into a man?
As the saying goes, when someone is given a great responsibility by heaven, he must work hard first. When Xiaonan is older, you can throw him to me and temper him in the big melting pot of the army. I guarantee that I will forge a good piece of steel for you!"
"Okay, but you old boy, don't take revenge when the time comes!"
"Well... maybe, the father's debt must be repaid by the son..."
The two looked at each other and burst into laughter.
After reminiscing about old times, Observer Xu looked at his former friend and his face gradually became serious.
"Old Chu, I know that your dragon hunting team is all elite, but this mission must not be taken lightly.
Not to mention the recent turmoil in Damascus, where the forces of various organizations are intertwined and the situation is extremely complex.
Moreover, after those members of the "Permafrost" organization have experienced six years of actual combat training in the Asian civil war, their combat experience and tactical awareness cannot be underestimated. In addition, there are forces behind the opponent, so they must not take it lightly!"
Chu Tian also looked solemn.
"Of course, it is precisely because these people are extremely dangerous that we are here.
Otherwise, once they are allowed to return, it will definitely pose a huge threat to domestic security and stability!"
"Well! I leave everything to you!" Observer Xu solemnly saluted with a military salute.
Chu Tian smiled and returned a military salute.
"Of course, this is my mission!"
…
Sioux City.
It is still a bustling scene with busy traffic, singing and dancing.
"Bang!" After closing the car door, Song Bin looked up and looked at the building in front of him where his "new boss" was said to be...
"Evergreen Biotechnology Co., Ltd."......
Why would a biomedical CEO come to acquire a film and television media company that was on the verge of bankruptcy...
It’s quite outrageous!
But this was not the time for him, an entrepreneurial failure, to be picky.
Everyone has his own mission.
And his current mission is to try his best to prevent the more than 20 employees who have been following him from suddenly losing their jobs...
Song Bin adjusted his suit, took a deep breath, and walked into the building...
…
"Song Bin, Mr. Song, right? Please sit down."
"Dr. Gao, I have admired you for a long time! I can't afford President Song. Just call me Song Bin."
To be continued...
