"My people are still investigating. It will take a while. Please wait here for a moment."
Mandy was unable to provide Jason with more information. In order to obtain more intelligence as soon as possible, she chose to leave temporarily to collect information in person.
Team B and Team A had no problem staying here, and they began to discuss the relevant details of security.
"We have no way to ask for help from the local police, let alone seal the road in advance to ensure safety. The convoy is particularly vulnerable to rocket launcher attacks. This is a big problem."
As soon as Lei finished speaking, Clay responded: "Yes, there are also self-destructing car bombs."
"This is bad."
Jason crossed his hands on his chin and said in a deep voice: "Most of the roads in this country are very bad and cannot adapt to strategic speed.
We can only move as fast as the road surface can accommodate, which will give car bombs or rocket launchers enough time to attack."
"It's not just traffic problems, it's also serious after getting off the bus."
Diaz took over a paper satellite map, unfolded it on the table and said: "The hospital is in the center of the city and is connected to many streets around it. We simply don't have that many manpower to control all street areas."
"There are more streets, which means more people flow. If someone is wearing a bomb vest and mixed in the crowd..." Clay didn't finish his words.
Everyone knew what Clay meant, and Long Zhan added: "We all know that these people we want to protect are here for show.

In order for reporters to photograph them enjoying themselves with the people, they may ignore our warnings and walk into the crowd, giving terrorists an opportunity to take action."
"right!"
Lei agreed with Long Zhan, saying: "Politicians will not miss those opportunities to be photogenic, show compassion, and take photos with Afghan children."
"This is indeed a big problem." Eric frowned and thought deeply.
"Can we go to the venue in advance to do some work? Eliminate possible dangers as much as possible? By the way, we can get familiar with the hospital environment." Jason asked.
"This needs to be applied for in advance. I am trying my best to coordinate with the person in charge of the combat space." Eric replied.
"You mean we can't go to the site in advance to make preparations?" Lei asked in disbelief.
"The person in charge of the combat space is an army colonel, and I am just a navy captain. Do you think he will obey my orders?" Eric smiled bitterly.
"All right!"
Lei brushed his face with his hands and was completely speechless.
Obviously, Team B's team combat capabilities could easily complete this security mission. However, due to obstacles at every turn, not only the hands but also the feet were tied, and the difficulty level was directly upgraded from normal to nightmare level.
This kind of depression that is strong but unable to be beaten out, and the mentality is so bad that you may run away on the spot.
Fortunately, the first-level combatants who can enter the DG have experienced all kinds of psychological torture, and their endurance is far beyond ordinary people.
Although the constraints of this mission are terrifying, they are not enough to defeat Team B.
"So... all we can do is screen the crowd and isolate anyone who comes close to the delegation?" Lei Yaran said.
"That seems to be it."
Eric drank the coffee in his hand in one gulp, put the cup down, clapped his hands and said, "Okay, that's it for tonight. Everyone, go back and have a rest, and gather on time tomorrow morning."
There is not much available information at the moment, and all aspects are very restricted. Even the site cannot be surveyed in advance, so there is no point in continuing the discussion.
Now that the discussion is almost over, everyone in the first action team disbanded and went back to their homes to find their mothers.
As for the party that had been prepared before, after an hour or two of commotion due to this unexpected situation, everyone was no longer in the mood to continue having fun.
the next morning.
seven o 'clock.
Two armed Humvees and a JERRV were parked on the playground of the camp.
MRAP is a mine-resistant ambush vehicle, a highly armored protection vehicle developed specifically for anti-tank mines and IEDs.
According to the number of passengers and main functions, they are divided into type I, type II and type III.
The JERRV used by Team B, which stands for Explosive Ordnance Disposal Rapid Response Vehicle, is over three meters tall and over six meters long. It has V-shaped explosion-proof armor under the vehicle and every part of its body is bulletproof.
Although it is only Type II of MRAP, its armor is slightly worse than Type III, which is specialized in detonating land mines.
But it definitely deserves to be called a super turtle shell!
JERRV is usually used to complete tasks such as troop transport, rescue, and team leader or explosive disposal. It is rated to carry about ten people and is suitable for traffic roads with restricted terrain.
In Afghanistan and Iraq, where IEDs are rampant, the US military's use of Type II combat vehicles has become very mature.
Because of its powerful lightning and explosion protection capabilities, JERRV is often used as a special armored ambulance to assist medical rescue teams in performing ground medical rescue, evacuation and other tasks. It has naturally become the best means of transport for congressional delegations.
This was also the countermeasure against rockets and car bombs that were discussed at the combat center last night because the roads were restricted and it was impossible to drive at high speeds.
As long as the delegation is packed into this car, it is equivalent to covering them with a turtle shell.
In addition, two Humvees equipped with M heavy machine guns, one in front and one behind, are specially used to clear the way and cushion the rear of the vehicle, which can at least enhance the safety guarantee to the highest level.
As long as a Taliban army does not appear, it will be impossible to kill the delegation on the road.
After all members of the AB team arrived, Diaz divided the work in a targeted manner based on each member's personal abilities and expertise.
As the leader of the team, Jason still has to be closest to the target of protection.
Therefore, he was responsible for riding in the JERRV "turtle car" with the delegation and General Cook, and was responsible for personal protection and command.
The lead Hummer needs to be responsible for leading the way and opening the way in time when encountering special situations.
Whether you can drive this car well is very important.
In order to ensure that there would be no accidents on the leading Hummer, Diaz arranged for the captain of Team A, Quan Metal, to be the driver, and the deputy captain of Team B, Lei, to be the observer.
Both of them are top experts in this field, and the entire first action team is irreplaceable.
Bullock, Dog, Sonny and a member of Team A were arranged to ride in the lead Humvee. If they encounter a situation that requires fighting on the road, the three of them will need to pass through the shooting hole to engage in firefights with the enemies outside.
Among them, Sonny, as a professional machine gunner, is responsible for controlling the M heavy machine gun on the Humvee.
The tail-backing armed Humvee is not as useful as the leading Humvee, but it is still an important part of the defense.
Assuming that an enemy attack is encountered on the road and the convoy needs to quickly retreat to open a safe passage, the trailing vehicle will play a key role.
At the same time, during normal driving, it can also prevent enemies from following behind and directly attack important personnel's vehicles.
Long Zhan, Clay, Trent, Franklin, the vice-captain of Team A, and another member of Team A were in charge of riding the tail-mounted armed Hummer.
Franklin was the driver and Trent was the observer in the passenger seat.
Dragon War controls the M heavy machine gun in the vehicle tower!
The last two remaining members of Team A happened to be riding in the VIP's JERRV armored vehicle, and were responsible for serving as the driver and observer of this vehicle.
After Diaz's precise division of labor, there was a total of one member of both teams, Ab, each with their own tasks.
Before the arrival of the president and the congressmen, everyone in the AB team got into their own cars, inspected the vehicles and placed related items.
As Long Zhan and Sunny are the main fire attack points, the M heavy machine guns on the vehicles must be carefully and comprehensively inspected. (To be continued)
