One hundred and twenty six investigations in Mogadishu
Longitude 45°21’ East, Latitude 2°02’ North, Mogadishu.
When you mention Mogadishu, what do you think of? Tropical trees, flowers, mosques, sand and dust, dull Arabic music, UH-60 Black Hawks emitting black smoke, American soldiers trapped in siege, women and children in despair.
Tears, crazy shooting militiamen...
Mogadishu, a port city on the Indian Ocean coast in northeastern Africa, is the largest city and capital of Somalia. It is located in the Shabelle River Basin, 200 kilometers from the equator. It has a cool climate and lush forests. It was once a scenic spot in Somalia.
Today, this beautiful city has completely changed its appearance. When you think of Mogadishu in "Black Hawk Down", have you ever thought that Mogadishu used to be different than this?
Mogadishu has become a place of disputes between warlords and factions, where anarchy and power-is-politics are most vividly demonstrated.
On October 3, 1993, the US military launched "Operation Code Emma", dispatching elite Rangers and Delta Force, combined with UH-60 "Black Hawk" helicopters and a variety of combat support equipment, to raid Mogadishu.
The militia stronghold in the center and captured two of Aidid's senior staff.
However, the US military fell into Aidid's trap and was trapped in street fighting. In the end, 19 people were killed and dozens injured.
Eventually, the U.S. military was forced to completely withdraw its troops from Somalia.
The withdrawal of US troops has made Somalia even more chaotic.
Thanks to the efforts of the United Nations, the situation in Somalia has gradually stabilized relatively, but gunfights and exchanges of fire still occur from time to time in Mogadishu. Today's Mogadishu can only be described as desolate.
…
At dawn, the flashing light of the lighthouse on the coast went out, and the boundless sea slowly woke up from the darkness. The rolling sea in the east began to show a unique sunrise spectacle on the sea. Towering on the coast were
The mosque spiers in the clouds, rows of ancient Arab castles, and Mogadishu, whose main color is white, gradually reveal its clear outline in the morning light.
The ground changes behind a leeward dune in a desert outside Mogadishu.
The special forces of the "Evil Spirit" special forces got out of their underground nests.
With two pieces of desert yellow rainproof cloth, a support pole, a few ropes, and a few footpegs, the special forces can build a simple one-person tent.
Dig a hole in the desert, pitch your tent in it, and use sand to camouflage it, and you'll have a warm, well-hidden nest.
The special forces began to make some preparations in this simple camp.
"Lianyan and Tengbo are in this small town fifty kilometers away. We have to arrive outside the town at two o'clock in the afternoon. There is a regular shuttle bus passing through the town at three o'clock in the afternoon, so we use this bus to enter the town center for investigation.
." Wang Chaoyang pointed at the map and said.
Wang Chaoyang and the others are about to form a large circle outside Mogadishu.
"Now everyone pack their things, clean up the traces, and set off in half an hour." Wang Chaoyang said.
The special forces soldiers began to pack up their belongings, clean the camp, and cover up the traces of their lives.
…
A dilapidated bus drove over from a distance.
Standing on the roadside were two people dressed as tourists, holding maps.
"Get ready." Wang Chaoyang squeezed Lin Xue's hand and said.
"I saw it."
"We are ready to go in, you can take action." Wang Chaoyang said to the microphone on the mobile phone headset hanging on his ear.
"Copy that, the call has been closed." Ye Qinghun said and hung up the phone.
Wang Chaoyang took off his headphones and stuffed them into his trouser pocket, took a deep breath, leaned out from the roadside and waved.
The bus slowly stopped on the side of the road, and the driver opened the door and let Wang Chaoyang and Lin Xue get on the bus.
As soon as Wang Chaoyang got into the car, he took out a few dollars and handed them to the driver.
Lin Xue took a look at the situation in the car. There were only a dozen locals and a few children in the car. There should be no threat.
The driver looked at the money and motioned for them to find a place to sit in the back.
Wang Chaoyang took Lin Xue to find a seat for two and sat down.
The bus continued to drive forward, and soon a small town appeared in front of everyone.
The town seemed very quiet, with few people walking around outside.
But this town also feels wrong and lifeless, although the smoke rising from the town clearly tells people that there are people here.
"It feels weird." Lin Xue said to Wang Chaoyang.
"Well, yes, be careful later, don't take pictures, just for viewing." Wang Chaoyang said.
"Got it." Lin Xue nodded and turned off the camera function of the phone in her hand.
The bus slowed down and entered the town.
Just when the bus entered the town, it encountered a checkpoint.
"Enemy!" Wang Chaoyang said to Lin Xue.
Wang Chaoyang could feel that Lin Xue was a little nervous. To be honest, these rebels were once in the same army, so it was possible to recognize Wang Chaoyang and Lin Xue.
Several armed men with guns on their backs were on guard in front of the checkpoint. These armed men looked Chinese. According to intelligence, this was the camp of the rebels led by Teng Bo.
A rebel waved to the driver to open the door.
The driver opened the door honestly and let the rebel soldier get in for inspection.
The soldier walked to the car and began to check the situation on the car.
Wang Chaoyang hugged Lin Xue and kissed her.
Wang Chaoyang held Lin Xue's head and kissed her passionately, but he kept observing the soldier's movements with his peripheral vision.
Initially, Wang Chaoyang thought that the soldier would just look at the car door and let him go, because this car was just a shuttle bus that passed through the town every day and did not stop in the town.
But I didn't expect this soldier to walk towards the back.
Wang Chaoyang kissed Lin Xue more passionately, burying his head in Lin Xue's hair and making Lin Xue's back face to the aisle.
Lin Xue was taken aback at first and didn't react, but then she gradually became emotionally moved by Wang Chaoyang's kiss, so she didn't care, hugged Wang Chaoyang and kissed her naturally.
The rebel soldiers walked to the last row, looked at Wang Chaoyang and the others, then turned around and walked to the front of the car and got out of the car.
"Let's go! Let's go!" The soldier waved to the driver, indicating that he could leave.
The driver closed the door and started the car.
The rebels in Sheka raised the railing to let them pass.
Wang Chaoyang didn't let go of Lin Xue until the car passed the checkpoint.
"Oh, what are you doing? You're annoying." Lin Xue blushed and hit Wang Chaoyang.
"It smells so good." Wang Chaoyang said with a wicked smile.
"I hate you, gangster!" Lin Xue said angrily.
"Hey, looking at you like this means you are emotional. Let me tell you, this is my mission, so don't think too much about it." Wang Chaoyang said deliberately.
"Hmph! Who do you think is emotional? Where's the evidence?" Lin Xue argued.
"Then, see for yourself!" Wang Chaoyang actually took out a small mirror and thrust it in front of Lin Xue.
"You..." Lin Xue was rendered speechless.
"Okay, let's continue with the mission." Wang Chaoyang hugged Lin Xue and said.
"Hmph, a good girl doesn't fight with a boy." Lin Xue held it in for a long time and finally said something to find a place for her.
"You are my girlfriend, you won't die if I kiss you."
"You...I...how can I be like you? I can catch people off guard."
"Just thank me for my quick response, otherwise we would both have been caught and got out of the car. Then you owe me a favor."
"How do I find that you are getting worse and worse now? Shameless!" Lin Xue said to Wang Chaoyang.
"What do we do? We fight bad guys. If we are not bad, how can we catch bad guys?" Wang Chaoyang said.
"It's annoying, look over there, the people here are all Chinese, and they all carry guns." Lin Xue said after hitting Su Ran, looking out the window.
Around the town, the "Evil Spirit" special forces were wearing camouflage and lying in the desert. They used binoculars on the top of the mountain to observe the situation around the town from a distance.
Three people from the intelligence team established a safe point behind a hill, set up combat support equipment here, and then connected to the aerial reconnaissance satellite, using the optical and remote sensing functions of the reconnaissance satellite to conduct reconnaissance from the air.
Soon, Wenjie and Gao Fei got the flat photos of the town taken from the satellite, as well as the distribution of people. From the photos taken by the remote sensing satellite, the positions of the people were more obvious because of the higher heat.
In the computer system, Wenjie also used the positioning and measurement functions of the "Beidou" satellite and combined with satellite photos to build a three-dimensional map of the town.
The sniper team is looking for a good sniper position.
The actions of the special forces have already declared that tonight is destined to be an unstable night.
The bus left the town and continued on its way.
Wang Chaoyang and Lin Xue got off the car about ten kilometers away from the town. After the car drove away, Wang Chaoyang took Lin Xue and ran to the back of a hidden hill.
The helicopter piloted by Chen Jinsong was already waiting there.
"Is there anything wrong?" Chen Jinsong asked.
"It's okay." When Wang Chaoyang said this, he looked at Lin Xue meaningfully.
"Go..." Lin Xue pinched Wang Chaoyang from behind.
"Ah!" Wang Chaoyang was caught off guard and screamed in pain.
"Hey, does it look like something is wrong?" Chen Jinsong said with a smile.
Chen Jinsong made Lin Xue's face turn red all of a sudden.
"No! No! Nothing happened!" Lin Xue jumped up and down and made a fuss.
"Ha ha!"
Wang Chaoyang and Chen Jinsong looked at each other meaningfully, then pointed at each other and laughed.
This made Lin Xue so angry that she jumped on the helicopter and ignored them.
"Let's go, let's retreat." Wang Chaoyang patted Chen Jinsong and said.
"yes."
Chen Jinsong and Wang Chaoyang both boarded the helicopter.
The helicopter circled on the sea, avoiding downtown Mogadishu and Teng Bo's eyes, and returned to a safe point controlled by Gao Fei and Wenjie.
"Chen Jinsong, the helicopter inspection is ready. Gao Fei, Wenjie, how is your intelligence?"
"Almost. But now we don't know where Teng Bo and Xianyan are."
"Don't worry about this. I estimate that they will be in the most heavily defended place. This time, we don't need to arrest people. Anyway, we have made our original judgment. This time, all we have to do is hunt. Hunters don't always know their prey.
Hunters only know where to find prey." Wang Chaoyang said to Gao Fei.
"It's a good idea, what should we do now?" Gao Fei asked. In fact, Gao Fei already had a plan in mind. After all, Gao Fei was the senior officer of Wang Chaoyang in terms of seniority.
"What else can we do? Bury the pot and make rice!" Wang Chaoyang found a comfortable place to sit and took off his helmet, "I'm starving to death."
