    In the safe house where the O2 team was hiding, Jiang An hurried over and whispered a few words in Lin Rui's ear.

    "So they took the bait?" Lin Rui said happily.

    Shogishi nodded, "Cobain did a great job. Look, this is the video call he used to impersonate." He clicked on the tactical computer, and a majestic-looking white man personally issued the order on the computer.  .

    "Who is this person?" Lin Rui frowned.

    "Russian Defense Minister, Kobain used videos of his meetings and speeches, edited them, and re-dubbed them with highly imitated voices to make them look like that. The Minister of Defense personally investigated the matter, and the Latakia Air Force  How could the commander of the base, Major General Alexey, ignore it?

    They must want to take advantage of this prisoner exchange event to blow the arrogance of the extremists.  But they never thought that everything was a trap set by us.  ¡± Shogan turned off the video on his computer and switched to the map.

    Lin Rui nodded, "This is the prisoner exchange location we proposed. It is located in a mountainous area with jungles around it. Although it is not enough to limit the Russian air power, at least it seems to be a favorable location. The Russian army will not fail to take this into consideration.  This, so they will definitely have other plans this time.¡±

    Jiang An nodded and said, "What did Cobain say?"

    "From his analysis, the Russian military's investment this time is not small. After Cobain invaded their information command system, he discovered many interesting things, such as this, he pointed to a drone picture."

    "Is this a Russian drone?" Park Dong-sang frowned, "I remember that Russia seems not to pay much attention to the development of this kind of drone."

    "You are right, this is the latest product of the Russian drones - the Patrol UAV. It is mainly used for large-radius reconnaissance and can also carry out small air strikes." Lin Rui whispered.  "Through Coburn's investigation, he discovered that two of the drones with attack capabilities had completed a maintenance overhaul, which usually occurs before taking off to perform a mission."

    "It is indeed like this. Special forces are deployed on the ground and rely on drones for air support. The Russians are cruel this time." Jiang An said with a smile.

    "I estimate that they will have the drone check the reservation area in advance to ensure that there are no problems before taking the people on the road." Lin Rui pointed at the map and said, "Due to the destruction of a large number of roads, from the base to the hostage exchange site,  There¡¯s not a lot of routes they can take. Especially at this location.¡±

    "Ruins outside the city of Cartagya. About two months ago, Russian and Syrian government forces fought against members of extremist organizations here. Aerial bombs and rocket launchers completely destroyed this city." Jiang An nodded.  , "You mean we ambush here to fight their ambush."

    "Yes, they would not have thought that someone would dare to take action on the outskirts of Latakia. Moreover, the area was bombed beyond recognition. There are ruins everywhere, whole collapsed houses, and extremely bad road conditions, making it difficult for them to escape quickly  ." Lin Rui whispered.

    "I can ambush on a nearby building, as long as my line of sight is not affected. There is no problem in completing accurate sniping." Yelena nodded.

    "I can also cooperate with Yelena to ambush in another direction, such as this position." Snake Eyes said, "As a second sniper point."

    "Very good." Lin Rui nodded, "However, they are likely to use BTR-90 Rostock armored vehicles to transport Faisal. And there are several BMP-3 infantry fighting vehicles for protection. It may not be easy to defeat them. Pu Dong  Xiang, is there anything you can do?"

    "Still the old way, use IED roadside bombs." Park Dong-sang said.

    "Are you okay? Use a homemade roadside bomb to blow up an armored fighting vehicle?" Sergey frowned, "Is this possible?"

    When it comes to roadside bombs, many people may not take it seriously, thinking that they are just a cold-blooded attack by guerrillas in the past.  But in fact, roadside bombs are far from that simple.  Generally refers to improvised explosive devices, in English it is "improvisedexplosivedevices", or IED for short.

    The two biggest characteristics of this kind of bomb are that it is simple to make and powerful. It is a typical method of modern asymmetric warfare.

    This kind of bomb originated in World War II and gradually developed during the Vietnam War, which has caused the US military to suffer a lot.  By the time of the Iraq War, it had reached its peak.

    This is because the anti-American forces in Iraq were unable to directly confront the US military, so they came up with the not-too-old trick of roadside bombs, and their innovations have improved.  Roadside bombs are not regular military landmines, and there are no regular manufacturers. They are often assembled by anti-American militants from scratch.  Some add detonating devices to unexploded artillery shells, while others add explosives obtained from various channels.??Explosives were concentrated.

    In order to enhance the lethality of the explosion, iron nails, steel balls, etc. are also added. For roadside bombs targeting vehicles, the shape of the projectile is modified while increasing the amount of explosives, and even adding meltable metal cores, metal cones, etc. to become  Homemade armor-piercing bullets.  There are also more powerful upgraded versions, such as adding liquid chlorine to roadside bombs, which become chemical weapons.

    There are also various ways to detonate roadside bombs. The simplest method is the same as traditional landmines, using a pressure plate and a trip rope. When a vehicle or person touches the pressure plate or trips on the rope, the bomb will explode when the primer is connected.  Of course, militants will also keep pace with the times and use a large number of civilian appliances, such as mobile phones, BP machines, washing machine timers, automatic garage door remote control devices, etc., as remote-controlled explosion detonators. In addition, magnetic, infrared and other detonation methods are also used from time to time.  Appear.  Various civilian militias are often very creative in this regard.

    "It sounds unlikely that this kind of ********* can blow up an armored vehicle. But I can tell you that Israel's 60-ton Merkava main battle tank and the United States' 66-ton M1A2 main battle tank,  There have been examples of being blown up into the sky by roadside bombs. Big things like main battle tanks cannot withstand the explosion of roadside bombs, let alone ordinary armored personnel carriers or flesh and blood." Park  Dong Xiang shrugged and said, "Actually, there is only one secret, overloading."

    "Excessive charge?" Lin Rui frowned.

    "In order to pursue the effect, we often use explosives several times more than the normal amount. This will lead to extremely powerful explosions. Unless a special explosion-proof vehicle with a V-shaped chassis is used, there is no solution, even if it is a main battle tank." Park Dong-sang  Slowly.

    Shogan nodded and said, "In Afghanistan, July 2009 was called Bloody July by the U.S-British coalition forces because from the week of July 13th to 20th alone, 30 U.S. troops were killed in Afghanistan, and there were also 30 British troops stationed in Afghanistan.  22 people lost their lives, and almost all of these 52 people were killed by roadside bombs. You must know that in the entire Gulf War, less than 150 US troops were killed in action. The number of people killed by roadside bombs in one week reached the number of casualties in a war.  A third of the total, which shows the power of roadside bombs.¡±

    "Okay, leave this matter to Park Dongxiang! I'm going to set up a lot of explosives on this section of the road. Even if they can't blow their armored vehicles into the sky, they still have to be blown out of those iron cans." Lin Rui  said in a deep voice.  As soon as they come out, Yelena and Snake Eyes have a chance to kill Faisal.  "
