Chapter 2224 Mi-8 Air Threat

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The Anmore Liberation Organization left more than 300 elite soldiers behind, while others continued to evacuate with Le Anson and others.  Lin Rui and others did not wait for the secret society's pursuers to arrive. Instead, they led these resistance soldiers to build simple defenses.  On one side, a clever scout team was dispatched to take charge of peripheral reconnaissance and further expand the defense range.  In addition, Jiang An and Xiao Feng were asked to be responsible for contacting Cobain. The technical support their team could currently rely on was Cobain's remote assistance.

    "An unknown signal was received." Jiang An whispered.  "The signal source is approaching quickly and should be the secret society's helicopter communication."

    "Only when they are relatively close, do they need to communicate so frequently. Probably using the guidance of the helicopter, the secret society began to search this area." Crazy Horse whispered, "Typical aerial reconnaissance and ground  Search for coordination. How far do you think they are from us?"

    "It shouldn't be too far." Lin Rui whispered, "Listen!"

    "The sound of the helicopter engine" Jiang An said attentively, "The large twin engine should be Mi-8 Hippo or Mi-24 Hind."

    "I saw it." Snake Eyes whispered in the distance, "My guess is good, it's Mi-8tv. I can see two, and maybe a third."

    Crazy Horse whispered, "This is not a good sign. The Mi-8tv is an armed modification of the T-type. The standard equipment is to install a 7.62mm machine gun in the cabin, and three additional cannons above the two main landing gears.  It has a weapon external hardpoint, which can be used to mount an S-557mm rocket launcher. In addition, it can also be externally mounted with a 9m-17p anti-tank missile. It poses a considerable threat to the ground."

    "Snake Eyes, report their distance and height." Lin Rui whispered.

    "They went around, in a position that I couldn't observe." Snake Eyes put down the telescope in his hand. He climbed on the tree, camouflaged with leaves, and his face was also covered in black and green camouflage paint.  It looks like a bunch of vines growing on a tree.

    "Last time we attacked their transport team, we used crossbow missiles, so they seemed to be on guard." Jiang An whispered, "Boss, what do you think we should do?"

    "The aerial firepower of these helicopters is enough to change the entire battlefield situation. If we want to hold on to the pass, we must defeat them." Lin Rui whispered.

    "But they are very alert. The cover of the jungle prevents us from locking on them. Once we enter an open position, we will be attacked by their ground attack weapons first." Crazy Horse took out the Chinese-made weapon from the box next to him.  Feinu individual air defense missile.  Quickly put it down again.

    "Their height is very high, close to 4,000 meters. The maximum shooting height of the Fei Nu-6 is 3,800 meters, so I am not sure that I can take them down. And once one of the shots misses, we will become their key target.  The flight trajectory of the crossbow missile will expose us." Crazy Horse shook his head.

    "Wait a minute, they can't always be at a height close to the ceiling." Lin Rui frowned.  "Once they find an abnormality, they will still lower their altitude for reconnaissance. At that time, it is our opportunity." Crazy Horse nodded, and the others were waiting nervously.  The good news is that these two Mi-8tvs are not dedicated reconnaissance helicopters after all, and they do not have precise observation equipment.  Moreover, the model is relatively old. If you want to detect the ground situation, you must eventually lower the altitude.

    So after several weeks of circling, the two helicopters began to gradually lower their altitude.  Lin Rui and others were hiding in the jungle and could hear the engine sound getting clearer and clearer.

    Lin Rui whispered, "Crazy Horse, how are you?"

    "We have entered the range, but it is still not ideal. The number of flying crossbow missiles is limited, and I don't want to miss one shot." Crazy Horse whispered.

    "Then don't do anything yet." Lin Rui lowered his voice.

    "What do you mean?" Crazy Horse asked in shock.  "Should we let them go?"

    Lin Rui whispered, "Of course not. But now we may still be able to use them. Snake Eyes, by observing the flight position of the helicopter, can you judge the location of the enemy's ground weapons?"

    "Maybe I can't judge accurately, but I can guess the approximate direction and distance." Snake Eyes whispered.  "They should still be outside our attack range."

    "Even if they enter the attack range, we will not take action for the time being. We will wait until they get closer." Lin Rui whispered.

    "What do you mean?" Snake Eyes whispered.

    "It suddenly occurred to me that once we are in close combat with the secret society's armed forces, their helicopters can only lower their altitude to provide support. The 57mm rockets on their helicopters cannot be bombed at our own people. In this way, we can only lower the altitude and provide firepower with machine guns.  Support. This is the chance for Crazy Horse and Scarface. They will use the crossbow missile to kill the helicopter. ThenThey can retreat to the vicinity of the pass as planned, as long as they have no air firepower.  It won't be that easy to successfully capture the mountain pass.  Lin Rui said in a deep voice.

    "Isn't this too risky, boss? It will cause us to get too close to their ground forces. I don't believe those anti-government guerrillas can withstand them." Sausage whispered.

    "At this point, we don't have much choice but to believe them." Lin Rui whispered.

    "They have lowered their altitude again, which shows that their reconnaissance effect is not good. It also shows that the ground armed forces of the secret society have entered the jungle area, which forces them to lower their altitude again in order to provide reconnaissance for the ground troops."  The hidden Snake Eyes whispered.  "Their flight altitude has dropped to less than two thousand meters."

    "Be careful. Don't expose yourself." Lin Rui whispered.

    "It's okay, the location I chose is well covered. Even if they stare at me, as long as I don't move, they can't find me." Snake Eyes whispered, "Yelena, how are you doing there?"

    "I can't see the helicopter from my position, but I can already see the members of the secret society in the distance. The actual measured distance is about 1,300 meters, and they are still approaching." Yelena was at another height  On the ground, adjusting the telescope in his hand.  Her sniper rifle was beside her.  Like all snipers, she must use her binoculars to locate the target before taking aim.

    "Both of you snipers, listen carefully. Stop firing and wait for my order." Lin Rui whispered, "We can't alert them yet. Our first target is the two Mi-8tv helicopters.  Only by killing them can we have a chance to continue fighting the secret society. Otherwise, we will not be able to cope with their aerial firepower."
