Chapter 603 The beginning of the operation (please vote for me at the end of the month)
Colonel Martinez seemed to want to persist, but was blocked by Jason, "You said you were at my disposal, didn't you?"
Then there was nothing to argue about. The Mexican took out the satellite map. Lieutenant Lopez, who had grown up in Depro since he was a child and was extremely familiar with every brick here, held a pen. , while explaining, marking key terrain on it.
After a while, the members of Team B stood behind captain Jason and deputy team member Ray Perry, and started discussing in low voices.
Jack still likes this kind of military style. Although there are arguments and differences, once the goal is established, everyone stops talking nonsense and works together to achieve the goal.
"A densely populated 'small village' where it's hard to tell the difference between friend and foe, just like what we experienced in Afghanistan, right?" Jason muttered to himself.
“Sounds similar, a roundabout infiltration strategy?” As his partner, Ray Perry immediately understood what he was thinking.
"Take a vehicle to the nearest safe point as possible, then walk to the target location, fight directly, clean house by house and then rush in and out?"
"That's right." Jason Nodding in agreement, Commander Eric Blackburn on the side The major smiled and joked, "It seems that the tacit understanding between you two guys is enough to get married."
"If this is the case, we have to choose the vehicle carefully and get two less eye-catching ones. Car?" said Sonny Quinn, standing behind the two.
"No cars, at least two seven-seater SUVs, with window tint, so no one can notice the inside." Jason shook his head and objected.
"If Colonel Martinez and Lieutenant Lopez join us, plus Jack, we can split into three groups and sweep two floors at the same time."
Colonel Martinez suddenly Looking embarrassed, "Actually, Lieutenant Lopez will not participate in this raid."
Jason was slightly stunned, as if he didn't hear clearly, "I'm sorry, what did you say?" The other team members also said The colonel can participate even though he looks confused. Is there anything special about this lieutenant?
Lieutenant Lopez's face flushed slightly and he was a little embarrassed. "I came from Depro. Many people there are familiar with me, and they don't even need to see my appearance clearly."
"The profession of a soldier is inherently dangerous. Everyone here, including everyone here, is risking their lives." Clay Spencer said rather unhappily.
Everyone works with their heads in their belts. Besides, this guy is a local, familiar with the terrain, and is the most suitable guide. But he actually ran away?
"Lopez will not participate in this operation. This is my request." Colonel Martinez emphasized again.
"Okay, then I don't want him to listen to our battle plan here." Jason threw away the pencil in his hand, leaned back, and looked at the other party with contempt.
"You doubt me?" Lieutenant Lopez's originally slightly blushing face turned even redder. Unlike before, he was irritated by this contemptuous attitude.
"Of course, I don't trust you. After all, it's hard to trust a soldier who refuses to fight, isn't it?" Jason's tone was calm, as if he was simply stating a fact.
Lieutenant Lopez stood up angrily, staring fiercely at Jason, but before he could make his next move, Colonel Martinez grabbed him.
Colonel "Lopez" whispered something in Spanish. Only Jack heard his words clearly, "Don't be impulsive, think about your family."
After coaxing the angry lieutenant out of the conference room, Colonel Martinez smoothed things over, "Lopez is a good soldier, he just has a temper. Let's move on."
"Let's talk about the rules of engagement. "Okay." Jack, who was not even a soldier, had always remained silent when it came to specific combat deployments. After all, professional people should be allowed to do professional things. Finally, he spoke to break the awkward atmosphere.
He had roughly guessed what Jason was thinking, and he didn't quite agree with him using this kind of provocation method. But now that it was like this, he couldn't expect a group of American soldiers to understand the situation of these Mexicans for a while. He could only wait until afterwards. Talked to Jason.
“No first fire,” the commander, Major Eric Blackburn, replied.
Time passed slowly as everyone spoke to each other. Half an hour later, the combat meeting ended and all arrangements were made.
A total of 8 people from Team B plus Jack and Colonel Martinez participated in the operation. Major Blackburn will be in the command center. He will work with logistics support officer Lisa Davis and CIA intelligence officer Mandy ·Ellis cooperated with this combat operation through drones.
The action time was set in one hour, and finally Colonel Martinez made a brief concluding speech.
"We don't know how many people Doza can muster in Depro, but it's not much different to directly regard it as an enemy-occupied area. Once we enter it, anyone anywhere, including women and children, may attack us.
Once someone is left alone, the consequences will be self-evident, so be careful. My soldiers will be deployed outside Doza's territory as a quick reaction force, and reinforcements will not arrive in more than 20 minutes. "Is everything clear?" "No problem, just do it." Jason stood up and signaled the team members to get ready.
——
“These Mexican Marines’ uniforms are simply tights.” Sonny Quinn complained while struggling to adjust his crotch in the underground parking lot. .
"Just make do with it, Sonny. The Mexican government doesn't want to see us running around in the city wearing US military uniforms." Deputy team member Ray Perry checked the engines of the two SUVs again very carefully.
"Everything has a bright side, at least this uniform highlights your amazing big butt." Clay Spencer stuffed the spare weapon into the trunk and joked with a smile.
"Wow, I seemed to hear some people seeming to be jealous of my perky glutes." Sonny deliberately raised his butt towards a certain rookie.
“Wait a minute, why is there a fat butt blocking my way?” Jason, who had just walked down to the parking lot, kicked him up without saying a word.
"Gentlemen, it seems that you are in good spirits. Keep your eyes open and grab your weapons. My people will drive and lead the way for everyone. Get ready to go." He led two subordinates down the stairs on the other side. Colonel Martinez came to the parking lot and said hello to everyone.
The middle-aged and fat man was also fully armed, but the bulletproof vest was embarrassing and could only cover half of his huge beer belly, which looked a bit funny.
"It looks like we won't be alone today." Jack, who was about to get in the car, suddenly stopped and looked in the direction where Colonel Martinez came from just now.
Everyone followed his gaze and saw the stern-faced Lieutenant Lopez holding an AR-15 assault rifle and being fully armed like everyone else, walking towards them.
“Are you sure you want to participate?” When he stood in front of him, Colonel Martinez stared into his eyes and asked in Spanish with a serious expression.
"This is my war, too, Colonel." Lieutenant Lopez saluted his commander with a generous expression on his face.
"I'm glad to see you change your mind." Jason saw that his provocation method was effective, and he changed his previous aggressive attitude and showed a friendly side.
Lieutenant Lopez said nothing more, but solemnly nodded to him.
Everyone got in the car and set off. It was already approaching evening. Perhaps because it was located on a plateau, although the sun was setting, the sun was still a bit dazzling.
Two inconspicuous looking Nissan SUVs drove through the bumpy asphalt road. The closer they got to Depro, the worse the road conditions became.
Turning around a corner, a building with obvious religious style appeared in front of us. This was a church school, but there were also Doza propaganda posters on the outer wall.
"Is Doza still a teacher in a missionary school?" Jason said sarcastically.
"He donated money to the school, and if the priest dared not accept it or tore down the poster, someone would rush into the school and put a 9mm bullet in his head the next moment." Lieutenant Lopez He replied expressionlessly.
There was also a dark green painted police car parked next to the school. Knowing that it had entered the Depro range, Clay Spencer was a little strange, "I thought the chaotic place you were talking about was a place where the police were prohibited. Entered."
"Federal police and military. The team is prohibited from entering, but drug dealers also need people to maintain order. Don’t be surprised when the police in these places shoot you. They are all paid to do their jobs.”
The thought of dying at the hands of those corrupt police officers. Matt Graver, Jack felt quite sad.
"To be honest, I'm becoming more and more curious about what happened to you the last time you came to Mexico." Jason gossiped.
"You can just ask your CIA girlfriend, haven't you two worked together for several years? She must have read the relevant reports." Jack grinned mischievously.
"Hey! Don't talk nonsense. If this reaches Alanna's ears, you will be dead asshole." Jason was quite angry.
"Stop making trouble, be alert, we are almost there." Ray Perry, who was sitting in the passenger seat, reminded, and then contacted the rear through the communication channel.
"Operation Center, this is B2, the black Labrador has been passed, have you received it?"
The entire combat plan is divided into 6 stages, which are referred to by some dog names. The black Labrador represents reaching the final safe point, and the next step is called the golden retriever, which refers to the target that can be seen visually. Buildings, it is the Pitbull that breaks into the target building.
