Diego Garcia is the largest and southernmost coral island in the Chagos Islands in the central Indian Ocean. With a population of about 3,500, the island is an open V-shaped coral atoll to the north. The central lagoon is 24 kilometers long and 6.4 kilometers wide. It is a natural harbor.

This is a military base leased by the U.S. military from the United Kingdom and an important U.S. naval and air base in the Indian Ocean. There is also a modern arsenal and communication center. A military force of about three thousand people is stationed on the entire island of Di. Among them, there are about 1,700 military personnel, including officers and soldiers of the long-range bomber force and naval nuclear submarine officers and soldiers, among which 1,500 civilian personnel are mainly engaged in non-military combat missions.

Originally, only 50 of the troops on this island were British soldiers. However, due to special circumstances, there are a few more British warships anchored here than in the past. The information war room on the island is noisy. Many soldiers are busy, but it seems that Lin Rui and others are lazy and idle.

Sergey's injury is not healed, but this does not stop him from drinking. Zhao Jianfei has been lying halfway on the sofa, playing cards with the brothers around him. Lincoln was whistling to a female American soldier in charge of communications. The mercenary dangling cigarettes and yelling, it was almost a miasma. Until a US military in charge of liaison invited them to the tactical room.

"Gentlemen, I think we have locked the course of this ship." An American soldier said in a deep voice, "They will pass this position tonight. This is the approximate course we have drawn based on satellite navigation. Although they are now Get rid of tracking and abandoned satellite navigation, but this will be their only way. The mission time is determined at nine o'clock in the evening."

"I hate night shifts." Sergey shrugged.

"No one likes it, but what else can you do here?" Zhao Jianfei shrugged. "Quan Dang is out for recreation."

"This is not a pastime. They are very dangerous." The British liaison officer frowned. "In order not to be discovered, we will use the method of pre-amputation. This time, the latest level one tactical attack nuclear submarine under the Royal Navy is dispatched. , Smart-class nuclear submarine.

Although the surface of the Shrew class hull is also equipped with soundproof tiles that can isolate its own noise and reduce the enemy's active sonar echo, it is still not an opponent of the Zumwalt class destroyer. Therefore, we must try to avoid being discovered, diving deeply and silently, waiting for the ship to pass by. Guys, this is not a joke. "

"Don't worry, sir. My people look loose, but they are definitely afraid of death." Lin Rui shrugged. "The last way we die is to get sunk under the water in an iron pot. Now. So they know what to do."

The British commander smiled bitterly, "I hope. Once we get to the right position, we will release you from the torpedo tube. You must wear breathing equipment, wear your oxygen mask, and hang a small oxygen tank on your abdomen. Position, enter the torpedo tube in turn, lying on your side.

We will close the torpedo tube and begin to pressurize the tube. When the pressure is equal to the water pressure at the torpedo outlet, you can crawl to the torpedo tube outlet. Crawling in water-filled, dark and airtight narrow pipes is not only a test of escape technology, but also higher psychological requirements. You better be prepared. "

"God, I think Sergey will have no pressure on this. His only pressure is when he is lying on the girl. Just like last time..." Before Crazy Horse was finished, he was caught by Sergey. Put down, the two scuffled into a ball.

Lin Rui shrugged and said to the stunned British liaison officer, "You can ignore them. By the way, we are all familiar with these basic routines. For frogmen fighting underwater, we are not rookies. But Sergey may be a virgin. , So he may be more pressured to face girls."

The mercenaries burst into laughter.

"Okay, okay. Guys, can't you be a little bit demeanor, this is a British officer. Can you show your gentleman side?" Zhao Jianfei also came to join in the fun, but his British accent that deliberately pretended, It almost broke the British officer.

"It's okay, don't make trouble." Lin Rui smiled and waved his hand. "Excuse me, Mr. Captain, my people are used to keeping a more relaxed attitude before the action starts. I want to know if other tools are ready? "

"Tools?" The British stunned for a moment.

"Oh, I mean weapons or eating guys, whatever you think." Lin Rui gestured.

"All are ready. The short m4 and m16 you need, tactical grenades, melee pistols, remote explosives, thermite that can quickly melt iron plates. There are also underwater propellers, you know we can’t rely on them. The ship is too close. You can only release you from a long distance, and then you have to carry these weapons and equipment to complete an underwater assault." The British officer looked at them.

Lin Rui nodded, "Okay, brothers, you all heard what he said clearly. After going up, according to our original plan. Try to use the method of infiltration, infiltrate the ship, first control the cockpit and communication control room. Take down the person in charge on the ship and control the entire ship. This is the best way.

But if there is an accident, we must change the way. Trying to destroy the power system with explosives, the ship was forced to stop. Then control the combat weapons control room and don't let these **** fire missiles randomly. Try to fight them close, because they rely on this advanced ship. They are not our opponents for the close conflict that occurred on the ship. "

"According to intelligence, they should have hundreds of people." The British officer frowned. "I don't think their combat capabilities should be underestimated."

"I don't want to belittle them, but to be honest, these people are not fighters, they are just sailors. They may be able to operate computers proficiently and accurately launch missiles hundreds of kilometers away. But they may not have the guts to face-to-face gunfights with us at close range. "Lin Rui said indifferently, "A true soldier must have seen a lot of blood and death."

The British officer was speechless. It is true that modern warfare has become more and more distant from the battlefield. The emergence of long-range missiles and tactical drones has turned cruel combat into a computer game. You don't need to be persistent and brave, as long as you can press the button. This is a victory for technology, but it is a tragedy for soldiers.

The British officer looked at these bohemian mercenaries with a feeling of disgust in his heart. He didn't know what these tiger-wolf men would be like after boarding the ship, maybe it would be a very direct killing. These people seem to be unconstrained, but they can be the most thorough fighters.

Lin Rui checked his watch and said, "Now I will take a five-hour rest." His words were actually executed. These mercenaries may not be disciplined, but they absolutely obey orders. That's because people who don't obey orders can't live long on the battlefield.
