Chapter 892 - 401: Aerial Infiltration

Chapter 892: Chapter 401: Aerial Infiltration

Facing the dilemma of how to break into the village where the extremists were located, everyone argued endlessly, finally resorting to seeking answers from Lei Wanshan.

However, Lei Wanshan on the television screen in the conference room showed no intention of speaking.

"I think, what we need first is a high-precision satellite map."

Just as the room fell into a brief silence, someone abruptly spoke.

Everyone turned to look, and it was Gu Ji.

He gazed at the ordinary satellite map provided by Yi Security Department on the computer screen and spoke in a deep voice: "The precision of this map is too poor; you can’t discern the village’s shape or the surrounding terrain’s fluctuations, making it difficult to formulate a precise action plan. Mr. Lei, we need support from the national satellite system!"

Before Lei Wanshan could speak, Li Ruilin, who had been seated all along, picked up the phone, "Get in touch with the Satellite Navigation System Management Office immediately."

Such a simple sentence represented the support that only top superpowers could possess.

Currently, only three countries have mature satellite navigation systems in the world:

The United States’ GPS Global Positioning System, Russia’s GLONASS satellite system, and Xia Kingdom’s BDS Beidou Satellite System.

Within moments, Zhao Hua’s computer gained access to the national satellite system’s high-precision map.

As the mouse zoomed in repeatedly, not only the desert slopes’ elevations but even the number of houses in the village were clearly visible, just short of seeing people’s figures!

"This Beidou Satellite System is just amazing!"

Gao Bo was witnessing high-precision satellite reconnaissance for the first time.

It’s important to note that this isn’t from an unmanned reconnaissance plane but from images directly captured by a low-altitude satellite.

"The map is here, share your thoughts!"

Li Ruilin’s calm and deep voice was transmitted from the television screen.

Gong Qingyong glanced around, seeing that even Lei Wanshan’s expression was composed, as though neither were in any haste.

He suddenly realized they’ve both been waiting for Gu Ji’s input.

Although he had long known about Gu Ji’s remarkable prowess, he hadn’t expected Li Ruilin to regard him so highly.

Clearly, this was intentionally designed to cultivate Gu Ji’s tactical thinking and command skills.

Faced with Li Ruilin’s challenge, Gu Ji showed no signs of intimidation.

"There are three plans: First, use helicopters to circle from the southwest; the terrain there is higher, so as long as we’re not too close, the village’s guard posts won’t detect us. We can choose to rappel down at the mountain base, then walk over the summit to raid the village. The advantage of this plan is its speed, taking only half an hour to fly from downtown Tehran to the target point, but the downside is the long walking distance, consuming much physical energy."

"Oh? What about the other two plans?"

Li Ruilin raised his eyebrows.

Gu Ji glanced at his wrist before continuing:

"The second plan is to drive; it’s now three o’clock in the afternoon, and it would take about four hours to circle from Tehran’s southwest. After dark, we’d drive with headlights off. Since the car engine noise is much less than that of a helicopter, we could drive to mid-mountain and then proceed on foot!"

The disadvantage of the second plan is naturally its slowness.

As for the last plan, it combines the two.

But it would require at least two medium helicopters or one heavy transport helicopter to airdrop two large SUVs for tactical deployment.

Such a "grandiose" logistical support depends on whether Iran is willing to cooperate.

"In the end, you want to conduct a night operation."

Lei Wanshan is indeed Wu Province’s finest tactical commander, discerning Gu Ji’s intentions at a glance.

Gu Ji nodded.

"Correct. Based on interrogation information from Yi Security Department, Shalam has deployed at least 25 people in the village, possibly more. In terms of numbers and firepower, we don’t have the upper hand, so we can only create an information gap, leveraging night operations to diminish enemy visibility and seize the initiative!"

Even if the extremists are terrifying, their individual equipment struggles to match that of the "regular army."

A single night-vision device is enough to provide Gu Ji with a visual advantage.

"Alright, execute the third plan, Mr. Qu. It’s up to you now!"

"Rest assured, we will do our utmost to meet your needs!"

Sitting beside him, the Director of the Foreign Affairs Office, Qu Ya, immediately took out his phone, calling the embassy in Iran, preparing to employ diplomatic measures.

The answer soon came: Iran agreed!

"Damn! This is awesome; we’ve never carried out an aerial rappelling mission in this lifetime, and our previous training is finally useful!"

Gao Bo, upon hearing they were really going to undertake a helicopter mission, enthusiastically hugged Gu Ji and Wu Kang, bursting with excitement.

It wasn’t just him.

Even Zhou Yang, Liu Weijun, and several other members of Squad Two couldn’t help but grin widely.

After all, except for a few regions within our country that have cultivated multi-terrain forces, the majority of special police have only operated in urban environments.

Even Gu Ji and his peers, selected after training in Jinbang, only practiced rappelling specifically.

Providing them with weapons and equipment would be the Iranian Revolutionary Guard.

At this level of anti-terrorism operations, regular items from Savama or the Iran police department can no longer suffice.

Hence, under Miliburn’s arrangement, Gu Ji and the others uniformly boarded a cargo truck to head to the closest Iranian Revolutionary Guard military base in Tehran.

This time, he specially took the Sting missile.
