Chapter 1613 emergency passage
After two rounds of shelling and one air strike, the attack paused. Judging from the satellite images, the base was completely dead, with no trace of any living people. Could it be that the underground fortifications were directly destroyed by bombs?
Xiao Yang didn't believe it and continued to wait. After more than ten minutes, there was still no movement, so he felt that something was wrong.
Logically speaking, the underground fortifications built by Hydra will not be destroyed so easily. Now that the attack has stopped and there are no people on the ground, shouldn't it be the best time to escape? If the underground fortifications are not affected, this time
, they should be out.
"I feel something is wrong." Aman said thoughtfully.
Xiao Yang nodded, "I also feel something is wrong. According to normal circumstances, if they find that there are no people on the ground, they should run away. Could it be that the entrance and exit have been blown up and they can't get out?"
"It is possible, but I estimate it is very small. If we build such an underground fortification, will there be only one exit? What we found is definitely just one of the exits..." At this point, Aman thought of something and stopped.
Come down.
When Xiao Yang heard what he said, he also thought of a possibility.
"The emergency exit may not be near here at all." The two looked at each other and said at the same time.
"That's right, it's impossible not to consider that they would encounter a situation like today when they were building it. It is estimated that the emergency exit is a few kilometers away." Xiao Yang said with a smile.
"That's right, I feel good about it."
The two people immediately asked Mi Qilin to mobilize the satellite and began to search the surrounding area.
This is just the periphery of the Sahara Desert. The geology is semi-sandy on the surface, but the underground is still hard. It is not difficult to build underground passages, and there are several kilometers of underground passages. On the border between Mexico and the United States, a gang has dug a nearly ten-year-long tunnel.
Kilometers of underground passages, where small vehicles can pass, are used for drug trafficking and smuggling.
A gangster can build such a big project, let alone Hydra?
Before, they had only subconsciously focused on the present moment without thinking much about it.
Mi Qilin controlled the satellite to immediately conduct reconnaissance of the surrounding area several kilometers away. After detecting that there were no problems in several aspects, they originally thought that this idea was wrong, but just when they thought this way, something happened.
After the reconnaissance of one location in the southwest was completed, the satellite investigated another location. Unexpectedly, a car and two people next to it appeared in the picture. The two people were walking back and forth, as if they were waiting for something.
"Hermes probably didn't send anyone to this location, right?" Xiao Yang turned his head and asked Aman.
Aman shook his head, "Anyway, he didn't tell us. I don't know if he was sent secretly by them."
It was such a no-man's land, it was at this time, and it was less than three kilometers away from the incident site. It didn't take a second thought to know that these two people could never be ordinary people.
Xiao Yang said to Aman: "Ask Addis and others to send out drones for investigation, and I will contact Hermes immediately to ask."
"good."
The two of them split up, and Xiao Yang immediately dialed Hermes's phone. There was no satellite on Hermes' side, and he also wanted to know the situation at the scene. As soon as the call was connected, he asked if there was any movement over there.
"There was no movement at the target location, but we found two unknown persons about three kilometers southwest of the target location. Have you sent anyone there?"
"No." Hamis replied simply, "I asked all the people to meet with your people first and then arrange them. All the people there are definitely not my people."
"Then these two people must have a problem." Xiao Yang smiled, and then told his and Aman's guesses.
Whether it is the war in Afghanistan or the war in Iraq, those al-Qaeda elements in the mountainous areas of the two countries often use tunnels to fight against the encirclement and suppression of the American army, which can be said to have caused the American army to suffer a lot. Hamis still remembers this, but here is
He had never thought of the desert before. After Xiao Yang said this, he was basically certain of this fact.
"Just keep an eye on them. The artillery can fire at any time. As soon as they find them, they will immediately provide the coordinates and let the artillery fire."
With such a solid backing, what else can I say?
Xiao Yang agreed immediately and hung up the phone.
After receiving the news, Addis immediately launched the drone into the air. The drone they used was bought in the domestic civilian market. They just replaced it with a clearer camera after buying it, so that they can get a clear picture at night.
, the straight-line distance is three kilometers, but as long as the drone reaches a certain height, it doesn't need to fly that far at all.
Put it out for about a minute, before the satellite
The two people who appeared appeared in front of the camera.
Seeing this scene, Mi Qilin immediately controlled the satellite to leave and once again investigated the remaining unexplored directions.
However, the moment he left the screen, Addis called on the channel: "There is a situation."
His voice immediately drew everyone's attention back again.
Under the infrared camera lens of the drone, a person appeared again where there were only two people. Seeing this person, Xiao Yang and others knew that there was really an exit from the base. Otherwise, how did this person appear?
?
It can't appear out of thin air.
"Can the camera be zoomed in any closer?" Xiao Yang picked up the intercom and asked.
"Okay." Addis replied immediately, and at the same time, the screen immediately changed.
The camera zoomed in and the picture became clearer, but even so, everyone still couldn't see the exit on the ground. Xiao Yang picked up the intercom again and asked, "Can the height be lowered a little further?"
This time Addis's answer was no, "No, if it goes any lower, it may be exposed."
After all, it is a civilian-level drone, and it is not suitable for some environments. Seeing this, Xiao Yang did not ask for it anymore, "Forget it, just keep an eye on it. If this is an emergency exit, someone else should come out soon. First,
Mark the coordinates, and if multiple people are found, immediately contact the artillery for artillery strikes."
"clear."
Underground passages are different from underground fortifications. They are generally not dug too deep. Compared with underground fortifications, they are easier to destroy. It is very likely that a large section of them will collapse if a shell hits them. Think about what would happen if the people in the underground base were to do this.
If they are concentrated in the passage at all times, that round of artillery fire will be interesting.
The three people in the camera were talking about something. Within a few dozen seconds, the person who appeared before turned back and quickly disappeared.
"Well, it seems that the entrance to the passage is right in front of the two people before."
It's a pity that the drone's picture was not clear enough, so they could not see the situation at the entrance of the passage. However, Xiao Yang didn't care about it at this time and reminded Addis, "Someone may be coming out. Have the coordinates been confirmed?"
"It has been confirmed and sent to the artillery. It can be attacked at any time."
