A Mercenary’s War

Chapter 1113 This Is Called Professionalism

Supplies are of course very important, especially when medicine is urgently needed. Gao Yang must find out how the prison supplies are obtained.

After asking, Gao Yang thought for a while and added: "What is your most urgent need? Should you airdrop whatever you ask for, or should you airdrop whatever you want?"

Sedev smiled bitterly and said: "When we make requests, the outside world will try their best to satisfy them, but we may not get what we want. The parachutes often fall outside the prison, and the success rate is very low. All supplies are very tight now, so we are actually in a situation where we can get whatever we drop by air."

Gao Yang thought for a moment and said in a deep voice: "I understand. It seems that important supplies need to be dispersed during the airdrop. Okay, what do you need?"

Sedef thought for a while and said in a deep voice: "That's just medicine. Only the medicine has been basically used up. The rest are conventional supplies. Everything was available during the airdrop. There is no need to specifically request it."

Gao Yang looked outside and nodded: "Okay, I understand. Thank you, Major. It's time for you to eat. After you have eaten, I would like to ask you to take me out for a walk to see the terrain here."

Sedef nodded and handed Gao Yang another biscuit. Gao Yang took it and said with a smile: "I'm not very hungry, this is enough."

Sedef was not polite and quickly finished the remaining half a pack of biscuits. He clapped his hands and said to Gao Yang, "General, let's go right now."

Gao Yang stood up and said loudly: "Those who have something to do stay, those who are injured also stay, and those who are fine will come with me to see the terrain."

Regardless of whether I can leave or not. Even if you only stay in Aleppo prison for a day or two, you have to understand the terrain. This is the minimum.

The few who were fine all stood up after Gao Yang. Sedev took the akm he had been carrying behind his back in his hand and nodded to Gao Yang. Said: "General, please follow me."

Prisons must have high walls. The walls of the Aleppo prison are very thick and high, and there are barbed wires on the walls. Relatively speaking. It is easier to defend than ordinary buildings.

The Aleppo prison has a large open space. In the north is a three-pointed star-shaped building, which is a cell for prisoners. The corner of the cell that extends slightly to the northeast is open on both sides, which is a place for prisoners to relax, and in the south of the prison. There are three buildings, which are the living areas of the prison guards. There is a large open space between the guards' living area and the cells. The helicopters that Gao Yang and the others used to make an emergency landing fell into the space between the living areas and the cells. on the ground.

There is no longer a single piece of glass in the entire Aleppo prison.

There were holes and craters made by shells everywhere.

Walking outside and looking at the terrain, Gao Yang felt that he wanted to airdrop into the prison. It should be very simple, because Aleppo is quite a big place, and it is not possible to drop airdrop supplies on the rebel positions. But considering the capabilities of the Syrian Air Force, Gao Yang did not say this in the end.

To the west of the prison is the village occupied by the rebels. Gao Yang and the others have been there before, and the fierce fighting at night was in the village to the west, and there is a road in the village that leads directly to the west gate of the prison.

The west gate of the prison was where the fiercest fighting with the rebels took place. However, the rebels never breached the prison gates and walls.

After walking around the prison, Gao Yang pointed to a watchtower inside the prison and said, "Can you go up and have a look?"

The watchtower is the highest point in the prison. Standing on the watchtower, you can basically see the entire prison, and you can also see outside the prison. It would definitely be useful if you could go to the watchtower and take a look.

Sedev looked troubled and said: "General, the rebels can directly attack the watchtower. They may shell the watchtower. You'd better not go up there. It's too dangerous."

Half of the roof of the watchtower has been blown off by shelling. It can be seen that it must have been shelled. However, if he is besieged in the prison, he will definitely participate in the war. Even if it is dangerous to go up, Gao Yang will definitely have to go and take a look. , if you don’t even dare to see the terrain clearly and still act like a shitty commander, you won’t know where to run for your life.

"It doesn't matter, let's go up and have a look, and we'll come down soon."

Sedev had no choice but to nod and said, "Okay, let's go take a look, but we have to leave as soon as possible."

There are people on the watchtower, and there are two of them.

After seeing the two sentries, Sedef said in a deep voice: "Is there any movement from the enemy?"

"Sir, the enemies in the west were in turmoil for a long time in the morning, but they have calmed down again now, and there is no movement."

Sedef nodded, and after passing the sentry's telescope, he first looked at the village to the west, and then said to Gao Yang, "They haven't pushed out the cannon, but we'd better leave as soon as possible."

Gao Yang was holding up his own telescope and looking, but Cui Bo failed to follow. Gao Yang took a few glances first and found a suitable place in the prison for a sniper position, and then looked for a suitable position for him to shoot. After getting the score, he said to Tommy: "Look, can you preset the position and impact point?"

Tommy looked at it and said: "There are too many places that can be used as positions, but I can look at the places where the enemy is most likely to appear and determine a few of the most common impact points. Then I will stay at the gun position, and you just need to If you tell me which coordinate to shoot, I will just shoot at that coordinate."

Gao Yang smiled and said, "Do you need a few shots first?"

Tommy shook his head and said: "The shells are very precious, keep them. I don't need test firing to adjust them. No, you should ask me whether their shells are Russian or self-produced."

Tommy's ability to learn new languages ​​is weaker as he gets older. Unlike young people like Gao Yang, Frye, and Cuibo, they can still learn quickly given the language environment.

Gao Yang said to Sedef: "You have mortars here, right? What calibers are they in? Where are the shells produced?"

Sedev said solemnly: "We have four 60mm mortars and one 82mm mortar, but the 82mm mortar is out of shells, and there are still 47 rounds of 60mm shells. They are all Made in Russia.”

Gao Yang nodded, smiled at Tommy and said, "Don't worry, they are all made in Russia, there are no shells printed in Arabic."

Tommy breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Then there is no need for test firing. Russian artillery shells have relatively stable trajectories. I know that in my heart, but I am not sure about the shells with Arabic characters printed on them. God knows where they will land."

Gao Yang smiled and continued to Sedef: "So what kind of artillery do the rebels have over there?"

After thinking for a while, Sedev shook his head and said: "The rebels don't have any decent artillery. They are all homemade artillery, which is very powerful, but may not be accurate. The most commonly used ones are small-caliber direct-fire artillery and mortars." Cannons, there are no large-caliber barrel artillery."

Gao Yang and Sedev were talking, and Tommy took out a piece of paper and was drawing a sketch, marking out the gun positions he imagined and the preset impact points. However, this sketch was not drawn for him, but for Gao Yang. use.

After looking at the terrain, Gao Yang had a mental map and asked Sedef, "How are the troops arranged?"

"General, guards are on duty at key points, and sentries and firepower points are arranged on the observation towers on the walls. Our walls are double-layered, with a three-meter interval between the inner and outer walls, and there are Lookout posts, each lookout post is now manned by three people, and most of the personnel stay inside the prison building. If the enemy attacks, they will go to the roof to shoot at the enemy."

Sedev's approach was quite satisfactory, and Gao Yang had the same arrangement when he came to command. There was nothing to add. After looking at it again, Gao Yang waved his hand and said, "Okay, let's go down."

As he was walking down from the watchtower, Gao Yang's phone rang. He looked at the phone and saw that the call was from Dani.

Gao Yang quickly connected the phone. After connecting the phone, Dani hurriedly said: "General, be ready to evacuate. A helicopter will pick you up today."

Gao Yang was surprised and happy at the same time. After raising his voice in surprise, he said loudly: "So fast?"

"Yes, there are very few helicopters lost at the airport in Aleppo. Aleppo originally said that it could not send helicopters to pick you out because the risk was too high, but the president personally gave the order and demanded that you must be picked out. So a helicopter will be arranged to pick you up today! But are you sure you want to leave by helicopter? Aleppo said it is too dangerous. Landing and takeoff are equally dangerous, and it is very likely to be shot down."

Gao Yang just hesitated for a moment and then said firmly: "I know the risk is not small, but it doesn't matter. We'd better leave as soon as possible."

"Okay, then you just need to be ready to leave. The helicopter will choose to enter when the rebels are praying at noon. If the entry fails or something unexpected happens, it may enter again during the evening worship time. I haven't done that yet. What about the communication frequency of the helicopter? When I receive the notification, I will inform you in advance how to communicate with the helicopter."

"Okay, thank you, I'm waiting for your good news."

After hanging up the phone, Gao Yang said to Sedef with some apology: "If nothing else happens, we may leave soon. Thank you very much for your help. I'm sorry that I couldn't help you." ."

Sedef laughed and said: "Why didn't you help us? You killed many rebels. This is the greatest help to us. General, I wish you a smooth evacuation."

After Gao Yang finished speaking, Tommy gave the sketch he had drawn to Gao Yang and said in a deep voice: "Here, the most likely positions of several enemies are marked. If artillery support is needed, just report the numbers. "

Gao Yang glanced at it, put it away, and then said to Tommy: "Okay, I will remember it clearly."

Even though they have to evacuate, Gao Yang and his team's observation of the terrain is not useless. Even if they only stay for an hour, they must be prepared. This is called professionalism. (To be continued)
