Chapter 480 Returning Carnage
There are interceptions in front, pursuers behind, planes in the sky will arrive in a short time, and there is no place to hide. This is going to end.
After quickly going over the situation he was about to face in his mind, Gao Yang immediately came to the conclusion that he must not go any further. The plane was approaching in an instant, and there was no way the convoy could hide before being attacked by the plane.
Knight's expression finally changed. No matter how powerful the Angel Mercenary Group was, they were still human beings, not supermen wearing underwear. They were at an absolute disadvantage in numbers and lost the possibility of a sudden attack. Going forward was simply seeking death, even if We can forcefully break through the blockade, but it's hard to say how many people can survive.
"Stop the car, turn around, and go back!"
In desperation, Gao Yang opened his mouth and shouted.
Knight said solemnly: "Reason!"
"There are a lot of cars going into the city. This road has not been blocked yet. The police and military are not moving so fast. We are crossing most of the city from south to north. Everyone knows that we want to break out to the north. Their attention We are all in the north, and since Bogotá is not completely blocked, we have the opportunity to change directions to avoid the pursuers and separate. The convoy is too conspicuous, so slow down and follow the traffic, at least the planes in the sky cannot distinguish it."
Gao Yang said it briefly, but Knight understood what he meant. It was impossible to continue moving forward and evacuate as planned. He had to survive in death and take the initiative to go into the city. Maybe he could escape. The most important thing was, Even if they are discovered after entering the city, at least they will not be attacked by the air.
Knight just pondered for a moment, and then said on the intercom: "Park the car, turn around and go to the city. Spread out. Slow down. Don't gather in a convoy, try to blend into the traffic flow, and throw away the pickup truck with obvious characteristics, Crowe, Quickly detect police blockades and find a safe route."
The car at the front made a sharp turn and drove into the city, and the two pickup trucks stopped. The people in the car dispersed and got out of the car and got into the car. The convoy turned a corner on the road one after another and began to move towards Bogota, which they had just emerged from.
The convoy of more than 20 vehicles spread out for three to four kilometers.
The vehicles were dispersed, and if they were blocked again, it would be difficult to attack with force, so the only hope was not to be discovered.
The car Gao Yang was sitting in turned around and started walking towards the city. The speed of the car dropped from more than 120 kilometers per hour to only more than 70 kilometers per hour.
Highway 50 is a very busy road, and cars heading out of the city have been affected. There is very little traffic, but it is not completely cut off. There are still vehicles merging onto Route 50 from various side roads, but the traffic flow heading into the city is very large, with vehicles of all sizes coming in an endless stream.
Not long after he started walking towards the city, Gao Yang heard a strong roar passing above his head. Gao Yang lowered his head and looked out of the rear window, only to see two ultra-low-altitude combat jets. butt.
"Phantom, searching for us along Route 50."
After Gao Yang said softly, he couldn't help but take a breath in his heart. If they were still moving along the original route, they would have been hit by machine guns or even bombs at this moment.
A trace of luck appeared on Knight's face. After turning his head and looking back, he took a breath and said, "Rongyang, your mind is moving very fast."
After saying something calmly, Knight said on the intercom again: "Clo, is there any news?"
"Report, I just received news that the areas where fighting has taken place in the city of Bogotá are now isolated by a large number of police officers. However, the police are severely short of manpower and have only set up roadblocks at major intersections near several battlefields. They cannot To blockade the whole process, even if the army is mobilized, it is impossible to blockade the entire city of Bogota in a short period of time. In addition, Bogotá’s top brass does not seem to have the intention to block the entire process.”
The look on Knight's face finally relaxed a little, and he said softly: "Very good, continue to pay attention to the trends in the city, find a safe route, and also look for a suitable camp to capture."
While Knight was talking, Gao Yang, who had been looking out from the front window with his head lowered, whispered: "Look, there is another plane. Why is it a propeller plane?"
Gao Yang saw four planes flying over along Highway 50. However, the speed of these four planes was much slower than the Phantom 5 that had just passed by, and their sound was much quieter. They turned out to be old-fashioned propeller planes.
After Knight lowered his head and glanced down, he whispered: "Super Tucano, a two-seater trainer aircraft produced in Brazil. It is very useful after being converted into an attack aircraft. It is very effective in Colombia's fight against drug traffickers and guerrillas. It is much easier to use than the Mirage 5. This is what I am worried about. Although this aircraft is propeller-driven, it has a bomb load of one and a half tons. It can carry anything, and its flying speed is slow. It will not fly like the Mirage 5. However, this can be hit slowly on our heads."
As soon as Knight explained, Gao Yang remembered that there are only a few countries in the world that still use propeller aircraft as their main fighter jets or attack aircraft, and Colombia is one of them. He has been deeply affected by this. Yes, I just didn’t expect to meet him at the moment.
Although the Super Tucano is a propeller aircraft, it does not lag behind at all. The engine is powerful, making the external weight reach 1550 kilograms. There are two 12.7 mm fixed machine guns in the wings. Cannon pods, rocket nests, and free-fall bombs can be optionally installed. , cluster bombs, laser-guided bombs, anti-tank missiles, and even infrared combat air-to-air missiles can be installed, which can not only carry out ground attacks but also be used in air combat.
Colombia is an air force that has made great use of the Super Tucano, and its record is quite good. It will definitely not be able to compete with the modern air forces of other countries, but it is more than enough for anti-terrorism and anti-guerrilla warfare.
For attacking guerrillas who lack air defense weapons, the biggest advantage of the Super Tucano is that it is a propeller aircraft. The stall speed of the Super Tucano is only 148 kilometers per hour. If it flies slowly, it can allow the pilot to search very calmly. and identify targets.
Colombia's air force is not very powerful. The main fighters are the Mirage 5 and Super Tucano. When the Mirage 5 undertakes the task of ground attack, it is far less flexible than the Super Tucano at low altitudes.
The Mirage 5 flies fast and flies over the battlefield. The pilot does not have enough time to identify and attack, but the Super Tucano can attack slowly and leisurely. There is no need to worry about being hit from the ground anyway. You can pour powerful firepower on the ground as much as you want.
Gao Yang's deep impression of the Super Tucano mainly came from his knowledge that the US military had ordered twenty Super Tucanos from Brazil, intending to use them on the battlefield in Afghanistan.
The U.S. military certainly has no shortage of aircraft, but the characteristics of the Super Tucano are very suitable for low-intensity battlefields like Afghanistan that require long-term patrols.
The Super Tucano has a transition range of 2,855 kilometers, a battery life of 8 hours and 40 minutes, and a cruising speed of 520 kilometers per hour. This means that the Super Tucano can cruise and monitor at low speeds over the battlefield for a long time. Once received Call, and you can immediately rush to the battlefield to provide support.
Watching four Super Tucanos passing overhead from the rear window, Gao Yang and Knight made a gesture of wiping sweat at the same time. It would have been two minutes later to turn around and be overtaken by the Super Tucanos. , and then began to attack the head non-stop, it is really scary to think about it.
If the Super Tucano attacks the convoy, it is no exaggeration to say that at least half of the people will be killed or injured.
Watching the super toucan fly far back, Knight let out a sigh of relief and said: "I didn't even think of running to the city, Ram. I'm glad that I listened to your idea. Now we have mixed up." When I got into traffic, I felt that even if I was attacked again, at least it wouldn't be from the air."
"The report, the intelligence source suggested that after we drove into the city, we entered Street C180, then turned right into Street C172, then turned onto the street and headed south until we exited the city from the south and entered Highway 40. According to reliable intelligence, the street was not blocked. , and there is no order to block Highway 40."
Knight immediately said: "Follow this route."
After finishing speaking, Knight finally put a smile on his face and said to Gao Yang: "It seems that we are going to the southern rainforest again, just in a different direction, but the situation seems to have become much simpler. I hope we can Leave before they react."
After Gao Yang thought about it for a while, he said in a deep voice: "Is there any way to continuously attract their attention to the north? In this case, we will have more time to escape."
After Knight thought for a moment, he immediately smiled and said: "Cunning guy, but I do have a solution here."
After finishing speaking, Knight immediately said on the walkie-talkie: "Looking for a guerrilla group near Route 50. They must be strong enough to publish information in their name and be responsible for everything that happens in Bogotá. Actions be quick."
Gao Yang said puzzledly: "With our current situation, how can we release news to the outside world? Oh, I understand. Do you have someone else in Bogotá? You have a dedicated person responsible for collecting intelligence and releasing news, right?"
Knight smiled slightly and said: "Because you came up with a good idea, I'll let you learn how to do it. Remember, as a mercenary, no matter where you are, remember to leave one person outside, even if you are surrounded, There are also people who can collect intelligence and arrange many things, but of course, this person must be capable enough.”
Knight said it was simple, but after Gao Yang thought about it carefully, he felt that it was quite difficult to achieve this. At least if Downey Jr. were to play this role, he would not be qualified.
Gao Yang wanted to ask Knight carefully what kind of work his peripheral person was mainly responsible for and how he worked, but now was definitely not a good time to ask.
"Report, Jaguar troops found, their convoy just passed us."
After hearing the message from the car ahead of him through his earphones, Gao Yang soon saw a convoy of military vehicles passing them head-on, including trucks, jeeps, and wheeled armored vehicles. Gao Yang After counting, there must be more than forty vehicles of all kinds. (To be continued...)
