Chapter 17 Anti-Raid

In the outskirts of Medellin, deep in a lush virgin forest. In this supposedly inaccessible area, a group of busy figures are active. This is one of the drug manufacturing factories of the Medellin Group. Because of its concealment, it escaped the last government clearance operation. And it was this settlement that doubled the price of cocaine in North America. Moreover, some small suppliers who are coveting are coveting this suddenly vacated market. The once powerful Medellin Group has been targeted by the government and has no time to clone. Those ambitious people who have been suppressed can no longer sit still.

The Colombian police are not idle at the moment either, because the Colombian government, which was already in the upper hand, was slapped severely once again because of the crazy retaliation at the Ministry of Justice building last time. Deputy Minister of Justice Lara was killed on the spot, and the abducted judge and military police were sentenced to tie. Escobar and his brazen assertions of power in the country. The Colombian Ministry of Justice hopes to join forces with the U.S. government to launch a successful raid this time to further attack the strength of the Medellin Group led by Escobar.

The plan of the Ministry of Justice is very simple, that is to fundamentally and completely destroy the production capacity of the Medellin Group. So in the recent period, the Colombian military and police, with the help of the United States, began to use armed helicopters to conduct a carpet search of drug factories hidden under the dense jungle.

Listening to the sound of helicopter propellers coming from a distance, Escobar's men felt a burst of excitement. Because they have a great gift for Americans in their hands.

"Look over there, there seems to be a simple shed under the tree, we'd better take a look!" The observer sitting on the co-pilot of the plane said, pointing to a place leaking out of the ground on the left front.

"Received!" After the pilot replied, he began to lower the altitude of the plane and flew in the direction pointed by the observer just now.

When the altitude of the plane dropped to about 300 meters, the military police on the plane finally saw traces of human activities. There were blue buckets piled up in the clearing among the trees, but it was still impossible to tell whether it was a drug factory or not based on these alone.

"Could it be lower, I'm still not sure if this is a drug factory or a lumberjack's hut!" The observer tried his best to look through the gaps between the trees with binoculars, but most of his sight was blocked.

At this moment, Escobar's men were already planning to do something. A drug dealer who had long been hiding on the top of the tree locked the target with the launcher of the Stinger missile, and then detained the launching flight without hesitation.

"Whoosh!" The Stinger missile rushed towards the armed helicopter like a fire dragon, but in a few seconds, the helicopter that was still in the sky instantly turned into a big fireball. After a burst of explosion, the fireball began to hit the ground.

...

An hour later, both the Ministry of Justice and the Ministry of National Defense of Colombia received battle reports from the front that a helicopter gunship of an American friendly force was shot down by drug traffickers, and all crew members were killed. As for what kind of weapon was shot down, the reason is still unknown.

Just when the Colombian Ministry of Justice thought it was just an accidental incident, another piece of news soon surprised them even more. An A-10 attack plane that was attacking the drug traffickers found was accidentally shot down again. Before the shooting down, it was known from the conversation between the pilot and the command that the drug traffickers had anti-aircraft missiles in their hands. The plane fell. Has been chased by missiles before.

"Hurry up and let all the planes return as soon as possible, there is a new situation on the drug dealer's side!"

"MD, intelligence agencies are all idiots, don't they know that drug dealers have anti-aircraft missiles?"

"Send the ground troops quickly, and don't let the pilots sent by the United States fall into the hands of drug dealers!"

...

Under the sudden change, the headquarters of the United States-Columbia joint operation has fallen into chaos. The follow-up armed operations that were originally planned could only be stopped at this point. Because a US pilot was killed in this operation, the US was extremely angry about it.

The Colombian government quickly dispatched a ground search team at a risk, because the crash site is in a mountainous area and the roads are not smooth. And drug dealers have anti-aircraft missiles in their hands, so this time the search force began to face even greater troubles.

Relying on the favorable terrain, the drug dealers quickly fought against the search forces of the Colombian government army. The government army took more than a dozen lives before desperately snatching back the bodies of the pilots of the two crashed planes.

No one knows exactly what happened, or why the drug dealers had anti-aircraft missiles. It took a lot of effort for government forces to control the jungle around the crash site. In order to find out the truth, the United States quickly dispatched experts from the mainland to analyze the reason why the plane was shot down, and the conclusions reached made the American intelligence organization feel unbelievable and unbelievable.

According to intelligence, the anti-aircraft missiles used by the two downed planes were all individual anti-aircraft missiles, and they were produced by different countries. The missile that shot down the helicopter was a Stinger missile of the US military, and the A-10 attacking missile was shot down. The missile on the plane is the Sam-16 anti-aircraft missile from the Soviet Union, code-named Needle-1 in the Soviet Union, and hand drill in NATO.

The fact that the Medellin Group was able to obtain the main individual anti-aircraft missiles of the two camps of the United States and the Soviet Union made it unimaginable for the US Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) and the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) involved in this operation. Could it be that the Medellin Group bought needle missiles from the Cubans? So what about the stinger?

The CIA has always boasted that it knows the backyard of the United States like the backyard of the United States, but this time, it has no way to track down the anti-aircraft missiles that have flowed into the hands of drug dealers. Some gangs in the United States may get Stinger missiles, but who is it?

Just when the Americans were still confused by the sudden increase in military strength of the Medellin Group, Escobar had already begun to celebrate the hard-won victory with his men.

Escobar said with emotion in his heart: "Nicolas is really a reliable partner. As long as you need it, you can even get missiles for you. What else can these Russians not do! Now let's see who is called Valentin is amazing, if he can get tanks and armored vehicles, I will turn my drug dealers into an army in the future, I have plenty of money, even the Colombian government army will not be my opponent by then!"

Escobar looked at the only 4 missiles left, and suddenly felt a little regretful, why didn't he order more arms from Valentin?
