Chapter 1491: General's Bet

A week later, Lin Rui and others were invited to Colorado Springs. The U.S. Air Force Academy here is the highest academy of the U.S. Air Force. It is a famous military academy with the same reputation as the West Point Military Academy in American history. The school’s organizational structure is different in many ways. First, because it is a military academy, most of the school’s structure is similar to other air bases.
The school is a direct unit of the Air Force, so the principal is directly responsible to the Chief of Staff of the Air Force, and the principal himself is usually an active lieutenant general.
Lin Rui and others were taken to a meeting place. In addition to a few American generals who saw them, there were also a large number of civilian personnel.
"Well, now that everyone is here, I'll say a few words. Personally, I don't like this idea. The underground base of Cheyenne Mountain is very well-guarded. Even after the 9/11 incident, the U.S. President George Walker Bush’s military aides tried their best to persuade him to station at our Cheyenne Mountain base, which also shows that we have no problems with security." A chubby American general shook his head.
"General, you must understand that with the reopening of the Cheyenne Mountain base, its importance in the field of anti-terrorism is increasing day by day. First, this is the safest place for the US military to deal with nuclear threats and terrorist attacks, and second, it is possible to mobilize almost all US troops here. Military force, against terrorists." A man in a suit with glasses nodded.
"Of course, we never deny this. Every one of us here is proud of it. We are guarding the United States." The chubby general nodded.
"So this is also the place where terrorists most hope to strike. In the first half of this year alone, in the news we intercepted, there are many mentions of attacks on the Cheyenne Mountain base. Think about what this place means. It once meant It is the safest place in the United States. If the United States considers itself the safest place to be infiltrated, the impact will be far greater than anything else. This is not as simple as blowing up a few trash cans on the streets of New York.
This means to the terrorists that we have completely lost this war on terrorism, and even the United States has no real safe place. The senior management did not want to see this, so they demanded that the safety of the Cheyenne Mountain base must be fully guaranteed. Therefore, relevant safety assessment is very necessary. And this time the cooperation team was excellent. "The man wearing glasses nodded.
"Well, talk about your plan." The general nodded.
"We will organize a simulated attack. A small team will simulate terrorist infiltration raids on the Cheyenne Mountain surveillance base and complete the beheading of designated targets. There will be twelve professional assessment teams on this mission. Evaluate in multiple aspects. And make corresponding judgments to provide supplementary modifications to security. Plug all possible security loopholes." The person wearing glasses replied.
"Isn't it just an exercise? As for it to be so grand, then who is the target of this beheading?" The general smiled.
"The highest commander of the North American Air Defense Command is your General." Another general smiled.
"Are you kidding? Do you really think that if you just invite a group of people, you can pass through the heavily fortified underground base and behead me? This is impossible. This is the Cheyenne Mountain military base, not the camp of the Afghan militia. . My men are all U.S. soldiers who have received strict training, and they are not a mob." The slightly fat general shook his head.
"Sorry to interrupt." Lin Rui shook his head, "I think the general had better not be so sure, otherwise it would be embarrassing."
The fat American general turned his head and looked at Lin Rui, then turned to the man wearing glasses, "Is that him?"
"Yes, this is the captain of the simulated invader team, the person in charge of the Black Island Military Company in this mission." The middle-aged man wearing glasses nodded.
"So, you want to bring people, not only attack my base, but also kill me?" The general smiled at Lin Rui.
He smiled casually without showing too much contempt, but Lin Rui knew that he didn't believe that his team members could do this task. In the eyes of this American general, the guys from these military companies are the real mob.
Lin Rui nodded and smiled, "I can assure you that we will be able to do it."
"I also promise you that you will not be able to do it." The general shook his head.
"Then let's make a bet. I bet one dollar. We can invade smoothly." Lin Rui smiled.
"This bet is too light." The general shook his head. "How about betting on the gun on you?"
Lin Rui looked down at the gun in his holster and put the gun on the table.
The general picked it up and looked at it and nodded, "Good pistol, Colt m1911 pistol, navy commemorative edition. This is a good bet."
"No problem at all. You can take it now if you like it. Anyway, it won't be long before I can get it back from you. Oh, in the jargon of the invasion exercise, it should be on the corpse." Lin Rui smiled slightly.
"You seem very confident?" the general frowned.
"Yes, and I know that General Herbert is also very confident." Lin Rui smiled.
"Do you know me?" the general frowned.
"Since we accepted the task, we have been collecting relevant information, whether it is to the base or to the individual. We have compiled a whole book of your information, starting to understand you from your elementary school teacher’s comments on you. We know all your experiences , Personality characteristics, command style, and even your first girlfriend." Lin Rui smiled, "We are very dedicated."
"Oh, it, I hope you don't tell my wife." General Herbert shook his head. "It looks like your preparations are doing well, but that doesn't mean you won, right?"
"Of course not." Lin Rui shook his head, "but at least it's the beginning."
"Ha, I like this guy." The general laughed. "Let's see how you can do this."
Lin Rui turned around and said, "When will we start?"
"Tomorrow. I have to warn you that this operation is an exercise assessment mission. Therefore, no lethal weapons are allowed. You will get weapons, but the ammunition will be replaced with non-invasive flexible warheads. Of course, the same goes for the guards. The situation. After all, it’s an exercise mission, but it can’t really kill people. So when using cold weapons and unarmed combat, you should also remember that you can disable each other, but you can’t really kill any US military. Soldier." The man with glasses looked at them.
"Of course they are our employers. Killing the employers, who should I go for to get the money?" Lin Rui said slowly.
