Chapter 2023: Operation Rainy Night

It's getting late and the rain keeps falling.
The lights of the Philseck base became a little hazy in the rainy night. Accompanied by lightning and thunder rolling in the distance, the US military guarding the base was changing the guard while complaining about the ghostly weather.
In the grass outside the base, Lin Rui lay on the ground, coldly looking at the few US troops in the distance. Rain dripped from his camouflage raincoat and ran across his face. He didn't feel cold, because his face was also cold. He looked down at the military watch on his wrist. Because of the rain, the time for these US troops to change guards was delayed by nearly three minutes. But this does not affect the entire plan.
After the changing guard had left, Lin Rui made his own gesture in the darkness. Then he walked out of the grass and strode forward. He was wearing the standard camouflage of the U.S. Army, with his head down. So although the guard felt a little surprised, but not too alert. Just want to stop him and ask about the situation.
But before the two guards could speak, a person flashed out on each side of them, and the two guards were pushed to the ground, and then dragged quickly into the dark. Lin Rui stood at the door and did not continue forward, because he took a step forward and entered the scope of the surveillance video. Only after the two teammates solved the guard soldiers did he go around from the side, always keeping himself in the blind spot of camera surveillance.
The o2 team members hidden behind in the darkness also came out one after another, then quickly gathered together and entered the base. "Leave two people as guards, and the others act according to plan." Lin Rui's voice was conveyed to everyone in the team through wireless headphones in the heavy rain.
Sergey and the chief covered the sausage and walked on the way to the arsenal, "Don't be nervous, don't look back. We have very little chance of interrogation on this kind of rainy day. If you encounter the US military, don't talk, let me solve it. Sergey whispered.
They went smoothly along the way. Because of the rain and the standard raincoats of the US military they were wearing, ordinary sentry didn't bother to come out and question them.
But after only a short walk, they immediately ran into trouble. An armored vehicle drove past them and appeared to enter the arsenal in front of him.
"Damn it." Sergey cursed in a low voice. "The U.S. army has entered the arsenal. An armored vehicle should have a few trucks in front. We can't do it with so many people. The action may have to be delayed."
"But our time is tight." Sausage whispered.
"I know, but these armored vehicles should be to replenish training ammunition. They should leave after replenishing ammunition. I hope they can end soon." Sergey whispered. A few of them stopped outside the arsenal, waiting patiently for the American troops inside. Sergey’s prediction was correct. The US troops also received the exercise order to collect the ammunition needed for the exercise. Several people were carrying it in the rain. No one noticed Sergey and others.
"They can't go on like this. They can wait here, but we can't wait any longer. We'd better act now while they are busy." Sausage whispered, "They are receiving ammunition. According to intelligence, explosives and The engineering equipment should be in another warehouse. If we go around from behind, maybe they won't pay attention."
"Walking in front of them, can you still attract their attention? You are crazy." Sergey whispered.
"Now they are busy moving ammunition, maybe this is our opportunity. The custodian of the arsenal will also register the quantity, so they don’t care about us for a while, even if they look at us, they think we’re here to move. Yes." The chief also whispered.
"No, it's too risky." Sergey whispered, "Once exposed, our entire plan will be finished. Give me patience and wait."
The three of them concealed behind the vehicles outside the arsenal, waiting for the US troops to leave after receiving ammunition. Sergey checked the time on his watch from time to time. He was more nervous than anyone, and Lin Rui only had fifteen minutes left for him to deal with unexpected situations. Moreover, their rescue operations are one-by-one. If Sergey and others delay here for too long, the entire operation will be delayed. This will affect their normal rescue and evacuation after the rescue.
But the few US troops seemed to be unaware, and they were still joking and working slowly. When they left after completing the supply of ammunition, nearly twenty minutes had passed. Sergey, Sausage and others secretly withdrew under the fence of the ammunition depot, waiting for the warehouse personnel to leave, and then quickly overcame the fence and fell into the arsenal.
The warehouse was built high because of moisture-proof and easy handling. Sergey rushed forward and took out the unlocking tool. The traditional double-lock design is used on this heavy iron door. The design of this separated door lock is quite old-fashioned, but it can effectively prevent one person from opening the door alone. In other words, to enter the arsenal, two people must open the door at the same time. This is why Sergey needs help. He quickly opened the door lock and winked at the chief.
The chief nodded, walked to the other side of the door, and Sergey simultaneously twisted the door handle to open the door. Sergey did not rush in, but put the speculum on the helmet and observe through the speculum that reached into the door.
"How is it?" Sausage whispered.
Sergey pressed his mouth, dragged him away from the door, and said in a low voice, "There is a voice-activated alarm system and an infrared alarm device. They are all activated. I must try to turn them off. I will go in alone, and you will be on guard outside and wait until I give you a signal before going in."
Sausage took a deep breath and nodded, "About how long?"
"It's only a few minutes." Sergey whispered, and then squeezed in silently from the door.
This base has been established for some time, so this sound-activated alarm device and infrared alarm device are both old models. This made Sergey a little more comfortable, and he slowly opened his tools and began to destroy the alarm device. He must remain absolutely quiet, and even must keep his breathing smooth. Because this kind of sound-activated alarm is very sensitive, even the sound of walking footsteps is slightly louder. The collision of tools is even more impossible. Before the alarm is released, everything must be absolutely quiet.
Sergey was busy inside, and the sausage and chief outside were also worried. If anyone comes in again at this time, they will be all over.
