Chapter 2917: Heavy artillery raid

For the two hours Lin Rui requested, he actually waited a full four hours. The intelligence team hurriedly arrived.
Nightingale is a former agent of Mossad in Israel. He joined the Black Island Company not long ago for some special reasons. Lin Rui looked at her and said, "I asked for two hours, but you made me wait for four hours."
"Sorry, but the four hours you waited are worth the price." Nightingale took off her turban, revealing her black hair. "I heard that you want information about the warriors of the Holy Land, so I delayed for a while and summarized their recent activities. In addition, I received an important new piece of information."
"Talk about it." Lin Rui nodded.
"The Holy Land Warriors is an armed organization in Niger. In March of the previous year, it was formally listed as a terrorist organization by six countries in Africa, Europe and the United States. According to the information we have so far, they maintain the Free Army of Niger and several other terrorist organizations. Close ties, and both actions and opinions are more radical.
The leader Isaiah is an extreme fanatic. In the past six months, he has recruited soldiers everywhere, ready to fight. We found that he recently purchased some medicines for making low-level chemical weapons, and a large amount of weapons and ammunition. And through his upstream sellers, he locked his position. Also got a useful information. His recent large-scale arms purchases were all paid out of an overseas account in Euros. It is reported that it comes from overseas funders. "Nightingale whispered.
"Have you checked out who is providing him with funds?" Lin Rui frowned.
"I checked it, but it was a shell company registered in the Cayman Islands. The other party was obviously a veteran of evasive investigations, and we couldn't find anything." Nightingale replied, "But we brought out Isaiah from this. An intermediary who bought the arms through him found out the exact location of Isaiah."
"This is what I want, where is he?" Lin Rui frowned.
"The specific location is Ayoru in the Tillabéri region. In the previous few months, in the same area, several humanitarian people were kidnapped by a group of militants. It has been confirmed that it was the work of the Holy Land Warriors. But the ransom request from the Holy Land Warriors organization has not yet been received." Nightingale replied, "So we further investigated the kidnapped people and found that these humanitarians worked for the NGO Help. They were doctors and drugs. A scientist, and a few chemists."
"Chemist?" Lin Rui frowned. "It's no wonder that they will purchase chemical poison raw materials. Tell me about the situation in Tillabéri."
"Are you kidding? That place is arguably the most insecure area at the moment. Due to the large number of deadly attacks by the Holy Land Warriors on military strongholds and refugee camps, the Tilaberg area has become very unstable. March 12 3 policemen were killed in an attack in the district on the day. In October 2017, 12 Niger policemen were killed in an attack in the city of Ayora. The incident shocked the entire Niger at the time.
Nightingale replied.
"So they are hiding in the Tilaberg area, using the kidnapped hostages to create chemical poisons for them." Lin Rui frowned.
"Yes. The preparation of chemical poisons requires related equipment and electricity, and there is a chemical plant in the outskirts of Ayora." Nightingale whispered, "According to the information we collected, this chemical plant has been organized by the Holy Land Warriors. Occupied, they manufacture and produce chemical poisons there. Because our people found traces of some chemicals there, including sulfur dichloride and ethylene. 1"
"Map." Lin Rui beckoned to ask Sergey for an electronic map, and found the chemical plant that Nightingale said on it. "Can such a small-scale chemical plant produce poisonous gas?" Sergey looked at it. The map asked curiously.
"Mustard gas is not a chemical weapon with a very complicated production method. It is not difficult to develop mustard gas using chemical plant equipment and raw materials. If the required quantity is not large, even a small laboratory can achieve the goal." Nightingale He replied, "This is a very crude and low-level chemical weapon. This kind of technology even existed in World War I. Mustard gas is not a high-end chemical weapon. It is used with nerve agents such as VX or sarin. It's simply not comparable."
"But what can they do even if they make poisonous gas? Can they still release poisonous gas to deal with the US military?" Sergey frowned.
"So they bought another large-caliber mortar. The Soviet-style M-160 160mm mortar." Nightingale took out a few photos and said, "These are taken by our people on the adventure. There are five 160mm mortars. Mortars. The shells are homemade, not for the purpose of an explosion, but to disperse poison gas. I guess they will use dry powdered mustard gas like ordinary terrorists. The dispersal effect is achieved within a certain range."
"Very simple, but very practical." Lin Rui nodded. "Where are these large-caliber mortars?
"In the vicinity of that chemical plant, they were disguised as scrap machinery, covered with oil drapes. I guess they wanted to wait for the manufacturing to be successful before conducting a test fire." Nightingale replied. "If there are no problems, they will most likely attack when Admiral Dunford and his staff arrive."
"The Soviet standard M-160 160mm mortar can have a maximum range of seven to eight kilometers." Lin Rui frowned. "They can be deployed in advance by dragging and dragging them, and then proceed when Admiral Dunford arrives. Shelling. Even if the general was not killed on the spot, he could still use poison gas to cause damage."
"In this way, our delineated peripheral alert will be bypassed. And the mortar is a curved cannon, they can shoot out of the field of view. The center-of-gravity mortar of this model has a rate of fire of three rounds per minute. If five cannons fire rapidly at the same time, 15 cannonballs can be fired in one minute, plus the range of mustard poison gas, which can cause considerable damage." Yelena whispered.
"These desperadoes really dare to think and dare to do it." Lin Rui shook his head. "They don't want to think about the consequences if they kill the chief executive of the US Joint Chiefs of Staff."
"What these terrorists want is to shock the world. They don't care about the consequences, only what kind of shock their terrorist actions can bring." Nightingale replied, "The above is the information I have obtained, and of course there are more detailed ones. We will Afterwards, provide written information with exact information and relevant photos, as well as specific analysis of the information. I believe it is what you need.
