Chapter 3286: high risk

"But judging from this person's resume, he is definitely not a good crop. Also good at concealment, how can we find him." Crazy Horse looked at the information.
Lin Rui nodded, "Yes, his main targets are foreign targets, but he does not frequently attack the local people. This is very different from other African extremist organizations such as Boko Haram in Nigeria. They adopt the principle of'based on the local'. The locals are the leaders, mainly recruiting local fighters and marrying local women.
They firmly believe that French, American or UN personnel will leave or be driven away sooner or later, and eventually a unified country can be achieved. This allows him to have a certain prestige in the local area, and can also get enough cover. The many beheading operations of the US military have all failed for this reason. After being the target of assassination many times, he also learned more cunning. In order to avoid being tracked, he does not use cellphones and other radios to communicate, but relies on paper to transmit commands.
The Americans intercepted his messenger several times, and analyzed from the paper he used, he was hiding in Mali or Libya. Then the CIA further found several of his hiding places. They think this Mr. Marlboro is now hiding in a village on the border between Mali and Libya. He gave orders by passing notes. The messenger rides on vehicles or even mules and horses, or the carrier pigeon transmits commands to avoid wireless signal tracking. "
"This guy is smart enough." Sausage nodded.
"Not only smart, but also dangerous. The Jihadist Alliance is planning a major event. At present, in response to the anti-terrorism actions of African countries, they are striving to open up the Mali Corridor, colluding with violent terrorist organizations in North Africa, West Africa, and East Africa, trying to connect North Africa. Extreme forces, with the Nigerian terrorist organization Boko Haram in the south, and the extremist organizations in Sudan, Somalia and Eritrea in the east, linking and responding to create an arc of terrorism in Africa.
And this Mr. Marlboro is the vanguard and a key figure. "Lin Rui nodded.
"Well, when shall we do it?" Sausage asked.
"Don't rush, wait for further information. First, we must declare that this operation is very dangerous. We have to enter an area without any backup, and there are terrorists everywhere." Lin Rui shook his head, "If there is no intelligence support, We don’t even want to complete this task. And after completion, our retreat is also a problem. This group of terrorists are armed with automatic weapons, bazookas, individual missiles, and even multiple rocket launchers. They even attacked the peacekeeping infantry in Mali. Battalion, beat all those well-armed blue helmets."
"We are just going in and killing people, and we are not going to fight them head-on." Scarface shrugged.
"Speaking of the idea. But because of this, we need to rely on the accuracy and timeliness of intelligence. In these areas, any problem in any one aspect can lead to a complete failure of our actions." Lin Rui nodded, we need enough And then formulate action plans based on the intelligence. "
"It makes sense. I have never believed in American intelligence." Sergey shook his head. "They usually send out drones and take a few pictures of the target, even if it's intelligence. And they also like flowers. Money buys intelligence from the locals. This kind of informal intelligence source usually leads to serious intelligence inaccuracies."
"So this time, I called Mr. K directly. I need him to absolutely guarantee the authenticity and validity of the intelligence. I need him to send a special intelligence team to be responsible for all the intelligence collection of our operation. Otherwise, this one Let's not talk about the task." Lin Rui nodded.
"Did he agree?" Sergey asked.
"It has been agreed. They have set up a special intelligence team and should now integrate all intelligence resources. During our entire operation, they will be responsible for intelligence guidance throughout the whole process." Lin Rui nodded.
"Mr. K, an old fellow, would actually agree to your request?" Sergey smiled.
"There is no other way. They refused to cooperate with the French army because they refused to share the information they had released. If I ask them to refuse again, it is really impossible to justify." Lin Rui stood up and took a picture. He clapped his hands and said, "Read all of these materials. After a while, more information will be sent. We will discuss the details at that time."
By the afternoon, all the intelligence of the US military was in place. According to intelligence, they have mastered all the schedule of Mr. Marlboro in half a month. Even the possibility of other details has been considered. It seems that this time, the Americans are determined to get rid of this thorny eye.
"Four days later, this one-eyed lone wolf Bel Motar, that is, Mr. Marlboro, will convene several armed leaders under him for a meeting. This meeting should be held in this building in Nermuri Village." Lin Rui Beckoned, "Satellite picture!" Sausage opened the satellite picture of Nermuri Village on the LCD.
"This is a village dominated by terrorists. The size is relatively large, which makes them have at least two hundred or more armed personnel deployed here. There is evidence that there is a training camp for them four or five kilometers away. There are mostly terrorist recruits they convened locally, and the number of personnel is estimated to be more. So we must ensure that we succeed in one blow. If we fail, the situation will become very bad. On the one hand, we may be trapped by a large number of militants. In the village, on the other hand, the terrorists in the training camp will catch up to reinforce them." Lin Rui pointed to the map.
"This is just one of the reasons, and there is another reason. This village is quite desolate, with the Libyan border to the east and some scattered small villages to the west, which are very convenient to hide. If the target escapes, it will be difficult for us to find him. So we Only one hit must hit, there is no second chance." Crazy Horse pointed to the map. "And it's best to get rid of the target without alerting the terrorists. Otherwise, it will be difficult for us to get out."
Lin Rui nodded and said, "What do you think?"
"Either use a long-range sniper method, or start at the periphery of the village, to avoid going deep into the village, resulting in failure to withdraw in time." Crazy Horse looked at the topographic map.
"There are no high-level sniper spots around. If you use a helicopter to sniper in the air, they will find out if the target is too big. Second, if they are indoors, we have nothing to do." Yelena replied.
Lin Rui nodded, "Yes, it is difficult to rush in and attack, and the risk is high. It is also much more difficult to use long-range sniping.
