Qin Feng and his party were hunting in a mighty and mighty manner, and their formation was also very loose.

Basically, no one thought that anyone would dare to attack them.

Attack them with such short-sightedness.

Who dares to come!

There is a battalion of regular troops here.

A battalion of regular troops and the surrounding warlords must mobilize at least the strength of an army.

They may not even be able to eat it.

This is no joke.

In "Project Black Hawk", although the U.S. combat plan was said to have failed, in fact, in terms of results, the U.S. won. However, from an overall perspective, the U.S. operation failed to achieve its goals.

Its background also stems from the African civil war.

Originally, the Federal Republic of Somalia was located on the Somali Peninsula in the easternmost part of the African continent, with the longest coastline in Africa. Since the fall of the Siad regime in 1991, Somalia has been an armed warlord regime, and the country is divided into anarchy. Somaliland in northwest Somalia

Both Central Puntland and Southwestern Somalia, which tend to be united, are essentially independent. Somalia is the only sea route for cargo ships from all countries to enter and leave the Suez Canal. Due to the ongoing civil war in Somalia, education and social systems have collapsed for many years. The local people have used pirates since the 20th century.

As a business, pirates extort merchant ships from various countries every year, and the amount is hard to estimate.

As we all know, in the era of warlord rule, humanitarianism in Somalia was difficult to implement. Every household held an AK. In Somalia, you can live without a mobile phone or a TV, but you cannot live without a gun. And shooting on the street

Deaths often occur, and even when you are sleeping, you can hear gunshots outside.

Therefore, in 1992, the United Nations decided to send peacekeeping troops to Somalia, mainly to supervise the ceasefire of various tribes and provide limited humanitarian aid to the residents of Somalia. Due to the continuous expansion of the power of the warlords, the humanitarian supplies received by the residents were all used by the warlords.

At the beginning of the movie "Black Hawk Down", a scene of warlords stealing supplies provided by the United Nations was filmed.

As the situation in Somalia continues to worsen, the United Nations has successively sent some additional personnel to Somalia. The purpose of the peacekeeping forces in Somalia has also been upgraded from the initial monitoring of ceasefire to using "all necessary means" to establish humanitarian relief operations in Somalia.

Safe environment.

However, Somalia's most powerful warlord, Farah Aidid, believed that the peacekeeping forces were an obstacle to the expansion of his power, so he ambushed the Pakistani troops, killing 24 Pakistani soldiers. After Aidid ambushed the Pakistani troops, the United Nations authorized peacekeeping forces

The troops must use any means to catch those behind the scenes.

On October 2, 1993, the US military received reliable intelligence that Aidid would be having a meeting at a hotel in Mogadishu. So the US military immediately organized a capture plan. First, they prepared to use eight Black Hawk helicopters to drop troops next to the hotel, and then

The armored troops marched into Mogadishu, and finally the captured personnel and prisoners retreated in trucks. In order to avoid intensifying conflicts with local residents, the US military chose not to open fire at the beginning of the operation.

At 3:32 pm on October 3, 1993, the attack began. AH-6 "Little Bird" and MH-60K "Black Hawk" helicopters quickly took off from a temporary airport near the coast, and the ground escort convoy also drove out of the barracks.

The two "Little Bird" helicopters that set out first landed on the narrow street on the south side of the target building. The first group of "Delta" team members jumped out of the helicopter, threw several smoke bombs into the yard where the building was located, and then knocked open an iron door.

The door rushed into the courtyard. Before the Aidid elements meeting inside could react, the "Delta" team members rushed into the room from the stairs at the back of the building and took control of the situation. Then, they rushed the 24 captured Somali prisoners to the first floor.

They handcuffed their wrists together and prepared to evacuate.

As a result, what is called people's war is happening in Somalia at this moment.

Aidid's troops used loudspeakers to broadcast to the Somalis: "Come out and fight for your homeland!" Thousands of Somalis came from all directions and besieged the American soldiers.

At this time, the escort convoy commanded by Lieutenant Colonel Danny McNitt had arrived at the target building on time. Because a "Ranger" named Blackburn was seriously injured when he slipped from the helicopter, McNitt decided to

Sergeant Stryker commanded three "Hummers" to first transport Blackburn back to the base, and then used the remaining nine "Hummers" and trucks to transport the Somali prisoners, along with "Delta" members and "Rangers" out of the city.

Stryker is only 24 years old. He is a veteran who participated in the Gulf War and fought in Panama. He has performed many humanitarian transportation and supply missions for the United Nations and is familiar with the streets of Mogadishu. He uses a "Hummer" vehicle

Escorting Blackburn back to the camp, he was surrounded by Aidid militants along the way. In the end, Stryker brought Blackburn back to the camp safely, but his machine gunner Pila was shot and killed.

By this time, the 160 "Delta" members and "Rangers" on the mission in the United States had been surrounded by Aidid's people's forces.

The entire city was mobilized, and thousands of people surrounded it.

This is very scary.

After half a day of brutal fighting, 19 US troops were killed, 1 was captured, and more than 70 were injured. Two helicopters were shot down, 3 were damaged, and several trucks and Humvees were destroyed.

Statistics from Somalia show that 320 people died and more than 840 were injured. Of course, this statistics is not detailed enough and the number may be even greater.

Afterwards, the United States came under unanimous global criticism, leading to the withdrawal of its troops.

But in terms of results, 160 US troops were able to kill several times their own number of enemy troops in the face of attacks from the entire city of Mogadishu, which illustrates the power of the regular army.

Moreover, the United States simply does not dare to use large and heavy weapons.

On the contrary, their private army does not have so many scruples.

If the warlords around them really dare to cause trouble for them, they won't have as many scruples as the American soldiers.

Don't forget, there are hundreds of "Javelin missiles" suitable for street fighting in the military camp, as well as more than a dozen Tomahawk cruise missiles secretly transported by Raytheon Company.

After all, even though it was said to be contraband, it was procured by one's own family.

In addition, there are dozens of modified "Sparrow" missiles that can be used for surface-to-air use, specifically designed to fight aircraft.

It can be said that this base is armed to the teeth.

If the surrounding warlords dare to cause trouble, they will be destroyed.

Wiped off the map.

So, there is nothing to worry about. Absolutely nothing!
