Chapter 824: Crossing the Thundercloud (asking for monthly ticket)

"Thank you, Commander, Director Chen, Captain Lei. Then I will go to the mission point with Gao Bo and Wu Kang to investigate!"

"Okay, be sure to pay attention to safety. After landing, report to the command center at any time!"

"understand!"

Hang up communication.

The C-9 transport plane made a dull humming sound, like a disturbed bird of prey, and began to change its course. Everyone's bodies were suddenly pulled to one side.

"Captain Gu, the commander has assigned me to fully assist you in carrying out the airborne mission."

Cao Zhiyu also seemed to have received new arrangements.

He turned to look at the soldier next to him and said, "I will bring two people to parachute with me to help you lead the way."

"Director Cao, you still have to go to the core area of ​​the disaster area to carry out the airdrop mission..."

Gu Jiben wanted to decline.

After all, they have already taken advantage of the Ningzhou Air Force, and now they are going to waste their time, manpower and energy.

Letting the Air Force lead the way was risking his own life, so he naturally felt a little guilty.

"Hey! This is the commander's order, I must obey it!"

"All right……"

Seeing that Cao Zhiyu was very determined, Gu Ji could only agree temporarily.

Twenty minutes later.

The pilots in the cockpit reported that the ground tower had sent them the latest disaster area map and weather information.

Cao Zhiyu immediately unbuckled his seat belt, entered the cab and took a picture of the map information with his mobile phone.

"Our mission coordinates are here."

"This location? According to the current wind direction and speed, we can continue to move forward along the 300-degree course, and make a high jump and low start at a location 5 kilometers away from the target point. This will ensure a more accurate landing point."

have to say.

Cao Zhiyu is worthy of being the airborne and airdrop director of the Ningzhou Air Force, and he has extensive airborne experience.

Gu Jigang marked the mission location.

Based on the existing data, he quickly calculated the optimal solution for the skydiving mode.

Because even though they now have some meteorological and ground data.

But don't forget.

The weather changes every minute.

In particular, wind direction and wind speed are the two factors that interfere with skydiving the most. Jumping high and opening low is to pass through the clouds and get close to the ground as quickly as possible.

In a short period of time, the drone's exploration range is very limited.

The reconnaissance aircraft of the Us Military Region's Army Aviation Regiment can only confirm that there are no hills in the explored area.

So they have to make sure they land here as much as possible.

Otherwise, if you are blown off course by the wind and are unlucky enough to encounter a mountain top after passing through the clouds, you will not have time to open the parachute, or if you open the parachute you will not slow down enough and you will fall directly on the rocks and turn into meat paste on the spot!

"No problem, just do as Director Cao says."

"About to arrive at the drop zone, 44-77800, tail compartment is ready, currently in good condition, will be dropped in 10 minutes."

"receive."

Not long after the two of them finalized the plan.

The pilot's broadcast came from the cockpit.

Cao Zhiyu responded and immediately raised his fist, "10 minutes, stand up."

"Kacha!"

For an instant.

All members instantly unbuckled their seat belts, stood up together, and began to organize their airborne equipment.

Like carrying out high-risk airborne airdrop missions like this.

The military equipment in the cabin often has redundancy, enough for their use.

Gu Ji stood up and walked to a black box in the tail cabin.

This is the mission equipment prepared for them by the Intelligence Department, which is actually the National Security and Military Intelligence Staff.

The original plan was to land at Shichuan Military Airport and then tow themselves directly to the military helicopter.

And now that we are going to parachute.

Of course I had to take it with me, so I asked the comrades in the Air Force to help me tie on the automatic parachute specially used for airdrops.

Gu Ji wrapped the umbrella bag around his body.

When he received the assignment, he had just finished an open class at school and had no time to change his clothes, so he was wearing a special police training uniform but with a military green camouflage parachute bag, which looked a little out of place.

On the other side, Gao Bo and Wu Kang also put on breathing masks and goggles.

It's not 08 anymore.

Over the past decade, Xia State has been making rapid progress.

There have been tremendous changes in both equipment supply and military technology.

"Buzz! Buzz!"

"three minutes!"

Hearing the red light alarm, Cao Zhiyu raised his left hand again and extended three fingers.

"Captain Gu, Sun Liang and I will lead the charge and guide you. Pay attention to the IR flashes on our helmets!"

As he spoke, he pushed a young air force soldier with a round face and big eyes over to him. Together with another person named Xu Xiaojun, the three of them would be the helpers who would assist them in carrying out the airborne mission this time.

Gu Ji and Gao Bo worked together to push the black box to the rear cabin door.

He clapped his hands and said, "Director Cao, your Air Force has helped us enough. Leave the guidance to me!"

"No, I'm older than you and have more experience. I have to start this!"

"Director Cao, I..."

"Stop talking, Captain Gu, this matter is not negotiable!"

Gu Ji wanted to persuade him a little more, but Cao Zhiyu refused outright and didn't give him a chance to speak.

But he still didn't give up.

After all, the "70%" success rate promised to Director Chen and the commander-in-chief was based on his own guidance.

Although Cao Zhiyu is experienced, he doesn't have a plug-in like ORS after all.

Taking the lead at this time is equivalent to a blind jump.

He completely threw his own life behind his back!

Of course, Gu Ji would never let Cao Zhiyu take this risk.

On the side, Gao Bo saw that he was about to speak, and quickly glanced at Wu Kang. The two of them grabbed Gu Ji's shoulders and whispered:

"Gu Ji, why don't you just stop arguing. Director Cao has probably jumped through more umbrellas than we have eaten meals!"

"yes……"

But Gu Ji just shook off the two men lightly, took a big step forward and stood in front of Cao Zhiyu.

"Director Cao, I know you are a veteran paratrooper with a lot of experience, but please believe me, the training we receive and the missions we carry out are definitely no worse than those of the Air Force. Since I dare to issue an order in front of the organization, I, Gu Ji, am absolutely sure!"

After hearing this, Cao Zhiyu's brows were furrowed, almost twisted into knots, and the wrinkles on his forehead became deeper.

In his mind he thought.

Being older and more experienced, he should be the first to take the lead and provide shelter for the young people, not to mention that Gu Ji and the others are public security police officers.

Military and police, military and police, soldiers should be at the forefront.

But Gu Ji's resolute look and the unquestionable courage in his eyes made Cao Zhiyu feel conflicted again.

to be frank.

He was also unsure about this airborne operation.

Dark night, heavy rain, blind jump.

Any other air force officer might never have experienced this in his life, let alone Sun Liang, who was pushed up by him.

Think for a long time.

Looking at the equally young Sun Liang and Xu Xiaojun, Cao Zhiyu sighed in his heart: "How about this, Sun Liang will be in the back, Captain Gu, you and I will be the ground guide;

Don't persuade me anymore. I know you are worried about me, but since the country and the people let me wear this clothes and sit in this position, I must stand up and accept the test. If you can do it, I, Cao Zhiyu, can do it too!"

"All right!"

Seeing that he couldn't persuade her any further, Gu Ji had no choice but to compromise.

"We have arrived at the designated airspace. Our mission team is about to launch the launch. The altitude is 8000 meters. The wind speed test is completed. The hatch is opening..."

"Received, parachute drop countdown begins!"

"Boom——!"

With the red alarm warning, the tail hatch slowly sank and opened.

In an instant, the strong wind, like a wild horse breaking free from its reins, brought with it a bone-chilling chill, rushing madly into the cabin, interweaving with the roar of the engine, as if countless evil spirits were howling in unison.

Gao Bo lowered his head tentatively, the strong wind pulling violently at the corners of his clothes and hair.

His eyes passed through the hatch and looked down.

There was a bottomless black cloud, so thick that it could not be dissolved. White light flickered in the black cloud like ferocious sharp claws, and every time it passed, it was accompanied by deafening thunder.

Like a huge hammer, it hit everyone's heart hard.

"Gu Ji, are you sure you can succeed?"

Gao Bo's words were like a hammer, waking everyone up on the spot.

Anyone who sees this scene will feel a little panicked or retreat. This is human instinct.

"Trust me, Gobbo!"

Gu Ji turned around and patted Gao Bo on the shoulder, then looked at Wu Kang, Cao Zhiyu, Sun Liang and others one by one. There was no trace of retreat in his eyes under the transparent goggles.

"Thirty seconds!"

"call……"

Cao Zhiyu took a deep breath and walked to Gu Ji, as if he had made up his mind and determination to die. "Captain Gu, after we go down, if you are faster than me, I will go find you. If I am faster than you..."

"Don't worry, I will find you too."

"Five, four, three, two..."

As the air force counted down, Gu Ji replied to him, then turned around and looked at Gao Bo and the others seriously, "And all of you!"

"one!"

"Hoohoo!"

The voice just fell.

Gu Ji suddenly leaped up and rushed out of the cabin without hesitation like a bullet.

Time stopped briefly.

An intense feeling of weightlessness hit his scalp, followed by the sharp and shrill whistling of the wind in his ears. His speed was getting faster and faster, his heart rate soared, and his blood pressure rose.

But Gu Ji, a veteran who had already gone through countless airborne drills, quickly calmed himself down and adjusted his posture.

Look back.

Cao Zhiyu was not far behind him, and the third person to jump down was Gao Bo, followed by Sun Liang, Wu Kang, and the black box pushed down by the air force soldiers, etc...

The environment at an altitude of 8,000 meters is already oxygen-deficient.

Fortunately, they all wore oxygen masks, but they could still feel the oppression brought by the cold wind blowing in their faces, as if they had fallen into a bottomless trench.

As a guide, Gu Ji must land on the ground as quickly as possible.

So he adopted a diving posture with his whole body contracted downward, and his speed soon exceeded 300 kilometers.

Dark clouds disappear in the blink of an eye.

In an instant, strong winds accompanied by heavy rain rushed towards me, like countless sharp stones hitting my exposed forehead, and "crackling" on my body and umbrella, causing great pain. The rain covered my goggles and the surrounding air flow was as turbulent as a boiling whirlpool.

The rainstorm was obviously worse than he thought.

He could only rely on his experience and strong will to quickly adjust his posture. The clouds were dark and clustered together, and lightning flashed not far from him.

The strong light and deafening thunder made his heart beat faster. Every flash of lightning seemed like the scythe of the god of death waving beside him.

Turn around and look.

The teammates also struggled to maintain their balance under the fierce wind, but fortunately they were safe.

Just as he was about to pass through the clouds.

Suddenly, there was a loud bang.

Suddenly, a piece of something hit Cao Zhiyu, instantly breaking his balance. He fell like a piece of debris, tumbling and spinning in the air, completely out of control.

Damn it! !

Gu Ji's heart tightened.

Knowing that Cao Zhiyu might have been hit by an ice crystal in the clouds, he adjusted the angle without hesitation, and rushed towards his teammates sideways like a diving falcon.

The most dangerous things when skydiving in weather like this are ice crystals and lightning. If you are hit by either of these, you will either fall into a coma at best or be burned to charcoal on the spot at worst.

At this moment, the only sounds in Gu Ji's ears were the howling of the wind and his own rapid breathing.

Fortunately, the two people jumped down one after the other, and the distance between them was not far.

Just at the moment of breaking out of the dark clouds, Gu Ji adjusted his posture and grabbed Cao Zhiyu from behind.

"Director Cao! Director Cao!!"

"Uh, I'm fine..."

Cao Zhiyu was also a veteran airborne soldier. If it weren't for the accident just now, he would not have suddenly lost control. With Gu Ji's help, he quickly stabilized.

"Okay, we have successfully broken through the clouds. You keep an eye on the others, I'll go down and explore the way first!"

"understand!"

The two of them shouted desperately in the wind.

Immediately, Gu Ji continued to dive at high speed, and raindrops whizzed past him like sharp arrows.

Due to the resistance brought by the strong wind, his speed gradually decreased from a maximum of 300 kilometers per hour to 200 kilometers per hour.

Behind him, Gao Bo and others had already opened their parachutes.

But Gu Ji hadn't pulled the parachute cord yet.

Because everyone was waiting for his news from the ground.

"5500, 5000, 4500..."

The altimeter on my wrist is updating rapidly.

Because this is the Wus Plateau, the average altitude of Lingzhou is about 3000 meters, which means that he is now less than 1500 meters away from the ground.

But because of the dark clouds, there was no guidance on the ground.

Everything in front of Gu Ji was dark.

I couldn't tell how high I was from the ground, or whether there were mountains, land, or rivers below me...

He quickly used his mind to call up the ORS satellite image set and compared it with the image in the upper right corner of his vision...

"4400, 4300..."

It has reached a high danger level!

pull!

"Crash!!"

There was a sound from behind, and the green umbrella suddenly opened up. The fixing straps were instantly tightened, like tough steel cables, tightly around Gu Ji's shoulders, waist and thighs.

This sudden pulling force seemed to tear his body apart, but under the influence of this force, he suddenly changed from a state of free fall to a rapid buffer.

As the distance gets closer.

In addition to the sound of the wind, Gu Ji could also faintly hear the sound of flowing water.

This is... about to reach the ground!

Gu Ji tried hard to keep his body steady in the strong wind.

at last.

In the extremely dim light, he could vaguely see a high mountain forest getting closer and closer.

Gu Ji quickly pulled the parachute rope to adjust the landing angle.

Ten meters, eight meters, six meters...

He watched his feet touch the snow in the mountains and forests, and with a "puff", the snow covered his ankles and the cold instantly penetrated his boots.

But because of the fast speed, his body still maintained inertia and rushed forward.

A critical moment.

Gu Ji instinctively tried to grab something to keep his balance, but he only grabbed a handful of cold branches, which broke with a "crack".

next second.

A large amount of snow fell down and hit his head and shoulders! (End of this chapter)
