Chapter 1554

Washington, white house, secret service room.

At a long table, from left to right, there are U.S. Vice President, U.S. president, special operations commander and assistant commander in chief, presidential security adviser, U.S. Secretary of state, Secretary of defense, army general, presidential security adviser, vice president security adviser, U.S. anti-terrorism commander in chief, presidential homeland security and anti-terrorism assistant, and director of national intelligence.

In the cabin, which covers the highest floor of more than half of the country in the United States, there is a large screen, which plays the picture of Kiev thousands of miles away.

Everyone's face was very serious. There were a lot of people, but it was silent.

The picture was taken by the helicopter camera. The signal from Kiev was almost delayed. Looking at the scenery flashing under the helicopter, everyone was waiting to repeat the exciting scene three years ago.

The helicopter hatch opened, the upper hatch of four helicopters opened, and eight special combat personnel in wing suits jumped down from the hatch and flew like bats to a house on the ground in the dark.

As the commander-in-chief, the U.S. special operations commander was a little excited. He turned his head and whispered, "operation sharp blade has officially begun."

Everyone just nodded subconsciously, but no one spoke.

When the wing parachute jumpers were about to reach the ground, a 12.7mm sniper rifle specialized in precision shooting on the helicopter opened fire, and a mass of blood burst out on a person exposed to the thermal imager.

In full bloom, eight wing mounted special combat team members landed. At the same time, three helicopters began to hover over the building to let the special combat team members land by cable.

The people in the room are very nervous, but they also have strong self-confidence. They have the most powerful army, the most powerful country and the most advanced technology on the planet. They have no reason to fail.

Everything went well before the special combat team entered the interior of the building.

The first fell, the second fell, the third fell, the fourth fell, the fifth fell, the sixth fell, the seventh fell, and the eighth fell.

When all eight people, as the first knife to swing and bearing the responsibility of breaking the door and building an advantage, fell down at the front door, everyone's face was no longer serious, but shocked.

The army general stood up, very impolitely blocked the sight of the people behind him, stunned, flushed, and put his hands on the table.

The man who lowered the rope to the ground fell the ninth, the tenth, the eleventh and the twelfth. Thirty seconds passed.

"God!"

"Oh, my God!"

"Shet!"

The president of the United States doesn't know much about military affairs, but he doesn't know much about military affairs. Moreover, no matter how ignorant people are, people who see continuous falls at the door also know what happened.

Those who fell are the elite of the elite. The United States can't afford to lose. The equipment on these people is very precious, but their lives are more precious. The money for training them is more than ten times that of equipment.

The president of the United States whispered, "Marshall, do something!"

Marshall Weber, commander of U.S. special operations, grabbed the microphone in front of him. When he thought about what to say, ten seconds passed, and ten more people fell at the door and around the building.

"Retreat! Retreat! Reorganize the attack!"

Ten thousand miles away, the call came in an instant. The special combat team members guarding around the house retreated and were ready to concentrate their manpower and launch an attack after re establishing the superior firepower.

The personnel retreated, but stepped on the mine. Looking at the continuous flash on the ground, the army general shouted, "there are mines! Stop and don't move!"

Despair and panic quickly flooded everyone in the secret service room. The Presidential Assistant pointed to the camera in the corner and said, "turn it off!"

The photographer had never seen the polite assistant to the president lose his manners and yell in such a panic, but he immediately turned off the machine in his hand.

When we saw that the following special combat team members were worthy of their training, completed one end feint and one end burst to open the door in a very short time, and then someone finally rushed into the building, the people in the special situation room seemed to see hope again.

Two people came out of the building, one rushed out of the front door and the other turned out of the window. Then, the ground flashed continuously, and then everything fell into silence.

Dead silence.

"What's going on!"

The special operations commander wiped the sweat that didn't exist on his forehead and said in a trembling voice: "we can't contact. The interference is two-way, and we have also been subjected to electromagnetic interference. However, from the counterattack strength in the building, I'm sure big Ivan is inside. If it weren't for the guards around him and the strongest people in Russia, it would not have caused us so many casualties."

The face of the president of the United States was very black. Of course, his skin color was very black. He stood up, clenched his fist and whispered, "we failed to implement plan B. hurry up and carry out rescue operations to save our injured people."

The special operations commander said with a dead face: "there is no plan B, no rescue operation, and no follow-up plan. The task is performed by the army special tactics research team. The option of failure is not considered at all, if we are true according to the information of the plan."

The president covered his forehead and said painfully, "did you call me here so that I could witness a massacre? God, this picture will torture me all my life. They are all the best people, but they were killed by your stupid plan. Who will give me an explanation?"

The intelligence officer coughed softly and whispered: "Judging from what happened, big Ivan is inside, which shows that our intelligence is accurate. The strategy of letting polovich lead big Ivan out is also correct. The only mistake occurred in the final implementation stage. It's a pity, but I think it's time to pay for the failure of the operation. We may not be able to catch big Ivan's tail for a long time."

The army general said angrily, "now we don't know the result! Even if big Ivan is inside, even if we see the end of failure, so what can it be? You promised that as long as a quick and effective beheading operation can solve the problem, but the reality is that there is an ambush inside! Where are mines buried, whose intelligence is wrong!"

"You asked to dispatch the army special combat team. If it was the Navy, it might be another result. I'm sorry. I don't intend to hurt everyone who has been hurt tonight, but that's the truth."

The Army General's face turned red. If he wasn't talking to a senior general, he would wave his fist.

Carry the black pot. I'll do meritorious service. If you succeed, we'll clap our hands and celebrate. If you fail, find a scapegoat. This is a universal truth, but Westerners are a little more direct.

A man came out of the building and everyone immediately shut up. But when he saw the man start shooting at the head of each special combat team member on the ground with a pistol, the president of the United States turned around and said painfully, "enough, the operation failed. Take all measures to deal with the aftermath immediately."

"We still have some active hands in Kiev. Let them go right away, save... And pick up the dead."

"We have a lot of manpower available in Kiev, but all the people who are qualified to contact this level of operation are already there."

After the director of national intelligence slowly finished, he rubbed his face painfully and said helplessly, "all the people who followed this case are dead. They should have identified big Ivan and caught him, but now, there is no such person. This failed operation ruined all our previous efforts."

The president of the United States turned back and looked at the big screen. The man who had just come out of the room reached out and raised his middle finger at them, and then quickly fired a rocket launcher or missile on his shoulder.

Looking at the man who appeared on the screen, the room was silent, and then the army general gnashed his teeth and said, "damn Russians! Damn Russians, these son of a bitch Russians!"

After the helicopter made a quick evasion, the picture began to move, making people look dizzy.

"Crew evacuation, evacuation!"

When the special operations commander gave the order, things were completely irreversible, and the failed operation drew a humiliating end.

"Is there no follow-up plan to choose from? There are no backup personnel on the helicopter?"

"No, all the members of the army special tactics research team sent to Kiev have been put into combat, and only the crew members are left on the plane."

The president of the United States smashed his fist on the table, then nodded heavily on the table with his index finger, and said in a deep voice: "right here, hold an emergency meeting, lest I need to invite you one by one, gentlemen and ladies, I repeat, I need an explanation!"

The intelligence director coughed and said in a fast voice: "Big Ivan has been hiding, and too many people are willing to provide shelter for him. He seems to appear anywhere, South America, Africa, Europe and Asia. He is everywhere, but he can always disappear quickly. We lost his trace, so we took a series of measures to find him. We began to remove his wings. The first thing to kill is his negative influence in Europe Andre, the responsible person, chose Andre because Europe is too important to big Ivan. This is his foundation. If Andre is killed, big Ivan will have to personally preside over his affairs in Europe, especially in Eastern Europe. He can't bear the consequences of losing Europe. "

The army general said angrily, "I don't know what you think, and I don't know whether your intelligence is correct. I just want to know why this arms dealer won't hide in Russia since you want to deal with a Russian arms dealer. We can't do it against him in Russia. As long as he's not an idiot, he should understand this!"

"Very simply, big Ivan has more enemies than friends in Russia, and there are no fewer Russians who want to kill him than us."

After a brief answer, the intelligence director continued: "Our plan was very successful. Andre died, but big Ivan's activities in Europe did not decrease. He contracted his strength, and then began to respond with a more powerful small force. Our internal line lost its function, but it also showed that big Ivan appeared in Kiev. The reason is that he absolutely can't hand over a huge force to anyone, so it's not easy However, if his power system in Europe is not in disorder, it can only show that big Ivan has come to the surface. Then, bolovich of Asia rushed to Kiev. He met big Ivan, our people tracked him, and then there was tonight's action. It's just a pity that the action failed. It's a tragedy. "

To throw out the black pot, you must speak first and throw away all the things that are unfavorable to you. As for things such as wrong intelligence and insufficient judgment of the enemy's strength, you can quarrel slowly in the future, but now, at the moment, when everyone is depressed and angry, the black pot must be thrown out.

Who is the best person to carry the black pot?

Of course, the person responsible for specific actions.

The commander of the special operations command is a general of the army. Who likes to take the black pot? If not, let's talk about it slowly.

"There are obviously many people in ambush here, and they are the most elite enemies in the world. Gentlemen, you have seen what just happened. It's the army special tactics research team. One minute, just one minute. Who can defeat them? Besides the same elite and more Russians? Who else? I think there are at least 100 people in it, but why My intelligence is just a small-scale enemy of more than 20 people? "

The special operations commander, who was also the commander of the operation, fought back, not against the enemy on the screen, but the enemy in front of him. He temporarily regarded the army general as an ally, because the strength of the Army Special Tactics Team was blameless, and no one dared to deny their strong combat power, even if a tragedy had just happened.

The army special tactics research team can fail because there is no truly invincible army in the world. However, the army special tactics research team must have been defeated by ambush and enemies whose number exceeds several times its own. Therefore, this must be a mistake in intelligence. It must be.

The army general said with a painful face: "this is a premeditated and prepared ambush. Where is the problem? I don't want to consider this problem now. What I want is how to take the dead brothers home. Those Russians won't respect the bodies of the dead."

The Secretary of state coughed slightly and said in a quick voice, "gentlemen, how do I explain this matter to Kiev? This failure undermines our dignity. I think we need to block the news. In addition, I propose to transfer the satellites in nearby orbits immediately and closely monitor what happened there."

"We should let the Ukrainian army and our people go immediately. Now is not the time to consider the level of confidentiality!"

This tragic failure upset the hearts of all the witnesses. Although they were originally the most powerful people in the world, listening to some impatient discussions or quarrels among their colleagues, the president covered his head and said loudly: "stop quarreling. Now is not the time. Let's discuss how to inform the Ukrainian government of this matter."
