It was close to midnight and the night was deep.
They lost three people when they attracted the attention of the relay station's defense team. Liu Fei and Liao Genzhu's team had twelve people left. Including Qu Sen, the team of thirteen people left the Blue Team's headquarters in area 047 and headed diagonally towards 259.
After passing through the plain river network and entering the hilly area, they immediately spread out in a line to search.
Although everyone's target area was 259 and headed east to the edge of the maneuver area, no one could tell which direction the three people disguised as Forestry University's teachers and students fled in.
"Qu Sen, it's been more than two hours since we left until we found out that the three people were missing. Then, it's been another two hours since we completed the perimeter blockade. In total, it's been more than four hours. Do you think they've already left the maneuver area? "Liu Fei couldn't help but ask as he washed his face in a small stream and took a short break.
"From 240 to the edge of the maneuver area, the nearest direction is more than thirty kilometers of mountain road. In the middle, we have to avoid the Blue Team's anti-infiltration team and checkpoints. Unless the three of them are faster than us, it's basically impossible. "Qu Sen took a sip of water and slowly swallowed it before speaking.
"With those three people and the two women, they definitely won't be able to escape." A soldier said bitterly.
"Maybe they're professionally trained spies or mercenaries. It's hard to say." Liao Genzhu, who had already calmed down, answered.
"Don't worry. The police, armed police, and even the reserve militia have been mobilized outside. They can't escape." Qu Sen comforted Liao Genzhu and stood up with his hands on his knees.
"Motherf * cker. If we catch them, we'll kill a few of them." Liu Fei clenched his teeth and spat out the words. Then, he shouted at the soldiers, "Spread out and continue!" Clearly, the injuries of two of his comrades made him hold back his anger.
A team of thirteen people, even if they were separated by three meters, they could only spread out a distance of less than forty meters to search and advance. Moreover, it was at night. For the hilly area where one couldn't see the end of it from the top of the mountain, it was too small.
If one looked at the entire exercise area, it would be even more insignificant.
In fact, after searching for a while, everyone gradually calmed down. Every warrior in the team realized that if they wanted to find those three people in such a large area, even if all the participating teams from both the Red and Blue teams were to spread out the net, it would still be like a sieve for them to miss.
The reason why everyone was still persevering was that their comrades were still in danger. With nowhere to vent the anger in his heart, he felt that he had to do something. The other was that there were drones with heat sensors in the sky, constantly investigating. Once the reconnaissance satellite entered the window, it could carry out a seamless investigation in a wider area.
Just as Qu Sen's team was searching in the mountains, the reconnaissance satellite finally entered its window period. At the maximum effective range of the thermal sensor lens, it was carrying out extreme battlefield surveillance. The focus of the drone's investigation turned to the blind spot of the satellite due to its angle.
When the reconnaissance satellite completely scanned the exercise area, Qu Sen's team finally returned to the col where the three local people were found. Looking at the place where the tents were originally set up, which was now cleaned up, some of the warriors couldn't help but curse.
"What are you cursing for? The cleaner they clean up the scene, the better!" Qu Sen shouted. Seeing that everyone was looking at him, he explained, "There are only three of them. The more they want to clean up the traces, the more time it will take. The more time they waste, the less likely they will be able to escape before the entire exercise area is sealed off by the troops! "
"F * ck, it's good that they can't escape. As long as they are surrounded, we can seal off the mountain and do a carpet search at dawn. I don't believe that we won't be able to find them," Liu Fei said hatefully.
"Deputy Ban, take out the map. We have to study it carefully. Blindly searching is not the way to go." When Qu Sen encouraged everyone, his confidence also increased a lot.
"Since it's difficult for them to escape, let's participate in the outer blockade and wait until dawn to participate in the network search," Liu Fei replied.
"If they really are spies, they must have collected a lot of information about our participating troops. Now that the Internet is so advanced, I'm afraid that they will hide somewhere and send the information away. By then, it will be too late to catch them," Qu Sen explained.
"F * ck, then we have to hurry up and find them!" Liu Fei quickly took out the map and shook it open.
The two participating divisions this time, one represented the highest level of equipment and technology in the country at the current stage, and the other was the first batch of standard mixed divisions that had completed the reorganization. The situation of these two divisions was undoubtedly the focus of foreign military intelligence agencies.
After Qu Sen's words, everyone in the team realized that if this information was leaked out, it would be a very serious leak.
The warriors who had just relaxed immediately pulled themselves together. After confirming the direction of the search, Liu Fei called out to them and once again spread out to search in the direction of 259 and 260.
Because everyone's energy was severely depleted, it took Qu Sen's team an hour to search the area between 262 and 263, which was about 20 kilometers away from the edge of the exercise zone.
Liu Fei could only order everyone to rest for ten minutes.
Because they were already exhausted, no one spoke during the break. Everyone panted for a while and began to slowly replenish their lost water. A few warriors with cramps in their legs were stretching each other. They all gritted their teeth and exerted force. No one made a sound.
"Qu Sen, calling Qu Sen." When Qu Sen leaned against a tree and pressed hard on his calf to relax his muscles, Zhou Li's static voice came from the communicator on his forearm.
"Roger, please speak!" Qu Sen pressed the call button to respond.
"Southeast of 262, is the 13-man team in a state of stagnation yours?" Zhou Li's voice was filled with urgency.
"It's us!" Qu Sen realized that something was wrong and immediately answered.
"Immediately move to the right of due north. Hurry!"
"Yes, I'll act immediately." Qu Sen replied and then released the call button.
There was no need for anyone to call. After the twelve warriors in the team heard the voice from the communicator, they all got up and began to move north at full speed.
Qu Sen's previous suggestion to monitor the wireless network and satellite connectivity in the exercise zone was taken seriously by the director's department.
Using existing investigative methods to monitor the unknown communication signals in the area, they also asked the public security system to help coordinate the local movement and the two wireless communication companies so that their technical departments could monitor the wireless communication and network in the exercise zone.
The public security system quickly issued a notice of assistance. The police took the notice directly to the computer room of the two major communication companies in the city to ask for assistance. Because it involved a very high level of authority, the staff on duty in the two computer rooms did not dare to make a decision on their own. They contacted their superiors, who contacted their superiors, and the municipal superiors reported the situation back to the provincial superiors.
During this period, several people were contacted and turned off their phones because they were resting at night. When the request for assistance was finally approved, it was already nearly an hour later. After receiving approval from the leader, the staff on duty in the computer room did not delay and immediately began to lock onto several signal towers in the exercise zone.
Because the area chosen for the exercise was far away from residential areas, there were not many signal towers, and they were basically empty in the middle of the night. After eliminating a few external communications from the director's department, the mobile company's computer room found a terminal device that was continuously using the GPRS network to upload data.
After the initial use of AGPS positioning, it was determined that the terminal device was located in the hilly area east of the exercise zone. Under normal circumstances, this area would only be entered by forest rangers when they were patrolling. Usually, there would be very few people, not to mention that it was still in the exercise lockdown period. In addition, no one would use their mobile phone to surf the Internet in the middle of the night in the mountains.
This suspicious situation immediately attracted the attention of the public security department, but there was disagreement on whether to immediately cut off the device's network.
Some people believed that in order to prevent military intelligence from leaking out, the network should be cut off immediately. Others believed that if the network was cut off now, the three suspected enemy spies would likely continue to move and seek to break through the blockade to escape, making the arrest difficult.
However, an engineer in the mobile computer room came up with an idea: Without cutting off the network, the information could be prevented from leaking out.
If the current domestic wireless network wanted to complete point-to-point data exchange, it needed many nodes to relay. The engineer's idea was to tamper with the server in the mobile computer room. When the data was transferred there, the content of the data packet would be artificially destroyed, and the network speed of the mobile terminal device would be reduced.
There were three benefits in this way. First, even if the other party sent information, it would be useless after the receiver received it. Second, reducing the connection speed would prolong their data transmission time, which would be more conducive to the arrest. Third, because the mobile phone's GPRS network was ultimately connected to the wide area network, it would take a long time to track and lock onto the receiver of the data. According to his idea, it would increase the possibility of locking onto the receiver of the data.
