crisis management game.

Chapter 208 Fully Armed
"what!?"

Milburn's complexion changed suddenly, he turned around and shouted to a subordinate next to him: "Notify immediately, all checkpoints leaving the city will be blocked, the command center will dispatch and strictly check the monitoring of all traffic arteries, and implement strict martial law in the downtown area of ​​the city. Find the location of the drug dealer and the missing police vehicle!"

From the killing intent looming on his face, it can be seen how angry the captain was.

Right.

Shooting and killing a police officer on duty in front of the police headquarters is tantamount to being slapped severely by a drug dealer for Torreon, no, or even the entire police force.

If it cannot be handled properly in a timely manner, the authority and credibility of the police in the eyes of the public will be lost.

Gu Ji narrowed his eyes slightly, before his subordinates answered, he spoke first.

"Captain Milburn, the missing policeman is actually with the drug dealers!"

"This is impossible!"

Milburn immediately denied, "All police officers in Mexico need to pass the 'trust test' system such as polygraph, drug test, and psychological evaluation regularly. Police officers who fail the test will be fired."

"What if it was threatened or corrupted during the inspection?"

Gu Ji does not believe that there is any perfect system strategy, and this kind of long-term self-examination behavior will weaken the professional security of the police. Coupled with being suspected by his own people every day, anyone will be driven crazy, so he chooses to take risks.

So he briefly recounted the ins and outs of the shooting incident at the checkpoint.

At this time, another subordinate also came with documents from the Ministry of Public Security and the checkpoint police station, confirming the fact that the flight crashed and was held hostage by drug dealers.

Milburn put down his gun, took the faxed document, and cast a glance.

"Are you the passengers of flight AM649?"

"That's right, here's my airline ID."

Betty took out the work certificate of the flight attendant again, choked up, "Mr. Police Officer, we escaped from death and ran here just to seek rescue, please help us!"

"I'm sorry ma'am, Mexico is a federal system, and the states are relatively independent. Torreon where we are stationed belongs to the state of Coahuila, and the landing point of the flight is in the state of Durango. It is not easy for us to intervene in other jurisdictions. The issue of attacks by drug dealers has not been resolved...”

Milburn shrugged his shoulders and put on a "can't help" look.

"Captain Milburn, are you afraid?"

"What did you say!?"

Gu Ji's sudden words not only angered Milburn, but also aroused the dissatisfaction of other policemen around.

But he completely ignored it, and continued to speak unflatteringly:
"The words 'National Guard' and the police badge are printed on your sleeves and tactical vest. As far as I know, after the legislative reform in Mexico in 2022, the National Guard will be unified under the command of the Ministry of Defense and no longer subject to government control. And it stipulates that the crimes of drug smuggling, anti-government rebellion and jurisdictional conflicts in the state are generally responsible for the National Guard and federal police, and the rest of the crimes are responsible for the state police.”

When Gu Ji was in college, his teacher had specifically talked about the police reform in Mexico.

Mexico's police system is complex, especially the federal law enforcement agencies, which are often disbanded and then reorganized.

However, they are mainly divided into judicial and preventive categories.

The former is under the jurisdiction of the procuratorate and is mainly responsible for criminal investigation, while the latter has very limited investigative powers and takes prevention as its main responsibility.

In other words, the preventive police are purely violent forces that deal with drug dealers and insurgents most of the time.

This sounds a lot like the army. In fact, the Mexican authorities have actually formed an army-like police force, the National Guard in Milburn. A large number of personnel are mainly veterans, and training has been provided by the Ministry of Defense and the Navy. The Ministry is responsible, similar to the domestic armed police, and the Federal Police is also included in the management of the National Guard.

This new force did not disappoint the public. Gumans' son Oddlawi was successfully captured by the National Guard.

Milburn's eyelids twitched, as if he didn't expect Gu Ji, a foreigner, to understand the Mexican police system so well.

"Although it is not under the jurisdiction of the state government, we have been ordered to be responsible for the safety of Torreon. The drug dealers who attacked the police headquarters are hiding in the city. They may commit crimes again at any time and endanger civilians. We must give priority to solving them! "

"Captain Milburn, the kidnapping of passengers on an international flight by drug dealers is an urgent international crisis, and the priority is obviously higher, and the gang of drug dealers didn't intend to attack the police headquarters at all, otherwise they wouldn't run away after finishing the fight, they just wanted to kill two Police, disturb the line of sight and ask you not to participate in the rescue of passengers."

Gu Ji recounted his previous analysis of the real target of the Sinaloa drug traffickers.

In fact, from the very beginning when the drug dealer shot directly, he knew that the other party didn't want to keep alive at all, but just wanted to make things bigger and attract the attention of all the police.

Because within a radius of [-] kilometers, only the police headquarters in Torreon, an important town, has the strongest troops and equipment.

"You say the drug dealers want to force the government to release Odhilawy?"

When Milburn said these words, many policemen around shuddered in horror. The Sinaloa Group is like death to the Mexican police.

He pondered for a moment, then turned around and took out his cell phone from his pocket, and dialed his superior.

It seems that the aggressive method still works.

After some conversation, Milburn called his subordinates, "Notice, the drug traffickers who attacked the headquarters will be handed over to the federal police, and the combat team of the Torreon National Guard is ready for the rescue operation!"

"Yes!"

After his subordinates left, he looked at Gu Ji and the others again, "The Secretariat of the Ministry of National Defense has just reached an agreement with the Ministry of Public Security to send us as an advance team to rescue the crew members and passengers who died on Flight AM649. Two hours later, the United States and Mexico officially joined forces. The troops will arrive at the scene to join us, does anyone of you know the details of the hijacking drug dealers?"

"Thank God! That's great!"

"Wait! Betty, what are you talking about? Why did the police leave suddenly?"

Riddle and Saleh couldn't understand what they were talking about, and could only judge by their expressions and atmosphere. Seeing that Gu's few words aroused the dissatisfaction of these federal policemen, and then left in large numbers, they were naturally worried to death.

Gu Ji ignored him, but took out the phone of Aunt Sunglasses from his pocket, and displayed the screen saver interface.

"A drug dealer named Sarah has been shot dead by me, and the other is her. The yellow hair in the photo is her son, who acts as an interpreter in front of the drug dealer boss. The appearance of the drug dealer boss has gray curly hair and a beard. , about 1.7 meters five, very fat."

"Grey curly hair, beard...Sounds a lot like the number four in the Sinaloa cartel: Beam Aleman, who happens to be in charge of Durango State."

Milburn muttered a few words, and an impression immediately formed in his mind.

Eyes lowered, he looked at Gu Ji and the blood spots on his body with flickering eyes, "It sounds like you have good skills, and you know a lot about the Sinaloa Group."

"Antoine Yassen, I used to be an airborne soldier in Brazil. As for the information, I found part of it from the hijacker, and part of it came from him. Riddell is an undercover investigative reporter and once saw him from a distance. Once a drug dealer boss."

Gu Ji doesn't blush when he tells a lie now.

Anyway, Riddle couldn't understand Spanish, even if he could understand, he wouldn't dare to refute, after all, this kid's identity was not clean, and he still had a clue in his hands.

"That's right, Vernet Milburn, ex-Marine Scout, now in command of the Torreon National Guard Combat Group."

Upon hearing that Gu Ji had served in the army, Milburn's attitude changed immediately, and he even offered to extend his hand, "Since you have the ability to protect yourself and understand the situation, please come with us to the scene and provide help."

"No problem at all."

Gu Ji was worried about finding a reason to follow, but unexpectedly, the opportunity came to him, "But I want to take him with me. Riddle holds a lot of secrets about the Sinaloa Group."

Riddle was still waiting for an explanation, when he was suddenly caught, with a confused expression on his face.

This guy has too many secrets.

The relationship between the captain and him, the cause of death, third-party forces, the mysterious computer source of the illegal arms dealer Klica, etc...

So no matter what, Gu Ji couldn't let him go.

As the flight attendant, Betty refused to abandon the passengers on the flight, and also asked to act with the guards.

In the end, Saleh was left. He didn't want to provoke the drug dealer anymore, but when he thought of the tall black policeman, he was afraid that he would be shot black if he stayed here, so he had no choice but to join.

then.

The four of them boarded the armed pickup truck with Milburn. For safety reasons, Milburn gave each of them a tactical bulletproof vest, a helmet, and a single translucent in-ear tactical headset, but did not give them a weapon.

Before leaving, Gu Ji reminded him that the federal police should find Mrs. Sunglasses as soon as possible.

After all, having one more drug dealer as a "hostage" in your hand means you have one more hole card for negotiation.

Milburn said easily through the intercom headset: "Don't worry, Torreon is so big, all the checkpoints out of the city have been closed, they can't escape! Let's go!"

With an order, the convoy's engines roared at the same time.

Compared with the federal police, the National Guard is a semi-military force after all, and its equipment has been directly upgraded to a higher level. The entire combat team has a total of seven vehicles and a total of 35 people, six of which are armed pickups equipped with Israeli Negev light machine guns. The ride is a Hummer M1152 off-road vehicle equipped with bulletproof steel plates, equipped with a US military M249 squad machine gun.

In terms of individual equipment, not only are the protective gear more comprehensive, but the G36 assault rifles used are also fully equipped with front grips, collimating or telescopic optical sights, and muzzle brakes.

Gu Ji also caught a glimpse of the snipers carrying the Barrett M107A1 large-caliber anti-materiel rifle, and the fire support team using the self-developed FX-05 automatic rifle developed by Mexico with a grenade launcher attached underneath.

To be honest, this is the first time he has seen a police force carrying such heavy firepower in internal operations, except for arresting Sun Hengfei and Zhao Wenwu.

But yes.

What equipment does the drug dealer have?
Fully automatic weapons, grenades, RPG rockets, heavy machine guns, plus self-made armored vehicles, only tanks and artillery.

If you don't bring some "ruthless goods", you probably won't even be able to beat the skin!

Drive out from the police headquarters, because the federal police are under martial law to arrest drug dealers, there are very few vehicles on the streets in the city, and they quickly pass through the checkpoint to the wild.

Along the way, Gu Ji looked at the satellite map on his mobile phone while helping Milburn guide the way.

Just as the convoy entered Durango State, the task progress bar in the lower left corner of his sight suddenly jumped twice.

[The number of civilian deaths on the current flight: 4/20]

Suddenly two people died?
Don't even think about it, it must be the hands of drug dealers!

He hastily pressed the intercom button.

"Captain Milburn, please speed up, the drug dealer should have found the flight passengers by now!"

"Okay, don't worry."

"Mr. Yasen, the drug dealer didn't get any news from us, so he shouldn't have found the passenger so soon, right?"

Betty, who was sitting in the back row, bit her lip and asked worriedly.

Of course, Gu Ji couldn't just say that he found out from the game mission, "The car we drove to Torreon belonged to a drug dealer. They only need to check the license plate number to know who it is and where it is. Let the drone Search along the vicinity of that area, and the location of the plane will be found in no time!"

"Oh my God, then what are we going to do when we go back, wouldn't it be better to hand it over to the police and the army!"

"To shut up!"

When Riddle heard that the drug dealer might have spotted the passenger, he was frightened and complained casually, but Gu Ji called him back on the spot.

Saleh frowned.

"Then if we go back now, will we be in vain?"

"Yes, so I don't intend to go back the same way."

Gu Ji knew that the drug dealer would definitely find the passenger, so when he pointed out the direction to Milburn just now, he changed the direction in advance.

He was going to intercept and rescue the drug dealers on their way back to take the passengers.

Because once people are taken to the lair of drug dealers, they will not only face more armed drug dealers, but also have more ammunition and firepower. At that time, the interception battle will become a CQB battle, and it will be a hell-level CQB.

If I remember correctly.

When the second week was surrounded by drug dealers at the end, the convoy came from the southwest of the grassland.

According to the satellite map display.

Mexico is sparsely populated, with scattered towns and few major roads.

Therefore, they ran all the way south along the state highway. If they speeded up, they would have a chance to catch up with the drug dealers starting from the dirt road. After all, it is not so easy to transfer hundreds of passengers from the wild.

Half an hour later, the scenery on both sides of the road changed from a semi-desert to a grassland, and was gradually replaced by a tree-covered hillside.

The bare, huge pinnacle stands not far away.

Gu Ji has been staring at the satellite map, calculating the time from the crash point of the plane to the road. Perhaps because the map navigation knowledge attached to the course imprint has not been completely forgotten, he roughly calculated the approximate time and direction of the drug dealer driving from the forest to the road. Location.

"It should be almost here..."

He immediately picked up the binoculars, pressed the passenger window, and looked out into the wild.

But the drug traffickers team didn't notice it, but saw a white Toyota SUV parked on the grass next to the road. Unexpectedly, there was also a young man in a white vest and a peaked cap on the back of the window of the co-pilot, observing with a telescope. them.

"Captain Milburn, there is a problem with the vehicle ahead!!"
