Chapter 2098: Chemical Weapons Attack

"Do we have a choice now?" said Silver Wolf Michelle with a frown. 2. "Even if he doesn't have conclusive evidence that we did it, we can't afford to take the risk." ”

"Then we'll have to take on this damn mission. I felt that this mission was very problematic, and Mr. K wanted us to protect and rescue the investigation team on the one hand. On the other hand, it is necessary to prevent this investigation team from obtaining the truth, and even to eliminate them for this. And if we do what he asks, there's a good chance we'll get into new trouble. Lin Rui frowned.

"That's right. Killing a member of the investigation team is not part of an official mission. The silver wolf whispered, "If something happens, he won't help us carry it." Instead, it puts all the blame on us. But we can't refuse, because if we don't take on this task, we will be going to openly tear up our faces with the Americans. We would lose our largest customer today, and even the most conservative estimates would result in huge losses for the company.

Without funds, we can't do anything. The mission in Africa could not be carried out normally, and the panther Guray could not cook without rice. And the Russian branch has just been created, and there is an urgent need for money there. Not to mention, the company has a lot of other expenses. If the U.S. military terminates the contract with us, the company will have to shut down for about three months at most. The silver wolf paced back and forth.

"The situation is so serious?" Lin Rui frowned.

"Previously, some of our actions in Africa were frustrated, so that our normal investments were not paid off, and our expenses continued to skyrocket. The consumption of weapons, equipment, and fuel is huge, and these are real money. Also, the brothers worked the battlefield to earn real hard-earned money. We can't even withhold their salaries, right? If we do, the brothers will be chilled and the company will have to break up. Therefore, the expense items that should be spent should not be missing at all.

Our balance of payments, until recently, was a little better, if by this time the Americans canceled the contract with us. This means that we will suffer significant financial losses. If so, I don't know how long Kuroshima will last. The silver wolf sighed and said, "You know that in terms of management, I am not as good as the dragon fat man. ”

Lin Rui said in a low voice, "But you did your best." I know you've been thinking about your brethren. I'm going to get ready now, and I'll leave tomorrow. It's just a mission, and we'll get it done. ”

Silver Wolf nodded, "Be careful, I've heard that the situation in Iraq is also very bad. And the focus of our exhibition in the past few years has been on Africa, and we don't have much influence in the Middle East. After you have passed, there will be no backup. ”

"Anyway, you have to try. Lin Rui got up and said, "I'll go back and prepare." ”

The silver wolf waved his hand wordlessly.

After returning to the O2 team's station, Lin Rui told the team members about this task. Crazy Horse said a little strangely, "We're going to the Middle East to protect a chemical weapons investigation team?"

"It's not just about protecting, it's about covertly restricting and stopping them from hiding chemical weapons from Iraqi terrorists. The dark thing about this task is that if they show up, we have to get rid of them all. They then create the false impression that these people died at the hands of terrorists. Because that batch of chemical weapons belonged to the Americans. We do not know when or by what means it fell into the hands of these terrorists. And that's what the Americans are trying so hard to hide. Lin Rui replied.

"It doesn't feel good, we did what the CIA told us last time, and it didn't end well. Crazy Horse shook his head. "I'm really fed up with them. ”

"I'm the same, nobody likes them. But this time, we have to do a good job. Lin Rui said in a low voice, "Because everyone in the company is involved." Actuary Shogishi, you are responsible for reading the intelligence information conveyed by Mr. K. And for comparative inspection, I'll ask Cobain to help too. Time is pressing, and we must seize the time to understand the basic situation. ”

Shogishi nodded, "According to the information, the chemical weapons investigation and evidence collection team is missing near Kirkuk, Iraq. At that time, they had not yet arrived in Tazai, the town they needed to investigate. ”

"Can you confirm their final location?" Lin Rui frowned.

"Their last location was near the Kharida River, which is a small channel that belongs to a small tributary of the Tigris. But according to intelligence, their signals disappeared at the same time. In other words, it is possible that they have been kidnapped before that. Their kidnappers then deliberately directed them to the river, throwing their communications and tracking equipment into the river. This creates the illusion that their signal is disappearing from the river at the same time, and even rescue teams will follow this information to find it.

Most likely, the base of the extremists who kidnapped them was not near that river at all. It's just an illusion. Shogishi replied.

"It's also possible that the extremists are deliberately waiting for them there. Crazy Horse frowned, "I've worked with some similar investigative teams. Knowing their procedures, they take a variety of samples from places where they are suspected of being attacked by chemical weapons, such as air, water, and soil. In order to analyze the chemical agent components and evaluate the hazard level. That's why they go to the river. ”

"This shows that the extremist militants who kidnapped them also have a certain understanding of the actions of the investigation team. Either they have the same experience in this area, or they have eyeliner everywhere around this town and have received very reliable information. Lin Rui nodded.

"As for the extremists, the chemical weapons they have used so far include chlorine and low-grade mustard gas, although not very powerful. But the lethality to ordinary people is enormous. They recently carried out two chemical weapons attacks near the northern Iraqi city of Kirkuk, killing several people, injuring about 6oo others, and fleeing hundreds more. Most of the deaths are among children and the elderly, who are less resilient. Shogishi replied.

"It's good not the Vx poison. Crazy Horse shook his head, "How did they spread all these chemical gases?"

"Through rockets, they eject these agents through homemade rockets, and when they explode, they scatter the poison and cause casualties. There may be detachable MLRS, or small rocket launchers. These extremist militants have undergone very basic training and know how to use improvised methods to launch rockets. Usually it's just a bracket, erected diagonally, and then an electronic ignition. Although this kind of improvised shot, there is not much guarantee in accuracy. But it's certainly enough to spread chemicals. Shogishi nodded.
