Chapter 723 Terrorist Attack
Xiao Peng wanted to see what was going on with the guy on the ground, and the two police cars stopped directly next to Xiao Peng and the two, and Xiao Peng's face turned green: Hold the grass, this Gallic law and order is not so good, why did the police come so quickly?
But what happened next was different from what Xiao Peng imagined, the policemen who jumped out of the police car were all holding guns, but the muzzle of the gun was pointed at the guy with a knife lying on the ground, and at the same time waved his hand to himself and Youmei, signaling the two to retreat.
A policeman cautiously approached the guy lying on the ground step by step, and seeing that there was no movement, he went up and touched the guy's carotid artery, and after a while he raised his head and said to his companion: "It's dead!"
Hearing his words, several policemen turned their heads to look at Xiao Peng together, and Xiao Peng was anxious: "Hey! You see, he is going to attack us, and I am defending myself!"
A policeman nodded: "Sir, don't be afraid, you are helping us." This is a gangster, he has already slashed several people in the street just now. You have subdued him, reducing the probability of civilians and police being injured, and we should thank you. Well, when we came over, the dashcam and the body cam recorded the scene just now, so you won't be fine. β
Xiao Peng let out a sigh of relief after hearing this, wow, this Gallic police is still upright enough in addition to being a little inefficient!
"Well, in that case, can we go?" Xiao Peng asked.
The policeman who took the lead shook his head: "This case has been handled as a terrorist case. After a while, someone from the authorities will come, and the scene will be cordoned off, so you will wait here for a while to be questioned by the authorities, okay?"
Xiao Peng was very helpless, but there was no way to do it, after accepting a simple inquiry from the police, such as what name, age, nationality, etc., the police ignored Xiao Peng and began to maintain order at the scene.
Xiao Peng came to Youmei's side: "Youmei, are you okay?"
Yumi shook her head: "I'm fine, I'm just scared, if you hadn't reacted fast enough just now, I'm afraid I would have been cut." β
Xiao Peng smiled: "The woman who wants to hurt me should step on my corpse first." β
After hearing this, You Mei hugged Xiao Peng tightly, the Gallic policeman was also very interesting, standing aside and giving Xiao Peng a thumbs up, I don't know if he was praising Xiao Peng's skills or praising what Xiao Peng said.
Yumi asked, "Honey, why can't we leave?" β
Xiao Peng smiled bitterly: "No way, now Gaul is also a bow cup snake shadow, and this matter has been listed as a terrorist attack case." It is not just the police to deal with this matter, but the union of several departments, which is inherently inefficient in the Gallic public service, and the sum of several inefficient departments means that it is less efficient. Let's go sit in the car and wait. β
After Xiao Peng finished speaking, he said hello to the policeman, and sat in the car with You Mei and waited slowly.
This Nima Europe is now under constant terrorist attacks, and the target is either the Eagle State or Gaul.
Gaul has suffered a series of serious terrorist attacks in the past few years, such as the 2015 Charlie Hebdo headquarters massacre, which killed 130 people, and the 2016 Nice 2016 when terrorists hit people with trucks, killing more than 80 people in one go, and the explosion of the Stade de France, which also killed hundreds of peopleγγγγγγ
And that's just the big terrorist attacks, and the number of casualties is endless.
Although Gaul has the lowest sense of presence among the five major countries in the United Nations, Gaul actually prides itself on being the protector of North Africa. He has garrisons in Algeria, Egypt and other countries. North Africa's prosperity, stability, and even control of North Africa is a long-standing tradition in Gaul.
Of course, there are drawbacks to this, that is, almost all of the North African countries are Muslims, and a large number of people have settled in Gaul, coupled with the turbulent Middle East and the influx of refugees, the Muslim population in Gaul has continued to rise, and 10% of the country's total population is now Muslim. If this trend continues, it is possible that Gaul will become 'Francistan' in the future.
And this Gaul is really not as cute as it seems from the outside, he is one of the first partners of the Stars and Stripes to attack Syria, and he is also a former colonial power with deep roots in Syria. This is unacceptable to Muslims in their country. Especially now that the economic situation in Gaul is getting worse and worse, and unemployment remains high, these are breeding grounds for extremism.
However, it is also said that Gaul is now a soldier, in fact, many cases should not be considered terrorist attack cases, for example, we often see reports that in Europe and other countries, cases of refugees and local girls often occur. Such cases have occurred many times in Gaul, but such cases have been included in the category of terrorist attacks in Gaul.
In fact, this really has nothing to do with terrorists, do you think, those refugees used to live in conservative Islamic countries, and suddenly they went to open Western countries, and saw the big girls wearing skirts and exposing their thighs, according to their teachings, these women are all JI women, and they are dressed like this to seduce men, saying that they are strong?
NOW ZHENGFU IS VERY DILIGENT IN CARRYING OUT AIR STRIKES IN SYRIA, ROUND AFTER ROUND. A large number of civilian casualties were caused, so these terrorists used the logic of 'sitting', and you let my civilians die? I will make you Gallic civilians pay for your crimes, so that the terrorist attacks will happen more and more diligently; then the Gallic Zhengfu will use this excuse to continue or even increase the air strikes in Syria, and then the terrorists will also speed up the terrorist attacks, and finally a vicious circle will be formed.
The police at the scene were quite efficient, and soon blocked the street and evacuated the crowd. However, the 'relevant departments' have not yet arrived.
Xiao Peng comforted You Mei vigorously in the car, and when he was about to fall asleep, a line of motorcades came at high speed, and the people who came down after him made Xiao Peng cry and laugh.
The car in front was better, and the people who got down were a few people wearing suits and leather shoes, and down the car behind was a car of armed men wearing helmets and body armor, black clothes, long guns and short guns, and then look at the epaulettes, the round epaulettes have the letters 'GIGN' written on them.
Xiao Peng has already begun to scold the street in his heart, this Gaul is really a snake bite for a year and afraid of the well rope for ten years.
I didn't even determine whether the case was a neurotic or a terrorist attack, so I called the special service team of the state gendarmerie?
This 'GIGN' is a special commando team specializing in anti-terrorist activities, because they always wear black when performing tasks, so the common people are used to calling them 'men in black' commandos, in fact, they have a louder nickname, called 'Sword in front of the Arc de Triomphe'. Those who have played Counter-Strike should be impressed by him, the so-called 'Four'γγγγγγ
This is just a suspected terrorist attack, but they were used, as for it?
And the people in suits said something to the police who maintained order at the scene, and the police took their law enforcement recorder to show one of the men in suits, and the men in suits looked in the direction of Xiao Peng's car while watching.
Xiao Peng patted You Mei in his arms: "You Mei, you wait for me in the car." β
Yumi was stunned: "Where are you going?"
Xiao Peng smiled and pointed to the man in the suit who was walking towards them: "I'm afraid someone came to ask me for questioning." β
You Mei saw the man in the suit and said to Xiao Peng, "I'll be with you." β
Xiao Peng nodded, opened the car door and got out of the car, and Yumi also walked over, grabbed his arm and leaned on him.
The man in the suit walked over, looked at Xiao Peng and said, "Hello, is it Mr. Xiao from Huaxia?"
Xiao Peng nodded: "Who are you?"
The man in the suit habitually took out a business card and handed it to Xiao Peng: "I'm Nicolas Hollande of the Gallic National Anti-Terrorism Center, and it's a pleasure to meet you." β
Xiao Peng took the business card, tsk, this business card is still very exquisite, public servants printing such business cards, is this a waste of national resources?
The Gallic National Anti-Terrorism Center, a department established in Gaul in 2017, had to be established because of the increasing number of terrorist attacks, and the main task of this department is to provide strategic guidance on intelligence to the counter-terrorism department, ensuring the smooth flow of intelligence between departments, but not interfering in specific operations.
To put it bluntly, this is a coordination department, and if you can serve in this department, everyone in it is full of exquisite people, and Nikolai is no exception.
When he first saw Xiao Peng's car, he didn't think anything, Youmei's car was not expensive, but when he saw Xiao Peng, he had an extra heart, took a closer look, looked at Xiao Peng's clothes, and then looked at Youmei's clothes next to him, and noticed Xiao Peng's watch when Xiao Peng took the business card.
It is said that details determine success or failure, and Nikolai has now decided that he should have a better attitude towards Xiao Peng ------ not offend the rich, which is a common principle in Western countries.
Seeing Xiao Peng take the business card thoughtfully, Nikolai asked, "Mr. Xiao, is there anything wrong with this business card?"
Xiao Peng shrugged: "Oh, it's nothing, it's just that in our country, ordinary civil servants don't use business cards." β
Nikolai laughed: "Mr. Xiao, I see, you think we are a bit extravagant, don't you? Believe me, we are much better than our neighbors." β
Xiao Peng was stunned for a moment, and laughed knowingly, his hobby of this Nikolai was much better, at least it was not as rigid as he imagined. Then again, the Gauls really refused to let go of the opportunity to disgust the Eagle Kingdom at any time.
Since Nikolai said this, Xiao Peng asked curiously, "Nikolai, what does this mean?"
Nikolai said: "Everyone knows that the corruption of the army is the natural enemy of combat effectiveness, and I can't imagine that the army of any country can be more corrupt than the army of the Eagle Country!"
Xiao Peng asked curiously, "Why do you say that?"
Nikolai said: "You know that their Ministry of Defence spends half a million pounds a year on toilet paper, there are more generals than tanks in the army, and in the combat unit, the average 6.4 officers manage a soldier. β
Xiao Peng thought about it for a while: "Actually, this matter is not surprising, we Huaxia has also experienced such a stage, you may not know, our Huaxia has experienced several major disarmaments, in fact, non-disarmament is not issued, in the early days of reform and opening up, the army was too bloated, and there was even a situation of typists at the battalion level during that period." Isn't that the same situation as you said about the Eagle Country now? β
Nikolai shook his head: "It's different, you know? Now the Eagle Country's annual military expenditure ranks third in the world, second only to the Stars and Stripes Country and Huaxia, but the Eagle Country has less than 150,000 soldiers!
"In the past, the Eagle Country was mainly served as military officers by nobles, which led to these people mastering a lot of social resources, and until now, the officers of the Eagle Country have basically become a hereditary replacement model. Now that the Eagle Nation is declining, it is too difficult to maintain such a large army, but how easy is it to dismantle the almost hereditary and entangled officer families with various forces? So after thinking about it, the Eagle Army has handed over the glorious task of reducing military expenditures to the grassroots soldiers, and the scale of the Eagle Army has been reduced by more than ten times, and the number of officers has increased dozens of times, and now the Eagle Army is less than 150,000 people, with more than 360 generals alone, and less than 200 tanks in the whole army, well, two generals command a tank, so this Eagle Country, tsk, is a waste. β
Xiao Peng laughed out loud when he heard this: "Nikolai, you are an interesting person, shouldn't you come here to ask me what happened here?
Nikolai lowered his voice and showed a smile: "Mr. Xiao, everything has been investigated. This matter has nothing to do with you, on the contrary, we want to thank you for your help, I don't know what Mr. Xiao's profession is? Maybe we will have other opportunities to cooperate in the future?"
Xiao Peng suddenly realized when he heard this, oh, this is an ambitious man.
In the West, all politicians have to maintain relations with the capitalists, and only with the support of capital can there be further development, and Nikolai should see that his economic situation is good, and he wants to see if there can be further 'mutual assistance in the cause'.
Xiao Peng laughed when he thought of this: "Nikolai, I don't have a business card, so let's introduce myself." I'm a horse ranch and a jockey, and I'm here to compete in the Arc de Triomphe Grand Prix. And this one, it was my girlfriend Yume Lampo, who had encountered such an unhappy thing today, which frightened my girlfriend, and I made a move in front of her, although it was to protect her, but after all, it was still a human life. So I'd like to go first, and if you're interested, how about we see you at the Arc de Triomphe?"
