Chapter 522: Contingency Plan
Margaret witnessed the riots with her own eyes, but was too far away to know what was going on, only that the Thorne military police had opened fire on the Chinese merchants.
"Jack, do you know what's going on there?"
"Miss Margaret, I'm just a videographer, and I don't have any special abilities, so I don't know what's going on." Jack replied helplessly.
"We should really go over and have a look." Margaret muttered to herself.
"No, dispel your terrible thoughts, this is the battlefield, it will fight at any time, and bullets don't have eyes."
Jack was frightened, Thorne's military police were not police officers on Hong Kong Island, and reporters could shoot whatever they wanted.
"Look at what scares you, I'm just talking about it, and I'm not really going to ...... Oh God, what are they doing! β
Margaret suddenly exclaimed, Jack was used to her fuss, and said disapprehantly, "Don't be nervous, what's the big deal...... Oh God, they're going to take Chinese businessmen hostage! β
The middle-aged advice was adopted by the Thorne military police, who forced the Chinese merchants to stand by the docks, forming a human wall in front of the military police.
"the horse!"
Seeing this scene, the hidden dragons were all blown up.
Dewey and others also imagined that Thorne's military and police would use Chinese businessmen as hostages, but they felt that it was unlikely, after all, they were not terrorists and would not dare to do such an angry thing.
Unexpectedly, they underestimated the shamelessness of the Thorne military police, and actually turned civilians into hostages.
This is Chi Guoguo's terrorist act!
"Listen to the Chinese army on the other side, I order you, in the name of the chief of staff of the Thorne Defense Force, to immediately stop the aggression and withdraw from our territory, otherwise these Chinese merchants will be sentenced to death for espionage!"
The sound of loudspeakers echoed throughout the docks, and the reporters were all stunned by what they saw.
"Fack! Charlie, turn off the camera, this can't be recorded! Mike Gershwin hurriedly shouted.
No matter what the reason, using civilians as hostages in any era and any country will be strongly condemned, in contrast, Qianlong's use of prisoners of war as shields is no longer a problem.
What they want to show the world is how Huaxia bullies the weak Thorne, not how Thorne carries out terrorism!
"Shameless! It's just outrageous! How can they put civilians at the forefront of the battle! Margaret was furious, pointed down and said, "Jack, I'll record all of this, I'm going to expose them shameless bastards!" β
"Miss Margaret, I'm recording, but with all due respect, even if I do, I won't play it in the station." Jack said.
"They don't broadcast it, I broadcast it myself, and I'm going to put it all on Twitter and let the world know the ugly face of the Thorne military police." Margaret said angrily.
"Twitter has to die, I'm afraid they will delete your video too, and it's not the first time they've done this kind of thing, such as Hong Kong Island that year." Jack said.
"There will always be a place to broadcast, if I am in a hurry, I will hand these over to Huaxia and let them take them to the United Nations, I will see who can stop them!" Margaret said.
"That's no problem, I'm sure Huaxia will be happy to receive these videos, and maybe I'll give you an award, but it's a pity that Western countries may not recognize it."
Although Jack loves to be verbose, his hands are not idle, he gave a panoramic view of the scene, and continued: "Thorne is still very smart here, and he knows that he is accused of being a spy for a Chinese businessman. β
"Hmph, does Thorne think he is the United States, Huaxia will send so many spies to such a small broken country, who will believe his nonsense." Margaret said disapprerovingly.
"There will always be people who believe it, but believe it or not, now it is difficult to ride a tiger and become those mercenaries invited by Huaxia. Their mission is to rescue the Chinese merchants, and now there is definitely no way to save them, I am afraid there is no other way than to retreat. Jack said.
"yes, they don't have a way to do it."
Margaret had to admit it, and then sighed, and a thought suddenly popped into her mind, if it was Wei's troops, there should be a solution.
Well, there will definitely be!
The Chinese merchants became hostages, the speedboat could only stop, and the members of the Qianlong team were all angry.
Wei Laoshi said to Dewey: "Xian'er, implement the backup plan." β
Dewey nodded and said, "Execute the backup plan, Lao Shi, I'll leave it to you here." β
"Don't worry, leave it to me," Wei Laoshi said solemnly.
Hidden dragons never have only one set of combat plans, they will make as many anticipations as possible at the beginning of the operation, and will adjust the plan at any time whenever the situation changes.
Although it was considered extremely unlikely, the Buddha's battle plan still formulated Thorne's contingency plan to take the Chinese merchant as a hostage, otherwise the mule would not praise his plan for being detailed, after all, in the face of an opponent of Thorne's level, no matter how he fights, there is no challenge.
Now that Buddha's vision has come true, it's time to use a contingency plan.
Dewey beckoned the two mules, the chestnut god and the shepherd, and the four of them loaded their guns into waterproof bags, carried them behind their backs, put on their diving gear, and jumped into the water.
As long as it is mentioned in the plan, Qianlong will prepare corresponding equipment, and this time is no exception, in addition to a full set of diving equipment, the New Zealand embassy has also specially prepared underwater boosters.
Dewey and the others dive all the way to the bottom of the sea, activated the boosters, but did not swim directly to the dock, which would be too easy to be detected and would not be conducive to follow-up.
The four of them circled the bottom of the sea and came to the west side of the pier.
Thorne's economy is underdeveloped, and the biggest advantage is that there is no pollution, and the sea is extremely clear, and you can almost see it all the way.
However, although the water was clear, the workers on this side had already been scared away by the battle, and the attention of the military and police on the other side was on the speedboat, and no one noticed them.
Dewey led everyone ashore, looked around carefully, made sure that there was no one around, and quickly bent down and ran to the container not far away.
The four of them took off their diving suits and took the guns out of the waterproof bags, Dewey pointed to the top of the container and said, "Chestnut, shepherd, you go to set up a sniper position, and I will touch the two mules." β
"Okay, be careful."
The shepherd admonished, and Chestnut ran to the sniper spot that he had already seen, the highest part of the container cabinet.
This time, the two are not separated, they have to face hundreds of Thorne military police, although the combat strength is weak, but the snipers also need protection.
Here are four standard containers, each two meters high, and almost ten meters tall when stacked together.
If this is a flat high wall, Chestnut God and the shepherd will definitely not be able to climb it, but there is a place to borrow strength from the outside of the container itself, and there is a gap between the boxes, so it is not difficult to climb up.
In just a minute, the two of them had climbed to the top of the container, and from here they could see the Thorne military police in the northeast corner, as well as the Chinese businessmen who were forced to line up on the human wall.
"Xian'er, we're already in place." The shepherd is here
said in the channel.
"Okay, standby." Dewey replied.
"Wait a minute, there's a situation over there, I'll take a look."
The shepherd turned his binoculars to the roof outside the dock, looked at it and scolded in a low voice: "Grass, who I thought it was, it turned out to be those dead reporters!" Heyβold wet, guess who I saw, your Margaret! β
Wei Laoshi and Margaret already knew about it, and they used it to make fun of him at the beginning.
It's just that Wei Lao's wet body is not afraid of the shadow, so you won't be annoyed no matter what you say, but then everyone felt that it was boring, and no one mentioned it.
Unexpectedly, Margaret was actually here today, and the shepherd had the idea of joking again.
Soon, Wei Laoshi's voice came from the earphones: "Give me a hard job, where is so much nonsense!" β
"Why are you still in a hurry, I can't delay the business. I said, did you know that Margaret was here, so you vigorously encouraged Chestnut God to find the Golden Brigade? The shepherd continued to squirm.
He knew very well that Margaret would harass Wei Laoshi almost every day, reporting her whereabouts to him, and Wei Laoshi must not know that she was here.
"yes, I know, we just talked about it, do you have any opinions?" Wei Laoshi replied calmly.
The shepherd has never been able to be honest with him, no matter what you say, how can this joke continue?
"Uh, no comment."
"If you don't have an opinion, just work honestly for me!"
"Okay, listen to you."
The shepherd turned his telescope over Dewey and the two mules to help them control their surroundings.
As it turned out, this was purely superfluous, and the Thorne military and police had no sense of anti-special warfare at all, and everyone hid behind the Chinese businessmen, and a few people who were obviously commanders gathered together and hid behind a small house that seemed to be an equipment room.
But what puzzled the shepherd was that among the commanders, he actually found a Chinese man, who looked to be in his forties, and his body was a little fat, and he was talking to those commanders.
"Xian'er, find Commander Thorne, there is a Chinese man with them, there is a wound on the head, it seems that he has just been beaten, the preliminary judgment is that it is a representative of the Chinese businessman, and he is negotiating with the Thorne military police."
The shepherd told Dewey what he saw and what he guessed, and he made the final decision on what to do.
"Roger, report their location."
"At eleven o'clock, when you see that little house, they are in the back."
"See, it's a substation."
"yes, that's it."
"How's the situation around?"
"Safe, you can pass - no, wait a minute, someone has passed, pay attention to concealment!"
Dewey and the two mules were about to rush over when they all shrank back when they heard the shepherd's last warning.
Dewey took out his reflector, adjusted the direction in the corner, and observed the situation outside, only to see a Thorne officer hurrying to the back of the room with a prisoner of war.
He knew that this prisoner of war was sent back by Wei Laoshi, and the purpose was to paralyze the Thorne military police.
When the officer disappeared behind the room in the mirror, the shepherd said, "Now it's safe, ready, three, two, one, rush!" β
As soon as he finished speaking, Dewey and the two mules rushed out of cover and ran towards the substation.
