Chapter 488: Cardoba (6,000 Chapters)
Cรณrdoba, a city in south-central Mexico, near Veracruz, the largest port in eastern Mexico, is also considered a large city.
The city is well connected in all directions, and most of the goods disembarking from the port of Veracruz pass through the city, which also drives the local economy and becomes a logistics city.
Moreover, the city is surrounded by no rainforest, located in a plain area, there is no suitable land for drug cultivation, and there are no Mexican drug dealers to set up plantations here, which is one of the few cities in Mexico with a small amount of drugs.
When Yu Zhiqian and others came to this city, all the vehicles that used to be busy with traffic were invisible, and the whole city entered a state of alert, with no pedestrians to be seen on the streets, and the whole street was empty like a song.
"Head, what's wrong with the city?"
Yu Zhiqian and the others were also taken aback by the situation in the city in front of them, some did not dare to enter the city, the empty streets, some garbage bags floating in the wind, looked like a forgotten city.
But the city can see traces of people's lives, which shows that the talent in this city has not been missing for long.
"The Mexicans aren't going to ambush us here, are they?" Yu Zhiqian and the others continued to look at the city a little nervously, the unknown enemy was the most terrifying.
"Probably not!"
Yu Zhiqian is not very sure, the intelligence in his hand shows that Mexico should not have any military strength in the central region, which is why Yu Zhiqian has to go to the central region, because the defense here is weak and easy to break through.
"Instructor, drone!"
"Yes!"
The instructor quickly lifted the drone into the air and flew towards the city of Caldoba, Yu Zhiqian and others were less than a kilometer away from the entrance of the city, and they could clearly see that some of the cold drinks that had fallen on the ground had not yet melted, and some of the drinks were still bubbling cold, as if they had just fallen not long ago.
"Head, there's someone in the front room!" The instructor pointed to a room on the screen, and could see someone hiding in the window, looking out cautiously, but he couldn't be sure whether it was the Mexican soldier who was preparing to attack Yu Zhiqian and the others, or an ordinary person.
"Yang Tianci!"
"Head!"
"Take two of them and get this man back and ask what happened in the city!"
"Yes!"
After Yang Tianci received Yu Zhiqian's order, he took two people and quickly touched the city of Caldoba.
The instructor found that the building belonged to some self-built houses on the edge of the entrance to the city, and there were no high points around, and the buildings were not dense, so Yu Zhiqian and the others could give Yang Tianci some support at any time, and they didn't have to worry about being attacked.
"Yan Qi, Mao three hundred, you pay attention to vigilance, once there is any accident, immediately support Yang Tianci!"
"Roger!"
"Dai Qiang, take a closer look around and see if there are any snipers!"
"Roger!"
"Instructor, your drone is looking around, looking for suspicious places, by the way, can the scanning mode be turned on now?"
"Head, it's hard to tell the people in the room, and if you open it, there may be an accident."
"Then wait a minute!"
Carefully sailing the ship of ten thousand years, Yu Zhiqian's ability to live to this day has something to do with his cautious style.
Before doing anything, Yu Zhiqian will think carefully and will not act rashly, otherwise Yu Zhiqian's current corpse may have nourished the land of Africa.
Two minutes later.
"Yang Tianci, how are you doing?"
"Head, nothing abnormal!"
"Stay safe!"
"Roger!"
Yang Tianci was very careful with every step, and when he passed through the open area, the speed was very fast, and the three of them formed a search triangle team to move forward, each of whom was responsible for guarding one direction to prevent a sudden attack.
"Safety!"
When Yang Tianci touched the door, he reported safety again, Yu Zhiqian signaled the instructor to use the instructor to observe the situation, and the instructor immediately flew the drone over the self-built house and turned on the scanning mode: "There are three people in the house, and there are no weapons in their hands!" โ
When the drone turns on the scanning mode, it needs to hover, and it was afraid to turn on it because it was worried that the people in the room were preparing to attack Yu Zhiqian and the Mexican soldiers of others, but now Yang Tianci and others are next to the house, so they hover in mid-air to turn on the scanning mode.
"Yang Tianci, if it's civilians, it's okay to bring them back!"
"Yes!"
Yang Tianci looked at the two comrades-in-arms, one left and one right stood at the door, and finally Yang Tianci kicked the door open, and the two people at the door entered the house one after the other, and began to check the situation in the house.
"Ground floor safe!"
"Second floor security!"
"On the third floor!"
"Stay safe!"
"Roger!"
Yang Tianci walked in the front, the muzzle of the gun was pointed at the staircase, and he went up the stairs on the third floor little by little, Li Meng in the middle was facing the staircase, paying attention to the position behind him for Yang Tianci, and the last Zheng Qiang was in charge of the back of the hall to prevent the enemy from suddenly popping up behind.
The three of them cautiously walked up to the third floor, and in the corner of the third floor, a Mexican couple curled up in the corner to protect their children.
"Stairs are safe!"
"In the room to your left!"
"Roger!"
Yang Tianci and Zheng Qiang approached the door of the door on the left side of the third floor, Li Meng stood in the middle, gently twisted the handle, signaling that he was locked, Li Meng gestured, signaling that he was going to kick the door, Yang Tianci nodded and Zheng Qiang pointed their guns at the door.
"Bang!"
Li Meng kicked the door open, and Yang Tianci took the lead and rushed into the room: "Don't move!" โ
"Don't kill us, don't kill us, it's all our money!"
The man of this family protected his wife and children behind him, held a stack of money above his head in his hand, and begged Yang Tianci and the others bitterly.
"Head, it's an ordinary family!"
"Received, bring them back, be careful not to use violence!"
"Roger!"
Yang Tianci walked up to this Mexican and said in a low voice: "Don't be afraid, we won't kill you, we have some questions to ask you, can you come with us?" โ
"I don't know anything, please don't kill us!"
The Mexican man didn't listen to what Yang Tianci said at all, and kept begging bitterly.
"Head, this man doesn't believe us, what should we do? Are you going to kidnap him? โ
"No, do you have dollars on you?" Yu Zhiqian doesn't like to embarrass civilians, after all, these things have nothing to do with these civilians, the fault is that the Mexican government still has the army, and for these civilians, it is a calamity.
"Yes!"
"Give him five hundred dollars, let him go with you, and you'll be back soon!"
"Good!"
Yang Tianci listened to Yu Zhiqian's words, took out five dollars, and panicked in front of this man: "Five hundred dollars, as long as you follow me, we have to ask you a few questions, as long as you go, the money is yours!" After finishing speaking, Yang Tianci put the money in front of the man.
Sure enough, when the dollar was put down, the Mexican man stopped begging for mercy and looked up at Yang Tianci, his eyes full of incredulity.
"Come with us now, the money is yours, do you understand? If you understand, get up now! โ
Yang Tianci talked to this Mexican man again, and the Mexican man looked at the money and then at Yang Tianci, and he didn't know how to make a decision for a while.
"Don't, don't go, you won't come back if you go!" The woman next to her stopped the man, afraid that the man would follow Yang Tianci because of the money.
This is often the case in Mexico, where the drug dealer gives you a little money, which is a settling-in payment, and then you have to work for the drug dealer.
The man reluctantly looked at the five hundred dollars, this money, for ordinary people, is also a rich income, but compared to his own life, this man still chooses to refuse.
"Head, this Mexican won't want to follow me!"
"How much money did you give!"
"Five hundred dollars!"
Five hundred dollars is reluctant to go, which shows that this man is really unwilling to go, although five hundred dollars is only more than 3,000 yuan when converted into RMB, but the income of ordinary people in Mexico is not high.
Yang Tianci had no choice but to report the news to Yu Zhiqian, and after thinking for a while, Yu Zhiqian thought for a while: "In this way, Tianci, you come to convey my question and tell him that as long as he answers our question truthfully, the five hundred dollars are his!" โ
"Good!"
Yang Tianci squatted in front of this man and put away his weapon: "Don't be afraid, now I ask you to ask you, you answer and tell me, don't be nervous, as long as you say it, the five hundred dollars are yours, is it okay?" โ
The man finally spoke, looked at the five hundred dollars and nodded: "I'm just an ordinary driver, I don't know anything else!" โ
"OK, I'm not going to ask you any questions, just some simple questions!"
"Good!"
Yu Zhiqian's first question was about this city, and after Yang Tianci heard Yu Zhiqian's question clearly, he looked at the man in front of him: "What about the people in this city, I mean, this city was originally like this, or has it just become like this!" โ
"People in the city have been driven home by government workers, and they told us that we are not allowed to go out during this time, and we will wait until we are notified to go out, otherwise we will be arrested!" The man didn't have anything to hide, and said it directly.
After Yang Tianci heard this, he immediately reported to Yu Zhiqian: "Head, everyone in this city has been forcibly confined to their homes by the government and is not allowed to go out, if they go out, they will be arrested!" โ
"Is that so?"
Yu Zhiqian was stunned for a moment, the government ordered that no one should go out, which was a rule he had never heard of, thought about the question, and asked the second question.
"Is there any army stationed in your city today?"
Hearing this question, the Mexican man looked at Yang Tianci with a confused expression, not understanding what Yang Tianci wanted to ask in this question, Yang Tianci communicated with him for a while, and finally let the man understand what he meant.
"No, it was the police who informed us today, the police patrolled the streets, constantly shouting, telling us not to go out, as if there were some important people going to pass through here, I was just curious about who was going to pass here, so I observed the situation outside at the window, I really didn't mean to!"
The Mexican man still looked at Yang Tianci with some fear, a little stumbling when he spoke, and his words were still a little unclear.
"Got it, God, give him the money, we're ready to go into the city!"
After Yu Zhiqian asked a few more innocuous questions, he roughly understood what was going on in this city, and couldn't help touching his chin, this Silva is really a talent.
Knowing that he knew that he couldn't stop himself, he ordered him to pass directly, so that there would be no unnecessary casualties
However, Yu Zhiqian believes that this guy will definitely not let himself go so easily, after all, he has just killed so many Mexican soldiers, and as a Mexican officer, he should be eager to kill himself with his own hands now.
After Yang Tianci returned, the convoy entered the city, and the whole city was in a strange quiet, occasionally hearing some strange sounds, and some loudspeakers playing some music, as if pouring out their dissatisfaction.
And Yu Zhiqian can feel a little bit, that is, in this city, there are eyes staring at him everywhere, and the people in this city are very curious, what kind of big people pass through here, and they need to be under martial law in the whole city.
"Head, shall we go straight through the city?"
After Yu Zhiqian heard this, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly: "Of course not, since you are here, let's do something meaningful, first go and fill up the gas in the car, and then have a meal, and only when you are full will you have the strength to work!" โ
Yu Zhiqian squinted his eyes, thinking about what Silva was going to do next, but now from Silva's performance, it looked a bit like surrender, but his intuition told Yu Zhiqian that things were not over yet, and there were still things waiting for him.
Thinking of this, Yu Zhiqian dialed the phone of a broker.
"Hey, man, you guys are really good, you guys made such a big deal in Mexico, and you're still alive, I heard you caught a Navy SEAL? Interested in selling them all to me? As long as it's a living Navy SEAL, I can give you a satisfactory price! โ
For the first time, Yu Zhiqian heard that Navy SEAL soldiers can still sell for money, and these soldiers are not real seals, but they can still be sold for a high price?
"What do you want these people to do?"
"Of course it works, many people in those areas where the oil is produced want to have them as hostages, to threaten each other or to promote themselves! How about it, are you willing to do it, I have the channel to transport them out safely! โ
"Forget it, I'm not interested in this matter, I need your help, it's still the old price, but this time I only have one request!"
"Old price? Man, you're famous now, I think you should increase the price, after all, it's a very dangerous thing to provide you with information now, and I don't want to be wanted by several countries! โ
"Huh? Are you sitting on the ground? โ
"You can think the same way, but now in Mexico, only I can provide you with information, believe me, you can't find anyone but me who can give you useful information!"
After Yu Zhiqian heard this, the killing intent in his eyes flashed, but he was quickly relieved, after all, the broker is just a businessman after all, this kind of thing is very normal, he and this broker have a good cooperation, and it doesn't matter if they have an extra amount of money.
"I can give you the money, but you have to give me a guarantee, the information I want must be the most accurate!"
After hearing Yu Zhiqian's words, the broker on the other end of the phone immediately laughed: "Believe me, I am a professional, no matter what information I can get for you now, do you want Silva's information?" I have first-hand information, but there are big people behind him! โ
"No, I don't have any interest in him, he's just a loser, I want to know the movement of all the troops in Mexico, even if it's just a company!"
After hearing Yu Zhiqian's request, the broker was also stunned for a moment: "All the army?" โ
"Yes! I also know the movements of all the armies, the land, the sea and the air, and even some secret forces, and even where a large number of police officers are gathered! โ
The other side was silent for a long time, and finally slowly spoke: "This is a big project, and you need to report to you at any time, this money is not cheap, you know, my people are at risk of passing on the news to me, they need to settle in on one side, this is not my price increase, this is the rule!" โ
"I know that if you can provide me with any combat force movements of all the troops and police in Mexico in the next few hours, I will give you three million, and at the same time I will give you one and a half million as a deposit!"
The price of three million, this money, is more expensive than the price of the intelligence that Yu Zhiqian bought from anywhere in the past, the broker acted unconsciously, and after thinking for a while, after making sure that he could eat this list, he agreed: "No problem, wait for my good news, I will definitely make you satisfied, this money is still an old account!" โ
"No problem!"
After Yu Zhiqian hung up the phone, he quickly opened the website of a Swiss bank, and then entered a series of codes and several layers of passwords, and then entered the amount of transfer.
Yu Dan, who was beside him, looked at Yu Zhiqian 15 followed by a series of numbers, and covered his mouth: "One and a half million US dollars? โ
"How?"
Yu Dan shook his head: "What did you buy and need one and a half million dollars?" โ
"Is it expensive?"
Yu Dan nodded vigorously, one and a half million US dollars, according to the current Sino-US exchange rate, it has reached about one to seven, that is, more than 10 million, more than 10 million is a super huge amount of money for ordinary people.
"Do you think our lives are worth $1.5 million?"
After Yu Zhiqian finished speaking, he continued to adjust the computer page to the live broadcast screen.
The location where Durrett was kidnapped has gathered the most elite bomb disposal experts in all of Mexico, and a group of people are constantly studying five timed and timed blasting devices, and the number of people in the live broadcast room has begun to dwindle.
After all, from the live broadcast to the present, except for the gimmick of the kidnapping of Mexican soldiers, there is no content, many viewers have been aesthetically fatigued, and at present, the Mexican group of bomb disposal personnel has not found any good way to crack it, and many people have swiped the barrage and said that they will come back in more than five hours.
The so-called coming back more than five hours later, that is, after the bomb exploded, the number of people in the live broadcast room is about 500,000, which is almost one-third of the peak number.
One and a half million people sounds like a lot, after all, on some domestic platforms, tens of millions of people watched online when an anchor started broadcasting, but with the fake data in China that I don't know how many people watched it, these 1.5 million people are all alive, which is already terrifying.
Through the mouths of these 1.5 million people, this matter will spread to ten, ten, and hundreds, and eventually more than 10 million, 20 million, or even more people will know about it.
"There is no pattern to these threads, and the arrangement is irregular, and every final lead is a place with explosives, so I suggest, fortunately, find a way to break this box and check the specific terminal inside before making a decision!"
After thinking for a long time, a bomb disposal expert slowly spoke, but was immediately opposed by everyone: "This box is a precision instrument, I can't find any link seams now, I don't know the situation inside, and I don't even know whether the explosion (object) inside is stable. โ
This statement was supported by many people, and in the end, the bomb disposal experts were divided into three or four factions, no one could convince anyone, they could only keep wasting time, and the masses watching the live broadcast finally had a real entertainment project, which was to watch a group of so-called bomb disposal experts fight together.
In the command, Silva, constantly rubbing his temples and perfecting his plan, is only a preliminary plan now, but according to the previous performance of Yu Zhiqian and others, they are not so easy to be caught, so they need to improve the whole plan.
"Sir!"
"What's the matter?"
"The target has entered Cรณrdoba!"
After Silva heard this, he picked up the document in his hand and looked through it carefully for a while: "How is the preparation over there in Cรณrdoba?" โ
"I have been notified, the staff over there have sent most of the residents of the city back to their houses, there are no people on the streets, and there will be no big casualties!"
"Well, that's good, by the way, what's going on with the bomb disposal specialists? Can you defuse all the bombs on the hostages? โ
Hearing this question, the staff officer shook his head: "There is still no news for the time being, the Navy SEALs and the cars are equipped with the same directional blasting devices as our soldiers, but we don't have any way to do this device, and we don't even have any clue!" โ
"And what about the American side, have their people figured it out?"
The staff officer still shook his head: "There is no news, the Americans have not given us any reply, but our liaison told us that the Americans have also gathered a group of professionals to conduct research, but there is still no progress!" โ
"Damn it!" Silva patted his head, what he was most worried about still happened, in fact, he had vaguely guessed that this would be the result before, after all, Yu Zhiqian was too confident, as if he had eaten himself, and he was not worried that these directional blasting devices would be dismantled by himself.
"Sir, what are we going to do?"
"What to do? Continue to let people study, there are still more than five hours, can't the talents of a country crack a directional blasting device? โ
"Yes!" The staff officer saluted and left the headquarters, passing on Silva's orders.
Silva stood in front of the big screen, and the satellite was still tracking the traces of Yu Zhiqian and others, and in the picture, the armored car of Yu Zhiqian and others slowly drove into a gas station.
"Damn, I really want to blow up this bunch of debris now!"
