Chapter 537: Ransom

Regarding the capture of such a thing, it is not unheard of in the US military. In the anti-terrorist war for a long time, there have been many cases of American GIs being arrested, and those who have been caught, each of them has no good end.

Beheaded, throats cut, and even filmed these executions as threats to the US military leadership. It can be said that this kind of thing has a big shadow in the hearts of all American GIs.

However, Lin Dong was not prepared to do this, after all, this kind of practice would make their dragon souls notorious in the entire world, and it would not be beneficial to the development of dragon souls in the future.

"Wall, take them down. Reeves treated them, then got them something to eat and drink, and a few soldiers just had to watch. Lin Dong waved his hand and said.

"Okay, boss!"

Although what Wall said just now was very heavy, after listening to Lin Dong's order, he still took the four people down very simply.

There is no benefit in killing these four guys now, it is better to keep it and make a deal with the Americans, so that it can bring some benefits to Lin Dong and them.

At the headquarters of the U.S. Africa Command, the commander, Admiral Rodrisi, was frowning at this time.

All of this is out of their control. Who would have thought that a small mercenary group would be so difficult.

It's not just the special combat teams that can crush their own side on land, but even the air strikes can't help them.

With the power of the opponent's air defense weapons in the past, even the use of long-range missile bombardment may not be able to achieve much effect.

Unless a saturation strike is used, which is not something they can use, the Tanzanian government alone is unlikely to agree to do so.

At that time, it may really develop into a local war, and I am afraid that more countries and forces will be involved at that time, which is not in line with the interests of the United States in Africa.

You must know that many countries in Africa have great resistance to the actions of the United States, just like the just-concluded Belgian War.

Obviously, their great America is helping these guys achieve freedom and peace, but in the end, so many people stand up against them.

Not only the people of Villa, but many other countries are accusing them of unwarranted interference in the internal affairs of other countries.

This does not bode well for the newly stabilized Africa Command. He didn't want to let the newly established headquarters move to Germany, and then his African Command would be said to be unworthy of his fame!

"Commander, a telegram from the Ministry of Defense asking you to make a detailed report on this incident." A major officer walked in and handed Rodrith a paper.

"These bastards, before the operation, they wanted to teach those mercenaries who dared to challenge the United States a lesson, but now they have put the responsibility on my head, and even let me give an explanation to Washington and the people!"

A slap on the table, Rodrise roared.

Although he was angry, his heart was full of helplessness, he had actually prepared for this kind of thing in his heart, but he didn't think that he would fail before.

"Commander, the loss of one bomber, two fighters, and a drone, and most importantly, now our four pilots are still not heard from, if this matter is not handled well, I am afraid it will cause a lot of turmoil in the country.

And there are so many things that have happened in the United States during this period of time, and we must deal with them properly now. ”

The major officer looked at the furious Rodrith and reminded softly.

Rodrius's anger was suddenly suffocated, now this time is enough for him to be busy with Villa's affairs alone, you must know that now the country is preparing to send an ambassador to Villa, this is not a trivial matter, as the supreme commander of the Africa Command, he needs to do too much.

In normal times, the loss of two or three aircraft is not a big deal, and it will not cause any major impact in the country.

But now is the very moment, not to mention the loss of hundreds of soldiers in the Atlantic Ocean by the Second Fleet some time ago, the riots in New York two months ago, and the subsequent escape from Guantanamo Bay, all of which have completely aroused the hearts of the American people who have no sense of security, and now the White House is still trying to calm the people.

Now that this is happening again, how can this not make those politicians in the White House angry.

Rubbing his somewhat tingling temples, Rodrith asked, "Can you determine the situation of those four pilots, and how likely are they to survive?" ”

If the four pilots are really dead, then the other party's family is likely to let the military give an explanation, and then I am afraid that the matter will really get bigger.

The major officer listened and replied, "Judging from the information we have received, the four pilots have all successfully parachuted to escape before the plane crashes, but judging from their location, they may have fallen into the hands of the Dragon Soul Mercenary Regiment now."

Judging from the way the Dragon Soul Mercenary Group has been acting, the chances of their survival are really not high. After all, now that we have reached this level between the two sides, the other side is a mercenary, and the Geneva Treaty is not binding on them at all. ”

That's what Rodris actually thinks in his heart, but he still has to work hard until things are decided.

"Find a way to get in touch with the Dragon Soul Mercenary Group, and if the other party really has our soldiers in their hands, then tell the other party that we are willing to ransom people with money.

Aren't they mercenaries for money? Killing the captives will not do them any good, so the other side should not refuse our offer. ”

"Okay, I'll go now!" With that, the major officer turned around and prepared to leave.

"Report!"

Before the major officer could reach the office door, he heard a report coming from outside.

The major officer casually opened the office door, looked at the communications soldier in front of him, and took the document in the other party's hand.

The signal soldier whispered a few words in the ear of the major officer, and was sent away. The major officer with the document returned to the office with an ugly face.

"What happened again?" Looking at the face of the major officer, Rodrius chuckled in his heart and couldn't help but ask out loud.

"Commander, the news about the four pilots has been confirmed." The major officer said in a deep voice.

"Oh, say it." Rodrisi's eyes lit up and he said hurriedly.

Looking at the appearance of Rodris in front of him, the major officer smiled helplessly in his heart, hoping that after reading the news in his hand for a while, his chief would be able to maintain his current mood!
