Chapter 226: The Plan of the Rescue Operation
Another five minutes had passed, and Colonel Hans was furious at the sight of Namar, who still hadn't let up in the slightest.
At this moment, a gunshot startled everyone present.
Lin Dong and the others instinctively wanted to grab their weapons.
But when it was certain that the gunshots were coming from a distance, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
However, in an instant, both Steve and Colonel Hans panicked, because the gunfire was coming from the mall, which meant that it was most likely the militants who were shooting.
Their biggest concern was the safety of the four Americans inside.
This is, a black man in a military uniform hurriedly ran over and said to Namar: "Report to the general, it seems that the other party has lost patience for so long, and they have just executed a hostage."
And the people inside also said that if they didn't agree to their demands, they would kill a hostage every ten minutes! ”
"What?!" Namal was furious.
Steve, who was next to him, asked anxiously, "What about the Americans, how are the Americans inside?" ”
The man in military uniform looked at Steve with an ugly face, and finally said, "We didn't see the Americans inside." ”
After hearing this, both Steve and Hans breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts, it seemed that the other party was not targeting the four American citizens.
Or maybe the other party used those four people as their last bargaining chips.
Thinking of this, Steve suddenly became anxious, came to Namar's side again and said: "General Namar, the matter is already very critical, for the safety of our two people, please let our soldiers go to rescue the hostages, otherwise more people may die."
You know, there were 200 hostages, including citizens of other countries.
If something does happen to them, then you Nigeria will have a big impact on the international community, and I don't think even President Jonathan wants to see this kind of thing! ”
Namar's face finally softened a little, as he also felt a huge amount of pressure.
It's not just pressure from within, it's pressure from outside.
Most of the more than 200 people here are middle-class Nigerians, who can be said to be the elite of society and are rare talents.
And there are people from other countries, whether they are here for work, tourists, etc., if they all have an accident here, then the Nigerian government will be condemned by the country behind these people.
At that time, their influence in the international community will inevitably become more vicious, which will be very detrimental to Nigeria's future development!
Seeing Namal's face, Steve's heart suddenly rejoiced, because he had already seen the hope of his success in the other party's expression.
So, Steve was going to put the last straw that broke the camel's back on him.
"We don't have time to think about it, Your Excellency. As you can see, they've already started slaughtering hostages.
If we don't act, then more innocent people will be harmed! ”
Finally, after Steve's words fell, Namar looked at the Yankee in front of him, who was also sweating on his head, with a complicated face, and nodded with difficulty.
"Great!"
Steve smiled and turned his gaze to Colonel Hans.
His mission has been accomplished, and the next thing is up to Colonel Hans.
After all, this kind of action to save people is not something that a diplomat like him is good at. At this point, Steve saw it very clearly.
Colonel Hans also smiled at the ambassador rarely, then turned his gaze to Lin Dong and them, and said solemnly: "Okay, the next thing is up to you!" ”
Lin Dong hooked the corners of his mouth and walked up with the other four people of the dragon soul.
"We need to know what's going on inside, and the more detailed the better!" Lin Dong looked into Colonel Hans's eyes and said solemnly.
"Okay!"
Colonel Hans did not hesitate to do so, saving people is the most important thing now, and everything else needs to serve this purpose.
And only by understanding the specific situation inside, can we be more sure to save people.
This kind of thing, as a military Colonel Hans, of course, is clear.
However, if you want to understand the situation inside, you still need Namar's cooperation, after all, this is a place for people, and this information can only be asked to them.
After listening to Colonel Hans's request, Namar looked at Lindon and them, and then said, "Come with me!" ”
Following Namal, the group came to a military vehicle.
There was a simple table with some spread out maps on it.
It looks like it's the architectural drawings of the mall or something.
"But it's really primitive!"
Lin Dong said in his heart.
If this is really the United States, then what they see now is a three-dimensional electronic image of the mall.
And maybe the location of the militants and hostages can be clearly marked.
But this is Nigeria, so everything can only be delusional, and it would be nice to have a few maps!
Namar pointed to the map on the table and said, "There are four floors in this mall, and the first and second floors of this mall have been occupied by those militants. According to our investigation, there are about 20 militants on the first floor and at least 20 on the second floor.
According to my speculation, the hostages should have been concentrated on three floors. Because someone had seen them shoot a hostage on the third floor and throw it out of the window. ”
At this point, Namar paused, then continued: "But we don't know exactly how many militants there are on the third floor, because we can't find out what's going on inside.
Again, it's the same with the fourth floor, and it's possible that they put the hostages on the fourth floor.
In addition, they also arranged a human guard at the top of the mall, with ten armed men armed with AK47s, to prevent anyone from going down from the roof to rescue them. ”
After the introduction, Namar set his sights on Colonel Hans and Linton.
"I hope you really have such a great ability to eliminate the militants inside and rescue the two hundred and twenty-four hostages inside!"
Hearing this, Colonel Hans snorted coldly, as if he still had a great opinion of the Namar general.
"Then you just look at it and look at the strength of our American army!"
Although Lin Dong and the others are not from the American army, in this situation, everyone will regard them as American soldiers.
Although I was a little unhappy in my heart, for the sake of the million dollars, I put up with it.
