Chapter XXIV: The Hostage Incident
When he came to the guest house, Wang Tiecheng glanced back at them and asked Wan Lin with a smile, "Who are these two beauties?" Wan Lin hurriedly replied, "They are my sisters, go home to see grandpa together", "That's good, two sisters in one room, you in one room" Wang Brigade said with a smile.
Came to the room, Wang Tiecheng inquired in detail about the last overseas battle, Zhang Wa talked about it vividly, Xiaoya and Rong Rong heard their battle for the first time, when Zhang Wa said that Wan Lin was targeted by snipers and couldn't get out, and Xiaohua was injured to save Wan Lin, the nervous faces of the two turned white.
In the past, they asked them many times about their combat experience, but Wan Lin and they did not dare to say it because of the confidentiality regulations and the fear of scaring them. And Wang Tiecheng was the insider of the hostage rescue incident last time, so Wang Tiecheng dared to say it when he asked today.
Zhang Wa was talking energetically, and Wang Tiecheng's mobile phone suddenly rang. Wang Tiecheng listened for a while and said, "Why hasn't it been solved yet, I'll go over in a while." You guys stay put", he hung up the phone, he thought for a moment, and then said to Wan Lin and Zhang Wa, "I had a vicious hostage-taking incident here yesterday, and five or six gangsters kidnapped a 12-year-old girl. We may need your help in this matter", he then gave a detailed account of the case.
At around six o'clock yesterday afternoon, Lingling, the granddaughter of Liu Hongxin, a famous entrepreneur in the provincial capital, disappeared after school. The family called the police at 8 p.m. after asking the school and classmates to no avail. After visiting a large number of shops along the road and reviewing the surveillance video of the city, the police found that Lingling was pulled into a white van by a group of people at around 6:20 not far from the school gate.
Due to Liu Hongxin's special identity as a business tycoon, he has a huge influence in the province and even in China, so the provincial leaders attach great importance to it. The secretary of the provincial party committee personally spoke to the director of the provincial public security department and demanded that the safety of the hostages be guaranteed and that the case be solved within three days. To this end, the Provincial Public Security Department and the Municipal Public Security Bureau jointly set up a leading group for the investigation of the case and launched an investigation overnight.
Eyewitnesses and videos were interviewed to determine the physical characteristics of the van. The traffic police department mobilized surveillance footage of urban roads overnight, and finally determined that the hostages were being held in a detached villa in the suburbs. The special police detachment of the armed police has surrounded the villa.
At present, police experts have been negotiating with the kidnappers for nearly 10 hours, but the other party is very rampant, insisting on asking for 5 million in cash, asking for a helicopter to escape, and limiting the time limit of 24 hours, and if they do not agree, they will kill the hostages at any time.
In order to ensure the safety of the hostages, the leading group for the investigation of the case decided to storm and rescue the hostages. But the villa is surrounded by open land with a radius of more than 1,000 meters, and the police have repeatedly sent people to approach, but they have been forced to retreat by the other party with automatic rifle fire. Moreover, there was a gangster next to the hostage who pointed a gun at the hostage's head, which could endanger the hostage's safety at any time.
At present, the police have dispatched a number of snipers, all of whom said that they were not sure that they could hit the gangster's vital point with a shot above 1,000 meters, so they are still in a stalemate.
After Wang Tiecheng introduced the case, a look of expectation appeared in his eyes, "Wan Lin, you are a sniper of the commando, is it okay at this distance?" Wan Lin and Zhang Wa glanced at each other and said, "I can go to the scene to have a look." But we're on vacation and need approval from our superiors."
Wang Tiecheng was overjoyed when he heard that they did not refuse, and said repeatedly, "I'll help you ask for instructions", and then called Li Dongsheng, the captain of the "Flower Cat Commando".
After Wang Tiecheng introduced the case and expressed his intention to ask for support, Li Dongsheng readily agreed. Then Wang Tiecheng handed over the phone to Wan Lin, and Li Dongsheng said on the phone, "Wan Lin, the important duty of a soldier is to keep one side safe, not to mention your hometown." I approve you to participate in the operation, obey the command of the royal team, and don't disgrace our 'leopard commando'."
Hearing that Wan Lin and they were going to participate in the operation, Xiao Ya and Rong Rong were pestering to follow, Wang Tie looked at Wan Lin in embarrassment, and Wan Lin said, "Let them go, otherwise they won't be at ease in the guest house."
Several people came to the scene quickly in Wang Tiecheng's car. Wang Tiecheng simply introduced the situation of the two to Xing Zhong, the deputy captain of the armed police brigade who was commanding at the scene, and then said, "You find equipment for the two of them, this is the sniper Wan Lin, pick a good gun for him from the existing snipers; This is Commando Demoman Zhang Wa". Then he turned around and pointed at Xiaoya and the two and said, "Find two body armor for the two girls and send someone to ensure their safety."
The two changed into the equipment of the SWAT team members, took off the pistols and daggers of the armed police, and changed into the equipment they carried. Then Wan Lin took a Type 95 sniper rifle and took a closer look and calibrated the gun. Zhang Wa picked out a Type 03 automatic rifle.
After the preparations, Wang Tiecheng instructed the team members to take Xiaoya and them to a safe place, and then led them to the sniper site.
Wan Lin lay behind the gun, measured the sniper distance, 1150 meters, raised his hand to feel the wind speed, and then carefully looked at the villa through the scope. The villa is a small three-storey building, the hall on the first floor is lit, there is a room on the second and third floors with a faint light, and there is a stone path outside the villa that leads to the outside, surrounded by some small weeds.
After observing for a while, Wan Lin whispered to Wang Tiecheng, "The shooting distance is no problem." At present, these people are militarily trained and very professional in concealment. From the analysis of the situation at the scene, there are people guarding the door on the first floor, there are people in the room with lights on the third floor, and the room next to it is dark, but the reflected light from the telescope can be found, and it can be concluded that there are observers and gunners; The second floor is the room where the hostages are kept.
"If you attack, first, you must first stealthily kill the observation post on the third floor and clear the gunmen on the third floor; Second, it is necessary to alarm the hostages on the second floor and expose their bodies; Third, it is necessary to launch a strong attack under the condition of killing the guards on the second floor and ensuring the safety of the hostages. Do you think it's possible? ”
Wang Tiecheng analyzed it carefully and said: "Judging from the terrain and the distribution of kidnappers, only this method is feasible, but how to approach the second floor without alarming the gangsters?" ”
Wan Lin said, "I am responsible for the observation post on the third floor and the hostages on the second floor, Zhang Wa is responsible for the rest of the gangsters on the third floor, and you are responsible for the first floor."
Wang Tiecheng pondered for a while. The responsibility is too great, and if the rescue fails, he can't explain it to the province. He called several other members of the leadership team and informed them of the programme. The answer was unanimous disagreement, saying that such a big thing as rescuing the hostages could not be put in the hands of outsiders, and who would be responsible if there was an accident with the hostages.
Wang Tiecheng was anxious and asked, "Do you have a feasible plan?" "The other party has not been heard from." A bunch of bastards who are afraid of responsibility! He cursed secretly in his heart, and said into the microphone, "I am the commander-in-chief of the rescue operation, and I will implement the Wanlin plan according to it, and I will be responsible for any problems!" ”
Wang Tiecheng came to Wan Lin and Zhang Wa's side, "Just follow your plan, what else do you need?" ”
Wan Lin had already finished exchanging battle plans with Zhang Wa at this time. Hearing Wang Tiecheng's question, Wan Lin said, "I see that your team members have Type 06 miniature submachine guns, give me one, it's inconvenient to use a sniper rifle indoors; Also, give me the silencer on the sniper rifle. Give Zhang Wa a few grenades". After a while, the team members sent Wan Lin the equipment they needed.
Wan Lin turned his head to look at Xiaohua lying beside him, reached out to touch his hind legs, and asked softly, "Okay?" Xiaohua looked at him, her two round eyes blinked, and she wagged her tail to indicate that it was no problem.
Wan Lin said to Captain Wang again, "Can you give me a photo of Lingling?" I want to let Xiaohua know her", Wang Brigade immediately sent a photo.
Wan Lin took the photo and let Xiaohua look at it, said to it, "Protect her", and gave it another command. Finally, he turned his head and called a special police officer next to him to hug him, letting Xiaohua know that the person in such a costume was a comrade-in-arms.
As soon as the preparations were completed, Wan Lin asked Captain Wang, "Can I start?" "Let's go!" Team Wang nodded beside him.
