Chapter 346: Procrastination
The person in front listened, and immediately stopped advancing. Repeat, stop moving forward immediately! ”
At the same time, dozens of operatives guarding the gate of the airport fired their guns into the air at the same time.
Outside the airport, there was a commotion in the advancing crowd, but the effect was obvious, and after the warning shots were fired, the crowd stopped.
More than a thousand meters above the crowd, a small rotary-wing drone took everything in view.
The footage taken by the two cameras carried by the drone is displayed on the screen of Wang Haotian's military computer.
One is a wide-angle camera and the other is a long-lens high-resolution camera.
"Brother Chu, on the left side of the road, the one wearing a green hat."
"Roger."
Wang Dong stared intently at the footage taken by the long lens, and Xie Chuyue was ambushed on the roof of the terminal, ready to shoot the dangerous elements at any time.
"It's civilians, don't shoot."
The guy began to bend down and reach out into his pocket, but what he pulled out was a pack of cigarettes, not the bomb's remote detonation switch.
Wang Dong broke out in a cold sweat and breathed a long sigh of relief.
There is no way to get Xie Chuyue to shoot and kill dangerous elements, because at this critical moment, even a missed bullet can cause bloodshed.
At this time, on the other side of the terminal, the first B777 full of expatriates had begun to taxi.
Not to take off, but to taxi to the runway.
Outside the airport, the crowd began to stir.
The hundreds of radicals at the front, apparently agitated, not only continued to approach the airport gates, but also began throwing stones and glass bottles.
"Brother Chu, the guy with the Molotov cocktail!"
Because the situation was extremely chaotic, Luo Qing was also responsible for guiding Xie Chuyue's goals.
Wang Dong also saw that it was a radical, holding a glass bottle filled with gasoline, and his companion had already lit the strip of cloth stuffed on the mouth of the bottle.
The point is, the radical was wearing a short-sleeved undershirt and was not armed.
In addition, he did not wear a mask and did not wear an Arab turban.
This shows that he is only a demagogic radical youth and not a terrorist.
It's just that the crowd has obviously stopped.
"Brother Chu?"
"See."
"Aim and fire, don't let him throw Molotov cocktails."
"Brother Chu, wait!"
There were no gunshots from the roof of the building, indicating that Xie Chuyue heard Wang Dong's words.
Luo Qing was slightly stunned, and looked at Wang Dong incomprehensibly.
At this time, outside the airport, the radical had already thrown Molotov cocktails, but it was still a few tens of meters away from the gate, and it did not pose a threat to the operators guarding the gate.
"Stop that airliner." Wang Dong didn't explain much, and gave Wang Haotian a command.
Wang Haotian was very puzzled, because he didn't understand what Wang Dong meant.
"Our every move is under the watchful eye of the enemy, and we immediately stop that airliner."
As soon as Wang Dong said this, Wang Hao reacted violently, immediately picked up the walkie-talkie, and contacted the action personnel responsible for guiding the passenger plane to take off.
The airliner stopped taxiing and stopped outside the terminal.
At this time, the situation outside the airport also began to improve, at least those excited people did not continue to approach the gate, but only threw stones from a distance of several tens of meters.
At this time, Luo Qing also understood.
Obviously, someone is secretly controlling and knowing the situation at the airport, and everything they do is actually to prevent the airliners at the airport from taking off.
You must know that if the crowd continues to approach, even if he knows that the consequences are serious, Wang Dong will give the order to open fire.
When the time comes, it will not only be tourists stranded at airports, but also thousands of civilians who will be unlucky.
It's just that the real murderers who hide behind civilians don't care about the lives of civilians at all.
"How long will it take to get all eight B777s ready for takeoff?"
"At least four hours."
"Then we'll have to fight for four hours!"
Wang Haotian didn't say much, and contacted the operational personnel in charge of evacuating overseas Chinese, asking them to speed up, organize overseas Chinese to board the plane, and prepare the other four B777s for takeoff as soon as possible.
Four hours is a long time, but Wang Dong believes that he can buy this time.
Quite simply, after four hours, it will be dark.
All the enemy did was to prevent the people at the airport from leaving on passenger planes.
In the evening, troops loyal to Karim will reach Baghdad.
By the time the Iraqi Defense Forces arrived, the seizure of the airport would have been a breeze.
If Karim can control the Iraqi Air Force, he may be able to send fighter jets to block the airfield.
When the time comes, none of the people left in the airport will be able to escape.
It is clear that the enemy is also stalling for time and does not want to let the situation get out of control.
The reason for this is actually not complicated, that is, the enemy only wants Razak, and it is believed that Razak came here after leaving the Speaker's residence.
If the situation gets out of control and turns into a scuffle, Razak may take advantage of the chaos to escape.
On the contrary, as long as the situation can be maintained, Razak will have a glimmer of hope that he will be able to leave the passenger plane and will not rush to break through.
Not long after, Xie Chuyue rushed over.
After Wang Dong expressed his judgment, Xie Chuyue accepted Wang Dong's suggestion to keep the situation in place, and then let the eight passenger planes take off at the same time.
As for what will happen next, it is not up to Wang Dong and Xie Chuyue to decide.
In fact, as long as the more than 3,000 expatriates stranded at the airport are allowed to leave safely, Wang Dong and they will have completed their task, and the lives of other tourists have nothing to do with them.
It is an obligation to help one's own compatriots, and it is only a matter of affection to help tourists from other countries.
If it is a tourist from Pakistan, Wang Dong will definitely give face, after all, Pakistan is the iron buddy of China, and Wang Dong has a lot of Pakistani operatives under him.
You must know that the Pakistani military and civilians are willing to block bullets for the Chinese.
From another perspective, Wang Dong is also willing to take risks for the Pakistani people.
However, it is limited to tourists from friendly countries such as Pakistan.
Fortunately, there are not many Pakistanis in Iraq, so arranging for Pakistani tourists to evacuate on the same plane is not a big problem.
As for what security issues, it is obviously not a problem, because it is the least safe to stay.
In addition, Huaxia does not have many friends, so there will not be too many special situations that require Wang Dong to give face, and he has no intention of acting as a savior.
However, this situation did not last long.
When he received the report from the operatives, Wang Dong had already heard the commotion coming from downstairs.
The B777, which was full of expatriates, did not take off after leaving the terminal, causing concern among other expatriates before developing into riots.
In the hall below, more than 2,000 Chinese tourists all gathered near the boarding gate, all wanting to catch the next passenger plane.
The gate was cramped, and more than a dozen operatives were barely able to cope.
It's just that in the face of more than 2,000 tourists in the terminal who are out of control, even if they send all the operatives, I am afraid it will be useless.
