Hostage-taking is not only a technical task, not to mention how to deal with more than 30 American soldiers who are armed with guns and ammunition and have been in a hundred battles, but considering the huge figure of the old industrial power behind them and the estimated strength that can crush Belgium several times in a week, the royal family and the cabinet will never agree to Albert's request to play with fire.

This porcelain work can't be done without diamonds, so this kind of dirty operation with the Allies, Albert plans to bypass the Belgian official at the beginning, and directly use his own private forces, and the paramilitary personnel of the Strategic Resources Cooperation Company have achieved remarkable results in tactical training for most of the month.

With only a week to go before Braun entered Belgium, Albert had already begun to carefully plan his bag drop plan, every step of which had to be carefully considered and prepared, and if he made a mistake, Albert could face a stormy retaliation by the United States.

Today, however, Albert has a special guest at the company, Franz from the War Office. Although the last purchase of Albert's rifle caused a lot of complaints from the commanders of the War Department at first, after the test, all those who complained obediently shut up, because the performance of the AKM and FAL rifles was really impeccable.

"What wind brought you to my company, Lord Franz? Is it to buy firearms or munitions this time? Albert smiled and brought Franz a cup of coffee, now in front of him was a potential God of Wealth who could bring huge profits to the company, even if Albert himself received it.

In the face of Prince Albert's grand reception, Franz felt flattered, in fact, he also had a self-assertive element in the original purchase of firearms, fortunately, he was not bad luck and made a lot of money, which was appreciated by the ministers of the army, "Your Excellency Albert, this time the military department sent me here to talk to you about the MOLLE system 6094 tactical vest developed by North Industries. ”

"Uh......" Albert's smile was a little stiff, he couldn't believe what was said by the young man in front of him, what, did the War Department have a convulsion? Equip the Belgian Army with MOLLE System tactical vests? Don't they know that Congress is in charge of the money bags and that these guys will never pass such a budget?

"What's the problem? His Highness Albert? Albert stared at Franz straight at him, making him a little uncomfortable.

"Oh no, not at all." Albert came back to his senses and continued, "So according to His Excellency Franz, the army is going to update a lot of equipment this time?" ”

Franz shook his head and said, "His Highness Albert is mistaken, it's not the Army's large-scale procurement, but the Belgian Independent Airborne Company needs to be equipped with this kind of high-performance vest. Speaking of this, Franz touched his nose awkwardly, "Even if the Army wants large-scale procurement, those old guys in Congress will never agree." ”

Albert was a little disappointed and muttered, "It turned out to be the predecessor of the Belgian SFG Army Special Operations Brigade, the Belgian Special Air Service Squadron." ”

The history of the Belgian special forces dates back to the time of World War II. In May 1942, the Belgian Airborne Company was formed near Manchester, England, and the unit became known as the "Belgian Independent Airborne Company" and consisted of volunteers from among the Belgians who were in exile in Britain during the German invasion. In February 1944, the company was incorporated into the British Special Air Service Brigade, and the name of the unit was changed to the "Belgian Special Air Service Squadron". By the end of World War II, the special forces had arrested many high-ranking Nazi Party officials and war suspects in France, Belgium, and the northern Dutch city of Flensburg.

In 1952, the Belgian Special Air Service Squadron formed the Airborne Assault Regiment with other Belgian assaults and airborne groups. Three years later, the Airborne Assault Regiment was reorganized as a "Special Reconnaissance Unit" and was attached to the First Army of the Belgian Army in Germany. In the early days of the Cold War, special reconnaissance units were the main force in the First Army to carry out long-range reconnaissance missions.

In 1961, the special reconnaissance unit was reorganized as a "special reconnaissance company", and its station was still located in West Germany. In the early 90s of the 20th century, the company consisted of 16 groups of 4 people each, and as part of the First Army of the Belgian Army, the company served NATO for 33 years, and all or part of its forces participated in many military operations in Africa and beyond.

In March and December 1993, the Belgian Special Reconnaissance Company participated in the second and third phases of the United Nations military mission in Somalia to provide intelligence information to the Belgian troops deployed there, and from August 1993 to January 1994, the Belgian Special Reconnaissance Company provided close protection to senior United Nations officers in Bosnia; Prior to the disbandment of the Special Reconnaissance Company in 1994, three of the Company's Special Reconnaissance Teams participated in Operation Silverback in Rwanda to rescue civilians from Western countries.

"Then I don't know how many vests the Belgian Independent Airborne Company needs to purchase this time?" Albert sat down on his desk and crossed his fingers and asked, the strength of a company is about 100 men, and Franz's purchase is this number if nothing else.

"105 pieces, and I would like to ask if all the bags can really be freely matched?" Franz asked a very substandard question.

Albert nodded, and didn't care about anything, anyway, the 6094 vest is currently pressed in his own hands, it is better to sell personal favors to the War Department, and you can also make a live advertisement by the way, so far the tactical vest of the MOLLE system is impossible to open the market in the military, Albert's only hope is the police or civilian market, such as the United States on the other side of the Atlantic, and such as the old European powers.

"Oh yes." Franz said mysteriously, "The Kramer mine provided to the military last time was praised, so the army plans to order this thing, which can be regarded as a letter to you in advance." ”

Albert showed his aristocratic standard smile again, a look that made people feel incomprehensible, and such a standard politician's smile appeared on a thirteen-year-old child, which was really a bit of a contradiction, "Then thank you Lord Franz, since the military is willing to sell me a face, I don't mind a little discount in terms of price." ”

If Albert really thinks of Albert as a thirteen-year-old child, then this officer is very wrong, on the surface it seems that Albert intends to cooperate "sincerely" with the military department, but in fact he is looking at the tempting and delicious cake of the special operations forces, and he is trying to put his hand into the war department.

If a unit can change the overall situation through assassination, kidnapping, and a series of shady missions, who dares to say that this team is not comparable to a million lions? Even Sun Tzu's Art of War has the tricks of a cloud soldier, knowing oneself and knowing the other, combining Qi Zheng, invincible.

After shaking hands and saying goodbye, Franz exited Albert's office and walked into the corridor where he felt a sense of relief, for some reason, when he was stared at by Prince Albert, he was like a poor little white rabbit looked at by a hunted lion.

"Hell, Franz, he's just a kid, you don't have to be nervous." Franz shook his head and dismissed the untrue idea and strode out of Albert's company.

At the same time, Albert, who was in the office, picked up the phone and dialed the number of John's house, from the beginning this guy who was five years older than himself never intended to manage this company, and John's father, that is, the current 'Chancellor of the Exchequer' of Belgium, also half-pushed and half-pushed the company "to" Albert, although Albert controlled 80 percent, but the real investment, the Smith family had much more money than himself.

Showing favor to yourself in this way is really a damn old fox. Albert thought to himself.

The phone was quickly connected, and John over there dragged a lazy voice that had just woken up and asked, "Who?" ”

Albert said calmly, "Twenty minutes, no matter what way you use, you have to be in the company." ”

In the last 55 seconds, a panting John appeared in front of Albert and asked, "Damn, Albert, what is the big thing that requires me to come over, is the company going out of business if it's not doing well?" ”

Albert pushed a list on the table in front of John, and pointed at the items on it with his index finger, "In three days, help me get these things." ”

John picked up the list, jumped up just by looking at it, and his voice suddenly rose several decibels, "Albert, tell me what the hell you want to do, PPSH41 submachine gun?" Soviet uniforms? Don't tell me you're planning to develop Soviet weapons? I don't even believe it. ”

"Shut up John." Albert clenched his hands into fists, stood by the window and said without looking back, "I know that you are well-connected and can get these things through some special means, I only need to see these things in three days, and you don't want to get involved in the rest." ”

John opened his mouth, wanting to refute something, and finally patted Albert on the shoulder, and said seriously, "Albert, although we have been playing together since childhood, promise me, don't do anything excessive, as a prince, if you have a stain of crime, you will never want to raise your head in front of the royal family for the rest of your life." ”

If John had known what Albert was going to do, he would have dislocated his jaw in surprise.
