Chapter 742: Blackmail
Colonel Lazaro was a little embarrassed by Liu Cheng's gratitude, and he didn't know what to say for a while, he spent four years at the Chinese Army Academy, and naturally he could hear that Liu Cheng's gratitude came from the heart, Chinese as if he was born with a tradition of hospitality to outsiders, so that Lazaro not only did not encounter any discrimination because he came from a poor country in those years in China, but was often helped by Chinese classmates, and his Chinese was taught by two Chinese classmates for four years. With his current fluency in Mandarin, even if Lazaro is no longer in the army, he will be able to get a good position in a Chinese company in Tanzania and become a rare gold collar in Tanzania.
However, now in the Tanzanian People's Defense Forces, Lazaro is also quite good, only in his early thirties has climbed to the position of colonel, judging from the current situation of close cooperation between Tanzania and China, a high-achieving student like him, who has studied in China, will enter the fast track of promotion in the military circles, and it is difficult to imagine that there will be a place for him in the two mechanized infantry brigades in the future, and it can be said that the four years in China have profoundly changed Lazaro's life.
"You're welcome, Colonel Liu, it's just a trivial matter," said Colonel Lazaro embarrassedly, "if such a big thing has happened to our Chinese brothers, if this little thing can't be done, then I really don't have the face to see you." ”
Soon, the 164 Marine Brigade assault battalion and special brigade completed the unloading of personnel and equipment, the Y-20 group took off with a bang, disappeared into the blue sky, they will stop at an air base in Tanzania near Dodoma to refuel, and wait until nightfall to return to China, in order to transport the 164 Brigade this combat unit to Tanzania, the air force dispatched more than 10 Y-20 strategic transport planes, and now the entire air force only has more than 40 Y-20 strategic transport planes, in this eventful season, The military will not put such a large strategic force thousands of miles away.
Liu Cheng quickly set up a temporary command headquarters based on Mpanda, the garrison of the Tanzanian People's National Defense Force, and two Pterodactyl drones were released to begin a detailed investigation of the information near the location sent back by the GPS locator on the missing captain Liu Yunhan.
What Zhao Cheng did not expect was that the helicopter detachment of the Central African Group actually had two Mi-26 heavy transport helicopters and 10 Mi-171s, and the other 13 were domestically produced Z-9 and Z-8 helicopters, and the transport capacity of this helicopter detachment actually exceeded that of an army aviation regiment of the PLA.
At the moment, Betu. Banga didn't expect that the People's Liberation Army had already thundered out from thousands of miles away, flew to a place close at hand and was waiting for an opportunity to make a move, and he was still dreaming of making a fortune.
After kidnapping the Chinese explorers, although the top promised 10,000 dollars for a Chinese, but Betu. Banga had an extra heart, he interrogated the kidnapped Chinese slightly, and found that this group of people turned out to be employees of a large Chinese company. Gbarnga was as ecstatic as the discovery of a new continent.
If it is an ordinary Chinese, Betu. Banga must have thought that $10,000 a piece was already very good, but since this is a large company with assets of tens of billions of dollars, in Betu. In Banga's eyes, this is almost no different from the big companies in Western countries, so $10,000 is obviously too low. In his opinion, Somali pirates can kidnap Western hostages for millions of dollars, and this time he caught the employees of a large Chinese company, and each of them demanded a ransom of $100,000 was not too much.
Exactly Betu. Banga's greed for this thought made him hide the news of the successful kidnapping of the Chinese, so that the organization behind him did not receive the news in time.
So wait until the next morning, thinking that there might be millions of dollars coming in, and Betu. Banga's heart was hot, and he deliberately got up early at 8 o'clock, and then started a "morning exercise" on the belly of a tribal black beauty. Banga practiced for half an hour in the morning before he was satisfied enough to get up from the belly of the tribe's black beauty.
"Kazadi, how are those Chinese?" Beitu. Banga puffed out a smoke ring and walked to a thatched hut and asked his henchmen who were guarding the captives with AK47s. "Boss, they're all honest, and there's nothing wrong with them at all." Kazadi said with a flattering smile, "This is a pile of green dollars, I will guard it personally, and there will be no chaos." ”
"Well, well done, Kazadi" Betu. Bonga went up and patted Kazadi on the shoulder and complimented, "Give me their heads, I'll be useful." ”
"Yes, sir," said Ghazadi in a whisper, "are you going to exchange it for money?" ”
"Do your thing." Beitu. Banga glared at Kazadi dissatisfied, "Don't worry about things that shouldn't be asked, you can't have a share of the benefits." ”
"Yes, sir!" Kazadi stuck out his tongue, raised the AK47 in his hand, walked into the hut and shouted loudly in English, "Who's the leader, stand up!" ”
Looking at Kazadi's vicious appearance, Li Huafeng's heart jumped, he was about to stand up, and a pair of big hands next to him pressed his shoulders, "Take good brothers, don't act rashly, wait for rescue, I'll go this time!" Liu Yunhan whispered to Li Huafeng, "There is something in the corner, you pick it up and take it with you after I leave, and open it every 1 or 2 hours for ten minutes." ”
After speaking, Liu Yunhan stood up calmly and said to Kazadi in English, "I am, is there something wrong?" ”
"Don't talk nonsense, come out, we have something to look for you!" Qazadi said viciously that this group of Chinese is nothing more than a bunch of green dollars in Qazadi's eyes, so there is no need to be polite to them Kazadi.
"You're their leader?" Beitu. Banga looked at Liu Yunhan and asked with some suspicion, maybe it was Liu Yunhan's overly calm attitude, Beitu. Banga sniffed out a familiar military smell from Liu Yunhan, "You don't look like an ordinary worker, say, what is your real identity!" "Betu. Banga suddenly pulled out his mobile phone and asked Liu Yunhan sharply.
"I'm their leader, and we're doing geological exploration." Liu Yunhan faces Beitu. The muzzle of the black hole hole in Banga, although the drum in his heart, still replied strongly. "Our work is well known in Mpanda."
Although Betu. Banga was still a little suspicious of Liu Yunhan's true identity, but thinking of the green dollars, he quickly retracted his thoughts and took out a mobile phone from his pocket, which was confiscated from Li Huafeng and their exploration team.
"Come, call your company and ask them to prepare $3.8 million in three days to trade on the Mpanda side of Lake Tanganyika, and if I can't see these dollars, let them come to you in Lake Tanganyika." Beitu. Banga stared at Liu Yunhan and said word by word in English, "Remember, turn on your mobile phone hands-free, don't say even one word in Chinese, and express my requirements in English." Otherwise, you don't want to live to see the sunshine of tomorrow. ”
"Sir, before I state your request, I need to indicate my identity and the safety of my teammates so that the company will consider your request." Hearing this, Liu Yunhan's tense mood immediately relaxed, since this gang of gangsters is seeking money, then everyone is much safer.
Beitu. After listening to Liu Yunhan's words, Banga thought about it carefully and didn't find anything wrong, so he nodded.
See Betu. Banga agreed to his request, and Liu Yunhan picked up his mobile phone and started dialing, while quickly organizing himself in his mind to deliver information.
The phone rang a few times before it was connected. "This is the China-Africa Group, is it Qin Song?" Sun Yunshun, general manager of the China-Africa Group branch in Tanzania, looked at the mobile phone number of a member of Mpanda's missing exploration team on the caller ID and asked in surprise.
"I'm Liu Yunhan," Liu replied in English as calmly as possible, "and it was they who ordered me to contact you and express their requests. Please speak in English. "Liu Yunhan doesn't know about Beitu. The identity of Banga's gang was replaced by a third person.
When Sun Yunshun heard this, he quickly found out from the list that there was really Liu Yunhan, this person was the captain of the helicopter in the missing exploration team, he quickly pressed the recording button of the phone, and then changed to English and asked, "Liu Yunhan, how are you now, are you safe?" What are their requirements? ”
"We're all safe together," Liu Yunhan briefly described the situation of his group, and then added Beitu. Banga's request was repeated.
Beitu. Banga listened carefully to Liu Yunhan's words on the side, and heard that he really didn't say much about inconsequential things, and after Liu Yunhan finished speaking, Beitu. Banga took his phone back, "Three days later, either you see $3.8 million, or you go to Lake Tanganyika and collect 38 bodies." "Betu. After Banga said viciously, he hung up the phone, then opened the back cover of the phone and took out the card and threw it away.
Sun Yunshun suddenly heard such a voice, he couldn't help but be startled, and was about to say something after listening, but found that the other party had already hung up the phone, and when he dialed back again, the phone had already prompted to turn off.
However, today I can hear Liu Yunhan speak in person to report that all the kidnapped people are safe, although Sun Yunshun could not confirm for a while whether it was Liu Yunhan himself, but from the situation said by the other party, it is almost certain that this is a kidnapping and extortion case, Sun Yunshun quickly reported the matter to the headquarters, and exported the telephone recording to the China-Africa Group.
The relevant Chinese authorities, who have been closely following the situation here, quickly obtained the recording for analysis, and confirmed that it was indeed the voice of the abducted person, Liu Yunhan himself. And from the recording, the military intelligence officers obtained important information from Liu Yunhan's short sentences, that is, the hostages who were kidnapped this time are now safe and held together!
