Chapter 205: Fully armed
"What!?"
Milburn's face changed suddenly, and he turned to one of his subordinates beside him and shouted: "Immediately notify you, block all checkpoints out of the city, dispatch the command center to strictly check the monitoring of all traffic arteries, impose strict martial law on the downtown area of the city, and be sure to find the location of drug dealers and missing police vehicles within 1 hour!" ”
From the murderous intent looming on his face, it can be seen how angry this captain is.
That's right, too.
Shooting and killing a police officer on duty in front of the police headquarters is tantamount to a slap in the face to Torreon, nay, and even the entire police community.
If it is not dealt with in a timely manner, it will lose the authority and credibility of the police in the eyes of the people.
Gu Ji squinted slightly, and before his subordinates answered, he took a step to speak.
"Captain Milburn, that missing cop is actually in the same league as the drug dealer!"
"It can't be!"
Milburn immediately denied that "all police officers in Mexico are required to pass a 'trust test' system such as polygraphs, drug tests, and psychological evaluations on a regular basis, and those who fail the test will be fired." ”
"What if it is threatened or corrupted during the inspection period?"
Gu Jike doesn't believe that there is a perfect system strategy, and this kind of long-term self-examination behavior will weaken the professional security of the police, plus he is suspected by his own people every day, and anyone will be driven crazy and choose to take risks.
So he briefly recounted the ins and outs of the shooting at the checkpoint.
At this time, another subordinate also came with documents from the Ministry of Public Security and the police station at the checkpoint, confirming the fact that the plane had crashed and was held hostage by drug traffickers.
Milburn put down his gun, took the fax papers, and glanced twice.
"You're the passengers on flight AM649?"
"That's right, it's my airline ID."
Betty took out the crew purser's work card again, and choked up a little, "Mr. Officer, we escaped from death and ran here just to seek rescue, please help us!" ”
"I'm sorry ma'am, Mexico is a federal system, the states are relatively independent, Torreón where we are stationed belongs to the state of Coahuila, and the plane crashed in Durango, we can't meddle in other jurisdictions, and the problem of Torreón and drug trafficking attacks is not solved at the moment......"
Milburn shrugged his shoulders and put on a "love can't help" look.
"Captain Milburn, you shouldn't be scared, right?"
"What did you say!?"
Gu Ji's sudden words not only angered Milburn, but also caused dissatisfaction among the other policemen around him.
But he completely ignored it, and continued to preach unsteadily:
"As far as I know, after the legislative reform in Mexico in 2022, the National Guard is under the command of the Ministry of Defense and is no longer under government control, and it is stipulated that the crimes of drug smuggling, anti-government rebellion and jurisdictional conflicts in the state are generally the responsibility of the National Guard and the federal police, and the rest of the crimes are the responsibility of the state police."
When Gu Ji was in college, his teacher gave a lecture on police reform in Mexico.
Mexico's police system is complex, especially federal law enforcement, which is often disbanded and then reorganized.
However, it is mainly divided into two categories: judicial and preventive.
The former is under the jurisdiction of the procuratorate and is mainly responsible for criminal investigations, while the latter has very limited investigative powers and is mainly responsible for prevention.
In other words, the preventive police are purely violent forces, most of the time responsible only for dealing with drug traffickers and insurgents.
This sounds a lot like the military, but in fact, the Mexican authorities have actually formed a military police force, the National Guard in Milburn, which is largely composed of veterans, and the Ministry of Defense and the Navy have been responsible for training, similar to the armed police in the country, and the Federal Police is also under the management of the National Guard.
The new unit did not disappoint the population, and Gumans' son, Odilavi, was successfully captured by the National Guard.
Milburn's eyelids twitched, as if he didn't expect Gu a few foreigners to know so much about the Mexican police system.
"Although it is not under the jurisdiction of the state government, we have been ordered to be responsible for the security of Torreón, and now the drug dealers who attacked the police headquarters are hiding in the city, and they may reoffend at any time, endangering civilians, and we must deal with them first!"
"Captain Milburn, the hijacking of passengers on an international flight by drug dealers is an urgent international crisis incident, and it is obviously a higher priority, and this group of drug dealers is not here to attack the police headquarters at all, otherwise they will not run away after the fight, they just want to kill two policemen, disrupt the line of sight, and let you not participate in the rescue of passengers."
Gu Ji talked about his previous analysis of the real goals of Sinaloa's drug dealers.
In fact, from the very beginning, the drug dealer directly shot and strafed, and he understood that the other party did not want to stay alive at all, but only wanted to make a big deal and attract the attention of all the police.
Because within a radius of 100 kilometers, only the police headquarters of this important town, Torreón, has the strongest troops and equipment.
"You say the drug dealers want to force the government to release Odilawi?"
When Milburn said this, many police officers around him were so shocked that they shuddered, and the Sinaloa Group was like a grim reaper to the Mexican police.
He pondered for a moment, then turned around and took out his phone from his pocket and dialed his superiors.
It seems that the agitation method still works.
After some conversation, Milburn called his subordinates around him, "Inform me, the drug dealers who attacked the headquarters will be handed over to the federal police, and the Torreon National Guard combat team will be fully prepared and ready for rescue operations!" ”
"Yes!"
After his subordinates left, he looked at Gu Ji and the four of them again, "The Secretariat of the Ministry of National Defense has just reached an agreement with the Ministry of Public Security to send us as an advance team to rescue the crew members and passengers killed on flight AM649, and in 2 hours, the official joint combat force of the United States and Mexico will arrive at the scene to meet us, who of you knows the specific information of the hijacking drug dealers?" ”
"Thank God! That's great! ”
"Wait! Betty, what are you talking about, why did the police leave all of a sudden? ”
Riddle and Saleh couldn't understand what they were saying, and could only judge by their expressions and atmosphere, and seeing that Gu Ji's words caused these federal police officers to be dissatisfied, and then left in large numbers, they were naturally worried to death.
Gu Ji ignored him, but took out the phone number of the aunt with sunglasses from his pocket and showed the screensaver interface.
"A drug dealer named Sara has been shot dead by me, and the other is her, the yellow hair in the photo is her son, and she acts as an interpreter in front of the drug dealer boss, who has gray curly hair, a beard, about 1.75 meters, and is very fat."
"Curly gray hair, beard...... Sounds a lot like the number four of the Sinaloa group: Beam Alemán, who happens to be in charge of Durango. ”
Milburn muttered a few words, and an impression immediately came to his mind.
With his eyes down, he looked at Gu Ji with a flickering gaze, as well as the blood splatters on his body, "It sounds like you're pretty skilled, and you know a lot about the Sinaloa Group." ”
"Anthony Yasen, I used to be an airborne soldier in Brazil, and as for this information, I found it partly from the hijacker, and partly from him, Riddle is a secret investigative reporter who has seen the drug dealer boss from afar."
Gu Ji lied now, and he didn't blush at all.
Anyway, Riddle can't understand Spanish, and even if he can, he doesn't dare to refute it, after all, this kid's identity is not clean in the first place, and there is a handle in his hands.
"Yes, Vene Milburn, a former Marine Scout, now commanding the National Guard Combat Group in Torreon."
As soon as he heard that Gu Ji had been a soldier, Milburn's attitude suddenly changed, and he actually took the initiative to stretch out his hand, "Since you have the ability to protect yourself and understand the situation of the incident, please go to the scene with us and help." ”
"Absolutely."
Gu Ji was worried about finding some reason to follow, but he didn't expect the opportunity to take the initiative to come to the door, "But I want to take him, Riddle has a lot of secrets of the Sinaloa Group in his hands." ”
Riddle was still waiting for an explanation, when he was suddenly caught, looking confused.
There are so many secrets in this guy.
The captain's relationship with him, the cause of death, third parties, the mysterious computer source of the illegal arms dealer Klica, and more......
So no matter what, it was impossible for Gu Ji to let him go.
As the purser, Betty also refused to give up the passengers of the flight, and also asked to act with the guards.
In the end, Saleh was left, he didn't want to provoke drug dealers anymore, but when he thought of the tall black policeman, he was afraid that he would be black-shot if he stayed here, so he was forced to join in helplessly.
Thereupon.
The four of them boarded the armed pickup truck with Milburn, who each gave them a tactical bulletproof vest and helmet for safety, as well as a translucent single in-ear tactical headset, but no weapons.
Before leaving, Gu Ji reminded him that he should let the federal police find Aunt Sunglasses as soon as possible.
After all, one more drug dealer in his hand as a "hostage" will also have one more hole card for negotiation.
Milburn said easily in the intercom headset: "Don't worry, Torreon's place is so big, all the checkpoints out of the city have been closed, and they can't escape!" Let's go! ”
At the sound of the command, the team's engines roared at the same time.
Compared with the federal police, the National Guard is a semi-military force after all, and the equipment has directly risen to a level, with a total of seven vehicles and a total of 35 people in the whole combat group, six of which are armed pickup trucks, equipped with Israeli Negev light machine guns, and the head Milburn is riding a Humvee M1152 off-road vehicle equipped with bulletproof steel plates, with the US M249 squad machine gun.
In terms of individual equipment, not only is the protective gear more complete, but the G36 assault rifles used are also fully equipped with a foregrip, collimating or telescopic optical sights, and muzzle brakes.
Gu Ji also caught a glimpse of a sniper carrying a Barrett M107A1 large-caliber anti-materiel rifle, as well as a team of fire support units using a Mexican self-developed FX-05 automatic rifle with a grenade launcher hanging underneath.
To tell the truth, this is the first time he has seen a police force carrying such heavy firepower in internal operations, except for the previous arrest of Sun Hengfei and Zhao Wenwu.
But that's right.
What equipment does a drug dealer have?
Fully automatic weapons, grenades, RPG rockets, heavy machine guns, plus homemade armored vehicles, and tanks and artillery are all missing.
If you don't bring a little "ruthless", it is estimated that you won't even be able to hit the skin!
Driving out of the police headquarters, the federal police are under martial law to catch drug dealers, and there are very few vehicles on the streets of the city, and they quickly pass through the checkpoint and reach the field.
Along the way, Gu Ji observed the satellite map of his mobile phone while helping Milburn show the way.
Just as the convoy had just entered the state of Durango, the mission progress bar in the lower left corner of his vision suddenly jumped twice in a row.
[Number of civilian fatalities on current flights: 4/20]
Suddenly two people died at once?
Don't even think about it, it must be the hand of a drug dealer!
He hurriedly pressed the walkie-talkie button.
"Captain Milburn, hurry up, the drug dealer should have spotted the flight passenger by now!"
"Okay, don't worry."
"Mr. Yasen, the drug dealers didn't get any news from us, so they shouldn't have found the passengers so quickly, right?"
Betty, who was sitting in the back row, asked with some concern, biting her lip.
Of course, Gu Ji couldn't say that he found it from the game mission, "The car we drove to Torreon belonged to drug dealers, they only need to check the license plate number, they will know who it is and where it is, let the drone search along the vicinity of that area, and soon find out the location of the plane!" ”
"Oh my God, what are we going to do back, wouldn't it be better to leave it to the police and the army directly!"
"Shut up!"
When Riddle heard that the drug dealer might have discovered the passenger, he was so frightened that he complained casually, but was called back by Gu Ji on the spot.
Saleh frowned.
"Then will we go back now?"
"Yes, so I'm not going to go back the way I came."
Gu Ji knew that the drug dealer would definitely find the passengers, so when he pointed out the direction to Milburn just now, he changed his direction in advance.
He is ready to intercept and rescue the drug dealer on the way back from taking away the passengers.
Because once people are taken to the drug dealers' lair, they will not only face more armed drug dealers, but also more ammunition and firepower, and then it will change from an interception battle to a CQB battle, and it will be a hellish difficulty CQB.
If memory serves.
When the second week was finally surrounded by drug dealers, the convoy was coming from the southwestern part of the grassland.
According to the satellite map.
Mexico is a sparsely populated country with scattered towns and few major highways.
So, they ran all the way south along the state road, and if they picked up their speed, they had a chance to catch up with the drug dealers who were starting from the dirt road, after all, hundreds of passengers could not be easily transferred from the wilderness.
Half an hour later, the landscape on both sides of the road changed from a semi-desert to a grassland, and then gradually replaced by a tree-covered hillside.
Bare, huge pinnacles stand not far away.
Gu Ji had been staring at the satellite map, calculating the time from the plane crash point to the road, perhaps because the map navigation knowledge attached to the heading mark had not been completely forgotten, he roughly calculated the approximate time and direction of the drug dealer's drive from the mountains and forests to the road.
"It should be about ...... here"
He immediately picked up the binoculars, pressed the passenger window, and looked out into the field.
But the drug dealer convoy didn't find it, but saw a white Toyota SUV parked on the grass next to the highway, but unexpectedly, on the co-pilot's window, there was also a young man in a white vest and a peaked cap, who was observing them with a telescope.
"Captain Milburn, there's a problem with the vehicle ahead!!"
