Chapter 339: Correcting Mistakes

Chen Shen did not predict how much impact Bashir's "second arrest" would have on Indonesia, and with Xiaoyu confirming that "someone has already taken the blame", he originally thought that this matter might just pass, and then it would enter a long, boring and tedious negotiation stage.

But he never imagined that after sending off al-Bashir, in the hour's journey back to La Bota from Moravi, countless "big things" in the true sense of the word had already happened.

In order to ensure that Chen Shen had a sense of the situation, Xiaoyu transmitted real-time information to Chen Shen every few minutes.

And each of these pieces of information can be called absolute blockbuster news.

The man who stood up to bear the blame was naturally going to die, he died by suicide, with a grenade that was blown up in the head by a gun.

In addition to him, a large number of high-ranking members of Task Force 88 were controlled, two of whom tried to resist arrest and were killed on the spot.

The helicopters of the Mobile Brigade were dispatched everywhere, and the whole city of Kendari was under martial law, but the military, which was supposed to take on the functions of vigilance and law and order maintenance at such a time, was completely excluded, but it was Gunawan, who was the first to get the news and the first to order his subordinates not to move, gained the trust and, with the authorization of the president, began to dispatch the naval and air police forces near Kendari that did not rush to Rabota to support, and took on the heavy responsibility of martial law.

This is an Indonesian version of the "Marine Police Coming Ashore", and I don't know how many people will fall in this turmoil.

But that's just the beginning.

It is not easy to clean up the cockroaches on the surface, and those eggs at the deeper level cannot just rely on "slipper slapping".

Perhaps, we have to use fire to completely burn the soil where the eggs are growing.

It wasn't until the people of the Dongfeng Corps returned to La Bota that Xiaoyu's intelligence sharing came to an end.

Chen Shen, who got out of the car, had a complicated expression, and he was already vaguely aware that things were developing in an uncontrollable direction.

——

This is still in the hands of the president, and the speed of change has reached this level, if the president, or the president's core team, really sees al-Bashir, will it still be able to end the game?

However, he didn't have a good way to deal with it.

can only "get out of the battlefield" first, hide aside, and wait for the gods to finish fighting, and then find a way to do something of their own.

Thinking of this, he let out a long sigh to dispel some chaotic thoughts in his mind, and then walked to Zhang Yang, who had already led the team to greet him at the gate of Qingshan Park, and asked briefly and directly:

"How's it going over here? Is your backup solution ready? ”

"Ready."

Zhang Yang hurriedly replied:

"Two small seaplanes, on standby 24 hours a day, if the most extreme situation really happens, you can board the plane and take off within 15 minutes, first to a deserted island near Obi Island, where you can replenish fuel and resupply before flying to the Ayu Islands."

"From the Ayu Islands, you can fly directly across the border to Papua New Guinea, and when you get there, Indonesia basically can't do anything about you."

"However, this is the final evacuation plan, and if the situation allows, I still hope that you can stay in Indonesia and stay in Sulawesi."

"Nonsense, we don't want to go either."

Chen Shen shook his head helplessly and continued:

"But the problem is, none of us can predict how far things will go next."

"There are tens of thousands of people on both sides of the military and the civilian clique, and as long as one of them is irrational, then it will be all a calf."

"The mobile brigade has already shown radical tendencies, and the military can only retract, otherwise, there will be a big fight"

"Forget it, let's not talk about that, what do Argus and Gunawan say?"

Hearing Chen Shen's question, Zhang Yang replied:

"Gunawan is already on his way to Kendari, and the superintendent of Makassar is on his way there, and Argus is going to take over the investigation of Rabota's time."

"The police are in a mess now, they have too many things to do, and the most troublesome thing is that they can't use the power of Task Force 88."

"Argus said he wanted to see you, and he had something to communicate with you, and I guess it was about the follow-up safe haven."

"I suggest you go see him later, and you can put the rest of the matter on hold."

"I can't let it go."

Chen Shen shook his head decisively and replied:

"Now that the situation is so chaotic, the JD elements in Sulawesi must be moving on to the wind."

"You said they wouldn't take advantage of the fire to rob and carry out some surprise attacks when the police were transferred to Kendari, even a three-year-old child wouldn't believe it."

"We have to strengthen the defense of the park, and the park has to stop production and take a holiday."

"Get all the local employees out of the house and let them go home!"

"For at least a week, we will ensure the safety of the park, especially the safety of the Chinese employees."

"Understood, I'll do it right away."

Zhang Yang had no objection to Chen Shen's proposal, because he also knew that the current situation was so tense that he had to activate the highest level of warning.

The Kendari affair is not a simple terrorist attack, it is a complete subversive conspiracy!

There must have been someone in the military involved, and they must have wanted to use this super-massive attack to achieve some ulterior secrets.

And now, their plans have fallen through, and they have even been caught in the underbelly.

Then, the Dongfeng Corps on the cusp of the storm must be their primary target of retaliation, and even the Qingshan Park, which has a close relationship with the Dongfeng Corps, will also become the target of retaliation.

There is no other choice but to advance and retreat together.

Or else?

Throw the Dongfeng Corps out and leave them to deal with it alone?

No kidding, everyone has been in the same boat for a long time, and now giving up the Dongfeng Corps, the Tsingshan Group is equivalent to a de facto "defection".

Not to mention whether the Dongfeng Corps will have a grudge, the entire group will be on the list of rabbits

Therefore, it is a truly rational and truly wise choice to carry out Chen Shen's orders according to the highest standards and tide over the difficulties with them.

After a brief communication, Zhang Yang immediately began to arrange the work of vacation and evacuation, but Chen Shen did not immediately go to see Argus, because before going to see him, there was one more thing that he had to deal with.

The leader of Task Force 88, who had followed them all the way to La Botha.

Chen Shen now knows his name-—— Massimo.

Originally, Chen Shen thought that he would leave with the mobile brigade, or evacuate on his own after confirming that he would send Bashir away.

But unexpectedly, Massimo insisted on coming to La Bota, according to him, he wanted to meet Gunawan.

——

Of course, now he can't see Gunawan, but Chen Shen still has to talk to him and find out his true purpose first.

So, after returning to the office of the Dongfeng Corps, Chen Shen called Massimo in and asked him straight to the point:

"What's your plan?"

Hearing Chen Shen's words, Massimo's face darkened, and he was silent for a few seconds before he replied:

"I had wanted to meet Gunawan and communicate with him about al-Bashir."

"But now it seems that this is not something I can meddle with."

"So to be honest, I don't know what I'm going to do."

"I just felt like I wanted to do something to avenge my brothers."

"But how exactly. I really don't know at all. ”

Chen Shen nodded slightly, he could probably understand Massimo's current mood.

A sudden attack took away several of his comrades who had fought alongside him, and he was probably ready to fight those JD elements to the end.

But suddenly, with the appearance of Bashir, he found that his enemies were not only JD elements, but even his own people.

It's really hard to describe this feeling in words.

The frustration of being betrayed will push him into the abyss, and he will lose trust in everything around him.

Ironically, the only thing he can trust is the Dongfeng Corps, which has resolutely fought the JD elements to the end from beginning to end.

This mercenary group that doesn't even belong to Indonesia, comes from a chaotic region that he once looked down upon.

That's why he insisted on following the Dongfeng Corps.

Perhaps only this unfamiliar team can give him such a shallow sense of security, and make him feel that there is still a glimmer of light in this world

Thinking of this, Chen Shen opened his mouth and said:

"Actually, I can't help you, but. If you want to do something, I think you should return to Kendari as an individual to assist the police in organizing the treatment of the wounded. ”

"Well, it's nice to be a volunteer or something."

"Impossible, we've already been marked, as long as I go back to Kendari, I'm bound to be controlled."

Massimo sighed and continued:

"Of course, this is a necessary means."

"But if you can't do anything anyway. I might as well stay in La Bota. ”

"It's useless for you to stay here."

Chen Shen replied decisively.

"I can help you, you need my identity, don't you?"

"You're crazy, do you know the consequences of cooperating with us?"

Chen Shen asked helplessly.

"I know very well."

Massimo nodded firmly and continued:

"Task Force 88 has a big problem, and al-Bashir is our own hand, and in fact it is under our jurisdiction."

"But he ran out, and he even had the energy to organize such a terrorist attack."

"This proves that the upper echelons of this team have been completely corrupted by political fighting."

"I don't want to go to hell with them, I have to do something."

"Whether it works or not, I should at least give it a try, right?"

Hearing this, Chen Shen's brows furrowed.

Massimo's remarks are actually very representative, maybe not only him, but the entire 88 Task Force, there will be no fewer people who have such thoughts.

After all, the struggle at the top has nothing to do with them, the benefits do not fall on their heads, but they are the ones who charge into battle and die on the battlefield.

They are just tools, even this time, the people who are called heroes in the anti-terrorist operation are only tools.

Who would be willing to accept such a fate?

So, although it sounds a bit utilitarian, his words are definitely from the heart.

He might have been able to work with him—but not in the way he had envisioned.

Chen Shen thought for a few seconds, and then said:

"You're right."

"We can work together too."

"However, our cooperation must not be exposed, which would put both of us in a huge passivity."

"There is only one and only one kind of -—— intelligence that really makes sense of cooperation."

"Now, the intelligence system of the police and Task Force 88 is completely separated, and you have never carried out intelligence cooperation, which also greatly reduces the effectiveness of the fight against JD elements."

"Well, if you really want to do something, you can start with this."

"How about it, do you want to think about it?"

"No problem!"

Massimo replied without even hesitation, and then he immediately asked:

"Do you want us to work with the police, or do you work directly?"

"Of course the police, do you think we have the qualifications to cooperate with you? Leaking confidential information to us is also treason, right? You don't even know our true purpose! ”

"I'm sorry, but I thought it was too simple."

Massimo smiled slightly awkwardly, realizing how ridiculous his question was.

However, the fact that he was able to ask such a question shows how serious the crisis of confidence within Task Force 88 has become.

After determining the willingness and direction of cooperation, Chen Shen chatted with Massimo about the details of cooperation.

Although "intelligence cooperation" is simple to say, it is difficult to really promote it.

On the one hand, Massimo lacked authority to obtain sufficient and valuable information.

On the one hand, the relationship between the police and Task Force 88 has never been more tense, and it is not easy to build a relationship of mutual trust between the two sides.

In particular, this is not an officially recognized cooperation, but more like an "internal espionage operation" like Infernal Affairs, and its sensitivity and danger are self-evident.

Therefore, Chen Shen didn't plan to communicate too much with Massimo.

Everything can be pushed to the police who can really make decisions.

"Nothing we just said doesn't exist, you haven't talked to me, and you don't know anything about cooperation, understand?"

"Understood."

Massimo nodded knowingly and added:

"I'm saying the same thing, whether it's Argus, Gunavan, or my superiors."

"You don't have to worry that I'll betray you, there is no real deal, and no one can embarrass you at such a time."

"And, once things are exposed, I'm in greater danger than you."

Hearing his words, Chen Shen nodded with relief and said:

"Looks like you really want to do something."

A bitter smile appeared on Massimo's face, and then he replied:

"Al-Bashir killed a lot of people, including my friends, my colleagues"

"He's been a man all the way to now. Mistake. I can accept such a mistake, but I can't accept that such a mistake leads to a bigger mistake. ”

"You may not understand this, but I want to say it."

"Somebody has to correct such a mistake."
