Chapter 342: Linkage
The discovery of home-made explosives in the factory is actually a fairly obvious signal.
Because this means that the conspiracy of the local extremist forces against the Qingshan Park has actually been going on for a long time, and it is not really after the arrival of the Dongfeng Corps that they began to attack the Qingshan Park.
On the other hand, the use of black powder to make explosives is also different from the style of JIS and EIM, which Chen Shen was familiar with before.
After all, the personnel of these two organizations are complex and the "technical strength" is relatively high, and theoretically, it is impossible for them to use black powder anyway.
Even if you don't use TATP like the one you found this time, it's still very simple to get some ammonium nitrate explosives.
No matter how bad it is, what about directly on the Molotov cocktail and thermite?
Isn't this much more lethal than black powder?
——
In fact, there is a misconception here, that is, many people think that pouring out the black powder in fireworks and pouring it together, as long as the quantity is enough, can cause a powerful enough explosion.
After all, there is news of fireworks and firecrackers factory explosions every three or five times in the world, and judging from previous reports, the power of the explosion is still considerable.
But actually, it's really not that good.
In the case of insufficient equivalence, it is at best a "cannon battle".
The range of the overpressure zone is very small, and if it is not for the output close to the face, it is difficult to say how much damage it can cause in addition to giving people ears a hard blow.
If you want to increase the power of black powder, generally speaking, there are only three ways, purification, compression, and granulation.
The difficulty of these three techniques is not low, although it seems simple, but if you really want to do it, you might as well take some time to go back to your kitchen and do TATP.
And like the black powder found in the factory this time, it is the most primitive crude black powder.
All of them are less than 5 kilograms, and the TNT equivalent is about 1 kilogram.
What is the concept of a 1 kilogram TNT explosion?
Let's put it this way, if you throw it into your living room and you happen to be reading a book in the study next door, then after the explosion, you may be shocked by the violent shock wave and your chest will be stuffy, your heart will beat faster, the weak may die suddenly, and the unlucky may be injured by the flying building materials.
But even if there is only a wall of separation, there is basically no possibility of fatality.
As for trying to blow up the house?
Even ordinary brick and timber structures do not cause too serious structural damage, let alone the steel-concrete structures that are now commonly used
So, it's really not common to attack with this thing, and it's even stranger to make a detonating device that is not elaborate but not crude, even more so for a large grenade.
Chen Shen frowned and watched the movements of the EOD unit in the distance, and after confirming his safety, he stepped forward to reveal his identity, showed the documents that Argus had temporarily handled for him, and completed the handover with the EOD unit.
In order to protect the physical evidence, he did not rashly grab it, but stood aside, carefully using the branches he picked up to stir up the explosives that had been scattered all over the place.
Bao Qi and Shi Dakai squatted beside him, and after a brief glance, Bao Qi opened his mouth and said:
"The standard IED design, detonated by a radio short circuit, looks like I've learned something, but not much."
"This thing is not designed to detonate the detonator, there are so many black powder, the detonation speed is not high, and there is no granulated powder, if it really explodes, it won't be a large firework, right?"
"It's weird, you say he's rough, he can make a detonator."
"But you say he knows how to do it, and the things he makes are not of much use."
"It looks like an amateur, and it's unlikely that it was done by a professional technician from the JD organization."
Hearing his words, Chen Shen nodded slightly, and then replied:
"Same as I thought."
"I suspect that some peripheral member may want to do something on their own, and they are groping for it according to the textbooks issued by the organization."
"He didn't have basic chemical knowledge, and he couldn't make complex explosives, so he chose black powder."
"One sulfur, two nitrate and three charcoal, the ratio is relatively simple. But it is possible that he overestimated the power of black powder."
"Possibly."
Shi Dakai also nodded, and after thinking for a moment, he spoke again:
"In this way, we have been able to eliminate a large number of suspects."
"First of all, among the Chinese employees, those skilled workers and highly educated workers can basically be excluded, and if they want to do it, there is a high probability that they will not choose such a rudimentary explosive."
"And the ordinary workers among the Chinese employees. It's hard for me to imagine any incentive for them to do such a thing. ”
"In other words, the suspicion still falls on the local employees."
"But the local staff has been emptied today."
Bao Qi said suspiciously.
Hearing his words, Chen Shen opened his mouth and said:
"Maybe it wasn't put in today-—— I have to find Zhang Yang to confirm the specific situation."
"The security department will patrol the factory every day, maybe they will have new clues."
After a brief communication, all the members of the security department, including the BC personnel involved in the security inspection, gathered and reported their understanding in turn.
Combined with the information they had, Chen Shen found that he was indeed right.
In the past few days, there have been too many special situations inside and outside the park, so that there has been a certain degree of confusion in the internal management, in fact, this factory has not been properly inspected for two days.
That is, at the earliest, probably two days earlier, the makers of explosives had already put things in the plant.
And at that time, it was the time of the chaos in Labotta.
Was this part of the original plan for the riot, but because the Dongfeng Corps reacted quickly and vigorously to quell the turmoil, so that the explosion originally arranged inside the park did not happen?
The possibilities are high.
But if that's the case, it's very difficult to find the murderer.
"Looks like your vacation is going to be extended."
Chen Shen said in a slightly mocking tone.
Hearing his words, Zhang Yang also nodded helplessly.
"No way, if the explosives have entered the park, it means that we are not clean inside."
"If it's so unclean, no one dares to continue to use the original person."
"I'm afraid we'll have to re-audit all the local staff, or . . . We have to recruit a new group of people. ”
Hearing this, Chen Shen's eyes lit up.
He suddenly remembered that in fact, he had talked to Zhang Yang about this topic.
——
Local staff is not easy to use, Chinese staff is too expensive, so why. Why don't you recruit a group of low-cost and easy-to-use people?
In fact, the work in the mine has no technical content, but the quality of "hard-working and hard-working" is relatively high.
So since that's the case.
Aren't the civilians of Pubei the best choice?
The only problem is that it is just a "passport".
However, with the close intersection between the Bao family and the Bagan government, there is no problem in temporarily issuing a batch of passports if there is a legitimate reason, right?
At the beginning, it only took 3 days for my group of people to apply for passports.
After all, the more undisciplined the place, the more you can "not follow the rules".
Thinking of this, Chen Shen coughed and said:
"Why don't I give you a new batch?"
"You give me a change? From? ”
Zhang Yang subconsciously asked, but he quickly reacted.
"Bagan!?"
"Boss Chen, can you do this?"
There was a look of surprise on his face - in fact, in his cognition, Chen Shen had always been a fierce soldier, just like the serious soldiers he had come into contact with, he was a good hand at fighting, but he was much weaker in other aspects.
Such people are generally not good at socializing and not good at business, but now.
Chen Shen actually said that he wanted to change the batch of people for himself?
Doesn't this mean that what he did in Pubei was far from being as simple as he thought?
Looking at his expression, Chen Shen smiled and replied:
"As long as you want it, I can get it."
"You pay for the road, although I don't dare to say how much you want to give, but it's no problem to get one or two hundred in the first batch."
"If there are so many people, the production work in the Qingshan Park will basically be guaranteed."
"And Pubei people also have one advantage, that is, they are similar to us in terms of cultural identity - you are closer, and the difficulty of management will be much reduced."
"No problem!"
Zhang Yang nodded decisively, and then said:
"The management of local employees is a matter that our subsidiaries decide on their own, and I can make decisions about this!"
"Now the situation in Indonesia is too complicated, and there are too many bad people in their masses, it is better to simply isolate them completely!"
"Come on, do it!"
Having said that, Chen Shen didn't show too eagerness.
He opened his mouth and said:
"But you have to think about it, if you change to Pubei people, there will be no way to solve the employment problem in Indonesia, how do you plan to compensate the local government in Sulawesi?"
"It's more cost-effective to send money to the local government than to send money to these disobedient and inefficient workers. You don't have to worry about that. ”
Zhang Yang smiled slightly and replied:
"In many cases, the so-called increase in employment is just a number on paper."
"We have all kinds of ways to influence this number as to whether it's true or not. Actually, no one cares. ”
"What they care about is how much they can get out of the numbers."
"Understood. Then it's decided, I'll contact, and we'll discuss the specific cost! ”
After saying goodbye to Zhang Yang, Chen Shen returned to his office.
He had thought about using this opportunity to tie the interests of the Dongfeng Corps-—— or to be precise, the interests of the Dongfeng Group with the Qingshan Park, and by the way, he would find an opportunity to let the influence of the Dongfeng Group break through Pubei, but he didn't expect that this opportunity would come so soon.
Transporting manpower-—— which is essentially the work of a human resources company, or to put it mildly, that is, selling heads.
However, there is also a difference between selling heads and selling heads.
I don't just want to make profits with the help of heads, but more importantly, I still want to open this "channel".
Just imagine, what will happen if the personnel exchanges between Pubei and Indonesia become normalized in the future?
The closed pattern of the entire Pubei will be completely broken, and with the general trend of the "Maritime Silk Road", Dongfeng Group, and even the entire Pubei, can achieve unprecedented development.
The basic handicap is further consolidated, and if you want to go further, you will have more powerful hole cards
Chen Shen did not hesitate, he immediately dialed the phone numbers that dialed Bao Xiaomei and Peng Xucheng respectively, and explained his plan to them.
Needless to say, as long as it is a profitable business, he will not refuse at all.
As for Bao Xiaomei?
Even the mere fact of relying on this business to connect with a "regular company" from the north is enough to make her tempted
So, the plan was drawn up smoothly, and the two of them performed their respective duties and immediately began to prepare.
Just half an hour later, Peng Xucheng called back and told Chen Shen that he had found the right candidate.
"I have communicated with He Bangxiong, and he plans to unite with He Bupa to reduce the strength of the coalition army."
"This is a condition of the deal with the Burmese side, and it is also a means for him to cut back on non-essential spending."
"The first batch of disarmament will involve about 400 people, and we can pick any of these people!"
Hearing Peng Xucheng's words, Chen Shen was dumbfounded.
I rub, I just asked you to find me some mine workers, you gave me a whole bunch of militia??
——
Of course, in Pubei, the demarcation between the two is not so obvious.
But, after all, these are hundreds of militias that have received basic military training, have basic combat effectiveness, and can fight with guns.
Wait a minute.
As if this is indeed the best option?!
After all, Tsingshan Industrial Park requires a certain amount of self-protection ability, and it cannot simply rely on the security department and Dongfeng Group to protect them at all times.
Who wouldn't want to have an organized team if they had a choice?
At least, with this group of people, if there is a mass riot like last time, the response plan of Qingshan Park will directly come up with several more.
Perfect!
A satisfied smile appeared on Chen Shen's face, and then he replied:
"No problem, you do a round of preliminary screening first, and screen out those who are not clean and dishonest."
"Then, contact Bao Xiaomei, get their passports out as soon as possible, and send them over as soon as possible!"
"By the way, what about the person I want? When will it be in place? What did the old pig say? ”
Hearing his words, Peng Xucheng immediately replied:
"It's done, take off the day after tomorrow at the latest, fly first to Jakarta and then to Sulawesi."
"One more thing, our tanks have been shipped, and they are expected to arrive in Tachili within two weeks."
"In addition, the armored vehicles from Thailand will be shipped soon, and our armored forces will soon be able to build up."
"In terms of manpower. Do you have to speed up the old pig? ”
"Accelerate, accelerate!"
Chen Shen replied without hesitation:
"Let him recruit as soon as possible and train as soon as possible."
"Things are moving faster than expected on my side, and in a week or two, there will be a preliminary result."
"When the time comes, I will solve the Indonesian problem as quickly as possible, and then return to Pubei."
"When I get back, I'm going to see a formed armored company!"
"Time is running out for you. The next time I go back to Pubei, it will be the time to completely solve the problem in Pubei! ”
"Understood!"
Peng Xu nodded resolutely.
Then, the phone hung up, and Chen Shen breathed a long sigh of relief.
This time, Indonesia and Pubei are finally linked.
Once al-Bashir's issue is decided, he will immediately move to further consolidate the ties he has already established in his follow-up actions, and find a way to open up the "upper level relations" in Indonesia.
When the time comes, Dongfeng Group can get a broad market here.
And if you want armored equipment again, you don't have to buy it from Africa secretly.
In 2011, Indonesia is about to start a large-scale equipment replacement, and these obsolete but still usable things should also find a place to exert their residual heat.
Chen Shen remembers that in just a few years, they eliminated nearly 200 AMX-13s that were basically usable.
I don't know what kind of spectacular scene these tanks will be if they are pulled to Pubei.
——
Or more radically, what if you can get one or two Leopard-2s?
By that time, what Wen Beng, what MPRI, what CIA, what Kachin .
Can you try one with me?!
