The rebellion was quelled much faster than Chen Shen had expected, presumably because the so-called "deal" had been reached, or because the president staged a modern version of "Cao Cao's letter burning", in short, with the exception of some of the officers and soldiers in the raider camp who had been bloodied, the rebels gathered near La Botha were quickly disbanded, and the truly "modern army" under the president's command took over La Botha and planned to begin a large-scale purge campaign.

The JD elements entrenched in Sulawesi were all frightened, some of them trying to fight the trapped beasts, and the vast majority of them fell silent completely.

However, all this has nothing to do with Chen Shen.

After completing the final handover with the military and confirming al-Bashir's death, he disengaged directly from the military.

——

Except, of course, Buck.

Now his situation is extremely special, no one will really send him to a military court for "homicide", but what he has done is really not acceptable to the existing order in Indonesia.

As a result, he could not return to Task Force 88 and could not continue to engage with the police.

Before the events were finally determined, he became a "free man" that no one wanted.

So, with nothing to do, he directly found Chen Shen and wanted to ask Chen Shen for some "advice".

Sitting in the office of the Dongfeng Corps, Buck carefully took off the hat of gauze that Hirakawa had given him to protect his head, and said in a polite but equal tone:

So that's what I told you."

"After this incident, my situation may become quite awkward."

"I'm probably going to run out of things for a long time to come."

"Can you imagine? Now no one even wants to investigate me. ”

"I reached out to the military and the police, but they just told me to get some rest."

"This situation is unsettling to me, so I wanted to ask you-—— you're probably the only person I have access to who knows the whole story, and maybe you can give me some advice."

"Of course, if my request is presumptuous for you, then sorry to bother."

Hearing his words, Chen Shen nodded slightly and did not answer immediately.

In fact, he had already had some communication with Buck before, and he also learned from his mouth about his previous "secret intersection" with the Dongfeng Corps.

Objectively speaking, Buck let go of the Dongfeng Corps twice, and the last time, when they had already pulled out their stingers, he was still able to press the action.

In a sense, this man's position is indeed extremely firm.

——

Of course, not on behalf of Task Force 88, on behalf of the military, on behalf of a certain interest group, but on behalf of the real "Indonesian people".

The choice he made was in the interests of the country.

Or at least, from his point of view, in the interests of the country.

Therefore, in Chen Shen's view, this is indeed a relatively "pure" person, especially in an environment like Indonesia, although he is also contaminated with a lot of mud on the surface, but the core is still quite pure.

Such a person, not to mention that they can cooperate, but there is really no harm in contacting and contacting.

What's wrong with giving him some useful advice when the authority allows it and doesn't affect the overall situation?

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

"The situation in Indonesia as a whole is much more complicated than you think, and I can give you two basic pieces of information."

"First, no one will hold you accountable for Viranto's death, he most likely killed himself by swallowing a gun."

"Second, you won't be able to do it in the military police system in the future, you must show enough 'sincerity' to convince your superiors, otherwise, the situation you will face in the future is likely to be. Control usage. ”

"Control usage?"

Buck asked, confused.

Obviously, he couldn't quite understand the true meaning of this literal translation from the north.

——

From this point of view, linguistically, he is indeed inferior to the jackal.

In the words of the jackal, this kind of pun, he is afraid that he will know what it means as soon as he hears it

Chen Shen coughed and said:

"That is, on the surface, it is to use, but in fact it is to control."

"They're going to monitor you as a sensitive target and give you one. Idle post, with a sum of money, in exchange for the stability of the rest of your life. ”

"That's not bad."

Buck smiled and nodded, and continued:

"It turned out to be at least better than I expected, and I thought I might be killed when it was over."

"Like dying of the sequelae of a concussion or something."

"Impossible."

Chen Shen shook his head and replied:

"If that's the case, I'm the one who did it."

"Got it."

"Anyway, thank you."

Barker's expression was sincere, but after a brief silence, he suddenly spoke again:

"But there's still some way to go before you say 'it's over.'"

"What should I do in the meantime?"

"There's nothing to do. Wait. ”

Chen Shen spread his hands and replied.

"Okay."

Buck nodded helplessly, looking at his expression, Chen Shen couldn't help but feel a little emotional.

He is actually destined to be buried.

No matter how big the ideals and ambitions in his heart are, after this incident, he will inevitably fall victim to some power play.

——

But perhaps, I can give him a chance?

To be honest, Buck's dilemma can't be solved from the inside.

But "external forces" like themselves, especially those who have made great contributions to this turmoil, can do something.

At the end of the day, he's just a small character.

The purpose of the official control of him is only to ensure that some truths that should be buried are not revealed.

That being the case.

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

"There's another option."

"Join the Dongfeng Corps?"

Buck immediately answered, then shook his head and replied:

"I'm sorry I had to turn down your kindness."

"My family is here, this is my country, my land, I can't be a mercenary and wander around."

"It's not."

Chen Shen interrupted Buck and continued:

"You don't need to join the Dongfeng Corps, you just need to cooperate with us."

"We need someone to be able in Indonesia. Make connections. ”

"Do you understand what I mean? Relying on the power of the Dongfeng Corps, you can quickly increase your influence. ”

"And as long as the influence breaks through a boundary, you can break the fate of being controlled."

"It's a win-win, understandable?"

Buck nodded abruptly and replied:

"You want me to be the broker of the Dongfeng Corps."

"That's right."

"Would you like to give me this opportunity?"

"You'll need to hand me a petition."

Chen Shen spoke decisively and put forward his own conditions:

"Our mission is not over, next, we need to take control of a cargo ship that is moving at sea."

"There are civilians on this cargo ship, there are militants, and maybe other forces that we don't know about."

"We need to control all the crew on board as much as possible, and we only have one chance to attack, and we have to guarantee an absolute success rate."

"I've heard that you served in Mahrush before joining Task Force 88, and you should be very professional in this area."

"Help us with this task, and I'll give you a chance."

Buck nodded lightly and replied:

"I did retire from Mahrush."

"So you're going to do it. VBSS Tasks? ”

"That's right."

"You need me to train your team?"

"No, we don't need training, what we need is. Actual combat drills. ”

"Understood."

Hearing this, Buck nodded solemnly.

"I joined. But I will not do anything for you that is detrimental to the interests of this country. ”

"Of course."

A smile appeared on Chen Shen's face.

"We're not America, we don't do this kind of thing."

"Believe me, after a while, you will really know what 'win-win' is"

Cooperation with Buck was not originally in Chen Shen's plan, but after communication, he did find that this was the most suitable "foreign aid" he could find at present.

The reason is very simple, he is about to lead a team to carry out an anti-hijacking mission on a cargo ship at sea, and the members of the Dongfeng Corps are actually not familiar with this type of mission, including Chen Shen himself, who does not have much actual combat experience.

Where did they play this in their last life?

When the strength was weak in the early stage, the ship basically did not check, and mainly tracked, monitored, and attacked ground dens.

In the later stage, the strength is sufficient, and the ship inspection is not so complicated.

The 22mm caliber anti-aircraft gun is on your head, and you dare to tell me that you don't dock and stop the ship? Then I really dare to give you a shot.

After the ship stops, the ship controlled at the pier will not immediately carry out the search, and in many cases it will be left to dry for a few days, and then the ship will be turned upside down by the way when the net collection operation on the ground is over.

Even if there were hidden militants on board, they surrendered in a few days .

Therefore, in this aspect, Chen Shen is really not professional.

His original plan was to ask Xiaoyu for help and transfer a few instructors from the police or the Mahrash unit for emergency training.

But now, if Buck was a Mahrash veteran, wouldn't it be easier to find him?

So, the matter was settled, and only two hours later, all 12 members of the Dongfeng Corps, except for the wounded, gathered and began their first round of theoretical lessons.

In fact, there is a strong similarity between VBSS tactics and CQB tactics to some extent.

Both tactics are to fight in narrow terrain, and both are to complete control or "clear" all enemies in the target area in the shortest possible time, so as to achieve the goal of rescuing hostages and clearing the area.

However, unlike urban tactics such as CQB, all processes of VBSS tactics are extremely dangerous.

The so-called VBSS refers to the four parts of approaching, boarding, searching, and seizure, of which there are three different ways of "approaching" alone: air, sea, and underwater, and in each way, a variety of different modes of action are derived.

For example, helicopters approach at low altitudes, rappel and board ships; For example, the dinghy tracks the approach, and uses the gangway or soft ladder to climb and board the boat; For example, when diving underwater, you can board the boat with a rope.

Each mode of action requires a high level of professionalism from the team, which is determined by the particularity of the offshore platform.

If the untrained special operations forces act at will, the mission usually ends in a tragic end.

One of the most typical cases is the Mayagüis cargo ship hijacking case in 1975.

At that time, a Cambodian force hijacked the Mayagüis freighter and took 39 crew members hostage, and the U.S. Marines decided to carry out the operation themselves after preliminary reconnaissance, but they still paid a heavy price of 41 lives despite the overall superiority of equipment and intelligence, and the full use of 200 marines, and the operation ended in failure.

It is precisely because of the tragic lessons of this incident that after 1978, the US special forces began to conduct special training in anti-hijacking and anti-hijacking at sea, and gradually developed them into a set of mature and systematic tactics.

Since then, this set of tactics has been rapidly popularized, and the special forces of various countries, especially the naval special forces, have learned it.

Chen Shen still remembers that there was a typical description of VBSS tactics in a movie he watched in his previous life, which also proved that this tactic is actually not low in popularity.

However, the popularity is not low, and it does not mean that everyone can have fun.

Even when the intelligence is very detailed and the equipment is extremely well prepared, no one can guarantee the success of the operation.

Objectively speaking, this assault on the freighter was even as dangerous as it had been when they had faced the regular army directly.

Therefore, after a round of theoretical classes and confirmed the basic capability boundaries of the Dongfeng Corps, Buck, as an instructor, also frowned.

He found Chen Shen alone and said:

"It's a very difficult task."

"I have a basic understanding of your situation, I have strong personal ability, tacit cooperation, and CQB combat experience."

"If it's on the ground, if it's a pure CQB operation, you won't suffer much loss against any elite special forces in the world."

"But the problem is that VBSS is not CQB after all, and VBSS and CQB are not at the same level in terms of terrain complexity alone."

"Without professional training, you simply can't do it smoothly."

"A very simple example, in the extremely cramped interior of a ship, your team members are barely able to use smoke grenades and stun grenades on a large scale."

"That alone is enough to reduce your combat effectiveness by a large margin."

"What's more, you still have to ensure the survival of the enemy as much as possible-—— how can it be so simple to capture them alive?"

"So my advice is actually. Don't go for a standardized VBSS. ”

Hearing Buck's words, Chen Shen nodded approvingly.

Then he spoke:

"That's what I'm looking for you for."

"We can't win this by normal means."

"We need you to tailor a set of tactics to the characteristics of our team."

"I understand."

Buck nodded slowly, then spoke:

"The target is a cargo ship, and the enemy is a JD element."

"There are still nearly 40 hours before the start of the operation, so there is plenty of time to prepare."

"Then during this time, we will first complete the basic VBSS skills training."

"Wait until more detailed information is in place, and then think about the specific way to play."
