Battlefield Contractor

The South African Police Service Special Task Force has a very well-known reputation in counter-terrorism, insurgency and hostage rescue. Unlike most police counter-terrorism units in the world, their task forces are also trained to conduct military special operations and often participate in wars, especially during the 30-year border war.

Although South Africa is not a war-torn area, it has the highest murder rate and the most life-threatening country in the world. This also resulted in their police force being very strong. The active force of the National Defense Forces is not too much, only 70,000, but the police force has 140,000. KwaZulu Natal, a province with a population of only 32 million, has 23,000 police officers.

Moreover, with its solid national strength and developed military industry, the South African army has reached a very high level of modernization in both equipment and training. The 44th Paratrooper Brigade, which was founded in the mid-1960s, is recognized as one of the elite troops with the most practical combat experience in the world today.

But the seriousness of what happened today is self-evident. The SAPS headquarters of the South African Ministry of Public Security has been alarmed. The head of the police force personally handled the matter and established a special response command at the first time. A group of soldiers in blue uniforms, berets, and black bullet-proof vests were all on standby, even the armored vehicles were ready.

"How is the current situation at the International Conference Center?" asked a black man in uniform.

"In the latest news, the bandits released ten hostages. According to them, this is a response to the removal of part of the blockade. But ten minutes later, if the helicopter they requested is not available, they will continue to execute the hostages." A colonel replied. . "And because there are a lot of news media there, the whole process is being broadcast live, and the impact is very big."

"I think we should still resolve it through negotiation. These militants behaved very professionally, and they still hold hundreds of lives in their hands. What's terrible is that many of these people are media reporters. If we don't handle it properly, it will cause If there are a lot of casualties, the saliva of major media all over the world can blow us to death." A man in a suit shook his head.

"Not only public opinion, but also international pressure. A considerable number of journalists in it are foreigners. Many countries have already told us that they are closely following the progress of this matter. Several heavyweights have expressed their hope that we To be able to handle this crisis properly. The meaning is already obvious. They don't want to see too many casualties." The uniformed head of the police force sighed.

"Then what shall we do? Compromise with them?" The colonel frowned. "Our people are ready on the periphery and can launch an assault at any time. Forcibly rescue the hostages."

"But it doesn't work. These kidnappers are not street gangsters." The man in a suit shook his head and said, "Look at this video. Their equipment is all special equipment suitable for urban street fighting.

From occupying the conference center to controlling the situation. Their operational efficiency is even higher than our well-trained special forces. All this shows that we are not facing ordinary armed criminals. The so-called Great Orumi Freedom Liberation Organization is a group of very organized terrorists. If a forcible assault is carried out, the hostages are bound to cause serious casualties. "

"Moreover, these gangsters are behaving wisely now, they have not lost control, and even released some of the hostages. At this time, if we forcibly assault and cause a large number of casualties, we will be completely passive. Everyone will question us because we clearly Seeing the hope that it can be resolved through negotiation, but obsessed with using force." The chief of police also nodded.

"What should I do?" The colonel said helplessly. "Do you really give them a helicopter?"

"I think we can prepare a helicopter for them first, at least stabilize their emotions, and let these gangsters see the hope of leaving alive. Stop the execution of the hostages. Then, we can ask them to continue to release the hostages. Our negotiation expert is already on the scene. Negotiated with them." The man in the suit nodded.

"Well, I promise to give them helicopters first. Transfer two bk117 helicopters. In addition, they must be told that we can only deliver them after guaranteeing the release of the hostages." The police chief said helplessly, "I hope they can continue to release the hostages."

At this time, in addition to the SAPS headquarters of the South African Public Security Service Department was in tension. The headquarters of the Black Island Military Company on the island of St. Kaiser is also quiet. "How is the situation?" Michelle Silver Wolf paced back and forth.

"Some of the members have been rescued by Crystal. They are currently being detained in the form of fighting and staying safely in the police station. They will get out of the situation after only a few days. Rick and the others are in very bad condition." He whispered, "They are trapped in the International Conference Center. The Secret Service’s militants have taken them hostage. What’s more, communication is blocked. I can’t contact them at all. I don’t know if their identities have been identified. ."

"They are still alive, that is, their identities have not been discovered." Black Panther Gulei frowned, "If the secret society knows their identities, they will definitely be executed in the first batch."

Silver Wolf squinted his eyes and was silent for a while, then turned his head and asked Cobain, "When was the communication interrupted?"

"About twenty minutes ago, the press conference was held, which is when they entered the venue." Cobain looked at the computer and replied, "I thought of many ways, but it should not be our problem, but the communication signal. Was seriously disturbed."

"In other words, after they entered the venue, the communication was interrupted." Silver Wolf Michelle shook his head. "They are not exposed, but have been exposed. This press conference itself is the game that got them hooked. And the secret The agency also knows that they have to take the bait. Because they are posing as reporters, it is impossible not to attend this press conference."

"So they are in danger now?" Cobain paled.

"Very dangerous." Michelle Silver Wolf whispered, "How many people are trapped?"

"Rick, Crazy Horse, Rose, Jiang An, Yelena and Sandro. They were originally pretended to be a news interview team, exactly six people." Cobain whispered. "This is all over. If the secret agency sees through them, they are really over. Because they didn't have any weapons on them to avoid suspicion."

Silver Wolf Michelle paced back and forth and whispered, "Cobain, I need you to keep an eye on the development of the situation. In addition, contact Vitalk immediately to see what else he can do. No matter what, you must Lin Rui rescued them!"
