No clues were found around the air-raid shelter, and no information was obtained from the nearby villages. The superiors still had no information on the whereabouts of the rioters.
The rescue of the hostages was at a stalemate, and Xu Chenyu was extremely anxious.
Xu Chenyu had never been so scared since he was a child. He suddenly thought of his first mission.
They were a team of five people, participating in a rescue operation where criminals were holding hostages.
At that time, the criminal's waist was full of bombs, and the hostage's carotid artery had been cut, and the situation was extremely critical.
No one dared to act rashly.
He didn't know what was wrong with his brain. He actually provoked the other party without getting any instructions from the captain. The captain shouted at him angrily through the communicator in his ear, but he turned a deaf ear to him.
The other party was extremely emotional and was about to attack the hostage. The captain even said on the communicator that he would be given a serious punishment.
At the critical moment, he fired.
Although he had trained countless times on the training ground and had long been accustomed to the sound of gunfire, the violent sound from the gun still made his eardrums deaf. All that echoed in his mind was the sound of "bang" and the blood splattering on the man's chest.
That was the first time he realized what death really meant. There was no struggle, no pain, nothing. A living life was gone just like that.
And the murderer is him!
He had never been so scared.
The sounds in his ears faded away, leaving only peace. His brain was blank, and the sound was stuck in his throat. He was sent to the army's psychological counseling room. Just like that, he didn't say a word, didn't eat or drink, didn't cry or laugh, didn't sleep or make noise. He was as quiet as a puppet for three whole days... He gradually recovered.
He thought that was the scariest moment in his life.
But it was not until this moment that he realized that what he feared most was losing Wen Xinya and not being able to save her life!
"Captain, the headquarters sent us a document. It was from an intelligence analysis team and a psychological expert team. They analyzed the possible locations where criminals might move hostages. The headquarters sent us 3D environmental simulation maps of several locations and have already assigned us additional personnel."
Xu Chenyu was shocked and stopped studying the map. He took the information and studied it carefully.
The information is very detailed, including a very reasonable psychological analysis of the rioters, and it also highlights the most likely hiding places for the rioters, and even a complete deployment.
Xu Chenyu took a deep breath, somewhat puzzled. How could the headquarters have thought of it so thoroughly and come up with such a comprehensive data analysis and deployment arrangements in such a short period of time? This saved him a lot of time.
Xu Chenyu said: "Just follow the arrangements from above."
Then Xu Chenyu issued a series of orders through the communication equipment, deploying troops near the factory and the suburbs, and then said: "The rest of the people will rush to the village to deploy immediately."
The group got ready to set off.
It takes forty minutes to get from here to the village.
About twenty minutes!
"Captain, this is bad. The thugs called the Wen family and asked them to pay the ransom in advance. They asked them to deposit the ransom into their bank card within half an hour."
Xu Chenyu's straight back slumped in an instant. As a soldier, they had to keep a straight back at all times and in all places. But at this moment, he felt that the weight of his back seemed to be a thousand pounds, which he could not bear at all.
Half an hour, only half an hour.
They still don't know Xinya's whereabouts, so how can he rescue Xinya within half an hour
He was almost going crazy, and asked in a dry voice: "Where are the exact locations of the thugs and hostages? Have you found them?"
He now hopes that the information sent to him by the military is correct, so that he will have a chance to rescue Xinya from the hands of the thugs.
"Because the call lasted less than 30 seconds, even with the most advanced equipment we used, we were unable to intercept the other party's signal and find out their location in the first place."
Xu Chenyu suddenly stood up from the sofa and threw the document in his hand at the man's face: "What do those people do for a living? Don't they know that intercepting the thugs' signals is the only way for us to track the whereabouts of the thugs and hostages? Why don't they know to delay..."
"Deputy Battalion Commander Huang said... the thugs called to demand a ransom so early, it must be that the mysterious rescue team alerted them, in order to avoid the thugs' suspicion and threaten the lives of the hostages, so..."
Xu Chenyu interrupted him and yelled, "He's out of his mind! If he delays for a second or two, the hostage may not die, but if we can't track the whereabouts of the thugs, the hostage must die. They are thugs, not ordinary kidnappers. He still hopes to pay a ransom to save the hostages. Bullshit."
Xu Chenyu's furious look frightened everyone, and they lowered their heads and dared not breathe.
Normally, the battalion commander laughed and cursed, but he had never lost control and got angry like this.
He knew that the battalion commander was worried about Miss Wen, and he also knew that Miss Wen was the battalion commander's sweetheart. When he and the battalion commander shared a bunk bed, he saw the battalion commander often secretly looking at a photo while he was sleeping at night.
Later, out of curiosity, he quietly found a photo from under the battalion commander's quilt. The person in the photo was Miss Wen.
Xu Chenyu was still roaring: "I kept him in the Wen family because he was still clear-headed. Who knew he would dare to do such a stupid thing with human lives at stake? If the hostage cannot be successfully rescued this time, I will hold him responsible."
Xiao Huang is his partner, his right-hand man. He left his arm in the Wen family, and this is the result.
At this point, Xu Chenyu knew that getting angry was useless. He took a deep breath and said, "It will be time to pay the ransom soon. The thugs will definitely call again. Tell them to be alert and keep their guard up. No one can relax or give up until the last moment. If you dare to mess with me again, I will point a gun at you, believe it or not."
"yes!"
Xu Chenyu took a breath, but the rescue was full of complications again and again, making his heart feel like it was being tortured every second.
"Captain, what should we do now?"
Xu Chenyu said: "Maintain the original deployment and inform everyone to move forward quickly regardless of the consequences. Make sure to reach the destination half an hour ago."
They are now racing against time. If the data analysis given to him by the military is correct, then there is less than half an hour left and they must rush to the destination to deploy immediately.
Xu Huyu looked at the dark night outside the window. It had been about five hours since Xinya was kidnapped. He didn't know how Xinya was doing and whether she was still being beaten by the thugs.
His heart suddenly ached and he couldn't help but bend down, with tears as big as beans falling down.
Who says men don't shed tears easily
It’s just that it’s not time to be sad yet!
