City of Evil (The Fifth Chapter: Besieged but Not Attacked)
Two female police officers are a bit embarrassed about today's events, but they still want to let their corrupt colleagues and gangsters kill each other off, so that there will be no more corrupt police or gang influence in the future, and the crime rate here will drop rapidly. Latest update E3
"Are you saying there are still good law enforcers locally?" Wen Qian's heart still had a little bit of hope.
"There are not many people like you and me in the judicial police and local police. In the judicial police bureau, there is a detective who is still capable and has high work efficiency, but every time he tries to crack a case, countless hands behind the scenes stop him.
Xiao Yan had been a police officer for several years and was already accustomed to the incompetence of law enforcement. She didn't have any way to change this situation, as the local area was too chaotic. For her, who grew up in this place, it was already normal. She became a police officer just to protect herself."
Several bandits thought they had killed the police officer on duty and walked into the detention room, kicking open the door of the police office and firing wildly inside before planning to rush in and grab the keys to rescue their comrades. The bandits' AKs opened fire almost simultaneously, and after a fierce hail of bullets, several bandits reloaded at the same time. The police officers hiding inside immediately rushed out from the corner, holding high-speed MP-5 submachine guns and firing fiercely at the bandits. When the gunfire was intense, the bandits were still reloading and had not yet defended themselves when they were killed. The remaining bandits retreated to the front hall while fighting, and a small leader shouted into the walkie-talkie, "They ambushed us! Reinforcements are coming immediately, hurry up!"
A few bandits occupied the front hall, pointing their guns at the corridor, waiting for people to come from behind. The police were not in a hurry to rush out either. These corrupt police officers were also very cunning and no one wanted to be a hero. They all shrank back and did not dare to charge out and kill the bandits together. They all cherished their own lives, while the bandits took advantage of this time to wait for reinforcements.
Facing the darkness of the entire judicial system, two young female police officers are powerless to change everything. All they can do is wait for a good opportunity to follow along and take action together. With just the two of them, it's hard to stir up an anti-corruption storm.
"Why the halt?" Wen Yong was somewhat perplexed, but he reckoned the new officer had a plan. "I reckon the bandits won't just come with one carload of people; we'll wait and see, wait until the police and bandits are evenly matched before making our move. Give the order to have the troops form up in units, armed with close combat weapons, and implement a layered encirclement of this area. Stay hidden and don't make a move without my command." Yu Fei was afraid that his conversation would be overheard by the police, so he simply communicated with his subordinates in French.
Wen Yong was a non-commissioned officer. In this country, the division of labor between officers and non-commissioned officers is very clear: officers are planners of actions, while non-commissioned officers are specific organizers and commanders. Officers do not train soldiers or personally command their subordinates to do every task in peacetime; many tasks are done by non-commissioned officers. Wen Yong took out the walkie-talkie and found that this was not a place for conversation. There were still several surviving police officers in the cafeteria, who would definitely report their deployment to their superiors if they heard it, which would definitely affect the gendarmes' execution of their task. He decisively stood up from the ground and ran to the kitchen at the back. In the corner of the kitchen, he held the walkie-talkie and shouted: "Gendarmerie squad assemble, carry weapons and emergency mobilize, surround the area near the Wanghai Angle Police Station, control those with weapons, and detain those who resist according to procedure."
The Wan Chai Police Station is far from the Marine Police's patrol area, and the walkie-talkies are unable to transmit voices over such a distance. However, the police car they were driving had a mobile radio transmitter that could relay conversations from the walkie-talkies to the Marine Police's duty room. This wireless communication system using the vehicle as a relay station was very effective.
Inside the garrison's duty room, a sergeant on duty was wearing headphones with his eyes closed, meditating. He knew that the two officers who went out were definitely not playing around, and it was possible that tonight would be the night when the Garrison would show off its skills. The local judicial system was extremely dark, and the police would often receive reports of crimes but would be slow to respond, only going to the scene after everything had been settled to make a record. The Garrison troops had long been resentful of the local law enforcement agencies, and they had been eager to take action, but no one had led them to do so. All they could do was train.
Today, the new officer had just taken office and issued an emergency mobilization order. The duty sergeant of the garrison battalion was so excited that he couldn't sit still. He immediately stood up and quickly replied: "Garrison Battalion Duty Room received, over." The duty sergeant pressed down the alarm button. The barracks of the Garrison Battalion suddenly sounded a loud alarm, and the urgent assembly alarm sounded a bit like an air raid warning. The dark camp was quickly illuminated after the alarm sounded, and the lights in each company's barracks turned on simultaneously. It was the first time for the garrison soldiers to carry out their mission, and everyone was a little excited. They put on black tactical uniforms, wore bulletproof tactical vests and helmets, picked up their weapons and received ammunition before quickly boarding the vehicles. The gate of the Garrison Battalion's camp opened, and a jeep with a machine gun and searchlight rushed out with sirens blaring. Three large military trucks followed closely behind, and then the camp became unusually quiet, with the gates tightly closed. In order to catch people, they didn't choose comfortable jeeps, but instead brought out ten-wheel large trucks.
Outside the Wan Chai Police Station, two large container trucks drove towards the police station at the same time. The trucks quickly arrived outside the police station and the doors of the containers opened. Hundreds of thugs carrying AK-47 automatic rifles rushed out of the vehicles and directly entered the police station, leaving only a dozen or so on guard outside.
Wen Yong returned to the dining room from the kitchen, just in time to see a group of bandits making a final assault on several injured policemen with their guns. More than a dozen automatic rifles fired deafening shots, and the muzzle flames flickered constantly. Bullets shattered the ground and furniture into flying fragments, after which the bandits turned around and entered the police station.
"What a formidable firepower!" Yu Fei said lightly, his handgun was not enough to deal with the bandits, the era of single-handedly showing off heroism had passed, and military officers should use their brains to defeat the enemy, not their muscles. In the past, when he was a mercenary, Yu Fei might have rushed forward to seize weapons and engage in close combat with the enemy, but after attending two years of reserve officer school, he learned tactics, learning to defeat the enemy with tactics.
The military police truck stopped at a distance from the police station, and after two squads of military police got off, they immediately set up two M-240 machine guns and M-249 machine guns to blockade the entire street. Other military police carrying rifles walked forward with their M-16A2 rifles at the ready, equipped with grenade launchers but without sophisticated aiming devices, not as well-equipped as the SWAT team. Another group of military police carried MP-5s as scouts, with two machine gunners following behind the riflemen as they approached the bandits' truck.
"Sir, we have arrived and found a burnt-out truck and two large trucks at the entrance of the police station. Please instruct." The squad leader reported through the walkie-talkie, holding an M-16 rifle with a loaded bullet, while the other two squad leaders covered their ears with their hands to listen carefully for orders.
"The big truck is the bandit's, we two are in the restaurant, just now they had a shootout with the gangsters, all of them have AKs and shotguns. To avoid close combat, use rocket propelled grenades to destroy their vehicles, block the streets with firepower, if they want to enter other rooms on the street, they will escape from the back door. I request you to establish a defensive line 200 meters away from the truck, their marksmanship is poor, believe in your equipment, start now, we will cooperate with you inside and outside, these more than a hundred gangsters are not allowed to let one go." Yu Fei took over the walkie-talkie and issued combat orders. He knew that the police should be able to hold the back door of the police station, the gangster's only way out was the front door, from which they could get onto the street, smash open any house on the street and escape through the back door. Therefore, blocking the streets was very important. If they wanted to rush into the street and then enter a room, the garrison would have to launch a pursuit, but one platoon of soldiers was not enough to pursue more than 100 people, and frontal interception was also difficult.
"Blow up the trucks, burning trucks can easily block our firepower, we must let them rush to the door and drag the trucks away." Wen Yong felt that two large trucks were too much trouble, so he added a command in time. He finished speaking and looked at Yu Fei.
"Carry out the order of the platoon leader." Yu Fei felt that he was not as smart as him, perhaps it was the result of the military school not emphasizing urban counter-terrorism operations. The exploded car could indeed block the street, but if the terrorists wanted to hide between two trucks, it would be difficult to kill them. The new order was too difficult for the provost sergeants, who had to pull away the large truck, clear the street and engage in combat. One sergeant told the soldier driving the truck, "Prepare to back up, we're going to use a steel rope to pull that car away."
The monitor finished speaking and took out the steel rope from the truck, tied it to the tail hook of the truck, and got on the truck himself. He also called the two machine gunners onto the truck, planning to slowly approach and quickly tie up the truck. This was a dangerous action.
The two military police trucks slowly backed away, and the outlaws guarding the perimeter immediately realized that someone was trying to surround them. More than 20 outlaws jumped out to protect their vehicle, as the big truck was a valuable asset that could completely destroy any police patrol cars that tried to intercept them. If they lost the truck, they would have to escape on foot through the enemy's position, which would be a desperate fight.
Although the outlaws were only educated at the primary and secondary school level, they quickly understood what the military police wanted to do. They rapidly organized their firepower and shot at the military police trucks. The military police had all been soldiers for just one or two years and had never fought in a battle before. Today was their chance to use their skills, and they used all their strength to fight against the outlaws.
Four machine gunners were not ordinary people, but were selected from the ranks after rigorous testing. Each of the two machine gunners in every squad must be experts in handling machine guns to unleash their power. On the truck, the two machine gunners who were lying down, one holding an M-240 and the other an M-249, one shooting left and the other right, would immediately fire a short burst at anyone who dared to stick out their head with a gun to shoot at the police. More than a dozen thugs attempted to take out the machine gunners on the truck, but the machine gunners' fingers remained pressed on the trigger, swinging the gun back and forth, the direction of the muzzle not being a straight line, but a fan-shaped area, which was their firepower lockdown zone.
