Longcheng Municipal Administration Building, inside the command center headquarters.
The commander of the garrison held the microphone in his right hand, frowned and asked: "Is there still a chance to organize a second rescue?"
The special operations captain replied without hesitation: "Commander, the other side is already in shock. If we protect the hostages, we won't be able to organize another attack. They can do it by breaking in, but after entering, they will have enough time to kill all the hostages."
.”
"You're riding on a horse!" The commander of the garrison hung up the phone and cursed through gritted teeth: "After this incident, I will definitely wipe out the entire army!"
At the conference table, Liming Sheng picked up the cigarette case with slightly trembling hands, lowered his head and lit one. He knew very well that the chance of armed rescue was gone, and the hostages could no longer die.
If he negotiates with the gangsters in the usual way and waits for the matter to end, then Liming Sheng will be the first person responsible for this incident. He has just come to power not long ago. If he has such a resume in his political career, then his official career will be
The road has come to an end.
The political environment in District 1 is special. The most important stage for the top Chinese political officials is Dragon City. If he loses here, he will not even have the chance to find a place to hibernate for a while, because it is difficult for Chinese officials to stay in the city.
Districts, states, and cities occupy key positions.
What should I do? Should I fight it out, or should I just keep safe first and then step down afterwards?
Liming Sheng fell into brief hesitation and entanglement.
At this moment, Secretary-General Lu, who had just been released, rushed to the command center by car. After entering the door, he immediately shouted: "Mayor!"
Liming Sheng slowly raised his head and looked at the other party with a somewhat gloomy look, feeling a certain amount of regret in his heart. If Secretary-General Lu had not proposed to the Supervisory Committee to attack the Chi army along the Sinalo coast, this would not have happened now.
thing.
"Just come back." Liming Sheng nodded towards Secretary-General Lu, his attitude was far from enthusiastic.
Secretary-General Lu looked at everyone and said immediately: "I heard Director Lin tell me about the rescue plan. I personally feel that Su Tianyu, who superficially agreed to cooperate with our actions, may have a private connection with the Chi Army."
When the commander of the garrison heard this, he frowned and asked: "On what basis do you base your judgment?"
"When he was taken away by the people from the Chi Army, I was on the first floor where the hostages were held." Secretary-General Lu frowned and said, "The other party took him up alone for interviews, and the people from the Chi Army were very kind to him.
Su Tianyu's boss, Yu Mingyuan, was called in at least twice, which is very abnormal."
"This doesn't mean that Su Tianyu is suspected of betraying the political assistant?"
"The relationship between the Yu family and the garrison is very close, and the relationship between the garrison and the Chi army is also very ambiguous. It is not unusual for them to be able to communicate and talk to each other." Secretary-General Lu insisted: "They
It would be weird to pretend that you don’t know anyone!”
The commander of the garrison looked at Secretary-General Lu, frowned and replied: "I have been managing the garrison for so long, and I have never heard of any unit that dares to have an affair with the bandits! Do you have evidence? If you do, I will immediately order the arrest and confront them on the spot.
!”
As soon as these words came out, Secretary-General Lu realized that he had lost his words in a hurry, but he quickly went back to make up for it: "Commander, I don't mean that all members of the garrison have connections with the bandit army, but
There is a small group of corrupt elements who are not firm in their stance, and they may have under-the-table contacts. The current situation is very critical, and we must ensure that no external forces can affect the rescue plan."
The commander of the garrison glanced at him and said nothing.
"The garrison has contributed a lot to the military defense of Dragon City. Our government department recognizes some of the sacrifices made by the troops." Secretary-General Lu added again, then turned to look at Liming Sheng: "Mayor, I personally suggest
Those who control the Su family, if Su Tianyu and Yu Mingyuan have private contact with each other, then we can use this to contain the latter, and even coerce Su Tianyu to tell a lot of inside information; if not, this is also a safe defensive strategy.
"
Liming Sheng took a deep look at Secretary-General Lu and replied in a hoarse voice: "Permission to control Su Tianyu's family members. They are not clean. When necessary, force can be used to control them."
"Yes!" Secretary-General Lu nodded immediately.
Liming Sheng stood up slowly, turned to look at the crowd and said, "I have decided to agree to the ruler's request. I will personally act as a hostage, enter the reception building, and negotiate with the gangsters face to face."
When everyone heard the sound, they immediately came over.
"Lao Li, you can't do this. You are a government official and you cannot put yourself at risk!"
"Lao Li, you must be careful in this matter. If you are kidnapped, we will be restrained in our next actions."
"Mayor Li, we have to be careful...!" Secretary-General Lu also advised.
Liming Sheng looked at the other party and asked expressionlessly: "Then are you willing to go back and act as a hostage to negotiate with the ruler army?"
Secretary-General Lu was choked up and speechless.
"What else should we be cautious about?! We can't do a forced armed rescue; it will take a while, and the other party will kill people. If we continue like this, the incident will only get worse!" Liming Sheng frowned and said: "
I am the mayor, and I have the responsibility to ensure the safety of the people of Dragon City and public officials. I am willing to go in!"
When everyone heard this, they stopped trying to persuade him.
"According to the other party's request, inform the media." Liming Sheng pointed to his secretary and said: "I don't bring any equipment, I just go in alone."
…
Twenty minutes later.
A number of media outlets in the First District and Longcheng City broadcast a piece of news at the same time.
"Just about two hours ago, a group of gangsters calling themselves the Sinaloa Army hijacked the Dragon City Supervisory Committee and took more than 300 hostages. The other party demanded ransom and the release of those who were involved in planning terrorist activities in the past few days.
Nearly a hundred members of the Chi army were arrested on the coast of Sinalo in Japan... The two sides have negotiated for several rounds and have reached a basic consensus. Longcheng City Mayor Liming Sheng decided to use himself as a hostage to protect the people and public officials.
The safety of personnel. More information will be reported later..."
Outside the Supervisory Committee compound, Liming Sheng got out of the car and walked towards the compound under the escort of the special operations team.
In the surrounding area, the media, which had already gone crazy, were shooting at Liming Sheng with long guns and short cannons.
Liming Sheng is a courageous person at critical moments. He also has ambitions and prospects for his political career, so he decided to take the risk and give it a try.
…
Inside the Supervisory Board Building.
Su Tianyu lay on the ground with sweat on his forehead, and Zhu Bajie bandaged the wound himself.
"You are quite ruthless!" Zhu Bajie looked at Su Tianyu in surprise and said, "Can you think of such a move?"
"They will still suspect that I leaked the news. Being shot can only reduce their suspicion." Su Tianyu looked at the other party and said, "I have one more request."
"you say."
"If the mayor comes in..." Su Tianyu communicated with the other party.
