Chapter 250: Extreme Cold, 6,400 words combined chapter. Please recommend.
Since 911, the U.S. judiciary has entered a new round of power expansion. Especially with the establishment of the Department of Homeland Security, the power of the U.S. judiciary has become unprecedentedly powerful. In 2003, the Secret Service was merged into the Department of Homeland Security.
After joining the Ministry, their powers have also been expanded, and they no longer only protect the president and his family members.
Presidential candidates and vice-presidential candidates determined within 120 days before the election, children and grandchildren of current and former presidents under the age of 16, visiting foreign heads of state and government and their spouses, individuals designated by presidential decree and homeland security
National special security incidents designated by the Ministry of Defense have also begun to enter the protection scope of the Secret Service.
It just so happened that the presidential candidate named Benjamin Asher also entered the protection scope of the Secret Service.
It's just a bit of a coincidence that just before entering the '120 days' protection period, this uneasy presidential candidate and his family suddenly decided to go on a last family trip before the election. A family trip before the presidential election... This
Benjamin Asher's heart is not ordinary.
Generally speaking, presidential candidates during this period should begin to enter an intensive election preparation period. He needs to build momentum for his election, attract more sponsorships, and appear on more TV programs to gain popularity.
But this presidential candidate actually chose to travel before entering the period of protection from the Secret Service...
This caught the Secret Service off guard. They had already begun formulating a protection plan for Benjamin Asher, but traveling was definitely not part of the Secret Service's plan.
However, considering that Benjamin Asher’s travel plan is not long-term.
There was only one week, and the protection period was about to begin, so the Secret Service could only send agents secretly for covert protection.
But this goes against the Secret Service's position.
Before the election, what they said can be regarded as a biased position. This is a very serious political incident. According to the regulations of the US government, various government departments should not hold positions regarding the election.
In particular, this situation must not occur in the judicial department.
Of course, regulations are regulations, but in the United States, like all countries in the world, very few people secretly take the regulations seriously. And Benjamin Asher was already far ahead in the polls before the election. Therefore, the Secret Service provided the information in advance
Certain preferential treatment is understandable.
Benjamin Asher is different from previous presidential candidates. He represents a new trend in the political arena. He is young, British, and humorous, which is very in line with the preferences of young people.
His political platform is also very attractive. He advocates "change", emphasizing ending the Iraq war, achieving energy self-sufficiency, stopping tax cuts, and universal medical insurance. Economically, he promises to strengthen financial supervision and limit its scale and high-risk transactions.
Prevent new financial risks. At the same time, he also emphasized increasing jobs and reducing unemployment. He also promised to achieve party unity, rebuild alliances internationally, and restore U.S. leadership.
This is full of temptations for the current American people. After the beginning of the Iraq War, the U.S. government came under great pressure from public opinion at home and abroad, and the domestic anti-war atmosphere was very strong. At the same time, due to the impact of the subprime mortgage crisis, the American people's attitude towards Wall Street
The situation has deteriorated sharply, with constant calls for strengthening supervision and control of Wall Street, and even the Occupy Wall Street movement broke out.
All in all, the emergence of Benjamin Asher perfectly catered to public opinion, so when he planned to run for the election, the polls continued to rise. You must know that the general election has not officially started yet, and the Democratic Party only announced it three days ago.
Benjamin Asher is the Democratic candidate.
Of course, this is all just talk. In fact, there is a very complex game of interests. Benjamin Asher was elected by various interest groups. This is a rule of the game that has been passed down in American politics for hundreds of years.
Originally, Benjamin Asher was supposed to transfer in Chile and fly directly to the United States yesterday. Unfortunately, something went wrong at this point in time.
Benjamin Asher took a cruise this time, but the cruise ship did not arrive at the port as scheduled yesterday!
Now the Secret Service is panicking. The presidential candidate with the best chance of being elected is missing! If this spreads out, the Secret Service will at least bear most of the responsibility. Although strictly speaking, it is not their responsibility, but it is really
When that time comes, no one else will care about it, someone has to take the blame.
So the Secret Service needs to sort this out and get Benjamin Asher back.
But the problem is that the Secret Service has no law enforcement power overseas, so they can only turn to other forces. So the scene just happened. In fact, the Secret Service can turn to the CIA, but since the CIA was created, too many forces have been involved.
So even though the CIA is a whole, the twists and turns inside are actually much more complicated than imagined. If the Secret Service really seeks help from the CIA, it might complicate the situation.
So the Secret Service can only turn to the military's special response forces.
Although the military is also divided into many factions, relatively speaking, it is much purer than the CIA. Moreover, the military rarely interferes in elections, and they are less involved in such political games. Anyway, no matter which president comes to power, the military will
None of the interests can be shaken.
…
"So...why would this guy go traveling at a time like this?" Kai didn't care much about other things. He was more curious about what Benjamin Asher was thinking.
Lynn Jobs was silent for a moment, and then said helplessly: "His marriage has been having some problems recently, so he plans to travel together to ease the relationship between the two..."
Now Kai was speechless. This politician was a bit of a showman. At such a moment, he actually went on a trip to save his marriage. It seemed that he and his wife were in true love.
"So, can you tell me where they are?"
…
Almost two hours later, Kai and his team set off again, which made other people in the team feel very unhappy. As the strongest team in the entire special response force, they have always been on missions very frequently, but no matter how frequent they are,
It’s not to the point where I have to start again just after returning home.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Faq... my vacation has been ruined again! When was our last vacation? Six months ago?" Portman, the sniper of the team, was sitting on the plane.
While arranging his weapons, he complained loudly that the transport plane made a lot of noise, so he had to speak loudly.
"Hey! Man, how did you plan to spend your vacation?" Heavy fireman Duke asked Portman loudly while smearing black paint on his face. Duke is a typical American soldier, white,
Protestant, square face, square body, middle class family.
"I will go to San Juan, then lock myself in a hotel, drink a lot of wine, and have sex with pretty boys!" Portman said with a disgusting smile on his lewd face.
Yes, Portman is a pervert. He is bisexual, and has never been shy about it, and is even proud of it, so he is said to be a pervert. Discrimination against homosexuality is very serious in the military, and Porter
That Man can still live so well under such circumstances is enough to illustrate his own strength.
"Faker, you are such a pervert!" Destroyer, who is also a heavy fireman, sneered at Portman. He is the kind of person who discriminates against homosexuals. Destroyer and Duke are from the same hometown, and they are from Washington, DC. The relationship between the two
Very good, we have been in the same army since joining the army.
"Tell me, what exactly are we going to do on this mission? Why do people from the Secret Service come to us?"
This is Frederick, the commando in the team. He is a strong man of Russian descent. He is tall, two meters tall, and extremely strong. His neck and nose are always red as if he is drunk. But
In fact, this guy doesn't look like a Russian at all. He doesn't like drinking, but he likes sweets. He was the teammate Kai personally selected when he first led the team alone.
Although Meatball looks ferocious, he actually has a very gentle temper.
"Maybe let us assassinate a certain dignitary? You know, that's what Nixon once planned to do!" This is Xiaogui, a medic and communications officer. Xiaogui is a new member. One of the original team members retired. Xiaogui is
The new recruit they just added. This guy has the same baby face as his nickname. If this guy doesn't join the army, he will definitely become a nerd. He is proficient in computers, likes anime and action figures, and
He is a senior conspiracy theory enthusiast.
"Stop dreaming! Politicians will not let us go if they do such a thing. They have their own lackeys! We soldiers are not qualified to serve the big men." This is the center of another commando of the team.
Shi'Saji.
Sage and Kai's 'body' provider Adam are from the same hometown, from Minnesota, and they even live in the same city, but Adam has never met him before. Kai was in the same team with him when he first entered the special response force.
It was also at that time that the two people knew that each other was a 'fellow countryman'.
Sage is not a white man. He is also a descendant of immigrants. He is a Samoan. Samoan men are generally tall and strong, so some people call them "the strongest nation in the world." Although Sage is of mixed race, he can inherit perfectly.
He has the advantages of being a Samoan, with a typical refrigerator-like figure, dark skin, and very Hispanic features.
Unlike his appearance, Saji is not a rude and reckless man. On the contrary, his command level is very high. His command sequence is behind Kai, and he is considered the deputy captain.
A group of people were chatting happily, but one person seemed out of place.
That is another sniper in the team, Goat. Goat is of German descent, and just like the Germans in my impression, he is rigorous, calm, and quiet. At the same time, he is also a fanatical Catholic and is the most withdrawn one in the team.
He doesn't like to communicate with anyone except Kai. And other people in the team don't like him very much, but at work, everyone trusts him. He is the kind of person who will definitely complete the order as long as it is given.
.
He is the favorite person of any commander. He will only complete the task and never ask why. At this moment, this guy is reading an almost torn Bible.
"Okay! Everyone, now I will introduce the mission situation! So, everyone, shut up!" Kai's appearance interrupted everyone's chat.
Kai's command style is no nonsense. He rarely talks dirty words with other people in the team, but everyone trusts him extremely, because everyone in the team has been beaten by Kai at least three or four times. This is
Everyone likes an officer who can ensure the safety of soldiers.
"Yes Sir!" Everyone stood up and took a break.
This is the habit that Kai brought from the people's army. He is serious and lively. He must be serious when he should be serious.
Kai nodded and then clicked on his personal computer.
"Mission goal: bring back the target person safely. Target person: Benjamin Asher, the Democratic presidential candidate!" At this point, Kai couldn't help but complain. "I hope none of you will vote for him."
"Secondary goal: bring back Margaret Asher, wife of Benjamin Asher, and their son Connor Asher. The requirement is to ensure the safety of innocent people while ensuring the safety of the target. Mission location:
The luxury cruise ship "Ago". Now that you're done, what else do you still don't understand?"
"Report!" Goat raised his hand.
"explain!"
"What do you mean by trying to keep other people safe?"
"That cruise ship is full of rich ladies with rich wealth and jewels... So if the situation permits, we need to ensure the safety of those rich gentlemen. But if the situation does not allow it... you know, our mission will not happen
On any official document. Do you understand what I mean?"
What Kai means is that if the situation does not allow it, they only need to bring back Benjamin Asher, and the rest... screw them. Anyway, they will not keep files on this mission, and even if someone complains, they will not be able to find him.
to people.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Understood!"
"Report!" This time it was Portman. This guy usually doesn't care much about missions, but this time he took the initiative to ask questions. "The Yago is the world's number one luxury cruise ship that just made its maiden voyage?"
Kai rolled his eyes and said angrily: "Yes, this time I can fulfill your wish for a vacation!"
The salary of the special response force is very generous. Taking their team as an example, each of them has a monthly salary of about 6,246 US dollars, but each mission has a subsidy ranging from about 2,000 to 8,000 thousand. For a team like theirs, the monthly salary is about 6,246 US dollars.
, you can earn about 20,000 to 30,000 U.S. dollars, plus some random subsidies and benefits, you can earn more than 300,000 U.S. dollars in a year, and the U.S. military enjoys special tax treatment, which is really high-tech!
Unfortunately, since it is a front-line combat unit, especially Kai's team, it is basically always in high-intensity combat. Therefore, in order to relieve pressure, everyone in the team spends money lavishly. In addition, Americans do not like the habit of saving. These people
In fact, they are all paupers. It is still a bit difficult to enjoy the world's most luxurious cruise ship.
No wonder Portman was so excited when he heard about the Yago. After all, under normal circumstances, he probably wouldn't have much chance to enjoy that kind of treatment.
"Okay, do you still have any questions?"
"Report!" This time it was Saji. "Then who is our enemy? What kind of threats do we need to deal with?"
This is a key point that Kai didn't mention at all in the mission description, so Saji was curious.
"Anyone who hinders our mission is an enemy!"
The reason why Kai didn't say anything was because he didn't know. So far, no one knows what happened on the cruise ship. Because all communications with the cruise ship were cut off more than ten hours ago.
!
Maybe they were on a rescue mission this time, or maybe it was a combat mission.
…
About twelve hours later, the plane arrived off the coast of Chile. There was a storm blowing on the sea at this time. Few pilots dared to continue flying in this kind of weather, but most of the pilots assigned to the special response force were the kind of talented and courageous pilots.
Big, and a little bit crazy at the same time. The transport plane was so bumpy that it was about to fall apart, but the pilot continued to move towards the target sea area.
"Damn! When can we change a group of pilots? Hal is a madman! I hate flying on his plane. This idiot will turn the plane into a roller coaster every time!" Portman struggled to fix his body while going crazy.
Complain.
Hal Jordan, the guy who has the same surname as the God of Basketball, is a genius just like Jordan. He is a genius in airplanes, so there is no airplane he can’t fly. But the only problem is that he likes excitement and pursues it, even if
Even if it is the most ordinary flight, he can find excitement. If there is no excitement, he will create it himself.
Kai was very puzzled that the US military did not kick such a magical person away, but kept him in the special response force.
Of course, complaints are complaints, Hal's technology is still worthy of trust. No matter how dangerous the environment is, this guy can get them to safety.
"Hello! Ladies, move your noble butts! You are here!"
"Fake Squid! Hal! Fake Squid!" The Destroyer covered his head that hit the cabin wall and cursed Hal loudly.
"Hahaha, thank you for the compliment!" Unfortunately, Hal, a lunatic, has become accustomed to this kind of 'praise'.
…
Hal is indeed a genius. Under such weather conditions, they still sent them to the sea near the cruise ship. The wind on the sea near the cruise ship was much lighter. They could safely parachute and land near the cruise ship. As for whether they could get on
For cruise ships, it all depends on your appearance.
Of course, Kai has always been the European Emperor. Even if he is unlucky, he can still cheat. Although Kai now has only recovered less than one-tenth of his full strength (strength: 5; agility: 4; spirit: 4), but some low-level
The spell is ready to use, so cheating is no problem.
Kai landed gently on the top deck of the cruise ship, and after retracting his parachute, he contacted his team members through the 'AWIS Army Global Military Command and Control/Information System'.
"Everyone report their location! Repeat! Report their location!"
"Codenamed Destroyer, on the west side of the third deck!"
"Code name: Goat. I'm on the south side of the cruise ship. I'll board the ship in about ten minutes."
"Codename Portman...Fuck, there seems to be something in the sea. Could it be a shark?"
"Portman, before your little brother is bitten off, I don't want to hear your nonsense!" Kai was really helpless towards the pervert Portman, whose attention was always in some strange places.
.
"Okay, I'm at twelve o'clock, and I'll board the boat with him." Portman was also helpless towards Kai, because Kai was the only one who could subdue him. Even if he is a pervert, he still has a grateful heart, Kai
He has been rescued the most times in the team.
"Code name Duke, I'm on the stern deck."
"Code name Saji, I'm on the sea at the stern of the ship. I see Duke. I will join him."
"Price Meatball, I am on the west side of the sea, with the equipment. I am very close to the cruise ship, and I will be able to board the ship soon." Meatball is with the equipment they need, which includes an 11-meter RHIB rigid
Inflatable boats, as well as a sufficient base of weapons, ammunition and explosives. These were finally air-dropped by transport aircraft.
Kai waited for a while, because he didn't hear the kid's voice, and he was waiting for the kid's report.
But after a minute, he still didn't hear the kid's voice.
"Kid! Report your location! Kid! Repeat! Report your location!"
Still haven't gotten a reply from the kid.
"Attention all units! The imp is missing! The imp is missing..." One team member lost contact, which may indicate trouble, so Kai must alert other team members and tell them the specific location of the search for the imp.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Don’t wait until he finishes speaking.
The little ghost's voice came out.
"Wait a minute! Wait a minute! I need a moment!"
Kai frowned.
"Kid? What on earth are you doing? Report your location!"
"Sir, I saw the kid...he was hung up on the cruise ship's radio transmitter, and he is now trying to find a way to get off." Meatball reported at this time.
There was silence in the communication. Then there was laughter.
"Farke! Farke! I was just careless! I'll be down soon! Soon!"
Kai was also dumbfounded. He knew that newcomers liked to make jokes, but the kid seemed to be born with a talent for this. Counting this time, he and his team had carried out three missions in total, but he made a joke every three times.
The last time he accidentally fell into the enemy's septic tank, he almost sickened himself to death. The last time he fought in the jungle, he somehow provoked a swarm of wild bees. Fortunately, the swarm of wild bees was not very poisonous, otherwise
It's really a joke.
"Meatball, get that idiot down. Then we'll meet where you are."
"Yes, sir!" Meatball replied with a smile.
"Fake, I've become a joke again." This is the little devil's lament.
"The others gathered at the location of the meat ball and inspected the situation on the ship!"
"Yes, sir!"
"Um...Sir, I seem to have noticed something going on here." As soon as Kai finished speaking, Portman said in the communication.
"What happened?" Portman was still swimming in the sea at this moment? How could he possibly see the situation?
"I saw a... yacht next to the cruise ship?"
…
Kai walked along the top deck toward the west deck of the cruise ship, but the strange thing was that he didn't meet anyone along the way. He walked for ten minutes and passed three entertainment halls, but except for a mess, there was no one there.
See anyone!
"...I didn't see anyone."
"Me too."
"Fake...Did we board a ghost ship?"
Soon a group of people gathered on the west deck. After gathering, they immediately began to reorganize their equipment. During the skydiving, they could not bring all the equipment with them. After organizing the equipment, a group of people followed the preparations.
The good cruise blueprint heads toward the concourse of the cruise ship.
The two commandos advance alternately as arrows, followed by the fire team, and finally the commander and two snipers.
They passed through the lifeboat deck and entered the interior of the cruise ship.
They didn't see anyone until they entered the cruise ship.
It was an armed man with heavy firepower. There was no obvious sign. He was probably not a soldier. The equipment they wore was very professional, including a micro-communicator, a Kevlar body armor, and a Chinese-made three-shot submachine gun.
Especially the three-shot submachine gun, which is rare in the world. But it is very powerful. It has a six-barreled rotating barrel, an insane ammunition load, an automatic cooling system, and is waterproof, dustproof, and shockproof. It can be regarded as a semi-heavy machine gun.
Since China has very strict arms control, heavy weapons of this type rarely leak out. And this armed man is a Westerner. Now it is basically certain that these people are not good people.
Kai made a tactical gesture, signaling Saji and Meatball to deal with him.
After seeing Kai's gesture, the group of people immediately dispersed and prepared an ambush on the armed man's path.
