Looking at the beginning of the 20th century from the 21st century, international relations are chaotic and countries are barbaric.
But people in the early 20th century didn't think so.
Are we all civilized people? As long as we have not completely broken up, countries will maintain a superficial balance. No matter how dirty they are in private, they will maintain a friendly situation on the surface and build a harmonious society together.
The relationship between Lanfang and Britain is like this, the relationship between France and Britain is like this, and the relationship between Britain and the United States is also like this.
In fact, strictly speaking, there are no fundamental differences between these countries. Whether it is Lanfang or the United Kingdom, everything they do is to make their countries stronger and make their citizens live better. At this point, all
Countries are the same.
But when it comes to individuals, there are always differences.
After all, the total resources of society are only so small. If a certain country gets more, other countries will get less. If this tilt continues, the apparent balance will not be maintained.
The British have stated that Huang Fugui is not in their hands, so Lan Fang chose violent action.
Similarly, if McTavish and the others are discovered by the British, the fig leaf between Lanfang and the British will be torn off. Although it is not expected to reach the stage of war for a while, the deterioration of the relationship between them is
definitely.
So when the searchlight on the British gunboat shone in the direction of Litai Matheson, MacTavish felt really nervous.
Fortunately, this was probably just a routine inspection, and the British searchlights just glanced over and had no intention of stopping. This made MacTavish feel relieved.
Although the searchlight had already swept over, McTavish did not dare to be careless and stayed where he was. He waited until the searchlight swept over again five minutes later before McTavish began to climb up.
Climbing with bare hands may sound lofty and lofty, but in fact it is not the case at all. Anyone can do it as long as their physical fitness is good enough and they receive a little training.
In a building, unless it is done deliberately, there will always be protrusions that can be used. The outer eaves of window sills, balcony railings, and even the corners of water pipes can all become fulcrums that can be used.
When the building of Litai Matheson was built, it was obviously based on comfort, and little thought was given to defense issues, so there were quite a few fulcrums. McTavish was like a monkey, moving in and out.
Climbing up, there is almost no pause, and it seems even faster than climbing stairs.
When he arrived at the top of the building, McTavish secretly poked his head out and observed it first. After looking for an opportunity, he climbed up gently and came behind the British patrolling on the top of the building and strangled him.
At the same time, he stabbed the knife in along the gap between the third rib and the fourth rib.
There really was no reaction. The British man just struggled for a moment and then became motionless. MacTavish had to free his hand to grab the rifle that the British man had dropped, so as not to make any noise and alert others.
.
McTavish was practicing pure killing. Once he made his move, there would be no room left. Between the third and fourth ribs was the heart. If the knife penetrated from here, no one would be spared.
In order to deceive others, McTavish ordered a commando soldier to put on the clothes of the dead British man, take the Lee Enfield and stay on the roof of the building, as if touching it, and continue to stand guard, and then walked along the roof of the building.
The small door slid down quietly.
Foreign banks are only things that rich people can afford, and the interior decoration is naturally perfect. Although it is the beginning of the 20th century and electricity is not that abundant, it is obvious that for Litai Foreign Bank, there is no shortage of power.
The problem was, even though it was past nine o'clock and it was break time, the lights in the corridor were still on. The lights were so bright that MacTavish felt a little regretful.
It's too early to come here, I shouldn't come back until two or three in the morning.
These days, although movies have been born, because they are not yet popular, there is no means of entertainment. Basically, by one o'clock in the evening, if there are no accidents, people have already gone to bed.
People are at their most alert at this time.
Two or three o'clock in the morning is the time when the body's biological clock is the most tired. If people have fallen asleep, then it is also the time when they are the most sleepy. It is of course possible to launch an attack at that time, but at the same time, two or three o'clock in the morning is also when the guards are the most nervous.
At that time, it was the most difficult to infiltrate.
Many things can be concluded through simple reverse reasoning. Just like the current arrangement of guards in Lanfang, they basically have a single sentry during the day, but they will become double sentries at night.
The double sentry on the surface will also be added with a concealed sentry, just to prevent someone from taking the opportunity to make a sneak attack.
It was already here, there was no time to regret it, and there was no turning back now. McTavish peeked his head into the corridor, then took out a black pipe from his pocket and screwed it on the pistol.
Yes, what McTavish screwed was the silencer.
Not only McTavish, but almost all the commando members were screwing silencers on their pistols, which made Zhang Hanqing and his men dumbfounded.
The silencer is the latest product produced by the Lanfang Military Factory. Even ordinary Lanfang soldiers are not equipped with it, let alone Zhang Hanqing. Speaking of which, this is the first time that a silencer has been used in actual combat.
Zhang Hanqing still understood the battlefield discipline. Although his heart felt itchy as if he had been scratched by a cat, he could still resist asking questions.
McTavish had no intention of explaining. He screwed on the muffler and pushed the door open into the corridor without any hesitation.
Infiltration is actually espionage. All commando members are not protected by international conventions. If they are discovered, they will basically die.
Since it was so cruel, MacTavish would not hold back. He would rather die for his Taoist friends than for his poor Taoists, and a bloody storm began immediately.
Starting from the fourth floor, McTavish and the others prepared to search room by room until they found Huang Fugui.
Although the information provided by Richard confirmed that Huang Fugui was here, it did not confirm the specifics of Huang Fugui. From the first moment they entered Litai Yang Company, McTavish and the others cut off support. All they could do was to
By McTavish themselves.
In fact, all military targets, whether they are prepared or not, are basically tight on the outside and loose on the inside. There are also many people who want to be loose on the outside and tight on the inside, but it is not easy. You can only be a thief for a thousand days, but there is no such thing as a thousand days.
The principle of preventing thieves is that if the security personnel's nerves are always in a state of tension, they may collapse before the enemy launches an attack.
The same is true for Litai Foreign Company. On the surface, it seems that there are more than a dozen security personnel, both covert and covert. But when you enter the interior of Litai Foreign Company, you really have no precautions. There is not even a soul in the corridor, and it is so quiet that it is heart-stopping.
There are still human figures, there are portraits hanging in the corridor, either smiling and making people feel like spring breeze, or serious and meticulous, no matter whether they are smiling or serious, as long as you look at those portraits, those portraits are all staring with big eyes and bright eyes.
You, to be honest, it's a bit scary after watching it for a long time.
At this point, stop scaring yourself. MacTavish turned a blind eye and walked forward along the carpeted corridor.
It's great to have money. Even the corridors are covered with hand-woven carpets from Turkey. You don't have to cover up when walking on them. It's silent. MacTavish walked so briskly, as if he was going to see Su Mo.
The feeling is almost the same.
This is a structure similar to a tube building. The staircase is in the middle of the floor. There are a dozen rooms evenly distributed on both sides, five or six on each side.
The commando team led by McTavish still had a lot of manpower. There were five or six rooms, and each room could be assigned two people to take care of it. Seeing that the manpower had been allocated, McTavish made a gesture, and then talked to McTavish
The commando member of the same group unscrewed the lock of the door next to him.
Breaking into a room is really a technical task. In fact, until World War II, there was no effective way to break into a room.
During the Battle of Stalingrad in World War II, Zhukov still summed up a combat method of breaking into the room, but that method is not applicable in the current situation.
Zhukov's one is only suitable for use on the battlefield. It means breaking in with pure violence and not sparing any weapons. It makes as much noise as demolition. It is really not suitable for use in special operations.
McTavish's method is more tactful. In fact, they don't shoot if they can, and try to use a knife to solve the problem. But if the break-in is discovered, you are still welcome. Use the gun if you need to. Anyway, it has been added.
Even with the silencer installed, there wasn't much noise.
Just after another commando member unscrewed the door, and the door just opened a gap for people to enter and exit, McTavish immediately walked in with a pistol, and his cooperation was perfect.
This Duanqiang is also knowledgeable.
It is not the posture of stretching the arms as far as possible in 21st century film and television works, but placing the pistol between the chest and abdomen, with the arms close to the body, forming a stable triangle with the body.
This posture is actually the most convenient for movement. Basically, wherever the gunman sees, the muzzle of the gun can be pointed. In this way, people in the room will not see the gun first, then an arm, and finally the gunman's stupidity.
plot.
In fact, life or death is a matter of a split second when you break into a room. One of the favorite games played by cowboys in the American West is to see who can take less time from drawing a gun to completing the shot. Of course, the British have no shortage of good players. An excellent shooter can go from drawing a gun to completing the shot.
The firing takes about 0.2 to 0.3 seconds, almost in the blink of an eye, life or death has been decided.
At this time, of course, you must use all possible means to kill the opponent without leaving any room.
