712 The Power of the People

When Monica and Baleleka returned to their place, the parents were very anxious, but the Moscow hotel maintained order well.

Monica thought for a moment, then turned to Baleleka and said: "Balayika, find someone to ask who has studied in this middle school before. We need to know all the information near the gymnasium. Is there any secret passage there? Where is it?"

The walls are the thinnest, so it’s best to find someone to draw a topographic map inside..."

Baleleka agreed and went to make arrangements, and the parents were immediately organized. They were all old residents of the town. Many fathers and sons went to this middle school for two generations. However, after the middle school was renovated, it was obvious that their children had better information.

precise.

Soon, a dozen young men who looked like delinquents were gathered together. They all graduated from here just the year before last. They were all former sports students and often hung out in the gymnasium.

The delinquent young people did not expect that one day they would be useful after being scolded by their father every day, and they were very enthusiastic. They did not have guns like their parents and grandparents, but they also wanted to do their best, not to mention that they were among the hostages inside.

younger siblings or neighbor’s children.

After a discussion among a dozen delinquent youths, a very unprofessional structural diagram was quickly drawn. Although it was not professional, it was very detailed. Several of their fathers also participated, and they were construction workers in the town.

, they participated in the renovation of the gymnasium. The structural diagram was improved again, and soon, a final version of the stadium structural diagram appeared in front of everyone.

Monica held this simple diagram with very detailed annotations. There are two sewers in the gymnasium that can be used, one in the utility room and one in the hostage room. The walls are very thick, which is in line with the Russian style.

But it would be difficult to blow up the wall without hurting the hostages inside. Attacking from the ceiling is a good way, but how to get up is another problem.

Monica showed this sketch to Sakov, who was pleasantly surprised. Sakov never expected that a seemingly flawless situation would soon find so many loopholes with the help of the locals.

"Thank you very much. I still need to discuss it with my attack team, but the information you provided is very useful. In addition, you are right. All soldiers and civilians wrap their arms with white cloth strips to identify friend or foe..."

Monica returned and informed the news about the white cloth strips. Soon, everyone's arms were wrapped with white cloth strips. Everyone wanted to help, but no one wanted to be accidentally killed by one of their own people. It would be too useless to die like that.

.

Soon, the Russian national anthem was played from the school's public loudspeaker. Owen and Bayev were a little excited, which meant that their information was successfully passed on.

Outside, Sakov was still discussing the action plan with the commander of Alpha, but the residents of Beslan were so excited by the national anthem that they wanted to rush forward to fight against the robbers and rescue their children. Some people had already

He started to call Ula, and Baleleka tried his best to calm him down.

The playing of the national anthem made the stadium tense for a time. The Chechens thought that the Russians were about to launch a force attack. Irving could even see cold sweat breaking out on the bomber's forehead, and several people were saying something loudly.

Owen looked at the parent, who immediately said: "They said that the Russians are going to launch a general offensive. If they can't hold on, they will die together..."

Fortunately, neither the military nor the town residents acted excessively. There was a false alarm in the gymnasium, and it was obvious that they also breathed a sigh of relief.

The guy who seemed to be the leader looked at his watch: "Half an hour is up, Torboev, grab someone..."

He said these words in Russian, and the crowd immediately became commotion. Then amidst shouting and struggling, a male parent was caught and pushed to the door.

"The time is up and you still haven't responded. Maybe you think we are just talking. I said that the Chechens do what they say."

Bang bang bang~~~

A string of bullets swept past, and the hostage fell in a pool of blood.

The crowd that had just been calmed became excited again. Some angry crowds fired at the stadium. The bullets hit the thick walls and made a distinctive muffled sound. The Chechens hid inside the stadium.

Balaleka and Moscow Hotels struggled to stop the people who were about to rush forward again, but many people were already dissatisfied. They were dissatisfied that the authorities had not taken any effective measures for so long.

The death of the hostage once again put pressure on Sakov, and the action plan was quickly determined. Both blasting the wall and breaking through the roof were abandoned. The former could not guarantee the safety of the hostages, while the latter could easily alert the enemy.

The sewer was the only feasible way to attack. At this moment, the president called.

"Your Excellency the President..."

"How is it going?"

"It's very bad. Just now, the other party executed another hostage. We have already determined the attack plan. One of the hostages inside passed on a lot of useful information. After discussing with the combat team, we decided to use the sewer as the entry point.

.”

"There is no need to show mercy to terrorists, but we must try our best to ensure the safety of the hostages."

"I will, Mr. President."

"I'm on my way there. Please let me know if anything happens. You can make your own decision in case of emergency."

After receiving the president's approval, the attack team prepared to enter the combat position. The two attack teams found Monica, and then Baleleka arranged for the young men to lead the way. They found a sewer entrance, and the two teams of Alpha and Signal Flag entered the sewer respectively.

.

Snipers from various commanding heights have locked onto the three firepower points provided by Owen, and at least two snipers at each firepower point have locked onto each firepower point at the same time.

The ones coming this time are Alpha and Signal Flag, which are affiliated to the Caucasus Military District. These two special forces are very famous. Every member of the army is an elite, and accurate marksmanship is just a basic quality.

Sakov was full of confidence. He sent someone to notify Monica that they were ready to take action. Monica remembered her past experience and specially informed Sakov that it was best to block the communication. If possible, even the media

Filming is not allowed. The situation is complicated now, and there is no guarantee that there are no hidden Chechens outside. If they notify the Chechens inside, it will be troublesome.

Monica's advice was timely. Similar incidents had occurred in Germany. Such omissions would never be allowed to happen in Russia. Sakov quickly issued an order, "Booby traps, find someone to use a signal jammer to block the routine."

All signal channels except for our own, and the media is strictly prohibited from filming..."

These things may be difficult to do in the United States, but in Russia, it is just an order.

The Alpha soldier named Booby took the order and left.

At this time, there were more residents in the town around the school than soldiers, and they were all armed. What Monica was most afraid of was that once the military launched an attack, these people would follow.

Fighting against terrorism is different from fighting a war. Success cannot be achieved with just a large number of people and bravery. Monica has never doubted the courage of these people, but they are likely to have a counterproductive effect in the subsequent hostage rescue operation.

For this reason, Monica and Baleleka discussed and then organized these militias into several parts.
