Chapter 4: Operation "Battle Village" 3. Tiger (I)
Ganlingxi is an important town adjacent to the north and south of Country Y. Brigadier General Sinar, the special forces commander of the M Army in Ganlingxi, is a typical young officer and one of the key players in the special operations against Y. He has a team of experts in the strategic strongholds of Country R, all of whom are retired officers who fought in China. With the advice of experts from Country R, he built the area around Ganlingxi to be impregnable and praised as a model area for public security. The whole Ganlingxi is prosperous and has become a tourist destination full of luxury.
On this day, Sinar welcomed the Speaker's son Mike, his high school classmate.
Last night, someone attacked the strategic village of Shuijing, and even caused some casualties. However, this did not attract his attention. He knew that there was a guerrilla group of the Y Army in this area, and he had always given the task of eliminating them to Colonel Oden of the commando. Colonel Oden had reported his achievements to him several times.
Now that he was very angry about the losses he had suffered, he simply gave the R country strategic expert group that worked so hard for him to Oden, and turned around and went to the white oil beach on the seaside resort.
He thought this was his most important task. He had a good start and had already achieved military success in Country Y. He now had to find a political backer to have a chance to enter the General Staff. The arrival of his classmate gave him a chance to grasp at straws.
What made him happiest was that Mike didn't bring his girlfriend. The upper class of Country M didn't have so many scruples. So, he prepared a game that was definitely appetizing for his old classmate.
Mike laughed out loud, " Weird guy, don't lie to me, I'm not a country bumpkin!"
Mike wrapped himself in layers of white sand that looked like flowing oil, and his hairy body sparkled in the sun.
Sina immediately shook his head and chuckled: "If I can't satisfy you, will you still place your hopes on those old men living in the headquarters? Oh, or the old generals?"
Mike burst into laughter, and suddenly stood up, shaking his body, raising white sand all over the sky, like a wild beast in full rage, and shouted loudly: "Dear Sinar, I know you won't let me down!"
Sinar lay down on the beach chair and clapped his hands three times gracefully.
As if a gust of wind passed by, the stilted thatched houses on the beach were broken open one by one. In each thatched house, a woman was curled up. Each woman had skin as delicate as silk and shiny. Or a group of girls who had never had sex.
The old classmate shook his head: "Do you think I'm some kind of ancient king?"
Sinar smiled: "You try to walk towards them, right!"
Suddenly, a colonel rushed in, stood at attention and said, "Urgent document, General." He grabbed it and glanced at it.
"Hey, what's wrong with you?" the old classmate shouted loudly.
"I'm afraid I need to take care of that."
The old classmate felt quite disappointed and said "huh" to himself, then turned around and left.
Sinar shrugged and said to his adjutant, "Follow him." Then he said loudly, "Mike, even if the sky falls tonight, I will play with you!"
"Whatever you want!" Old classmate Mike walked away.
Sinar strode to the beach, climbed into the car, and said as he put on his clothes: "Speak!"
"According to the intelligence report from Mangchang, Tiger who was fighting with Colonel Wei Ke in Mangchang suddenly disappeared. The headquarters initially judged that Tiger had come to the west of Ganling." The colonel reported.
Sinar put on his clothes: "He was the one who arrested Colonel Bume and caused that idiot Kaiyue to lose his job?"
"Yes, the information we have is very simple. We only know that it was a guerrilla expert sent by the North Y headquarters with a special guerrilla team of several hundred people."
"Bei Y also knows special operations?! " Sinar put on his hat, "What do you think, Chief of Staff?" "According to the report from Mangchang, this person is elusive, always appears in unexpected places and takes action at unexpected times. Tactics that are not in any textbooks."
"He sneaked into my Ganlingxi today?" Sinnar turned around and stared at the colonel.
"You're right. Headquarters is considering Mike's safety. They're afraid that Tiger will get the information and sneak in, causing another Lieutenant Finn incident." The colonel spoke in his usual clear and unhurried tone.
Sinar sneered, "Is this Mangchang?" He sat up straight, "Immediately dispatch the first squad of the headquarters' special emergency response team, and keep following Mike. Without my order, anyone who approaches will be killed without mercy! The plainclothes officers of the second squad will be dispersed throughout the city, and each of them will be given command over the South Y police. Equip the third squad with a helicopter team, and be on standby for emergency response at any time."
The colonel straightened his back in the car and said, "Yes!"
Sinar slowly closed his eyes, and suddenly opened them nervously: "Call back all the experts who followed the Oden commando team and report to the headquarters immediately."
The colonel answered again, "Yes!"
The car was galloping on the street of Ganling West like a wild horse, and in a moment, it had driven into the special forces headquarters.
Tiger happened to see this scene through the telescope. He was hiding behind thick curtains. This was the top floor of a hotel called "Haji". Following him were Li Ying, Gong Yangzi, and Li Yuanxin. Suddenly, there was a rapid knock on the door.
Gong Yangzi whispered, "It's the sound of high heels hitting the ground."
The boss came in. She was a woman in her thirties. Her husband was a mid-level officer in Southern Y, who was sent by the Y Army to infiltrate the M Army. Her father was a wealthy businessman in Ganlingxi. She was the secretary of the Y Army's Ganlingxi underground party. However, her identity was only known to Li Ying and Lao Hu.
After she came in, she said softly, "Excuse me, ladies and gentlemen, according to the order just issued by the police station, all passengers entering Ganling West must go to the lobby to be questioned by the police. I know you are the big bosses, so I came to invite you personally."
Tiger asked calmly, "The police are upstairs?"
"No, they're in the lobby. Of course, if you don't go down long enough, they'll come up," she said, still softly.
Tiger nodded and strode out the door. When he was near the window, the female boss winked at Li Ying. Suddenly, Li Ying quickly hit her with a palm, making a very light sound. Gong Yangzi and Li Yuanxin saw that the boss was knocked down, and together with Tiger, they opened the window without looking back and jumped onto the top of the tree outside the window. Gong Yangzi whipped his long whip and slid up the tree in an instant. Li Yuanxin pounced on the tree like a bird. Li Ying closed the window and then jumped up the tree like a swallow.
I heard the sirens sounding upstairs, and the four people had already climbed down the tree. Fortunately, there were many trees in Country Y.
The four of them calmly dodged through the woods and saw the police running wildly on the street. The jeep with the M flag flying on it rushed over like a wild horse. In a moment, the police had surrounded the hotel and no one could get out. People on the street immediately hid in various shops.
The police stayed around for most of the day before leaving. However, some spies were left on the street. Tiger and his companions did not go out again until someone else walked on the street. They walked straight to a restaurant.
This is a restaurant that serves Western food. Although all the decorations have a strong Y-style feel, the food sold inside is authentic Western food. Therefore, most of the people sitting inside are M-people and wealthy Y-people.
Because it was morning, there were not many people dining inside. The hotel's proprietress was a middle-aged lady who still had a lot of charm. When she saw Tiger and the others, she came over in person. Obviously, she was a shrewd business person. She knew that people from Country Y who came to eat Western food were rich people. Of course, she wanted to take advantage of this slow business to attract more business.
When the waiter saw that the boss had come personally, he quickly led them to a seat by the window where they could see the sea.
"Let me introduce myself. My name is A Mei, and I'm the boss here. I'm honored to have you here."
Tiger, who was wearing sunglasses, smiled faintly: "Haha, A Mei, it sounds like the name of a girlfriend of mine before."
She laughed and bent down: "I will go to the kitchen myself and make the most authentic Western food for you."
Tiger glanced at the restaurant. There were twelve M people in the restaurant. His attention was focused on one of them who had just stopped a military jeep in front of them.
Hu leaned back in his chair, slightly closed his eyes, and observed the M countryman.
His beard and hair were neatly trimmed and he was dressed casually.
Tiger smiled slightly: This is an officer, and he should be an officer working in the headquarters office.
He suddenly put his mouth close to Li Ying's ear affectionately, but the content of his whisper was: "It should be simple, and pay the bill first."
He glared at Gong Yangzi who was making faces, and Gong Yangzi immediately regained his composure. He stared at the officer, and Gong Yangzi nodded.
The officer was indeed a gentleman, he ate very elegantly and slowly. Tiger also ate very elegantly and slowly, almost in step with his rhythm. Li Yuanxin couldn't do it, he got food all over his hands and face.
Gong Yangzi twisted a big red bump on Li Yuanxin's leg, then he stopped and wiped his face and hands carefully. Li Ying only ate a little and drank water leisurely. Gong Yangzi quietly stuffed the chicken leg into his arms. Li Yuanxin could only stare blankly.
The moment the officer wiped his mouth, the tiger stood up.
When the boss saw them standing up, he looked over with a pair of bright eyes: "Not to your liking, boss?"
Tiger raised his head high, shook his head, and walked over: "No, I have a big business to discuss soon, A Mei, we will see each other again!"
The officer was obviously a regular customer. He left his money, ignored everyone, and walked out of the store at a leisurely pace. Tiger also smiled and walked out at a leisurely pace. Li Ying, like all wives, took her husband's hand and walked out the door. Gong Yangzi and Li Yuanxin, like all bodyguards and followers , hurriedly strode in front of them to clear the way.
The officer's car was parked in the shade of a tree. Under the scorching sun of Country Y, this kind of parking lot is always covered by the shade of trees. The waiter stood there respectfully, waiting for the officer to drive in. The officer still didn't look at him, but just flicked out a tip . Just as the waiter took the tip, suddenly, Tiger moved and leaned against him, as if it was an intimate hug, holding him into the shade of the tree.
The officer still felt the wind, so he quickly turned around. But this time it was the tiger that stuck to him: "Don't move, I'm the tiger!" The palm of the tiger fiercely stabbed the officer's waist. The officer felt that his waist was broken, and the strength to fight back disappeared immediately, and he collapsed in the tiger's arms.
Li Ying and the others jumped into the car quickly, and Tiger pressed the officer onto the front seat of the car.
Gong Yangzi smiled and tied a pulled grenade around the officer's waist.
Tiger started the car and whispered in the ear of the M country officer: "I will try to drive the car more steadily. I hope you will cooperate. Otherwise, if the grenade explodes and you die, I am afraid I will also be in trouble."
Sinar was furious. Tigers appeared in twelve villages. They killed at least one of their own soldiers from South Y or M. They even blew up the watchtowers with mortars or rocket launchers. The shooting was extremely accurate, almost all of them hit the target with one shot. This was obviously not the level that the local guerrillas could achieve.
What irritated him most was that when the helicopter arrived, the men disappeared without a trace. This was a calculated and precise attack that only a tiger could pull off.
Just as he was regretting transferring the R country combat expert back from the Oden Commando, he received even more shocking news: Lieutenant Colonel Smith from the headquarters had disappeared in the Western restaurant.
He was very angry and shouted, "Catch the owner and waitress of the western restaurant!"
After he finished shouting, he sneered: "The tiger is coming!"
