"These damn guys!"
Carrillo returned to his seat with a stinky face and vented his anger on the innocent Jeep tire. He kicked the wheel crazily for twenty times before he stopped.
"Is there no other way?"
"Yes, but it's of no use!"
"Why?"
"The command lies with the military, so you can't use it even if you have any means!"
"You tell me the solution first!"
"Use it until they lose their patience!"
"But they lose patience and will they kill the hostages soon?"
"Major, have you ever chased a girl who didn't love you?"
"No, my wife and I were childhood sweethearts..."
"It's like you are chasing a woman who doesn't love you. You try every means to win her favor, but she is unmoved. So, you are ready to give up, but just when you are about to give up, she suddenly I agree to have dinner with you, so what will you do?"
"Forgive her?"
"Yes, we can agree to their conditions first and make a show of it to make them relax their guard, and then make requests such as treating the hostages. As long as the other party still wants us to comply with the conditions, there is a high probability that they will agree. And when the time comes, Once we understand the situation inside, we can then bargain, for example, asking them to release some hostages, so that we can pretend to meet some of their demands, just like a tug-of-war, until they are overwhelmed, and then we can Let’s have a final decisive battle!”
"Is this also your company's training course?"
"Yes, it has been around for a long time. There is even so-called anti-hijacking training, but no one cares about it. After all, no one thinks that they will encounter such a thing in their life!"
"I suddenly want to go to class with you!"
"Then welcome, tell me your name, and I'll give you a 20% discount on your tuition!"
"Shit, only 20% off?"
"This is already a great deal, but our place is not open to cats and dogs!"
"Okay, I understand! By the way, Sergeant Major, if the military gives up the attack, can you help with the next thing?"
"You are kidding, Major. It is impossible for us to intervene in this situation. Neither your government nor my boss will nod!"
"But you have to try, right?"
Carrillo patted Plomri on the shoulder and said.
"I'll see if I can convince the minister!"
To everyone's surprise, the Minister of the Interior had no objection to Carrillo's proposal.
"Anyway, how bad can the situation be? The military is preparing to bring in artillery to bombard the Palace of Justice. Negotiating with the other party to release a few hostages, I think this is a good idea! But, I said no. !」
Although the Minister of the Interior is equally impatient, he is now considered a marginal person here. The ones who really hold the command are the army. It is simply impossible to get them to let go!
"Can't you think of a way? For example, go talk to the Minister of Defense, talk to the President, something like that!"
The Minister of the Interior looked at the hopeful eyes of his men and finally nodded.
"Okay, I'll find a way to talk to the president, but I can't guarantee the outcome!"
"Also, sir, do you have any acquaintances with the Intelligence Bureau?"
"What do you want to do?"
"I just want to make some preliminary preparations!"
"Make this call! Just say I asked you to go!"
The minister nodded, left Carrillo a phone number, got in his car and left the scene.
Carrillo immediately found a phone and called the number. Soon, the call was connected and a deep male voice rang.
"Hello?"
"Hello, I am Carrillo..., I have the authorization from the minister and I need to access the files on the 19th Guerrillas!"
"Hold on!"
The male voice hung up the phone after saying that, while Carrillo was at a loss where he was. He didn't know whether the other party wanted to call him or how to contact him. Until thirty minutes later, an inconspicuous car arrived. The car stopped on the side of the road, and then the door opened, and a tall and thin man wearing glasses said to Carrillo who was standing by the phone.
"boarding!"
After getting in the car, the man handed Carrillo a thick stack of information, which contained a lot of information about the members of the 19th Guerrillas, including their names, photos, dates of birth and other information.
Carrillo was overjoyed after getting the information. After saying thank you a few times to the tall and thin man, he got out of the car and rushed to meet Plomri.
"I got their information, what do I do next?"
"Find a way to find their family, relatives and friends, and then ask them to come to the scene!"
"Are we going to hold them hostage?"
"No, that's the most boring thing to do. Let their family and friends persuade the other party to put down their weapons, release the hostages, or just reminisce about old times!"
"Okay, okay, leave it to me!"
Carrillo immediately called his subordinates over, distributed the information to them, and asked them to find the names of the people they needed as quickly as possible. As for what to do after they find it, that is the next step. The top priority now is to see the actions of the Minister of the Interior .
After all, if the military is determined to use artillery and tanks to send all the guerrillas into the sky, then it will be useless for Carrillo to move the guerrillas' parents to the scene!
The lobbying by the Minister of the Interior was indeed very bad at the beginning. Neither the President nor the Minister of Defense wanted anything to happen. For them, the sooner this matter was resolved, the better!
"But in front of the media, once we attack and cause a large number of innocent casualties, there will be no hope of turning around in the future!"
The Minister of the Interior immediately began lobbying on key points. The President hoped to save his precarious reputation, and the Minister of Defense hoped that the military would not take the blame. To put it bluntly, it was a matter of interests.
"If the matter can be resolved peacefully, will there be hope in the polls soon? And even if we have to attack by force in the end, then we can tell the media that it is the guerrillas who are not cooperating and the military has done everything possible to save the situation. This is different. Can the military be less harshly criticized?
"Furthermore, if we succeed and rescue some of the hostages, even just a few, wouldn't this still be a huge achievement?"
"Mr. President, why can't you give it a try? Could the situation get any worse?"
"Okay, but what if something happens?"
"I am solely responsible!"
The Minister of the Interior said firmly.
"If something happens to me, I am willing to take the blame and resign and accept all the consequences!"
"Well, I'll give you one day! I hope you can bring me some good news!"
The president raised his hand and stopped the defense minister who wanted to speak.
