Chapter 383: Chapter 184: A Dramatic Turn of Events (Part 2)

The captain of the third special police team recognized the suspect’s identity.

At this moment, the armed police command captain had already started gathering several snipers and observers within the column to form a sniper team and find suitable sniper positions.

Meanwhile, Zhang Wenjun observed the situation of the criminals, contemplating carefully.

A moment later, he pressed his tactical headset, "Everyone listen, the command center has set the plan in motion. The armed police division leads, forming an assault group with Special Police 3 team. Special Police 4 team will coordinate with the remaining personnel to form an outer circle capture group, waiting for the National Security Special Service negotiators to negotiate with the main perpetrator. If negotiations fail, our task is to cover the assault group’s entry and prevent the suspects from escaping. Understood?"

"Understood."

Gao Bo and others responded, then whispered to Gu Ji, "Sigh, I didn’t expect that we wouldn’t be on the front lines for this operation, losing the chance for distinction. I thought I could earn a second-class merit to show my grandpa!"

"It’s normal; there are only so many personnel on-site. Of course, it’s mainly the armed police and special police assault teams!"

Gu Ji’s words were somewhat somber. Although he liked honors, the primary motivation was that frontline capture could provide an opportunity to encounter Sun Hengfei and observe some secrets.

This could help him command the game character to rescue Jian Na’s mother, and maybe even find the weaknesses of Yijuan Association and Liangben.

Faced with Li Youhua’s insults, Zeng Dan was indifferent and continued word by word:

"Li Youhua, have you forgotten your younger brother in the mental hospital? If you keep resisting, who will care for him in the future? Pang Guomin and Chen Hong have already surrendered and confessed to perform meritorious deeds. The opportunity is right in front of you. It’s up to you to choose!"

There’s no denying that National Security’s psychological tactics are impressive.

Understanding and mastering the psychological activities of the targets in a capture battle is crucial for victory.

It’s important to know that there are three conventional police capture tactical plans:

First, the negotiation group conducts a psychological assault on the criminals. If ineffective, the second plan is executed—the assault team breaks in. If due to hostages, terrain, or the enemy’s fierce resistance, it’s still not possible, the final plan must be used. At this point, the negotiation team should meet as many of the criminals’ conditions as possible, luring them to show themselves, providing the sniper team with a good shooting environment to eliminate the criminals.

A psychological assault is the first battle. If executed well, it might end the conflict without a shot fired. Even if it fails, it can influence, provoke, and disgust the criminals’ morale.

As expected.

The brother in the mental hospital seemed to be Li Youhua’s weak spot. Suddenly, he was silent and not as arrogant as before.

"Assault group ready! Teams A and B, prepare to infiltrate from the rear left and rear right of the target!"

"Yes, Fei Zhong!"

While the negotiation group distracted the suspect’s attention, the captain of the third special police team quietly sent his advance personnel to infiltrate. Wu Kang glanced at Gu Ji and the others, perhaps because he was a newcomer, his team wasn’t selected for the assault group but remained with Gu Ji and the others on-site.

The three exchanged a glance, feeling a sense of shared misfortune.

At the rear, the National Security Special Service team, Chen Zhiyu handed over the freshly organized main perpetrator’s intelligence to Zeng Dan, taking the opportunity to glance at the infiltrating assault team, secretly worrying about Gu Ji’s safety.

Because the encirclement combat circle was really large, the command center didn’t connect the radios for National Security, armed police, and special police except for the captains. She only knew the command center ordered the formation of an assault group but didn’t know who was executing it.

"Damn! There’s a mine!"

"You freaking Dragon!"

"Open fire!!"

Bang—!

Dadadadadada!

Dadada!

Seeing the assault team had reached the infiltration point and the criminals still showed no intention of negotiation or surrender, the captain of Special Police 3, Fei Zhong, immediately gave the order. The moment the command was heard, the assault group and the capture group almost simultaneously opened fire. The crossfire net formed by dozens of Type 95 rifles shredded the jungle before them like a lawnmower, causing debris to fly everywhere. The muzzle’s fire flashes in the dark, resembling dozens of hunting golden pythons.

During the firing, Gu Ji listened carefully to the gunfire’s response in the forest.

Besides the initial bald eagle air rifle and Li Youhua’s domestic single-barrel shotgun, there were no homemade Type 64 pistols or Ruger Mini-14 rifles mentioned by Pang Guomin, could it be that...

"Zhang Zhong, only two suspects have shown themselves from start to finish, and they’ve been exposed too quickly since earlier. The police dog Lingxi almost chased them down immediately. I suspect these two are scapegoats! Sun Hengfei, Zhao Wenwu must have chosen another route long ago!"

"Mr. Fei! Mr. Fei! What’s the situation with the assault group!"

Zhang Wenjun pursed his lips and decisively pressed the walkie-talkie.

Fei Zhong quickly responded.

"So far, only two people have been found. The bulletproof shield vanguard is squeezing their survival space. Your capture group, follow my orders and be ready to tighten the encirclement!"

"Reporting to the command center, my team members believe the two main perpetrators of 10.17 are not here!"

"What?"

Once Zhang Wenjun reported to the command center, all captain-level radios could hear, causing Zeng Dan to widen her eyes instantly. This was her first time reacting in shock in a long time. She immediately threw the megaphone in her hand to Chen Zhiyu, "You take over the negotiation from here!"

Saying that, she quickly ran towards Zhang Wenjun’s location with Special Police team four, inquiring about Zhang Wenjun’s reasons as she ran.

After listening to his repetition of Gu Ji’s reasoning. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

Zeng Dan suddenly halted, hiding behind a bush, "Reporting to Mr. Wei, I think this aligns with our intelligence assessment of Sun Hengfei. He is inherently cruel, an orphan, and almost devoid of familial or friendly affections, making it very possible for him to abandon his subordinates. I request the deployment of two teams to assist in the continued pursuit!"

"Granted, you can choose freely from the idle armed police and public security in the on-site capture group!"

"Mr. Zhang, Mr. Fei, each of you draw a team to follow me!"

"Alright!"

Zhang Wenjun responded to Zeng Dan while pressing the internal channel, "Special Police 4 team, one group follow me, groups two and three stay to continue assisting the assault group with the capture!"

"Yes!"

Gao Bo exclaimed, his eyelid twitching, "Impressive, Gu Ji. A single remark changed the police tactical plan and personnel deployment, turning the situation around!"

"Man, caught a break by sticking with Gu Ji!"

"I actually knew from the start that there were only two criminals!"

"Stop being a backseat hero."

"Stay focused on the mission, no idle chatter!"

Finally, Zhang Wenjun sternly rebuked. Meanwhile, the assault team drawn by Fei Zhong happened to include Wu Kang’s unit. The two small teams, totaling 16 people, successfully retreated to the rear of the formation from the encirclement, even bringing along a police dog, "Lingxi."

"You stay here to assist with the capture, Chen Zhiyu, come with me."

"Okay, deputy leader!"

Zeng Dan was swift and efficient in her tasks. Seeing Gu Ji and Gao Bo, Chen Zhiyu felt a sense of relief, and the group quickly retreated outside the firefight in the dense forest, "Mr. Zhang, do you have any good ideas for tracking?"

"I think we should start from where Lingxi bit down on the target. That might be where the main perpetrator Sun Hengfei set up Li Youhua and his plan, as well as the location they dispersed."

Having once been a member of the Dragon and Tiger Assault Team, Zhang Wenjun quickly adapted based on Gu Ji’s proposed suspicions.

Zeng Dan nodded, "I thought the same, and considering Sun Hengfei’s familiarity with police capture plans, they would definitely avoid the directions of the central and right joint units. Command center, I request a drone to scout the northwest direction!"

"Mr. Shi, take two teams immediately and inform the people of Division 3 in the General Staff, head northwest to meet with us!"
