"01, 01, they’ve boarded the vehicles."
"Report the situation."
"There are three vehicles in total, two SUVs and one Iveco. Three victims are on the Iveco, and two more have boarded the SUVs. Zhou Man is in Huasheng’s car, the white SUV heading up the mountain."
"Received. Quickly regroup."
"Understood."
The sudden incident caught the task force off guard.
But they quickly formulated a new plan based on the latest information.
It’s Li Xiang’s first ti leading the task force, and he’s not very familiar with the capabilities of his team mbers. It’s quite challenging to arrest so many people in such a complex environnt.
Moreover, they have five hostages in their hands. At a critical mont, these five people are their hostages.
If any one of them were injured during the arrest operation, it would be his responsibility, and he couldn’t afford not to take it seriously.
Even though he is highly skilled, facing so many criminals, he is helpless and cannot cover all aspects.
"Captain Li, what should we do? They seem to be moving quickly, likely planning to cross the border tonight."
"Yes, I initially planned to arrest them tonight once they fell asleep, but plans can’t keep up with changes."
"We must capture them before they cross the border."
"Looks like we need to request reinforcents."
The task force alone is insufficient to complete such an arrest mission. If they waited until the suspects fell asleep, it might have worked, but at this mont, for the hostages’ safety, Li Xiang couldn’t take that risk.
So he communicated with Director Song imdiately.
In such cross-provincial cooperation, the details of the case must be reported to the provincial departnt.
-----------------
Provincial Departnt Criminal Investigation Bureau Office.
At this mont, the phone in the office rang.
"This is Fan Yonglin, what’s the matter?
What?
They’re about to cross the border?
Is the situation so urgent?
How much ti is left?
I’ll arrange it imdiately. Who is the commanding officer on the front line?
Li Xiang?
Alright, I understand."
Upon receiving the urgent task, Fan Yonglin imdiately contacted the Yunnan Provincial Public Security Departnt to establish a joint command center between the two provinces.
-----------------
At this ti, Li Xiang was unaware that his phone call had stirred a storm, causing a commotion in the provincial departnt.
He had not yet realized the seriousness of the issue.
The safety of five hostages was enough to elevate the handling of the case at the provincial level.
Ring ring~
Li Xiang’s phone rang. He picked it up and saw it was from Director Song, so he told everyone, "Director Song is calling, it looks like support is on the way."
"Hello, Director Song, when will the reinforcents arrive?"
"I’ve already reported it to the provincial departnt. They are also paying great attention to this case. Director Fan has coordinated with the Yunnan Provincial Public Security Departnt to establish a joint command center between the two provinces to direct this arrest operation. I’ve given them your number, and from now on, you need to follow Director Fan’s command."
"Such a big operation?" Li Xiang was a bit taken aback.
This case had suddenly beco a matter for the provincial departnt.
"It’s an international cri, and we can’t handle it ourselves. You need to cooperate well."
"Understood."
After Li Xiang hung up, everyone imdiately looked over: "What did Director Song say?"
"The provincial departnt has taken over the case and established a joint command center with Yunnan Province. The call will co through soon."
"Wow, a joint command center between two provinces? That’s quite serious."
Amidst everyone’s astonishnt, Li Xiang’s phone rang again, this ti from an unknown number. After Director Song’s briefing, he naturally knew that this was probably a call from the provincial departnt.
"Hello, this is Li Xiang."
"Hello, Team Leader Li. I am Fan Yonglin, the director of the Provincial Public Security Departnt’s Investigation Bureau. I understand your situation. Please provide your command channel so we can connect you to the joint command center for unified command and dispatching."
"Yes, Director Fan, our channel is: 074256."
"Good, you are connected. What is the current situation?"
"The suspects are currently driving three vehicles: a black SUV, a white SUV, and a white Iveco. The license plate numbers are... They are currently traveling southbound on G** highway. We don’t know the specific highway exit yet. There are five hostages on board, and the status of weapons is unknown. We are following them now."
Li Xiang shared the information they had gathered with the joint command center.
At this mont, Su Jiayi said excitedly, "They’re exiting the highway at Qingshui Valley."
Zhou Man, who was in Huasheng’s car, had just overheard Huasheng ntion during a phone call that they would be exiting at Qingshui Valley.
Li Xiang imdiately relayed this intelligence to Director Fan to arrange accordingly.
"The target’s current position is only half an hour away from Qingshui Valley, and ti is too tight."
Su Jiayi glanced at the navigation map. At their current speed, they would exit the highway in half an hour, leaving them little ti to act.
"Team Leader Li, we have urgently dispatched a special police squad to support you. I now appoint you as the front-line commander. You can command this force to carry out the arrest operation, and they will contact you shortly."
The joint command center, being far away, couldn’t handle the imdiate changes on the ground. Li Xiang naturally erged as the front-line commander to execute the arrest.
"Yes, I guarantee to complete the task."
Li Xiang was quite pleased with this outco. He was most afraid of the higher-ups giving blind commands. Since they weren’t on the scene, the intelligence they received was reported in. On one hand, intelligence could be delayed, and on the other hand, the situation could change. It was impractical for the joint command center thousands of miles away to try and command remotely.
Fortunately, this result was satisfactory. Li Xiang beca the front-line commander, allowing more flexibility in choosing the arrest timing.
Sure enough, before long, a communication was patched into the command channel.
"Can you hear ? I’m Gu Jianguo, the captain of Canglin City’s special police squad. Can you hear ?"
"I can hear you, Captain Gu. Thank you for your hard work."
"It’s no trouble, we’re all here to serve the people. I will follow your command for the upcoming operation."
"Alright, I’ll first share the target vehicle information with you. Lead your squad to Qingshui Valley to stand by and prepare for combat."
"Understood."
After instructing the special police, Li Xiang imdiately studied the terrain of Qingshui Valley and its main roads to predict their movent and find the best place to make an arrest.
Quickly, he formulated an arrest plan and communicated it imdiately.
"Sun Zhidong, once you exit the highway, accelerate and rear-end that white SUV to force it to stop. Then, play the scoundrel to draw all the strongn out of the car, preventing any harm to the hostages during the arrest.
Everyone else should drive slowly and wait for my order. Once the special police are in position, rush forward. **Rember, our primary task is to ensure the hostages’ safety. Capturing the suspects is the job of our special police comrades.**
If anything unexpected happens, report it imdiately. Understood?"
"Understood."
After passing down the arrest plan, the special police squad rushed to the arrest location, and Sun Zhidong felt a bit nervous since his role in this arrest operation was crucial. His task was to deliberately cause an accident and trick so of the strong suspects out of their cars, reducing the risk to the hostages.
Half an hour later, the target vehicles smoothly exited the highway.
"Captain Gu, have you arrived?"
Li Xiang imdiately inquired whether the special police had arrived, worried they might not have made it on ti.
"We’ll be at the designated location in ten minutes."
Hearing they had five minutes left, Li Xiang breathed a sigh of relief, knowing there was enough ti.
So he said to Sun Zhidong and the others, "Proceed according to the plan. If ti runs short, engage the suspects and delay them."
"Understood."
