Chapter 120 Ward rounds!
After leaving the hotel, the Dongfeng Corps did not immediately set off for Tachileik, because before that, they needed a reasonable reason.
Especially the three people who need to enter Tachileik in person need reasonable reasons and identities.
In fact, there are many types of infiltration operations, and disguised infiltration is the most common and dramatic one.
In this kind of mission, combatants need to fake their identities, change their appearance, sneak into enemy lines in an appropriate way, and evacuate immediately after the mission is completed.
In large-scale wars, this kind of wearing enemy clothes often occurs. After entering the 21st century, the more famous examples of war, in addition to the SAS's "Harvest" operation, are various types of police plainclothes reconnaissance operations.
All such actions have one common characteristic, which is:
Be fully prepared before the war and make the combat process as short as possible.
Only in this way can we minimize possible flaws in the operation and achieve the mission objectives as perfectly as possible.
Therefore, Chen Chen’s strategy is the same.
Based on the actual situation of Tachilei and the background of the people in the group, he forged a perfect identity and found an absolutely reasonable motive.
This motive will not arouse anyone's imagination, but it provides them with an absolutely powerful reason to enter Tachileik and the most sensitive love hotel that can withstand scrutiny.
——
That is, buy people.
Tachileik is the true heart of the Golden Triangle and the place where human trafficking is most rampant in the entire world.
The rampant human trafficking has also led to the development of sex trade. It can be said that such trade exists in any hotel that you can see with the naked eye.
Such transactions will in turn further promote the development of human trafficking.
The spiral is rising, getting worse and worse, and there is no recovery.
Chen Chen despises this kind of business the most, because these people have crossed the bottom line of human nature.
They can obviously spend a little more money and get sufficient profits, but they are not even willing to pay the cost, and instead choose the purest and most extreme evil.
——
But it is precisely because of this environment that it provides the best cover for these unidentified outsiders.
Unlike other businesses, no one will ask about a trafficker’s identity and background. As long as you act like a trafficker, you are a trafficker.
The truth is actually very simple. To make arms, you must have the permission of a powerful force, and have sufficient force and background; to make drugs, you must be able to outsmart the drug king here; to do legitimate business, you must go through the formalities. Come up with permission.
As long as there is buying and selling, anyone can do it and everyone has a reason to do it.
Very ironic? But this is the most real situation.
Because it is really the most powerful necessity, and it is also the first way out that many desperate people can think of.
So the only question is how to act like one.
According to Chen Chen's assignment, Baigou, the veteran who is most familiar with the local situation, will play the role of an intermediary, Li Bang will play his client, and Chen Chen will play the role of a mercenary bodyguard.
The reason why they want to go to Tachileik is because they can't find suitable candidates elsewhere, so under Baigou's introduction, they plan to try their luck at "the largest market in northern Myanmar".
It took two days for several people to prepare forged identity documents, verify their confessions, become familiar with the background, and even learned some specialized slang and relevant knowledge about the "population market."
Everything was ready, and even during the cross-examination by the third party played by other team members, they did not reveal any flaws.
At this point, the trio basically met the conditions to enter Tachilei.
——
Of course, this level of identity may not be used at all.
It's possible that those responsible for monitoring have already relaxed their vigilance and given up on interrogation. As long as you simply go there for a trip, the matter will be taken care of.
But Chen Chen has always believed in the power of "careful planning". It is better to be prepared than not to be prepared.
So, two days after the mission was confirmed, the 10-man team of the Dongfeng Corps officially set off for Tachileik.
Paramount Marauder moved forward along the NH4 highway, and encountered several minor accidents along the way, such as being extorted and interrogated by Luka's military police, encountering a bad road section and being forced to take another route, and parking for a rest. Trapped by the villagers
Even just 50 kilometers away from Tachileik, they encountered a road robbery.
Well, I took three tattered 56s and blocked the road to grab the Paramount Predator.
Mainly because the Marauder without the weapon station is not scary enough.
The desperate civilians probably thought this was a luxury off-road vehicle. When the door opened and they saw the mercenaries sitting inside, holding heavy weapons, they were all stunned.
But overall, the journey was very smooth.
At around 4 pm on January 10, the Dongfeng Corps arrived at the scheduled evacuation point No. 1, Hengtong Zen Temple.
Of course, they did not enter the Zen temple, but simply used the Zen temple as a signpost and camped in the nearby mountains to avoid unnecessary contact with people as much as possible.
The conditions were a little bad, but these recruits were already used to fighting in the wild, so they didn't mind it.
With everything arranged, Chen and Chen entered the final preparation stage.
Bai Gou first took off his heavy body armor, put on a slightly fancy but old shirt, and put on sexy sunglasses.
Li Bang and Chen Chen didn't need to change their costumes, so they remained as they were.
The only one who carried a full set of weapons and equipment was Chen Chen - but he only wore a specially found police level two body armor, a Bayi bar and an M1911 pistol.
As for the other two, only Bai Gou brought an old and worn-out Black Star pistol.
Only this thing qualifies as a "low-class human trafficker".
Bai Gou weighed the gun, shook his head and said helplessly:
"Does this kind of thing deserve to be called a gun? I feel like I never used this kind of gun when I was the poorest."
"That's because you are using Western-style equipment. This thing is an imitation of TT-30 after all. It is very powerful and has strong penetrating power. Many people like it."
Chen Chen shook his head and answered, but after hearing his words, Bai Gou continued to refute without hesitation:
"That's Type 54 you're talking about. What is this? This is a Black Star copied from some junk handicraft workshop!"
"Look at how rough the handle is. I suspect they didn't polish it at all. They just used an angle grinder to grind it."
"It's good if this gun can be fired without exploding the chamber. It's really useless at all."
"Then what can I do? Can you transport weapons in?"
Chen Chen rolled his eyes, while Bai Gou sighed.
"Actually, it's not impossible. Just ask Jackal for help."
"Too sensitive - don't think of Chaisili as omnipotent. If you ask them for help, you might as well ask Wood Ghost for help."
"They do have a strong foundation here. Last time I heard he said they also had armed helicopters."
"But this is not a question of weapons at all. What we are pursuing is concealment. Even if you have one, you can't bring it with you."
Hearing this, Bai Gou could only nod helplessly, but then he asked again:
"Why not let Wood Ghost do this?"
"They don't want to do it. Their trade route is in southern Shan State and they don't want to take risks."
"Understood"
After a brief explanation, the three of them set off without saying any more words.
Tachileik is different from Monkha or even Mengbin. This is a very large city with complete functional areas, complete facilities and developed commerce. If you don’t look at the sinful transactions hidden within this city, It is no different from an ordinary Southeast Asian city.
Even on the roads, there are various types of public transportation.
Chen and Chen took a songthaew, which is common in Southeast Asia, into the city. There were more than a dozen people crammed into the small back compartment. Burmese, Thai, and Chinese were spoken in random directions. When someone came up to talk to them, Bai Gou just responded with a few words.
The distance of more than ten kilometers is not that far. After entering the city, the first thing you see are Chinese signboards everywhere and advertisements for various electronic products from the north.
This scene gave Chen Chen a strange feeling - it was different from the feeling of "being in a foreign land like home" when he was in Kokang and Mengka. Now he really has the feeling of traveling abroad and seeing everywhere. The impact of domestic elements.
The songthaew dropped everyone on the main road, and as soon as they got off, motorcycle drivers, casino dealers, macaroni sellers, and pimps all swarmed up to them. At this time, Chen Chen showed his ability as a " PSC" duty, and as soon as the guns in their hands were lit, everyone retreated knowingly.
In fact, Tachile does not ban guns, let alone long guns. However, due to the needs of urban management, most of the time, the attitude towards guns here is still quite vague.
The government does not encourage the possession of guns, and many shops and places do not allow guns. But if you do bring one, the most you can do is give a few reminders.
As a result, the three of them traveled freely on the road.
"Where do we go now?"
Bai Gou asked.
"Follow the normal procedure and find a place to rest - you discuss it with Gang Li. He is your client. What are you discussing with me, a bodyguard?"
Chen Chen's expression remained unchanged, he observed the surrounding environment vigilantly, and did what a mercenary should do faithfully.
In fact, he is no stranger to this job. There were many important personnel protection tasks in the four-nation joint operation back then, and he can be considered to have withstood the test of actual combat.
Although they may be a little less professional than professional protection personnel, at least they can't do things where important people have already been trolled twice and I am still in a daze.
Looking at Bai Gou's embarrassed expression, Chen Chen continued:
"Anyway, let's go eat first and get a feel for the situation."
"From our current location to the love hotel, we have to cross the Friendship Bridge. The identity documents made in Northern Shan State may not be easy to use, so we must be prepared to sneak across."
"It would be best if there is a smuggler, but if you can't find one, you have to do it yourself."
"Why is it so complicated? Wouldn't it be better to just ask the people from Mugui to help?"
As soon as Bai Gou said these words, Chen Chen rolled his eyes.
He finally discovered that although Bai Gou claimed to be a military man, his thinking was still pure mercenary thinking.
Probably because he was suppressed by Hu Kaicheng for too long and didn't have many opportunities to exercise, so when faced with this kind of problem, he would subconsciously think in terms of "it looks easy to use".
Of course, this is also related to the original situation of the Lion Corps of "lots of resources but not strong".
In fact, things like border crossing are extremely sensitive. If the other party is prepared, the port is a key point that will inevitably be watched.
At this time, if you go through the customs through the back door, who would you check if you don’t check?
Chen Chen explained the stakes to Bai Gou, and the latter suddenly realized it.
However, his words also gave Chen Chen a wake-up call.
Although intelligence preparations have been made in the early stage, paper intelligence is better than manual intelligence. If an unexpected situation does occur, it is best to ask Peng Xucheng for a secondary confirmation.
They have been rooted in Tachilei for many years and should have a better understanding of the situation here.
After a slight pause, Chen Chen continued:
"The key is to rent a car, find a hotel first after dinner, and then find a special car rental company to charter a car."
"Without a car, our mobility would be too poor and it would not be conducive to subsequent evacuation."
"no problem."
The white dog answered immediately.
After briefly communicating the plan, the three of them began to implement it according to the plan.
After eating a bowl of sour noodles with a similar taste to Yunnan on the roadside, the three of them found a fairly regular "Yawo Hotel" to check in. The front desk just checked their IDs casually, then helped them apply for room cards and put down their luggage. Afterwards, Li Bang stayed at the hotel, while Chen Chen and Bai Gou set out to rent a car.
All actions must be logical and consistent with the logic of their identity.
Only in this way can we avoid making those prying eyes suspicious as much as possible.
The process of renting a car was quite smooth. They chose a dilapidated Mitsubishi SUV. Although the interior was a bit poor, it was very powerful and met their needs.
After returning to the hotel, Chen Chen called Peng Xucheng, reported the license plate number, and asked him to smoothen the relationship and arrange the transit itinerary so that he could clear customs early the next morning.
Chen Chen carefully observed the surrounding environment and after confirming that no stalkers were found, he lay down on the bed with peace of mind.
"There shouldn't be any big problems tonight. After all, we are still in the territory of Southern Shan State."
"Although the incident of the 505th Brigade occurred in southern Shan State, the main point of conflict is still in Thailand, and a large amount of evidence is also accumulated there."
"So, the focus of their surveillance should be on the south bank of the Mae Sai River, in Chiang Rai Province."
"Let's have a good rest tonight and get ready early tomorrow morning."
However, before he could finish his sentence, there was a sudden knock on the door in the hotel room.
Chen Chen turned over and stood up from the bed, and his hand immediately touched the Bayi bar next to him.
Bai Gou also drew his pistol simultaneously, and Li Bang took the M1911 from Chen Chen's hand.
The three of them occupy three corners of the room and guard in a standard CQB defensive formation.
And the words that came from outside the door made his heart sink immediately.
"505th Brigade, ward rounds!"
