Chapter 360 Civil strife

Chapter 360 Civil strife

After the seaplane problem was solved, Chen Chen started purchasing plans for other equipment.

The first is stronger body armor. He handed this matter directly to Peng Xucheng and asked him to communicate with the factory in the north to purchase customized versions of higher strength body armor.

The second was mortars. After this hit, the Eastern Corps and MPRI were really fired up. They even took out RPGs, so Chen Chen no longer needed to be polite to them.

Even if you can't use any heavy artillery, you still need some 60-meter and 120-meter guns.

This matter must be left to Xu You. He has been engaged in the arms smuggling business for many years. He cannot be said to be too familiar with the smuggling routes in various sea areas of Southeast Asia, but he has heard about it.

Combining the information provided by Xiaoyu and part of the "protection", he should also open up transportation channels from Pubei or other areas to Sulawesi, and transport in what the Dongfeng Corps needs.

The first batch should be treated as a way to explore the way, and get some 60 troops first.

If this road can really be opened smoothly, then other things can start to be transported in.

But of course, the most important thing for transporting goods to Sulawesi is not "export" but "import". But as it happens, the seaport town of Kendari is still under the control of Gunawan, and he can definitely use some other conditions to make an exchange of interests with him.

At present, although the interests of both parties are completely consistent, their positions are basically the same. The basis for cooperation between the two parties is at least much deeper than that of Laos and the United States.

Therefore, Chen Chen is not too worried about this "route". He is even thinking about it, or else he can directly cooperate with Gunawan and put on the skin directly.

The Indonesian police are responsible for importing the equipment and are responsible for using it themselves.

In this way, Dongfeng Group does not need to bear any risks in terms of legal principles and compliance, and its business can be large.

However, the problem with this plan is that we must be deeply bound to Indonesia.

But Indonesia is wavering on certain positions. Its biggest backer refuses to nod. It is best not to do some things that should not be done.

Then let it go for a while. After all, one bite won't make you fat, so take your time.

After everything was arranged, Chen Chen's mentality became calmer.

And at this time, another piece of good news arrived.

The first batch of six supporting people finally arrived in Sulawesi. Chen Chen asked Lin He to pick them up, while he and Shi Dakai waited in Qingshan Park with airs.

Now that the group has grown bigger, many things need to be formalized. Corporal Tixian's tricks can be played, but not excessively.

Once it goes too far and the heat gets too high, the rules will break down.

But of course, after the others arrived, Chen Chen received them immediately.

Sitting in the office of the Dongfeng Corps, six people lined up, standing in a standard military posture.

This temperament alone is completely different from that of the militiamen brought out by civilians.

Chen Chen is very satisfied with their performance - what he wants is not a scary soldier with a bad temper but a ruthless man who can fight hard and is willing to work hard for money after becoming a mercenary. .

These six people all had this kind of temperament. Chen Chen made a brief introduction to them. After getting to know each other, he and Shi Dakai took them to visit the park, assign tasks, and also distribute equipment.

".This is my office. If you have any emergencies that you need to report in the future, you can come directly to me here."

"But if there is nothing special, just go to this person, Shi Dakai."

"He is your direct commander, or you can call him Captain Shi."

"He is responsible for the frontline command of the battlefield and is also the commander of the battlefield."

"clear!"

The six people answered in unison. Chen Chen nodded and introduced while continuing to move forward:

"This is our camp - or it should be called a dormitory. The location is relatively spacious at the moment. You can allocate rooms and beds by yourself."

"You have also undergone basic training when we were in Mengka, and you have a basic understanding of our sentry system. All subsequent arrangements will be carried out in accordance with the original standards."

"But we are in a war zone now. I ask everyone to maintain combat status at all times, keep their guns and equipment close to their bodies. When a battle breaks out, everyone must be in place within one minute. Can it be done?"

"can do it!"

The six people answered again, and Chen Chen nodded again.

After going around in a circle, the newcomers already had a basic understanding of the current situation and subsequent combat missions. Chen Shenmai continued to talk and took them directly to the warehouse to let them choose the equipment they needed.

This hand shocked them all.

After all, although they had used the latest firearms training in Mengka, even using SCAR, what they saw in front of them still gave them a huge impact.

The most advanced guns, the most advanced night vision devices, the most advanced body armor, even their radios are the most advanced!

"This is .XM109??"

Among the six, a relatively young mercenary named Liu Siyuan asked.

"Yes, XM109. Can you use it?"

"I know how to use it. I've fought QLZ-87 before, and it's fine for me, Captain. Can I use this?"

Liu Siyuan's eyes were full of expectation, but Chen Chen shook his head and replied:

"You only choose the personal equipment that you carry with you, such as guns, sights, equipment, etc. These special equipment must be determined and used according to the specific combat situation and do not belong to individuals."

"I understand, I understand!"

Liu Siyuan nodded quickly and then explained:

"What I mean is, captain, if there are similar combat missions in the future, you can give priority to assigning me this position. I played really well!"

"no problem."

Chen Chen answered immediately.

In fact, the skill of long-range shooting with sniper grenades is currently only possessed by himself and Shi Dakai in the entire Dongfeng Corps. Shi Dakai obviously has more important responsibilities. Now that someone has offered to operate the sniper grenade, he will naturally not refuse. of.

After receiving his reply, Liu Siyuan's expression was extremely excited - probably he was indeed a howitzer when he was in the army, and he also had feelings for this thing.

Compared to him, other people's "points of interest" are more ordinary.

After a round of selection, everyone got the equipment they needed. The difference was mainly in the selection of primary and secondary weapons and sight selection.

Overall, there are two snipers, two machine gunners, and two blasters among the six people. The configuration is very balanced. At the same time, they can also undertake the task of close assault combat.

Coupled with the remaining seven combat-effective personnel of the Dongfeng Corps, the number of combatants in the Indonesian unit came to 13.

Although compared to MPRI and the number of JD elements, it is still not worth mentioning, but at least it is enough to deal with small-scale conflicts.

The next batch of personnel arrived a week later, totaling 12 people.

By that time, the size of the Eastern Corps will be further expanded, and the integrity of equipment and combat functions will be further improved.

Chen Chen’s goal is to maintain a team of about 50 people in Indonesia, but recruiting enough people will not be something that can be accomplished in a short time.

After the newcomers settled in, Chen Chen finally breathed a sigh of relief.

At this time, Labota was still not calm. The police were searching for the JD elements who caused the explosion, and gunshots could be heard from time to time outside.

Like him who had just arrived in La Bota, the six newcomers were still quite nervous - after all, they had never experienced actual combat, were inexperienced, and mentally immature.

So, Chen Chen made a quick decision without giving them more time to adapt. He called Argus directly and asked him to arrange a "joint patrol."

In order to ensure safety as much as possible, Shi Dakai personally led the team to participate in the patrol.

As the afternoon passed, Labota's gunfire turned from sparse to dense, then from dense to sparse, and finally stopped.

When the "patrol" returned in the evening, the demeanor of the six people had changed.

Chen Chen saw this, pulled Shi Dakai aside and asked:

"How's it going? Have they all been shot?"

Shi Dakai nodded and replied:

"They all fired, but only two of them were directly engaged."

"It's not bad. His movements are decisive and not merciless."

"But I still don't have actual combat experience. I still have a big reaction when I see dead people."

"Vomited?"

Chen Chen asked curiously.

"That's not the case. It's just a little uncomfortable, but it can basically be overcome."

Chen Chen nodded slightly, not surprised by this result.

For people who have never actually been on the battlefield, it is impossible for them to be as unburdened and unstressed about "killing" as they are in movies.

No army in the world can train people to be killing machines that can kill anyone they see.

New recruits must go through an adaptation process before going into battle. They must understand the consequences of shooting the bullets in their hands at the enemy, so that they can truly understand the meaning of each of their tactical actions and exert the power of their truly useful "killing skills."

Chen Chen originally planned to finish this matter in Pubei, but he had no choice. The situation was stronger than the people, so he had no choice but to get the people over first.

However, fortunately, the situation in Sulawesi is not much better than that in Pubei. Fortunately, the newcomers caught up with the opportunity for desensitization training as soon as they arrived.

Looking at the serious looking recruits on the side, Chen Chen didn't intend to say anything more to them.

He believed in the quality of the soldiers who came out of that team, and especially believed that after knowing who the enemies they killed were, they would not be able to pass this hurdle.

——

And sure enough, he was right.

Half an hour after returning from patrol, the mood of the six people had already improved when they attended the welcome dinner.

By the time you finish the meal, you will have fully recovered.

They finally crossed this hurdle, and from now on, they can truly be regarded as a "mercenary" and a "soldier".

Two days later, the adaptive training between the newcomers and the elderly was basically completed. Chen Chen also added the content of collaborative combat with military dogs to the training subjects, making full preparations for the subsequent "clearance activities".

He knew that in previous conflicts, MPRI had suffered heavy losses.

The absolutely elite team was completely wiped out. According to the strategic deployment of the United States and the United States in Indonesia, it is impossible for them to pull out another team of the same size to attack the Dongfeng Corps in a short period of time.

Therefore, their future mission is actually very clear, which is to cooperate with the police, centering on Rabota and Kendari, and gradually expand outward to eliminate the JD forces in the entire Sulawesi.

This work should have been started as soon as possible, but in fact, due to the "confrontation" situation between the president and the military, Gunawan did not dare to act rashly and could only "suppress" the unstable conditions within his jurisdiction as much as possible.

Chen Chen is not optimistic about such a conservative strategy, because he knows that jdism cannot be suppressed.

If we want to fight, we can only defeat them all at once and wipe out all their leaders.

Otherwise, the more you suppress them, the harder they will rebound.

And once this power of rebound is exploited by some covetous forces, the consequences will be...

It would be completely disastrous.

In his judgment, one week is the limit of balance. Once this time is exceeded, even God cannot save Sulawesi.

——

However, in this tense atmosphere, on the fourth day after the Kruno incident, Xiaoyu's call came.

And she also brought new bad news to Chen Chen.

"The president won, but not completely."

"The impact of the continuous large-scale terrorist attacks is too bad, and a large number of people have been held accountable."

"The military is in chaos, Gato Numanti has been taken under control and Prabowo has taken over his authority."

"This year's Eagle Shield exercise has been confirmed to be cancelled, and MPRI's power in Indonesia is being reduced."

"A number of U.S. military exchange personnel will be withdrawn, and intelligence activities will also be suspended."

"They will soon enter a state of temporary silence, and we must give them a fatal blow."

"Two things."

"First, Bashir must live."

"Second, in the next period of time, a group of people will evacuate from Indonesia, and you must stop them!"

"I?!"

Chen Chen froze on the spot in shock, and then continued to ask:

"What's going on? Where's the mobile brigade? Can't they even protect Bashir?"

"Civil strife! The mobile brigade is not an iron plate! Now the whole of Indonesia is in chaos. The president misjudged the situation. He did not transport Bashir to Jakarta before, but detained him near Lake Matana. But the mobile brigade there has also been bribed, and now there are no more than twenty guards around Bashir!"

"Also, the opponent's movements are much faster than we expected."

"After the MPRI failed to attack you, they immediately began preparing to evacuate."

"Now, the IS-K members associated with them have been evacuated. They are on a cargo ship bound for Jayapura from Kalimantan and will pass through the high seas north of Sulawesi in 50 hours!"

"They still need to wait for further instructions."

"The core of the problem is Numanti! If he can return to power in a short time, IS-K will not withdraw from Indonesia."

"We can't give them that chance. We have to get the evidence. That's the important bargaining chip."

"With this bargaining chip, we can take down Bali Bali."

"Go figure it out. You only have two days to prepare. If you need any equipment, tell me as soon as possible. We are very tight on time."

"clear."

Chen Chen took a deep breath and continued to ask:

"So what you're saying is that we must first rescue Bashir within two days, and then take control of the cargo ship where the IS-K leader is?"

"Yes, to be precise, you only have 2 hours to rescue Bashir."

The little fish on the other side replied solemnly:

"It's difficult, but it's the only solution."

"Let's find a way. I will send two helicopters over immediately. I will synchronize with you the specific information and requirements."

"Give me 20 minutes and I'll give you a spot."

"Bring him to LaBotta and protect him until the civil strife ends."

"There must be no coup in Indonesia, let alone a military coup, otherwise all our plans will be in vain."

"Okay, now go get ready."

"After you finish this job, you can have whatever you want!"
