Chapter 231 Interrogation and Finding a Place to Stay
The long-haired male gangster was not too honest. Even though Jack inserted a knife between his legs and scared him half to death, he was still trembling but refused to reveal too many details.
In the end, Jiejie resorted to both soft and hard tactics, and launched a psychological offensive to get him to tell the truth.
The families of these militants are all controlled by the "Abu Zaev" organization. Once it is discovered that he has rebelled, not a single one of the seven or eight members of his family will be able to save their heads.
So after Jack promised to give him a good time, the guy hesitated and revealed some information.
This group of people is a small force affiliated with the "Abu Zaev" organization, with about forty or fifty people. They usually stay in the village of Dandulit, about 20 miles away from here.
Obviously, the battle in Marawi was not a perfect siege as the Philippine government boasted. Dozens of veterans among them were wounded soldiers who were withdrawn from the battlefield at that time.
Their leader, Junma, was one of the wounded soldiers, with a ferocious scar on his face. It was said that he had used a captured sniper rifle to kill six ZF troops and made great achievements, so he was appointed to lead this unit. .
These wounded soldiers also brought back a lot of weapons and equipment, some of which were seized, and some of which were simply "traded". In addition to the old godmother who had put them on the pickup truck, they also had a lot of rocket launchers.
Early this morning, some nearby villagers came to their leader Junma in a panic, saying that a large plane flew over his house, flying very low, and he guessed it had landed nearby.
The villagers were worried that it was a ZF army plane, so they hurriedly came to report it at dawn.
But their leader Junma told them that it could not be a military plane. If the ZF army was dispatched, their spies in Manila would not have any news.
Then he brought more than half of his men and killed them in a mighty manner, and the scene before appeared.
Jack asked about the situation on the island again. Jolo Island is actually a quite large volcanic island, covering an area of nearly 900 square kilometers. There are more than 100,000 people living on the island.
There are about five or six small and medium-sized towns distributed in the coastal area, mainly on the northern coast of the island, which gathers nearly two-thirds of the island's population.
There is almost no industry on the island, mainly fishing, pearling, etc. There is even a port in the northeast that can berth large ships and a small airport.
The remaining one-third of the population is spread across the island, engaged in traditional agriculture such as rice, coconut, and cassava. However, almost all residents on this island are devout LV believers, and are naturally organized by the "Abu Zaev" Sympathizer or supporter.
Not only will they inform these extremists, but some of them are even part of them. They can assemble with just one order, which is quite similar to serving the people in their spare time and serving as soldiers in war.
It can be said that except for a few desperate missionaries who still dare to operate in larger towns, foreigners are almost invisible here.
Therefore, this group of people often drives small boats to Indonesia in the south or simply crosses the Sulu Sea to Palawan Island in the northwest to kidnap foreign tourists.
After the Marawi War, the "Abu Zaev" organization lost several important leaders and entered a period of dormancy. The target of kidnappings also changed from foreign tourists to mainly locals from the Philippines and Indonesia.
"We're in big trouble. According to this guy, there's no way we can leave here safely."
Jack doesn't know how to sail a boat, and the big port is in the north. Even if they go to the small seaport in the southeast as originally planned, it will be difficult to escape here if they grab a boat.
After all, this is not an uninhabited island. There are informants of the "Abu Zaev" organization everywhere. Even if they escape to the sea, they may be overtaken by armed boats. With an old godmother on board, everyone can be captured.
"Let's find a way to call for help first." Captain Torrance spread out the map and pointed to the northeast and asked.
"I saw some facilities here before I landed. What is this place?"
Luo Nu identified it for a long time before answering hesitantly, "This is an old abandoned mine. It was originally owned by the government, but we drove it away a few years ago."
"Is there any external communication available there?" Captain Torrance's eyes lit up and he asked quickly.
"It should be there. Our people ransacked the place, but it was not completely destroyed. Occasionally, some people would bring women snatched from the town to play there."
"No one usually?" Jack didn't believe it. This guy's eyes flickered when he spoke, but it didn't look like he was telling the truth.
"Snapped!"
He slapped a scripture he found on this guy in front of him.
"Do you dare to swear on this? Just use your family."
"I tell the truth, but you have to agree to kill me, right here. I can't let them see the signs of being forced to confess."
Luo Nu roared in despair.
"No problem, I will pile your body together with your companions and hide it in the jungle over there. In such a ghost place, after a day or two, no one will be willing to carefully check the condition of your body, right? ?”
Jack said, raising the QBZ97 in his hand and pointing it directly at his head.
"We hid several women there without telling the leader Junma, and three nearby villagers took turns guarding them. There is an Internet connection there, and you can communicate with the outside world by starting the diesel engine."
"We will shoot some videos and put them on the dark web to sell for money. That's it. I have said everything. Just kill me, please."
"boom!"
Jack shot him in the head, causing several people watching the interrogation to scream in surprise.
Dragging the body upside down and throwing the guy into the jungle to keep company with his three evil-doing friends, Jack also "kindly" covered it with some leaves.
Apart from the eagles that eat monkeys, the only ferocious beasts on the Philippine Islands are the crocodiles that appear near rivers. There aren't even any larger streams here, so there are obviously no crocodiles.
But it doesn't matter, the various scavenging insects that smell the smell will soon clean up these corpses.
Even the large pool of blood and brains left on the ground was now surrounded by various small bugs such as ants, which made people shudder.
Although the interrogation brought out some bad news, everyone finally had their next goal. They went to the old mine and got in touch with the outside world as soon as possible.
If that place is really, as Luonu said, a place where they used to commit crimes, it also means that few people usually come close to it. After clearing the guards, there is a place for the passengers to stay overnight.
The tragic facts are all in front of them, and there are unlucky people ahead of them. Now, these surviving passengers, just as they expected, are forced to unite tightly together, and finally have some collectivism spirit.
Can I ask for that monthly ticket?
