Simulation Game: Crisis Management

Chapter 624 - 284: Forced Breakthrough

"Everyone, double column formation ahead, watch for blind spots!"

"Roger that!"

"Roger that!"

With Bi Xin’s order, Zhang Wenjun and Min Suri immediately responded quietly. In the next second, Dragon Tiger Assault Team One led, with Team Three behind, both armed and stepping stealthily from the shadows of the walls.

After lowering the BNVD1431 binocular night vision goggles, Gu Ji’s view showed two separate circles, about a 45-degree field of view, as if looking through a telescope in front of you.

Although the field of view is significantly reduced, the brightness is multiplied, appearing as if covered by a green filter effect of dusk.

All SWAT team members had the multi-light indicators on their 95-1B rifles activated.

Green laser beams moved around at the entrance of the Jinyuan Building, in the immediate front, and towards the rear guard direction.

Of course, the IR invisible lasers were activated.

This kind of beam generally requires the aid of night vision or infrared imaging equipment to become visible, which means ordinary Bai Family thugs can’t see these laser rays.

The advantage of using IR indicators for night operations is that.

On one hand, they help teammates notice the firing range, and on the other, assist with aiming.

"Maintain spacing in the double column!"

"This is Monkey, found three enemies at the building entrance, marked with laser guidance, should we eliminate?"

As the team advanced, two strong lights suddenly appeared at the building entrance, revealing two thugs holding flashlights moving from the lobby.

After the frontline scout reported the location, Bi Xin did not immediately order to fire, "Prioritize concealed elimination!"

"Understood!"

...

"Still not fixed yet?"

"No idea, damn it, it’s pitch black inside the building, can’t see a thing!"

"The key is the signal, our Information Technology Department has a lot of projects at stake, no signal or internet now, how much business will be delayed!"

At the building steps, a "leader" who seemed like a team leader was reprimanding subordinates when suddenly, several shadows sprang from the side greenery, tackling them to the ground, arms tightening around their throats, preventing them from making any sound.

"Police! Stay put!!"

A scout named Monkey whispered into a thug’s ear, but the thug still struggled desperately, even attempting to shout and alert others. So Monkey decisively tightened the chokehold, rendering the thug unconscious in an instant.

"Tie these three up!"

"Roger!"

"This is the command center, intelligence from Dianyun Narcotics Control reports that informant Wa Xueming has already sent half the building’s thugs outside. Currently, around 150 armed men remain inside, with 40% possessing firearms. Remember, keep your operation low-key, maintain concealment and suddenness, don’t give them time to react militarily, or they might harm the hostages. Once inside the building, be prompt and efficient in execution and withdrawal!"

"Received at the frontline!"

As Team One was binding the thugs with nylon ties, Lei Wanshan’s voice suddenly came through their tactical earpieces.

After handling the enemies at the building entrance, Bi Xin began explaining the infiltration route, planning to follow the building’s fire escape plan provided by Chaojun and prioritize rescuing people from the basement.

But Gu Ji glanced at the time on his wrist.

The Bai Family Border Defense Camp had already returned to Old Street City for defense; though they jammed Jinzhou Park’s signals, the Bai Family wasn’t foolish. Once contact is lost, their first thought would be a problem in the park, undoubtedly sending reinforcements.

Moreover, only about 20 minutes remain before the local warlords storm into the city.

They don’t have time to waste searching for hostages.

Therefore.

Gu Ji made a bold decision: "Mr. Bi, Zhang Zhong, floors 2 to 6 are the electric fraud department, I suspect some hostages have been forced to work under threat. Time is tight, should we split up to increase search efficiency?"

"Splitting up? That might disperse our forces..." someone in the SWAT team hesitated.

Indeed, this is why it’s crucial to establish a primary and secondary commanding officer during an operation; everyone’s priority is to follow the primary commander’s directives. If the primary commander loses command capability, the secondary commander takes over to prevent indecisiveness at critical moments.

This suggestion by Gu Ji was actually a mistake.

But he had to raise it.

Having witnessed firsthand how Ding Le, Yang Jinkang, and Pan Xinli suffered, he understood the Bai Family’s torture methods well.

So, he’s convinced some, if not most of the seven hostages have been coerced into working.

After all, most of these people are just naive students, unlikely to withstand the Bai Family’s intimidation and threats.

Bringing it up now is better than after a confrontation erupts inside.

Bi Xin, an experienced commander, was not to be underestimated.

He squinted slightly and quickly made a judgment, "He’s right, time is paramount. The command center just mentioned remaining forces inside the building; disperse with 150 men. Team One, come with me to the basement, Team Three heads to the electric fraud department, and the Myanmar side stays out to assist."

"Understood"

"Gao Bo, Monk, move out!"

"Received!"

After securing the scene, Zhang Wenjun issued the order to continue the operation. Now with Team Three leading, they began covering Team One’s entrance into the building, while the Myanmar Police Force left a five-person team, staying concealed outside to provide backup.

The lobby of the building’s first floor had already gathered quite a number of people.
