More than two hours later, the news of the kidnapped of 38 Chinese exploration team members was sent back to the country. The China-Africa Group urgently ordered the exploration teams near the border areas in Tanzania to fully retract back to the safe area. Before confirming safety, the China-Africa Group suspended the exploration work in the Tanzania border areas. Erick from the old Li family did not expect that he would encounter such a difficult thing in just over a month. He quickly flew to the capital to coordinate with relevant parties for emergency coordination and discuss how to rescue the 38 exploration team members.

Zhongnanhai.

After learning the news, Chief No. 1 slapped the table and summoned the military and foreign affairs leaders. "How does the military be responsible for security work?" Chief No. 1 bluntly accused the military in front of Vice Chairman Liu. "For this matter, the military must come up with a complete set of emergency solutions. We must not only rescue these kidnapped exploration team members in time, but also ensure the safety of African developers in the future."

Although Vice Chairman Liu and other military personnel had 100 reasons to defend themselves, such as the garrison has not yet been in place to form combat power, and Tanzania is inaction... However, Vice Chairman Liu did not say a word. In the African Development Strategy, the military, as the person in charge of the security of the entire development strategy, had no reason to shirk such a major security accident.

The military can only relieve the shame if it organizes rescue, rescues the kidnapped exploration team members as soon as possible, and deals a heavy blow to the kidnappers. No matter how much it is said, it is meaningless.

"General Secretary, I have a great responsibility for such a big accident," said Vice Chairman Liu heavily. "This kidnapping incident, the military will organize a complete military rescue plan. Once the political solution is faced with difficulties, the military will launch a decisive rescue operation to rescue the people who have been kidnapped."

Seeing that the military did not refuse, the No. 1 leader slowed down his tone slightly, "For this matter, the China-Africa Group, the foreign affairs department and the military must work together to ensure the safety of the kidnapped personnel. If necessary, a certain ransom is required to be paid and the safety of the personnel will be guaranteed first."

"However," the leader No. 1 changed his tone and his tone became colder. "The military should have a proper plan to uproot the organization involved in this kidnapping to show warning!"

Since there is no idea what kind of organization is planning this shocking kidnapping case in China, in the view of Chief No. 1, in the future African development, a large number of Chinese people will stay in Africa to work. If this trend cannot be effectively stopped, it will have a significant impact on future strategic implementation. In a worried environment, one person cannot be expected to work well. If such kidnapping incidents occur repeatedly, maybe no one dares to work in Africa again.

Therefore, after the hostages were rescued this time, the kidnappers must be severely cracked down on them to serve as a warning to others.

General Staff War Room.

"Vice Chairman Liu, according to the preliminary analysis of the on-site report, this group of gangs should have been done by local warlords from the neighboring Congo of Tanzania. They dispatched more than 20 people, and their main combat weapon was AK47 submachine gun. According to the surviving police report of the local police, this group of gangs was not ruthless to the Tanzanians, but was quite restrained by our personnel. No Chinese was injured at the scene. This shows that this group of gangs is very likely to have kidnapped hostages and extorted money." Major General Zhu Shaoguang, head of the General Staff Intelligence Department, reported.

Being able to get so much information in a short period of time shows that the military has put in so much effort in Tanzania is not in vain. But for Vice Chairman Liu, these are far from enough.

"Is there any news about hostages, how many bandits are there, and where is their nest?" Faced with Vice Chairman Liu's series of questions, Zhu Shaoguang couldn't answer any of them.

"These issues are not clear. Needless to say, the military rescue plan cannot be completed?" Vice Chairman Liu ignored Major General Zhu Shaoguang, who looked embarrassed, turned to General Yang and asked. General Yang's cheeks were also hot and could not speak.

"What are the current warlords in the Congo area in the western border of Tanzania?" Vice Chairman Liu sighed and asked again.

"On the other side of the Tanzanm Panda area is the area where the Congolese anti-* government armed 'M23 movement' is mainly the activity area, but there are also people from the Congolese anti-* government armed faction, "Defend the People's National Congress" who are active. In addition to these two armed forces, there are four or five local warlords with a size of hundreds. In addition to the Congolese government forces controlling the Kalaimi urban area, the local situation is quite complicated, with about 10,000 armed personnel from different factions operating." Zhu Shaoguang replied with a tough bullet.

It is estimated that no one can figure out how many armed personnel are in the Congo. Judging from the list provided by the government, there are more than 300,000 armed personnel belonging to the government military series, and countless local warlords are large and small. According to the United Nations Stability Mission in the Congo (DK) Stabilization Mission, there are at least 200,000 armed personnel under various local warlords, of which more than 150,000 members of the two national anti-* government armed organizations, the "M23 Movement" and the "Defense of the People's National Congress".

After hearing this answer, Vice Chairman Liu couldn't help but be frowning. The situation in the area where the accident is now so complicated that it has exceeded his expectations. In this chaotic situation, the military's military rescue plan cannot even find a suitable combat target. Faced with this situation, the People's Liberation Army, which was preparing to go abroad for the first time, is not ready, and there is extremely lack of military experience and intelligence preparation.

No wonder the General Staff has been unable to formulate a plan. Who can draw up a feasible combat plan for combat where the combat area is unknown and the target is unknown?

However, under the current circumstances, even if the necessary intelligence support is lacking, the People's Liberation Army cannot do nothing. At this moment, the 86th Aircraft Infantry Brigade, which is preparing to station in Tanzania, has just passed the Strait of Malacca, so in the short term, the 86th Aircraft Infantry Brigade cannot be counted on.

Vice Chairman Liu frowned and pondered for a long time before he said to General Yang, "Order to use the assault battalion and special brigade of the 164th Land War Brigade as the main combat forces to immediately formulate a combat plan and place it in Tanzania through air transport to make military preparations for resolution by force. Once the specific location of the kidnapped personnel is known, take action immediately."

At this moment, Vice Chairman Liu really entered the state of war. No matter whether he was sure or not, he could not expect this matter to be let go. As one of the People's Liberation Army Marine Brigades, the 164th Brigade, one of the People's Liberation Army Marine Brigades, had a strong style. Its subordinate assault battalion consisted of a total of 750 Marines. The combat power was quite considerable. It has always been the sharp knife of the 184th Brigade. Although the number of special forces brigades in the 164th Marine Brigade is less than 300, each of them is the elite among the elites. He has rich special combat experience and has always undertaken the task of beheading.

Vice Chairman Liu named these two elite combat units to fight, and even facing tens of thousands of outlaws in the Congo, he would not be at a disadvantage.

"Yes! I'll do it right away." General Yang said with a stern command. Elite forces like the Marine Corps have always been dual leaders and one of the strategic mobile forces directly under the General Staff.

At the order of Vice Chairman Liu, the General Staff quickly came up with a combat plan. Although the information from the front line was vague at this moment, the 164th Land Brigade Assault Battalion and the Special Forces Brigade boarded the PLA Y-20 large military transport aircraft two hours later and began to set off towards Africa thousands of miles away. This large fleet of transport aircraft departing from a certain place in the southern country will take advantage of Myanmar airspace and fly directly to Mpanda, Tanzania after refueling through an air base in Sri Lanka.

At the same time, the helicopter teams under the China-Africa Group began to assemble to Mpanda. According to the deployment of the General Staff, they will undertake the air dispatch tasks of the 164th Marine Brigade Assault Battalion and the Special Forces Brigade. For the existing pilots of the helicopter team, if they are from a veteran and willing to undertake combat flight missions, the military will temporarily recruit them. If they are not willing, they only need to fly the helicopter to Mpanda. Many personnel in the Marine Corps also have flight experience in various aircraft models.

Tanzania mobilized three infantry battalions near Mpanda to rush to the accident area to cooperate with the PLA's operations. Their main task is to cover up. After the PLA's 164th Land Brigade Assault Battalion and Special Forces Brigade arrived, the PLA will act in disguise with the numbers of these three infantry battalions.

After more than 8 hours of silence, Lai Youwei, the captain of the helicopter team of the China African Group who arrived in Mpanda, was surprised to find that the fleet's GPS tracking system discovered the information of the GPS locator carried by the missing captain Liu Yunhan! In order to ensure the safety of each helicopter pilot, the China African Group equipped them with a small GPS locator to prevent them from being able to quickly find them when something happened to the helicopter.

Originally, this was a security measure prepared by the China-Africa Group, but unexpectedly, after being kidnapped, the GPS locator on Liu Yunhan was not confiscated by the bandits.

Judging from the information sent by Liu Yunhan's GPS locator, they were indeed brought to a deep forest in Kalemi on the other side of Mpanda. Although they are not sure whether all the kidnapped people are gathered together, after having such a goal, at least the scope of the target has been greatly narrowed.

Moreover, based on Liu Yunhan's GPS positioning information, the Tanzanian military initially judged that it was the M23 movement who planned and carried out the attack because this area is one of the areas where the M23 movement is active.
