Chapter 550 Strange Cargo Robbery
On the official road, Fei Guangtou was blocked next to the truck, somewhat bewildered as he looked at the armed personnel in front of him who resembled refugees. He immediately waved his hand and shouted, "Brothers! We're delivering military supplies to Officer Tang Zhengde of the Nuza Living Town. The goods on this truck are all stamped. Please, brothers, let us off the hook. I've prepared some cash, so you won't have made a wasted trip!"
"Tang Zhengde is nothing!" The Asian man leading the group raised his gun and struck Fei Guangtou on the head. "Nobody move, get out of the car!"
At the same time, A Shui, Zhang Chao, and others also jumped out of the truck, holding their guns, with fierce expressions, and stood by the truck, preparing for a desperate fight.
"You dare to take up guns?!"
"Da da da...!"
"...!"
The bandits, seeing people rushing down from the convoy, immediately began to raise their guns and fire randomly into the sky, putting pressure on everyone.
Next to the lead car, Fei Guangtou glanced around and saw people rushing out of the woods. This group gathered together, and there must have been three or four hundred of them.
The number was ten times that of the escort unit. If they started a fire, it would be no different than sending them to their deaths. If they lost their lives, they would also lose the goods.
Moreover, Fei Guangtou felt that something was wrong. He stepped forward, deliberately pressing his hand on the pistol at his waist, and said to the Chinese man, "Brother, these are really Officer Tang Zhengde's goods. If you take them, it'll be a big trouble. How about this, with so many brothers here, I'll give you 300,000 in cash, consider it..."
"Go to hell!" The other party cursed, raised his head and smashed the butt of his gun into Fei Guangtou's chest, and then waved his hand and shouted in English, "Rob the goods!"
"Brothers, let's split 300,000 ourselves, let's fight them!" A Shui said, his eyes red as he was about to fire.
When Fei Guangtou heard this, he immediately cursed, "Fight my ass, put down your guns, put them all down!"
Before he could finish speaking, the refugee-like armed men rushed up and beat Fei Guangtou and his forty or so men, while continuing to fire their guns as a threat.
A Shui and others originally wanted to fight back, and even wanted to take the goods off the truck and use them on the spot, but Fei Guangtou stopped them.
...
The next day, a little after 10 a.m.
Inside Nuza Living Town, Su Tianyu got out of the car and walked into a large inn. He immediately saw Fei Guangtou, covered in external injuries, talking to a quack doctor.
"Yes, yes, get more medicine, many of my brothers have knife wounds." Fei Guangtou frowned at the quack doctor and said, "You can also call more colleagues over, money is not a problem."
"Okay, then I'll come again later." The quack doctor nodded and quickly left with his assistant.
Su Tianyu led Hou Guoyu forward, frowned, and asked Fei Guangtou, "What's going on?"
"Damn it!" Fei Guangtou's mouth was swollen from being hit, his face had scratches, his eye sockets were bruised, and he looked miserable. He replied, "This thing is just weird! I don't know where three or four hundred people came from, all with guns, jumped out, and started fighting without saying a word."
"Three or four hundred people? Aren't you exaggerating?"
"No, there are definitely three or four hundred people." Fei Guangtou replied seriously, "A dozen or so of them were holding grenade launchers!"
"Then you were right not to fight back." Su Tianyu paused and asked, "How are the brothers doing?!"
"This is where it gets weird!" Fei Guangtou said very sensitively, "Logically speaking, with so many people robbing goods, shouldn't they kill two people first to suppress the situation? That wouldn't make sense, right?"
"That's right!" Su Tianyu nodded.
"They fired guns, but they didn't kill any of our people, they only used knives and sticks to hit us." Fei Guangtou said in a low voice, "And the location they chose to attack was also calculated. There were forests and mountains on both sides. We were blocked there and couldn't even run."
Su Tianyu was silent.
"Damn it, I think this thing is very obvious." Fei Guangtou turned his head and glanced around, "In Nuza Living Town, isn't it strange that three or four hundred people can carry guns and work without anyone knowing? It's also a little unusual to rob goods without hurting people, right?"
Su Tianyu scratched his head, looked at Fei Guangtou, and asked again, "When you came to Nuza, did someone receive you?"
"Yes!" Fei Guangtou pointed to the quack doctor who had just left and said, "They were found by people here, and they also arranged the inn."
Su Tianyu licked his lips, "Okay, you settle down the brothers, I'll go find out the reason."
"Should I go with you?"
"You've been beaten like this, so don't go, rest." Su Tianyu was not too anxious about the goods at the moment, because some of his ideas were the same as Lao Fei's.
After the two finished communicating, Su Tianyu returned to the car with Hou Guoyu and dialed a number.
"Hello? Hello, Brother Su!"
"Brother Tang, are you busy? I have something to ask you." Su Tianyu replied politely.
"Come on, I'm in the military camp."
"Okay, wait for me."
After speaking, Su Tianyu looked up at Hou Guoyu and said, "Go to the military camp!"
Hou Guoyu, wearing sunglasses, drove the car and drove Su Tianyu to the garrison headquarters of Nuza Living Town.
On the way, Su Tianyu took out his phone and quickly sent a text message.
...
District One, Washington.
Father An sat on the sofa at home, reading the newspaper with a frown.
"What's wrong, are you in a bad mood today?" Mother An, Yu Zhen, took the initiative to ask.
Father An threw down the newspaper and said, "The Mexican government army has been making great progress in the past six months, recovering Casaro, Sinaloa, four important towns, and more than a dozen enemy-occupied areas. The rebels have retreated again and again."
Yu Zhen was not a military or political cadre, so she couldn't quite understand her husband's obscure words, "Does this have any impact on us?"
"Early unification of the Mexican region, or the rise of any one force, is not in line with the border policy." Father An stood up and walked slowly to the restaurant, "Last year, the First Army Corps removed the designations of two armies and added 60,000 new recruits. There is a major reshuffle at the top, and this is not a good sign."
Yu Zhen followed into the restaurant and reached out to massage Father An's shoulders, "Don't worry too much about national affairs."
"Speaking of which, I'm just annoyed." Father An put down the chopsticks he had just picked up, glared and said, "Whenever there is any disturbance, we will definitely be the first to react here. Why?!"
Yu Zhen did not reply, but silently massaged him, using endless tenderness to relax his spirit.
Father An relaxed for a while, closed his eyes and asked, "How is Qiqi? She hasn't been back for many days."
"She has a holiday these two days, and she probably went to find her little boyfriend again." Yu Zhen replied with a chuckle.
"Su Tianyu!" Father An muttered, and suddenly asked, "What position is he in now?"
"He is a company commander," Yu Zhen said very accurately Su Tianyu's rank, "He is the company commander of the Coast Guard."
Father An nodded slowly, and said nothing more.
...
A little after 2 p.m.
Inside the garrison headquarters of the Mexican government army in Nuza Living Town, Su Tianyu stretched out his palm, smiled, and said to a Senior Colonel Brigade Commander, "Long time no see, Brother Tang!"
