Night fell quietly. Gunshots rang out once again in Tartus, which had been quiet for the entire afternoon. It was unknown if it was because the battle in the morning had caused too much damage to the red flag. In any case, Tartus had fallen into a strange silence for the entire afternoon. It was only when night fell that the conflict erupted again.
However, at this moment, it had nothing to do with Qin Tianlong and the others. The fight was the business of the Syrians. However, there was bad news from the command center. The people with the red flag were actually gathering the armed forces of Tartus. Banias 'side was also fighting.
Even the government forces sent a distress call to the peace-keeping force. It indicated that the armed forces might have plans to attack the government camp. Many armed men were wandering outside the government camp, making the government soldiers nervous.
In the past, the military and police of the government in the Middle East were still very powerful. However, after the chaos in the Middle East, coupled with the intentional actions of some ambitious people, the militia became stronger and stronger.
There were more than 3,000 government troops in Tartus, and there were also a few tanks and armored vehicles. Although most of them were obsolete by the Soviet Union, they were still considered impressive equipment on this land. Of course, they could not compare to the government troops in Damascene.
However, in Tartus, other than the government forces, the number of guns reached tens of thousands. In other words, there were tens of thousands of civilians with weapons, at least an AK rifle.
Although most of these AK rifles were imitations from other countries, the bullets they fired could still kill people.
Facing so many armed people, anyone could become a match for the government forces or even the peacekeepers. The special nature of the peacekeepers made it impossible for General Nuo to order them to enter the city at night.
That would be irresponsible to the soldiers.
However, in order to deter the militia, especially the Red Flag organization, General Norway ordered nearly ten Black Hawk helicopters to take off and enter Tartus to deter the armed men on the ground.
" Maintaining peace " was not a simple goal.
Throughout the night, the peacekeepers 'camp was brightly lit. The sentry posts did not dare to relax at all. The bullets had already been loaded, and the armored vehicles equipped with 60mm rapid-fire cannons had arrived at the entrance of the camp, ready to launch a fatal blow to any creatures hostile to the camp.
Fortunately, in the middle of the night, perhaps because those people were tired or they did not have enough ammunition, they finally stopped. The helicopters that had been hovering above Tartus for a few hours also left and returned to the camp after seeing that the ground had stopped moving.
The next morning, the general of the Northern Wei held a military meeting. As the chief instructor, Qin Tianlong naturally attended.
" Gentlemen, I think everyone should know what happened in Tartus last night. At the request of the Tartus government and government forces, we will launch a raid called Thunder today. Together with the 2,000 Arab government forces that came from Beirut last night, we will launch a strike against the Red Flag, an extreme armed group that is entrenched in the eastern old Urban area.”
"The red flag has already seriously affected the peace of the region and brought huge security risks to the local civilians. After consulting the Security Council, the permanent members of the Security Council agreed to carry out this operation with four votes in favor and one abstaining.”
"Gongyang, I think we need your people to participate in this operation. Help us capture the leaders of the red flags and sneak into the eastern old Urban area. We also need your help. "For this, the United Nations approved a reward of one million US dollars, while the United States, Britain, France, and other countries raised a total of eight million US dollars. I hope you can contribute to the success of this operation.”
"I have a question." Qin Tianlong thought for a moment and raised his hand.
"Sure."
"Do we have any intelligence to support us this time? For example, where are the leaders of the red flags and the number of enemies we are facing? We can't just charge in and fight, right? Also, what role did the government forces in the operation play?”
"Intelligence support, no. People with red flags were all over the Dongcheng Area. It could be said that most of the armed personnel in the eastern old district were people with red flags.”
"In addition, the government forces of Syracuse will begin a siege on the eastern old Urban area. They will also send armored troops into the old city to provide us with cover.”
"Then, does that mean that everyone we see might be a person with the red flag? We can't kill anyone we see, right? Everyone knew that there were definitely civilians among them. Besides, how was he going to solve the problem of the IED? I can't let my subordinates enter the war zone under such circumstances. Furthermore, they are surrounded by the military and police. I don't trust them very much.”
Qin Tianlong immediately rejected the idea. The military officers of the various countries began to talk to each other in low voices. General Nuo also knew that this matter was indeed very dangerous. There was no guarantee for the soldiers of the peace-keeping force. Once they entered the old Urban area in the east, they might face enemies on all sides.
However, General Nuo also knew that these higher-ups had placed their hopes on Qin Tianlong, who was Gongyang's troops.
From their powerful strength, the United Kingdom, the United States, and other countries made an analysis. For an armed force like the militia, without aircraft, missiles, and even more powerful heavy weapons, with Qin Tianlong's current number of troops, as long as they were equipped with enough ammunition, they could completely kill tens of thousands of people.
How could Qin Tianlong not know what these people were thinking? That was why he rejected them with all sorts of reasons. He had already said that if those people still insisted on taking action, he could go through the motions. However, if he saw that something was wrong, he would definitely lead his team and leave the war zone. Anyway, he did not collect any commission from the peace-keeping force. He could leave at any time.
"Then Gongyang, do you have any good suggestions?”
"Let the Arab military and police be in front. The peacekeepers will be in charge of the surrounding mission. The special forces will enter and cooperate with the Arab military and police. To put it bluntly, this matter is still a matter of their Lya. Our peace-keeping force can just act as a backup. They're too good at making us the main force.”
Qin Tianlong's words won over the hearts of all the officers present. Gongyang's suggestion was completely beneficial to them. The general nodded and felt that this was the best way.
However, he was the commander-in-chief. He couldn't say such words, but if Gongyang said it, even the five permanent members of the Security Council couldn't find fault with him.
"Alright, I will contact the council and discuss this matter again. After the meeting ends, all troops should be prepared to set off. Once the order was given, they would set off immediately!”
"Yes, sir." All the officers present stood up and responded loudly before leaving the meeting room. Qin Tianlong also left the command center after the meeting and returned to his residence.
If they were to hold a meeting again, it would take at least the afternoon before they could take action. According to Qin Tianlong's knowledge, the Huaxia Peacekeepers would arrive around noon.
Hence, Qin Tianlong told his subordinates to prepare weapons and ammunition. He went to the arsenal to get some grenades and grenades before ignoring them.
