Chapter 273 Would rather die than surrender
Chapter 273 Would rather die than surrender
"What's going on? Why are we in Libya?"
Gao Yi believed that Marina had already received the news, so he didn't need to start from the source. Although the tone of his questioning was a little impolite, after all, there was a problem with the plane arranged by the French, so it was reasonable to ask her.
"I don't know what happened, but it's definitely the Americans who took action. What's the situation on your side now?"
"We escaped from the airport, but what should we do next, where should we go, how can we leave Tripoli."
Marina was silent, and at this moment, silence seemed very, very bad.
Finally, Marina whispered, "We used to have a relatively complete spy network in Libya, but now, we have almost no available manpower in Libya. It is a forgotten corner, but the most important thing is that we don't have too many resources to waste in Libya."
After all, the French Directorate-General for External Security is not the CIA. Let alone comparing with the CIA, it is not even as good as MI6.
Maintaining a global spy network is a game that only big countries can afford, and France does not have the strength to do so.
"So you're saying you can't help?"
Marina said a little embarrassedly: "I am from the Counterintelligence Department. My power is limited to mainland France. Outside of France, I have almost no power available. Now, my advice to you is to find a safe place and then... ask Shaman to help you."
The French cannot be relied upon, Marina expressed this tactfully.
We really can't waste time on the French, so we should just cling to the big brother's legs.
Gao Yi hung up the phone immediately and called Abdullah quickly.
You can't just call your big brother every time something happens. You'd better talk to the person in charge under your big brother.
"Hey, do you have any available hands in Libya?"
Abdullah was stunned by Gao Yi's call. He thought for a moment and said, "No, we don't have any business in Libya, so of course we don't have any permanent staff in Libya."
In fact, this result should have been expected.
Think about it, how long has it been since we last saw news about Libya since the end of the Libyan civil war?
Regardless of what attacks occurred in Libya or whether an armed faction came to power and became a puppet of the Americans, the long time that Libya has not been in the news is a measure of how long Libya has been forgotten by the world.
Libya was destroyed, leaving the Libyans to fend for themselves. Who would be crazy enough to station so many spies in such a dilapidated place that has been reduced to ruins?
Even the Americans are unwilling to waste resources. It's very simple. If the CIA had a capable and useful team here, it would definitely do it itself. Why would it let Libyan soldiers put an end to Gao Yi and others?
Ultimately, we still have to rely on ourselves. It is not impossible to rely on help from France and Saudi Arabia, but it will definitely be too late.
Gao Yi looked at the people in the ambulance. He thought for a moment and said, "We can only rely on ourselves for the time being. Where should we run now? Does anyone have any good suggestions?"
After going around in circles, we are back to the original topic.
Feng Biao seemed helpless. He whispered, "The mercenaries' situation is difficult enough, but at least they know where to retreat. What about us... is this like catching a turtle in a jar?"
Facing the sea on one side and surrounded by desert on three sides, being trapped in Tripoli really feels like being caught in a jar.
Feng Biao, who was the best at escaping, had no other ideas.
Gao Yi looked at the man in sunglasses at his feet.
Of course Gao Yi knew how to wake up the person who had been knocked unconscious. Now everyone was confused, so he might as well ask the culprit. Perhaps he could find a breakthrough from him.
If it really doesn't work, it's good to let out some air.
"Wake up, wake up!"
After rubbing the sunglasses man's neck for a while and pinching his philtrum, Gao Yi slapped the sunglasses man twice in the face and said sternly, "Open your eyes, stop pretending to be unconscious."
The man in sunglasses finally opened his eyes. Of course, his sunglasses had been taken off long ago.
"You and I……"
Not knowing what to say as an opening remark, the man in sunglasses hesitated for a moment, but finally sighed and said, "Forget it."
Gao Yi said fiercely: "Who are you!"
It makes sense to ask questions even though you already know the answer. You have to start from what you know and gradually open up the psychological defenses of the person being interrogated.
The man in sunglasses rolled his eyes around twice, as if he was thinking about how to answer.
Gao Yi was not in a hurry either, he just continued to stare at the man in sunglasses coldly.
The ambulance jolted violently, and the man in sunglasses was shocked. He suddenly said, "We are in the car. There is no such bumpy place in the airport. In other words, you escaped from the airport?"
Gao Yi's mind worked quickly. He smiled and said, "Yes, we escaped."
The man in sunglasses frowned, and then a helpless look appeared on his face, which soon turned into despair. "You guys can still run away like this?"
Although the man in sunglasses seemed to be questioning Gao Yi, he was more self-deprecating. He said with a look of despair: "Oh, I'm done, I'm completely done. I even messed up such a simple thing."
Gao Yi coughed twice and said, "Since you are aware of your situation, you should tell me everything you know. You are going to die anyway, but do you want to die after being tortured for a long time, or be shot to death? I believe you know which one to choose, right?"
The man in sunglasses looked particularly conflicted.
At this moment, Luca suddenly shouted into the intercom: "We are being chased by someone!"
It's only been a few minutes and he's been caught up so quickly.
Gao Yi sighed helplessly, and then he said to the man in sunglasses: "Now, you answer whatever I ask. If you don't answer, I will blow your head off immediately, because it is no longer of much value. Do you understand?"
If the interrogation is conducted while someone is being chased, then the interrogation will inevitably be simple and direct.
The man in sunglasses fears this situation more than anyone else.
"go ahead."
"who are you."
"Jolson Eaton, CIA, deputy head of the Libya working group, has three people under him. There are five people in our group in total."
Five people in total? Gao Yi couldn't believe it when he heard the news.
Unlike France, Libya is now controlled by the Americans. How come they only have five people stationed in Libya?
"Five people in the whole of Libya?"
"Nine in total, five in Tripoli and four in Benghazi. Yes, just a few people, because Libya is completely under control, and we are the CIA, CIA, you understand? It is not the CIA's responsibility to control the occupied areas. Now the Department of Homeland Security has more people stationed in Libya."
The man in sunglasses has a name now. His name is Jolson. Jolson now seems to be able to tell everyone everything.
Gao Yi wanted to ask more questions when he suddenly heard two popping sounds. He looked up and saw two bullet holes on the roof of the ambulance. The bullets penetrated the side of the car body and then went out from the roof.
Feng Biao took a look at the bullet hole and immediately said, "7.62. Judging from the angle, it's less than a hundred meters away from us."
You can tell the trajectory of the ballistic projectile by looking at the bullet hole made by a bullet, and based on the height of the ambulance and the approximate height of the gun when it was fired, you can also roughly judge the distance.
Qiao Ersen looked more desperate than Gao Yi.
Gao Yi said in a deep voice: "Don't ask those meaningless questions. Now tell me what is going on."
Jolson said without hesitation: "We have received a notice that a plane may make an emergency landing at Tripoli Airport, and the truck driver of Sky Garden is on this plane."
"Wait, what? What do you mean trucker?"
"I don't know. I only know that the Sky Garden is a target that must be dealt with, and the truck driver is an important figure who must be killed, preferably captured alive."
"go on."
Jolson exhaled and said, "Our team leader wanted to be responsible for the task of arresting the truck driver, but I snatched it away. Yes, I defeated the team leader with great difficulty and snatched the task of arresting you, because I think it would be a great achievement to lead the troops to surround a transport plane that had made an emergency landing and then capture the person it wanted to capture, especially since this mission was led by the Free Wind."
Gao Yi could only ask: "Wait a minute, the free wind?"
"Let me put it this way."
Jolson thought for a moment, then he said seriously, "Free Wind is a legendary CIA action team. They belong to the Intelligence Department instead of the Action Department, but often act on their own and have a high degree of autonomy. Free Wind sent a message saying that they tracked down the truck driver in France, and then tampered with the plane the truck driver was on, making it very likely that the transport plane would make an emergency landing at Tripoli Airport."
After finishing his words, Jolson spread his hands and said, "You should understand by now. A star intelligence team of the CIA planned an operation and personally carried it out. However, due to the long distance, they needed our cooperation to arrest the person. This step should have been the easiest, but then I took over the command of the operation and I messed it up."
The name "Free Wind" sounds a bit childish, but it can accurately find the transport plane in flight, sneak into the heavily guarded military airport, install a bomb or something else on the plane in flight, accurately control the type and severity of the fault, and accurately make the transport plane make an emergency landing at the Tripoli airport.
Each step was difficult, much more difficult than the final arrest operation, but the most difficult parts were all completed accurately, only to fail at the last and simplest step.
Gao Yi looked at Qiao Ersen with sympathy in his eyes. He couldn't help but say, "Then you are really finished. You stole this operation. Man, I hope you didn't get this mission by relying on your connections."
Qiao Ersen sighed deeply, and then he said helplessly: "Without support, how can I possibly get this mission?"
After saying that, Qiao Ersen's eyes turned, and he looked at Gao Yi seriously and said, "Now that I've been captured by you, the only one who can drive the Libyans to chase you is my superior, who is also the leader of our competitor. As long as he can capture you and rescue me, that will be my real doomsday. In fact, I know that I can't survive if I fall into your hands, but I would rather die than let the leader have the last laugh."
Gao Yi was very surprised and asked: "Oh, do you have any way to let us escape?"
"No, but I can let you kill the team leader."
After finishing speaking, Jolson said expectantly, "As long as the team leader dies, no one will be able to order the Libyans to do anything. This way, your situation will at least be better than it is now. How about you listen to me and let's cooperate?"
