As soon as Zhao Changtian finished speaking, Guo Da strode out of the square and walked closer. He nodded to the leaders present.
"The negotiations failed. The Wang brothers said they would not continue the negotiation until they saw the money. Moreover, they gave a one-hour deadline, claiming that if the time was up and the money was not delivered, one hostage would be killed every ten minutes."
Guo Da¡¯s concise report.
"What a bastard!"
Zhu Peng looked ugly and cursed.
"Secretary, what should we do? Do we agree to their conditions temporarily? In order to delay the time."
After venting his anger, Zhu Peng asked Zhao Changtian for instructions with a sullen face.
"No need, I have never had the habit of compromising with this kind of person, and even if we compromise temporarily, there will be no good results in the end."
Zhao Changtian squinted his eyes and gave a cold and firm reply.
¡°Immediately prepare three bulletproof vests and a woolen silk bag, pretending to be full of money.¡±
Taking a deep breath, Zhao Changtian faced Zhu Peng and Li Huanghe and issued the order.
"Secretary, what do you mean?" Zhu Peng looked at Zhao Changtian in shock. Despite his questioning tone, Zhu Peng already knew clearly the real purpose of Zhao Changtian's orders, which was to forcefully attack to rescue the hostages.
Zhu Peng is very clear about the huge difficulty and hidden risks involved in this. He believes that Zhao Changtian is also very clear about it. But even so, Zhao Changtian still decides to do this. This kind of courage or Zhu Peng felt inferior to him in terms of courage. Even if he had been replaced by another municipal party committee secretary, he probably would not have issued such an order so decisively.
After all, once the mission fails, Zhao Changtian, as the decision-maker, will bear most of the responsibility, and it may even directly lead to resignation.
"Follow the order."
See the hesitation in Zhu Peng's eyes. Zhao Changtian said decisively.
"Yes!" Feeling Zhao Changtian's firm attitude, Zhu Peng no longer hesitated and responded with a solemn expression.
Just when Zhao Changtian was making his decision, among the crowd watching around the People's Square, two famous reporters from the China News Service in Beijing, Wu Fei and Zheng Peng, were discussing what they saw.
"Old Wu. Such a hostage-taking incident of a bad nature is rare in China."
The speaker is Zheng Peng, 38 years old, a senior reporter from China News Service. He is known in the journalism world for his sharp writing and is a famous penman in Beijing. Standing next to him was Wu Fei. Now forty-three years old, he can be considered a famous person, but compared to Zheng Peng, his fame and status are slightly lower.
"Dapeng, I hear your tone, why do you have so little sympathy? You are such a hard-hearted person!"
Wu Fei looked at his good friend and colleague beside him. He said with a somewhat sarcastic tone.
Zheng Peng glanced at his friend and retorted disapprovingly, "As an excellent journalist, maintaining a calm and objective attitude is the most important quality. The so-called compassion is the most important thing. I"
"Come on, don't tell me your old tricks. My ears are ringing with cocoons. Although you are doing better in the club than me, it doesn't mean that I agree with your cold-blooded theories."
Before Zheng Peng could finish speaking, Wu Fei interrupted him rudely.
Zheng Peng didn't feel embarrassed at all after being interrupted, but said to himself: "Speaking of Lao Wu, I think it's just a coincidence that we came here. We just arrived in Jincheng this morning, and something so newsworthy happened in the afternoon. big event.¡±
"What do you mean? Do you suspect that I had predicted that something like this would happen, so I dragged you all the way from the capital? If I really had that ability, would I let a successful villain like you get in my head? The one who dominates and brings blessings."
Wu Fei stared and protested with some dissatisfaction.
"That's not what I meant. It was just a joke. Look at your bad temper."
I was really angry when I saw my good friend. Zheng Peng quickly started talking nonsense.
"Then, Zheng Peng quickly changed the topic, "I'm talking about Lao Wu, the municipal party secretary named Zhao, he is really young and scary. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed it even if I was beaten to death."
"Well, if it weren't for the fact that Lao Qian, the deputy mayor of Jin City, and I have been classmates for many years, I wouldn't have believed him when he called and mentioned this matter two days ago, let alone dragged you all the way. Run over and dig up material on this guy.¡±
Wu Fei nodded and explained a few words.
"The 26-year-old municipal party committee secretary of a prefecture-level city is the only one in the country, right?" Zheng Peng said with some emotion.
"If I hadn't seen him coming in the No. 1 municipal party committee car, and the leaders at the scene were all focused on him, I really couldn't believe that the municipal party committee secretary could be such a young person."
Pointing at Zhao Changtian, who was standing more than ten meters away and talking to Zhu Peng, Li Huanghe and others, Wu Fei sighed like his friends.
"Let's see, how will the youngest municipal party committee secretary handle such a difficult hostage-taking incident? I think that if one does not handle it properly, this lucky man who has just stepped into the position of municipal party committee secretary will probably be completely beaten. Fallen dust." As he said this, Zheng Peng stared at Zhao Changtian without blinking, as if standing there was a beautiful woman who had taken off all her clothes.
Wu Fei nodded and took over the words, "Such a critical incident is difficult to handle. Since those three desperadoes dared to do such lawless things, they must have put life and death at risk. But those guys have They had guns and explosives strapped to their bodies, and there were dozens of teachers and students around them.
Therefore, if we attack by force, it will be difficult to avoid causing huge casualties. However, if we agree to the gangster's conditions, not to mention the very bad social impact that may be caused, we are afraid that after the gangster receives the money, in order to ensure his personal safety, he will not Hostages will be released easily. "
"That's the truth. Now, it depends on the municipal party secretary's decision?" Zheng Peng responded with some excitement.
"Secretary, the bulletproof vests and woolen silk bags filled with waste paper are all ready."
"Two minutes have not passed since Zhao Changtian handed over the order to Zhu Peng. What he requested has been quickly prepared. Zhu Peng reported to Zhao Changtian nervously.
"Okay!" Zhao Changtian nodded and expressed satisfaction with Zhu Peng's high efficiency.
Then, Zhao Changtian made a move that seemed a bit strange. He raised his right hand that was clenched into a fist and waved it forward vigorously.
While Guo Donghai, Zhu Peng, Li Huanghe and others were wondering about the purpose of his move, two tall and burly young men strode over from a short distance away.
