Chapter 2404 Lin Feng Is Here

Killing hostages!

After Basayev injured the thighs of seven hostages and let them go, Basayev killed another hostage. Seeing the hostages torn into pieces in the flames, with no bones left, all the reporters who were watching and wanted to interview were stunned.

These reporters came today, and they naturally knew the dangers. But they didn't think they would be in real danger. After all, this is not Baghdad, this is not Afghanistan, there is only a group of Chechen terrorists, and the target of these Chechen terrorists is the Russian government, not these reporters. So they are very relieved. But at this moment, seeing a person being blown to pieces in front of them, and the blood on his body splashed directly on them, at this moment, many reporters were scared. They were terrified and retreated.

At this moment, the whole world was quiet. All mankind was shocked by the bloody incident that happened under their noses. It turned out that people were blown up like this, so tragic and so terrifying. Everyone was silent, but the next moment, most people with conscience were angry, angry at the behavior of the Chechen terrorists.

The most angry was naturally the Russian government. Putin did not expect that the damn Chechen terrorists would dare to kill the hostages like this. This exceeded his bottom line.

"Notify the special forces and be ready to attack at any time!" Putin said coldly. He wanted to kill all these terrorists without leaving any alive.

"Yes." Medvedev was also angry. He was angry at the inhumane behavior of these Chechen terrorists. But he also knew in his heart that the Chechen terrorists did this, which gave the Russian military an opportunity to take action. Otherwise, the Russian side would continue to stalemate.

"Basayev, you are going too far!" the leader exclaimed. Basayev's behavior was a provocation to the Russian government, which would give the Russian government an excuse to take action. At that time, they really could only take the last step and blow up the entire Moscow TV Tower. Although this would make Russia feel painful, their goal could not be achieved.

"Hmph, if the Russian military dares to attack, we will give them a good look. Hehe, I have buried double the bombs at the door. It will definitely give these damn Russian military a surprise." Basayev laughed wildly.

"But in this case, you guys will be sacrificed to pay tribute to today's madness!" Basayev ordered people to pull up the four hostages including Lin Chiling.

Lin Chiling and the other four hostages suddenly changed color. They have already experienced Basayev's madness. If they are caught by Basayev, they will die.

"Hey, this girl is pretty good. But I seem to have seen her somewhere!" Basayev stared at Lin Chiling with a dazed look.

Lin Chiling snorted coldly,

and didn't say anything. She was naturally afraid of death, but she didn't know if it would be useful for her to bring up Lin Feng's title. If it didn't work, it would put Lin Feng in danger, and even these bandits would take the opportunity to make some excessive demands, which would be bad. So, Lin Chiling has accepted her fate at this moment.

Boss, we'll see you in the next life. ——Lin Chiling closed her eyes, waiting for the last moment of her life.

Basayev saw that Lin Chiling had no fear at all, and suddenly he was bored. After cursing in Chechen slang, he ordered people to turn on the camera and broadcast the upcoming beheading operation live to the world.

"Look at the TV, look at the TV, the Chechen terrorists are broadcasting live!" Immediately, a reporter reacted and shouted.

This is the first time in the history that terrorists broadcast live to the world. Naturally, it caused a global sensation and everyone's curiosity. They all wanted to know what the Chechen terrorists wanted to do.

"Let the special forces not attack for the time being! Let's see what these damn terrorists have to say first." Putin stopped the special forces who were about to take action.

"Hello, millions of viewers around the world. I am Basayev from the Chechen National Army!" Basayev showed his appearance without hesitation. He was a standard Caucasian man with high cheekbones, a rough face, and a strong body. "We came here today, not wanting to cause any casualties or bring any misfortune. We have only one goal, to make Russia withdraw its troops from our country and to make Russia recognize the independence of Chechnya. As long as Russia agrees to our request, we will immediately surrender unconditionally!" Basayev said loudly.

Uproar! Many reporters exclaimed. No one expected that the Chechen terrorists would actually put forward such a condition this time. As long as Russia agreed to withdraw its troops from Chechnya and declare Chechnya independent, they would all surrender and let Russia manipulate them. This is something no one expected. This is equivalent to a checkmate, a checkmate of Russia. A checkmate of Putin.

"Hehe, it seems that the Russian government is not prepared to give me an answer. So, now I declare that from now on, we will execute 5 people every 10 minutes. One person has died just now, and now we will execute four more to express our determination on this matter. Of course, if the Russian authorities recognize Chechnya's independence and withdraw their troops completely, all of us will still be disposed of by Russia and be responsible for all our actions." Basayev grinned.

Don’t be fooled by Basayev’s ferocious appearance, simple mind and strong limbs, but in fact, Basayev is very cunning and is known as the Caucasian jackal in Chechnya. In fact, before coming here today, they knew that this terrorist attack would be difficult to succeed. Putin is in power in the current Russian government, and Putin is not the weak Yeltsin. Planning a terrorist attack back then could make Yeltsin withdraw his troops, but Putin could never withdraw his troops from Chechnya. And the reason why they still do this is only for one thing - to tell Russia the determination of all Chechens. As long as they are not independent, they will not stop the only terrorist attacks they can do. They want Russia to feel that continuing to occupy Chechnya is absolutely the most wrong thing.

"I don't know who the four people behind me are, but no matter who they are, unfortunately, they will pay the price of their lives for Russia's hesitation and stupidity. President Putin, I hope you can give us an answer as soon as possible. Also, if you want to send troops to attack, please attack. We have already given up, but this Moscow TV Tower and all the hostages here will become the sacrifices of our Chechen independence!" Basayev smiled grimly and stepped aside, revealing the four people behind him.

All the reporters sighed. At this time, it would be too late for Russia to attack, unless they immediately withdrew their troops from Chechnya and declared Chechnya independent at the same time. But obviously, in the eyes of these reporters, this is absolutely impossible. The Putin government would never do such a thing, let alone compromise. Absolutely impossible.

Hey, I don't know which four unlucky guys they are! ——All the reporters looked over. Two men and two women, the genders are well matched, and there is also a beauty among them, an Asian beauty.

Hey! All the reporters called out softly. This Asian beauty looks so familiar, really familiar! All the reporters felt that the last Asian beauty on TV looked familiar. They should definitely know her, but they suddenly couldn't remember her.

Who is this woman? Is she a star? Not really. Her temperament is definitely not that of a star. Instead, she looks like a business tycoon. But I've never heard of any company with such a young and beautiful woman. Is she a socialite? No, not really. Looking at her posture and demeanor, she doesn't look like a socialite. Instead, she looks like a secretary! Yes, a secretary! Only a secretary would lean forward slightly like this, ready to take orders at any time.

Secretary? !!! ! ! That's right, she is Lin Feng's secretary - Lin Chiling! At this moment, some reporters finally remembered who this person was on TV.

Lin Chiling? What! Lin Feng's secretary, Lin Chiling! After some reporters screamed, other reporters also reacted. Indeed, isn't this Lin Feng's secretary Lin Chiling? How could Lin Feng's secretary be here? How could she become a hostage of Chechen terrorists, and a hostage who was about to be beheaded for demonstration. At this moment, all the reporters were dizzy.

If Lin Chiling was beheaded by Chechen bandits, what would Lin Feng do? What would he do? All the reporters could imagine Lin Feng's anger just by thinking about Lin Feng's protection of Avril and others. If Lin Chiling was really beheaded here, Lin Feng would definitely destroy these Chechen bandits, definitely!

Oh my God, oh my God, oh my God! Many reporters shouted "Oh my God" three times in a row. They finally waited for the plot they wanted most. They finally waited for it. Now, they believe that there will definitely be countless wonderful content to write. Lin Feng, this super-protective, super-rich, super-powerful super-rich, he will definitely not sit and watch Lin Chiling being beheaded here. He will definitely show up, he will definitely show up.

As long as Lin Feng shows up, this matter will be interesting. It will be wonderful! All reporters immediately began to search for Lin Feng's figure near the Moscow TV Tower. Lin Feng was in Moscow, and his secretary was in trouble. If it were someone else, they might not show up and wait for the Russian government to solve it, but Lin Feng would not, he would definitely show up, he would definitely show up! All reporters had absolute confidence in Lin Feng and believed that he would definitely show up.

As expected, under the gaze of all reporters, Lin Feng walked down from a black "Shenlong V" car, step by step, slowly and resolutely.

Here, Lin Feng is here! ——The scene was boiling. If it weren't for the fact that this was a matter of life and death and a very serious matter, I'm afraid that there would be reporters applauding. They welcomed Lin Feng's arrival.

Lin Feng walked closer step by step, under the attention and expectation of everyone.

"Sir, this place has been under martial law, you can't go in." An officer stopped Lin Feng.

"This person on TV is my woman, she is about to be beheaded, you won't let me in?" Lin Feng asked coldly.

"This..." The officer hesitated for a while. It seemed unreasonable not to let someone else's woman go in when she was about to be beheaded. But it's useless for you to go in, and you are very likely to be shot by Chechen terrorists.

"Sir, you can't go in. This is for your safety. Please leave the matter about your wife to us!" said the officer.

"Leave it to you? I will have to watch helplessly as she is beheaded by these terrorists." Lin Feng glared, "It is because of your incompetence that my woman was implicated here and held hostage by terrorists. Now you are going to use my woman's life to compensate for your incompetence. Don't you think you are shameless!"

"Sir, you are too presumptuous. This is not what we want, these damn terrorists..." The officer was choked by Lin Feng and couldn't speak. He was angry and embarrassed, but he could do nothing. Because Lin Feng's words were true and there was nothing wrong.

"So, get out of my way. Only I can save my woman." Lin Feng walked in with his head held high.

"Sir, you can't go in!" The officer wanted to stop Lin Feng, but at this moment someone rushed over and said a few words in the officer's ear. The officer immediately changed color and dared not stop Lin Feng again.

It turned out to be his woman, it turned out to be his woman. This is trouble, this is trouble! ——The officer murmured. He didn't expect that the Asian man in front of him was actually the most popular and powerful figure on the earth today. He didn't expect that his woman would become a hostage held by the Chechen terrorists this time, and was about to be beheaded. What would happen if his woman was beheaded here?

The officer couldn't believe it.

"President, what should I do now?" Medvedev also had a headache. When he saw Lin Chiling appear on TV, he knew it was bad. Lin Feng is a friend of Russia, a friend that President Putin wants to make friends with. If Lin Feng's woman dies here, Lin Feng will definitely not let it go. Who knows what crazy things he will do then. And he is worried that Lin Feng will vent his anger on the Russian government. If that happens, although the Russian government is not afraid of Lin Feng, it is not a good thing to offend a super rich man out of thin air. Especially Russia is currently eager to revitalize the economy, and if it wants to revitalize the economy, Lin Feng is the best partner.

But unfortunately, Lin Feng's woman has become a hostage. Isn't this fate playing tricks on people! This is too tragic.

"Haha, this may be a good thing, isn't it!" Putin suddenly smiled.

"Good thing!" Medvedev was stunned.

"Yes, this time the damn Chechen bandit army's plan is too careful. If we force the attack, I'm afraid all the hostages will die. Then, we will have to bear this bad reputation again. But now Lin Feng has appeared, he will never allow his woman to die, so he will definitely try his best. Then, no matter what happens, we can put all the blame on Lin Feng. No, we don't have to put it on him at all, we just need to admit all the crimes to ourselves, and let some media mention that the cause of all the hostages' deaths was due to Lin Feng's actions, that's enough. At that time, we will not bear the bad reputation of causing all the hostages to die. Moreover, we can make friends with Lin Feng afterwards and help him deal with Chechnya, which is really killing three birds with one stone." Putin smiled slightly.

Medvedev was stunned when he heard this. Although this is good, it seems a bit too... too...

"Too despicable, isn't it!" Putin sighed, "In the face of national interests, I can do anything despicable. As long as it can revitalize Russia, I am willing to give everything, even my life, or even my reputation." Putin said with a fist.

"Mr. President, I am also willing to give everything for you!" Medvedev shouted.

Putin sighed and looked at the TV screen. What would Lin Feng do at this moment?

What would Lin Feng do? Everyone looked at Lin Feng. Everyone wanted to know what Lin Feng would do in this situation.

At this moment, Lin Feng walked towards the Moscow TV Tower step by step. Step by step. In his mind, relevant information about the Chechen War kept rolling.

In 1991, after the "disintegration of the Soviet Union", the "Islamic national separatist forces" in Chechnya, Russia, took advantage of the turbulent Soviet political situation and the central government's inability to take care of remote areas, and began to gradually seek independence. Chechen War In October of this year, Dudayev, a retired general who was awarded the title of Soviet Hero in the Afghan War, became the first president of the Chechen Republic. As soon as he came to power, he publicly declared Chechnya's independence and established the first regular force in Chechnya, the National Guard, with a total of nearly 60,000 people. Seeing that Chechnya had become an independent country that openly opposed the central government, it became a major concern for the Russian Federation. In December 1994, the Russian army entered Chechnya in three directions to fight against the Chechen separatist forces. Since then, the "Chechen War" has begun.

In August 1990, Yeltsin, who had just been elected Chairman of the Supreme Soviet of the Russian Federation, came to the Tatarstan Autonomous Republic of the Russian Federation for inspection. There, he gave a speech encouraging Tatarstan to "strive for independence as much as possible." This was actually an attempt to secretly undermine Gorbachev's efforts to conclude a new alliance treaty through the hands of local leaders. Yeltsin once publicly incited: "Take as much sovereignty as the local governments can take!" Against this background, although the Russian Federation at that time still insisted on the principle of maintaining Chechnya's sovereignty, its specific implementation was very weak, and it could even be said to be adding fuel to the fire. In the negotiations with the separatist forces, the federal government compromised blindly: it recognized Dudayev's presidential status; unfrozen Chechen bank accounts so that pensions could be transferred; Chechnya also gained the right to issue passports to its citizens; in May 1992, Grachov even ordered half (actually 95%) of the weapons in the North Caucasus Military District to be transferred to the Chechen armed forces, including the most advanced T-80 tanks. On May 25, 1992, Dudayev and Russian Federation representative Lieutenant General Strogov signed the "Treaty on the Withdrawal of Troops and the Distribution of Property between the Chechen Republic and the Russian Federation", according to which all federal administrative agencies withdrew from Chechnya.

Russia has fully recognized Chechnya's independence, except in name. Chechnya has also gained de facto independent state status. However, due to the primitive social system of the Chechen nation, a state system in the modern sense has not been truly established here, let alone a "modern democratic state." The rule of religious and national extremism makes it look more like the Taliban system. In Afghanistan, ethnic cleansing forced most non-Chechen ethnic groups to flee. The land, which is smaller than the area of ​​​​Beijing, is actually divided by warlords and is full of factions. Since the Chechen nation does not engage in production and advocates force, its criminal activities in surrounding areas have never stopped: forging money orders, counterfeiting semi-official currency, stealing petroleum products, robbing passing trains, and taking hostages for ransom. It is the main source of funding for Chechnya. In other words, Chechnya’s de facto independence has not stopped Russia’s interests from suffering losses.

On the other hand, Russia's domestic political situation has gradually stabilized after 1992. At the same time, in order to restore the national economy, the issue of oil exports has become extremely important. Chechnya is both an oil production area and a channel. At the same time, Chechen separatist forces also threaten the entire country. Energy strategic layout in the Caucasus region. Against this background, in December 1994, Russian troops marched into Chechnya in three groups. At that time, Defense Minister Grachev said confidently: "With only one airborne battalion, Grozny can be captured in a few days."

This confidence ultimately proved to be groundless. Several years of turmoil greatly damaged the combat effectiveness of the Russian army. A series of tactical mistakes from high-level to grassroots caused heavy losses to the Russian army. Within 12 months, thousands of officers and soldiers and More than 20,000 civilians died in the fighting. On the other hand, the Chechen issue has always been cast in the shadow of Western countries - the United States is considering consolidating global hegemony, while Western Europe has historically been wary of Russia. Specifically, in addition to secretly funding Chechen illegal armed forces and putting pressure on the Russian government in diplomatic situations, the low oil price policy led by the United States that began during the Cold War is still continuing. In the past, it was long-term low oil prices that destroyed the Soviet Union. The balance of payments exacerbated inflation in its domestic market, eventually leading to the disintegration of the alliance.

Similarly, the dying Russian economy, which had already been tortured by "shock therapy", began to collapse under the pressure of low oil prices, and the Chechen war will inevitably be affected - the hematopoietic function is depleted, so it is obviously necessary to let a wound continue to bleed. unacceptable. In the end, although the Chechen illegal armed forces were severely damaged and Dudayev himself was killed, the Russian army still fought hard for a year and returned without success. From a macro perspective, the second Chechen War is still determined by the factor of energy: First, Russia’s security demands around oil production and exports have not changed; second, because at the end of the last century, the United States began to frequently intervene in the Middle East and China in order to combat the euro. Asian affairs have led to turmoil in the above-mentioned regions, and national oil prices have risen rapidly. Against this background, Russia, which relies on energy as its main export commodity, has been able to recover. Since the Kosovo War, rifts have gradually emerged between the United States and Europe. At the same time, the turmoil in the Middle East has made Western Europe began to seek help from the Russians on energy issues, and Russia's diplomatic space began to increase. In this general environment, in August 1999, Russia seized the trigger of the Chechen rebels' invasion of the neighboring Republic of Dagestan and launched the Second Chechen War. In early February 2000, the Russian army finally killed about 10,000 rebels at the cost of 1,173 officers and soldiers, restored control of the Chechnya region, and achieved a complete victory in the war.

However, since then, terrorist activities in Chechnya have also begun, and they have increased year by year.

"Basayev, someone is coming over." The leader hidden behind frowned and said.

boss! Lin Chiling was on a high building and saw Lin Feng from a distance. She exclaimed and tears immediately flowed down her face.

Why did he come? He shouldn't have come!
