History of Hong Kong Island

Chapter 470
When He Dingxian arrived at the scene, the airport had been blocked by more than [-] police officers. Kowloon District Senior Assistant Director Wang Zhe was in charge, and [-] police officers were holding guns in both hands, aiming at the entrance and exit in front of the apron.

A Boeing parlor was parked alone on the berth, the front cabin door had been opened, and a British police superintendent was negotiating with the criminals.

"He sir."

Inspector Huo Qilin of Kowloon Tong, wearing a white shirt, strode forward: "There were six robbers on the plane, armed with AK rifles, holding a total of 67 hostages."

"This flight was diverted from the Philippines to Hong Kong Island. Among the 67 people, 35 were Chinese, and the remaining 19 were British."

"There are thirteen foreigners, including the United States, France, Singapore, and the Philippines."

He Dingxian nodded, glanced around the scene, his first thought was not how to solve the criminals, but how to use this incident to achieve political goals.

First, the hijacking incident was an international incident with huge political impact. Second, it happened suddenly. The military did not have the order of the ancestors, and the garrison could not be dispatched. Third, the plane landed in the Kowloon area, and the overall responsibility should be assigned to Kowloon.

Although the military has always been the actual controller, monitoring and leading this incident, as long as the Hong Kong government does not enter a state of emergency, the military can only provide intelligence support and cannot move troops out of the station.

The Hong Kong government mobilized the garrison for a hijacking incident, which would appear to be a big fanfare and lack of police force.

It seems that this incident can easily achieve the political goal of establishing special forces. God is indeed the best director. An unexpected hijacking incident sounded the clarion call for the police force's counterattack.

It's not that the police force has to rely on coincidence to win a city, but that the police force is responsible for public security and handling emergencies. Under the Cold War situation, the reason why the police force has high power is that the international situation is not optimistic.

If the hijacking incident does not happen, there will still be other activities, prompting the police to strengthen their equipment and increase their force, which has become a reason for the police establishment.Historically, it was on March 71, 3 that a plane of Philippine National Airways was hijacked and landed on Hong Kong Island. Due to insufficient handling power, the Hong Kong police finally decided to set up a special force and a mobile force "special task company". Tiger Team is the title given by the people.

He Dingxian just wants to promote the establishment of the special mission company in advance, and hold a new gun in his hand before the establishment of ICAC!
Unexpectedly, reasons, opportunities, and events all collided!
He secretly thought of good luck in his heart. Sure enough, those who help themselves are helped by God. Sometimes it takes a little luck to get things done. If you follow the right path, you will get twice the result with half the effort.
"Where's Chief Inspector Hua of the Kowloon District?" He turned his eyes around, stared at Huo Qilin and said, "The incident happened in the Kowloon District, and the heads of all departments should be in place as soon as possible. If anything goes wrong, I can't even protect you guys." !"

Huo Qilin felt guilty in his heart, and when he heard the officer's scolding, he immediately saluted in a panic, and stomped his feet: "Sir Lei is on his way here."

"Humph."

He Dingxian snorted coldly, turned around and waved to Chen Zichao, and Chen Zichao hurried forward: "He sir, the snipers have been arranged, and the three assault teams have been formed, and they can start operations at any time."

"Wait for my news."

"This time we have to rely on the Serious Crime Squad." He Dingxian patted Chen Zichao on the shoulder and stayed in Taiguan all the time, just to hold the elite soldiers in his hands and be able to use them at critical moments.

"Yes, sir!"

Chen Zichao stood at attention and saluted.

Huo Qilin bowed and followed humbly.

"Wang sir."

He Dingxian came to shake hands with the leader of the Kowloon District.

When Wang Zhe saw that he arrived with the serious crime team, his expression was much satisfied, but his eyes were a bit complicated, and he said straightforwardly: "I'll leave the scene to you, can it be done in an hour?"

"can."

He Dingxian pondered for two seconds, and immediately agreed, also surprised at Wang Zhe's straightforwardness.

As everyone knows, Wang Zhe is also politically savvy, and has already linked the movements of the Chinese police officers with the hijacking incident. Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence?Xie Ling still needs to be Ling's person, and it would be best to entrust the action to him.

"Row."

"From now on, the on-site command will be handed over to Sir He, and all departments will report directly to Sir He." Wang Zhe didn't want to be responsible for this matter, and publicly announced to the people present: "The highest goal of everything is to rescue the hostages!"

"Right now, the international community is paying close attention to this incident, and the outcome of the case is related to the reputation of the whole of Hong Kong."

Although the news has not yet appeared in the newspapers and citizens have not received the news, the flight information is publicly available internationally, and the hijacking incident has already spread to all countries.The gate of Kai Tak Airport has been blocked by a large number of TV, newspaper, and radio reporters, and more than a hundred police officers in uniform have been deployed just to maintain the cordon.

"Yes, sir!"

He Dingxian stood at attention very formally and saluted, watched Wang Zhe go to a corner and sat down on a chair, then turned to look at the British police superintendent who was negotiating with the robbers in front of him: "Tell me about the situation inside the plane in detail."

"There are 60 seats in the plane, [-] passengers, and seven crew members, including two American pilots." The superintendent was wearing a uniform, white skin, bearded, and his eyes were bright, talking eloquently Said: "The six robbers are all American. The leader of the bandit has a tattoo on his neck. It has been confirmed as the number of the special forces."

"When I was on the plane, I saw them communicate with military gestures. There is a high probability that the robbers have served in the military and are an established special team."

He Dingxian lit a cigarette and stood in the circle of police officers with a solemn expression. He already knew that today would be a bloody battle.This may also be the strongest and most capable villain that the serious crime team has faced since its establishment.

"He sir."

"coffee."

A British female inspector, wearing a hip skirt, handed over a cup of iced coffee.

When He Dingxian saw the coffee cup, his pupils were full of surprise, but all the ghost police officers turned a blind eye to it and took it for granted, which shows the skillful style of the ghosts.

Seeing this, He Dingxian also took the coffee cup, took a big sip, returned it to the female inspector, and signaled the superintendent to continue.

The superintendent said: "The robbers offered a ransom of 50 US dollars, and filled up the plane with fuel, and demanded that all be collected within two hours, and a hostage would be killed 10 minutes later."

"The key point is that the robbers will use the on-board radio, and their shouts can be intercepted by civilian radios. It is very likely that the conditions have already been learned by the outside world."

This is a subtle reminder to him to pay attention to public opinion. It can be seen that there are smart people among the robbers who know how to use public channels to exert pressure on the Hong Kong government.The frequent occurrence of KB operations during the Cold War was due to the tension in the world structure, and there were political goals behind many activities;The third is that the current anti-terrorism system is not perfect, causing many activities to have a diffusion effect. Once it happens in one area, it may happen in another area.
However, the Philippines is indeed a country with extremely poor law and order. Not only is the political situation chaotic, but also bandits are rampant.There have been no less than ten hijackings in history, and it is the country with the most hijackings in Asia. There were two in 71, and the one on Hong Kong Island was just an appetizer.

"It is absolutely impossible for the police on Hong Kong Island to bow to criminals." He Dingxian squeezed a cigarette and looked at the Boeing plane at the door through the glass: "Let the airport send a refueling truck first to refuel the Boeing plane, and replace all the refueling staff with us." people."

"Fire unicorn."

"Eh."

"He sir." Huo Qilin hurriedly said.

"You are in charge of fueling the truck."

Huo Qilin secretly thought that he was going to die, and quickly agreed: "Yes!"

"Sir!"

He Dingxian beckoned to the director of the airport, pointed to the plane and said, "Can you identify what type of plane this is, and find one for me, or draw a blueprint of the cabin."

"There are backups in the cabin." The supervisor hurriedly said: "All aircraft that will land on Hong Kong Island or transit need to submit a copy of the cockpit layout and design drawings. One is in the service department and the other is in the maintenance department."

"hurry up."

He Dingxian drove them away with a wave of his hand, and then called an airline manager: "Are there still helicopters at the airport?"

"There are three."

"Requisitioned." He Dingxian winked at Chen Zichao, and Chen Zichao handed over the walkie-talkie to Li Wenbin, asking Li Wenbin to lead a team to pick up the helicopter.

5 minute later.

He Dingxian pasted a blueprint of a Boeing airplane on the whiteboard, and asked the three teams of the serious crime team to gather for a meeting. He drew a red cross on the hatch of the airplane blueprint, and said: "The interior space of the airplane is closed, the aisle is narrow, and the windows are closed. It is not big, lacks external vision, and has a large blind spot."

"According to the sniper's observation, there is at least one robber guarding the cabin door, responsible for observing the outside world."

"There are five people left, one is at the back of the cabin, and the other is guarding the rear safety door." He drew two crosses on the drawing again: "The remaining three people move along the aisle and guard the hostages."

"The robber had the largest blind spot at the tail of the plane, and the remaining blind spot was in the sky."

All doors and windows of the aircraft have emergency switches on the outside, which cannot be opened or closed during high-altitude flight or affected by air pressure, but it is absolutely possible on the apron.

"Team A, use the side view of the refueling truck to block the view, take the pickup truck to the tail cabin of the plane, and rush through the front door along the bottom of the plane!" He Dingxian has a serious expression and tough tactics: "Team B, take a helicopter to search for the plane above the plane. Descend, open the rear hatch and break through.”

"Team C is on standby at the boarding gate. If the breakthrough does not go well, press them all up. Be sure to kill all the gangsters."

Thirty members of the serious crime team wore action suits, held firearms, and squatted on the ground with solemn expressions.Since he was on duty, he has not lost money and handled many cases, but this is the first time to carry out anti-terrorism activities in a small space. This is a cross-age challenge for the serious crime team.

He Dingxian looked at the crowd and reminded: "This operation is very dangerous. The police force has borrowed bulletproof vests, bulletproof helmets and sights from the military for you. A total of 67 people were killed on board. I don't ask you to bring back how many people."

"I only have one request, not one more life on board!"

Chen Zichao, Li Wenbin and other [-] serious crime team police officers shouted in unison: "Yes, sir!"

The sound spread throughout the station, and all the police officers looked sideways, knowing that the Chinese police officers were about to start an operation.

It is not that there are elite squads with better equipment and higher quality than the serious crime team among the ghost police officers, but obviously the ghost police officers will not risk their lives to gamble on the reputation of the city, and the hard work that requires their lives has always been done by the Chinese.

"In 2 minutes, all the staff will change their equipment. Groups A and C will go to the predetermined point and get ready. Group B will stay for 5 minutes and learn how to open the hatch." After He Dingxian finished speaking, the police officers moved Get up, put on the equipment neatly for a while, and then go to the battlefield.
