Chapter 97 Tracking
, firepower is king
Today is a busy day.
I left for work in the morning, and then started driving from Los Angeles to Tijuana in the afternoon. By evening, I had arrived in Tijuana and received a full set of combat equipment.
Then, not long after I got the combat equipment, I called and said I had to wait for news. Within a few minutes, I immediately called and said I needed Gaoguang's support.
This extremely compact action route and extremely compressed time made Danny need Gao Guang's help. Otherwise, even if Danny was given an extra hour, he probably wouldn't need Gao Guang's help.
Now Gao Guang couldn't believe that everything happened naturally. He could only think that as John said, Danny deliberately let Patrov go. Then, because of the parking receipt he found, Danny Negotiations with Renato were completed in the shortest possible time, and people were immediately sent to Tijuana. The difference was that tracking Patlov turned into a preset ambush waiting for Patlov. It became a preset ambush.
I don’t know what to say. Gao Guang feels quite complicated right now. From a purely business perspective, Danny’s approach is to maximize profits, but when it comes to professional ethics, then Danny’s actions are a bit unethical.
"I've told you many times, for people like Danny, you have to be on your guard to avoid being betrayed by him without even knowing it..."
John was still nagging, but now Gao Guang felt that John was a little annoyed for the first time.
It wasn't until the car drove to the main road near the border checkpoint, Gao Guang turned on the intercom and started calling on Danny's frequency that John finally shut up.
"The king calls to the hounds. Please answer when you receive it. Over."
The car continued to drive forward. After ten seconds, Gao Guang took the intercom again and said: "The king is calling the hound. Please answer when you receive it. It's over."
The call continued like this, and on the seventh time, a tingling voice suddenly sounded on the intercom: "Hound received, roundabout near the Real Hotel in Tijuana, get closer to me as soon as possible, over."
"The king receives it, over."
Tracking is moving, and Gao Guang's meeting point is also moving, so after making contact by radio, Gao Guang first looked at the navigation on his phone, then checked his own position, and immediately said: "There is a roundabout in front of us... No , passed, we passed, turned back.”
The highway runs northwest and southeast. Gao Guang and the others were traveling from south to north. Now they needed to turn around and head south in the opposite direction. But the problem was that there was a wide green belt separating the two highways, so it was impossible to turn around.
John was driving now. After hearing Gao Guang's words, he calmed down and said: "Don't be anxious, you can't be anxious at this time."
John drove forward in an orderly manner, turned around at the roundabout, changed to the opposite road in an orderly manner, and then continued driving towards the place indicated by the highlight.
"The straight-line distance is two kilometers, the signal is a bit poor, and contact is lost."
Gao Guang was a little impatient, but John still said calmly: "It's normal. The electromagnetic environment in the city is too complex and there are many buildings. It's normal to lose the signal at this distance."
The car accelerated, and gradually, a call suddenly came from the intercom.
"The Hound calls the King, over."
The caller seemed extremely irritable, Gao Guang said quickly: "The king received it, it's over."
"The fox is traveling at high speed along the main line from north to south. We must catch up as soon as possible."
"The king understands, over."
Gao Guang looked at John, who exhaled and said, "Okay, it seems we are the only ones."
"What's the meaning?"
"It means that only we can help. Otherwise, why do you think the hound would take the initiative to call us? If there are many people, the hound will not call us specifically."
At this point, John suddenly frowned and said, "Something seems wrong. If Danny had planned everything in advance, the manpower shouldn't be so small."
Gao Guang said anxiously: "Don't worry about why, let's catch up quickly!"
"No, that's not the case. We are keeping the right direction now. If we go too fast, we may cause unnecessary trouble, such as serious speeding or a car accident, and then we will not be able to get there. Now we are not going to do it immediately Rushing to fight, we are in the role of pursuers, so we must be stable and ensure that we cannot be exposed. Listen, being a pursuer is not just about being fast. Being able to continue to pursue is much more important than simply being fast. "
This was probably teaching by words and deeds. John was taking the trouble to explain how to do it, and also told him why he should do it.
The speed increased a bit, but it was still within a reasonable level. Gao Guang was really anxious, but after hearing John say why, he was able to suppress his inner irritability and just let John handle everything.
At this moment, the intercom suddenly shouted again: "The hound calls the king, answer quickly, over!"
"The king receives it, over."
"The fox suddenly turned around! He was going the wrong way on the road, and I couldn't chase him! The fox was going the wrong way from south to north along the main road..."
John, who had been driving normally and smoothly, suddenly turned the steering wheel to the left and braked. He did not wait for the car to come to a complete stop. Instead, after reaching the speed limit required for the car to turn around, he turned directly into the opposite lane.
The intercom still said urgently: "The fox drove into the right lane. He is counter-tracking. We can't chase him any more. A black Toyota Sienna MPV with license plate number F55_HTT. Can you take over the tracking? Please tell me quickly if you can take over. track!"
Gao Guang stared at John with his mouth open, and John whispered: "What are you doing standing there in a daze? Tell him that we are waiting for the fox to overtake him."
Experience is particularly important at this time. If Mike was driving, he might have reached a speed of more than 100 kilometers per hour on the streets of Tijuana. He might have caught up with the hound in front, but he also lost the opportunity to track the fox, or, The fox must have discovered someone behind him.
Gao Guang picked up the walkie-talkie, and John said hurriedly: "Put it down, he can hear it, put the walkie-talkie on his lap and say, don't do anything that might expose you now!"
Putting the intercom on his lap so that it was impossible to see the angle of the intercom outside the car window, Gao Guang pressed the signal transmit button and said urgently: "King, received, we have completed the turn and are now traveling south to north. Waiting for the fox to pass by, the license plate number has been received, over.”
Somehow, Gao Guang was very nervous now, even more nervous than when he was about to break into a house where he knew there was an enemy.
"Hound received, very good, very good... Let's find a place to turn around. You are the main tracker now, and we will cooperate with you in tracking. Over."
Hound's words revealed a strong sense of joy, but Gao Guang became even more nervous. He couldn't help turning his head to look at the left window. At this time, John said: "Look ahead, don't look around, suddenly turn around and drive against the speed, and speed up." These are common techniques to get rid of being followed. Patrov may not necessarily notice that someone is following him, but we must do everything normally and just wait until he overtakes us. You don’t have to look left or right, it’s useless.”
Gao Guang looked forward, with the walkie-talkie on his lap, and then he saw a black Senna passing by from the left. The speed was not very fast.
The license plate number was correct and the model was correct. If Patrov was really in the car, he would have made a U-turn to test whether there was anyone following him.
John finally became nervous, and he trembled: "Inform the hounds that we are following."
Highlights: Their car is a Volkswagen sedan with a Tijuana license plate. It is one of the most common models on the streets of Tijuana. If it doesn't behave particularly abnormally, it will never attract anyone's attention.
Gao Guang didn't pick up the walkie-talkie, he just put it on his lap and said: "The king is calling the hounds, we are following the fox, traveling south to north, over."
Mike was in the back seat, and he suddenly said: "So we are following? Guys, this is very exciting! I have never been as exciting as today in my life!"
Not having time to pay attention to Mike, Gao Guang lowered his voice involuntarily and said to John: "Should we call Danny for help? Can we keep up with Patrov on our own?"
"It's hard to say. The best way now is to take over the tracking. Someone is waiting in front and someone is waiting in the nearby blocks. But this requires a lot of manpower and vehicles, and someone needs to coordinate and command. Only the police can do it. I think Danny Even if you want to do it, you can’t do it.”
After finishing speaking, John suddenly said: "Something's not right. If Danny had prepared in advance, he shouldn't have fallen into a situation where we needed to follow him. Now I can't quite understand this matter. He didn't Is it possible to follow Patrov?"
Gao stared intently at the car in front. There were now three cars between the Senna and them. The distance was about a hundred meters. There was no intersection ahead, but if there was an intersection to turn, it would be easy to lose them.
It was now half past nine at night, and there were still a lot of cars on the main road in Tijuana. But after a little while, at ten o'clock, the number of cars on the road began to decrease significantly, and it would be difficult to follow them like this.
In short, it was very difficult to keep track of him, but Gao Guang really didn't want to lose him in front of him.
Gao Guang said nervously: "Are you just following me?"
"Patlov will counter-follow. He is not a rookie. He will drive to a remote and deserted road later. If we continue to follow, we will be exposed, and then everything will be over, so we have to do The best thing is to report the location in time and leave the rest to luck.”
"luck?"
John nodded and said: "If you have strength, you must rely on strength. If you are not strong enough, you can only rely on luck. The hounds behind us should change paths now, predict where Patrov may go, and then wait for Patrov in front." Husband, but this is too difficult and technically impossible, so we can only rely on luck. "
Since it depends on luck, Gao Guang has some confidence because he feels that he has been lucky recently.
------Digression-----
I am confused about which process and results are important. I hesitated for a long time, so I decided to write about the process...
