Chapter 994 Peaceful life in war zone

Noriega ran away?!

Everyone present was stunned when they heard this news. Except for a few officers who had entered the building, most people's mentality was similar to Carter's. They all felt that the mission had been completed for the time being and that they could switch to combat readiness and defense. As a result,

.

"Does he have another place to live? For example, his hometown or something like that?"

Someone quickly put forward their own ideas. Once someone started, there were more and more voices talking.

Some people suspect that Noriega has gone abroad, especially Cuba. I heard that he seems to have a good relationship with Castro; some people suspect that Noriega fled to the embassy area and sought political asylum; some even suspect that Noriega is hiding incognito.

When I arrived in the United States, I played "Darkness Under the Light" for everyone.

Regarding this battle, Carter had little knowledge in his previous life. During the operation, he had never been to the front line. emm, there were not many clues about the front line entering the main building. Carter did not express any opinions and just waited quietly.

The results are out.

"Issuing a reward order. If any information about Noriega's location is proven to be true, the reward will be US$1 million! In addition, the fourth battalion will surround the embassy area; the fifth battalion will cooperate with the Rangers to conduct a blanket search in the city!"

With the final word from the task force commander, Carter had to bid farewell to Rick again. He led his team into the embassy area of ​​​​Panama City and set up checkpoints on the outer streets.

Posters with Noriega's photos were put up one after another, and Carter also received a copy and distributed it to various checkpoints to compare and confirm the personnel entering and leaving the embassy area one by one.

This inspection work lasted four days.

Over the past four days, Carter's life has gradually returned to normal. Even in war zones, there are safe areas and non-safe areas. Areas close to the center and where there are heavy troop accumulations are undoubtedly safe areas.

The days here are the same as normal except for the occasional sound of "frying beans" and the slightly special work. Of course, there are also some fishermen in troubled waters these days, so I took a random guess.

The position came to the US military to ask for money, and his attitude was outstanding. It was a bet!

It doesn't matter if the information provided is wrong, but what if it is wrong?

One million dollars!

The existence of this group of people directly affected Carter. Even their four battalions responsible for surrounding the embassy area were dispatched once to conduct a search at the reported location. Naturally, nothing was found.

As the sun shines on the earth on December 24, the gunfire in the city has changed from frequent to occasional, and today, it has become sparse. Carter admitted that the Panamanian people have a strong will to resist, but the foundation is too weak!

If we were outside the city, it would be okay because there was a lot of space after all, but inside the city, those who had the guts to take up guns and aim at the US military would probably have reached the end of the week. On the contrary, outside the city, the sporadic resistance forces that frequently appeared caused the US military to appear a few more times.

The second increase in troops. Obviously, the guerrillas are somewhat psychologically harmful to the US military who are used to using artillery to clear the ground.

What North Korea, Vietnam, right?

At this time, the United States was not so optimistic that it wanted to go home for Christmas. As soon as it discovered that many guerrillas had appeared in Panama, it immediately began to increase its troops. At the same time, as the situation in Panama City stabilized, the military police also

Pulled here. The wartime order in Panama City, led by the will of the US military, is being quickly established.

"Man, here are three tortillas, three hojaldres, and six cups of coffee to go!"

Like the previous two days, Carter chose to solve the problem nearby for breakfast.

There is really no need to eat high-calorie and high-energy food like combat rations early in the morning. With the establishment of wartime order, many shops have also opened their doors. After all, life must go on.

For these small businessmen, being closed for a day may mean going hungry.

"OKOK!"

The fat shop owner didn't know much English. But he could understand the gestures. When Carter raised three fingers, he said tortillas and hojaldres. When talking about coffee, he raised six fingers with both hands.

There is still no barrier to communication!

After a while, Carter got the food he wanted. Tortillas, which are called tacos in Mexico and tortillas in Panama, are thinner and crisper than tacos. But Carter didn't like the taste very much.

, so I switched to another tortilla-based sandwich.

A sandwich, a cup of coffee, and a sunny day begins again!

"Guys, breakfast is here!"

Carrying a bag of things, I returned to the company command post. Since it was determined to be stationed here for a long time and it was unlikely that the troops would withdraw unless Noriega was found, the command post looked a lot more presentable this time. This is a place

After the original owner of the requisitioned residential house rented the house to the US military, he and his family moved to the countryside.

"Wuhu! Here we come!"

Amid cheers, several people from the company sat around and began to enjoy their own breakfast.

"Captain, how long do you think we have to stay here? Tomorrow is Christmas, maybe Noriega really isn't here?"

"Who knows, just look at the orders above. But you are right, tomorrow is Christmas, and starting tonight, you should be given access to satellite phone communications. Then give your family a call!"

Chewing food in his mouth, Carter's answer was a little unclear:

"As for tomorrow, I haven't received any activity arrangements from the battalion headquarters. If not, we will make some arrangements ourselves. Andrew, today you can go around the city and see if you can find a place selling turkeys. Is there any?

If so, buy more turkeys, we can make a fire to roast them tomorrow, it will be considered a holiday."

"Okay, I get it!"

"Only turkey? Captain."

"It would be nice to have turkey, Davy! This is a war zone!"

Before the holiday comes, it is somewhat psychologically depressing. For most soldiers, this may be the first time they spend Christmas away from their families, and in such a foreign country.

Of course, there is no shortage of condolences sent by superiors. Cigarettes, beer, chocolate candies, everything is complete. Put it all together. It will definitely be enough for a simple but not shabby Christmas dinner tomorrow!

As the commander of C Company in the heart of the safe zone, Carter really has no pressure. With their company's location, they can hold Christmas dinner with confidence and not worry about being disturbed by some guns. As long as there are no guns to disturb, there will always be

Other things bother you.

"Captain, joint meeting! I need you to come over quickly!"

Breakfast had just finished, Carter had just lit up an after-dinner cigarette, and before he had even taken a few puffs, the silence was broken by a report from Signal Corpsman David.

"What's the announcement?"

As he stood up helplessly, he took one last puff of cigarette, and while pressing the butt of the cigarette, Carter asked casually.

"Noriega has been found! He is in the embassy area where we are responsible!"

"ha?!"
