Reborn American Giants

Chapter 87 Action Begins 2

In the early morning of October 24th, Underwood sat in the Oval Office and put down the phone in his hand. He had just spoken on the phone with British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher.

During the phone call, the leader of the country, the most important ally of the United States in Europe, asked Underwood whether he was prepared to take action against Grenada, a dependent country of the Commonwealth. After receiving the exact information that Underwood acknowledged the action, he said,

The United States took this decisive action only after receiving an invitation from Grenada's neighbors and out of the interest of stabilizing the regional situation in the Caribbean and the personal safety of Americans.

Mrs. Thatcher strongly demanded that the United States cancel this action and stated that as a member of the Commonwealth of Nations, the United States had no right to interfere in any of Grenada's affairs.

Underwood felt embarrassed about Mrs. Thatcher's tough stance. He only said this sentence on the phone: "Madam, I understand and agree with your request, but now it is too late and action has already been taken."

here we go."

Mrs. Thatcher didn't speak on the other end of the phone, and neither did Underwood. The leaders of the two countries fell into a "dead" silence on both ends of the phone. In the end, Underwood broke the silence.

peaceful.

"Madam, I hope you can understand the concerns and position of our US government. We only want to bring freedom to Grenada and rescue this island country from the hands of the gcist camp. We have nothing else to ask for."

Mrs. Thatcher finally spoke, "I hope everything goes as you wish."

A soft "click" sound indicated that the British Prime Minister on the other end had hung up the phone. Underwood smiled bitterly and rubbed his brow. Before the action even started, his allies had already expressed their opposition, which made Underwood feel uncomfortable.

The optimism about this operation beforehand was cast a shadow.

There was a stack of newspapers on the table. His chief of staff, Becker, had just brought it in and asked him to take a good look. On the top was a copy of that day's Los Angeles Times, which Becker had already opened.

When I opened the fourth page, half of the page was circled with a red marker, indicating that the president was asked to pay special attention to it.

Underwood stared at it, and the title at the beginning stung his eyes, "The U.S. government is preparing to take action against Grenada?" Although there was a question mark after it, after reading the whole article, this article was completely affirming that the government would take action against Grenada.

Taking action as the premise, and then proceeding to prove each item

According to reports, including the task force dispatched by the Second Fleet, the USS Independence aircraft carrier fleet supporting Lebanon changed its course and headed south, and the 82nd Airborne Division in Blackburg blocked the camp and imposed martial law. All these situations indicate that the government has completed war preparations.

The target is directly aimed at the Caribbean island country-Grenada.

It’s okay if his allies, the British, know about it. Now even vague reports have appeared in the domestic media. Although Underwood knows that in the HSD special zone, such things as confidentiality do not exist for pervasive reporters.

, However, he has already carried out the dispatch of troops to Grenada very secretly. At the National Security Council meeting, Underwood only asked to pay close attention to the situation in Grenada. The second task force dispatched was also "evacuated", and at the same time, and

Six Caribbean countries launched maritime military exercises as an excuse.

But now, the Los Angeles Times clearly confirmed the news of the government sending troops, which made Underwood feel a little angry. He summoned Bud and asked him to find out how the news was leaked, and then went to the situation room to wait for Grenada

Further news came.

In Grenada, inside St. George's Medical College, Edward frowned and looked at the sudden increase of a group of People's Revolutionary Army outside the university campus. John stood beside him with the same worried expression.

Just earlier this morning, a platoon of more than forty People's Revolutionary Army soldiers gathered outside St. George's University suddenly increased to nearly a company, and two vehicles were parked at each of the four school gates.

Instead of the usual two ferocious armored vehicles, there were only two symbolically parked at the main entrance and exit of Dongdaemun.

This kind of performance made Edward and John wonder, are these People's Revolutionary Army coming for the American students at St. George's Medical College, or is it just a normal transfer? Everything is still unknown.

"John, please contact your CIA people in Grenada and inform them of our news and see if they have any news," Edward frowned and said to John. He now only has less than six people left.

Ten employees of the defense company, and the others who were part of the last raid on the Prime Minister's Residence, except for the casualties, the rest have returned to El Salvador in accordance with Victor's order. The new recruits have not yet arrived, leaving Edward in the hands of

The manpower is a little stretched.

"Okay, I will contact my colleagues at the Grenada Station immediately," John replied. Since the last operation with the agents from the Grenada Intelligence Station, John has obviously strengthened his communication with the CIA Grenada Intelligence Station. Now he has "

"Abandoned Son", to seize every opportunity that can increase the chance of survival, John vowed that as long as he is allowed to go back alive this time, he must make the people who tricked him into dying pay the price.

"Aurelio," Edward called again to his chosen deputy who came to Grenada this time, "you arranged for people to pretend to be students and watch the movements of these soldiers at the four gates. What are their actions?

Let them inform us in time."

"Captain, you want us to pretend to be students?" Aureliano is a black man. He gestured to himself in a slightly exaggerated way, and then gestured to the young college students next to him. One side was fully armed and had been passing by for many years.

forge

The muscles on the other side were sculpted by training, and the other side was young and fair. At a glance, it was obvious that he was a student of Qingqing who had no strength to restrain a chicken. The contrast between the two sides was so strong that several team members behind Aurelho said "

They were laughing and joking.

"Parola, go ahead and pretend. Pretending to be a student is more like..."

"Banchero, why the hell don't you go? I think you look more like one."

"Hey, I want to go too, but who told me that my whole body is full of muscles? Look," Banchero teased and raised his arms, bending them hard, a large group of solid muscles bulged, and then he lowered his arms.

, patted Parola on the shoulder and said: "Who made you look so thin? You are the shortest and thinnest here. Who will go if you don't go? Maybe you can pick up a female college student and come back? Brother?"

We, right?"

"Uh...huh..." "Yeah..." Banchero's words caused a "crying of ghosts and wolves" among the team members. Several students passing by hurriedly ran a few steps, trying to get away as quickly as possible from this group of heavily armed men.

Edward looked at the teasing of the team members in front of him. He knew that this was the mercenaries' own way of relieving stress. The team members also knew that the mission did not look good. They didn't know whether they would have a chance to return.

to El Salvador.

But Edward had to interrupt his men's teasing. He said with a serious face: "Okay, shut up, Banchero, Parola and the others. Then Aurelho, you find two more people, one from the school gate."

Keep an eye on one of them, and report any disturbance immediately. That's it, I'm going to see how the contact with Agent John from CIA is going."

"Captain...Captain...God, how could you treat me like this..."

After Edward finished speaking, he left, ignoring Banchero's cries of sorrow that came from behind him. The other team members laughed at Banchero's laughter.

Now all the American international students have been gathered into two adjacent dormitories by them, and they are not allowed to go out unless necessary. For this reason, several conflicts broke out with these American students who are "unafraid of neither heaven nor earth".

John was in a dormitory on the first floor. When Edward came in, he saw him sitting in front of the radio station in a daze. He felt a little strange. He stepped forward and patted John on the shoulder. When he came back to his senses, he asked: "How are they?

How do you say that?”

John whispered: "I used the radio to contact Perry and the others. Perry told me that the government has decided to take action today. Their entire Grenada intelligence station has temporarily withdrawn from St. George City. This is the last time with us.

Contact us and he wishes us good luck."

Edward couldn't help but increase the strength in his hands, and he asked eagerly: "Did he tell you what plans your military has for these American students?"

"Yes, the operation is scheduled for five o'clock in the morning on the 25th. After the operation is successful, support troops will come to St. George's University to support us. At the same time, Perry also conveyed the order from Kelly, the head of the Latin American Intelligence Center, so that we must persist until

The arrival of reinforcements will ensure the safety of American students."

Edward let out a long breath. What he had been looking forward to for a long time finally happened. No matter good or bad, it didn't have to weigh heavily on his heart like a stone. He patted John's shoulder again and said, "Don't worry.

, there is no use worrying. In this case, now we can only increase the chance of mission success by making adequate preparations."

John nodded when he heard this. Edward was right. They were now trapped in St. George's University and had no choice but to stop them with soldiers and water.
