Chapter 1,312 Lighting the Powder Keg

Fifty-three minutes after the death of the Colombian president, the first report about the incident appeared in the "Washington Post." Seven minutes later, according to the first-hand information provided by the staff of the New Zealand Embassy in Colombia, the media of Futureman Group The incident was also quickly reported. I fell in love with Lewen Novel Network WWW. LWXS520. COM

The contents of the two reports are quite different. The United States and New Zealand have pointed their fingers at each other, and their arguments are justified.

People with a little foresight have already smelled something unusual.

A public opinion war across the Pacific has quietly begun.

Regarding the groundless and speculative reports in the US media, Xinguo immediately said that we are also victims and we will not bear the blame!

However, if the United States is willing to suffer any loss, of course it immediately said that if you don't take the blame, don't leave it to us...**** Continue!

The intelligence officers of both countries did not stop talking.

The CIA people first obtained the authorization from the Colombian government, and swaggered to the scene to give perjury... Oh no, collect evidence. The Ghost Agents were not idle either. Although they did not receive official authorization from Colombia, they obviously had no intention of submitting a written application.

New evidence continued to emerge, and for a while the cause of Juan's death became confusing.

It was not until three days later that Agent Braddock's body was found by Ghost agents in an apartment not far from the incident, and it was confirmed that the cause of death was starvation. In addition, the Ghost agents also found API armor-piercing incendiary bombs suitable for Barrett sniper rifles in this apartment. The same bullets were also found in the clock tower, and this was personally disclosed to the media by CIA personnel. of.

Who actually kidnapped the CIA agent remains a mystery.

But it doesn't matter. With the tools of the crime and the missing CIA agent being discovered at the same time, the United States has gradually been at a disadvantage in this war of public opinion. Maybe it won’t be long before the media owned by the Future People Group can put this shit basin on the head of the United States in front of the melon-eating people around the world.

However, just as the war of words between New Zealand and the United States had been going on for nearly a week, another major event happened that shocked the world.

After the 16-year ceasefire agreement, the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC), which was originally in decline, suddenly updated a video of about two minutes on its official website.

At first, everyone thought that Gewu, who was not doing his job properly, put out an advertisement for his drugs and hostages.

However, after clicking on the video and watching it, everyone began to realize that what the hell was this advertisement, it was simply a declaration of war!

In the video, the current leader of FOV, Tymoshenko Jimenez, stood up.

I saw this old man who was over 70 years old, dressed in military uniform, with a cigar in his mouth and an AK-47 on his shoulder. Facing the eyes of the audience from all over the world, especially the United States, he said in an awesome voice.

"Juan's death is a conspiracy by the CIA, an American conspiracy, and a conspiracy from the sinful capitalist world."

"I have said a long time ago that Americans are not reliable. They are all liars and hypocrites. However, Mr. Juan obviously did not trust me. Very well, he has now paid a heavy price for his wrong choice."

"The people of Colombia will be truly free and I will take action to prove that I am not joking."

After leaving these words, Jimenez loaded the rifle with a click, and the video was interrupted.

To be honest, these words do sound quite exciting.

It's just that when the words "freedom" and "democracy" are spoken from the mouth of a drug lord, it always feels weird...

…

This video was posted on the official website half an hour after the FARC attacked the Pamplona area on the border between Colombia and Venezuela. The cunning Jimenez fought undeclared war against the government forces at the most chaotic moment in Colombia. .

Pamplona is just a small town, but its location determines its importance.

FARC's military power is concentrated in the tropical jungle east of the Andes, and Pamplona is such a gateway connecting the east and west of the mountains. Not only that, to the north of Pamplona is Cúcuta, the capital of Colombia’s Santander Province, an economically important town located on the border.

If Cúcuta is controlled, the FARC can receive a steady stream of support from Venezuela and at the same time severely dampen the morale of the government forces.

When guerrillas all over the mountains and plains rushed out of the forest, and the screams of mortars pierced the silent night sky, most civilians in Pamplona were still asleep. When the sound of gunfire and the explosion of fire outside the window woke people up from their sleep, almost everyone thought they were dreaming.

Until guerrilla soldiers wearing digital camouflage jackets marched through the streets in formation, army green trucks drove towards the city center square one after another, propagandists' broadcasts rang in the streets and alleys of the town, and masked soldiers While searching for hidden government officials and government soldiers from house to house, everyone suddenly realized that a war had broken out.

The fourth mountain brigade of the FARC was responsible for the attack on Pamplona.

In less than a quarter of an hour, they broke down the temporary defense lines deployed by the local militia and police, and controlled the entire area from the center of the town to the suburbs.

Half an hour after the war broke out, the Colombian government army also responded quickly. Two mechanized infantry brigades set off from the military base on the Colombian border and quickly rushed to Pamplona. At the same time, the US military stationed at the Bukaramanga military base also sent a reconnaissance company to the FARC-controlled area.

However, because Pamplona is located in a mountainous area, the terrain is rugged, the road conditions are very poor, and it is late at night, the Colombian army itself is not very good at fighting, and a group of drug lords can fight them with mixed results. When the two government infantry brigades arrived on the outskirts of Pamplona, ​​it was already four hours later.

Four hours was enough for the rebels to do a lot.

Temporary bunkers have been built, and the FARC has hidden military supplies in civilian houses and deployed machine gun fire points along the buildings outside the town.

Because the civilians in the town have not yet evacuated, the hostile government forces were unable to use supporting firepower to bomb the rebels in Pamplona. Even the US military aircraft only came here for two rounds before flying away. .

The two sides faced off in the suburbs for an hour. It was not until dawn that the top government troops surrounding Pamplona received orders to launch an attack on Pamplona and crush the rebels.

However, when the government armored vehicles drove into the town, the government soldiers discovered that their nightmare had just begun.

The RPG's rocket launcher waved towards the armored vehicle as if it was free of charge.

In order to win by any means necessary, these FARC talents did not have so many scruples. They were very happy with all kinds of mortars and grenades, which caused the Colombian soldiers to run away with their heads in their hands. The brutal street fighting lasted for nearly two hours. After leaving behind hundreds of corpses and numerous armored vehicle wreckage, government soldiers with serious casualties had to be forced to withdraw from the town.

The top military officials called the Colombian Presidential Palace and asked the Presidential Palace for an idea whether to ask for reinforcements from the US military and send additional special forces, or to use heavy firepower weapons against the rebels in the town... In short, it is not possible to continue with the current strategy. These FARC are obviously not a group of stragglers, but elites supported by foreign forces.

But where does the Colombian government have any ideas?

The president is dead, and Congress is busy wrangling, so how can it have time to care about you?

While the two sides were in a stalemate in the Pamplona area, a small group of FARC guerrillas quietly moved out and opened a guerrilla front along the Andes Mountains, heading towards Colombia's most prosperous west coast...
