Chapter 15: Turmoil
The sudden explosion made the demonstration completely out of control. As the continuous explosions continued to come from the next block, Yang Buyu concluded that it was the result of the explosives on the other people's bodies being detonated.
This ripple effect led to militants taking advantage of the opportunity to snatch weapons from nearby government forces, forcing the soldiers to shoot into the crowd.
Bang bang bang......
Suddenly, gunshots rang out, and mourning was everywhere. It was only then that people suddenly discovered that these armies were really capable of shooting.
"Run, run, everyone......"
"Fight with them...... Overthrowing the Carzafil ...... Establishment of a democratic regime ......"
............
The people of Lbia, who were scattered everywhere, divided into two parts with different shouts. Some of them are scurrying around and taking refuge in the buildings on either side, while others are led by people who have appeared out of nowhere to attack government buildings. And most of these people have guns in their hands, and they are all brand new AK47s.
The firepower of the two sides suffered more than ordinary people, and at this moment a large number of civilians have been accidentally injured by bullets and fell in pools of blood.
The wails on the ground, the frightened screams of women, the cries of children at a loss, the sound of gunshots, and explosions all intertwined to make this central street instantly a living purgatory.
At this time, Yang Buxing had already dragged the two mercenary companions back to the building to meet Yao Bing Xiaofan.
"Don't be hungry, what's going on?"
It turned out that these two people were Shanshu and the F-Lubin man named Lute.
"Damn, we've all been lied to, the phone my employer gave us was actually a modified bomb. Don't let me run into that bastard again. Otherwise, Lao Tzu would have peeled his skin ......"
Yao Bing, who gritted his teeth, snatched the conversation, but before he finished speaking, he slapped his palm on the wall and shouted that it was not good.
"That's not to say that my brother Yamamoto also has explosives on him, no! I'm going to find him!"
Shanshu turned around and wanted to run outside, but he was pulled by Yang Buying.
"Yamamoto, don't go, it's too late. There were so many explosions just in the next neighborhood......"
So what the dense explosion means everyone present understands that unless they know in advance what the employer has done in the mobile phone, the person will definitely not survive.
"Let me go...... I'm going to get revenge on that bastard...... Damn it...... Damn ......"
Shanshu was pressed against the wall with one hand by Yang Buxing and couldn't move, and now that the two sides are fighting so fiercely outside, they will definitely be used as a target when they go out.
"That's enough! Calm down! If you want revenge, at least you have to know who the employer is? Do you think it's really the Westerner who gave the money? I can tell you for sure that the basement must have been empty for a long time!"
Yang Buxing let go of the hand that was holding the mountain book, and let it fall to the ground weakly.
"The situation outside is very complicated, now the three of us have to get out of here as soon as possible, whether to follow or not to follow you. ”
After Yang Bu was hungry, he took Yao Bing and Zhang Xiaofan directly to the rooftop, intending to leave from the roof across the wall, until he stepped on the rooftop, the mountain book and Lu Te downstairs still did not follow.
"Huh...... Don't be hungry, work in vain. ”
Yao Bing joked with a smile.
"What does it matter, sow the seeds, maybe one day the trees will be green. ”
Patting the shoulders of the two good brothers, Yang Bu looked at the crowd on both sides on the street, and took the lead in running over the fence and jumping to the balcony next door......
Fast forward four days, and the situation in Benghazi has become increasingly complex since the armed conflict erupted during the demonstrations. In a very short period of time, large numbers of armed men from nowhere have taken over most of the city, and have been engaged in tug-of-war with government forces encroaching on each other's territory, sometimes fighting for the so-called control of a street.
Yang Buxing and the three of them have been hiding in a Chinese restaurant in the Chinese community for the past few days. The owner of the restaurant, Cai Agen, a Chaoshan native, was out shopping a few days ago when he encountered a crowd of marchers, when he was driving the small electric donkey back, but was pushed to the ground by the mob and even the car was snatched away. And the gunfire in the next block had already begun to spread, and the panic of the crowd made him feel like getting up and he was knocked to the ground again. Fortunately, Yang was not hungry at that time, and the three of them happened to see it and pulled it in time, otherwise they would have been trampled to death lying on the ground with their feet alone.
"Come on...... Braised pork ribs, crystal elbow, sweet and sour fish......
Uncle Gen, come and taste the craftsmanship of not being hungry, this guy's master is a chef with a first-class chef certificate, and he is in charge of the food of the 100th person in the army. ”
Yao Bing, who was holding a dish in one hand, brought the freshly prepared dish from the back kitchen, and the people present smelled the fragrance and almost drowned the restaurant.
Cai Agen is a glutton, and he has been in the kitchen for half his life, and he knows that the level is not simple just by smelling the fragrance.
"Quick, bring it up, I'll try ......"
As soon as he put the ribs in his mouth, Cai Agen's eyes immediately lit up. I went on to taste the other two dishes, and I almost swallowed my tongue.
"You kid Niu, your master is a first-class chef, I don't think you're bad! When this situation passes, don't leave, I'll hand over this kitchen to you, and ensure that business is booming and you will make a fortune!"
"Uncle Gen, don't dream, there are only so many overseas Chinese here, and you still want to make a fortune by opening this Chinese restaurant?
Besides, the three of us are in this situation now, and I'm afraid that only you, who have a big heart, dare to take it in. ”
Yang Bu was not hungry, took off his apron and walked out from behind. Now there are only three of them in the huge restaurant, except for Cai Agen and the guy Li Ming who went out and didn't return. The situation has been so turbulent these days, of course, it is not a luxury to come to eat and consume.
"I, Cai Agen, have never missed anyone since I lived to this day at 63. Believe in the country, things will always fall out one day. Come on, come on, don't say these frustrating words, your stomach is hungry, and the food is cold, and it won't taste good. ”
"Oh, I hope so. ”
In fact, Yang Buxing only hid half of the matter of the three people, so Cai Agen only knew that they were framed and left out, as for the specific reason, he didn't know.
Just as everyone was sitting around and starting to move their chopsticks, there was a sudden knock on the iron gate outside the restaurant.
"Uncle Gen, it's me Mingzai, I'm back. ”
Zhang Xiaofan got up to open the door, and Li Ming, who had just stepped in, was a little surprised, just because there were suddenly a few strangers in the restaurant.
"Uncle Gen, who are they?"
"I'll talk about this later, what's going on outside? What's the situation on the construction sites over there?"
It turned out that the chaotic situation had already been foreshadowed two weeks ago. At present, there are about 35,000 Chinese people in Lbiya, and most of these people are employees of Chinese enterprises and are responsible for the construction of some infrastructure. In Benghazi alone, more than 5,000 people live and work here. Earlier, there had been many cases of robbery and smashing on the construction site, but on the whole, the local police were able to maintain order and their own deterrence.
Because Cai Agen's restaurant mainly depends on which Chinese and overseas Chinese are consumed, sometimes it is necessary to deliver takeaway to the construction site. But no one has been able to come to the door for two weeks, and the promised food delivery has been canceled. So he asked Li Ming to go and have a look, but he didn't expect that this trip would be three days, if it wasn't for the mobile phone that could still be contacted, he thought that something had happened to this child.
"Uncle Gen, it's hard to see through outside. Now the construction site has basically stopped, and the L'Biya people outside the city are specialized in robbing foreigners, and if the police hadn't arrived in time, I and the workers would have been there for a while, but despite this, we were still trapped for days.
The situation in the city is not much better, the other two districts are already in the hands of the opposition, and our side is about to fall sooner or later, and when I first entered the city, I saw that many government troops were slowly withdrawing. ”
After Li Ming finished speaking, he quickly poured himself two large glasses of water. He wanted to say something more, but just then the phone rang in the restaurant.
"Mr. Tsai Agen?"
"Yes, I am. ”
"This is the Chinese Embassy in L'Bia Benghazi, due to the current turmoil, please be prepared to evacuate and return to your home country. The specific date will be notified again according to the situation......"
When Cai Agen put down the phone, everyone present could see the solemnity of his face.
"The call from the embassy said that it was possible for the state to prepare for the evacuation of all the expatriates in L'Bia, so we should prepare early. ”
Overseas evacuation, this has never happened in the history of China, and now hearing such a call, it means that the matter has reached a very serious point.
"Don't be discouraged, no matter how you say it, Kazafi is known as the tiger of Africa, and the dictatorship has ruled this country for more than 40 years, how can any opposition say that it can be overthrown. What's more, this guy is generally popular with the people, everything is free, and these L-Biya people are not stupid. ”
Under Cai Agen's greeting, everyone also sat down, and after introducing each other, Li Ming could be regarded as knowing Yang Buxing.
Time flies by like a white horse, and it is now the end of February. The restaurant is still not open these days, except for Li Ming, who needs to go out to buy some food, almost all five people have not gone out in the store.
In just 10 days, prices in Benghazi have more than tripled. And Yang Bu was not hungry, and he also took out most of the money on his body and handed it to Cai Agen as food. At first, he refused to accept it, but perhaps it was too much pressure caused by rising prices, so Cai Agen finally accepted it cheekily and unceremoniously. But even so, I'm afraid a few people won't be able to last too long.
The banks outside were announced to be closed after being robbed the day before yesterday, and in fact, the money for meals in the past few days was 1,000 binardi for Yang Buxing's life.
"Ming Zai, is the phone of Uncle Zhuang's house still unreachable?"
Cai Agen asked anxiously. is also a Chaoshan person, even if he has not encountered such a situation, he has to make a phone call every other week to report his safety, but today he has made several calls, and everyone else is fine, but the three Zhuang families can't get through anyway. Cai Agen wanted to go over and take a look for himself, but now the gunshots and explosions outside rang out again.
"Uncle Gen, let's go with the three of us. After all, they are all people who have worked in the army and know how to protect themselves. You write me the name and address of Uncle Zhuang's shop. ”
Yang Bu was not hungry and could see that Cai Agen was anxious, so he volunteered to check on his behalf.
"I know the way, I'll go with you!"
Li Ming hung up the phone, and he couldn't rest assured that Zhuang Tingting, the daughter of Uncle Zhuang's family, couldn't be relieved. If it weren't for this turmoil, he would have asked Uncle Gen to help him come to the door to propose.
"Well, you all be careful, and wait until it's dark before you go out. If it's too dangerous, come back quickly, and we can ask the embassy for help. ”
"Don't worry, Uncle Gen, I have it. ”
So for the sake of safety, several people took three knives in the kitchen to defend themselves, but Yang Buxing grabbed a pair of chopsticks in his pocket and went out at night......
