Chapter 1798 The Ancient City Flooded with Hatred
As soon as the convoy left Atarot International Airport, Ye Tian began to arm.
He picked up the suitcase full of weapons and ammunition from the trunk, carried it to the back seat of the car, opened it, took out his weapons and ammunition from it, and equipped them one by one.
At the same time, he picked up a special Kevlar body armor from the box and casually threw it to David, who was also in a bulletproof SUV.
"David, put body armor under your coat just in case, this is Jerusalem, all kinds of forces are gathered, dragons and snakes are mixed, armed conflicts are like a common thing, they can happen at any time, you must be careful!
After entering the city, we must be vigilant, if there is a conflict or someone attacks our convoy, you must follow me, I will ensure your safety, if necessary, I will give you a gun to use to protect yourself!"
"Okay, Steven, since I'm coming to Jerusalem with you, I'm mentally prepared to face this situation, don't worry, I'm not a helpless sissy who can protect myself!"
David nodded confidently, reached out and took the Kevlar body armor, and immediately began to put it on.
In the blink of an eye, Ye Tian was already armed.
Then, he quickly took a look at the weapons and equipment on his body, just in case!
After making sure that all the weapons and equipment were okay, he put on a cashmere coat and covered the body armor on his body, the G36C short assault rifle hanging from his side, and the pistol in the holster on his chest.
David, who was sitting next to him, quickly put on the body armor as well, and then put on an overcoat to hide the body armor.
They had just finished getting set up, and within a few minutes, Cole's voice suddenly came through the headphones.
"Steven, a mass protest eruption in Jerusalem is a continuation of the protests of the past few days over the construction of a new Jewish settlement in the West Bank.
The protests, which have been going on for four days, have escalated in parts of Jerusalem into fighting between Israeli forces and Palestinians.
The same is true today, the MUSI forest area in the east of Jerusalem and the Armenian area in the southwest are the most intense, and the two sides are fighting each other, so we must be more careful!"
Hearing the news reported by Cole, Ye Tian's face immediately showed an expression that was really like this.
After a moment's deep groaning, he sneered and said:
"See, Cole, this is the norm in Jerusalem, and it is normal, long before I came to Jerusalem, I expected that this would probably happen, and sure enough!
Inform all the men that everyone should be vigilant, that they should always be ready to fight, that the principle of the exchange of fire is the same as before, that they must not be the first to shoot, and that the justification for their defense must be firmly occupied.
In the event of an exchange of fire, you must not be polite, whether it is an Israeli, a Palestinian, or whatever, if the other side dares to attack us, then send them to hell.
After the convoy enters the city of Jerusalem, if there are protesters throwing stones at the convoy, you don't have to get out of the car and take action, just leave the matter to the Israeli military and police guarding it!
Also, don't forget to inform Leonardo so that they are ready to fight, and put pressure on the Israeli government through the Vatican, if the conflict can be avoided!"
"Understood, Steven, I'm going to inform the guys, inform Leonardo about them"
Cole answered, ended the call, and got into action.
In the blink of an eye, ten or twenty minutes have passed.
The old city of Jerusalem has appeared in front of us and in everyone's field of vision.
From a distance, the 4,000-year-old city looks like a battlefield of intense firefighting.
The convoy was still some distance from the Old City of Jerusalem, but the air was filled with the choking smell of gunpowder and the stench of burnt car tires.
Seeing this scene, Ye Tian and David immediately looked at each other and smiled, and raised their vigilance.
The rest of the convoy, as well as the members of the Swiss Guard in charge of security and the many security personnel under Ye Tian, were also vigilant.
Not to mention the Israeli military and police who were scattered in front of and behind the convoy to the left and right of the convoy, not to mention the fact that every one of them was already in a state of readiness.
As he spoke, the huge convoy had left the highway and slammed into the Old City of Jerusalem, slowing down.
As soon as they entered the old town, everyone in the convoy immediately felt the tension of the outside world, and the air was filled with gunsmoke, which was completely different from other cities they had visited before.
On the streets of Jerusalem, there are teams of Israeli military and police armed with ammunition.
Men and women, these Israeli military and police officers are always in a tight battle formation, patrolling the streets in front and behind, everyone on high alert, ready to fight!
Looking at the people on the streets, there is a clear distinction between Jews and Palestinians.
Just by their mental state and the clothes they wear, it is clear that they are Jews and Palestinians, and it is almost impossible to make a mistake.
And without exception, all the Jews on the streets looked at the Palestinians with hatred and anger in their eyes, and it was almost impossible to resolve the kind of hatred, unforgettable!
And vice versa, all Palestinians look at the Jews with the same unwavering hatred, as if they can't immediately kill the enemy on the other side.
Looking at the picture outside the car window and the hatred that seemed to permeate the entire Jerusalem, Ye Tian couldn't help but shake his head lightly, and said in a cold voice:
"It is clear that Jerusalem has been completely overwhelmed by hatred, and the people who live here, whether Jews or Palestinians, are afraid that they live in fear every day, and there is no happiness at all!"
"Perhaps this is the fate of Jerusalem, four thousand years ago, from the day the city was born, it was a place of strife, sacredness and hatred, which has continued to this day and has never changed!"
David continued, and sent a few words of emotion.
At the same time that Ye Tian and the others were full of emotion, the people on the streets where the convoy passed, as well as the Israeli military and police patrolling, also looked at the huge convoy curiously.
Through social media, they already knew who was in the huge convoy and why they were coming to Jerusalem at this time.
As the huge motorcade roared past people's eyes, the streets immediately resounded with a burst of whispering.
"This is the convoy of Steven's guys, I didn't expect their first stop to explore the treasures of the Knights Templar turned out to be Jerusalem, I don't know if they can find the treasures here, find those holy relics!"
"It would be great if you could find the treasures of the Knights Templar, especially the Holy Grail and the Ark of the Covenant, which are sacred objects of Judaism, and they must be left in Israel and in Jerusalem."
In the midst of people's discussions, Ye Tian's convoy had quickly moved away and disappeared out of people's field of vision.
At this time, Jerusalem was very chaotic, with fires, smoke, bloodshed, and screeching gunfire.
However, the Israeli military and police, who were responsible for guiding the convoy forward, chose a much safer route, and the joint exploration team was going to the Christian area, which was relatively peaceful.
Therefore, the convoy did not encounter large-scale protests or clashes along the way, and entered the northwest of the Old City of Jerusalem, that is, the Christian Quarter!
Of course, on the way, they also encountered some protesters, but the number was relatively small and relatively peaceful, and did not threaten the safety of the convoy.
In this way, the convoy arrived at its destination without any danger, a hotel next to the Church of the Holy Sepulchre.
