After a hasty breakfast at the embassy, the tired people immediately got on the car and rushed to the construction site, this time the aid project is a small hydroelectric power station, in the embassy, Xiao Ming they received 8 Type 95 assault rifles and 10 Type 92 pistols, a number of bullets, although it is impossible to do a hand, but with so many guns to defend themselves, everyone's hearts are much more steady, when the car drove out of front of the embassy 'door', the embassy' There are already a lot of Iraqis starting a new day in front of the door, and Baghdad would be a very beautiful city if it weren't for those horrific terrorist attacks. Looking at the flow of people on both sides of the street, Xiao Ming said: "War is a disaster for the people of any country. ”

An Iraqi policeman who was sitting in the car with Xiao Ming and the others said in English: "Three days ago, there was a car bomb explosion here, and more than 10 people were killed on the spot. ”

Listening to the policeman's words, Xiao Ming and they could only remain silent, this is their political matter, and Xiao Ming has nothing to do with them, even if Xiao Ming wants to help them, they are more than willing but not enough, the car slowly drove out of the urban area of Baghdad, towards the Euphrates River more than 30 kilometers outside the city, the project site is on a tributary of the Euphrates River, as the car drove out of the city, Xiao Ming's attention was quickly shocked by the desert on both sides of the highway, only to see that there was not a single green tree on both sides of the straight road, some were just oil and sand, and from time to time the roadside could flash a rusty tank wreckage, which was the product of the two Iraq wars, Xiao Ming took a sip of the water in the kettle and said, "This place is really desolate. ”

Ryugo said, "I'm watching to see if there are any snipers nearby. Long Wu's words made everyone laugh, but Long Er said: "Don't laugh yet, before the US troops retreated, when they patrolled the road, they were easily attacked by snipers, even if they were well equipped, they couldn't dodge the bullets flying from the shadows." Ryuuji's words made everyone immediately stop laughing and look around a little nervously, but there was nothing but the bare desert. The scorching sun made people dizzy, Hou Wei took a breath and said: "If there are really snipers, I'm afraid they won't stay here, before we come, they will be roasted first." ”

Hou Wei's words made everyone's nervous mood relaxed, of course, the depressing atmosphere just now was gone, no one would find that when the four cars drove by in turn, in a big pit not far from the highway, two soldiers wearing desert 'camouflage' uniforms and wearing earthy yellow 'color' camouflage nets raised their heads, they were still holding high-powered binoculars in their hands, and they were carrying M16A4 rifles behind their backs, and one of them said: "That's right, make them exactly like the people in the photo given by the lieutenant, and we can go back." The two stood up and walked towards a mound of dirt behind, one of them lifted the camouflage cloth on it, and below it was a yellow-colored Hummer jeep, the two of them got into the car neatly and disappeared at the end of the road, Xiao Ming and none of them noticed this change, which made them encounter great trouble in their future actions.

The convoy drove for nearly two hours to arrive at the construction site, and there was basically no road in the second half of the momentum, only potholed dirt roads, so the distance of more than ten kilometers in the bumps was hard to drive for almost an hour, and when everyone arrived at the construction site, it was already noon, and I saw that the construction site was next to a big river, surrounded by a simple wooden plank, and there was not even a "door" at the entrance of the big 'gate', and several young Iraqi guards sat in the guardhouse without 'precision' The door, the so-called guardhouse, is actually a plastic roof, pressed a shelf, like a gazebo, the guard is a very worn AK47 rifle in the hand, Xiao Ming is very doubtful that the gun can be fired, Xiao Ming and their arrival made the construction site lively, many hired Iraqi workers have put down their work and come over, Hu Yuemin got out of the car, a middle-aged man wearing glasses ran over, and said: "Old Hu! I can be regarded as waiting for you, come! Please sit in the house." ”

Xiao Ming and they were wearing white 'color' short sleeves at this time, desert 'camouflage' color 'pants', black 'color' body armor outside, peaked caps, sunglasses on their eyes, and Type 95 assault rifles, after getting out of the car, Xiao Ming immediately glanced around the surrounding environment, and soon Xiao Ming realized that if anyone came to such a security facility, there was or not, and after everyone got out of the car, two Chinese engineers came over and said: "Welcome, go to the canteen to eat something." ”

This construction site is the size of half a football field, and it is close to the tributary of the Euphrates River, and the board houses of the Chinese personnel are by the river, while the shacks of Iraqi workers are at the entrance of the big 'gate', all of which are white 'colored' board houses, which are stuffy and hot inside, Xiao Ming saw that there was air conditioning, and asked curiously: "Isn't this air conditioning?"

One of the engineers, surnamed Zhao, wiped the sweat from his face and said: "Don't dare to open it, there is no electricity here, all electricity is generated by generators, once the air conditioning is turned on, the electricity consumption of the entire construction site will be affected." ”

Xiao Ming nodded, followed everyone to the canteen, the welcome meal was very simple, mainly canned food, canned beef 'meat', canned fish, canned fruit and some dried vegetables, the middle-aged man with glasses was called Wang Huatian, who was the temporary person in charge of the construction site, he was a little embarrassed and said: "The conditions are a little difficult, I'm sorry." ”

Hu Yuemin shook his head, stood up and said, "Huatian, let you come here first, you are the hardest, it's good to have these." ”

Xiao Ming picked up the jar and took a sip of water, frowned, and found that this water actually had a strange smell that could not be explained, seeing Xiao Ming's expression, Wang Huatian said: "This little comrade, the water here smells like this, there is no way." ”

Xiao Ming said with a smile: "It's 'good' to drink water." ”

Liu Xing frowned and took a sip, and found that everyone had drunk it, so he had no choice, so he drank it hard. What surprised Xiao Ming the most was Zhang Xian, she didn't frown at such undrinkable water, she drank it when she picked it up, Long Wu touched Xiao Ming's arm and said, "Wow, she actually drank it without any expression." ”

As if he found Xiao Ming looking at her, Zhang Xian put down the cup and smiled sweetly at Xiao Ming, Long Wu 'excitedly' pulled Xiao Ming's arm and said, "Hey! look, she's smiling at me!"

Xiao Ming said helplessly: "'Nymphomaniac'!"

After eating, the person in charge of Lao A, Major He Tian, came to Hu Yuemin and said, "Hu Gong, the security and anti-counterfeiting measures here are really poor, I think we should clean up from scratch." ”

Hu Yuemin nodded and said, "I also found out, but the workers are all hired and only do the prescribed work every day。。。。。。 ”

"It's okay, I figured it out, it's idle anyway, we'll 'get it' ourselves, we just need some sacks and barbed wire. He Tian said.

"That's fine. Hu Yuemin nodded happily. Solved this side, He Tian came to Long Er again, this time back to Iraq, the person in charge of the 'Dragon' force is Long Er, He Tian said: "Long Er, we must rearrange the defense measures here, otherwise, as soon as it gets dark, once those militants want to attack us, we can't hold it at all, the construction site is too big." ”

Ryuuji nodded and said, "Okay! I'll let them 'get it'." ”

Soon, hundreds of sacks were brought over, and He Tian said: "First of all, the fence is all torn down, filled with sacks with sand, and built from the new, and then fixed with wooden planks inside, and the wall is surrounded by a small guard tower every 50 meters. ”

Looking at the sack on the ground, Ryuuji said, "I'm afraid there aren't enough sacks." ”

Xiao Ming looked at the wall and said, "It's definitely not enough, it's better to have thousands." ”

"Install first, not enough. He Tian said.

Just do it, leave 4 guns on guard, the rest of the people took off their body armor and immediately started working, many Iraqi workers here looked at Xiao Ming with some curiosity, one of them looked at Xiao Ming with a wandering look at Xiao Ming put the sand on the ground into a sack, his eyes 'revealed' a trace of ruthlessness, Xiao Ming put a bag full of sand on the ground, as if he felt that someone was watching them, Xiao Ming suddenly raised his head and found an Iraqi worker god' When the sun set, the front wall and the big 'gate' were finally completed, the new fence was two meters high, built with two rows of sandbags, and some steel bars were inserted on it irregularly, and on the inside of the wall, it was pressed with wooden planks, so that even if it hit the wall outside, it could be topped, everyone was sweating profusely, He Tian took a breath and said: "Drive a car over tonight to block the big ' Tomorrow we will find a way to solve the problem of the big 'door'. ”

At this time, those Iraqi workers also finished their day's work and walked towards their own dormitory, Xiao Ming originally wanted to tell Long Er about the worker, but after thinking about it, Xiao Ming still decided not to say it yet, after all, there is no evidence, just Xiao Ming's own feelings, after eating in the evening, Long Er simply lined up the sentry list, everything seems to be back in the army, Xiao Ming and Long Wu station in the middle of the night, Xu Wuyang and Long Er station in the second half of the night, the Ministry of State Security and Lao A rotate a day, there is no activity in the camp at night, there is no TV, Xiao Ming and Long Wu are sitting in the big oneOn the roof of the truck at the entrance of the 'gate', time passed minute by minute, and soon after 12 o'clock in the evening, just when Xiao Ming was about to wake up the drowsy 'want' Long Wu, a piercing scream suddenly came from the sky.
