Chapter 373: Embassy

It turns out that it is still necessary to have a bulletproof car in Shuria: Yang Meng was on his way from the port of Tartus to Damascus, when he was let go of a black gun, and one shot hit the glass of the back door of the car.

Yang Meng is also confused about this shot, it is possible that people are just practicing guns.

Anything can happen here. There have been tourists who drove directly to the mines in Shulia, and only when they entered the city could they be safer.

Trucks and cars can be seen on both sides of the road, which have been burned or blown up。。。。。。

Even the roads have been rebuilt, and if you look closely, you will see that there are two colors on the roads: the old roads and the new asphalt roads------- which destroyed almost 99% of the country's roads during the war, and these roads were rebuilt after the end of the civil war.

Along the way, almost all the villages were completely destroyed and devastated, leaving only ruins and tombstones.

In fact, there are still a lot of cars on the road, but everyone is in a hurry, what they want is to hurry back to the city, and like Yang Meng's idea, they also think that they have a greater sense of security in the city.

Speaking of which, the country of Shulia is really miserable.

We all know that there are 'four ancient civilizations' in the world, and part of Shulia belongs to the 'ancient Babylonian kingdom'.

But the history of Shulia is the history of conquest: the Assyrian Empire, the Macedonian Kingdom, the Roman Empire, the Arab Empire, and the Ottoman Empire all ruled here, and after World War II, it finally began to develop economically and quickly became a rich country in the Middle East, and as a result, a civil war directly returned to the pre-liberation period!

How do you think it's almost Damascus?

It's simple: where there are many ruins, it's almost there!

Damascus, as the capital of Syria, was the place where the government army and the rebels exchanged fire, and if it weren't for the government army gritting their teeth here, Shulia would probably not exist now.

But despite the defense, the damage caused will never be remedied: the entire perimeter of Damascus is in ruins. The towns around Damascus have been flattened, and the road is lined with rubble, and construction debris from the bombed-out buildings is piled up on both sides of the road.

Now the situation is slightly better, but the military personnel are everywhere, the security is extremely strict, and they are ready to respond to emergencies.

Yang Meng's identity as a 'medical officer of the Han peacekeeping force' is really useful, and all the checkpoints on the road are green lights all the way, but there is one thing that is very troublesome: almost all the checkpoint soldiers took photos with Yang Meng.

Only here did I know how popular the Han people were.

When Yang Meng entered Damascus, it was already ten o'clock in the morning: all night driving: first went north to the port of Tartus, and then went south to Damascus, which was a big circle!

According to the positioning, Yang Meng came to the Mazar district of Damascus, which is also the most heavily guarded place in Damascus. Buildings like those of foreign embassies and security services are located here. Since the beginning of the war, there are not many embassies left here, and the Han embassy has always been here.

According to the navigation, Yang Meng was guided by the guards to the Han Embassy: although this is the most heavily guarded place, it is also the place that leaves the most traces of war. Many embassies were attacked. Among them is the Han Embassy: the bullet holes on the door tell the story of the war.

To say that during the Shulia Civil War, the Han State did the best: the first time to choose to evacuate overseas Chinese.

Well, this is not the first evacuation activity in China, nor is it the largest one. But it was a memorable one.

As early as the 60s, there was an evacuation of overseas Chinese in the Han Kingdom, and at that time, the Han State held an evacuation activity in response to the Han riots in Indonesia. However, at that time, the Han State was poor, and there was not even a self-operated ocean-going merchant ship, so it could only evacuate overseas Chinese by leasing ships from other places, and it took more than a year to evacuate more than 60,000 people; in the 80s, there was a second large-scale evacuation of overseas Chinese, and at that time, the Han State evacuated more than 800 people from that side during the war in South Yemen, but at that time it was still poor, and it was a ship from the former Soviet Union that came back by taking a ship from the former Soviet Union and taking a cruise ship from the country of corruption and taking an ocean-going freighter.

In the 21st century, the country has become a little richer, such as the Solomon riots, the East Timor riots, the Libanon conflict, the Tonga riots, etc., the country chose to evacuate the overseas Chinese for the first time.

But there were not many people in those places, and all the planes were pulled back to China.

It was not until the beginning of the 10s of the 21st century that the Han State began to rise in earnest and began to evacuate overseas Chinese through military force, and in 2011, a vigorous Libyan evacuation shocked the world. The Civil Aviation, Navy, and Air Force went into battle together, with 182 civil charter planes, five cargo ships, four military aircraft, and more than 20 cruise ships and warships taking 35,860 compatriots back to China.

However, compared with the Libyan evacuation that shocked the world, the Shulia evacuation that occurred in the same year was even more interesting.

At that time, there were about 2,000 Han citizens in Shulia, in addition to the employees of large state-owned enterprises stationed here, there were also businessmen, overseas students and the like, just when a large number of citizens from other countries were at a loss, more than 2,000 Han people had secretly returned to China!

At that time, those foreigners were confused: where did the Han people go?

The answer to this is actually very simple, there are less than twenty people left in the entire Shulia country, almost all of them are embassy personnel and Han military observers from the United Pavilion。。。。。。

And the Han people are too dignified on the streets of Shulia.

Yang Meng drove all the way, and countless people beckoned to him.

This is because since the war in Shulia, the Han State has continuously provided humanitarian relief to Shulia, and the relief materials provided by the Han people are simple and crude: almost all of them are rice and medical supplies.

After all, the most important thing is that the people have a full stomach.

When he arrived at the door of the embassy, Yang Meng explained to the security guard at the door that he had come to hand in his documents, and after a while, the embassy gate opened, and the security guard signaled Yang Meng to drive the car in!

Yang Meng got out of the car and took a closer look around, hmm. The Han Embassy is still very beautiful overall, it is also a villa, there is a swimming pool and, if it is not for the bullet holes in the wall and the eyes are spicy, this is definitely a very beautiful place.

And as long as a Han Chinese comes here, he will definitely say for the first time: This is definitely where Han people live.

Because the whole yard is a vegetable garden, and there are cabbage, loofahs, and so on.

Very good, this is very Han country, where to go。。。。。。

But how is there no one in such a big embassy?

He parked his car and watched as the security guard at the door didn't know where to look. As a result, as soon as he wanted to speak, he heard someone greet him: "You are Xiao Yang, right?

Yang Meng followed the prestige, and his mind was directly black: The person who came was about one meter tall and in his early seventies, fifty or sixty years old, and looked very capable, but what is the matter with you wearing sneakers, shorts, and a basketball vest?

What's even more spicy is the four big words 'model worker' on the basketball vest, has this Nima himself traveled to fifty years ago?

Seeing Yang Meng looking at himself, the visitor smiled slightly, and stretched out his hand to Yang Meng: "I am the ambassador of the Han State to Shulia Satellite satellite, this name is easy to remember, you can just call me Lao Wei." Brother Liu called me and introduced you. ”

Yang Meng let out an 'oh' after hearing this, and hurriedly shook hands with the satellite: "I said Ambassador Wei, why are you dressed like this?"

Satellite laughed: "It's also a good time for you to catch up today, today happens to be the time for our embassy basketball game." ”

"Embassy basketball game?" Yang Meng didn't understand what it meant.

Satellite said: "That's right, the Han embassy in Shulia will hold a basketball game every week, when the war situation is at its most tense, the mood is tense, our embassy organizes a basketball game every week, and some diplomats and journalists who stay in Damascus are organized to play basketball, on the one hand, it is to communicate all aspects of intelligence in a timely manner, and on the other hand, it is to relieve tension." So far, the war has eased a lot, but the event has been maintained. ”

Yang Meng nodded after hearing this: "This is a good way, are you quite good at living?" ”

"What will you live, it's just a pleasure in suffering, the left-behind diplomats are not ordinary diplomats, their families are not around, there are many work tasks, and the psychological pressure is great, and the family members are afraid in the country. I also have to rely on myself to adjust my psychology here。。。。。。 What do you think of the vegetables I grow here?" The satellite was surprisingly good at talking, and Yang Meng was a little surprised.

Satellite also saw Yang Meng's doubts, he smiled bitterly: "I am in Shulia's circle, except for colleagues in the embassy, there are almost no compatriots, occasionally one or two come then I am excited, you can't understand my current situation, now I hear the local voice will really make people excited! The past two years have been better, occasionally I can see Han tourists, as well as domestic aid personnel, a few years ago, it was unbearable! I have developed a problem with reading out of my writing, and I am afraid that I will forget how to say Chinese!"

"Then why don't you go back, so that you can reunite with your family and not have so much pressure?" Yang Meng asked puzzled.

After listening to this, the satellite suddenly fell silent, and after a while, he said: "I am needed here, and my family needs me." ”

When encountering such a person with such an answer, Yang Meng could only give a thumbs up.

Satellite shook his head and laughed again: "This is not the time to complain, our basketball game over there, why don't you go and watch it?"

Yang Meng shook his head: "No, since you are on the phone with Liu Lao, then you should know the purpose of my coming, is Liu Pianpian here?"

"Yes, I'm sleeping in the room, Xiao Yang, I'm looking forward to the stars and the moon finally looking forward to you! I'm really crazy if you don't come again!" Weixing shook his head.

Yang Meng was stunned for a moment: "What did Liu Pianpian do to drive you crazy?

Satellite sighed: "Xiao Yang, you can see it with me and you will understand." ”
