Chapter 633: Two Hundred and Seventy See you next year
The sun was getting lower and lower from the horizon, and the appointed time was approaching, when the gunshots rang out for a while, and suddenly there was silence. Surrounded by yellow sand, everything returned to a dead silence.
"Let's go!" Lao Zhou poked his head out and was pulled down by Cheng Hao.
"Be careful!"
Before the words fell, a shuttle of bullets hit the low wall, and the stray bullet almost flew over Lao Zhou's head.
Lao Zhou's face turned white with fright, and he glanced back at Cheng Hao gratefully.
Fan Gang gasped and whispered to them, "I saw a few figures coming this way, what should I do?"
The location was too small, with only one opening to the east.
Cheng Hao has never faced such a situation, and now shooting will definitely lead the other party over, and they don't know how many people the other party has, but they just sit and wait to be killed if they hide like this.
He turned his head to look at Lao Zhou, then at Fan Gang, and made up his mind:
"Lao Zhou, you go! We cover you! You must bring the supplies to everyone, go according to the original plan, and don't look back!"
Fan Gang also nodded firmly, he had already prepared for the worst when he stayed.
Lao Zhou knew what they meant, and the five-foot-tall man suddenly turned red.
Fan Gang's voice was a little choked and said: "If I can't go back, I'll bring a message to my parents, saying that let them pay attention to their bodies, don't be reluctant to eat and wear, and I will honor them in the next life!"
"What about you?" the old man turned his face and looked at Cheng Hao.
Cheng Hao took out a quaint necklace from the pocket on his chest.
It was a silver bezel lion's tooth, a gift from a tribal leader who said that the tooth contained the soul of a male lion and could bring courage, strength and luck.
"Please take Xiao Zhang back, and then give this to my wife, and tell her that I love her!"
After saying that, he fired a few bullets in the opposite direction, and the sound of gunfire immediately attracted the attention of the rebels, Fan Gang saluted Lao Zhou, and then followed behind Cheng Hao, leading the enemy elsewhere.
……
The gunfire finally died out, and Cheng Hao and Fan Gang gasped as they leaned against the cement base of an unfinished building.
It's really dangerous, it's like a narrow escape.
"Are there any bullets?" Cheng Hao said with a handful of sweat.
Fan Gang shook his head: "There aren't many left." ”
Cheng Hao couldn't help but smile bitterly, a rookie like himself who can't cook anymore consumes far more bullets than the other party.
Fan Gang smiled: "Are you on the battlefield for the first time?"
Cheng Hao nodded.
"Yes, you are really talented! If you become a soldier, you will definitely be a soldier!" he couldn't help but sigh.
This journey not only did not drag him back, but also found a way out of the dangerous environment with his wise mind and judgment. I can't believe he hasn't even touched a gun.
I really can't think of what this person around me does, this quality really doesn't look like an ordinary overseas worker.
"Save on it!"
Fan Gang gave Cheng Hao a portion of his bullets.
The two of them still have to take advantage of the night to break through and leave here.
I don't know how long I ran, but suddenly from behind the ruins came several people, dressed in rags and carrying old-fashioned AK semi-automatic rifles, and ordered them to stop in stilted English.
Cheng Hao's heart was cold, and he slowly raised his hand above his head, but he didn't expect it to be folded here.
"Don't move, do as they say!" Cheng Hao whispered to Fan Gang as he slowly turned around.
The rebels questioned the identities of Cheng Hao and Fan Gang in Arabic, and Fan Gang, who didn't understand it at all, was at a loss, but he didn't expect Cheng Hao to be able to answer them fluently.
He told the other party that they were workers in the construction company and had been separated from their colleagues because of an unexpected situation. They did not carry any weapons, had no intention of resisting, and identified their nationality.
Fan Gang raised his hand and looked at Cheng Hao with a look of surprise, it was amazing, this person could understand Arabic!
The rebels whispered something to each other, and a leader-like figure motioned for his men to search him.
Cheng Hao knew in his heart that at this time, he could only cooperate unconditionally, and now he was no different from an ant, and it was not just a matter of year or month to be killed and find the bones here.
They only retrieved half a bottle of drinking water from him and threw it at his feet.
Fortunately, they ran out of bullets at that time, so they both threw away the assault rifles that got in the way, thinking that they would be able to get out in the night, but they didn't expect to fall short.
Fan Gang's situation was obviously not going well, they touched the back of his belt, only to see Fan Gang put the other party down with a back fall, and then had an extra pistol in his hand.
I could only hear the sound of gunfire on all sides, and the smell of blood rushed to my nose.
"It's over!" Cheng Hao said silently in his heart, and then closed his eyes.
I didn't expect that the end of his life would really be frozen here, and pictures suddenly appeared in his mind, without his majestic style, without his chic and handsome in charge of Qiankun, some are just simple daily bits and pieces, and her flower-like smile.
It turns out that when life really comes to an end, you will find that the most important thing in life is not those vigorous, but ordinary and happy, as long as she is by her side.
"Xiaoyuan, I miss you very much, see you in the next life......"
He smiled and whispered her name, then waited for his body to melt into the cold earth.
The gunfire stopped, Cheng Hao had not yet come out of that situation, and it took a long time for him to slowly open his eyes, but he was surprised to find that the rebels had fallen to the ground, but he was unharmed.
Cheng Hao turned his head to look at Fan Gang, and Fan Gang also shook his head in shock, obviously he didn't understand what was going on.
A field jeep drew a nice arc and stopped directly in front of him.
Fan Gang slowly moved to his side, obviously he was also shocked by this feeling of escaping death, and he didn't know how to deal with the situation in front of him.
A white man chewing gum jumped out of the car, looked at the messy corpses with contempt, and then reprimanded Cheng Hao in English.
Cheng Hao glanced at his outfit and vehicle, and quickly made a judgment in his heart.
"My name is Cheng Hao, and I am a staff member of China's aid project in Africa, are you from an international security company?" he said in English with his hand raised, and at this time he had not yet figured out whether the other party was friend or foe, so he still had to show his greatest cooperation and goodwill.
The man laughed and then replied "no!"
"It seems to be an international mercenary!" Fan Gang whispered.
Cheng Hao immediately understood something.
These international mercenaries have always been both good and evil, daring to take on any job for money, and they are all a bunch of outlaws who lick blood on the tip of a knife.
But since it's for the money, it's easy to do!
Cheng Hao immediately said: "I'm going to talk to your leader! Since you saved us, you are friends, and your conditions are easy to say!"
After hearing his words, the man shouted into the car: "Gold!"
I saw a person in the jeep slowly stand up, jump out of the car and walk towards Cheng Hao.
Seeing the other party's figure and walking posture, Cheng Hao couldn't help but be stunned.
It turned out to be a woman!
