"Where's the fish! What about fish! Where's my fish! To live! ”

In the village of the Luer people, in the big house in the center, Su Ming's cry to eat fish kept sounding.

The two soldiers guarding the door were angry and amused, thinking that this high priest's guest was really strange, what could he eat, why did he have to eat fish, and it had to be a live fish?

The High Priest seemed to value the guest, and explained that he could not let him leave the room, but in fact all the requests were fulfilled as much as possible. Big Brother Emile even took a few people to catch fish in the nearby river.

Since the IS issued a final surrender deadline to the clans, the nearby mountains have become less secure, and from time to time IS armed forces will appear, looming to put pressure on the clans. Guards have been strengthened around the tribe, and may the god of fire bless him and bring back Brother Emir.

The thought of ISIS made the soldiers on guard very distressed. If they do not surrender, the other side will definitely not let go of the Luhrs, and according to the consistent style of IS, the entire tribe will not survive; But if you surrender, the result is not much better, it is just the difference between early death and late death.

"I heard the High Priest and Basel and Amir say behind their backs that the man inside, the Apostle of the Vulcan, will lead us out of this predicament." A guard pouts at the wooden house behind him.

"He? Hmph, I don't believe it! The other guard choked his lips in disdain, "How can the messenger of the Vulcan be a greedy Oriental?" ”

"Where's the fish! Why hasn't the fish arrived yet?! Su Ming's voice came from the room again, two guards, you look at me, I look at you, and sighed heavily at the same time.

……

The Iraqi Undersecretary for Foreign Affairs put down the phone in his hand and felt depressed.

It's really a wave of unsettled, wave after wave, the Russian female mercenaries and Chinese businessmen have not yet been accounted for, and the Americans have an accident again!

Just now, Mr. Minister brought another breathless news: two reporters from the US National Geographic magazine infiltrated the IS-occupied area, and before they could go deeper, they were captured by the IS, and they were taken hostage and demanded a ransom of $100 million from the US government.

The US ambassador seemed to have a particularly strong temper today, and he completely ignored diplomatic etiquette and directly scolded Mr. Minister and several senior government officials on the phone, and demanded that the Iraqi Government do everything possible to solve the problem.

Mr. Minister scolded Mr. Deputy Minister on the phone again. The Americans have found out that the approximate extent of the ISIS holding journalists hostages is in the Zagros Mountains, within a radius of 100 kilometers from the Luhr settlement.

In view of the fact that the military had been contacted and a battalion of regular troops had been sent to the territory of the Luhr to negotiate the rescue of Lyudmila and Su Ming, the government decided to merge the two things into one thing: after saving the Oriental Russians, the battalion went deep into the mountains to search for American journalists.

Mr. Deputy Chief thought about it for a while, dialed the secretary's number, and asked him to get in touch with the battalion sent out to report the progress of the rescue work at any time.

It didn't take long for the secretary to walk into the office nervously, looking nervous, and whispered a few words to the deputy director.

After hearing this, Mr. Deputy Chief jumped up from his chair and shouted: "What, that battalion of people was wiped out by IS?!" Why is there a large army of IS in the vicinity of the Luhr ghetto?! ”

"Sir, the Luhrs have asked the government for help half a month ago, and the IS has asked them to surrender and send troops to be stationed in the Zagros mountains. However, the government has not paid attention to it. The secretary whispered.

The deputy chief quickly calmed down from the shock.

If a battalion can be eliminated in a short period of time, even if the combat effectiveness of this battalion is second-rate in the government army sequence, it also shows that the other side is definitely not a small force.

In other words, it is likely that the IS had sent a large force into the Zagros Mountains, and they had been preparing to coerce the Luhrs into submission, and they happened to encounter the battalion that had gone to rescue them.

"So it's likely that both American journalists, as well as Eastern businessmen and Russian mercenaries, have fallen into the hands of the IS forces?" The deputy chief analyzed.

"Sir, we can't be sure either, because we can't contact these three groups at all." The secretary was sweating profusely.

The second chief rubbed his temples, thought for a moment, and suddenly showed a very relaxed smile, "Very good." ”

"Huh?" The secretary thought he had misheard, or else Mr. Deputy Chief was crazy? Before, Mr. Deputy Chief was anxious like a lamb on a bonfire, but now things are getting bigger and bigger, almost to the point where they can't be covered, and Mr. Deputy Chief says 'Very good'?

Mr. Deputy Chief was not crazy, he calmed down and thought about it, but he was relieved. This matter is no longer a minor internal contradiction between the government and the Luhr people, but has risen to the issue of war between the government and the IS country, and it also involves the three largest powers in the world, which is not something that he can manage as a vice minister of foreign affairs.

Let the headquarters and Mr. President worry about the rest of the matter.

Mr. Deputy Governor really had a keen political vision, and in the afternoon of the same day, Mr. President convened an emergency meeting with senior government officials.

The matter could not be completely covered up, and relevant reports appeared in the media of various countries, and real and speculative news flew all over the sky.

News Network: "At four o'clock yesterday afternoon Iraqi time, Iraqi government forces and the IS country launched a fierce exchange of fire in the Zagros Mountains, and the IS country completely annihilated a Iraqi battalion with an overwhelming advantage...... According to journalists in Baghdad, a Chinese businessman is likely to be trapped in the Luhr area of the war zone, and our embassy has already opened consultations with the Iraqi government......"

CNN: "Once again, what a stupid move it is for the United States to send troops directly into Iraq, and what have we gained for more than a decade in addition to the hatred of hundreds of millions of Islans, countless terrorist attacks?" Petroleum? God, at least half of Iraq's oil has been divided between the Chinese and the Russians, and even the EU has taken a slice of it, and our stupid government has been completely used as a pioneer......"

"Yes, I couldn't agree more! So, before me, at least three American presidents should have been pulled out and shot, oh God, one time is not enough, three shots! ”

"Mr. Trump, as the Republican presidential candidate, is there anything you would like to say to the current Mr. President of the United States?"

"Of course, first, since we have withdrawn our troops from Iraq, we cannot afford to send troops on a large scale again and get into this quagmire; Second, if he can rescue those two poor American journalists, I will consider acknowledging that he has contributed some things when I become president......"

Russian state television, ****** the ****** unchanged stereotyped face appeared on the screen, behind him was a row of airborne troops ready to go.

"I don't know what is, I don't know what is a Luhr, I only know that Miss Lyudmila was once a soldier of the country, she protected my ex-wife, she paid taxes for the country, and she was a very beautiful girl. So, boys of the 76 Airborne Division, I order you to rescue this girl and bring her back to your homeland! ”

And on the IS country's own television station, a group of militants frantically shouted: "Come on, Americans, Russians, the Iraqi government, your blood will stain the Zagros Mountains, and the flames of Allah will burn all the infidels!" (To be continued.) )
