Chapter 129: Knowing Where to Go
When passing by a gas station, Li Qingcang went in to fill up the car, bought two large barrels full of gasoline, loaded them in the back body, and fixed them with ropes. By the way, I bought a piece of canvas and cut it into two pieces, one to cover the oil drum to protect it from direct sunlight to protect it from high temperatures, and the other to cover it over the weapon placed in the back seat.
Then I ordered a local fried rice called "Jollof rice" at the snack bar next to the gas station, the ingredients are chicken, onions, tomatoes, pepper and stir-fried in butter twice, added to the rice and stir-fried, and finally added to the broth and boiled dry, which tasted good.
After eating, get in the car and insert a ceramic insert plate on the front and back of the bulletproof vest, and wear it on your body, and the pistol and saber are also neatly draped.
Wearing a casual jacket on the outside, ready to fire at any time, he drove straight to Mr. Hu's hotel.
The stragglers wandering along the highway did not stop his car, and whenever he came across the checkpoint, he took out his pass and handed it to the soldiers who were extorting money on the road with guns.
This pass is indeed effective, the soldiers at each checkpoint will be politely allowed to go when they see it, when Li Qingcang asked the direction of the hotel in English, these soldiers will actually show the way enthusiastically, and no one will come to check what he is carrying in the car.
Along the way, it is common to see dead bodies on the side of the road and mobs pretending to be dead bodies swaggering through the city.
There were many checkpoints on the road, and Li Qing was secretly anxious, and it took nearly two hours to reach the address marked on the note.
I saw that the destination was a tall building with more than 30 floors, and the billboard on the roof of the building read "Oriental Hotel" in a huge bilingual in Chinese and English. It stands out from the crowd in this low-rise complex.
Li Qingcang drove the car to the front of the hotel, only to find that the hotel had closed down, and the glass door of the hall on the first floor was tightly closed, and the roller shutter was closed inside. However, these precautions are now useless, and many of the window glass doors are full of holes, but fortunately the roller shutters inside have not been damaged.
A dozen or so black men wearing security uniforms but carrying AK47s on their shoulders were wandering around in front of the hotel gate, and when they saw Li Qingcang parking, they all gathered around, pointed guns at Li Qingcang and asked him in English what he was doing here.
Li Qingcang saw that these black men were not wearing military uniforms, but the weapons they held were more uniform than those soldiers who set up cards on the road.
Looking at their posture of walking and holding guns, they have no military common sense at all, and many of them have not opened the safety of their guns, and they also raise their guns and pretend to be at him.
There are also people who have opened the safety, and their fingers are still on the trigger, but the muzzle of the gun keeps shaking, shaking over the bodies of his companions from time to time, which makes Li Qingcang look scared, for fear that this brother will use a little more force on his fingers, and as soon as the gun in his hand goes off, his companions will be unlucky.
Seeing such an inexplicable group of armed forces, Li Qingcang calmly replied after a little thought: "I am Chinese, and I came here to find Mr. Hu!" ”
At the same time, he has quietly grasped the handle of the pistol on his waist, as long as the other party is wrong, he will strike first.
When the black man who asked the question heard that he was Chinese and had come to find Mr. Hu, his face was much better, and he shouted for the other companions to put down their guns.
Then he gestured to Li Qingcang to get out of the car, and Li Qingcang saw that the gang put down their guns, so there must be no malicious intent. He also opened the car door and walked down.
After a brief conversation, I learned that this group of people was also an employee of Mr. Hu, but they were all residents of the Haosa tribe.
Mr. Hu has a lot of properties in Araja, and this is just one of his most well-known properties. The Oriental Hotel is one of the most upscale hotels in the whole of Araja.
This time the war came so suddenly that not to mention the people, even the king himself was unaware, and when Gorba led his army to occupy Alaja, the Hausa militants and poor people in those armies began to massacre the Ruba civilians in the city and plunder their finances.
Hai Ruyu and his group happened to be resting in the Oriental Hotel at that time, but fortunately, this group of rebels also knew that most of the people living in the hotel were foreigners, and Mr. Hu's staff members of various ethnic groups were there, and Hai Ruyu and they were not harassed after the rebels entered the city that night.
But after all, Mr. Hu is also a strong man who has broken through a huge foundation in a foreign country alone, and after learning that the king has been killed, he also has a plan in his heart.
His business is so large that it has nothing to do with the king's support, and now the backstage has fallen, although he has no grudges with General Gorba, but as a foreigner. He knew very well what these uneducated indigenous Africans would do!
Being wantonly tortured and killed, the beastly nature caused by rape will soon be uncontrollable, and when the time comes, although he has money, he has no force to stop this lawless rebel army, and he has also thought about contacting the embassy, but the embassy only has about a dozen people, and there is no armed force at all, and the best way at the moment is to leave the country immediately.
So that night, he organized his Haosa employees, paid them to protect the property under his name, and the next day through acquaintances, he found a team of mercenaries who followed the rebels, and entrusted them to protect himself and Hai Ruyu, a group of domestic guests, to evacuate at a high price.
The mercenaries had just successfully entered Alaja, and there were no military targets, and in the blink of an eye, why not receive another business, the two sides hit it off, and protected the employer and began to evacuate that afternoon.
Out of humanitarianism, Mr. Hu, most of the foreign guests staying in the hotel, also ran away with him, and also brought a dozen or so Luba employees who had been with him for a long time. Due to the destruction of the communication base station, all communication tools are unusable, except for satellite phones, which can also communicate.
This group of domestic guests are all intellectuals, and most of them are women, and they live in a peaceful country, and they have never experienced this kind of thing, and they all have no masters, so they have to retreat all the way with Mr. Hu.
Professor Hymers learned of the war in Nijalia on TV and immediately contacted the diplomatic department, but Nijariya's communications and communications were all paralyzed, and it did nothing except exchange for some high-sounding words such as "We will definitely organize forces to pick up your daughter ,...... as soon as possible".
At this time, Hai Ruyu's mother remembered Li Qingcang, and immediately asked Hai's father to contact Leopard and Xiao Meng, hoping that they would notify Li Qingcang for help. That's why Li Qingcang just returned to France and there were so many missed calls on his mobile phone.
Since the north of Nijalia is basically dominated by the Muslim Hausa tribe, Mr. Hu led a large group of people towards Cameroon in the southeast, and when they started to leave the city, it was okay, most of the rebels still knew these foreign mercenaries who had just fought side by side with them, and they didn't cause them any trouble!
But not long after they got out of the city, the mobs who were rushing to Alaja from all over the world were not so polite, seeing this large convoy full of all kinds of goods and many beautiful Eurasian women sitting in the car, plus there were Ruba people in the convoy, where did they have any scruples, they went up directly to rob it!
Fortunately, the group of mercenaries hired by Mr. Hu at a high price also worked hard, and immediately called General Gorba to mediate, because it involved ethnic contradictions, Gorba naturally said that he could not do anything and was refused.
More than ten people fought bloodily, and most of the black uncles who were hundreds of black uncles with various weapons were killed and wounded, and they fled. A few of them were injured on their side, and most of the dozen or so Ruba people died.
This time, it also stabbed the hornet's nest, and the rebels and the mob immediately gathered men to start tracking, vowing to drive out the gang.
Tornado's mercenary leader "Storm" Wilson is also a character, and he didn't pick a problem when he saw that the matter had come to this point, knowing that he would definitely encounter rebels in front of him if he went down the road, and it was better to take a desperate gamble than to suffer the enemy on his back.
Immediately took over the command of the entire convoy, and ordered everyone to travel lightly, leave the road and march to the forest on the side of the road. I want to rely on the forest and grassland to get rid of the pursuers behind me.
Although most of the people in the convoy were ordinary people, everyone also knew that the situation was critical, so they got out of the car honestly and started walking.
Mr. Hu's satellite phone was damaged during the fighting, so Ambassador Zhou could not make a call to Mr. Hu.
Mr. Ambassador comforted Li Qingcang and said that Mr. Hu was rich and powerful, so he didn't have to worry too much about the safety of his girlfriend, but he didn't know that the feelings of troubled times could not be handled with common sense, and now Mr. Hu's gang was at a critical juncture.
Li Qingcang naturally did not know the current situation of Hai Ruyu, and after talking with the black security guards who stayed in the hotel for a while, he gave a few hundred dollars as a tip, and the black man told him that Mr. Hu had evacuated in the direction of Cameroon with a group of Chinese and hotel guests.
Knowing the whereabouts, Li Qingcang did not stop after asking about the size and approximate number of people of the convoy, turned the head of the car as if driving in the southeast direction, thanks to the power of the pass, there was no obstacle along the way, and it was very smooth to leave the city.
Then gallop along the road in the direction of the city of Enuku. Most African countries are vast and sparsely populated, and Nijalia is no exception. There are hardly any buildings to be seen on the side of the simple road, and the eye is either grassland or forest.
However, the highway was bustling with activity, with passenger and freight vehicles coming and going, and there were many black men carrying guns of various colors, machetes and spears. Many vehicles deliberately overtook Li Qingcang's pickup, and they didn't do anything after seeing Li Qingcang's complexion.
Li Qingcang thought to himself, these people probably saw that they were Chinese faces, so they didn't come up to bother, where did they think that these mobs just thought that he only had one person and one car, and there was nothing to fish, plus he was a Chinese man, so he was too lazy to rob him.
Just walked along the highway all the way, Li Qingcang was also at a loss in his heart, and now he knew that Xiao Yuer was going to Cameroon along this highway, but he didn't know where he was now?
