In the early morning of the next day, at the gate of the hotel, Li Lan, who was not sleeping too much, got up early.

Last night, after Ahmad and the others returned, Li Lan and the soldiers had a brief dinner and then began to rest.

However, the intermittent gunfire of one night made Li Lan unable to sleep peacefully no matter what, tossing and turning, and suffering for a whole night.

Now, Li Lan is eager to hurry back to the base and make up for the sleep lost last night.

Bossasso has gained a lot from this trip, and the contact with the local shili is secondary, and the biggest gain is to increase a lot of knowledge and understanding of Somalia.

Lan wanted to go to Bossaso's many refugee camps, but after the events in Rawa he didn't want to stay here any longer.

At the entrance of the hotel, Ahmad and the others had already made preparations, and several soldiers who had been wounded last night had been sent out of the city overnight to join the mobilized soldiers waiting outside the city.

Hearing the news that Li Lan and his party were leaving, Farah also got up early. I couldn't hide what happened last night, but he didn't say anything. From the time Rava invited Li Lan, he had already reached the end of Rava to the end.

In his eyes, although Somalia can be chaotic and all the people are soldiers, they are generally not effectively trained, and the side with a greater chance of winning must see whose soldiers are better, and there is no second way.

Having grown up in a foreign country, he sees this very well. He had been in Bossaso for so long, and he had never seen an armed liliang that could start in formation. Laziness and slackness are common phenomena. And he saw discipline in these soldiers under Li Lan, which was also the biggest reason why he thought that Rava would inevitably suffer.

Farah, who walked to the door of the hotel, just saw Li Lan and his party walking down, and saw Li Lan, who was a little sleepy, Farah stepped forward apologetically, and said with concern: "I'm sorry, friends from the East, the security in Bossaso really needs to be strengthened recently, and the gunshots last night were a little frequent, disturbing your precious sleep." ”

"Mr. Farah is so polite." Li Lan shook her head, tried to sober herself up, and replied.

"Yesterday, I didn't know that Mr. was in trouble, but when I wanted to help deeply, I realized that Mr. had solved all the troubles, but fortunately nothing irreparable happened." Farah said with some disobedience.

"I don't want to trouble Mr. Farah either, yesterday was just a small thing, and we can solve it ourselves." Li Lan said.

"Mr. can go out of the city with confidence today, and no one will offend you on the road, which can be regarded as my little compensation to Mr. After all, you are staying in my hotel, and I am obligated to save you from unnecessary trouble, and last night was my dereliction of duty. The next time Mr. comes to Bossaso, I will definitely not let anyone disturb him. Farah assured with a serious face, he still hopes to befriend Li Lan, if Li Lan also returned in embarrassment last night and paid the so-called protection money, then his attitude today is definitely not the same. It can only be said that Li Lan has the strength to let him take the initiative to make friends.

"I'm a man who is afraid of death, so I'll always try my best to keep myself safe. I appreciate Mr. Farah's kindness, and I look forward to our next meeting, when I may bring something that will please you. Stretching out his hand and not hitting the smiling person, Li Lan did not hesitate to give his verbal check to Farah, who took the initiative to post it.

"Then I'm going to look forward to it." Farah Road.

"Farewell!"

“baibai！”

After saying goodbye to Farah, Li Lan didn't stay long, and got in the car and left.

After leaving the confines of the hotel, the convoy headed west along the main road in Bossaso.

"After Rava died last night, what happened to Liliang, the armed force under his men?" Since Ahmad and the others returned from throwing off their pursuers last night, Li Lan sent several mobilized troops to the city to inquire about the situation.

"According to the report of the soldiers who came back, because Rawa has been killed by us, there is a vacancy in the Shili territory, some small Shili in the west of the city take the opportunity to annex, and other powerful Shili in the area also go to fight, and even the government army has sent people to go, and in one night, Rawa Shili has been swallowed up by many parties. In the early hours of the morning, the multi-party shili withdrew from the west of the city, with the exception of government forces. Ahmed replied that the killing he had experienced yesterday had made the soldier more and more mature.

"Does anyone know we did it?" Now Li Lan doesn't want to push himself to the forefront, he doesn't want to be concerned by all parties before he has fully developed.

"It's not clear, there's one person who knows it absolutely, and that's the owner of the hotel. As for the others, I am afraid that they will not be able to hide from the government. Ahmed thought for a moment and replied.

"If it's just like that, it's not a big problem, and I just hope it doesn't attract international attention." Looking at the deserted appearance on both sides of the street, Li Lan said thoughtfully.

Maybe it was because last night the gunfire was so frequent, and there weren't many people in the streets in the morning, and it was a little cold.

Muhammadi, who was sitting next to Li Lan, heard Li Lan's words and said: "My friend, if this kind of skirmish would attract international attention, then we would be much better off now." Conflicts of this magnitude occur every day in Somalia, and there is not so much energy for the international side to pay attention to. ”

Speaking of this, Muhammadi's voice changed: "However, I think that some countries with a heart will also discover your existence. Of course, you don't have to worry about that, no one will say anything. ”

"Is there really no one going to say anything? Isn't it problematic to know that I'm a Chinese and have my own armed liliang here? Li Lan asked with some puzzlement.

"Ugh! Don't you know? Muhammadi asked in some surprise, he didn't understand that Li Lan didn't know this kind of common sense.

Li Lan shook his head, he really didn't know, he only thought of this question in the morning.

"Impossible! When I'm out of the city and to a safe place, I'll talk to you about it. Mohammadi shook his head.

"Is there any danger along the way?" Hearing Mohammadi's words, Li Lan still had lingering fears about yesterday's attack.

Muhammadi shook his head, "I don't know, there shouldn't be any danger, but it's not safe." There is a big reshuffle in the west of the city, there are too many uncertainties! If the new west of the city is controlled by Rava's subordinates, then we are in a bit of a danger. If not, then we will be safe on this journey. Saying this, Muhammadi sighed and continued: "I hope that the new shili will not be like Rava, otherwise we will have to pay an extra protection fee this year." ”

"Weishenme must be paid?" Li Lan asked with some puzzlement.

"If we don't, we won't be able to transport our livestock to Bossaso Terminal, and our income will be greatly reduced this year. Stranded animals can also strain the barely enough food, which will greatly increase the burden on our livestock feeding. Our losses will be even greater then. Mohammadi explained.

"That's it!" Li Lan also understood Muhammadi's concerns, thinking that this year they had already paid a protection fee to Rawa, but Rawa's era was over, and if the new arrivals were like Rawa, they would inevitably collect them again.

If it is not delivered, the road to the dock will be blocked, and the livestock will not be able to be transported to the dock at that time, and naturally there will be no way to sell it. The animals that cannot be sold will continue to be raised, which will inevitably lead to the inability of vegetation to meet the needs of East Africa, which has little greenery.

"Yes! Now one can only pray that the new shili chief is a devout Muslim, otherwise it will have to be handed over again. Muhammadi said helplessly.

"We Chinese have an old saying, the boat will naturally go straight to the bridge, and there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, so you don't have to think too much." Looking at Muhammadi, who was silent, Li Lan continued: "After you get out of the city, don't rush back and go to me." I think when the time comes, you won't have any troubles. ”

"Hmm!" Muhammadi nodded, he was very curious about Li Lan, since Li Lan invited her, he naturally had no idea of refusing.

Inviting Mohammadi to the base was also a decision made by Li Lan after careful consideration, the identity of the Chinese is too sensitive here, and he needs a spokesperson. Judging by the contacts these days, Mohammadi is a good candidate.
