Chapter 375: The Rescue Organization in Distress

With the idea of building a base in the central region of Somalia, Li Su suddenly came to take a look at his land in the small town of Gadaro, but this town with no water supply, no medical care, and not even a supermarket disappointed him, and the only asset he has now is these refugees, which is obviously still negative equity.

And with the increasing number of refugees, the security situation here is becoming more and more severe, and the young adults who are well fed and have nothing to do have become an unstable factor, when Li Su arrived at the black market, he actually saw that there was already a black market selling guns here.

Li Su's gaze swept over the gunman's body, and they immediately lowered their heads in fear, at least these people understand the Somali philosophy of survival, whoever has the biggest fist has to listen to whom.

"Chief, an organization calling itself the International Red Cross has asked to see you." Li Su was asking the gun dealer where the dollar-a-piece bullets had been bought from the arms dealer, and Kumasi suddenly said to Li Su that he had just received a message from the office area.

Li Su nodded to indicate that he understood, he continued to talk to the gun dealers, Somalia is a country with a flood of guns, and it can be said that it is a paradise for arms dealers, but there are not many big arms dealers like Trof, but some small arms dealers are as many as ants, Li Su does not want the shadow of other arms dealers to appear in his sphere of influence, which is very unfavorable to his rule, because as long as there are guns and money in Somalia, you can organize an army at any time, and he doesn't want these refugees to suddenly riot.

"We picked up these guns." The gunman didn't dare to look directly into Li Su's eyes, and said in a snort.

"You'd better not lie to me!" Li Su showed a fierce look and said, "These guns and bullets are brand new, do you take me for a fool?" ”

The atmosphere became more and more tense, and the indigenous soldiers in neat military uniforms behind Li Su all pointed their guns at the five gun dealers who sold guns, and they would shoot after Li Su said a word, killing people in Somalia was as normal as killing chickens.

The surrounding Somalis looked sympathetically at the five gun dealers. But no one dared to step forward and say more, those soldiers with loaded guns were not joking, hesitated for a moment, and a gun dealer said, "This is really what we picked up, there is a wooden box on the side of the road, we opened it and saw that it was guns and bullets." The other four also kept nodding their heads.

Li Su stared into their eyes, feeling that they were not lying, and turned to Kumasi. "Confiscate all the guns and ammunition, compensate them a little money, and tell them that no one is allowed to sell guns privately."

"Yes, Chief." Kumasi asked a few soldiers to collect their guns and offered a few hundred dollars to some of the gun dealers to sue them for not being punished.

At this time, Li Su had already gone to the office area, he was still an illegal armed force, and he had not been recognized by any organization so far, which made him a little passive. Because of that, he won't get any international support, so I'll talk about building Gadaro, even if he goes to the engineering company in Mogadishu. They are also reluctant to come here to help him build this place, after all, the transitional government is an internationally recognized organization, and it seems that he will have to talk to the Somali national government about this and get a formal identity. And if the gun dealer's words are true, then he has to worry about one thing, that is, there must be forces against him. The goal was simple, to let these refugees riot, and that would be enough to destroy the foundation he had worked so hard to build.

When he arrived at the door of the office, eight soldiers were holding guns and looking at five men and one woman, one of them black, four white, and yellow, they seemed to be very interested in Li Su's soldiers, constantly looking at their guns and military clothing, but it is no wonder that the soldiers in this part of Somalia are basically poor and cannot wear regular military uniforms.

"Chief, they say they're from the International Red Letter Society and want to see you." One of the Native soldiers asked, "Tasks such as standing guard are now performed by Native soldiers, and the Terminators are only responsible for training them and performing advanced tasks.

Li Su waved his hand to let the soldiers put down their guns, this is finally in line with international standards, but it can't scare everyone away, he said: "I am Chief Hatton, the head of the Peace Front, and welcome the international red-letter medical team here." ”

Seeing Li Su's enthusiasm, the five people showed embarrassed expressions, and the only white woman among them said, "I'm sorry, Chief Hatton, we are not here for international support, we were attacked and escaped here, I hope Chief Hatton can help us get back to Mogadishu, we have seen reports about you in the newspapers, it is said that you are a person who advocates peace, of course, we are willing to provide three thousand dollars a day for security, because we really don't have any extra money on us." ”

Li Su was slightly disappointed, he thought that the international community began to recognize him, but Li Su has always been full of respect for these people who have the courage to go deep into dangerous places to seek death and help the wounded, this little favor can not be said to be still helped, so he said: "As the newspaper said, I am a peaceful person, I will help you, but I am afraid that it will not work today, it is getting late, it is too dangerous to go to Mogadishu at this time, and there is no need for 3,000 US dollars in security expenses." ”

Because Somalia is known as the most dangerous place in the world, because the first thing that any foreigner who comes to Somalia to get off the plane is to hire security personnel, which also leads to the development and prosperity of the Somali security industry.

The six of them also spent a lot of time in Somalia, so they naturally understood what Li Su meant, they just held on to a glimmer of hope, and in their impression, the warlords of Somalia were all murderers and strong. Traitor, it is desperate to ask for help in such a hurry, because the left and right are dead.

"God, thank you Chief Hatton, God will bless you." The white woman said that she was about twenty-six years old, and tears of excitement came out at this time.

Li Su smiled mildly, took them into the office and asked them about their situation, it turned out that they were suddenly attacked by unknown forces on the way from Garoway, the capital of Puntland, to Mogadishu, and the car in which six security guards were riding was hit by rockets, all of them died, and Gadaro was a junction on a nearby road, and they suspected that the attacker was Al-Shabaab, and the small town of Gadamaro, which was controlled by the Peace Front, was the sworn enemy of Al-Shabaab, so they did not hesitate to break into the area of Li Su's control.

"You're really lucky." Li Su lit a cigar and said, "If this is an area controlled by other warlords, I'm afraid you would have been kidnapped or beheaded by now." ”

The six people showed a frightened expression when they heard this, but they didn't believe Li Su now, the vigilance in his eyes, Li Su saw clearly, he has now figured out the identities of the six people, the only black person is an official of the Somali Transitional Government, responsible for receiving international rescue agencies, among the four white people, the woman's name is Elizabeth, a reporter from Country Y, a reporter from the International Herald newspaper, and the other three men are from different Western countries, and this yellow man surprises Li Su the most, he is a Z country and a doctor, However, Li Su now looks like a Somali native, so he can't see his fellow countrymen, and his eyes are full of tears.

After chatting with the six of them for a while, but the sky was darkening at this time, Li Su asked Kumasi to prepare a simple dinner for them to eat, and he was very interested in this Elizabeth, not because she was beautiful, but because Li Su figured out that she was a media person to win a little support for himself in the world.

"Chief Hatton, the international community has always been curious about you, because you quickly occupied the town of Gadaro, which Al-Shabaab had entrenched for several years, and even the transitional government could not do this, and did you have other state support behind you, like the warlords who suddenly came out of the cottages."

After a simple meal, Elizabeth suddenly asked Li Su a question, which frightened the other five people into pale, the most taboo thing in Somalia is to ask their identity and background, there was once a reporter who was shot because he asked a Somali a few questions about pirates, they knew that Elizabeth was very bold, but they didn't expect it to be so big.

As a party to the party, Li Suke did not have so many thoughts, he said: "We are indeed from an ancient tribe, the king of Somalia four hundred years ago was from our tribe, because we don't want to see Somalia has been in turmoil, we just walked out of our land, we don't have any state support behind us, these arms are all exchanged from the arms dealers with the treasures handed down by the tribe." ”

Elizabeth listened and took notes, and the others were relieved to see that Li Su was not angry.

"But we are still overestimating our own capabilities, these huge numbers of refugees are now a burden to us, our livestock and food are quickly becoming unsustainable, and we want the international community to see this, Gadaro is forming one of the largest refugee camps in Somalia, and although we can provide them with safe shelter, we cannot continue to provide them with food and medical care, where people die of hunger and disease every day." ”

Elizabeth wrote the last word, closed the notebook and said, "You are a kind chief, we have also seen the situation here, please rest assured, I will definitely reflect the situation here to the world, and strive for international help to reach here, but I hope you will not rob the refugees like other warlords."
