Sana'a, the capital of the Republic of Yemen, is the political, economic and cultural center with a population of about 1.6 million, and the permanent population of the urban area is estimated to be about 300,000. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Sana'a is located in the Sana'a Basin between the Abang Mountains and the Nakamu Mountains, with a calm altitude of 2,200 meters, a mild climate and abundant sunshine, and the summer temperature generally does not exceed 30 degrees, which is a very suitable climate in the Middle East.

The reason why it became the capital is because Sana'a is a historical city of ****** religion and one of the earliest settlements of mankind. Historically, Sana'a was the transportation hub of the Arabian Peninsula, where merchants gathered, and was ruled by the Persian and Ottoman Turkish empires.

After the success of the Yemeni Revolution in 1962, Sana'a became the capital of North Yemen, and in 1990, South and North Yemen agreed that Sana'a became the capital of the reunited Republic of Yemen.

The city has gone through hardships, and the people who live in the city come and go like flowing soldiers, and time flies, but the city is still the same city. Destroyed and rebuilt, destroyed and rebuilt, if the city has a feeling, then we must be able to hear its moaning for thousands of years.

Today, this city with an ancient history has once again been destroyed by war, and it will either be reborn in the war or degenerate in the war.

The closer you get to Sana'a, the clearer you can see the skyrocketing fire, and the sound of gunfire is incessant, not mixed with the sound of huge explosions.

"Lao Li, you see, half of the area is fighting, and the combat effectiveness of the Houthis is not so strong, how long has it been. Du Xiaofan pointed to the northern city of Sana'a from afar.

"It depends on who the opponent is. Hai Lanqing interjected and replied, "The combat effectiveness of the Yemeni government army is not very good. ”

By this time, Pajero had already driven into the city of Sana'a from the south.

"What should we do? Do we get to a safe place as planned?" Li Mu asked.

Hai Lanqing said decisively, "That's right, Lao Liu is waiting there." ”

Li Mu stepped on the accelerator, and Pajero walked through the panicked refugees who were out of the city, towards safety. Fortunately, there is also a GPS navigation system that can be used, otherwise even if Li Mu's memory is superhuman, it is impossible to remember the location of the safe point in this situation.

Of course, after going through the most complicated part of the road, Li Mu turned off the GPS navigation system. Although Lao Liu told him that it didn't matter, whether the Yankees knew it or not, the safety point would be abandoned after the war.

The safety point is in the southern city, where the current fighting has not yet burned, and not even a single shell has fallen in the southern city except for the sound of gunfire.

In other words, Li Mu and Du Xiaofan didn't feel like they had entered the war zone, but the nervous and panicked expressions of everyone they saw also made the two smell of war. They were sure that after dawn, the city of Sana'a, with a permanent population of 300,000, would be empty.

It's just that what they don't know is that the sudden attack of the Houthis was unexpected by many people, and in addition to the fact that there are still a large number of foreigners staying in the city, there are civilians in the northeast towards Sana'a, and they think Sana'a is still safe!

A safety point generally refers to a place used by intelligence workers to hide in times of crisis, and as the name suggests, it can provide security. Concealment is the first element, and it must be concealed.

However, when Li Mu and the others arrived at the designated safety point, they found that the building in front of the building in the middle of many buildings was very busy, and there were constantly vehicles speeding to send panicked compatriots, and there were also vehicles leaving to go out to carry out tasks.

"If it is not a last resort, Lao Liu will not expose the safety point. Hai Lanqing knew at a glance that the matter was urgent and serious.

After the car stopped, she immediately walked in quickly with her work bag on her back, Li Mu and Du Xiaofan followed closely, and after showing their identities to the guards at the door, the three of them walked in quickly.

It seems that the entire building has been taken down by Lao Liu, and the ground floor is the place of work.

The living room was very busy, and Lao Liu was sweating profusely talking to a map and his subordinates.

"Lao Liu. Hai Lanqing walked over quickly.

Lao Liu turned his head and looked at it, and was overjoyed, "Thank God, you have finally arrived." Come on in. ”

Brought the three of them into the inner room, and suddenly it was a little cleaner.

After taking a sip of water, Lao Liu said in a deep voice, "The Houthis suddenly launched an attack, and the government forces did not use it, and now half of the city has fallen into the hands of the Houthis." The incident happened suddenly, and although the embassy started its work as quickly as possible, it ...... As you saw when I came in, my safe spot was a scrap, and the embassy was overcrowded, so I had to bring everyone else here. ”

"What do you need us to do?" Hai Lanqing asked decisively.

Lao Liu took out a map of Sana'a city and spread it on the table, pointed to the northern city and said, "China State Construction Company has a project in the north of the city, and when the fight started, according to the information currently available, no one could escape. ”

Li Mu and Du Xiaofan suddenly glanced at each other and saw the solemnity in each other's eyes.

"Are you trapped in the north of the city?" Hai Lanqing said in surprise.

Lao Liu nodded slowly, "I checked the project preparation of China State Construction Company, and at least one hundred and twenty workers were trapped. My men have basically moved from the underground to the surface, trying their best to search for and rescue their compatriots scattered everywhere. There is a serious shortage of manpower, Xiaohai, you now have the status of a ready-made diplomat, and I told you in advance that I am afraid that you will be sent to contact the Houthis and ask them to open a safe passage to rescue our people. ”

"In other words, there is no order yet?" said Hai Lanqing with a frown.

Lao Liu shook his head with a wry smile and said, "I don't have the qualifications to give you orders, everyone here must obey the ambassador's orders." The ambassador is trying to find a way to get in touch with the top of the Houthis, and as long as the negotiations are effective, then your task will be down. ”

"Understood, I can go at any time. Hai Lanqing nodded.

She knew that letting a technician like her come forward had something to do with language, but the most important thing was related to their status as a diplomat. Maybe the consulate in Aden has prepared a new identity for them, which means that they have been prepared for a long time.

"Before that, I have a very important thing for you to do. Lao Liu stared at Hai Lanqing.

"You give the order!"

Lao Liu exhaled heavily, and spit out a sentence, "Identify the identity of the personnel." I don't want to be picked up with foreign spies among them. ”

Li Mu and Du Xiaofan's eyes widened suddenly.
