The convoy finally squeezed out of the city, and there were fewer and fewer people on the road, and the roads were getting worse.

Because there are no street lights, it is completely illuminated by car lights, and the surroundings are pitch black.

The sound of gunfire in my ears is still continuous, and from time to time I can see the sky being instantly illuminated by the shining artillery fire.

Outside the border in Aden, the convoy stopped, and the Yemeni officers said that they could no longer continue the escort, and that it was no longer under the control of their armed forces to go any further, and that they would cause misunderstandings and perhaps exchange fire if they followed the convoy.

From now on, it will be safer to be escorted by the Chinese themselves, and no matter which armed forces they are, they will be very friendly to the Chinese.

Ershun said goodbye to the Yemeni officers and soldiers, thanked them for their help, and gave them some cash as a reward.

The officer refused to accept it, emphasizing once again that his father had been revived by a Chinese doctor.

Bidding farewell to the Yemeni army, the convoy continued on its way.

Now there are only two vehicles in the convoy, with commercial vehicles leading the way in front and trucks following behind.

I walked for about an hour.

In the distance, the bright light of a column of flashlights swept this way, and Ershun asked the business car to stop.

Ershun got out of the car, the business car did not turn off, the lights kept on, through the car lights, Ershun saw more than a dozen heavily armed soldiers.

It's an armed roadcar.

It is also unknown which side of the armed forces set up the roadblock, which is checking the passing vehicles.

Soon, more than a dozen soldiers surrounded the convoy, and two soldiers raised to fight Ershun.

Ershun said that he was Chinese and escorted the Chinese wounded to Oman.

A small leader officer looked Ershun up and down, and then took Ershun's passport.

After confirming that he was Chinese, he immediately changed his attitude and made a gesture for the soldiers to put down their guns.

One of the soldiers, who probably didn't see the gesture, kept holding the gun, and the officer was so angry that he used his hand to press the gun down and reprimanded the soldier.

Yang Ping got out of the truck and just saw this small move, which was a sign of respect for the Chinese.

The officer told Ershun that they would have a routine inspection and hoped to understand and cooperate.

Ershun expressed his willingness to cooperate.

Four soldiers came out of the line, divided into two groups, to inspect the van and the truck, and they told everybody to get out of the car.

Yang Ping had already gotten out of the car, and the two soldiers checked his passport, and when they heard that he was a Chinese doctor, the soldiers gave him a thumbs up.

A soldier climbs into the truck to check inside, Li Ze will stay in the car to take care of Dashun, and Robert, Dodge, and Amin are pulled down from the truck by the soldiers.

When the officer saw Robert and Dodge, his face changed dramatically, and he immediately shouted.

The soldiers, who had just relaxed, immediately returned to their alert.

Amin's passport is Saudi, and Robert and Dodge's faces are not at all Chinese, so they are pulled out by soldiers.

Robert, Dodge, and Amin raised their hands and were brought before the officer by the soldier, who snapped:

"Who are you, Passport?"

At this time, everyone's passports were carried with them, Robert handed over the passport, and the officer flipped through it a few times and said, "You are not Chinese?" ”

Ershun and the translator explained on the side:

"They are doctors, responsible for the safety of the wounded on the road, and they are students of our Chinese doctors."

Apparently they intended to cross-examine one by one.

The officer circled around Robert and said, "Students? How to prove it? Do you have supporting documents? ”

"Supporting documents? The situation is urgent, and we have no official documents. Ershun told the officer.

The officer beckoned and called another soldier, wearing glasses and appearing more cultured than the others.

The officer discussed a few words with the soldiers with glasses on the side, and then said to Ershun: "Since they are the students of Chinese friends, let them speak Chinese?" If you can say it, let them go with you, and if you can't say it, leave it to find out. ”

Speaking Chinese, this is difficult for Robert, Robert immediately said a lot, and also recited a song "Silent Night Thoughts".

It seems that the officer does not understand Chinese either, he asked the glasses next to him, the glasses may know a little Chinese, or have heard Chinese, feel such a meaning, nodded.

The officer pushed Robert to Ershun's side and said to Dodge, "You --- here!" ”

Dodge was pushed up, his eyes were blinded, his head was buzzing, he couldn't speak Chinese, if he knew that Chinese was so useful, he would have learned it a long time ago.

He turned his gaze to Robert for help, and as soon as he was nervous, his forehead was covered with sweat, and his whole body was shivering.

Dodge is a doctor, and it is not like Li Ze will go to a war-torn area to do medical support, how have you ever seen this kind of scene.

After waiting a full few minutes, Dodge didn't say a word.

"You can't go over!"

The officer put away his passport, and two soldiers escorted him aside.

"Robert is a student of a Chinese doctor, these two are Robert's students, that is, they are students of a Chinese doctor student, both doctors working at the IMC Hospital in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, followed Mr. Robert to help carry the stretcher, he does not speak Chinese." Ershun explained for Dodge that he couldn't leave him alone

It's a bit of a tongue-twisting statement, but it makes the relationship very clear.

After listening to the translation, the Yemeni officer felt that the relationship was a little complicated, sorted it out, pointed at Robert and said: "I don't understand your complicated relationship, but understand a little bit, you are a Chinese son?" ”

The officer pointed at Dodge again: "He is a Chinese grandson?" ”

Ershun is not good to dwell on any longer, it seems that this officer understands correctly, to the effect that he is a disciple and a grandson.

"Yes, yes, that's what it means!" Ershun affirmed his understanding.

"Your teacher grandfather is Chinese, and you haven't learned any Chinese? Is it because the brain is stupid? It makes me hard to believe, next? "The officer was running out of patience and asked the soldier to bring Amin up.

Amin's passport is Saudi, and the Saudi coalition is now at war with Yemen, so he is also the target of cross-examination.

"You speak Chinese!"

The officer looked through Amin's passport, there was no room for negotiation, and in his cognition, if he could not speak Chinese, he would be marked with a question mark.

Ah Ming immediately said: "The moon is born on the sea, and the end of the world is at this time!" ”

The officer asked about the glasses next to him, then smiled and patted Amin on the shoulder, returned the passport to him, and cleared the customs.

Now Dodge is left alone in detention.

"We received an order that there was a Chinese convoy to transport the wounded, so that he could leave alone and the rest could now leave." The officer beckoned, and the roadcard was opened.

"How can we help? Do you want to bring some water? ”

The officer asked Ershun enthusiastically.

Ershun said that the water in the car is enough, thank you, can you give Mr. Dodge another chance, he really didn't learn anything Chinese.

If you leave Dodge alone like this, it will definitely not work, Ershun wants to try to communicate again, but if it doesn't work, report to the superior to find a way.

The glasses soldier came up, as if he had some kind of plan with the officer.

The officer changed his mind: "Okay, let him come, I ask him a question, and if he can answer, he will leave, if he can't answer, I can only detain him first and report to his boss to find out his identity before leaving." ”

If it is really detained, and then the identity is ascertained, the process will definitely be long.

Dodge was on the verge of breaking down now, and if it weren't for everyone around to help hold him up, he would have fallen.

"What is the longest river in China?" The officer asked.

The spectacled soldier who came up with the idea seemed to know a lot about China.

The logic of the glasses is very simple, since you are a Chinese grandchild student, your teacher is Chinese so slippery, you must know something about China, otherwise you can't talk about it.

Dodge searched the intestines and scraped his stomach, racking his brains, this is not a joke, the other party is loaded with guns, and it is possible to lose his life accidentally.

This question seems to have been discussed in geography class in middle school.

When I was in middle school in Detroit, there was an introduction to China in the book, which is the longest river?

Robert was in a hurry, but he couldn't help.

Americans don't pay much attention to geography classes, and most of the geography classes in middle school talk about the United States itself, and other countries have a brush-off mentality, and they usually have a serious hegemonic mentality, as if the United States is the world, and what else do they learn about world geography.

What the hell is going on with you, such a simple question.

Robert almost answered for him.

The people next to him also secretly cheered for Dodge: Yangtze River, Yangtze River, say it quickly.

Soybean-like sweat ran down Dodge's forehead, and Dodge grabbed the corner of his coat and gritted his teeth.

It's as if this is a test of life and death.

"It's a pity that you have to stay, the others can go now, good luck to you."

The officer has lost the last patience, as a grandchild student of the Chinese, so ignorant of China, impossible, he must be a foolish guy.

"Let's go, we know that you Chinese are kind and want to take this poor friend out of the country together, but we have our discipline, and the order we received is to let the Chinese pass, and we must carry out the order."

The officer said that he was helpless, and the military order could not be disobeyed, let alone in times of war.
