Chapter 378: Syrian Night I

Syria is located in the western part of Asia, on the east coast of the Mediterranean Sea, bordering Turkey to the north, Iraq to the east, Jordan to the south, Lebanon and Palestine to the southwest, and Cyprus across the Mediterranean Sea to the west, including the Golan Heights, with a total area of more than 180,000 square kilometers.

Syria is one of the cradles of the world's ancient civilizations, once ruled by the Roman Empire, the Arab Empire and the Ottoman Empire, and a few years ago it was a middle-income country, but since the outbreak of the protracted conflict between the Syrian government and the Syrian opposition, Syria has become synonymous with turmoil and poverty.

Located in the northeastern part of Syria's Latakia province on the border with Turkey, the Turkmen Mountains are strategically important, and the armed front line is entrenched here, which has a great impact on the situation in Syria as a whole.

In recent days, Syrian government forces have temporarily halted military operations because of hostages, which has also made life easier for the inhabitants of the mountains.

Originally, there were many indigenous mountain people in the Turkmen Mountains, and many members of the armed front were native-born mountain people, because of the war, many mountain people had to leave the mountains where they had lived for generations, far away from their homeland, and became refugees, which is also what happened to many Syrian people.

The remaining mountain people are either unwilling to leave their homeland or have nowhere to go, and some are the families of the fighters of the armed front, and staying in the mountains is their only choice.

The life of the Syrian people is very hard, and the life of the people in the Turkmen mountains is even more miserable, and the war has brought not only death, but also shortages of various materials, which is the best portrayal of their dire situation.

In order to protect themselves, the mountain people have learned a lot of survival methods, and they struggle hard in the mountains, hoping that when the day of peace comes, if they can't hear the sound of artillery fire and the roar of planes every day, they will feel very safe and happy.

In the past few days, the entire mountainous area of Turkmen has been quiet, relatively quiet, only sporadic gunshots have sounded, the army has not launched large-scale operations, and warplanes have not circled in the air in groups, only one or two drones have been flying around from time to time, seemingly searching for something aimlessly, but in the end nothing has been found.

Deep in the mountains, it was still a little cold in the middle of the night, and under the smoke of the war, the moonlight in the mountains was a little red, as red as blood.

Under a mountain peak, a faint light looms, a row of caves carved against the mountain wall is the barracks of the armed front, the light is from the depths of the cave, outside the cave entrance, several sentries are chatting, the vigil is very boring, can only talk to relieve boredom.

This is a secret camp, 50 meters underground in the depths of the cave is the dungeon where the international press corps is held, this is a very hidden place, surrounded by mountains, and covered by dense forests, reconnaissance planes can not find this place at all, and their contact with the outside world is very primitive, and no detection equipment can find a single electromagnetic wave, signal, this is a blind spot, is a place that cannot be covered by high technology.

Therefore, these sentries are very relaxed, the vigilance is just a gesture, there will be no outsiders here, this is the safest and most hidden place.

The topic of chaos they talked about was exactly what the Syrian city government and the international coalition forces were most concerned about, the situation of the international press corps.

I heard a sentry say, "How many days is this?, and she's still on a hunger strike, and it's incredible that a female journalist should have such perseverance." ”

Another sentry said, "It's the sixth day, and she's not eating anything, and the most terrible thing is that she looks fine, and it's a miracle." ”

The third sentry knew a little more about the situation, so his words had a certain authority, and he said in a deep voice, "You don't understand, this is not a hunger strike, I heard the general say, this is a kind of Chinese ...... A peculiar way to survive...... Called...... It's called ......" After thinking about it for a long time, he remembered that word that was extremely awkward for him" is called Bigu...... The pronunciation of Bigu ......" is close to Chinese, and the Chinese people will think for a while before they can understand that Bigu, for Huaxia, are relatively mysterious words, but I didn't expect them to pop up in the mouth of this Syrian.

The sentry was more proud to say the word Bigu, and several other sentries repeated Bigu several times, but the pronunciation was miserable, and the sentry corrected it several times.

"Is this what the general said?" the general in their mouths was General Bupoon, the leader of the armed front.

The sentry who would say Bigu said, "The general has been in contact with some Chinese people before, and knows a lot of magical and mysterious things in China, so the general said that this female reporter is not an ordinary person." ”

Hearing that the general valued the Chinese female reporter so much, the sentries were very surprised, and one of the sentries asked, "What is the general's attitude towards her?" ”

Hussein was the sentry who could speak Bigu, and he was also a close associate of General Bupoon, and these sentries respected him, after all, they were the people around the general, even if they didn't have a position of power, they were slightly higher.

Hussein liked this feeling very much, although he knew very well that he had only traveled with the general a few times, worked as a guard, and had no cronies at all, but as long as he didn't say it, no one else would know.

Coughing, Hussein whispered, "The general said, you must be polite to this Chinese female reporter, not too rude, one is that she may have different abilities, the other is that she is a Chinese, and she has no hatred for us in Syria, our enemies are those robbers in the West, and we need the support of the Chinese people." ”

The sentries nodded at the same time, in deep agreement, in fact, they did not know that Hussein was only talking about his personal opinion and some thoughts, and General Bupon had never said these words.

One of the sentries said, "Yes, the Chinese are friendly, they have been helping us before the war, and now I have heard that the Chinese medical team is also treating our compatriots, and they are the messengers sent by Allah." ”

His words were also echoed by his companions, with Hussein saying, "The Chinese are friends, which is why the general is very polite to this female reporter." As for those people, they are all evil spirits sent by the robbers, and sooner or later the general will put them to death. ”

One of the sentries said, "Didn't you say that you still have to use them to negotiate with the enemy?"

Hussein said in a very disdainful tone: "Allah will bless us, we don't need to negotiate, these hostages are just a means used by the general to confuse the enemy, and it won't be long before we will rush out of the mountains and restore peace and calm to Syria, may Allah bless." ”

Others said together, "May Allah bless." ”
