They packed their bags and packed all the valuable items that they could take with them.
They dismantled the construction vehicles surrounding the outpatient clinic building, filled the vehicles with fuel, and tied a row of plastic fuel tanks on the roof of the driver's compartment.
At noon local time, Ambassador Yu Yong and the project manager of the project, Zhang Zhongzhi, led a team together. They led two Mitsubishi off-road vehicles and a muck truck, and they advanced toward the municipal area of Uriel city vigilantly.
There were a total of ten armed employees accompanying them. These employees all had military experience in the country. If they encountered a small group of robbers, they would definitely be able to destroy their souls.
Fortunately, the journey was peaceful. Other than the frequent sounds of gunfire around them, no one was stupid enough to come over to die.
When they arrived at the municipal area, the police officers who had disappeared from the streets a few days ago were gathered there. They changed into government army uniforms and hid behind the temporary barricades and bunkers. With an indescribably complicated expression, they looked at the team of Chinese vehicles passing by.
It was the confusion about the future and the desire to continue living.
Perhaps, these police officers had the same thoughts as their mayor. If they failed, where could they run to?
Uriel's mayor, Kelvin, was already waiting in front of the city hall building. Downstairs, there were twelve relatively new looking minibuses. These minibuses were used as public buses in Uriel. Each car had twenty-one seats, so it could seat thirty-five people.
Twelve was more than enough. The workers could even save the space in the compartment of two muck trucks to carry luggage that could not be carried.
Ambassador Yu Yong was standing in front of them with a leather bag containing 80,000 USD.
It was time to part. Mayor Kelvin forcibly pulled out a crying and unwilling tall girl from a Toyota off-road vehicle.
Including the ambassador, all the workers' eyes lit up!
This was a girl with a typical mixed-race face and skin color. Her father, Mayor Kelvin, did not have the kind of skin that was so dark that it was almost black. His skin color was similar to that of the previous US president, Barack Obama. Perhaps it was because she was a girl and her mother was French, but the girl pulled out by Kelvin was even whiter than a large number of Chinese workers at the construction site.
She had bronze skin, a height of about 1.75 meters, and her facial features were exquisite and well-defined. At first glance, people could not help but associate her with a supermodel.
No wonder her father insisted on sending her out. Beauty was often a sin.
"This is my daughter, Marsha. Mr. Ambassador, I will hand my daughter over to you. I beg you, you must take her out!" Mayor Kelvin's eyes were red. At this moment, he did not dare to look directly at his daughter's pearl-like crying eyes. He could only firmly hold his daughter's wrist and solemnly hand her over to Ambassador Yu Yong.
"I'm not going. What will you do if I leave?"
"I am a French citizen. I don't believe they dare to do anything to me." This girl named Marsha was a little taller than the ambassador. She struggled violently, wanting to prove herself with different nationalities and statuses. In the end, before she could say anything, she was interrupted by her father's slap.
"Stupid!" Mayor Kelvin roared with red eyes, "The U.S. Embassy alone has been bombed more than ten times. What is your French nationality? If you don't, I'll kidnap you and take you away. "
"Mr. Ambassador, please take her away."
"Mr. Mayor, take care..."
"I wish you victory. I promise to take Marsha to Nigeria Airport." Ambassador Yu Yong held Mayor Kelvin's hand firmly, and then very decisively, signaled two employees to come and take the girl away.
Eighty thousand US dollars could not buy twelve minibuses, so it could only buy two. The engineering materials left on the construction site, such as several excavators, were valuable, but it was hard to say who would eventually fall into their hands. Besides, those things were far less convenient than US dollars.
Ambassador Yu Yong was also a person with children. Seeing this scene, he could not help but empathize as a father.
The girl cried and was dragged into the car. When the motorcade left, Mayor Kelvin suddenly sat on the ground and cried.
In the minibus bumping on the road, Ambassador Yu Yong put Marsha's passport into a purse with 80,000 US dollars. The passport showed that the girl was only nineteen years old. Ambassador Yu Yong wanted to comfort her in English. Unexpectedly, Marsha suddenly stopped crying and looked out of the window with some incredible eyes.
At this time, the motorcade had driven out of the government-controlled area and was moving on the road to the hospital construction site.
On both sides of the road, there were vehicles burning.
Some shops were smashed open with tools, and it was a mess inside. There was even a shop owner lying in a pool of blood, his hands stretched out of the door, motionless like a plastic dummy on the ground. In the distance that could not be seen, black smoke rose from the ground like a baobab tree.
Leaving the city hall that was guarded by a large number of police, this land that had lost its order was ruthlessly shocking to the people who saw it for the first time.
"Bang ~"
A crisp gunshot came from the side of the road.
After the gunshot, on another lane separated by greenery, a Hyundai car lost control and hit a street light. Then, three black men with AKs and masks rushed out from the intersection. As they ran towards the Hyundai car, they looked at the motorcade that roared from the other side with vigilance.
As a result, the three men saw dozens of modified Type 81 assault rifles with folding stocks pointed at them from the car window.
The confrontation only lasted for five seconds, but in these five seconds, the 19-year-old Martha suddenly understood her father's difficulties.
Ambassador Yu Yong breathed a sigh of relief. This way, he did not need to persuade her. Then, he waved his hand to let the two guards no longer look at Martha. The two guards reluctantly nodded and left their seats.
"Martha, from this moment on, you are a diplomatic staff of our Huaxia Empire in Antiman."
"Your name is Yu Lele. Your parents are both in Huaxia, so you are also a Huaxia citizen." Ambassador Yu Yong randomly came up with a name and let Martha repeat it with him.
"But … but I don't know how to speak Chinese, and I don't have a Huaxia passport …" Martha curled up in her seat, her deep eyes filled with confusion and helplessness.
"It's okay, other people don't understand Chinese anyway. Later, you can learn a few sentences of Chinese from our people. If you need to speak, just keep repeating those few sentences."
"Just say that you lost your passport. When we reach the hospital later, change into our embassy uniform, and I will take a photo of you to get a certificate of zero hour."
"Remember, no matter what you encounter on the road, don't be afraid."
…
In the process of learning a few sentences of Chinese nervously, the majestic convoy finally drove into the hospital construction site.
More than 300 employees and dozens of Chinese embassy staff began to line up in an orderly manner to get on the vehicles. Everyone was wearing the construction site uniform with Chinese characters printed on it. Their personal luggage was stuffed under their seats, and the things that could be taken away were thrown into the cloaks of the two muck trucks.
At the same time, two Mitsubishi SUVs, three muck trucks, and twelve minibuses were all pasted with the Chinese flag and a slogan written in their own language, [Huaxia construction workers returning to the country, please let them pass.]
Xu Yansi was the only female among the embassy staff. She was 30 years old this year, and she had been sitting next to Martha ever since she got on the vehicles. She kept comforting the young lady who had been traumatized.
After the last headcount, it was only slightly more than ten minutes before two o 'clock.
Ambassador Yu Yong took a deep breath, took out his satellite phone, and called China to report the situation.
Five minutes later, accompanied by sporadic gunfire.
The mighty convoy started the engine again and moved toward the western border line.
The whole journey was 400 kilometers, and three-quarters of the whole journey was a bumpy dirt road. If there was no accident, the convoy would stay in a small city called Belmar for one night, stay until dawn, and then continue to Nigeria.
Before getting on the bus, Ambassador Yu Yong burned all the official documents exchanged with the government of the country, and he sighed and said a sentence.
