Chapter 893 What a Coincidence

Gao Yang and the others sat in a restaurant that served good local Baghdad dishes. It was not yet dinner time, and there was no one else in the restaurant except Gao Yang and the others, but the food was not served very quickly.

Except for the cucumber yogurt salad and hummus that were served very quickly at the beginning, the rest of the dishes were slow. Then Gao Yang discovered why almost all Iraqi dishes are grilled, grilled lamb, grilled chicken, all dressed in iron The large pieces of barbecue were grilled on the grill, and even the tomatoes were slightly burnt before being served.

After seeing the food, Cui Bo said blankly: "Why does it feel like eating barbecue in China? Brother Yang, can you drink some beer? Drink less, you won't make a mistake, otherwise , I don’t feel good eating this barbecue.”

Gao Yang also felt uncomfortable not drinking some beer, but he knew that Iraqis were not allowed to drink because of religious beliefs, and the restaurant owner and waiters were all Iraqis, so he didn't know if he could drink.

Gao Yang looked at Porovich and said, "Can I drink beer here?"

Porovich laughed and said: "As long as you give me money, there is nothing that can't be done here."

Porovich turned to the waiter and shouted, "What beer are you having today?"

The waiter came forward, bowed slightly and said, "Corona, Budweiser, and Lion. But the Lion beer was just delivered today and it's not very cold yet."

Porovich clapped his hands and said: "I want both Corona and Budweiser, three dozen first, and then some lemons."

Gao Yang was afraid that drinking would cause trouble, but it was okay to drink less. His drinking capacity was not good, but people like Li Jinfang and Grolev drank beer as water at first, and they all knew how to measure it and would not drink it. Too many.

Eating barbecue. Drinking beer. Gao Yang really found some of the feeling of having barbecue with friends in China.

Even food and drink. The atmosphere was good, and Porovich was also in high spirits after seeing some hope of returning to his old job. However, after a short time, he was completely different from the decadent old man who worked part-time when Gao Yang first saw him. .

Come to think of it, Porovich turned out to be a big shot. After being kicked out by Big Ivan, he could only stay in this small corner of the Green Zone. Gao Yang must not be happy, and now Gao Yang has promised him to tell Ulyanko that although it is impossible for Porovich to regain his original status, there is always hope that he can return to the big stage he is familiar with and continue to make waves.

Gao Yang couldn't drink enough, and after drinking four small bottles of beer, he didn't dare to drink anymore, but Li Jinfang and Grolev drank more than ten bottles each without feeling dizzy.

Cui Bo also drank a few bottles. He picked up a bottle of beer and

No need for a screwdriver, just put it in your mouth and bite off the bottle cap. Then he drank half the bottle and said with a smile: "It's really hot here. It's almost the same as Libya, but I can't drink beer in Libya, and there's no place to buy it. Even if it's available on the black market, I can't afford it. Fake, a bottle of beer costs ten dollars, hey, by the way, how much does a bottle of beer here cost?”

Porovich smacked his lips, picked up the beer and took a sip, then smiled and said: "Of course it is more expensive in a country where alcohol is prohibited, but here, I tell you how much a bottle of beer costs, just in case you don't believe it."

Gao Yang smiled and said: "No matter how expensive it is, it's just beer, how expensive can it be?"

Polovic held a bottle of Corona and said with a smile: "This crap is only two dollars in other places, but here, it's a hundred dollars a bottle. Don't think it's too expensive. See those outside. Are there people here? With them here, the demand for crappy beer worth a hundred dollars a bottle exceeds the supply.”

Gao Yang was a little dumbfounded and said: "No way, so cruel? Are everyone here stupid? Work your life in exchange for money and then come here to drink beer worth a hundred dollars a bottle?"

Porovich smiled and said: "So what? Let me tell you, in the Green Zone, money is not money, it is just paper. Don't begrudge these papers while you are alive. You can exchange them for anything you can enjoy. Just don't Carry a bunch of waste paper with you."

After finishing speaking, Porovich smiled and said: "So, it's not expensive if I sell good bullets for one dollar a round, right?"

Gao Yang picked up a bottle of beer and said with a smile: "I have to get another bottle of such an expensive beer. If I leave here, I won't be able to drink such an expensive beer."

Jason said with an angry look on his face: "It's more expensive than the whiskey we sell at home! I'm a little reluctant to drink it, knowing that a bottle of beer costs one hundred dollars, Frank, my heart is bleeding."

Porovich laughed and said: "You sell wine at home? How about using my channel to bring it in and sell it for a thousand dollars a bottle, and we will split the bill in half. Also, although beer is expensive, don't save money for me. Starting this afternoon I’ll be selling my bullets for three dollars a round, which will soon pay for our drinks.”

Gao Yang smiled bitterly and said: "You, you are really cruel, let me tell you, aren't you afraid that they will smash your shop?"

Porovich said proudly: "They dare! Other arms dealers can also come in, but if he enters the Green Zone and sells a bullet, don't even think about leaving the Green Zone. He will definitely die in Baghdad. So only I can sell here, this is a monopoly! If you want to use good bullets, don’t be too expensive!”

Cui Bo said anxiously: "What about if they buy outside the green zone?"

Porovich shrugged and said: "Then I have no choice but to leave the Green Zone and go to Baghdad to buy arms. Let's put it this way, you can try it if you are not afraid of death."

After finishing speaking, Porovich waved his hand again and said: "Drink!"

At this moment, a middle-aged white man wearing US military desert camouflage military pants and a quick-drying shirt on his upper body passed by the door of the hotel and glanced at Gao Yang and the others.

The hotel is not closed and has no air conditioning, but it is a semi-open hotel with a shed overhead to provide shade. You can clearly see the scene inside from the outside.

After taking a look, the middle-aged man walked in aggressively, stood behind Gao Yang, and said in a deep voice: "Guys, you know, you are in trouble."

Gao Yang had his back to the door. He raised his head and looked at the people around him. Eileen, who was sitting opposite Gao Yang and facing the visitor, raised her eyebrows and said, "What's the trouble?"

The middle-aged man sighed and said, "It's so hot. I'll take a sip of beer and tell you, you know..."

At this moment, Porovich didn't even raise his head and just whispered: "Get out."

The middle-aged man who was reaching out to grab Gao Yang, who only had half a bottle of beer in his hand, stopped, glanced blankly, and whispered: "Russian brother?"

Porovich glanced at the middle-aged man and said, "Get out."

The middle-aged man immediately nodded and bowed: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't see you here, I'm sorry, I'm going to get out, I'm going to get out."

The middle-aged man ran out quickly. After the strange middle-aged man left, Gao Yang asked curiously: "Who is this guy? What does he want to do?"

Porovich said disdainfully: "He is just a scumbag who eats and drinks. He thinks you are newcomers here and wants to scare you. Then he drinks a few bottles of beer here. He is a loser."

Gao Yang couldn't help but smile: "There are still people like this."

Porovich shook his head and said: "This guy is useless. He can't survive at all. He has been hiding in the Green Zone and relying on deceit and abduction to get by. He might be beaten to death one day."

Grolev smiled and said: "We are all useless, why don't you leave here quickly, what are you doing here?"

Porovich smiled and said: "This guy is a Yankee. If he is willing to leave, some people will pay for his air ticket. But this guy has no shame to leave. He has been hanging around here. Who knows what he is thinking." What, you know, this guy killed more than a hundred people at once."

Gao Yang heard this and said, "There's a story here. What's going on?"

Porovich smiled and said: "I forgot which company this guy came from, but he came to Iraq very early. Their company is employed by the US military, providing logistics and other services, and they can also get air force If anything happens, we can call for a plane to drop bombs."

Porovich picked up the beer, signaled everyone to drink, drank a bottle of beer, and said with a smile: "This guy is a retired veteran. He has been responsible for fire instructions. Once, they had to escort something or had some mission. It was a large convoy anyway, but it was attacked, and then this guy called for an air strike."

After putting down the empty wine bottle, Polovich said with a gloating smile: "I don't know if this guy was on drugs or drunk that day. In short, after he was attacked, he called the plane and then flew to the nearest Two F-15s were rescued, and guess what? This guy reported the wrong coordinates. When the plane came to take a look, wow! It was a huge convoy. After confirming the coordinates with this guy again, it was directly a cluster. Bomb, haha, needless to say the result, right?"

Gao Yang swallowed and said, "No way, no, you'd better tell me the result."

Porovich made a flowering gesture with his hands, and then shouted loudly: "Boom! Boom, boom, boom! A convoy of more than a hundred people were all sent to the sky! Seven of his comrades-in-arms were Americans. , there are many Iraqi employees, and the entire convoy’s supplies are all gone!”

Gao Yang said with a look of astonishment: "No, what a coincidence!"

It was indeed a coincidence that while fighting in Colombia, Gao Yang discovered that Knight Schumacht had a psychological shadow on cluster bombs. After asking, he found out that he had been bombed by a cluster bomb in Iraq.

To be precise, Knight saw the power of cluster bombs, but Gao Yang remembered clearly what Knight said, and now he has met the pair Porovich mentioned.

Porovich looked at Gao Yang and said, "What's wrong? What's such a coincidence?"

Gao Yang shrugged and said: "A friend of mine, he should be an eyewitness to the incident you just mentioned, but he said that seventy or eighty people died, not more than a hundred, but it should be the same accidental injury. Incident."

Porovich waved his hand and said with a smile: "Aren't they being attacked? Almost all of them were killed by cluster bombs. Then, the attackers, who had done a lot for them by the Americans, took the opportunity to kill the remaining people. They slaughtered them all, and if someone hadn’t happened to pass by and rescue them, no one would have survived.” (To be continued.)
