Chapter 2840 Yellow Sand All over the Sky
Before the sandstorm hit, the tripartite joint exploration convoy drove off the road and quickly rushed to the side of an abandoned building closest to the road, trying to use the abandoned building to resist the sandstorm.
This is a small brick-concrete building, about three stories high, standing on a piece of sand beside the road. Judging from its structure, it should have been a roadside hotel in the past, with a restaurant downstairs.
Like the buildings in many Yemeni towns along the way, this small building is also covered with bullet marks, and has been bombed more than once, and has long since become a piece of ruins, even the roof has been bombed and collapsed.
Fortunately, this abandoned small building is strong enough, has a certain height, and is right next to the road, so it is no problem to use it as a barrier to resist sandstorms.
When the convoy drove to the side of the abandoned small building, they quickly lined up under the command of Seaman and others.
The vehicles carrying the members of the tripartite joint exploration team were placed in the middle, and outside were the vehicles of Mossad agents and members of the 13th Israeli Commando.
As for the Yemeni military and police vehicles, they are at the outermost edge, separated from the vehicles of the members of the tripartite joint exploration team!
As soon as the convoy stopped, a sandstorm swept in. The yellow sand in the sky swallowed up the whole world in an instant, and the sky suddenly darkened, entering the night directly.
"call!"
The gust of wind whizzed past, engulfing countless yellow sand and gravel, like waves, continuously beating on the vehicles everyone was riding on.
"bang bang bang"
The stones rolled up by the sandstorm were like a dense rain of bullets, smashing hard on the car, and even gave people a feeling of machine gun shooting, which was quite terrifying.
The members of the tripartite joint exploration team sitting in the car covered their mouths and noses one after another, and stared dumbfounded at the yellow chaotic world outside the car window. Many people's eyes were full of fear.
At this time, everyone can only see the sky full of yellow sand and gravel, and nothing else can be seen.
Even the other vehicles that are close at hand have been completely swallowed by the sandstorm, and they can't be seen at all!
Although the doors and windows of the vehicles everyone was riding were closed tightly without leaving a single gap, there was an earthy smell in all the vehicles, and a layer of yellow sand soon fell.
Fortunately, these vehicles have been specially modified,
All vehicles have been replaced with bulletproof glass, which is strong enough, so there is no need to worry about the window glass being smashed by the stones in the sandstorm for the time being.
With the cover of this abandoned small building on the side of the road, you don't have to worry about your vehicle being swept away by this sandstorm, and being swept away to an unknown place!
"Wow! This is like the end of the world, it's too scary! It's hard to imagine, how can humans survive in such a harsh natural environment?"
David said with emotion, he kept coughing as soon as he opened his mouth.
The same words sounded in the other vehicles of the tripartite joint exploration convoy. Only those members of the exploration team and experts and scholars from Israel took it for granted and did not make a fuss!
Ye Tian looked out of the car window, then said with a sneer:
"People in this country are now busy killing each other all day long, killing frantically for profit or survival, who has the heart to build a country, and who cares how bad the environment here is?
Not only Yemen, but many countries in the Middle East and Africa, why not? Those who hold the power and the army are crazily grabbing wealth, who cares about the environment?
Relying on the oil buried in the ground, those guys earn a lot of money and live a life of luxury and luxury, while the people living at the bottom can only struggle on the line of life and death! "
Hearing this, David couldn't help but nodded, and a trace of sympathy appeared in his eyes.
This sandstorm didn't last long, it came suddenly and went very quickly.
Ten minutes later, the terrifying sandstorm passed, and the huge sand wall tens of meters high swept into the distance.
The sky lit up again, and it went from night to day in a blink of an eye.
Although there is still a lot of dust outside, it no longer affects the sight line, and the convoy can drive on the road again.
At this time, looking at the many vehicles of the tripartite joint exploration team, each vehicle has a thick layer of yellow sand on it, and the car body is even more scarred, with traces of stones everywhere.
Fortunately, the window glass of that car was not smashed, so there was no need to waste time changing the glass.
Looking at the gradually receding sandstorm and the thick layer of yellow sand and gravel on the vehicle they were riding on, everyone in the tripartite joint exploration team felt lingering fear and let out a sigh of relief!
The situation of the Yemeni military and police vehicles guarding the outermost perimeter is quite miserable. The glass of many vehicles has been broken.
However, these guys have lived here all year round, are very familiar with the environment here, and have rich experience in dealing with sandstorms, so they have long been accustomed to this situation!
This sudden sandstorm did not cause any personal injury, such as non-combat attrition, except for smashing the glass of some vehicles and making them more embarrassed.
On the periphery of the convoy, Seaman took people out of the car and walked over to the Yemeni military police to negotiate with them.
Members of the tripartite joint exploration team staying in each vehicle shook off the dust on their bodies, wiped the dust on the instrument panel, and prepared to start the vehicle and set off again.
Soon, Seaman and the others finished their negotiations and returned to their car.
Immediately afterwards, Seaman's voice came from the intercom.
"Steven, we can start now. Several vehicles of the Yemeni military are lying down and cannot be started. Although the other vehicles can be started, the windows of the vehicles are basically broken, and they are also very embarrassed.
This means that the number of Yemeni military and police escorting the tripartite joint exploration team is smaller than before. Of course, it is not ruled out that the Yemeni local armed forces will send people to continue to follow and monitor us.”
Hearing the announcement, Ye Tian immediately picked up the walkie-talkie and said:
"The number of Yemeni military police and vehicles following the protection of the tripartite joint exploration team has decreased? For us, this is a good thing! I hope that all those guys will withdraw, so that I can rest assured!
I would rather walk through the sandstorm just like that than go with these heavily armed Yemeni military police. Who knows when these guys will point their guns at us and carry out robbery! "
After chatting for a while, Seaman issued an order to start again, led the team to drive on the road again, and dragged the vehicles stuck in the sand out one by one, and dragged them onto the road.
Soon, this huge convoy set off again, heading straight to the east of Sanaa, the capital of Yemen.
Looking at the convoy at this time, it is very different from when it first entered Yemen. Every car is covered with a yellow coat, and every car is full of scars.
Especially the Yemeni military and police vehicles that escorted the convoy seemed to have just rushed out of the desert battlefield. None of the vehicles had intact glass, every vehicle was scarred, and everyone was ashamed and embarrassed!
In the following time, the convoy has been driving quickly in Yemen without encountering too much trouble.
During this process, although the convoy encountered two attacks, they were all sniper shots from the desert and did not cause any losses. Moreover, the accompanying Yemeni military and police took over the two attacks!
When the time came to around two o'clock in the afternoon, the tripartite joint exploration convoy arrived at a small city in the northwest of Sana'a, the capital of Yemen, Hajah City!
The ruins of the ancient city where Solomon's treasure may be buried are located in a desert outside the city of Hajie.
At this time, Sanaa, the capital of Yemen, and the city of Hajj were all controlled by Yemeni rebels. This area is the core control area of Yemeni rebels.
As for the Yemeni government, they were driven to Aden, which is located at the mouth of the Red Sea.
When the convoy arrived here, everyone had to be vigilant, not only to beware of the Yemeni rebels outside, but also the rebels in Hajah.
According to Ye Tian's instructions, the convoy did not enter the city of Hajie, but bypassed the devastated town and headed straight for the desert where the ruins of the ancient city are located!
