Chapter 476: The Territory of the Lur People
Several military vehicles filed out, and Zhao Yun and Nangong Huang immediately contacted the local government and the Chinese Embassy through the zoo's phone number.
Not long after, two armed off-road vehicles of the same model as those driven by Lyudmila roared in front of them.
The difference is that the roofs of these two vehicles have been removed, revealing the ferocious heavy machine guns on them. The vehicles are filled with heavily armed Moran mercenaries with camouflage on their faces.
"What's going on, where's Lyudmila!" A mercenary man jumped out of the car.
Zhao Yun was about to explain when a red-flag car with the Chinese national flag also drove into the zoo. A middle-aged civil servant with eyes stepped out of the car and introduced himself with his embassy ID. After a while, and then together with Moran's mercenaries, they listened to Zhao Yun tell the whole story.
Zhao Yun was very eloquent and quickly explained the cause and effect of the matter clearly.
Moran's mercenaries were furious: "These damn Iraqi soldiers, we came to help them fight IS and the Kurds, but they actually dared to capture Lyudmila!"
"This is not an act of the Iraqi government forces, but of the Lul tribe." The civilian official of the embassy said solemnly, "I hope all parties will remain calm for the time being. I will go back immediately to seek instructions from Comrade Ambassador."
"The Lur tribe? Oh no, no, no, I don't know what the Lur tribe is! This must be done by IS, and it can only be done by IS! Chekov, call and tell the guys at the headquarters, they can finally find an excuse , sending more manpower to Iraq and expanding operations. Oh, I think Mr. President will also be happy to hear this news. The Russian bombers have been hungry for a long time! "
After saying that, the mercenary leader jumped on the armed off-road vehicle, waved his hand, and shouted: "The rest of you, follow me! We can't let the Iraqis kidnap Russian women in front of a group of Russian men, regardless of them What kind of bullshit is Lur or IS! Besides, that daughter is still our leader!”
Moran's mercenaries screamed and raised their guns, and the armed off-road vehicles came and went in a hurry, then roared away and drove out of the zoo.
"You two comrades, please go back with us. Don't worry, although we are not as flamboyant as these Russian mercenaries, when it comes to the safety of our citizens, Mr. Ambassador will take it seriously." The civilian official raised his eyes and revealed With a 'you know' smile, "Coincidentally, our government is currently negotiating with the Iraqi government on the equity distribution of two oil wells."
"Okay." Zhao Yun got into the car of the civil servant of the Chinese Embassy, "I want to make some calls to the province and the capital, and I hope to use your confidential line."
"What about me?" Adnan, who had escaped, caught up and asked, leaning against the car window.
"Do what you should do. If my brother-in-law comes back and finds that these animals did not successfully board the transport plane to China, you will be dead!" Nangong Huang threatened fiercely while holding the koala.
…
A total of eight military vehicles left Baghdad and headed north. After a few hours, the road became bumpy and seemed to have entered the mountains.
"We should enter the Zagros Mountains in the north, which is the hometown of the Lur people for generations. To the west of the mountains is the area controlled by IS, and to the north is the territory of the Kurds." Lyudmila held on to the people in the carriage with one hand. Holding the handle to prevent him from being knocked off the car, he frowned and asked Su Ming, "Who are you and why did they kidnap you?"
"They think I am the apostle of the fire god they worship, and by the way, the savior who has been sleeping at the bottom of the lake for three thousand years." Su Ming shrugged.
"What? God's envoy? Savior? You?" Lyudmila simply thought she heard wrong, just because of this bullshit reason?
"Don't I look like me?" Su Ming touched his bald head and tried his best to look like a magician.
"Then I am the Virgin Mary!" Lyudmila gestured her middle finger at Su Ming in a very ungraceful manner.
"Hehe, I don't think so either." Su Ming said.
Although the journey was very bumpy, Su Ming still felt sleepy in waves in the middle of the night. As a female mercenary who often lived overnight, Lyudmila remained awake both mentally and physically. State, dutifully acting as a bodyguard, watching vigilantly a squad of fully armed soldiers in the carriage.
Su Ming was not too embarrassed at first, so he just leaned on Lyudmila's shoulder and took a nap. Later, he felt too sleepy and fell asleep directly on her lap.
"How can he sleep in this situation? Doesn't he know it's dangerous? Damn it, why do you have to drool while sleeping!" Lyudmila was speechless and had to put one arm around Su Ming to prevent him from being The bumpy military vehicle was thrown out of the carriage.
If a client was not killed by the enemy, but was thrown out of the carriage and fell to death, Lyudmila would almost be able to end her mercenary career.
Therefore, when the first ray of sunshine in the morning entered the car and Su Ming opened his eyes, he saw Lyudmila's angry face.
"Hiss..." Su Ming took a sip of the saliva that was about to flow out, touched his mouth, looked at the large wet stains on Lyudmila's camouflage pants, and smiled: "Sorry, sorry, that's what's wrong with me. "When you get back, I'll give you a new pair of pants... no, a new set, including underwear and outerwear, all from famous brands!"
"You can go back and talk about it later. Don't blame me for not warning you. Any tribe with faith will have extremely severe punishment for those who pretend to be gods. Direct killing is the gentlest method." Lyudmila said.
"Will you protect me?" Su Ming approached and asked shamelessly.
"I will fulfill the responsibilities and obligations of a mercenary, but do you think it will be useful?" Lyudmila nodded at a squad of fully armed soldiers in the carriage and whispered, "You'd better find a way as soon as possible."
While speaking, the military vehicle stopped, and Emil and Basel appeared outside the car, "Mr. Su, we are here, please get off the car, I will take you to see my father, the High Priest Alayi."
Su Ming and Lyudmila jumped out of the car.
In front of them was a valley surrounded by mountains on three sides. They were now on the hillside, looking down from a high place. There was actually a human village of not small size in the valley, or it would be more appropriate to say a town, with many wooden houses scattered around, enough for several thousand people to live. Under the morning sun, wisps of smoke rose from the roofs of the village.
Led by the soldiers, Su Ming and Lyudmila walked into the tribe where the Luer people had lived for generations. They saw along the way that the lifestyle of the Luer people was not as backward as that of the primitive people in the African tribes. It was very similar to some remote mountain villages in China, and some modern equipment that had long been eliminated could be seen.
But the most common weapons were guns. Almost every adult man in the tribe carried a rifle behind him.
"Please come in, the high priest is waiting for you inside." Basel and Emil stopped at the same time in front of a dome-shaped wooden house in the center of the tribe.
Su Ming was about to take Lyudmila inside, but Emil stopped Lyudmila and said expressionlessly: "Only he can go in alone."
"No, I have the responsibility to protect him, and I can act as an interpreter." Lyudmila said.
"My father is a very knowledgeable man and does not need an interpreter. In addition, this is the territory of our Luer people. If my father wants to hurt him, you can't do anything." Emil said.
Lyudmila's face sank, and she was about to get angry.
"Okay, Emile, don't worry about my safety. In the territory of the Luer people, a foreign woman can't harm the Luer people's high priest." A somewhat old but gentle voice came from the room, "Let the two guests come in."
