Chapter 220 Mogadishu

270 The hotel they booked is located in a so-called "five-star" high-end hotel in the south of Mogadishu, but Chen Xin feels that this hotel looks like a prison, with towering towers, barbed wire, and armed guards...

The room is very simple, there is no air conditioner, and the only electrical appliances are electric lights and fans.

I asked the staff in the hotel, and the staff told them that the hotel star rating in Mogadishu is not calculated according to the level of luxury, but according to the level of security. higher.Therefore, their hotel is considered the best hotel in Mogadishu, and Chen Xin can only say nothing about it.

Two rooms were booked before 270, but in the end, for safety reasons, they decided that everyone would stay in one room for the night.

Chen Xin had his own secrets, so he didn't join them, so he was allocated the single room that 270 originally booked, and the room fee was naturally shared by each of them.

Chen Xin didn't say what he was doing in Mogadishu. 270 and the others seemed to sense the mystery of Chen Xin's identity, so they didn't ask any more questions.

Since both parties had experienced a long flight, everyone went to bed after having a casual dinner that night.

Early the next morning, 270 knocked on Chen Xin's door and said to Chen Xin: "Xiao Yang, we are going to visit a market in Mogadishu later, do you want to go with me?"

Chen Xin shook his head with a smile, and said, "Forget it, you guys go, I have something to do today."

Chen Xin looked away from 270. 270 was obviously much bulging than before. Chen Xin estimated that he had already put on the body armor.

270 handed a note with a number on it to Chen Xindao: "That's fine, by the way, Brother Yang, this is the mobile phone number I just applied for. You can also find someone to apply for a local mobile phone card later. Feel free to get in touch if you need anything.”

Although Mogadishu is in a state of anarchy, Mogadishu has the most advanced telecommunications development in East Africa due to unique background factors, including an urban mobile phone network that can communicate with foreign countries through communication satellites.Internet providers, and even the existence of Internet cafes.

The hotel staff had told them about this yesterday, and Chen Xin was not surprised. He took the note and nodded, "Well, all right, then you go first, and I will call you if there is anything to do!"

270 waved at him.left the room.

Watching the 270 convoy leaving the hotel, Chen Xin closed the doors and windows, drew the curtains, and steel coins appeared out of nowhere.

"Gangbang, how is the power in Mogadishu?"

Gang Bin said: "As long as there is Gang Bin, what else can't be done?"

talking.The steel coin jumped onto the table and turned into a laptop in a blink of an eye.

……

On October 1993, 10, the U.S. peacekeeping force stationed in Somalia dispatched "Black Hawk" helicopters and commandos to encircle and suppress Somalia's largest warlord Aidid. Before that, the warlord armed forces led by Aidid used ambush guerrilla tactics to make the U.S. suffer enough.

This time the U.S. military was plotted against again, and they fell into the mire of street fighting they feared most in the streets and alleys of Mogadishu. Hundreds of ordinary people almost all became anti-American soldiers in an instant.Even some women and children are not proficient in holding weapons and shooting.

Because the narrow streets were blocked by roadblocks, the US follow-up troops could not arrive in time for reinforcements.

After half a day of fighting, 19 US commandos were killed and 2 Black Hawk helicopters were shot down.

The next day, Somali people dragged the body of an American soldier to the streets to celebrate their achievements.

This scene was captured by a reporter and caused an uproar after it was broadcast in the United States. Under pressure from all sides, the Clinton administration had to announce the withdrawal of troops from Somalia.

The Battle of Mogadishu came decades after the Vietnam War ended.The first close-range hand-to-hand combat in the U.S. military, the American writer Mark Bowden (Mark Bowden) collected several of his own special serials on this incident afterwards, and published "Black Hawk Down: A Story of Modern Warfare" in March 1999 (blackhawkdown: astory of modern war), which was later made into a documentary film "blackhawkdown" by British director Ridley Scott The city of Disha is well known.

Conflict in Somalia resumed after all UN peacekeeping forces withdrew from the country in March 1995.

Aidid, the militia leader who created "Black Hawk Fall", declared himself president in mid-1995.But in July 1996, he was shot dead due to gunshot wounds he received in a street fight.

Until today, the urban area of ​​Mogadishu is still divided by warlords and factions, and there are occasional gunfire battles, precisely because of this chaotic situation. On October 2004, 10, the Somali Interim Congress held elections in Nairobi, the capital of Kenya next door, and elected the President of the Republic of Puntland (republic of puntland, another political body that declared independence from Somalia) Abdullah Yusuf? Ahmed (Abdullahiyusufahmed) served as head of state.

However, due to security concerns in the capital, the newly established Somali government did not really return to Mogadishu to perform the business and functions that a central government should have.

At present, the main gang fighting areas in Somalia are concentrated in the northern part of Mogadishu. In contrast, the southern part of the urban area, where there are fewer conflicts, appears to be relatively rich and safe.

……

"Old man, there are hundreds of warlords in Mogadishu, big and small. A few dozen people can form a gang, and hundreds of people dare to call themselves kings. The biggest one is the Somali Al-Shabaab, which controls There are about 7000 to 9000 people in the south-central region of Somalia, and they are closely related to Al Qaeda. In June this year, Kenya sent troops to Somalia on the grounds that the northern tourist resorts were frequently attacked by cross-border attacks. Under the attack of other African Union forces, The al-Shabaab has retreated steadily and has now withdrawn from the capital, Mogadishu. Now there are only two largest warlord organizations left in Mogadishu, one of which is called the Ahdi Brigade, and the leader is Al-Hadi. He is an ordinary member of the Al-Shabaab, and now his influence has grown into a force that can control the situation in Mogadishu, with more than 500 armed personnel in his hands. Another warlord force is called Mogadishu The leader of the Sand People's Guard, Yusuf, mostly fishermen (pirates) under his command. A few years ago, when the countries did not start escorting, he made a lot of money by relying on this. Although he is no longer directly Hijacking a ship or something, but his subordinates are inextricably linked with those pirates, and they are old forces in Mogadishu..."

Steel Penny analyzed the situation in Mogadishu clearly, and Chen Xin also began to have a deep understanding of this city known as the City of Terror.

But he didn't act rashly.

The Americans are still conducting a large-scale search of the container ship Orient anchored at the port of Mombasa, trying to find traces of those drones.

The Vostok has a displacement of 250 tons, and there are thousands of containers alone. It will take at least a few days for the Americans to find the [-] drones.

While China is waging a war of words with the United States, on the one hand, it exerts strong pressure on the U.S. government in the economic field. On the other hand, lobbying companies that are active on Capitol Hill every day are lobbying members of Congress to build momentum in the U.S. Congress. So unwise to annoy the Chinese government to express dissatisfaction.

For the next two days, Chen Xin still didn't go out. 270 and the others were very excited. Every day they came back and told Chen Xin what they saw today. They were even curious about the refugee camps around the city.

But the danger is not without danger. On this day, 270 and the others came back early not long after they went out.

Chen Xin sensed something was wrong from their faces, and asked in confusion, "Brother 270, what happened? Why did you come back so early?"

270 said: "We have received a threatening text message!"
