Latakia is also not a place of utter silence, with government forces regularly using helicopter gunships to engage in exchanges of fire with opposition forces, further escalating the clashes in recent days. Artillery fire can be heard in many places, and the war has spread to the surrounding areas of the city.

Rumours of heavy clashes between government forces and opposition forces are heard everywhere, including in nearby streets, where artillery fire and explosions occur from time to time. The city is full of ash and smoke, and helicopter gunships are bombing and clearing the opposition.

Government forces also cordoned off several streets in the city and set up several additional checkpoints. Many local residents have fled their homes, the streets are almost empty, most shops and restaurants are closed, except for the overcrowded hospitals.

It took Lin Rui and Yelena a long time to find a makeshift hospital and hastily stitch up the wound on their backs. There were wounded people everywhere, both military and civilian. The doctor who sutured the wound had been working continuously for a long time, and he had forgotten how many patients he had to deal with in a day, and he was so busy that no one had time to count. Even the registry office for the outpatient clinic has been eliminated because there could be a few more beds in that place.

Even hospitals are not safe places and are often attacked. Most of the hospital buildings were destroyed by artillery fire, reportedly by rocket attacks by the opposition, and by mistake, by US troops who attacked terrorists by air. In war-torn areas, everything is chaotic. The language is confused, the thoughts are confused, and even the actions are confused.

Government tanks roamed the streets, pedestrians hid in narrow alleys, and armed opposition snipers were everywhere. I don't know when the cold gun will go off.

Even in Africa, where he was accustomed to killing and chaos, Lin Rui could only smile bitterly in the face of this qiē, "What a dirty place." ”

"It's filthy, it's hell, but it's a mercenary paradise. Yelena patted Lin Rui, "How are you?"

"Much better. Lin Rui nodded.

"Then it's time for us to go. Yelena said, "We must find a way to contact Cobain." What do you have to say?"

Lin Rui smiled slightly, "Find a bar, you know." ”

Yelena knew what Lin Rui meant by the bar, it was not an ordinary bar, but a place where mercenaries gathered. Soon they found such a place, which is actually not difficult to find, and they are mercenaries themselves and know how to find such a place.

Bars where such mercenaries gather are usually close to the military, as this is how they are safe. However, those who can get drunk inside are usually mercenaries. They don't have much military discipline constraints, and the life of licking blood is extremely stressful on their minds, and after the mission, most of the mercenaries will get drunk here, find women, and gamble. This is a place of smoky miasma, and they are a group of smoky miasma.

There's a good thing about it here, though, that you can usually buy what you want. From in-demand cigarettes to weapons, ammunition and other gear. As long as you are willing to pay, there must be people who are willing to make your money.

After Lin Rui and Yelena walked in, all the mercenaries were them. Because they are the first time to come, some eyes. In addition, there are few Chinese like Lin Rui here, and a superb beauty like Yelena is even rarer.

So as soon as they walked in, they were immediately surrounded by people. A big white mercenary walked over, and Liana said, "Hey, chick, do you want to have fun?"

"Go away, if you don't want me to shove your head in your ass. Yelena said coldly.

The mercenary was clearly a little out of the stage amid the laughter and countless whistles. He walked up and grabbed Yelena's wrist, but Lin Rui twisted the mercenary's hand before he could and pressed him to the bar. A cold light appeared, and the dagger in Lin Rui's hand was already heavily inserted into the wooden bar. The blade was less than a centimeter from the mercenary's face.

The smiles on the faces of these mercenaries suddenly froze, they were all people who had experienced life and death struggles, and they were very experienced. But even none of them have the movements of a man. Almost instantly, the not-so-strong East Asian completed the action of pressing down on his uniform and then mending the knife with his hand.

As long as the blade deviates slightly, it is the carotid artery of the mercenary. Lin Rui's movements were completed in one go, without a little mud and water. But I couldn't help but sweat.

"You'd better learn to be obedient. Lin Rui, a big mercenary, said lightly, "Otherwise, you won't need this ear." ”

The atmosphere in the bar was a bit quiet, and the owner of the bar immediately came out to play a round, "Listen to me, man, he just drank too much." Everyone is here to relax, there is no need to be so nervous. Why don't you let him go and let me treat you to a drink. And I can guarantee that no one will harass this lady again. ”

"Good. Lin Rui raised his hand to shake the mercenary away, turned to the boss and smiled slightly, "I want to use the phone." ”

"It's a bit difficult, you know, the fighting has been very tense lately, the lines have been badly damaged, and the local mobile phone communication has been paralyzed. Not to mention international routes, unless by satellite phone. The boss took two glasses and put them on the table, and poured two glasses of wine, "These two glasses are counted as my invitation." ”

"Then get me a satellite phone. Lin Rui took the wine glass and drank it all.

The boss shook his head, "I'm afraid this is also very difficult, if you need a weapon or something, I can think of a way." But as you know, satellite phones aren't a necessity here. ”

"So, just think of a way. We're going to do it today. Yelena smiled slightly.

The bar owners glanced at each other, "It's not too difficult, a couple of war correspondents were shot the day before yesterday." Their belongings were looted. It stands to reason that among these things, there should be the satellite phone you want. But I'm going to go to the people who collect the stolen goods, is that the price......"

"I understand, you can make an offer. Lin Rui nodded.

"Ten thousand. The bar owner thought for a moment and said, "At least that's the market now." ”

"Yes, but I want to pay on credit. Lin Rui smiled slightly.

The bar owner laughed a little, "Listen man, you should know the rules." There is no credit in this industry. He is also telling the truth, these mercenaries are precarious, and they don't know when they will never come back. If you pay on credit, do you still want to find a dead man?

Lin Rui smiled slightly, "Don't worry, if I die." You can ask someone for a debt, and I can guarantee that he will never pay the bill. ”

"What? do you want me to believe a mercenary's assurance?" the boss said with some amusement.

"He's the most reputable mercenary in the world. Lin Rui said lightly, "Maybe you've heard of him, his name is Silver Wolf Michelle." ”
