In early August, a rumor began to spread in Jerusalem.
This rumor is related to Lanfang. The content is that King Qin Zhiyuan of Lanfang, as the leader of the Knights Templar, is about to send troops to Jerusalem to launch a new Crusade in the twentieth century.
Strictly speaking, this is not a rumor, because there is indeed a Lanfang army waiting at Moon Bay, and this news has been confirmed by the British.
The news spread so well that people couldn't help but believe it, so starting from mid-August, locals in Jerusalem protested every day in front of Lanfang's office in Jerusalem. These people's protests were not just words, they would
Throwing stones into the office, they also attacked every Lanfang person they met on the street.
There are not many Chinese living in Jerusalem. Including office staff, there are only more than 100 people. Jesse Faraday, the director of the office, issued a notice to all Chinese early, asking them to leave Jerusalem in the near future or to
Come to the office to stay temporarily for a while to avoid the limelight first.
After receiving the notice from the office, most people in Lanfang chose to return to Lanfang, and only a few people chose to come to the Lanfang office in Jerusalem for temporary refuge.
Although the office is not at the level of an embassy, there is a squad of Marines stationed there, and the staff have also distributed weapons and can fight if necessary, so the safety of staying in the office is still guaranteed.
Although Palestine has the support of the British, they dare not declare war with Lanfang. As long as there is no official intervention, they cannot break through the Marine Corps defense line with just a few mobs.
After arranging for the civilians who came to stay temporarily, Jesse Faraday approached Ye Zhengqing, the captain of the Marine Corps combat team in charge of security, and inquired about the deployment of security work.
The front door is the focus of defense. We have a barricade outside the door. If someone dares to enter the barricade, we can consider it a violent intrusion, and then we can shoot. Two Type 20 general-purpose machine guns are placed at the front door, which can form a
Crossfire, no matter how many people they break in, will definitely make it impossible for them to come back. All the windows have been welded with steel protective windows. Unless there are explosives, no one can do anything. If someone dares to break in,
The staff must hide in the basement according to the plan. The basement is our last line of defense. The supplies inside are enough for us to live for a month, so there is no need to worry. This place is impregnable. Ye Zhengqing is confident that this is based on strong defense capabilities.
Jesse Faraday had already approached the Palestinian side before, and the Palestinian government promised Jesse Faraday that if he received a call from the police, support would arrive within half an hour. This is the reason why the office has not closed yet.
The Lanfang Office in Palestine is an ancient castle. It was originally a hotel. Later, the Lanfang government bought it and after renovation and reinforcement, it became its current size.
The entire castle is a structure with three floors above ground and one underground. The main body of the building is made of stone bars. The structure is very solid. After the Lanfang government bought it, it reinforced it with reinforced concrete. Unless the intruders have heavy weapons, they will
It is impossible to cause actual harm to the office.
Well, you have worked hard during this period. After this critical moment, I would like to thank everyone. During this period, all staff will be under your command, including me. If anyone dares to disobey the order, you can execute it.
Battlefield discipline. Jesse Faraday was a Frenchman from Lanfang. He participated in the World War and was considered decisive in killing.
Don’t worry, we work in three shifts around the clock. Please rest assured, as long as one of the twelve of us is alive, not a single Palestinian will break in. Ye Zhengqing is also battle-hardened, so he can decide which one is lighter and which is heavier.
clear.
Just as Jesse Faraday was about to open his mouth to encourage, a soldier suddenly rushed in: Report, someone just came over and said that several of our people were trapped near the Church of the Nativity.
Who is our person? Ye Zhengqing kept asking.
Impossible. All our people have left Jerusalem, and those who have not left are now in the office. This news is probably a scam. Jesse Faraday immediately denied it. This guy is studying the Three Kingdoms recently, and he is a little too deep into the drama.
It was a local man who covered his face with a turban, so he couldn't see clearly. He dropped these words and left in a hurry. The soldiers couldn't tell the accuracy of the news.
Maybe it was Qin Mao and the others who suddenly heard a exclamation from upstairs.
Qin Mao and Ye Zhengqing were confused.
Yes, it is a young man from Lanfang, three boys, one girl, and a half-year-old child. Qin Mao is the name of the half-year-old child. They had dinner at my restaurant the day before yesterday and said they would stay here for a few days.
Oh my god, it seems like I have to complete some graduation project. A middle-aged man who took refuge in the office replied.
This middle-aged man ran a Chinese restaurant in Jerusalem. The restaurant invested a lot of money, so he was naturally reluctant to leave. He planned to avoid the limelight and go back to continue the business, so he hid in the office.
The graduation project seemed to be that of a student who was about to graduate. Jesse Faraday suddenly felt dizzy.
Not long after Lanfang was established, there were not many serious high-level talents trained by himself in the entire country. Qin Zhiyuan also attached great importance to education, and Jesse Faraday already had a premonition of impending disaster.
Shanzi, prepare the car, one team and two teams get on the car and prepare to set off, the third team and the fourth team stay behind, all cheering up. This is not a drill, it is a first-level urban combat standard. A series of orders came from Ye Zhengqing's mouth, and before he finished speaking,
People have already rushed into the equipment warehouse.
Lanfang troops are equipped with standard materials when dispatched. For example, in urban combat, the first-level standard is a base number of ammunition, two flash bombs, two defensive grenades, as well as pistols and daggers. At the same time, a combat team must carry a
Breaking hammer.
Since entering preparations for war, the office has been on high alert, and the Marine Corps has entered combat status. The Marine Corps, including resting Marines, can be dispatched at any time.
When Ye Zhengqing put on his equipment and came to the yard, the five marines were already ready and waiting for the captain Ye Zhengqing. Just as he was about to get in the car, Jesse Faraday and an office staff member hurried over with pistols.
:We will go with you. At least we can help you drive. More people can help you.
Those who can be sent to work in the office have more or less received basic military training, and they have no problem driving and shooting. At this time, it was too late to refuse. Ye Zhengqing agreed with a wave of his hand: Get in the car, get in the car, everyone get in the car.
The two enhanced Matadors roared away immediately.
Like the troubled Jesus, the Church of the Nativity is also a church that has been repeatedly robbed by earthquakes and wars. The current Church of the Nativity was rebuilt by Emperor Justinian in 540 AD. As the legendary birthplace of Jesus, the Church of the Nativity
Magnificent and beautiful, it is one of the few well-preserved ancient buildings in the Jerusalem area and has high cultural value.
Of course, just like the current changing situation, although the Church of the Nativity is still so tall, it is no longer inviolable. Because of recent rumors, the Church of the Nativity, one of the main Catholic strongholds in Jerusalem, is hostile to the people of Jerusalem.
.
On a street corner not far from the church, at the door of a shop selling handmade carpets, Jerusalemites crowded the inside and outside of the store, and the people were a little excited. From time to time, some people in the crowd shouted, "Get out," or "Get out of here."
Rush in, take them out and burn them all to death
burn to death
This is a bit too intense.
In the backyard of the shop, three young people were having a heated argument.
It's all your fault. If you hadn't stayed one more day, we wouldn't be trapped here. One young man's face turned red and he roared at another young man who was covering his head.
That's enough. Now is not the time to hold people accountable. Don't say these nonsense. It's our collective decision to stay. You didn't object yesterday. The young man covering his head was not to be outdone.
But what should we do now? What should we do? The red-faced young man was furious.
How do I know what to do? Our language barrier makes it impossible to communicate at all, and the emotions of those people do not allow communication. The blood seeping from the young man's fingers is the result of communication.
That's enough, can you please stop arguing? I've been ignoring everyone all day long, and you're no better than a child when things happen to you. Aren't you ashamed enough? The only girl who was helping at the table glared at her.
There was a young man lying on the table with a large amount of blood on his abdomen. A half-year-old child was busy treating the wound and ignored the quarrel.
Okay, he needs to rest now. You can watch him here. If he wakes up, let him drink some water, but don’t drink too much. The half-year-old child is Qin Mao. Qin Mao skillfully applied a bandage on the wound.
Bow tie, and then explain carefully to the girl.
How the hell is it possible to calm down like this? The red-faced young man has entered a semi-crazy state. The growing shouts outside the door make the young man unable to control himself.
Shut up. Qin Mao punched the young man hard in the stomach, knocking him half-kneeling on the ground. Qin Mao picked up the young man by his collar and stared into his eyes.
One word at a time: Listen to me, your job is to guard the door. If someone breaks in, you can hit him with this. Can you use it?
Qin Mao is holding a pistol in his hand. Although it is not a standard military pistol, this type of revolver is more suitable for beginners.
I know a little bit. The young man was not sure and wanted to take it tremblingly.
I'll use girl suddenly said.
Qin Mao glanced at the timid red-faced young man and handed the revolver in his hand to the girl.
Where are you going? The girl asked Qin Mao who was about to walk out the door. Somehow, this half-grown child gave people the impression that he could be relied on, much better than these two young people.
I have this. In this case, this is more useful. I am at the door. As long as I am alive, I will protect you. Qin Mao pulled out a dagger with spikes on both ends from his boot and shook it at the girl.
He shook his head, turned around and walked out the door.
This weapon seems to be called Emei thorn
Looking at the half-grown boy walking out of the door, the tenderness in the girl's eyes is intoxicating.
