Seeing Hamid limping up the stairs, Ye Chen was somewhat curious, so he asked casually, "Brother, have you ever injured your leg?"
Hamid looked back at him, then looked at his left leg, and sighed: "My left leg was seriously injured in a battle. It was hit by fragments after the bomb exploded. At that time, only one limb was amputated. Fortunately, I managed to save this leg after all my efforts, but this leg also suffered irreversible damage, so after recovery, the muscles were severely atrophied, and the function was also degraded, so I limped"
As he spoke, he couldn't help feeling: "In a place like Syria, the difficulty of a crippled commander is beyond words!"
Although the cripple is not a serious disability, Hamid is the supreme commander of an armed force after all, and his lame leg has a great impact on his personal image and prestige.
And the biggest impact was that his self-confidence suffered a lot.
Once upon a time, Hamid was also an ambitious general, eager to make achievements in the chaotic war situation, and even hoped to become the supreme commander of the entire opposition forces.
However, since his limp, his influence has declined a lot, and his self-confidence has also taken a hit.
Originally, his team consisted of nearly ten thousand people, and he was regarded as a relatively powerful one in the opposition. However, seeing that he was crippled and his self-confidence was severely damaged, some of his confidants took the opportunity to incite some of his subordinates to go out and stand on their own, which made his strength suddenly plunge.
Sometimes the reality is so cruel. When a person has enough majesty to deter his subordinates, his subordinates will appear as docile as cats and as loyal as dogs.
However, once this person's own strength and body decline, the heart of a tiger and wolf will sprout in his subordinates.
It is quite moral to set up your own family, and those who have no integrity will even take the opportunity to kill their boss and replace him.
Such things have indeed happened frequently since ancient times.
Song Taizu Zhao Kuangyin was originally inspected in front of the palace of the Later Zhou Dynasty. After the death of Zhou Shizong at that time, he had just passed on the throne to his seven-year-old son Zhou Gongdi. As a result, Zhao Kuangyin turned around and launched the Chenqiao Mutiny and seized the young master.
There are countless similar things in history.
The same is true for Hamid in Syria.
The economic development of this kind of place is very backward, and there are many mountains, the degree of motorization of the troops is very low, and most of the time they have to rely on legs, feet and transported animals, mules and horses. In this case, Hamid's physical disability is infinitely magnified.
When the soldiers were fighting in the mountains, he couldn't go to the front line to cheer for the soldiers;
When the troops began to maneuver in a large area between mountains, he could not participate at all.
The soldiers of the opposition were born recklessly, and they needed the commander to take the lead or blend in, but Hamid's legs became a huge shortcoming.
At this time, Hamid limped out of the cellar, followed by Ye Chen and He Zhiqiu.
After coming out, I saw an armed helicopter parked in the yard, and all the armed personnel had already evacuated.
The weapons and ammunition originally hung under and on both sides of the helicopter have basically been disassembled, and all the ammunition has been removed from the cannon as the main firepower.
The reason why Ye Chen asked them to remove all the ammunition was also to ensure that Hamid would not suddenly regret it after he arrived at the meeting place.
After all, the Ye family arranged for civilian aircraft, and it must be a civilian helicopter to pick him up when the time comes. In front of armed helicopters, civilian helicopters are paperless, and the machine guns will be smashed into a sieve.
At this time, a pilot was standing next to the helicopter. When he saw Hamid coming out with two strangers, Ye Chen and He Zhiqiu, he immediately felt a little bad, and subconsciously wanted to touch the pilot's gun on his waist.
Hamid immediately said: "Throw away the gun, these two are my friends!"
When the pilot heard this, although he was skeptical, he didn't dare to make mistakes, and immediately threw the gun on the ground.
Hamid ordered again: "Hurry up and start the helicopter!"
The pilot hurriedly climbed into the cockpit and started the propeller, while Hamid, Ye Chen and He Zhiqiu sat in the cabin.
After entering the cabin, Ye Chen used the watch Vasily gave him to press the emergency call button.
Syria's infrastructure itself is very poor, and the war is even more messy. Except for the city, there is almost no communication signal, so even mobile phones that roam internationally have no service here. The only medium that can make calls is satellite.
Fortunately, this kind is specially designed for paratroopers? Immediately surprised.
But at this time, Ye Chen immediately waved his hand and said: "No, I just need them to survive, I don't want to take them away."
Hamid hurriedly asked: "Brother, what do you mean?"
Ye Chen said: "Well, don't kill them, leave them as laborers, do odd jobs in your army, cook, dig trenches, transport goods and so on, I believe that They are still competent, if you save their lives and let them stay in Syria to work for you for the rest of their lives, it is considered that you did not tie them back for nothing."
Hamid immediately understood what Ye Chen meant.
He knew that Ye Chen didn't want to save those guys, he just wanted to save their lives for He Zhiqiu's sake.
So he immediately agreed and said: "Since my brother has said so, don't worry, I will put them to good use, give them a bite of food, let them survive, and honestly work as a coolie for me."
Ye Chen nodded, and asked He Zhiqiu: "They won't be killed, are you satisfied with this?"
He Zhiqiu asked a little angrily: "You can obviously take them away, why do you have to do this?"
Ye Chen also asked her back: "It's a joke, I've given you enough face by saving their lives, why did you save them from leaving?"
He Zhiqiu couldn't help but said: "Obviously as long as you say a word, they can regain their freedom, but why are you unwilling to help them?!"
"Help them?" Ye Chen sneered, and asked her: "Why? There are millions of refugees in Syria and more than 700 million people in Europe. Obviously, as long as everyone in Europe donates a fist-sized bread a day, they can fully feed them." , let them eat in vain and fat, but why are these refugees still living without a fixed place and not enough to eat?"
Speaking, Ye Chen asked again: "There are 400 million extremely poor people in Africa, and the total population of developed countries in the world is nearly one billion. Obviously, as long as people from these developed countries, as long as every two people in developed countries support one African , then there will be no extreme poverty in the whole of Africa, but why don't they do it?"
He Zhiqiu was suddenly speechless when asked, his face flushed but he couldn't find a suitable reason to refute.
Ye Chen asked in a cold voice at this time: "You always think it's easy for me to save him with a single sentence, but you think I must save him. This in itself is a brainless paradox! Bill Gates is so rich, and he spent a hundred 100 million dollars is also very easy, why don't you ask him to pay 70 million dollars in ransom to rescue his seven compatriots?"
He Zhiqiu blurted out: "Youyou are changing concepts secretly!"
Ye Chen sneered: "Switch the concept?"
"Okay, let me ask you, among the seven of them, is one of them my relatives?"
"Let me ask you again, among the seven of them, is one of them my brother?"
"Among the seven of them, is one of them my friend?"
"Among the seven of them, is one of them my compatriots?"
"Not my relatives, not my siblings, not my friends, not my compatriots, not my race!"
"This kind of person who has nothing to do with me, if I help him, it is due to love; if I don't help him, it is my duty!"
"Even if I can help them with just one word, I can use it! What! What! Want! Help!" (Remember the website URL: www.hlnovel.com
