Chapter 155: Find a way

Gao Guang discovered a problem, that is, people in Baghdad don't seem to like to communicate very much.

The driver exchanged a few words when he got on the bus. After discovering that Gao Guang didn't bring any supplies that were in short supply in Baghdad, he lost interest in chatting, so that Gao Guang couldn't get any useful knowledge from the driver.

It was still too hasty. It only took one day to pack things, purchase supplies, and arrange for Mike and Francisco. There were so many things to do that Gao Guang didn’t even have time to learn more about what Baghdad is.

What does it look like?

We must know that the way a city appears in the news is always far from the real side. Another serious problem is that the media in the United States that are accustomed to fabricating fake news have lost interest in Baghdad.

For particularly serious events, such as a terrorist attack that killed hundreds of people, there is basically no news in this city.

In the United States, a shooting case in which one person is killed does not make the news. In Baghdad, if a small-scale firefight occurs and ten or eight people are killed, how can it be a big deal?

Gao Guang didn't realize the seriousness of the situation. It wasn't until the driver left the airport with the convoy and officially rushed to the city that he realized what a boring and dangerous place was.

There was a loud bang, and Gao Guang suddenly woke up from his drowsiness. Then he saw a white dot appear on the windshield, a white dot that had just been shot by a bullet.

"Shet! These bastards!"

The driver became angry on the spot. He didn't slow down or show any signs of panic. He just cursed at a place not too far away from the roadside.

"Asshole, can't you see the logo of the War Group? Where are you shooting? You sons of bitches, can you aim better!"

Just one bullet hit the windshield, but the vehicle in front seemed to have been shot continuously. The high-gloss rifle was still in the bag, so he subconsciously put his hand on the pistol, ready to draw it at any time.

.

The driver cursed for a while, slowed down, bypassed several large cement block roadblocks, and followed the convoy without any intention of stopping or fighting back, and just passed the area where he was ambushed.

Gao Guang said in shock: "Can you tell me what happened?"

"Someone is waiting to teach the people of Thunder Company a lesson. Last week, Thunder Company just killed the son of the deputy of the boss of some armed organization and several relatives. This armed organization beat up the people of Thunder Company when they saw it. I will

You shouldn't go back with them."

Gao Guang knew that a deformed ecosystem had formed in Baghdad. After the withdrawal of the US military, a new ecosystem was formed between the PM and the local people, using tacit understanding and exchange of interests. Generally speaking, everyone's choice is to fight or not.

beat.

After all, they are all looking for money. Those who fight life and death all day long have lost the purpose of seeking money. Only when they encounter the kind of fanatical idiots, they will beat them up in desperation.

There is no reason to argue with idiots, such as those represented by Ace Ace, who must be beaten, because if they don’t beat them to death, they will beat them to death. In recent years, the War Group has been in Iraq.

The casualties were mainly caused by this group of people.

But there was a fight between an armed faction and a photo shoot company, and it was very targeted. It was really unclear what was going on with this highlight.

"Is Thunder a big company?"

"It's not big. There are only about a hundred people in total. If it's a big company, how can anyone dare to mess with them?"

"Then Thunder Company's opponent is the armed faction."

"Of course they don't have much strength, otherwise how could Thunder Company dare to provoke them."

It turned out that it was just a fight between two weak chickens. Gao Guang was relieved and said to the driver: "Then no one dares to mess with the War Group here, right?"

The driver looked at Gao Guang with a strange look, and then said in a slightly contemptuous tone: "There is never a shortage of rookies in this place. Rookies dare to do anything, so there will always be rookies who will do something. Let's do it."

They, they messed with us, a few people died, the new birds became old birds, until they left this ghost place, another group of rookies came, and it happened over and over again."

Gao Guang knew that he was the rookie the driver mentioned.

Whether on the battlefield or in a place where a new order is established after the war, newcomers do die quickly and often.

You have to pay attention to save your life. If you want to save your life, the most convenient way is to find an experienced veteran to take you with you.

So, is it time to look for a better master to teach you?

"You must be very familiar with this place. How should I call you?"

The driver said expressionlessly: "Familiarity is very familiar. I have been here for four years. You can call me coachman. Anyway, I just drive everywhere."

Coachman and driver are not the same words. Driver refers to carriage driver, but it is quite appropriate.

He can drive around Baghdad all day long. He is a veteran who is familiar with the situation. It would be right to explore the route from him.

How should we quickly close the relationship? Gao Guang's experience is that smoking and alcohol are the way to go, so he brought a lot of hard currency in his luggage.

There are not many bullets, but the tobacco and alcohol are essential.

Gao Guang took out a pack of cigarettes from his trouser pocket and said with a smile on his face: "My name is Mad Dog, do you want to smoke?"

"Mad dog, would you call me mad dog?"

The driver seemed a little surprised that Gao Guang would be called Mad Dog. He looked at Gao Guang again and said, "You don't look like... a very crazy person."

Looking at the cigarette in Gao Guang's hand, the coachman shrugged and said, "I don't smoke."

Gao Guang stood up quickly. He turned over and stretched out his arms. He reached the bag on the back seat and lifted it with great difficulty. He opened the bag and took out a bottle of 700 ml whiskey. He said to the coachman: "My friend

He told me that there are very few wines here and they are very expensive, so I brought a bottle. I wanted to treat you to a drink tonight, but I didn’t know there was no chance tonight, so why not... take it and drink it slowly."

The driver was very surprised and said in surprise: "Why do you want to invite me to drink?"

"Because, because..."

The coachman couldn't fix it, so he couldn't even think of a reason, so after a brief moment of confusion, he said straightforwardly: "Thank you for coming to pick me up."

"The company sent me here."

"Well, and you also told me a lot of experience. I am indeed a novice, and what you told me is very useful, so I am grateful to you and treat you to the wine I prepared for myself."

The coachman again said in confusion: "But I didn't tell you anything. I didn't say that neighborhood was the most dangerous, and I didn't tell you who you should look for to have fun in the Green Zone. I didn't tell you what jobs you could do, or what.

I can’t do the work, why do you want to invite me to drink?”

Gao Guang really couldn't be punished. He didn't know what was wrong with this coachman, or he really didn't know how to deal with people.

But from the beginning to now, this coachman doesn't seem like he has a black hole of emotional intelligence. Could it be that he asks so many questions just because he is wary?

Since the coachman was so direct, Gao Guang had no choice but to be more direct, so he immediately said: "So I will give you a drink, and you have to finish the drink. We have established a friendship, and it is not too late for you to teach me."

The coachman accepted the reason for the highlight. He looked at the bottle of whiskey. This wine sold for 59 US dollars a bottle, which was not too expensive, but it was certainly not the cheapest wine in Los Angeles.

"You are a studious rookie. A studious rookie has a better chance of becoming a veteran. Give me the wine."

Gao Guang handed the bottle over, but the coachman didn't take it.

"Open the bottle for me."

Gao Guang said in shock: "Do you want to drink now?"

"Is there any problem? Don't worry, I only have two sips and I won't get drunk. Hurry up."

After hesitating for a moment, Gao Guang unscrewed the cap and handed the open bottle to the driver.

With one hand holding the steering wheel and the other holding a wine bottle, the driver looked up to the sky and took a big gulp.

"Ha, it's so cool."

Holding a wine bottle in his right hand and resting it on the steering wheel, the coachman exhaled heavily, coughed twice, and said with satisfaction: "I haven't had such a drink in a long time."

While drinking and driving, Gao Guang felt that for the sake of his life safety, it would be better to dissuade him.

"I can help you put away the wine, and you can go back and drink slowly."

He picked up the wine bottle and drank it again. The coachman finally returned the bottle to Gao Guang.

Seeing that at least a third of the wine bottle had gone down, Gao Guang asked curiously: "Is Baghdad short of wine?"

"There is no shortage, and there is no shortage. It depends on how you define it. If you have money, you can definitely buy it, but it is expensive, and the company does not allow drinking, and the management is very strict. Well, especially for me."

The driver seemed to be happy. He waved his hand and said, "You have found the right person. If you want to know anything, just ask. No one knows Baghdad better than me."

"Well, as a newcomer, what should I do to stay away from danger?"

"You shouldn't have come if you were far from danger."

The driver said energetically: "But I can tell you how to be safer. First of all, don't walk with people from Thunder Company in the past two days. Absolutely not. They will either leave Baghdad or a few people will die before it can end."

All this, and then try not to leave the Green Zone. If you want to go out on a mission, it is best to avoid the territory of the Igor faction. This armed organization is newly established. They are eager to make a name for themselves, and we are the best target for making a name for ourselves.

, the Igor faction will definitely look for trouble."

After finishing speaking, the driver looked at Gao Guang and said, "What are you here for? Do you have a specific mission?"

"No, I don't know what to do yet,"

The driver waved his hand again and said: "The company is in urgent need of escorts. Remember, if you have the choice, never protect those Iraqis. It is too dangerous."

Gao Guang immediately said: "Can you explain clearly why you want to protect the Iraqis?"

"Those who are pro-American and want to be supported, the Pentagon used to directly send troops to protect them, but now they ask us to protect them. Remember, stay away from them, they will die easily."

The driver paused, burped, and said very seriously: "It's really easy to kill people, so if you have a choice, never protect the Iraqis."

For some reason, Gao Guang suddenly had an ominous premonition. He felt that Danny brought him here just to make him protect people.

After thinking for a moment, Gao Guang nodded and said: "I understand, then what should I say if I refuse."

The driver smiled and said: "Aren't you called a mad dog? Generally speaking, people who are too crazy, too radical, and like to cause trouble everywhere are usually not sent to perform protection tasks. Do you understand?
