Chapter 2 Chapter 1 February 21, 2011 - The Making of a National Decision

Huang Ping, Director-General of the Department of Consular Affairs of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.In this fan-shaped building, he is an ordinary member among hundreds of bureau-level cadres.In the early morning of this day, he got up from the camp bed that was temporarily set up in the office.He and his deputy, Guo Shaochun, deputy director of the Consular Department and director of the Consular Protection Center of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and others have not been home for two days, and this is only the eve of the start of the war. The situation in Libya is deteriorating every day, and the speed of its development cannot be predicted at all.Starting from February 19th, the telegrams sent by my embassy in the country to the country became more urgent one by one:

"The Libyan government has lost control of many areas, and the development of the situation has created an extremely critical situation for the tens of thousands of construction personnel and citizens working in Libya..." "Since the evening of the 20th, this place has fallen into a state of total turmoil..." "The situation is extremely critical. I was attacked and destroyed in many places at the construction site in Lili. Some companies were robbed of their property, and hundreds of thousands of people were brutally driven to the deserted desert by the thugs..."

"We are the Department of Consular Affairs, and it is our duty to protect the lives and property of overseas Chinese citizens. Now that tens of thousands of compatriots in Liberia are in danger, we must always stick to our posts and go all out to fight!" Huang Ping said firmly. For Huang Ping and his colleagues in the Consular Department, the battle they are facing now is definitely a super war: tens of thousands of compatriots who are in danger of life and death at any time must be transported from war-torn places in Africa thousands of miles away. take it back... "How?"

"When will it be finished?" "How much manpower and material resources will be mobilized?" "If it drags on for ten or eight days, what if hundreds or thousands of people die?" As soon as Huang Ping talked about the urgent and imminent crisis at that time, he spoke as fast as a cannonball, his face flushed, and he was very emotional. The compatriots must be brought back!Received on the land of our motherland!They must be allowed to return to their homes safely! This is the common wish of Huang Ping and the comrades in the Consular Department, and it is also their resounding oath.

"In June 2004, 11 workers from the China Railway 14th Bureau went to Afghanistan to participate in the construction aid work and were killed by militants. I went to the airport to pick them up. When I saw the 11 coffins lined up neatly, my heart ached. Ah! Think about it, the 11 coffins are all our compatriots. The relatives of the victims who picked up the plane were also there, and they all cried like hell...I will never forget this scene." The eye sockets of Huang Ping, who was strong and strong, flickered. "This time, there are tens of thousands of compatriots! They are in dire straits, Libya is constantly under fire, gunshots are everywhere, and bloody conflicts and violence are happening every second. Once they are taken hostage by the two sides fighting, hundreds of Thousands of casualties, that is a great tragedy..." Huang Ping's lips were trembling, even though it had been more than a year, he was still very excited.

"Therefore, the task of our Ministry of Foreign Affairs and our Consular Department is to do everything we can to bring our compatriots back safely as soon as possible!" Huang Ping added heavily, "We must bring back all of them!" Huang Ping took a deep breath. The scene of the emergency meeting chaired by Foreign Minister Yang Jiechi yesterday is still vivid in his mind—— Chen Xiaodong, director of the Department of Asian and African Affairs, reported the situation in Libya: "From the current judgment, from the inside of Libya, Gaddafi has been under high-handed rule for 42 years. He has made enemies on all sides politically and has not made much economic achievements; from the outside, the situation in West Asia, North Africa Political turmoil is on the rise. Although Gaddafi himself is trying to curry favor with the West, he is still regarded as an outlier and must be eliminated. The situation in Libya will continue to deteriorate, and it is likely to turn into a full-scale civil war."

"I agree with Xiaodong's opinion," said Chen Xu, director of the International Department, "according to the report from my permanent mission to the United Nations, Western countries are brewing proposals on Libya, with the intention of bringing down Gaddafi .” "Then, if the situation worsens, will the evacuation of our personnel be hindered by both sides in the conflict?" Zhang Zhijun, Secretary of the Party Committee of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, raised a key question. "There must be difficulties, but generally speaking, there should be no obstacles, because the bilateral relations between China and Liberia are still normal. The opposition side wants to strive for international recognition, and also values ​​our status as a permanent member of the Security Council. It is unlikely to offend us. At present, we have connections on both sides of Gaddafi and the opposition, as long as the work is in place, the political level should be guaranteed." Vice Foreign Minister Zhai Jun said.

Foreign Minister Yang Jiechi has been listening to everyone's opinions in silence.Secretary Zhang Zhijun looked at him and said, "It seems that we have to move forward with our work and plan for the worst." "It seems that people are going to be withdrawn." Foreign Minister Yang finally spoke, and he said in a low tone, "People are the first, and human lives are at stake. The first thing to consider is the safety of our own people. Now the most The most important thing is that the Policy Department and the Asia-Africa Department should clarify the situation; the European Department and the African Department should prepare first, and at critical moments, they must be able to find people who can talk and get things done. It will take time to withdraw so many people , to buy as much time as possible.”

Foreign Minister Yang looked up and looked around at the vice ministers and department heads present, pointing to Hu Jianzhong, director of the Finance Department, and said: "The troops and horses are not moved, the food and grass go first, first communicate with the comrades of the Ministry of Finance, and special matters may need to be dealt with." "Understood." Hu Jianzhong nodded heavily. Foreign Minister Yang immediately announced: "Now the Ministry needs to set up an emergency leading group to deal with the safety of our citizens in Liberia. Secretary Zhijun is asked to take the lead. Song Tao and Zhai Jun are the deputy team leaders, and Huang Ping, Chen Xiaodong and the leaders of various departments are the team members. .”

"Okay, let's act according to Minister Yang's arrangement!" Secretary Zhang Zhijun said. "Listen, from now on, all of us here must not leave their posts for a moment except to go to the toilet!" According to conventions and business responsibilities, the Department of Consular Affairs and its affiliated Consular Protection Center are undoubtedly the main execution units for specific actions .After Huang Ping finished speaking in the Consular Department, he trotted to the Consular Security Center and repeated the same words. "How many people are there?"

"I heard that there are more than ten thousand!" "More than that, let's say less than 20,000 to 30,000!" "My God! How can this be done?" The young people in the Consular Department and the Consular Protection Center have also experienced more than ten evacuation operations of various sizes in recent years, but they are so far away, so many people, and so urgent. Never met before.The lives and safety of tens of thousands of people are closely related to them at this moment. Hundreds of millions of people and tens of millions of overseas Chinese are paying close attention to it. One can imagine the great pressure. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has never encountered such a situation, nor has the People's Republic of China encountered it. On the evening of the 20th, many Beijing citizens living next to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs saw that many windows of the accordion-style fan-shaped building were brightly lit all night... On the morning of the 21st, Huang Ping and Guo Shaochun rushed from the consular protection center to the ministry meeting room to attend the meeting of the emergency leading group.Minister Yang Jiechi, who is always smiling on weekdays, also came to the meeting. At this moment, there was no smile on Minister Yang's face. He emphasized again in an extremely deep tone: "Continue to pay close attention to the development of the situation on the Liberian side, and make evacuation as soon as possible. compatriots' plan." Yes, the war is approaching, how to evacuate tens of thousands of people?Who will do it? "Song Tao will take the lead, the General Office will assist, the Consular Department and the Consular Protection Center will take the lead, and other departments will fully cooperate." Zhang Zhijun, head of the emergency leadership team of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, issued an order. The meeting took less than half an hour.After receiving the order, Huang Ping and Guo Shaochun looked at each other and stood up first. "Huang Ping, Shaochun!" Song Tao stopped them, "You'd better give me the evacuation plan before noon. There will be an internal coordination meeting after work in the afternoon, followed by a coordination meeting between ministries and commissions. Without a plan, we can't do it." what!" Huang Ping and Guo Shaochun knew each other, and it was clearly urgent to add four words: urgent! "Yes! Vice Minister Song, we must come up with a plan before noon!" Huang Ping replied crisply.He patted Guo Shaochun, and the two trotted all the way to the consular security center. "I really can't remember how I got here in the next half day!" Huang Ping shook his head and said, "Anyway, Shaochun and I's brains are like machines running at full speed. The Consular Department and the Consular Security Dozens of people in the center were also mobilized. Some collected information ahead, some studied evacuation routes, some calculated capacity plans, some contacted embassies in Libya and neighboring countries, and some worked intensively with the Ministry of Commerce. , State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission, Ministry of Public Security, Civil Aviation Administration and other units. In short, we made a high-quality evacuation plan report as quickly as possible. It was sent to the general office before noon and sent to Vice Minister Song Tao..." At noon that day, someone saw that Song Tao hadn't eaten a few bites of rice at all, and Director Zhang Ming in the office had no time to serve the rice bowl.Their task is to immediately change the evacuation plan into a formal plan reported to the Minister and State Councilor Dai Bingguo in charge of foreign affairs.At the same time, the inter-ministerial coordination meeting led by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and attended by more than ten ministries and commissions is also intensely preparing. At 2:30 p.m., the internal coordination meeting of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs was held first.The leaders of various departments participated and formed seven opinions, the most important of which was the evacuation plan, which already involved sea, land, and air linkages, and even considered dispatching troops... Obediently, what kind of formation is this!Someone's eyes widened as they whispered. At 4 o'clock, led by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Ministry of Public Security, the Ministry of Security, the Ministry of Transport, the Ministry of Agriculture, the Ministry of Commerce, the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission, the General Administration of Customs, the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine, the Civil Aviation Administration, the People's Liberation Army General Staff and relevant company leaders participated The inter-ministerial coordination meeting was held in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs building.Song Tao presided over and assigned tasks related to the evacuation to each unit. There were some accidents at the meeting. When the person in charge of a Libyan engineering and construction company reported the situation, he burst into tears: "Our construction site has been robbed several times by mobs over there since the 19th. They were all armed with guns. Several of our workers were injured. The poor lesbians were so frightened that they didn’t know what to do. Before the meeting just now, I contacted them again and said that they had Unable to withstand the looting of the thugs, I withdrew to the camp in the desert. A few minutes ago, I made more than a dozen phone calls in a row, but I couldn't get in touch again... There is something wrong with these hundreds of people, what should I do? Explain to their families! I beg your Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the government, please help!" That is the big boss of a state-owned enterprise who usually speaks grandly.His begging made the meeting a little sad. "So, the situation has reached a very critical moment. We must take a responsible attitude towards the people, act quickly, race against time, try our best to ensure the safety of our citizens in Liberia, and successfully complete the evacuation task!" Song Tao emphasized loudly. "Then assign the task to us!" "Yes, tell us what to do, just say it!" "And we..." The attitudes of various ministries and commissions moved the comrades of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs very much.At this time, someone from the general office came to report to Song Tao: "Commissioner Dai will be here soon, he wants to see you." "Sorry, I'm going to meet the leaders of the State Council." Song Tao immediately interrupted his speech at the meeting, and winked at Zhang Ming, the director of the general office, and the two rushed to the office. State Councilor Dai Bingguo, Minister Yang Jiechi, and Secretary Zhang Zhijun entered the room one after another. "Old leader, you didn't say hello in advance, so I can pick you up at the door!" Song Tao was caught off guard and gave up his seat to the chief. "This is my hometown, do you still have to be polite?" Dai Bingguo took off his long coat casually, put it on the back of the chair, and said to his old subordinates with a smile. As the State Councilor in charge of the country's foreign affairs, Dai Bingguo has worked in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs for more than 30 years and knows almost everyone in the agency.New and old diplomats are more familiar with him, because he is very friendly to everyone, and he smiles when he meets people, so everyone in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs affectionately calls him "cute little old man". "It's almost seventy, and he's so small, isn't he a little old man?" Dai Bingguo always said this to everyone in these years, and he smiled after he finished speaking. What a lovely leader!But at this moment, the smile on Dai Bingguo's face quickly disappeared.After listening to a brief report on the Libyan evacuation plan, he said: "Is my personnel in Libya 20,000 or 30,000, maybe more? So many people will be withdrawn in a short period of time. It is so important that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs may not be able to deal with it independently, and it should be raised to the national level for research.” That is something to be desired!That's what Song Tao expected in his heart. "To go to the national level, the chairman and the prime minister must nod. You should prepare the report as soon as possible." Dai Bingguo instructed. "yes." Dai Bingguo only stayed in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs for less than half an hour, but this half hour completely changed the original evacuation plan of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.In other words, the largest overseas evacuation campaign in China's history has risen from the level of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to the national level! "Immediately order all departments to quickly redeploy according to Dai's instructions!" Yang Jiechi instructed Song Tao to immediately issue a new order to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the front embassies and consulates in the name of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs' Emergency Leading Group. Huang Ping received an order from the Ministry to immediately set up the Ministry of Foreign Affairs' Libya Evacuation Emergency Command Center with the Consular Protection Center as the main task. The internal mobilization meeting of the Consular Department was held immediately, and 30 to 40 business backbones were transferred to the emergency team of the Consular Protection Center. "Listen everyone, we are going to fight a big battle! From now on, all personnel must enter a 24-hour emergency state until the evacuation battle is over!" Huang Ping stood in the middle of the office of the Consular Security Center like a frontline commander. so ordered. Guo Shaochun, deputy director and director of the Consular Insurance Center, made a specific division of labor: "The center needs to be divided into a contact group, an information and text group, a charter group, and a telephone duty group... All comrades will work in two shifts and be on duty 24 hours a day!" "Tonight, CCTV's "News Network" program and the news channel will broadcast the hotline of our consular protection center about the Libyan evacuation. Have you arranged for the comrades who answer the calls? At least two comrades. I think they are still women. It is better for comrades to be operators, they have a good attitude, and the public is easy to accept. Who will be the lesbians? Hao Yu and Chen Feng! You will enter the battle early from tonight! Is there any problem?" Huang Ping asked with a hoarse voice. "No!" Hao Yu and Chen Feng said in unison. "Jiayao, I'm sorry. Today is your son's first day at work after his full moon, but you can't let you go home..." Huang Ping patted the shoulder of Zhu Jiayao, the leader of the liaison team and deputy director of the Consular Insurance Center, and said very apologetically . "Find out the situation on the front line quickly, even if I am the most worthy of my son and his mother!" Zhu Jiayao didn't even look back, he had already leaned over and picked up the dedicated phone on his desk, shouting to the Chinese embassy in Libya: "Ambassador Wang? Please tell me about your situation..." "Civil Aviation Administration? Please confirm how many planes can be dispatched in the next few days..." Zhang Hequn and Zhang Liang, who chartered the crew, called the Civil Aviation Administration in turn. "Director, please review it immediately..." Zhang Yang, another deputy director of the Consular Protection Center, handed the drafted citizen notice and hotline telegram to Huang Ping, "If there is no problem, the telegram will be sent to the central The TV station's "News Network" and the news channel broadcast it in a rolling manner." "I think it's ok. Shaochun, think again." Huang Ping quickly glanced at it, and then handed it to Guo Shaochun. After Guo Shaochun carefully read the telegram, he said decisively: "That's it!" Huang Ping was holding the phone, and while answering the call, he pulled Guo Shaochun over and said, "The ministry ordered us to review the report on the evacuation plan and send it to the central government immediately..." Dozens of minutes later, the "News Network" program started, and hundreds of millions of people saw the scrolling text at the bottom of the screen - the emergency hotline of the Chinese Citizens Consular Protection Center of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Libya: (010) 65963747, (010) 65964095 ... From this moment on, the ringing of the phone in the Consular Protection Center of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has not stopped for a moment. It is connected to the hearts of hundreds of millions of people in the country, and to all parts of the world... "I could carry it on the first day and the second day, but then my arms were all numb. I had to keep lifting them up and stretching them habitually. Anyway, if you ask me how many calls I answer a day, I don't even remember. I don't know, there are hundreds!" Chen Feng said in an interview. "Most of the calls were from family members of comrades working in Libya. Some people cried when they called for the first time, crying anxiously; the second time they called, they still cried, crying happily, knowing that we helped them find their relatives; The third time I called and cried, because after knowing that my relatives were safe and sound, I was excited to thank the party and the government..." Hao Yu said. In addition to crying, the hotline kept shouting, "Please the government", "Please the Ministry of Foreign Affairs", "Please the embassy" to save their relatives.There are also people who call from Libya, which is in the midst of war, asking the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to tell their relatives in the country that they are safe, and some people are so panicked that they can't speak for a long time, just crying blindly... Everyone is anxious, and all Chinese are anxious for our compatriots who are thousands of miles away and are in danger! At this moment, there is another person who is more anxious, and he is State Councilor Dai Bingguo. Coming out of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, it should be around five o'clock when I get off work.Dai Bingguo rushed to Diaoyutai to participate in an important diplomatic event: to accompany President Hu Jintao to meet the president of a certain country.Originally, this was a courtesy event, but today our State Councilor shoulders a sacred mission. He wants to ask President Hu for instructions in person to elevate the Libyan evacuation campaign to the national level. The situation on the front line is getting more and more serious, and every minute of delay may bring unimaginable and serious consequences to tens of thousands of my compatriots. "Chairman, I need to ask you for instructions on the evacuation of overseas Chinese from Libya..." In the evening, Dai Bingguo saw the needle, and leaned over to report softly to Chairman Hu Jintao while President Hu Jintao was entertaining the President. Hu Jintao nodded from time to time, and sometimes turned his head, instructing Dai Bingguo one by one... Soon, Dai Bingguo left Diaoyutai and drove straight to Zhongnanhai's office. "Pick up the Ministry of Foreign Affairs..." Dai Bingguo said to the secretary when he entered the office.The moment the secretary picked up the phone, he looked at his chief with some distress: he is already seventy years old! At 9:00 p.m., in the office of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Song Tao was on the phone with Wang Wangsheng, our ambassador to Libya: "The situation is very serious, and the evacuation operation at the national level is about to start in full swing. On the one hand, you must do your best to protect and protect the personnel in Libya." For the evacuation work, you must also strengthen your precautions to ensure your own safety." Song Tao ordered with a firm tone and full of emotion. "Please rest assured in the ministry! Please rest assured in the Party Central Committee, we will stick to the end and complete... well... the tasks entrusted by the motherland!" "What's wrong with your voice? Is it already dumb? Old Wang, how is your health? Can you stand it? The battle is about to begin..." Song Tao asked worriedly, and distressedly said, "You and comrades You must pay attention to your body!" "I can hold on, please don't worry..." The voice came intermittently from a distance, accompanied by hissing noises. Song Tao looked at his watch, and said to Zhang Ming, director of the general office: "The communication situation in Tripoli has become unstable, and the situation is getting worse. Without further delay, you call Xiaodong, Huang Ping and the others, and they will arrive at 10 o'clock." I'm here, let's hold another emergency meeting." At 9:50, the heads of several departments including the General Office, the Policy Department, the Asia-Africa Department, and the Consular Department arrived at the conference room of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs ahead of schedule.Song Tao said: "The central government is studying our report, and the ministry's work must enter a combat state in advance. Only in this way, once the central government's decision is made, the entire evacuation campaign will start with overwhelming momentum. Human lives are at stake. From now on we Don't delay even a minute!" After a pause, Song Tao looked at Huang Ping and Guo Shaochun, and gave instructions: "You must immediately notify the embassies and consulates in Egypt, Turkey, Tunisia, Greece, Malta and other countries to do the relevant work, and ask the local government to help us from Libya. The evacuees shall be provided with all possible entry and resettlement convenience; moreover, the possibility of renting planes, ships and other means of transportation from relevant countries shall be learned as quickly as possible..." The meeting lasted less than half an hour, but there were dozens of orders from Song Tao, each of which was extremely urgent! The General Office, the Department of Asia and Africa, especially the Consular Department and the Consular Protection Center of Huang Ping and Guo Shaochun, the tasks to be carried back are as many as several truckloads! Looking back at the series of "national decision" procedures in Zhongnanhai. After the evacuation report from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs was sent to Dai Bingguo, it was immediately reported to the Prime Minister's Office. Premier Wen Jiabao wrote a long line of important instructions on the report on the "first-level response" to the evacuation of overseas Chinese from Libya with a serious and dignified expression... State Councilor Dai Bingguo, who had been waiting for the top leader to make a decision, was just about to take off his clothes and lean on the bed when the red phone rang: "Comrade Bingguo, the General Secretary and the Prime Minister have given instructions, let me command with you This battle... the situation ahead is very urgent, do you think we are tomorrow... no, it is already past zero, it should be the first meeting of the State Council's emergency command headquarters this morning?" It was Zhang Dejiang, member of the Politburo and Vice Premier, calling. "Okay, I completely agree. But I suggest that today's meeting be held earlier than usual." Dai Bingguo said. "Okay then, let's set a formal meeting at 8 o'clock. I'll arrange for someone to notify you down, so you can sit for a while..." Zhang Dejiang said. The phone call between the deputy prime minister and the state councilor was temporarily put down.Immediately, Zhongnanhai's call woke up the relevant personnel one by one: "Deputy Secretary-General You Quan, please be sure to attend the meeting held by the State Council on time at 8 o'clock..." You Quan, Deputy Secretary-General of the State Council, was still awake when he answered the phone. "Minister Yang, please arrive at Zhongnanhai for an emergency meeting at 8 o'clock..." Yang Jiechi received the notification at around one o'clock in the morning.Song Tao received the meeting notice ten minutes earlier than Huang Ping. It was about two o'clock when Huang Danhua, deputy director of the SASAC, received the notice of the meeting. The leaders of the China State Construction Bureau and the Civil Aviation Administration of China were notified at around 3:00 in the morning... That night, many people in Zhongnanhai stayed up all night, because various materials needed to be prepared for the meeting at 8 o'clock. The main leaders of dozens of ministries and commissions also cannot sleep. Most of them know that the central government must have a particularly urgent matter after receiving a call. Who can sleep?Those comrades living in the outskirts of the city simply started rushing to Zhongnanhai after receiving the meeting notice... At 6:50, Huang Ping took the evacuation draft that he and Guo Shaochun had prepared and revised for several hours, and rushed to Zhongnanhai with Yang Jiechi, Song Tao and others. "When we arrived at the meeting place of the State Council, it was not yet 7:30, and the heads of all relevant units involved in the operation were almost present!" Huang Ping had a deep memory of the meeting that day.Usually, the State Council meets at 9:00 am, with the exception of February 22, 2011.Because on the eve of this day, President Hu Jintao and Premier Wen Jiabao formally made the decision to evacuate overseas Chinese from Libya, adopting a "state-level response." What is a "National Level Response"?In layman's terms, it is the highest level of mobilization in the country, the same level as the response to the 2008 Wenchuan Earthquake! At 8 o'clock on the 22nd, Zhang Dejiang, Vice Premier of the State Council and Commander-in-Chief of the National Emergency Command for the Libyan Evacuation, came to the venue. "Hey, we're all here! It seems that our team can really pull it off and fight well!" The vice premier nodded in satisfaction.However, this is only a momentary ease.At the beginning of the meeting, the atmosphere suddenly became dignified and tense: the situation in Libya is changing rapidly, and it is deteriorating in an unpredictable direction every minute... "At the meeting that day, our hearts were very heavy, but everyone was very confident and worked hard towards one goal: to overcome all difficulties and rescue our compatriots in accordance with the opinions of the central leadership! The entire decision-making and plan are full of Wisdom, all units have called for the battle, which is touching." During the interview, Foreign Minister Yang Jiechi said to me. "The evacuation of overseas Chinese from Libya involves the lives of tens of thousands of people. It concerns the overall situation. We must do everything possible to ensure the safety of our personnel, do everything possible to ensure the safety of our property, and do everything possible to safeguard our national interests..." Zhang Dejiang emphasized these three "do everything possible "Become the course of action for the entire evacuation campaign. "In such a big battle, we must have a sufficient estimate of the difficulties and be prepared to die... If necessary, we will request the Central Military Commission to dispatch military forces." Dai Bingguo added. The meeting announced that Zhang Dejiang was the commander-in-chief, Dai Bingguo assisted Zhang Dejiang, and Deputy Secretary-General of the State Council You Quan was the general coordinator.All relevant units were in high spirits to fight. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs was designated as the office of the State Council’s Emergency Headquarters. Minister Yang Jiechi was in charge. Secretary of the Ministry’s Party Committee Zhang Zhijun was the leader of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs’ emergency leadership team, and Song Tao and Zhai Jun were the deputy team leaders. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs actually acted as the frontline headquarters for the entire evacuation operation. After the battle was deployed, the largest evacuation operation in China's history began—— "Bang..." The first shot was fired by the Libyan opposition on January 14, 2011 at a construction site called Suluq in Benghazi.When Gaddafi's female bodyguard told him the news, the "King of Africa" ​​snorted dismissively and said, "I am Muammar Gaddafi, not Ben Ali! It's not that easy to get me down!" "Bang bang..." No one seemed to care whether it was two or three gunshots this time, but the angry bullets fired from the barrels of the opposition were already showing something.It was October 20, 2011, nine months and six days after Gaddafi heard the last gunfire.This time Gaddafi spoke again, intermittently and tremblingly: "I am the leader of this country, your father, son, you can't do this..." However, no one listened to him and hid in the concrete culvert. He was dragged out and died under random gunshots. His death was particularly bloody... This is the fate of the ruler of a powerful and dictatorial country, the fate of a "revolutionary leader" who has ruled the country for forty-two years.Everything is changing rapidly, as if even God cannot control it.
