Chapter 8 Chapter 7 Battle of Benghazi

That night, Gao Xiaolin made a total of 23 trips back and forth between the two kilometers of the Litu border. "Except for the first time I sent my compatriots to the Tunisian border gate, I did not dare to send them to the military officer Wang for more than 20 times. I knew they would not let me back, but I couldn't rest assured. I Knowing my role, I have become familiar with the Libyan personnel at the Ras Jedir Port. They are reassuring to me and they also need me to assist them in their work, but I know that Chinese compatriots who want to go abroad need me more. So every time you bring Send out a group of people, and when they see the five-star red flag at the gate of Tunisia, I quickly turn back and bring another group of people..."

"Please pay tribute to this lesbian from the Central South Institute!" Huang Ping and Guo Shaochun were very excited to learn from Ambassador Wang Wangsheng that the Central South Institute had organized more than a thousand compatriots to open the evacuation channel at the Li-Tu border.They admired Gao Xiaolin's behavior even more. This happened in the early hours of the 24th.Before dawn, Gao Xiaolin bid farewell to the Chinese compatriots who were stranded at the Ras Jedir port last night. Instead of following his colleagues to transfer to the safe Tunis airport, Gao Xiaolin returned to the Ras Jedir port with all his clothes on .Because she knows that the number of Chinese compatriots who will pass the border here will be even more, and no one can predict what Libya will look like after dawn...

Definitely harsher. Dozens of other construction units of the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission have assembled in Benghazi, Misrata, Tripoli, Ras Jedir, and the southern central city of Sabha in accordance with the order of the National Emergency Headquarters... The mass evacuation of more than 30,000 Chinese has just begun. If it weren't for the "revolution" launched by the Libyan opposition, I think many Chinese, like me, would know nothing about that city called Benghazi.And now, whether in Libya or in the world, the city of Benghazi has become a household name.

Benghazi is more than a thousand kilometers away from the capital Tripoli and is the second largest city in Libya.It is one east and one west of Tripoli, like two guards guarding the Gulf of Sirte in Libya. Gaddafi, then a lieutenant in the army, ended the Idris dynasty in a bloodless coup in 1969 and has been in power for 42 years.Gaddafi can be regarded as a veteran "King of Africa".He paid too much attention to his tribe, territory and "revolutionary holy land", and did not hesitate to exploit the Benghazi area that was opposed to him, sowing the seeds of disaster for the future.

On February 17, 2011, the flames of unrest ignited in Libya.On the streets of Benghazi, there are groups of old people in long gowns, young people in pullovers, and teenagers holding flags every day. They are all heading for the same destination, and they are rushing to the battle to the death with the Gaddafi regime. battlefield.Countless people armed with earthen guns and submachine guns drove pickup trucks or cars stolen from nowhere - even all kinds of rickshaws were not far behind, filled with water bottles and bullets, and delivered supplies to the opposition .Some of them, kneeling and praying, threw stones and homemade Molotov cocktails at the suppressing army.

In contrast, Gaddafi's army and security personnel are quite modern and fully armed. When the tanks and armored vehicles drove towards the city, experienced engineers such as Alpha Sai rushed forward and poured gasoline on the bridge. A bloody purge of tanks into central Benghazi was prevented. The two days of the 19th and 20th are critical moments for defending the city. Gaddafi vowed to bomb Benghazi. His military base in the city, Katiba, has been playing a role.People in Benghazi know that this "thorn" must be removed in order to protect their children and families.At the beginning, the Benghazi people marched towards the military base in a parade. As a result, countless people were shot down by ruthless bullets. Later, they used stones and homemade incendiary bombs to fight back. As a result, countless people still fell in a pool of blood.

Although Gaddafi's Katiba military base is besieged on all sides, it is still stubbornly resisting, firing bullets and artillery fire.Seeing his acquaintances or relatives fall down one by one, a post office clerk named Mahdi made a shocking move. He drove a car full of explosives and crashed into the wall of the military base... … After a loud bang, Gaddafi's last impregnable military base in Benghazi began to crumble. Later, Mahdi-style Benghazi heroes appeared at the gate of the military base one after another. The soldiers in the Philippines were shocked. They did not want to work for Gaddafi anymore, so they fought back and joined the opposition camp.

Benghazi is an important town in the east of Libya. Gaddafi, who has some military talents, was unwilling to hand over the city to those who opposed him, so he sent a large number of intelligence personnel and foreign mercenaries loyal to him to sneak into Benghazi again and again. destroy. After the 20th, there were more and more gunshots and explosions in the streets and alleys of Benghazi.The chaotic situation made it difficult to distinguish between the enemy and the enemy. The local people suffered unspeakably, and the foreign citizens working here also suffered greatly. The Chinese laborers were the main victims.

At home we don't think we are rich, but in many parts of the world the Chinese have been regarded as the newly rich, especially in the land of Africa.In any riot, the wealthy are always the main targets of attack. Benghazi was the first city to fall into war.Since February 18, in the eastern region centered on Benghazi, tens of thousands of Chinese companies had to withdraw from the port of Benghazi, except for a few one or two batches to evacuate through the Egyptian border. Could Benghazi port be an evacuation port?The domestic emergency headquarters is coordinating and asking again and again, but the answers from the front staff are always vague.In fact, no one can be sure, because there is already a battlefield.There is no safety from missiles and guns.Besides, who knows if there is anyone still managing the port?An unmanaged port is tantamount to a dead port.

Decades ago, this was the battlefield of World War II, and there was a needless sacrifice: a group of Allied forces originally planned to land here to wipe out the enemy, but because they could not find locals familiar with the port, they entered the port rashly. As a result, a few hours later, German planes attacked the place, and hundreds of Allied officers and soldiers were buried on this beach without a sound... Now, both Gaddafi and the opposition understand that Benghazi lives and dies in the port.It's just that they are busy with the offensive and defensive battles in the city at the moment, and no one can care about the port for the time being.

"Seize every minute and every second, and advance to Benghazi Port at full speed!" The Consular Protection Center of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs issued an order-it can't wait any longer. The three large cruise ships rented by my embassy in Greece departed from the port of Patras in Greece and Athens at 7:00 p.m. local time and 12:00 p.m. local time on the 22nd, and headed towards Libya at full speed. Their first destination was Benghazi. Driving in the forefront is the "Spirit of Greece".Chen Xiaxing, director of the Chinese Embassy in Greece, is the person in charge of the response on the cruise ship, and also the general coordinator and commander of the three support ships at sea.After about 14 hours at full speed, the "Spirit of Greece" entered the Gulf of Sirte in Libya. "It was the first time for the cruise ship captain and us to go to Libya. We were neither familiar with the port nor the situation on the shore during the war. To be honest, after sailing from the port of Patras in Greece, during the 14 hours at sea, I imagined various situations after arriving in the Libyan waters. Will our cruise ship be attacked by artillery or aircraft? Will thousands of compatriots on the shore panic and shout 'help'? What should we do? In the movie The images of bullets and bullets kept appearing, which made me very nervous. But when I got there, the scene I saw at first sight was completely different from what I imagined..." Afterwards, Chen Xiaxing said in an interview with me. Passing through the turbulent Mediterranean Sea, the "Spirit of Greece" and the "Olympic Champion" entered the Libyan waters at 9:00 a.m. local time on the 23rd, and they could clearly see the port of Benghazi through the telescope. "Chen, where is the person you want to pick up?" Captain Nikus used the microphone in the bridge to ask Chen Xiaxing, who was busy in the cabin, making preparations for the compatriots on board. "Are you there yet?" Chen Xiaxing hurried to the driver's cab in three steps at a time, grabbed the binoculars, and quickly looked up the shore, only to see the waves lapping on the shore and faint clouds of smoke. Old Chen thought to himself, There may be a war in the distance...other than that, there seems to be nothing on the pier. How is this going?Chen Xiaxing broke out in a cold sweat. "Is it the wrong place?" he asked the captain Nikus. Nikus shook his head and said with certainty: "This is Benghazi." He pointed to the maritime satellite map on the ship, on which Benghazi was clearly and clearly marked, and the location of the "Spirit of Greece" overlapped with it . Chen Xiaxing was really anxious, and immediately snatched the phone from the captain Nikus, and asked Zheng Xiyuan on the other side: "You are in such a hurry to drive us here, why is there no one there?" "This...how is this possible?" Zheng Xiyuan was confused by Chen Xiaxing's questioning, and immediately turned to ask what happened to Huang Ping in China. "Counselor Zheng, don't worry! Just wait until the ship arrives. The people will arrive soon. We are coordinating with relevant units to get them to gather at Benghazi Port immediately. You inform the cruise ship to enter the port as soon as possible." Huang Ping asked the comrades in the liaison team to inform Zheng Xiyuan. Chen Xiaxing didn't understand what was going on until he received Zheng Xiyuan's reply. "Our people will gather at the port soon, please prepare to enter the port immediately." Chen Xiaxing said to the captain Nikos. Captain Nikos immediately asked the first mate to call the Benghazi Port Authority to apply for the "Greek Spirit" and "Olympic Champion" to berth and carry people immediately.But the icy refusal on the pager was non-negotiable, and the two ships were asked to wait one nautical mile from the port. It was a sudden situation that made everyone on board feel very disappointed.Benghazi is the home of the opposition army. In the turbulent situation, simple things have become difficult to operate.The answer of the duty officer of the Benghazi Port Authority is always simple and mechanical: "Please wait here, I wish you good luck." "Without an entry permit and a navigator, our cruise ship cannot enter the port!" Nikus kept shrugging. "Entry permit and pilot?" Chen Xiaxing didn't understand.He thought, does this port also need an entry permit and a pilot like an airport? "Yes, ships entering the port must obtain a port entry permit and be guided by a special navigator, otherwise ships are not allowed to enter the port." Nikus clearly told Chen Xiaxing, "Especially foreign ships entering the port must obtain permission from Libya. The port staff agree, otherwise we are absolutely not allowed to enter the port. This is an international shipping practice. What's more, it is a wartime, if we enter the port without authorization, they can regard it as an act of infringement, and they can..." The captain pointed at the port with his finger. Chen Xiaxing made a "bang" motion of firing a gun on his head. "I don't understand this, you should solve it!" Chen Xiaxing didn't understand maritime laws, he was sent by the country to pick up people, so he didn't care about it! Nikus stared at his eyes, and finally muttered "You are the boss" helplessly, and immediately asked his assistant to try to contact the port authority on the shore.As a result, "they all went to war and couldn't find anyone." Benghazi is really hopeless, and the results of several contacts have been disappointing. "Think of a way!" Chen Xiaxing had no choice but to throw the problem to the captain Nikus.Turning his head, Chen Xiaxing contacted the embassy in Greece again. "What's the matter? Our ship has arrived, but there is no one on the shore! There is no one here in Benghazi to help apply for the ship's entry permit!" Zheng Xiyuan's phone call went to China again.At this time, dozens of telephones in the Consular Protection Center of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs were not enough, and it would take a lot of effort to call in from the front. "Immediately...we will organize the team to assemble on the shore!" Zhu Jiayao from the Liaison Team of the Consular Security Center finally spoke to Zheng Xiyuan and answered him like this.Zhu Jiayao is the newly promoted deputy director of the Consular Insurance Center. He came to report on the first day, thinking that he could go home after simply talking about work, but he was immediately detained by Huang Ping and pushed to the forefront. "How is it?" Chen Xiaxing called Zheng Xiyuan again. "The country is in contact with the front. You are temporarily on standby at sea and ready to enter the port at any time." That's all. "Let's get in touch separately." Just as Chen Xiaxing finished speaking with the captain Nikus, Zhang Chenjue, the accompanying Chinese-funded company's responder, came over unsteadily at this moment. He pointed to the sea and said, "Our ship..." "Where?" Chen Xiaxing quickly looked towards the sea, "Yes! It's our Chinese ship!" He saw a large cargo ship flying the Chinese flag not far away. "There are more here." Zhang Chenjue pointed in another direction. Ah, several ships!Chen Xiaxing was a little excited. At that moment, he knew that he was not fighting alone in Benghazi. Through the telescope, Chen Xiaxing discovered that there are many Chinese ships on the stormy sea!They are "COSCO Qingdao", "New Qinhuangdao", "New Fuzhou", "Tianyangfeng" and "Tianfuhe"... "It's amazing, our China is really amazing!" Chen Xiaxing's heart suddenly surged with enthusiasm.In the process of contacting these Chinese ships, Chen Xiaxing obtained a lot of information. These ships are cargo ships under the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission. They all arrived in this sea area before Chen Xiaxing, and performed the same task-evacuation of overseas Chinese! "We are a cargo ship and cannot enter the port, so we can only stand by here." Friends Ship told Chen Xiaxing. "The higher authorities ordered us to hang up the national flag even if we couldn't get people, so that the compatriots on the shore can see hope and see that the motherland is by their side!" Said the captain of another ship. Yes, that's what matters!In times of crisis, a national flag can stabilize the emotions of compatriots in despair and firmly believe in victory!Only then did Chen Xiaxing understand the painstaking and thoughtful arrangements for mobilizing thousands of troops to Benghazi. In fact, although most of these state-owned ocean-going cargo ships did not directly participate in receiving the evacuated compatriots to their own ships, their contributions cannot be underestimated.In particular, they arrived at the designated sea area as quickly as possible, and raised five-star red flags high above the sea, which played a vital role in stabilizing the emotions of the compatriots on the shore. Now, let's move the camera to Chen Xiaxing's most concerned question, "Where is the person to meet?" Yes, the ship is here, where are our people?This is also what Huang Ping and Guo Shaochun are most concerned about. "CCCC! CCCC! Please report the specific location of your team in Benghazi." "I am China Communications Corporation! Our team in Benghazi is mainly assembled at the original camp to stand by! The rest of the scattered teams are also approaching Benghazi..." "Now I order you to immediately organize a team to head to the port of Benghazi, where there are already two cruise ships waiting. Please start preparing to organize your company's personnel to board the ship, and at the same time help organize the evacuation of other Chinese-funded company personnel as soon as possible! Make no mistakes!" "Yes! Let's act now!" After receiving the instruction from the Consular Protection Center of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, CCCC headquarters immediately notified Yang Yuemin, Secretary of the Party Committee of the Libya General Project Department of the Fourth Public Administration Bureau in Benghazi. "Execute immediately!" Yang Yuemin had been waiting for this order for several days.These days, as the general manager of the front, he is always sweating for the safety of the 2,198 employees under him.Under the leadership of the group company, Yang Yuemin and his company were one of the first units in Benghazi to realize that there might be chaos in Libya, and they had done adequate preparations. On February 18, Yang Yuemin realized that the situation in Benghazi was deteriorating and might lead to chaos at any time. After consulting the country for instructions, he first launched a safety emergency plan. Important documents and approved drawings are transferred to the living base of the project company. On the 20th, according to the deteriorating local situation, they quickly launched the company's self-rescue plan, decisively organized the construction personnel to evacuate the construction site, office area and operation area, and reduced all personnel in seven project departments and four construction sites to two life camp. "A patrol team consists of 100 people, and every three patrol teams form a wing. Each camp consists of three wings and nine squads, patrolling day and night. Each patrol member must wear a hard hat and be issued with wooden and steel sticks. Patrol personnel are on duty in three shifts to ensure the safety of the camp! Do you understand?" Yang Yuemin adopted a military establishment and implemented self-rescue measures in every link.More than 40 women were also organized to set up a propaganda team and put up slogans and banners everywhere, encouraging employees to stand up bravely and participate in self-help. The measures taken by CCCC Sigong Bureau are extremely effective. On the 20th and 21st, the thugs attempted to enter the camp dozens of times to rob and commit violence, but they were all blocked by the employees of the Fourth Public Security Bureau of CCCC who were united and united. Yang Yuemin's CCCC No. 4 Public Bureau camp has thus become the strongest camp and evacuation base camp for Chinese citizens in the Benghazi area. "Notify the relevant units and let them assemble and board the ship at the port immediately!" This was the first "evacuation order" issued by Yang Yuemin as the evacuation commander of the Benghazi area. "Why weren't we among the first people to board the boat?" Someone suddenly shouted in the camp. "Yeah, we gave them our own food and water, but let them board the boat first, it's not fair!" After waiting for nearly a week, the employees who hoped to escape the flames of war inevitably became nervous and angry when they heard that they were not the first to board the ship to evacuate. "Because we are members of CCCC. We have more strength! The other Chinese units are few and scattered. They are more dangerous than us, so we should let them withdraw first!" Yang Yuemin explained the truth, and no one in the whole company said anything. A whining word. "Let the brother units withdraw first!" In the camp of the Fourth Public Bureau of China Communications Corporation, this notice was quickly spread to everyone's ears. This incident was reported to Liang of Sinohydro Zhuli Company, which moved the seven-foot man a lot. "Although nearly 1,000 of our people are going to be evacuated in two batches, this is because they have given us the first place to board the ship. Please explain to the front staff. We must hurry up and get the first batch of 604 evacuees Escort to the port safely, without any mistakes!" Liang passed this order to the front commander of the camp near Benghazi. At this moment, he recalled the scene when Liu Yufei and the others learned about the boarding quota—— "Finally we can go!" "We are saved!" The Chinese employees at Sinohydro's Marj camp cheered when they heard the news.This team of nearly a thousand people is not easy. They have been fighting alone for four or five days in the war-torn Danwan Jedi!Especially the three or four hundred people who were originally in the construction camp in Stillhamry. Their camp was completely ransacked by mobs, and they spent three days and three nights in the deserted desert. "The first batch of evacuated people given by the superior was 600 people, so 376 people had to find another evacuation route." The Sinohydro Marj camp, which was still in joy just now, fell into pain again. what to do?Who should go first? The final result of the discussion was that the employees and women of the Stein Hamri Camp, who had suffered the most, and their family members and children should go first. "The 64 Thai, Sri Lankan and Bangladeshi employees must also be taken away!" Liu Yufei said to Zong Chengyue, the Chinese manager of the Still Hamri project. "That is necessary." Zong Chengyue nodded, and suddenly remembered an important thing, "We still have 12 wounded in Benghazi Hospital!" Liu Yufei said calmly: "I have asked Li Shijie, the Arabic translator of the project department, to ask his Libyan friends for help, and they also evacuated with the boat." "Brother Yufei, what about you? Which team are you going with?" Zong Chengyue quietly asked Liu Yufei. "Me? Naturally go to Benghazi with the big troops." Liu Yufei smiled mysteriously at Zong Chengyue, and then added, "But I will send you to the camp near there, and then come back and take the rest of the people out of Libya!" "Mr. Liu, you are a good guy!" Zong Chengyue opened his arms suddenly and hugged Liu Yufei tightly, two lines of hot tears streaming down the other's sleeves. Liu Yufei stood there motionless, his eyes moistened, and he saw the inseparable scene of the two teams outside the camp that were about to separate and evacuate. Everyone seemed to be worried about each other... The scene seemed to be a farewell. Yes, who can guarantee that people who take a boat to Benghazi will be safe? Those who stay will have to travel across the desert and through several war zones, beset by danger. Will they make it out alive? I don't know, no one knows.But at the moment all Chinese employees know only one thing: their motherland is doing whatever it takes to get them out of Libya. The roads leading to Benghazi have long been damaged and beyond recognition.Liu Yufei and all the team members of the Marj camp organized teams in two groups, and safely transferred 604 people (including several compatriots from other units entrusted by the embassy to take them in) to a camp near the port of Benghazi, waiting Embarkation order. "In those three hours or so, we set off from the campsite and walked to Benghazi in the stormy and dark night. Flying overhead, our clothes were drenched in rain and shivering in the cold, and we forgot about it. When we arrived near the port of Benghazi, although we were hungry and cold, we didn’t seem to care. All we thought about was when to board the ship.” A worker recorded the scene at that time. The ones who are really anxious right now are Huang Ping and Guo Shaochun from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The evacuation team of thousands of people has already assembled for Benghazi, which is in the midst of war. If you don't have a boat, isn't that fatal? The compatriots in front don't know that there is another deadly sword hanging over their heads-at the moment, the UN headquarters is holding a closed-door meeting on how to deal with Gaddafi's suppression of the rebels.The Western world represented by the United States, Britain, and France has gradually lost patience with Gaddafi, and they are planning a comprehensive plan to deal with Gaddafi... Such a result will undoubtedly push Libya into a full-scale war.At that time, who can come out! The Central Committee, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission... people all over the country are anxious and worried about the fate of our compatriots in Liberia! "Are you Secretary Yang Yuemin of the Fourth Public Bureau of CCCC? I am Guo Shaochun of the Emergency Center of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Now there is a particularly urgent matter that needs to be resolved immediately..." Brothers are organizing a camp near Benghazi to gather at the port Yang Yuemin suddenly received an urgent domestic order, asking his unit to get through the relationship with the Benghazi port within a few hours, and to receive two cruise ships moored on the sea and another cruise ship that is about to arrive at the port. "I'll do it right away!" Without saying a word, Yang Yuemin immediately took an interpreter, boarded a car driven by a local driver, and headed straight to Benghazi... "Avoid the place where the war is fought, and take other roads to see if there is any suitable route for our large troops." Along the way, Yang Yuemin directed the driver to pass through the rugged and winding trails, while scouting the battle situation along the way. The port is here.There are only a few guards left at the port terminal where hundreds of people usually work. "Gaddafi killed our people, everyone went to fight!" The Libyans who stayed on the pier were also armed with submachine guns, ready to go to the front line at any time. "We are Chinese. Now our ship is on the sea. We need to enter the port to pick up our compatriots. Please help." Yang Yuemin managed to find a port officer in charge through the driver. "The power here no longer belongs to the government, and I dare not make the decision." The man shook his head, expressing that he couldn't help, "You'd better find the elders here." "Where does the elder live?" "It's in town." Yang Yuemin gasped, who else in Benghazi would dare to go in?Can I get an entry pass if I don't enter? "Go! Go into the city!" Yang Yuemin waved his hand and asked the driver to drive into the city. "It's too dangerous! The city is full of opposition!" The driver quit. "What are you afraid of? Don't you also hate Gaddafi?" Yang Yuemin was in a hurry, and said to the driver with rounded eyes.He picked up a piece of red cloth from the car, tore off a piece with a "wow", and quickly tied it on the driver's right arm: "Aren't you also a revolutionary government opponent? Go! Go to the elders!" The driver wearing the red cuff suddenly regained his spirits, stepped on the accelerator hard, and the car galloped through the streets and alleys... "Please elders help us." In a Muslim building, Yang Yuemin bowed deeply, and sincerely said to a tribal elder who was praying. The translator and the driver moved several boxes of food in the car to the elder's home. "You are good people and help us build houses and roads. Allah should bless you." The elder clasped his hands together and prayed while chanting. "Just go to him." The elder handed Yang Yuemin a small note with a phone number written on it. "Thank you! Thank you for your help." Yang Yuemin took this note and found another elder's son. The permit to enter the port was finally obtained. Huang Ping and Guo Shaochun learned the news around 11:30 midnight on the 23rd Beijing time. "Notify the ships on the sea to enter the port immediately!" At this time, it was almost evening in Benghazi, and the darkening sea was full of wind and waves.Chen Xiaxing, who was on the "Spirit of Greece", had an illusion at this moment: when he boarded the ship in Patras, he felt that the "Spirit of Greece" was like an aircraft carrier, but now it has become small and poor-it is simply a rickety ship. Akira's little sampan! "Chen, we have persuaded the Benghazi Port Authority through our international maritime tourism relationship that they have agreed to allow our two ships to enter the port to carry people!" Captain Nikos said. "Why didn't you say it earlier?!" Chen Xiaxing was so happy that he punched Nikos on the left shoulder.In order to obtain this permission, Chen Xiaxing hastily grayed out a few strands of hair. "But boss, the other party has a condition." Nikus looked a little unhappy. "What conditions? Just say it." Nikus made a gesture of counting money. "How much?" Chen Xiaxing asked. "A port entry fee of $21,000 per vessel." "21,000 U.S. dollars? Acceptable." Chen Xiaxing pondered for a while, wondering why he made a small change, "Is that 1,000 U.S. dollars what you want?" Nikus blushed a little and said: "No, it was proposed by the middleman." Chen Xiaxing smiled and thought, as long as the ship can enter the port and my compatriots are guaranteed to board the ship, small money is nothing! "I agree!" Chen Xiaxing said readily. "They want cash, and they have to pay right away. After the payment, someone will come and take us into Hong Kong." Nikus' eyes were fixed on his current "Chinese boss"——Chen Xiaxing. "I want it now? Where did I get so much cash!" Chen Xiaxing's eyes widened when he heard this!He looked at Zhang Chenjue standing beside him, meaning did you bring any money?Zhang Chenjue shook his head pitifully at Old Chen. The veins on Chen Xiaxing's forehead popped out, and he subconsciously touched his pockets. In fact, he didn't even need to touch him to know that he only had more than a thousand euros with him.what to do?He made a phone call to Counselor Zheng Xiyuan. "You have to find a way right away, otherwise we won't be able to enter the port!" Chen Xiaxing was a little reckless. "Even if I fly there, it will take several hours to get to your boat!" Zheng Xiyuan told Chen Xiaxing, "You won't ask the captain to borrow it? I guess they should bring cash." "Why should I borrow from others?" Chen Xiaxing felt embarrassed. "Sign an IOU, saying that our government will definitely pay him back including the interest." "Do you believe my signature, Chen Xiaxing?" "Why don't you believe it? You, old Chen, signed all the big bills. You dare not sign for a mere tens of thousands of dollars? Sign it! Organize to pick up people in Hong Kong immediately after signing!" Zheng Xiyuan said. "You...you boy have hurt me a lot!" Chen Xiaxing was about to jump up, he scolded Zheng Xiyuan across the sea, and said that he would settle the score with him when he went back! "Haha...Brother Chen, don't be angry! Don't worry, just sign! Behind you is our powerful motherland!" Zheng Xiyuan hung up the phone after saying this. It can only be like this.Now entering Hong Kong to save compatriots is the most important thing!Chen Xiaxing raised his spirits, walked up to Captain Nikos and said, "I don't have any money with me for the time being, please Mr. Captain help me to pay in advance. Don't worry, Mr. Nikus, I am borrowing money from you on behalf of the Chinese government. My signature will be fulfilled!" Nikus blinked, looked at Chen Xiaxing, and then at Zhang Chenjue, can you trust them?He has some doubts.If you don't believe them, what can you do? "Okay! We have to sign a loan agreement." Nikus took a piece of paper helplessly. "No problem." This time, Chen Xiaxing's hands didn't shake, and he signed it very smartly.He is the leader of the maritime response team, and he signed all the fees for the three ships entering the port: 63,000 US dollars. Money is not everything, but nothing is impossible without money.In a state of war, cash is very useful, but money alone does not necessarily get everything done.Chen Xiaxing’s experience in this evacuation mission is that it is very important for China, which is now prosperous and strong, to have money. Without this, many things are difficult to do, but China relies not only on money, but more importantly on its own national spirit . However, another dramatic unexpected situation appeared.The port authority informed that there is no navigator at the port.And so another round of heart-wrenching waiting began.Chen Xiaxing and the captain worry that the passenger ship will not be able to enter the port after dark, which means that the evacuees will not be able to board the ship until tomorrow. At 17:40 local time, the navigator finally appeared after learning that there was a business of tens of thousands of dollars here. "Woo--" the whistle sounded for a long time, and the "Greek Spirit" and "Olympic Champion" appeared in Benghazi Port one after another and moored steadily.Several other Chinese freighters were told they could not berth due to their deep draft. "My God! Where did these people come from?!" When Chen Xiaxing looked at the shore again, his head was foggy, and thousands of people were crowded on the pier like ants.Before the cruise ship stopped, the crowd began to commotion, crying and screaming... The next scene is equally tricky.Benghazi port managers demanded a maritime inspection first.In fact, there are no professional maritime officials in the chaotic port. The Libyans who boarded the ship looked like "rebels" who had just seized power.They asked some rambling questions in English with a French accent, and the Greek captain, well informed, promptly brought them steaming coffee, together with chocolates and biscuits.The expressions of the Li side personnel softened, and everyone chatted affectionately.It turned out that such a beautiful luxury cruise ship had never been parked here. They thought it was very strange, and many people wanted to board the ship to see it.Group after group of Benghazi people began to board the ship for inspection.Obviously, many so-called "port managers" brought their families, including children, on board.The captain is well aware of the truth that "everyone who comes is a guest", and invites them into his special restaurant to treat them one by one. During the nearly two-hour so-called "incoming ship inspection" process, the escorts, captain, first mate, etc. have been deliberately catering to these uninvited guests who do not understand and do not follow the rules.Everyone has a high degree of consensus, no matter how difficult it is, it is better to deal with than pirates. The most urgent task is to complete the procedures as soon as possible, so that the Chinese evacuees in the port area can board the ship as soon as possible. At about 19:30 local time, the two ships were finally allowed to open the hatches to carry passengers after exhausting all the gifts such as tobacco, alcohol and perfume on board. "Dear compatriots, we are sent by the Chinese government to meet you. Please rest assured that all Chinese are allowed to board the ship. Now please obey the order and prepare to board the ship..." Chen Xiaxing said to the dock through the broadcast in the captain's room. Shout out, and tell the captain: first reserve 100 cabins for the injured and the elderly and infirm; prepare enough food, and eat immediately after boarding. "Get on board!" "Let's get aboard!" The crowd rushed towards the cruise ship quickly, like a surging tide. "This won't work, it will be dangerous!" Chen Xiaxing, Zhang Chenjue, and even Captain Nicus had never seen such a scene. "I'll go down and coordinate with their leaders, otherwise something serious will happen!" Chen Xiaxing asked the captain to put down the gangway, and he was the first to run to the shore. "Which of you is the leader?" Chen Xiaxing shouted from the crowd. "I am, I am the project manager of Sinohydro." Someone walked up to Chen Xiaxing. Chen Xiaxing immediately introduced himself: "I am Director Chen Xiaxing sent by the Chinese embassy in Greece to meet you. Now I ask your unit to organize people well. Three cruise ships have been sent to Benghazi, and all Chinese compatriots can board and leave here, so there is no need to rush. Tell compatriots, each of us will return home safely!" "Understood!" The project leader of the Chinese-funded enterprise immediately assumed the responsibility of organizing and maintaining order at the scene. "China Hydropower, please gather here!" "The ones from Lianyungang are here." "Jiangsu Nantong Sanjian came here..." Teams from different regions quickly lined up at the pier in an orderly manner, with bright red five-star national flags at the head of their line... This formation made Chen Xiaxing's eyes warm: the Chinese are really amazing! "Go!" Chen Xiaxing ordered. “哗啦啦——”两千余人一拥而上，将“希腊精神”号上上下下占了个满满当当！ “他们不能上！”船长尼库斯带着几个船员，突然出现在舱口，组成一道人墙，将中水电驻利公司的64名泰国籍、孟加拉籍和斯里兰卡籍员工死死地挡在舱外，“我们有协议，这条船只准运你们中国人！” “可他们是我们公司的雇员！”中水电的领队不干了，冲陈夏兴说。如果不把这些泰国、孟加拉、斯里兰卡籍雇员带上，他们十有八九就可能死在这里，谁能负得起这种责任？“我们负责不了，你陈主任负得了吗？” 陈夏兴被逼得无计可施。这边船长尼库斯坚决不让上，说：“如果让他们上了船，一旦他们到了希腊不愿离开，成为难民，我的政府就会取消我的航海资格，我们不仅会失业，而且还要坐牢！”那头中资公司的领导再三地陈述：“在这种情况下，如果光是我们中国人自己走了，留下了雇用的外国籍劳工，一旦他们出了问题，损害的不仅是中资公司在海外的声誉，更是我们国家的形象！” “郑参赞，你说什么好事偏偏都给我赶上了！快告诉我怎么处理！”陈夏兴硬着头皮又将电话打到正在雅典值班的郑曦原参赞那里。 “别急，老陈，我马上与希腊外交部联系，他们的意见才是关键……”不等陈夏兴把话说完，使馆的电话已经挂了。 “怎么回事？还不让上啊？”中资公司的人催魂似的一遍又一遍问陈夏兴。 可怜的陈夏兴此刻像个受气包，不是被自己人臭骂，就是被尼库斯船长翻白眼。 “怎么样了？”陈夏兴唯一能做的就是时不时给让他“恨透了的小子”郑曦原打电话。 “正在联系……”半个小时里，郑曦原至少这样回答了五次以上。 “快点吧，郑少爷，我求求你了！再不处理，要出人命啦！”陈夏兴不是在吓唬郑曦原。听说船长不让非中国人上船，一个孟加拉籍员工死死抓着缆绳就是不放，希腊船员急了，狠命用脚踢，挥鞭子抽，那孟加拉人就是不松手。“推下去！推到海里喂鱼！”如果不是现场的中国人劝阻，希腊船员们真干得出来。 陈夏兴受不了这种场面，他想劝阻船长和希腊船员，可人家就是不松口。“放他们上船，等于让我自杀！”尼库斯铁青着脸这样说。 “他们是我们公司的雇员，如果他们不能上船，我们也不走了！”这边没消停，那边已经上船的中资公司的人嚷嚷开了。 “我说同胞们，你们就别添乱了好不好？”陈夏兴赶紧又去安抚那些嚷嚷的人。干了几十年外交工作，这等苦差事陈夏兴从来就不曾遇见过。现在他是“希腊精神”号两千多人撤离队伍的总接应人，是船上、码头五六千人的现场总指挥，出了任何事情，陈夏兴都得担起来。他可不想在还有100天就退休的关键时刻毁了自己的“一世英名”。 “郑参赞，郑老弟，郑少爷，你到底联系得怎么样了？我真扛不住了，我的天！”陈夏兴再次给郑曦原打电话时都不知说什么好。 “咋，子弹真在你头上飞了？”雅典那边，郑曦原半真半假地这样问。 “我宁可一颗子弹飞来把我报销得了！”陈夏兴没处发牢骚，只能当着同事稍稍赌气。 “告诉你，希腊政府已经同意了，只要孟加拉、斯里兰卡和泰国政府出面担保他们这些人不在希腊停留，他们就可以同我们中国同胞一起上你们的船。你告诉现场的孟加拉人、泰国人和斯里兰卡人，让他们暂时等一等，他们的国家正与希腊外交部协调。”郑曦原在电话里这么说。 “你总算给老哥做了一件好事！回到雅典我请你上馆子。”陈夏兴这回感激起来。 没多久，船长尼库斯接了一个电话，那是希腊政府传给他的指令：可以让孟加拉、泰国和斯里兰卡人上船。 一场风波总算平息。 这样，陈夏兴他们的“希腊精神”号接收了2100名中国同胞（另有64名外籍雇员）上船，成为首批从海上撤离的队伍…… 海上撤侨战幕如此拉开。它曲折而激烈，它磅礴而壮丽，它动魄而惊心。它还有许多我们想象不到的事。 沈健与陈夏兴各负责一条邮轮，他上的是“奥林匹克冠军”号，与陈夏兴的那条“希腊精神”号前后脚出发。 从22日下午接受任务到上船，沈健只有一个半小时的准备时间，连看一眼正在雅典读书的妻子和发烧多日的幼女都不行，时间实在太紧了。这是一个刚刚建立不久的和美家庭，妻子漂亮，女儿可爱。 上海外国语大学毕业的沈健，因为学的是希腊语专业，所以一到我驻希腊大使馆就成了“宝贝”。年轻漂亮的妻子跟随他来到雅典，边学习边操持自己的小家。平时小两口工作、学习都很忙，还要照看幼女。 撤侨任务下来后，沈健深知利比亚局势变幻莫测，心里放不下妻女，担心自己有什么三长两短，所以临上船前，他给妻子打了手机说：“亲爱的，我要去班加西撤侨。”妻子只在电话里“嗯”了一声，其他什么话都没有，这让沈健心里空荡荡的。他原本想，如果妻子听说他要去班加西，担忧或是惊恐的话，他会好好安慰她一番。 沈健就是怀着这样的心情离开雅典的，离开牵挂着的妻女。沈健是第一次登船走海路，停泊在码头的“奥林匹克冠军”号看上去庞大而雄伟，可一出海，尤其遇上地中海少有的飓风恶浪之后，如一叶小舟。 一路上心里空荡荡的沈健，遭受着邮轮剧烈颠簸的折腾。十几个小时后，当沈健从感觉生不如死的舱底来到甲板，看到岸头人山人海的撤离同胞在那里又哭又喊，争先恐后地抢着要上船的情景时，他什么都忘了，仿佛一下恢复了元气和力量。他“噌”地跳到邮轮的一个门舱高处，挥动着国旗，手中持着喇叭高声喊道：“同胞们，要相信祖国，相信祖国不会放弃你们中间的每一个人！请你们有秩序地排队上船，我们一定会把你们带回家的！请相信我，相信祖国……” “希腊精神”号率先关闭舱门离港后，人群一下子全跑到“奥林匹克冠军”号这边来，原先的两条长龙变成了四条，而且慢慢地散开，有连成一片的趋势。沈健挤下狭窄的舷梯，走入情绪开始不稳的人群中呼喊：“党和政府一定会带走每一位公民，四艘中国货轮就在港口外面，明天一早还会有客轮进港……” 就在这时，港区下起了小雨，乌黑的天空暗示，很快滂沱大雨就会倾盆而下。沈健把安抚工作留给中资公司的领队们，跑去找船长“网开一面”。船长是个性情中人，他说：“我这条船标准载客量是1600人，船上只有1800件救生衣，根据欧盟规定，即使是最危急的时刻，最大限度也只能放宽至2100人。”沈健告诉他，船舱里加上外面的暴雨中淋着的肯定不止2100人，一定要把他们都带走，多留一天就多一分危险。船长沉思片刻后，应允带走港区内每一个中国人，但要求中方必须承担由此产生的一切风险。 沈健把电话打到了郑曦原参赞手上。郑参赞立即请示国内，说班加西下起了倾盆大雨，但希腊船长坚持按照欧盟法律规定载运我方人员，将会有好几百人滞留雨中，而且形势也在恶化，处境十分危险。是不是坚持要求希腊船长放人上船，由中方承担一切风险责任？ 黄屏觉得这个问题十分棘手，赶紧冲进了宋涛副部长的办公室。半小时后，驻希腊使馆接到国内指示：班加西码头上的中方人员全部上船，一个不留。 沈健马上将这一消息通过扩音器发出。他欣慰地发现，话音刚落，方才还是一片混乱的场面就静了下来，人们开始完全按照沈健的要求，一队一队自觉有序地排列上船，直到岸上的每一个同胞都上船为止。最终，船超载近800人。 这个夜晚，是宋涛人生中最漫长难挨的一夜……然而，此时此刻，他必须作出这样的决定：你们出港吧！ 天又黑下来时，等待一天的电话终于打进来了。 “到了，他们到克里特了。”听到前方的报告，宋涛一下瘫倒在沙发上。 我们需要把镜头拉回到班加西，拉回到开船那一刻的沈健这边。 “我从来没有想到自己还有那么大的号召力！那一刻，我真的感到'祖国'二字在同胞心目中的分量！”沈健后来把这一幕讲给了他的妻子房敏洁听，妻子也为自己的丈夫有过这段经历而感动。撤侨一年之后，沈健回上海探亲时，又把令他自豪的这一幕说给同学们听，让他惊愕的是，那些同学听沈健满怀深情地重复了那段“请相信我”、“请相信祖国”的话后，竟然一个个捧腹大笑。笑过之后，他们嘲讽沈健“太雷人了”。对此，沈健至今仍感郁闷，他不明白为什么今天那些生活在太平盛世中的人们竟然会对“祖国”有一种不信任感。沈健这份带着纯真的郁闷，其实正是我们今天需要进行爱国主义教育的原因之一。 我深切而强烈地知道，所有参与和经历利比亚撤侨过程的人，他们对“祖国”的理解则是完全不同的，他们这种不同的理解和感受才是13亿人民中的主流。沈健其实用不着为那些嘲笑而郁闷，因为那些嘲笑者如同吃了太多蜜汁，甜得不知何为甜了，他们甚至已经忘却了为什么他们能吃到那么香甜的蜜汁。 哲人说过，生在幸福美满之中而不知为什么幸福美满的人，其结果只会是悲惨的，而只有懂得珍惜幸福美满的人才会获得真正的幸福美满。 沈健看到自己的同胞一个个登上船，美美地吃上意大利面条，伸展开四肢躺在豪华邮轮的一张张干净温馨的床铺上，鼾声如雷的情景时，他感到了幸福，感到了自己的价值，感到了一种前所未有的责任和使命，那便是他心底一直在掂量的“国家”二字。 年轻的外交官第一次深切和强烈地体会到了老一代外交官常挂在嘴上的那句“我们是国家的代表”的真实含义。 为这，沈健感觉到自己似乎变成了国家的化身，他完全忘了什么是疲劳，像一个久经沙场的军人，转达国内和使馆的慰问，召集船上中资公司领队维持好船上秩序，分配下一步行动任务；他像一个饱经风雨的长者，确保每一位伤员和女同胞住进船舱，让每一位饥饿了几天的同胞吃饱吃好；他又像一个慈爱而刚健的父亲，鼓励和安抚那些惊魂失神的同胞勇敢起来，耐心解答撤离人员的所有疑虑；他又像一个细心的母亲，走到沉睡之中的同胞身边给他们盖好被子，系好舱帘…… 他自己吐得五脏出窍，却要一处处督促希腊船员为同胞迅速擦洗甲板，抹掉污秽；他自己几十个小时没有合眼，却时而走进厨舱查看饮食供给，时而协助船上医护人员救治伤员；他自己已几天没与妻子娇女通一个电话，却兴高采烈地为一个又一个同胞拨通远在祖国的亲人的手机和座机…… 此时，班加西港成功完成第一役四千余人的撤离任务。这印证了以海路作为撤离行动主线这一决策的正确性。整个大撤离行动中，5艘次中国货轮、1艘次中国军舰、11艘次外国邮轮总共撤离了18187人，占到了撤离人员总数的一半多。然而，此时更多的同胞从各个营地和工地正在向时局越发危急的班加西港集结…… 啊，班加西，你能否给无辜的生灵多一点安宁的时间？可卡扎菲说：“那些已经把灵魂和肉体全都卖给西方世界的人，必定在我的机枪和炸弹下面获得报应。”而反对派则用更多的土制武器和“友国”给予的肩扛式反坦克导弹回击卡扎菲。班加西因此而随时可能陷入更残酷的血腥之中。 “你们现在有多少人？赶快往港口靠拢！” “对，如果不在这两天从海上撤离，你们还能往哪儿走啊？想跳海游过地中海？” “不，没有其他路可走，往东往西都在打仗，往炮火里钻会是什么结果？” "withdraw!" “撤往港口去！” 两艘船走了，后续的船正在进港。 4000人走了，更多人在战火烧身的危急时刻更想早一分钟离开班加西！ “使馆！使馆！我的人到港口了，怎么不见船啊？” “他们已经几天没吃没喝，跑了几百里路。如果再等下去，我无法保证他们不出事！赶紧来救救我们呀！” 班加西港口的陆岸上，又一次出现人涌如潮的场景。那些望海而不见船影的人，有的在绝望中呼号，有的则因寒冷、饥饿倒下……这情形，急死了工友，更急坏了领头的。于是一个个救助的电话打到我驻利使馆，打到外交部…… “那么多人一齐挤到港口，如不能及时安排撤离，危险太大！” 班加西的紧急情况再次惊动中南海。 “如果人一下都拥到港口，又不能全都及时上船撤离，势必会引发骚乱。再说，一旦卡扎菲的军队扔炸弹和封锁港口，后果将不堪设想！” “应当立即改变战术，采取'蓄水池'的办法：将一部分马上要登船的人往港口靠，其余准备撤离的后续队伍安置在港口附近，保持一定的距离。这样，如果港口已知船只到达，就立即组织他们向港口靠，并迅速上船。” “对，'蓄水池'撤离办法好！” 又一个不眠之夜。国务院应急总指挥张德江、国务委员戴秉国等中央领导及时给前方作出了“蓄水池”撤离战术指令，在最短的时间里传达到利比亚，传达到班加西…… 说起“蓄水池”，可追溯张德江副总理主政广东期间。当时，他为了解决年年春运数以万计的农民工滞留火车站的难题，想出了一个叫做“蓄水池”的办法：首先腾空广州火车站附近的大型体育场馆，让所有等待乘车返乡的农民工先在那里集中安置，再根据火车运力安排，组织整队的农民工有序前往火车站乘车。这样既确保了农民工能够平安回家过年，又维护了车站秩序，避免了因为混乱可能引发的群体性事件。副总理也许不曾想到，“蓄水池”之法竟然会用在利比亚大撤侨战役之中。 雨中的夜幕下。 班加西市郊的中建20000套住宅项目营地，灯火零星，忽暗忽明，这里现在是中国撤侨利比亚东部前线的临时指挥部。他们所承担的责任非同寻常，既要保证自己几千人的人身安全，还要组织好撤离行动，协调好整个东部地区中方人员的撤离工作。 “你们那里现在已经集结了多少人？” “加上我们自己的人已经差不多有五千多了！” “好，'奥林匹克冠军'号和'希腊精神'号刚刚搭载四千余人离开港口，向克里特岛撤离，他们还会来一次班加西。几小时后，另一艘从希腊过来的邮轮即将到港，你们要全力组织好周边的中资单位人员撤离。同时要千万注意，据我们收到的情报，卡扎菲军队将对班加西城有一次新的军事报复行动，所以我们在码头上的人不能集结太多，每次上船的人数和时间一定要掌握好，必须确保所有人员的安全！” "clear." 中建前方临时指挥部与外交部黄屏、郭少春他们领保中心的联系始终处在高频率之中。 “你是中水电的樊总吗？今晚安排你们的人上船，务请你们尽快组织好，提前两小时在港口集结。”这是临时指挥部向兄弟单位发出的指令。 一处沙漠中的隐蔽营地里，疲于奔命的中水电余部刚刚歇脚，就接到上面的通知，群情立即振奋起来。 “我是樊总！我们的人将按照指令准时到达港口！” “好。祝你们一路顺风！” 刚刚接到撤离指令的樊总又拿起手机，向他分散在五六个地方的员工小分队——都是些被暴徒冲击分散的队伍——发出集合通知。可是信号断断续续，无法联系上所有单位，这让樊总焦急万分。 “小朱，你怎么才回电呀？把我快急死了！你那边的人员怎么样了？上面已经让我们撤了，你们迅速往我们这边靠拢，然后我们一起向港口方向走……”樊总好不容易与属下小朱联系上。 小朱是公司某工地的负责人，他在营地惨遭暴徒袭击后，带着一支队伍躲避到当地供应商艾门家。小朱还有一个更重要的任务：公司让他利用熟悉班加西情况的优势，争取联系到一批车辆，以便公司在紧急撤离时使用。 班加西已经打得分不清谁是敌，谁是友，谁是中间冒出来的第三方（数千监狱犯人被放出来），形形色色的人都冲上街头，横扫商店，抢劫外国人驻地……现今，到哪儿找车去？几乎所有的卡车、轿车甚至三轮车都被反对派拉去，当做抵抗卡扎菲军队的“战斗武装”。 “无论如何，我们是朋友，你得想法！我们还要回来帮助你们建设家园，这个忙你一定要帮！”小朱聪明机智，又精通阿拉伯语，他刚刚拐弯抹角找到当地的旅游公司老板，将樊总交代的车辆落实好，正躲在艾门家的一个墙角里续写前一天的日记…… 此时是23日晚上，外面的枪声断断续续，躲藏在艾门家的同胞在疲惫中深睡着。小朱借着一丝昏黄的灯光，翻了翻前几天的日记。 班加西已经乱了三天。今天暴乱终于波及到工地来了。下午总包召开会议，讲撤离计划，艾门答应提供车辆和仓库的支持。下午我去工地后面的一处仓库认路，路上亲眼见到了一车暴徒劫持当地车辆，可怕！ 听说班加西市的军队武器库被民众哄抢，同时由于狱警逃跑，监狱里的几千犯人冲出高墙，流窜到社会上来。傍晚时分，进入整体警戒。晚饭后不久，一伙暴徒就窜进搅拌站，持枪抢走两辆小车，人心惶惶至极。考虑到搅拌站人员过少，我和冯铸江觉得撤到砖厂为好。 到砖厂后，又是一波冲击。整晚这里还算平静，但总包和各项目被抢、被打、被赶、被冲击的消息不断传来。总包失守，青岛公司流血冲突，土木被烧。望着远近各处熊熊的火光和浓烟，听着四周各样的叫喊、咆哮声，挨到了近黎明时，整晚心惊胆战，人生中最长的一个黑夜终于要过去了。 搅拌站被抢后写在工作服上的日记：2011.2.20下午开会，商量可能撤离。晚间阿人开始进入工地抢车。搅（搅拌站）两辆车被抢走，人和砖、木门厂合一处，人心惶惶。害怕手机被抢，特把重要联络人电话写下来。 一大早，暴乱、抢夺一晚的人群疲惫地“满载而归”。我们终于有松口气的时间。紧急联系艾门，大车来拉人，我和小冯开砖厂的车去三号门接应。可是昨晚为了阻止暴徒，将所有的道路切断，车头已无法进入。掉头绕道进料口的大门，又有几辆阿拉伯人小车阻拦，无奈艾门拉走总包一部分人员，我们在枪声中赶往土木，接出他们那儿的五个女生；之后到一号地天津公司拉出总包林姐，门口一位保护工地的阿拉伯人不知我们身份，用冲锋枪朝我们轿车上方鸣空一枪，接着枪口指向车子风挡玻璃，我立即刹车，下车解释才获准进入。 下午我从云峰路口单独走路进去接出实验室孙主任两口子，路遇三辆面包车匪徒，被AK47指在胸口和背部盘问，后骗他们说我父亲在内，专门来接人，匪徒才稍稍通融。傍晚时分，艾门和弟弟胡赛因又开车，两次接出砖厂翻译马金苹两口子，总共十个人一起住到了艾门家。患难见真情，才松口小气，感谢艾门和他弟弟胡赛因。 今天在外面见到了班加西现状。满目疮痍，一片浓烟，残破不堪。为了接人，被AK47指了四次，手枪指了两次。终于狗屎运般地顺利返回。我的精神和意志在崩溃中成长着。Oh God! 傍晚时分，不放心搅拌站和砖厂的弟兄们，打电话给冯铸江询问情况，并提醒注意晚间可能会有飞机来班市轰炸。冯说已带领工人躲进砌筑好的楼梯里。害怕他们饮食后勤不足，想要外出给他们送些去，小冯说暂时还好，晚上就别来了。夜间持续宵禁，便没外出。 暴乱第六天。昨晚住在艾门家，本已心静，可午夜11时30分，听到大门口两声枪响，声音之大，瞬间惊醒。随后旁边他家别墅里传来小孩的啼哭声，大人的吵架声，接着又是四发AK47的连响，几秒后是来复枪的一声闷响，枪枪在门口响起。所有人的神经都绷到了最紧处。立即叫醒所有人，让
