Ten minutes later, the tripartite joint exploration convoy drove out of Gondar city and drove straight to the north of Ethiopia along the simple road.
Because it was still early and Ethiopians had a relatively casual attitude towards life, many people had not gotten up yet, so there were not many pedestrians and vehicles on the road.
For the three-party joint exploration team, this is undoubtedly a good thing and can reduce a lot of trouble.
Not long after, the convoy drove into the mountains in northern Gondar.
There are fewer pedestrians and vehicles on the road, but the scenery outside is more and more beautiful, with rolling mountains and green grass.
In Gondar City and many other places, those who are closely following the tripartite joint exploration team have received the news.
In a hotel in Gondar, Cook was talking to his men on the phone.
"Boss, that **** Steven has left Gondar with a tripartite joint exploration team and set off for Axum, the holy city in Tigray. Should we continue to follow him or do something?"
An employee said via mobile phone, reporting the latest situation to Cook.
Hearing the news, Cook couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
After a while, he gritted his molars and said:
“Keep an eye on that **** Steven and the three-party joint exploration team. You don’t have to do anything for now, just keep an eye on them. Tigray is not Amhara.
The situation there is more complicated. Whether the three-party joint exploration team can successfully enter Tigray is a question. The next exploration operation will definitely be full of difficulties.
Axum is not Gondar either. If that **** Steven wants to lead a team to explore Solomon's treasure and the Ark of the Covenant in Axum, he will definitely encounter countless obstacles and even attacks.
Our primary target is the treasure left over from World War II hidden near Gondar, not the Treasure of Solomon and the Ark of the Covenant that may be hidden in Axum.
I have received the news, and I can probably determine the location of this treasure left over from World War II. I just don’t know the exact coordinates, but I can start taking action.
If we can't get this treasure left over from World War II, it won't be too late to go to Axum. I won't believe it, and I will never be able to defeat that **** Steven! ”
"Understood, boss, I will let people continue to keep an eye on the three-party joint exploration team and wait for your instructions"
The subordinate said and immediately ended the call.
The same scene happened in many places at the same time, with similar content.
At the same time, some guys who were closely following Ye Tian and the three-party joint exploration team also took action.
They poured into Tigray through various means, either by car or by plane, heading straight for the holy city of Aksum.
Among these people, there are not only professional treasure hunters, but also local militants, gangs, tribal armed forces, and many religious fanatics.
In the blink of an eye, it was already around twelve o'clock in the morning,
The convoy of the three-party joint exploration team entered a valley and was traveling through the valley.
On both sides of this valley are patches of dense forest, and the terrain is quite steep.
Soon after entering this valley, Ye Tian noticed that the atmosphere here seemed a little wrong, or a little nervous.
On this road along the valley, there are only the tripartite joint exploration convoy and numerous escorted Ethiopian military and police vehicles. There are no other social vehicles, and not a single person can be seen.
What's more important is that in the forests on both sides of the valley, animals are rarely seen, and the silence is a bit eerie.
But in the sky above the forest, a group of birds were hovering, refusing to land in the forest no matter what.
Seeing this scene, Ye Tian immediately picked up the walkie-talkie and said to his security personnel:
"Guys, please be vigilant and prepare for battle. The situation in this valley is a bit wrong. Someone may be ambushing here and trying to attack the tripartite joint exploration convoy.
If there is an attack later, the first thing everyone should do is to protect the safety of the company's employees, protect their own safety, wait for my order, and wait for an opportunity to rush out of this narrow valley."
As soon as he finished speaking, the responses of many security personnel came from the intercom.
"Copy that, Steven, we know what to do!"
Immediately afterwards, Ye Tian said to Seaman through the intercom:
"Seaman, the situation in this valley is not right. Someone may ambush the three-party joint exploration convoy here. You must be vigilant and ready to fight at any time.
This valley is the only way to go from Gondar to Axum. It is not surprising that we encountered an ambush here, and the terrain here is also conducive to an ambush.
If the tripartite joint exploration convoy is really attacked, I suggest that the convoy not stay here for a long time, break away from all obstacles and rush out of the valley directly, that is safer."
"Understood, Steven, leave these matters to us. We must protect the tripartite joint exploration team. I will contact the Ethiopian military and police immediately to ask them to be more vigilant!"
Seaman responded in a deep voice and acted quickly.
Soon, two small drones were released by the Israelis and flew quickly over the mountains and forests on both sides of the road, trying to explore the situation in the forest.
At the same time, everyone in the tripartite joint exploration team quickly put on body armor and prepared for emergencies.
The convoy was still moving forward, but due to the poor road conditions, the speed could not be increased.
While driving, the Ethiopian military police vehicle driving in front of the convoy suddenly issued a parking warning and quickly stopped.
The tripartite joint exploration convoy and other Ethiopian military and police vehicles that followed had to brake and stopped on this road.
As soon as the motorcade stopped, Ye Tian picked up the walkie-talkie and asked:
"What happened ahead? Himan, why did the Ethiopian military and police suddenly stop?"
The next moment, Heman's slightly frustrated voice came from the walkie-talkie.
"Damn it! Steven, on the road not far ahead, there are people worshiping in the middle of the road. They are several Orthodox believers in their sixties, wearing white robes.
They laid a carpet in the middle of the road and several people were worshiping. It was obvious that the purpose of these Orthodox believers was to prevent the tripartite joint exploration team from going to Aksum!
Behind them, there was a cross, and someone was carrying a camera to film. Maybe they were doing a live TV or online broadcast, so they must have come prepared! ”
Hearing that this was the case, Ye Tian's expression immediately changed and he also had a headache.
After thinking for a moment, he said through the intercom:
"Himan, try to figure out the origins of those people first, and determine whether they are fanatical believers from Tigray or fanatical Orthodox believers from other parts of Ethiopia.
If it is a fanatical believer from Tigray state, then let representatives of the Tigray state government and the TPLF come forward to solve this trouble and see if they can get those guys to leave.
If they are Orthodox believers from other parts of Ethiopia, then representatives of the Ethiopian government, religious circles, and military representatives can only be allowed to negotiate.
In any case, the tripartite joint exploration team cannot directly resolve this matter. In that case, if a conflict occurs, we will not be able to enter Tigray and Axum.
Those fanatical Orthodox believers in Axum will definitely come like a tide and completely drown us! If I guessed correctly, those guys are waiting for us to send someone to come forward!
During the negotiation process, everyone must be more vigilant to prevent attacks from the mountains and forests on both sides. To be honest, this is the first time I have seen such a situation, and it is a bit troublesome."
"Understood, Steven, we will contact the Ethiopians and ask them to send someone to solve this problem"
Seaman responded and immediately ended the call.
"I'll go! We won't run into Ethiopian religious extremists, right? If that's the case, we'll be in trouble!"
David exclaimed, his eyes full of worry.
Hearing this, Ye Tian nodded immediately.
"I'm afraid that's the case. The other party may really be an extremist of the Ethiopian Orthodox Church. Such people are not uncommon in Ethiopia.
When we enter Axum, we will encounter more fanatical Orthodox believers, and troubles like today are likely to continue to occur."
While they were discussing, the Ethiopian military police protecting the tripartite joint exploration team had sent a vehicle forward to negotiate with the Orthodox believers who were blocking the road.
Soon, the military and police vehicle approached the other party and stopped in front of the carpet in the middle of the road.
Subsequently, two Ethiopian police officers and a government representative got out of the police car, walked towards the elderly Orthodox believers, and began to negotiate with them.
After a few words of exchange, the government representative and the policeman retreated and returned to the car.
Immediately afterwards, the police car drove towards the convoy.
A moment later, Seaman's voice came through the walkie-talkie again.
"Steven, the Orthodox believers blocking the road ahead are not from Tigray and Aksum, but from other parts of Ethiopia.
Their purpose is very simple, which is to prevent us from going to the holy city of Axum. They claim that the Ark of the Covenant is enshrined in the St. Mary's Church in Axum.
It is completely unnecessary for the tripartite joint exploration team to go to Aksum, and there is no way they can gain anything, so I hope we can go back and leave Ethiopia! ”
After hearing the announcement, Ye Tian pondered for a moment, and then said through the intercom:
“Since they are Orthodox believers from other parts of Ethiopia, let representatives of the Ethiopian government and religious circles come forward to see if they can be persuaded to leave.
Dealing with these religious fanatics cannot be the same as dealing with militants and robbers. It is best to find ways to persuade them and avoid violent conflicts as much as possible."
"Understood, Steven, the next step depends on the ability of the Ethiopian government and religious representatives"
Seaman responded.
Soon, under the **** of these heavily armed military police, representatives of the Ethiopian government and religious circles drove out of the convoy and drove straight to the place of worship ahead.
At the same time, Ye Tian also received the news.
There are indeed many people hidden in the forests on both sides of the valley.
Among these people, there were both armed men with guns and many Orthodox believers in robes.
They were hiding in the forest, keeping an eye on the movement on the highway, ready to rush out of the forest at any time to support the Orthodox believers on the highway and besiege the three-party joint exploration convoy.
Hearing the news, Ye Tian couldn't help having another headache.
Issues involving religion are always the most sensitive and difficult to resolve.
If you are not careful, you may cause huge trouble.
When he was in the Arabian Peninsula and North Africa, Ye Tian had always been worried that it would attract siege from Yisilan extremists.
Fortunately, such a thing did not happen!
Or maybe it only happened once, that **** battle in Aswan!
But who would have imagined that when they arrived in Ethiopia in East Africa, the tripartite joint exploration team would be blocked by a group of fanatical Orthodox believers.
After representatives of the Ethiopian government and religious circles arrived at the front, they immediately started negotiations with the other party.
Looking from afar, the negotiations did not seem to be going smoothly.
After talking for a while, the two sides started to quarrel, and the sound was very loud.
Especially the Ethiopian Orthodox believers in their sixties seemed to be very excited and their faces were red.
Seeing this scene, David couldn't help but asked worriedly:
"Steven, what if the negotiations fail and the three-party joint exploration team cannot pass through this valley smoothly? Should we go to Axum? Is this the end of the three-party joint exploration operation?"
Ye Tian turned to look at him, smiled and said:
“Don’t worry, we have come this far, and we have discovered part of Solomon’s Treasure in Gondar, thus confirming that Menelik I did bring Solomon’s Treasure to Ethiopia.
Under such circumstances, how could Israel and the Vatican watch this tripartite joint exploration operation come to an end? They will definitely do their best to continue the operation at any cost.
If we cannot pass through this valley smoothly, we can only go back along the original road and take other roads to Axum. If the land route is not possible, then fly to Axum, which is not difficult at all."
Hearing this, David was not only silent.
He thought for a moment, then nodded and said:
"Indeed, the discovery of Solomon's treasures hidden deep underground in the Noah's Ark church, especially the discovery of the golden statues of the three kings of Israel, has completely ignited the enthusiasm of the Israelis.
This is probably the closest chance the displaced Jews have had to finding Solomon's treasures and the Ark of the Covenant in more than two thousand years. Naturally, they will not give up, even if they pay a huge price for it."
As he was speaking, representatives of the Ethiopian government and religious circles who had come forward to negotiate had retreated and returned without success!
For a while, the situation fell into a stalemate.
Those Ethiopian Orthodox believers blocking the highway showed no intention of backing down.
The militants and Orthodox believers hiding in the forests on both sides of the road did not launch an attack immediately.
The three-party joint exploration team cannot force their way through, as that will inevitably intensify conflicts and be detrimental to the development of subsequent exploration operations.
Faced with this situation, everyone has a headache and can't think of a good solution.
Soon, Ye Tian's cell phone rang.
It was Joshua calling.
When the call was connected, Joshua got straight to the point.
"Steven, do you have any good suggestions on how to deal with this situation? I hope we can break this deadlock!"
After thinking for a while, Ye Tian said:
“I do have some ideas, but I’m not sure whether they will work. You can investigate the identities of the Orthodox believers blocking the road and see which organization they come from or who is behind them.
You can start from their organization or the people behind them, give the other party certain benefits and promises, use reason and induce them to gain benefits, you may be able to break the deadlock in front of you, but you have to act quickly!
We can't continue the stalemate here, it's too dangerous. If not, just go back along the original road and take other routes to Axum. All roads lead to Rome. There is no need for us to fight here! ”
"Understood, Steven, we will contact the organizations behind these Orthodox believers or the people hiding behind them as soon as possible, hoping to resolve this matter smoothly"
Joshua responded.
After chatting for a few more words, they ended the call.
Soon, representatives of the Ethiopian government and religious circles came forward again to negotiate with the fanatical religious believers at the front.
The difference is that Israel and the Vatican also sent people to come forward this time.
