Chris asked Eric, "Don't you have a unified language here?"
Eric shook his head: "The unified language should be Arabic, but the composition of our opposition soldiers is more complicated, so many of us don't speak Arabic."
"Some of these people have lived in other countries since they were young, and some have lived in former colonial areas. so they are English or French, so the language between them is not completely smooth."
"Like myself, I actually went to the United States with my parents when I was very young, and I took a green card and served in the U.S. Army for 3 years. Only several years ago I responded to the call and came back to join the Freedom Army. So my basic Arabic It's very poor, and basically, I only communicate in English."
Chris nodded. This multilingual situation is just like India. A considerable number of Indians do not speak Hindi. Even each state in India has its own official language, plus it was once a British colony. So English is also 1 of the official languages.
However, this kind of language confusion is relatively friendly to him. The more confused the language landscape, the easier it is for him to mix in.
So he said to Eric: "After you go in, remember to act by chance and don't let people see the clues."
Eric hurriedly said, "Please rest assured, I will give my all!"
Chris gave a hum, pointed to the courtyard gate, and said, "Go in!"
"OK!"
Eric stepped forward and pushed open the courtyard door.
In the yard at this time, more than a dozen soldiers carrying AK47s were grilling around a campfire to warm up. On the campfire, 2 legs of lamb were worn with wooden sticks. At this time, they were already roasted with oil and smelled really delicious.
Chris followed Eric in, and 1 of the soldiers recognized Eric and blurted out, "Captain Eric, would you like to have some barbecue? 's mother also made some pita bread, and it'll be ready soon."
Eric waved his hand: "I won't eat anymore, I'm here to see the hostage situation."
As soon as the man heard this, he immediately said with a grin: "Captain Eric, are you interested in those women? But I have to make it clear to you that the commander has given the order without his permission. no one can fool around!"
Eric said immediately: "Don't talk nonsense! I just come to see the situation, go back to report to the commander, and open the cellar entrance quickly!"
The man nodded hurriedly, turned to greet a soldier, and together? Bend over and opened a thick wooden board from the ground. Then, a staircase made of loess appeared under the wooden board, and the man respectfully treated Eric. Said: "Captain, please come in!"
Eric nodded in satisfaction, and led Chris to the entrance. The man took out a flashlight. After turning it on, Eric said graciously: "Captain, the stairs are not lighted and are dark. I will be in front leading the way, watch your steps!"
Eric glanced at Chris, and when he saw Chris nodding to him quietly, he agreed and said, "Okay, you can lead the way!"
