After the tripartite joint exploratory team left Dongola, they went directly to Khartoum, the capital of Sudan.
Near Khartoum, there is an ancient city ruins with a history of one to two thousand years, which is one of the destinations of this joint exploration operation.
When the joint exploration convoy drove into the urban area of Khartoum, it immediately caused a sensation in the city.
Every street the convoy passed, people swarmed out, watching this huge convoy and talking about it.
"I didn't expect these Yankees and Israelis to come to Khartoum. Could it be that the legendary treasures of Solomon and the Ark of the Covenant are hidden near Khartoum? If this is the case, it would be great!"
"I don't know where the destination of these guys is, if we know, we can explore it first, maybe we will find something!
It is said that Steven is a super lucky guy, who can always create one miracle after another, and find one after another invaluable treasure.
Previously in Egypt and Dongola, he found several amazing treasures one after another! I hope it's the same this time. Let's follow him and maybe have a mouthful of soup! "
When people on the street were talking about it, Ye Tian and the others were looking at the dusty street scene outside through the car window.
Khartoum, the capital of Sudan and the largest city in Sudan, has a population of approximately 6 million.
Khartoum in ancient times was a desolate bush forest.
Around the beginning of the 13th century, the Mahas people from the Sudanese tribe migrated south across the desert.
Because the land is fertile and the water source is abundant, they settled here and named this place ‘Lortom’, which means ‘the confluence of river water and spring water’.
In the fifteenth century, Arabs began to move south in large numbers, Geltom became a transportation hub and a trade fair, and this small village was slowly transformed into a city.
After the Confluence of the Green and White Nile River in Khartoum, the image of the confluence from a distance is like an elephant’s trunk. Therefore, the Arabs renamed it as ‘Khartoum’, which means ‘elephant’s trunk’ in Arabic.
The most famous landscape of Khartoum is the confluence of the Qing Nile River.
The White Nile from Uganda and the Blue Nile from Ethiopia converge here, rushing north to Egypt, and finally into the Mediterranean.
Due to the difference in water regimes and geological structures in the upper reaches of the two rivers, one of the two rivers is blue and the other is white. When they merge, they are distinct and immutable. They run in parallel, like two jade belts.
Because it is located on the edge of the Sahara Desert, Khartoum has a hot and dry climate with an average temperature of nearly 30 degrees per year, making it known as the stove of the world.
From March to November each year, it is the hottest time.
During this period of time, as soon as people go out during the day, the hot heat waves hit their faces, as if they were walking into a sauna.
Even if I go out for a walk at ten o'clock in the evening, the ground still exudes heat, which is very difficult!
April and May are the seasons of sandstorms from the Sahara Desert.
The violent wind swept the sky and the dust was fierce and dazzled for several days. The yellow sand in the sky was pervasive. People in the house could feel the smell of earth and even sometimes they would be awake in their sleep.
In the rainy season in July and August, there will occasionally be a downpour.
After the heavy rain, the whole city without sewers will accumulate water everywhere, and it will turn into a "water town and country" again.
In winter, the heat is gone.
In Khartoum at this time, the air is fresh and the visibility is high, so you can take a deep breath with confidence.
Looking up at the sky at night, the stars and moon are clearly visible, as if close at hand.
The tripartite joint exploratory team arrived in Khartoum at the end of the rainy season.
There should have been a heavy rain here two days ago, although the water on the streets has evaporated because of the extremely hot weather.
However, the water stains on the buildings on both sides of the street, as well as the mud clogged up on the side of the road, are enough to explain what happened here.
Because of the belief in the Islamic religion, the buildings in Khartoum are basically the same as other Arab cities in North Africa that have passed through before, full of Iraqi style, and different from the buildings in the Arab region of West Asia.
Because it is the capital of Sudan, the infrastructure here is relatively better.
No matter the road or the building, the people standing on both sides of the street look a little more modern.
"Fortunately, we were here two days late. If we arrive in Khartoum a few days earlier, maybe we will be stuck here. Look at the water stains on the buildings on the roadside, this place is obviously just flooded!"
David pointed to the buildings on both sides of the street and said.
Ye Tian looked out, then gently shook his head.
"This situation is very common in Khartoum. Every year in July and August, the rainy season begins. From time to time, there will be a heavy rain here, turning the whole city into a country.
Fortunately, the Nile River passes through the city, and drainage is very convenient. In addition, the weather is very hot, and the stagnant water will quickly dissipate or be quickly evaporated.
In this environment, if Solomon’s treasure were hidden near Khartoum, it would have been washed away by heavy rains, or would have been flooded by the flooding Nile!
I have no hope for this trip to Khartoum. The possibility of the tripartite joint exploration team finding Solomon’s treasure and the Ark of the Covenant here is extremely low, close to zero! "
David nodded, and then asked:
"Steven, are you going to stay in Khartoum for a few days? After all, this is the capital of Sudan. It has a very long history, and there are several antique thrift markets. There are also many antique shops in the city. Are you planning to go shopping?"
Ye Tian shook his head and said with a smile:
"Forget it this time, let's talk about it later when I have a chance! Because of the series of discoveries in Egypt and the discoveries in Dongola, more and more people are staring at us, and we can even be said to be the target of criticism.
Among the people staring at us, there are many people who come for revenge, such as the Yemeni local militants who were killed in Aswan before. They are very convenient to come to Sudan. They cross the Red Sea, so they must be guarded!
The antique thrift markets and many antique shops in Khartoum can only be swept away in the future. Anyway, they won't fly with wings anymore. In a short while, we will come to this country and this city again.
This time, let’s take a look at the scenery at the confluence of the Green and White Nile. It is the most worth seeing scenery in this city. It must be very spectacular. "
While talking, the joint exploration team has arrived at the five-star hotel booked in advance.
At this time, the hotel had been heavily protected by heavily armed Sudanese military police, and there were many Israeli agents in plain clothes on the scene.
Obviously, the Sudanese learned the lessons of the Egyptians and did not want the tragedy of Aswan to happen again.
This is especially true for the Israelis. The **** fight that took place last time in Aswan has become a shame for Mossad and the 13th Commando. They will never allow such a thing to happen again!
As soon as the convoy stopped at the door of the hotel, the Israeli ambassador to Sudan, his entourage, and several Sudanese government officials greeted them from the hotel.
Among these people, there are a few Iraqi clergymen wearing Arab robes, which are very eye-catching.
After confirming the safety of the scene, Ye Tian and the others got off the car and landed at the entrance of the hotel.
Soon, Joshua and the Bishop of Kent walked over and joined Ye Tian and the others.
At the same time, the people who came out of the hotel have also come to the front.
After everyone met, it was natural to introduce each other and give a polite greeting.
When we all knew each other, the Israeli ambassador to Sudan said:
"Joshua, Steven, and Bishop of Kent, these Iraqi clergy have something to talk to you about. I didn't see them until here. Would you like to talk to them?"
Ye Tian looked at Joshua and the Bishop of Kent, and asked for their meaning with his eyes. Both of them nodded lightly.
Seeing this situation, Ye Tian nodded and said:
"Yes, since they are all here, we can't turn them away. It would be too rude. After all, this is a Sudan. It's someone's territory, and face is still to be given.
I'm also curious about what they want to talk about, and it doesn't hurt to listen! But if we want to talk, we have to wait for us to settle in the hotel room, wash up, and then talk to them! "
"Okay, Steven, I will tell them what you mean!"
The Israeli ambassador to Sudan nodded in response.
Afterwards, he walked to an official of the Sudanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs and relayed Ye Tian's meaning to the other party.
Next, the Sudanese Foreign Ministry official approached the senior Iraqi clergy and explained in a low voice.
In this way, after layers of translation and transmission, the two sides set the meeting time at four o'clock in the afternoon, in the meeting room of this hotel.
After finalizing the matter, the senior Iraqi priests left here.
Ye Tian and the others walked into the hotel door and formally checked into this hotel.
Many members of the tripartite joint exploration team unloaded everyone's luggage, various exploration equipment, weapons and ammunition, loaded them on luggage carts, and advanced the hotel.
Ten minutes later, Ye Tian took David and the others into a luxurious suite on the top floor of the hotel.
The first time he entered the room, Ye Tian first glanced at the situation in the room quickly, and then said to Matisse:
"Matis, you will search this room thoroughly to see if there are hidden surveillance probes and eavesdropping equipment. Be careful.
After Dungola’s discovery, I believe that the Sudanese government will attach great importance to our tripartite joint exploratory team, and may play some off-market tricks.
Except for this suite, every room our company employees and security team live in must be carefully checked, including the room of the Bishop of Kent.
As for the Israelis, don't worry, they must be more cautious than us, and they will definitely search every room thoroughly! "
Matisse smiled, then nodded in response:
"Okay, Steven, leave these things to us, and we will get them done soon!"
After speaking, he got busy with a few security team members, took out the detection equipment, and scanned every corner of the suite.
At the same time, in a room on the middle floor of the hotel.
Several Sudanese were standing in front of a row of computers, staring at the surveillance pictures on the computer screens dumbfounded.
What appeared on the main monitoring screen was the luxurious suite where Ye Tian lived.
On one of the computer screens, Ye Tian and David were sitting in the living room, talking, laughing and chatting, but they were talking about things of little value, such as the customs of Khartoum.
On another computer screen, Matisse gently unscrewed a socket on the wall and pulled out the pinhole camera hidden in the socket.
While pulling out the pinhole camera, this guy also smiled at the camera and waved his hand lightly, eyes full of disdain and sarcasm.
Following his actions, this sub-screen immediately went black.
The Sudanese who stayed in this room on the middle floor of the hotel were all red, their expressions were very embarrassing, and their teeth were itchy.
One of them, who was in his thirties, gritted his molars and said:
"Damn it! These Yankees are too difficult to deal with. They are so cautious and cunning that we have wasted a batch of advanced monitoring equipment."
When the voice fell, another younger intelligence officer continued to say:
"I've said long ago that monitoring the cunning gang of Stevens in this way is of no use and will not achieve any results, but will be self-defeating!
As far as I know, Steven’s bastard’s security personnel are all from the most elite special forces in the United States. They have extremely rich combat experience and none of them are good!
If they can't even handle surveillance, then it's no secret, let alone find so many famous treasures, those treasures might have been cut off by others long ago! "
Upon hearing this, other Sudanese intelligence personnel on the scene nodded and agreed.
The team leader in his 30s had a rather embarrassed expression, his face was blue and white.
While they were talking, two more pinhole cameras were found, and they were destroyed one after another.
The monitor screen connected to it also turns black.
In the following time, all the monitoring and monitoring equipment arranged in that luxurious suite were found one by one, and then all were dismantled!
The monitor screens on many computers in this room on the middle floor of the hotel turned black one by one.
In the earphones responsible for monitoring, the sound continued to disappear, leaving only a rustle.
In a short while, nearly one-third of the computers in this room were completely blacked out.
After more than ten or twenty minutes, the remaining two-thirds of the computer screens were also black, and the earphones responsible for monitoring were completely displayed.
All the monitoring and monitoring equipment arranged in the rooms of other members of the tripartite joint exploration team were also found, and they were taken down one by one, but none of them were lost!
Seeing this result, several Sudanese intelligence personnel staying in this room on the middle floor of the hotel felt very depressed, but helpless.
Just as they were packing their things in despair and preparing to evacuate from here, there was a knock on the door.
These guys suddenly became nervous and took out their pistols and pointed them at the door of the room.
However, the knock on the door only sounded twice, and there was no sound.
They asked loudly, who is outside the door? No one responded.
When they opened the door carefully, there was no one at the door. They only threw a black plastic bag on the ground with a note on it, written in Arabic.
"This is your thing, it belongs to the original owner!"
Seeing this note, several Sudanese intelligence personnel were suddenly surprised and very embarrassed.
They had thought in an instant that the black plastic bag contained the monitoring and monitoring equipment that everyone had worked so hard to arrange in the rooms upstairs.
Steven’s bastard's men not only found these monitoring and monitoring devices and removed them all, but also sent them back to humiliate everyone!
This is enough to show that the whereabouts of this group of people have fallen into the eyes of those guys, and there is no secret at all.
Thinking of this, the faces of several Sudanese intelligence personnel quickly turned red, and their expressions were extremely ugly.
Being slapped and humiliated like this is something no one can bear!
"boom!"
The leader of the Sudan kicked his foot on the door of the room, and cursed loudly in anger:
"These **** **** are so **** bullying, I'm never finished with them!"
Not only him, but the other intelligence personnel were also angry.
They smashed the wall or kicked the table, venting their anger.
However, they can only vent here, but they can do nothing about the guys upstairs.
