Chapter 148: Post-traumatic sequelae of war

Libya has a special terrain, basically all its territory is desert, and most of the big cities are on the coast of the Mediterranean. Such terrain determines that Libya's most important highways are driven along the coastline.

Gao Yang’s itinerary is much easier than Gao Yang imagined. They don’t have to take the road where there are checkpoints along the route, but run wildly in the desert, without entering the city they pass by. With GPS guidance, even if they leave the road, they don’t have to worry about getting lost.

It turned out that when Gao Yang entered and left Libya, he used defense companies that provided transportation services to mercenaries. In the recent times, he was through Uriyangko's channels. However, this time Gao Yang and his friends brought a lot of cash, and the most important thing was that there were two boxes of gold. The few golden spears obtained from the Gaddafi Palace were also too eye-catching, so Gao Yang did not intend to leave Libya through unreliable channels from the beginning.

NATO countries have been continuously providing weapons and equipment to the Libyan opposition, and Morgan has many transported equipment to several factions he supports. Morgan naturally has his own channels. As Morgan's contact person in Libya, Abdul was simply the person in charge of this channel before he was arrested.

After contacting Morgan, Abdul just asked about the situation a little and guided Gao Yang and the others to arrive in Tunisia very safely.

The only regret is that when passing through the checkpoint on the border between Tunisia and Libya, Gao Yang and his team stayed in Libya. They transferred everything safely to a bus. The reason for this was that the bus could cross the border without checking, but Gao Yang and the others didn't feel much of a pity. They just had two cars. With their current wealth, they wouldn't care if they bought a dozen or twenty new cars.

When he got on the bus, it was already dawn the next day. Gao Yang hadn't closed his eyes for a long time, but he still endured his sleepiness and refused to sleep because he was guarding a lot of money and gold. He could not fall asleep before he was completely safe.

Gao Yang originally planned to take turns to sleep, and at least two people could stay awake, but except for Choi Bo who could sleep soundly, no one else could sleep. Although they knew that the person Morgan sent to pick them up should be reliable, they still couldn't sleep well.

In order to relieve the sleepiness, the few people in the car were chatting without saying anything, from reviewing the war in Libya to looking forward to how to spend money, they said everything they could, but Fry kept holding his submachine gun and sat alone in the back in a daze.

Seeing Fry sitting in a daze, looking worried, Gao Yang couldn't help but worry about Fry. He touched Grolev's arm and whispered: "Fry has been like this for a long time, he won't have anything to do, right?"

Grolev glanced at Fry, shrugged, "It's his first time on the battlefield, and it may take some time to digest his experience, what else can there be."

Gao Yang frowned and said, "You are a veteran and you have a lot of experience. Do you think he has suffered from the trauma of war? Will he not be able to return to a normal life?"

Grolev looked at Gao Yang strangely and said, "What are you kidding? You can't return to your normal life after fighting a war? Where did you hear nonsense? I have been fighting for almost twenty years. Am I not a normal person when I didn't fight?"

Gao Yang frowned and said, "I have read many novels, movies, etc. It says that many veterans who have participated in the war cannot adapt to the life of normal people. People who suffer from the sequelae of war trauma will even unconsciously hurt the people they are closest to. This is terrible."

Grolev smiled disdainfully and said, "You have also experienced many battles. How do you feel about yourself?"

Gao Yang thought carefully and said, "I only feel relaxed when I leave the battlefield, I just want to enjoy a peaceful time. Although I may occasionally think of the scenes during combat in the first two days, most of the time, I can't remember the scenes during combat at all."

Grolev spread his hands and curled his lips, "Isn't that enough? If you fight a war, you will get some bullshit sequelae of war trauma. Then there are too many madmen in this world? Think about it, in World War I, there were tens of millions of soldiers participating in the war. After so many soldiers retired, did they all become madmen who killed everyone when they meet? In World War II, in the tens of millions of soldiers participating in the war, can't they go home and live a normal life after the war ends? Well, the cruelest battle I have ever experienced was the first Grozny Battle. We were like hell, but my comrades were living well after retirement. I haven't heard of anyone killing his wife or mother. Finally, look at me, am I like a madman? Haha, come on, I might be a little uncomfortable in the first two days, but believe me, at most ten days and half a month, no one will think of war."

Gao Yang had to admit that what Grolev said was very reasonable. Maybe what he said was a bit exaggerated, but there were too many soldiers who had experienced the war and were much crueler than their low-intensity and low-intensity battles. However, there are still very few people who cannot return to their normal life because of the trauma of the war.

Li Jinfang also nodded repeatedly and said, "The Russians are right. There are definitely some sequelae of war trauma. Basically, everyone will be more or less affected by the war. However, most people will be fine after a while. If they go home, they always think that they are still fighting on the battlefield and cannot live a normal life. To put it bluntly, it is because of their poor psychological quality."

Grolev nodded repeatedly and said, "That's right, that's it. I finally returned home and didn't live a good life with my wife and children. I always thought about the little things on the battlefield. Don't be fooled by Hollywood movies. There are many people like Rambo who have experienced the scenes of corpses and blood. If I get home, I will become a murderous lunatic. Then the country might as well imprison all of these people in a madhouse."

Gao Yang turned his head and looked at Fry, but he still couldn't let it go, saying, "That's right, but maybe Fry is one of these few people. You see him as if he was stupid. Fry can annoy people in normal times, but now he has become like this. Don't you think it's a bit abnormal?"

Abdul, who had been listening to Gao Yang and the others, smiled and said, "The bastards in Hollywood like to exaggerate, especially for the Vietnam War. They portrayed a very small group as if all the American soldiers who participated in the Vietnam War were fragile glass dolls. Don't worry, this is just a filmmaker expressing their tendency to rule. Have you ever seen movies that praise the Vietnam War? Well, if you are still worried about Fry, why not ask him and let him say it yourself."

Gao Yang immediately turned his head and shouted to Fry: "Fry, what are you thinking?"

Fry looked at Gao Yang with a confused look and said, "Ah, my performance is too bad this time. I can't do anything. I'm thinking about how to become more powerful. I want to be as powerful as you! Next time I fight again, I hope I can kill our enemies hard. Okay,
