NO.15 An international news

Zhang Ben stroked the horse's head, the panda ate the carrot very happily, grabbed a handful of refined beans, crunched in Zhang Ben's palm, and moved his nostrils, which was very interesting.

He took out another bottle of water from the pocket he had brought and fed it to the panda.

This water is the freshly packed fountain of life when it comes, from the outside, it is just a very ordinary bottle of lemonade, Zhang Ben guessed that the air here is turbid, but he didn't expect it to be so bad, and he thought that it would be relieved when he arrived in Bangkok Bay in a few days.

In any case, a bottle of Fountain of Life can at least relieve the fatigue of the panda.

Seeing that the horses around him were tired a lot, Zhang Ben felt that this kind of riding battle was too nonsense.

"It'sβ€”it just wanted to bite me?"

Helen covered her mouth in surprise and widened her blue eyes.

"Ah, it's so temperamental, whoever laughs at it and laughs at it, it bites."

patted the panda's head, it eats happily, good horses rely on raising, these days, only eat oats and soybeans, which makes the panda feel a little uncomfortable, it prefers the essence of the galloping century.

Of course, Zhang Ben is too lazy to care about its emotions, it likes to eat or not.

"Okay Panda, it's the first time she's seen you, don't lose your temper." Patting the big horse, Zhang Ben handed a carrot to Helen, "Feed it and try it, so that it will be friendly to you." ”

Helen pinched a carrot, and the man stood far away, his hand slowly reaching over, as if a panda would bite at any moment. Da Ma glanced at her with disdain, took the carrot in his mouth, calmly crunched and ate it cleanly, then stretched out his tongue and licked Zhang Ben's arm, still unfinished.

I touched its head, took out a brush and brushed it, and said, "No, when we get to the shore, I'll feed you well!" ”

After brushing hard twice on the stomach, the panda screamed twice, apparently scratching the benefit, which was exactly what it was uncomfortable with.

The snort, the tail flicking, and the tall horse's head looking down on Helen gave Helen a feeling of contempt, and then she looked at the big horse carefully, and then came to a definite conclusion: it was despising itself.

But, but this is a horse, huh?

Helen was puzzled.

Zhang Ben smiled: "Pandas have a relatively high IQ, and they can tell from people's expressions and tones whether you are friendly or hostile to it. And it only likes to hear compliments, and any bad comments about it will make it unhappy. ”

"What a proud horse." Helen said softly.

Whoops!

The panda snorted and looked proud.

Whenever it is proud, it will always snort and tilt its head to the side, and then look at people with one eye, which really wants to slap it twice.

After brushing the other side again, Zhang Bencai patted the panda's head again and said, "Stay well, don't make any more trouble for me, I have to go." ”

The panda snorted, as if reminiscing about the carrot just now, Zhang Ben pouted and shook his head, and led Helen out of the strange-smelling livestock cabin.

Returning to the Daphne cruise ship from the Endeavour supply ship, Federo and Huang Shilang were playing cards in the casino, several bigwigs were either chewing cigars in their mouths, or holding pipes in their hands, or a cocktail in front of the table, the atmosphere was very strong, and there were many people watching.

It's blackjack.

Huang Shilang has good luck, he has already taken three Black Jacks today, and there are already a lot of 50,000 blue chips in front of the table. Holding a $1,000 red chip in his hand, he threw it into the waiter's tray, making the handsome waiter smile and express his gratitude.

Zhang Ben took Helen around, played Laba in front of a gambling machine, and after a while, Ivan the polar bear also came over and chatted with Zhang Ben, talked about fighting at night for a while, and discussed with each other, Ivan said with admiration: "Zhang, you are very strong, and you are very young, your future achievements are unimaginable." I've only met three people like you in the Siberian training camp, but one of them died, the other went to Africa, and one is serving in the United States. ”

"We haven't fought, it doesn't count." Zhang Ben said indifferently, his hand pulled the joystick again, and the three bells rattled, "Huh? Hit? ”

After a while, a pile of coins emerged from the laba, Helen screamed with joy, and the people around him applauded and congratulated, and generally speaking, if you can win a slightly bigger prize, others will express encouragement, for a little luck.

"It would be nice if it was three sevens." Zhang Ben said regretfully.

The corners of Ivan's mouth twitched, and he said in his heart: You really dare to say it.

"Ivan."

"Huh?" Ivan was working on a gambling machine next to him.

"Are you interested in going to China? I mean...... To play, or to live? Zhang Ben stared at the screen, where Helen was playing.

Ivan was stunned for a moment: "I was born in Siberia, and I am more familiar with West Asia and the Middle East, and other places ......."

"You're not really fit here." Zhang Ben suddenly said, "You are enduring pain. ”

Ivan was stunned, "My injury is two months at most, and it's almost fine......"

"I actually saw you looking at the picture in the cubicle, and you seem to have dropped it." Zhang Ben took out a photo from his pocket and handed it back to Ivan, "When I ate grilled oysters in the morning." ”

When Zhang Ben wanted to return it to Ivan, he had already eaten and went to stay with Kirilenko, so Zhang Ben went to feed the horses on the Endeavour.

"Thanks, I was actually looking for it just now." Ivan looked moved, "It's silly to have a photo, it's like a Hollywood hot-blooded commercial movie, a big guy, a veteran, holding a photo of his daughter, and then staring at it all day, but never thinking about looking for her." ”

"What's her name?" Zhang Ben took the plate handed by a waiter, put the stack of ten coins in the groove, and then lowered his head and asked.

"Katyusha. I like the name of this rocket, it sounds like it's going to live healthy. Ivan said with a sudden smile.

Kirilenko, who was observing this, was sitting on the clap table and drank a sip of vodka, and when he saw Ivan, he smiled and immediately spurted out.

"Hey!" A young rich man looked at Kirilenko with wide eyes and unpleasantness, and cursed in his heart: This damn Georgian fat pig!

"Ahem, ahem, hug, sorry......"

Kirilenko's eyes almost exploded, what did he just see? Ivan the polar bear smiled?

Zhang Ben filled a tray, and Ivan also squatted down to help, and then asked casually: "My story is told, what about you?" ”

Zhang Ben paused, sighed, and said, "Actually, I don't know why I came here." Although I kept telling myself that I had come here to repay someone's kindness, and even thought that maybe I had fallen in love with that girl, I didn't feel a wave of joy when that woman threw herself into my arms......

"The summons of the wild surname?" Ivan filled a tray, raised his eyebrows and asked after putting it away, seeing Zhang Ben's surprised expression, Ivan smiled again: "I was also young." Passionate memories are always beautiful and passionate. ”

Zhang Ben nodded and admitted: "Yes, what you said is very right, I just came here to become stronger, in fact, I have always been unwilling to live that damn peaceful life, and I have always wanted to find an excuse to break the peace, so I came here." ”

"The opportunity is fleeting, and if you miss it, you miss it." Ivan sighed and said, then suddenly patted Zhang Ben's shoulder and said in a friend-like tone: "However, Zhang, I don't recommend that you go down this crazy road, there are countless people on this planet who have thought like this, but none of them have succeeded." When you go back, go find the woman who fell into your arms, and find her to have a baby, so better. ”

Zhang Ben smiled: "That's a very crazy woman." ”

Ivan pursed his mouth, nodded, and admired: "At least that kind of woman loves you until the end of the world, that's a certainty." ”

"You also have a woman who loves until the end of the world?" Zhang Ben asked with a smile.

"How could there be my lovely Katyusha?" Ivan shook the photo, which showed a little girl holding a bouquet of flowers and grinning happily at the camera.

"I hope she grows up healthy." Zhang Ben sincerely wished.

Ivan nodded: "Maybe the next time I go back to Moscow, she will almost not recognize me as a father." Coming home with so many scars every time. ”

Zhang Ben laughed, and after loading the plates of coins, the two stood up, and Helen pulled it several times in a row, but nothing hit.

The two super strong men here dominated Laba, and no one dared to come over to make trouble, and it was quite cold here for a while.

"When I get back, I'll go to Moscow, but it's winter, and it's minus twenty or thirty degrees, and everyone will freeze into popsicles." Zhang Ben said with a smile.

"No matter how cold it is, that's home." Ivan was quite emotional.

"Didn't you say you were born in Siberia?" Zhang Ben asked.

"That's just hometown. Where there's family, that's home, isn't it? ”

Ivan said with a smile.

"When you don't do it, you can actually become a philosopher." Zhang Ben suggested.

"Battlefield philosophy, killing philosophy? I'm going to be hunted down by Christians. Ivan licked his lips, and then said to Zhang Ben: "I will definitely take Katyusha to China to find you, and it is fortunate that he did not die in your hands." ”

"Should we be glad that too?"

"To live is to be thankful that your good luck has not run out." Ivan laughed.

The two talked very happily, but it surprised many people, but unfortunately there are too few people who know Russian, and the two Brabra talked a lot, no one knew what they were talking about, but they saw that the two killing machines were about to hook up and back, which made people who didn't know it creepy.

At this time, on the big screen, satellite television was broadcasting a news, and the news host of the US national television station was saying solemnly in American English: "In the southeast of Afghanistan, the advance team of the US military was attacked by an unknown Afghan militant, and in this attack, at least two US soldiers were killed, and now the picture is sent back from the front line......

The two military Humvees are burning, gray and black, while the ground is littered with wreckage, and most importantly, it looks like it is not as simple as the death of two American soldiers.

"Damn the Yankees. Where the Soviets didn't hold out, they immediately fell in, it's stupid to be okay. Ivan pouted and said, then looking at the little information on the screen, Ivan was stunned and said: "This seems to be the result of the explosion of the rocket grenade launcher after being fired head-on." ”

β€œrpgοΌŸβ€ Zhang Ben asked.

Ivan nodded, "It's not that simple, although there are only two military Humvees on the screen, but in the corner of the picture, I see armored personnel carriers." ”

"What's wrong?" Zhang Ben asked strangely.

"It should have been attacked as well." Ivan said firmly.

"What do you want to say?" Zhang Ben asked.

"It's not something that can be done with old-fashioned RPGs, the R-7 is more than forty years old, and the Afghan region gets those dumb shots at a high rate, and these are the results of more advanced RPGs. Moreover, this is an American squad, and its combat effectiveness is not too bad, with at least twenty troops in two squads. It's not that easy to attack, and it's dead. These Afghans are not as smart and bold as they might think, preferring to rely on familiar terrain to win. ”

Ivan is familiar with these.

Zhang Ben wondered, what does this matter to him?

Ivan shrugged: "But it doesn't matter, it has nothing to do with me, it's all Americans who die anyway." ”

Rewind the clock to fourteen hours ago.

In the southeast of the town of Shahrmon in eastern Afghanistan, near the border with Pakistan, a group of militants dressed in dark clothes laid an ambush on a small mountain road.

It was the only way for the U.S. forces to occupy Shahrmon, where there was a stronghold and seemed to be intended to be expanded into a small supply depot.

Helicopters and reconnaissance planes have swept over this day, indicating that this is a safe area.

But the devil knew that someone would have traveled 60 kilometers to this place and carried an unmarked rocket-propelled grenade launcher.

"These Yankees are shouting at us."

Zhang Yaozu smiled, his eyes were shining, the weather was very cold, the sky was full of dark clouds, it seemed like it was going to snow, such a cold day, I am afraid that even the people in the US military command would not think that these poor Afghans would come to trouble them.

The daring Yankee is targeted by a shameless bastard.

Waiting for the advance team of the US military with these two squads of troops was a bunch of rockets.

After Timur, the young man, was slapped twice by Zhang Yaozu, he also trembled with this thing.

Of course, things can get crazy, especially after the poor acid crippled the American armored personnel carriers.

Sheep...... Led by a vicious dog, even in the face of wolves, he will be hungry and arch.
