Chapter 48: Battlefield Negotiations

Captain, just now two snipers from the SAS British Special Air Service Regiment told us: There is a big possibility that we have entered the 'free kill zone' that they have demarcated in advance! ”

Hearing the term "free kill zone", Fengyinglou's expression couldn't help but move slightly.

Li Fan, who was following Fengyinglou, continued to report: "Now almost all the outside media have announced to the world that the fighting of al-Qaeda soldiers in the mountainous area of Tora Bora is from 9 o'clock in the morning to 5 o'clock in the afternoon, but the US Delta Special Forces, the British SAS Special Air Service Regiment, and the Green Forest Special Forces are still in this mountainous area, and some areas are divided into 'free kill zones', and if there are people operating in this area at night, they can be killed. We have seen this tactic so effective that every morning the anti-Taliban coalition goes to those areas to pick up the bodies and transport them by truck to Jalalabad for identification. ”

Feng Yinglou was listening carefully, he knew that with Li Fan's character, it would never be possible to suddenly talk to him about some meaningless gossip information at such a time.

"In order to hunt down **, the US government on the one hand offered a sky-high price of 25c00000 US dollars to reward heroes who can catch or kill ** on the spot, on the other hand, after occupying the capital of Afghanistan, it changed the army's strategic infantry program, which greatly delayed and hindered the special forces. Otherwise, in my opinion, ** should have been killed by American special forces before retreating into the mountains of Tora Bora! ”

Hearing this, Fengyinglou raised his eyebrows slightly, and asked in a low voice, "Why?" ”

"Bureaucracy exists in China, exists in the United States, and will never be inferior to China!" When Li Fan said this, even he, a student who had already bloomed in the field of strategy and had bloomed with amazing talents, couldn't help but show a trace of disdain on his face: "In the US Army Special Forces, there have long been complaints about some of the practices of the command. Some of them even declared in public that what those operational staff officers of the Central Command were most afraid of was to let an ordinary special forces soldier take over and kill **, thus obliterating the honor of these high-ranking officers. Those who sit in their offices thousands of miles away prefer to achieve their tasks through 'team effort'. That is to say, the trinity of the navy, the army and the air force to act together to eliminate the ** is the effect they are pursuing, and once they succeed, the supreme commanders of these three troops, including their combat staff officers under remote command, must have a share in everyone and have merit! ”

Some people may think that at a time when the United States has just suffered the pain of 9111, it is a fantasy to tie its hands for the sake of the size of the merit. But in fact, this kind of thing has long been common within the United States. Looking at the actions of the US special forces over the years, I don't know how many times they have missed a good opportunity because the command has this kind of thinking. For example, as early as 1979, the US Delta Special Forces failed to rescue hostages in Iran, and the biggest culprit was their headquarters!

"At the beginning, the U.S. special forces, with the judgment of the captain without receiving instructions from their superiors, conducted unlimited special operations, and it was because of this strategy that they fought smoothly in the early stage, and it took less than a month to enter Kabul, the capital of Afghanistan. But now, whether it is the American special forces or the British special forces, if they want to act on any target at night, they must report it layer by layer, and they will never be allowed to act independently without the approval of the headquarters. ”

Kazekage understood, "You mean that even if those two snipers from the British SAS Special Air Service Regiment showed up with us, it was only because we entered the 'Free Kill Zone', and after we left that area, the possibility of them reporting to the headquarters, dispatching special forces, and chasing us at night is almost zero?" ”

"That's right!" Fan looked back at those who were used by Yang Liang with a grenade. It blew up chickens and dogs and jumped into a mess against the Taliban coalition troops. "The Anglo-American coalition is in this mountainous area. My favorite use of land is the 'sheep herding' tactic. First, a group of local indigenous people formed a local armed force. Charge ahead. Force enemies out of hiding spots. They ducked to the side and attacked. Naturally, this can be done on the premise of ensuring zero casualties. Quite impressive results. Combined with the ground tactics they like to use. In addition, the headquarters set various restrictions on them. I can conclude. In our neighborhood. Only the motley army of the anti-Taliban coalition was left behind. ”

Feng Yinglou's eyes lit slightly: "Want to ambush them?" ”

"Nope. They're just a ragtag army. But they were numerous and well equipped. We can even win. Nor can it go unharmed. The result is definitely not worth the cost. ”

Li Fan at this time. It's really amazing. "I just wanted to ask the captain to approve me. Go negotiate with them. ”

Faced with this absolutely unexpected answer. Feng Yinglou suddenly asked, "Regarding the US Central Command's ground combat policy." And they complained in the army. This information. Where did you get the land? ”

Li Fan replied very frankly: "Buy land!" It's not just about buying land. We've been doing it for more than two months. Eat and drink the land. Including a part of weapons and ammunition. They all buy land directly from the locals. ”

Li Fan took out an iron box from the pocket of his military uniform and handed him to Fengyinglou. When Fengying Lou subconsciously opened the tin box, he saw a stack of U.S. bills with the largest denomination in this small tin box.

Inside the box, there are two gold bars fixed to the grooves of styrofoam, plus a diamond that is the best choice in terms of color and texture.

Diamonds, gold, and the US dollar, in such a small tin box, actually placed the world's most widely circulated and most attractive to human beings of the three universal "currencies". Even if Feng Yinglou couldn't estimate the value of the things in such a box for a while, he also understood that mastering these resources was enough to do a lot of things that seemed incredible in a normal society in Afghanistan, which was originally plagued by poverty and constant wars for many years.

"This is the first time we have personally received the 'special equipment' when we follow Instructor Xue Ningbo into Afghanistan, if we suddenly encounter the enemy army in Afghanistan, once we are broken up by the enemy and lose contact with the team, we must find our own way to buy the relationship line in the hands of the locals and return to China.

When Instructor Xue Ningbo returned to the school and returned to Li Xiangshang as the acting principal, she promised that she was careless, maybe she deliberately allowed her to get some life

She didn't take this 'equipment' back from us.

At this time, Li Fan didn't want to negotiate with the pursuers behind him, but even more so to go to the naked and directly buy with money.

"What do you think are the chances of success in doing this?"

"Ninety percent!"

Li Fan said in a deep voice: "The average monthly income of Afghan natives is less than ten dollars, while the terrorists in Al Qaeda, they pay a price of 100 dollars a day in exchange for the local residents to provide them with food, medicine and even weapons support. And the soldiers in the anti-Taliban coalition are not so much a motley army as a bunch of bandits who take advantage of them when they see it! In order to collect intelligence on the ground, the special forces of the state had to send some people, and they stayed with the anti-Taliban coalition forces for 24 hours, but what they didn't expect was that al-Qaeda members included us, but instead dug up some military intelligence through these American ** people who were full of resentment against their superiors. ”

Feng Yinglou shook his head, "It's a battlefield, they just stepped into the trap set by Yang Liang, everyone's nerves have collapsed to the limit, you may not have time to take a stand, they will shoot you dead on the spot!" ”

Li Fan, who can lead everyone, has already become the focus of the world's attention, and various forces and special forces are even more full of Tora Bora Mountain, who has struggled to survive for more than two months, and still has not been wiped out by the deputy captain, once again proved to Fengying Lou that it is not a fluke that they can survive until now. Under the gaze of Fengying Building, Li Fan directly hung an armband on his body. This armband looks like an ordinary U.S. ** police logo, the only difference is that it is densely packed with some names that usually look ordinary

Li Fan explained: "After the war against Afghanistan, the U.S. counterterrorism task force sent 5,000 armbands of the New York Police Department and the Fire Department to Afghanistan and handed them over to special forces soldiers. The American special forces like to put this kind of armband on the base terrorists who were killed by themselves, and I am not dead, but I have this kind of armband in my hand, which of course means that I am a mercenary hired by the US government and is their friend. ”

Speaking of this, Li Fan suddenly laughed, "And our mercenaries, like them, are all used as cannon fodder by the Americans and thrown to the battlefield as meat shields, we all have the same experience, so we should be friends with a common language!" ”

Li Fanli's armband, of course, is a token from the American special forces soldiers who threw it on the corpses of the terrorists in the base. If those American GIs knew that the armband they used as a declaration of revenge would be picked up by Li Fan and used as proof of identity, and they would be deceived there every day, I really don't know what they would think in their hearts.

Looking at Li Fan, who was in front of him, calm as water, with the light of wisdom flashing in his eyes, Fengyinglou's heart really swelled with a feeling of being impressed by Shibei for three days. If three years ago, Fengying Mansion could still use Li Fan's concern for Chen Hike to set a trap, but today, Li Fan, who is becoming more and more mature in mind and growing in vision and bearing, really interprets the essence of the art of war after planning and then acting!

Condescendingly, looking at the frightened anti-Taliban coalition soldiers, although Feng Ying Lou didn't know why they were obviously able to use high-speed action to completely get rid of this group of miscellaneous troops, Li Fan still insisted on taking the risk to negotiate with them, but Feng Ying Lou still nodded.

In front of Fengyinglou, Li Fan collected almost two-thirds of the banknotes on everyone present, and after measuring the direction of the wind, he first shouted "Hey", and then with a wave of his arm, he threw more than a dozen banknotes with a denomination of 100 yuan into the air, and let them use the wind to roll and float in the direction of the anti-Taliban coalition troops.

Hearing Li Fan's voice, those soldiers of the anti-Taliban alliance subconsciously raised their hands and there was a burst of strafing, but soon the gunfire stopped, and there was no need to look up, Fengyinglou also knew that it was the dozen or so banknotes that had floated directly to the other party's side from a high place.

Li Fan propped up his bulletproof helmet with the butt of his gun, exposed it outside the rock and kept shaking, he shook it while tearing his throat and "hey", but the other party did not shoot again, among them, there was a faint sound of quarrelling, and there was a tendency to become more and more intense. Li Fan turned his head with a smile and said to Fengying Building: "This is called money opening!" ”

Feng Yinglou also smiled, "I think it's more appropriate to call it rich to make ghosts grind, right?" ”

"More than that!" Li Fan picked up a piece of white cloth with his rifle and danced in the air while smiling: "If I can't let the rich people make the grinding ghost today, what qualifications do I have to be the combat staff officer of the Wind Shadow Building?" ”

After saying these words, Li Fan slowly stood up, he glanced at the Dragon King, and the two of them walked directly to the group of anti-Taliban alliance ragtag troops who were like facing the enemy. At a distance of two or three hundred meters, Fengyinglou couldn't understand what Li Fan and the other party were talking about at all, but through the telescope with infrared night vision function, Fengyinglou could clearly see that the expressions on the faces of the Afghans who were responsible for "negotiating" with Li Fan were getting more and more friendly, and in the end, they hugged each other warmly like old friends who had been reunited with Li Fan for a long time, and a big smile appeared on their faces.

And then to the end...... Those soldiers of the anti-Taliban coalition who were holding special weapons and equipment for the US special forces actually surrendered their grenades, incendiary grenades, smoke grenades, bullet magazines, body armor, and even an automatic grenade projectile and matching grenades into Li Fan's hands, until the feet of the dragon king were piled up into a small mountain.

It wasn't until this time that Fengyinglou knew that Li Fan insisted on "negotiating" with the other party, but he actually pulled out his teeth and packed the weapons and ammunition in the hands of a group of "professional soldiers" on the spot, including the food and medicine they carried, and bought a lot of them.

It is no wonder that the Anglo-American forces were only willing to let these men fight during the day, and at night, they sent snipers to lock the various passages in the mountains. If they are also responsible for participating in the war at night, the ** who is not thin in wealth, if they come up with a few million dollars, it is estimated that it is not impossible for these people to defect on the spot!

When Li Fan and the Dragon King returned to the team with weapons and ammunition on their backs, Fengyinglou finally couldn't help but ask: "Do you think that with the current appearance, can you really trap **?" ”

Li Fan nagged a piece of dried meat in his mouth, shrugged his shoulders while chewing, and said indifferently: "Then only Allah knows." ”
