Chapter 39 The State Guest Ceremony and the Golden Knife

Shandra was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and then glared at Yu Songyuan and Liu Guodong fiercely, before she said undoubtedly:

"No problem, they're still your heads. However, they still have their own tasks, which can only be counted as your nominal leaders. You need to enter the Rana training camp run by our Abar trading company first, and receive complete and systematic military training. We also have to review your identity first, and if you meet the requirements, we will arrange specific work according to your training results. ”

Hisalma was speechless for a long time, but nodded respectfully, and said reluctantly, "Okay then, I'll obey the arrangement!" ”

Shandra, like an old hen sheltering her brothers, saw a hint of tenderness in Hirsalma's eyes, which made her very uneasy, and her pretty face became cold as frost.

Liu Guodong lowered his head weakly, he lowered his head, something bad, as if Shandra grabbed something, she reached out and made a heavy burst on his head. Liu Guodong felt very wronged and was very unconvinced. His mouth opened to plead a few words, but he didn't say anything.

He didn't do anything but carry Hissarma across the river twice, which was really wronged. The boss slept with her head to head affectionately, but with no punishment at all, what is this?

Looking at Liu Guodong's aggrieved appearance, thinking that he swore to go back to Xiao Yuan to complain, Yu Songyuan shrugged his shoulders at Liu Guodong, made a grimace, and smiled happily. This scene made Liu Guodong so angry that he almost ran out.

Shandra and the caterpillar also saw this scene, although they had been hiding in the snowy mountains for so long, they firmly believed that Yu Songyuan and Liu Guodong could not do something unbearable. Seeing the two fighting, the caterpillar and Sandra invariably stretched out their hands and slapped Yu Songyuan heavily.

Liu Guodong felt more equal at this time, and laughed happily.

The snow was still falling, and everyone boarded the bus with different moods and started to return to Peshawar. The border post was located on the eastern side of the Kabul River, along a rugged mountain road, with two vans and a truck full of armed ISI operatives with machine guns on the front of the truck, until noon, when it reached the banks of the Swat River.

About to enter the core area of the tribe, Yu Songyuan and Liu Guodong were a little nervous. Liu Guodong gave Thomas and Hirsalma an order to "stay vigilant".

Shandra touched Liu Guodong's head, "Stinky boy, don't be so nervous, it's safe!" ”

Mao Yankai also explained with a smile, "A tribe is a country within a state, and ISI is an independent kingdom. The tribal armed forces are certainly powerful, but in the eyes of the tribal people, the ISI is fiercer than the tiger, and it is even more terrifying! ”

Shandra and the others laughed at him, but Liu Guodong remained vigilant and did not cancel the order.

At noon, at a lunch at a tribe called Urva, the elders of the tribe, knowing what kind of person they were receiving, held a solemn welcoming ceremony and a feast of all sheep. This is a grand ritual that this large tribe of tens of thousands of people will only use during major tribal festivals such as ancestor worship and birthday celebrations.

After the outbreak of the war, the L54th Independent Special Forces Detachment of Spatesnaz, riding Mi-8 and Mi-24P, came and went freely in the northern border area of the Halal Country, constantly raiding and harassing, causing all tribes to pay a heavy price in casualties and property losses. The Urwa tribe, with dozens of large caravans, used to kill people every day, sometimes in one night, dozens or hundreds of people, killed in the attack.

But since a few months ago, the Spetsnaz commandos have been hit frequently. The night in Peshawar has finally calmed down, and the entire northern border area around Peshawar has become safe. Spatesnaz has stopped cross-border raids, and now no violent explosions can be heard in the northern border areas, day or night.

Shandra's prestige increased unprecedentedly, and when the car entered the tribal area, colorful flags were planted along the way. On the way to the Urwa tribe, no matter which tribal village the convoy passed, the elders bowed down at the intersection, and the tribesmen, whether men or women, were dressed in red and green, dressed in festive costumes, and kept bowing to the convoy.

When the convoy arrived at the small two-story building where the elders of the Urwa tribe were deliberating, on the square, forty-eight horns sounded at the same time, and the salute roared "boom" and "boom".

The old mother of Umeng, the leader of Urwa, was in her eighties, dressed in traditional clothes, and with the support of two tribal girls, she gave everyone a bowl of milk tea one by one. He also hugged Shandra, Caterpillar, and Hisalma, kissed their faces, and put a beautiful silk scarf on each of them. Then he hugged Yu Songyuan, Liu Guodong, and Thomas, and kissed their foreheads.

After the old man retreated, the horn whistled again, and the drum sound of "dong" and "dong" shook the sky.

Wumeng asked Mao Yankai and Shandra to review the honor guard, and Shandra was not stage frightened at all, and together with Mao Yankai, he walked on the red carpet generously, accompanied by Wumeng, and inspected the honor guard of the tribe. The honor guards are the most elite young men in the tribe, and all of them are brand-new Chinese Type 56 submachine guns, with black and shiny military thorns.

Yu Songyuan and Liu Guodong glanced at each other, which was a bit incredible, and even a little funny. This is a state etiquette, and this tribe is too big, right? Looking at Mao Yankai and Shandra, who were serious and meticulous, while the old man Wumeng trembled and accompanied the two big men, this scene made people laugh.

After the review, the guests were invited to enter the hall on the second floor, where the folk dance was performed first, and then the feast. It's just that there is no wine at the banquet, and milk tea is used instead of wine throughout the whole process. In front of everyone, there is a whole little lamb, and it is roasted, brown and crispy, and the taste is naturally beautiful.

To add to the fun, the following is the traditional tribal performance project "Top Cow".

The so-called "top cow" is similar to the wrestling of the Mongolian people in China, and it is also like the sumo wrestling of the Wa Kingdom.

Two fat men nine feet long, dressed in national costumes, walked on both ends of the carpet. Start by stepping on the drums, raising your hands or legs, swaying from side to side, and dancing exaggeratedly. After the jump, the two of them bowed to their feet, grabbed each other's shoulders with both hands, and put their heads on top of them like two bulls. Then, with your hands on your waist, you will compete with each other in the fierce drumming and the cheering and cheering around you.

This scene made Yu Songyuan and Liu Guodong feel incredible.

Later, they learned that the ancestors of the Urwa tribe were indeed from western China, a subordinate branch of the Wuhuan tribe, a small grassland tribe. In that year, after being defeated by the powerful Huns, some of them crossed the Pamir Plateau and settled at the foot of the Hindu Kush Mountains. His descendants are the Urwa tribe today.

At this time, the victory and defeat were almost decided on the field, and a big man finally lost his physical strength, retreated again and again, and then clenched his fists and admitted defeat.

The winning team stepped on the drum beat on the stage and began to dance an exaggerated traditional dance. Seeing that they still didn't go, Yu Songyuan and Liu Guodong understood that they wanted to challenge the two mysterious Chinese with unique skills and legendary experiences. Thomas didn't wait for Yu Songyuan and Liu Guodong to make a statement, and took the initiative to go on the field.

Thomas is almost 1.9 meters tall and is good at boxing. But after all, he has been on the mountain for more than two years, and his physical strength is not as good as before, and he has a leg injury. Despite my best efforts, I still can't support it. After three rounds, he was defeated.

Shandra looked at Yu Songyuan and Liu Guodong expectantly, and Liu Guodong felt weak in his heart.

If it is sanda, Liu Guodong will not make much effort and will definitely win. But this is a "top cow", the head must be on the head, the hands must be on the waist, and no other places are allowed to exert force. This is a job that purely plays physical strength, waist strength, and cervical spine strength, and the big man can crush him with tonnage, how can he play?

Yu Songyuan naturally knew the strengths and weaknesses of his players, and he didn't let Liu Guodong play. In Liu Guodong's anxiety, he stood up and walked on the field. The two first supported each other's shoulders and put their heads on their heads, and then put their hands on their waists, preparing for the competition.

The big man is a quarter taller than him, just like an adult and a teenager are "bulls", which is really disproportionate, and the scene is even a little funny.

What made the guests unbelievable was that at the beginning of the game, Dahan retreated again and again, and he didn't support it, which made people feel incredible. Dahan took the initiative to admit defeat, his hands were still holding his waist, and he ended up in a pose. Another big man came up, and it was the same, and he also went down the field in a gray pose.

Yu Song returned to his seat without changing his face, everyone was puzzled, and he didn't explain.

The banquet continued, and after a while, a tribal girl quietly lay in Yu Songyuan's ear and said a few words, Yu Songyuan got up and went out for a while, only to see the two big men still posing, already sweating profusely. Yu Songyuan said sorry, and helped them solve the acupoints in two clicks.

Seeing Yu Songyuan coming back, Sandra was still puzzled. Thomas looked at Yu Songyuan in amazement, and shook his head frequently inexplicably. The caterpillar whispered something in Shandra's ear before she nodded and shook her head again.

Hissarma's men, and Shandra's ISI agents, of course, could only attend the banquet in the hall on the first floor, and they didn't catch a glimpse of the drama.

During the feast, Umeng presented Shandra, Caterpillar, and Shisharma with a set of precious silk saris. Urva sabers were presented to Mao Yankai, Yu Songyuan, Liu Guodong, and Thomas. This heavy gift made everyone gasp. That's right, although the blue charcoal flames are jumping in the indoor brazier, everyone is a big breath of cool air.

Because the scabbard is made of purple cowhide and copper, the blade is made of steel that has been hammered out of thousands of times, and it is extremely sharp. And on the hilt, in the shape of the Big Dipper, it is inlaid with seven multicolored gemstones. The handle is made of two pieces of pure copper, and two pieces of yellow pure gold are inlaid in the middle.

What's even more surprising is that what was given to Yu Songyuan and Liu Guodong was two sabers per person. At first, they were puzzled, but they looked at the handle of the knife, and everyone's name was clearly engraved on it, including Lin Tao and Lin Zhumin. It turned out that this was tailor-made, which made Yu Songyuan and Liu Guodong really nervous.

How will they know our names? Have we been exposed......

In the evening, they returned to the Alba Trading Company, where the ISI headquarters in Peshawar on the first floor of the Red House had set up a temporary memorial hall for Lieutenant Razak Hussein in accordance with Chinese custom. Yu Songyuan and Liu Guodong first took Hisalma, Thomas, Hawash, and Mahmoudi to the memorial hall to pay tribute to the sacrificed comrades.

Back in the Yellow Building, several team members hugged each other tightly, and Sylna gave them a hot kiss in front of everyone. Xiao Ali rode to the necks of Yu Songyuan and Liu Guodong and didn't come down. Especially the arrival of the little landlord and Anna and Ruth made little Ali even more happy.

Thomas felt very disappointed, and the beautiful Scherna deliberately did not kiss him.
