Ed lived up to expectations and took out a box of cigarettes, Gu Tie glanced at the familiar blue and white packaging and the brand name of Hanyu Pinyin: zhongnanhai0.5mg, "Damn, what do you call a hometown to meet the old ......" He took out a cigarette and lit it with a lighter, took a deep breath, and spit out a smoke ring full of Chinese flavor: "Ed, don't say anything." He gave a thumbs up in satisfaction, "It's just that the point five is too light, and I like to draw eight." ”

The bearded man didn't understand these two technical terms, "What, is this cigarette a Chinese cigarette, I don't know, but I like the taste of this tobacco, Marlian said that smoking hand-rolled tobacco leaves is not good for the lungs, and bought me two of these cigarettes, the taste is light, very good, but unfortunately the rest is burned." ”

"This is Beijing tobacco, although the Beijing factory was acquired by the Shanghai cigarette factory, but Zhongnanhai has not moved to Nanjing Road, Beijing knows, Beijing, China,,, Ma Lenan is a good comrade, cherish people. Gu Tie praised the other party's fiancée vigorously, because he had Chinese cigarettes, his mood changed for no reason, he sat cross-legged and made a posture of swinging the dragon gate array, and it would be more authentic to have a pot of tea and a plate of edamame beside him.

"Three years ago today...... What time is it today? ”

"October 4th. ”

"Oh, three years ago today, I remember it was a good day, actually, the good weather has been going on for a week, the long war is coming to an end, what is that girl's name, Akig, Avatar...... Oh, yes, Azivê. ”

On October 4, 2049, 30 kilometers south of Banghasu, the capital of Mbomu province in the southern Central African Republic, a small party was being held in the temporary command post of the "Freedom Crusade". In addition to wine and music, there are beautiful women in the shack,

"Drink, drink, drink. A group of men gathered around the central area of the room to make a noise, the nominal Supreme Commander of the Free Crusade and the nominal Supreme Leader of the Free Workers' Party, wearing a funny yellow pajamas, Lasihi Okolonkovo squatted on the ground, holding a plastic hose in his mouth, Gu Tie was holding a large barrel of local specialty Abuja distilled spirit, pouring wine into the funnel at the top of the hose.

Barvindra Bishnoy, a handsome young Indian officer, stood aside, smiling and sipping whiskey from his glass, while an African-American girl with sparkling chocolate skin leaned on a wooden cabinet beside him, holding a large glass of bubbling cold beer, and watched the farce with a little dissatisfaction: "Even if you are about to win, you can't mess around like this, the leader should have the natural majesty of a leader." ”

Balvindra laughed, "Just let them make trouble, especially Iron, he's under too much pressure, it's time to cast it well." ”

"Pressure, huh. The black girl took a big sip of beer from her glass, "The girls who slept with him and were abandoned should be stressed, look at the blonde one, what is her name, and she is still standing there talking and laughing, does she forget who cried and swore at dinner that she would never trust a man again." ”

"Her name is Sigrid, and she is a senior liaison officer of the French Democratic Front, and she is very popular among those French volunteers. ”

"In my opinion, she is just a vase beauty who wins by her face and figure, and looking at her delicate little hands, can she hold an AK rifle. The black girl looked the blonde beauty up and down, not to be outdone, puffed up her firm chest wrapped in the green combat vest,

"You are the most beautiful woman in the entire Freedom Crusade, Azivê, and you are the flower of the rainforest. Barr commented,

A smile appeared on Aqiwei's pretty face for a moment, and then she straightened her face: "Come on, Barr, you are a bastard gentleman who likes to bewitch people, you will say the same thing in front of her, if a man like you is crumpled with Gu Tie and then divided equally, they will be two perfect men, then again, do you not like women or what, I haven't seen you flirting with a woman for so long, do you want me to introduce you to a handsome boy." ”

"Thank you for the compliment, I think I have been in love with a woman for a long time, but I don't know if it is love, she is a very nice girl in distant Belarus. Barr took a sip of his wine and looked thoughtfully at the night outside the door,

"It's hard work to talk to you, it's not pleasant. Aziwei snorted and turned to leave,

"Poof. ”

After a record-breaking minute and 35 seconds, Rasihi finally squirted Abuja distilled liquor from both his nostrils and mouth, and fell to the ground with a thud, and the crowd around him erupted in cheers, "A new record, a new record has been born." ”

Gu Tie dropped the wine barrel and crossed his waist and laughed: "Brother, you have refreshed your own record again, the third time this month, this month has only been 4 days, you still have a lot of time to challenge yourself." ”

Lasihi lay on the ground with his hands and feet outstretched, his black skin flushed with drunkenness, like a large boiled lobster, and he called out indistinctly: "Does anyone want to challenge me, if not, I am, I am the champion of the day......"

"Champion, champion. The drunken crowd shouted in unison, lifting Rasihi up and throwing him into the air again and again, the yellow pompoms on his nightcap swaying in the air, this guy who didn't care about his image didn't look like a leader of the People's Liberation Army, more like a drunken clown,

Gu Tie squeezed out of the crowd and stumbled towards Barr with an empty wine glass: "Lao Ba, another person is drinking here alone, bring me a glass of whiskey, preferably a single malt, don't hide it." ”

Barr smiled bitterly: "Don't talk about single malts, all the Scotch whiskey has been drunk, and I have a side-plate bourbon in my glass now, do you want it?" ”

Gu Tie immediately pouted with a bitter face: "The wine made by the American farmer with corn, forget it, I'd better drink beer, Aqiwei, where is Aqiwei, hey, bring me a big glass of cold beer." ”

The black girl replied angrily not far away, "I'm not a bartender, I'm here myself." ”

"Look, woman. Gu Tie turned his head towards Barnunu and walked over with three shakes, "Come on, come on, don't be stingy enough to turn off the power of the diesel generator, keep the temperature below 10 degrees to make the beer taste good, as long as you drink a sip of piping hot canned beer while marching, you will know what fresh urine tastes like......"

"Iron, are you free at night. Just two steps away, a French beauty named Sigrid approached Gu Tie from the side, rubbed his arm with her plump breasts intentionally or unintentionally, leaned close to his ear and whispered,

Gu Tie tried to open his drunken eyes wide, "Oh, Xiaoli, I thought we had broken up, and there was no more, was I with you last night?" ”

Sigrid replied with a silky wink, "You think so, for some reason, I'm particularly excited tonight, maybe it's the effect of distilled spirits...... I'm interested in trying out the pose you proposed last time......"

Gu Tie's eyes lit up: "Then what are you waiting for, let's go and go back to my room." ”

With a wry smile, Barr watched the two of them hug and walk to the door, Aqiwei stood beside him, snorted coldly, and mixed Gu Tie with his long legs in camouflage pants and military boots, intentionally or unintentionally, "Oops." "The drunken Chinese had no roots under his feet, stumbled forward, knocked over the chief's food cabinet with a thud, fell into a pile of trays and cans, and a middle-aged black man with bright feathers on his head and a small child-like stature jumped up in the crowd, pointed at him and cursed,

Everyone laughed, and Rasihi got up from the ground and explained to the tribal chieftain that the village belonged to the Aka tribe among the pygmies, and that the average height of the Akha who worshipped the god of the jungle was no more than 140 centimeters, and that only the chief's own hut was large enough to accommodate a party of twenty people.

Gu Tie turned over and stared at the ceiling in confusion: "What's going on, why is this bed so awkward." ”

At this moment, a burst of gunfire pierced the night sky, "There is an enemy attack, about two hundred men, who have crossed the second cordon and are rapidly approaching from the southeast. The warning sound of the sentry sounded on the walkie-talkie, without half a moment's hesitation, the people in the shack immediately extinguished the lights, grabbed their weapons and rushed into the night, Gu Tie's drunkenness also woke up for most of the time, pushed away Sigrid's outstretched hand, and jumped up by himself: "Take Laxixi to hide in the bunker, this should be their last counterattack." ”

"Got it. The Frenchwoman nodded, set up her drunken commander, and retreated to the fortifications on the edge of the village,

Gu Tie picked up his AK-12 assault rifle in his right hand, grabbed the ammunition bag in his left hand and leaned over and ran into the jungle, the night visibility in the tropical rainforest was very poor, the dense vegetation obscured the moonlight, and the warring sides lacked night vision equipment. Heavy weapons such as cannons, even bazooka bazookas are pitiful, Gu Tie only has a Russian-made RGN attack grenade in his ammunition bag, and he is still an old man left over from some year, and he has no confidence in whether it can explode Gu Tie.

The sound of gunfire came from far and near, mixed with the roars of the enemy soldiers in different tones, "God please, don't you?" Gu Tie spat on the ground, "It's really annoying to shout." ”

From where he was, he could barely see the enemy's muzzle flame in the distance, which was not the best distance for an ambush, Gu Tie knelt behind a tall olive tree and aimed his gun, pointing the crosshair at the place where the ghost cried wolf.

Suddenly, a crisp bird call sounded in the unwilling bushes beside him, four sounds in a group, repeated three times, Gu Tiele was happy, lowered his head and thought about it, pursed his lips and made a set of echo calls, the bushes rang out, and a black shadow sneaked to his side, vigilantly observing the surroundings, his eyes were very bright in the dark environment,

"Aqiwei, the two of us are really fateful, and we always choose an ambush position. Gu Tie laughed in a low voice,

"You're blowing the wrong password again. The black girl stared at him angrily, "The signal I sent was three high and one low, which means 'the enemy is approaching, wait in place', and what are you replying to me, three low and one high, 'I cover, you rush up', now this situation, rush up and send it to death, you irresponsible man." ”

Gu Tie said aggrievedly: "The contact method you invented has changed so much, how can I remember clearly, it would be good to be able to blow it, besides, I am irresponsible, I touched one of your fingers." ”

"It's because you didn't touch a single ...... me," Aziwei said halfway, closed her mouth in annoyance, and snorted,

Gu Tie blew a short note that represented "know",

"You know. The black girl scolded,

A stray bullet passed through the two not far away, the enemy's shouts of killing got closer and closer, the small village fell into a dead silence, there was no firepower to return fire, the experienced freedom crusader soldiers tacitly waited for the opportunity to attack, their only heavy firearms were two Chinese-made Type 98 12.7 mm heavy machine guns hidden in the fortifications on the edge of the village, the weight of this heavy machine gun is only about 20 kilograms, it is said to be a heavy firearm, in fact, it belongs to the level of squad machine guns in terms of accuracy and power,

"Do you know what they're shouting? Gu Tie suddenly remembered this question,

"I repeat, not all blacks speak Swahili and understand each other, I'm South African, and I speak English from novels, and most of the Resistance Army members speak Ugandan and don't understand it as much as you do. Aziwei reprimanded in a low voice,

Gu Tie pursed his lips: "Just asking, why are you so angry...... Is it the menstrual period......

At this time, the first enemy stepped out of the rainforest in tattered rubber shoes and stepped on the flat black earth of the village, "Boom. "An earth-shattering explosion sounded, and the unfortunate man stepped on one of the few old-fashioned pressurized mines that the sappers had planted on the last cordon, and was immediately swept away by the shock wave, crackling and falling to pieces,

"Fire. ”

Balvindra's clear voice resounded in the night sky, "Knock knock knock...... a heavy machine gun burst out of the fire dragon, the warhead was freely scattered within 30 yards of the explosion, the 12.7mm bullet set off a high mud wave, "Bang Bang, Bang ......Bang" The AK-12 automatic rifle in Gu Tie's hand began to fire regularly, and the two muzzle flames were immediately extinguished under his crosshairs,

The enemy's return fire came immediately, various types of rifles and pistols made a chaotic roar, Gu Tie buried his head, the bushes and grass beside him were flying, he sensed the danger from the enemy's gradually corrected ammunition trajectory, jumped out with both legs, and by the way, he pulled Aziwei's arm hard, and the two of them rolled down a few yards away, and the place where they were already covered with tracer bullets red tracks, a little later would end up with the broken olive tree,

Gu Tie was lying on the ground snorting and panting, Aqiwei lay on top of him, spit out the soil in his mouth, and glared at him,

"I saved your life again, eldest sister, why do you always despise me so much. Gu Tieshen said,

"Don't talk nonsense, the enemy is under fire, I just aimed at that machine gunner, damn it. The black girl raised her submachine gun in her hand,

"Then you have to live first...... Besides, can you get up, you've pressed me down on some of my organs. Gu Tie grinned and said,
