James was stunned for a moment, Delta? This Lieutenant Colonel Mattis is too yin, right? Come out to do this kind of thing, even if it is exposed, it can't affect the navy, you have to put the basin on the head of the army!

He rolled his eyes and continued: "Delta is okay, after all, it is all our American army, since we have encountered it, then we have to help them, Your Excellency Yusuf, I ask to release them." ”

"Put? They didn't strayed into us because of a navigation problem, they got into our mountains, they even went into the cave, and even detonated explosives, which blew up the cave. Yusuf continued: "As I said just now, my friends have shotguns when they come, and since they are here to invade us, then we will definitely not let them go easily!" ”

"Yes, I know, so we are willing to give you ten M60 tanks and ten M113 armored vehicles."

"Twenty tanks and armored vehicles, just want us to spare the enemy who invades our territory? Gal, drive our tanks over and let our guests see if we need a measly twenty! ”

"Yes!"

Gal immediately ran out.

"Come with me to the roof and have a look."

James took the interpreter and followed Yusuf upstairs with a puzzled expression, and his eyes widened when there was a roar in the distance.

At the end of this road, a group of tanks appeared!

The tanks drove in three columns, one by one, and although they tried to maintain a neat sequence, they still drove crookedly because the tankers were not very good at driving, but this did not affect their momentum.

On the turret of the tank, two people each showed half of their bodies, and their eyes looked at the roof of the small building, as if they were about to be reviewed.

Wait, what's in front of the tank? There are also four Humvees in front, which are the Humvees that the Navy SEALs have been detained, and on those open-top Humvees stand Kuroko soldiers, wearing camouflage uniforms and berets, these clothes are clearly Navy SEALs, except that there are no signs! They stripped the SEALs of their clothes, so what did the SEALs wear?

"Salute!" As the huge army approached, someone shouted.

With this voice, the sunspots raised their hands, some first, some sparsely, and some even raised their left hands, but at this moment, James was still shocked.

How many tanks is this?

At least, there are fifty of them!

Wait, behind the tanks, there are armored vehicles!

Tank units passed, armored vehicles came, rows of armored vehicles drove over, showing off their strength.

When the armored car drove over, there was another buzzing sound, and the army of bicycles came! These bikes have special engines and strange noises, and they have riders in the front and people in the back seats, all carrying bazookas, and they look imposing.

There are more of them, there must be more than 100 of them, although some of them have their engines turned off halfway through, and the sunspots in front of them have to hum and snort, but this does not affect the effect.

The sunspots are demonstrating to James, telling him that they are already a regular army and that they have great fighting power!

This is just a trivial matter, and there is absolutely no need for the Yankees to go into a big fight with Eritrea for such a trivial matter, which will only push them into the arms of the Soviet Union as well! At most, they will dispatch a special operations force, and it is impossible for a large number of planes to come and bomb indiscriminately.

Since the Vietnam War, the righteousness of the Yankees in waging the war has long been questioned, and besides, this matter is completely their pot, they want to steal the gold of the Ethereal People's Formation, but they were caught, and the thieves dare to speak out? This is not the unipolar world of the post-90s.

"Since the main forces are fighting on the front line, we can only show you a small part of our forces." Yusuf said: "Do you think we are short of ten tanks and ten armored vehicles? ”

There is really no shortage of sunspots, even if even if they send over the tanks and armored vehicles that Gade promised, the sunspots don't care about it!

Where did all this equipment come from?

This is something to think about later, and now, James is still thinking about his mission.

"Your Excellency Yusuf, what conditions do you need to release those people?"

"I heard that the lives of your American soldiers are very valuable, and the death pension is half a million dollars? Forty people is 20 million dollars. ”

"That's including insurance premiums, and in this case, they can't get insurance."

"By the way, the training fee for the training team members of the Delta Force is 500,000 US dollars, right? That's another $20 million. ”

This is really not bragging, whether it is Delta or the SEALs, training team members is sky-high, although it is not as good as pilot training, but the price is also high.

James frowned, this is to make the lion open his mouth.

"In that case, forty people is forty million dollars."

"Wait! Your Excellency Yusuf, how can this be superimposed? ”

"Of course it has to be stacked." Yusuf said: "If these people are lost with us, you will have to pay the death pension, and you will have to spend a huge amount of money to retrain, Mr. James, do these two sums of money count together?" If you're gone, do you want your family to get a death pension, or do you want the military to use the money to retrain someone like you? ”

"Your Excellency Yusuf, are you threatening me?"

"No, no, I'm just giving an example." Yusuf gave James a blank look and continued: "That's all said and done, let's move on to the helicopter, it is said that the purchase price of a super stallion helicopter is ten million dollars, and we have two in total, which is twenty million dollars. I'm not very good at math, Mr. James, how much are these? ”

"Sixty million dollars, you want to extort us for sixty million dollars, this is no way!"

"No, no, it's not enough." Yusuf shook his head: "You have forgotten that twenty people blew up our cave, which has existed for more than two thousand years and is our precious historical monument, but you blew it up. Therefore, we have to compensate us for the loss of cultural relics, which is 40 million, which is just a whole amount. ”

One hundred million!

Hearing this number, James had a sneer on his face: "Your Excellency Yusuf, I came with sincerity, I didn't expect you to open your mouth like this, we in the United States are not easy to bully!" Our fleet is nearby and ready to sail at any time! ”

"My friend, you'd better as soon as possible, after all, those people are still in the cave, and I don't know how the air is circulating there, if they suffocate in it, it has nothing to do with us, you better find a way to raise money as soon as possible, so as to rescue them, but you can also ignore them, after all, they are not from your navy."

Threat, this is another threat, if you don't give money, twenty people in the cave will die!

"Last night, we showed mercy, and although they invaded our territory, we just detained them, and no one died. If, because of your delay, the people in the cave go to see the earth, but you send them, it has nothing to do with us. ”

James' face turned pale, and his hands clenched into fists.

"Our conditions have been said, what to do, you guys as soon as possible. I still have something to do, so I won't send you on the plane. ”

Youssef was driving people away, but James also knew that there was nothing he could do now, so he hurried out of here to discuss countermeasures with General Gade.

If time is delayed, the people in the cave may indeed die.

The American left, and Yu Sufu's tense expression immediately relaxed, and he went downstairs in a hurry, and in the restaurant on the first floor, he saw Qin Feng and others.

"Qin, I've already said everything according to your words, and the American is obviously angry, but he doesn't dare to be angry at me." Yusuf said: "Hmph, the Americans really think that they are the world bosses and can do whatever they want on our turf, and they are destined to pay the price!" ”

"Well, this step was a success, so I'll leave it to me."

"Qin, aren't we only going to ask for one or two million? Why do you want 100 million now? ”

"It's not simple, in the words of the East, it's asking for a price all over the sky, and paying back the money on the ground." Mulatu was almost about to have another sub-son, and when you think about it, this is really not what a certain sub-son said.

James returned to base in disappointment.

Walking off the plane, James looked at the small building of the headquarters in the distance, and didn't know how to go in and report, the complexity of this matter was beyond his imagination, and it was not something he could handle.

100 million dollars, who can scrape together so much money? General Gade doesn't have the ability to do this either! You can only report this to the public, and then what? Congress will definitely not approve it, after all, this is not a war, this is just a private job of a commander under the Navy SEALs! If this spreads, it will definitely be a scandal in the US military.

If he had known, he would have come up with an idea, he originally thought it was a good errand, but he didn't expect a lot of trouble.

As he walked forward, he saw a caravan of camels unloading goods from the side of the warehouse, and some men in khaki robes and white turbans were unloading there.

After the Sinai Peninsula was returned to the pyramid country, there were more garrisons here, although the United States was very generous to the pyramid country, and there was a high amount of military aid every year, but the pyramid country also had to say that a large part of the food and drink needs of these garrisons were provided locally.

This camel caravan is to transport these supplies for them, of course, the camel caravan should not last long, and when the road is repaired later, it should be used with all trucks.

The head of this supply team, Hadari, is a frequent visitor to them, and they all know each other.

Seeing James coming, Hadary came out to greet him warmly.

"Mr. James, are you back? What's this busy? Hadari said as he pulled out something wrapped in leaves, which smelled fragrant.

"This is freshly roasted pigeon meat, just right to eat, for you."

When he came here, James fell in love with the roast pigeons of the pyramid country, and every time Hadary came over, he would bring one to him, and the relationship between the two was very good.

In the past, when he saw this, James would immediately take it, but this time, he shook his head helplessly: "Alas, I'm not in the mood to eat, what's happened recently is really upsetting." ”

"What's the matter? If it's a local matter, we might be able to help. ”

Local! James's eyes lit up, yes, how did he forget? If you encounter a problem, you can ask a local person for help, the local person has a complex network of relationships, and may be able to solve the problem for him!

"I want to get in touch with the Erren Formation, do you have a solution?"

"The Erritarian Formation? I don't have a direct relationship, but I can take you to find it if you need it. ”

"Okay, go now, take my helicopter, who are we going to?"

So, the Black Hawk took off again, and Hadari introduced James to Badr, who in turn introduced him to Mahmoud... After looking for six people, it was already the dead of night, and James finally found a tribal elder who could directly contact the Erren Formation.

"You want to get people out of the Erewolves?" When the old man named Mustafa heard this, he immediately frowned: "It's still forty people, and they still went in because they made a mistake?" It's so hard! ”

"You have a good relationship with the Erel People's Front, you intercede with us, and if the other party can accept the plan of releasing him for 10 million US dollars, we can pay you 2 million US dollars."

Asking for a price all over the sky, sitting on the ground to pay back, if you come up and ask the other party for 20 million, then the other party's psychological floor price is several million, and now, You Sufu will ask for 100 million US dollars, and in James's heart, 10 million is already thankful and completely acceptable.

"I can't do it, I've only met with them, and I don't have a deep friendship." Mustafa said: "For them, there is an Oriental who is a good friend of theirs, and you can go to him. ”

"Orientals? Who? What is your name? ”

"Zheng Ming, a few years ago, he came to Africa as the leader of the group to aid Africa, and formed a deep friendship with those people, you can ask him for help, and he will intercede, maybe he can help you."

"Where is he?"

"Sultan."

When the eastern sky was just bright, Zheng Ming got on a Black Hawk helicopter.

"Mr. Zheng, you must help with this favor, we in the United States and you in the East have a good friendship, and we also have a lot of cooperation in the military field."

"Of course." Zheng Ming nodded: "Please rest assured, I will do my best to help, but... It is still a little difficult to bargain from 100 million to 10 million US dollars, and if it really doesn't work, we will bargain for 20 million US dollars, how about it? ”

Two million dollars? James frowned, gritted his teeth and agreed: "Okay." ”

"But, Mr. James, we've done you such a great favor, aren't you ......?"

Doesn't it mean that too? James was nervous for a while, what are you kidding, I don't know where to get the 20 million, and where did I get the money for you?

However, the other party helped to bargain from 100 million to 20 million US dollars, which is a great favor, how can he refuse?

What to do? Is there any way to sell the other party a big favor without spending money?

Pregnant!

James rolled his eyes, and then he thought of an idea: "Among the people who were detained by the Edrel this time, there is an Oriental. ”

"Our people?"

"That's right, your people." James said: "His name is Yu Shengqiang, you should know. ”

"Yu Shengqiang? You want to give him to us? ”

"No, no, how can we hand him over, he is not good to stay in the United States alone, accept the protection of the FBI, he has to run to Africa where birds don't, and he gets lost, and it has nothing to do with us."

A smile appeared on Zheng Ming's face: "Okay, then we will also say that it was in Africa that we accidentally bumped into him." Rest assured, I will help you wholeheartedly. ”

The helicopter landed again in the port of Massawa, and this time, Gal continued to wait there lazily, watching James get off the plane.

"Did you bring the money? If you bring the money, you will go to see our Excellency Yusuf, if not... Mr. Zheng, why are you here? Mr. Zheng, please! ”

Gal's attitude was deferential, which made James very dissatisfied, shouldn't it be that we Americans are superior everywhere? Now how is it the turn of the Orientals?

"Gar, I heard that you have been doing a good job lately, come on, the victory must be yours, by the way, I have a small gift here, please accept it and pass it on to your wife."

Zheng Ming took out a box, Gal opened it, it was shiny, and said excitedly: "Thank you, Mr. Zheng!" ”

James rolled his eyes on the side, thinking what kind of way it was, it turned out to be the pull of Xiao En Xiaohui, and he didn't have any real skills.

Everyone quickly walked to the door of the small building, and there was a sound of knocking footsteps from above, and You Sufu actually came over in person! Before the person arrived, the voice arrived.

"Mr. Zheng, welcome, welcome! It's been a long time since you've been here, and I heard that you've been in Sudan lately, so it's so close, why don't you come here to play? By the way, this port is already ours, and whatever goods you want to import and export in the future, you can use it casually! Huh, how is James with you? ”

"Yes, Mr. James is my friend."

"Friends? Mr. James, why didn't you say earlier, Mr. Zheng's friend is our friend! Since they are all friends, it's easy to say. Yusuf said, "Let's go in, let's talk while drinking coffee, Gal, what are you still doing in a daze, don't you go to make coffee!" ”

"Yes, yes."

This treatment is completely different from the last time, James's whereabouts are finally relieved, it seems that this can be done today.

"Your Excellency Yusuf, our people have been trapped in the cave for a long time, and we need to get them out as soon as possible, otherwise they may suffocate to death, you see..."

"Gal, Gal, where did you die? Quick, go and inform the people guarding the entrance of the cave, and open the cave so that the people inside can breathe. ”

"Yes."

"Your Excellency Yusuf, the clothes of our people..."

"Of course the clothes can be returned to them. Gal, Gal, what are you doing in such a hurry? Return, inform the troops holding the captives and let them get dressed. ”

"Your Excellency Yusuf, we will give you ten million dollars, can you..."

Syllable! Yusuf slapped the table.
