Chapter 850 Village Chat
Kim Hyun-tai and his party rested in the valley at about 11 a.m. Almost an hour later, the guerrillas the guide said showed up.
They were dressed in simple Afghan national style and had long beards. They all looked a little malnourished, but this is understandable. After all, the Soviet blockade was very severe, and it was normal for the guerrillas not to eat or drink well. things.
If they can eat and drink a lot of money, that would be a big deal.
Although there is a large amount of secret assistance from the United States, those supplies are really a drop in the bucket. The reason is very simple. There are too many people in the resistance organization in Afghanistan.
At the same time, part of those supplies must be allocated to the Afghan refugees who enter the refugee camps in Pakistan. Therefore, if the guerrillas get a share and the refugees take some, how much aid will be left?
None of the guerrillas objected to the distribution of limited supplies to compatriots in Pakistani refugee camps, because they also came from refugee camps, and many of their families were still living in refugee camps.
So who doesn’t want their family to live a better life?
The bearded guerrilla was not very talkative, far less talkative than Bin Ramadan. He just briefly introduced himself to Kim Hyun Tae, and exchanged secret codes with Kim Hyun Tae. When everything was in order, he immediately took him with him. After Jin Xiantai and the others tidied up, they left the valley.
It's not bad to talk too much. Kim Hyun Tae doesn't want to communicate too much with the other party.
In this way, Jin Xiantai and the others came to a small village under the control of the guerrillas and were arranged to settle here. At the same time, the other party also left a few women to take care of the food of the group, which was considered a very thoughtful consideration.
Of course, these women may also be responsible for monitoring Jin Xiantai and the others, but Jin Xiantai and the others did not express anything about this and happily accepted the arrangement.
After settling in Jin Xiantai and the others, the bearded man was about to take people away, but before leaving, he told Jin Xiantai that he would arrange a battle to attract the Soviet air power. Now all Jin Xiantai needs to do is to wait patiently for notification.
At this point, what else could Jin Xiantae say? All he could do was nod.
The small village where Jin Xiantai and others were settled had a small population, only a few dozen households, and most of the young adults had run away, so the only people left in the village were old people, women, and children.
The houses in the village are all made of local yellow clay. At most, the walls are covered with a layer of yellow clay. There is no running water or even electricity in the village.
But Jin Xiantai and the others don't care about these inconvenient things. After all, they won't live here for too long. They will leave as soon as they complete the weapon testing.
But the barrenness here still left a deep impression on Kim Hyun-tae.
The village is located halfway up a hill. Standing at the entrance of the village and looking around, there are all the bare Huangshan Mountains. Only after asking the old people who stayed in the village did they know that they are the only ones with a radius of more than a hundred miles. This village, the nearest village is more than 160 miles away from their village on a mountain road, and it would take two days to walk.
I'll do it!
Jin Xiantai has absolutely no interest in this place.
But there is one good thing about such a desolate village, that is, it is very quiet.
That's right, it was so quiet that the sound of a fart at the entrance of the village could be heard throughout the whole village.
There are no animals in the village, not chickens, ducks, geese, or even dogs. Because of the war, the entire village has lost its source of income and also lost the way to buy daily necessities from outside.
Fortunately, the nearby guerrillas spotted this place and used this village as a secret rest stop. Therefore, the villagers were able to obtain some living supplies from the guerrillas to keep themselves alive.
Of course, the hardship of life is beyond description.
Although there was some care from the guerrillas, it was only to ensure that they did not starve to death.
Jin Xiantai walked around the village and basically got a preliminary understanding of the village. The people here are very simple, but they are very wary and hostile to outsiders. Fortunately, they are with the guerrillas. people came, so this hostility was hidden by the people in the village.
If they came to this village without the leadership of the guerrillas, it's hard to say what would have happened.
Moreover, Jin Xiantai discovered that every household in the village had weapons. After learning about it, he learned that these weapons were given to them by the guerrillas.
The children in the village were very dirty and completely different from the children we saw in the United States, but their eyes were very innocent.
Unfortunately, these innocent-eyed children do not know that their country is in a war, and this war is likely to spread to their small village.
I really don’t know if these children will retain their current innocence after experiencing the war.
Turning around and arriving at the entrance of the village again, Jin Xiantai pondered secretly in his heart.
Selena didn't know when she appeared from behind and walked to Jin Xiantai's side and stopped.
"Those women are actually monitoring us. It seems that the guerrillas are not very friendly to us, or even trust us. This is not a good sign."
Selina looked a little worried about this problem.
Kim Hyun-tai didn't care at all, because he knew very well that Afghanistan and the United States would become enemies in the future, so it was not surprising that these Afghans were not too friendly.
There are no idiots in the world!
Afghans are not stupid either!
Although the Americans provided supplies to the Afghan resistance team, they had to sacrifice their lives to fight the Soviets.
So after more than a year, the Afghans gradually understood this, and after understanding this, they became less grateful to the Americans.
After all, the Americans provided help for their own purposes, and the Afghans were just being used, but they could not refuse this kind of use.
But to talk about being grateful to the United States is truly impossible.
You may still have this idea in the early days, but once you understand it, it is impossible.
The current Afghans have obviously figured this out and understood the Americans' plans.
Having thought of this, Kim Hyuntai certainly wouldn't be as worried as Selena, so he explained to Selina: "We Americans use them and the Soviets to fight hard, and we only pay for some supplies. Here Obviously there is some unfairness.
But even if it's unfair, the Afghans still have to accept it. After all, we are the only ones providing them with aid and supplies.
At the same time, Afghans are not stupid. Don’t they know our plans? Obviously after almost a year, the current leadership of the resistance forces have figured out these problems and understand that we are just using them.
So how can they be grateful to us and be kind to us from the bottom of their hearts?
In fact, we are just using each other. In the distant future, maybe we will turn against each other and become enemies, but I guarantee that in the current situation, the things you are worried about will never happen. "
Having said this, Jin Xiantai paused for a moment, with a thoughtful look on his face.
After a while, Jin Xiantae continued to say to Selena: "That's why we put some spies around us to monitor us. In fact, this is understandable. After all, it is necessary to be on guard against others."
Doesn’t Kim Hyun Tae say it doesn’t make sense?
At least Selina thinks it makes sense.
But it made sense, and she felt very uncomfortable with it anyway.
So Selina said to Kim Hyun Tae: "Although you said they have no malicious intent, I will still do a good job in security matters. I don't want anything to happen here."
Jin Xiantai nodded, he also agreed with Selina's idea.
You can’t have the intention to harm others, but you can’t have the intention to let others go!
This is a wise saying left by the ancestors of China.
"You are right. You need to strengthen security affairs. I am also very worried that in this stressful environment, some traitors will appear in the Afghan resistance organizations and they will betray us to the Soviets."
It is not that Kim Hyun Tae has not been worried about this matter.
Humans have weaknesses!
Not all Afghans are tough guys.
When faced with the temptation of survival and sufficient interests, who can guarantee that it will be so unswerving.
Especially the current situation in Afghanistan is very bad. Therefore, if there is no guarantee, some people feel that they cannot see the tomorrow and desperately defect to the Soviet Union.
According to the intelligence provided by the CIA before arriving, the Soviets had already begun preparing to establish a puppet regime in Afghanistan, and many people had begun to defect to the Soviets and were actively working for the Soviets.
They also include many people with middle- and high-level positions in the original resistance organization.
Therefore, it is really hard to say what Jin Xiantai is thinking about.
After Selina saw that Kim Hyun Tae agreed with her, a bright smile suddenly broke out on her face.
Maybe she is a girl and is happy because of Kim Hyun Tae's approval.
"Don't worry, my main task is to ensure your safety. This is why Director Jonathan asked Fury to ask me to continue to follow you. It can be seen that they still care about you, but I don't understand why Jonathan is like this I care about you, is he an old glass?"
Selena, who was in a good mood, made a joke with Kim Hyun Tae.
Jin Xiantai smiled and shook his head, then raised his eyes and thought about the stretching valley: "Of course they care about me, because I have value. If I have no value, do you think they will care about my safety?"
After thinking about it, Selina thought it made sense, and nodded: "You are indeed quite valuable, and you are also very rich. Did you pay a bribe?"
Hearing this, Jin Xiantai suddenly thought of Frankstein and Andrew because of Selina's words, and when he asked Old George to offer Jonathan the price, he couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.
What surprised Jin Xiantai even more was that according to the message Old George gave him, someone like Jonathan actually agreed to accept this kickback proposal. This was really special...
