Chapter 1646 Crow's Mouth (Part 1)
In the army camps in Afghanistan, well, not bad!
It has to be said that the Americans are worth learning from other countries in terms of military logistics support. The living facilities in the base are very complete. Apart from not meeting the luxury standard of a star hotel, the ordinary cleanliness and practicality are fully achieved.
The meals were also arranged very thoughtfully. The dinner prepared for Guo Tailai, Xiao Finn and others alone included fish, steak and red wine. Guo Tailai suspected that this had something to do with the suitcase he gave when he got off the plane.
There should be strict discipline in the army, and the secrecy policy should be strictly enforced, but Guo Tailai soon discovered that the frontline base of the US military seems to be different from that in China.
Generally speaking, ordinary soldiers definitely don't know who is in the army, and they shouldn't know. Don't ask what shouldn't be asked, and don't say what shouldn't be said! However, here, Guo Tailai walked around the door after dinner for a while, when soldiers came up to strike up a conversation.
"Mr. T! Can I take a photo with you?" A second lieutenant asked Guo Tailai enthusiastically with a smile.
His identity was actually known by these soldiers? Guo Tailai was surprised: "It's okay to take a group photo, is it here?"
"No, no, no!" The second lieutenant hurriedly waved his hands: "It's over there, wait a moment, I'll let them drive the car over."
Still want to drive? Guo Tailai was taken aback for a moment, but he immediately felt relieved. In the 3D field of vision, Guo Tailai saw a car approaching not far away under the call of the second lieutenant. It looked familiar. It was an enhanced version of the Hummer, NXT360. Guo Tailai's design was sold to the Americans to replace the current Hummer thin-skinned coffin. I got off the plane today with a normal Hummer, but at night I saw an enhanced version of the Hummer.
"You have already equipped this vehicle?" This was a complete surprise. Guo Tailai didn't care much about how the American military vehicles were equipped, but he didn't know that the vehicles had been sent to the front line in Afghanistan.
Guo Tailai's unexpected expression made the second lieutenant very happy, and he said very jokingly: "It has been equipped for half a year, but not all of them have been changed yet. After this car is equipped, the brothers travel much safer. You are the designer of the car, and you are the indirect rescuer." Many of us brothers, thank you very much! So we want to take a photo with you, and the car."
"Ok, no problem." Guo Tailai said there was no problem at all, but turned around and asked curiously: "Have you ever watched English football? How did you recognize me all of a sudden?"
Most Americans don't watch football very much. They don't care whether Tottenham Hotspur won the Champions League or Brazil won the World Cup. It is strange that they can recognize Guo Tailai.
"It was the officer who told us the identity of the guest." The second lieutenant replied indifferently: "The officer said that the guest who came to the base today is a celebrity, Mr. T, the designer of the new Hummer, and the brothers are very happy. Sir, you We also like the other cars we designed!"
Nonsense, except for military vehicles, the cars designed by Guo Tailai are either head-of-state luxury cars or supercars. As long as it is a man, it's no wonder that he doesn't like it.
It wasn't just the second lieutenant who came to take a group photo, there were at least 20 dozen of them, and everyone rushed to take a photo with Guo Tailai and the car. Obviously, this is treating Guo Tailai as an idol to chase stars.
"Sir, it is said that you bought Marvel because of that short-sighted guy, isn't that true?" A soldier asked curiously after scissorhands took a photo.
"No." Guo Tailai seriously acted as the background board of these excited soldiers, and replied slowly: "I am for Iron Man! You know, I like Tony Stark!"
"Oh oh oh! Understood!" Several soldiers booed jokingly, and the atmosphere at the scene was very lively.
Guo Tailai didn't think it was a big deal, but the soldiers were crying and howling with excitement. This is Mr. T! The super rich, the ultimate car design master, the idol! To be able to take a photo with such a celebrity in a boring military camp is simply a miracle.
The soldiers in the base admired Guo Tailai very much, which surprised Guo Tailai. Of course, while worshiping, Guo Tailai also felt envy and jealousy. As a billionaire, it is very normal to feel the emotions of ordinary soldiers.
Because of the excitement caused by the group photo, more people knew that Mr. T had come to the barracks, and more people took group photos. But this time Guo Tailai didn't save face any more, he just gave him a chance to take a group photo, and then he went back to his room to rest.
When setting off the next morning, Guo Tailai saw yesterday's second lieutenant among the soldiers accompanying him and Little Finn, which was a coincidence. The convoy consisted of seven vehicles, two enhanced Hummers, and five ordinary Hummers. The group drove from the US military base in Kabul to the Bamiyan Buddha, a hundred kilometers away.
"This road is very safe." The second lieutenant introduced to Guo Tailai and Little Finn in the car: "You know, we are going to a place with a Buddha statue, those Taliban guys, besides blowing up the Buddha statue, they are Not likely to go here."
"Why don't you take a helicopter?" Little Finn was startled by the IED on the roadside in Iraq last time, and he still has lingering fears. However, he still dared to insist on accompanying Guo Tailai to Afghanistan, which was already a great deal of face.
"The helicopter dispatched alone is more dangerous." The second lieutenant replied without hesitation: "But a large-scale dispatch, you know, requires the review of the frontline headquarters, which is very troublesome, and the convoy is relatively simple."
Guo Tailai’s visit this time was regarded as private work. Old Finn didn’t handle the front-line commander in Afghanistan, but only the officers in a few military bases. It’s okay to accompany Guo Tailai to make a small fuss, but dispatching a large number of helicopters is definitely not possible.
As the second lieutenant expected, the convoy arrived at the area where the Bamiyan Buddha is located. Under the bombed Buddha statue, Guo Tailai blankly held a few photos of the big Buddha that had not been bombed before, looked at the now empty mountain wall, and shook his head: "It's a pity!"
This place has been completely bombed. Even if Finn believes in Jesus, it does not prevent him from expressing his regret for the bombing of cultural heritage. Standing in front of the empty grotto, not only Guo Tailai and Little Finn were shaking their heads, but even the soldiers who came together were sighing.
Fortunately, the bombing of the Buddha statue did not prevent Guo Tailai from hearing the prompt sound like fairy music. After stroking the mountain wall for a few minutes, Guo Tailai retracted ten thousand nanorobots with a thin thread composed of nanorobots extending from his body. In his own body, even if the location of the nano-robots is the earliest oil painting in the world, he can't care about it. Let future generations discover these, there is no need to make a big fuss now.
Heaving a sigh of relief, Guo Tailai suddenly found out that a group of soldiers protected himself and Finn in a Humvee and drove wildly in Afghanistan. Why does this scene look like the beginning of the "Iron Man" movie? Won't a group of militants jump out and want to kidnap you?
