In fact, Gao Yuan still doesn't know which force Blackbeard represents, and he doesn't even bother to ask. At the very least, he has a competitive relationship with Atik and the others. Is it serious? They are mortal enemies.

So Atik nodded to express his position. Without saying a word, the matter was done.

Put aside the appearance and look at the essence, some things are just that simple.

"How are you going to surrender?"

"We surrender? No, no, no, you are mistaken. They surrendered, not us. We are just acting as an intermediary between you and the Americans. This surrender has nothing to do with us."

Regarding Gao Yuan's denial, Atik said without any hesitation: "Then how do the Americans plan to surrender?"

Gao Yuan thought for a while and said: "The specific method needs to be communicated with them again, but the form is secondary, the important thing is the essence. What I can promise you now is that all the excess weapons in the base will be left to you.

There are a large number of small arms, mortars, tanks, armored vehicles, and machine guns..."

Atik nodded and said, "What else?"

"The whole base is for you."

"Where's the food?"

"There is no food, because they themselves are almost out of food. If you ask them to leave all the food, it will cost their lives, and this surrender will be impossible."

Atik thought for a while and said: "So... what about the surrender ceremony?"

"What about this ceremony..."

Gao Yuan thought for a while, and then he said to Atik: "The ceremony is not important, is it?"

"No, the ceremony is very important."

Gao Yuan rubbed his chin. He thought for a long time, and finally whispered: "You see it is like this."

Gao Yuan looked like he was about to start a long speech, and Li Yang knew that Gao Yuan was about to start his performance.

"I am willing to fight for your best interests. Why am I looking for you instead of other people? It's because we have a traditional friendship, I respect you, and more importantly, you can communicate.

, because you are very rational and wise. Before choosing a surrender partner or negotiation partner, it is most basic to find the right person. What do you think?"

Atik nodded and said, "That's true."

Gao Yuan said sincerely: "So I am willing to do my best to fight for your interests, but if your demands are too harsh, what if the Americans choose to surrender to the other side?"

This principle is not difficult to understand, nor is it difficult to explain.

Atik nodded.

Gao Yuan continued: "So I can guarantee that as long as you have useful things, I will give you everything, and I will also give you the base. If you can't use it, you can even destroy it. Also, you and the Americans have reached a tacit understanding. Don't show that the Americans want to ask you."

Surrender, until finally, you suddenly take over all the supplies left by the Americans, so that no one can take away your spoils."

Atik frowned and said, "This doesn't sound like surrender, but cooperation."

"No, this is surrender. When they decide to abandon their camp and leave their weapons behind, just to be able to leave the country alive, what is this other than surrender?"

Atik frowned and nodded.

"Since they want to surrender to you and are willing to cooperate fully, then is it acceptable to allow them to retain their final dignity? Isn't this too much?"

Gao Yuan made a very serious expression and said: "I am willing to seek the best interests for you, but I also want to fight for the most important thing for them, which is dignity. Sometimes dignity is really important. If you must

If you take away their dignity, then many things will be out of control, so why not retain the last bit of dignity for them and get the maximum benefit for you, wouldn't it be better?"

Atik stared at Gao Yuan closely, Gao Yuan's gaze did not flinch. After a moment, Atik breathed out and said: "You are a good middleman, okay, I agree with your conditions, but how can you guarantee that the Americans

This is true surrender, not just some trick."

Gao Yuan waved his hand and said to Atik: "You can negotiate with General Andrew Marshall, the highest commander in the United States, now. I suggest you go in a formal capacity, such as... the Commander of the Avhan Rescue Corps.

Name, what do you think?"

Atik was in a daze, and Li Yang wanted to laugh when he translated Gao Yuan's words. At the same time, he also felt that Gao Yuan was really underestimating his talents by not being a serious guest or a broker.

But Atik's son whispered from the side: "Father, I think his proposal is very reasonable."

Only the old man sat aside, holding the gun in his left hand, still smiling and saying nothing.

Atik touched his beard and couldn't help but nodded very slightly.

Gao Yuan continued: "I will stay as a hostage, and you go to the military base to talk to General Marshall."

Atik thought for a long time, and then he said in a deep voice: "Today is not appropriate, tomorrow? I need to go back and talk to the tribal elders."

Gao Yuan immediately said: "No problem."

Atik continued: "I'll come here tomorrow. We'll talk outside. We don't need you to be a hostage. If you were an American, I wouldn't sit down and negotiate with you at all, but you are a Chinese, and Chinese people keep their word.

It’s different from Americans, so you must attend tomorrow, I don’t trust Americans.”

Gao Yuan smiled and said, "Thank you, I will definitely attend tomorrow."

Atik nodded, and then he turned and spoke to his son Galini, but what he spoke was not Pashto, but Farsi.

Galini stood up and wanted to help his uncle, and Atik also stood up with his hands on the ground. Then he stretched out his hand towards Gao Yuan and said: "I don't think this is surrender, so I need to persuade him."

Some people hope I can convince them, so see you tomorrow."

Gao Yuan stretched out his hand to shake Atik's hand, and then he smiled and said: "This is surrender, see you tomorrow."

Ashraf did not reach out to grab his nephew's hand. He grabbed his rifle with his left hand. After one arm could not move, it was still difficult to stand up from the spot, but Ashraf still stood up holding the gun with his left hand.

Instead of being pulled up by my nephew.

Gao Yuan looked at the old man, and then he suddenly said: "His shoulder is injured, maybe it's dislocated. Why don't we let him follow us into the base. We have very good doctors. You can wait until he heals his shoulder before leaving.

How do you feel?"

Atik was stunned for a moment. He looked at Ashraf. Ashraf still had a smile on his face, but there was no reaction at all.

Atik hesitated for a moment and said, "You have to ensure his safety."

Gao Yuan smiled and said, "I'll stay and I'll go back when he comes out."

Ashraf finally said: "No need."
