From arms dealer to king of war

Mohammed Jacob is a right-wing member of the Taliban, that is, a conservative hardliner. He is one of the top leaders of the Taliban armed forces.

This guy is extremely popular among the younger generation of Tower L class, and is even called by many people as the next successor who can lead Tower L class to glory.

It's a pity that while he misjudged the situation, he also chose the wrong opponent!

P·B is not NATO, and because their purpose is extremely simple and not bound by complicated rules, they can always fully unleash their combat power.

Jacob is not an arrogant man. His mistake is that he misunderstood P·B’s position...

He regarded P.B.'s actions as a continuation of NATO's operations, regarded P.B.'s intention to protect civilians as a split against Afghanistan, and regarded the promotion of women's rights as a political attack on Afghanistan. put one's oar in.

Strictly speaking, his judgment is not wrong, because Europe and the United States have interfered in other countries in this way for the past few decades.

His mistake was that he misunderstood P·B’s position and underestimated P·B’s influence.

Now he was in trouble. While his prestige was damaged, he also had to face criticism from the top leaders of Tower L Class, and he had to take responsibility for the deaths of those soldiers.

Faced with Boss Qiao's oppression, the young leader lowered his head and said "I'm sorry", and then sat down cross-legged under Ahongzhali's instructions, assuming a submissive posture, straightening his back and looking at Boss Qiao with bright eyes... …

"I apologize to you for my recklessness, but you must also show enough sincerity so that we can convince others to trust you..."

Qiao Jia looked at this flexible young general. He smiled and shook his head and said: "I only do what I do, and I don't care whether you trust me or not...

Because trust is mutual, I don’t see anything worthy of my trust in Tower L class at the moment. "

As he spoke, Qiaojia turned and pointed at the looming Kandahar base and said: "Tens of thousands of Afghan people have gathered around my base. They don't trust you and are afraid of you. They feel that there is no way to survive under your hands.

There are many such people in Afghanistan...

You can't even convince them to trust you, so why should I trust you?

When my people took over the Kandahar City Hall, the city of Kandahar was very peaceful. Do you know what this means? "

Akhundzali waved his hand to stop Jacob who wanted to speak, and said in a deep voice: "It means that the civilians in Kandahar feel that it is not bad for the city to be managed by P·B."

Qiao Jia nodded and said: "Kandahar is the most important commercial city in Afghanistan. There is a road connecting Pakistan. Most of the goods in Afghanistan come in through this road.

This trade route supports hundreds of thousands of people, and now these hundreds of thousands of people don't trust you.

You are the one who needs to show sincerity, and convincing others to trust you is your most important task at the moment.

Putting some heavy weapons near the city will not solve your problems, but will only make people want to flee. "

As soon as Qiao Jia finished speaking, a bearded man next to Akhundzali said in a deep voice: "These are the internal affairs of Aqiong Khan, and we have the ability to solve these problems."

Qiaojia sneered and said: "I bet you can't even convince the people who stay in the more than 40 refugee camps in Pakistan to come back.

Once you destroy the current trade situation in Kandahar, this only channel for blood transfusion will be closed.

If the business system completely collapses, people will die. Many people will die!

Death will make those tribal warlords who temporarily believe in you lose their patience, and they will seek their own way to survive.

At that time, even if you captured the capital Kabul and claimed to have liberated Afghanistan, so what?

Your international image, reputation, and credibility have destined you to be unable to solve the problem, and Afghanistan is still torn apart..."

Akhundzali frowned and waved his hands to signal everyone around him to shut up. Then he looked at Boss Qiao and said, "Your people have now occupied the Kandahar City Hall. Do you think you can solve the problems we may face?"

Qiao Jia spread his hands and said: "P·B is just a private contracting company, I can't save a country with a population of 30 million.

However, if you are willing to cooperate, I am confident that the current situation can continue and wait for you to slowly change the political and social ecology within Afghanistan. "

Ahunzhali was silent for a long time. He looked into Boss Qiao's eyes and said, "For example..."

Qiao Jia shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile: "For example, if you cooperate with me to ban poppy cultivation in the southwestern region of Afghanistan with Kandahar as the center, I can use part of the 7 billion to subsidize the farmers to purchase Seeds and fertilizers allow them to grow wheat or barley.

In return, all property collected from drug dealers can be handed over to the Tower L class.

If you don't have channels to deal with that wealth, I can help you operate it through my bank and use the money to buy things that the country of Afghanistan needs.

If the cooperation goes well, I can raise funds from international organizations to recall refugees stranded in Pakistan and Iran, build a city near Ismail's Well in southern Afghanistan, and open a trade channel closer to Gwadar Port.

To the west of this city is the famous "Jili Salt Marsh" in Aqiong Khan. I can invest in helping you develop the salt resources there, allowing you to master a key livelihood resource. "

Boss Qiao’s ‘Holy Mother’s Condition’ stunned everyone. Ahunzhali clearly felt that the people around him were shaken. He said in a deep voice: “What about the conditions? These cannot be without conditions...”

Qiaojia nodded and said: "The condition is that you must open a humanitarian channel between Kandahar and Kabul, allowing all those who do not trust you to go to Kandahar safely, and at the same time declare not to attack people from the former Afghan government and government forces. Carry out pursuit and settlement.

In fact, this is not even a condition, because you must do this if you want to stabilize the situation in Afghanistan. "

When Akhundzali heard this, he shook his head and said: "I will not hold those people accountable, but according to what you said, Aqiong Khan is still divided.

Let all those who hate us and distrust us gather in Kandahar and allow the international community to interfere in the politics of Afghanistan through Kandahar. This is unacceptable to us! "

After hearing this, Choga said with a smile: "What if I hand over Kandahar's city hall to you, hand over the power of Kandahar's administrative taxation to you, and support you?"

As he spoke, Qiao Jia looked at the suddenly widened eyes of a group of people and said with a smile: "Of course, there are conditions..."

"What conditions?"

Qiaojia looked at Jacob who couldn't help asking questions, and he smiled and said: "Kandahar must be an open city, where people's basic rights need to be respected, regardless of men or women!

Tower L squad is not allowed to garrison troops around Kandahar, but you can send security teams...

P.B. As a military contracting company, we can accept your employment to protect the security of this city.

At the same time, my people can help you train this security team, let them put on uniforms, and protect your laws under your leadership. "

Jacob looked at Boss Qiao with a strange expression and said, "We can also hire P·B?"

Qiao Jia spread his hands and said: "Of course, P·B is a military contracting company, of course we can be hired.

However, there are conditions for hiring P·B because we only cooperate with governments and organizations recognized by the international community.

The Taliban are still not interested, but compared to the current high-ranking government officials who are fleeing with money, I am more willing to believe in your determination to save this country, so I can offer you some preferential terms.

I only charge you one dollar...

You can tell the world that you have taken control of Kandahar, but in order to alleviate the concerns of the civilians inside, you decided to hire P.B. to maintain security around Kandahar. "

Jacob looked at Boss Qiao in disbelief and said, "One dollar?"

Under the gaze of everyone, Boss Qiao smiled awkwardly, took out a piece of paper from his pocket and said: "Of course, there are conditions...

Princess Emina sent me a letter conveying to me the wishes of some Afghan women.

P.B. As a global pioneer in protecting women’s rights, I cannot refuse their request, especially after I read this letter..."

Qiao Jia lowered his head to look at the letter and said, "Their requirements are very low. If Class L wants to integrate into the international community, they cannot refuse their request, because in my opinion, what they want is far from enough..."

They demand that adult women have the freedom to marry and that women must not be forced to marry...

Women must not be treated as personal property, women must not be used as objects to settle disputes and neutralize hostilities…

A widow has the right to decide whether to remarry, and she cannot be forced to remarry. The widow should inherit the property of her husband, children, father and other family members according to their shares. "

After saying that, Qiao Jia put away the letter, looked at a group of senior members of Tower L class who were looking at each other, shook his head and said: "These are far from enough in my opinion, so the demands made by these women are more like traps in my opinion.

Once you agree and publish it, you will become a target for human rights groups around the world because these conditions look more like regression than progress.

So I discussed with Princess Emina and added one...

Afghan women need the right to education and work, and Taliban must support and protect these rights.

I don’t know if it can be implemented in other places, but it must be implemented around Kandahar.

Otherwise there will be no basis for cooperation between us! "

When the senior leaders of Tower L class began to have a heated discussion, Akhundzali looked at Qiao Jia and said in a strange tone: "Is this why you have arranged so many troops here?"

Qiao Jia looked at the smiling old man and said with a very serious attitude: "P·B people come from all over the world. We may not be perfect, but we have the same pursuit...

We do not belong to a certain country or political party, we do things for our own conscience!

Ban drugs, protect women's rights, and contribute to solving possible humanitarian disasters...

As the boss of P·B, I can tell you responsibly that these are the things we pursue!

In order to protect our conscience and honor, we will not hesitate to fight against the devil!

We have proven it many times in the past!

That's why we are trusted by many! "

After Ahunzhali listened, he lowered his head and remained silent for a long time, muttering to himself: "Maybe I should also trust you..."
