Shortly after Karim warned Seryosha, Seryosha and the others finally came to trial, and all of them would be executed, if not surprisingly.
In fact, everyone knows in their hearts that the so-called trial is just an excuse.
As the two warring parties, everyone has their own positions, and there is no question of who judges whom.
Jalal specially invited Western reporters for this day, and the reporters even drove a broadcast van to do live coverage.
Presumably to show the world that the Paghman forces complied with the Geneva Conventions and did not mistreat prisoners of war, Seryosha was allowed to take a shower and change into Afghan clothes before they left.
After this, they also ate the only decent meal in the past few days.
After the meal, Seryosha was quickly escorted into the car and veiled, although Seryosha already had a mature plan, but there was still no suitable time to carry it out, and the thought that tonight was the deadline, Seryosha couldn't help but feel anxious, and he secretly prayed in his heart that Karim's movements must be faster.
The car did not head towards the mountains, but went straight to the ancient city of Pagman.
The place of judgment was a large auditorium, the windows were all closed and nailed from the outside, the room was lit up with several large orange lamps shining forward, a row of carpets was laid on the left hand side of the door, and a black flag was hung on the wall directly in front of it, on which something was written in Arabic.
On either side stood soldiers dressed in uniform and holding weapons with their faces covered.
Seryosha slowly walked into the venue with Lebed, who had difficulty moving, probably because of the presence of reporters, and the guards in charge of guarding today were exceptionally civilized.
No matter how slow Seryosha walked, no one came up to push and urge.
As soon as they entered the venue, all the prisoners of war were forced to kneel on the carpet next to the wall, and Lebed said to Seryosha with emotion: "As the supreme commander here, they will definitely pull me to the front, I don't care, but unfortunately once I am used by these ill-intentioned journalists, those high-level people in China will not let me go, and I am afraid that my relatives in China will not be able to get the martyrs' compensation." ” Seryosha did not answer, he first helped Lebed to sit down slowly, and then sat down beside him himself.
As soon as all the prisoners of war were seated, the reporters pointed their cameras at them, and the flashes kept shining at them.
Seryosha deliberately blocked Lebed behind him, not for anything else, just so that once Lebed died, his relatives in China could get the due pension.
After all the prisoners of war sat on their knees and waited for more than half an hour, Jalal slowly walked into the venue with his people, and the reporters saw that Jalal was followed by a bunch of people, knowing that his status in the guerrillas must be very high, so they all came to him, but all they opened and closed their mouths to ask why Hafizollah did not come.
Jalal's heart couldn't help but feel angry, no matter how he asked, it was Hafizzola, although he thought so in his heart, but he didn't dare to show it on his face, he pretended to be sad, and said in a choked voice: "General Hafizola was unfortunately killed by an assassin sent by the despicable Russians a few days ago, and we Pagmans will always miss him" He spoke in English, so the reporters didn't need to translate, even Seryosha heard it clearly.
After Jalal finished speaking, he didn't wait for the reporters to ask questions, and under the leadership of the bodyguards, he squeezed out a path from the reporters and walked straight away.
Jalal did not want to make any further trouble, and he ordered the judge on the stage to start the trial immediately, and the judge on the stage wore a black robe and a large beard.
He cleared his throat, then put on his glasses and began to read the script, this time in Pashto, which Seryosha did not understand, but the reporter below quickly pointed the camera at him.
When the long manuscript was finally read, two partisans with guns came up and stretched out their hands to grab Lebed and drag him to the stage, when Seryosha stood up and stopped them, and said in English that he had given me the supreme command of this unit as early as the time of the battle, and now I am the supreme commander of this unit, and what is coming at me.
Lebed struggled to get up, but was pinned to the ground by Seryosha.
All the reporters heard Seryosha's words, and the cameras in the room were instantly focused on Seryosha, who strode to the front desk with his head held high, and then sat there with a big grin, as if he was the master of the place.
Seryosha had already made up his mind that even if today was the last day of his life, he would never give in.
"Soviets, repent of your crimes, we can let you die a decent death, otherwise, I don't mind letting you taste the punishment of the Afghans" The judge vaguely reminded Seryosha in English to be honest, otherwise you will look good.
Seryosha didn't seem to hear the judge's meaning, he said solemnly: "I'm not guilty, I fought for my motherland, even if I do it a hundred times again, I will still do what I should do, fight for the enemy's life like a man on the battlefield" The reporters in the audience were excited by Seryosha's words, it seems that this is not a pre-arranged farce, but a real big news "Shut up, you despicable Russian pig, what qualifications do you have to say that you are upright, that is, you sent assassins to kill General Hafizollah in a suicide attack" Jalal couldn't help but stand up and retort Seryosha's words.
He grew up in the United States, and speaking English was not a problem for him at all.
"I'm just afraid that Hafizolla was killed by you, we don't have such a great ability to hire an Arab killer," Seryosha said sarcastically, Jalar in the audience was instantly caught on the sore foot, the fist hidden in his sleeve was already clenched white, if it wasn't for the public in front of so many reporters, he would definitely kill this guy on the spot with a gun.
Although most of the Russian prisoners of war in the audience could not understand, they could see that Seryosha on the stage did not make any mistakes, and everyone was already a little fearless under the encouragement of Seryosha, and everyone desperately wanted to stand up like a chicken, and they shouted: "Seryosha, Ula" "Soviet, Ula" The reporters were excitedly recording this exciting scene.
Furious, Jalal grabbed a pistol and rushed up, pointed it at Seryosha's head, roared and said: "Believe it or not, I'll kill you right now" "Oh, is this what you call a fair trial" Seryosha shook his head fearlessly and mockingly, the reporters lost no time in recording this wonderful scene, Jalal did not press the trigger after all, he could not kill people directly in front of the eyes of so many reporters.
"Beneath the boys, there is the Soviet land.
We move forward and move more firmly. ” The Soviets in the audience suddenly remembered the neat singing, and Seryosha involuntarily began to sing, and all the Soviets present chanted, because that song was the song of the Soviet Airborne Forces. t1706231537:
