"Your Excellency, instructor, this battle is so exciting!" Osama said to Mhamad: "We just used those few boxes of things to completely destroy the Soviet air base!"
Not just Osama, everyone's face was filled with smiles, even the injured Durrani, who was grinning and enduring the pain, was also happy.
During the last sneak attack on the air force base, everyone risked their lives and almost met God there. But this time, they were far away, and they could easily cover the Soviets with just those gadgets. At the air force base, Durrani couldn't help but feel happy when he thought of the sight of those rockets flying past.
This is the real battle! This was a turning point in the military struggle against the Soviet invaders!
"Sir, instructor, why don't we take rockets and go up a hundred kilometers of mountain roads to sneak attack on the air force base in Bagram! That's the Soviets' large air base there, with fighter jets, bombers, helicopters, everything. There are dozens of them!" Durrani said.
"Yes, instructor, let's go to Bagram Air Force Base for a sneak attack!" Several other people agreed.
Mhammad looked at these people. Khwaja, who had just used a sniper rifle to kill several Soviet soldiers who got off the BMP infantry fighting vehicle and prevented them from outflanking him, was also looking at him with longing eyes. Following Mhamad, as long as Mhamad gives an order, he will execute it without hesitation.
Several victories made the guerrillas a little arrogant. Riding on horseback and walking on the rugged mountain road, Hamad said: "This tactic cannot be replicated. We conducted a sneak attack and succeeded easily. , the second time, it will not be so easy. I don’t know if you have ever thought about it. If the Soviets took off a Hind and patrolled around the airport, it would have caused us a lot of trouble. How could we easily set it up again? Those rockets?"
"We have stingers!" said Aga. "If there is a doe, we will knock it off!"
"The stinger is not omnipotent." Mhammad said: "When we use the stinger, it is just a sneak attack. If the female deer in the sky discovers us, then we will have no chance to shoot the stinger, and we will be hit by the female deer's rocket. The bullet was taken out."
This was the early days of the war. The Soviet female deer was flying freely in the sky without any opponent. When the Soviets discovered that the female deer faced the threat of stingers, they would soon install infrared decoys on the female deer. Moreover, pilots will strengthen their defenses, and it will not be as easy as it is now to shoot down again.
Armed helicopters have always been the natural enemy of infantry. If they confront the Hind head-on, the outcome will be disastrous.
Hamad knew very well that this attack would soon let the Soviets know that the current task was not to continue the sneak attack on Bagram, but to return to the mountains.
This attack has completely hit the Soviets in the ribs. With the character of the Soviets, I am afraid they will send thousands of troops into the mountains to encircle and suppress their guerrillas. If they do not completely destroy their guerrillas, They would not be willing to break up.
The killing of two test pilots last time had already made the Soviets grit their teeth with hatred. This time, they killed their base in one fell swoop. The Soviets' anger will completely burn to the mountains to the north.
"Go back to our base and set up hidden sentries on various important hills to prepare for the Soviet raids." Mhamad said: "This time you have also seen the power of rockets. After we go back, everyone must learn this Rocket aiming and launching techniques.”
"Yes." everyone replied.
The guerrillas all have great respect for Mhammad. This heartfelt respect is not only because Mhammad led them to victory, but also because Mhammad taught them many guerrilla warfare skills. This is what they desire most.
Seeing the power of this rocket, everyone is thinking about how to master this weapon as soon as possible. This is one of the three magic weapons of the guerrillas!
Mhamad was very cautious. There were Afghan people on every hilltop standing guard. An ordinary sheepherder could be an intelligence agent for the guerrillas. They are the local snakes here, and no matter what happens, they can't hide it from them.
The guerrillas now have horses again. Once they find out that the Soviets are sending troops into the mountains, they will soon get the news. No matter how many Soviets come, they will gradually become smaller and eventually disappear after entering the mountains. This is guerrilla warfare. The power!
Back at the base, Mhamad had been waiting. Unexpectedly, the days passed by, but he never waited for the arrival of the Soviets.
This made Mhamad start to wonder, what was the Soviets' plan?
Autumn is about to pass. Afghanistan, which is located in the plateau area, will be extremely cold in winter, with heavy snow covering the entire land. At the coldest time, it can reach minus 40 degrees Celsius. Even the Soviets who were born in a cold place have to stay in In the base, I don’t want to come out. The locals in Afghanistan are all barefoot masters. They dare to walk barefoot in the snow in such a cold weather. Moreover, they wear the same clothes in winter and summer, robes and turbans, and there is no extra clothing to keep out the cold.
There will be no fighting in Afghanistan in winter. Even when the Taliban in later generations fight the most fiercely, they will not launch offensives in winter. Winter is the season for recuperation.
Do the Soviets have to wait until the spring of the following year to launch an attack? Just let him have his way?
While Muhammad was very puzzled, he ordered the intelligence personnel lurking in Jalalabad to move around. With the help of Osama's funds, the intelligence agency led by Dana began to expand. Several women sneaked into the headquarters to wash clothes, and more intelligence could be obtained.
Even so, there was still nothing to be gained. There was no sign of soldiers gathering in the military base in Jalalabad, and various war preparations were not stored any more, which meant that the Soviets would not launch a large-scale military offensive against the mountainous area for the time being.
Could it be that the arrival of winter made the Soviets' logistics supply unable to keep up, so they had to grit their teeth and swallow their anger while watching him bomb their air base? Muhammad could no longer find any other reason, perhaps it could only be this reason.
Muhammad looked at his guerrillas, who were training vigorously. After a winter, their combat skills would be more sophisticated and they would be proficient in using various weapons. Then, if the Soviets came to the mountains to encircle them again, they would have to pay a greater price.
These days, the size of the guerrillas has further expanded, with more than a hundred people, and weapons are beginning to be somewhat short. The United States has agreed to help the guerrillas replenish a batch of weapons.
It is said that this batch of newly arrived weapons was purchased from Eastern countries, including the Type 56 submachine gun, which is very similar to the AKM rifle, and the 107 rocket. It is said that several multi-barrel launch vehicles have also been obtained. Muhammad is very much looking forward to the arrival of this batch of weapons.
A heavy snow fell, covering the entire Central Asian region, and everywhere was covered with silver.
"Dangdang, dangdang." There was a bell hanging under the donkey's neck, ringing from time to time, and the donkey's hooves stepped on the snow, stepping out one deep pit after another.
"What a damned hell of weather!" James kept cursing as he pulled his donkey forward in the snow, looking at the dozens of donkeys in front and behind, and the rolling mountains on both sides.
If you look from the sky, this is a valley winding down between two huge mountain ranges. There is only such a narrow passage within hundreds of kilometers around.
This is a narrow strip of land from Badakhshan Province in northeastern Afghanistan to Xinjiang, China. In fact, it is a canyon formed by the collision between the southern section of the Pamir Plateau and the northern section of the Hindu Kush Mountains during the mountain-building process. The Wakhan Corridor is 300 kilometers long from east to west in Afghanistan. To the east of the narrow Wakhan Corridor, the border between Afghanistan and the Eastern countries is more than 90 kilometers, and it also extends more than 100 kilometers in the Eastern countries. In the Eastern countries, it is also called the Pamir Ancient Road.
Since ancient times, this place has been a bridge connecting the East and the West. The Silk Road passes through here, and it is also the only way for Eastern countries to go west.
There are high mountains on both sides, and only the narrow strip in the middle is walkable. In summer, it is a kind of enjoyment to feel the cold wind in the mountains, but now, such cold weather is simply fatal.
This is the last supply before the mountain is closed. When the road is open next year, the Soviets will launch an attack on the guerrillas in the Afghan mountains, so this supply must be carried out.
The US military satellite observed the situation of the field airport in the north of Jalalabad, which has been completely destroyed. The guerrillas under the leadership of Muhammad launched this attack.
The US top brass was very excited, so the second operation to support the Afghan guerrillas was launched.
The United States is risky in providing Stinger missiles and TOW missiles to the Afghan guerrillas. After all, the accidental firing of the two superpowers is likely to cause war. This is just a proxy war. Moreover, the cost of US weapons is expensive, and shipping them from the US mainland will increase the cost.
Therefore, the United States secretly contacted the Eastern countries. Now, the Eastern countries are in a border conflict with Vietnam. Naturally, they hate the Soviet Union, which supports Vietnam. Both sides have common interests. Therefore, the United States pays to buy weapons from the East and transports them to Afghanistan through the Wakhan Corridor. This is the best choice.
The weapons from the East are cheap and powerful, just right for the Afghan guerrillas to use. However, James, as the direct person in charge, is not so willing.
