Chapter fifty-ninth one hundred and eight divisions

Military aircraft are all monsters that drink oil, and can consume tons of fuel at a cost of consuming, while air force bases need to store a large amount of fuel.

It is too dangerous to place it directly on the ground. Except for the tanker truck, fuel is stored underground.

The T-8 attack aircraft is about to be officially finalized, and the first time it entered the base in Jalalabad, so the base here stores more fuel to prepare for the arrival of the new attack aircraft. As a result, hundreds of tons of fuel were ignited.

If it were just a rocket attack, the airport here would have the possibility of repair after the attack. Now, the fuel was detonated, the entire base was completely destroyed in the violent explosion of fuel, and all the lower geological structures of the entire base had changed, and the here had been completely destroyed.

Moreover, as fuel is detonated, there are seas of fire everywhere, and it is only a matter of time before the ammunition stored in the arsenal is detonated.

Mhamad returned to his own people, turned his head to look at the fire everywhere, and was very satisfied with the results of today.

Originally, Mhamad was still doubting the effect of these twenty rockets, after all, it was only 107mm caliber and had limited power. After the second explosion, the effect was too satisfying to Mhamad.

Mhamad turned over his horse's back and waved to his subordinates. The entire team quickly disappeared into the field, leaving only the horse's hoof prints.

Thirty minutes later, Jalalabad's troops rushed from the city. What appeared in their eyes was still the sky full of fire and smoke. The explosion of ammunition had passed, and the entire air base was completely in ruins.

Facing the scene in front of him, the commander of the 117th Regiment of the 108th Division of the 40th Army, Colonel Serge looked serious.

This is his defense area, and those damn guerrillas actually destroyed the airport! This is a military base, the place with the most tight defense!

Now, the entire Afghan area has been pacified, and only a small group of Afghan guerrillas are operating, which is not afraid at all. On the surface, Afghanistan is firmly in the hands of the Soviet army, but the bombing of the military airport in front of him shows that the Afghan guerrillas have formed a very powerful force. They dare to come to fight the airport today and fight to Jalalabad tomorrow!

This is absolutely not allowed!

"Call Ilyich here!" Sherge said gritting his teeth.

This place was attacked by guerrillas, and the base commander Ilyic bears the greatest responsibility!

"Report, Ilyic has died gloriously. In command of the tower, Lord Ilyic has been burned to death." After a long time, a guard beside him said.

Ilyic was dead? Serge was stunned. The place was attacked by guerrillas, with heavy losses. More than a dozen aircraft, especially the Il-76 transport aircraft, which contained the elite KGB troops, as well as the guards and ground crews. Moscow didn't know how angry it would be. Even if Ilyic was alive, he would not escape the trial of the Military Law Department when he returned. If he died, he could leave something for his family, such as a hero's badge.

He would be taken back to Moscow and tried when he died, and he would be portrayed as a hero, defending the air base and fighting bravely, so that he could cover up the incompetence of the Soviet army.

He was dead and was relaxed all over, and the troubles here fell on him.

"Report, the division commander Major General Kurikov is flying to Jalalabad from the Bagram Division headquarters and is expected to arrive in Jalalabad in half an hour." At this moment, the correspondent reported to Sergei.

The division commander came over! After an attack at the air force base here, the division commander immediately flew from the division headquarters, showing that he valued it very much! As soon as Serge knew that he had to find out the truth here within half an hour and report it to the division commander. Otherwise, in the rage of the division commander, even if he pushed all his faults on Ilyich.

In the sky, three helicopters made a rumbling sound. Two in front and behind are Mi-24 female deer helicopters painted as eagles. The weapons mounts on both sides are full of rockets and missiles. This time, they are responsible for escort missions. Under the protection of these two helicopters, a Mi-8 medium helicopter is flying.

Amid the rumbling sound, a middle-aged man in the cabin turned his sharp eyes to the land below, barren land, mountains, and donkey carts that can be seen occasionally. There is no economic benefit here, the only thing that is, it is military significance. This allows the Soviet Union to obtain a passage to the Indian Ocean south, breaking the Americans' encirclement in Western Europe in one fell swoop!

Wrinkles began to appear on his face. As the commander of the 108th Division, he had a strategic vision and knew specific tactical command. He led the 108th Division to enter Kabul first, and then transferred to Bagram.

Bagram is fifty kilometers north of Kabul and eleven kilometers south of Carykar, the capital of Parwan Province. Here, there is a large air force base. The Soviet Union used it as its main military base and a runway of more than three thousand meters. Many military supplies were transported from here. At the same time, the division headquarters of the 108th Division was also established here. After it was acquired by the US military, it began to serve as an important military base, accounting for half of the US U.S. troops in Afghanistan.

In contrast, the airport in the north of Jalalabad was just a small frontline airport. At first, there was no runway, and it could only take off and land helicopters. It was not until later that the construction of a simple runway began.

Kurikov's eyes looked into the distance, and under the afterglow of the sunset, blue smoke continued to emerge from the ground in the distance.

"Fly over and take a look," Kurikov said, knowing that it was the air base in Jalalabad.

The fire has been put out, the smoke is still rising, and there are ruins everywhere. The most conspicuous one is the wreckage of the huge Il-76. Seeing this, Kurikov felt a tingling pain in his heart.

There were more than a hundred elite soldiers transported on it! They were the elite of the KGB. As a result, they died on the plane before they even set foot on the land of Afghanistan. If they had known it, they would have strongly recommended that they land in Bagram and then come to Jalalabad in infantry fighting vehicles.

Kurikov suddenly couldn't control his emotions and his nose began to feel sore.

"Major General..." Seeing Kurikov's eyes turned red and then two lines of hot tears came out, the chief of staff of the division belgrad on the side was surprised. Why did the division commander look like this? As a general, even if all the soldiers were killed, they could not shed tears, bleeding, sweat or cry!

"It's okay." Kurikov tried to calm himself down, but his son's tall and handsome figure kept appearing in front of him.

Before the transport plane arrived, the information of the A unit was passed to the 108th Division to facilitate cooperation with each other. Kurikov saw the name of his son from above, which was the commander of the A unit this time!

The KGB is top secret. This is the first time that Kurikov knows his son. Krimikov is already a lieutenant colonel officer in the Soviet Union and has experienced many battles!

And now, with the fall of this transport plane, he went to another world, and his soul had risen to heaven...

Therefore, when he heard the news of the attack here, Kurikov immediately decided to come here from the division headquarters!

"Land to the airport." Kurikov said suddenly.

"Major General, this place is dangerous. I have just been attacked by the Afghan guerrillas. If you land here, you may not be able to fully guarantee your safety." Belgrad said.

"Afghan guerrillas have already escaped after the attack, so why would they continue to stay here?" Kurikov said: "As the commander of the 108th Division, I have a responsibility for this matter, and I must come to the scene to see it."

Kurikov's orders cannot be violated. The helicopter began to turn and head towards the airport. A female deer helicopter first circled around the airport, and another female deer landed. The infantry squad inside came down and blocked the surroundings. The Mi-8 helicopter landed.

Watching the Mi-8 helicopter landing, Serge knew that the division commander had arrived as soon as he was about to return to Jalalabad to wait for the division commander's arrival, but he didn't expect that the division commander would actually come here!

The airflow of the rotor blew the earth, the yellow dust flew around, the cabin door opened, and Kurikov, with a serious face, walked down.

"Report to the commander of the division, the commander of the 117th Regiment, Sergei came to greet him." Sergei saluted and looked at the serious Commander of the Division.

Kurikov just casually returned a military salute and asked Serge: "Why are there attacks from guerrillas here? Why does such a huge loss cause? Has the investigation been clear?"

If the division commander had arrived five minutes earlier, Serge would not be able to answer. Just now, he found a survivor, learned about the past, and carefully investigated the situation around him, and determined the past.

"The base's defense is completely free, and it is the safest within five kilometers." Serge said: "This time, the Afghan guerrillas attacked us at eight kilometers."

Eight kilometers? Kurikov asked: "How is it possible? Are they using cannons?"

"It's not a cannon, it's a 107 rocket, it carried out a cover strike." Serge said: "In the Vietnamese battlefield, the Vietnamese used 107 rockets to attack the US military. Now, this method is the same. I suspect that the Afghan guerrillas have been helped by a certain country in the East."

107 Rocket? With Sergyi, Kurikov followed to the simple launch platform. At this time, the heat flow there had been terrible burning by the rocket when it was launched.
