Chapter 60 The Wakhan Corridor

PS: Thank you ※Shangshu Li Bu※, gouride BMW, Tiger Crystal, Tears Falling the World 5, Four friends for their rewards, thank you for your voting support!

"His instructor, this battle is so exciting!" Osama said to Mhamad: "We will completely destroy the Soviet air base with those boxes!"

Not only Osama, everyone's face was filled with a smile, even if the wounded Durani was grinning and enduring the pain, he was also happy.

Last time, everyone was at risk of their lives and almost went to see Allah there. This time, the distance was far away and easily covered the Soviet air base with those things. Thinking of the scene of several rockets flying over, Durani couldn't help but feel happy.

This is the real battle! This is a turning point, a turning point in the military struggle against the Soviet invaders!

"His instructor, why don't we take rockets and turn a hundred kilometers of mountain roads to sneak attack Bagram's air base! It's the Soviets' large air base, fighter jets, bombers, helicopters, everything, dozens of them!" Dulani said.

"Yes, your Excellency Instructor, let's go and attack Bagram Air Force Base!" The rest of the people agreed.

Mhamad looked at these people, Hwaja, who had just used a sniper rifle to deal with several Soviet soldiers who came down from the BMP infantry fighting vehicle, and stopped their encirclement of themselves. At this time, he was also looking at Mhamad with eager eyes. As long as Mhamad gave his order, he would execute without hesitation.

Several victories made the guerrillas a little awkward. They rode on horseback and walked on the rugged mountain road. Mhamad said: "This tactic cannot be replicated. We attacked once and easily succeeded. The second time, it was not so easy. I wonder if you have ever thought about it. If the Soviets took off a female deer and patrolled the airport at that time, it would have caused us a lot of trouble. How could we easily set up those rockets?"

"We have poisonous stings!" Aga said, "If there is a female deer, we will beat it down!"

"The stinger is not omnipotent." Mhamad said: "We use the stinger, and it is just a sneak attack. If the female deer in the sky finds us, we will have no chance to shoot the stinger, and will be killed by the female deer's rocket."

This was the beginning of the war. The Soviet female deer flew freely in the sky without any opponents. When the Soviets discovered that the female deer was facing the threat of poisonous stings, they would soon install infrared bait bombs for the female deer, and the pilot would strengthen their defense. If they wanted to shoot down again, it would be easier than now.

Armed helicopters are always natural enemies of infantry. They face the female deer head-on and end up miserably.

Mhamad knew very well that this attack would soon let the Soviets know that the current mission was not to continue to attack Bagram, but to return to the mountains.

This attack completely hit the Soviets' ribs. With the Soviets' character, they would probably send thousands of troops to enter the mountains to encircle and suppress their own guerrillas. They would not be willing to break up their own guerrillas completely.

The last time the two test pilots were killed, the Soviets had gritted their teeth. This time, they brought their base again, and the Soviets' anger would completely burn to the mountains in the north.

"Go back to our base, set up secret whistles on various important hills, ready to welcome the Soviets' sweeps." Mhamad said: "This time you have also seen the power of rockets. After returning, everyone must learn the aiming and launching of rockets."

"Yes." Everyone replied.

The guerrillas are very respectful to Mhamad. This kind of heartfelt respect is not only because Mhamad leads them to win battles, but also because Mhamad teaches them a lot of guerrilla warfare skills, which is what they most desire.

Seeing the power of this rocket, everyone was 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. Afghan people were watching from all hills. An ordinary shepherd might be a guerrilla intelligence officer. They were local snakes here, and they could not hide the turmoil.

The guerrillas have horses again. Once they find that the Soviets dispatched their troops and entered the mountainous areas, they will soon get news. No matter how many Soviets come, they will gradually become smaller and eventually disappear. This is the power of guerrilla warfare!

When he returned to the base, Mhamad was waiting for it all the time, but he never waited for the arrival of the Soviets.

This made Mhamad wonder what the Soviets were thinking?

Autumn is about to pass. Afghanistan, located in the plateau, will be extremely cold in winter, and heavy snow will cover the entire land. At the coldest time, it is enough to be below 40 degrees Celsius. Even the Soviets born in cold places have to stay in the base and are unwilling to come out. The locals in Afghanistan are barefoot immortals. In such cold weather, they dare to walk barefoot in the snow. Moreover, the clothes they wear in winter and summer are the same, with long robes and headscarves, and there is no extra cold-proof clothes.

Afghanistan will not fight in winter. Even the Taliban in later generations will not launch an offensive in winter when they fight the most fiercely. Winter is the season for rest and recuperation.

Did the Soviets wait for the next spring before launching an attack? Let them be free and happy?

While Mhamad was very puzzled, he ordered the intelligence personnel lurking in Jalalabadri to move around. With the help of Osama's funds, the intelligence agencies under Dana began to expand. Several women sneaked into the headquarters to wash clothes, and more information could be obtained.

Even so, nothing was found. In the military base of Jalalabad, there was no sign of gathering soldiers and various combat preparation materials were not continued to be stored. This means that the Soviets would not launch a large-scale military attack on the mountainous areas for the time being.

Could it be that the arrival of winter made the Soviets' logistics supply unable to keep up, and they had to break their teeth and swallowed to watch themselves blow up their air base? Mhamad could no longer find any other reason, maybe this was the only reason.

Mhamad looked at his guerrilla team and was training vigorously. After a winter, their combat skills would become more skillful and various weapons would be used proficiently. At that time, the Soviets would have to pay a greater price to encircle themselves in the mountains.

These days, the size of the guerrillas has further expanded, with more than 100 people already in possession, and weapons have begun to appear to be a little short of them. The United States has agreed to help the guerrillas replenish a batch of weapons.

I heard that this batch of newly arrived weapons was purchased from Eastern countries, the Type 56 submachine guns, which are very similar to the AKM rifle, and 107 rockets. It is said that several multi-tube launch vehicles were also brought in. Mhamad is very much looking forward to the arrival of these weapons.

A heavy snow was blowing, covering the entire Central Asia region, and was covered with silver everywhere.

"Dang, dang." There was a bell hanging under the donkey's neck, which rang from time to time. The donkey's hooves stepped on the snow and stepped out of deep pits after pit.

"This is really a damn ghost weather!" James kept cursing as he pulled the donkey forward and looked at the dozens of donkeys in front and behind, and then at the undulating mountains on both sides.

If you look at it from the sky, this is a valley winding down between two huge mountains around it. Within a few hundred kilometers, there is only such a narrow passage.

This is a narrow area from Badakhshang Province in northeastern Afghanistan to Xinjiang, China. It is actually a canyon formed by the southern section of the Pamir Plateau and the northern section of the Hindu Kush Mountains during the orogeny process. The Wakhan Corridor is 300 kilometers long east-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 Eastern countries. In Eastern countries, it is also called the Pamir Road.

From ancient times, this place was a bridge between the East and the West. The Silk Road passed through here and was also a necessary path for eastern countries to go west.

There are mountains on both sides, and only this narrow area in the middle can make people walk. In summer, it is still a pleasure to blow the cold wind in the mountains. But now, such a cold weather is simply deadly.

This was the last supply before the mountain was closed. When the road was opened next year, the Soviets should launch an attack on the guerrillas in the mountains of Afghanistan, so this supply must be carried out.

The US military satellite observed the situation of the field airport in northern Jalalabad, which had been completely destroyed, and the guerrillas under Mhamad were launched.

The senior American leaders were very excited, so this second operation to support the Afghan guerrillas began.

The United States is taking risks when providing stinger missiles and pottery missiles to the Afghan guerrillas. After all, the accidental fire of the two superpowers is likely to trigger wars. This is just a war for agents. Moreover, the United States' weapons are expensive, and transported from the United States will increase costs.

Therefore, the United States secretly contacted Eastern countries. Now, Eastern countries are in a border conflict with Vietnam. They naturally hate the Soviet Union, which is supporting Vietnam. Both sides have common interests. Therefore, the United States paid money to purchase weapons from the East and transported them to Afghanistan through the Wakhan Corridor, which became the best choice.
