"The Afghan Air Force bombarded the Presidential Palace, which is a very serious incident. This shows that the Afghan Air Force has begun to be divided by the Afghan guerrillas. We must take strong measures to stop this division." Marshal Nikola Ogalkov said that his image in the president's mind has shrunk anyway. Nikola doesn't care if President Gorbachev continues to do so. He wants to tell the truth and express these ideas.

"Is that true?" Gorbachev said: "As the elites in the army, how did they be bought by the guerrillas? Can the guerrillas give them a good treatment better than the army?"

The guerrillas and Yaoyao were all hiding in the cave. If there were no support from external forces, they would have collapsed long ago. Therefore, it would be impossible to give a large amount of money to instigate the pilot. Although Gorbachev was not from a military background, he still looked at the problem thoroughly.

Speaking of this, Gorbachev stared at Nikola tightly, looking at how Nikola answered himself.

"This entry is a rebel who entered the army, but the top leaders of the Afghan Air Force were blinded," Nikola said.

Until now, he is still quibbling, just not wanting to withdraw his troops from Afghanistan. Gorbachev continued to ask: "So, under the current situation, can our white-souble army win in Afghanistan?"

"Yes!" Nikola said very fragilely: "As long as we mobilize another 50,000 troops to enter, mobilize 30 MiG-29 fighter jets, obtain air supremacy over Pakistan, and suppress the guerrillas who smuggle weapons from Pakistan. The final victory must belong to us."

Hearing Nikolai's words, Gorbachev's anger gradually rose. He suppressed his anger and said in a calm tone: "So, how long does it take? How much budget does it take?"

"In two years, two hundred billion rubles." Nicholas faced the tit-for-tat without any compromise.

"We have been in the Afghanistan war for nearly nine years. We have invested directly, which is already 50 billion rubles. We have suffered indirect losses, including resettlement of injured troops, pensions for dead troops, including production and construction, but we have to make ammunition at full capacity, etc., which will exceed 100 billion rubles." Gorbachev said: "Now, our country lives in debt every year. We cannot even supply sufficient bread on the shelves. We should save money and provide the army with such a war that has nothing to do with us? We have to invest another 20 billion rubles? Should we take out all the funds for exporting oil and throw them into Afghanistan to burn it?"

Hearing this, Yazov lowered his head. He knew that what the president said now was actually very correct. The Soviet Union, this huge empire, had entered old age and ended the war. Although it was difficult for them to accept emotionally, this was indeed a correct choice for the Soviet Union.

However, under this huge empire, a group of people who hold real power were unwilling to end the war. They continued to fight in Afghanistan for the sake of that false reputation and the so-called powerful empire.

"But now, even Pakistan is underestimating us. When we see that we want to withdraw our troops, we take the initiative to invade Afghan airspace. In this case, if we withdraw our troops, we can only show that we are cowardly." Nikola said.

Now, Gorbachev is convinced that there must be hidden information in this conflict with Pakistan, but he has no evidence that General Gromov in Afghanistan is not his confidant.

"General Secretary, emergency documents from Iraq." At this moment, the secretary hurried in.

Gorbachev wanted to say that he would remove Nikola's power and send him to the Dnieper River to retire, but he had not yet issued any words, so he had to swallow the words into his mouth for the time being and then pick up the documents.

After taking a look, he immediately frowned, and after he finished reading it, he gradually stretched out.

The military concealed one thing that two Su-22 fighter jets actually defected to Pakistan!

The fighter jet that bombed the Presidential Palace was reported only because this matter could not be kept in check, and the two Su-22 fighter jets were simply ignored. These things are very representative when they are linked together.

In other words, Afghanistan has begun to feel extremely disgusted with the Soviet troops. Not only those guerrillas, but also within the government forces, this trend has begun to surge.

Invasion of Afghanistan, I thought it was a piece of fat, but the current situation is self-destructive.

Defection or even turning against each other means that if the Soviet army continues to station there, it will face more dangers, which will strengthen Gorbachev's idea of ​​withdrawing troops from Afghanistan.

Only withdrew the troops is their most correct choice. Afghanistan is purely a bottomless pit.

Looking further down, he felt more comfortable because, at the invitation of the Soviet Union, Iraq's President Kusai went out to Pakistan in person, striving to make peace between Afghanistan and Pakistan.

However, the Pakistani government was very tough and rejected President Kusai's so-called apology from the Soviet Union. When the negotiations were about to come to a deadlock, the defection of the fighter jet occurred.

Although Pakistan did not agree to the Soviet Union's request, Pakistan finally agreed to return the two Su-22 fighter jets to the Soviet Union. Although the two pilots applied for political asylum and were protected by Pakistan, Pakistan's agreement to return the fighter jets was still a good result. If this were not persuaded by Kusai, it would have been absolutely impossible. Now it may have been sent to the United States for research.

Pakistan's proactive return of fighter jets is a sufficient gesture, which also represents Pakistan's practical actions to achieve peace between the two countries' borders.

Moreover, with this statement, we can block some incoming mouths, restrain our own air force, and prohibit friction on the border.

At the same time, we will carry out the withdrawal plan, gradually withdraw our troops, and stop this meaningless war! Looking at Nikola, Gorbachev knew that Nikola had power behind it, but he must complete this plan, all of this is for this country!

………The increasingly tense situation in Afghanistan has attracted the attention of the world. However, the preconceived impression is that it is the wrong Soviet Union, which is the Soviet invasion, which triggered this series of disputes. What makes people happy is that this matter has not developed in a worse direction. Afghanistan, including the Soviet Air Force, has begun to avoid getting close to the border between Afghanistan and Pakistan. The situation where the Soviet Union, who is most worried about, may strike Pakistani military bases, has not happened.

All signs indicate that the Soviet Union has begun to prepare for withdrawal.

Near Islandburg, Shakbari Hill.

Now, it is the end of 1987. A heavy snow fell a few days ago, and there was a vast white area everywhere.

In this season, the small hill park located on the top of the mountain welcomes many visitors.

This mountain is called Friendship Mountain because it is the place where many foreign leaders who visited Pakistan planted memorial trees. Since Prime Minister Zhou Enlai planted a wuzhu tree that symbolized China-Pakistan friendship here on February 21, 1964, many Chinese leaders who visited Pakistan have come here to plant memorial trees to express the deep friendship between Chinese and Pakistani people.

There are still countless white snowflakes on the treetops. Kusai looked at these trees, many of which were already thick.

"President Kusai, it's a pity that it's winter death now. Otherwise, you should have planted a tree here," said President Zia Hak.

"It's o, but I believe that our friendship tree between Iraq and Pakistan has been planted in our hearts," said Kusai.

Speaking of this, President Zia Haq smiled: "Yes, like China, Iraq is our closest friend in Pakistan. This article will be written into our white constitution."

"In order to enhance our friendship, and for the convenience of trade between us, I propose to build a railway from Baghdad to Islamabad. What do you think?" Kusai asked.

Building a railway? President Zia Hakk knew that convenient transportation would promote larger economic development, so building a railway is very beneficial for Pakistan. However, now it is necessary for the Pakistani government to put out funds to build a railway, because there is no budget, it may be difficult.

Because Pakistan has been secretly funding the liberation cause of Afghanistan's people, Pakistan's national expenditure is also very large.

"We in Iraq can guarantee it to make low-interest loans from Arab commercial banks, and repayments are repaid year by year by year by year by year after the railway is put into operation. What do you think?" Kusai asked.

Taking out loans to build roads and then relying on buying road money to pay off debts is a common move used by the great Eastern powers in later generations. This move caused the railways and highways of the great Eastern powers to develop rapidly, but later it became a bit deformed.

Hearing this, Zia Hak laughed. Iraq is really thoughtful, it’s good. It’s also good. Pakistan also has many mountains and road transportation, and it’s still not as convenient as railways.

As for the railway line from Baghdad to cross southern Persia, it was naturally funded by Iraq. The construction of this railway line is also strategically significant, allowing Iraq to better control the entire Persian Gulf coast in southern Persia.

As for the journey through the burial of Islanda, arrive

The railway is also necessary to negotiate with the Eastern powers, which is the future work.
