Perhaps it is because the guerrillas at the US base are not upright in their training, or because there are too many guerrillas training at the US base... I don't know if there are any guerrillas here who are training in new names over and over again.
This is not something I need to care about. I only know that not long after, there were batches of American equipment in Peshawar, which was obviously organized and planned.
But the Americans don't seem to stop this phenomenon... I don't know if it's because the United States has money and doesn't care about these things, or they can't stop it. I even believe that part of the reason for the United States is deliberately indulging in this phenomenon.
Appeared.
Why indulge it?
Because the Americans knew clearly... Although these weapons and equipment were "scamd" by drug dealers or guerrillas, drug dealers were at relatively low prices, because the purchasing power of Pakistan and Afghans
That's it, if you are at the normal price, I'm afraid that few people will be able to afford it.
So...who needs these American equipment? Of course it will not be the Soviets, nor will it be the Afghan political axe army... because they are equipped with ak74 or ak47, and bullets and parts are not universal, the Soviets will not
So stupid that I bought American equipment and entered my own troops to mess up my logistics.
Therefore, the person who will buy these weapons is undoubtedly the opposition, that is, the Afghan guerrillas who really need these weapons... On the other hand, these weapons will soon be transported to other places by weapon dealers, so the equipment is very good
It spread in Afghanistan soon.
This is a market effect... It was originally necessary for Americans or Pakistanis to transport these equipment to the Afghan guerrillas in batches, but now they do not need to take action because of the market, and even the speed of their spread is still
It will be much faster than hoped, and often fall into the hands of those who really need it.
Of course, we don’t have that strong ability to spread equipment like the Americans. In fact, we can’t spread even if we want to spread... Most of the weapons in our country are 56 and 56 and a half, and these equipment is not as good as others.
What about ak47!
I have to admit that the Americans are much more skilled in this regard than us, and it seems that it is precisely because of this point... The United States hopes to enrich the guerrillas as much as possible in the shortest time, so they put the training cycle
It was set very short, and they trained a thousand troops in each batch sometimes even more, and the training cycle was only one and a half months...
Simply put, it is only necessary to train at a US military base for one and a half months before you can go to the battlefield.
You can imagine what you can learn in a month and a half? It’s just learning to shoot, learn to maintain, and then know some basic tactical actions!
But I have different plans... The Americans are not something we can afford. It can be millions of dollars for casual use like them, so we should build an elite soldier honestly!
At the same time, we also have this kind of foundation... Hassan's guerrilla team is more chaotic... By Dust I mean there are few evildoers or addicts who do criminals...
What we say here is very rare... In fact, there are addicts in Hassan's troops, which is inevitable in an environment like Afghanistan... Life is difficult and the environment is harsh. Many people cannot see where their future is.
I know what hope there will be in the future. On the other hand... Islam also stipulates that they cannot harm their bodies and cannot commit suicide, so they can only use drugs to anesthetize themselves.
For this group of people, I firmly do not allow them to stay in the army... So I asked Hassan to send them to the refugee camp, and I would rather put them in the refugee camp to raise them.
"Why?" Hassan was a little confused about this: "They are men and can fight... They can also play a role in the battlefield!"
"They can indeed play a role in the battlefield!" I said, "But have you ever thought... the Soviets are richer than us and have more drugs than us... They can use it at any time as long as they want.
These things come to these warriors. Do you think warriors with drug addiction can resist these warriors?"
Hassan said nothing, so of course he knew what this thing was, and he knew that few people could stop this kind of **!
So we quickly reached a consensus on this point that neither the members who have joined or the members who are requested to join in the future cannot be related to drugs.
But even if I have the plan to train Hassan's troops for a long time, time will not allow it...
That day, Hassan's message came from the foot of the pigeon... Yes, the Afghan guerrillas were still using pigeons to deliver messages. I originally wanted to assign them a few radios, but considering that the Soviet Union's listening system was very complete...
…Just like the listening troops we encountered in Vietnam, Vietnam’s equipment was only provided by the Soviet Union.
Therefore, if the guerrillas were equipped with radio, they would probably harm them. On the contrary, the carrier pigeon was quite safe. Although the information he conveyed was slow and might not necessarily arrive, at least the Soviets could not listen.
arrive……
Therefore, in this era of increasing technology and in an era when everyone is comparing technology, suddenly a primitive method is used, and it makes people not know how to deal with it.
"Battleman Yang!" Hassan said to me with a note: "The Soviets are going to take action... This is the news from Kabul, and the Soviet army will soon launch a second major sweep!"
The news came from Kabul... This is also my job.
The reason why this work was carried out is that there were many men in the tribe who served in the army in the political and axe army... As mentioned earlier, due to the decline of agriculture and industry in Afghanistan, men who did not serve in the army would have to sell drugs, otherwise the whole family would have to be hungry
abdomen.
Most men in the Hassan tribe chose to join the army... This is thanks to Elder Abdul, who insisted on sending all the men who make a living in the village to join the army in order not to let the men in the village get in contact with drugs.
It is precisely because of this that there are still some tribes in the Zhengfu Army who did not come and urgently recall them... Compared with Zhengfu at this time, the Afghans were more willing to be loyal to their tribes, not to mention that the Soviet army still occupied them.
They took their hometown and drove their relatives out of the tribe.
Therefore, there is no problem in instigating these people, and it is basically no difficulty... This is also Hassan's idea, and his thinking is still in a state where one more person will have more strength.
Of course I wouldn't let him do this at this time... Just kidding, such a good spy doesn't know how to use it. Our guerrillas are not as powerful and equipment as the Soviet army. If you want to achieve something, you rely on information!
So we made a quick decision and sent a few people to contact us... After instigating them, we let them continue to stay in the Zhengfu Army and secretly spy on the information and contact us.
At this time, I felt like I was back in the War of Resistance Against Japan... When our army dealt with the Japanese, it often instigated the puppet army in this way and asked them to provide information for our army.
"When is the exact time to sweep?" I asked.
"The specific time has not been decided yet!" Hassan replied: "It may start in a few days because the Soviet army has entered a state of preparation!"
I couldn't help but frown. The last time the Soviet army swept was in February, and that was their first swept... The purpose was to annihilate the guerrillas hiding in the mountains. There is only April now... that is,
The Soviet Union started its second sweep just two months later, and we can also know that the Soviet Union is in a hurry to resolve the battle in Afghanistan and then free up his hands to do something else.
"Captain Yang!" Hassan asked, "Are we supposed to do something?"
"What does it mean?" I asked.
"Go back to Afghanistan!" Hassan said: "Fighting with the Soviets... We have lost the city and can no longer let them control the mountainous areas! Otherwise, we will not be able to go back!"
I understand what Hassan means... Afghanistan's mountainous areas are everywhere that are easy to defend and difficult to attack. If the Soviet army still uses their way of occupying the city to steadily, that is, they will send troops to garrison and then slowly advance...
I'm afraid that the Afghan guerrillas will not even have a foothold.
I didn't say anything... This is not something I was worried about, because I knew that the Soviet army could not occupy the mountainous areas in just one time, twice sweeps. The Soviets failed to gain a advantage after several years!
What I was thinking about was what Hassan said... Should I do something?
On the one hand, Hassan's army has only been training for more than a month. Although they have made rapid progress, they still have not reached the level I expected.
On the other hand... Hassan's army needs a victory to boost morale and gain reputation.
My idea is this... Our mission is to help the Afghan guerrillas in large quantities and strive to drag the Soviet army into the quagmire of Afghanistan. But now... Hassan's team of only 500 people is obviously not enough
.
Then, if you want to expand your influence, or to make more guerrillas believe us, you naturally need to fight a battle, and you still have to win a beautiful victory to make all Afghan guerrillas or want to join the guerrillas.
All Afghans know our troops.
But will I be a little too irritated to do this?
This is like a double-edged sword. We are different from American bases... American bases are training a large number of people. Even if they fail, no one will say anything about them. But we only train this unit. Once we fail, we will undoubtedly be able to do so.
Adding insult to injury.
After thinking for a while, I finally felt the need to fight a battle to establish authority, not only to establish authority among the Soviets, but also to establish authority among the guerrillas, but also to establish authority among the American bases... Let everyone know,
We are a force that cannot be underestimated! Only in this way can we gain a firm foothold here and a firm foothold in the hearts of the Afghan people! (To be continued.)
