We basically didn't stop and rest that night, and we never ambushed the helicopter again... On the one hand, it was because the Soviets would not be fooled again, and on the other hand, it was because we knew that armed helicopters were not easy to deal with, and more
What's more... if we kept ambushing along the way, the Soviet army was not foolish. They could soon infer the direction of our movement from our route.
For these reasons... we only do two things on the way to retreat, one is to march, and the other is to camouflage when the helicopter is approaching.
Hassan and his group are very good at this set of things... They even have ways to hide the mules in time and calm them down.
So as time goes by, the frequency of Soviet helicopters appears less and less... In fact, it cannot be said that the frequency of helicopters is less, but it should be said that because we escaped farther, the range they need to search will be more and more.
Becoming bigger and bigger.
I think these helicopter pilots hated us to the core... They were performing missions outside because they participated in the sweeping the day before, and when they were about to rest in the evening, they had to go out again because we fought this annihilation battle...
In this way, they still had two helicopters, one was destroyed and the other was injured.
This loss is not a trivial matter for the Soviet army... Although this is just an armed helicopter, its unit price is as high as 5.5 million US dollars... When we think of the more than one million US dollars we snatched from the pirates, we were
It was like a mountain of gold, and just now, I personally blew a helicopter worth 5.5 million US dollars into scrap iron, and I felt a little regretful...
Then when it was almost dawn, we finally stopped... Although we were already a distance from Kabul, we still dared not march during the day... The Soviet Union had spy satellites, reconnaissance aircraft, helicopters... marched during the day
Nothing elsewhere to seek death!
Hassan laughed as soon as he hid in his hiding place.
"Battlefield Commander Yang! Fighting happily!" Hassan said: "Now I finally believe that Allah brought you to our country to save us! The Soviet army we annihilated this night... I am afraid that it is better than the national guerrillas.
There were more Soviet people annihilated! And one helicopter was destroyed... Do you know? This is the first Soviet helicopter we destroyed. It is also the first helicopter that the Soviet army has destroyed since entering Afghanistan!"
"Hmm?" I was quite surprised by this sentence: "You mean... this kind of armed helicopter has never been destroyed before?"
"Of course not!" Hassan shook his head: "Not only did not... the guerrillas also suffered numerous casualties under such helicopters, so they called this helicopter 'cobra'!"
This nickname is quite appropriate... The two wings used by the armed helicopter to mount weapons are like the wide neck of a cobra when they are about to attack.
Then I frowned again... This shows a problem. Both us and the Afghan guerrillas lack weapons to deal with this kind of armed helicopter. In other words, this will cause us to fall into a great passive position on the battlefield.
It can almost be said that as long as the Soviets can discover the target, they can basically destroy the target... Of course, this must be with good vision during the day.
So, we should be glad that the Soviet army did not have many helicopters in Afghanistan... but this does not seem to be luck. It is caused by the poor logistics supply capacity of the Soviet Union in Afghanistan.
"Discover the enemy situation!" At this moment, a sentry reported to me through a walkie-talkie, and I quickly passed on the order of "attention and concealment".
Then a Mi24 appeared in the sky... Because it was daytime, the Soviets began to boldly start flying alone again!
In fact, this is not just because of the daytime, but because the pilot of Mi24 has not had a rest for a day and night. In order to continue tracking, the number of flights has to be reduced to allow the pilot to rest in batches.
The rice 24 flew in the sky for a while and stopped in an open area a few miles away. Then, seven or eight Soviet and government troops emerged from the helicopter... because our habitat was high,
So they can easily distinguish them from their uniforms.
It is obvious that... the Soviets went to the ground to search for our traces. And the government forces they brought... don't think about it, they are Afghans who are familiar with the terrain of this area or tracking masters.
I am not worried about this, because our troops are not a mob... As a member of the synthetic battalion, we have learned to track for a long time, of course we also know how to track counter-track, not to mention that the airflow that the helicopters had already been stirred up before landing
Blow out the clues on the ground.
On the other hand... Afghanistan has strong winds and sand, and it takes less than half an hour to see a deep footprint. So I believe that those Soviet troops will not gain anything.
What surprised me was that... this armed helicopter is not only equipped with strong equipment and excellent protection... Now I know that it can carry infantry!
Later I found out... The full name of Mi24 is an armed transport helicopter, which means that it can not only fight, but also carry 8 fully armed infantrymen to quickly send them to the battlefield... Of course, the number of infantrymen is
A little less. This little force is difficult to play a role in ordinary battlefields, but if it is a special combat... this guy is a magical weapon!
This idea made me have the urge to let the soldiers rush down and snatch the helicopter... but this was just a thought. Because I knew it was impossible to do this... First of all, the helicopter kept waiting to fly
Status, we just appeared, it was afraid it would take off. Secondly, no one of us could drive a helicopter... Even if it was snatched, it would be useless. The most important thing is that it is still during the day. The result of doing so will only expose us without any
Survived.
So I could only watch the Soviet troops return to the cabin and fly back into the air with the sound of "huh" spiral slurry gradually moving away.
One thing I have to admit is... Although we all fight from the battlefield, we have no experience in dealing with the enemy's air power... Of course, this is because there are no fighter jets on the Vietnam battlefield... Whether it is the Vietnamese ghost
Whether we are not using air power, we have almost no air force now.
If you really want to say that you have any experience, it will be the battle last night.
This made me determined that after returning to the base, I must find an effective way to deal with the Soviet Air Force.
