"Battery Commander!" Zhao Jingping reported to me: "The Fourth Pass has been lost, and the Soviet army is continuing to enter the Third Pass!"
"Now it seems..." the instructor pointed to several mountain passes on the map and said, "It may be difficult for us to seal the Soviet army in the mountain passes... If the Soviet devils fought their best, their combat effectiveness should not be underestimated...
In addition, their equipment is more advanced than ours, so I think they will stop when they see it better?"
The instructor's words also make some sense... Strictly speaking, it is not very important for us to wipe out the Soviet army in the Xigeo Valley.
First of all, our strategic goal has been achieved... The Soviet army's plan to take down the Xigeo Valley has failed, and it has been very badly defeated. Under this premise, it will become meaningless to encircle and annihilate the Soviet army, especially
In Afghanistan.
You should know that the Soviet army had only 100,000 troops in Afghanistan, while the entire Soviet army was as huge as ours... and millions were also.
The reason why the Soviet army sent only 100,000 people in Afghanistan was entirely due to international pressure and logistics supply restrictions... Now all countries in the world are calling on the Soviet Union to withdraw troops from Afghanistan. Even if the Soviet government can withstand the pressure and not withdraw troops, it is also
It is not going to continue to increase troops, which is likely to be regarded as a disregard for the international community. On the other hand, Afghanistan's poor logistics can barely maintain the supply of 100,000 Soviet troops and 100,000 Afghan government troops.
Renewing troops to Afghanistan is not only not helpful to the battle situation, but may make things worse and worse.
In this case... for the Soviet government, if the Soviet army has more deaths in Afghanistan, send more people from the country to fill 100,000 people. In other words, no matter how much we kill, the Soviet Union in Afghanistan is
The army will always remain at around 100,000 people. Therefore, even if we successfully encircle and annihilate the Soviet army... it will not help the war in Afghanistan, nor will it help the Sigeo Valley. On the contrary, in the process of encircle and annihilate
It is very likely that we will hurt our vitality, and it may also cause the Soviet army to plant deep hatred for us, and we must get rid of our Xijieo Valley soon!
"Or..." Seeing that I didn't say anything, the instructor continued to persuade me: "Let's just put the Yamaguchi... Just teach them a lesson when the Soviet army escaped!"
"It is necessary to let go!" I said, "It is meaningless to kill a few more Soviet troops, but I feel that I can't let them go so easily... The reason is very simple. If you let them go easily now, you will be
It is very likely that they misunderstand that our army is unable to block the Soviet offensive, and this will not take long... They will attack the Sigeo Valley again!"
"The battalion commander means..." The instructor was a little puzzled when he listened to my words.
"We want them to know that we are fully capable of sealing them in the valley!" I said, "and then let them go if they have the conditions... This is not only a warning and threat to the enemy. It can also be given to Xi.
The Jao Valley strives for some substantial benefits!”
The instructor nodded and smiled, "You are an expert in this regard. Of course I will not have any objections, let it go... I will support it with all my strength!"
"Pass the order!" I turned around and said to Zhao Jingping: "Order the No. 3 mountain pass to defend... No matter what method is used, we must buy half an hour of preparation time for our army, and at the same time order the artillery force and anti-aircraft machine guns in other valleys.
The troops moved to the high ground on both sides of the Pass No. 2 and No. 02... They must arrive at the destination within half an hour and build fortifications, and prepare to block the Soviet army!"
"Yes!" Zhao Jingping responded and conveyed my order through the walkie-talkie.
My solution is very simple, which is to use Pass No. 3 to delay time so that our army's main force can gather in Valley No. 02... You must know that the Pass is only a few hundred meters wide, if we can gather enough mortars... Then
As long as the shells are enough, the mountain pass can be blocked with just a mortar. No matter it is a tank, an armored vehicle, or an infantryman... If you want to break out, you have to let the mortar explode.
Say it again.
Among them, the Soviet helicopters may be a little troublesome... But the problem is that there are only six Soviet helicopters now. Not to mention that the pilots of these six helicopters have been exhausted for more than ten hours of continuous combat. These six helicopters are
After firing the ammunition, we have to have time to go back and replenish the ammunition. In addition, we have arranged many anti-aircraft machine guns and anti-aircraft guns in Valley No. 02... These can pose a certain threat to Mi24 to a certain extent, so helicopters can
The damage caused to us should be said to be very small.
So the plan started soon...
In this battle, I tried not to send the Chinese team to the battlefield to directly fight against the Soviet army. On the one hand, the Chinese team was not very familiar with Afghanistan, and fighting under such a complex terrain as the Xigeo Mountains may not be better than
The Afghan guerrillas are strong. On the other hand, this battle requires a lot of anti-aircraft machine guns, anti-aircraft artillery and mortars...
Although these new equipment is not difficult to fight, it is simply to load, aim and pull the trigger... But it is completely different to hit it accurately, especially mortars and anti-aircraft artillery.
If you want to play accurately, you have to have a lot of mathematical knowledge... This is difficult for the guerrillas, but it is not a difficult task for us.
Therefore, in this battle, the Chinese and ** people played more roles in artillery forces, high-aircraft troops and anti-aircraft artillery units... Of course, the role of the sniper troops was still scattered into the mountains to lurk in reconnaissance and sniper the enemy.
Mission of important military goals.
This forced me to hand over all the defenses of the mountain pass to the guerrillas, at most a few middle-aged people were arranged to serve as military consultants at each mountain pass.
What I have to admit is... this arrangement is actually what I hope, because the battle at Yamaguchi is often face-to-face with Soviet infantry, which will undoubtedly increase the casualties of our army... And those of us are the most important people
Its function is not just to fight, so it is very stupid to defend directly at Yamaguchi.
The one stationed at the Pass No. 3 is a guerrilla named Apuqiu. He is a subordinate of Aduzai... As a man born and raised in the Sigeo Valley, he certainly has the advantage of being familiar with the terrain, but the reason why I
I chose to let him stay at the No. 3 Pass, but it was not just because of this... You should know that the No. 3 Pass played a role in connecting the past and opening up the future among the various passes that besieged the Soviet army in the north, so of course I would carefully consider the candidates to stay at it.
Apuchu was born into a hunter family... This is rare in Afghanistan because there are too many deserts in Afghanistan. If you make a living by hunting in other places, you would probably starve to death long ago... But it is not the case in the Sigeo Valley.
The reason is that this valley has unique natural conditions, sufficient water sources, large areas of vegetation and forests... These are all conditions for animals to survive. Of course, there will be hunters if there are animals to survive, so there are people like Apuqiu.
A hunter, from childhood to adulthood, has followed his father to set traps in the mountains, or quietly waited for the prey to appear with a hunting rifle... Then his performance on the battlefield will naturally be almost the same.
Because this is his profession... He only needs to transform the object he had hunted from animals to enemies.
This is true... It is said that during the first sweep of the Soviet army, Apuqiu killed more than ten enemies with his power alone, including three Soviet soldiers.
This also laid the foundation for Apuqiu to be among the guerrillas...but like all hunters, they are always used to looking for prey alone in the mountains, and they are not good at leading a unit to fight the enemy...so
People like him are actually more suitable to be a sniper than a leader.
But... there are few talents like him in the Afghan guerrillas, and letting him as a leader also helps to spread his combat experience among the guerrillas, so I let him bring more than a hundred
A famous guerrilla team stationed at the No. 3 Pass, and at the same time, Saheed was stationed with him as his military adviser.
There is a reason why Saheed will be his military adviser... On the one hand, Saheed is a platoon leader in the agent company. He used to be a company commander in the 40th Division and has great experience in commanding troops to fight.
.On the other hand, Saheed knew Persian, so there would be no difficulty in communicating with Apchu, so he could cooperate well on the battlefield and even contact us.
As expected, just like I thought... The defense of Yamaguchi No. 3 was a bit different when the Soviet army launched an attack...
The first thing is to block the fortifications... The barbed wire in other places is built with wooden frames to block the position. This can indeed cause some trouble to the enemy, but the disadvantages are also obvious... The barbed wire in front of the position is high
It's like a wall... The enemy will definitely shoot a row of shells on this thing before attacking, and then blow up a few gaps.
But Apuqiu didn't do this. He used it to put the barbed wire on the ground... and he also used it to make many inverted hooks on the barbed wire, and then some mines were made under the barbed wire, so it was a simple
The trap was laid.
The advantage of this is that you don’t know where the barbed wire is from a distance. Only when the infantry walks on the slope will they find out... Although the barbed wire is not very effective in blocking it on the ground, but because of the reverse hook, it can often be used to hold it.
The Soviet troops that charged quickly tripped, and were intimidated by landmines... thus causing great trouble to the Soviet troops, and the guerrillas stationed at high places took advantage of this time to fight.
Secondly, Apuqiu's defense is relatively flexible... I don't know if this is Saheed's idea or Apuqiu's masterpiece. They did not defend the 3rd pass, but retreated on several defense lines, attacked, and then retreated.
, and the repeated attacks of such repeated attacks made the Soviet army often caught off guard and at a loss... (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, novels are better and faster!
