A week after the training, I convened a meeting with the leaders of various guerrilla groups. These meetings were not just for the main leaders such as Hassan and Aduzai, but also for the small leaders of various ethnic groups... To put it simply,
It is equivalent to gathering all the guerrilla company and platoon-level cadres together.
It is really not easy to do this... Although our team only has more than 4,000 people, its power is quite complex... For example, in the meeting held today, we at least need to count how many people there are inside.
Who is the talker among the various forces?
We don’t know if we don’t count, but we were really shocked when we looked at the statistics... There are hundreds of leaders, big and small, in total. That is to say, on average, there are only three or forty people in a power organization, and this is still in the
We are vigorously cultivating the guerrilla force of Hassan.
"Comrades!" I shouted with a small loudspeaker to a large number of guerrilla leaders sitting below who were talking about each other, and the whole venue quickly fell silent.
This may be the result of my successful command of the guerrillas in several victorious battles... Especially after defeating the Soviet army this time, my prestige among the guerrillas has skyrocketed, so regardless of whether they understand what I am saying,
No matter what he said, he stopped all his movements very seriously and turned his eyes to me on the podium.
This also made me understand that it is completely unnecessary to hold a small speaker... No matter how loud I shout, they won't understand, right?
So the next second I laughed at myself and handed the small speaker to Sahaed beside me. The meeting was quickly held in the form of me saying something and Sahaed shouting in response.
"Comrades!" I said: "First of all, what I want to say is... you performed very bravely on the battlefield. It is because of your heroic fighting that we were able to successfully defeat the Soviets, whose strength was several times ours. We defeated them.
Drive them out of your land. This is not only your victory, but also the victory of all Afghans and the glory of all Afghans!"
There was a burst of cheers from the audience soon. If it weren't for the fact that we were in a narrow air-raid shelter, I think they would have grabbed the AK47 and shot it into the sky like before.
"But..." I then changed the topic and said: "You should also know...it is precisely because we defeated the Soviet army that the Chigeo Valley will be stuck in the throat of the Soviets like a thorn.
I feel uncomfortable when I unplug it. So the Soviets are very likely to launch a second and third clearing of our valley... and it may be more violent by then!"
"Then let them come!" An Afghan leader stood up and waved his hand, saying with a proud expression: "Let them know that we Afghans are not easy to mess with, and we will drive them back just like we do now!"
"Punova is right!" Another leader stood up and said: "Next time... we won't put them back like we do now!"
There was another burst of cheers in the conference room, and it seemed that the vast majority of people agreed with what these two people said.
When the conference room calmed down again, I continued: "We have an idiom in China called 'Be prepared for danger in times of peace', and there is also an old saying that 'If you don't have long-term worries, you will have immediate worries.' What these words mean is... we have to take a closer look.
Stay a little further, try to think of the situation as unfavorable to yourself and be prepared... Only in this way can you survive the brutal struggle. These words apply to China, and I think they also apply to Afghanistan!"
When I said this, the leaders stopped talking. Because it is an obvious truth. If you think too optimistically about the future and live in the past victories, then one day you will find that what happened will not be like
It’s as beautiful as you imagined!
"Captain Yang!" A bearded Afghan leader stood up, gave me a chest salute from a distance, and said: "What you said makes sense... We should not treat the Soviets as fools.
We defeated them in this way for the first time and made the Soviets pay a heavy price. So next time... will the Soviets attack like this or let them defeat them again? Of course, war is not that simple, and we
I believe in you... Camp Commander Yang, you have led us to victory again and again!"
"Yes, the old Chinese saying is quite right!"
"What Battalion Commander Yang said is right! The fact that the Chinese people have won so many victories is a clear proof!"
…
The Afghans talked a lot, leaving Saheide and Wang Xianman, who were standing next to me as translators, very busy... Wang Xianman was the translator I added for this meeting to deal with this situation.
"Comrades!" I raised my hand to signal the Afghan leaders to quiet down, and continued: "Thank you very much for your trust in us. But as I just said, we must be prepared for danger in times of peace, and we must consider the Hijeo Valley.
The future defense and the Soviet army may have a more violent attack... so we must constantly improve ourselves and make ourselves stronger, so that we can face more severe tests and more brutal battles in the future. I believe comrade
We all agree with this!”
The Afghan leaders nodded one after another... There is nothing to refute these words.
"In order to improve ourselves, we must find our shortcomings and correct them... Only in this way can we become stronger!"
The leaders still nodded in agreement, which was also an irrefutable truth.
"Then let me talk about our shortcomings!" I continued: "Although we won the last battle, there were still many unsatisfactory things...such as the problem of disconnection between the upper and lower command, such as the guerrillas' various
Some problems include difficulty in coordinating and inconsistent steps, as well as problems with the quality of the guerrillas, etc.
Wait, originally we could have achieved more and greater victories, or we could have avoided some unnecessary casualties, but because of the existence of these problems we can only do this. This is not bad... I am more worried about
, if we continue like this... it is very likely that we will not be able to withstand the next attack of the Soviet army!"
"What Battalion Commander Yang said is right!" As soon as I finished speaking, an Afghan leader stood up: "Otitu's troops treated us as government troops and beat us!"
"That's because your mortars hit our position!"
"Mortars are always inaccurate!"
…
"Ades's troops are stealing our ammunition while we're fighting the Soviets!"
"We are short of ammunition. I told you twice but you still won't give it!" The leader, known as Ades, stood up and retorted: "You obviously have a lot of ammunition left, why don't you give some to us? Just let them
Stand and stare!"
"But that's our ammunition! Why don't you save more for yourself?"
…
Then the conference room quickly became a quarrel with each other. In short, the public said what was right and the mother-in-law said what was right... If it weren't for our pressure, I'm afraid these guerrillas would have started to fight.
Already.
Actually...the things they mentioned are very common things on the battlefield. For example, a mortar misses and hits one's own position, or asking for more ammunition from friendly forces when ammunition is low...Who has not experienced these things?
Come on, our troops have never fought over this matter and even managed to fight each other on the battlefield.
But the Afghan guerrillas are different... The reason is that they each have their own small groups and their own interests, so there are endless incidents of tearing each other's faces or quarreling over ammunition on the battlefield. It can almost be said that they are united to fight.
A battle... Whether this battle is won or lost, it will cause a lot of conflicts.
This is why historically the Afghan guerrillas were unable to form a de facto alliance to effectively unite to fight against the Soviet Union... We only have a coalition of a few thousand people like this, but the entire Afghan guerrilla coalition of hundreds of thousands
How about being together?!
"This is what I am going to say next!" When the leaders were almost at an end, I continued: "For the benefit of the Xigeo Valley, and also for our ability to withstand the Soviet attack, I will
A reform will be carried out on the guerrillas of Cigeo. This reform will ensure that things like these happen as rarely as possible, and even if they do happen, they will not get worse. At the same time, the party that violates disciplines will be punished as it should!"
When hearing these words, the expressions on the faces of the leaders were still disapproving... I think this is because they don't know what "reform" is, so they don't take it seriously at all.
Aduzay, who had been silent, seemed to have heard something. At this time, he stood up and asked: "Captain Yang, what's going on with the reform?"
"To put it simply!" I continued what Zaduzay said: "It means unified organization in the guerrilla army, that is, regimental commander, battalion commander, company commander..."
The leaders still don't take it seriously, because this thing has been done before, but it is just a name, and the real power is still in the hands of these leaders.
"Then who will serve as the commander of these regiments and battalions?" Aduzay knew that this time it would not be so simple, so he asked again.
"Of course it is up to you!" I said: "For example, if you have a unit of 100 people, then you can serve as a company commander, and if there are more than 30 soldiers, you can serve as a platoon leader...
"
I did this to take care of the interests of the leaders, otherwise it would be a headache for them to unite to rebel... Although at this time we have the strength to suppress any rebellion.
"But..." I continued: "You cannot serve as cadres of your own tribe, such as Pashtuns, but you must serve as cadres of the Hadak tribe! And...if you perform poorly on the battlefield, or are not qualified for this position
, we can discuss the replacement together!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he caused an uproar in the conference room! (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
