"Accurate!" Aduzai nodded: "This is the information given by our inner-members who were placed in the Soviet army. He is a translator... so the information he got was a lot and reliable!"
"Yeah!" I nodded. If it was really like Aduzai said... this inner person should be a translator, then it would be possible to get this information. After all, when the Soviets were to pass the orders to the Afghan government forces, they would have to
After translation, isn’t it? Moreover, there are not many people in the Soviet Union who speak Persian, but there are many people in Afghanistan who speak Russian...
This is determined by the relationship between the Soviet Union and the huge economic environment... You should know that in the past few decades, the Soviet Union has been almost the same as colonization and colonization compared to Afghanistan. Moreover, the living conditions in Afghanistan are very harsh and there are few job opportunities...
But at the same time, there were a large number of Soviet military advisers and merchants from the Soviet Union who came to Afghanistan to do business... mainly to run jewelry business. Because Afghanistan has many mountains and stones, there are many kinds of gem mines.
This provides employment opportunities for some Afghans with cultural foundations... to learn Russian and then serve as translators for the Soviets.
On the other hand, the Soviets had a sense of superiority compared to the Afghans, and their economic conditions were much better than those of Afghanistans... This made them disdain to learn Persian to compete with the Afghans for this job.
In fact... even if the Soviets wanted to rob, they couldn't rob it. The reason was that Afghanistan was so poor that the Soviets could hire a good translator at a very low price, and Afghan translators also had local connections to use.
So Su A's translation industry was basically monopolized by the Afghans.
This is why in history, when the Soviet army invaded Afghanistan, all the people complained that there was no translation... There were less than ten translations that could be found in the entire Soviet Union, but these less than ten people had to help the 100,000 Soviet army.
Communication with the Afghan people and government forces... the difficulty of this communication can be imagined.
It is precisely because of this that the Soviet Union hired a large number of Afghan translators in a hunger manner... These translators are all Afghans. Of course, some of them are in Cao's camp and are in the heart of Han, so they become a good guerrilla team for obtaining intelligence.
channel.
"Battery Commander!" Seeing that I was still hesitating, the instructor asked: "Do you... doubt there is a fraud?"
"That's right!" I nodded: "I think this is what I think... The intelligence work in the Soviet Union is much more rigorous and meticulous than ours... This is not something we can compare with the support of the Afghan people with the support of the masses.
It is worth mentioning that the Soviet Union is a big country. They are comparable to the United States in intelligence work, and they have advanced reconnaissance tools, such as listening equipment, spy satellites, etc. In addition, they are also in the Sigeo Valley.
We fought a war with us...so we have to assume that the Soviet army understands our situation, that is, the Soviet army knows that we lack air defense equipment, and even knows that the United States has been unwilling to provide us with advanced surface-to-air air defense missiles!"
"That's right!" Zhao Jingping interrupted, "Especially the Soviet devils fought with us. Although they suffered a great loss, they knew that most of our anti-aircraft weapons were anti-aircraft machine guns and small-caliber anti-aircraft artillery... or
It just doesn't have much threat to helicopters, or it's not suitable for maneuvering in mountainous areas, and surface-to-air missiles are "blowing tube-type" with extremely low hit rate and difficult operation... As an armed helicopter and with mature combat experience, the Soviets did not
Maybe you don't know this!"
"Then..." I said: "The Soviet Union knew that we lacked air defense weapons... but he chose to show off the air defense weapons at this time. What is this called?"
Zhao Jingping and instructor couldn't help but look at each other and said a word in unison: "To what he likes!"
"That's right! Just to meet his preference!" I said: "I think the intention of the Soviet Union may be like this... Since the last clearance failed, they knew that the Sigeo Valley was easy to defend but difficult to attack, so they used a move
Pull the snake out of the hole... Use the equipment we urgently need to lure us out of the valley. As long as we walk out of the valley... it is very likely that we will not be able to come back!"
"Oh!" The instructor heard the words, he nodded, and then laughed: "These Soviet devils... actually played Sun Tzu's Art of War with us. If the battalion commander hadn't reminded me... I almost fell for them.
!”
"I almost fell for a fool!" I smiled bitterly: "When I heard that the Soviet devil was going to transport these equipment back, my first reaction was to take him hard! Especially when I listened
When there are surface-to-air missiles…”
"Oh! These Americans are really!" Zhao Jingping complained differently when he heard this: "They obviously have good things, but they are unwilling to use them on the battlefield... What else do you say to support the Afghan guerrillas?!"
I couldn't help but smile when I heard this. It's really not a fault for the Americans... because the interests that countries have to consider are just as we... Is it not for China's interests to work hard on the battlefield in Afghanistan now? We and the United States are
The difference between the guys is... they have technology, money, and advanced equipment. What we have only combat experience and a life!
So we joined forces with the Americans to be perfect match... They paid for money, technology, and advanced equipment, and we could only come to this valley to fight the Soviet army with the Afghan guerrillas.
"Battery Commander!" Aduzai, who was standing next to him, said unwillingly: "What if... the Soviets did not set a trap? If the Soviets really arranged this way... then we wouldn't have lost one big thing.
A chance?"
"Think about it..." I said: "These equipment is actually not very important to us!"
"This..." Even Zhao Jingping was a little confused after hearing what I said.
"First of all, this tank and self-propelled anti-aircraft artillery!" I said, "No need to say more about the tanks... Some of the tanks and armored vehicles we seized were placed in the valley. They were just used occasionally during training! Defending the mountain entrance in defense battles and defense.
It's time that maybe it can play a role... but have you ever thought about how much pressure would it put on our logistics if we were to fully launch these armored vehicles and tanks?"
"Oh!" After I said this, Zhao Jingping quickly understood: "The battalion commander is right... If there is no car and only transported by mules and horse teams, just transporting diesel is a big burden, let alone transporting it, let alone transporting it.
Machine gun bullets and tank shells for armored vehicles!”
"This is only one aspect!" I said: "Even if we seized the Soviet army's self-propelled anti-aircraft guns, even if we can transport enough fuel and ammunition... Then our armored troops can only move in the valley at most.
The valley will be attacked from all-round attacks by Soviet artillery, armored soldiers, helicopters, etc.... Fighting modern warfare is the strength of the Soviet army, and it is precisely our weakness. We are attacking the strengths of the other with our own shortcomings!"
"Then... air defense missiles are always useful!" Aduzai said: "What we need most now is this... This is easy to grab. If you get it, you can transport it to the mountains with mules and horses. The Soviets wanted to chase it.
Can't chase!"
I shook my head: "The Soviet air defense missile... If it is infrared guidance, it is indeed easy to use, but there is also a problem... We have used the Dragon anti-tank missile before, so I know some knowledge about this, it
The principle is to receive some infrared bands emitted by the target and track the target based on these bands... This will lead to a problem. If you know which band these missiles track, you can interfere with targeted and very effective ways.
The M missile is a missile of the Soviet devils. They still don’t know which bands these missiles track? So at that time, they only need to interfere properly... I’m afraid that the surface-to-air missiles we grab will turn into a pile of scrap iron!”
"There's something else!" said the instructor incredibly: "Then aren't these equipments simply unattractive to us?!"
"I was told by the battalion commander..." Zhao Jingping nodded and said, "I also think that although these equipment is good, and they are also air defense weapons that we are in short supply, but if we snatch them, it is probably useless at all, or not at all.
Suitable for us!”
"Battery Commander..." Aduzai asked, "Then do we stop fighting?"
"That's all right!" Zhao Jingping replied: "We don't have to do anything and are not worth taking risks for this batch of equipment that is not suitable for us!"
"Oh!" Aduzai was stunned for a moment and stopped talking.
I don’t know if I was too concerned or something, but I feel Aduzai seems a little disappointed...
Why were you disappointed? Is it for this batch of equipment? Or is it because I didn't let him play? Or is it because of other reasons?
After Aduzai left, the more I thought about it, the more I became, the more I was getting worse... Then I asked the guard to call Hassan.
"Have you heard that the Soviet army was going to transport air defense equipment back to China?" I asked.
"I just heard a little bit of the wind!" Hassan replied: "But the news is uncertain, so I didn't have time to report it to you!"
"Is there any problem?" Hassan asked from the side when I was silent.
"So…" I said: "Send a trustworthy person to secretly stop Aduzai from watching him, to see if he has any abnormal behavior, such as who he has contacted with..."
"Aduzai?" Hassan couldn't help but look at me in shock when he heard this.
"You can't let others know about this, do you understand?"
"I understand!" Hassan responded, but his eyes were obviously telling me that he still couldn't believe what I was wondering about.
I also hope this is not true... But from the various signs, I have to suspect that Aduzai has a strange intention!
