Chapter 179 Iranian Conspiracy

Peshawar.

On the calm Afghan battlefield, the situation has changed so much that Hamad did not expect that before the winter of last year, the Afghan Free Army defeated the Soviets so badly that the Soviets even lost their own transportation lines. Unable to protect it well and unable to get more supplies, the Soviets had to endure a cold winter.

But now, after the winter has passed, the Soviets unexpectedly launched a large-scale offensive. With the continuous bombing of high-altitude fighter planes, the morale of the Afghan Free Army was undermined. In particular, the supplies could not be transported and logistical supplies were lost. The Afghan Free Army resumed its operations. From an army to a guerrilla force.

Even Khwaja and Durrani are suggesting that the troops should be dismantled and hide in the mountains again to fight guerrillas, breaking them into pieces.

Mhammad did not agree to their request, and now Mhamad is thinking more about it.

"The materials we transported this time have been in vain for the Soviets." In the headquarters, looking at the large-scale sand table, Mushaaf said: "In the past, we attacked the Soviets' transportation lines and consumed them. The war potential, now, is what the Soviets hit us with.”

Mhamad nodded. As the front line continued to report intelligence, Mhamad knew how fiercely the Afghan Free Army was fighting. Thinking that the troops he created were being consumed by the Soviets, Mhamad felt extremely heartbroken. .

The Soviet Union has air superiority, and it is an absolute advantage to use the air to deal with the ground. Now, the Soviets have used this tactic very well. Even Mhamad admires the Soviets for doing so in the face of adversity. Trick.

However, there is always something wrong, Mhammad looked at the sand table, frowning, thinking.

When he looked at the Iranian border in western Afghanistan, a thought suddenly flashed in his mind, Damn it, this is not how the Soviets went, right?

"The Soviets are now launching such a large offensive, especially their fighter planes, and the air strikes are so strong. In addition to one batch taking off from Turkmenistan, half of them also took off from Bagram. Therefore, their logistical supply issues should be Already solved." Mhamad said: "With the Free Army Regiment in the Panjshir Valley, it is impossible for the Soviets to transport so many supplies, so they must have other channels!"

With his keen intuition, Mhamad discovered what was behind the war, supplies. How were the Soviets' supplies transported?

"Are they relying on transport planes?" Mushaaf asked.

"Of course not. With the transport capacity of the transport plane, they can't even transport all the supplies for one division." Mhamad said: "They must have come around from here."

Following the direction that Mhammad pointed, Musaaf looked over and said in surprise: "Via Iran? How is this possible?"

"How is that impossible? After all, scum can be found everywhere." Mhamad said: "Otherwise, if the Soviet Union is encircling and suppressing so powerfully in the north, why is there no movement in the south?"

When Mhammad said this, Musaaf understood immediately.

It was impossible for the Soviets to transport large quantities of supplies from northern Afghanistan. That area was dominated by the Free Afghan Army. If the Soviets wanted to pass through, they would have to pay a lot of casualties. Especially the Panjshir Valley was a sad place for the Soviets. Every day there were Fighting, vehicles were destroyed every day.

In winter, the severe cold in the Pamir Plateau stopped everything. Even the Afghan Free Army stopped its attacks and spent the cold winter in caves. At this time, the Soviets bypassed northern Afghanistan, from the Iranian border to came over, all the way to southern Afghanistan, and then dispersed the supplies throughout the country.

Our attention was only on northern Afghanistan. Therefore, we did not expect that the Soviets would actually complete such a large-scale supply operation. Now, with sufficient ammunition and food, they finally began to launch a fierce attack on the Afghan Free Army. .

When the Wakhan Corridor was cut off, the Free Afghan Army lacked supplies from Pakistan and it was difficult for them to persist.

It is impossible for the Soviets to hide such a large-scale mobilization from Iran. Although Iran is currently at war with Iraq, it is impossible not to deploy troops on the eastern border.

Now, regardless of whether the top Iranian officials know it or not, at least the commander of the Eastern Border Guard must be colluding with the Soviets.

It's full of conspiracy.

The Free Afghan Army in the north is so dazzling that all Afghans know that it is the Free Afghan Army that is liberating the entire Afghanistan and driving away the Soviets. In contrast, the Afghan guerrillas in the south have done nothing.

If this continues, when the war in Afghanistan ends, the Free Afghan Army will become the national army of Afghanistan, and the Afghan Free Party will become the ruling party of Afghanistan. In this way, the guerrillas in the south are absolutely unwilling to see it.

Driven by various interests, they probably secretly reached some kind of agreement with the Soviets, and the guerrillas in the south were supported by the Iranians. In this way, the Soviets passed the Iranian border without incident and transferred their logistics Supplies were delivered and at the same time dealt a heavy blow to the Free Afghan Army.

Historically, such a thing did not happen, so Mhamad was not prepared. But now, due to Mhammad's crossing, the war in Afghanistan has developed in another direction. In this way, the butterfly effect has appeared. new situation.

"If this is true, we have to act in advance." Mushaaf said: "With the momentum of the Soviet offensive, the Afghan Free Army can be dispersed in a few months."

"Yes!" Muhammad said in a resounding voice: "We must let the Soviets know that the Afghan Free Army will not be defeated! We will attack from two sides. I will send a unit of the Afghan Free Army to penetrate and reach western Iran to find the Soviet transport troops and attack them. We must not let their logistics materials arrive so blatantly! Secondly, notify the Iranian top leaders to let them know that this is too much and we are very angry."

Muhammad would never agree to Iran's harm to the Afghan Free Army. Now, Muhammad has the means to control Iran. If they persist, Muhammad would rather not make high profits to subsidize his own air force than provide Iran with spare parts for Tomcat.

Under such conditions, the Iranian top brass will make the right choice. Moreover, Muhammad knows that the guys in the Iranian top brass are all very noble. According to their personalities, especially the spiritual leader, they should not let such a thing happen. In all likelihood, it was done by the commander of the Iranian Eastern Garrison.

"At the same time, we must also give some practical support to the Afghan Free Army." Muhammad said: "Take off the electronic jammer to interfere with the Soviet fighter planes."

Due to restrictions, Muhammad cannot command the Pakistani Air Force to cross the border to attack, which will expand the scale of the war, and the consequences are not something Muhammad can bear. Now, take off the electronic jammer to interfere, without crossing the border, and maintain mutual restraint.

"However, we have to protect the jammers." Mushaaf said, "Maybe the Soviets will cross the border and attack our jammers."

"Yes, the Soviets are desperate and can do anything." Muhammad said, "We will take off two Tomcat fighters to escort the jammers. If the Soviets dare to attack, we will resolutely fight back!"

After thinking for a while, Muhammad added, "We have to take off an early warning aircraft to monitor the battlefield airspace."

Although the Tomcat fighter has a powerful radar, the fighter will not always turn on the radar during the actual flight. It will only be turned on when scanning the airspace and intercepting operations. If it is turned on as soon as it takes off and turned off when it lands, it will take several hours each time, and the radar will soon be scrapped. After all, the average failure-free interval of the AWG-9 is only forty hours. Each battle takes more than ten minutes, and it must be checked frequently. If it is turned on all the time, it is a waste.

"The order has been sent to the Peshawar Air Force Base." Mushaaf said: "Starting tomorrow, enter the patrol jamming state."

The equipment imported from the United States can finally play a role now.

Four high-power T56-A-15 turboprop engines roared, and the four propellers rotated at the front of the wing, driving the transport plane to taxi on the runway. As an excellent tactical transport plane, it also only taxied a few hundred meters before it was airborne.

The appearance of this transport plane is exactly the C-130, which is a high-performance transport plane currently in service in the United States. However, the large knife-shaped antennas above the dorsal fin and under each outer wing, and the small knife-shaped antennas on both sides of the fuselage all show that this transport plane is not ordinary. This is a modified electronic warfare plane!

The Americans were able to export this electronic warfare plane entirely because of the backfire. Now, this electronic jammer will play its due power.

"Compass call has taken off, requesting escort." The captain shouted on the radio in the front cockpit of the fuselage.

"Eaglet Squadron received, taking off and coming." Behind the EC-130H electronic warfare aircraft, two F-14 Tomcat fighters turned on the afterburner and took off quickly.

Now, all 80 Tomcat fighters have returned home, and the most skilled pilots have been added to the Peshawar Military Region. The 15th Squadron here is equipped with a total of 24 Tomcat fighters. The rest are all at the Eastern Air Force Base.

Although Eagle Rick is very young, he has become the captain of a flight squadron due to his last combat exploits. He likes this feeling of taking off very much.

The two Tomcat fighters quickly caught up with the EC-130H, and the three aircraft flew in formation.
