Dominate South Asia

Chapter 359: Counterattack

"Ah." With the sound, the sniper screamed, he had been hit by the bullet from the opposite side!

"Shoot, shoot!" The people in the armored vehicle finally couldn't help it. When they saw a figure on the small building opposite, the 14.5mm machine gun on the turret immediately opened fire. This caliber of machine gun bullets hit the wall and made a big hole effortlessly.

Under the cover of the machine gun, the soldiers of the mechanized infantry squad ran to the opposite side. When they ran to the small building, they only saw a corpse that had been broken into two halves. He was wearing his own military uniform. The young face was full of reluctance to this world. This was a captured soldier of his own side!

"Kill!" The Soviet soldiers pulled the trigger to the sky. Only in this way could they vent their anger. They knew that the cunning sniper of the other side retreated immediately after firing the second shot, leaving this prisoner of their own side, and letting their own side shoot by mistake. It was simply too hateful!

They didn't abide by the Geneva Convention at all, these damn Afghan rebels! As long as they are caught by our side, they must be made to live a life worse than death!

In fact, the Afghan guerrillas have never abided by the Geneva Convention. Skinning is their favorite, and the Soviet soldiers are also very cruel after capturing Afghan prisoners of war.

Under a mud wall, six or seven Soviet soldiers surrounded an Afghan Free Army fighter. When the soldier was retreating, he just jumped into the encirclement of people here. As a result, there is no way to retreat now.

Catch a prisoner of the other side, pry out the other side's secrets from their mouths, and see where the other side hides their people, especially the division commander! These Soviet soldiers are ready to capture prisoners. They just keep surrounding them, and no one shoots.

The prisoner obediently threw away the gun and spread his hands, seeming to cooperate, so these Soviet soldiers walked closer, and when they were almost able to touch the prisoner, they saw the prisoner's face. With a unique smile, the Soviet soldiers suddenly felt something was wrong and fell into the trap!

There was no time to react. A grenade appeared in the prisoner's hand and he pulled out the safety without hesitation.

"Boom!" Along with the Afghan Free Army soldier, six or seven Soviet soldiers were all destroyed in the explosion, and broken arms and limbs were scattered on the scene. It was a horrible sight.

I would rather die than be captured. Before I die, I have to drag a few people with me!

Street fighting is cruel. People seem to have forgotten what pain and death are. They only know how to fight and fight with blood and fire to avenge their brothers!

Maybe during the day. The Soviets will occupy a block with their advantages in armor and personnel, and at night, the death squad will come out again and take it back. Both sides are murderous and leave countless bodies.

When the front line has been glued together, the Soviet Union wants to use the original artillery tactics. It is impossible. The leading troops have even entered the east of the city. After passing half of the city, there are people everywhere. There are enemies everywhere. At this time, shelling again. They can only let their own people suffer losses together.

The whole world is watching here. Countless observers believe that although the Soviet mechanized army's advantages cannot be developed in the mountains, the Soviet army has an absolute advantage in the city.

They believe that even without shelling, the Soviet Union will completely occupy Jalalabad in three to five days and eliminate all the soldiers of the Afghan Free Army. However, day after day, five days, ten days, half a month, a month, the fighting between the two sides is getting more and more intense, and more and more troops are invested. The fighting in the city has been going on, and it seems that it will be completely taken tomorrow. However, when another day ends, the front line is still in the original position, and even retreats.

The Soviets are increasingly feeling the crisis. The cold winter in Afghanistan is coming. The severe cold will make people difficult to move, and the transportation of supplies will be even more difficult. If the fighting cannot be ended before winter, then they may need to evacuate from here.

Evacuation means a complete failure. The failure in the air can be attributed to the support of the Pakistani Air Force from the entire Western world. It can even be said that American pilots participated in the battle in Pakistani Air Force uniforms. What about the ground? They are all bearded Afghans. If they can't even win the ground battle, then the Soviet Union will really become a toothless tiger.

End the ground battle before winter! This order was issued by Marshal Akhromeyev and passed to Petrovsky, the commander of the front line. Petrovsky knew that if he couldn't end this battle cleanly, his position as commander would be over.

He passed the order down level by level, putting pressure on the people below, and they must end the battle quickly! When necessary, they can even ignore the lives of prisoners!

The Soviet Union does not have the spirit of Americans. Americans will not easily give up their brothers in battle. Even if they sacrifice more people, they will rescue their own people. This is a cowboy spirit. The Soviets, on the other hand, were more concerned about costs. When they found that they suffered greater losses because of their concerns about their own prisoners, they would no longer consider their own prisoners. When necessary, they had to make choices and sacrifices!

The battle became more brutal.

In a basement in the east of Jalalabad.

"The Soviets have been attacking fiercely recently." Osama said, "We have lost a lot of people, and many places have been reduced to ruins. If we continue to fight, I am afraid we will not be able to hold out until winter comes."

"Yes, the Soviets are fighting fiercely, and they also know that once winter comes, they will be unable to attack us again." Khwaja said, "We must persist!"

"I have a new tactic." Osama said, "The Soviet artillery positions have more and more ammunition, so much that it has piled up into a mountain. We just need to light a fire and the people there will be killed."

Their artillery positions are next to their base camp. As long as the ammunition on those artillery positions is set on fire, the nearby military headquarters, various logistics supplies, and reserve troops will be killed along with them, and the Soviets will be seriously injured and may even retreat.

"But we can't get close." Ramel said: "The Soviets are defending very tightly. There are empty ruins within eight kilometers around. We can't get close at all. Moreover, the Soviets have implemented a strict confirmation policy. If we want to pretend to be Soviets, we will be intercepted eight kilometers away."

Last time Osama pretended to be a Soviet and broke into the division headquarters. The Soviets will not make the same mistake again. If you want to get close, you must have a password. Moreover, if the unit number is wrong, you are not allowed to get close.

"Yes, we will kill them eight kilometers away!" Osama said: "Although they are defending very tightly there, we are fighting fiercely in the city. A few BTR infantry fighting vehicles will not attract any attention from them, right?"

"Of course, we have relied on this method to recapture the position several times."

"Let's modify the BTR infantry fighting vehicle." Osama said: "Install our 107 rocket launcher."

These days, Osama has been thinking about countermeasures. What can pose the greatest threat to the Soviet artillery position? That is naturally our own rocket launcher!

When Jalalabad was just captured, a lot of equipment came from Peshawar, including powerful 107mm rocket launchers. The twelve-tube towed artillery can also be disassembled and used separately.

As long as the BTR is modified and the rocket launcher is stuffed in, it can be brought to the outer perimeter of the opponent's cordon with this weapon, and then, with a salvo, dozens of rockets will fly over. Even if one falls into their ammunition pile, it will cause a terrible explosion!

The Soviets did not expect that those shells would eventually become weapons that completely buried them!

"Okay, let's do it!" Khwaja said, "This time, it's time for our First Army to show off its skills, right?"

"Bullshit, the Soviet shells are mine." Osama said in an indecent way, "Don't compete with me for them. I've been thinking about this plan for half a month. I'm just waiting for the Soviets to have as many shells as possible. Moreover, now that the battle has reached the eastern city, the Soviets' defenses must have been reduced. Tonight, let's wait and see the fireworks."

Osama said, and left the basement with a smile. For more than a month, more than half of his guards had been killed or wounded. What supported them to continue fighting was the desire for victory. As the area they were guarding became smaller and smaller, their morale began to decline. What was more important this time was to boost morale!

In fact, there was nothing to modify. It would be most appropriate to cut off the steel plate at the back and put the rocket launcher inside. However, Osama did not have these things at hand, so he could only simply fix the rocket launcher behind the turret, where there was a large open space, and then fill the surrounding area with branches and cover it with a white cloth.

This white cloth was covered with the most exquisite.

In the middle of the night, five fully prepared BTR infantry fighting vehicles rumbled out.

When the armored vehicles drove out, the Soviet soldiers along the way saw it, did not say anything, and silently lowered their heads, and some even saluted the armored vehicles.

Under the white cloth were the bodies of their compatriots. In this battle, they sacrificed many comrades. (To be continued ~^~)
