Dominate South Asia

The Panjshir guerrillas have been active in the Panjshir Valley, controlling the land channels for the Soviet Union to enter Afghanistan. They have launched attacks from time to time, causing heavy losses to the transportation troops. It is precisely because of this that the Forty Army has made up its mind to destroy this guerrilla force. Total annihilation.

Having learned the lesson from the last time, they adopted the method of blocking all mountain passes and beating dogs, hoping to eliminate the Panjshir guerrillas in one fell swoop. But now, they have opened a gap and got out of the encirclement. Everywhere in Badakhshan Province is full of people. It's a mountainous area. God knows where the guerrillas will hide?

Moreover, when did the Jalalabad guerrillas circle around? He also rescued the Panjshir guerrillas, allowing him to roam around in the mountainous area for a long time in vain!

Thinking of this, Ji Yako could no longer hide his anger and looked at Eva Kourni: "Eva, you made us miss the opportunity to fight!"

Kournyeva can ignore the accusations from the officers within the Forty Army because it is not a system and she belongs to the KGB. However, the GRU's special forces are affiliated with the KGB. Faced with Diyako's accusations, Kournyeva The baby must be solemn.

"Don't worry, Lord Diyako, they can't escape. They are mixed together again. This will make it easier for us to catch them all." Kournyeva said.

"Do you know where they are hiding?" Ji Yako asked.

"We don't know yet, but we will know soon. I need to request the headquarters to dispatch a special aircraft." Kournieva said quietly.

A medium-sized helicopter took off from the air force base in Tajikistan. The five-blade propeller stirred the airflow and made a whirring sound. The huge crew cabin looked like a flying hippopotamus. This is exactly what NATO named Hippopotamus. Mi-8 helicopter.

Different from the ordinary Mi-8, this helicopter is equipped with rectangular wireless covers on both sides of the cockpit, and an antenna array composed of six cross magnetic pole antennas can be seen outside. This is a Mi-8PPA special electronic warfare helicopter.

After taking off from the base, the helicopter crossed the national border and entered the airspace of Afghanistan. It kept hovering over the northern mountains, with six cross-shaped antennas receiving electromagnetic signals from time to time.

Damn mountains! If you are in a plain area, you can easily detect the signal emitted by the radio signal source. But now, helicopters have to shuttle constantly and search in various valleys. Needless to say, the signal of the small watch radioactive source is the military signal of the ground troops. Radio stations often fail due to the obstruction of mountainous areas.

In the cockpit, several electronic warfare officers and soldiers were sitting on their seats, staring closely at the huge circular display screen in front of them. Suddenly, one of the electronic warfare officers and soldiers saw a bright spot on the screen.

Find the target! A valley fifteen kilometers away!

"The raven calls to the GRU, the raven calls to the GRU." The electronic warfare officer said into the head-mounted microphone: "The target was found, a valley five kilometers north of Shizikou in Badakhshan Province."

Putting down the radio, Ji Yako had a cold smile on his face: "Our mission is to completely annihilate these two guerrillas. Now, we pass through the valley to the east."

"Your Excellency Diyako, don't we notify the 108th Division?" Kournyeva asked.

"That group of trash has not even completed the task of destroying the guerrillas in the encirclement. How can we still count on them? One of our special operations brigade is enough." Diyako said.

"That Mhamad is very cunning, please be careful." Kournyeva said.

"Hmph." Diyako made a sound in his nose, led his troops, and slowly disappeared from Kournyeva's sight. He had already obtained the opponent's accurate whereabouts. Diyako did not need Kournyeva as a guide. .

Kournieva always had an ominous premonition. That Mhammad was simply amazing. He could discover his plans every time. However, Diyako led a brigade, all of which were soldiers with rich combat experience. , went to encircle and suppress the fleeing Afghan guerrillas, but at most they failed to catch up, so what danger could there be?

Diyako thought the same way. A few years ago, when the Soviet Union decided to help Afghanistan stabilize the political situation, the first troops dispatched included the GRU. Many veterans in his team had participated in the battle at that time, and this This time, in order to fight in the mountains of Afghanistan, a considerable part of his troops were Tajiks and Uzbeks who could speak Afghani and were familiar with mountain operations.

If the number of helicopters was not limited and could not transport his entire unit there, he would really like to mobilize helicopters to quickly reach the mountainous area there and encircle and annihilate the two guerrillas.

Now, what he is most worried about is that he went too late and the guerrillas have already left. However, as long as there is a Mi-8 electronic reconnaissance aircraft overhead and continuously intercepts the signals of radio beacons, he can always obtain the whereabouts of the guerrillas. .

In this way, Diyako's troops trekked in the mountains, advancing along the rugged paths.

At the same time, Ji Yako was also cautious. In order to prevent the Afghan guerrillas from playing tricks, he also contacted Bagram. More than a dozen Hinds would arrive there at the same time. Even if the Afghan guerrillas had any traps, under the joint air-ground attack, These two guerrilla groups will also be crushed quickly.

The rugged mountain roads are inaccessible even to armored vehicles, so the only way is to travel on foot or with local donkeys.

After walking for half a day and passing through several mountains, in the evening, the GRU Special Operations Brigade appeared in a valley.

The Mi-8 reconnaissance helicopter had already flown away, and the second one to replace it had not yet arrived. Ji Yako only knew that the guerrillas had not made any moves in the three hours of the afternoon, and only in the last hour did they leave here.

In an hour, they could not go far. When the second Mi-8 flew over and re-indicated their targets, it was just at night. At that time, a sneak attack on the Afghan guerrillas would be enough to wipe them out!

"Brigade commander, there are high mountains on both sides here. Should we send someone to take a look?" A battalion commander next to Ji Yako said to him.

The terrain is too dangerous. If the Afghan guerrillas are ambushed on both sides, they will be very passive from a high position.

"I am still looking forward to them coming out from both sides." Ji Yako said, looking at the peaks on both sides with a cunning look.

If they really showed up at this time, it would be a death wish. Overhead, the rumbling sound was getting closer and closer. Several Hind helicopters were hovering here. As long as the Afghan guerrillas showed up, they would be beaten to death.

Although it seemed like he had become a bait, Ji Yake was not afraid at all. He had a complete advantage.

The hillsides on both sides were quiet. The wind blew through the valley, making a humming sound. As the sun set, the temperature began to drop again.

Damn hell! Although the winter in the Soviet Union was also cold, it was not as drastic as here. At noon, it was so hot that you could only wear a single layer of clothes, but in the middle of the night, you had to wear a cotton jacket. The temperature difference was too big.

Ji Yake cursed and continued to walk forward. The helicopters hovered above his head, and the troops behind him formed a long snake of dozens of meters and followed quickly.

"Mr. Muhammad, the Soviets have indeed entered the valley." At the end of the valley, looking across through a high-powered military telescope, Massoud gently said to Muhammad beside him.

"It's all thanks to that watch." Muhammad said, "Otherwise, how would the Soviets know we are here."

When Muhammad saw the watch Massoud was wearing, he knew there was a problem. He carefully opened the back cover of the watch and saw the battery hidden inside. The watch chain was the antenna.

In this era, there was no advanced positioning device like that of later generations. The American GPS navigation satellite was still in the experimental stage, and the first satellite of the Soviet GLONASS system would not fly into the sky until a few months later, and integrated circuits had not yet formed the scale of later generations.

This thing is just a simple radio beacon transmitter, which continuously transmits signals to report its position, and how to locate it requires more equipment.

When Muhammad discovered the Soviet helicopter with a cross antenna flying in the mountains, he knew that the Soviets were indeed looking for their traces. Muhammad had two choices: either destroy the watch and make the signal disappear completely, or use the watch to set a huge trap for the Soviets.

The Soviets caused Massoud's guerrillas to suffer heavy losses. Now that there was a new plan, Massoud agreed to Muhammad's plan without hesitation.

Now, everything was going according to their own arrangements, and the Soviets got into their own trap.

Although there were Soviet helicopters patrolling back and forth overhead, Massoud was still full of confidence. This time, it was no longer bullets and shells that killed the Soviets, but... stones!

"Let's do it." Muhammad said.

"Okay." Massoud looked at the Soviet soldiers in the valley with hateful eyes and connected the wires in his hands together.

"Boom! Boom, boom!" The explosion resounded through the sky and shook the earth.

The explosion was not on their route. When they heard the sounds from both sides, Ji Yako's special operations brigade immediately squatted on the ground, pulled the bolt, and aimed at the peaks on both sides.

When they looked over, they were stunned.

Oh, God, what is that?

"Gurgle, gurgle." Countless boulders rolled on the hillside, hitting the ground, making violent vibrations. There was smoke on the hillside, which was where the explosion occurred.

This explosion did not explode next to them, but the effect was far better than the explosion next to them!

They trembled involuntarily, staring at the rolling boulders on both sides, and actually forgot to run. Those boulders completely occupied their retinas.
