Chapter 65: Knowing Everything

In order to facilitate the team's study of the battle plan, Rana also built a large sand table in the command tent. Every day, according to the battlefield reports of the ISI, the situation of the enemy in the sand table of the Khyber Pass Gorge is adjusted in a timely manner.

"Lana, you are a competent commander and a competent ISI agent." Major Sandra gave a special commendation in the evening.

Since becoming the commander of the Guard, Rana is now very personal and his beard has been shaved short to become a beautiful mustache. The clothes were also clean, and the person seemed to be twenty or thirty years younger all of a sudden. Praised by Shandra, he smiled warmly and said, "I will definitely train the guards to be real soldiers, loyal to the trading company, and protect the trading company." ”

Yu Songyuan rarely went to the training ground during this week, he occasionally rode a mule to check a lap, and more time, he just stared at the sand table. When you are tired, you will step on the snow and go fishing in the Duhan River, which has a lot of fish, especially carp, crucian carp and grass carp.

Facing this life-saving benefactor who gave her first kiss, Buna wanted to set it up. But Yu Songyuan is the emperor of the training camp, and her aura is too strong, so she doesn't dare to approach. She looked for every opportunity to rub in front of Yu Songyuan, who knew her little things well. Seeing that she was about to move, as long as she stared, she immediately raised her hand in surrender, and was quiet for a moment.

At this time, Peshawar is still like late autumn, but there have been a few light snowfalls under Wendur Mountain, and there is a thin layer of snow on the ground. Under the main peak of Wendur Mountain, the river channel is gradually widened, the water flow is slow, and Yu Songyuan can catch twenty or thirty catties a day. Liu Guodong can also catch one or twenty catties, but Lin Tao and Lin Zhumin's patience is a little worse, and it is good to be able to catch seven or eight catties a day.

Sandra also used the training ground as an ISI headquarters, issuing commands through the walkie-talkie from time to time. With Yu Songyuan's consent, she set up the second team of the ISI Blood Alliance, and has started centralized training in the secret training base of the ISI to ensure the support of the follow-up personnel of the "Blood Alliance" team.

On the morning of the third day, coach Mao Yankai came to inspect.

Caterpillar, Xie Erna, and Little Ali also followed, and Mao Yankai was mainly concerned about the training of the guards and the Blood Alliance team. "What do you think of them, and will they be able to take on the task of supporting?" Mao Yankai looked around, and he didn't know the bottom of his heart, so he quietly asked Yu Songyuan.

Yu Songyuan had little Ali on his head, and while not letting him make trouble, he said, "This is a very good team, if we have time to train them for two months, this team can make a big difference." Dashuai, in fact, I'm more worried about ......"

"I understand, you mean to say the mujahideen from Xinjiang, my country?"

"Yes, these jihadists recruited by the ISI are okay. I wondered, what will happen to the fanatical 'mujahideen' who have been trained in religious training camps after the war? Yu Songyuan said worriedly and hurriedly.

"This will be a huge challenge for us in the future. Once the battle for the Khyber Pass is complete, you will have to carefully investigate the situation in the various training camps. The MLH team already has a lot of information, and I'll hand it over to you when the time comes. It's just that the country of halal pro-M, Moore will not support our investigation. If it really doesn't work, I'll leave it to Sandra to do it quietly. Mao Yankai said after kissing little Ali.

"In addition, we don't know the situation in the Khyber Pass Canyon yet, and we need intelligence support. On both sides of the canyon, there are large mountains, and the area is vast, and the river valleys are all over the place. After we entered the canyon, it would have been easier said than done to find the squad that had infiltrated the canyon without strong intelligence support. Yu Songyuan said.

"I'm here today, in addition to inspecting, mainly for this purpose." Mao Yankai said.

The caterpillar and Sherna came back from a lap of mules, and Yu Songyuan noticed that Sherna's face was flushed. She was already learning Chinese from the caterpillar, and when she saw that the brothers' team had changed into training clothes, she collected them all, and she wanted to wash them in the river. Yu Songyuan wanted to stop it, but the caterpillar also helped Xie Erna clean up and wanted to take it back to the trading company to wash, so he had to follow them.

"On the Karachi side, is the situation okay, it hasn't been affected, right?" Yu Songyuan asked.

"After a false alarm, the 'lightning' arrived in Karachi, and seeing that we had been well prepared, he did not dare to do anything, but planted a bomb in the car. They were timid and lost a chance. If they attack our sea cargo ships, the losses will be great. Mao Yankai said, "After I came back from Karachi, I also made a special trip to inspect the stronghold of Torham. Khan is ready for you to move in. ”

"On the other side of the Mediterranean, you didn't attack again, did you?"

"It's a matter to be resolved, but not urgently. It is necessary to wait for the completion of the mission to attack the Khyber Pass, and then look at the situation according to the situation. ”

After lunch, Mao Yankai gathered all the two squads to the command tent. Elder Khan also rushed over. Mao Yankai and Shandra held an important joint operations meeting to conduct a comprehensive briefing.

Mao Yankai got straight to the point, "As of today, our preparations are about to be completed. The time is ripe for the brothers and the blood alliance team to enter the valley to fight. Once in the canyon, the 'Nuer Border Team', jointly formed by MLH and ISI, will provide you with comprehensive intelligence and logistical support. ”

It turned out that Noor. Elder Khan is also a senior ISI agent and, like Shandra, is also a core member of the MLH team. Only now do everyone understand that the MLH team is an ace intelligence group secretly formed by Mao Yankai and Moore at the beginning of the war.

Since then, the MLH, known as China's Jasmine, has become the ISI's main support force on the hidden front in the northern border region.

And Noor. Elder Khan has a special ISI intelligence team, which is responsible for mastering intelligence in the mountain pass valley, in the canyon, and inside and outside the national border. When Taylor was in power, he colluded with Gates, Kamilf, and Noor. Elder Khan, on the orders of General Moore, lurked on the border, waiting for the opportunity. MLH is engaged in intelligence, and they are powerless to confront Spatesnaz directly until the Brothers are stationed.

Noor. Elder Khan pointed to the sand table and began to brief on the situation of the opponents on both sides of the border, "Except for the independent 154th Special Operations Detachment (Muslim Battalion) that we are stationed in Jalalabad, so far, the GRU has secretly adjusted its deployment. The Sbetsnaz detachments have formed a complete special operations system throughout the territory of the Shanren Country. ”

This is important information that, if true, would provide the background to the increasingly frequent cross-border attacks in the border areas.

The GRU special forces were originally established to engage in sabotage operations against the enemy, including the search for and elimination of important targets such as enemy missile launchers, headquarters and ammunition depots. In March 1950, by order of the Minister of Defense, Marshal Zhukov, 46 special forces brigades (also known as "special mission brigades") were established in the military districts, under the command of the GRU.

These special forces brigades were trained in strict accordance with the prescribed tasks, and they quickly became a sharp blade for all military regions. On the battlefield of the Shanren Islamic Republic, the GRU initially attached the 40th Army to the independent 469th Reconnaissance Company, which was stationed in Kabul for a long time, and its main mission was to obtain clues about the Shanren Islamic Republic*** organization and eliminate its leaders, officers and activists.

Another Sbyznaz unit, which was the first to enter the Shanren Islamic Republic, was the separate L54th Special Forces Detachment. After completing the task of raiding the presidential palace of the Shanren Islamic Republic at the end of 1979, it has been recuperating in Chilchik, the country. In October 1981, it re-entered the Shanren Islamic Republic and was stationed in the cities of Akchi and then Arbuck.

At the beginning of 1983, the L54th separate special forces detachment was secretly deployed to the city of Jalalabad, mainly against the border between the two countries, and the commander turned out to be Major Stodelevsky and later the famous Colonel Sakhatov. This is a strong force of the GRU, and it is the strongest combat force and the most iron-blooded unit among the combat detachments of Spetsnaz.

It is this terrible force that fights deep into the Kabul River Valley and the Khyber Pass Gorge in the territory of the Halal Country.

But before l982, the 40th Army's main focus was to control towns and communication arteries, and it was not used well enough for special forces. The commander of the 469th Independent Reconnaissance Company was often the commander of an ordinary motorized infantry regiment, and only arranged tactical alert of some important industrial targets, the defense of oil pipelines at mine intersections, etc. As a result, the special forces not only did not play their due role, but even lost their original blood.

From 1983 onwards, the use of special forces improved, and the GRU sent additional special forces units (also known as "special task units") to the 40th Army. For the sake of secrecy, the General Staff of the Red Army deliberately arranged their numbers together with ordinary troops, which well hid the GRU special forces and kept them unknown for a long time.

For example, the 154th Independent Special Forces Detachment (that is, the unit involved in the assassination operation of Amin) is known to the outside world as the 1st Independent Motorized Infantry Battalion. The 177th Independent Special Forces Detachment, known to the outside world as the 2nd Independent Motorized Infantry Battalion, uses the new number in their internal documents and daily life in the Polar Bear Army.

In addition to the 154th Independent Special Forces Detachment and the 469th Independent Reconnaissance Company, which have already been introduced, the deployment of GRU special forces in other places is as follows:

The 177th separate special forces detachment was established in February 1980, and the first commanding palace was Lieutenant Colonel Klingbayev. The department is a combination of the elites of the 16th Special Forces Brigade of the Moscow Military District and the 22nd Special Forces Brigade of the Central Asian Military District. In October 1981, it entered the Shanren Islamic Republic with the 154th Independent Special Forces Detachment. Deployed in Ghazni, guarding the most important highway arteries.

The 173rd separate special forces detachment, formed in February 1980, was formed on the basis of the 12th special forces brigade of the Transcaucasian Military District by order of Defense Minister Ustinov. Beginning at the end of 1982, it was deployed in Kandahar, in the southern part of the Shanren Islamic Republic.

Kandahar is the second largest city in the Hill Islamic Republic with a large population and industrial base. The region, which borders the Halal Country, is a must for arms caravans, and is a key area for exchanges between the Shanren Islamic Republic and the countries to the southwest, and it has been a strategic point since ancient times.

After the 173rd Independent Special Forces Detachment was stationed, an area of more than 400 kilometers north of Kandahar and the cities of Quetta and Khannozan, the Khojak Grand Canyon, the Germain and Bolan Passes, and the Suleiman Mountains at an altitude of more than 3,000 meters have been blocked and cut off.
