Chapter Ninety-One: Directional Blasting

The Panjshir guerrillas had always been active in the Panjshir Valley, controlling the Soviet land passage into Afghanistan, launching attacks from time to time, inflicting heavy losses on the transport troops, and it was precisely because of this that the 40th Army made up its mind to completely annihilate this guerrilla force.

Having learned the lesson of the last time, they resorted to the method of blocking all mountain passes, closing the gates and beating the dogs, hoping to eliminate the Panjshir guerrillas in one fell swoop, but now, they have opened the gap and drilled out of the encirclement, Badakhshan province is full of mountains, God knows where the guerrillas will hide?

Moreover, when did the Jalalabad guerrillas go around the encirclement? He also rescued the Panjshir guerrillas and let himself wander around the mountains for half a day in vain!

Thinking of this, Tiyako could no longer hide his anger and looked at Kurnieva: "Eva, you let us delay the fighter!" ”

Kurnyeva can ignore the accusations of the internal officers of the 40th Army, because it is not a system, she belongs to the KGB, but the special forces of the GRU are subordinate to the KGB, and in the face of Jiyako's accusations, Kurnyeva must be solemn.

"Don't worry, Your Excellency Ji Yake, they can't escape, and they are mixed up again, so it's easier for us to catch them all." Kurnyeva said.

"Do you know where they're hiding?" Jiyako asked.

"I don't know yet, but I'll know soon, I need to ask the headquarters to send a special plane." Kurnyeva said quietly.

A medium-sized helicopter took off from an air base in Tajikistan, with a five-bladed propeller stirring the air current, making a whirring sound, and a huge crew cabin, like a flying hippopotamus. This is exactly the Mi-8 helicopter named Hippopotamus by NATO.

Unlike the regular Mi-8, the helicopter's cockpit is flanked by rectangular wireless covers, and an antenna array of six cross-polar antennas can be seen outside. This is a Mi-8PPA special electronic warfare helicopter.

After taking off from the base, the helicopter crossed the border and entered Afghan airspace, over the mountains of the north. Constantly circling, six cross-shaped antennas, receiving electromagnetic signals from time to time.

Damn the mountains! In the plains, it is easy to find the signal emitted by the radio source, but now, helicopters have to shuttle non-stop, searching from valley to valley, not to mention the signal from the small watch radioactive source, which is the military radio of the ground forces. They are often ineffective due to the barriers of mountainous areas.

In the cockpit, several electronic warfare officers and soldiers sat on their seats, staring closely at the huge circular display screen in front of them, and suddenly, an electronic warfare officer and soldier saw a bright spot on the screen.

Discover the target! A valley fifteen kilometers away!

"Raven calls GRU, raven calls GRU." The electronic warfare officer and soldier said into the microphone on the headset: "The target has been found, the valley five kilometers north of the Lion's Pass in Badakhshan Province. ”

Putting down the radio, Jiyako had a grim smile on his face: "Our mission. It was the total annihilation of these two guerrillas, now. We interspersed with valleys to the east. ”

"Your Excellency Ji Yake, don't we notify the 108th Division?" Kurnyeva asked.

"Those wastes, who have not even completed the task of eliminating the guerrillas in the encirclement, can they be counted on? One of our special operations brigades is enough. Jiyako said.

"That Mhammad is very cunning, please be careful." Kurnyeva said.

"Hmph." Tiyako made a sound in his nose and took his troops with him. Slowly disappeared from the sight of Kurnyeva, having already obtained the accurate whereabouts of the other party, Jiyako did not need Kurnyeva as a guide.

Kulnieva always had an ominous premonition, that Mhammad was simply too godly. Every time, you can find your own plan, but Tiyako leads a brigade, all of which are soldiers with rich combat experience, to encircle and suppress the fleeing Afghan guerrillas, at most they don't catch up, what danger can there be?

A few years ago, when the Soviet Union decided to help stabilize the political situation in Afghanistan, the first troops to be dispatched included the GRU, and many veterans in his team had participated in the battles at that time, and this time, in order to fight in the mountains of Afghanistan, a considerable number of his troops were Tajiks and Uzbeks, who could speak Afghan and were familiar with mountain operations.

If it weren't for the limited number of helicopters that would have allowed his entire force to be transported over, he would have wanted to mobilize helicopters and quickly reach the mountains there to encircle and annihilate these two guerrillas.

Now, what worries him the most is that he is too late to go, and the guerrillas have already left, but as long as there is a Mi-8 electronic reconnaissance plane overhead, which constantly intercepts the signals of radio beacons, he can always get the whereabouts of the guerrillas.

In this way, Tiyako's troops trudged through the mountains, along the rugged paths, constantly advancing.

At the same time, Tiyako is also cautious, in order to prevent the Afghan guerrillas from playing tricks, he also got in touch with Bagram, more than a dozen hinds, will arrive there at the same time, even if the Afghan guerrillas have any traps, under the joint strike of the open field, the two guerrillas will be quickly crushed.

The mountain roads are so rugged that even armored vehicles cannot pass, so they have to rely on foot, or 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 flown away, the second one had not yet flown in, and Tiyako only knew that for three hours in the afternoon, the guerrillas had not moved, and only in the last hour they had left the place.

For an hour, they couldn't go far, and when the second Mi-8 flew in and re-indicated their target, it happened to be night, and at that time, a sneak attack on the Afghan guerrillas was enough to wipe them out!

"Brigade Commander, there are high mountains on both sides here, should we send someone up to take a look?" At Tiyako's side, a battalion commander said to him.

The terrain is too dangerous, and if there are Afghan guerrillas in ambush on both sides, they will be very passive.

"I'm still hoping for them to come out from both sides." Tiyako said, looking at the peaks on either side, his eyes sly with cunning.

If they really show their heads at this time, it is simply looking for death, overhead, the rumbling sound has been from far and near, several hind helicopters are circling here, as long as the Afghan guerrillas appear, it is the rhythm of being beaten to the death.

Although it seemed that he had become a decoy, Ji Yake was not afraid at all, and he completely had the advantage.

The hillsides on both sides were quiet, the wind whined through the valley, and as the sun went down, the temperature began to drop again.

Damn hell place! Although the winter in the Soviet Union is also cold, it does not change as drastically here, at noon, it is so hot that you can only wear a single coat, and in the middle of the night, you have to wear a padded jacket, the temperature difference is too great.

Jiyako cursed and continued to walk forward, the helicopter above his head hovered, and the troops behind him formed a long snake dozens of meters long, quickly following up.

"Your Excellency Mhammad, the Soviets have indeed entered the valley." At the end of the valley, looking across with a military telescope of high magnification, Massoud whispered to Mhamad beside him.

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

When Mhammad saw the watch that Massoud was wearing, he knew that something was wrong, and carefully opened the back cover of the watch to see the battery hidden inside, and the watch chain was the antenna.

In this era, there is no advanced positioning device like that of later generations, the GPS navigation satellites of the Americans are still in the experimental stage, the first satellite of the GLONASS system of the Soviets will not fly into the sky until a few months later, and the integrated circuits have not yet formed the scale of later generations.

This thing is just a simple radio beacon transmitter that constantly emits signals, reports its location, and how to locate it, it needs more equipment.

When the Soviets were spotted flying in the mountains with a helicopter with a cross antenna, Mhammad knew that the Soviets were indeed looking for their own traces, and there were two options in front of Mhammad, either destroy the watch and let the signal disappear completely, or use the watch to set a huge trap for the Soviets.

The Soviets inflicted heavy losses on Massoud's partisans, and now, now that he had a new plan, Massoud did not hesitate to agree to Massoud's plan.

Now, as they do, the Soviets have fallen into their trap.

Although the Soviets were patrolling back and forth with the Soviets overhead, Massoud was still confident that this time it was no longer bullets and shells that killed the Soviets, but... Stones!

"Let's do it." Mhammad said.

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

"Boom! Boom, boom! "The sound of explosions resounded in the sky, and the earth shook.

The explosion was not on its own path, and when the voices from both sides were heard, Jiako's special operations brigade immediately half-crouched on the ground, pulled the bolt, and aimed at the peaks on both sides.

When they looked over, they were stunned.

Oh God, what's that?

"Gollum, Gollum." Countless boulders, rolling on the hillside, hitting the ground with violent vibrations, and smoke still rising from the hillside, is exactly where the explosion occurred.

This explosion did not explode around them, but it played a far better role than an explosion around them!

Their whole bodies trembled involuntarily, staring at the boulders rolling on both sides, and they actually forgot to run. Those boulders completely occupy their retina. (To be continued......)
