In fact, without the order of Marshal Akhromeyev, just after learning that Jalalabad was captured by the Free Afghan Army, in Kabul, the largest reserve of the 40th Army, a mechanized battalion, was dispatched, and the wheeled BTR infantry fighting vehicles were quickly moving on the road from Kabul to Jalalabad, and it took only three hours to gallop to the periphery of Jalalabad.

This is the latest BTR-80 infantry fighting vehicle, which was only equipped last year, and the Afghan garrison was the first army to receive this infantry fighting vehicle, even surpassing the West German garrison.

Compared with the original BTR-70, this armored vehicle was converted to a diesel engine, which is more suitable for operation in the mountains, and after several years of testing on the battlefield in Afghanistan, the initial heavy and fuel-intensive T-62 tanks have been almost all redeployed, and they need this light and strong infantry fighting vehicle more than tanks.

The 8*8 wheeled infantry fighting vehicle drove this reserve to Jalalabad quickly, and the Afghan rebels who had been hiding in the mountains finally dared to come out and fight head-on with their own side!

As long as you leave the mountains, you can easily exterminate them! Therefore, the Soviet garrison did not feel how terrible it was for this army that suddenly appeared in Jalalabad, they were afraid that the Afghans would suddenly run away and let their side pounce.

The traffic was rolling and getting closer and closer to Jalalabad, and the huge wheels of the BTR infantry fighting vehicles, pressed against the road, rolled up countless dust.

"Boom!" At this moment, suddenly, under the wheels of one of the infantry fighting vehicles at the front, a violent explosion occurred, in which the armor was blown open, and the entire front half of the hull was blown open. They were all reduced to pieces, and the soldiers inside had already died before they even had time to shout.

Roadside bomb! The Afghan guerrillas preferred the way to do it! They want to use guò as a way to delay their own actions! For this haunting method, the commander of the mechanized battalion, Alexander, said on the radio: "Attention, all off the road!" ”

Afghan guerrillas plant roadside bombs. It must have been buried on the road, and now, when you drive down the road, you won't be hit by a bomb again.

Hearing his order, the infantry fighting vehicles behind turned around and drove down the road on both sides.

Four rows of wheels, the front two rows are steering wheels, and as the two rows of wheels rotate, the body begins to steer. From the top of the road, they moved down quickly.

Down, there is a wide attacking surface, not just the width of the road, but a slight slower speed.

Just as the infantry fighting vehicles drove down the road, all they heard was "Boom, boom!" "The ringing continues, and the ringing rings. One infantry fighting vehicle after another, just like that, was blown up.

Damn it. You have fallen for their tricks! Alexander realized that the situation was not good, and the other side had predicted that after the first armored vehicle was blown up, he would attack from both sides, so not only in front of the mines, but also on both sides of the road. Mines have also been laid!

What to do? Wait for the sappers to arrive and see what is the width of the mines on both sides? Otherwise, it will have to be withdrawn along the path just now.

More than a dozen infantry fighting vehicles were lost, and the rest of the armored vehicles have already stopped. They have realized that the situation is not good, where exactly are there mines on the road ahead?

They could not move forward without being sure where the mines were, and a mechanized infantry battalion with more than forty armored vehicles, now they had lost a third, and this loss was actually caused by mines.

Alexander looked at the damaged mines around him, gritted his teeth and said, "Get out of the car and go on foot!" ”

What is buried on the ground must be anti-tank mines, which will only explode if the tracks are pressed on or the tires are crushed, and even if ordinary people step on them, they will not be able to explode due to insufficient pressure.

In order to prevent the Afghan rebels from having time to escape, they can only rush to the ground as best they can, and since they can't take infantry fighting vehicles now, they can only march on foot!

A cart, that is, an infantry squad, hearing Alexander's order, the infantry squad opened the back cover, jumped out of the infantry fighting vehicle, and then, lined up and ran towards the front.

Run, run, be quick, catch up with those rebels!

After running a few kilometers out of breath, scattered houses appeared on both sides, which were already the suburbs of Jalalabad.

A straight road, leading directly to the city center, hundreds of Soviet soldiers, ran in unison on this road, they did not notice, in the houses on both sides, at some point, on the walls, on the roof, slowly stretched out the muzzles of black holes.

Osama held a 12.7-millimeter machine gun on top of a civilian house and watched the Soviets rush to their deaths, smiling as he watched them. The mines on the highway are also his masterpieces.

Seeing that all the Soviet soldiers entered his encirclement, Osama shouted: "Fire!" ”

With his order, on both sides, countless firepower, poured into the streets, and the Soviet soldiers, who were running, were still thinking about how to catch up with the Afghan rebels, and here they had already caught up and were surrounded.

Bullets poured down, Soviet soldiers fell screaming, and the fire on both sides was so dense that almost half of them were machine guns!

Alexander made a mistake by breaking away from the protection of infantry fighting vehicles and going straight to the city, where he was easily ambushed by Afghan guerrillas hiding in buildings on both sides!

"Quick, retreat!" Alexander shouted, taking the rest of the people with him, trying to retreat, but alas, there was no chance.

"Boom, boom." From the front of the courtyard, there was a roar, and then, a steel monster directly broke down the fence from the courtyard and rushed out.

M551 tank! The thick and short barrel is the best sign, the side of this tank has been painted with the logo of the Free Afghan Army, and the side-by-side machine gun on the side of its turret spits out tongues of fire at the Soviet soldiers on this side.

The back road has been blocked, and when they got off the armored car, they didn't carry the weapons to attack the fortifications at all, and in the face of such a steel monster, they had no ability to resist at all.

The fire on both sides was still strafing, surrounded on all sides, and the Soviet soldiers had no way to retreat.

Alexander's chest hurt suddenly, his body was pushed backwards with great force, and when he looked down, blood was already gushing in his chest, a 12.7mm machine gun bullet hit the lobe of his lungs, he tried hard to breathe, but all he breathed was blood, his lungs were flooded with his own blood, they couldn't breathe, when he opened his last sentient eyes and looked around, he only saw corpses everywhere, and there were few people who could stand up.

It's not a small army of Afghan rebels, it's a large army! If they want to stay in Jalalabad, they will only be wiped out!

His eyes could no longer be opened, his body became relaxed, and he was finally free.

"Hmph, the combat effectiveness of the Soviets has always been so poor." Osama came down from his position and couldn't help but say as he saw that the streets were already bleeding and all the Soviet soldiers were blocking it.

"Osama, you still command well, you judged the movement of the Soviets in advance." Hadim on the side followed and said, accustomed to the ravages of the Soviets, and this time he beat the Soviets, Hadim also felt very enjoyable.

Osama's mines were planted so carefully that the Soviets had to abandon their infantry fighting vehicles and come down to engage the Free Afghan Army on foot, only to be ambushed.

"It's nothing, although it's a street fight, but, in my eyes, it's no different from our previous battles, as long as you look at these houses as our mountains, then it's the same." Osama said.

Osama said this, and couldn't help but make Hardim happy, can this be compared to the mountain? "Report, what are we going to do with these corpses?" A fighter asked Osama.

"Does that need to be said?" Osama said, "What did we do before? ”

"Peel."

"That's alive, dead man, when did I let you skin it?" Osama asked.

"Do tricks."

"That's right, make a thunderbolt, move these corpses away, move them to various intersections, and make them all thunder!" Osama said, "The rest of you, come with me and get those infantry fighting vehicles here!" ”

The Soviets all got off the infantry fighting vehicles, and abandoned those infantry fighting vehicles here, leaving only the driver, and when the battle was over, the remaining Soviet drivers had already jumped out of the armored vehicles and ran, and those infantry fighting vehicles, which happened to be driven by their own side, acted as a mobile defense force in the street fighting.

After Osama finished speaking, he walked towards the infantry fighting vehicle in the distance, and the guerrillas here moved the corpse away, moved it to various intersections, pulled the grenade loop, and placed it under the corpse, and a simple trick mine was made.

Osama approached the infantry fighting vehicles, and the mines frightened them, but in fact, these were all mines, and if they continued to drive forward, the front would be completely fine.

These wheeled infantry fighting vehicles of the Soviets are better than the tracked ones, adapted to the mountainous areas of Afghanistan, consume less fuel, run fast, but the weapons are too backward, the main weapon is a 14.5 mm machine gun, not even a small-caliber artillery.

Standing on this kind of infantry fighting vehicle, Osama suddenly had an idea, put on the clothes of the Soviets, hide in the infantry fighting vehicle, the Soviets absolutely do not know whether the people inside are friendly or enemies, in this way, they are fishing in troubled waters, driving this infantry fighting vehicle, in the middle of the Soviets, suddenly attacking, can skillfully beat the Soviets!

Yes, that's it! Thinking of this, a smile appeared on Osama's face. (To be continued......)
