I guessed correctly...... The Soviets knew that the vast majority of our troops were equipped with AK74s and were very combat-ready...... Otherwise, it would not have been possible to defeat the Soviet Airborne Forces in the desert with their armor thrown away in a single shot, even when the Soviet army was defenseless.

From this, the Soviets guessed that the troops stationed in the Jehio Valley at this time were our ...... Previously sneaked into Kabul and routed a mechanized infantry battalion, then blew up the troops in the Salang tunnels, and more importantly...... Both of these operations caused the Soviet army to have to stop the ongoing sweep and disrupted the overall plan of the Soviet army.

Plus, this time we snatched the valley of Higio, which they were about to eat...... This can be described as a new hatred and an old hatred, and it is strange that the commander of the Soviet army is not so angry that he jumped to his feet and scolded his mother.

Of course...... I didn't see the angry look of the Soviet commander, but I did feel it...... Soon after the retreat of the Soviet troops, batches of artillery shells soon came from a distance, followed by several aviation incendiary bombs...... It only blew up that part of the valley like a mountain of flames.

Fortunately, we had expected this for a long time, and the area of this valley was also very large...... Fifty kilometers long, with an average width of two kilometers...... In short, it is a large area, and it takes a whole day to walk from one end to the other.

So, we just need to casually move to another place...... The Soviet bombing was in vain.

But the Soviet bombing was brutal...... But they didn't send troops to wipe us out......

Needless to say, I know what the reason is...... The Soviets had fought so hard in the previous sweeps that they now did not have enough ammunition to deal with us, and the Soviet commanders were not stupid...... Before, it took so much effort just to fight a guerrilla army. Although it almost fell, it fell short in the end...... Well now. The Valley of Higio has been replaced by a more combat-ready force. How much effort does it take to take it down?

So that's all up...... It's better to wait until the ammunition is ready next time and then solve it slowly, anyway, the location of this enemy is now clear.

In fact, I think the Soviet commander is thinking wrong...... Although our combat effectiveness is significantly stronger than that of the Pesur guerrillas, the problem is that we are not familiar with the terrain of the Higio Valley, so ...... If the Soviets really fight with some ammunition at this time, they will fight us again...... I'm afraid that we may really not be able to bear it, after all, our air defense capability can be said to be quite weak at this time...... This can be said to be our hard wound!

Of course, the Soviet commander had no way of knowing whether we were familiar with the terrain of the Shigio Valley, so from his point of view...... It's also right to choose not to fight!

So this gives us a breather......

The first thing I did was immediately get the team of mules and horses that had already been prepared at the base to start sending supplies to the valley, including food, weapons, ammunition, etc...... At this time, the mountain road that was built before played a big role...... As you can imagine. If Pakistan had only two mountain roads to the Higio Valley as usual, then the Soviets would have only one ...... There are many ways to do this, such as building fortifications at the commanding heights next to the mountain roads, and if you want to pass through the mountain roads, you have to lay the high grounds, and for example, laying mines on the mountain roads...... This is a simple and quick way, just like Aduzai said, the Soviet helicopters can lay mines, send helicopters to scatter the mines on the mountain road...... This mountain road is basically impassable.

But in reality, it is not so simple, because the Soviet mines are not adapted to the terrain here in Afghanistan...... At this time, the Soviet Union used helicopters to lay two kinds of mines, one is the ordinary round. This kind of mine is heavier, and this thing would not have been a problem if it had been used in the Soviet Union...... Because the USSR was snowy a lot of the time. The helicopter threw the mine to the ground...... The mines naturally sink into the snow.

But here's the problem......

The ground in Afghanistan is mostly rocky, so this mine is thrown on the ground in Afghanistan...... That is, the "horn" fell to pieces or was detonated on the spot...... A mine that explodes on the spot is not called a mine, it is called a bomb. And because it's large, it didn't detonate even if it didn't break...... Such a flat and round thing is placed in the middle of the road like a wind on a bald man's head, who would step on it!

The other is butterfly-shaped, and it is also plastic, which contains liquid explosives, which cannot be controlled by metal controllers...... The force of the explosion is to blow off the sole of the target's foot...... Pesul was injured by such mines.

But it's very tricky...... The plastic used for this mine is all green...... If this was used in the Soviet Union, there would be no problem, except for the snow, there were meadows and forests...... This green butterfly bomb was thrown inside, and it was really a natural cover color.

But this is Afghanistan...... There is a green thing lying on the gray-yellow earth or stones, and anyone with eyes can see it! The reason why Pesur was blown up by this thing was completely because it was at night, and there were many Soviet troops lurking around who did not dare to use flashlights......

So the Soviet mine blockade did not cause us much trouble...... According to Zhao Jingping, who was in charge of logistics and transportation, the guerrillas of the mule and horse brigade used the mines as targets for marksmanship...... When I saw a few mines on the road, I felt my gun and "banged" a few times......

There is another reason...... The mines of the Soviet troops were also completely insufficient to block all our mountain roads...... This is also due to the contradiction that the Soviet army has to block too many mountain roads and the logistical transportation capacity is very tight.

In fact, the lack of logistical capacity has always been a malaise of the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan......

At this time, the Soviet Union actually fell into a strange circle, in order to protect the logistics supply line, it required more equipment and more troops, and more equipment and more troops needed more supplies, and more supplies were needed to transport more supplies and more troops to protect it......

As a result, the Soviet Union was in a state of inadequate supplies throughout the invasion of Afghanistan...... In the end, there was no way, and the Soviet Union could only consider promoting the su zhì of the soldiers sent to Afghanistan without increasing the number of soldiers, because a good soldier was the same as a poor soldier...... The supplies they consume are almost the same, but good soldiers can obviously increase the combat effectiveness of the entire army. (To be continued......)
