"But don't worry too much about these problems for the time being!" Commander Zhang said: "The Soviet Union has suffered heavy losses due to several attacks on the Xigio Valley, and in addition, they have begun to implement a policy of winning over people's hearts...... So there has also been a relaxation of policy towards the Higio Valley......"

As he spoke, Commander Zhang handed me a document, pointed to one of the lines and said, "Look...... The Soviets wanted to sign an agreement with the Shigio Valley for mutual non-aggression...... Even the Soviets would supply the Šigio Valley, and when other guerrillas clashed with the Šigio Valley, the Soviets would assist in the Šigio Valley. For this matter...... What do you think? ”

"Old trick!" I took the document and looked at it, and said, "On the surface, it seems that there is only good and no harm in the Shigio Valley, and the Soviets will not attack the Shigio Valley, but will help in all ways...... But in fact, it was an attempt to isolate the Chigio Valley from the ranks of the partisans...... Once this agreement was signed in the Higio Valley, it was natural that when the other guerrillas were besieged by the Soviet army, they would not be able to help, or even contain the guerrillas' stragglers...... This would allow the Soviets to take little into account the role of the Higio Valley in the next clearance, and at the same time deprive the Higio Valley of its strength and become hostile to the guerrillas. The result...... Over time, the Shigio Valley will get farther and farther away from the partisans, and at the end of the day, they can only throw themselves into the arms of the Soviets! ”

Commander Zhang smiled and nodded: "I really can't fool you about anything...... Therefore, we are also firmly opposed to the signing of this agreement between the Shigio Valley and the Soviets. So something happened...... Among the guerrillas, there is a voice that our Chinese soldiers only hope that Afghanistan and the Soviet Union will fight as fiercely as possible, and do not want Afghanistan to get peace at all......"

"Oh!" I smiled...... The Soviets are doing this trick again, and they seem to have used this trick to divide me when I was in Afghanistan. And we have some problems inside the valley of Higio. I didn't expect this trick to be used by the Soviet devils, and then used it again, and it was fun to use one or the other.

But then again...... It seems that this trick will never go out of fashion. Because the most fearful thing about a team's cooperation is mutual distrust. Especially the teamwork between the two countries.

This time...... I believe that there will be many guerrillas in the valley of Shigio who only see the immediate benefits, so they will not see the matter clearly, and will be moved.

But I think in the end, the Soviet devils still didn't succeed, otherwise Commander Zhang's tone of voice would not be like this now.

Sure enough, I heard Commander Zhang continue: "That's why I said that Hassan is a good comrade...... He stood very firmly on our side in this matter, and even defended the public with the infamy of the Chinese's lackeys, and even shot several leaders who took the lead in making trouble...... That's why I put this matter down! ”

Chinese lackeys...... I'm afraid that this is another hat that the Soviet spies planted in the guerrillas gave Hassan......

Not to mention, it really looks like that...... For example, in the current case, on the surface, it seems that Hassan is selling out the interests of Afghanistan and only thinking about the interests of China...... The Soviets are going to compromise with the Higio Valley. Moreover, the conditions offered can almost be said to be a show of weakness or even surrender, so what reason is there not to agree?

There is only one possibility if these conditions are not agreed...... That is, I don't want a peaceful life in the valley of Sigio, and I don't want Sigio to live a good life...... Many of the guerrillas stationed in the valley of Sigio were tired of this kind of war, and now peace has finally arrived...... But it was destroyed by Hassan's collusion with the Chinese!

So...... It is sometimes difficult to tell who is loyal and who is traitor......

For example, in the era of the Anti-Japanese War in our country, there were also many traitors who betrayed the country under the banner of "saving the country with curves...... Not to mention, at that time, when the level of education was low, there were many people who had an instinctive antipathy and disgust for war and death, as well as a fear of the Japanese in their hearts...... It's really easy to accept this theory of "curve saving the country...... That is to say, they are obviously doing a traitorous business, but they want to call it "saving the country".

Like this is now in the Higio Valley...... Hassan, who really thinks about Afghan interests, has been labeled as a "betrayal of Afghan interests" and "a lackey of the Chinese". And it is even possible that the actual betrayal of Afghan interests was itself some of the leaders of Soviet spies...... But he became the vanguard of national salvation.

We're outsiders now, so we know who's right and who's wrong...... But if you are really in it. If you are also a member of the Afghan guerrillas, you really can't tell which side is right.

At this time...... I think Hassan did the right thing......

Because when rumors like this start to breed and there is a strong camouflage...... This is not the time to talk about democracy and freedom of speech. It is necessary to use high-pressure policies to uproot this momentum with lightning speed. Otherwise...... It will only allow this kind of rumor to spread more and more widely among the troops...... At worst, it will affect the morale of the military in the Higio Valley and make the guerrillas not want to fight, or at worst, another pro-Soviet force will be formed to overthrow Hassan's leadership.

"I've told you so much about the situation in Afghanistan......" Commander Zhang leaned back in his chair and said, "On the one hand, because the situation in Afghanistan and the defense of the Higio Valley were all built by you, you need to know the current situation. On the other hand...... It's because our investment in Afghanistan is now paying off! ”

"Oh! The commander is saying...... The Battle of Mount Faka? ”

"That's right!" Commander Zhang nodded: "The Battle of Faka Mountain did not continue in the end...... The most fundamental reason for this is that the Soviet Union is mired in Afghanistan and the Soviets are not sure when they will be able to withdraw from Afghanistan...... This also proves that your theory is right, and it is better to put the war in another country! ”

Speaking of this, Commander Zhang took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "To be honest...... When you first put forward this opinion, there were still many cadres who held opposing views, and they mainly considered it from several aspects. One is that our country is also a poor country. And he is still fighting with the Yue devils. Is it necessary to invest the already scarce troops and funds in Afghanistan to fight for other countries? On the other hand, there was a fear that it would anger the Soviet Union...... But now, they have nothing to say! ”

"Hmm!" At this time, I realized that my suggestion had caused such a big controversy at the top.

"Good fight!" Commander Zhang said: "From now on...... The whole situation has changed for the better, the possibility of the Soviet devils and Vietnam attacking our country from the north and south is getting smaller and smaller, and the initiative on the battlefield has gradually shifted to us...... But we can't take it lightly...... The Yankees have played a great role in this situation, and the most urgent task for us at present is ...... It is necessary to reform the army into an army that can adapt to modern warfare, and even if there are no Yankees, we will have the ability to keep the enemy out of the country. Let a superpower like the Soviet devils not dare to attack us at every turn, understand? ”

"Understood!" I answered, but then asked with some confusion, "Commander...... Don't you need me to report on the battlefield this time? ”

Commander Zhang said with a smile: "In this battle, I am more interested in whether you can skillfully use the tactics of your synthetic battalion to surrender...... This was verified as early as when you rescued those two correspondents from the Vietnamese army, so this battle of Phaka Hill ...... I don't have anything to care about! ”

"Oh!" That's when I heard that, I understood...... In fact, Commander Zhang is more concerned about whether our new tactics are practical on the battlefield, so that in the future, these tactics can be gradually popularized in the troops, as for which battles they will be applied to...... Commander Zhang didn't really have much interest.

But that's right...... Cadres of Commander Zhang's level are more concerned about this kind of strategy and direction issues, as for what kind of battle...... It's okay to solve it at the division level!

"Coming back?" When I stepped into the dormitory door, I found that Zhang Fan was already waiting for me in the dormitory.

"This time...... I didn't get hurt! Zhang Fan asked while looking me up and down, this seems to have become her habit...... At first, I thought it was her professional habit as a nurse. But later I learned that Lu Dao is actually like this for other military families, and every time they meet, see if there are any missing arms and legs. Then ask if there are any internal injuries.

I'm afraid that this is the sorrow of being a soldier begging for a living on the battlefield.

"Nope!" I replied easily and said with relief: "I am a battalion commander now, and I spend most of my time in the rear commanding, there is no danger, don't worry!" ”

Zhang Fan sighed: "It would be nice if this was the case...... But what I've heard is that you always like to take a helicopter to the nearest command! ”

I couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then I was angry: "Damn, which rabbit cub sold me, I'll settle accounts with him!" ”

Zhang Fan burst out laughing: "Look at what you said...... Comrades know that I am not an outsider, and I also spent some time in the synthesis camp, have you forgotten? I've done paperwork...... They can also be said to be my comrades-in-arms, when you report to the commander, I am anxious to ask about your situation, can they not say? ”

"It's not a big deal!" I said, "Our helicopter is flying in the sky, and the devils can't hit ......."

Zhang Fan shook his head and did not speak.

In fact, she is clear about the condition of Naogo, as a medical worker...... It was common for this helicopter to transport a few wounded, so she knew that even if she didn't face the enemy, she would be in trouble at every turn, not to mention that we were still flying over the battlefield.

It's just a little bit dangerous...... Compared to the rain of bullets on the battlefield, it is not worth mentioning at all, so in my mind, it is indeed safe, but in Zhang Fan's mind, it is still dangerous.

But then again, in a woman's heart...... There will always be "unease", and the safest thing is to tie it to your side and don't go anywhere, so this will never be able to achieve unity.

"Xiao Feng!" Zhang Fan was silent for a while before he spoke.

"Hmm!" I couldn't help but be stunned when I heard this, Zhang Fan hadn't spoken like this for a long time, as if he had made some major decision.

Sure enough, Zhang Fan then stared at me and said, "Let's get married!" ”

"What?" When I heard this, my head exploded with a bang...... got married, although I thought about living with Zhang Fan for the rest of my life, but ...... This is marriage!

"What? You don't want to? Looking at my strange expression, Zhang Fan's face was full of grievances.

"No...... No! I hurriedly explained, "How could I not want to? But...... You see, this is the ...... There are many things in the army......"

"When did you run out of business?" Zhang Fan asked rhetorically: "I always thought that you would be able to rest for a while after you finished this task, but I waited for one task after another...... So I get it, you never have a free time! ”

What Zhang Fan said makes sense, so I don't know how to answer it.

After a long while, Zhang Fan sighed and said, "I know how to do...... You are because the battlefield is dangerous, and you don't want to drag me down if there are any three strengths and two weaknesses...... But I think clearly, even if we don't get married now, I'm still worried all day long, don't you still drag me down? What's the difference between this and the drag after marriage?! ”

In fact, what Zhang Fan said was not entirely true, and I did have a little bit of a mind that didn't want to drag Zhang Fan down, but this mind was not strong.

Mainly...... I'm only in my early twenties, and it's too young for a modern person to get married at this age...... Of course, for people in this era, it has long been possible, and now it has not begun to plan for childbearing, and has not yet begun to advocate late marriage and late childbearing...... There are more people in their twenties who have children.

"On the contrary, after getting married......" As soon as he opened his mouth, Zhang Fan realized that he had missed his mouth, so he stopped talking.

I soon realized that there was a follow-up to Zhang Fan's words, so I chased after me and asked, "What will happen after you get married?" ”

"Nothing?" Zhang Fan avoided my gaze, looking a little flustered, she was not a good liar.

"Say it!" I didn't stop there: "You want to get married for other purposes...... Is it? ”

"I ......" Zhang Fan glared at me hatefully, and in desperation, he whispered his original intention: "After getting married...... I want my dad to keep you in the base, or you can be transferred to another unit as a regiment commander, and the regiment commander doesn't have to go to the battlefield to command! ”

I could only smile wryly when I heard this...... Although Zhang Fan's idea is not realistic, let's not talk about the importance of our synthetic battalion mission, even if I marry Zhang Fan and become Commander Zhang's son-in-law, I'm afraid that Commander Zhang will still not do this.

But I can't say what Zhang Fan is not, because her idea is actually very simple...... It's all you can to get me out of that battlefield. (To be continued......)
