What happened next was exactly what I feared, and in a few days it was time for us to get to work.

Naturally, we don't know how to contact the Afghan guerrillas...... We don't even know where the Afghan guerrillas are...... Moreover, I also learned from Ranana that there were dozens of Afghan guerrilla groups, large and small, ranging from a few thousand to a few hundred, and most of them were fighting guerrilla warfare against the Soviet army in the mountainous areas of Afghanistan, and only a small part fled into Pakistan because they were being pursued by the Soviet army or government forces.

So...... Pakistan must be the middleman.

The whole process of the mission was as follows: first, the Afghan guerrillas were contacted by the Pakistani side and informed them that there was such a base in Peshawar that could provide them with weapons and conduct the necessary training free of charge. Then, depending on the situation, military advisers were arranged for them to guide the guerrillas in combat.

At this time, the guerrillas had to make a decision whether to choose American-style equipment or power-type equipment......

This decision is crucial for a force and, once decided, generally cannot be changed...... This is because even the guerrillas know that it is very important for a unit to unify its equipment, otherwise if both Soviet-style equipment and American-style equipment are used, there will be a great pressure on logistics due to the fact that ammunition and parts are not universal, and this is particularly important for guerrillas who have difficulty in logistical supply.

But obviously...... Not many partisans chose to use Soviet-style equipment, which was also ours......

However, it seems that this is not a problem with Soviet-style equipment, but a problem with Chinese-style equipment...... China is neighboring to Pakistan and Afghanistan, and China and Pakistan are super friendly countries. So of course, China's weapons and equipment will go to these countries...... For example, at the time of the Second Indo-Pakistani War. China has provided Pakistan with a large number of 59 tanks.

Of course. The tanks in 59 have all been assisted, and other small arms such as 56 Chong and 56 semi-natural will not be missing.

But...... We have used these weapons ourselves in counterattacks, and we know what the quality is, so it is no wonder that others do not have confidence in our weapons. Although the 1,000 assault rifles we brought with us were all AK47s handed over from the battlefield......

So...... Although our base is well built, no one has come to ...... On the Yankees' side, however, it was crowded, and it didn't take long for guerrillas to sign up with broken guns on their backs...... As for us, there is no one at all.

Let's take a few of them...... I'm still here to ask for directions! As soon as they heard that we were Chinese troops, they turned around and left......

Finally, in the afternoon, twenty people wearing white hats and long robes arrived...... They do look like guerrillas.

Soon Sahayde started talking to them, and then excitedly said to me, "Battalion commander...... They were partisans. Say there are more than 1,000 people who want to train with us! ”

"Hey! Business is finally open! Scar jumped up excitedly: "And there are more than a thousand ...... as soon as they come."

However, just as we were happily preparing to start registering the information...... Major Rana also arrived, and then scolded the fellows with a straight face, so frightened that the two dozen or so fled as soon as they smoked.

Just when I was feeling strange, Sahayd explained to me with a wry smile: "Battalion commander...... Those are weapons dealers, and they're here to cheat equipment! ”

"Fuck it!" Scar slammed his military hat to the ground and scolded, "Battalion commander! What do you call that...... We can't give away weapons if we have them! ”

“HI！” At this moment, an American officer with a mustache walked up with a cigar in his mouth, a GI and an interpreter...... The officer glanced at us with a smile as he smoked his cigarette, and then fixed his gaze on me.

"I want to ...... You are Yang Xuefeng! ”

"How do you know my name?" I couldn't help but be a little surprised.

"I'm sorry!" The American officer shook my hand and said, "I'm Colonel Smith, head of the American advisory group...... As for Weishenme, I'll know your name, I did some homework before I came to this place! Knowing how you performed on the battlefield and always wanting to see you in person. Now it's finally happening! ”

"Oh!" I felt a sense of helplessness in my heart, and I could say that I knew nothing about the American Advisory Group. But he knew everything about me...... In this respect, the United States is much better than us in terms of intelligence.

Then I quickly realized...... The reason why this guy said this is that he didn't really admire me, but came to demonstrate against me.

Sure enough, Smith then pretended to have just found out: "Huh...... Haven't you had a guerrilla report yet? ”

I didn't speak, and I was sure that Smith had come to taunt us.

"Need help? Mr. Yang! Smith said, "Oh...... I'm sorry, but I don't know what to call you because you don't have a military rank, so I have to use 'sir'! ”

“xiexie！” I said, "Not yet!" ”

"Hmm!" Smith smiled, "Mr. Yang...... We have a common goal, which is to fight the Soviets with armed guerrillas, so we are not enemies, we should be friends...... I don't want to rob all the guerrillas, but you know that...... It's their choice! ”

"What the hell are you trying to say?"

"What I would say is ......" Smith said, "such a mission as the Military Advisory Group...... It's not just about being able to fight, it's about equipment, money, and strength to back it up, understand? ”

Saying that, he shook his head at us and walked away triumphantly, only to be so angry that Scar's faces were blue and red for a while, if I hadn't stopped them, I was afraid that they would have stepped forward and beaten up this arrogant guy.

Of course, you can't fight...... Because as Smith said, we and the United States are now friends rather than enemies, both internationally and in the two bases in Peshawar...... Our goals are all the same.

The problem is ...... It's as if we've been left to the sidelines.

"Battalion commander, what shall we do now?" Zhao Jingping asked.

"What to do?" Scar said, "Behold me...... Let's just go to Afghanistan and fight a few battles with the Soviet devils! ”

"That's a good idea!" Liang Lianbing responded and said: "It's better than us being angry here!" Maybe hit a dozen...... Those guerrillas knew that we were awesome, and they were willing to come to training! ”

"What a fart!" I scolded angrily: "Afghanistan is what you say you want to go?" Every hill there is occupied by Afghan guerrillas...... Where are you going? The guerrillas will still fight us as if we were grabbing territory! ”

As soon as I said that, the fighters were silent.

Originally, I thought that this task should be a matter of course...... Free equipment and training, plus first-line guidance...... What a haode thing! Who doesn't like to take advantage of such a big bargain.

But now it seems that things are not as simple as I thought.

"There's a place where you might be able to try it!" Chen Qiaoqiao, who had been silent, broke the silence.

"Where?" I asked.

"Refugee camp!"

"Hmm!" I couldn't help but be stunned when I heard this, and then nodded: "Maybe it's indeed a solution......

So I immediately asked Major Rana where the camp was.

"Refugee camps?" Lana looked at me strangely, "What are you going to do there?" ”

I smiled wryly and spread my hands: "Conscription...... Let's see if there are any Afghans willing to be trained by us! ”

"Little hope!" Lana shook his head.

“weishenme？” I couldn't help but ask, "Is it because the number of refugees is too small?" ”

"No...... The number of refugees in Peshawar has reached 100,000! ”

"That's ......"

"There is no such thing as a suitable man!" "Afghanistan has a backward economy, years of war, and corruption...... For Afghan youth, there are only two paths...... One is to be a soldier, the other is to sell drugs, otherwise you will have to go hungry, let alone feed your family! So...... The camp is mostly full of old people, women and children......"

"And where did those guerrillas come from?" I couldn't help but ask curiously.

"Some of them are drug dealers!" Rana said lightly: "Because the place where I lived was occupied by the Soviet Union, I had to organize guerrilla units...... Some of them were surrendered by government troops, and some of them were young people who drove the Soviets out......"

"Do you mean ......?" I asked Rana in disbelief, "that some of those guerrillas are drug dealers?" ”

"Of course!" Lana nodded: "Some troops...... One in three people are addicted to drugs! ”

I almost fainted when I heard this...... It's hard for me as a modern person to imagine such a thing, because I always felt that those things were far away from me, and that drug dealers and the like were going to commit felonies, but I didn't expect it to be everywhere......

But it's not strange to think about it, if you are poor, you want to change!

Afghanistan has been in turmoil due to years of war...... That industry can't develop or anything, agriculture...... In addition, because of drought and the destruction of the irrigation system by war, large areas of arable land have been turned into deserts.

There was neither industry nor agriculture...... What did the people eat? What is the source of income?

So, as Rana said, either as a soldier or a drug trafficker.

This may seem scary to us, but for the Afghans...... Maybe it's been a habit and it's become a common thing.

Therefore, it is true that the environment creates people, and if I had been born in this place, I might have the same concept as them.

Zuihou I could only sigh and say to Lana: "There is no other way, let's go to the refugee camp!" (To be continued......)
