Chapter 111: Peak Loop
"Yes!" The snipers lurking in the valley quickly answered, followed by the dull sound of gunfire and the nervous directions of observers from the walkie-talkies.
My heart was lifted...... Because I know it's a critical moment, once we manage to kill Aduzai...... Then the civil strife would soon be brought under control, and the guerrilla casualties would not increase.
But at the same time, I also know...... In this case, the chances of successfully killing Aduzai are very small, because the positions of snipers 13 and 14 are on the same side of the valley, and the snipers of 11 and 12 on the other side are not in sight...... This means that there are a lot of shooting spots in this sniper kill, if Aduzai is smart enough...... Just hide in this blind spot under the cover of the guards and wait for the armored car to pick you up!
As I expected...... After a while, the voice of a sniper was heard from the other end of the walkie-talkie: "Operation failed!" Repeat...... The operation failed, and the target has already boarded the armored car! ”
I sighed...... This means that both of us will continue to pay for casualties!
What worries me even more is ...... If this Xigio valley cannot be attacked for a long time, then wait for the Soviet army to recover...... will take advantage of this time to join forces with Aduzairi to destroy us!
Of course, this will have to wait at least until after dawn...... Night fighting has never been the strong point of the Soviets, and they will at least figure out the situation before going to war...... The Soviets were fooled by us again and again, which made the Soviet commanders quite cautious about us, plus we ambushed the Soviets in the direction of Heights 3519 before retreating...... He also shouted in the direction of the Soviet army: "This is a greeting from the head of Aduzai to you!" ”
This time the Soviet commander will "suddenly come to his senses"...... It turns out that this Aduzai's alliance with us is still fake. This ambush is simply a trap set by Aduzai!
So the alliance between the USSR and Aduzai naturally went into trouble...... The Soviet commander would have thought. Could the situation in the Higio Valley be another trap? Let's wait until dawn to figure out the situation!
Other words...... We will have at least one night to quell this rebellion. Originally, I thought that was enough time...... Because I have snipers in several valleys, there is always a time when I can snipe Aduzai on the battlefield after a few battles, but I didn't expect him to use armored vehicles......
I thought about it, but the movements of my hands did not stop...... With a wave of his hand, he directed the troops into the valley......
We were unable to quickly pursue Aduzai's and other deserters because they had laid many mines along the way to Pass No. 2...... Ironically, this qiē was taught by us to Aduzai, and even those mines were Chinese-made Type 69 anti-infantry jumping mines and Type 72 anti-infantry mines!
These mines, of course, pose no threat to us...... The soldiers were well aware of the construction and performance of the mines, and Aduzai and his party fled in a hurry. So these mines are too late to camouflage, so it is not difficult to line up.
It's just that this scene reminded the soldiers of the battlefield in Vietnam...... The Vietnamese also beat us with the weapons we supported them, and they also beat us with the tactics we taught them...... So I couldn't help but grit my teeth with hatred!
But let's be honest...... The current situation is still different from the battlefield in Vietnam, where the entire country of Vietnam was treacherous, and today in Afghanistan...... It is just that some of the guerrillas were instigated by people with ulterior motives and were used without knowing the truth.
Not to mention...... I also know that this is the case in Afghanistan at this time...... Even fighting within their guerrillas is a common thing, so what is the point of fighting a few battles with us foreigners?
We are demining all the way forward...... Of course, Aduzai's troops would not let us approach the No. 2 Pass so smoothly, and they arranged ambushes along the way, sometimes only a few people, sometimes as many as a platoon!
But it's a pity...... That's when the snipers I arranged on both sides played a big role. They hid in the shadows and reported to us the number and location of the enemy in real time, and even solved the ambush with a small number of people...... This made it very smooth for us to reach the No. 2 pass in just over half an hour.
The correct course of action should be to launch an attack on the No. 2 Pass immediately...... Aduzai is not a fool either. With the lesson of the No. 1 pass, of course they knew that we had done something to the fortifications, so ...... Anyone in their normal nature will ask the guerrillas to search for the explosives we have buried in the fortifications, and all we have to do is attack them before they have time to find them and dismantle them!
But just as I was about to give the order to attack, I heard a report from a sniper......
"Report from the 21st sniper position...... The armored car in which the target was riding left the No. 2 pass and was heading for the No. 3 pass! Repeat, target ......"
When I heard this, my heart sank...... This Aduzai, I didn't expect him to be so seedless, and he ran away before we could start beating him!
Or it can also be said that he is cunning enough, he is well aware of the gap between the combat effectiveness of the troops in his hands and our Chinese soldiers, and all he lacks is time...... As long as it is long enough, the Soviet side will certainly not sit idly by and ignore this situation, as long as the Soviet Union intervenes...... Then the balance of victory will soon tip in Aduzai's side.
Thereupon...... He is now exchanging space for time, retreating one by one, so that we can't fight and can't catch up...... You must know that this valley is more than 50 miles long with fifteen mountain passes...... According to our style of play, we are afraid that we will not be able to defeat it in two or three days, not to mention that the reason why we were able to capture the No. 1 mountain pass so quickly was entirely because there were explosives we had planted in advance!
My face couldn't help but change...... In the current form, I am afraid that only withdrawal is the best option. Otherwise...... Continuing to fight like this will not only greatly damage the vitality of the Xigio Valley, but also give the Soviet army a chance!
And yet at this moment...... Suddenly there was a dense burst of gunfire and explosions in the valley, followed by another shouting and shouting of killing!
I only heard the sniper's report from the walkie-talkie: "Battalion commander...... Pass No. 3 slaughtered a unit, drove three tanks, and a lot of Afghan guerrillas...... They surrounded Aduzai's armored car, it should be Aled's soldiers! (To be continued......)
