Under Zhao Jingping's arrangement, the work on the newly recruited literate Afghans was quickly arranged.

It's not that hard...... Because Saheed had conducted a meticulous investigation and established a file when he was recruiting, he only had to take out this file as soon as he took it out...... The name, age, place of origin, family background, cultural background, and even combat experience of each new member of the team are all clear at a glance...... What Zhao Jingping has to do is to classify the team members according to these files and materials, and decide which of them are suitable for directly entering the army to participate in the war, and which are suitable for staying in the rear as instructors.

Of course...... It's not as simple as it is to say, for example, to enter the army to participate in the war, and to consider whether it is suitable to enter the artillery unit or the mechanized unit...... For those with a more solid knowledge base, of course, it is to enter the artillery unit, which requires a lot of calculations and mapping, and for those who have some skills...... For example, in the past, the family car could drive, so there was no need to think about it...... Go drive an armored car or learn to drive a tank, some of which can repair machinery...... It just so happens that the maintenance of tanks and armored vehicles requires such talents.

Compared to this, the division of those old intellectuals is much simpler...... They are teachers, and most of them are old men, and some of them are young people who are not suitable for the battlefield because they have been injured...... They can't do anything, so it's good to just follow the cultural program...... The cultural program is taught in junior high school, and the middle level knowledge is taught in one place.

As for this advanced knowledge...... We soldiers really don't need to know such advanced knowledge...... Our goal is to be able to fight and use modern equipment, right? Even if you learn to understand the theory of relativity, it's useless!

Therefore, the knowledge we teach is actually very small, and the scope is relatively narrow...... The first thing to do is to learn simple mathematics and teach the partisans to calculate. The intermediate ones are a bit more complicated. It also covers a wide range of areas...... For example, there are against artillery. There are against anti-aircraft guns. There are also for tanks.

For the training of these courses, we generally take two forms: compulsory and free...... Compulsory means that everyone has to go to the elementary class, and everyone has to pass...... If you don't pass, get out, anyway, there are a lot of people out there who want to squeeze in.

Of course, this ideological and political lesson every night is also a must...... In the past, when I was in China, I thought that this kind of course was not much necessary, but now when I am in command of a unit, I realize that this course is really unnecessary...... Let's talk about this course, to say that the great point is to build a thinking army, and to say that the popular point is to brainwash.

But no matter what the language is, for an army to understand what can be done and what cannot be done. In which direction should we go, and what should we do to our comrades, the enemy, and the masses...... It's all a must.

Especially like the Afghan guerrillas...... Originally, they belonged to various forces, and they were not used to that state of great unification...... Although the troops of 4 or 5,000 people are not a big unification for our Chinese, they are already considered to the Afghan guerrillas...... It is very difficult to find a guerrilla group of more than four or five thousand people in Afghanistan without internal divisions.

Therefore, only by constantly instilling in them the idea of taking the Hijeo Valley as a whole, and then spreading this whole to the whole of Afghanistan, uniting the people and forces of the whole of Afghanistan, and finally driving out the aggressors, can the contradictions and barriers of their various forces be gradually diluted.

This can also be said to be a supplement to eliminate the disputes between the various forces and to reduce the power of the weak and small leaders and concentrate the power...... What was done before was formal and external, but now it is ideological and internal!

With our efforts to fight from inside and outside, I believe that the guerrillas in the Higio Valley will soon change the situation of infighting. Form a powerful force against the Soviet army!

As for freedom...... Refers to the intermediate course.

Despite the low level of education of the Afghan guerrillas, there are many of them who are diligent and eager to learn...... They didn't study before. That's because there is no opportunity to learn...... The family is so poor that they can't open the pot, and after eating this meal, there is no next meal, where is there still the heart and conditions to study...... For them, it was a luxury to stay in the classroom and sit and read.

But that's no longer the case...... Eat and dress in this valley of Sigio...... We have our logistical resources to provide it; And then there's the free school...... We provide them with teachers and classrooms (classrooms are actually larger houses, and most of the residents of the Shijio Valley have moved to Pakistan, so there are a lot of houses to use).

So what could the partisans expect? Besides, learning these skills is still better to fight the Soviet invaders, and at the same time, you can increase your chances of surviving on the battlefield...... So what's the reason not to work hard?

As a result, a considerable number of partisans will voluntarily ask to enter the intermediate course after completing the elementary course...... And they still have a great appetite, they want to learn both mortars and anti-aircraft guns and tactics......

We don't refuse to come to this part of the studious people, as long as you want to learn, it's no problem...... They are free to choose between these courses, but they can only learn one at a time, and only after passing one can they learn another...... This is mainly to prevent some people from having too much appetite and grasping a little bit of everything but not doing anything, and on the other hand, it is also to avoid affecting normal training.

Let's be honest...... What is on the battlefield will never make much money, and sometimes it is even necessary for some troops to ...... anything For example, special forces, they must be able to fight any weapon they grab, and they must be able to drive any vehicle or tank.

Of course, there are some Afghan guerrillas who belong to that kind of mess...... If you don't want to learn anything, you can live one day at a time, so that's fine...... As long as this part of the people knows how to shoot and learn to obey orders and obey military discipline, this kind of person is also needed on the battlefield to fight face-to-face with the Soviets on the front line.

It is worth mentioning ...... We have also set up an officer class, which is specifically designed to train grassroots commanders, just like a military academy.

Needless to say, what this class learns is squad and platoon tactics, battalion and company tactics, and the like...... For the object of training, all the cadres, that is, the leaders of the various forces, must participate, join some who have a cultural foundation, and then join some who voluntarily come in to study because of interest...... Those leaders who can't learn well are waiting to be eliminated! (To be continued......)
