Chapter 127: Defensive Measures

"My goal is to make the Soviet special forces lose their vitality at once!" I said, "Because of the trap...... Yes, it is impossible to fool the Soviet army once, but it is difficult to fool them a second time...... According to my observations on such a day, the words of the Soviet Alpha troops against a mortar position...... Usually only thirty people are dispatched! That is, two Mi-24 and three Mi-8...... But if we have a complete field fortification and two platoons cast in it...... These thirty people are obviously not enough! Even if it's enough...... If the Soviet army wants to lay down such a position, it is afraid that it will also suffer heavy casualties, which is intolerable for the Soviet special forces! ”

"But ......" Zhao Jingping questioned: "The Soviet special forces are all matched with helicopters...... The more special forces, the more helicopters, and the more difficult it will be for us to ambush! ”

"What if the helicopter doesn't work?" I say.

"Can't make a difference? How can it be! Zhao Jingping said: "The helicopter is on the head of the Soviet troops, and the coordination between them is also very close......

I interrupted Zhao Jingping's words and said, "Smoke bombs plus hand-to-hand combat!" ”

Zhao Jingping couldn't help but be stunned, but still shook his head and said: "The Soviet army has helicopter cover...... It was difficult to get close to the Soviets even with smoke bombs, so hand-to-hand combat ......"

"What if we were right next to the Soviet troops?" I asked.

"What does the battalion commander mean ......" It was only then that Zhao Jingping reacted: "Lurking around the position and waiting for the rabbit?" ”

"That's right!" I nodded, "This method might not have worked before...... After all, the Soviet special forces are not novices, and it is difficult for our lurking, especially the lurking of a large number of troops, to escape their eyes, but now ......"

"Now there's snow!" Zhao Jingping said.

"Yes!" I replied, "Because there is snow." It also snows a lot at night. So...... Just sneak into the position at night and lurk for a while...... Heavy snow will completely obscure our tracks. At that time, I believe that even the Alpha units of the Soviet Army will be difficult to find flaws! As long as they didn't find a flaw, they attacked the mortar positions as usual...... Then they will soon step into the ambush circle of our army, and then the two troops will be mixed up...... I'm afraid that the powerful firepower of the helicopter will be useless at all! ”

Hearing this, the instructor and Zhao Jingping couldn't help but be stunned for a long time, and after a while, Ha Lu Ha Da Lu laughed, nodded in unison and said, "No problem...... That's it! ”

The plan was quickly decided...... It is not difficult to do what I said, because the Soviets are now taking a steady offensive approach...... The advantage of this method is that it is safe, and it can also consume a lot of ammunition of our army while removing our mortar positions. But the downside is that it gives us too much time to react...... At this time, the Soviet army concentrated most of its air power on the first and last two valleys, and the rest of the middle valleys were basically no danger except for the harassment of a few helicopters.

So we can safely place bait in the mountains on both sides of Valley 2......

Of course, we did not explain to the partisans that it was bait...... Even Hassan's men didn't know what to do. So some people came to me with questions and suggestions...... For example, Apuchu believes that this seems to strengthen the defense of the mortar position, but in fact, it puts his own vitality under the enemy's aerial fire!

I am still very relieved to hear these objections...... Because it means that our tactical education in the valley of Chigio has worked, and the quality of a considerable number of talented partisans has been raised to a higher level!

Of course...... At this time, I couldn't be stupid enough to praise them, but told them a lot of things like "both offensive and defensive...... Anyway, there are a lot of these big truths, the question is just whether you can think of it!

Maybe it's because of the trust that the partisans put in us, or maybe maybe it's because of the eloquence of me and the instructors...... In the end, these people were persuaded by us with a half-believing attitude.

While breathing a sigh of relief, I was a little worried...... If they can imagine it, then the Soviet devils or the guys from the Vietnamese advisory group will not suspect it?

So I quickly made some changes to the plan......

It is to link the various mortar positions with each other...... That is, the mortar position not only provides artillery fire for the mountain pass, but also provides cover for the mortar positions within the surrounding range!

This is easier said than done...... The reason for this was that there were many mortar positions that were within range of each other but could not be seen. Therefore, it is necessary to establish communication with each other to provide each other with the coordinates of the enemy...... This requires a large number of communications equipment and a large number of artillery observers who can observe the coordinates...... There must be at least one mortar position in each position, otherwise even a dozen mortars around will not be able to provide fire to it!

Fortunately, we happen to have both of these things...... The communication equipment is a miniature walkie-talkie that was shipped with the 79 Sniper. At this time, the sniper unit no longer has to go out to shoot cold guns, so communication equipment is not so important to them for the time being.

As for the artillery observers...... During this time, we have trained a batch, although the quality is still uneven, there are often errors in the calculation and the speed is relatively slow, but it can still be used! In fact, there are some important positions, such as long-range 100mm mortars, which can cover many mortar positions around, so a Chinese soldier is arranged to go up.

Thereupon...... Our mortar positions are like a network, and if any mortar position is attacked, it will soon be covered by other mortar positions.

This was certainly effective for our defense, and it was open to the partisans...... I am sure that the hidden spies in the partisans will report both of our defenses to the ears of the Soviets...... There is no doubt about this, and at no time should we try to purge the moles in the Higio Valley, just as the Soviets could not purge the traitors in the Afghan government army!

The Soviets received information and looked at it...... This set of defenses really looked like that, so I believed it......

But what the Soviets didn't expect was ...... Our real defense is not really this, but the infantry who hide in the snow and wait for the Soviet special forces to step out of the helicopters......

By the time they realize this, it's too late! (To be continued......)
