Chapter 137: Avalanche

"Look ......," I said to a few people beside me, holding a kerosene lamp as I slowly moved along the course of the valley along the map, "on both sides of the valley...... Every once in a while, there is a high ground that is not too flat or too steep......"

"Yes...... But this ......" Zhao Jingping was a little confused: "Does this have anything to do with our defeat of the Soviet army?" ”

Even the instructor speculated: "Could it be that the battalion commander wants to use these high ground to garrison?" ”

"Of course not!" I laughed and said, "Isn't it snowing all this time?" Snow is a thing that has a special characteristic...... That is, it is particularly dangerous in places where the mountain is not too steep and not too flat. ”

Hassan, who has lived in Afghanistan for a long time, has experience with this and immediately replied: "Such a place is prone to avalanches!" ”

"Oh!" Zhao Jingping and others suddenly realized: "The battalion commander wants to create a big avalanche?" ”

"That's right!" I nodded: "If the mountain is too steep...... For example, if you are a cliff or a cliff, the snowflakes will not stop at all, or they will not be deposited before they have been deposited, and it is impossible for a heavy layer of snow to accumulate. If the mountain is too flat...... Then no matter how thick the snow is, an avalanche is not possible. The only ones are those with an inclination of about 40 degrees...... A large area of snow accumulates on top of it, and on the other hand, the snow itself tends to slide down due to its weight...... It was only because of the tension between the snow layers that it was balanced by the fact that there was no avalanche...... But what if we artificially break these tensions and create some faults or vibrations? ”

"Then the snow layer will break!" Zhao Jingping continued: "Then the top-down rush down will cause a chain reaction, and it will eventually rush into the valley like a flood!" ”

"That's right!" I said, "That's what I think...... Since we are now unable to compete with the Soviet army by manpower. Then let's use the power of nature! ”

After looking at the map and being silent for a long time, the instructor nodded and said, "I think this plan is feasible...... Because there are many such highlands on the top of mountain passes, if we grasp it well...... If a big avalanche can really be created, then the brunt of the Soviet army's arrangement in the mountain pass will be crushed...... We can retake the pass again without much effort! Thus creating new fighters for us! ”

"And ......," Zhao said, "the snow that washes down will also clog the pass...... This will not only cut off the supply lines of the Soviet army, but also divide the Soviet army into several pieces as they enter the valley...... The last time we were besieged by our army......"

"Yes, yes, yes......" the instructor nodded and said, "It's just that the last time it was artificial, but this time it relied on God's help." If this battle is over, I am afraid that the Soviets will not think of it...... They had the upper hand because of the snow season, but they also suffered another defeat because of the snow season...... It is the success and defeat of Xiao He! ”

Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but laugh!

Because time is of the essence...... We could only do it at night, and if we did it during the day, we would probably attract the attention of the Soviet helicopters, because we still had to load some explosives on the high ground. Plus, we have to take advantage of the fact that these heights are still in our hands...... Therefore, the plan was quickly implemented after it was delineated.

Our plan is a two-step process:

On the one hand, it is necessary to do a good job in the ideological work of the guerrillas as much as possible. Organize all the forces that can be organized, and unite all the troops that can be united...... Only in this way will we have enough troops to deliver a fatal blow to the Soviet army in the future!

I'm not too worried about that...... The reason is that I know that many of the guerrillas are masters of robbery, and I do not mean the guerrillas I control in the valley of Sigio. Rather, it is something else outside the valley...... Don't look at them now, they don't even have a shadow. That's because they know that now the Soviets are sharp. Their little strength could not compete with the Soviets head-on, so they hid far away......

However, if you know that the Soviet army has become a water dog. Then they really won't mind coming up and taking a few shots!

In other words...... That is, if they see that we have the strength and possibility to defeat the Soviet army, then it is very likely that there will be more and more partisans supporting us...... This may seem chilling to say, but that's the reality of the battlefield!

It's a bit like borrowing money, when you don't have money and you need it...... At this time, no one is willing to lend you money, for a simple reason...... I'm worried that there will be no return, and I can't see the benefits. When you have a lot of money and don't need to borrow...... There are often many followers who want to lend you money, and the reason is very simple...... There is not much risk, but the benefits are likely to be much greater than the risks!

So the important thing is the second point, that is, to create an avalanche that is enough to crush the Soviet army or greatly reduce the combat effectiveness of the Soviet army!

To do this...... There are two main difficulties, one is secrecy, and the other is detonation.

Needless to say, secrecy if the Soviets discover our intentions...... Then it will be impossible for the Soviet army to know that there are tigers in the mountains and prefer to go to the tigers, and they will first solve these possible threats before taking the next step.

And there are still many Soviet spies in our army who are hiding in the shadows and watching us...... As a result, even our battalion headquarters had to be changed from time to time and kept secret, otherwise it was very likely that we would be attacked by the Soviet air!

So...... The only thing we can fully trust now is the Chinese army, so the work of moving explosives and laying explosives is done by the soldiers of the special agent company!

Detonation is even more troublesome...... The reason for this is that the person who detonates the detonation must be on high ground, and there is a high probability that an avalanche will occur immediately after the detonation...... In other words, it is very likely that the person who detonated the detonation was on a suicidal mission.

Hassan means...... The work of detonating it could be done by him, but I thought about it...... I felt that this matter was not trivial, in case this matter was known by the spies and the information was transferred to the Soviet army, then the Xijieo Valley could really be said to be hopeless, so in the end it was decided to hand it over to the people of the special agent company to do it!

However, we will try to leave them with long wires to find a reliable refuge upstream of the avalanche...... For example, the entrance of the cave is not easy to be closed by snow or something, and several ambulance personnel are also arranged...... Remember this cave, if it's covered in snow, get the people inside out of the avalanche as quickly as you can! (To be continued......)
