A few days of rare silence followed, and the Soviets gave up the offensive as they said...... We know they did it as a last resort, but at least they delivered!

But I know that beneath this calm surface...... I don't know what kind of wind and waves are stirring up in the road, I think...... When the next wave comes, I am afraid that it will be even more terrible and cruel than before!

"The Soviets will not give up their offensive just now!" As I looked at the map, I said to the staff officers around me, "Although we did have a victory...... But the problem is that our victory is not universal, and simply put, it is a little trick to take advantage of the defenselessness of the Soviet army...... In fact, it is very simple for the Soviet army to solve our lurking, that is, to use mortars in front of the position in advance to bombard it once regardless of 3721, so that no matter whether there are people or mines hidden in the snow, they will be ploughed up again and there will be little left...... On the contrary, the Soviet army's style of play is universal, although the Alpha troops have been greatly damaged, but the Soviet army can also achieve similar results without the use of the Alpha troops with paratroopers, they just need a little time to carry out targeted combat training for the paratroopers...... Then it's time to go to battle! ”

"The battalion commander is right!" Zhao Jingping nodded and said, "I think this is also the real reason for the armistice of the Soviet army...... On the one hand, it gave the troops time to restore their morale, and on the other hand, they should step up the necessary training for paratroopers in battle...... We have fought Soviet paratroopers before, and their combat effectiveness cannot be underestimated, and more importantly, they have sufficient strength...... We can launch a large-scale campaign in the mountainous areas on both of our flanks and shift the focus of the attack to the mortar positions in the mountainous areas...... Since most of our anti-aircraft firepower is set up for the defense of the mountain pass, we are in a very passive situation in this battle! ”

Zhao Jingping said what I was sore about...... You must know that our anti-aircraft fire is all anti-aircraft machine guns and anti-aircraft artillery. And we used to place these things around the mountain pass...... That's not a problem. Because the mountain pass is definitely the top priority for the defense of the valley. In the past, the Soviet army also cooperated with helicopters and mechanized troops to gnaw hard at the mountain pass, so of course anti-aircraft fire should be deployed in this area.

But...... Who would have thought that the Soviet army would now not attack the mountain passes, but the mortar positions in the mountains...... So there was a gap in anti-aircraft fire for a while! The anti-aircraft machine gun was fine...... The problem is that the anti-aircraft machine gun basically does not play a role in dealing with Soviet helicopters, first, it is difficult to hit, and second, even if it hits, it cannot be penetrated......

As for the small-caliber anti-aircraft artillery...... Such a big guy can't transport it to the mountains for arrangement, and even if we have the ability to dismantle it and transport it to the mountains, we can't build a suitable tunnel for it to hide for a while...... Anti-aircraft artillery if not hidden. That's a great target for a helicopter!

"That means our danger hasn't been solved!" The instructor frowned and said, "It can even be said that the most dangerous moment has not yet come......"

"That's right!" I nodded: "There's a good chance we're going to face a tough battle...... A fierce battle like never before! Unless we can find a way to do it...... Blocking the Soviet army's method of uprooting our mortar positions point by point and encircling the mountain pass......"

"Battalion commander!" Just then, Hassan walked in and said to me with a strange face: "There is a Soviet...... who wants to see you."

"Nope!" I didn't want to, so I refused...... As a Chinese soldier, it is better to keep a low profile in this part of Afghanistan.

I said, "Go and tell him...... You've looked for it, but there's no such person! ”

"But......" Hassan replied with a sad face, "she said she knew you...... Zhilu said that your name is Yang Xuefeng, and let me tell you...... Her name is Eugenia! ”

"Eugenia?" When I heard the name, it only sounded familiar, and then I quickly remembered that she was the Soviet female prisoner I had escorted in Vietnam......

Then Zhao Jingping and I looked at each other...... How did she end up here? What are you doing here?

I don't know if it's because of curiosity or what...... We eventually decided to arrange a meeting.

Of course, I wouldn't be stupid enough to arrange for Eugenya to meet me at the battalion headquarters...... Jokes aside, Eugene is an enemy now, and I know that another popular tactic in modern times is decapitation...... Let her know where our battalion headquarters is, wouldn't that be for the Soviets to send helicopters and special forces to a decapitation operation!

On the other hand...... Because I was afraid that the Soviets would take advantage of my meeting with Eugenya to send a helicopter to carry out the assassination...... In other words, the Soviets often do this, just as they assassinated one Afghan prime minister after another who did not obey their "discipline".

So we scheduled the meeting for the night...... And also in a hut behind Pass No. 3...... It is difficult for Soviet helicopters to function at night, and on the other hand, there are enough troops and anti-aircraft fire at the mountain pass to deal with helicopters flying at night!

"It's really you!" As soon as she saw me, Eugenia exclaimed, "They told me it was when you were in command in the Higio Valley...... I can't believe it yet. The last time we met was in Vietnam, and this time we met in Afghanistan! ”

I smiled. said: "Didn't you say it...... Won't we be enemies? But we are still enemies! ”

Eugenia's face darkened, and she could see that she didn't want to see me in this situation......

"That's right!" I knew that it wasn't useful, so I changed the subject: "How did you get here?" ”

"You forgot I'm a translator?" Eugenia replied: "A few Vietnamese came a few times ago, so I ......"

Speaking of this, Eugenya suddenly realized that she had missed her words, and hurriedly stopped talking...... But I understood that the Vietnamese she was talking about were the Vietnamese advisory group...... With a Vietnamese advisory group, it is natural to have a trustworthy interpreter, otherwise important information is likely to flow into the hands of the enemy...... It seems that this Eugenya's trust in the Soviet army is not low!

"Battalion Commander Yang...... You're playing so well! Then Eugenia looked at me with a proud face and said, "At first, I didn't know it was you...... And said that who is so powerful, beating our powerful army so embarrassed, I didn't expect it to be you......"

"Say it!" I interrupted Eugenia impatiently, "What are they sending you for?" Persuaded to surrender? You know it's impossible! ”

Now she is my enemy...... I kept reminding myself in my heart! (To be continued......)
